Europe is following Obama – washing its hands of Palestine and why

The USA keeps using North Korea as the bogey man, but the really dangerous bogey man is Israel. The International Community opened Pandora’s Box and now they have put the whole World in danger of a nuclear Armageddon.

My headline is a response to recent comments made by German Chancellor Angela Merkel at a joint press conference in Berlin with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the decision of the Cameron government in the UK to make boycotting goods from “Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank” by publicly-funded bodies including local councils and universities a criminal offence.

Much to the delight of Netanyahu who has rejected a French initiative to convene a regional conference to try to get a peace process going, Merkel said,

Greens unpack IKEA tax dodge scam

Unfortunately, the British Public is being betrayed by companies like IKEA.  As the taxes they avoid paying, could be going towards the NHS, Education and Social Services.  Also, by avoiding paying taxes, they are able to undercut competition, especially from small UK firms.  It is a depressing state of affairs, especially when the tax-paying poor, are struggling to make ends meet.  And people behind the likes of IKEA, Google, Facebook, Amazon, Starbucks and others, just get richer!

Expel Apartheid Israel from the United Nations

It is totally abhorrent that the the fledgling United Nations awarded Zionist terrorist groups a state of their own.  Which the fledgling state then, carried out acts of genocide of the rightful occupants of the land, Palestinians, whether Jewish, Christian and Muslim.  And has continued ignoring all International Laws and ignored United Nation mandates.  Palestine should be restored to the state it was, before the abhorrent actions of the United Nations.  The United Nations, has only been a mouth-piece of the USA.  Any minor nation disagreeing with waht the USA wants, is bullied.  By USA imposed sanctions, currency devaluation and even military take-overs of their Governments.  Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria being recent examples.

Terror, climate chaos, financial crisis are the costs of ‘doing business’

Unfortunately, Portugal, like the UK, is still pursuing a fossil fuel future, despite agreeing to the COP21 Paris agreement.  The Portuguese government has even granted oil and gas producers licenses to drill, onshore and offshore the Algarve.  Even though the area is part of Natura2000, is dependent of fishing, agriculture and tourism.  Even with a (so-called) Socialist coalition government, it looks like drilling will go ahead.  Instead of investing in energy efficiency and renewables!  Though there are groups such as the Algarve Surfers and Marine Activities Association (ASMAA), fighting these proposals.

The techno-narcissism of predatory neoliberal capitalism is locked into an endless war with the bastard monster of its own creation – Islamic State

Asking a Question, the Challenge open to us all

We have gone back in time, to a period similar to that written about by Robert Tressell in ‘The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists!  And yet, we are now in the 21st Century.  How has this been allowed to happen, where are the opposition political parties?

Upper Tribunal says ALL bedroom tax decisions unlawfully determined

Manchester City Council (100% Labour) constantly complains about Central Government, whilst it is happy to unlawfully enact the bedroom tax.  Putting many Manchester residents into deeper poverty and even homelessness.  Manchester is one of the most deprived cities in the UK, with the lowest life-expectancy for males.  And all Manchester City Council is concerned about, is throwing money at the usual property developers, like Urban Splash and Ask Development

‘NYT’ and ‘NYRB’ publish important pieces on Jewish terrorism

The New York Times and New York Review of Books have published big important pieces describing Jewish terrorism in Israel and its occupied territories, but both pieces are romantic, and propose to save Zionism and Israel from this inherent element.
