An illegal interview with Mordechai Vanunu
ENG/ITA
youtube
youtube
youtube
Questa è un'intervista, che ho filmato a Gerusalemme il 7 novembre 2004, a Mordechai Vanunu, il tecnico nucleare che rivelò al mondo l'esistenza dell'atomica israeliana.
Dopo il suo rapimento a Roma, nel 1986, scontò 17 anni di carcere di cui undici in isolamento per tradimento, nonostante Israele abbia ammesso solo pochi anni fa di avere effettivamente un arsenale nucleare. Strano caso di tradimento, visto che denunciò una cosa "non esistente" all'epoca dei fatti...
A tutt'oggi, Israele non ha firmato il Trattato di Non Proliferazione e gli ispettori internazionali non possono verificare i suoi impianti, a differenza di ciò che accade in Iran, che il trattato l'ha firmato.
Vanunu uscì dal carcere pochi mesi prima di questa intervista, con la clausola che non rilasciasse interviste ai giornalisti stranieri. La nostra non fu l'unica, forse la prima ma non saprei, ciò che so è che fu nuovamente arrestato alcuni mesi dopo.
Nonostante, ormai, le sue informazioni siano datate e inutilizzabili, non gli è comunque concesso il permesso di lasciare il paese.
Nell'intervista parla anche dell'Italia, in particolare all'inizio, con le conoscenze che può avere una persona che vive all'estero ed ha passato diciassette anni in carcere, di cui undici in isolamento: l'idea che la mafia sia meno presente e che non ci sia più corruzione, a noi italiani fa sorridere per l'ingenuità. Ma ciò che dice riguardo Israele, invece, è molto importante dal momento che è il paese in cui vive dall'età di nove anni e conosce molto bene sulla sua pelle.

Ubi Sunt — #4
November 27th, 2023
good evening! if you're in the right timezone :3
if not - good morning, good afternoon, good day, goodnight etc.
i visited the library today!!
UNFORTUNATELY my mother forgot her library card so i wasn't able to check out anything.
FORTUNATELY there was a box of free shit right outside, and i took a book called Atomic Anna. it somehow involves nuclear science.
i haven't immersed myself in a new book for...quite a while, so i'll definitely make reference to it in some later posts.
having read about nuclear tests before, i can't help but remember even the smaller things the u.s. has gotten away with...
in the 1954 castle bravo bomb test, a 15-megaton nuclear weapon detonated on an atoll in the marshall islands.
there was an enormous fallout, leading to severe radiation sickness for the marshallese people and a crew of japanese fishermen.
even in "weak" forms, nuclear weapons truly terrify me.
the fact that only a handful of privileged countries control weapons of mass destruction should terrify everyone...
i'll end today's post with my acknowledgement and thanks to two anti-nuclear activists i learned about today:
Mordechai Vanunu (Israeli former nuclear scientist + whistleblower)
Motarilavoa Hilda Lin̄i (Ni-Vanuatu chief + Nobel Peace Prize nominee)

De peperbus van nonkel Miele (59): anti-zionistische joden
Joden en zionisten, één zelfde strijd? Dat is wat de leiders van de (uiterst) rechtse regering van premier Benjamin Netanhayu willen doen geloven. Het dient om hun misdaden en genocide tegen de Palestijnen te rechtvaardigen en elke criticus te criminaliseren als antisemiet. Prof. José Antonio Egido beschrijft dat veel Joden zich keren tegen het agressieve zionisme. Hij neemt ons mee in een korte…

Mordechai Vanunu (Hebrew: מרדכי ואנונו; born 14 October 1952),[1] also known as John Crossman,[2][3] is an Israeli former nuclear technician and peace activist[4] who, citing his opposition to weapons of mass destruction, revealed details of Israel's nuclear weapons program to the British press in 1986.[5] He was subsequently lured to Italy by the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, where he was drugged and abducted.[5] He was secretly transported to Israel and ultimately convicted in a trial that was held behind closed doors.[5]
Vanunu spent 18 years in prison, including more than 11 in solitary confinement

This is my list of (IMHO) genuinely heroic people. I keep this list so that when I'm feeling uninspired I can pick a name at random, look them up, and be inspired. My memory kinda sucks so I've usually forgotten about them in the interim so it's like hearing some inspiring story for the first time. Please feel free to use this list for that purpose or for whatever purpose helps you. This is a private thing I've been absent-mindedly curating for years, so it's a little discombobulated; maybe I should put it in alphabetical order, for example. Since it works for what I use it for, though, I've never had the need for that, although there may be some duplicates specifically because of that.
If you have any additions, I'd love to hear them.
If you know of a reason somebody should not be on here, I'd love to hear that too. There are some controversial choices here, some people I've hemmed and hawed about, but in the end they're still on the list.
In no particular order:
Rachel Corrie
Aaron Bushnell
Sophie Scholl
Irena Sendler
Eugeniusz Łazowski
Mary Schweitzer. I know who she is but I'm including her anyway. Takes guts to do what she did
Temar Boggs
Juan Pujol García
Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson
Robert Smalls
Temar Boggs
Henrietta Swan Leavitt
Aitzaz Hassan Bangash Shaheed. Might already be on here; I need to alphabetize this list
Sal Khan. Yeah, I'm including him
Irena Sendler
Neerja Bhanot
Iqbal Masih
Tank man
Stephen Ruth. The guy with the cameras. He's no tank man, but why not, he's on the list
Narendra Dabholkar
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Sophie Scholl
Charles Hazlitt Upham
Wang Weilin
John Rabe (? ... Kind of questionable for obvious reasons. He saved a couple hundred thousand Chinese people though. I don't know. He was what he was.)
Baron Jean Michel P.M.G. de Selys Longchamps, DFC
Aitzaz Hasan Bangash
Daniel Hale
Hannie Schaft
Reality Winner … I guess
Aki Ra
Norman Borlaug
Neil Armstrong
Stanislav Petrov
Vasili Alexandrovich Arkhipov
William Kamkwamba
Donald A Henderson
Freddie Oversteegen
Daryl Davis and his collection of robes
Jacinto Convit
Sir Nicholas Winton
August Landmesser
Jonas Salk
Carl Lutz
Giorgio Perlasca
Derrick Nelson, principal of Westfield High School in New Jersey
Giles Corey
Chiune Sugihara
Sophie Scholl
Ronald McNair? Why not
Khader Adnan
Mordechai Vanunu
Corollary:
I'm not sure how to phrase "the opposite of this list," so I'm just going to call it the opposite of this list. Genuinely villainous people? Too easy, and honestly not what I'm going for. Anyway, I'm going to leave out the obvious like Hitler, Trump and Gaddafi because they're, well, obvious. Actually I'm not really sure what the goal of this list is so I'm just kind of winging it. People not to emulate?

Vanunu nel 1986 decise di rivelare al mondo che sì, è vero che Israele possiede l’arma nucleare, che sotto la centrale sperduta del deserto del Negev dove lui si recava ogni giorno a lavorare si trovava una fabbrica con plutonio sufficiente per produrre 200 armi atomiche. Erano stati i francesi negli anni 50 a confidare ad Israele i segreti militari dell’atomo ma la tacita convezione era di non dirlo pubblicamente. Anche se tutto il mondo lo ha sempre saputo.Dunque Vanunu, dopo un tormentato esame di auto-coscienza, prese accordi con il Sunday Times di Londra dove si recò per essere intervistato sulle sue preziose informazioni, proprio mentre le spie del Mossad seguivano i suoi movimenti. Perché non lo fermarono prima: ormai era fatta, fermare una rotativa non è come oggi buttare le copie di un giornale già stampato (come fa Molinari)��� e poi un po’ di pubblicità non guasta mai poi. Lo lasciarono fare, dunque, e poi chiesero all’allora capo del governo di sua Maestà (era la Thatcher) se la disturbasse una operazione per rapire il loro tecnico. La signora di ferro rispose che non se ne parlava proprio, che non voleva grane in casa sua, si rivolgessero agli italiani che erano più laschi.
Fu così che i servizi di Tel Aviv architettarono un piano incredibile con il benestare delle autorità di Roma (allora a capo del governo era Bettino Craxi): fecero adescare l’ingenuo Mordecai da una bionda di nome Cindy che lo invitò a passare con lei un paio di giorni nella città eterna. Candidamente perso negli occhi dell’avvenente spia, Vanunu partì, trovando gli israeliani ai piedi dell’aereo sulla pista di Fiumicino. Messo in una macchina venne rapito e rispedito in Israele. Se fosse solo una spy-story sarebbe avvincente ma non è così. Iniziò il suo dramma: incarcerato in una prigione di massima sicurezza é stato rinchiuso in un lungo, totale isolamento, rilasciato dopo diciotto anni ma mai uomo libero perché sottoposto a crudeli regole: senza passaporto, con il divieto di avvicinarsi a meno di 500 metri da un porto o da un aeroporto, dalle ambasciate o dalle auto del corpo diplomatico o di incontrare un cittadino straniero senza autorizzazione.
Insomma, si aprirono per Mordecai le porte dell’inferno con una persecuzione vendicativa senza fine, metodo che oggi vediamo applicato su larga scala tra le strade di Gaza. Vanunu non è stato solo: come per Assange, fondatore di Weakileaks che ha rivelato come la santa alleanza occidentale fa le sue guerre di dominio, un largo movimento di solidarietà lo sostenne, chiedendo la sua liberazione e il disarmo dell’area mediterranea. Egli non agì per interesse personale né si offrì al mercato spionistico: la sua fu una scelta etica che poneva il mondo di fronte ai rischi della proliferazione nucleare.

Get to Know My OC
I'm so honored that @gummybugg tagged me in this! I love these kinds of things, and I'll take any excuse to answer questions about/from the POV of my OCs! Even if it takes me a week; sorry about that ^^; find @gummybugg's post here and I'll be tagging @moondust-bard and @sunnyanddumb98 with no pressure of course!
I choose Cricket! Specifically, Cricket a week before the book begins!
I hold my hand close to the floor, allowing Cricket Collins, a young boy standing only about eleven inches tall, to hop up into my palm. Smiling down at him, I gently move him up to a desk, where a plush chair sized for him has been placed. He hops off my hand and trots over to the chair, plopping down, snuggling in, and pulling his brown jacket a bit tighter around himself. He’s dressed in multiple layers, since he doesn’t generate as much body heat being so small, and his fluffy brown hair’s combed back neatly.
“Are you ready to start the interview, Cricket?” I ask.
“Ready as I’ll ever be,” he shrugs, but his smile gives away his excitement.
1. Are you named after anyone?
“My first name, Adam, doesn’t really come from anyone, my parents just liked it. But my Jewish name is Mordechai, from the Scroll of Esther! Oh, and a couple other Mordechais, too—my parents told me…I think one of them led a rebellion in the Holocaust…? Oh, and another—I remember him, Mordechai Vanunu…right? I dunno, it was a lot to take in when my parents were telling me about it.”
2. When was the last time you cried?
Cricket hesitates for a moment before answering. At a subtle nod from me, he takes a deep breath and speaks.
“Last time was, well, when I was cutting onions for bigos,” he chuckles. “But the last time I actually, like, sad-cried? It was…the day after my parents left. I went into their old room and laid down in their bed and just cried. I must’ve cried the whole day. I was so dizzy when I got back up! Anyway, I closed that door and I haven’t gone in there since, just to make sure it doesn’t happen again.”
3. Do you have kids?
Cricket laughs, gazing up at me with a twinkle in his eye. “I’m fourteen! Ask me again in ten years!”
4. Do you use sarcasm?
“I mean, maybe sometimes.” He shrugs. “I’m not too good at it. At using it or picking up on it. Why say things that aren’t true?”
5. What's the first thing you notice about people?
“Usually what they’re doing, I guess? I try not to judge people by their looks too much.”
6. What's your eye color?
“Brown.”
“What color brown?” I prompt.
“Darker than my skin or my hair,” Cricket says. “Real dark.”
7. Scary movies or happy endings?
“Oh, happy endings, definitely! I don’t like it when it’s just a bunch of bad things happening and then the story ends, y’know? There’s always gotta be a way to move forward!”
8. Any special talents?
“Well, Auster says I have a talent for making friends, but anyone can do that, y’know? Here’s the talent I’m really proud of!”
He works up some spit in his mouth, takes a deep breath, and emits a long, shrill cricket chirp. Grinning, he continues.
“Pretty cool, huh? I’ve even attracted some field crickets to the yard before!”
9. Where were you born?
“I was born right here in New Royston! Neither of my parents were, but I was, and I’ve never known any other home.” He seems quite proud of this.
10. What are your hobbies?
“I don’t have a lot of them. I’m usually pretty busy just making sure the house is okay, making food, stuff like that. Sometimes I go help out on the Fitzhenrys’ bug farm, sometimes I just go hang out with friends. I’m content with that.”
11. Have you any pets?
“No, but I’ve always wanted to get myself some kind of pet bug! Maybe a tailless whip scorpion, or a Madagascar hissing cockroach, or some kind of rhino beetle! If I were bigger, I’d definitely want more than one, but right now, I think I could barely handle one!”
12. What sports do you play/have played?
“There aren’t a lot of sports you can play in New Royston, thanks to the whole size thing. Our high school doesn’t even have any sports! But I did like playing capture the flag in elementary school at recess.”
13. How tall are you?
“Last time I checked, I’m eleven inches and three quarters! I’ve been getting bigger with my parents saving up money. As for my real height, I, uh…well, I dunno. I’ve never been outside of New Royston’s borders before…”
14. Favorite subject in school?
“I like science—I like learning about the world. And even with stuff like chemistry and physics that use a lot of math, it’s math that I can apply to the real world, so I understand it a lot better than ‘real’ math classes. I think my favorite is biology, though.”
15. Dream job?
“Definitely an entomologist. I’d love to be one of those people that takes care of bugs and shows them off in shows and teaches people about them. Bugs can be so cool and helpful, and it’s just a shame that so many people are scared of them!”
With the interview done, I offer my hand to help Cricket off the desk, but he doesn’t take it. Instead, he chirps “Watch this!” and heads over to the edge of the desk, pacing along it, gazing down at the ground as a cat would before it jumps. Then, he vaults off the desk, flipping himself over midair and landing on his shoulder blade, somersaulting into a standing position.
“Wish me luck at school next week!” He calls, waving and darting away.

U.S. Sec. of State Antony Blinken is in Israel, meeting with Netanyahu for talks that the Israeli PM’s office described as focusing on “uniting against” Iran. This, as the U.S. says it is investigating after top secret highly classified documents from the U.S. Intelligence Community that detailed Israel’s plans to attack Iran, were leaked on Telegram.
John Kiriakou, an Author, Journalist, and former CIA Officer and Whistleblower, noted that this leak is extremely significant, as the documents also acknowledged that Israel has nuclear weapons—an “open secret” that the U.S. and Israel have never publicly acknowledged, even after an Israel whistleblower was sentenced to years in prison for revealing Israel’s nuclear program.

please keep in mind that the IDF, who America financially props up and arms heavily to function as a leg in the middle east through Israel, also trains our police officers.
Atlanta is facing cop city, NYPD and LAPD are notoriously corrupt and overpowered— and issues like that exist because the US wants a body like the IDF to control our population. especially in the wake of major protests and social movements like BLM, Pro-Palestine, and queer right demonstrations.
moreover, in 2020, when George Floyd was murdered, it was argued if the IDF had taught these tactics to cops.
[image ID: FactCheck article title "Did Israeli secret services teach Floyd Police to knell of neck?", Aljazerra article titled "How the US and Israel exchange tactics in violence and control," two screenshots of text from an Amnesty International site: "These trainings put Baltimore police and other U.S. law enforcement employees in the hands of military, security and police systems that have racked up documented human rights violations for years. Amnesty International, other human rights organizations and even the U.S. Department of State have cited Israeli police for carrying out extrajudicial executions and other unlawful killings, using ill treatment and torture (even against children opens in a new tab), suppression of freedom of expression/association including through government surveillance, and excessive use of force against peaceful protesters." and "There are also documented incidents of suppression of freedom of expression by Israeli police. For instance, journalists covering protests have been assaulted or shot. Individuals are also arrested for social media posts or for gathering to peacefully discuss the occupation. Police have harassed and arrested Israeli whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu repeatedly since he served his full sentence in 2004. Just this past July, Vanunu was in court for giving a news interview, moving (in the same building) without notifying police and for meeting with foreign nationals." end ID]
whatever the IDF does to Palestinians, our cops will try and impose on the rest of us. in the same way white phosphorus is used on Gaza as tear gas is used in the States, despite both supposedly being barred from condoned usage.
the psychological, mental, and emotional turmoil they cause alongside with what weapons they use to their strategies— our government is practicing what they want to do to their own rebelling citizens on Palestinians.
they're not only guinea pigs to modernized American imperialism, but they are victims to the true fascist capability of the United States.
They have turned the Palestinians into actual Guinea pigs for the military industrial complex.
We will see the robots and miserable remote controlled dogs at the next big BLM protest on American soil soon enough.

Mordechai Vanunu, the scientist kidnapped and jailed for 18 years for revealing nuclear secrets
Metro Danny Rigg, Oct 6, 2024 The scientist who exposed Israel’s nuclear secrets is still banned from leaving the country or speaking to foreigners nearly 40 years since he was kidnapped by Mossad. Since the 1960s, Israel was suspected of having nuclear weapons, something it refuses to admit or deny to this day. But it wasn’t just one or two. Israel had a whole arsenal of them – as many as…

The missing link in the jfk assassination... Israel killed JFK.
JFK was the last real American president, since his death zionists have a death grip on the USA
The Israeli Nuclear Arms Link to the JFK Assassination Now the Subject of Worldwide Discussion …
For ten years Israeli propagandists called Final Judgment author Michael Collins Piper a "liar" and an "anti-Semite" for charging that Israeli intelligence played a role in the JFK assassination conspiracy because of JFK's bitter secret conflict with Israeli Prime Minister David BenGurion over Israel's efforts to build nuclear weapons of mass destruction. Certain self-styled “JFK assassination researchers" scoffed at Piper and refused to address the thesis of his book.
However, on July 25, 2004, many of Piper's critics were red-faced and silent when Israel's respected Jerusalem Post carried a story headlined: "Vanunu: Israel behind JFK Assassination." The newspaper reported that famed Jewish-born nuclear physicist, Dr. Mordechai Vanunu, recently released after spending 18 years in prison for exposing Israel's covert atomic weapons program—had charged that supporters of Israel's drive for nuclear weapons were involved in the JFK assassination precisely because of JFK's interference with their ambitions.
The Israeli government dismissed Vanunu's allegations, but what he said received attention in newspapers worldwide, with the notable exception of the United States where one and only one newspaper, mentioned Vanunu's charges and that was American Free Press, the Washington-based weekly that published Final Judgment. However, as widely read Internet writer, Rev. Mark Dankof, put it quite correctly: "The Vanunu-Piper allegations about Israel will not go away."
New Evidence Ties Israel's Nuclear Weapons Program to The New Orleans Connection in the JFK Conspiracy …
As the second printing of the sixth edition of this book went to press, a source with intimate, high-level knowledge about the NUMEC nuclear plant in Pennsylvania that smuggled nuclear materiel to Israel (see Chapter 8) provided documentation to Michael Collins Piper that the family of Edith Rosenwald Stern, a prominent New Orleans Jewish leader, were key financiers behind NUMEC. Mrs. Stern was the closest friend of Clay Shaw, the longtime CIA asset charged by New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison in the JFK conspiracy. Final Judgment had already documented Shaw's ties to Israeli intelligence, so the NUMEC-Stern connection is all the more damning and, with other data, explains why Garrison ultimately concluded there was an Israeli connection behind the conspiracy. And note this: Another NUMEC investor was Pittsburgh's CIA-connected "right wing" billionaire Richard Scaife, whose protégé, Joe Farah, a vocal supporter of Israel, promoted a JFK conspiracy book evidently designed to distract attention from Final Judgment. No more need be said.

Dickheads of the Month: November 2023
As it seems that there are people who say or do things that are remarkably dickheaded yet somehow people try to make excuses for them or pretend it never happened, here is a collection of some of the dickheaded actions we saw in the month of November 2023 to make sure that they are never forgotten.
Once again the Israeli Defence Forces decided to insult the intelligence of everybody else with their suggestion that it's okay for them to bomb ambulances as those were Hamas ambulances as opposed to regular, non-Hamas ambulances
...and it was the turn of Gilad Erdan to demonstrate, while once again wearing a gold star in the UN chamber, just how much of an open season on the intelligence of people listening to lie after lie by claiming that every single UN peacekeeper killed by the IDF were actually secret Hamas members, which somehow didn't have him dragged out of the chamber and told that he should fuck off and stay fucked off until he comes back to withdraw his remarks
...and when it fell to Isaac Herzog to insult the intelligence of the world, he pulled out a pristine copy of Mein Kampf and claimed it was found in the bombed-out remains of a children's living room with various Post-It notes to annotate it as if that somehow justifies bombing all Palestinian children - yet Laura Kuenssberg failed to challenge this patently absurd claim at any point in spite the claim being made on her show
...yet for some reason Grant Schapps decided he wanted in on the action, trying to justify Israel bombing civilians left, right and centre on Laura Kuenssberg's show by bringing up the Allied bombing of Dresden in World War II - which just so happened to be the exact same line which genocide denier Tzipi Hotovely used a couple of weeks previously trying to shut down Kay Burley on her show
...and then it was back to smears, with Eylon Levy dismissing the hundreds of thousands on the streets of London marching for peace by calling them "rape apologists", while David Collier accused it of being the largest antisemitic march in the history of the west, because that's going to turn the tide of the PR War that Israel have been losing one hospital bombing at a time
...then we had Aviva Klompas getting on on the "evidence" train, claiming to have found "evidence" that Hamas had tunnels under one of the various hospitals the Israelis had bombed, only for that "evidence" to not be a rota of guards and prisoners and merely just a calendar which was written in Arabic
...meanwhile along came Mark Regev to claim that Israel are not firing at hospitals but are firing at Hamas, which suggests that Israel has shitty aim since they keep hitting hospitals and not Hamas
...as opposed to Nir Barkat telling Palestinians that they should be thankful that Israel haven't dropped nukes on them - those would be the nukes Israel spent decades denying having, imprisoning Mordechai Vanunu for sixteen years for revealing the fact - while also throwing in the nugget accusing Hamas of committing atrocities worse than the Nazis ever had because why the fuck not at this point
...though it appears that Fox News were getting antsy about Israel's habitual lying without being asked to help out, which is why they were brought in to film the Israeli forces capturing a Hamas operative live on their channel - before unintentionally filming the Israeli forces chatting with the actor who they had playing a Hamas operative before being ordered to turn their cameras off
...though when it came time for Campaign Against Antisemitism to stage their own march, the main takeaway from the march was the one where Tommy Robinson was taken away by police - though some of the other attendees, such as proven liar Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson and Julia Hartley Brewer, as well as other noted figures of tolerance and valid arguments such as Eddie Marsan, Rachel Riley, Tracy Ann Oberman and Maureen Lipman
Fascist pitbull Suella Braverman must have realised there was a section of society she hadn't kicked in the ribs for a few weeks because there is no other logical explanation for her deciding to describe homelessness as a "lifestyle choice" while demanding that charities stop supplying tents to the homeless
...and because Suella Braverman was on her uppers she then started ranting about a pro-Palestine march at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday, which saw the Metropolitan Police issuing a statement which would not look out of place if uttered by Judge Dredd while Turning Point UK outright threatened the police by saying they had 24 hours to ban the march or they would be marching themselves and would not be taking prisoners, and then the Daily Mail waded in with a front page howling about how awful it would be if there was a riot at the Cenotaph. There was just one problem with this whole situation: no pro-Palestine march was scheduled for Remembrance Sunday and certainly not at the Cenotaph, it was scheduled for the Saturday like every other march which Braverman previously called "hate marches" - a term which, funnily enough, she did not use for TPUK's threatened walking riot
...and after all that Suella Braverman took the unusual (read: utterly fucking barmy) step of writing a column in The Times attacking the Metropolitan Police for not banning a protest which she had apparently made up judging by the numerous factual errors in her description of it, and then going further by accusing the police of bias for banning English Defence League marches (where there tend to be a lot of cases of assault from the people on them) and then foregoing her dogwhistle for a foghorn by claiming the police went easy on the Black Lives Matter protests compared to the anti-lockdown protests, at which point the question really needs asking about who the puppeteer with their hand up her backside is
...which led to a bout of hysterics from the Daily Mail as their front page screamed at the suggestion that Braverman could be sacked that "If you come for Suella you come for all of us", which only further begged the question who the us of that sentence is
...and so it came to bonehead messiah Tommy Robinson to commemorate Remembrance Day by leading his band of brainless dolts down Whitehall - a place, lest I remind you, is where there wasn't a pro-Palestine protest - where it all kicked off. However, it is highly sinister that both the BBC and Daily Mail framed their breaking story of the English Defence League et al kicking off as being the fault of the pro-Palestine march which, for the umpteenth time, was well over a mile away
...all of which led to Suella Braverman getting unceremoniously sacked the Monday morning after Remembrance Sunday, though for some reason the Daily Mail have not been particularly quick in standing up to fight for her
...yet somehow Rishi Sunak seemed to forget he sacked Braverman, as when her Rwanda policy was unanimously deemed unlawful by the Supreme Court his response was to bleat about "foreign courts" when the Supreme Court is literally across the road from the Houses of Parliament or, if you prefer, less than ten minutes walk from Downing Street
It's quite hilarious seeing billionaire manchild Elon Musk talking about how AI is the greatest threat to humanity as if AI doesn't make up the majority of his Twitter followers at this point, but then he went and showed what the actual threat to humanity by showing up on Joe Rogan's podcast a few hours later to spout all manner of medically illiterate bilge about how ventilators were the true cause of death during the worst of the Covid pandemic
...and then billionaire manchild Elon Musk treated us to another one of his genius ideas, one which would definitely get Twitter's revenues back up: reinstating the accounts of Tommy Robinson and Katie Hopkins, because the Freeze Peach absolutist didn't reinstate them the second he got his feet under the desk and hopes nobody would notice there were lines he wouldn't cross until he went full fash
...and then billionaire manchild Elon Musk decided that he would congratulate stochastic terrorist Chaya Raichik when Raichik posted a photo of her posting with the USA Today front page stating that whenever she tweets something bomb threats inevitably follow, because apparently it's normal to congratulate somebody revelling in their being identified as a terror threat
...but because billionaire manchild Elon Musk is just that pathetic, it emerged that billionaire manchild Elon Musk programmed his own AI program - remember, this is the same person saying that AI is a threat to mankind - to say that he is the greatest memelord, which any psychiatrist would suggest is making their job too obvious
...and then billionaire manchild Elon Musk banned the Twitter account that was an AI bot making Junlper posts, no doubt steamed both by the fact an AI bot of someone he banned from his Freeze Peach platform where comedy is legal for making a joke about him, and because that AI was far less cringe than creating one to say the one thing nobody has ever said about Elon Musk: he is funny
...but because billionaire manchild Elon Musk cannot help by demonstrate why he needs to pay an AI to agree with him, he then responded to an antisemitic tweet directly by saying "You have said the actual truth" while also accusing the Anti Defamation League of "pushing anti-white racism" because apparently the best way to combat the ADL accounting for the casual racism and antisemitism on Twitter ever since the billionaire manchild bought the platform is to prove their point by endorsing and indulging in antisemitism
...remember how billionaire manchild Elon Musk also has a car company? Well he then demonstrated how committed to Freeze Peach he is by sneaking a clause into the contract of every Cybertruck sale saying that if anyone tries to sell theirs within a year of buying it they will get sued for it
...and then billionaire manchild Elon Musk tweeted a thinly-veiled threat about graves of his enemies, and by "thinly-veiled threat" I mean "twelve year-old talking like Sephiroth thinking that it makes them sound cool and edgy"
...but wait, billionaire manchild Elon Musk had even more material to sustain his perpetual case of Main Character Syndrome, and that material was...a meme about Pizzagate, as if that hadn't been debunked as hard as the legitimacy of his follower account years ago
...yet there was still time for billionaire manchild Elon Musk to show the world how fucking cool and edgy he is by literally saying "Go fuck yourself" to a social media platform overrun by racism and homophobia while the owner of the platform signal boosts all manner of antisemitic and Islamophobic conspiracy theories
Of all the lines that Lahav Harkov could have chosen to try and justify everything Netanhayu and the IDF are doing in Palestine, her claiming that they are aiming to "denazify" Palestine is easily the worst line to take what with that being the exact same line Putin and his stooges used and continue to use in order to justify attacking Ukraine last year, because that makes it a little too obvious
Remember last month when Rachel Riley swiftly deleted a tweet where she inadvertently compared Jews Against Genocide to Nazis? Well she decided to double down on it after all, accusing them of trying to "kosherise" pro-Palestinian sentiment which definitely does not sound like she is invoking the highly antisemitic trop of "the wrong kind of Jew"
So now we have proven liar Boris Johnson jetting off to Israel to state that the British public stands in solidarity with the bombers of hospitals, ambulances and refugee camps, in spite being in no position to say this due to not being a minister of even an MP as well as the hard to ignore fact that he has previous for jetting off to war zones when trying to avoid enquiries, as he had frequent flyer miles to Ukraine when the Partygate enquiry had him over a barrel - which mainly begs the question who was paying for him to be over there at a time the Covid enquiry is making it plain to see that he was happy to let the bodies pile high
Suffice to say Andrea Jenkyns did not respond to her sacking well, given she immediately sent a No Confidence letter to the 1922 Committee which was riddled with spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors that only served to justify booting her out of the Education Department
...and yet Rishi Sunak can somehow fuck up a reshuffle after kicking out truly toxic indivduals such as Braverman, Jenkyns and Therese Coffey, as he announced Esther McVey as Minister for Common Sense - the same Esther McVey who has hosted a show on GB News for the past three years in spite still being an MP, because nothing says "common sense" like GB News!
The Covid enquiry made it known that Matt Hancock wanted to use the worst of the pandemic to play God, as he wanted to say who would live and who would die - which somehow hasn't come up whenever he appears on yet another celebrity gameshow in the belief he can Ed Balls his image
...the same enquiry also heard that proven liar Boris Johnson was at one point willing to go on national television and be injected with Covid to prove that it was perfectly safe to do so, which in retrospect was a missed opportunity given it also emerged that he did, in spite of numerous lackeys' insistence, say he'd rather the bodies piled high than call another lockdown
Chainsaw-wielding berk Javier Miliei has already started wittering about the Falkland Islands and chatting about military action to reclaim them all while cutting government funding to infrastructure spending, which is sure won't lead to anything unfortunate happening to him sooner rather than later...
Nominative determinism debunker James Cleverley got off to a good start as Home Secretary when he described Stockton North as a shithole, and when trying to deny he called it a shithole first claimed somebody else called Stockton North a shithole before further digging a shithole for himself by trying to say he actually said something about a "ship poll"
Just when you think that Rishi Sunak cannot be any more of a national embarrassment he refuses to meet with Greek PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis due to Mitsotakis saying he wanted the Elgin Marbles returned to Greece, which is really helpful for his tackling of "small boats" by immediately pissing off a key ally in the Mediterranean and further pissing them off by trying to suggest he put a gag order on mentioning the Elgin Marbles when the story was about how Sunak made himself look like a small, petty man
The suddenly ubiquitous Richard Tice decided by to dust off that old George Carlin routine about how the planet actually needs lots of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in order to feed plants, somehow unaware that Carlin's routine was this thing called "satire" and not a symposium on climate science, but no doubt the climate change deniers that donated literally every penny to The Nigel Farage's Ego Party will be happy with Tice being performatively stupid in order to appeal to people whose stupidity is not performative
You have to hand it to Spyglass Media for screwing the pooch so spectacularly when they fired Melissa Barrera from Scream 7 for sharing a Jewish Currents article written by Jewish Raz Sagal which suggests that Israel is committing acts of genocide by accusing her of sharing antisemitic hate speech (for sharing an article from a Jewish publication written by a Jew, for those at home keeping score) - and within 24 hours of Barrera's sacking Jenna Ortega left the project (as nobody believes the official line she suddenly had commitments to Wednesday which were never previously mentioned) meaning half of the core cast was gone because of Spyglass' complete overreaction
In the mind of Susan Hall somebody handing her back her wallet after she dropped it on the Tube, with all the money and other contents still inside when it was handed back to her, is "evidence" of what a lawless hellhole that London has become under Sadiq Khan - and this is why you should vote for her in the London mayoral election, because she assumes that a good deed is obviously proof that somebody stole her property and she should go on LBC and say so at the earliest opportunity. She's the one that Sadiq Khan fears, didn't you know...?
Militant TERF JK Rowling once again did something that wasn't obvious transphobic by calling the trans community "rapist rights activists" which at least can be said is in line with the usual standard of her writing
Once again Warner Bros decide that releasing films which they have spent an enormous amount of money producing is not something a Hollywood studio should be doing, this time junking Coyote vs ACME for a $30m tax writeoff - and then issuing copyright takedowns for any behind the scenes material which was already online, because apparently you can unperson an entire film now
To celebrate N7 Day BioWare took the interesting approach of taking the devs who sued for severance which they have not been paid to court rather than negotiating a settlement, which really holds up well on the day to remember the importance of loyalty to your crew
Purveyors of Freeze Peach GB News demonstrated just how committed they are to the concept of Freeze Peach by throwing Michael Crick off of a panel discussion because he was exercising his right of Freeze Peach during a GB news quote-unquote discussion to criticise the channel
Failed nepo baby Laurence Fox claimed, in court, that if he wasn't accused of racism for repeatedly posting racist things online he could have played Batman, before bleating about his good name being sullied as if he hadn't done that by failing to have an acting career in spite coming from an acting dynasty
I get the feeling that Nadine Dorries would not fare well under cross examination, given it took all of ten seconds in an LBC interview to blurt out the Dr No her utterly dreadful book keeps talking about was Dougie Smith - and as a result now she is running the risk of being sued by Dougie Smith for, among other things, saying he murdered the pet rabbit of an ex-girlfriend's kid brother and nailing its remains to their front door
And the most pathetic excuse goes to Ivanka Trump for trying to get out of testifying against daddy dearest by saying that she should be excused as the date she was slated to testify was during a school week and that would cause disruption. This would be Ivanka Trump who has six nannies and four babysitters on payroll, whose mother in law lives two blocks away, and who regularly has her sister in law babysit her kids when she's galivanting around the globe
...equally pathetic was Eric Trump tweeting an obviously Photoshopped photo of him with Daddy Dearest trying to suggest he and the kids had an inseparable bond...which would mean he wouldn't have to knock up an image on Photoshop to suggest that he was there at one point during any Christmas of their childhoods
Of course Martin Daubney and Ben Leo were both crowing about the record ratings for the first episode of I'm A Celebrity with waffling gargoyle Nigel Farage as an occasional contestant (though he isn't integrating with all Bushtucker Trials after going to another country...), but there was a slight problem: the figures they were quoting was for the 2022 edition of I'm A Celebrity, which were 2.2m higher than this year's, which had the lowest audience for a debut episode since 2002
For some reason Bethesda came to the conclusion that the best way to approach Steam reviews for Starfield suggesting the game is a bit dull is for the Steam account Bethesda use for customer support to start lecturing people for not enjoying their boring game
Noted NFT scammers Bored Ape Yacht Club manged to stage a party which blinded several of those who attended, which is the best way to treat the handful of people who haven't cottoned onto NFTs being a scam created by crypto bros to prop up the scam that is the cryptocurrency market which has been plummeting in value due to scams not being a solid foundation for any kind of market

Rarefilmm finally put this up after I've tried finding this for months.
This is a made-for-TV starring Griffin Dunne and Karen Allen. It's based on the story of Mordechai Vanunu, an Israeli who blew the whistle on his country's nuclear program.
Griffin has the most ridiculous accent in this!
