Unite’s response to Rigby death

NOVANEWS Unite statement fails to point out the racism spread by imperialism's wars or the connection between imperialist war crimes abroad and attacks such as the one on Lee Rigby at home. In the course of a public statement commenting on the death of British soldier Lee Rigby, issued by the Greenwich branch of Unite with the stated intention of promoting “unity in the fight against racism, division and terror”, the union includes the following intriguing health warning: “We … recognise that there will be many other groups and organisations who will wish to seek to organise against the forces of racism and division. While welcome, there will be those who may not have roots in the area. “Our request as a large, representative trade union that organises working people in this area is that ...

Editorial: The killing of Lee Rigby

NOVANEWS Proletarian issue 54 (June 2013) What is needed is a united working-class struggle against imperialism. The killing of the young soldier Lee Rigby in Woolwich, south-east London, on 22 May has exposed once again one of the big lies of contemporary bourgeois politics – namely, that imperialism’s bestial wars of aggression (be they in Iraq, Afghanistan, Mali or wherever) are somehow necessary to keep us ‘safe from terrorism’ here in Britain.Nothing could be further from the truth. Indeed, it is almost a surreal exercise in doublespeak to hear the weasel words that are currently being delivered up for public consumption by the likes of David Cameron and Boris Johnson today, just as they were by the likes of Tony Blair before them, and to contrast th...

Pope Francis heads to less Catholic, more restive Brazil

NOVANEWS ed note–It begins… As we predicted here months ago, immediately after the election of Bergoglio as Pope and the mountain of praise he received from powerful Jewish groups, he and his affiliation with Catholics in South America will be used to help usher in the Latin American Spring meant to replace the leadership of countries such as Venezuela, Argentina, Ecuador, Bolivia and others who have fallen out of the US/Israeli sphere of influence and who are becoming cozy with Iran, China and Russia. The fact that the first country he is visiting is the very same country that has joined the BRICS economic group challenging Jewish finance and the fact that it is the first country in LA to be racked with western funded/driven uprisings can only mean that Bergoglio–like John Paul II in he...

The Mystery of TWA 800

NOVANEWS by Philip Giraldi It is sometimes easy to forget that the principal function of government, like any other organism, is to protect itself. In a perfect world a regime that has erred egregiously would admit to its mistake, apologize to the public, and make corrections to prevent any recurrence. By that measure, the United States should have long since declared the Iraq War to be a disaster of the first magnitude and stated its intention to never again engage in intervention and nation building anywhere at any time unless a genuine vital interest is actually threatened. Alas, a number of distinguished Republican Senators continue to insist that Washington brought something called democracy to Baghdad and the current incumbent in the White House appears unable to resist the urge t...

Egyptian Rabbi Muhammad Zoghbi Calls on Allah to Annihilate Jews and Shiites in a Friday Sermon

This Rabbi (actually paid actor) is hired to cause conflicts among Muslims in the service of imperialism and zionism. As a Sunni Muslim, I don't believe in his religion, his god or his messenger. He is talking to a group of mentally and intellectually retarded people. Had he addressed ordinary Muslims, they would spit in his face. They will kick him from the mosque. Sunni and Shiites are Muslims, are brothers and both belong to one Muslim Nation. Ali Baghdadi (Arab Journal) Note: the sob is not Egyptian. He is either Syrian, Jordanian, Palestinian or Lebanese.

CYBER-SNOOPING ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE INFORMATION WAR

NOVANEWS Posted by jimcraven10 Cyber-snooping Only One Side of the Information War Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email Share on print Share on gmail Share on stumbleupon Share on favorites More Sharing Services Print Revelations of the U.S. National Security Agency’s large-scale interception of Internet and telephone connections (PRISM) should not have come as any surprise. Estimates of NSA’s secret budget of at least $10 billion should have told us long ago it was involved in some sophisticated spying activities. We knew some time ago about ECHELON — the global network linking the Anglo-Saxon nations in a decoding operation aimed at the secret diplomatic and other communications of other nations, including friends. That has been going on for more than 40 years now and many...

The Crime of Alleviating Poverty: A Local Community Currency Battles the Central Bank of Kenya

NOVANEWS By Ellen Brown Global Research Former Peace Corps volunteer Will Ruddick and several residents of Bangladesh, Kenya, face a potential seven years in prison after developing a cost-effective way to alleviate poverty in Africa’s poorest slums. Their solution: a complementary currency issued and backed by the local community. The Central Bank of Kenya has now initiated charges of forgery. Complementary currencies can help eradicate poverty. Proving that may be difficult in complex economies, due to the high number of factors influencing outcomes. But in an African slum with little of the national currency available, supplying residents with an alternative currency has a positive effect that is obvious, immediate and incontrovertible. This was demonstrated when Will Ruddick, an Ame...

My friend Shelby

NOVANEWS This came to me from my friend and fellow DYR member Shelby Tucker. Shelby is an American living in the UK, a writer of books that always seem to feature long journeys but also moral truths as well. He appears to be in close touch with old Andover and Yale classmates with whom he seems to be in constant dialogue - usually involving him speaking the truth and them having trouble seeing it. Here he is in action: Dear Stephan I, too, regret the missed opportunity for catching up on each other’s news over the past sixty years and for meeting Jean at the reunion. Reunions are much too short; even a week would have been too little. I hope you and Jean will redress that by visiting us when you are next in England, details below. I’m afraid I can’t remember sending you or anyone a len...

Gentlemen, please take a few minutes and have a look at this video…

NOVANEWS Along with some others, I recently received this message. It comes from someone who identifies himself as an 'ex-Jew' and was written partially in response to my posting the work of David Duke. It prompted quite a flurry among a small circle of us. Do read it, watch the video and read the comment from Gilad Atzmon that follows. It's something to think about. Gentlemen- Please take a few minutes and have a look at this video. I am sending to Gilad, Henry, Paul, and Dan. We have all connected because we have each had our own individual evolutions away from Zionism- Dan's as a non-Jew no less than the three of us ex-Jews, Henry, Gilad and myself, and no less than Paul who continues to call himself a Jew. Non-Jewish Americans are just as inundated with the Zionist lie as Jews a...
