“We’re not breaking the law; what we’re doing is actually rooted in law; it is a lawful act to do something to prevent the greater crime — to act to save lives.” — Huda Ammori, Palestine Action
Earlier this week, rapper Lowkey joined campaigners on the streets of Oldham as they protested at the Elbit Ferranti weapons factory located in the northern English town.
While the post-industrial town of 96,000 people might not seem like a likely flashpoint for the Israel-Palestine conflict, many of the weapons used against the civilian Palestinian population are actually manufactured there by the Israeli arms corporation.

Since the beginning of the health crisis, the French government has claimed that early treatment was ineffective. It has imposed major restrictions on our freedoms, in particular on doctors’ prescriptions,[1]
It has also promised that vaccination would achieve collective immunity, the end of the crisis and a return to normal life.
But the failure for 18 months of this so-called “health strategy” based onfalse simulations, innumerable lies, promises never kept, as well as the propaganda and fear campaign has become unbearable.
In turn this has been followed bythe extortion of consentto be vaccinated, by outright blackmail, while curtailing our freedoms to move and socialize, our right to work and engage in leisure activities.
“Cases of human rights violations in Turkey in September included 207 deaths and 224 incidents of torture or maltreatment, according to the monthly Rights Violations Report prepared by human rights defender and opposition deputy Sezgin Tanrıkulu, the Mezopotamya news agency reported on Saturday.
September saw 26 femicides, 175 worker deaths, three people dying behind bars and three children killed by military vehicles, Tanrıkulu, a main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) lawmaker who also serves as deputy chairman of the parliamentary Human Rights Committee, said”. …/ continues below
INSERT: Sezgin Tanrıkulu is a key adviser in the Republican People’s Party (CHP) and runs a TV channel that challenges government crimes..Up to a point. The CHP for example supported the Turkish ‘right’ to unleash terrorist attacks and occupations in Syria and Iraq.
Sezgin’s monthly report is a brave effort and he may well die for it. However it cannot address the issues of mass repression of Kurds, Gulen supporters, LGBTQ people, Armenians, refugees, women in general, leftists, anarchists and various other minorities.

“Also in September Turkish authorities launched investigations into 12 members of the press; nine journalists were detained and four were arrested, Tanrıkulu said, adding that four press members were attacked in September.
“Turkish police intervened in at least 16 demonstrations, public press statements and gatherings last month, detaining 253 people, launching investigations into 13.

A total of 202 incidents of maltreatment took place during public events in which the police violently intervened, the report said.
In Sept 2021 twenty-two incidents of torture or maltreatment were recorded in prisons, where rights violations also included denial of medical treatment, deprivation of basic needs including food, beds and warm water, and the forced transfer to other prisons, according to the report.”
“Guff, bluster and bullshit are set to exceed the expected emissions by a significant amount, meaning we can reroute the hot air into billions of homes,” confirmed official sources.
The jet-setting conference will NOT just be a shameless and craven display by corrupted leaders who continue to fail in making large-scale changes to avert climate catastrophe.
“Say what you want about willfully destroying our only planet because we’re financed by Big Oil, but at least we can do something good with all that hot air now,” added the scientist.
“Look here, we will meet all our targets by 2070” observed one accredited expert of either Australia, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Russia, the USA or a dozen other countries.
Here in Waterford, one prominent local man declared he was very much pro-averting years of avoidable climate disasters killing millions of people. Until some dickhead climate protester blocked traffic and delayed him for nearly 30 minutes

(real report) Private jets flying to COP26 will emit more CO2 than 1600 Scots pump out in a year
More than 400 private jets carrying world leaders and business executives to Cop26 will blast 13,000 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere, the Sunday Mail revealed. The flights – which will produce more global warming gas than 1600 Scots burn through in a year – have been branded “rank climate hypocrisy” .
The Pentagon seems to have gone even more insane with rage after losing to the Taliban. . And they have a $750 BILLION dollar a year budget plus the military of 30 NATO states to unleash their evil War Crimes against Humanity and the Planet.
German caretaker defence minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer said that Moscow should be aware NATO is ready to make use of its nuclear deterrent, triggering strong reactions in Russia
Ukraine, a bankrupt neo-fascist controlled state on Russia’s border is being quickly assimilated into NATO and armed to the teeth .. on the back of its war fever fanned by an ultra nationalist elite desperate to cling to power.
Ukraine is lauded by NATO and the EU while openly calling for suicidal Nuclear attacks on Russia under the US doctrine of ‘limited Nuclear Exchanges’ and battlefield nuclear weapons, for ‘stealing its tiny Crimea colony’.
Have they forgotten that the USSR lost over 27 MILLION citizens the last time nazis attacked them. For Russia this is SURVIVAL. They CAN NOT allow the US to put nuclear missiles on their borders, just a few minutes flight time to Moscow.
They will have no choice but to resist.
And all for what?Imagine if it was Russia putting its Nukes on the Canadian or Mexican borders, claiming the US had stolen Puerto Rico. The Pentagon planners are insane, are they suffering from Covid Brain Fog?
And all for what? What exactly is the Russian threat to us? The Russian economy is smaller than that of France or Italy. Russia is home to 183 nationalities! Should we all die for tiny Crimea because Ukraine claims “the referendum to join Russia was rigged.” Really?
Who cares! Let the Russians have Crimea, they only have 2 or 3 exterior military bases while the US has hundreds! They actually gifted administration of Crimea to Ukraine anyway, when they were both in the USSR. It’s majority Russian nowadays, 15% Tartars…
Who cares which one controls it? Should we all die in a Nuclear holocaust because crazy Stalin expelled the Crimean Tartars in 1945, because they ‘helped Hitler kill 20 million Russians??’ Or because the ‘Tartars are Turkic’ and Turkey is in NATO!?
What a black joke… And all these NATO committees and allies conferences are just a farce, NATO is and always has been ruled by 100% undemocratic US military power. Is Afghanistan or Libya in the North Atlantic?
The US Military has thousands of Nuclear missiles capable of burning us and our families alive, many times over, in just a matter of hours. Why should we force a mutual suicide war with Russia while the Pentagon planners retreat to their secure luxury bunkers ? Just because the Taliban won? Or because Putin sold off Russia’s US dollars and defended Syria?
The Russian government deplored recent threats from German Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer of the possible use of nuclear weapons to contain Moscow.
“Now they have turned to the Black Sea region, we are observing activity on the territory of Bulgaria and Romania. They have already turned the Baltic Sea into an arena of military rivalry, and they are now intending to turn the Black Sea into an arena of military confrontation.This is an extremely dangerous path, fraught with the risk of military incidents and escalation,” he said.

NATO HQ: Ukraine to join NATO, build new naval bases in Azov, Black Seas
The U.S. embassy in Ukraine was cited yesterday as confirming that “U.S. Navy Porter and Donald Cook depart[ed] the Black Sea following 17 days of operations alongside NATO Allies and partners: Ukraine, Romania, Georgia, Turkey.”
Every corner of society is failing to take the “transformational change” needed to avert the most disastrous consequences of the climate crisis, with trends either too slow or in some cases even regressing, according to a major new global analysis.
Across 40 different areasspanning the power sector, heavy industry, agriculture, transportation, finance and technology, not one is changing quickly enough to avoid 1.5C in global heating beyond pre-industrial times, a critical target of the Paris climate agreement, according to the new Systems Change Lab report.
The dangerously sluggish pace of decarbonization, made plain just days before the start of crucial UN climate talks in Scotland, further highlights how the world is badly off track in its attempts to curb climate breakdown.
On November 5, 2020, Lina was kidnapped by the police and taken into custody on charges of “having formed and being part of a criminal organization” (Bildung und Mitgliedschaft einer kriminellen Vereinigung).
Her criminalization falls under the legal appeal of §129 of criminal code. A legal section which is part of the anti-insurgent structures of the German state, and which is made known to the public as “Anti-Terrorist“ laws.
The current cases under §129 all have certain points in common: what is criminalized are not only actions, but political ties, shared ideas and solidarity.
Thus, people who do not define themselves as a group are criminalized because of their shared political ideals, which are often the only excuse with which the state forcibly constructs such dangerous organizations.
…Repressive attacks. intimately consistent, seeking to destroy the possibility of a personal life -individual and collective- of those who are understood as a potential danger to the Status Quo.
Raids, wiretapping, preventive detention… What is the interest of the state in entering the personal life of an anti-facist? Where does this information go?
Without going into legalistic explanations nor into the particular mechanisms of this trial, it is interesting to see that a case of “Criminal Organization“ is built with the accusation of having been beaten by Nazis, and that this accusation has the character of “affecting the existence and security of the state“.
The existence of which state is being affected? The security of which ideals is endangered by antifacism? In the court room there is no space for individual cases, the hearings are not about the accused persons and their alleged acts.
