Can Digital Currency Beat the Banksters?

21-01-2014 20:03

The banking industry brought the world economy to its knees through its excesses and irresponsible greed - and our governments responded by giving the banks massive amounts of cash. This was done through the fundamental mechanisms of fiat currency - printing money based on debt.

Geneva II – Washington’s Plan B for regime change in Syria

21-01-2014 18:35



The fatal problem with the Geneva II negotiations on Syria, due to open next week in Switzerland, is that the process is furtively being treated by the US and its allies as a lever for regime change. It is their Plan B for regime change, where Plan A is the failed covert military tactic. That does not bode well for a successful, that is sustainable, settlement to a crisis that is nearly three years old with well over 100,000 deaths and nine million people – more than a third of the total population – displaced from their homes. It amounts to an illegal interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state, and as such is doomed to fail.

Video

this is an urgent appeal for all anti-death penalty activists and those who care about justice, to take action against an atrocious miscarriage of justice in the United Arab Emirates. A Sri Lankan National will be taken before the firing squad tomorrow morning (January 21) over the accidental death of a man who tried to rape him. The deceased's family refuses to renounce retaliation just to cover up the shame of the events which led up to the fatal incident.

2013 Fascist Roundup

18-01-2014 10:39

The fascists are starting 2014 in a grim place. Tommy Robinson’s desertion of the EDL has left the organisation in a shambles which barely managed to get 200 members to the organisation’s latest national demo in Exeter. EDL members are now outnumbered many times over by antifascists at their demos. As if this woeful state of affairs wasn’t enough, 32 EDL activists were recently jailed for a total of more than 55 years for their involvement in violent disorder at the EDL’s Walsall demonstration. Among those sentenced were Kirk Jones (33 months), Mick Thomas (28 months) and Christopher Boyall (24 months) from Leicestershire and Kirk Reeves from Derbyshire (18 months). They will join the vast majority of the North West Infidels who are already serving time for violent disorder and former EDL leader, Guramit Singh, who will be serving 6 1/2 years for the attempted robbery of a Hucknall garden centre.
