Fighting the proscription of Palestine Action has become more urgent as eight brave activists enter the crucial period of their hunger strike.
12 January has finally been set for the court hearing on holding a Scottish judicial review of the proscription of Palestine Action.
I am frankly terrified for the hunger strikers.
- Qesser Zuhrah
- Amu Gib
- Heba Muraisi
- Jon Cink
- Teuta Hoxha
- Kamran Ahmed
- Muhammad Umer Khalid
- Lewie Chiaramello (a diabetic so on modified hunger strike or he would die very rapidly).
The Starmer government is quite prepared to let them die: to emphasise devotion to Israel, to show their Zionist donors they are earning their money, and to reinforce the hardline macho image they believe appeals to Reform voters.

Indeed I have no doubt that Starmer, Mahmood, Lammy and Cooper hope for their deaths as a political positive; just as Thatcher thought she would win plaudits for facing down IRA hunger strikers.
It is important to state that none of the hunger striking prisoners has been convicted of anything – all are on remand – and none of them was in any way involved in the incident in which a policewoman was allegedly injured.
The coordinated response from government and other Zionist troll farms and stenographers is that none of the hunger strikers deserve sympathy as “a policewoman was hit by a sledgehammer”.
It remains astonishing to me that this assertion is constantly and stridently made by the state and its myriad acolytes, despite the rules against prejudicing a jury trial. This stance ignores the detailed accounts of the trial itself which paint a far more complex picture.
As well as the real danger to the hunger strikers, there are thousands of entirely peaceful protestors facing terrorism charges simply for speech. These are life-changing, bringing not just jail sentences but loss of employment, debanking and travel restrictions.
All this while the genocide of Palestinians continues, with appalling conditions in Gaza, stringent restrictions on aid (which is still at less than half the required levels), and continued Israeli bombing – despite the “ceasefire”.
The judicial review of Palestine Action in the High Court of England and Wales appears to have been “fixed”. The last-minute change of judges – including the total removal of the original judge from the panel – and the conduct of the review, have left little room for optimism.
My own most striking impression from that judicial review is the difference in how the judges treated the counsel for Huda Ammori and the counsel for the UK government.
Counsel for Huda Ammori, Raza Husain KC, was treated with impatience and at times disdain. That is difficult to quantify, but one thing that could indeed be measured was this:
Every time Raza Husain KC referred the judges to a passage in a past judgment or other quoted authority, they quickly skated over it and moved on, frequently with a phrase like “Yes, we have seen it” or “We are familiar with that”.
Every time James Eadie KC for the government referred the judges to a written authority, they ostentatiously physically found it in their bundle and took time to peruse it, on one occasion taking over a minute to demonstrate they were reading and absorbing at the government’s direction, before Eadie moved on.
The contrast was stark. Not just once, but over and over.
My favourite moment in the English judicial review was when Raza Hussain quoted the Proscription Advisory Committee’s recommendation to Yvette Cooper that Palestine Action should be proscribed because “Palestine Action kept hiring good lawyers” and defendants kept being acquitted as it was difficult to prove guilt to the criminal standard.
Yes, they really did say that. Palestine Action should be proscribed because it was being found by juries not to be criminal.
By proscribing Palestine Action, this makes it a criminal offence of strict liability to support it, whether or not you were doing anything that a jury would have found criminal before the proscription.
Raza Hussain KC described this as “Not the Proscription Advisory Committee’s finest hour”. I thought much more could have been made of it, but a feature of the English judicial review – and I think a mistake – is that there was no playing to the gallery of public opinion.
It was conducted as a legal conversation between the lawyers and the judges, often incomprehensible to the onlooker because it was based on documents to which the public do not have access. Yet there is an extremely concerned public looking on.
The demands of the hunger strikers largely refer to the appalling prison conditions in which they are kept, despite the fact that none of them have been convicted and none of them have previous convictions, or can reasonably be said to present a danger to the public, or be a particular flight risk.
- Immediate bail/release on bail for the remand prisoners (many held longer than standard limits).
- The right to a fair trial, including access to all relevant documents and an end to demonization or “terrorist connection” claims.
- An end to prison censorship/restrictions on communications (e.g., blocking letters, phone calls, and books).
- De-proscription (lifting the ban) on Palestine Action as a terrorist organization.
- Shutdown of Elbit Systems’ UK sites (Israel’s largest arms manufacturer, accused of supplying weapons used in Gaza).
On right to a fair trial, it is worth noting that there is huge evidence of outside influence on the prosecutions, and there are communications between the police and prosecutorial authorities on the one hand, and Elbit, the Israeli Embassy, and various Zionist groups on the other, which have either not been released to the defence, or have only been released in very redacted form.
In the day of the Filton trial which I attended, I found the parts the jury was not allowed to know (when they were sent out) particularly interesting. I cannot tell you more than that until the trial is over.
We can help lift the proscription of Palestine Action if we win the judicial review in Scotland. We have finally been given a court date of 12 January at 9:30am in Edinburgh.
This hearing is to decide whether there will be a judicial review. It will look at only two points.
Firstly, whether I as an individual have sufficient connection to Palestine Action, or have my rights particularly infringed by the proscription, in order to have standing in the case.
The UK Government is arguing that I have no connection to Palestine Action. (I wish they would tell their police that!!)
We will however also be relying on the Supreme Court judgment in Walton vs Scottish ministers, which states that it “is sufficient that the applicant has a genuine concern about the legality of the act or decision, and that the issues raised are of general public importance”.
The second ground to be heard is whether there can be a separate judicial review in Scotland when there is already one in the High Court of England and Wales.
Our view is that the principle has already been established in the Joanna Cherry and Gina Miller cases, where judicial reviews in London and Edinburgh came to opposing decisions on the legality of Boris Johnson’s prorogation of parliament.
I am resident in Scotland, where the High Court of England and Wales has no jurisdiction. If my rights are infringed I am entitled, even within the United Kingdom, to the protection of my own courts of my own nation in first instance.
Scots law is different. Its intellectual basis and maxims are different. There is a reason why lawyers legally qualified to plead in courts in England and Wales are not automatically qualified to appear in Scotland; and vice versa. The Court of Session is not inferior to the High Court.
We intend to submit substantive evidence of the oppression of numerous individuals in Scotland as a result of the proscription.
We will need the maximum public support inside and outside the court of session at Parliament House, Edinburgh on 12 January from 9am.

Unfortunately we will not be able to go ahead if we do not raise sufficient funds. The crowdfunder has got us into court, but needs to supercharge to get us further. Please do help:

Netanyahu has finally announced there will be an inquiry into October 7th… that he’s heading!
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/20/netanyahu-finally-announces-october-7-inquiry-why-are-israelis-furious
We know from as far back as tthe end of November/beginning of December 2023 that only one (Israeli) baby was killed on October 7th, ten-month old Mila Cohen, albeit unintentionally, and we know this from Israeli records. But just to remind you, this is what was being disseminated a couple of days after the 40 beheaded babies story hit the headlines around the world (the following passages are from a Times of Israel article on October 12th, 2023, headlined Netanyahu’s office releases horrifying images of infants murdered by Hamas):
The Prime Minister’s Office took the extraordinary step on Thursday of releasing gruesome photos of murdered babies to reporters and the public, seeking to underscore the atrocities carried out by Hamas in its savage rampage through southern Israel on Saturday.
The PMO said the photos released were some of what was shown earlier Thursday to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, adding that they are “difficult-to-see images of babies murdered and burned by the monsters of Hamas. Hamas are not human. Hamas is ISIS.”
In a conversation with Biden on Wednesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the president: “They took dozens of children, bound them up, burned them and executed them….”
“This was just one of Hamas’s countless acts of terror – in a litany of brutality and inhumanity that, yes, brings to mind the worst of ISIS. Babies slaughtered. Bodies desecrated…..”, Blinken said.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/netanyahus-office-releases-horrifying-images-of-infants-murdered-by-hamas/
It was all lies and concocted and contrived, and I have little doubt that it was all concocted BEFORE the attack.
In a Le Monde article posted on April 3rd, 2024, it says the following:
But amidst this flood of accounts of murder, looting and mutilation, one rumor took on extraordinary proportions: 40 decapitated babies were allegedly found in the Kfar Aza kibbutz, one of the communities most impacted by the attack. This story, and its variants, went viral like never before, going as far as being mentioned by the White House. However, in the horror of this massacre, in which 38 minors including two infants were killed, there were never 40 decapitated babies. Not in Kfar Aza nor in any other kibbutz, the Israeli government press office confirmed to Le Monde.
https://www.lemonde.fr/en/les-decodeurs/article/2024/04/03/40-beheaded-babies-the-itinerary-of-a-rumor-at-the-heart-of-the-information-battle-between-israel-and-hamas_6667274_8.html
And Biden and Blinken knew damn well that it was all lies!
PS As for the Le Monde headline, needless to say there was no information battle between Israel and Hamas, just the vast majority of the MSM in the West disseminating Israel’s lies and falsehoods and atrocity propaganda.
Who killed Mila Cohen if she existed? Nothing can be put past a fascist colonial regime that operates a “Hannibal Directive” requiring the killing of its own soldiers.
She existed Brian, and was shot and killed in her mother’s arms when a Hamas fighter fired a shot through the door. Her mother survived.
A tragedy. A wholly innocent child got killed. But her mother should have known better than to take her to a big event where members of the supremacist culture would have a big rave-up outside the femce of a concentration camp – a fence that supremacists had routinely shot across to kneecap young incarcerated boys. You can’t say the mother was unaware of the Nazi-style arrangement in Palestine.
How do you know the shooter was in Hamas rather than in one of the other organisations that took part in the camp breakout?
Also are there non-supremacist sources on this?
If was a shot through a door, how does anyone know who fired it?
In an article on The Intercept on December 14th, 2023, entitled Joe Biden Keeps Repeating His False Claim That He Saw Pictures of Beheaded Babies, it says the following:
On December 12, at a reelection campaign event at the Salamander hotel in Washington, D.C., Biden said, “I saw some of the photographs when I was there — tying a mother and her daughter together on a rope and then pouring kerosene on them and then burning them, beheading infants, doing things that are just inhuman — totally, completely inhuman.”
https://theintercept.com/2023/12/14/israel-biden-beheaded-babies-false/
I have no doubt whatsoever that Biden (and Blinken et al) knew that the 40 beheaded babies story (and other such atrocity claims) was false (and the pictures fake), and an invention, from the outset, but even if we went with a scenario in which he believed it, it was in the public domaine as of late November 2023 that only one baby had been killed on October 7th, and he would of course have been made aware of that, and yet he was still repeating the B/S on December 12th.
Alan Howard
Donald Trump was show pictures of dead ducks in Salisbury.
The young child is agreed by all parties to have been killed.
The rapes of Israeli women are false.
The burnt babies and babies hung on washing lines are false also.
Does any one ( even the MSM) think that if Israel had ultimate proof of these atrocities that they would not exhibit them to the world?
Definitely not, but Piers Morgan said they were true as, like Biden, he had seen the ‘ evidence’
Meanwhile in Wonder Land 17 people were killed by falling buildings in Gaza.
A Biblical Flood was tossed around on BBC Verify as if all this death and destruction was literally just that:
A biblical Visitation by God.
As usual the BBC shrugged its shoulders to its viewers and said:
In the interest of balance we are not allowed to take aside or a view – but, what do you viewers think?
No -one to blame – it’s just a consequence of ‘ War’
as if you could describe the flattening and torture of Gazans as a ‘War’
I truly despise the BBC more than any other MSM outlet.
Afterthought: Something just occured to me, and that is that when the story about the 40 beheaded babies first broke, there was nothing about them having then been burned as well. And yet just a couple of days later we’ve got Blinken referring to ‘babies murdered and burned’, and Netanyahu telling Biden that “They took dozens of children, bound them up, burned them and executed them….”. And what occured to me is that they were preparing the ground so to speak for the MSM for later on, as in this Times of Israel article on December 4th, 2023, with the following headline and sub-headline:
14 kids under 10, 25 people over 80: Up-to-date breakdown of Oct 7 victims we know about
Age, gender data for most civilian victims of Hamas onslaught, based on media tally, provides a picture authorities aim to complete as they continue efforts to identify bodies
They had to equivocate (if that’s the right word) because they couldn’t come right out and say that’s more-or-less the complete tally, bar 4 or 5, because they had to allow for the 40 beheaded babies, the 40 beheaded babies who were in fact not only beheaded but burned as well, and so it’s gonna take a while longer yet to identify them all, you see.
Imagine if one day in the not too distant future practically everyone in the country learns that not only was the 40 beheaded babies story a massive great Big Lie and atrocity propaganda, as such, but that the MSM no doubt realised that it was atrocity propaganda more-or-less immediately (just the way – the process – whereby it came to light is totally implausible), and that along with the leading politicians of all the major parties, the MSM have kept the fact it was a falsehood from the Britsh public despite knowing since the beginning of December 2023 (at the very latest) that it was a falsehood, and that only ONE baby died on October 7th, killed when a Hamas fighter shot through a door, and that the MSM have deliberately withheld that information from the public so that they will continue to believe that Hamas did that. And, so that Netanyahu had free range to kill and maim hundreds of thousands of women and children and infants and babies and the old and frail, and non-combatant men, and turn Gaza into a wasteland, and put the whole population through a never-ending nightmare of nightmares.
I will certainly be doing all I can to that effect, and help to make it happen.
The only person still peddling beheaded babies/:babies in ovens blx in 2025 is the US Democrats’ presidential hope Pete Buttigieg.
It is the ‘mass rape’ hoax that remains ubiquitous, rehearsed at any opportunity by Starmer, Lammy and British media commentators.
They are all quite aware there is no evidence of a single rape on Oct 7 but will keep repeating the genocidal lie forever, while the IDF continues to rape and rape and rape.
OTOH. it is quite possible nowadays for a state actor to generate almost any type of image using AI. Just consider the fake Trump videos and the many Sydney Sweeney videos online. I’m sure such images could be generated that looked real enough to fool the average politician, let alone a senile one.
It used to be said that a picture never lies, that is no longer the case.
Naturally, no Israeli of any importance should be expected to be convicted of any criminal action. This reminds me of a cartoon at the time of Steve Biko’s death in apartheid South Africa in 1977. A witness is asked: ‘Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth despite all evidence to the contrary?’
Sure enough, the inquest into Steve Biko found that the death could not be attributed to any crime committed by anyone, Subsequently the late Donald Woods, journalist and friend of Biko was placed under house arrest and prevented from writing. After escaping the country with his family, he wrote the books Biko and Asking for trouble, later made into the film Cry Freedom.
Perhaps something similar should be done for Dr. Adnan al-Bursh, who should never be forgotten.
Netanyahu certainly has chutzpah, on Thursday, the Prime Minister’s Office announced that Netanyahu would be pushing ahead with legislation to establish a politically-appointed inquiry into the failures of October 7th 2023, with him at the helm, with parliament Speaker Amir Ohana, a close ally of the prime minister, expected to play a key role in selecting its members. Naturally this has not gone down well with Israels opposition or the public with 3 out of 4 people polled saying there should be an independent state inquiry.
Writing on social media, Yair Golan, the leader of the Democrats, wrote, “This isn’t ‘conflict of interest,’ it’s organised crime under the guise of the law. The man responsible for the greatest disaster in our history isn’t looking for answers, he’s looking for an alibi.”
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/20/netanyahu-finally-announces-october-7-inquiry-why-are-israelis-furious
Things are not looking good for the murdering war criminal Netanyahu under indictment in Israel and at the ICC, scum of the earth.
However, the overwhelming majority of Israelis are more than happy with the genocide of the Palestinians. Don’t let these stories fool you into thinking the average Israeli is a decent human being.
Ending Israeli apartheid will need American sanctions, and that means that an important scene of activism will have to be America, after the Trump regime – if American democracy and its ideals survive. Also, on both sides of the Atlantic it will be the younger generation that will be persuadable regarding justice in Palestine, and so the real hope is with them.
Therefore American youth need to be reached. People like Mamdani and AOC may be the key, and their rise is a hopeful sign for the future.
Are they trying to replicate Julian Assanges illegal and outrageous treatment on the non violent protesters on hungerstrikers?
This Government disgusts me, talking of peacekeeping in Ukraine, when all I hear is attack loops and dog fighting being practised over our heads by UkUs fighter jets. I suppose its Starmers way of saying merry xmas.
Surely,if you want a ceasefire and protect it, you do not need fighter jets doing aerobatics over Donbass.
Wishing you all a happy winter soldtice, spring is on its way.

December 21, 2025 at 10:25
How would you protect a ceasefire if not by having fighters in the air and standing by?
Trust that nice Gospodin Putin to keep his word?
Happy Solstice to all from me too..
When talking about people not keeping their word, one could usefully recall James Baker, Hans-Dietrich Genscher et al on the subject of NATO not moving eastwards an inch.
Thanks Luis, for the backstabbers and empirical hangers on rather like paying more taxes to waste on arms, corruption and war, rather than spending money on our economic recovery, sustainable energies, mental health services, childcare, education and more.
Taxpayers are backing up a zionist cabal in the cabinet, as for local elections…we don’t need them as long as local Government cannot make their minds up to support those who vote for them, they feel they are owed a job, perks and more money in perpetum.
Happy to help answer your question, JK, but only if you help me first : how was the neutrality of Finland (1945) and Austria (1955) preserved?
Were there “fighters in the air and standing by” – from either side?
Finland and Austria both had contingency plans in case of invasion and each could quickly mobilise over 200,000 troops, mainly militia, Finland has compulsory conscription.
Thank you for your reply, Pears – may I take it you are standing in for JK temporarily?
But to the facts!
I’m sure that Austria and Finland had/have contingency plans. I imagine most countries do.
But did they have foreign troops stationed on their soil to assure their neutrality and protect them against the USSR? Foreign planes flying around to keep the peace and deter the aggressor?
Yes, in fact both countries had (and I believe still have) conscription. The peace treaties allowed for that but, funnily enough, didn’t allow for a large standing army.
PS – when JK himself gets round to answering, I hope he’ll do a little better!

Hi Luis.
Thanks but I’m waiting for a reply from nevermind.
(It can be difficult to keep track of who posted a reply to whom!)
How can conscription not be compulsory?
Having fighters in the air and boots on the ground (Starmer) will guarantee those fighters will be shot down and the UK troops will be killed by the Russian military. This much Putin has said he will do. If you do not believe him FAFO. Putin did not launch this SMO in order that NATO troops can de facto occupy Ukraine, even a rump one, this is the major reason the SMO was started in the first place. No NATO troops on Russia’s doorstep, just like the US would not allow Russian or Chinese bases on the Mexican or Canadian border. The Monroe doctrine was last militarily enforced by the US in the Cuban Missile crisis in 1962. Venezuela this month 2025, here we go again.
Having fighters in the air and boots on the ground [Starmer] will guarantee those fighters will be shot down and the UK troops will be killed by the Russian military.
Ah yes the all powerful Russian military with their infallible and unstoppable wunderwaffe, who still haven’t managed to prevail against Ukraine.
That is why it is called a SMO and not a war. Russia has the means to literally flatten Ukraine, rather like the ‘shock and awe’ the US does when they attack inferior forces. You sound like Boris Johnson who shortly after the war started flew to Kyiv and told Zelenski not to do a deal (already penciled in) and encouraged him to keep fighting, fast forward nearly 4 years and 1 million dead Ukrainians and the loss of up to 10 million Ukrainians who have left the country both you and Boris have still not seen enough bloodshed, shame on both of you.
Harry Law
December 21, 2025 at 14:56
Gawd bless Gospodin Putin for his restraint in not “flattening” Ukraine. /sarc
What could he do that he has not already done?
Pears
I am always amused by people who assure us that the Russians are going to come for us next (they’re so powerful!) and then crow with delight that the Russians “still haven’t manage to prevail” against Ukraine (they’re so weak!)
Do you think there might be a small contradiction there?
Or even a big one?
That POS from South Carolina Lindsey Graham is always saying ‘Russians dying’ the ‘best money US has spent’. Other people dying in a proxy war is alright for Graham and Boris Johnson, they are now lining up Taiwan as the next proxy stooges, to die until the last Ukrainian and/or Taiwanese, life is cheap for these disgusting creatures, so long as it is not their lives.
Luis
There are certain questions Pears deems off-limits/ inappropriate.
Please be respectful and play the ball.
That is why it is called a SMO and not a war.
Even the Kremlin gave up on this pretence in March 2024 and now refer to the conflict for what it is and always has been. A war.
https://stories.state.gov/what-is-a-special-military-operation/
Militarily further Russian aggression is unlikely whilst they’re pinned down in Ukraine, I doubt even Putin is mad enough to open a war or two fronts but you can never be sure. The danger comes from the misguided who naively believe that appeasement will bring about a secure and lasting peace. Once able to scale back deployment in Ukraine experienced troops will be available for use elsewhere and Russia has been making some aggressive noises over the Baltic states.
https://ecfr.eu/publication/the-bear-in-the-baltics-reassessing-the-russian-threat-in-estonia/
A greater risk is the possibility of ‘hybrid’ warfare: cyber attacks, sabotage, interference with internal politics and propaganda such as we’ve already experienced in the UK.
“What could he do that he has not already done?”
Do what the US did to Fallujah to every Ukranian city?
“A greater risk is the possibility of ‘hybrid’ warfare: cyber attacks, sabotage, interference with internal politics and propaganda such as we’ve already experienced in the UK.”
And that’s just from the UK’s own government and security services.
“Once able to scale back deployment in Ukraine experienced troops will be available for use elsewhere and Russia has been making some aggressive noises over the Baltic states.”
Do you really believe that Russia intends to invade Europe? You do realise, don’t you, that Europe is f*cked if that is the case. Ukraine’s army has more deserters than the total number of troops of the armies of Britain, France and Germany combined and that Russia has hypersonic missiles that NATOs current weapon systems cannot intercept. Russia’s “invasion” of Europe is not going to be T90s grinding across the central plains, it’s going to be every capital and base taken out with missiles. One day would be all it would take.
“The danger comes from the misguided who naively believe that appeasement will bring about a secure and lasting peace.”
No, the danger comes from the misguided who naively believe their own propaganda and are ready to rush into a war for which their country is totally unprepared, just like Britain did at the start of WWII, moreover against an opponent militarily much stronger. If you saw a burly tattooed skinhead much larger than you beating up someone half his size and you shouted at him to try and distract him, with the result that he then advanced on you, would you 1) run away as fast as you can, 2) launch into the attack, because aggression mustn’t be appeased or 3) try and talk your way out of it?
Russia’s “invasion” of Europe is not going to be T90s grinding across the central plains, it’s going to be every capital and base taken out with missiles.
If it’s that easy why don’t they do it to Ukraine? Principally because that doesn’t constitute an invasion and it wouldn’t work anyway.
The Allies aren’t fighting Ukraine, that war was won in 48-72 hours; they’re fighting Nato and winning.
Pears
“If it’s that easy why don’t they do it to Ukraine? Principally because that doesn’t constitute an invasion and it wouldn’t work anyway.”
Let me try to help you. Perhaps they don’t do it because they don’t want to annihilate Ukraine To want to do that would be Hitlerian and you will surely agree that Putin is no Hitler. Perhaps all Putin wants to do is what he has been saying for the last four or five years (and, arguably, ever since the Munich Security Conference well over a decade ago)?
All war is hybrid and always has been. It’s not a useful concept unless someone needs reminding that war is not a game of draughts.
The constant western whingeing about Russian psychological warfare would itself be ludicrous (advantageous for Russia), were it not that western rulers want a scared population so they can keep tightening the collar. Many won’t know what’s hit them when Son of Covid is deployed. (It won’t necessarily even be bio related, but bio can have huge psych punch.)
Perhaps they don’t do it because they don’t want to annihilate Ukraine To want to do that would be Hitlerian
But it wouldn’t be ‘Hitlerian’ to annihilate the whole of Europe? Four to five years ago Putin was saying he had no intention of invading Ukraine.
https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/12/russia-kremlin-ukraine-nato-threats-521031
“How would you protect a ceasefire if not by having fighters in the air and standing by?”
The only way to stop a ceasefire being broken is not to have any military there to break it.
That would require both sides to withdraw so you recognise that a full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine is necessary to achieve a lasting peace?
No, I recognise that a full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine will be possible when there is a lasting peace and there will be no lasting peace until Ukraine’s army is mostly stood down and Ukraine is neutral.
Ukraine’s army is no threat to Russia and they’re never going to want to leave themselves defenceless.
If that is the case, then why do they need a large one? Who do they need to defend themselves from? Having the largest army in Europe didn’t stop them being invaded by Russia, nor did their army stop their democratically elected government being toppled in a US-sponsored coup.
Whether you like it or not,here are only three ways the current war can end, a Russian victory, in which case, they get to dictate the terms, a negotiated settlement, in which case ditto, pretty well or World War Three. Which is your preferred option?
If Russia gets to dictate terms then it’s not a negotiated settlement.
I’ll give you a fourth option:- Russia collapses from within.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZLb0ddKxvE&t=199s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbTDbAosRVM
Sorry, I should have remembered English wasn’t your strong point. If you read my comment again you will see that dictating terms and a negotiated settlement were alternatives.
My alternatives were the likely ones. There are, of course, highly unlikely ones, including the second coming of Christ, and the lion lying down with the lamb and, presumably, Kaya Callas dancing cheek to cheek with Vladimir Putin.
There’s the matter of the six disputed territories. Best not forget that by calling them part of “Ukraine”.
Any fighters circling over the DMZ in Korea?
Since there will be no ceasefire, the question does not arise.
Don’t worry, it’s all PR hype. Any foreign planes or military in Ukraine will be eliminated.

I think that you’ll find that hundreds of (Russkiy) planes and hundreds of thousands of (Russkiy) military have been in Ukraine (and have been converted to metal scrap and human fertiliser respectively).
Or do Russkiy planes and military not count as “foreign” in your view?
A rather “tankie” view of the war imo.

Tankies very much for your attention to this post.
Hi JK
Still waiting for your thoughts, aka your reply.
You know, to my question about Finnish and Austrian neutrality.
Were foreign troops stationed in those countries to ensure their neutrality and fend off the Soviets
No rush, take your time…..but not too much time.
It would save time and stress just to ignore such posts.
“Or do Russkiy planes and military not count as “foreign” in your view?
No, but they aren’t going to be in Ukraine after the war is over.
Because it won’t be Ukraine.

Why won’t Russkiy planes and military be in Ukraine once the war is over?
A Russkiy withdrawal?

Well, duh, with a neutral and demilitarised Ukraine, they won’t be necessary. It’s only the US that thinks it needs military bases in every country in the world.

Bayard, you forgot to include “deNazified” in your list (neutral and demilitarised) of (presumably desirable in your view) impositions on Ukraine by the Russkiys.
So a Ukraine with no foreign alliances, incapable of defending itself and with a government chosen by Putin…
Perhaps award Putin the 2026 FIFA Peace Prize and Medal as well.
Oh yes, a public apology from all Zapad Heads of State and Government to Gospodin Putin?
And Life Membership of Trump’s Mar a Lago Golf Club.
That should do it.
FFS…
Two items don’t make a list. Ukraine wouldn’t need de-nazification if it hadn’t been Nazified first by a foreign power and had its democratically elected government replaced by another put in place by that power. But, I suppose, that was all to the good as the US was just “spreading democracy”. Funny how “democracy” always ends up with lots of non-Aryans dead.
The exchange ratio is 10 US-Ukronazis to 1 decent person.

You what?
Sadly, it’s not the Ukronazis that are dying, they are all safe in the “blocking battalions” behind the lines.
Waiting for that bit of propaganda to surface.

Squeeth thinks he’s referring to the ‘kill ratio’ of Ukrainian vs Russian KIA. There are various figures for this, Scott ‘it’ll all be over in a week’ Ritter puts it at 36 to 1 but as usual doesn’t quote any sources. It’s a desperate tactic the Americans used during the Vietnam war. With nothing else to measure they published regular body counts in an attempt to convince the American public that as long as they were killing more Vietnamese than the Vietnamese were killing Americans then they were winning. Sadly it didn’t quite work out.
“Waiting for that bit of propaganda to surface.”
Nice try, but no cigar. From stopfake.org’s “About us” tab:
“The nongovernmental organization Media Reforms Center is an educational platform, founded by Mohyla School of Journalism at National University of ‘KyivMohyla Academy’, ”
As Mandy Rice-Davies said “They would say that, wouldn’t they”.
So how about some reliable source to back up the claim? We’re often told that Ukraine doesn’t have enough troops so where are these ‘barrier troops’ coming from?
Berletic uses US-Ukronazi and CommercialPrivateEquitybbc research to arrive at 10:1.
Sigh, ypu amd your “sources”. You don’t need to be able to show what’s right to show what isn’t right.
Sigh, you and your “sources”. You don’t need to be able to show what’s right to show what isn’t right.

Regarding the death of Mila Cohen – the only (Israeli) baby killed on October 7th – I’d just like to make the circumstances of her death clear The following was generated by the Search Assistant:
:Circumstances of Mila Cohen’s Death
Attack on Kibbutz Be’eri
Mila Cohen, a 9-month-old baby, was killed during the Hamas attack on Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7, 2023. The attack involved a coordinated assault by Hamas terrorists who breached the security fence and targeted multiple locations in southern Israel.
Events Leading to Her Death
Family’s Safe Room: Mila’s family, including her father Ohad, mother Sandra, and two older brothers, sought refuge in their safe room when the attack began. They were alerted by sirens warning of incoming missiles.
Breach of Safe Room: As the terrorists broke into their home, they shot at the door of the safe room. In the chaos, Mila was struck by gunfire while in her mother’s arms.
Aftermath
Injuries to Family: Mila’s father, Ohad, was also killed during the attack, while Sandra and the two boys survived but sustained serious injuries. The family faced immense trauma from the events of that day.
And the following is from a Times of Israel article:
Father Ohad Cohen, 43, was killed by Hamas terrorists along with his 9-month-old daughter Mila, who was shot while in the arms of her mother, Sandra.
Sandra was seriously wounded but managed to flee and survive, along with the couple’s two sons, Liam and Dylan.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/yona-ohad-mila-cohen-73-43-10-months-three-generations-slain/
I can’t recall if I’ve posted this on here before, but back in September Donald Trump said that Hamas chopped babies in half on October 7th:
Trump turns genocide charge back on Hamas: “Little babies were chopped in half”
US President Donald Trump on Friday pushed back on a UN report accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza, insisting the only clear attempt to annihilate a people in this war began on Oct. 7, 2023—when Hamas invaded Israel’s south, murdering families and abducting civilians.
“I haven’t seen [the report],” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, “but did anybody commit genocide on Oct. 7? … Little babies were chopped in half, arms were cut off people, heads were cut off people—that’s genocide.”
https://www.israeltoday.co.il/read/trump-turns-genocide-charge-back-on-hamas-little-babies-were-chopped-in-half/
No doubt Trump’s Nazi mates and supporters found that highly amusing, as was part of his intention in saying it. But the vast majority of his supporters AREN’T Nazis, or fascists, and they don’t have the faintest idea about what he really is, but despite his new version of the ‘babies’, if they were to learn that only one baby was killed on October 7th and that he is lying through his goddam teeth to them and deceiving and duping them and taking them for fools (who believe anything he says), many of them might be woken up to the piece of fascist shit that he is.
AND to the MSM who, for the most part, played along with the original version (and other such atrocity propaganda).
Actually, Trump’s mates are Israelis, zionists and jews. No self respecting Nazi would have anything to do with that lot. Trump is rumoured, and claimed, to be the first jewish president of the USA. Who are we to argue ?
So do you disagree with my main point Steve? And ditto of course for France and Germany and other European countries, along with Canada and Australia and NZ etc, etc (and Britain, as I said in a post last night).
I forgot to mention it, but if tens – hundreds – of millions of people were to learn that only one baby was killed on October 7th, and that they were lied to and duped, then they will be open to the fact that most of the other such atrocity claims about Hamas were falsehoods as well.
And just for the record – although I expect most people who follow Craig will be aware of it – the youngest person who was killed in the kibbutz where the 40 babies were said to have been beheaded – ie Kfar Aza – was fourteen years old.
https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20231215-israel-social-security-data-reveals-true-picture-of-oct-7-deaths
Apologies, not sure what the main point was.
But are they, the West, all as bad as one another, yep.
Was the dead baby story false, probably, we’ll never know as all the sources are corrupt.
Will Trump’s supporters wake up ? No chance. After decades of the mushroom treatment and censorship by the MSM, they don’t know which way is up.
Although Trump and Bibi are bad, they are not the ones calling the shots, they can and will be replaced when appropriate.
You claim you don’t know what my main point was Steve, and yet you responded to it. The 40 beheaded babies story is the biggest card by far that those of us on the genuine left have to expose our so-called political leaders and the MSM for their deceitfullness and dishonesty and fraudulence to the tens of millions of people they duped and deceived (in Britain), and the hundreds of millions they duped and deceived in Europe and N. America and Australia etc. If we don’t play that card – and sooner rather than later – it will be too late, as evidenced by what Trump and his fascist chums are in the process of doing in the US. And we’re not so far behind here in Britain.
You appear to be doing all you can to put people off of playing that card…. and why would you do that?
If only it could be proved that zionists lie..?
‘We’ can call out the 40 beheaded babies story, sure we can. However, when you have a bunch of absolute liars whe swear they’ve seen the pictures and when you have the liars in government who will say such pictures cannot be published because of security or are too graphic for the public, then we’ll get called out as conspiracy nuts and/or antisemites. Unfortunately, the reality is the corrupt have the stronger hand. We should call it out but don’t expect truth to win.
Quite a lot of self-proclaimed Nazis have had quite a lot to do with Mr Zelensky. Who of course is Jewish.
Zionists are nazis.
So the only witnesses to Mila Cohen’s death were the surviving members of her family, who were the other side of a locked door and couldn’t see who was doing the shooting, or what was going on outside, is that right?
In the info I posted about the circumstances of Mila Cohen’s death, it doesn’t say that her father was also shot and killed when shots were fired through the door of their safe room, which had that been the case, it would surely have said so. And it seems HIGHLY unlikely that the IDF would enter their house and just start firing shots through the door of their safe room. How Sandra Cohen and her two sons managed to ‘flee’ we just don’t know, but maybe we’ll learn the full story at some point. But what it doesn’t say is that the IDF rescued them….
“it doesn’t say that her father was also shot and killed when shots were fired through the door of their safe room, which had that been the case, it would surely have said so. ”
Why would it? The whole family was in the safe room, the only shots were the ones that came in through the door, so it is reasonable to suppose that those killed were killed by them. Only a Sophist would argue that, in the absence of confirmation there must be denial.
If you have ever watched live camera footage of such an attack as that of October 7th, rather than some Hollywood rendition, you would know that there is a large amount of chaos. There is no way of telling that any of the fighters even knew that the door was a door of a safe room or that there was anyone behind it. Someone, whether from Hamas or the IDF could have fired a burst of automatic gun fire at some other target that missed and hit the door instead. However, considerations of political capital dictate that the gunfire must have been deliberate and that it must have been fired by Hamas, so that is how the narrative is framed. It’s bad enough that the forty dead babies were actually only one: no-one wants to hear that she was killed by the IDF as well.
This is the IDF that fired tank shells into a house where hostages were held ?
The same IDF that fires RPGs at ambulances !
Recall the Hannibal directive: ‘kill them all’.
Not such a “safe room”, then.
That reads like HaSSbara bollocks.
The current regime as it’s predessors have little time for annoyances such as people. It’s quite obvious our honorable members bemoan the passing of Wellington, now there was a man who’d put these ingrates to the sword thus saving the crown expenditure. Alas, poor Mr Starmer is constrained to let them die with all that irritating publicity and of course expenditure.
I was just doing a search to try and find an article with pictures of the damaged buildings in the kibbutzim and, as such, came across this Al Jazeera article, published/posted on October 12th, 2023, which is really weird. It’s SO weird in fact that I can’t even explain what’s weird about it. Was the author of the piece one of the journalists invited to Kfar Aza on October 10th, or have they compiled the article from articles written by journalists who WERE invited (and THAT’s why it was published on the 12th). The strange thing is that it doesn’t mention the 40 beheaded babies, which you would have thought would have been added to the end of the article, at the very least, given that it’s two days after the story broke. And I’ve not heard this bit before:
As journalists were ushered out, an alert swept through the Israeli soldiers, and there were reports of Palestinian fighters having returned.
The journalists were urged out faster and as they left, the army closed off the access points of the kibbutz and the sound of shooting filled the air.
https://www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2023/10/12/photos-inside-israeli-kibbutz-attacked-by-hamas-bodies-litter-streets
Does it seem remotely plausible that a number of journalists would be invited there if there were still Hamas fighters around?!
And it also says the following in the article:
The soldiers began counting the Israeli dead, putting them in body bags to transport them out of the kibbutz. The final count of the dead and the missing has not been published yet.
Well you would have thought – given that the journalists were invited there – that they would have been told how many Israeli dead had been found so far, which would presumably have included the 40 beheaded babies, given that the 40 beheaded babies was mentioned to one of the journalists who was invited there, which in itself doesn’t make sense of course – ie that it was only mentioned to one of the journalists who were invited there.
And then there’s this bit:
The Israeli army on Tuesday cautiously entered the kibbutz (communal settlements in Hebrew) close to the Gaza Strip after surrounding the area for three days.
What! So they only entered the kibbutz on the Tuesday, and then invited a bunch of journalists there. Yeah, right, just the sort of thing you would do of course. It obviously all seems to have been engineered for the purpose of telling one particular journalist the falsehood about the 40 beheaded babies. And could it be that the Palestinian fighters was a ruse to get all the journalists out – and OFF – quickly, so that the particular journalist who’d been fed the falsehood could get away before any other journalist just happened to engage her in conversation.
I mean if 40 beheaded babies just happened to be found inbetween inviting the journalists, and the journalists arriving there, then SURELY – in the real world – the senior officer in charge would have told all the journalists together once they had all arrived there.
Sorry about this, but something else just occured to me. Obviously thses 40 babies would have been put in body bags straight away, and had all the journalists been told about it once they’d all arrived, then it’s more-than likely that one or more journalists would have asked if they could all see the body bags, and to have refused would have aroused suspicion. But if it’s just mentioned to ONE journalist who KNOWS it’s all a Big Lie, and conspired in it all, then you avoid the possibility of that happening.
The End
Parachutes?! Shreds of parachute fabric?! Oh Lordy Lordy!
Allen, it doesn’t help your case if you keep quoting the perpetrators of the genocide. Just saying !
Perhaps you missed it Steve, but I was quoting from the article by the journalist who, I assume, works for Al Jazeera.
Yes, I missed it. Sorry.
Point stands that Israelis are not a trusted source, at all. (And Al Jazeera can be a bit dodgy at times, the acceptable voice of the Arabs)
“Independent journalist Matt Kennard has drawn attention to the anti-journalistic actions of Reform candidate Chris Parry, a former rear admiral, (who) is the candidate Reform has put forward for the mayor of Hampshire.
What did Kennard post that led to Parry demanding an “intrusive search”? Just evidence that Britain is helping Israel violate its ceasefire:
This is especially bad as he isn’t just defending an ongoing genocide; he’s defending Keir Starmer. Reform voters will be horrified when they see this one. Or maybe they won’t — after all, if this is the quality of candidate they have, maybe they have no taste whatsoever.”
https://www.thecanary.co/trending/2025/12/22/reform-mayoral-candidate-threatens-matt-kennard/
Reform is just a temporary home for dissaffected tories, which is why they hate muslims and support the USA/UK/Israel genocide, as evidenced. Not to be trusted.
Also huge supporters of the British establishment’s proxy war in Ukraine. Unsurprising given Farage, Tice and co are alleged to be intelligence assets.
https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/mps-press-government-to-seize-frozen-russian-assets/
“This is especially bad as he isn’t just defending an ongoing genocide; he’s defending Keir Starmer.”
Starmer is untouchable; remember what happened when Boris attacked him over Savile.
Interesting stuff.
“Scores of protesters detained after the Palestine Action ban may have been arrested on false grounds, an internal Counter Terrorism Policing document obtained by Declassified suggests.
The seven-page “tactics guidance”, dated 28 August, offers advice to British police forces about how to approach cases of those suspected of showing support for the proscribed group.
It specifically states that acts such as brandishing a Private Eye cartoon or holding placards stating “Genocide in Palestine, Time to Take Action” should not be grounds for arrest.
Other forms of protests such as displaying Palestine Action signs within private residences or wearing “Plasticine Action” t-shirts would be permitted, according to the guidance.
Signs saying “I support Palestine, Action is needed now”, “Oppose genocide, Support Palestine”, and “If you’re looking at Palestine and think there should be no Action, you’re on the wrong side of genocide” were also deemed acceptable.”
https://www.declassifieduk.org/palestine-action-policing-guidance-suggests-protesters-wrongly-arrested/
I guess we’ll find out when the courts deal with them (unless of course the authorities drop the charges). I always thought PA should never have been proscribed in the first place, that jury trials should be available for every defendant who wishes them, and where there is evidence of judicial bias e.g. of substituting judges by others suspected of having Zionist biases, that is grounds for appeal and should be used if necessary.
If you have time, you might be interested in this Jacques Baud interview from a couple of days ago, at least the last 10 minutes. (It’s 55 minutes long):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNWKPJSYumA
Agreed that all defendants should have right to jury trial. But worth remembering that Britgov temporarily suspended all new jury trials in 2020. Also the heroic period wherein juries occasionally stood up to judges and the rest of the state which lasted for a few decades from roughly say 1970 (and was never much of a thing in Scotland unfortunately) may well be over. It won’t surprise me if the ruling scum mount a huge show trial of anti-genocide defendants and put the jurors up as representatives of the nation against disobedient terrorist saboteur filth, whose punishment (if any are still alive at that time) is a lesson to all who resist (or think of possibly resisting) being “prevented” from disobeying.
What if I “display” a PA sign in my home and then post a picture online with a note saying only click to see this picture if you are in a private residence?
The state almost always lies when it talks about terrorism. Here we see its lies taken to an extreme. PA is about as anti-terrorist a project as it is possible to get.
How would police react if I made a plasticine Action Morph with a bobby’s helmet on. I wish I was brave enough.
Morph is a British series of clay stop-motion comedy animations, named after the main character, who is a small terracotta-skinned plasticine man, who speaks an unintelligible language and lives on a tabletop, with his bedroom being a small wooden box. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morph_(TV_series) Ridicule is potent.
To be honest Morph sounds like me, I’m sure J K redux would agree.
I forgot to say thank you Mr Murray for allowing anonymous comments on your site, such trust is scarce.
There is an article at ‘The Secret Barrister ‘ :
” Abolishing trial by jury: why is the government overlooking the obvious? ”
It seems a lot of delays will go away by solving some simple logistical problems, holding contractors to account, repairing buildings, etc.
Key quote from the excellent article at ‘The Secret Barrister ‘:
« Indeed, when it commissioned Sir Brian Leveson to chair his review into the criminal courts, and come up with proposals to tackle the problem of delay, its terms of reference required first that he consider “longer-term options for criminal court reform”, including radical “structural changes”, with a specific brief to consider the removal of jury trial. Efficiency was, quite literally, the second consideration. It is “Part 2”. That limb of the Leveson review is still being written. »
Guilt by quota, how Stalinist. You don’t beget justice with injustice.
The ruling scum in Britain could have their f*cking mouths shut for them when they talk about delay in the criminal justice system. These are the types
* whose cops steal rape victims’ smartphones and keep them for years,
* who won’t let foreign spouses of some British citizens enter Britain for months on end unless bribes are handed over for “priority”,
* who run their stinking state “health” system on the basis of a) pathologically lying moneygrabbing prejudiced know-nothing Nazi truth-dentist “gatekeepers” called “general practitioners” whom the population are conditioned to call “doctors” as if they had doctorates when they don’t, and b) open-ended “waiting”, and
* who run their university undergraduate admissions mostly on the basis of applications submitted several months before students take their final pre-university exams so that universities can read school reports and decide whether they want to “offer” you a conditional place or not,
The astute will notice a pattern here regarding social caste. The age-old observation that they run Britain as if it were part of the British Empire remains true. It has been true since about 1870.
Whose fault is it the rulers are causing delays? It’s their own fault and no-one else’s.

A few days ago, our friend JK Redux asked a question:
“How would you protect a ceasefire if not by having fighters in the air and standing by?”
His question referred to Ukraine and could, by extension, be held to cover not only a ceasefire but also a peace treaty featuring a neutral Ukraine without a large standing armed forces.
I replied that I would try to help him answer that question, but first I would like him to tell us how Finland and Austria protected their neutrality after WW2 – were there “fighters in the air and standing by”?
Curiously, JK, although still present on this blog, has not yet come up with any answer.
Could it be because he is unable to?
Has his silver tongue turned to lead?
Perhaps because this is an article on the UK courts and not Ukraine.
To be quite honest JK redux is probably saying what the major political parties are saying including Richard Tice. They seem to be advocating taking on Russia, good luck with that. Starmer, Merz and Macron aka the Three little piggy’s (Putin). That is an apt description no no arms, no money to buy them and no sense. They cannot even run back to Daddy pig (Trump) he doesn’t want to know.
I’d imagine Starmer would prefer if these protestors expired sooner than later.

The Crown has said today there is not enough evidence or no case to prosecute BobVylan for his Glastonbury “efforts” re IDF,does this not undermine the prosecution case for the people’s in this Palestine protest situation?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y2vy9lv6go
“Officers said they also spoke to “approximately 200″ members of the public to see if they had been the victim of a criminal offence.”
Zionists, as usual, are lying when they pretend they’re upset that the British host state isn’t prosecuting Vylan. If they’d told Britain to prosecute, Britain would have prosecuted. Zionists would have put their own people up from within those 200. “Oh, when I heard the singer say these words, I felt like I was at Auschwitz and everyone started threatening me and they haven’t stopped since,” etc.
Greta Thunberg was arrested today for holding a placard supporting the hunger strike prisoners. The placard read….
I SUPPORT

I OPPOSE GENOCIDE
She is a very brave individual, Max Blumenthal interviewed on Judging Freedom by Judge Andrew Nepolitano comments on this and other arrests in UK here at approx 19.55. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbOciOSf8nY
The sign can be read as: ‘I support Palestine Action prisoners, I oppose genocide’, which would mean she will not be prosecuted, I suggest.
I note that Farage has suggested she be deported, for opposing Israeli genocide. What a lovely man !
Should not Mr Nigel Farage be deported, or at least deprived of his citizenship, for bringing English pubs and English beer into disrepute?
Funny Farage gets mentioned, because we were just talking about people who’ve been on Russian government media a lot.
It’s unlikely Farage will lead Reform into the next general election.
She’s brave all right. Let’s see what happens to her and the thousands of others, some in very respectable positions during their working lives, who have done similarly.
Came across this earlier in an email from GM Freeze (dated December 13th, which I must have missed), then went on their website to find it so that I could copy and paste a link to it on here, and the article is dated December4th:
Israeli military raids Palestinian seed bank
The premises of the Palestinian seed bank have been raided by the Israeli military, with eight male agricultural workers who were on the premises abducted and vital equipment for the preservation of Palestinian food security and Food Sovereignty destroyed.
La Via Campesina, the international movement of small-scale farmers, has strongly condemned the attack, which occurred on the 1st December. It has reported that members of its Palestinian member organisation were subjected to harsh and humiliating treatment whilst premises in Ramallah and Hebron were violently searched. All office contents, including computers, hard drives, administrative files, financial documents and logistical equipment, were stolen or destroyed…..
https://www.gmfreeze.org/2025/12/04/israeli-military-raids-palestinian-seed-bank/
Yep, they just totally lurve being totally nazty cnuts.
Also came across the following on the Guardian’s website, posted yesterday:
Reginald D Hunter court summons quashed for attempt to have him ‘cancelled’
Judge says Campaign Against Antisemitism misled him when bringing ‘abusive’ private prosecution of comedian
https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/dec/23/court-summons-against-reginald-d-hunter-quashed-for-seeking-to-have-him-cancelled
Yep, MORE nazty scum.
Should not “Campaign against anti-semitism” be charged with vexatious prosecution and wasting the court’s time?
Perhaps it’s time for a bit of lawfare against the Zionists and their organizations?
Since the Willers v Joyce case, the common law tort of malicious prosecution should be available to Reg D, if he wishes to pursue the CAA for damages. He would need to show that the proceedings against him were brought without reasonable cause (tick) and with malicious intent.
Establishing malice requires that the claimant “prove that the defendant deliberately misused the process of the court“, which requires showing that the proceedings “were not a bona fide use of the court’s process” [Lord Toulson, Willers v Joyce et al. (2016) W.L.R. 477]. On the face of it: (tick).
An impressive master-stroke imv in equitable judgment from Michael Snow, the presiding magistrate in the CAA v Reginald Hunter, lies in the concluding paragraphs, viz:
“22. … my view of the conduct of the CAA is consistent with them as
an organisation which is not ‘playing it straight’ but is seeking to use the
criminal justice system, in this case for improper reasons.
23.I direct that a copy of this judgement must be disclosed by the CAA and
attached by it, in all future applications.”
Meaning that the CAA’s antics here in attempting to manipulate documentary disclosure will have to be exposed for every future prosecution that they attempt to launch. Bravo !!
A term zionists somehow came to hate is the harmless arabic word “intifada” that simply translate to “uprising”, it has nothing to do with violence but directly after the massacre in Australia zionists began a concerted effort to get the term banned, and unfortunately today one of the regions in Australia (New South Wales) banned the term.
Look at Caitlin Johnstone compiled list of zionists suspiciously framed the term “intifada” as a harmful term that must be banned past couple of days. This is how the israeli lobby works: https://x.com/caitoz/status/2001055324376363274
Also in other news, Belgium joined South Africa at the ICJ Genocide case. Strange time to join, a bit late? Like why did Belgium not join in 2023? 2024? Or earlier in 2025 when there was a clear momentum against israel, which seems to be diminished by every day that goes by now. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12/23/belgium-joins-south-africas-genocide-case-against-israel-at-icj
Zionists also don’t like the word genocide, in ziospeak this means self defence, apparently.
Zionists also have issues with the word holocaust, in ziospeak it means six million ( 🙂 ) reasons to support genocide.
The point of the word-banning stuff (in a culture where a young boy who is horrible to a young girl is called “misogynist” and a “radicalisation” risk by the authorities) is that the authorities are taking the war to the resistance. Including regarding what words are good and what ones are bad.
As for “intifada”, it does refer to violence in Arabic, nanely resistance violence against fascist oppression, which is precisely what is needed. This has been obvious simce the mass almost-house arrests of 2020 and the prior massification of addiction to microwave tracker devices .
Hello Mudda, hello Fadda
Never say the…
word ” Intifada ”
It’s very hurtful….
to those
Lovely genocidal zion-jewoos
Just read an excellent article on Scheerpost dated 23/12/2025 by Professor Jeffrey Sachs- European Russophobia and Europe’s Rejection of Peace: A Two-Century Failure
This is a really helpful summary articulating the geo-strategic history post 1815 [Napoleon] to the current war in Ukraine vis a vis Russia and its relations with the “west”.
I had not realised that the Soviets had applied to join NATO ! This is highly recommended and the article references the academic work and research undertaken to support the thesis.
The ticking time bomb which is Israel, has been stealing land mainly since 1967 (they maintain it is their land, so it cannot be stolen)
The 1949 Geneva conventions article 49 paragraph 6 is clear..
The Prohibition on Settler Transfers
“The final paragraph of Article 49 introduces a separate prohibition preventing the Occupying Power from transferring parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies. This clause focuses on the actions of the Occupying Power, not the local population. The rule aims to prevent the fundamental alteration of the occupied territory’s demographic composition. This prohibition prevents measures that could lead to the annexation, colonization, or permanent integration of the territory into the Occupying Power’s structure. The establishment of settlements, where the Occupying Power moves its own citizens into the territory, is the primary act forbidden by this clause”.
This means that for nearly 60 years at least the Israeli state has been in breach of this fundamental article of International law, Worse still the Western world, led be the US and its veto has blocked any implementation of this resolution. The EU including the UK have encouraged this flagrant war crime to the extent that now nearly one million Israeli settlers inhabit the West Bank [(and the Golan Heights Syria) and threaten the very basis of International law by allowing Israel access, as an associate member of the EU, and turning a blind eye to Israeli excesses culminating in Genocide.
The “West” has, inexorably brought this continuing tragedy to a head, now Israel is asking the US to compound its mistakes by attacking Iran on behalf of Israel. Any serious attack on Iran could initiate a world war, closely tied as they are to Russia and China, or at least the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and the destruction of all those glittering Palaces along the other side of the Strait, naturally the economic fortunes of the west, tied as they are to the oil flowing from the region, would result in economic disaster. Is all this worth backing a supremacist, Apartheid loving and Genocidal state, to ask the question, is to answer it.
Yes, it’s curious, isn’t it.
The European Union is bound up with the Zionist entity in an Association Agreement that was signed and ratified well after 1967, in the knowledge that the Zionist entity was in breach of international law, and it still refuses to suspend or denounce the Treaty today, despite it being clearly than ever that the Zionist entity is doubled down and is still doubling down on that breach of international law.
This is important, because although one can argue about whether something is a genocide, there is no arguing against this breach since international law is crystal clear and the Zionist entity’s actions being incontrovertible.
Every square millimeter of Israeli land is stolen.

It uses interesting terminology. Ahmed is called a “collaborator” with the Biden administration.
Criticism of Israel will not be tolerated, so says Marco Rubio, US Sec of State and Nat Sec advisor. This means if you are against Genocide and complain about it, you will not get a visa to visit the US.
Marco Rubio has made an official statement announcing that individuals who criticize Israel will face visa denials to enter the United States.
According to the US Secretary of State, this measure aims to protect the strong alliance between the US and Israel and prevent the spread of negative attitudes towards this state within American territory.
Rubio emphasizes that criticism of Israel, especially those perceived as insults or attacks on its sovereignty and security, will be considered sufficient grounds to deny entry to applicants. https://telegrafi.com/en/Anyone-who-criticizes-Israel-will-automatically-have-their-US-visa-revoked./
This together with many politicians in the US believing Israel must be worshiped, augers badly for the future..
Congressman Rick Allen questioning Columbia University President Minouche Shafik, asked if she was concerned that God might “curse” the university, ‘Do you want Columbia University to be cursed by God?’ Since the covenant said If you bless Israel I will bless you, and if you curse Israel I will curse you. Do you want Columbia University to be cursed by God. Shafik..definitely not.
I and my immediate family may be accepted as future citizens upon giving Uncle Sam $1 million dollars each which is $5 million. No problem /S What I would find harder is to approve of Genocide.
There is much worse to come, pro Israel Zionist billionaires are buying up the US MSM, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, an ally of US President Donald Trump and one of the richest men in the world, pledged on Monday to provide $40.4 billion to help finance his son’s hostile bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, the owner of CNN, HBO Max, and other major media outlets, they are buying Tic Toc etc and two Billionaires have set up a super pac to challenge Thomas Massie one of the few Anti Zionists in US politics.
“Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, Trump’s pick for US Anti-Semitism Czar, says the State Department is going to “have a whole division” dedicated to battling “anti-Semitism on the internet” and pushing social media to do “better on algorithms.”

Zionist Starmer will try for the same in the UK. And, the tories, reform, libdems and probably greens and corbyn would not oppose the state sanctioned genocide worship.
How openly the Zionists speak of exterminating all Palestinians on their tv networks.
” Israeli media (Channel 13) openly hosts and amplifies supporters of genocide: ‘I want to kick them out. We have to exterminate every last one of them [Palestinians]. I’ll tell you what I envision: There’s not a single person, not a single tree, not a single house, and if I could, I’d even poison the fish in the sea. Everyone there is an enemy. The child who was born yesterday in Rafah, is an enemy.’”

Time to send free Palestine t shirts to every football fan travelling to the world cup, see how the smeary Ellisons of this world like it.
The thought has occurred to many brighter minds than mine that all these arrests and charges against simple demonstrators are merely vexatious and designed to inconvenience and frighten. In other words, the police know full well that the charges are most likely to get thrown out once the cases come to court. Whether they ever do come to court or are dropped beforehand, people will have been inconvenienced and their names publicised, have to live in uncertainty for almost certainly months, and probably have to spend some of their own money to defend themselves. The overall word for this is, it is said, intimidation.
And, would have had their complete Internet presence downloaded by police/GCHQ.

“And England-as-the-UK is running scared. They’re now putting their weight behind a move at the UN Security Council to rip up the UN Charter and replace external self determination (the right to choose independence), with *imposed*, rather than voluntary, internal self-determination (devolution). If they succeed that’s the end of independence for us, Hawai’i, Alaska, Catalonia, New Caledonia and all the other still colonised nations of the world. The Human Rights Council is the forum where it has to be defeated. The LSC is already addressing this but it’s another campaign in its own right. More work & more expense.

This is a warning to all commentators of this blog, the European Commission have begun sanctioning Individuals for using pro Russian talking points which can “destabilize” the European Union, this is incredible very recently Swiss (not in the EU) Colonel Jacques Baud a former intelligence officer who has served in many important positions around the world was accused of spreading Russian propaganda, his bank accounts have been frozen and he cannot travel anywhere. No court of law has condemned him, in fact there is no law which says you cannot take an objective view on the merits (or otherwise) of the Ukraine/Russia dispute. It seems the Commission can decide that we are right and any other opinion is wrong, i.e. the EU are the light and Russia is the darkness, therefore you must be punished. This is incredible. see this discussion between the excellent Professor Glenn Diesen and Pascal Lottaz (Neutrality Studies) here..

Terribly sad.
Never mind.
I expect that M./Herr Baud will be very well provided for.
his bank accounts have been frozen and he cannot travel anywhere.
Only applies to assets held and travel within the EU.
And the EU accounts for most of the European landmass. Is it likely that Colonel Baud has debit or credit cards from a non-EU bank?

He lives in Switzerland which is not a member of the EU and has several banks of its own.
Pears Morgaine, Nathalie Yamb is a Swiss Cameroonian Bi National but she is living in Switzerland, she was born in Switzerland and she has a Swiss passport etc She was sanctioned before Jacques Baud, she has had all her Swiss bank accounts frozen and she cannot fly over any country in Europe.

@ JK Redux
Thank you for providing the names of several Russian banks.
Are you claiming that Colonel Baud has accounts with any of them?
@ Pears
“He lives in Switzerland which is not a member of the EU…”
Actually, Pears, Colonel Baud, although a Swiss national, lives in Brussels.
Please do not peddle false information.
Apologies. I acknowledge that when it comes to peddling false information I’m a rank amateur compared to some other posters.
Oh, I think you do yourself an injustice, there.
A person in Switzerland who is banned from flying over or travelling in EU countries must stay in Switzerland or go to Liechtenstein. If they go to Liechtenstein they must then either stay there or go back to Switzerland.
I want to see any politician who accepts a bribe be sent to jail, I’m not a zionist and I opposed the invasion of Iraq.
@ JK
An interesting opinion. Who do you expect to be providing for Colonel Baud?
Apparently the sanctions are far reaching, according to one of the first journalists to be sanctioned, “Death By Sanctions: EU Destroys German Journalist in Germany | Hüseyin Doğru”. Even friends providing a meal can in turn be sanctioned for providing a service. He said the only recourse is the European court, he was quoted hundreds of thousands of Euros to start it. This authoritarianism will be the death of the EU.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LeNcOJz6J4
I agree, Harry Law.
That is why it would be interesting to hear from JK Redux who is going to “provide for” Colonel Baud.
Baud intends to appeal againat the sanctions.
If Baud is being accused of being an agent of influence for Russia, he should receive due process.

Truly disgusting what is going on in Palestine, every day jewish racists, shielded by the IDF, roaming around, harassing, attacking, beating, humiliate palestinians, even killing their livestock:
“Five Israelis Arrested After Attack on West Bank Palestinian Village Leaves Mother and Three Children Wounded, Two Sheep Slaughtered”
https://archive.is/z3NmK#selection-690.0-690.1
This is of course nothing different than the white racists lynching people of colors in the 50s-60s.
And no one cares. Imagine if a jewish minority was treated like this in an arab country: arab racist gangs beating up jews – all hell would break loose! But israelis are free to harass and kill palestinians off decade after decade with impunity and almost zero coverage by the outside world. How could this go on?
Just totally totally evil demented inhuman beings. Oh, right, and they’re supposed to be civilised!
The only democracy in the ME, with the most moral defence force. Now, someone please remind me what the definitions of democracy and morals are. I don’t want to live in a world where these bastards are defined as the good guys. Give me China or North Korea any day.
Yeah “the only democracy”, what a reprehensible claim that is, just now I read:
“IDF Reservist Caught on Video Driving Tractor Over Palestinian Praying on West Bank Road”
https://archive.is/9sLbZ
In a sane world the outside world would have military intervened decades ago, “taking care” of this demented people. I sense for example that Germans in the 30s were brainwashed by design to be hateful but the israelis are like evil to the very core. It is incomprehensible how twisted many of the israelis really are.
Not only do they kill, they enjoy the kill, they enjoy inflicting pain on totally defenseless people. It is a nation of psychosadists.
This is corruption, on a huge scale..
Rachel Reeves has said publicly that she will always be a friend of Israel – a genocidal terrorist state, whilst taking over £200k in donations from Israeli lobbyists.
Reeves made the comments during the keynote speech at the Labour Friends of Israel’s (LFI) annual dinner on Monday, 8 December. Also in attendance were deputy prime minister David Lammy and various backbench MPs.
https://www.thecanary.co/trending/2025/12/09/rachel-reeves-zionist/
She said…
“The progressive friends of Israel, whatever their criticism of particular governments, must be willing to say, unapologetically, I am a Zionist”.
To translate quickly, ‘progressive friends of Israel’ means genocide supporters who are okay with Israel murdering countless innocent people, of course.
This is an excellent article and proves the depths of depravity these so called human beings like Reeves, Starmer and Lammy are willing to sink.
Roll on the local elections in May. By the way, Owen Jones has a good video up on Youtube on her appearance at this ‘Friends of Israel’ dinner.

“I expect that M./Herr Baud will be very well provided for.”
Who exactly do you expect will be “providing for” Colonel Baud?
Well the Russian state that’s been telling him what to say for a start.
Whilst I strongly disagree with Baud I’m not at all happy about the EU sanctioning anybody and everybody with a contrary viewpoint. Article 11 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights is supposed to guarantee free speech.
On the subject of being accused of being an agent of influence there’s a good 2002 film starring Christopher Plummer, Agent of Influence.
That’s curious reasoning: you disagree with M Baud’s views, therefore he must be a Russian shill. By the same token, whose shill are you, if disagree with your views? After all, no-one ever says anything disagreeable unless they are acting under instruction, do they?
Baud has appeared on RT, contributes to pro-Russian think tanks and French far-right TV station TV Libertés.
Baud explicitely said that he never accepted any invitation from Russian or RU-affiliated publications or TV stations etc.
For the very reason that his critics might argue the way you do.
If those outlets printed his texts they did so without the active engagement by Baud.
I really do not know what´s your problem with Baud.
We should seriously be thankful for his work.
Perhaps you should read his work and start to scrutinize your own preferred narrative which after all originates with the PR that surrounds us night and day.
Is it possible that British Defense Ministry, the French, the German, the Ukrainians and so on are lying to us? Is it possible that NATO is actually lying to us?
They lie to us 24/7 on Gaza. Why should we all of a sudden believe them on Ukraine???
NATO has been working with PR since 1949.
The purge of Communists in France, Italy and Germany after WWII (I don´t know the English story) was among others to bolster public support for NATO. To ensure that Western Europe would not try to actually deal with the USSR. Just as Lord Ismay put it.
Just read NSC-68 from 1950. Nothing has changed in Western mindset since those dark days. The world as a fairy-tale told from POV of the US national security state. Which means: world domination.
And then take the outline of the Pentagon from 1992 and you will eventually find the same ideology. That 1992 document was Neocon outline and corresponded with what Paul Nitze laid out in 1949 for Truman.
Nothing changed in between. And this has remained up this very day, until the latest NSS. But that´s a different topic.
And then think of all what the US has done with a lot of support by the British intelligence sevice in the decades since 1949 and you know what kind of system and geopolitical goals you are dealing.
You really think people like some of Germany´s highest former military cadres (Harald Kujat or Erich Vad), US scholars like Nicolai Petro, and EU MPs like Michael von der Schulenburg, formerly one of the highest UN representatives would really defend a liar and Russian propagandist? You really think that???
A quick online search found jacques Baud to be present in numerous Russian state media television and radio programmes where he is presented as a Russia specialist and an expert on the conflict in Ukraine. Aside from promoting numerous conspiracy theories (the Skripals only suffered food poisoning) he’s been consistently wrong and misleading.
https://dailysceptic.org/2022/05/22/how-accurate-is-jacques-bauds-analysis-of-the-war-in-ukraine/
If someone is never seen in our mainstream media because they say things that don’t fit its approved narrative but they have been seen in some foreign media, then they must be a shill for that foreign government and whatever they say
can be disregarded without even looking at it. Handy! They were so clumsy and unimaginative in ‘1984’.
AG
And, to add to your list, do not forget the purge of Communist ministers from the Belgian government post WW2.
Pears
Language is a beautiful – and terrible – thing. And clever wordsmiths can bring truth – and propagate lies.
Take, for example, the claims that Colonel Baud “went on” or “has appeared on” Russian state TV. Now, this would normally be taken to mean he was physically interviewed by someone on Russian state TV, or appeared physically or by satellite link, on a Russian state TV programme. Colonel Baud denies this.
However, those words could also mean that Russian state TV featured a clip of Colonel Baud appearing on a podcast such as Judging Freedom, or Pascal Lottaz’s podcasts, or Daniel Davis’s podcasts, etc. He may even have his own podcasts (I don’t think so, but I’m not sure). Colonel Baud does of course not deny appearing on others’ podcasts, the evidence is easy to find.
So we have two different stories. May I make a suggestion? It is that Pears Morgaine, or others of his opinion, shoulld present evidence for their claim – for instance, by linking to a clip of Colonel Baud appearing physically or via satellite link on Russian state TV. Shouldn’t be difficult, surely?
Now to the claim that Colonel Baud “contributes to” pro-Russian think thanks. The same point of language could be made here as was made regarding appearances on Russian TV. Did he contribute to think tanks in the sense that most people would give to that verb? Or did think tanks use some of his writings to support whatever argument they were making?
Here again, since it is difficult to prove a negative, it could be argued that the onus would be on contributors like Pears Morgaine to provide proof positive. Hence I invite him to do so.

Of v.d. Schulenburg from his Wiki page: “In 2025, he travelled to Moscow to celebrate Victory Day (9 May).”
Tells me that he is either an idiot or subject to Russian “influence”.
Most people believe it was a victory that warrants celebration. Others do not and wil never forgive it.
@ JK
“Of v.d. Schulenburg from his Wiki page: “In 2025, he travelled to Moscow to celebrate Victory Day (9 May).”
I’m not quite sure why you should proceed to conclude that he is either an idiot or subject to Russian influence.
Allied – including Russian (Soviet) – victory over Nazi Germany is a historical fact which even the biggest idiot or neo_Nazi would not dispute. Now, it is true that the French, British and Americans do not celebrate VE day with military parades, but that is their choice.
Pending possible further development of your “thought” from you, I would suggest the following : the attendance was idiotic only in the sense that the attendee was idiotic enough to defy the accepted Western line and narrative. As for being under Russian influence, I suppose all our actions – including all of yours, dear JK – are “influenced” by something or someone whether consciously or unconsciously. Alas, that is the fate of all who possess a mind
” he’s been consistently wrong and misleading.”
Anyone who believes in the official narrative will always find those who don’t believe in it “consistently wrong and misleading”, so that statement does not really convey any useful information.
