Bristol Indymedia: representing the "world we are striving to create"?

freethepeeps | 18.08.2013 12:19 | Indymedia

Bristol IMC and this site were someof the many Indymedia sites which sprang up internationally, after the first Indymedia was was created in Seattle in the run-up to the World Trade Organization meeting held there in 1999.


Born at a time when the internet was still in its infancy, and when the anti-globalisation movement seemed to be attracting growing numbers of activists and creative responses to the crisis in Capitalism, Seattle IMC was followed by new sites in many cities and locations internationally, and there was an attempt to agree a set of Principles of Unity, which although never formally ratified, new groups were required to sign up to in order to be admitted formally to the Indymedia network

Since then, much has changed, and the original Seattle site seems to have disappeared off the net, whilst the Global network is seemingly in a spiral of terminal decline.

Regardless, some sites, including this one continue to limp along, albeit with smaller collectives, less news and less prominence in activist circles. The reasons are myriad, not least that other sites have become the focus for reporting and organising of actions, including perhaps most prominently , and regrettably Facebook. Indymedia uk continues to limp along because no other site has sprung up with the ability to represent different strands of activism in the uk, and because its collective members consider it an important archive of the anti-capitalist movement during the last decade. Bristol is probably more effective these days as a community noticeboard, although it doesn't seem to have many readers, or much content lately.

Unlike Facebook, whose usage has resulted in jail sentences for some of its users, Indymedia uses Open Publishing, and chooses not to log IP addresses, in order to protect its users from the long arm of the law. Thus users do not have to register, and can post anonymously, meaning that Indymedia admions do not know who they are, and no record of IPs is logged or kept. That does not necessarily meran that they cannot be tracked by other methods, and users are advised to utilise caution when posting sensitive information.

Perhaps the problem with Open Publishing is that is open to abuse, and that anyone can post as anyone. All well and good when posting up information which is intended to expose the corruption of the ruling classes, but not so good when used a tool for trolls to attack the movement and activists. One example of abuse of the system is a series of posts from Government Secure Intranet Gateways to Indymedia uk over a number of years, which are believed by a number of Indymedia mods to come from the police. Another example of abuse is extensive trolling, especially by an individual believed to be based in Belgium, who has posted prolifically to the UK site for almost a decade. More recently he has also been posting to Bristol IMC, and as a direct result of his posts, both sites were forced to tighten up their moderation of comments and posts.

Recently, despite Bristol's vow to tighten up on comments moderation, a long thread has appeared on their site purporting to contain a number of posts from myself. Despite my reporting the posts, and making it clear I had not posted them, the mods have allowed them to stand. Sure its silly season, and they are busy etc, but other modding has taken place, and the personal attacks have been allowed to stand.

I am now taking this opportunity to address the issues raised. Knowing that the comments on Bristol are likely to eventually be hidden, I am adding them as a comment to the copy of the article posted to IMC uk, as Bristol IMCs hidden function appears to be broken, and comments become untraceable after a time. At least on the uk site they will appear with a context.

The article itself notes that "Holocaust Denier, David Irving" is due to give a talk in Bristol in a few days time. The comments, designed to appear as if they come from me, urge people to attend the lecture and hear for themselves what the man has to say. Personally, I care little what he has to say, and would not advise anyone to waste time and effort on attending the meeting, or even for that matter opposing it, as you have to register and pay money in order to find where the venue is.

I know little about David Irving, and have little interest in him, or his subject matter. For the sake of accuracy, I therefore think Bristol mods should enforce their own recently adopted policy and get rid of the comments. They appear to be designed to cause confusion and as a direct attack on me, and the uk site.

The fact is that because of the abuse of Open Publishing, it has become clear that rational discussion of issues is virtually impossible on Indymedia sites, and the best response is therefore the hiding of disruptive posts, and posts which are claiming to come from individuals who have not posted them.

One Bristol mod has already noted that "many people have contacted us to state that the current state of the comments has actually been damaging to the reputation of the site", and now is the time to put a stop to the trolling and put the site to more productive use, or even consider closing it, if there is no longer the will or manpower available to do so.

"Freedom of speech" cries FTP who spends his life constantly hiding any posts that disagree with his anti-semitism.

FTP believes anyone who thinks Irving is pillock must be a Zionist.

No, FTP, I'm not a Zionist. I am a realist. I don't like people who believe that only 30,000 people died at Auschwitz and all of natural causes. Neither do I like people who think that the holocaust" was a myth invented by the UK government - in the same way as I don't like people who think that the murder of Lee Rigby was a false flag attack.

Mostly, FTP, what I don't like is horrible little anti-semites from south africa who, given that they aren't allowed to hate black people any more, decide to have a go at the Jews.

What you are and what you do are perfectly relevant - given that you are a renowned anti-semite who hides any posts that might in some way be seen as anti-Palestine or pro Israel.

Other interesting reading, article by David Rovics
author by Trollwatchpublication date Tue Aug 13, 2013 13:56Report this post to the editors

I've been on a concert tour in Europe, so far mostly in Great Britain, for the past month or so. There's nothing like being on tour to connect on a personal, face-to-face level with society, or at least the little subsets of society who come to my shows. Being a songwriter who writes songs about the Palestinian struggle, among other subjects, many of my shows around the world are organized by Palestine solidarity activists of one kind or another. Before the tour began I was getting occasional emails from people asking me whether I wanted to add my name to a group denunciation of jazz musician, blogger and author Gilad Atzmon. Denounce him for what, I asked. For being an anti-Semite, they replied. I'd then ask them to send me what he wrote that they found offensive, which they would then do (sometimes accompanied by an introductory essay explaining the distinction between anti-Zionsim and anti-Semitism). I'd then read every word, and each time, I'd fail to find the anti-Semitic bit. Then, ten days into my tour, the US Palestinian Community Network published a "Disavowal of the Racism and Antisemitism of Gilad Atzmon." Several of the signatories include Palestinian intellectuals and activists I know and admire.

Before and especially after their denunciation of Atzmon was published, several of my gigs in England and Scotland have included people handing out printed copies of the disavowal and telling me and other people in no uncertain terms that Atzmon is an anti-Semite, may be a Mossad agent, and may be (or is, depending on who you ask) a holocaust denier. ("Which holocaust" is not an appropriate question, so don't even think about asking. Just the question alone is enough to get you accused of being a denier in some quarters.)

Well, all the attention Atzmon was getting prompted me to fork up $9.99 for my first electronic book (and I'm very thankful that something got me to read a book again, as somehow or other it's been ages). I'm not a scholar, but I am an avid student of history and politics, and I thought Atzmon's book, The Wandering Who?, was a very thought-provoking read. There weren't any particularly new ideas in it, but it was a very well-organized, well-articulated, contemporary and at times, humorous 200-page analysis of Jewish identity.

From the outset, Atzmon makes it clear that his criticism of various aspects of Jewish tribal identity(s) for the past couple millenia is not aimed at the many people who happen to be born Jewish, but to what he identifies as "third category" Jews – Jews who identify primarily as Jewish, first and foremost. Growing up in the New York area with my eyes open and being of Jewish lineage myself, it is not hard to see that this third category exists, and in abundance, so it's also not hard to see why it's such an interesting subject to write a book about.

A cursory glance at history tells me that narrow tribal identity politics usually suck. Whether it's people defining themselves in terms of their nation, their region, their ethnicity, their football team, their religion, if people have convinced themselves that they're better than you, watch out. What Atzmon is doing here is deconstructing (to use a word he probably doesn't like) Jewish identity politics, specifically. He is not analyzing or denouncing tribalism in general, I assume because you gotta stop somewhere, but maybe he has other reasons, like just wanting to stick to the point, or perhaps a little bit of self-preservation.

Why, then, is Atzmon's intellectual exercise here getting both the Anti-Defamation League and even various good activists so riled up? Well, for different reasons, depending on who's feeling riled. In the case of people involved with Palestine solidarity in one form or another, I'd say it is not Atzmon's non-existent hatred of Jews that is the problem here. It is the fact that, in his position as an accomplished jazz musician and writer, he keeps talking about his views and upsetting people who identify with other narratives of Jewish religion, history and identity than Atzmon's. Some of these people he's pissing off include Jews and others who are involved with the movement to boycott Israeli products, etc. Because he's pissing them off, it doesn't really matter whether he's right, he should just shut up and stop rocking the boat, because he's distracting people from the very worthy cause of Palestinian self-determination.

Now there's where I can sympathize with Atzmon's detractors. There is, I'm sure, great strategic value in as united a front as possible. I'm not an organizer – just a musical cheerleader – so I don't know much first-hand about building a solid movement and that sort of thing, and I'm sure it's extremely difficult. I'm also sure it's extremely necessary. But as someone who has been studying history and politics for many decades, I have to say that Atzmon is only saying the things that so many people already know, and I, for one, am not going to pretend otherwise because shunning someone for stating the self-evident is more convenient for the movement in the short-term. If he is to be shunned for being unnecessarily divisive, or for having too dark a sense of humor, or for being overly confrontational or critical, fine, shun away. But if he is to be shunned because he is an anti-Semite, no, that's just nonsense.

I'm not going to lay out Atzmon's whole thing here. If you're curious, read the book – at least read the first two chapters before you decide to join in the shunning. But as a big fan of world history and the similarities and differences between the development of different societies over the millenia, as I was reading his book I kept thinking of other examples of tribal identity politics through the ages. One of the things I love about the US, despite a perennially despicable government committing one holocaust after another – the African holocaust, the Native American holocaust, the Korea holocaust, the Vietnam holocaust, not to mention the German and Japanese holocausts committed by the USAF – and despite all the efforts of racist pricks in power who do their best to maintain all sorts of divisions within American society – in the end, the US is full of hopelessly assimilated mutts like myself. It is, in fact, to no small extent, a melting pot, and although the bigotry that often is one of the factors that leads to assimilation must certainly be condemned, the fact that the country is full of people who, like me, can trace their ancestry to at least a dozen countries, tribes and historic religious affiliations, is a beautiful thing. It leaves many of us, especially those of us living comfortable lives, who are broadly accepted as part of a given society, perplexed by tribalism. For us assimilated types it doesn't come naturally, and if it is to exist it must be very purposefully ingrained. (Which is why the ADL hates Atzmon – he's interfering with the ingraining process with his book.)

I kept wondering, as I was reading Atzmon's book, what would reactions of the general public be like to a similarly critical deconstruction of Catholic religion and tribal identity? I suspect such a book would be taken very differently depending on the locale -- depending on whether you live in a place where Catholics are disproportionately living in poverty or faced with discrimination, or have been in such a position in living memory, such as Northern Ireland, as opposed to places like the US or the other 26 counties of Ireland. For example, I have never met anyone living in Belfast who would refer to themselves as a "recovering Catholic." Despite the efforts of the historically oppressed Catholic community in the northern six counties to distance themselves from the Catholic tribal identity and embrace a more inclusive, Republican identity (Protestants welcome!), the effect of centuries of anti-Catholic discrimination and oppression has left people with a much stronger attachment to their Catholic identity than most Catholics would tend to have in the Republic of Ireland or in the United States, where you will often meet people who, when asked if they grew up in a religious family or some other such question, will define themselves as a "recovering Catholic."

Most people immediately understand what is meant by "recovering Catholic." The emphasis may vary depending on the person and what their experiences were like, but most likely anyone "recovering" from being a Catholic is trying to recover from growing up in an atmosphere where they were led to believe that sex is bad, everyone else who doesn't believe the way we do is going to hell and should therefore be converted to my religion, abortion is a sin, homosexuality is a sin, etc. Yet if someone were to describe themselves as a "recovering Jew," in many cases the room would become uncomfortably quiet, I imagine, as people gradually walk away from the offending party, lest they be accused of anti-Semitism by standing too close. Except in Brooklyn or Tel Aviv, where being Jewish is quite normal and unexotic, and where most people would understand immediately (whether or not they like it) that this person is recovering from growing up in an environment where everyone who wasn't Jewish was a goy and was not to be trusted and was a closet anti-Semite, where you shouldn't marry a goy, where you're always either too Jewish or not Jewish enough, where you're a failure for not being a doctor or a lawyer, where you're part of a Chosen group of people and you're better than others, but don't say that in public or they'll say you poisoned the wells, etc.

Sticking with the Catholic example here, though, reading the "debate" (if you can call attack and counter-attack a debate) between Atzmon's detractors and supporters (some of whom appear to be lunatics), I was thinking about what a friend in West Belfast was telling me about some things that happened back in the day, during the Troubles. The IRA was, like so many movements, full of inevitable contradictions. So much of the Republican movement had a distinctly socialist orientation, and elements of the Republican movement were very critical of the Catholic church presently and historically, including even critical of the church's stance on abortion and many other still-sensitive issues among many people of Catholic origin there and around the world. But much of the IRA's funding came from Irish-American supporters in the US, who were often otherwise fairly conservative politically and socially as well. So the IRA's socialist message and anyone associated with the Republican movement who was speaking out in support of legalizing abortion was seen as an obstacle to the Republican movement, even if many people quietly agreed with the dissenters.

Many people have made relevant comparisons between the global movement in support of Palestinian self-determination and the global movement in support of Irish Republicanism. There are many more relevant comparisons to be made, and I'd venture to say that this is another of them. In both cases, with the various dissenters within the anti-Zionist movement and the Irish Republican movement, I really do sympathize with both the dissenters and the "united front." I understand that strategic unity is vital for any successful movement. But I also understand that honest debate, freedom of expression, and critical analysis of everything – very much including Jewish identity politics – is also vitally important. I hope that a unity of purpose can be maintained even with such substantive differences in our various understandings of reality and history. Moreover, I hope that Atzmon's honest efforts to disentangle the whole question of Jewishness will lead other people from other tribal backgrounds to do more of the same. And I hope that more people will read his book before they feel the need to call him an anti-Semite.
Holocaust denial
author by Trollwatchpublication date Tue Aug 13, 2013 14:16Report this post to the editors

How can one deny what is obviously a fake. A part here of the report during David's recent visit to Auschwitz, what we are told is a 'death camp'

-----------------------

But the new Holocaust-industry version of this site does not match the simple history, horrific though it is.

The site was windswept and deserted and bleak then and it has not changed much now -- except in details which do seem new.

It is now all very glitzy and glossy. Last time I was here, in March 2007, I did not remember seeing the well-built dogtooth pattern footpaths, or the plaques etched with descriptions and images into expensive stainless steel, posted near each item of interest. They are new. I was last here four years ago with Alan Heath, a good expert on these sites.

The first building encountered is the massive crematorium, with its tall single chimney dominating the whole area. Inside the gloomy wooden building, illuminated now only by dim 40 watt bulbs (of the new energy-efficient variety of course), stand the six iron crematory furnaces in their brick casing. The building occupies many rooms and is dark and gloomy.

Odd, the 1944 photos I have seen show these furnaces in the open, being inspected by Russian troops, not enclosed in a building at all. (In fact this whole building is a fake, put up in post-war years.)

I am put at once on the alert. Not sceptical, because to be even mildly sceptical in countries with "Holocaust-denial" laws is now a criminal offence. As we leave the building I notice a crew of plasterers and bricklayers busy constructing something else -- I could not see what, but judging by the stack of cement bags it appears to be quite big.

The creosoted wooden watchtowers arouse our curiosity too. They differ in design from the authentic watchtowers displayed on the wartime photos. More dummies, it seems -- meaning the towers, not the tourists who come from all over the world to tread these well-paved pathways now.

I would guess that several million dollars have been spent on this Majdanek complex since I last saw it. And I thought from the recent news items that the Reinhardt camps had run out of cash -- the Sobibor museum closing, etc. What's going on?

Graham G came here last year, after our last tour of the Nazi sites. Today I find myself repeatedly asking him, "Was this here last year? And this?" -- pointing to new exhibits, walkways, glass doors, turnstile barriers, and the like. In each case the answer is no, these are things that have been installed here in the last twelve months.

The biggest shocks are in the final building, Number 42, identified on the plans as the male showers, fumigation plant, and "gas chambers". I have to be careful here, because I am not a Holocaust denier.

I already drew attention in my March 2007 Radical's Diary to the dark blue-black stains on and right through various walls in the building -- clearly Prussian Blue, visible as cyanide compounds even without carrying out Fred-Leuchter type lab. tests. There was no reference to them in the few amateurish signs posted here four years ago.

Now there are expensive signs on glass panels in three languages, English, Polish and Hebrew, depicting these rooms -- not as gas chambers, but as fumigation chambers for clothing and the like. There is a new room with racks of brand new cans of Zyklon B cyanide-impregnated pellets, the deadly substance used for the disinfestation. Here (unlike the Soviet propaganda information fed to the Illustrated London News, August 1944, which is also on display on the site) it is made plain that the killing agent used for prisoners was not Zyklon B but "carbon-monoxide" fed into the gas chamber from cylinders in the next door room.

Ah, that explains it. I saw those two cylinders chained to the wall two years ago, but noticed at that time that the pipes going through the wall were not connected, and had quite freshly been cemented into place. The "gas chamber" room is now cordoned off, with a glass door preventing entry. All rather modern and cathedral-like. The room has a thin window half way along one wall, above shoulder height.

Hugo H-T says rather blasphemously, "If I were a prisoner, I think I'd ask for the window seat."

What kind of gas chamber has a glass window in it, indeed?

True, there are steel gas-tight doors installed at either end of this chamber, as with the other fumigation chamber too. They are standard German Luftschutz-issue air-raid shelter doors, added to the building evidently as an afterthought, just as in Krema II at Auschwitz after our bomber squadrons began reaching into Poland. The doors are installed to open outwards, and to close flush onto their exterior gastight flange as in all air raid shelters, just as Neufert defined: Neufert is the standard SS building-code manual which I introduced as evidence at the Lipstadt trial.

These doors are also equipped with standard gas-detector tubes. Moreover, all these gas-tight doors have their handles on the inside of the door. That's handy. I think I would have passed on the window seat, and moved to a seat near the exits instead. "Doors to manual, Herr Sturmführer!" Handles? I didn't have that agreeable facility on the inside of my cell door in the Vienna jail 2005-2006.

As for the gas cylinders in the little room next to the big room designated "gas chamber" by the new tourist-friendly Majdanek management -- well, to coin a contemporary phrase, Houston we have a Problem. The gas cylinders in the darkened room are clearly not carbon-monoxide, as stated on the expensive glass descriptive panels, but stamped "CO2," carbon-dioxide, which is not lethal. Oh, and they are still not connected to the room.

"So, a troll or trolls just need to post stuff about him and then he should be expunged?"

The point that you have worked hard to miss is that this is nothing to do with any trolls but is related to a long history of antisemitic writing by an Indymedia moderator streaching back some years. Now that Indymedia UK is now more or less dead and Bristol is the only thriving Indymedia site in the country he has come here to spread his message.

If you really do think this is about trolling then I suggest you take a look at the website that FTP linked to in his comment here, a website he co-founded and which he is still a regular contributor to. He was written here defending a talk from David Irvine a Nazi who denies the Holocaust, he defended the right of another antisemite to post on Indymedia that caused two other moderators to leave the collective. He is recognised by those of us who have worked with him as an antisemite.

I make it a point not to work with antisemitic racists and I assume other Indymedia moderators do the same and as such there is a call for him to be banned not just from Bindy but from the UK Indymedia project. If the things he had written about Jews had been written about black or asian people we would not be having this conversation, the wanker would be gone.

On a related point it is my view that he is also one of the main reasons why Indymedia UK is now a shadow of the site it once was and has reached a level of contribution that means it is all but ignored in the UK activist scene.

The more important point here is to ensure that Bindy readers are able to make their own minds up about David Irving and his lecture on August 21st.

Perhaps they might wish to hear him talk and make their own minds up about the story we are all told we must believe regarding the work camps of WW2 in Germany, why questioning any part of the official narrative can result in prosecution in Germany and Austria or why the author of over 30 books is not considered a person worthy of listening to. In the words of the military writer John Keegan: 'No historian of the Second World War can afford to ignore Irving.' Few contemporary scholars of the Third Reich have his depth of knowledge, virtually none has met as many of its leading figures and nobody, surely, has unearthed more original material--a private archive known as the 'Irving Collection,' always generously made available to other researchers, which weighs more than half a ton."

Shouting down the voices of radical thought has long been a Zionist tactic which I have seen in Palestine and the Occupied territories first hand. Will the Bindy mods allow it to be used here I wonder.
"work camps"
author by Mepublication date Thu Aug 15, 2013 13:06Report this post to the editors

FTP says: "make their own minds up about the story we are all told we must believe regarding the work camps of WW2 in Germany"

A couple of key words jump out:

1) "Story" implying that FTP believes it is make believe
2) "work camps" rather than concentration camps implying that FTP believes that the inmates were simply being put to work rather than routinely exterminated.

Sickening.

I have no idea what happened during the Second world War at the camps run by the Nazis and neither do you. What we have is a number of claims from various groups some of which are making money from one view being the dominant one and in cases using that collective Western guilt to excuse the actions of Israel.

If as some people claim the events of the Second World War are so clear, documented and agreed then anybody offering an alternative viewpoint will quickly be shown to be wrong, don't you agree ? Of course it may be possible that the story we have all been told since 1948 is a crock of shit that serves the needs of Zionism, let's listen to alternative viewpoints and make our minds up without being told what we must all think and believe by Jewish owned media organisations.

Crossing the line
author by Greatgrandson of a Holocaust survivorpublication date Thu Aug 15, 2013 15:16Report this post to the editors

That six million Jews died in the Sho'ah , along with many others who were not Jewish is not in doubt. The death camps are an accepted fact not a viewpoint. Of the nine million Jews who had resided in Europe before the Holocaust, approximately two-thirds were killed. Over one million Jewish children were killed in the Holocaust, as were approximately two million Jewish women and three million Jewish men. A network of over 40,000 facilities in Germany and German-occupied territory were used to concentrate, hold, and kill Jews and other victims.

David Irving is a liar, a fool, an antisemite and not even a very good historian or writer. Perhaps what is more shocking is that an Indymedia moderator and member of the UK collective is prepared to defend him and encourage people to listen to his views. I have no idea what Indymedia has become when people who hold views like that are tolerated in the organisation.
The mythical "six million"
author by Trollwatchpublication date Thu Aug 15, 2013 17:58Report this post to the editors

The ever faithful six million number that we are told we all must accept.

There were about only 3 million Jews in the Third Reich, so where did the other 3 million come from?

Why when they tested the "gas chambers" at Auschwitz there was little to no traces of Zyklon B, but why in the buildings where they cleaned the Jews of lice there are high traces of Zyklon B?

The amount of gas needed, supplies, people, and time, that would be needed to gas all those people is highly unlikely especially during the war. How would the Jews know if there were gas chambers, if everyone died who were in it, and the Germans tried to hide them?

The pictures of dead Jews, show Jews who died from starvation, because food was short deep in the war, and they were not considered citizens so they weren't fed.

Why is it illegal to deny the holocaust in Germany if they werent trying to hide anything?

Also the Auschwitz "gas chamber" was changed when the Red Army took it over, it use to have a wall to divide it, they took it down, and put hatches on the time.The doors in the "chambers" were also not sealed, so how would it work?

So those are the facts, did 6 million really die?

Comments moderating
category bristol | miscellaneous | announcement author Wednesday July 03, 2013 19:54author by Imcvol Report this post to the editors

The Bristol Indymedia Collective is now taking a much harder stance on comment moderation due to the trolling and pettiness on the website at present. So the following will now apply:

If the comment does not add to the information in the article it will be hidden.

If the comment is abusive to other commentators then it will be hidden even if it contains more information related to the article.

So if you wish to respond to the post then make it reasoned and respectful and ignore those comments which aren't, they will be hidden at some point.

We are also developing a new improved site that will have a different comments system that will allow us manage the commenting system in a much better way. We are not able to answer emails very quickly at present so please be patient, but again we will not be responding to disrespectful emails.

Thanks to all the people who are still using the site, we hope this temporary array of abuse hasn't put you off.

The Bristol Indymedia collective.

The regular posts and comments here from FTP with his odious views about Jews have no place in Bindy and he should be blocked. Indymedia UK fell apart because of him and the last thing we need is his brand of advice in Bindy.

I have not posted on that thread - so it is yet more clone trolling which
is allowed by Bindy mods - as they will be aware that I reported a
previous comment - noting that wasn't by me and was clearly intended to
appear as if it was. It was subsequently hidden.
( http://bristol.indymedia.org/hidden_articles.php?cview=...61333)

So the whole thread is based on someone impersonating me - clone trolling

Yes I share that view, seeing how easy it has been for FTP publish his antisemitic filth in support of David Irving is very disappointing. We all agree the moderators are doing a difficult job but this is an area where they need to jump all over it as fast as possible. Indymedia UK went downhill after Atzmon was defended by FTP in the face of massive evidence and we certainly don't need him here at BINDY repeating that.

A number of Indian mathematicians gave rules equivalent to the quadratic formula. It is possible that certain altar constructions dating from ca. 500 BC represent solutions of the equation, but even should this be the case, there is no record of the method of solution (Smith 1953, p. 444). The Hindu mathematician Āryabhata (475 or 476-550) gave a rule for the sum of a geometric series that shows knowledge of the quadratic equations with both solutions (Smith 1951, p. 159; Smith 1953, p. 444), while Brahmagupta (ca. 628) appears to have considered only one of them (Smith 1951, p. 159; Smith 1953, pp. 444-445). Similarly, Mahāvīra (ca. 850) had substantially the modern rule for the positive root of a quadratic. Srīdhara (ca. 1025) gave the positive root of the quadratic formula, as stated by Bhāskara (ca. 1150; Smith 1953, pp. 445-446). The Persian mathematicians al-Khwārizmī (ca. 825) and Omar Khayyám (ca. 1100) also gave rules for finding the positive root.

In what way is that a "smoking gun".

It certainly shoots down all your ludicrous theories about NORAD.

I have read the whole thing, and it all makes sense, and gives a very
good explanation as to why NORAD could do very little - and never even
managed to get a fighter jet in visual contact with any of the
hijacked planes before they crashed.

Dubai to Southampton

The world cruise starts out on its last leg as it leaves Dubai and heads for home. After a short stop in Oman and navigating through an area infamous for its piracy, the Balmoral sails up the Suez Canal and arrives at the Mediterranean port of Alexandria in Egypt.

The Reverend Colin Still and a group of passengers make a pilgrimage to the Allied War Cemetery at El Alamein to commemorate those that fell in the battle.

On board, people come together to take part in the Country Fayre to raise money for charity, and then it is time for the end-of-cruise shows by the passengers and staff on board, as well as tearful goodbyes at the end of the four-month voyage.

Cecal Worms
by Heterakis gallinae Sat Aug 17, 2013 17:18
This parasite (Heterakis gallinae) is found in the ceca of chickens, turkeys and other birds.

This parasite apparently does not seriously affect the health of the bird. At least no marked symptoms or pathology can be blamed on its presence. Its main importance is that it has been incriminated as a vector of Histomonas meleagridis, the agent that causes blackhead. This protozoan parasite apparently is carried in the cecal worm egg and is transmitted from bird to bird through this egg.

The life history of this parasite is similar to that of the common roundworm. The eggs are produced in the ceca and pass in the feces. They reach the infective form in about two weeks. In cool weather, this may take longer. The eggs are very resistant to environmental conditions and will remain viable for long periods.

The cecal worm can be effectively treated with fenbendazole. Since the worm itself produces no observable damage and the eggs live for long periods, it is advisable and necessary to keep chickens and turkeys separated to prevent spread of blackhead.
Divorce And Alcoholism Battle
by Cheyenne Jackson Sat Aug 17, 2013 17:30
Actor/singer Cheyenne Jackson has opened up about the breakdown of his marriage and confirmed rumours he is seeking help for an alcohol addiction.

The Glee star stunned fans on Thursday after releasing a statement to announce he and his husband, physicist Monte Lapka, are ending their relationship after 13 years together.

In a candid radio interview on The Frank DeCaro Show on Friday, Jackson expressed his sadness about his divorce, but heaped praise on Lapka by branding him "a wonderful man".

He said, "Yeah, it is a sad thing. It's a sad thing anytime a relationship ends. We had a good long run, almost 13 years. Like (the statement) we released yesterday, it was mutual and it was amicable. He is a wonderful man. It's a sad personal thing.

"Sometimes, I guess, I'm a little naive to think that people will even care, but they do. So, you have to understand the significance that your relationship had to other people. I know that our marriage meant a lot to other people. That's not lost on me, and I respect that."

When the Broadway performer was quizzed about speculation he is attending Alcoholics Anonymous, he insisted it was "pretty f**ked up" the story had leaked but confirmed, "That happens to be true."

He explained, "You know what, I own it. I'm proud of myself. My life is great... It's sad right now because we're both going through something that's really painful, but that's life...

"I started my recovery last summer and it became something I really wanted to focus on in my life and repairing relationships in my family and such. So, this is a really, strong, beautiful time for me, personally. It also is a very sad time because I am going through a divorce."

FTP probably will go away when Bristol IMC mods do what they claimed they would ie "The Bristol Indymedia Collective is now taking a much harder stance on comment moderation due to the trolling and pettiness on the website at present."

These comments add little of value to the Original Post which was presumably intended to galvanise people to act against David Irving when he attempts to gived a talk on Himmler in Bristol on August 31st. None of the comments (bar this one) even pretend to be relevant to that aim . It is off course equally possible that the piece was simply placed there as a way of setting up the thread to allow a fake 'ftp' to spread nonsense.

I understand that the uk mod known as ftp is busy writing an article for the Bristol newswire addressing the problematic claims on this thread - and I would wager money that it won't stay up nearly as long as these ridiculous and petty comments have been allowed to.

If he has any sense, he will also post it to the uk site, where the Bristol mods will have no ability to remove it, and where more people are likely to read it.

Then perhaps they will understand how frustrating it is to have stuff that attacks you left up, when you don't agree with it, and can't get rid of it. They might even wish they hadn't been so tardy in dealing with it in the first place. ie when they hid other stuff on the 13th ( http://bristol.indymedia.org/hidden_articles.php?sview=...65980) and 16th ( http://bristol.indymedia.org/hidden_articles.php?sview=...66001) and posted up features on the 16th ( http://bristol.indymedia.org/article/766004 and  http://bristol.indymedia.org/article/766003)

Maybe they will even get better at living up their intentions in the future........

author by A one time Bindy modpublication date Sun Aug 18, 2013 13:37Report this post to the editors

The issue is not what people think or believe about ftp but is related to his continued returning to Bindy telling people what to do because the one time Indymedia UK site is now ignored by most people. To many of us it seems ironic that because of his actions Indymedia UK is now defunct, deLiberation is laughed at and ignored so he comes here and tries to spead the same message of antisemitism that caused so many problems at Indymedia UK.

Bristol Indymedia is now the sole well supported Indymedia site left in the UK and one of the few in Europe that still has an active collective working to keep the site alive. The bigger discussion about the failure of the Indymedia project across the globe is to have elsewhere but without a doubt the way that ftp and others in the mayday collective allowed antisemitism to be accepted on their site contributed to the destruction of Indymedia UK and its current position in the activist mindset.

There is no place for him or his unpleasant views on Bristol Indymedia and I hope the current moderators block posts and comments from him.

Hearing that he is writing a feature on his view of Bristol indymedia is no great surprise, he is an person who likes to be heard ! If he publishes it to Indymedia UK it will be read by next to nobody, if he publishes it here it will be hidden as it deserves to be because comments about moderation policy and not discussed on the newswire. He knows that.
