    You still hold out hope regarding politicians and “democracy”, kaysee? When we acknowledge it’s a uniparty ultimately controlled by globalists playing off groups of people off against each other?

    We learnt about the Great Reset plans during Covid. But October 7 has revealed to the whole world a deeper agenda. It has sorted the ones who really believe in freedom and free speech from those who don’t. Politicians, media, so-called free speech believers and advocates, the real world controllers.

    What is happening in Britain, the US Elections, elsewhere, all connected.

    We have to keep sharing what we know – the truth vs the media fiction – for as long as we have a real free speech platform.

    This report is from B’Tselem, so it is likely an objective source.

    B’Tselem is The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories. It strives for a future in which human rights, liberty and equality are guaranteed to all people, Palestinian and Jewish alike, living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea

    Welcome to Hell

    “Welcome to Hell” is a report on the abuse and inhuman treatment of Palestinians held in Israeli custody since 7 October 2023. B’Tselem collected testimonies from 55 Palestinians held during that time and released, almost all with no charges. Their testimonies reveal the outcomes of the rushed transformation of more than a dozen Israeli prison facilities, military and civilian, into a network of camps dedicated to the abuse of inmates as a matter of policy. Facilities in which every inmate is deliberately subjected to harsh, relentless pain and suffering operate as de-facto torture camps

    There’s a myth in the US that Israel is a victim. That’s deliberately cultivated by the Israelis. But they in fact are the provocateur. Israel united—for the first time in 1400 years—Sunni and Shia against a common enemy.

    Can the world tolerate a government like that in Israel that seems to be willing to conduct any criminal, despicable, degenerate, indecent act against human beings who are not Jewish? The Netanyahu government is pushing Israel into the abyss. If you don’t communicate the way the official narrative goes, you’re toast.

    The GOP is not interested in getting the best candidates to win against the Dems. It is about personal vendettas against those who do not kiss the boots vs rewarding those who are sycophants.

    This is the endorsement criteria. And Maga will do as told.

    Remember when Piers got this upset by people refusing to take the covid vaccine. When he called them all potential murderers

    He was one of the worst. Claimed he was following The Science and then The Science changed. Find it hard to look at or listen to him.

    I find the confrontational format annoying on Piers’ show, so rarely view it.

    I did listen to all of that episode however.

    Summary:
    Piers thought he nailed Tate by forcing him to answer certain questions, but Tate then responds with a more relevant point. So I give the W to Andrew and the L to Piers.

    Example, Tate after some cajoling says he personally does believe that you are British if you are born in Britain.
    Piers then thinks he won the argument and moves on, but Tate then says it doesn’t matter what his own views are, the point is there are a huge number of Britons that don’t hold that view. Tate says dismissing their views is the problem.

    Councillor arrested over counter-protest remarks

    Suspended Labour councillor Ricky Jones has been arrested on suspicion of encouraging murder after comments at a London counter-protest.

    Videos had emerged online reportedly showing Mr Jones telling a crowd in Walthamstow that far right demonstrators needed to have their throats cut.

    A Labour spokesperson said: “This behaviour is completely unacceptable and it will not be tolerated.”

    Mr Jones, and Dartford’s newly elected Labour MP Jim Dickson, have been approached for comment.

    On Thursday, the Metropolitan Police said a man in his 50s had been arrested in south east London on suspicion of encouraging murder and for an offence under the Public Order Act. He remains in custody.

    In video that has circulated on social media, a man at the rally was filmed apparently saying: “They are disgusting Nazi fascists and we need to cut all their throats and get rid of them all.”

    Reform leader Nigel Farage had called on X for Dartford councillor Mr Jones to be arrested.

    Mr Jones, who has represented the Princes ward since 2019, will be unable to sit on the Labour benches at Dartford Borough Council meetings.

    The only piece of the Paris Olympics I have wanted to see is the performance of the Australian known as Raygun in the ‘breakdancing’.

    Unfortunately it appears to be so tragic and awful that it is banned on the internet.

    The routine was broadcast on the free to air news. I am sure she had a lot of fun and a trip to Paris without any expectation of scoring a medal.

    However, if she had been able to claim aboriginal heritage, the routine would have been applauded as traditional culture.

    Israel committed ‘new crime against humanity’ in school attack: Turkey

    The Turkish Foreign Ministry has released a statement condemning Israel’s dawn attack on a prayer hall at al-Tabin school in Gaza City, which was sheltering hundreds of displaced Palestinians.

    It said that Israel is responsible for “massacring” more than 100 civilians who had taken refuge in the school.

    “This attack demonstrates once again that the Netanyahu government intends to sabotage the negotiations for a permanent ceasefire,” the statement continues.

    “International actors who do not take steps to stop Israel are complicit in Israel’s crimes.”

    Nil points, but in the running for AOTY

    Via AP

    Rachael Gunn, or “b-girl Raygun,” a 36-year-old professor from Sydney, Australia, quickly achieved internet fame, but not necessarily for Olympic-level skill. Competing against some b-girls half her age, she was swept out of the round-robin stage without earning a single point, and her unconventional moves landed flat while failing to match the skill level of her foes.

    At one point, Gunn raised one leg while standing and leaned back with her arms bent toward her ears. At another, while laying on her side, she reached for her toes, flipped over and did it again in a move dubbed “the kangaroo.”

    Gunn has a Ph.D. in cultural studies, and her LinkedIn page notes she is “interested in the cultural politics of breaking.”

    “I was never going to beat these girls on what they do best — their power moves,” said Gunn. “What I bring is creativity.”

    Courier Mail has a lengthy article not paywalled

    ‘Travesty’: How the Olympics’ breaking farce was allowed to happen

    https://www.couriermail.com.au/sport/olympics/travesty-how-the-olympics-breaking-farce-was-allowed-to-happen/news-story/b6ff855d78232f4e6d7da82e7475bc64

    … Breaking will not be returning for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles – and Brisbane Olympic officials will get the ultimate say on whether the sport will be resuscitated in eight years’ time.

    Judging on the largely scathing reviews of Gunn’s performance, the sport’s hopes of ever returning to the Olympics are the same as the Aussie’s score after three “battles” at the La Concorde Urban Park. Zero.

    It is obvious, however, that Gunn’s deliberately daggy lawn bowls ensemble, kangaroo hops and sprinkler moves are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to explaining how this trainwreck charged to its doom.…

    The FDA’s War Against Sleep

    Why There Isn’t a Cure for Insomnia

    In 1964, a sleeping medication hit the market that was remarkably effective for a variety of conditions (including insomnia) and hence profoundly improved the health of its recipients. Because it threatened so many different drug markets, once it reached America in 1990, the FDA in collusion with the media launched a ten-year take down of it, which in many regards was almost identical to what they did to ivermectin. It was successful, and very few people are even aware that this drug exists or that the many of sleeping disorders we face are easily treatable.

    Cancer doctors in Brazil plane crash

    They were en route to a cancer conference called SBTMO.

    They determine what is deemed real or fake in that field of cancer research. If a treatment or cure is proposed, they decide if it is accredited, which ultimately determines whether it can be used.

    … We started seeing a series of children, preteens mostly, who’d been shot in the head. They’d go on to slowly die, only to be replaced by new victims who’d also been shot in the head, and who would also go on to slowly die. Their families told us one of two stories: the children were playing inside when they were shot by Israeli forces, or they were playing in the street when they were shot by Israeli forces. …

Sort of reminiscent of the Titanic “conspiracy theory”, and others… how many events in history are really as presented to us?
