No Trump and Netanyahu, You are wrong. Jerusalem is NOT "the capital of Israel".

The United Nations General Assembly does not recognize Israel's proclamation of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

The wording of General Assembly Resolution 63/30 of 2009 states that "any actions taken by Israel, the occupying Power, to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration on the Holy City of Jerusalem are illegal and therefore null and void and have no validity whatsoever, and calls upon Israel to cease all such illegal and unilateral measures.


In recognising Jerusalem as the Israeli capital, the United States defies the United Nations and joins Israel in another illegal act and drives another nail into the coffin of the Peace Process.

At the same time as Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner with Trump himself on video link opened the "United States Embassy" in Jerusalem, the IDF at the Gaza "border fence", shot and killed more than 50 unarmed Palestinians and wounded more than a thousand others, in what Mark Regev, Benjamin Netanyahu and the barbaric Israeli Defence Force, describe as an act of "self defence", using the now well worn but still untrue cliche of, "Israel is defending itself". The excessive use of "live fire", tear gas and snipers by the IDF against unarmed civilians is both barbarous and inhuman but is nevertheless a regular occurance in Gaza, the West Bank and the other occupied territories.
Yesterday witnessed just the latest atrocities carried out by the occupying forces in Palestine and should provoke anger and condemnation by civilised countries around the world. For how much longer can Europe and the rest of the world stand by and do nothing in the face of the United States and Israeli crimes against the people of Palestine?
Since 1948 the world has crossed over and "passed by on the other side" as generations of Palestinians have been subjected to occupation, persecution and slaughter on an unprecedented scale.
Governments should hold their heads in shame at their indifference to and acquiescence of Israeli and United States actions in the tragic land of Palestine.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

The Parliamentary Labour Party conspirators are hatching another coup.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-labour-leadership-rebel-mps-a7202641.html Labour MPs plan for Corbyn victory  and plot how to confront an emboldened leader Even for the "Independent", the number and use of unnamed anonymous "sources" in this article is quite astonishing. However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to

New Agenda on Sunday is out Sunday, Apr. 28, 2019

https://paper.li/f-1346065353#/ Good morning everyone. Last weeks scare regarding Megan and Harry being sent to live "somewhere in Africa" seems to have been dispelled, at least for the time being. It now seems that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will take up residence in California.  Unless  they are actually  doing  some proper work in "The Golden State", I hope that they are taken off the civil list so that we do not have to fund their life choice. The nauseating Daily Mail is at it again. A headline this week, which I will not even bother to reproduce here, screams out in disgusting and repulsive bias without any acknowledgement to the factual basis of their "story". Spewing out their usual smears and embellished distortions about Hamas, the IRA, Hezbollah and the rest, the Mail condemns itself with ample justification, for the closure of a "newspaper," which again abuses 10 fold, the privilege of "freedom of t
