Hypocrites on Parade

The French Solidarity rally on the 11th of January, following the terrorist attacks, brought out some very strange political bedfellows .... allegedly all at the invite of President François Hollande of France.

Paris March Hijacked By Politician Hypocrites

Now at face value of it, all this solidarity is all very laudable, except that many of those leaders who attended, have regimes with no 'freedom of speech'.

Catnip Christmas

What to do with old Christmas trees has been a problem for over a century.

Composting Old Xmas Trees Takes A Long Time

Some are just thrown on to the garden waste (where they can last a very, very, long time before they decompose) ... so not that popular anymore.

 

Flying Saucers To Mars

All the 'UFO's ever 'seen' (and we have covered the subject a few times), are earth sourced .... no evidence of an extraterrestrial source has ever been proven. So the news that NASA are considering developing spacecraft that strongly resembles a flying saucer, will confirm to many, that all UFO's are merely mistaken natural events that are misunderstood, such as 'ball lightening', or test flights of different designs by aviation companies e.g. Stealth Bombers. 

British Rail Had Plans To Expand Its Fleet.

Of course the Nazi Flying Saucer, or Alien Technology at 'Area 51' (actually hanger 18, 'foreign technology section', at the Wright Patterson Airbase for 'true' followers of these things), conspiracists, won't be put off, because this news can easily be accommodated within their belief system via backward engineering.

US Presidential Dynasty's

Who would have thought it (well we did sometime ago), but another cowboy is preparing to ride into town, as ex-Florida governor Jeb Bush, brother and son of US Presidents, is taking the first little steps towards a run on the White House in 2016.

We Three Kings - US Presidential Royalty.

Now unlike his brother, he is pro-immigration reform, his wife being a Mexican national, and he supports the federal Common Core education programme, and doesn't belong to the religious wing of the Republican party.

 

Apologists For Silence

We in the West live in a civilisation, in which women are declared as equal to men, in which we are free to not bend to any religious dogma, where freedom of expression is or should be an absolute imperative, where freedom of thought should be be non-negotiable, and the freedom to speak out against tyranny or threats is a baseline.

 

Sheikh Harith al-Nadhari - 'Limit To Free Speech'

So while no one is suggesting that everything Charlie Hebdo drew, or wrote was funny (especially outside of France, where most French humour falls flat) ... but defending their freedom to say, draw and write what they wanted, is fundamental to what we are, or rather were, until we were asked by many to change our way of life, to accommodate one new group migrating into our civilisation .... but now "the danger within" (as one German security source has described them), is likely to force us to either react, or submit (accommodation is simply not an option).
