Archaeological discoveries have shed light on the origins of humanity, revealing that black people were among the first inhabitants of Earth. These early humans were dispersed across various regions, including Africa, America, Asia, Europe, and other parts of the world. However, a closer examination of history uncovers a grim reality—many indigenous black civilizations were tragically annihilated by Caucasian invaders. The extent of this violence amounts to mass murder and genocide by European colonizers. The story of the indigenous "Black" Tasmanian people in Australia is a poignant example. Tasmania, an island slightly larger than West Virginia in the United States, situated 200 miles off the southeast coast of Australia, was once home to these black indigenous people. Archaeological evidence suggests that they migrated to the island via an ancient land bridge connecting Tasmania to the Australian continent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjBUWDpRcSs |

There's a real problem, the epidemic of sad and lonely men. And there's a group of people who have been exploiting them for years, earning 10s of millions of dollars by giving awful advice, sending them down a path of worse and worse life choices. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clKjcyfeask The Red Pill Is Poisoning Your Mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip9FH39iCH4 |

Israel considers plan to resettle Palestinians in Africa – reports Washington has rejected plans for the resettlement as “inflammatory and irresponsible” Officials from Israel are holding clandestine discussions with the Democratic Republic of Congo and other African nations over plans for the resettlement of thousands of Palestinian migrants from Gaza, Israeli media has claimed. Plans for the “voluntary” resettlement of people from the besieged Palestinian enclave to the central African country are “slowly” becoming a key policy of Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition, the Times of Israel reported on Wednesday, citing a senior government source. It added that Israel has held talks with several African countries to determine if they would accept migrants from Gaza. Congo will be willing to take in migrants, and we’re in talks with others,” the news website said, quoting the unnamed official. Last Monday, Netanyahu told a meeting of his Likud party that he is progressing with plans for the migration of Gazans but that “our problem is [finding] countries that are willing to absorb Gazans.” The Democratic Republic of Congo has high levels of poverty and inequality, a report by the World Food Program said, combined with recurring regional conflict and insecurity. The aid organization added that about 52.5% of its 5.5 million population lives below the poverty line. On Tuesday, Washington rejected as “irresponsible” statements from Israeli officials over the proposed resettlement plan, including two who had called for the “voluntary migration” of Palestinians. “The United States rejects recent statements from Israeli Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir advocating for the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said in a Tuesday statement. He added: “The rhetoric is inflammatory and irresponsible.” Smotrich dismissed Washington’s objection on Wednesday, claiming that some 70% of Israelis support the proposal because “two million people [in Gaza] wake up every morning with the desire to destroy the State of Israel.” Netanyahu’s office has previously issued statements to say that Smotrich and Ben Gvir do not represent official government policy over the conflict in Gaza. The plan, though, will be necessary due to the postwar conditions of Gaza when the conflict subsides, Israel’s intelligence minister, Gila Gamliel, said on Tuesday at a conference in the Knesset. “At the end of the war, Hamas rule will collapse. There are no municipal authorities; the civilian population will be entirely dependent on humanitarian aid.” Gamliel added to the Hebrew website Zman Israel that she expects 60% of Gaza’s agricultural land to be transformed into security buffer zones. Israel has conducted prolonged air and ground attacks on the densely-populated Gaza enclave since the October 7 cross-border attack by the Palestinian militant group Hamas. More than 22,000 Palestinians have been killed, health officials say, while close to 1,200 Israelis are believed to have died in the Hamas assault. https://www.rt.com/africa/590090-israeli-congo-gaza-resettle/ |

With net migration at its highest ever level, Sky News can reveal that some foreign students are entering the UK with no intention of leaving. We have spoken to two men who openly admit they exploited the student visa route to get to Britain. It comes as one immigration solicitor revealed the number of calls for help has gone up 50% over the last year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssmXZHpI3Oo |

Maritawana reports on Chinese men are trafficking Malawian girls for marriage due to the shortage of Chinese women in the country. The shortage on Chinese women came from China's one child policy that hurt that birth rates. Parents wanted sons over daughters which created the imbalance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lwsxq1IAxw Cambidian women https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIIRM2x7yyA Pakistani women https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y41D65Q_vkM |

Hamas leaders say that ordinary Gazans should not leave the country's north despite the warning by Israel. But the Hamas leaders themselves live abroad with their families. Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh and his family have been accused of corruption. They reportedly have Turkish passports and businesses around the world. This hypocrisy is prevalent across all militant outfits. Why are their different rules for the leaders and their families? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euzE1FwNQHg |

Glastonbury, was a gas but no laughing matter . Hippy crack - most of us will have seen these cannisters at music festivals or discarded in the park. But there is something weirdly juvenile and a bit skanky, watching a bunch of grown-ups breathing in and out of balloons - trust me. I visited a few events over the summer and thought this drug fad had disappeared - sadly not. I first saw these about 15 years ago at music festivals and raves in the UK, alongside the familiar tell-tale sound of HSSSSSS, as the balloons are filled up. At one Big Chill festival, the HSSSSSS was happening literally metres away from my tent and it basically continued all night. As the weekend advanced, we christened the chief whipper, "Little Pete Doherty" and marveled at his merry men's almost non-stop consumption of balloons. And they seemed to be everywhere, those small little silver cannisters littering the place. While hidden away, in the darker corners of the festival, were bigger medical grade sized cylinders, half-inched from hospitals no doubt. Dished out to the late night wastrels and those chasing the latest high. Let me introduce, if you didn't already know, nitrous oxide. It’s a relatively harmless drug that is also known as “laughing gas” amongst many other monikers - Balloons, Chargers, Hippy Crack, Nos, Noz, Whippits, Nang etc. And when I say relatively safe, it is because dentists and hospitals employ nitrous oxide as an anesthetic. It is the stuff midwives administer during labour. The gas has pain-relieving and anti-anxiety properties. Also it is used in the food industry - sold in these little metal canisters to make whipped cream. The high it produces is mild - the person feels relaxed, giggly, and can create sound and visual distortions - almost immediately. But the high lasts just a couple of minutes. The downsides can be major headaches, it is pretty poor value for money and obviously the effects stop you thinking straight. Aficionados claim it is magical with LSD and mushrooms. Personally for me, it is rubbish, literally. Nitrous oxide is a chemical compound, an oxide of nitrogen with the formula N2O. At room temperature, it is a colourless non-flammable gas, and has a slightly sweet scent and taste. Most of the smaller cannisters are filled under pressure and shipped half way around the world from manufacturers in Taiwan of all places. Of course it is illegal to sell it if you know that its being misused, and falls foul of one of those trading standards regulations. But in reality that has zero effect on availability. You can buy boxes of them in bulk direct from the factory or via the thousands of listings on EBay and Amazon. They get around any hassles by simply adding to their offer, a fairly simple terms and condition statement such as "That you are 18 years of age or older & are buying the product only for its intended catering purpose." Beyond any health impacts are the environmental factors. Each of the cannisters is made of steel and contains 8g of pure nitrous oxide. Most manufacturers anodise each N2O charger cannister to protect against corrosion. However, despite being made from steel they're not very recyclable. I didn't realise this until I was doing a little research for this article - just one unopened canister will actually cause an explosion powerful enough to break expensive crushing technology at a recycling centre. The amount of energy and raw materials used in creating the canisters, for only one purpose, totally breaks any idea of a circular economy. Also as well, its not just steel going to waste, they are also anodised or galvanised, which means they're coated in zinc to prevent them rusting. And that mineral often ends up in landfill as well. This galvanisation process means that it takes much longer for any cannisters lost in mud or trodden into the ground to rust away - the experts suggest perhaps as long as 60 years to disintegrate. Of course the eight grams of CO2 in the cannisters return to the atmosphere. Which replace the original eight grams of CO2 that were captured in the production of the carbon dioxide. So it could be argued that the carbon foot is neutral, but that doesn't consider the manufacture, transport or disposal carbon costs. That calculation is beyond me, but I think it is obvious the use of these cannisters and gas isn't kind to the environment and creates more carbon greenhouse gas emissions, even if they are recycled. Music festivals in particular have made efforts recently to reduce usage at events. Most ban them alongside a range of other items. However usage is still widespread - my images are from Glastonbury this year, 2022. Glastonbury Festival is proud of their environmental credentials. For example in 2019 they banned the sale of single-use plastic drinks bottles. The festival, which attracts around 200,000 people, sold more than a million plastic bottles in 2017. By stopping plastic from being purchased in any bars, shops, or backstage areas, the organisers reduced the numbers sold from more than a million plastic bottles in 2017 to zero in 2019. Which is great news. But as the images show, these cannisters are still being used and discarded is massive amounts. https://www.djcdesign.co.uk/blog/laughing-gas-cannisters-waste-litter.htm |
