FREEDOM IN THE ARTS:

"Art schools, galleries, theatres, dance and music stages, and film sets were once platforms that nurtured diverse ideas and contrasting perspectives. Today, many of these institutions actively discriminate against artists and audiences who do not subscribe to their views.

This repressive atmosphere has given rise to numerous boycotts and protests. Artists and art workers have become the subjects of cancellations, denunciations, and smear campaigns simply for holding legally protected views or expressing mainstream opinions, even outside of their work.

This has introduced a culture of self-censorship and groupthink which are fundamentally damaging to the arts. The demands for ideological compliance and the avoidance of controversy are impoverishing our institutions which were once spaces for free thought and open debate. This intolerant activism is now an existential threat to the arts.

Arts institutions and supporters of the arts must act to restore and protect the intellectual and creative freedom of artists. They must renew their commitment to serving the public and welcoming a diversity of opinions and beliefs. Art history celebrates artists who stood up to the popular consensus of their fields. To hold up a mirror to society again, artists today must be free to challenge ideas." Sign open letter below:

‘Greater Gaza’

"Behind the scenes, Israeli officials term their latest ethnic cleansing proposal a “Greater Gaza Plan”. Details first leaked in the Israeli media in 2014, although reports indicate that the origins date to 2007, when the Bush administration was apparently brought on board following Hamas’ election victory in Gaza a year earlier.
At the time, Israel’s secret plan relied on carrots more than sticks. The idea was to attach Gaza to Sinai, erasing the border between the two. Washington would help secure international funding for a free trade zone in Sinai.
With unemployment at over 60 per cent, massive overcrowding in the enclave and little clean water to drink, the expectation was that Palestinians in Gaza would gradually move the centre of their lives to Sinai, settling there or moving to distant Egyptian cities.
Following the leaks, Egyptian and Palestinian officials hurriedly denounced the plan as “fabricated”. However, there were plenty of clues that Egypt had begun facing pressure from 2007 onwards.
In response to the Israeli media leaks of 2014, an official close to former president Hosni Mubarak admitted that the screws had been turned on him in 2007 to agree to annex Gaza.
Five years later, according to the same source, Mohamed Morsi, who led a short-lived Muslim Brotherhood government, sent a delegation to Washington. There, the Americans proposed that “Egypt cede a third of the Sinai to Gaza in a two-stage process spanning four to five years”. Morsi too refused."

The Greater Gaza plan received another boost in 2018 when it was reportedly considered for inclusion in Donald Trump’s “deal of the century” Middle East “peace” plan. The hope was it would be financed by Gulf states as part of their normalisation with Israel.

That summer, Hamas even sent a delegation to Cairo to learn about the proposals."

The Gaza Resolution

Popular movements, parties, and unions across the world issue a pledge to stand for Palestinian liberation and sever ties of complicity with the State of Israel.

We, the undersigned:

(1) Grieve the lives claimed in the renewed cycle of violence, brutality, and destruction unleashed by the ongoing occupation of Palestine;

(2) Consider that the Zionist project is colonial in nature, built on stolen land, and sustained by the systematic exclusion, exploitation, and extermination of the Palestinian people;

(3) Recognize Zionism’s use as a weapon of Western imperialism and the Israeli state as an instrument to suppress sovereignty and unity in the Arab world — and advance violent reaction far beyond it;

(4) Consider that the Zionist regime has demonstrated its genocidal nature both in intent and in effect;

(5) Understand that the fascist violence against the Palestinian people today foreshadows the violence of Western imperialism towards all the world’s workers and oppressed peoples tomorrow because this is the historical tendency of capitalism in decay;

(6) Acknowledge that the Palestinian people face a national struggle, a class struggle, and a feminist struggle; affirm that the national struggle must be won for the other struggles to advance; and reject the weaponization of “colonial feminism” to obscure the primary contradictions of colonialism and imperialism and distract from the patriarchal and sexual violence inherent in them;

(7) Recognize that as a colonial project and imperial outpost, the Israeli state stands against the tendency of history to advance toward liberation, and that the liberation of the Palestinian people will therefore represent not only a severe blow to imperialism everywhere but also a progressive leap for all humanity;

(8) Reject the false equivalence of colonizer and colonized, recognize that the violence of the oppressed is a response to the original condition of their oppression, and uphold the Palestinian people’s inalienable right to resist, enshrined in UN Resolution 2625, as "the legitimacy of the struggle of peoples for independence, territorial integrity, national unity and liberation from colonial domination, apartheid and foreign occupation by all available means”;

(9) Denounce the disinformation being spread by the Israeli state and advanced by imperialist powers and their allies, which dehumanizes the Palestinian people, fuels the genocidal war against them, and whitewashes the crimes of their oppressors;

(10) Condemn the silence or equivocation of the non-governmental organizations and movements that weaponize human rights to transform our individual and collective entitlements to assistance, protection, dignity, and solidarity into an arsenal aimed at adversaries of the imperial order;

(11) Support the self-determination and sovereignty of front-line states and regional anti-systemic movements, whose democratic aspirations are constrained both by Israeli military aggression and US pressures to normalize relations with the Israeli state;

(12) Hear the urgent calls for solidarity from the Palestinian people, who demand, in the short-term:

an immediate end to the genocide,
the immediate delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza and the restoration of water, food, fuel and medical supplies to its people,
a military embargo against the Israeli state,
an investigation into the crimes against humanity perpetrated by representatives of the Israeli regime and their accomplices around the world,
the removal of Palestinian political parties from the US Treasury’s OFAC terrorism sanctions program,

the release of all political prisoners, and

determined political action at all levels to advance these goals;

(13) Recognize that these immediate aims remain insufficient and commit to supporting the long-standing aspirations of the Palestinian people by:

dismantling the mechanisms of corporate, institutional, and state complicity that sustain the Israeli apartheid state and its military machine, including through strikes and direct actions targeting the producers and suppliers of weapons, digital services, informational services, and related products;
upholding the truth and combatting the spread of lies and disinformation advanced by the Zionist regime and its imperialist backers, including by exposing their crimes against humanity and advancing popular education on the long struggle for Palestine’s national liberation;
advancing the anti-imperialist and anti-colonial struggle around the world, including by taking on Western militarism on all continents;

(14) Knowing that our collective struggles for liberation converge in Palestine, commit to responding to these calls for solidarity; consent for our actions to be measured against the seriousness of their aspirations; and vow to choke the arteries of complicity that sustain the Zionist oppression of the Palestinian people militarily, financially, technologically, and culturally.

- What happened?
- We were asleep, then they bombed us.

Children of #Gaza are going through unbearable nights.

Covid & Gaza proved "left" and "right" are meaningless descriptions of political acumen. It goes psyop to psyop, some who resisted the Covid psyop fell straight into the Israel "retaliation" psyop. There is only resistance or adherence to a set of psyops, few resist them all..

A disproportionate response is the signature of a psyop. It is the reason why psyops are carried out. Whenever you see a disproportionate response anywhere in the world, by a state actor or global organisation, & it's backed by both the US & UK governments, you know it's a psyop.

More anti-vaxx propaganda by CNN who are clearly anti-science..oh wait!

This means we will have the lowest number of respiratory infection deaths possible this year.. well done for waking people up to the longest scam in the history of medicine.

Unfortunately we are still looking at one of the highest rates of heart attack deaths due to C19 jab myocarditis though.

We are not "sleepwalking" into World War Three, we are well awake and can see every single step and manipulation planned by the globalists to lead us there.

Leaked: Israeli plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza

'The plan advocates the forced transfer of the population of the Gaza Strip to Sinai permanently, and calls for the international community to be leveraged to assist the move':

"Israeli culture magazine Mekovit published on 28 October a leaked document issued by Israel’s Ministry of Intelligence recommending the occupation of Gaza and total transfer of its 2.3 million inhabitants to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
The document, issued on 13 October, identifies a plan to transfer all residents of the Gaza Strip to North Sinai as the preferred option among three alternatives regarding the future of the Palestinians in Gaza at the end of the current war between Israel and the Hamas-led Palestinian resistance.
The document recommends that Israel evacuate the Gazan population to Sinai during the war, establish tent cities and new cities in northern Sinai to accommodate the deported population, and then create a closed security zone stretching several kilometers inside Egypt. The deported Palestinians would not be allowed to return to any areas near the Israeli border."

"The Nakba, also known as the Palestinian Catastrophe was the 1948 displacement of a majority of the Palestinian Arabs. The term is used to describe both the events of 1948, as well as the ongoing occupation of the Palestinian territories and persecution and displacement of Palestinians throughout the region."

A 1994 interview with Itamar Ben-Gvir, now Israeli occupation's Minister of National Security, shows the hawkish Israeli politician publicly calling for murder and ethnic cleansing of the native Palestinian Arab population.

Ben-Gvir also describes Baruch Goldstein, an Israeli-American religious extremist who perpetrated the 1994 massacre in Hebron's Ibrahimi Mosque, as a 'great man'.
