Alternative media the way forward...

Alternative media the way forward... Alternative media in today's world is essential if you seek to reach the masses, through social media networks we can reach people on mass at the click of a button, this was unimaginable a decade ago. The power we have to reach so many people gives us a stage on which we can highlight causes or peoples struggles around the world, all the while connecting with like minded people. Social media is essential for informing and educating the masses on any given topic, at one stage people had to go out and scream over a microphone to reach only a percentage of those that can be reached over social media. It is up to us in the alternative media with the reach we have to continue highlighting injustices, human rights abuses, peoples struggles and humanity's achievements and breakthroughs across the globe, all of this adds to the collective awakening we are seeing among or peoples across all nations on Earth. The times of things being hidden in the dark from us and kept there at the expense of humanity's betterment is coming to an end, because of this power to reach the masses things can no longer just be swept under the carpet, tho this does not mean it does not continue and things do continue to be hidden from us but what i am saying is as we go on it will become more and more difficult for those who wish to hide things from us to do so while we the people continue to spread the information. They can't stop us all!

The Continuation Of Military Use By U.S. Armed Forces And CIA Needs To Be Brought To An End In Ireland

Some may not already know this but for well over a decade armed forces of the U.S. have been using Shannon Airport as a stop off point before continuing on to their bastions in Europe and the Middle East, Indeed Ireland itself is becoming one of these bastions, well over 2 million U.S. troops have passed through Ireland to fight illegal wars and conflicts around the world. Not only is Shannon being used as a staging post for the U.S. armed forces but is also being used for operations associated with the CIA and its 'extraordinary rendition program' The use of Shannon Airport by U.S. forces means Ireland is complicit and has been complicit in these conflicts which has seen millions of innocent men women and children perish, from Iraq to Afghanistan to Libya, this list is endless. This is a stain on the Irish nation and it needs to be addressed, of course we have had many people who have stood up and have even went to jail trying to highlight this most well known being 79 year old peace activist Margaretta D'Arcy, in which during her trial she tried to make a citizens arrest of the judge for collaborating in war crimes. D'Arcy was also convicted in 2012 for peacefully opposing the use of Shannon airport by U.S. military by blocking two flights from landing at Shannon. At the time of the protest, Galway Alliance Against War issued the following statement. Over the past twelve years consecutive Irish governments have colluded in Washington’s campaign of wars from Afghanistan to Yemen, in which up to 2 million people have perished. By allowing the US military to use Irish airspace and Shannon airport to wage these wars we have become a willing accessory to mass murder. We have blood on our hands…we feel we have no alternative but to block the runway at Shannon to highlight Irish involvement in this carnage. Not only is the complicity of Ireland in these wars immoral it is in violation of aviation, human rights and international law. In a Booklet 'Shannon Airport, War and Renditions' which was jointly published by Shannonwatch, The Peace And Neutrality Alliance(PANA) and The Irish Anti-War Movement(IAWM) highlights these violations... The booklet outlines four key areas in which the Irish authorities are deemed to be inefficient: The application of aviation law in relation to the transportation of munitions of war and other explosive substances Suspected breaches of international and European human rights law, as well as domestic Irish law, in relation to known and suspected involvement in rendition Possible breaches of international humanitarian law Policy and practice relating to the concept of Irish neutrality In 2011 alone a total 1,142 'Civilian Planes' with munitions on board landed at Shannon airport this was revelad in answer to a question posed by Sinn Fein TD Padraig Mac Lochlainn Shannonwatch, the organization which monitors foreign military use of Shannon airport and campaigns against it, said the figures “make a mockery of the notion of Irish neutrality”. On its website, a spokesperson is quoted as saying: “Like Kuwait and Kyrgyzstan, Ireland and Shannon have now become staging posts for US invasions and occupation. “The figures make a mockery of the notion of Irish neutrality, and show that successive governments have relinquished all interest in maintaining an independent Irish foreign policy.” John Lannon, the booklet’s author, says the use of Shannon Airport has contributed to suffering and human rights abuse for over a decade: “The consistent disregard for national and international laws has meant that Shannon has been directly involved in the suffering and death of innocent people – from men tortured in Guantanamo Bay, to children in Afghanistan who are injured or orphaned by airstrikes and roadside bombs.” These operations being carried out are not sanctioned by the Irish people but of a few who are in the back pockets of the U.S. and E.U. whatever the puppet masters say goes, but there is only so far you can push a people before they begin to rise and this is what we may very well be seeing in Ireland today. End Ireland's Complicity In These Crimes Against Humanity Now Ireland Says NO!

The People Are Rising It's About Time The Political Elite Listen...

Back in 2012 spokeswoman for Environment minister Phil Hogan confirmed that over 300,000 households would have fixed water charges, she continued saying up to 90% of households, which can be metered, will be metered by the end of 2014 at a cost of 500m Euros, Of tax payers money. Along with the huge price tag for the installation of these meters Taoiseach Enda Kenny revealed that the expected annual bill for water would be around 240 Euros, with a standing charge of 50 Euros. People have already been paying for these water taxes. We are now seeing nation wide movements of the people against the installation of the water meters along with the charges forced upon them, with daily protests and demonstrations from Cork to Dundalk, along with the sometimes heavy handed tactics of the Garda Siochana and even the workers themselves striking out at protestors. It's encouraging to see that grass roots movements are growing faster than ever before in opposition to Austerity, Bank Bailouts, the wholesale of our nations national resources, it's crucial that people show their anger towards the status quo, turning a blind eye is not an option anymore... The installations have not been going as planned it would seem as workers struggle to install anywhere, everywhere Irish water go the Irish people will be found, in opposition, those in power don't care one bit about the people, those in power see themselves as accountable to no one, this is what will come to bite them as the anger simmers it will get to the point the people will say enough is enough and get rid of these traitors. The people see this charge for a basic human right as a scandal and rightfully so. Tomorrow 11/10/2014 people will gather in Dublin from all over Ireland in what will be one of the largest national demonstrations in decades in opposition to the immoral and unfair taxation of water, if you can get there you should it's time to fight back as a nation...

The rise of a monster from the rubble of war. IS pretext for war in Syria...

People ask where did this group IS come from? When did they spring up? Well for now i can't exactly point to when or where exactly but what i do know IS have grown from the rubble of past invasions occupations and continued support of proxy groups in the region. From the supporting of Mujahid groups in the 80's by the who were fighting against a Soviet occupation of the country, to the backing of so called rebels in Libya who fought against the Gaddafi regime. The continued injection of weapons and support of these groups has evolved to the point in which we find ourselves now, with the likes of IS and Al Qieda affiliated groups coming out on top as the biggest opposition groups in the region, who in recent times have also reportedly joined forces against the anti IS coalition. The strikes have effectively amalgamated these groups. The support of proxies in the middle east has gotten to a point where the monster has become uncontrollable, but not useless! The US back in 2013 were preparing for imminent strikes on Syria after it was alleged that the Syrian regime had used Nuclear weapons on the 21st of August 2013, but as we now know this could not have been further from the truth and was clearly being pushed for a pretext to oust the leadership in Damascus. Propaganda was on overdrive and very nearly pushed us into war, the BBC one of the main perpetrators of this propaganda was caught in the act editing and staging videos that they say was evidence of use of chemical weapons by the regime. See our article 'Media wars, deceptions and lies' Fast forward a year and a half and we have a new pretext that of which being the very same extremist groups the US and allies helped equip and fund for years, we will explain how we have come to this conclusion that the US and allies were indeed behind the creation of IS in a second. Just today 03/10/2014 Joe Biden admitted the U.S allies were the biggest problem in Syria supporting the extremist groups but he stopped short of admitting the U.S. also had a big hand to play in the rise of the extremist groups. For me the most visible signs of this support and funding came when Libya became just another flash point on the world stage, from the outset we had calls echoing from the same camps that called for the unjust invasion of Iraq, calls to strike to support to fund and to arm groups which would fight 'Dictator Gaddafi', and so they did, MI6 and the CIA were training and gun running from the outset, all in preparation for regime change. The covert and overt support for such groups along with air strikes by NATO forces give the 'Rebels' the upper hand, the 'rebels' hoped their advance would spark an uprising in the capital, but the actual number of citizens who chose to join premature democratic celebrations on Green Square was considerably moderate in comparison with the thousands who preferred to stand by the country’s leader in the governmental district of Bab al-Aziziya armed with the handguns distributed among the locals earlier. Without a doubt the intelligence services of certain countries including Israels Mossad had a major hand in the rise of these groups, orchestrating and co-ordinating attacks which led to the subsequent fall of the Libyan Regime. The US and its allies could not be seen as waging a ground war in Libya so Qatar and UAE were only more than willing to help out, the very same establishments that are now supporting extremist groups inside Syria against the Syrian Regime. The fall of the Libyan regime created a platform in which extremist groups like IS and Al Qieda could launch attacks as well as re group and re organize, this is exactly what happened leading up to the 'Revolution' inside Syria, which was shown only to have been supported by a small amount of people in the country. But at the beginning just like in Libya the mass media here in the West sold it to the public as a popular uprising, but as we said from the start this was just another engineered plot for regime change in Syria. In fact the only real support came and still comes from outside players. At the time U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates and U.S. military officer, Admiral Mike Mullen acknowledged there was only limited U.S. intelligence on the rebels who might eventually take control of the oil-producing country. These admissions that they knew very little about who they were actually funding and supporting just shows us exactly how unsure the establishments were when it came to arming and training groups to fight in these countries. These grievances have been aired before by many other officials across the board but of course their voices are drowned out by the usual War Hawks with help of the Propaganda machines working over time. Over the last few years accounts from fighters themselves have been documented that they had personally been trained by U.S. military advisers in Jordan and elsewhere within the region, the numbers of which are debated. Move forward a year or 2 and the so called revolution in Syria starts to take off as more and more outside players joined the fight, fighters from all over the world, groups who had once fought against the Libyan regime were now fighting against the Syrian regime, weaponry and equipment used in the Libya conflict had been brought in to Syria and so began a new flash point which would set the stage for what we are now seeing with the rise of the likes of IS. As veteran fighters inside Libya began to move towards Syria plans were underway to arm and train even more fighters in Syria to face the Assad regime, time and time again Russia and China vetoed resolutions that sought to arm rebel opposition sighting that some of these very same groups were involved in terror activity's in Syria. Neither Washington nor the Arab League, which commissioned an Observer Mission to Syria in the first place, have accepted the interim report presented by the AL Mission. Why? Because the Mission --integrated by independent observers from Arab League countries- provides a balanced and objective assessment of what is happening on the ground inside Syria. It does not serve as a mouthpiece for Washington and the governments of Arab states. It points to the existence of an "Armed Entity"; it acknowledges that "armed opposition groups" including the Syria Free Army are involved in criminal and terrorist acts. "In some zones, this armed entity reacted by attacking Syrian security forces and citizens, causing the Government to respond with further violence. In the end, innocent citizens pay the price for those actions with life and limb. "In Homs, Idlib and Hama, the Observer Mission witnessed acts of violence being committed against Government forces and civilians that resulted in several deaths and injuries. Examples of those acts include the bombing of a civilian bus, killing eight persons and injuring others, including women and children, and the bombing of a train carrying diesel oil. In another incident in Homs, a police bus was blown up, killing two police officers. A fuel pipeline and some small bridges were also bombed. " "Such incidents include the bombing of buildings, trains carrying fuel, vehicles carrying diesel oil and explosions targeting the police, members of the media and fuel pipelines. Some of those attacks have been carried out by the Free Syrian Army and some by other armed opposition groups." When Obama and Co mention supporting 'Moderate' fighters they are inadvertently arming such groups as IS, Biden himself said there was no middle ground when it came to these fighters, along with the continued propaganda war being waged by IS and the MSM it is a cocktail for disaster, or is it? Well if your ultimate outcome was regime change in the first place then it does not look so illogical but the fact the MSM aren't reporting it as such does not mean it is not so... just watch as targets move from IS to the SAA and the regime. "NATO is already clandestinely engaged in the Syrian conflict, with Turkey taking the lead as U.S. proxy. Ankara’s foreign minister, Ahmet Davitoglu, has openly admitted that his country is prepared to invade as soon as there is agreement among the Western allies to do so. The intervention would be based on humanitarian principles, to defend the civilian population based on the “responsibility to protect” doctrine that was invoked to justify Libya. Turkish sources suggest that intervention would start with creation of a buffer zone along the Turkish-Syrian border and then be expanded. Aleppo, Syria’s largest and most cosmopolitan city, would be the crown jewel targeted by liberation forces. I will refer back to the leaked call between Foreign Minister Ahmet Davudoğlu Head of Turkish Intelligence MIT Hakan Fidan Undersecretary of Foreign Ministry Feridun Sinirlioğlu General Yaşar Güler, this call shines a light on the murky behind the scenes preparations and intentions for an invasion of Syria and ultimately regime change. Now you see that the rise to prominence of these groups has been down to direct interference and incitement from Western and Arab states, with the back up of NATO another long arm of the war machine. It may be confusing so I'll put it like this, NATO/US/Israel/Saudi and ISIL are indeed 2 sides of the same coin. Evidence is building by the day proving all what we have been saying to be true. Stop supporting terror in the Middle East! End the Wars!
