In 2020, Dutch lawyer Arno Van Kessel realized that Covid-19 was being used by governments to exercise malign influence on populations and began vocally opposing both the Dutch government's pandemic response measures and the subsequent Covid-19 'vaccines'.

The Israel President cannot be welcomed in Australia. The government he represents has been found by the International Court of Justice to have breached international law: the Netanyahu regime has committed a range of international crimes against humanity including war crimes, apartheid, illegal occupation and ethnic cleansing.

A key reason why China has, for decades, had the highest annual increases in per-capita GDP PPP (standard of living as experienced by the country’s population — as opposed to pure per-capita GDP, which reflects ONLY the investors) is the Chinese Communist Party’s relentless war against corruption.

Pain and dying. It’s what humans do. We endure the pain of birth through a passage that is too narrow both for child and mother. In China, nearly 37 per cent of birth are done through Caesarean sections. We also use pain killers. Could the natural birthing limit the size of our brain? Much of what we do in life is designed to alleviate pain and achieve a certain level of contentment, though we are often told “no pain, no gain”. This of course is a contentious concept. Can we achieve a better way of thinking? We vie to be relatively happy....

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has given a positive assessment of a conversation he had with US envoys on how to end the Russia-Ukraine war.

Zelensky said Thursday's call with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, which lasted nearly an hour, had yielded "new ideas in terms of formats, meetings, and... timing on how to bring a real peace closer". He added later that he would hold another meeting with President Donald Trump "in the near future".

Australian law enforcement and intelligence agencies are to be reviewed, in the Albanese government’s latest response in the wake of the Bondi tragedy. 

But Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is still resisting calls for a national royal commission. 

Albanese said in a statement after a meeting of cabinet’s national security committee that the review would be done by the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet. It will be led by Dennis Richardson, a former secretary of the defence and foreign affairs departments, as well as a former head of ASIO. 

There have been questions about the adequacy of ASIO’s performance. It checked out Naveed Akram – the younger of the father and son gunmen – in 2019, because of his radical contacts, but did not later keep tabs on him. 

While browsing through the magazine section at Barnes and Noble recently, for fun, I picked up the September issue of the John Birch Society’s publication The New American.

Named after an OSS veteran who was killed by the communists during the Chinese Civil War, the John Birch Society has a history going back to the 1950s of warning about alleged communist infiltration of the U.S. government and society and railing against the UN.[1]

John Birch Society Tries to Bring Back Cold War Culture

Across the United States, Democrats and Republicans are demanding that their leaders come clean with the Epstein files and the truth finally be told. What they are getting instead is a massive redaction campaign.

Not since 1998 with the Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky show trial has the American public been so incensed by a sex scandal like the one the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein personally directed for many years.

The American people will never get closure on the Epstein files

The Democrats and Republicans initially worked together to release the files, until ‘politics as usual’ inevitably spoiled everything

Ukraine is a “viper’s den” rife with corruption, Hunter Biden, the son of former US President Joe Biden, has said, as he reflected on his time as a board member of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma.

Hunter Biden was hired by Burisma in 2014 when his father served as vice president in the Obama administration, leaving the post in 2019. He reportedly earned approximately $1 million annually, with critics pointing out that he lacked any experience in the energy sector and was effectively “cashing in”on his father’s prominent position.

In an interview on The Shawn Ryan Show aired on Monday, Hunter expressed regret about his involvement in Ukraine’s affairs. “It was a mistake because I was very, very naive about what a viper’s den Ukraine is“.

While western publics are being demonised as racists, the technology and strategies used today against Palestinians will become the walls of tomorrow’s prisons for us all

Western establishments’ fear of the phrase “Globalise the intifada” has little to do with any danger supposedly posed to Jewish populations from its use.

Western elites fear a ‘globalised intifada’ because they are its targets, not Jews

BY JONATHAN COOK

The threat is posed by the slogan’s central idea, not by some specific target.

“Globalise the intifada!” is the modern equivalent of “Power to the people!” – a slogan long used by anti-colonial movements, by revolutionary socialist parties, by the ANC in its fight against South African apartheid, and by the Black Panthers in their struggle against white supremacy in the US.

A passage from Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale has been haunting me: “That was when they suspended the Constitution. They said it would be temporary. There wasn’t even any rioting in the streets. People stayed home at night, watching television, looking for some direction. There wasn’t even an enemy you could put your finger on.” 

How the West Unpersons Its Critics:

Or about the Kafkaesque Europe

BY BILJANA VANKOVSKA

There’s no doubt that 2025 has been one of the most politically chaotic years of the 21st century.

Amid the domestic and geopolitical mayhem unleashed by Donald Trump’s return to the White House, powerful interests were busy enacting a radical anti-democratic agenda that has already changed our world and will continue shaping it for years to come.

How MAGA Changed the World in 2025, and What Comes Next
Across the U.S., UK, Europe, and Canada, Donald Trump and his allies worked tirelessly to supercharge climate denial, boost fossil fuels, and foment political chaos.
