  • Before that, on 17 May 2011, the Israeli foreign ministry released a statement saying that “lawyers in the UK have formed a new group called UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI).” It since appears to have been removed from the ministry’s website. Turner told MEE: “We are an independent organisation and are not linked to the Israeli government.” Of the 2012 seminar, he said: “It was an excellent seminar, with distinguished speakers and very informative.”… UKLFI earlier this month wrote to the British government threatening legal action unless it reverses its decision to suspend 30 out of 350 arms licences to Israel. Jonathan Turner, who is still the CEO of UKLFI, publicly called the Labour government’s move a “political decision to appease members of the public who hate Israel based on misinformation and biased media coverage of the war. As such, it was a misuse of the power granted by the legislation”.

    Lol. “Antisemites!”




  • There was an article posted in another magazine thread that spoke about needing to iterate America’s core values. What are they? Freedom to starve and be homeless, or be locked up and become a chattel slave, or work several jobs as s wage slave; freedom of press owned by a handful of superwealthy people and corporations, many of whom are in the energy and arms industries; freedom of low quality food that contain carcinogenic pesticide residues, colors, flavors and growth hormones and routine antibiotics. Freedom to die from easily treatable conditions because you can’t afford care of medications, even if you purchase mandated Medicare?

    Justice? For whom? The people who are incarcerated because of fabricated evidence of having to take plea deals because you can’t afford a good lawyer? The ones executed, despite exculpatory evidence? How about executive branch government members who lead insurrection, or legislators that make insider trading legal for themselves but not us, or of the legislative branch who take gifts of great monetary value and have loans forgiven?

    How about too big to fail industries?

    Freedom of speech? Two tiered.

    Profit at the expense of all else; making sure the USD remains the world reserve currency, by manufacturing fake wmds to invade a sovereign nation, so that nation would not convert their UN food-for-oil account from petrodollar to Petroeuro? Taking foreign money to defeat more progressive candidates that would absolutely vote not to support genocide with money, weapons, air support? Conveniently forgetting concern over certain nations’ infatuation with Nazi idealism to continue the tired red scare propaganda?

    Guns!

    What are America’s core values?



  • I’m into mythologies, because imo, they chronical the evolution of our intellectual - and by extension, psychological - development. I’ve noticed on YouTube that videos of other regions’ mythos are more prolific than the global south, and guess colonization may have influenced the information we have.

    It may be pareidolia, but it’s fascinating to me how ancient symbols mimic modern scientific findings, for instance Moses ‘/Hermes’ staff and the Norse rune inguz, mimicking the DNA double helix. At any rate, it’s fun to ponder.









  • I replied with thanks, for your kindness, but fat -finger deleted it, when I went to edit, so again, thanks so much, for your kindness!

    But we didn’t follow through with programming or sufficient resources to deal with the core issues that people face."

    Well, it was a step, but the other foot has to follow. It’s “housing first,” not “housing fixes everything, done.” We have to stop running societies like businesses for short gain, while running it into the ground and outsourcing the issues to third parties, like prison -for-profit via chattel slavery, before the few percent have us all being chattel slaves.
