True reasons of the recent attack on Su-24

14-12-2015 08:36

More than a week has passed since the sudden attack of the Turkish F-16 jet on the Russian Su-24 bomber. The time was skillfully used to divert attention of the international community from the exploring of the true reasons behind the attack to discussion of the impact rupture in relations between Turkey and Russia. Those debates, that successfully stole the spotlight, were rather captivating but surely of minor importance.

Meanwhile, the data coming from the Syrian Kurds makes it possible to see the picture as a whole.

After Paris attacks, Muslim people face rising tide of Islamophobia all over Eur

14-12-2015 08:05

Racist graffiti and pig heads thrown into mosques, veiled Muslim women subjected to insults and harassments in the streets, the Internet awash threats against Muslim – tolerance in Europe got limits.

After bloody attacks in Paris, anti-Islamic mood emerges all over the European Union countries. In some places the atmosphere is really red-hot: police step up regular mosques patrol while women wearing hijabs are strongly recommended to use personal transport and avoid showing in the public.

Warming Limitation Treaty a Scam, says VCVG

12-12-2015 16:48

In a nutshell, the diplomatic battle between politicians, scientists and activists can be compared to a dynastic inheritance war of the pre-democratic period, in which there used to be four sides: The monopoly clingers, the innovation rivals, the alarmed neighbours and the suffering people. These four sides would then prevail in that order, structuring the feud into four periods: The rebellion, the intervention, the famine and the restoration. In the climate fight, all these ingredients – the fossil lobby, the scientific community, the activist counter- or perma-culture and the war-weary masses – can be found in the set and setting gravitating around the recent diplomatic event in Paris. But a lion´s share of all four also is alive in the Arab Independence Movement – oil administration privileges, cutting-edge counter-intelligence strategy, regional rooting and popular backing. And yet the elephant in the room was not invited to the table in Paris.

GRINTZ #TROLL REAL IDENTITY @virgilcaine1 @slatfascists @slatedl @loup_dargent

05-12-2015 10:18

It is matter of prime importance that we expose the individual behind the online harassment of a certain obnoxious serial troll who maliciously poses as a leftwing activist to tweet extreme racial abuse including anti-Semitism towards people in the public realm to obtain notoriety, much in the same way as jailed far right troll Joshua Bonehill. Once believed to be Bonehill, the Grintz accounts are still active, and are now known to be the work of someone else. Earlier this week, Labour leadership candidate Liz Kendal received horrific abuse from the latest Grintz incarnation - "Dominic Grintz" - AKA "Comrade" which has made the national newspapers including the Telegraph. Grintz's real name is believed to Daniel Abell, and is believed to be living in the Stratford Area.

GERMAN NAZIS INVADING BRUM @ant1fane #ANTIFA @2ferdi7 @misscheeky666 @SLATUKIP

Birmingham Confirmed
ANTIFA NATIONAL CALL OUT - BIRMINGHAM 06/02/16 - Tommy Robinson, convicted wifebeater and fraudster has officially announced on his Twitter that Birmingham will be the location of the upcoming Germanic neo-Nazi goosestep. The date to make a note of in your antifascist diaries is Saturday the 6th of February, which, as intended, because Yaxo is shit-scared of the UAF, is the date of their London conference. What Tommy and puppeteer Hel "Growler" Gower have failed to understand, having been so long out of the far right scene is ANTIFA (proper antifascists) are now the antifascist force on the streets, and will not be penned in by the cops. Aided by Irish Republicans.

EGG ON UKIP FACES @slatukip #ANTIFA @slatedl @misscheeky666 @JLRFB @siegfails

04-12-2015 09:40

Last night, UKIP were well and truly hammered in the Oldham by-election, and as such, a serious dose of egg was self-administered to their extreme rightwing faces. For all of the inane posturing about how they would beat Labour and help "trash" Jeremy Corbyn, when it came down to the nitty-gritty of polling day, there was no imaginary surge towards UKIP that the idiots had been tweeting and Facebooking for weeks.

BUCKBY INDENTIFIES "SCOTT" AS TIM ARNOLD @siegfails @edlnews @ant1fane @JLRFB

03-12-2015 22:52

Neo-nazi loner formerly of the BNP and the National Culturalists, Jack Buckby identifies the bumbling, brainless "Muslamic Ray Guns" / "What's That Symbol All Over Oldham" clone who Tommy has appointed his deputy, who gave his name as "Scott" on the Channel Four documentary as Tim Arnold. Is this his actual name???

Is this in any way true??? Is his surname Arnold? If so, can his Facebook profile be tracked down and screenshotted???

Hel Gower Grinds Tommeh's Little Monkey
Anybody thinking grass and wife-beater Tommy "The Tit" Robinson is running things at Pegida UK, since hijacking the organisation for his own personal benefit, think again. From the earliest days at the EDL, Stephen Yaxley Lennon has been stage-managed to give speeches by his (state?) handler Helen Gower, or "Lel" as she likes to call herself. Growler, as the EDL call her, like Tommy, loves money, and she is the brains behind everything poor little Tommy does. Whilst Tommy Tit is the figurehead at Pegida, Growler is in change of his brain, as "Team Tommy. She even wipes Tommy's pimply bottom, powders it, and spanks it, at the right price.

Commissioner to Athens: Meat for Austerity

02-12-2015 14:07

When a hospital goes over the brink of operational sanity into the gutter of the market, it is not that one bed of it shuts down after another, but long before that the average time an employee is available to a patient goes down. The overall picture is not so much the cutting of a bundle of flowers out of a reservoir of abundance, but the cutting of a lawn – you can only pluck those daisies before austerity comes through. It is the opposite of healing, where change is expected to take place whose worth is not entirely consumed by the ensuing side-effects or these of the compensations thereof. Austerity, as the term is being used outside the Himalayas, puts shake-up first and the elimination of side-effects later.

ICJ bans hitchhunters

02-12-2015 14:05

It broke out on Tamil Elam, spread through India and Israel, and from there into Europe and the Americas: Hitchhunters – regime agents masquerading as people like you and me taking a hitchhiker. They have long been a threat to social sanity, since no one except a total newbie would enter a car whose driver has preyed on their communications without getting prepared for a fight over their ego´s steering wheel. You know that you have a hitchhunter when it is beginning to mention details from your phone calls with your grand mother, the Pink Fishbowl Guide says. Now international jurisdiction has stopped the practice as incompatible with human rights.
