Brazil Is Kicking Off...BTW!

21-06-2013 11:36

It appears that the situation in Brazil has not yet attracted a proper mention on the news feed of IndyMedia, so I thought I had better bring it to peoples attention, in case for some reason, they had not heard that hundreds of thousands of people have been protesting in hundreds of towns and cities against corruption, the stupendous costs of the world cup next year and the olympics two years later.

Obama has a Rape Room in Europe

Kelley Barracks Moehringen
While the war criminals meeting in Northern Ireland are trying to get their failed currencies together to harass a terminally ill world a little longer, every human being is counting down for the total and immediate disarmament that will need to be mercilessly pushed upon the kleptocratic entity. As the greed and hypocrisy of the regime cabal is peaking in ever more unfertile absurdities, it remains of utmost importance to point at the most probable breaking point in the so-called "Atlantic relationship."

Is the Naxal the New Vanguard of Antifascism?

29-05-2013 20:34

With the guerilla attack on a convoy of career politicians in India last week, this has suddenly turned from a big issue into a big question, not so much in the Hindu state itself as in smaller nations whose regimes, due to its sheer size, are eying the most populous one of the Asian subcontinents like a moon in order to exploit as much as of its gravity as they can for their local dominance. The Naxal, the Marxist rebel network within that entity, has escalated the insurrection against the Delhi regime to the level of the 20th century resistance against the first wave of fascism under Japanese occupation reaching the Indian ocean. The Delhi regime has reacted with a statement calling the attack "a Holocaust", which puts forward the question why Indian internal affairs would be gravitating around German history. Obviously it is not the case that the Naxal was entrapping an entire tribal subculture to feed them to the hellfire and rewrite history accordingly, like the Nazis, and if any comparison had been made between the Chhattisgarh attack and the Jewish insurrection in the Warsaw ghetto there would probably have been widespread cautioning against such analogy as in the case of the Palestinians a while ago. Scientific experience suggests that the small entity rotates around the big one and not the other way round, so what does such an inversion of circumstances tell about the Naxal?
