Reminder: Indian peasants and agricultural workers remain in the midst of a country-wide agitation sparked by the proposal of three farm bills that were then signed into law by the right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party government in September 2020. In June 2021, our dossier summarised the situation plainly.

Dear friends, Greetings from the desk of the Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.

14 Oct 2021 from Tricontinental via The New Dark Age shared with thanks

See the new dossier. on an Arduous Road to Equality ..en Español Português.

It is clear that the problem in Indian agriculture is not so much lack of institutional support, but inadequate and uneven deployment of institutions as well as the their unwillingness to address the inherent inequalities of village society.

There is no evidence that agribusiness firms will develop infrastructure, enhance agricultural markets, or provide technical support to farmers. All this is clear to the farmers.

The Wreckers Portal 2021

The earth is not dying, it is being killed, and those who are killing it have names and addresses.” Utah Phillips

Capitalism is burning up our planet, devastating ecosystems and communities in its ceaseless hunger for profit. Everything is for sale, and the one great goal is growth: producing and consuming ever more stuff, even as it kills us. This engine of mass destruction is driven by burning forests: the long-dead forests of fossil fuels, and the living forests of today. Though we all play our parts in the consumer system, some people play much bigger parts than others. The people killing the earth are those directing the machine – and crushing any resistance to it.

Our Wreckers of the Earth project has two aims:

  • to identify and map 300 of the main planet-killing companies, banks, investment funds and institutions, with their bases…

part 3 0f an Analysis by hawarnews.com (ANHA) SHARED WITH THANKS.

After two years of Turkish occupation of Serêkaniyê and Girê Spî, these cities have become a hotbed for mercenary groups and the dissemination of extremist thinking.

On 6 October 2019 US President Donald Trump announced that US troops in north eastern Syria were going to withdraw . (from part 1)

The US decision was exploited by the Turkish occupation forces that launched a ground offensive into North Eastern Syria on 9 October 2019 using fighter jets, tanks, artillery and all highly advanced technology backed by support given by extremist ideologies such their Nusra Front (Al Qaeda) and ISIS paid mercenary groups under the Syrian National Army, the SNA.

After an intrepid and heroic resistance lasted for 14 days by the Syrian Democratic Council both Sere Kaniye and Gire Spi were occupied by Turkish forces and mercenary groups.(from part 1)

Turkey tries to give new breath to the Ottoman Empire under the so-called Misak Mili that covers areas from Aleppo up to Mosul and Kirkuk .

Heroic Serekaniye/Ras al-Ain still holds out.. Oct 2019,

ISIS mercenaries have emerged in these occupied towns. Despite the crimes being committed and heavy intimidation, the resentment of the people against the occupation and its mercenaries is increasing day by day.

What is the fate of these occupied areas? How do Syrians get them back?

345 children under the age of 6 in prison with their mothers in Turkey: report

By Turkish Minute – October 12, 2021 182 shared with thanks

A total of 345 children under the age of 6 are accompanying their mothers in Turkish prisons, and they receive the same treatment as inmates, the Stockholm Center for Freedom reported, citing Deutsche Welle Turkish service’s report on a study by the Right to Life Association.

According to the study children are traumatized by strip-searches. They are not well fed and don’t receive sufficient medical care. They also have difficulty getting time to play.

Human Rights Foundation of Turkey (TİHV) Secretary-General Coşkun Üsterci said the courts need to take into account the economic and social conditions of mothers with children under 6. “Even at times when imprisonment is absolutely necessary, female inmates with children should be in prisons with special and better conditions where the children can be raised well,” he added.

“We don’t even know if children are allowed to see daylight,” Ceren Kalay of the Ankara Bar Association said. “The children can be protected by putting their mothers under house arrest.”

The number of children accompanying their mothers in prison skyrocketed in Turkey in the aftermath of a coup attempt in July 2016. According to a statement from Turkish Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu on February 20, a total of 622,646 people have been the subject of investigation and 301,932 have

been detained, while 96,000 others have been jailed due to alleged links to the Gülen movement, accused by the Turkish government of orchestrating the coup attempt. The minister said there are currently 25,467 people in Turkey’s prisons who were jailed on alleged links to the movement.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has been targeting followers of the Gülen movement, a faith-based group inspired by Turkish cleric Fethullah Gülen, since the corruption investigations of December 17-25, 2013, which implicated then-Prime Minister Erdoğan, his family members and his inner circle.

Dismissing the investigations as a Gülenist coup and conspiracy against his government, Erdoğan designated the movement as a terrorist organization and began to target its members. He locked up thousands including many prosecutors, judges and police officers involved in the investigation as well as journalists who reported on them.

Erdoğan intensified the crackdown on the movement following a coup attempt on July 15, 2016 that he accused Gülen of masterminding. Gülen and the movement strongly deny involvement in the abortive putsch or any terrorist activity.

Erdogan to steal more of Syria? Al Jazeera floods the world with racist and genocidal Turkish/Qatari propaganda

thefreeonline's avatarThe Free

Turkey’s elected dictator Erdogan signals a new military operation in Syria, blaming Kurdish fighters with no evidence for a missile that killed two policemen in the Turkish military occupation and for 2 mortar shells that allegedly landed in Turkey.

On 11th Oct Al Jazeera presented to its 80 million mainly Arabic viewers and readers another article and video supporting a new invasion, ethnic cleansing and mass murder of Kurdish people in Syria.

Al Jazeera is praised for allowing investigative and progressive reporting worldwide.

But it’s financed by Qatar, which is largely controlled by Turkish blackmail. It’s no secret that Qatar ‘gifted’ $18 billion to Erdogan in 2018, hosts a huge and expanding Turkish military base, and got Turkish aid in its dispute with the Saudis.

Al Jazeera is now being forced to make this propaganda supporting Turkish war crimes .. See: “Al Jazeera English: A threat against the Turkey
