“Rising Tensions within OPCW”

by Kit Knightly

Eric van de Beek “Tensions within OPCW are rising”, says Russian envoy at OPCW, Alexander Shulgin. The suppression by the chemical weapons watchdog of its own engineers report on the alleged chemical attack in Douma “is only another detonator which could unleash the explosive trends in our organisation.” On April 14, 2018, the US, France, …

Kollibri terre Sonnenblume The US-supported right-wing coup against Bolivian President Evo Morales on November 10th was a serious strike against that nation’s autonomy and its people (especially its indigenous, of whom Morales was one). Such meddling has defined US foreign policy in Latin America for nearly two centuries, since the Monroe Doctrine of 1823. “Same …

GE2019 Reveals True Purpose of “Antisemitism” Smear Campaign

by Kit Knightly

Why are Labour MPs upset at the idea of being in power? Why didn't notionally "liberal" or "progressive" columnists cheer on the idea of removing Britains "hard right" government? Because the only alternative is Jeremy Corbyn, and a whole raft of policies they pretend to support, but would never vote for.

WATCH: Banking Nature

by Catte Black

Did you know an entire banking system is evolving that deals with something even less real than fiat-money? That buys up land on which - allegedly - endangered creatures live and then sells the 'credits' it gives itself for 'saving' this land as offsets to other businesses - so they have what amounts to a licence to pollute and destroy?

The Metamorphosis of the Deep State

by Kit Knightly

Edward Curtin It gets funny, this shallow analysis of the deep state that is currently big news. There’s something ghoulish about it, perfectly timed for Halloween and masked jokers. What was once ridiculed by the CIA and its attendant lackeys in the media as the paranoia of “conspiracy theorists” is now openly admitted in reverent …

WATCH: Days of Judgement: Salem Witch Trials

by Editor

The salem witch Trials stand as a warning that justice can always be miscarried, when authorities become determined to prosecute non-conformists, “deviants”, or political enemies. And especially when the general population supports these efforts. Brian Levack Between 1692 and 1693, in the small township of Salem, Massachusetts, over 200 people were accused of Witchcraft. Twenty …

Golden Rice: GM Silver Bullet that Misses the Target

by Editor

Promoters of genetic modification (GM) in agriculture have long argued that genetically engineered Golden Rice is a practical way to provide poor farmers in remote areas with a subsistence crop capable of adding much-needed vitamin A to local diets. Meanwhile, critics say there are serious issues with Golden Rice and that alternative approaches to tackling vitamin A deficiency should be implemented.

@OffGuardian0 @HonHonHonHon Understatement there. They want Lab/LD pact in which JC can be removed.

Bizarre that so few on the left noticed the rapid switch from "hate Corbyn" to "hate Johnson" (and they play along), though latterly "hate Corbyn" ... has made a comeback.

Frank Lee Such was the response to any of those who questioned what was happening to the animal revolution which had expropriated the farmer (Jones) and set up the animal republic with its own green flag complete with the design symbols of hoof and horn. As with most revolutions, however, this one could not deliver on its promises; after the initial euphoria of Jones’ overthrow, the charismatic stage of the animal insurrection became transformed into an inevitable period of consolidation and legal-rational authority, with the pigs, who were the new rulers, now firmly in control.
