An Article on the Grenfell Tower Tragedy and the ‘Regeneration Agenda’…

A lot of conspiracy theories have been floating around online about the tragic Grenfell Tower fire: I’m not really buying any of them. This horrible, terrible event looks less like ‘conspiracy’ and more a simpler case of mismanagement, apathy and criminal negligence.   However, this article by Joseph Downing (Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS)) for […]

SAIF GADDAFI – Officially Released and Almost Assassinated…

As reported by RT, hundreds of people took to the streets in Ghat, on Saturday night, to celebrate the release of Saif Gaddafi after several years of detention. The footage shows honking cars driving through the streets. Other Gaddafi supporters were seen waving the green flags of the ‘Great Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya’, as […]

THERESA MAY & the DUP: Moral Hypocrisy, State-Sponsored Terror & Why This Feels Sinister…

It is not all that often that something happens that seems to conveniently bring together so many of the different subjects I’ve been talking about recently. In this case, concerning Theresa May and the DUP, this article manages to string together multiple subjects I’ve been posting about previously, including false-flag terrorism, MI5 and state collusion […]

The Terrible TRUTH About the Manchester Attack, the British Government & ‘Salman Abedi’…

There is something very, very important to understand about the terrorist attack in Manchester on Monday night. And it is something that virtually all mainstream media outlets have failed to – or will continue to deliberately avoid – talking about. Because they don’t want their average audiences – and the general public – to have […]

ORSON WELLES & ‘CITIZEN KANE’: Seeking a Multi-Level Understanding of a Masterpiece…

In a mansion in the fictional Xanadu, a vast palatial estate in Florida, the elderly Charles Foster Kane is on his deathbed. Holding a snow globe, he utters the mysterious word “Rosebud” and then dies; the snow globe slips from his hand and smashes on the floor. And that’s how one of cinema’s most iconic […]

The ‘SUNSHINE POLICY’: North Korea, Geo-Politics & How Different Things Might’ve Been…

It is interesting, as the tensions and provocations between North Korea, the US and China continue, that it wasn’t that long ago when South and North Korea appeared to be moving mutually towards more cooperation and friendlier relations. Things, it appeared, could’ve been very different.  Before South Korea’s more conservative presidents decided to  break ties […]

The Case Against Asma al-Assad: A Darker Motive Behind Calls for Her Citizenship to be Revoked…?

I posted up an old video of Asma al-Assad last week, because I thought her sentiments in the recording really resonated with what has been going on in Syria and the Middle East in recent years. I didn’t know, however, that a couple of days later the UK newspapers would feature sudden articles calling for […]

Erdogan’s Grip on Power & Turkey’s Divorce from Europe…

It is difficult to think of a ‘Muslim’ society as progressive, modernist and liberal as Turkey has traditionally been, particularly as it is also a democracy. This makes Turkey a relatively unique society in the world and a positive example of how moderate Sunni Islam and modern democratic and secular government and principles can co-exist […]

NORTH KOREA: A Carefully Maintained Dystopia With a Right to Defend Itself…

I was watching some of the BBC news reports from North Korea’s military parade during the ‘Day of the Sun’ celebrations. It was a rare occasion in which select foreign reporters were allowed – under very close supervision (and minus their phones) – into the North Korean capital. The celebrations happen every year, but the […]
