World Affairs for 2015 NOVEMBER II

20th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“President Putin has announced that he has shared intelligence with the other G20 member states”

“This revealed that 40 countries help finance IS’s activities”

“This information, as yet not given to the media, shows that among the 40 countries some of them are G20 members”

“IS makes an estimated $50m a month from selling crude oil captured in oilfields in Iraq and Syria”

“This has been confirmed by US and Iraqi intelligence”

“As a result of this declared information, the US has now launched its first strike against an IS oil convoy”

“Previously the US have refused to strike over 1,000 IS controlled tanker trucks out of what they said was a concern for civilians”

“IS has been smuggling this crude oil that it has been producing in Syria”

“Recently 116 trucks have now been destroyed near Deir al-Zour, an area in the eastern section of Syria, which is controlled by IS”

“Since the Paris bombing, the US has had to change its tactics and it seems they are being forced closer to the Russian position”

“President Putin has stressed that more effective measures to deal with this terrorist group are needed”

“It is unthinkable that they are being funded in this way to keep them going”

“There needs to be a concerted effort by the US, which is ultimately responsible for the forming of this group in the first place”

“Now they shy away from their responsibilities, like they did over the Iraq War”

“This concerted effort must be also made by Europe, Saudi Arabia and Turkey and with Iran’s support”

“It is an absolute disgrace that 40 nations are involved in the funding of this terrorist machine”

“All this is now being relayed to the G20 summit”

“It is high time that proper moral action was taken”

“These countries and individuals financing IS must be exposed for their support of this killing machine”

19th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“We continue to watch the media unleash its violence on our screens and where human rights have no part in its delivery”

“The propaganda used to serve this misguided war in Syria is there to serve only the military and their industries”

“There has been an entire devaluation of all human lives, which count almost today as nothing – people are expendable”

“The media is directed by Western Governments in mobilising public opinion for the advancement of the war efforts in Syria”

“There is no expression of empathy with the Russian plane victims or the Arab victims who suffer daily”

“There has been a practice on ‘the war on terror’, which has destroyed two countries, Afghanistan and especially Iraq”

“Iraq was systematically dismantled by US and UK forces”

“It was Iraq, which once enjoyed the best health and education systems in the Arab world”

“The war in Afghanistan against the Taliban is still ongoing and nothing has been resolved, the people there still suffer continuously”

“At the end of all this chaos and mayhem are interests”

“The French interests are that they are the main beneficiary to the arms trade boosted by the western wars in the Middle East”

“This is together with their own intervention in Mali”

“The gunmen in the Paris massacre show that most of them are drawn from the French youths from disenfranchised neighbourhoods”

“These vulnerable youths are likely candidates to the IS recruitment methods as they feed on their despair and anger”

“The French Government was not interested in the repeated protests by their disenfranchised people on their streets”

“This occurred between 2005 and 2014”

“These French people were betrayed by the French slogan of liberty, equality and fraternity. It was not there for them!”

“Instead France continues to bomb the Syrian town of al-Raqqa, where the Syrian people are besieged by IS & French fighter jets from the sky”

“This clash of savagery and war continues losing the freedom for Mankind in both the West and the East alike”

“All are trampling on human rights, as they continue to rain down death and destruction”

“When will sanity reign? Who has the guts to stand up and say this is no longer acceptable”

“As in the US when the Vietnam War was raging it was the American people that finally said enough is enough”

“There were marches and rallies which demonstrated that the war had to end”

“It must be the people who decide that these wars can no longer continue and to vote with their feet and with their voices”

“This is not about liberty”

“It is about decency and justice for all human beings that they have a right to live in peace without military interests”

18th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“The repercussions of Russian’s bombed plane are showing up President Sisi’s lack of leadership and ability to deal with these crises”

“World powers have suspended flights to Sharm el Sheikh and tourists have been fleeing Egypt in their droves”

“At this time Egypt is involved in parliamentary elections, which are supposed to bring Egypt into a democracy”

“But instead voters are turning away from voting as is borne out by public cynicism as to how Sisi is governing”

“Showing up that Presidents Sisi’s Government is becoming increasingly isolated”

“Russia’s intelligence services has concluded that the Russian plane was brought down by deliberate terrorist intervention”

“This will have major consequences for Sisi’s regime and pressure is brought to bear on him and his Government”

“Egypt so far has not yet accepted the Russian findings for fear of the consequences of his handling of terrorists in the Sinai desert”

“This will hurt the Egyptian regime and discredit President Sisi’s Government”

“Egypt has been without a Parliament since 2012, when President Morsi was ousted out by a military coup”

“In the absence of a Parliament, President Sisi has been running the country with an iron fist”

“Sisi has revamped the Parliamentary Electoral District Law”

“He has divided the country into individual candidates and changed the electoral list of districts”

“This does not allow for any real competition or opposition to the status quo, so the people are not interested in voting”

“To date there has only been 26% voter turnout!”

“Egypt’s civil rights and press freedoms have been severely curtailed and there is no room for an opposition voice”

“Meanwhile tourist’s bookings in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh are down by 80% of reservations already cancelled”

“The remarkable apathy of Egyptian voters is clearly reflected in the low turnout in the Parliamentary Elections”

“It shows something is definitely wrong. The Egyptian people are effectively giving a silent protest to the present regime”

“Until democracy comes into effect and real change for the people is demonstrated then they will continue to suffer immensely”

“President Sisi will lose credibility, which is already happening and his support will wane from his supporters”

“Concessions will have to be met if he is to continue in power and be supported with huge financial incentives”

“They go to him and the military and not to the people as a whole”

“The Egyptian people are speaking again, but will Sisi listen?”

17th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“President Putin is now positioning himself to be seen as a valuable partner with his policies of bombing IS”

“A 100 years ago, Russia was already a great power in Europe and was poised to become one in the Middle East”

“Putin is now driving forwards to become recognised as a vital link in the collaboration of western powers to rid this world of IS”

“Russia suffered an air catastrophe over Sinai caused by a terrorist bomb, so there is now a greater impetus for retaliation from Moscow”

“Will Russia be confirmed as a power in the Middle East, as happened in World War I?”

“Or will it be an ill-judged assault as it was in Afghanistan?”

“Putin will step up his attacks on Syria, which will serve to cover up his less successful intervention in the Ukraine”

“President Putin needs to appear strong and decisive and with western cooperation a deal can be forged to defeat IS on many fronts”

“IS will in time become isolated and fragmented”

“They have no experience of governing their caliphate, only destroying that which does not agree with them”

“Those towns and cities they already control are practically free of people”

“IS demand their rights over these people, but correct governing is not in their experience and so they will ultimately fail”

“It is now very important that all powers must put aside their differences and find a common ground”

“This is to rid Syria and the Middle East of this murderous Ismaili cult”

“President Putin would like to become a partner of powers to show off his strength and intelligence”

“Remember it is only 19 months ago that he was expelled from the G8 club of rich countries for his annexation of Crimea”

“Due to the multiple mishaps by the US in the Middle East, Putin could well be on the way of becoming a viable western partner once again!”

16th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“A person posted the following story on Facebook after the news of the Paris attacks”

“An IS member stopped a car with a Christian couple in it. The IS member asked “Are you Muslim?” Christian man, “Yes, I’m Muslim”

“IS member, “If you are Muslim, recite a verse from the Quran?” Christian man recites a verse from the Bible. IS member, “Okay, you can go”

“Later the Christian man’s wife says “Why did you tell him you were a Muslim?  If he knew you were lying he would have killed us both!”

“Don’t worry”, answered the husband, “If he knew the Quran they wouldn’t kill people”

“This story is beside the point, as it’s IS’s brutality against its own fellow Muslims that poses the greatest threat”

“The reality to be noted is that it is only a minority of Muslims who actively support or participate in terrorism”

“Large numbers of Muslims harbour all sorts of chauvinistic attitudes towards other sects, religions, races, ethnicities and nationalities”

“We must look at today’s history, whereby American Jews have for half a century supported the world’s brutal and longest occupation”

“This has occurred year on year in the name of their own religion”

“In Hindu India, Muslims have been subjected to horrific massacres and systemic discrimination”

“Buddhism purports to be a religion of peace”

“It falls apart the moment we go into Myanmar and see the genocide of the country’s Rohingya Muslim minority”

“In Christianity, the crimes committed in the name of Jesus were vast and heinous on Mankind”

“Religion practiced by billions of people across the world remains bad on humanity”

“A published study shows the effects of religion on children, who become more selfish and mean”

“As they get older and have power to affect the world they get worse”

“Besides religion, many hundreds of millions of people have been sacrificed in the name of the fatherland or the nation”

“These numbers are too great to calculate”

“It was over 150 million people, who were murdered or starved to death”

“Thanks to the nationalistic and economic fantasies of just three men, Hitler, Stalin and Mao!”

“Returning to the present day, the US, UK and France wage war against terror”

“At the same time they cosy up to some of the most barbaric regimes on this earth”

“France’s 20th Century philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre condemned France’s brutal rule in Algeria”

“He stated that first there was our violence and soon they would make it their own and the same violence would be thrown back on them!”

“IS wages war against all faiths, this strategy was not inspired by the Quran, but by George W Bush after 9/11”

“Bush stated, “You’re either with us or against us?”

“One can blame Islam for the carnage done in its name, but let’s be honest about our own ideals and ideologies”

“They have contributed to the death and destruction we see piling up around us”

“Wise men are needed urgently to perform a practice of justice, mercy and compassion that has always been there within Mankind”

“Otherwise if left undone, there will be nothing and nobody left to fight for!”

15th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“The workings of the terrorist mind are to demolish all that they see as wrong in their lives”

“They have no compassion, no thought, only destruction and pain inflicted on the many in their criterion”

“To try and pacify their minds, even to re-educate them, is virtually impossible”

“The pain and hatred they feel is the fire within that keeps them living for out and out revenge”

“Nothing must be allowed to stop their quest or even at times delay what they feel is their rite of passage”

“Their minds are always clear thinking, everything assembled to create maximum effect and destruction”

“Life continues to bate them and their cause for revenge and sacrifice”

“To say that they are not human is to understand the impossible, almost unrelenting anger and hatred that they feel”

“They feel justified to expel it in ways of violence that are so incomprehensible to the quiet mind”

“The terrorist do not know peace of mind”

“They only know isolation and a broken heart that will not mend and must be satisfied by continuous revenge”

“That is why they do not fear death”

“Their pain drives them on and it is only by dying that they can finally be at peace, their objective having already been done”

“Until we as a society, a human race, start to understand these minds and bring about a reversal…”

“…of what we have done to cause these fractured beings, we cannot hope to ever have lasting peace in this world”

“The Governments in this world have invaded the Middle East for their own objectives, their own agendas”

“They thought nothing of the consequences of what they did”

“President Bush, together with Tony Blair, invaded Iraq”

“They didn’t need an excuse of the false information of weapons of mass destruction”

“They just wanted Saddam Hussein out, so that the precious oil could be controlled by them”

“This act of aggression by western powers is now reaping the rewards of a false strategy”

“That unleashed the mother of all horrors in the Middle East”

“They thought once Saddam Hussein was removed that would be that”

“They, through their short-sightedness, never thought through the consequences of their actions”

“Now, with IS and their terrorist groups which have emerged, they are fighting back and the West doesn’t like it”

“It really is for the people to start to charge their own Governments with crimes against humanity”

“The innocent people of the Middle East had no say in the Bush invasion and many were killed aimlessly”

“The West is now reaping the revenge attacks for the aggression shown and administered to the people of the Middle East”

“It is always the innocent who suffer on both sides of the aggression”

“It is now that the wise men of council on both sides must bring about peace”

“They must stop this continual invasion of imperial countries, because of the resources they feel they must have”

“We have to learn how to trade properly if we want oil or other things”

“We cannot expect that we have a right to take it just because we can!”

“Those that have the big stick are no longer ruling as they once thought they could”

“The fight back because of this is continuous and the invaders lives lost cannot be gained by an acquisition”

“All that the invader once thought they had gained will be taken back by those invaded as it the people’s right to do so”

“Warmongering might be profitable on the surface to the United States and Russia”

“But the lives scarified in that pursuit of oil ‘I must have’ is too high a price for any country to continue to bear”

“Trade becomes the only way forward and where a mutual trust can develop over time”

“If this is ignored by arrogance, then the terrorist will continue to hit back and hard enough before the message becomes clear”

“If you are aggressive to us, we will be aggressive to you”

“Having already lost everything in their lives, they have nothing left and so their vengeance is far greater”

“Be wise and learn, all you Governments of this world!”

14th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“The situation in Paris is grave, but not undone”

“The French people will rally around President Hollande and give him their support”

“What is needed now is to look at what IS is doing in its fight against the West and democracy as they know it”

“They wish a total totalitarian state created by themselves for their extreme ideology of Islam”

“They see it as their sole purpose and as their identity to rule in their own right and to establish a caliphate””

“From here they want to rule the world and to rid themselves of those who do not agree with their policies”

“The world now has to wake up to the thinking that all is not as we see it”

“There are many changing factors, where public dissent on others is no longer acceptable”

“There are too many different and opposing views and although most feel they are right in their views, most are not”

“We are becoming more of an integrated society, especially with the refugee crisis of many people fleeing persecution and unrest”

“It is the indigenous people that are being dissolved into more of a multicultural society, whether they like it or not”

“It then becomes necessary to begin to understand each other & to behave with tolerance & acceptance that we cannot all agree on everything”

“What must be discussed are our common themes, our common values and how we can make living together a possibility”

“Tolerance above the norm needs to be exercised, so that as a human race we are brought together to work and live side by side”

“It is also necessary that those who enter countries around the world, which was not their birth country…”

“…must learn to integrate in ways that go above the means of normal integration”

“The state & the indigenous people must all work together, so that no one feels an outsider & where unity becomes the daily form of life”

“Too often foreign people do not integrate, do not learn to speak the language and do not assist in the country’s future”

“They find themselves marginalised, left out in the cold, not serving themselves or the people of the country they have adopted as their own”

“Separate factions always breed unrest and anger, where they feel they are not supported and this helps to incite conflict”

“In the case of IS they consider themselves the elite of Islamic teachings, but it is up to the Arab Kingdoms to deal with their own kind”

“It is the Arab Kingdoms who must bring about stability to unrest and an unjust Middle East”

“No one except Arabs and Muslims alike can do this”

“It is no longer the West who must be the policemen for the Arab world”

“It is now time that Arab nations join together to deal with their own Islamic unrest and put in policies whereby their own rules apply”

“They must defend their people and not just look on and accept the carnage inflicted”

“They mustn’t expect western countries to do their dirty work for them”

“There has been enough pain and suffering, so the Arab world must now look to their own responsibilities”

“The western countries must look to their own and stop interfering!” 

13th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“They may be small, but the world needs bees!”

“They pollinate one third of the food we eat, the fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and food for livestock”

“Recently bee colonies around the world have been collapsing with bees dying at an alarming rate”

“A tiny South Pacific island called Niue may hold the solution”

“In Niue, abandoned hives are disease free and bees have been discovered deep in the jungle”

“Monsanto’s $45bn takeover of the Swiss company Syngenta AG makes them the world’s largest producer of agricultural chemicals”

“It has sparked off opposition across the world”

“One of the chemicals in Monsanto’s flagship is a weedkiller, which is probably carcinogenic”

“In many parts of the world Monsanto’s Roundup weedkiller, which contains glyphosate, has been banned”

“This group of chemicals known as neonicotinoids in pesticides, have been linked to the seriously harming of bees”

“Bees are essential for crops, but pesticides, their loss of habitat and disease have all contributed to their downfall”

“Andy Cory has been a beekeeper for over 35 years and is a specialist in queen bee breeding”

“He owns directly and oversees 3,000 hives in New Zealand and has 1,000 hives on Niue”

“He is considered to be the Pacific’s leading apiculturist”

“Andy first located the bees on Niue fifteen years ago”

“He says they are the healthiest bees descended from the Italian honey bees in the region and possibly in the world”

“The bees were brought to Niue well before the major honey bee diseases, parasites and chemicals that harm today’s bees could affect them”

“They have been effectively isolated in their tropical paradise for bees”

“The bee sanctuary on Niue is now critical to ensure that there will always be a healthy and protective stock to draw from in the future”

“The move now is to formulate a Global Bee Sanctuary on Niue to safeguard the genetic stock of this Italian bee”

“From that to spread Niue’s honeybee stock to other Pacific island nations”

“Then together with their regional partners send them to the Northern Hemisphere countries to produce pollination services for the future”

“As with all things, where there is a will there is a way and saving the honey bee is vital for world production in so many ways”

12th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“In all things man must be true to himself alone, to see matters are put right and where the love voice is heard for all time”

“The moving away from the material and into the Spiritual way of life is now manifesting”

“Mankind is beginning to see the constraints of a material life, where everything is bought, but where love has no meaning”

“It is the change of people’s mind-sets, which is now steering a path to democracy and wellbeing”

“It is Mankind alone, who is now turning back to the right way of living and being”

“No longer do they trust in their politicians or the various modes of encapsulated bondage”

“It is the people, who must be free of all constraints and to steer their own path back to righteousness and right thinking”

“Gone are the enslaved people, acting like sheep to one commander in chief”

“There are now many organisations, who seek to put right the injustices of Man and these are growing with a vengeance”

“No longer can they sit back and allow injustices on many levels to be the right way forwards”

“See many long term institutions now being smashed down as never before”

“The corrupt will be demolished for all time”

“They have had their day and have brought massive destruction on the innocent and just people”

“See heads of states/Governments and institutions being relieved of their positions and where they will no longer see the light of day”

“The world is now changing and Mankind and whole populations will have their days in court”

“It is they that will cause a landslide of other injustices to come to the surface”

“At last the people of the world will be able to speak and be heard as never before”

“The tide is now turning on so many institutions and all will be brought down in time”

“Smaller, more manageable organisations will be formed and controlled”

“There will be a better service provided for all to enjoy and gain from”

“Life will be able to balance out and the people will once again begin to trust in the right way of living and being”

“Mankind is able to triumph through adversity!”

11th November 2015 (jandmayers and ladylydialondon twitter)

“Aung San Suu Kyi has been campaigning for reform in Myanmar since she was released from house arrest in 2010”

“A very excited man, aged 39 years old, has voted for the first time”

“He has found that the National League for Democracy (NLD) has won in his own town”

“He is hoping that Suu Kyi’s party will be able to improve education and healthcare for his children”

“This is the country’s first openly contested election in decades and has seen an estimated 80% voter turnout, it is unprecedented”

“The NLD have stated they have won 70% of the votes, winning seats in Yangon and even in the capital Naypyidaw”

“The capital had been ruled by the Union Solidarity and Development Party and they had expected to win”

“Although there has not been any official result, the people themselves know that Suu Kyi has won!”

“The military Government handed power to a semi-civilian Government in 2011, but still the military dominates politics after decades in power”

“The military secures 25% of the seats in Parliament, which are automatically reserved for them”
