Climate Change Giving Meaning to Life Fri Jan 17, 2025 15:13 | Dr James Allan
Why are climate alarmists so impervious to facts, so averse to rational cost-benefit analysis? It has all the hallmarks of a religious cult, says James Allan. They can't let it go because it gives meaning to their lives.

Gaza : "The world's largest prison that the Israelis have thrown away the key to" (Michael Dugard, UN envoy to the Middle East)
Treasa N1 Cheannabain, from the Galway Palestine Solidarity Campaign on a humanitarian mission to besieged Gaza with daughter, Naisrin, is now trapped there by the Israelis; in that dark valley of suffering that Michael Dugard has called the worlds largest prison, Married to Egyptian, the courtly Dr. Al-Safti, Treasa and daughter availing availing themselves of the window of opportunity provided by demolishment of the Apartheid Wall at the Rafah Crossing by Hamas two weeks ago, entered Gaza with funds for humanitarian purposes, to alleviate the endless suffering deriving from the collective punishment visited on that Golgotha by criminal Israel.
 Treasa in center with daughter, Naisrin, behind her pictured at a recent GAAW anti-war/ Gaza solidarity protest in Eyre Square, Galway. On Radio 1 news this morning, Treasa revealed that whilst the ongoing, unacceptable situation was trying to be resolved though diplomatic means, her mission was'nt knocked out of kilter and she was busy visiting Palestinian hospitals and institutions caring for the humanitarian needs of the Gazans dispensing the funds.
Naisrin and Treasa, similiar to the plight of anti-war activist and strong friend of Palestine, Mary Kelly, in the Israeli siege of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem in 2002, are still trapped there, with the Israelis refusing them egress.
In a text message to Niall Farrell of GAAW, she confirmed that both Naisrin and herself are unharmed and in good spirits.
