How did we come to legitimise and normalise the possibility of a large-scale war with Russia when deep down we all know that it would be a catastrophe of unimaginable proportions, even if it remained limited to purely conventional measures?

These are extraordinary developments indeed. All the more reason to give this book - and the carefully orchestrated campaign against it - our most careful attention.

Please consider signing this open letter:
in May 2024 the World Health Organization (WHO) vote on acceptance of two documents on future health crises that have been developed with unusual haste. This could institutionalise global inequality for decades.

Billions will starve to death under blackened skies if nukes start flying. And all because of arrogant notions of supremacy and petty nonsense.

Great post Thomas Fazi 👌These must be the dumbest reasons ever that a civilization will have collapsed.

Should Africans be forced into poverty and illness for the benefit of Western corporations, or was colonialism supposed to have been ceased decades ago (because of it was simply wrong)?

If some people:
- modified a virus to make people sick,
- made lots of money from it,
- then paid for a new public health agreement to allow them to do it again,

would you support them?

The children of Democratic Republic of the Congo are going through what no one would ever wish for his or her children.

They are been forced to provide cheap labor in mines (child labor) so as big tech companies can make huge profits.

Now four years on, presumably the first thing will announce is a review of how the government handled 'Ireland's greatest challenge since World War II.'
He was Minister for Health so presumably he has nothing to conceal. Oh wait..

A brutal war is raging in Democratic Republic of the Congo with people being massacred on a daily basis.

Why isn't this in the news?

Whatever you think of the energy transition and climate change, this is a must-watch.

This is the current consequence for those working in DRC to produce Net Zero for the market.

Of course the oil industry can do the same, but this is still unacceptable and change must come.

I am very much looking forward to this, and grateful to AfricanStudiesCentre for hosting the first debate I am aware of in Western academia on this vital subject.

A hybrid event, too. Looking forward to a proper discussion.

Weird world no #743.

The indefatigable Sunetra Gupta writes this brilliant piece about the impacts of Covid lockdowns on Global South - and the threats to it from the new pandemic treaty.

Lefty liberals don't care about this.

So it's in The Telegraph...

Depuis 2020, interroger l'influence du réseau de B. Gates sur l'OMS et son rôle dans la gestion du Covid, est du 'complotisme' selon les 'journalistes'. Avant 2020, c'était juste du travail d'enquête. Illustration avec ce docu d'ARTE Quelle régression ! youtube.com/watch?v=N-mL9g…
