No disrespect to King Charles III, but the BBC are once again appear to be giving wall to wall coverage, king has cancer, will step back from duties, the royal family will step up to do their job. There are other things going on in the worlad that are far more significant, such as the War in Ukraine, War in Gaza and the increasing crisis in Yemen and other parts of the middle east.

Thankfully there are some parts of the media and here of course, where in the true british spirit, we just carry on regardless of what the main stream is talking about.

Tommy Robinson and Katie Hopkins reinstated on X

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-67331288

More evidence that X is now a cesspit.

I will quote part of the article below for anyone not sure who the above people are

"Anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson has had his account reinstated on social media platform X, formerly Twitter.

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was reinstated alongside political commentator Katie Hopkins.

Hopkins was banned in 2020 and Robinson's account was suspended in 2018 - Twitter accused both of breaking its rules on hateful conduct.

Following a conversation on here I am asking for some help to work out what products are produced from crude oil and how we can produce alternatives.

https://www.personaljournal.ca/paulsutton/products-from-crude-oil

I am throwing this out to the community to between us we can start to gather information and present this so we can make a better argument to reduce and eliminate our need for crude oil.

Granted some products are going to need some R&D to replace, but maybe that will inspire people to study STEM and undertake that research.

I know, I am trying to avoid implying anything directly on here.

People in the UK are under threat of arrest for appearing to support Hamas and Palestine, given the fact our uneducated government can't tell the4 difference.

If Hamas are not permitted by Israel to access any of the food or medical supplies sent to Gaza. What happens if they NEED these to keep the people taken by them alive.

This is good news from Aljazeera

Cancellation of Jordan summit ‘major embarrassment’ to the US

It’s a major blowback to the United States, and a major embarrassment.

Since the beginning of this whole affair, the US has assigned itself as the regional cop, the regional sheriff… defending Israel against any repercussions from the region.

But the one thing the American president cannot do is control Arab public opinion, and clearly the Arab and Palestinian public opinion is on fire.

I agree with this, I think the Arab world is just sick of the USA now.

Ok update from Aljazeera

Israeli officials delete video on posts claiming Palestinians responsible for hospital strike

Social media accounts belonging to the State of Israel and the Israeli ambassador to the US both appear to have deleted a video on posts claiming that a rocket fired from within Gaza caused the deadly explosion at al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City.

The plot clearly thickens as they say

So as neither Israel or the USA are signed up to conventions international law, it makes it harder to prosecute Israel or at least the leaders.

What about prosecuting countries that still use the narrative they are using their right to self defense ?

There HAS to be a charge of accessory somewhere.

If the border crossing is between Egypt and Gaza, can't the Egyptions just open up the border so people can get out to safety and just tell Isreal to get stuffed.

Set up a refugee camp with UN and other aid agencies so that all Palestinians who come across can be documented, ( a good way to perhaps reunited families ) be given medical and other help, children can get back to education.

Why should the west be pushing for humanitarian corridors, if Isreal had any morality respect for international law, it would ensure these were set up to protect civilians, eso as they claim to be targeting Hamas.

This is quoted from a Daily Mail headline, but the wording to me is just dangerous.

"Israel PM Netanyahu vows to 'change the Middle East…what Hamas will experience will be difficult and terrible' after defence minister said 'we're fighting animals and we act accordingly'"

What I see coming is a massacre of anyone living in Palestine, mostly women and children and innocent civilians, unless power, water and other supplies are restored then the death toll is going to be much higher,

Even George Bush didn't use this language after 9/11 he said something like 'we're going to get the folks that did this'

Are dogs actually to blame here, or is it how that dog is raised and treated during life. ? So perhaps in some cases it is a human issue, some dogs are bred to fight, again it needs humans to facilitate the process so they get the traits required.

My blog at https://personaljournal.ca/paulsutton is currently showing a 502 : bad gateway error message.

I have contacted the admin of the instance to see if the issue can be fixed.,

This is all I can do. So if anyone is following my blog either directly or from here, this message is just to say I am trying to sort this out.

Hope this helps

Over the past monmth we have seen a succesful coup in both Niger and more recently Gabon. I wonder if those behind this have been watching what is going on in the US closely and thought well if Trump can attempt to overturn an democratically elected government and get away with it, so can we.

So in some sense if this is true, Trump has empowered opposition in various countries to use force to take over a country.

Nice going eh. The failure of the US to act swiftly against trump and followers has potentially put thousands at risk.
