Syria - the great test of true leadership

When politicians constantly muddy the waters of truth with incessant spin to make themselves look better or to deceive the public into thinking things are better than they really are, we the public, no longer know what to believe. The public naturally becomes highly sceptical. Worse it loses respect for the political classes and authority in general. This is a searing condemnation of those we elected to represent us.

We find they are undeserving of our trust and thus our respect. Thus we are unable to believe a word they say. They show us by their actions how indifferent they are to the truth and the general public. They take us for fools and thus make fools of themselves, something they appear not to comprehend at all or if they do, they dont care. That is the saddest indictment of their lack of integrity and wisdom and it is truly staggering.

Hence when Cameron and Obama stand up and tells us that the Assad regime is guilty of using chemical weapons against its own people and they are preparing to strike, despite conflicting evidence, despite the fact that a UN inspection team is on the ground gathering evidence which has not yet been presented, we are naturally dumbfounded and extremely sceptical.

Why would Assad risk losing his only remaining allies, Russia, China and Iran? Its sheer stupidity. It does not make sense. That is not to say that his regime is not capable of such idiocy but it is as yet far from proven. That Obama, Cameron and their supposed allies were prepared to strike without having all the facts being gathered by UN inspectors to hand, smacks of political impropriety at the very least. At worst it smacks of much more sinster motives including deception and lack of regard for truth.

We must never again allow ourselves to be used as cannon fodder by the elite for their lust for power and control over the world's financial, mineral and agricultural resources. We are sick of these antiquated dinosaurs and their twisted perception of the politics of power and domination that have led the world down a path of mutual destruction and insanity for millenia.

We the people are no longer prepared to be sacrificial lambs in this monstrous game of self agrandisment of the few at the expense of the many. We are not pawns. We are people. We demand peace for everyone, food on the table for all, free universal education and the right to bring our children up in tranquilty wherever we live in the world.

We demand that those we elect to represent us stop investing in war and switch resources towards investment in peace. That is the only hope of creating a peaceful world. We elect politicians not to make the world worse but better. That is how we ensure our survival. There is no other. Love begets love and hate begets hate. Its that simple.

Cameron's and Obama's legacy, unlike those who have gone before will be decided by their ability to steer the world away from war not to take it to war for which history will forever condemn them.

Risks of Genetically modified food - evidence

Communication from War On Want


The Environment Minister Owen Paterson is backing genetically modified food - neglecting evidence provided in the longest independent study on genetically modified (GM) corn feed to date.  The ground-breaking 2012 study links GM and the use of pesticide Roundup to organ damage and increased risk of tumours. Previous studies have been carried out by companies such as Monsanto who themselves produce GM crops.

War on Want has helped organise a speaker tour, giving you the opportunity to hear from the leading scientist who has provided independent evidence on the risks of GM food.  We will have a series of events in Scotland, Wales and England during the GM Health Risk Week (2-8 September) where you'll hear a different perspective to what the media and the UK government are saying.

The GM Health Risk Week: an event near you!

David Cameron pledged £395 million from the UK Aid budget during the G8 forum to support private initiatives involved in spreading GM crops in Africa. This investment, under the guise of aid, will in fact lock small-scale farmers into dependency on corporate providers of seeds and chemical fertilisers, undermining any chance of defeating hunger. Farmers and civil society organisations across Africa oppose it.

The UK government should suspend its funding for research into GM crops. Instead it should support agricultural research focused on sustainable, organic and traditional seed propagation developed by small-scale farmers around the world.

The risks of GM food and crops to the food system and human health have been downplayed by the UK government and the media.

Join us to learn more about risks that GM poses to our food system.

I look forward to seeing you,

Knowledge without wisdom

The state of the world is definitive proof that the direction we have been pursuing is misguided. The world of materialism is the path to self destruction and yet it is almost impossible to escape this web into which we are born and in which 99.9% of us are entrapped. Without a great awakening we cannot escape the strands of this web. Knowledge is useless, even dangerous when seperated from wisdom. Those that control the levers of the world are sadly blinded by their ego, greed and lust for earthly power.

Each one of us must work as hard as we can to awaken their spirit. We must come together to show them the terrible error of their ways. We must demand change and we can best do that perhaps by changing ourselves and refusing to follow their road map to destruction.

To all who work so hard to show us the light of truth, bless you.

John F. Kennedy - Historic Speeches

President John Kennedy was the last true leader of the free world for which he paid the ultimate price. He foresaw the threat that corporate and military power posed to both democratic and individual freedom. He detested the idea of secret societies and saw them as repugnant in a free and open society.

He exposed the agenda of shadowy cabals:

"For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.

Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed."

No leader since has displayed a fraction of his courage or vision. No leader since has spoken up for the people as did President Kennedy.

Herewith the Historic speeches of a truly great leader and courageous man.

Architects & Engineers for 9/11 truth

It is clear that the evidence presented by over 1500 architects and engineers fundamentally contradicts the official 9/11 Commission Report casting doubt on the voracity and integrity of those involved. It is imperative that the government undertakes to launch an independent enquiry to examine the concerns of experts with regard to the collapse of the Twin Towers and WTC building 6. In the view of these experts the reasons given for the collapse of these three buildings could not account for the events that unfolded on live television on that infamous day.

To find out more please go to the following link:

Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth

The more of us that support and sign the petition, the more likely the govenment will be forced to re-examine all the events of that day. The victims and their families around the world deserve the truth. We cannot accept anything less.
