offsite link The WHO Cares More About Pushing Experimental Vaccines Than Basic Sanitation and That?s a Problem Thu Feb 27, 2025 18:00 | Dr David Bell
The WHO once aimed to help nations stand on their own two feet, but now it mainly pushes the agendas of the rich and powerful, says Dr David Bell. That's why it cares more about experimental vaccines than basic sanitation.

Is Rishi Sunak English? Prof Eric Kaufmann says yes, by nationality, but not by ethnicity. It's a subject that typically produces more heat than light, but that's because people don't pin down their terms.

We are at a critical moment. Ever more people are coming to the view that Net Zero is a terrible idea. But the Government is clinging to it at all costs. A new film seeks to puncture the groupthink.

On Good Friday, six vine- and figtree planters were arrested after planting an orchard at the Ericsson Microwave arms factory in Mölndal [just south of Gothenburg]. The planters came from The Church of Sweden, the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden and the Swedish Fellowship of Reconciliation. They planted a vine by the fence, then climbed over and continued the planting of figtrees and vines on a green area by one of Microwave’s buildings. At the same time as a conversation between guards and planters was initiated, the vine- and figtree planting continued.
“We have read the prophet Micah’s vision that each of us should sit under his vine and his figtree, and nobody should threaten him. As Christians, we believe that the prophet’s visions are something we must begin to live here and now, and not wait passively,” says Klaus Engell. “The planting is a way to connect our Christian faith to our resistance to injustices.”

national / anti-war / imperialism / other press Sunday April 16, 2006 19:50 by Silvia Cattori
Tel-Aviv and Washington are linked in the Middle East. That's a fact. But the importance of this link in Washington's colonial politics is being debated in the anti-imperialist movement. For the US, Jewish, anti-Zionist journalist Jeffrey Blankfort, Israeli influence is central to US policy and the anti-war movement has failed because of its inability to understand the importance of this lobby. Having developed a radical approach to this question, going so far as to deny the energy factor in the war in Iraq, Mr. Blankfort nonetheless opens interesting paths on Zionist influence in the United States. We reproduce an interview he gave to journalist Silvia Cattori. read full story / add a comment

Taken from th BNP website..

After a couple of years of torpor the BNP is finally getting itself together in Ulster. Just two weeks ago Regional Organiser Kieran Dinsmore met with new members and old hands alike in Bangor, Co. Down to discuss a campaign of activities to boost the presence and electoral appeal of the Party across the province.

Against a backdrop of the Peace Process stalemate and an unprecedented amount of immigration of workers from Eastern Europe and asylum seekers from three continents the Ulster political scene is ripe for the British National Party. Loyalties to the old established parties based on religious sectarianism are breaking down and the people of Ulster across both communities are looking for radical new ideas, hope and above all real answers in an uncertain and rapidly changing world.

What is worse is the element of trust that is breached. Why do people do such things to other people. Is the motive purely money or is there a hidden inadequacy and jealousy with them.

Has anyone ever been conned? Years ago when there was less access to media and press coverage there was a kind of human connection network that kept people informed and warned.

"In a very real sense, Ruairí Ó Bradáigh can . . . be said to be the last, or one of the last Irish Republicans. Studies of the Provisional movement to date have invariably focused more on the Northerners and the role of people like Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness. But an understanding of them is not possible without appreciating where they came from and from what tradition they have broken. Ruairí Ó Bradáigh is that tradition and that is why this account of his life and politics is so important."
