A well-written, well-thought-out piece, good job!

As for me, and I think we're in the same chapter if not on the same page, I think everything Israel says is a LIE, that they are willing to sell the Pal's land as long as they get to inhabit it, the genocide will continue once the world is convinced things are all happy and cheerful in Palestine, and will be harder to notice, and Israel will end up being the cause of a LOT of deaths, of themselves and of plenty of others.

And the End Goal is to kill us ALL, including the Israelis, and I imagine they'll be among the first to go; once we've been curbed down to a manageable number, and then the tools being used to cull us down will be culled. Those still here will be slaves...

I think it's a psychotic plan put together by psychopaths. No wonder it's hard to believe.

And it's not going to work. It's like planning for some of us to grow wings and others to grow tails, and then somehow ARMING those people... With magically effective sticks and stones.

And it will likely end up with the Globalistas being culled, or, as I would prefer, jailed forever.

And it will be a Very Wild Ride for a while, and then we will find our True Path, which may or may not include outside influence of Space Friends, or some sort of Rapid Physical Evolution... RPE.

It's going to be Fine, in the end-- or at least, at the end of THIS particular episode... In the meantime, I do believe that setting our sights on how to be KIND, DECENT, JUST, to each other is a good goal, and while we navigate toward a workable form of anarchy, or something of the kind, that is free of govt, free of tyranny, and free of The Borg. Get back to healthy farming/food, healthy homes and healthy animal friends (no jabs for anybody!), stop culling birds, etc etc etc...

A sort of revisitation of the Old Days, with more knowledge from the New Days, such as the availability, AND USE, of FREE ENERGY...

Cheers! (And, Let's MAKE IT SO, as Picard would say.)

Great to see you here, agree with what you have so eloquently written, Jaan x

Credible or not, a belief system is an agreement and agreements can be changed. We all have to learn discernment and that is done through the heart, not ever the head...especially of pundits!

So, what does your heart say?

Those who've created the problem should never be allowed to come up with ''solutions''.

But it's why they create the problem in the first place - the 'solutions' are the name of the game.

I think that plenty of 'intelligent' people would understand that nothing ever happens unless it was planned that way - a case of 'money replacing morality' a phenomenon not unique to those at the top - for everyone who knows what's going on, silence is complicity.

People have become so dependent on 'money' that they no longer know how to live without it which makes them unlikely to challenge the system.

This is a greater plan, it always has been and now “they’ have the go ahead. Gaza has always been a “showroom ‘ a testing ground for weaponry and control methods , all unspeakably cruel. That can be used on us , if we resist , but I doubt we have the courage of the Palestinians . Thanks for this clear explanation , it helps to really know whats going on…not the BBC or Sky propaganda.

“Such is the shamelessness and tragic irony of the Zionist corporate propaganda machine.”

And yet like the observation of how the old Overton window had to be ground as far over to the Right as possible in order to present the centre or even the slightly rightward centre as “extreme Left”, the Israel sanctioned Western media coverage must be presented as “Hamas controlled”!

“The standard Leftist anti-imperialist commentary celebrates the conservative independent media’s U-turn from pro- to anti-Israel. What they fail to question is why and how they suddenly found their scruples, especially given that that section of the commentariat has never had a serious problem with US savagery and US-sanctioned Israeli savagery before.”

Just as they failed to question the miraculous Scrooge like repentance of 2020 amidst “the pandemic”, when the ruling class suddenly woke up to the deadly dangers of capitalism and apparently staged their own supremely low-profile revolution. Indeed, so low profile that we only knew about it when the “ever reliable” media righteously pushed “people before profits” at us.

That the Left’s hitherto mistrust of the media was suddenly abandoned for a starry-eyed acceptance was yet another oddly unquestioned development.

And talking about questioning,

“The US conservative right commentariat is now staunchly anti-Israel and anti-Zionist. Fantastic. About time.”

When your enemy starts to sing your song, it’s time to question your song.

And the rising Catholic conversion movement is very interesting. Russell Brand? Candice Owen? (Did you know that John Wayne – yes, the very man! – converted to Catholicism on his death bed? Ooh! – Cue theme from Twilight Zone!)

Had a good old chuckle at the John Wayne conversion. I myself have a Roman Catholic confession to make, but it's the opposite of conversion. I renounced the Pope some time ago. I was educated by Jesuits (yes, the intelligence and military arm of the Vatican, although my bunch were more Dad's army than MI6). My moment of Catholic apostasy arrived when I bunked off Friday mass and was caught. The punishment was 6 whacks on the palm of the hands with a strap made of heavy rubber. I looked the priest in the eye and said, "Father, I refuse to be beaten for my religious beliefs." He said, "Shoniwa, get 6 or get expelled." I caved immediately and took the strap. But I'm not bitter.

I confess (How Catholic!) to having a "Freudian" ("Jungian" - oh i dunno!) envy of Catholics. I was an only child (from grim Calvinist stock!) and the boy next door (also an only one - at first) was Catholic. He was then joined by a brother ....and a sister ... and then another brother. So I felt I was being gradually squeezed out!

But I'm not bitter either!

I just found out what ":)" means. This -

"A colon followed by a right parenthesis is used to indicate a smiling face. The two dots of the colon are the eyes, and the curve of the parenthesis is the mouth. Similarly, a colon followed by a left parenthesis is a frowning face."

You wacky youngsters with your techno snazzy ways!

Don’t feel left out if the classic :) smiley didn’t register. I was replying to my mostly younger reading group, who were expressing themselves with emojis, and wanted to send a heart. Not knowing where to find one, I simply wrote, “For lack of a better emoji, here’s a heart in words.”

I was reminded about the joke of a staunch Irish Protestant upon nearing death asked for a Priest, his friends asked why after years of being a staunch Protestant does he want to turn Catholic, the man replied because he preferred a Catholic to die, than a Protestant

And then there's the one about the guy out in Belfast at night when he gets stopped by a gang who ask "Are you a Catholic or a Protestant?" He pauses and nervously says, "I'm a Jew!" And they say, "Would that be a Catholic Jew or a Protestant Jew?"
