Kerry lectures the world about the "slaughter of civilians"

 US signals intent to take action against Assad regime






John Kerry. Hypocrite




The obscene hypocrisy of Kerry and the United States generally is as  breathtaking as it is nauseous. Kerry leaps in with open mouth to lecture the world that the " indiscriminate slaughter of civilians, the killing of women and children and innocent bystanders by chemical weapons is a moral obscenity". and "This international norm cannot be violated without consequences,".



Lebanon

Damascus


















 




To any right thinking person, it is ironically bizarre that when Israel violates the norm and attacks Gaza, or Lebanon or hundreds of other "targets" in the neighbouring countries generally and in the occupied territories of Palestine, the silence from Kerry and the Untied States is thunderous. White phosphorous (banned by International law when used against civilians) ,cluster bombs, depleted uranium and all the other evil paraphernalia of the Israeli war machine, is used indiscriminately against the civilian population of these locations regularly, killing thousands of men, women and children.





Gaza


Israel has carried out countless airstrikes and insurgencies in to Gaza, in addition to numerous invasions of neighbouring countries, each time killing hundreds or even thousands of civilians.  "Before Kerry or anyone else in the American administration, has the audacity to lecture the world on the "indiscriminate slaughter of civilians", they should look to their own record and their unquestioning support and acceptance of Israeli actions.

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

  http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria.                           This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a bab...

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...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
