Yesterday saw my blog post no. 2,000 published. Today’s blog post is therefore no. 2001.
The past nearly 8 years have seen the blog published most days, latterly about 28 or 29 days per month, despite concerted attempts by Jew-Zionists to shut down the blog either directly (by pressure on the hosting organization) or indirectly (via making repeated malicious and false complaints to the police and “Clown” Prosecution Service, with the idea of having me prosecuted, convicted etc and possibly ordered to cease publishing).
All attempts so far have failed. The excellent (and recommended) WordPress organization, based in the USA, has stayed true, overall, to principles of free speech and freedom of expression and, though I was eventually (in my opinion, wrongfully) prosecuted (in 2023) and (in my opinion, wrongfully) convicted, the sentence passed (in March 2024) changed nothing. The blog has been unaffected by direct court order; only by the perceived need to be more diplomatic in terms of how certain criticisms etc are couched. The legal position remains unchanged from what it was in 2023 or 2022 or, indeed, 2017.
I post, below, the blog articles around my 2023 free speech trial.
I take comfort, inter alia, in the fact that a number of my worst persecutors over the years have disappeared from view; some have died, while others have suffered other blows of Fate. Truly, “the stars in their courses fight on the side of the just” [ancient Chinese proverb].

There had to be one good thing that Labour is trying to do in terms of legislation. This might be it.

Not even 1980.
Her parents may have arrived “off the boat” (or plane) in 1980, but after having been born here (no doubt by design on the part of her parents), Kemi Badenoch returned to her (in reality) native Nigeria, where she lived in Lagos (and also in the USA) until the age of 16, i.e. in 1996. She then relocated to the UK.
This is ridiculous. The British people deserve better.
Of course she does, because she is a brainless mouthpiece of Israel and the American Jewish lobby.
When the October 2023 attack occurred, two things surprised me: I was very surprised, frankly (having spent time in Egypt and elsewhere in the Arab/Muslim world) that the Arabs were capable of both organizing and pulling off such a surprise attack, and also of keeping it a secret (assuming that they did) from the feared Israeli intelligence and security orgs.
There was something else that occurred to me, which was that the attack seemed to be, in a strategic sense, pointless, though it was at the time a tactical success (leaving aside the human cost and so on).
Of course, I assumed also —as it turned out, very mistakenly— that even if the inevitable Israeli response was far from actually “proportionate”, that it would be relatively so. I assumed that the Israelis would be satisfied with killing maybe 2,000 or 3,000 Gazans in retaliation for the supposed 1,200 killed by Hamas operatives in October 2023 (though it seems that many of those may have been killed in reckless “friendly fire” by the Israelis themselves).
I did not think that Israel would kill 42,000+ people, mainly civilians (indeed, mainly women and children), and horribly injure another 100,000+. The “genocidal” Israeli revenge still continues at time of writing.
I have no idea why the Hamas leadership did not bide its time, extend and expand its tunnel network, create perhaps one or more deep long-distance tunnels reaching far up the Israeli coast or even to Central Israel, then make a more devastating incursion at a much later date, perhaps not for years. That will be a question to be pondered upon by military specialists at staff colleges in the coming years.
We shall probably never know.
Hard to believe that there are people who treat their companion animals so badly; if found, they must be punished (and in the USA usually are, in contrast with the weak sentencing too often seen in UK animal cruelty cases).
Brave but incautious. She might have done better to find a way of striking at the Kiev regime covertly.
There you have it, though— the Kiev-regime, and Zelensky-regime, police state. No elections, no trade unions, no free speech.
That is the “free and democratic Ukraine” being pushed and promoted by NWO/ZOG puppets such as Biden and Starmer.
Is there anything that “they” will not make money out of?
