Things we Hate.. oh .. Terminate NATO!

March 21, 2021— Future Freedom Foundation by Jacob G. Hornberger.. illustrations added

The Washington Post has published a long piece calling for NATO to take on a new official enemy — China. The piece was written by Sara Bjerg Moller, an assistant professor in the School of Diplomacy and International Relations at Seton Hall University.

She argues that after 30 years since losing the Soviet Union as its official enemy and struggling to find a replacement to justify its continued existence, a perfect replacement would be China.

I’ve got a better idea. Let’s just put NATO out of its misery and TERMINATE it.

After all, let’s not forget NATO’s original mission: to defend Europe from the possibility of an invasion by the Soviet Union, which had been America’s and Britain’s World War II partner and ally but which had been converted to their official enemy at the end of the war.

But the likelihood of a Soviet invasion of Europe was always nil. The Soviet Union had been decimated by World War II, especially as a result of the German invasion of the country.

South London,UK : Copshop squatted Eng/Esp

March 23, 2021 by actforfreedom

Squatters and autonomous activists have occupied the former Clapham Common Police Station to demand the withdrawal of the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill and the end of the femicide recently highlighted by the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving Met police officer.

As the closest cop shop to where Sarah was last seen, the occupation of this building holds particular importance and meaning at this time. Although the bill has been postponed, we have to keep fighting it to ensure it does not pass. And in the meantime, violence against women continues. We must seize this moment where we find ourselves UNITED in rage, unified in our fight against the ongoing global femicide and to remember people like Sarah, Blessing Olusegun and countless others and to build our fight to end violence against women.

We also seek to bring attention to Section 4 of the Bill which criminalises trespass, a racist move by this Tory government which will affect predominantly travellers and van dwellers but also squatters, protest camps and the homeless. We hope that all those who resist the expansion of police powers in the Tories Bill will also join us in resisting any amended versions of that Bill which retain this racist attack which will make a travelling way of life almost impossible.

Stolen baby’s coffin contained just an 800 gram stone! 1000’s more missing in Church/State/Fascist conspiracy

Stolen babies: an 800 gram slab in empty coffin iillustrates the face of decades of continuing impunity

The discovery of a piece of ceramic in a child’s coffin during the exhumation of reprisals of the Franco regime in the Alicante cemetery revives the need of those affected for justice to be done.

by Miguel Ángel Valero @mavmiralles 20 Mar 2021

On March 9, Matilde Ruiz approached the municipal cemetery of Alicante to meet the team of archaeologists who, since the beginning of the month, have been excavating in pit X where the remains of eleven reprisals by the Franco regime in 1940 are located.

Matilde is a woman “With a lot of spirit”, as she herself admits, and her intention when going to the cemetery was to ask for the collaboration of archaeologists who, looking for the remains of a Francoist crime, found evidence of another crime from the same period whose victims are still alive in their majority and trying to see that justice is done.

Pit X, located in quadrant 12 of the Alicante cemetery, was dug in its day to dump the bodies of those defeated in the Civil War, but later it also served to deposit the remains of deceased babies and mutilated members from the General Hospital of Alicante .

This circumstance is what led them to the discovery of a child’s coffin inside which only two fragments of a ceramic slab of about 800 grams were found, supposedly deposited to simulate the weight of a deceased newborn: an obvious clue to the theft of babies, practice.

Nuclear Fuel Buried 108 Feet From the Sea

“The most toxic substance on Earth is separated from exposure to society by ½” of steel encased in a canister.” (Blanch)

That eye-opener comes from renowned nuclear expert Paul Blanch in reference to spent fuel rods removed from San Onofre Nuclear Generation Plant buried near the sea on California’s southern coastline 50 miles north of San Diego.

Seventy-three 20-foot tall canisters of highly toxic nuclear spent fuel rods are nestled underground within 108 feet of the Pacific Ocean and not far from Interstate 5 from which passersby catch a glimpse of 73 large rectangular lids poking above ground, thus sealing the most toxic substances on Earth ensconced in ½” dry casks. (Footnote: In contrast, German CASTOR V/19 ductile cast iron casks, with permanent integrated monitoring, are nearly two-feet thick)

What could possibly go wrong on the seashore?

At the outset of San Onofre’s plans for its 73 buried canisters, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission itself admitted: (1) the thin ½” stainless steel canisters could crack within 30 years (2) there’s no current technology to inspect, repair or replace cracked canisters (3) limited monitoring means leaks may not be detected soon enough.

It is not believed the foregoing has changed one iota.
