Newton and the Pyramids – When Religion Pollutes Science! (10.10.2023)

Ancient Egyptians never encountered the Jews because Judaism as a religion is not as old as its believers assume, etc, but we can see how Newton’s thought-processes were operating. He incorrectly believed that the Jews built the Pyramids – and that ‘God’ must have directed the Jews in this activity, and so on. Therefore, Newton (like many others) believed the Pyramids were the inspired machinations of a Judeo-Christian God! Either that or Cambridge University needs funds for a new Smoking Room – and the Dons decided to auction-off one of the Newton manuscripts currently held in their possession!

How the BBC ‘Lied’ About Tribal Life – As Part of the Post-2010 Cascade of Tory-Led Establishment Lies! (1.10.2023)

Apparently, as the average ‘White’ person believes that tribal people ‘live up trees’ – the BBC Props Department was flown to Papua New Guinea to ‘construct’ convincing ‘living platforms’ built an impressive one hundred-feet up trees! Stunt Co-Ordinators were flown from the UK to ‘train’ each member of the Korowai people ‘how’ to convincingly climb the trees and to realistically ‘mount’ the platforms! All this information only represents a snapshot of BBC and British State ‘lying’ – and the fact we know about it is due to the ‘poor management’ skills of Chris Patten – rather than the opening-up of any great transparency in the British System!

Sutton: Visiting the Carshalton Water Tower! (24.9.2023)

As immense wealth was generated through the labour of the exploited masses (which involved the development of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade) a privileged middle-class developed – particularly after the English Civil Wars of the 1640s. This development saw the successful transference of the control of the ‘means of production’ (and political power) from the Aristocracy (the upper-class) to the Bourgeoisie (the middle-class) and with it the unleashing of tremendous creative force (a process magnified enormously by the ‘discovery’ of the Americas and the effective stealing of immense tracts of ‘free’ land and other resources)! Of course, the spread of British power and influence throughout other countries of the world – including Africa and Asia – opened all kinds of diverse markets which spread commodities to the four corners of the earth!

Ghana: President Urges UN to Consider Reparations for Slave Trade! (22.9.2023)

“Reparations must be paid for the slave trade,” Akufo-Addo said to an eruption of applause.

“No amount of money will ever make up for the horrors, but it would make the point that evil was perpetrated, that millions of productive Africans were snatched from the embrace of our continent, and put to work in the Americas and the Caribbean without compensation for their labor,” he said.

He also called for the illicit flow of funds from Africa to be returned to the continent.

While the current picture on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals “is not very bright,” Akufo-Addo expressed the hope that “it is within our capacity to turn things around.”

A good start would be to make the needed changes to the structures of the United Nations, “then we can rebuild trust and reignite global solidarity,” he said.

Politico: “American Whitelash” Far from Over! (4.7.2023)

“Three years after the eruption of protests following the death of George Floyd, Lowery isn’t convinced that America is any better prepared to deal with whitelash as a political force, let alone a cultural one — particularly as we head into a sharply contentious presidential election,” the report noted.

“People have talked for years about civil war,” Lowery was quoted as saying. “We don’t have something as embedded as slavery anymore, but we’re going in diametrically opposed positions; we’re ripping ourselves apart from each other.”

“I certainly think that’s true. It’s a soft civil war. One of our historical blind spots is thinking multiracial democracy — what America should be — is a settled question. Many people are not sure of that,” added the reporter.

Cuba: Why is Guantanamo Bay Still Occupied by the United States? (27.6.2023) 

In 1861, the American Civil War broke out. The war ended with the victory of the North. The victory of the North led to the rapid development of capitalism in the United States, and the United States gradually replaced Britain and France as the world’s manufacturing power, gradually preparing the country for external expansion. A wealthy and confident United States, with an expanding population and an abundance of natural resources – was ready for the development of a World Hegemony! (The Chinese language text talks of the US as a maturing bird spreading its growing and developing wings – which are full of power – and preparing to ‘fly’ to expand its territory).
