offsite link The Blob Has Sunk to New Depths in Its Quest to Destroy Educational Freedom Thu Feb 06, 2025 19:00 | Randall Hardy
The Blob has sunk to new depths in its quest to destroy educational freedom. No wonder, says Randall Hardy. It's only the right to withdraw children from the state system that restrains its worst indoctrinating tendencies.

Read a short book 'Zen Of Global Transformation' - it's free on http://www.QuayLargo.com and you will see that the solution to world problems has been invented many times. The problem is for PEOPLE TO AGREE ON ONE! There will be NO change in the world unless people involve themselves in solving LOCAL issues. And look at how local issues effect global issues - e.g. do you own shares in plc's? If so you are contributing to Elite Domination / genocide / environmental destruction etc. It's done in the name of making you a profit, of providing you with a pension. ... read full story / add a comment

"Timing is everything when you do this. If you launched [a public campaign] too far in advance and nothing followed, that would raise questions and fuel a debate that would not be helpful to the administration...If you join the debate now, but don't act for months, you pay a worse price."

1999 Cork Sinn Fein local election candidate Michael Nugent, Sinn Fein Passage West member Sean Kind, Youghal Sinn Fein member Kieran Kiely and Walter Nagle were convicted today in the Special Criminal Court of possesing firearms (THREE LOADED HANDGUNS) in Mitchelstown last year. Is this part of Sinn Feins' support for the Gardai , army and the State? Is it part of their commitment to non-violent means? Maybe Sinn Fein could let the rest of us know is it compulsory for their membership to receive arms training. Will these four be disowned by SF like the former Ard Chamhairle member Jim Monaghan and Connolly their Cuba rep? Or just forgotten like the Limerick IRA unit in Gaol for killing Gerry McCabe? Only time will tell. You cannot have it both ways calling on us plebs to support the police and state and at the same time running around with guns. ... read full story / add a comment

The Roman Church is not the only religious cult, which has been hiding its crimes from the naive public! The International Born Again Christians - is a rt-wing US founded, funded and maintained cult with lots of secrets! The Born Agains have socalled counsellors in most Irish counties, and has lots of ties with government health depts! You dont know what is really happening under your very noses! It is unaccountable and is NEVER scrutinised or investigated. ... read full story / add a comment

Blair's Labour government have been busy pushing their PFI strategy even though most studies of it show it to be inefficient and cost ineffective for all the UK projects. George Monbiot's piece explains that PFI's enduring popularity is because British based companies are, on the basis of the lie that PFI has worked in Britain, busy swindling other countries and bringing the loot back home to the UK. ... read full story / add a comment
