The situation in Syria is to
escalate out of all proportions, where mass exodus of people not before seen in
a country will happen
There will be practically no
people left for the Government to govern and the total collapse of the
financial sector is already occurring
No one is in any doubt that
Bashar al-Assad needs to be removed for the country to have any chance of
rebuilding itself
At this time this is not
possible and so the continued decline remains unabated
Even the rebels are now
questioning their motives as the destruction all around them with the chaos
that follows leaves one with little hope
Even with industries, that
wish to come in to rebuild this broken country, will not want to while Bashar
al-Assad remains in power
His days are numbered as more
of his internal guard are now leaving in their droves
They go not to fight, but to
escape from all the carnage that surrounds them
These soldiers have no fight
left in them. They feel betrayed by the very regime they fought to defend
Their minds and hearts are
broken for all the world to see
They, like the Syrian people,
want justice from a regime that is both brutal and dishonest
Once friendly protests were
thought to bring about regime change; no one thought this carnage would
continue unabated for so long
Many parts of the country are
completely in ruins with no hope of rebuilding
The onslaught of rebel
fighters continues down their path of destruction
The day is fast coming when
International intervention will be required whether they like it or not
The humanitarian scale is
already off the charts
There are many who do not
have a conscience from the mess that was originally laid at their feet
All those who are in a
position to make a real difference to this dilapidated state should start to
make the solution for regime change
They must start to remove all
that is systematically rotten about this state
The time for sitting on the
fence has long passed and it is now time to take up action and bring an end to
incessant bloodshed
This is for the sake of human
conscience and for moral obligations
The world now looks on and,
where those who are wise, it is their time now to act
The call for reunification of
the Syrian people is long overdue
One can no longer afford to
sit on ones hands, the cry is no longer silent, but ringing in the ears of all
those who have ears to hear
We, as human beings, have the
collective responsibility to act according to God’s Law and moral obligation.
That time is now!
At last a local indigenous
community win their fight against those who want to inflict their own type of
religion on them
Some 230 Orthodox Jews have
begun leaving a village in western Guatemala
The village elders of the
Mayan community will not tolerate the Jewish members wanting to impose their
religion on them
The Lev Tahor members were
asked to leave San Juan La Laguna after the meetings with the Mayan community
The elders accused the Jews
of shunning the villagers and imposing their religion and customs, which were
not accepted but continued
The Lev Tahor had settled in
the village six years ago as the group searched for religious freedom
Yet they sought to impose
their own religion over the Mayan community, who are Catholic and do not wish
to have their religion undermined
The Mayan people stated, “We act in self-defence and to respect our
rights as the indigenous people of this land”
“The Guatemalan constitution protects us, because we need to
conserve and preserve our culture”
Many of the Jewish group had
been living in the village for six years
However some had arrived earlier
this year from Canada after they were forced out by the authorities there!
As always with these matters,
there is no respect for the indigenous people
Outsiders feel they have a
right to enforce their beliefs on others, who do not wish them
This is blatant arrogance and
so it is right that they be cast out
The Jewish people have no
concerns for these peace loving people, who wish to continue practicing their
own culture
This culture has been in
place for centuries and is being undermined by those whose only thought is for
themselves
They were disruptive in
Canada and now, in Guatemala, they just don’t get it, how disliked they are
They were accepted into the
village by peace loving people, only to be abused by Lev Tahor members
inflicting their beliefs on them
Their actions will no longer
be tolerated and so the Mayan community has ousted them out!
The shocking revelations of
the sex abuse scandal in Rotherham are where 1,400 children were exploited by
Asian gangs
These children were abused over
a 16 year period by gangs of paedophiles after police and council bosses turned
a blind eye
They turned a blind eye for
fear of being labelled racist
The senior officials who were
responsible for the blatant failures saw victims as young as 11 years being
treated with contempt
They were categorised as
being out of control or simply ignored when they asked for help
There have been calls for
Shaun Wright, the Police and Crime Commissioner for South Yorkshire, to step
down
It emerged that he was the councillor
responsible for those children’s services at the time these events occurred
Details now of the appalling
depravity in the town of the systemic failures that allowed these abuses to
continue
Victims were gang raped and
others were groomed and trafficked across Northern England by groups of Asian
men
When these children tried to
expose this abuse, they were threatened with guns
They were warned their loved
ones would be raped or doused with petrol and burnt alive
There have been three previous
reports into this problem, which has been suppressed or ignored by officials
This was either because they
did not believe it or they did not like the findings
For years these children have
been failed by councillors, police and society
Other similar high profiled
cases under investigation include Rochdale, Derby and Oxford
These children are extremely
vulnerable and all were let down by the agencies entrusted to protect them
Even frontline staff raised
concerns, but they were not acted upon; this allowed devastating child sexual
exploitation to go unchallenged
Is fear of being called a
racist an adequate excuse for dereliction of duty?
This is an occasion to blame
those who applied collective immunity to one ethnic group, who did so for
reasons of electoral advantage
We are no longer in the
1960’s; we are supposed to be in enlightening times
From what is now being
investigated we should be able to see prosecutions, resignations, sackings and
forfeiture of pension rights
For those who cannot be prised
out of their positions, they should not see another pay rise or promotion
The police and those in
authority have failed our most vulnerable children and they need to be made an
example of if anything is to change
Our society is both sick and
broken and we claim to be a civilised society
Animals behave better than us
and we purport to be the intelligent species?
“Nico Rosberg could face
punishment from Formula 1 bosses after Lewis Hamilton said the German admitted
to deliberately colliding with him”
“Hamilton claimed Rosberg
‘basically said he did it on purpose’”
“Causing a collision is an
offence under F1’s sporting regulations”
“Toto Wolff Mercedes’s boss
slammed Rosberg’s actions as ‘utterly unacceptable’”
“On the podium after the race
Rosberg was left in no doubt how the crowd felt about his performance as he was
booed”
“Rosberg will face an
inquisition from his own team group meeting. He broke the golden rule of
Formula One, ‘do not hit your team mate!’”
“The repercussions need to be
severe in order to bring it home to Rosberg that his actions are unacceptable
and dangerous”
“The collision by Rosberg on
Hamilton’s car, which was deliberate, caused Hamilton to have a puncture”
“His car was forced off the
track and as a result his rear floor was also damaged, so he could not finish
the race”
“It was on lap 10 that a
piece of tyre debris from Hamilton’s shredded rubber caught the radio mask on
Rosberg’s car”
“He tried to remove it at
200mph, but couldn’t. It kept flapping around in his face making steering and
vision very difficult indeed”
“It will be a travesty of
justice if Rosberg is not pulled over the coals over this incident”
“It clearly shows his
emotional immaturity over Hamilton is dangerous”
“Who now can trust this man?”
“If he were to go to another
team to race, could that team mate also be fearful that he would be pushed off
the track?”
“Rosberg is potentially
dangerous and it is now up to Mercedes to make an example of him”
“Rosberg is clearly the bad
apple in the pack and if Toto Wolff does not make an example of him another
incident will arise”
“If Rosberg can do it once
and get away with it, a second time becomes even easier”
“Rosberg cannot be trusted
and so his erratic actions could potentially damage someone else in another
race”
“He has shown himself up for
what he is and F1 should actively pursue this and not to just push it aside as
a racing incident”
“This problem will not go
away”
“To do nothing will allow the
door to be open for potentially another incident, which could have dire
consequences”
“Rosberg will not get away
with this by Spiritual Law; it is now up to Man’s law to do the right and
proper thing”
“Have they got the guts to do
it, if so it will show the world that Mercedes upholds the law and will not
allow an idiot to rule here?”
“In the long run Lewis
Hamilton will come out on top”
“He is well liked by the crowds,
as an outstanding driver and a person who is honest in his delivery”
“Mercedes will do well to
treat him right!”
The thing that must be upheld
throughout this world is the law and justice
Where that fails, Mankind is
all a drift like a rudderless boat. It cannot steer itself to safe haven nor
can it deal with treacherous seas
The Rule of Law must be made
the main architect of all that is right and moral in this world
Justice must be the
preliminary advocate to all the principles laid down by those laws or Mankind
will perish
Mankind must learn to live
and abide to what is lawfully right, otherwise chaos reigns. That is where we are today!
Mankind cannot complain that
we have extensive wars all over this world
It is Mankind who has made
all the wrong decisions and now reaps what it has sown
Until Mankind decides to do
what is right and not what is of interest to them, then the situation will only
grow worse
Civilisation will be wiped
out by the aggressors, who were never pulled up in the first place
Accountability has been left
to go unchecked
We, as a race in the eyes of
the Almighty, are contemptible
Yet we continue in this vane
totally unabashed as if we will never be made accountable for our crimes
I can assure you all, who have
subjected another to harm by their own mind or hand, will be made accountable
by God’s Law
Mankind is too slow to act
and because of this, the world is now out of control
The disease of mistrust,
wrong decisions, total selfishness and arrogance sweeps like a cancer
throughout this world
Soon there will be no place
safe where Mankind has not tarnished it and made it rotten
Until there are leaders who
are honest and lawful and who have the desire to change Mankind’s thinking in
the right and proper way…
…then none can survive this
onslaught of disgraceful behaviour!
The dreadful gang rape of a
young woman, and then the burning of her home with her with her son in it, is
outrageous
A military court in the
Democratic Republic of Congo was aware of the army colonel who gave the orders
This woman is one of 1,000
people, who have named Lt Col Bedi Mobuli Engangela for his involvement in war
crimes and crimes against humanity
He is now on trial facing
these accusations, and as is customary, these perpetrators deny all the charges
They have no compassion, no
sense of guilt or of right and wrong towards their abusive crimes directed
towards others
Soldiers use their position
of authority to hide their damaged warped minds and to justify their actions
against the innocent
The innocent are those who
are frail and cannot fight back
These soldiers are nothing
but bullies in a uniform and that makes it alright?
The UN says the trial is a test
case for the Congolese military
They have often failed to
convict high-ranking officers accused of sexual violence
This colonel has violated all
manner of horrendous crimes. He recruited children to become soldiers and
ordered them to attack villages
It is high time that the
International Force comes in to enforce a code of conduct where war is
concerned
It cannot be left to rogue
military officials to carry on in massacring and maiming at will
Clearly the Geneva Convention
does not apply to these barbaric countries
The Geneva Convention,
relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War 75 U.N.T.S. 287,
entered into force 21st October 1950
Who is enforcing these
rules? If not what is the point of it
all, if nothing is ever done to safeguard the innocents of war?
The world must stand up and
be counted and start intervening for justice
Those who are hell-bent on
killing one another as in the armies, then so be it
Leave the women and children
and the old and frail alone. Where is
justice for them?
When will this world start
putting action into stopping wholesale slaughter of the innocence?
Until there is
accountability, what is the point of the Geneva Convention of Human Rights?
It becomes a mockery of what
is supposed to be a decent charter?
The tragedy for all war torn
countries is that the UN has no real teeth
The UN human rights have very
little teeth, but lots of moral and civil right on their side
Until these two forces can
marry up together with an engineered collective strategy, then precious little
is ever achieved
The mind-sets of the people
involved in the Human Rights organisations are highly committed people
Navi Pillay & others are
outstanding in their work & dedication into bringing in reforms to countries
where human right laws hardly exist
It is a travesty of justice
that so many people continue to suffer worldwide without any due redress
They remain at the mercy of
archaic laws and where their rights are never represented or even heard
People are locked up for
decades or disappear without trace and where the rule of law is but a
by-product of what it is supposed to be
In the case of Syria,
mounting pressure from all sides is now being implemented and war crimes will
eventually be targeted
The regime of Bashar al-Assad
is in disarray and he is not aware of a plot to assassinate him when the time
is right
Many have already tried but
failed
The day is coming when his
own men will no longer commit themselves to his own brand of evil
They will want to walk freely
from this oppressor
They will seek asylum amongst
the opposition groups, who are still holding out even though supplies are in
short supply
Syria will fall, but not in
the way most politicians think. There will be an upsurge and then the coup de grâce will be delivered
See a young general take over
and from then on a political solution will be found
It will be with the right
advisors, so that Syrians can return to their homes at long last!
Until an International Law
Enforcement Agency comes into operation there will be no peace between the
Israelis and the Palestinians
The law has to determine the
criteria on several aspects of security of settlements
International trade to both
sides can bring in lasting peace and stability
Borders need to be
re-established and where the International Law Enforcement Agency is the
overseer in all disputes
All will be made accountable
by the Law
Courts will need to be set up
to oversee that everything is maintained for either side
Until the Law is brought in
and upheld, there will be no lasting peace and prosperity, as both sides wish
only to have their own agenda
Peace talks will never come
to anything
They can never amount to
anything, as both sides are committed to interfere constantly to maintain their
own agenda
For the sake of peace for the
people on both sides, the International Law Enforcement Agency must be
established
Because of the constant
wilful disruption of the peace initiative, neither side can be trusted any
longer
Both sides have constantly
violated the peace negotiations for years
So now it should be taken out
of their hands, as trust to deal with these matters has consistently failed
The matter needs to be taken
up by the Higher Courts to establish peace and security for both sides
Both sides are responsible
for horrific atrocities and they will be brought to justice
The eyes of the world must
now see that an end to this horror must finally come to an end
Egypt can no longer be a part
of the peace initiative as they are in the pockets of Israel and their
employers the US
Egypt is never impartial –
that is why the Law, which is right and honest and takes no sides, must be the
only impartial solution here
For over 60 years this unrest
has carried on
Many countries are responsible
for this situation and that is why these countries can no longer become
involved
Their mess has brought about
this situation
The Law is the only solution
and where Officers of that Law remain to see it is upheld without interference
Then it can succeed for the
people
The world needs to see an end
to these atrocities committed by both sides
Justice is the only way it
can ever be reached!
Finally the United Nations
have insisted its investigations into alleged war crimes in Sri Lanka will go
ahead
The UN team were refused
entry as the authorities said they would investigate their own crimes
This will never happen as the
atrocities by the Sri Lankan Government on the Tamil rebels have too much to
hide
Navi Pillay, the UN Human
Rights Chief, has said with modern day technology she will be able to carry out
their investigations
Pillay already has highly
credible reports on abuses in Syria produced by her team of experts despite not
being allowed on the ground
The same can be done for Sri
Lanka
One UN report published three
years ago said around 40,000 Tamil civilians died in the final weeks of the
conflict
This was due to heavy
shelling by Government forces at the time
There were 350,000 civilians
trapped with the Indian Ocean behind them. They had nowhere to run
This bloody civil war lasted
26 years and where both sides are accused of committing war crimes
Justice will be done and
those who are culpable will be brought to trial and justice then will be seen
to be done
There is no person or country
that is above the law or beneath its protection
The world is now out of
control
Until justice is visibly seen
to be given, Governments will continue to abuse the law in whichever way it
suits them
The innocent have no
recourse. They are just exterminated, because they do not agree with the regime
in hand
Democracy is not visible,
crime and corruption always is!
At last after 14 years a
human rights activist has been released.
Common sense has finally prevailed
Irom Sharmila Chanu went on
hunger strike in protest against a controversial law in north east India
The law stated that these
Armed Forces had Special Powers and where these soldiers were given sweeping
powers
They were able to arrest
people without warrants and even shoot to kill in certain situations
In 1958, the Indian
Government passed the Armed Forces Special Powers Act and it is still being
applied today
The A.F.S.P. Act has India
with the longest history of the military abusing its powers under the act
Abduction, torture and
killings by these Special Forces carries on. The Indian Government is under
pressure to repeal the act
Violence only begets violence
Shortly after Sharmila’s arrest she was charged
with ‘attempting to commit suicide’
In 2002, she was put in a
hospital and force-fed through a pipe in her nose. She has also spent most of
this time in solitary confinement
The court has accepted that
there was no basis for charging Sharmila with attempting suicide, so now she is
free to go
Sharmila began her hunger
strike after ten civilians were killed by Indian soldiers
The sadness is that very
little has changed, so her fight will go on!
Campaigners said the law is
misused
Sharmila’s protest has won
her worldwide recognition with Amnesty International describing her as a
prisoner of conscience
It is a pity that the Indian
Government does not have the same conscience or courage to change what is so
obviously a wrong act!
There are double standards in
Mr Cameron’s Government with relation to the Yazidi people
What has been done to the
Iraqi Christians, who equally have lost everything? They too were killed
They were forced from their
homes and had to flee to Lebanon. We have done nothing to help our own
They have been completely
ignored
Even the Christian church
officials have been remonstrating for help to be given to them. Again this has
been ignored
This operation on so called
humanitarian grounds is all about Oil, to safeguard the wealth of the US and
ultimately Israel
Until we start doing what is
RIGHT and stop doing what is WRONG, we cannot complain
What we sow so shall we reap
and this is exactly what is happening right now
Tony Blair, as Middle East
Peace Envoy, is sadly lacking. Is he possibly hiding away from his war crimes?
The US put in their puppet in
charge of Iraq, Nouri al-Maliki
Al-Maliki, with his vicious
death squads, murdered and tortured large numbers of Sunnis
Al-Maliki was left unchecked
by the US and so was able to continue his offensive to wipe out whole sways of
Sunnis
One of Nouri al-Maliki’s
favourite interrogation tools was an electric drill applied to the kneecaps of
Sunnis
US generals in Iraq used Shia
death squads to crush Sunni resistance
Now it is payback time for
the Sunnis
Sunnis have been fighting
alongside IS militants against a ferocious regime in Baghdad
Let us be clear, the populace
in the West are ignorant of these atrocities
Their understanding of
sympathy by other extremist’s movements is not there
Violence creates violence and
that is what is happening on the ground
The US has to put its own
created problems in Iraq in order and finish the job it started
Finally there must be a
person who can unite Iraq and bring stability to this war torn country,
otherwise there can be no peace for anyone!
The new CIA appointment of
Haider al-Abadi is expected to make this nation safe for western oil companies,
so nothing that much will change
The world now needs to
appoint an International framework of law and order that serves all the people
of this world
It cannot be exclusive to
those who always hold the big stick & determine the outcome simply because
they hold the funds to dictate policies
This is not about world
justice, this is about dominance over the rest of the world and it cannot be wrapped
up any other way!
For those who have the power
to do something about it, there is no more time to remain sleeping
For the love of humanity,
please DO something to save this planet from the atrocities of Mankind that
forever plague us
It shows again the fear that
is implanted into the British people, as Tony Blair did about Saddam Hussein
Tony Blair admits now he
would have invaded Iraq anyway without evidence of Weapons of Mass Destruction
Blair would have found a way
to justify war to Parliament and to the public
Lord Goldsmith was the
Attorney General in July 2002, eight months before the invasion
Lord Goldsmith said that the
desire for regime change was not a legal base for military action
The Iraq War was unlawful!
Tony Blair said in a speech
to the Labour Party Conference in 2004 that he apologises
This was for the information
about WMD that turned out to be wrong
Unseen evidence given to the
Chilcot Inquiry by British Intelligence is to be disclosed later this year
Tony Blair was told that Iraq
had only trivial amounts of weapons of mass destruction, enough only to fill a
petrol lorry
Yet he still went to war on
this premise
Mr Blair realised and
understood this as not being a sensible argument to go to war, yet he did it
anyway
The weekend at Crawford (USA)
in April 2002 with President George W. Bush, changed his way of thinking
Blair ‘had his head turned’
and was ‘star-struck’ by Mr Bush
We now must be mindful of
history repeating itself by Mr Cameron’s warning words in the Sunday Telegraph
‘If we do not act to stem the onslaught of this exceptionally
dangerous terrorist movement…
‘…it will only grow stronger until it can target us on the streets
of Britain’
Britain should not have
invaded Iraq in the first place. We are reaping what we have sown
Understand this that the US
armed and trained ISIL in Jordan to overthrow the Syrian regime
Britain has been one of the
countries who has funded this organisation against the Basher al-Assad regime
Now ISIL, as IS, have gone
rogue and must be stopped by a new pretext humanitarian crusade
Lurid reports of IS cruelty
may well be true, but also exaggerated to justify intervention
After all, we have already
seen similar untruths about Saddam’s regime and al Qaida’s threat to the entire
globe. This has not happened
Britain and the US did not
want to invade Syria, but are prepared and are doing so in Iraq
The US-French-British old
colonialists are quick to get involved in oil-rich Iraq
The Yazidis are the excuse to
invade as were WMD before
France and Britain are
sending arms to the Kurdish militia known as the ‘pesh merga’
Israel has supplied the Kurds
with arms since 1970
It is interesting that the
Kurds are now exporting oil directly to Israel through a Turkish pipeline
Meanwhile Baghdad is cut off
due to their present regime
As it was with Iraq in 2002,
so it is again. It is not the people that are the reason for invasion but OIL
as the prime objective
It simply cannot be allowed
to get into the wrong hands
We, the general public, must
no longer be hoodwinked by our politicians
The amount of lives lost due
to Blair’s bigheadedness and arrogance has cost this country dearly and we are
still paying the price for it
Not to mention the countless
other lives lost and are still being lost – all this on his head!
Is there nobody who will
stand up and be honest regarding these invasions?
Are there no honest people
out there who can stand up and speak the truth?
We need people who have
influence to sort out these worldly matters and restore peace to our world?
There is no level that is too
low for offensive US Governors to stoop to, to gain power and control
In the US State of Texas,
Rick Perry has been charged by a Grand Jury with abusing his Powers of Office
A special prosecutor showed
evidence where the Republican had broken the law
Rick Perry used a funding
veto to force a local prosecutor to resign
Perry cut funds to a state
anti-corruption unit run by a District Attorney
Rick Perry faces two counts
of abuse of power and coercion related to his decision to veto $7.5m in funding
This was for the Public
Integrity Unit run by the County District
The Texans for Public
Justice, who filed the complaint, said Perry’s bullying crossed the line into
law breaking
Abuse of Office can carry
punishments of between five and ninety-nine years in prison
Coercion of a public servant
carries sentences ranging from two to ten years
So many people in public
office believe in their own power
If we did not have the law
enforcing what is right, they would continue to get out of control
To be a public servant is a
privilege and an honour to serve, it is not a right and so servants to the
public must know their place!
There seems to be a
breakthrough in India’s Government thinking regarding women at long last
Narendra Modi, India’s new
Prime Minister, has said India has been shamed by recent rape reports
He has called on parents to
take responsibilities for their sons’ actions
The parents must teach their
sons the difference between right and wrong
Parents must bring up better
sons and not just question their daughters
The growing sex crimes
against women had left Mr Modi ashamed and he also asked that Indians stop discriminating
against female children
Mr Modi appealed to doctors
to end abortions of female foetuses as there was already a skewed sex ratio
Scrutiny of sexual violence
and rape in India is high on the agenda
This was due to a 23 year old
student, who was gang-raped on a bus and later died of her injuries
The perpetrators were given
life sentences
India’s women athletes have
won 29 medals in the Commonwealth Games. This at least is a very proud moment
for women in India
Mr Modi is also concerned by the
all-pervasive filth which is around. India must end open-air defecation and
build more toilets
Every school should have
their own toilets. This should have been done decades ago. We are in the 21st
century after all
It seems inconceivable to
those of us in the West that India has the nuclear bomb
It has a well-equipped space
programme, but hardly any toilets for their own people
The diseases spread with open
defecation damaging the people’s health, yet little thought is given to their
safety
This is totally incongruous
with many of their high and mighty policies
It shows the inconsistency of
Government to differentiate what is important, the welfare of their people or
nuclear deterrents
If one country blows up the
world, we are all dead anyway
The tragic death has occurred
of Robin Williams
He will be missed by many
around the world for his artistry of performance and for his genuine heart of
kindness that he gave to everybody
When depression hits it can
often be very disabling, where the person is not able to function in the way
they would ideally wish to
They become paralysed with a
fear that they can no longer go on in this world
For them suicide is the only
way out, where the individual sees that they can’t continue down this path of
mental pain and anguish
They see no hope and no
solutions, the pain ever increasing and without mercy
It is at that time, with a
clear thinking mind, which has already planned this over many months that the
deed occurs
Now that Robin Williams has
passed, he will be able finally to get the right care and attention
Those in the Afterlife, the
Spirit Doctors and Nurses, are far more equipped to deal sensitively with his
particular set of anxieties
The Divine Love is given to
help heal his pain and to restore him to full mental health and wellbeing
Sadly we do not always have
this type of help on this earth and so for his greater good he will be saved
Robin Williams deserves to
laugh again without the fear of depression and where he can finally learn to
love himself
For his genius he will always
be remembered
Now peace will be restored to
him, so that he can continue his amazing work in another dimension
Robin Williams is not dead,
only now being healed properly at last!
Let us hope this will be some
small comfort to his family and friends?
A lion cub has led forest
rangers to its mother’s corpse in an Indian sanctuary
Animals have more
intelligence than we give them credit for
A forest guard, who saw a cub
hiding in the bushes, followed it and discovered the body of its mother on a
nearby hill
The cub, that is only 15
months old, was guarding his mother until the ranger returned with other
rangers to remove the carcass
The lioness was hurt in a
fight with other animals and died of her injuries
The forest ranger said that
the cub’s behaviour was ‘rare’ and ‘very peculiar’ something he had not
encountered before in lions
As these lions are in an
Indian sanctuary they do recognise the guards, which they see every day
The cub will now be placed in
another group or with another lioness to look after it. It will be fine
Animals of all species are
amazing and we, as humans, do not give them enough credit for the intelligence
that they have!
There is nowhere on this
earth one can hide if you have committed crimes in this world
A fugitive drug dealing
conman from Swansea, who has been on the run in South Africa, will be
extradited to the UK
Martin Evans, who swindled
ostrich farm investors out of £900,000, has appeared in court in Johannesburg
Evans was further jailed for
21 years for conspiracy to supply cocaine and fraudulent trading in 2006
Mr Evans brought in £3m worth
of ecstasy and cocaine into the UK
Evans later disappeared while
on weekend release from prison and went on the run. He was on the UK’s most
wanted list
He was tracked down by the
National Crime Agency and Interpol, and together with intelligence operations
in South Africa, he was caught
Another incident where there
is no place to hide is Bolivia
An ex-officer, accused of
crimes against humanity under Argentina’s military rule, is being extradited
back to Argentina
The officer, Jorge Horacio
Paez, has been accused of torture and aggravated homicide in Argentina’s
north-west province
An estimated 30,000 people
were tortured and killed during a period, known as the ‘Dirty War’
Mr Paez has been on the run
since 2011 and Interpol issued a red notice, the highest alert, for his arrest
Mr Paez played a direct role
in Operation Condor in the 1970s and ‘80s
The military Governments of
Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay collaborated to
eliminate their political opponents
His trial will now resume
Human rights abuses committed
under the Argentine military rule have led to the imprisonment of key figures
of the military junta
Their crimes are seen
throughout the world
Yet the lessons of slaughter
by the military to determine what Governments are in power are still not learnt
Egypt being a point in case,
there is no true democracy as it is continually being led by the military
The people have no say in the
matter at all
Their time will come. No one
is exempt from crimes against humanity – no matter how long it takes
The world continues to plunge
ever deeper into war, where conflict is rife on so many levels
It is Mankind who has lost
his way with tolerance and love for one another
Instead, hatred of every kind
is now the norm in certain areas of the world
Until we can settle our
differences and bring about what is fair and right, then these dissents will continue
forever more
All religions have love at
the heart to their teachings, yet little is shown in the battle-scared lands we
have today
All wish to live in peace and
sanctuary, but it is those hell-bent on power and destruction that is at the
very heart of our dilemmas
They feel no love in their
hearts, only the maiming and killing of others, which they strike deep into the
hearts of men and women
When they finally pass from
this world of ours into the next dimension, they will all be shown the lives they
have led
They will be shown the harm
they have caused to so many
It will be from that time
that they must atone for their actions in however many years it will take
They will have no other to
blame but themselves, as it was their hand which struck the first blow
Even past presidents and all
politicians, whose narrow-minded attitude brought people to war when there was
no need for it
It was only the power they
sought that enticed them into battle – nothing more
It is high time now that
countries start to see their hand in the battles that are around the world
today
To take over another’s
country and call it your own, as in colonisation, will always have
repercussions
It is their will which has
been forced onto the innocent indigenous people
Their will is not in harmony
with the environment of those people who reside there
Mankind has left so much
destruction around the world it is now that they are reaping the rewards of
their invasions
They wonder why there is so
much dissent and so much ingratitude for their invasion and why the hatred is
so powerful
Have we as a race learnt
nothing? War is not the answer
It is high time that fences
were mended and where harm has been inflicted, so new laws to bring about
harmony to be restored
Until the right action is put
in place to safeguard all the people, then nothing will ever change
Mankind will continue to be
cut down by those who feel they have a right to do so
In the next life nothing is
forgotten, all is seen and recorded explicitly and so Mankind cannot feign
ignorance
Everyone will be able to see
the full horror inflicted by their own hand
It is a truly humbling sight
and for all those, from all over the world that have had near death experiences,
will testify to these events
Nobody gets away with
anything and no religion will be able to save them as there is no religion in
the next dimension
Religion is a manmade concept
– not made by God
So it is high time we started
putting matters right before it is too late
Steven Salaita is a responsible
professor, whose outrage regarding the slaughter of women and children in Gaza
has cost him his job
His new position at the
University of Illinois on the American Indian Studies Course has now been
curtailed
Steven Salaita has been
tweeting, as so many of us are, to bring to the world’s attention to the
injustice in this situation in Gaza
This is in America, the land
of opportunity and of dreams, which advocates freedom of the press and of
speech and of civil liberties
Everybody can own a gun and
kill someone when they feel initially threatened & very little is done to
stop the sale of firearms in America
Yet Salaita is penalised for
publically voicing his outrage over the slaughter of innocent women and
children, which is not allowed
Many people the world over
are openly demonstrating about these atrocities and Steven Salaita is but one
of millions
Yet because the University
cannot deal with the truth of what is happening in our world, he has now lost
his position
Salaita is a brilliant and
ethical professor and not just some dimwit speaking out of turn
Professor Salaita believes
genuinely on the injustices being done to so many
The University of Illinois
are now being frowned upon
Is it now the case in America
that no one can voice moral outrage to the massacres being done?
In the land of the free this
does not equate
The University will see that
Steven Salaita’s petition for re-instatement increases and numbers go through
the roof
Should it only be that
injustice be done on America’s terms and not on what is morally right?
Maybe this University is out
of step with much of American thinking and should review their own consciences
in world affairs
It was after all the movement
against the US involvement in the Vietnam War, which began small
It was driven by peace
activists and leftist intellectuals on college campuses, who voiced their
concerns
Their voices later gained
national momentum and prominence in 1965
Anti-war marches and protests
organised by students for a Democratic Society attracted a widening base of
support
Over a three year period it
finally contributed to the ceasing of activity in Vietnam
The University of Illinois
should start listening to their students, who have a global conscience
If they are wise, they should
embrace the moral high ground and not to be seen to be lagging behind in
bigoted ignorance
America is now reaping the
rewards for putting their own puppet man in power
Because he was corruptible he
did not do what was best for the country, but what was best for him
Nouri al-Maliki has proven to
be an inept Prime Minister and has brought about a failed state
This Prime Minister continues
to produce further hatred between Sunnis and Shias
Al-Malaki has failed to bring
Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds into a governing coalition and is now waging war
against Sunni militants
His lack of governing has
allowed IS fighters to bring in their own form of radical law and order, which
is both severe and frightening
The IS recognise only their
form of Islam and are not prepared to allow people of different faiths to live
alongside in peace and harmony
Nouri al-Maliki has a lot to
answer for
He is fully responsible by
his power hungry and arrogant ways to see the harm he has brought on the Iraqi
people
America at the same time has
to take its fair share of the blame by not introducing an exit policy after the
war ended
By putting their own puppet
Prime Minister in power they continued making a mess of governing
Everybody reaps what they
sow, but it is always the innocent people who have to pay the ultimate price
Will the West NEVER learn?
As has been predicted the
ceasefire in Gaza has come to an end due to talks breaking down
There will NEVER be an end to
this conflict until those who sit around the table have impartial negotiators
They must use the law as its
criterion to bring both sanity and wisdom to the table
There has to be a two state
solution in place regardless of any opposition by Israel who’ve dictated policy
with their supporters since 1948
It is now time for the role
reversal and to allow Palestinians to be able to live on THEIR OWN LAND in
freedom
This must be without
retaliation from the aggressor, who started this process of ethnic cleansing
from day one
The world besides
Palestinians is waiting for this to happen
It can no longer be the
aggressors who hold power to dictate their policies forever more
Remember World, it was NOT
the Palestinians who invaded the Jews and took their land, it was the other way
around
There needs to be an
independence and where the world now has to speak on these moral and righteous
grounds
They must do so without the
heavy handedness of America and Israel calling the shots all the time
The double standards by
America regarding going into Iraq to bomb IS, who they say are massacring
thousands of people
Yet it is perfectly fine in
their eyes for Israelis to massacre Palestinians
It is these double
hypocritical standards that the world must now stand up to and speak out about
the aggressors
Otherwise we all could well
be in the same boat
How many lives need to be
lost before justice is seen to be done, not only in the eyes of Mankind, but in
God’s also?
Remember we are all created
equal in God’s image
Aggressors are born out of
retaliation to an unjust hardship as they see it
Until tolerance towards
humanity is shown so that we can all learn to live together, there will
continue to be wars and unrest
The diplomatic solutions are
breaking down constantly, because fairness is never on the negotiating table
There is only a one-sided
approach/agenda and that is why negotiations continue to breakdown
There needs to be a level
playing field for all sides to be satisfied
An independent body must be
assembled to make sure these terms and conditions remain intact
Respect must be maintained on
both sides to avoid extensive repercussions
It is high time the world
reacted to what is right and is no longer influenced by those who hold the big
stick!
The Liberian President Ellen
Johnson Sirleaf has declared a state of emergency as the country grapples with
the deadly Ebola virus
It has already been predicted
by us that disease will be the main killer over many wars
The devastation caused will
be more damaging to the world and it will be unstoppable
The Ebola virus is one of
many viruses that will continue to spread at an alarming rate causing both
panic and unrest
It will affect all classes of
society with no real solutions to eradicate it
Mankind has been glib in so
many ways, where war seems to override common sense on the ground
Wars, where Governments never
think out the long term problems or solutions, but boldly go in where angels
fear to tread
With disease now rampant in
so many countries and getting progressively worse, war no longer is the solution
to remove people
It is disease itself that
will eradicate all that is so wrong with the world at large
Governments have ignored the
plight of their people
Poverty, ignorance and
entrenched religious and cultural practices have helped to bring down humanity
with such a force
Aids and Bird Flu epidemics
are still in existence and all are hazardous in their own way
None of us know when we will
be hit and, as the strains of diseases are getting stronger, the antibiotics no
longer can combat these viruses
Mankind must start to put
matters right for the people of this world
They must treat them as they
should be treated or situations will continue to spiral out of control
None of us any longer can
afford to be complacent. We all must act responsibly
An amazing Argentinian lady,
who searches for people who were snatched as babies by the 1970s military
junta, has found her own grandson
Estela de Carlotto said
finding her grandson, a victim of the practice, was reparation for her and for
Argentina
She said he had come forward
for DNA testing, because he had doubts about his own identity
At the time the junta
snatched hundreds of babies from their opponents and gave them to sympathisers
to bring up
Mrs Carlotto’s daughter was a
left-wing activist. She was one of 30,000 activists, who was killed during the
1975-1983 military rule
Mrs Carlotto’s organisation
is The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo
It was formed to reunite
biological parents with hundreds of children born in prisons
The group said her grandson
was the 114th ‘stolen child’ they have found so far
There was a jubilant news
conference surrounded by some of the grandchildren recovered by her
organisation
Mrs Carlotto said, “I now have 14 grandchildren with me. The empty chair is now filled”
The photograph frame will
carry a picture of her grandson
She also said, “My grandson is handsome, an artist, a good
boy and well brought up and he searched me out”
Speaking to her grandson on
the phone, he was very emotional and he said he was very happy to finally find
his family
Mrs Carlotto said she would
leave her grandson in peace until he was ready to meet them
Mrs Carlotto continues her
important work to keep searching for other children, so that other grandmothers
can feel what she feels today
There are many courageous
people in the world whose dedication to do what is right against incredible
odds needs our support
They also need our praise for
their unstinting work
They are the true heroes for
humanity. It is their love and servitude that goes beyond the call of duty and
of human endurance
We all wish we had more like
them. Then humanity would be saved and not in the turmoil that we are now in
Aggression is such a male
related concept, with women being half of the human race they are not allowed
to get in over male dominance
When women are in power there
are fewer wars and more solutions found and solved
With women in charge we would
have more peace in the world and then love could finally enter in
It is women who are the
greater peace makers and the carers of this world after all
Shame on Ban Ki-moon, shame
on President Obama and John Kerry – the blood of all these victims in the Gaza
War is on your hands
The time has long passed for
disgruntled euphemisms over the Gaza War
There will be no peace
settlement, as Israel is hell bent on destroying a race so that it can obtain
all the land for itself
It is like the Bosnian War,
where Bosnian Serbs began a policy of cleansing large areas of non-Serbs
After the war a tribunal declared
that the cleansing was actually genocide and convicted Karadzic and his
military commander of war crimes
By the lack of decisive
action of the UN, Gaza becomes yet another failure like Srebrenica where murder
was daily carried out with impunity
Srebrenica is the West’s
greatest shame with every life lost underscoring the failure to act in time to
avert this mass slaughter
America and the UN must come
out of their box
They have created it by
unworkable diplomatic strategy in giving Israel even more arms and money
By insisting on traditional
peacekeeping principles the war keeps raging
The US Congress is bent on
taking the moral high ground in favour of Israel
They do so without even
taking responsibility for the consequences of their actions
The truth now is that Israel
has gone too far, the world sees it and the world knows it to be true
Israel is the cancer eating
away at American foreign policy and the UN credibility is now non-existent
Until Israel understands that
if they do not concede to outside solutions it will cost them dearly
There now needs to be
military action on the ground to maintain the peace and make good on all the
devastation
The UN must secure power
supplies to the people of Gaza and restore much needed water and sewage facilities
The UN must restore normal
civilian life with no more concentration camp embargos
The time for talks has long
passed with numerous attempts of peacekeeping objectives by John Kerry,
President Obama and Ban Ki-moon
All of which have failed,
because Israel does not want it!
This situation has been going
on since 1948, when will you do something about it?
Action over words is now the
priority unless, like Srebrenica, you continue to have blood on your hands and
a conscience of inaction
The world must now look at
itself as a whole, as opposed to lots of different countries all joined
together in one way or another
We are all human with many
different fears & aspirations where differences of opinions matter, but
equally there can be found common ground
It is this common ground that
needs to be built on
We must all recognise that we
need clean water to drink and where land is fertile for crops to be grown
Systems need to be put in
place to safeguard what is valuable to all of us and that is our individual
identities
We must learn to put aside
our fears and start to trust one another
If we can’t abide by these
common decencies then there is no hope any longer in this world of ours
As humans, we are all the
same. We need love to sustain us, as well as food and shelter
We need to be accepted for
who we are and to respect other beliefs besides our own
We are all linked in this
global soup where no one is alone, as we all depend on each other for our needs
The Animal Kingdom is an
equal partner in all this. We rely on animals for food and clothing
Animals sustain our needs, as
do plants and our natural surroundings
There has been greed and
abuse to our world and that is where we have suffered and the cost has been
dear by wrong decisions taken
It is now necessary to go
back to basics and to start to put our world right and this can only be done by
right thinking and right action
Nothing else is possible to
bring about a return to what is both decent and honest
We can no longer rely on our politicians,
where many have taken the wrong decisions
It is pressure and power that
consumes their very thinking
We must start to make this
world a better place for future generations
That means that we must all
take personal responsibility for our actions, both big and small
We have to show right
decision making and instruct others into how to behave
No longer can we be allowed
to sleepwalk through life and allow others to make the decisions for us
Others so often make
decisions which have had a detrimental effect on our lives
Wrong decisions by
Governments and bankers have had a crucifying effect on people all around the
world
Yet these people continue to
get away with it and nobody is held to account
There needs to be a change in
the mind-set of men, that irresponsible behaviour will be dealt with and that
it is no longer accepted
Punishments need to be hard
and effective
People need to start to
rebuild their lives without the interference of those who should know better,
but chose not to be
Corruption on so many levels
is now being exposed and situations are turning
Mankind can start to make a
better life without the constraints of greed and wrong doing
We all must do our bit to
expose what is wrong and to help put it right, if we hope to live in harmony at
all!
A ceasefire was arranged for
72 hours in Gaza for needed humanitarian aid to go in, it only lasted for three
and half hours
It is vital that solutions
are found to an over sixty year conflict
The world has simply walked
away and left the Palestinian people in this holocaust of a situation
The West is totally
responsible for all this devastation when the British army withdrew from
Palestine in 1948
They left all their military
equipment there to be readily picked up by Israeli soldiers, who then went on
the rampage of ethnic cleansing
They wiped out villages to
make room for Israeli settlements and occupation
THE ONLY POWER HERE IS
ISRAEL. They hold all the cards and call all the shots all the time
There is no equal situation here
as Israel must always have the upper hand. What they say simply goes
What is so deplorable is that
President Obama and John Kerry are imploring Israel to stop killing
Palestinians
At the same time the US is
supplying weapons like F16 warplanes and heavy 155mm self-propelled guns, which
violates the US Arms Export Act
Apparently no one in
Washington dares admit to this
At the same time, America is
resuming military payoffs to Egypt’s brutish military dictatorship
All this to keep Palestinians
locked up in the Gaza Ghetto. It is
double standards all the time
After five decades of patient
work by pro-Israel lobbyists, Israel now gives the US congress their matching
orders on the Mideast
There is growing anger around
the globe over Israel’s savaging of Palestinians, but Americans won’t see this
Can Washington act to enforce
America’s national interests and common humanity?
Not likely! They did not do
it with the apartheid situation in South Africa, so they won’t do it with the
Palestinians
Israel has long timed its
punitive assaults to sync with the US elections cycle
America has upcoming November
elections and Israel knows it
Netanyahu tried to get a
Republican into office, who would be more favourable to him as opposed to a
Democrat
Israel wants to crush Hamas
into dust and tell its foreign critics to go to hell. They are Israel’s
bitterest foe after Lebanon’s Hezbollah
Palestinians made the mistake
of resorting to rockets and mortars in this war. They are no match for Israel’s
powerful weapons
Israeli worldwide supporters
portray the Gaza siege as a battle between equals
They don’t give the truth,
which is that Israel is shooting fish in a barrel
It does not matter to Israel
that they are violating US law – the Arms Control Export Act – by using US
weapons against Gaza’s civilians
Nor does Israel care that it
violates International Law and the Geneva Convention
Or that much of the world
sees the assault on Gaza as a crime against humanity
It is the US/Canadian
Governments and media, which are on Israel’s side, therefore Israel can do no
wrong
The current Israeli attacks
have shut down Gaza’s sewage, water and power grid
A tactic the US used in Iraq
in 1991, which caused the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children
These attacks are designed to
break the will of the Gaza’s people, so they will overthrow Hamas
Netanyahu has used the Gaza
crisis to repeat his objective, which is to never accept even a mini Palestinian
state on the West Bank
To many Israelis,
Palestinians are simply wild animals who must be caged up
By attacking Gaza, Netanyahu
has made any Israeli-Arab peace deal impossible and has shown America he means
business while they do nothing
For the world to see justice
done, it is the responsibility of the West and the UN to get together a deal
with a UN peace keeping force
This neutral force must be
present and enforce the law
We have here people, a David
and Goliath situation, where the odds are firmly staked in Israel’s favour
This allows them to act with
impunity, totally disregarding any law while the world looks on
I ask, as so many people ask,
why is it that the law can be brought in against other nations of the world,
but never for Israel?
Who out there has the teeth
to do something about it and bring about a solution?
Clearly it is no longer in
Man’s incompetent hands and it will take a superior force to bring about a
solution!
Let us pray it is not long in
coming!
