Zionism and The Irish Plantations - the same thing, different places, different populations, same power.

Zionist Colonialism is the same pattern as the Protestant Plantations of Ireland. 




It is the same weapon. 


Deployed by the same Power.

The phrase "To Hell or to Connacht" dis not mean a
choice between hell and the province of Connacht, but rather that the only options for Irish Catholics during Oliver Cromwell's Cromwellian Plantation in the 17th century were to die (go to Hell) or be forcibly transplanted to the Connacht province. 


The Commonwealth's Act for the Settlement of Ireland of 1652 mandated this mass displacement, and those who refused to leave their ancestral lands or were found east of the River Shannon after a certain deadline were killed.


Is this not what is being done in Gaza and the West Bank?


Every wealth-as-power cult behaves in the same presenting patterns.


They all curate bigotry to divide their funding populations, they people whose labour they exploit and from whose spending they extract wealth, always protected by legalised organised violence.


Different labels are used to gaslight in favour of one side or another... depending who is telling the story, controlling the narrative. 


Across Europe, Monarchies and Militarised Democracies have behaved and continue to behave in pretty much the same manner, sending millions of ordinary people to die the most disgusting deaths on frontlines. 

King Charles and wannabe-Emperor Trump sat side by side, praising the sacrifice of millions of Ukrainian innocents, ignoring the Gazan Genocide and other ongoing mass slaughter events, praising each others empire of wealth and influence. 


Zionism is the same pattern as the Protestant Plantations of Ireland. It is the same weapon.


People who have been groomed for national pride tend not to dig into the guts of their counties history, they are taught to compare and contrast variations of the same thing as if they are different - Zionism is not Apartheid is not Nazism is not Fascism is not Communism etc, etc - in order to  prevent critical minds seeing the patterns of behaviour as patterns of behaviour, without the labels.


Europeans have started every world war of the past 500 years.

For the English, the Germans, the French, the Spanish, the Italians, the Portuguese, the Belgians, the Poles, the Russians : because their grandparents suffered so dreadfully on frontlines, they dare not admit that their ancestors were sacrificed for the Empire of Wealth-as-Power.  


Cannon fodder tends to have different beliefs driving them to stupid deaths, than those of their Rulers.


Those wars were wars of competing Empires for the freedom of Empires to continue to Empire. No one wants to admit this.


To do so would be to acknowledge their that ancestors pain and trauma was in vain, that it was caused by the ruling class and that the promise of freedom was indeed an empty promise. 


That would feel like a second betrayal of their ancestors, compounding the first betrayal, the one that sent them through to the front lines.


And so the English laud Churchill as an anti-Fascist.


They have no idea what a monstrous political activist Churchill really was. They dare not admit what their Ruling Class are.


Antifa

The anti-fascist resistance first emerged within the Slovene minority in Italy (1920–1947), whom the Fascists meant to deprive of their culture, language and ethnicity 


The first anti-fascist organization, called TIGR, was formed by Slovenes and Croats in 1927 in order to fight Fascist violence. Its guerrilla fight continued into the late 1920s and 1930s. By the mid-1930s, 70,000 Slovenes had fled Italy, mostly to Slovenia (then part of Yugoslavia) and South America.


he 1920 burning of the National Hall in Trieste, the Slovene center in the multi-cultural and multi-ethnic Trieste by the Blackshirts, was praised by Benito Mussolini (yet to become Il Duce) as a "masterpiece of the Triestine fascism" (capolavoro del fascismo triestino)....


In Germany, in the 1920s and 1930s, the anti-Fascists were the Communist Party, Trade Unionists...


Appease me once, appease me twice, appease me every time.


Britain's establishment appeased German militarism, all the way to the Poland invasion, because they saw each other as of similar North European Protestant heritage.


The Russians, Orthodox Christians, traditional enemies of Catholicism and Protestantism, did the most damage to the German military system. The British and American bombers do the most damage to the German civilians.


Patriots?


common sense

the arrogance of Tommeh Ten Names.


The March of last week, with 150,000 flag waving 'patriots' were marching to support Zionism as much as they were doing anything else. Tommeh is a Zionist first, a British Nationalist second. The English and Jewish Defence League. EDL. An organisation created with English Zionist funding. Zionist establishment in the UK need mass civil disruption they can crack down on. They smell the scent of freshly painted cells at The Hague.


Churchill was a reluctant anti-Fascist.


https://tribunemag.co.uk/2020/05/how-churchill-crushed-greeces-anti-fascist-resistance


"Across more than three years, the Greek people had waged a mass resistance against the fascist occupiers — the Italians, the Bulgarians, and above all the Germans — in which they had shown heroic courage in the face of a boundless terror.


Yet a new terror now began to strike the country; for while collaborators preserved their posts at the head of the army, the police, and the organs of state power, the partisans were persecuted, deported, and executed anew. For long years, up until 1974, the Greek resistance was presented as a criminal enterprise by successive governments. While the Resistance was finally recognised in 1982, it is still not the object of any official commemoration."


Churchill. He was reluctantly anti-Nazi, intellectually pro-Colonialism, a political Zionist out of hatred for Arab peoples, not out of any love or respect for Jewish people, rabidly anti-socialist.


His words about Palestine, and the Native peoples of North America, South America and Australia and the Irish reveal his true thinking on these matters...


Trumps latest stance is openly Anti-Antifa - anti antiFascism.


His most recent self lauding speech at the sitting beside King Charles III of England, Great Britain and the Common Wealth was abject, his lack of education and finesse thrown into sharp focus compared to the Kings public ease and practiced grace and Trump was clearly uncomfortable, clearly in the junior position.  That said, Charlies education and finesse masks systemic cruelty and venality, oozes arrogance and is not a benign attribute of his character. Both men are ugly men.

Humpty Trumpty, and all the Kings Men....


The Fat Cheaty Golfer and the UN.

Yesterdays speech at the UN - in which he slated the UN for a broken lift, (his own videographer caused the stoppage of the lift) and for the malfunctioning teleprompter (his now team were operating the teleprompter) turned out to be a Fascist 'Gender Reveal' Party. The Nude Emperor went full monty. 

He said the UN was responsible for the mass immigration of convicts, rapists, pedophiles, gangsters and crooks across borders. He ignored the Genocide he and the last US Administration have been perpetrating.

Obviously he denies the Corporate Tech Bro Fascism of Christian White Supremacy that permeates his voter and funding base, he denies the Zionist Christian ideology of his Faith Minister, Paula McCain, who sells indulgences as a business model. They are not German, and as such cannot be accurately called Nazi, even though there are Neo-Nazi's amongst his base.  

That said the term 'de-nazification' is being used by Israeli Human Rights advocacy to describe the situation within Israel.

"The urgent task now is to bring this holocaust to an end. But stopping it is only the first step. If Israeli society is ever to return to the fold of humanity, it must undergo a deep process of denazification.

Once the dust of death settles, we will have to retrace our steps back to the Nakba, to the mass expulsions, the massacres, the land seizures, the racial laws, and the ideology of inherent supremacy that normalized contempt for the native people of this land, and the theft of their lives, property, dignity, and the futures of their children. Only by confronting this deadly mechanism inherent to our society can we begin to uproot it.

This denazification process must begin now, and it starts with refusal. Refusal not only to take an active part in Gaza’s destruction, but to put on the uniform at all — regardless of rank or role. Refusal to remain ignorant. Refusal to be blind. Refusal to be silent. For parents, it is a duty necessary to protect the next generation from becoming perpetrators of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Denazification must also include the recognition that what was cannot remain. It will not be enough to simply replace the current government. We must abandon the myth of Israel’s “Jewish and democratic” character — a paradox whose iron grip helped pave the way to the catastrophe we are now immersed in. 

This deception must end with the clear recognition that only two paths remain: either a Jewish, messianic, genocidal state, or a truly democratic state for all its citizens."

Humpty Trumpty claimed to have stopped seven wars, all on his own.  

He said the UN was useless, they the UN did not send him even a letter to acknowledge his success as a peacemaker.. Nuttayhoos Nobel Peace Prize nomination must be giving him an arousal, he cannot tie the UN to a bed to have his way, and so he is very, very angry. Blood has gone from his under utilised brain to his nether regions.

The Big Orange Egg told the world's leaders that climate disruption is a scam, that coal is beautiful and clean, that the wind does not blow enough and therefore windmills are pathetic, he warned that Europe should stop buying Russian oil and should buy American oil and gas instead. He claimed that China makes windmills, and generates no electricity - outright lie - and sells them to other countries, as a clever business trick.

The Bloated Golfer Who Cheats even when people are looking on,  referenced COVID as biological warfare. Subtext China.

He is irrevocably incorrigible and nasty, he has no redeeming features whatsoever and those who enable him appear to be of similar demeanour.

So as a poet, I might as well go for it.


Humpty Trumpy Shat on us all.


Humpty Trumpty.

Shat on us all.

He'll shit on us tomorrow,

and all through Fall.


All the Kings Horses 

and All the Kings men

Will help Trumpty Dumpty 

shit on us again.


And again.


As they have done for 1000 years.


The Normans, and their heirs.


Thus he'll shit on us for Thanksgiving,

For Christmas and New Year,

Starmer will wipe his behind, 

He's that kind of Peer.


The effluent is in the room,

the stench burns our souls,

Reeking of cruelty is their ultimate buzz,

Don slapped young girls,

complaining of bondage

disabled for rape,

with his micro appendage,

so too with the Free Press,

he will sign a decree

"It is illegal, you pundits, to speak ill of me!"


The Eagle is indeed ill,

long has it been so,

but at least now - 
everyone knows!

The Dream Bubble burst,

the West is awake.

Better get moving, 

for our children's sake.


Fascism's last stand is our first call,

we must dismantle this structure,

once and for all.



------------

Free Palestine! Free America! Free Britain!

Global Strike to prevent the Occupation of Gaza. Oppose Palestine Inaction, everywhere

The claims of the Western Powers regards the justifications and meanings of WWII are void. They were void then and it has taken 80 years of global brutality to burst that sordid bubble of propaganda. We Western citizens and tax payers have worked for and funded the wars our countries have waged ever since. This must be stopped and we are the only ones who can. This falls on us that it may not fall on our children The time is now.
 





I have long called for General Strikes to force Governments to uphold and enforce International Law. The first time I did so was in the lead up to the invasion of Iraq. The Foreign Office most senior legal advisors had already confirmed, in writing, that the invasion was illegal. Senior advisors resigned from long careers.  Their letters were published and censored.  

We have failed to hold Blair to account. Now we are being forced to reap what he and others have sown. But what we reap is as nothing compared to what the Iraqi and Afghan, the Libyan and Syrian, the Congolese and Sudanese, the Palestinians have been forced to endure. 

We, as citizens and tax payers, had the legal right and the moral duty then and there, as we still do,  to take every possible action to stop the British Government from committing the crime of a War of Aggression. 

We might have stopped Blair had we gone to general strike. 

USA may well have proceeded any way. General Strikes across the 'Coalition of The Willing' might have deterred others from participating. we will never know...

Zionism is not Judaism. The conflation of the two is the most devious scam of the Zionists, In Israel and across Europe and America and elsewhere. Honest Jewish people who saw through that were labelled as 'self hating Jews' by the Zionists and Anti-Semtic by their allies.

A general strike may well bring the British Government down, and it will not stop the current military operation in Gaza, immediately. We could stop all the material support going to Israel and that would be a good start to holding the State of Israel and it's depraved leaders and it's rabid population that supports the genocide accountable.

Bono, Wealth-as-Power, Gaza (Give to the Rich to Help the Poor!) "The Thieves with No Shame"

Give to the Rich to Help the Poor!

As an introduction to this item, a short TikTok on the courage of the Al Jazeera reporter Anas Al-Sharif, recently slaughtered in his tent, trying to catch up on some sleep, among with four of his colleagues. 


This blog essay refers back to piece of polemic about Bono and his 'charidee' efforts which was written in 2009... and I decided to update it after U2 released statements on The genocide that fell far short of being honest and viable.

Bono and Label Red, a 'well meaning' scam?

Back in 2009 I had been doing a lot of reading on the American Express and Bono founded Label Red campaign

Label red was founded in 2006. The idea was that 1% of sales of goods using the Label Red marker would go to AIDS charities working in Africa. Young people were exercised on the issue of African impoverishment. Companies were seeking young people as evolving consumers....

In 2008 American Express joined the campaign, issuing new car scheme targeting younger consumers. The business objective of their campaign was to enrol a million new young customers, hopefully as life long users of the service.

What I found as I read more and more was quite disturbing, yet not at all surprising. More about that below.

Celebrity is a weapon of Wealth-as-Power.

Seeing pop stars who are incredibly wealthy stand next to political leaders who cause great harm makes sense.

Celebrities are not really real people - they are performance theatre, actors performing for the purpose of extracting wealth, and when they join the Wealth-as-Power Class they enter the class war, because they stay silent on the causes of impoverishment, warfare, racism, misogyny that emanate from the process of Wealth-as-Power extraction of wealth from exploited populations. 

Update to 2025... 

Bono and the Band U2 release public statements on The Genocide, having supported Israel and America all the way these past two years and more... their statements protect Israel, lay all the blame on Netanyahu and Hamas, evade confronting USUK and EU Governments directly, they silence the voices of Palestinians by exclusion of any mention of their voices and they amplify the bands public hand wringing escapism. Bono accepted a medal from Biden, in the midst of the Genocide - he should have rejected it publicly, if he really was going to support the Palestinian people as a public voice.


Here is just one example of the kind of false, bland, unexamined narrative Bono deploys in his 'opinion piece'. clearly he has made no effort any all to understand the details of the complexity and see what is it that complicates the Western response - what complicates the Western response is that Israel is a British Empire Weapon, since 1915 and the first insertion of European Jewish refugees... 
Bono is an Honoury Knight Commander of the British Empire. Bono's words ring hollow, masked propaganda most of his fans ought to see right through.

"Yahya Sinwar didn’t mind if he lost the battle or even the war if he could destroy Israel as a moral as well as an economic force. Over the next months as Israel’s revenge for the Hamas attack appeared more and more disproportionate and disinterested in the equally innocent civilian lives in Gaza… I felt as nauseous as everyone, but reminded myself Hamas had deliberately positioned themselves under civilian targets, having tunneled their way from school to mosque to hospital."

1. Bono has no idea what Yahya Sinwar 'minded'. Furthermore Sinwar was a representative of a larger body of people than himself, and was quite clearly not driven by self interests of any kind. His last moments demonstrated the courage that the 1916 Rising fighters, including who were executed by British Military order in 1916. Yahya Sinwar's writings and public utterances, which no doubt Bono has not pored over with any great interest, and his actions throughout his life, all of which are quite well documented, support that contention. A philosophy of courage, resistance and service to his people. Bono's sentence implies Sinwar was casual about all of this. As if he could't care less. Bono's self serving attitude leaks out.

2. The 'disproportionate' quality of the Israeli response was obvious within the first month of the Military assault. Israeli leaders had already publicly committed to a genocidal war, with leading politicians in the cabinet declaring their intent and espousing their view of Palestinians in Gaza (and the West Bank) as 'human animals'. A registry of comments by leading Israeli legislators that are quite blatantly genocidal exists and can be verified. This is not a compilation of anti-Israel propaganda. It is the self incriminations of the Israeli political leadership supported by 90% of the Israeli population.

3. "I felt as nauseous as everyone" awe, didums... Bono remained silent, as we who protested immediately, aware of what was being done, were turning sleepless nights, nursing broken hearts, trying to calm our outraged minds, witnessing horrors on our media streams we did not know were possible. Our hopes dashed repeatedly as the West refused to act according to international law. And what we were experiencing was a luxury compared to what the people of Gaza and West Bank and the Palestinian diaspora were living through. Bono's  claim that the complexity of the situation barred him from public commentary is banal, effete and ludicrous. His claim to being emotional afflicted is gaslighting.

There was no sign of nausea as he accepted an award from Biden, who was participating in the Genocide.

4. There is no reliable evidence anywhere what Hamas military wing deliberately placed themselves behind, within or under civilian infrastructure. Bono was not reminding himself of anything other than his acceptance at face value of Israeli lies, as if they were the honest truth, so cross my heart... Yes, there were tunnels, no there is not one shred of evidence of them linking civilian or religious infrastructure to evade Israeli surveillance and its bunker busting bombs, or of using civilians as shields. 

I could go on. If I am wrong here, please point it out in the comments.

~

Here's a link to their full statements on their own website - readers can read. Make up your own minds. I'm clear on where I stand.

Here follows the rest of the original blog posting...




Marina Hyde, writing in the Guardian 'comment is free' web pages outlines a fantastic new philantrophic concept designed by elites themselves, the super-duper rich.

"Give to the rich to help the poor? An idea worthy of Bono."

Satire? No - a genius really has concocted a tax proposal to put our aid budget in the hands of the super-rich"

"On Tuesday night, 100 billionaires will gather at London's sumptuous Dorchester hotel, to watch Mr Ted Turner in conversation with Ms Carol Vorderman. Ms Joss Stone will sing, and some model or other will be in attendance. Can you guess the aim of this evening, which I trust you would cross continents to avoid in the infinitely unlikely event that you had been invited? No? Then allow me to assist. The aim is to make the government give tax breaks to the super-rich, in order to tempt them to give the same percentage of income to charity as the poorest 20% of people in this country already do.

Feel free to be taken unwell. 

Initially I assumed the Fortune Forum, for so it is named, was an elaborate living satire, designed to highlight practically everything that is wrong with contemporary life. Alas, The Fortune Forum is all too real. It was dreamt up by an heiress called Renu Mehta, as a kind of vaguely benevolent mini-Davos."

Marina continues to explore this fantastic fantasy escapist world ... I think she doesn't go far enough. Like George Monbiot, she holds back the full fury of common-sense empathy and outrage.

Nonetheless, 'It' has to be said. And both are saying it with some subtlety. 


The hubris of these immensely rich people, often from long lines of generations of wealth, has become, for the majority of people, an almost pathological issue, in that it is an attitude that informs many of the practices which we know are harming rather than assisting life, geared towards gathering and hoarding 'resources' and wealth, and often with great violence, and these super rich people know this, and they continue nonetheless, sitting on charitable boards, with all that is going on around the world, driven by their pride in their immense wealth and paranoia about their 'strategic interests'.

I have re-written the song 'streets with no name' as 'thieves with no shame', as a parody. I don't sing the song, as I find the melody irksome. I do sing 'I don't like geldof' and parody of 'I don't like Mondays'..... Goldloaf at least wrote some catchy tunes...

Both have done more harm than good.

http://www.corneilius.net/songpages/theives.htm Thieves With No Shame, a re-write of 'Streets With No Name' by Corneilius

The song -  'I don't like Geldof' by Corneilius

There's also background info on Geldof and Bono business dealings and investments, and an analysis of Label Red, sponsored by Bono, American Express and the large pharmaceutical companies who control aids medicine patents.

Article on Label Red - Bono and Africa, and the clever little scam. The information on AIDS assistance is horrifying.

I have sent this out before, it's not my own research, so blessings to all the various people and ways that info flows.

And it's worth repeating, it's worth all the effort to expose these fools to their own folly, and show them how they can help, if they seriously want to help, if it is to do with their experience of their common humanity, common soul, common nature and common sense!

We'll show them how by doing it ourselves, as many are already doing. Ask Jane Goddall....

Ask the lovley people, voluteers all, who facilitated The Spike community centre evicted by Southwark Council from their home in Peckham! A home the Council are selling to property developers, handing it over to the private sector for profit.... wealth is transferred, from poor to rich yet again, another drop in the constant flow.

One the one hand the rich have charidees, and on the other hand their ideology keeps shutting these grass roots initiatives down.....!
