Chess Champ Anna Defies Murdering Misogynist Saudi Dictators

Ukrainian world chess champion not playing in dictatorial Saudi Arabia

”The Saudi State only exists so the US can rule the Oil Market. Terrorism, extreme misogyny, slavery and mass murder are therefore acceptable with impunity”.

This video is called The Famous Chess Trap In Action By Anna Muzychuk.

from  The Independent             ‘I am ready to stand for my principles’: Double world chess champion says she won’t defend titles in Saudi Arabia because of kingdom’s inequality

The Ukrainian, 27, will not travel to Saudi Arabia, where she wouldn’t even be allowed to walk down the street unaccompanied

”It would be great if the Ukrainian government would have principles as well, and would follow the example of this chess player by stopping selling Ukrainian warplanes to the Saudi absolute monarchy for their bloody war on the civilian people of Yemen. However, as they are waging their own bloody war against their own compatriots, I am afraid they won’t do that unless they are under big pressure to stop”.

The Blue Passport .. Bollocks to British Bigotry and Class Castration

Assuming the UK does not pull back from Brexit, a non-EU passport will be required. A mock-up of this, in what can only be described as ‘Tory Blue’, was published by the Home Office just before Christmas, when most people were half sozzled. Continue reading “The Blue Passport ..

Repsol Looting Libya: profits unaffected by Pipeline Sabotage:

  updated below

a twitter photo of the export pipeline  26 Dec 17
An explosion has rocked a crude oil pipeline that feeds the Es Sider sea terminal in Libya, an oil source in the country said.

The Mediterranean port of Es Sider, the largest oil depot in Libya. The blast occurred near Marada, on the pipeline belonging to the Waha oil company, the source told Reuters.

The port is now controlled by the powerbroker General Hafter’s forces. Later reports said that oil had been re-routed and less than 100,000 barrels a day in exports will be lost for about a week. Nevertheless oil prices in the US hit a new high on the news. a twitter photo of the export pipeline  26 Dec 17

”A military source told RIA Novosti that the “large” explosion at the pipeline was the result of a terrorist attack“The fighters belonged to either (al-Qaeda-affiliated) Benghazi Defense Brigades or Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) as they are terrorists who carry out diversions to cripple oil production facilities.”      Russia Today Report

The news of the Libyan blast saw oil prices spike to above $65 a barrel on Tuesday, Reuters reported.”In March ’17 … Es Sidar was recaptured by forces loyal to Libya’s eastern-based military commander, Khalifa Haftar, and resumed operations”.


Repsol still looting Libya… Profits Soar while local Tuareg and Tebu  go Hungry

The explosion will not however disrupt exports from the Sharara oilfield where Spanish company Repsol has the biggest 60% stake. Sharara now exports nearly 300.000 barrels of oil a day, making enormous profits for Repsol.

Chief Executive Officer – Josu Jon Imaz boasted that its ‘upstream’ profits soared by $69 million when the pipeline from Sharara to the port came back online  after protest Blockades in the second quarter of 2016. (source Repsol).

Repsol’s local company has contributed nothing that we know of to alleviate the extreme suffering of the impoverished local people suffering racist discrimination in the Ubari area next to the oilfield. Instead it is concentrating on trying to boost its profits by pumping out Libyan oil even faster, aiming for 330,000 barrels a day in the near future .

Repsol is joint operator with both the National Oil Corporation (NOC), France’s ‘imperialist’ Total   and Austria’s OMV  which also have stakes in what is currently Libya’s biggest oilfield.The Sharara oilfield is situated in the middle of what was once Lake Megafezzan, once bigger than the UK, which is now dried up, it may not rain for 5 years in the area. . All that is left  are a dozen small salt lakes near Ubari fed from the extensive Sahara aquifer beneath, which may be already damaged or in imminent danger from Repsol’s oil extraction. The Tuareg eat the red shrimps which thrive in the ultra salty water. Continue reading “Repsol Looting Libya: profits unaffected by Pipeline Sabotage:”

Israel Jails 16 yr old Girl Ahmed and family for Resisting Neo-Fascist Pogrom

An Israeli military court has extended the detention of Ahed Tamimi, a 16-year-old girl who has become the face of Palestinian resistance to Israel’s military occupation of the West Bank for many who follow the weekly protests in her village through social media.Ahed was arrested in an overnight raid of her family’s home in the village of Nabi Saleh last Monday.

The arrest, and images of the less-than-daring raid released by the Israeli police to broadcasters, appeared to be an effort to placate far-right Israelis who were angered by video recorded last Friday, as the Palestinian teenager and a female cousin forced two heavily armed Israeli soldiers from her front yard, slapping and kicking them. Dec 19Education minister says 16-year-old should “finish her life in prison.” We suggest the minister himself goes to prison, taking Bibi with him. and her mother Nariman Continue reading “Israel Jails 16 yr old Girl Ahmed and family for Resisting Neo-Fascist Pogrom”

Argelia da luz verde al Fracking Gas con EU Imperialistas TOTAL y CEPSA

   Read original in English HERE: https://wp.me/pIJl9-aGe 

A pesar de las promesas, Argelia ha abandonado su moratoria sobre el gas de Fracking que adoptó después del levantamiento popular de 1915, con miles de heridos y un muerto, Mohamed Anoui, de 21 años. La fuerte resistencia unida obligó al Estado a abandonar sus planes por temor a volver a encender una guerra civil….

El fracking utiliza un cóctel químico tóxico y una presión explosiva incontrolable para romper rocas abiertas y puede envenenar permanentemente las aguas subterráneas de las cuales las comunidades argelinas del desierto son 100% dependientes.

El gas natural es más del 90% de metano que escapa fácilmente y es docenas de veces más letal que el CO2 en el marco de 20 años.

El “apuesto por el gas” de la UE como un sustituto “verde” es un fraude flagrante que ignora la urgente necesidad de salvarnos de Climate Meltdown. Los nuevos oleoductos subsidiados por el público de la UE, NordStream, TAP y Midcat son peligrosos e inmorales apostados por la codiciosa industria de combustibles fósiles corruptos para encerrarnos en su producto para las generaciones venideras.

La tubería de Midcat es especialmente perversa. Se promueve para “traer gas africano a Europa” cuando la capacidad de los oleoductos actuales de Argelia no puede satisfacer ni la mitad de las necesidades de Iberia. El único uso para Midcat será bombear gas LNG de Barcelona a Francia (en lugar de enviarlo directamente a Francia). Si Midcat se construye será puramente porque la UE pagará por ello y los políticos españoles obtendrán su parte. Una vez que se construya Midcat, el argumento puede cambiar a “necesitamos nuevos gaseoductos de Argelia para incorporar Fracking Gas y hacer que Midcat sea viable”.

E

En 2015, la industria, incluida Halliburton, prometió que sus operaciones previas al Frackinjg en Argelia eran “absolutamente limpias”, pero los activistas visitaron los sitios de la encuesta y descubrieron desbordamientos de lagos de desechos tóxicos y productos químicos esparcidos por todas partes. Fotos y vídeos publicados en sitios de redes sociales revelaron la ausencia de instalaciones para tratar el agua y el lodo de perforación, llevando a la gente de Ain Salah a rebelar y sacar a la luz la falsidad de las afirmaciones de Sonatrach.

El Gas de Fracking es mucho peor que el gas extraido por métodos convencionales. Es al menos el doble de dañino que el carbón para el cambio climático. debido a las inevitables filtraciones de metano. (De hecho, algunos estudios han calculado que podría ser hasta 5 veces peor que el carbón; nunca se han realizado mediciones en los EE. UU. A pesar de que se perforaron varios millones de pozos de Fracking, excepto en casos limitados controlados por la propia industria corrupta.) El Presidente Trump ha ABOLIDO POR DECRETO hasta los controles voluntarios que iban a ser introducidos)

Timimoun, donde comenzará el fracking, es el antiguo centro de un centenar de pueblos de oasis impresionantes, Se ubica entre majestuosos acantilados. Todos los oases se encuentran 100% dependientes del agua limpia del acuífero.

La UE todavía acepta el fraude del Gas de Fracking de los Estados Unidos, bajo una fuerte presión para permitir su ingreso a Europa, a pesar de ser más caro y dos veces más letal para el clima que el gas de Rusia y otros competidores.

Algeria Green-lights climate-lethal Fracking Gas with EU Imperialists TOTAL and CEPSA

leer en castellano.. AQUI https://wp.me/pIJl9-aJa

Despite promises Algeria has abandoned its Moratorium on Fracking Gas which it adopted after the 1915 popular uprising, with thousands of injured and one death, 21 year old Mohamed Anoui. In 2015 the strong united popular resistance forced the State to drop its plans for fear of re-igniting civil war. Now Total and Cepsa are back and due to Start Fracking in April 2018.

The first fracking fields are planned withTotal and Cepsa, in the Tight gas fields of SW Algeria, first in the fields of Ahnet.Timimoun, Touat and Reggane which were already extensively prepared before Total was temporarily expelled during the Anti Fracking Uprising in 2015.

Fracking uses a toxic chemical cocktail and uncontrollable explosive pressure to splinter open rocks and can permanently poison groundwater on which Algerian desert communities are 100% dependent.

‘Natural’ gas is over 90% methane which escapes easily and is dozens of times more lethal than CO2 in the 20 year time frame.

The EU’s ‘dash for gas’ as a ‘green’ substitute is a blatant fraud which ignores the urgent necessity to save us from Climate Meltdown. The new pipelines subsidised by the EU public, NordStream, TAP and Midcat are a dangerous and immoral  bid by the greedy corrupt fossil fuel industry to lock us into their product for generations to come.

The Midcat pipeline is especially perverse. It is being promoted to ‘bring African gas to Europe’ when the capacity of the present pipelines from Algeria can’t supply even half of Iberia’s needs. The only use for Midcat will be to pump LNG gas from Barcelona to France (instead of shipping it directly to France). If Midcat is built it will be purely because the EU will pay for it and Spanish politicians will get their cut. Once Midcat is built the argument may shift to ‘we need new pipelines from Algeria to bring in Fracking Gas and  make Midcat viable’.

In 2015 the industry, including Halliburton, vowed that their pre.fracking operations in Algeria were ‘squeaky clean’, but activists visited the survey sites and found open overflowing  toxic waste lakes and chemicals strewn everywhere. Photos and videos posted on social network sites revealed the absence of facilities to treat water and drilling mud, leading the people of Ain Salah to blow the whistle on Sonatrach’s claims..

Fracked Gas is much much worse, it is at least twice as Bad as Coal for Climate Change, due to inevitable methane leaks. (Indeed some studies have calculated it could be up to 5 times as bad as coal, measurements in the US have never been done despite several million fracking wells being drilled, except in limited cases controlled by the corrupt industry itself. Trump ABOLISHED BY DECREE the voluntary controls which were due to be introduced

Timimoun, where the fracking will begin, is the ancient center of 200 magical oasis villages set into majestic cliffs. All are 100% dependent on clean aquifer water.

The EU still accepts the fraud of US Frack Gas, under heavy pressure to allow it into Europe, despite being more expensive and twice as climate lethal as its Russian and other competitors. Continue reading “Algeria Green-lights climate-lethal Fracking Gas with EU Imperialists TOTAL and CEPSA”
