” Several sources accused the Iranian government of being behind the assassination .
[ 4 ] Kolahi has been joined @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Idlib jihadis , sent on their way meet Allah by the SAA and its anti-terrorism allies in the battle to rid Syria of Western and Persian Gulf state proxy terrorists .
There is much work still left to do … Jim W. Dean ] Association for defending victims of terrorism ’ s public relation section reported in 17 February that , third session of “ legal capacities in access to justice for victims ” held in Allame Tabatabei University .
University professors and prominent human rights activists , law students and lawyers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As first speaker , Mr. Jafar Kousha , Professor of law in Beheshti University , said : “ When a crime happens the community waits for a good and appropriate response to it , so , no response can bring negative consequences .
We should pay attention to goals , roles and effects of punishments .
In this regard , safeguarding values is the base of punishments and security is the most important value in the society .
So we must oppose anyone who wants to put in danger the security of society.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ about “ non-punishment as a cause of spread of crimes ” added that : goals of punishments are deterrence and compensation and without consistency between crimes and punishments , we face with negative effects .
He continued : “ Our question is that what is the consequences if culprits or someone who put security in danger became unpunished ?
” Professor Kousha said about the case of Hafte Tir terrorist incident in 1981 that in Iran , we have not any criminal code for terrorism and this is a major problem .
Professor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on the necessity of having professional structures and judges and said : the obstacles should be lifted .
Political calculations and relations hinder judicial processes .
Judicial branch is independent .
Our problem is the security and authority of judiciary branch .
If we impose suitable punishments on culprits there will be tranquility in victims and society will be in order and anyone who wants to do terrorist crime will be faced by a powerful judicial process and will be deterred from doing so .
Another speaker in this session was Doctor Zamani @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Allame University .
He talked about international responsibility of the state of Netherlands .
He thanked Association for Defending Victims of Terrorism for its essays to deliver this sort of issues and wished that these actions prevent the victims of Hafte Tir terrorist incident to become forgotten .
Doctor Zamani added : all the victims of Hafte Tir terrorist incident are voiceless .
Netherlands has a powerful judiciary system and bringing its state to the court is very tough goal but we should pay attention to two issues : First , state @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Ali Motamed .
Is there any international commitment for states to investigate about background of whom been accused of terrorism and disapproving asylum for them ?
Do the families of victims , who are present in this session , have the right of pursuing legal process about Hafte Tir terrorist incident in Netherlands ’ judiciary authorities ?
Why the asylum been approved for Ali Motamed ?
Is there any lawsuit in this regard ?
He added : terrorist attacks have public dimension and it is on all states to investigate about it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Netherlands to afford necessary judicial assistance for victims ’ families .
Doctor Zamani in other part of his speech said that : commitment of state is commitment for result and not the commitment to mere a try .
State of Netherlands should act transparent and committed .
Independency of judiciary system should not be a reason for not assigning the judicial procedures to the state as a whole .
State is integrated .
He added : after 2001 we saw a wave of change in the approach of states toward asylum seekers and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should be announced that how Mohammad Reza Kolahi acquired asylum and why his past was unknown for the state of Netherlands .
At the last part of his speech , Mr. Zamani , professor of international law said : traditional principle is that state must avoid in being a base for terrorists or attacking other states .
We don ’ t know that Mr. Kolahi had acquired citizenship or residency .
State of Iran should insist for the truth .
All the states have duty to background check for anyone who wants to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ms. Anicée Van Engeland , a senior lecturer in International Security and Law at Cranfield University , made a video conference .
Her topic was France and its measure to enable victims of terrorism in access to justice .
She said , “ France has been presented a success model when it comes to enabling victims of terrorism accessing to justice .
There is , first of all , a governmental body called the interministerial support unit for victims ( CIAV ) .
That body takes care of everything that ’ s outside @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , psychological support , coverage of medical cost , and access to social benefits .
There are also several associations that are there to support the victims of terrorism.
” The professor of Cranfield University said in another part of her speech , “ The rules also state that protection of victims need to be adequately recognized in the criminal proceeding .
While in France there is no definition of who is a victim of terrorism , per se there is certainly a position that is adequately recognized in criminal proceedings .
Once @ @ @ @ @ @ @ complaint and their complaint is being processed , they can have access to the compensation fund for victims of act of terrorism in other offences .
They will support them with psychological and physical support .
During that time the prosecutor of Paris will start drafting a list of people who have been the victims .
And the victims need to bring evidence that they were actually in the location and they were injured during the terrorist action .
It ’ s extremely important as a lot of people have tried to claim @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pointing out the long procedure of French courts , she said , “ One of the victims had said lodging a complaint is pointless , it just adds one bad thing to another .
They kill you once with the offender , and the justice system doesn ’ t kill you once but a thousand times.
” She added that , but we know also some reports of the people who are accessing to justice .
The next speaker was Dr. Fahim Danesh , a university lecturer and researcher of international , law @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Netherlands which make the country as a symbol of law and justice .
He and stated that , nevertheless , with a thorough and accurate knowledge of the Dutch legal system we can lodge a complaint .
In one part of his speech , he said , “ One of the most important rights of the victims is that they should be recognized .
In international instrument it was emphasized that these people are victims and domestic courts are responsible to recognize them .
Being a victim can be addressed and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ established at the International Criminal Court for supporting victims .
Different states donate a lot of money to this fund and there are plans to normalize the situation of victims.
” He added that one of the main demands of the Hafte Tir victims is that they are recognized .
The international law researcher referred the case of Mothers of Srebrenica who sued the Dutch government and they could eventually obtain compensation from the Dutch government although they faced a lot of problems .
He continued , “ We are in favor of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case be an opportunity .
The Dutch have , in their legal structure , accepted that the families of the victims should be theoretically included .
This entry can be called “ Amicus Curiae ” ( Court Friend ) .
On this basis , we can submit our considerations to the court .
We just have to show that we are neutral and third party and that we are amicus curiae .
The next speaker of the meeting was Dr. Nargesian , the Assistant Prosecutor of International Affairs of Tehran ’ s court @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aspects in the case , such as the absence of a contract between the government of the Netherlands and Iran , as well as passing 38 years of the case made it difficult to address the issue .
“ The 1951 Convention states that terrorist offenders should not be granted asylum ” , he emphasized .
He continued “ We have a legal gap in our country , and terrorism has not been criminalized in our criminal law .
But the Dutch government must be accountable for granting asylum , and we are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The next speaker at the meeting , Dr. Nejandi Manesh , a professor at Faculty of Law and Political Science of Allameh Tabataba ’ i University , said in one part of his speech , “ We demand the Dutch government the right to know the truth .
Why the word “ Martyr ” is written on the tomb of Ali Motamed ?
If the murder was a normal case , why is the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization ’ s ( the Hypocrites ) sign is on his tomb ?
Why the Dutch @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
There were cases in which a person seeking asylum was a driver of a forbidden party who has not been granted asylum .
Why has Mohammad Reza been granted asylum ?
In another part of his speech , Allameh Tabataba ’ i University Professor said : “ Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization was designated as a terrorist group from 2002 to 2009 .
Why no measure was taken regarding the case ?
Removing the group from the terrorist list , must have done with prior consent of the victims .
Perhaps the lawsuit against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country ’ s judiciary , and all of these require the right question and what answer we are looking for.
” Dr. Nezhandi Manesh , spoke about the grief of Mr. Pakenjad , son of the martyr of Hafte Tir and said , “ Another right that families have is to find a suitable way to compensation .
Perhaps the bitterest moments I met was when Mr. Pakenjad was talking near the grave of his father and uncle ’ s killer .
It was very heartbreaking .
In the end , he expressed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , regardless of political discussions , the issue of litigation of the victims of the Hafte Tir bombing would be brought before the Dutch court and the victims get the desired result .
After discussing the legal issues , the families of the martyrs of Hafte Tir bombing expressed a part of their sufferings which still continue after many years .
They urged the legal authorities and the attendees to pursue this issue diligently so that the desired result in the punishment of offenders can be achieved and the truth about the incident @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the meeting , Ms. Arjang , M.Sc .
Student of International Law at Allameh Tabataba ’ i University , discussed the role and status of the United Nations in accessing justice for victims of terrorism .
At the same time , the exhibition “ Who is Ali Motamed ?
” was held and welcomed by visitors and students .

More background on the attack
June 28, 2017 (Persian calendar 1396/4/7) On 28 June 1981 the Hafte tir bombing occurred killing the chief justice and party secretary Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, four cabinet ministers (Health, transport, telecommunications and energy ministers), twenty-seven members of the Majlis, including Mohammad Montazeri, and several other government officials.
Khomeini accused the PMOI to be responsible and, according to BBC journalist Baqer Moin, the Mujahedin were “generally perceived as the culprits” for the bombing in Iran. The Mujahedin never publicly confirmed or denied any responsibility for the deed, but stated the attack was ‘a natural and necessary reaction to the regime’s atrocities.’
The bomber was identified as a young student and Mujahedin operative by the name of Mohammad Reza Kolahi, who had secured a job in the building disguised as a sound engineer. He was never found and no group or person has ever accepted the responsibility or been put on trial for this bombing.
This has led to conspiracy theories by some who claim that the bombing was motivated by an internal power struggle and perpetrated by a faction within the Iranian ruling party. IRP was eventually dissolved because of these polarizations. Another conspiracy theory maintains that only state-backed organizations could ever acquire such a powerful bomb and points the finger at Israel’s Mossad.
Assassinations of “leading officials and active supporters of the regime by the Mujahedin were to continue for the next year or two,” though they failed to overthrow the government. Two months after Hafte tir on August 30, another bomb was detonated killing the President Rajai and Premier Mohammad Javad Bahonar.
An active member of the Mujahedin, Massoud Kashmiri, was identified as the perpetrator, and according to reports came close to killing the entire government including Khomeini. The reaction following both bombings was intense with many arrests and executions of Mujahedin and other leftist groups.
To commemorate the event several public places in Iran including major squares in Tehran and other cities are named “Hafte Tir”.

On the morning of February 11, Syrian opposition forces supported by Turkey launched large-scale attacks on Syrian government troops, particularly on Saraqib and the Nayrab settlement. The fighting also involved supporters of the Jabhat al-Nusra terror group (outlawed in Russia). Syrian troops thwarted the attacks, while militants suffered substantial losses.

veteranstoday--2020-02-23--Philip Haney, Israeli operative, fake whistleblower and Deep State shill kills himself

Who was this guy ?
First of all , he wasn ’ t a whistleblower .
Haney pushed coverups of @ @ @ @ @ rendition and blew the whistle on real whistleblowers .
Haney was a snitch and backstabber @ @ @ @ @ surveillance , of racism , of zionism and bigotry .
Haney made things up , @ @ @ @ @ and was a shameless self promoter and fabricationist .
Do this , find every site @ @ @ @ @ Obama whistleblower ” and you will find the organs of disinformation of the Deep State @ @ @ @ @ at all and now he is gone but someone needs to be sure .
Things @ @ @ @ @ the dead .
I might suggest ways of dealing with this , starting with an @ @ @ @ @ .

Who was this Philip Haney guy?
First of all, he wasn’t a whistleblower. Haney pushed coverups of 9/11, of torture and rendition and blew the whistle on real whistleblowers. Haney was a snitch and backstabber, an advocate of mass surveillance, of racism, of Zionism and bigotry.
Haney made things up, published them through despicable zio-rags and was a shameless self-promoter and fabrications.
He killed himself. He won’t be missed.
Do this, find every site that calls him an “Obama whistleblower” and you will find the organs of the disinformation of the Deep State. He was no one at all and now he is gone but someone needs to be sure. Things like this sometimes return from the dead. I might suggest ways of dealing with this, starting with an extremely deep burial after incineration. Holy water might work.


Not Guilty!

Finally !
The impeachment nonsense is over and President Trump has been triumphantly acquitted .
Like the Russia collusion hoax it has been a politically motivated nonsense from beginning to end .
The Democrats have made themselves look like idiots .
Not being able to count the votes in their primaries hasn ’ t helped .
Not content with one Russia hoax the CIA are now trying another .
Why doesn ’ t John Brennan just enter the Democratic primaries ?
I appreciate that the impeachment acquittal is now old news , but I have been battling with the Solicitors @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cabinet Office and have banned me from working for solicitors .
It ’ s not always possible to get my column out each week .
By the way , since my livelihood is under continual attack all reasonable offers will be considered !
I ’ ve had to put up with all sorts of nonsense since I discovered the existence of the DVD , something the Germans were no doubt hoping to keep secret for the rest of the century .
Just earning a living means overcoming one obstacle after another .
Shrimpton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and is looking for more .
Once you try smart you ’ ll never go back !
The Senate trial was something of formality , but since there was no case to answer that was just about inevitable .
The Democrats had enough leverage on Mitt Romney to get him to cross the aisle , but they were no other defectors .
There was an amusing moment during the trial when one British newspaper reported that two “ Republicans ” might vote against the President .
It turned out that they were only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ !
The paper hadn ’ t heard that they were RINOs .
To describe either as a ‘ Republican ’ is laughable , frankly .
They probably voted for Senator Clinton in 2016 .
I have no sympathy whatsoever for Lt-Col Vindman .
He chose to involve himself in a coup against an elected president and failed .
His role in relation to the Ukraine is highly suspicious , ditto that of the National Security Council , a.k.a .
the CIA .
The NSC has been pursuing German strategic objectives for years .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ misfortune to deal with the NSC I should explain that its role is to hold vital information back from the President , produce misleading intelligence forecasts and do its best to ensure that America , like Britain , staggers blindly from one disaster to the next .
Speaking of disasters this one looks like a ChiCom home-grown one .
I freely confess that I owe an apology to that nice lady Kerry Cassidy .
I was initially dismissive of reports that COVID-19 ( strictly the name for the disease – the virus itself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , partly because neither you guys nor ourselves go in for biological warfare attacks .
Bugs are just not a Good Guy thing .
I was also off-put by the theory that the Chinese government wanted to cull their own population .
They ’ ve gone in for mass-murder before , indeed they shot down MH-370 and helped the Ukrainians shoot down MH-17 , but the world rate of population growth is slowing down .
Planetary population is expected to stabilise by about 2075 .
There will be plenty of food , water @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about over-population is for neurotics , Sir David Attenborough and journalists , or should I say ‘ Sir David Attenborough , journalists and other neurotics ’ ?
Then I learnt about the Wuhan Institute of Virology , which up till now has not been on my radar .
Turns out it ’ s a Level 4 facility with lousy security and is China ’ s main biological warfare center .
It has also emerged that they were working on Coronavirus , in bats , in particular from the family Pteropodidae , a.k.a .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Then we had the strange case of the dead Canadian virologist , Frank Plummer , who seems to have been murdered in Nairobi on or about February 3rd .
He wasn ’ t the first doctor to die in suspicious circumstances since the outbreak began – Dr Li Wenliang , who first blew the whistle on COVID-19 , sadly died on or about February 7th .
I have no doubt that he died , as announced , of COVID-19 .
Given that the virus has a low lethality and is mostly killing off @ @ @ @ @ @ @ issues like diabetes or a compromised cardio-vascular system , Dr Wenliang ’ s death was comparatively unexpected .
If he knew about the release of the virus from WIV then Chinese internal intelligence most certainly would have a motive for bumping him off .
Given that he had already caught the virus giving him a ‘ booster shot ’ was an obvious way of eliminating him .
No journalist would ever suspect a thing , not that pulling the wool over journalists ’ eyes has ever been that difficult , no offense intended @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down in the Indian Ocean , for heaven ’ s sake !
As presently advised it looks as though COVID-19 is a Chinese biowep , over which they lost control .
It ’ s arguably the biggest own-goal since Lee Dixon chipped a back pass into the Arsenal goal against Coventry in 1991 .
( He felt badly about it , but at least he didn ’ t kill thousands of people . )
Exactly how the virus ended up in the live animal market in Wuhan is unclear , but there are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fly after all , and if you ’ re a bat I would advise against flying to China , else you mind end up on the menu .
I ’ m discounting a deliberate release at the moment .
If new information emerges then of course I may revise my opinion , but I can ’ t see anybody with both the motive and the means to organise this .
You can forget CIA or MI6 – both agencies are so heavily compromised by Jerry that any black op would have been betrayed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never mind got near a Chinese bat .
Mossad have hardly any presence in China at all , besides they ’ re far too nice for an op like this .
Mossad are quite cuddly really , unless you happen to be a Hezbollah terrorist or another species of scumbag .
No , this looks like an accidental release .
Containment is one of the biggest issues with biological weapons development .
Losing control and killing your own side on an industrial scale is one of the more powerful arguments against having these @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the gloomier estimates of a worldwide pandemic .
The ChiComs are starting to exert control and the rate of growth of new cases appears to be slowing .
I would however put a marker against the official lethality rate of around 2.4 % .
There are reports of heat signatures and atmospheric data in China consistent with large-scale cremations .
There ’ s more going on in Huabei Province than the Chinese are prepared to admit , although it may just be infected animal carcasses going up in smoke .
As presently advised @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we will see large-scale deaths in China , South Korea and Japan only , with most of the deaths occurring in China .
There will be some deaths in the West , indeed the Chinese managed to knock over a few Italians over the weekend , but not that many .
If the virus hits Africa in any numbers there may be trouble , however .
Yes , absolutely .
That ’ s why we ’ ve had so many cases aboard MV Diamond Princess .
Passengers were confined to their cabins and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Effectively they turned a modern cruise-liner into a plague ship .
This is the danger of acting on faulty intelligence , in this case by buying into the Chinese and WHO version of events .
Airborne and asymptomatic transmission are indices of weaponization .
These are the two factors which make COVID-19 particularly dangerous .
In my opinion the widely-adopted 14 day quarantine period is too short .
I would go for 28 days .
The West needs to be particularly careful about admitting Chinese nationals .
One idiot Chinese woman , assuming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ agent spreading the virus deliberately , got on a plane ( how ? )
with flu-like symptoms then apparently booked a Uber taxi and headed straight to Lewisham hospital in south-east London .
That was ridiculous .
Limiting the entry of Chinese nationals and banning flights to China will harm the Chinese economy but this is something the ChiComs have brought upon themselves .
They wanted thousands of deaths in the West .
Instead they ’ ve got them in China .
Tough .
As predicted , poor old Boris Johnson is running @ @ @ @ @ @ @ great campaigner , but he can ’ t deliver .
Not firing Kabinettratsführer ‘ von ’ Sedwill after the General Election was a huge mistake , which may yet cost Boris the premiership .
‘ Von ’ Sedwill is waging war on the government and winning .
Ministers are starting to look like house-trained idiots .
The hapless new Environment Secretary , George Eustice , doubtless soon to be known as ‘ Useless Eustice ’ is presiding over a series of disastrous floods .
I should explain that whilst government policy is to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cause them , the idea being to generate maximum distress and economic disruption .
It also makes the Tories look stupid .
It ’ s all done through control of the rivers .
This was centralised some years ago in the Environment Agency , which then cut back on dredging .
This caused the rivers to silt up , hence the floods , which the Environment Agency then blames on ‘ global warming ’ , like the planet is hotting up .
Government ministers promise to do something after each lot of floods @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can be done .
This isn ’ t Cabinet government , it ’ s Cabinet Office government .
Since the Cabinet Office is effectively part of the German government , not the British , because of penetration by Germany ’ s covert GO2 intelligence agency , it means that Britain is largely being run from Germany .
Brexit has only solved part of the problem – we need to shut down G02 and the German eavesdropping center in London .
With a Cabinet so ill-informed that not a single member apparently realises that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are available to the German government sorting this mess out isn ’ t going to be easy .
The PM is clearly compromised , no offense intended .
As word spreads throughout the Tory Party that nothing can be done whilst ‘ von ’ Sedwill is Cabinet Secretary and he can ’ t be fired so long as Boris Johnson is Prime Minister so the latter ’ s position will be undermined .
He won ’ t go this year , and he ’ ll be patted on the back rather than stabbed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
He can win elections alright , but sadly he can ’ t do anything with the win .
The PM ’ s problems were underlined with his first reshuffle , which saw him lose his Chancellor .
Generally speaking Chancellors of the Exchequer last longer than six months in office .
Indeed Sajid Javid was the shortest-serving Chancellor since the late Iain Macleod , assassinated in July 1970 by GO2 on Prime Minister Edward Heath ’ s orders in order to help force Germany ’ s conditions of EEC entry onto Britain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Boris Johnson is a nice chap ( we ’ ve met ) and unlike Heath doesn ’ t go in for assassinations .
Even if he did , GO2 wouldn ’ t work for him as he ’ s not a German asset , unlike the Oberstleutnant .
The problem with Sajid Javid was that he ’ d become house-trained , to the point where he swallowed Treasury advice that raising tax rates increases tax revenues .
Once Chancellors fall for that old nostrum you may as well take ‘ em out @ @ @ @ @ @ @ course .
Like rabid dogs they ’ re no longer any use to anyone .
As if he doesn ’ t have enough problems the PM allowed himself to be bullied by ‘ von ’ Sedwill into building a silly high-speed railroad line , called HS2 , which will go from Old Oak Common in the west of London to a long-abandoned station called Curzon St in Birmingham , which last saw a scheduled passenger train in 1854 .
The time saved on the train will be lost in getting to and from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ passengers will be lucky to find it .
HS2 is bitterly opposed by many Tories and rightly so .
It ’ s also opposed by the PM ’ s chief adviser Dominic Cummings , who ’ s highly intelligent and therefore the subject of a Civil Service whispering campaign .
( Civil servants tend to give dumb advice , ministers , being elected , are almost by definition dumb and the last thing any civil servant wants is for their dumb advice to be scrutinised by an intelligent adviser . )
MPs all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looking for a new leader before long .
Thankfully , if the idiot scheme is stopped before the end of next year the damage won ’ t be too great .
The HS2 project has been tainted by fraud and corruption from the beginning .
In a classic example of Civil Service deception the costs of the scheme were grossly understated , sucking people into supporting it .
The potential income was then exaggerated by using an unattainable number of trains per hour .
HS2 will absorb cash which could much better be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ underway the answer to every infrastructure proposal will be ‘ HS2 has priority.
’ The Civil Service will do its best to neuter the manifesto promise to reopen the Beeching lines , inflating costs estimates and exaggerating the difficulties .
I predict that no more than 25 miles of lines will have been reopened by the next election .
The fraudulent methods used to close the lines in the first place did huge damage to the credibility of nationalised British Railways and the Civil Service .
On the Buntingford branch BR laid off @ @ @ @ @ @ @ measure in an effort to cut costs .
In 1964 , in order to show that that the line was running at a loss , BR included the wages of the men it had made redundant four years before ( Welbourn , Nigel , Railway Treasures , Manchester : Crecy Publishing , 2018 , p.101 ) .
That ’ s just one example – the fraud was blatant , deliberate and widespread .
Not being a house-trained idiot the able and highly competent Home Secretary , Priti Patel , has some in for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her controversial Permanent Secretary , Sir Philip Rutnam .
Known to be close to the Cabinet Office Sir Philip was the mastermind of the Home Office ’ s Windrush strategy , but remained in post , probably because the Home Office strategy had been agreed with the Cabinet Office , when Amber Rudd was forced to resign .
Almost unknown in the States , Caroline Flack was a prominent reality TV host in Britain .
Sweet but somewhat unstable , sadly , she decided on 12th December to have a peek at her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was asleep .
This is rarely a good idea , although it doesn ’ t usually have fatal consequences .
Caroline convinced herself that the new boyfriend was cheating on her , which he probably wasn ’ t .
There was a row , she ended up cutting her wrists and the police were called .
On 13th December she was charged with common assault , a summary offense , which meant no jury trial and the almost certain prospect of conviction .
( Magistrates ’ courts rarely acquit – I think the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ court was in 1964 . )
Last Saturday the deeply corrupt Crown Prosecution Service , which reports to the Cabinet Office but fraudulently claims to be ‘ independent ’ , told Caroline ’ s lawyers that her trial was going ahead .
This was despite the alleged victim , her boyfriend , having pulled out .
He was clearly a key prosecution witness .
The CPS were no doubt banking on the well-known propensity of magistrates ’ courts to convict regardless of the evidence , as happened in my case , no offense @ @ @ @ @ @ @ case in the full knowledge that the defendant had mental health issues , was highly vulnerable and on the verge of suicide .
In American tort lawyers ’ terms this was the intentional infliction of emotional distress .
Sadly but predictably , terrified at the prospect of the two upcoming trials , one by the District Judge at Highbury Corner Mags and the other by the media , Caroline hanged herself , within hours of receiving the dreadful news .
Hopefully the coroner will convene a jury , who may well have some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the CPS .
Whitehall is doing its best to hush the scandal up , but the future of the CPS is now on the line .
The decision to prosecute Caroline Flack was unjustified and brutal in that it risked serious , foreseeable harm .
The CPS wanted a trophy conviction and were willing to risk human life in order to get it .
Caroline ’ s blood is on their hands .
Ironically the CPS and the judiciary , who went along with this tragic farce , are opposed to capital @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for common assault .
Consistent with the organisation being under ultimate German control , given GO2 ’ s stranglehold over the Cabinet Office , the CPS are conducting criminal prosecutions in a manner which would not have looked out of place in the Third Reich or the Soviet Union .
Not even the half-crazed Department of Justice are as brutal and callous .
In the name of Caroline Flack the CPS must be hammered to organisational destruction .
In going after them we should take inspiration from RAF Bomber Command and US 8th @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between them so brilliantly blew Dresden apart 75 years ago this month , inflicting such a crushing blow on the mortal German enemy that our community partner Dr Goebbels wept when he heard the news .
There ’ s only one way to combat evil and that is to hit it and keep hitting it .
If the above seems harsh I should perhaps explain that in 8 years of dealing with the CPS over my two cases I have yet to encounter a single official who has shown even the slightest interest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They had their orders and they carried them out , with the fanaticism of a concentration camp commandant .
This great actor has sadly passed since my last column .
Hugely popular in the UK he was one of the finest actors of his generation .
His first movie was in 1946 , his last in in 2008 , some years after a debilitating stroke which would have finished off a lesser man .
Kirk Douglas is perhaps best known for Spartacus ( 1960 ) , but he had a wide range @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fine performances .
My personal favorite is Heroes of Telemark ( 1965 ) , where he played Dr Rolf Pedersen .
Set in Norway in World War II it ’ s probably the finest movie ever made about any of the European resistance movements .
By all accounts he was not an easy man to get along with , but whenever I hear that I always wonder how hard people tried ?
This is a man who left his entire fortune , the best part of $ 100 million , to charity .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ lesser talents got jealous and some of them probably got mean-spirited with it .
When you get to work with a human being as brilliant as Kirk Douglas just accept that it ’ s a privilege and try and learn something .
He was an actor for the ages .
He was good enough to stand out in any era and his movies will be watched with enjoyment and talked about for centuries to come .
We ’ ll miss him .
At least we can be thankful that some of that tremendous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Like the Russia collusion hoax, it has been politically motivated nonsense from beginning to end. The Democrats have made themselves look like idiots. Not being able to count the votes in their primaries hasn’t helped. Not content with one Russia hoax, the CIA is now trying another. Why doesn’t John Brennan just enter the Democratic primaries?
I appreciate that the impeachment acquittal is now old news, but I have been battling with the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who report to the Cabinet Office and have banned me from working for solicitors. It’s not always possible to get my column out each week. By the way, since my livelihood is under continual attack all reasonable offers will be considered!
I’ve had to put up with all sorts of nonsense since I discovered the existence of the DVD, something the Germans were no doubt hoping to keep secret for the rest of the century. Just earning a living means overcoming one obstacle after another. Shrimpton & Associates has just acquired one client and is looking for more. Once you try smart you’ll never go back!
The Senate trial was something of a formality, but since there was no case to answer that was just about inevitable. The Democrats had enough leverage on Mitt Romney to get him to cross the aisle, but they were no other defectors. There was an amusing moment during the trial when one British newspaper reported that two “Republicans” might vote against the President. It turned out that they were only referring to Mitt Romney and Susan Collins! The paper hadn’t heard that they were RINOs. To describe either as a ‘Republican’ is laughable, frankly. They probably voted for Senator Clinton in 2016.
I have no sympathy whatsoever for Lt-Col Vindman. He chose to involve himself in a coup against an elected president and failed. His role in relation to Ukraine is highly suspicious, ditto that of the National Security Council, a.k.a. the CIA. The NSC has been pursuing German strategic objectives for years.
For those who have not had the misfortune to deal with the NSC, I should explain that its role is to hold vital information back from the President, produce misleading intelligence forecasts and do its best to ensure that America, like Britain, staggers blindly from one disaster to the next.
COVID-19
Speaking of disasters this one looks like a ChiCom home-grown one. I freely confess that I owe an apology to that nice lady Kerry Cassidy. I was initially dismissive of reports that COVID-19 (strictly the name for the disease – the virus itself is called SARS-CoV-2) was a bioweapon, partly because neither you guys nor ourselves go in for biological warfare attacks. Bugs are just not a Good Guy thing. I was also off-put by the theory that the Chinese government wanted to cull their own population.
They’ve gone in for mass-murder before, indeed they shot down MH-370 and helped the Ukrainians shoot down MH-17, but the world rate of population growth is slowing down. The planetary population is expected to stabilise by about 2075. There will be plenty of food, water and raw materials for everyone. Concern about overpopulation is for neurotics, Sir David Attenborough and journalists, or should I say ‘Sir David Attenborough, journalists, and other neurotics’?
Then I learned about the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which up till now has not been on my radar. Turns out it’s a Level 4 facility with lousy security and is China’s main biological warfare center. It has also emerged that they were working on Coronavirus, in bats, in particular from the family Pteropodidae, a.k.a. your friendly fruit bat. Whoops.
Then we had the strange case of the dead Canadian virologist, Frank Plummer, who seems to have been murdered in Nairobi on or about February 3rd. He wasn’t the first doctor to die in suspicious circumstances since the outbreak began – Dr. Li Wenliang, who first blew the whistle on COVID-19, sadly died on or about February 7th.
I have no doubt that he died, as announced, of COVID-19. Given that the virus has a low lethality and is mostly killing off the elderly or those with underlying health issues like diabetes or a compromised cardiovascular system, Dr. Wenliang’s death was comparatively unexpected. If he knew about the release of the virus from WIV then Chinese internal intelligence most certainly would have a motive for bumping him off.
Given that he had already caught the virus giving him a ‘booster shot’ was an obvious way of eliminating him. No journalist would ever suspect a thing, not that pulling the wool over journalists’ eyes has ever been that difficult, no offense intended. They still think that MH-370 went down in the Indian Ocean, for heaven’s sake!
As presently advised it looks as though COVID-19 is a Chinese biowep, over which they lost control. It’s arguably the biggest own-goal since Lee Dixon chipped a back pass into the Arsenal goal against Coventry in 1991. (He felt bad about it, but at least he didn’t kill thousands of people.) Exactly how the virus ended up in the live animal market in Wuhan is unclear, but there are a number of possibilities. Bats can fly after all, and if you’re a bat I would advise against flying to China, else your mind end up on the menu.
I’m discounting a deliberate release at the moment. If new information emerges then, of course, I may revise my opinion, but I can’t see anybody with both the motive and the means to organise this. You can forget CIA or MI6 – both agencies are so heavily compromised by Jerry that any black op would have been betrayed before the boys left the ground, never mind got near a Chinese bat.
Mossad have hardly any presence in China at all, besides they’re far too nice for an op like this. Mossad is quite cuddly really unless you happen to be a Hezbollah terrorist or another species of scumbag. No, this looks like an accidental release.
Containment is one of the biggest issues with biological weapons development. Losing control and killing your own side on an industrial scale is one of the more powerful arguments against having these idiotic weapons.
I am not buying the gloomier estimates of a worldwide pandemic. The ChiComs are starting to exert control and the rate of growth of new cases appears to be slowing. I would, however, put a marker against the official lethality rate of around 2.4%. There are reports of heat signatures and atmospheric data in China consistent with large-scale cremations. There’s more going on in Huabei Province than the Chinese are prepared to admit, although it may just be infected animal carcasses going up in smoke.
As presently advised (this may change) I think we will see large-scale deaths in China, South Korea, and Japan only, with most of the deaths occurring in China. There will be some deaths in the West, indeed the Chinese managed to knock over a few Italians over the weekend, but not that many. If the virus hits Africa in any numbers there may be trouble, however.
Is it airborne?
Yes, absolutely. That’s why we’ve had so many cases aboard MV Diamond Princess. Passengers were confined to their cabins and the idiots left the air-conditioning on! Effectively they turned a modern cruise-liner into a plague ship. This is the danger of acting on faulty intelligence, in this case by buying into the Chinese and WHO version of events.
Airborne and asymptomatic transmission are indices of weaponization. These are the two factors that make COVID-19 particularly dangerous. In my opinion the widely-adopted 14 day quarantine period is too short. I would go for 28 days.

Developments in the UK
As predicted, poor old Boris Johnson is running into trouble. He’s a great campaigner, but he can’t deliver. Not firing Kabinettratsführer ‘von’ Sedwill after the General Election was a huge mistake, which may yet cost Boris the premiership. ‘Von’ Sedwill is waging war on the government and winning.

The hapless new Environment Secretary, George Eustice, doubtless soon to be known as ‘Useless Eustice’ is presiding over a series of disastrous floods.

Indeed Sajid Javid was the shortest-serving Chancellor since the late Iain Macleod, assassinated in July 1970 by GO2 on Prime Minister Edward Heath’s orders in order to help force Germany’s conditions of EEC entry onto Britain.
At least Saj is still alive. Boris Johnson is a nice chap (we’ve met) and unlike Heath doesn’t go in for assassinations. Even if he did, GO2 wouldn’t work for him as he’s not a German asset, unlike the Oberstleutnant. The problem with Sajid Javid was that he’d become house-trained, to the point where he swallowed Treasury advice that raising tax rates increases tax revenues. Once Chancellors fall for that old nostrum you may as well take ‘em out and shoot ‘em, nicely of course. Like rabid dogs they’re no longer any use to anyone.
HS2
As if he doesn’t have enough problems the PM allowed himself to be bullied by ‘von’ Sedwill into building a silly high-speed railroad line, called HS2, which will go from Old Oak Common in the west of London to a long-abandoned station called Curzon St in Birmingham, which last saw a scheduled passenger train in 1854. The time saved on the train will be lost in getting to and from Old Oak Common of course, indeed passengers will be lucky to find it.
HS2 is bitterly opposed by many Tories and rightly so.

(Civil servants tend to give dumb advice, ministers, being elected, are almost by definition dumb and the last thing any civil servant wants is for their dumb advice to be scrutinised by an intelligent adviser.)
MPs all along the proposed HS2 route will be looking for a new leader before long. Thankfully, if the idiot scheme is stopped before the end of next year the damage won’t be too great.
The HS2 project has been tainted by fraud and corruption from the beginning. In a classic example of Civil Service deception, the costs of the scheme were grossly understated, sucking people into supporting it.

Once it’s underway the answer to every infrastructure proposal will be ‘HS2 has priority.’ The Civil Service will do its best to neuter the manifesto promise to reopen the Beeching lines, inflating costs estimates and exaggerating the difficulties. I predict that no more than 25 miles of lines will have been reopened by the next election.
The fraudulent methods used to close the lines in the first place did huge damage to the credibility of nationalised British Railways and the Civil Service. On the Buntingford branch, BR laid off six signalmen in 1960 as an economy measure in an effort to cut costs. In 1964, in order to show that that the line was running at a loss, BR included the wages of the men it had made redundant four years before (Welbourn, Nigel, Railway Treasures, Manchester: Crecy Publishing, 2018, p.101). That’s just one example – the fraud was blatant, deliberate and widespread.
Sir Philip Rutnam
Not being a house-trained idiot the able and highly competent Home Secretary, Priti Patel, has come in for a whispering campaign, probably directed by her controversial Permanent Secretary, Sir Philip Rutnam. Known to be close to the Cabinet Office Sir Philip was the mastermind of the Home Office’s Windrush strategy, but remained in post, probably because the Home Office strategy had been agreed with the Cabinet Office when Amber Rudd was forced to resign.
Caroline Flack
Almost unknown in the States, Caroline Flack was a prominent reality TV host in Britain. Sweet but somewhat unstable, sadly, she decided on 12th December to have a peek at her new boyfriend’s smartphone whilst he was asleep. This is rarely a good idea, although it doesn’t usually have fatal consequences.
Caroline convinced herself that the new boyfriend was cheating on her, which he probably wasn’t. There was a row, she ended up cutting her wrists and the police were called. On 13th December she was charged with common assault, a summary offense, which meant no jury trial and the almost certain prospect of conviction. (Magistrates’ courts rarely acquit – I think the last fair trial in a magistrates’ court was in 1964.)
Last Saturday the deeply corrupt Crown Prosecution Service, which reports to the Cabinet Office but fraudulently claims to be ‘independent’, told Caroline’s lawyers that her trial was going ahead. This was despite the alleged victim, her boyfriend, having pulled out. He was clearly a key prosecution witness. The CPS was no doubt banking on the well-known propensity of magistrates’ courts to convict regardless of the evidence, as happened in my case, no offense intended.
The CPS continued with the case in the full knowledge that the defendant had mental health issues, was highly vulnerable and on the verge of suicide. In American tort lawyers’ terms, this was the intentional infliction of emotional distress. Sadly but predictably, terrified at the prospect of the two upcoming trials, one by the District Judge at Highbury Corner Mags and the other by the media, Caroline hanged herself, within hours of receiving the dreadful news.
Hopefully, the coroner will convene a jury, who may well have some harsh words to say about the conduct of the CPS. Whitehall is doing its best to hush the scandal up, but the future of the CPS is now on the line. The decision to prosecute Caroline Flack was unjustified and brutal in that it risked serious, foreseeable harm. The CPS wanted a trophy conviction and were willing to risk human life in order to get it. Caroline’s blood is on their hands.
Ironically the CPS and the judiciary, who went along with this tragic farce, are opposed to capital punishment for murder, but not apparently for common assault. Consistent with the organisation being under ultimate German control, given GO2’s stranglehold over the Cabinet Office, the CPS is conducting criminal prosecutions in a manner that would not have looked out of place in the Third Reich or the Soviet Union. Not even the half-crazed Department of Justice is as brutal and callous.
In the name of Caroline Flack, the CPS must be hammered to organisational destruction. In going after them we should take inspiration from RAF Bomber Command and US 8th Army Air Force Bomber Command, who between them so brilliantly blew Dresden apart 75 years ago this month, inflicting such a crushing blow on the mortal German enemy that our community partner Dr. Goebbels wept when he heard the news. There’s only one way to combat evil and that is to hit it and keep hitting it.
If the above seems harsh I should perhaps explain that in 8 years of dealing with the CPS over my two cases I have yet to encounter a single official who has shown even the slightest interest in whether I was guilty or not. They had their orders and they carried them out, with the fanaticism of a concentration camp commandant.
Kirk Douglas (1916 – 2020)
This great actor has sadly passed since my last column. Hugely popular in the UK he was one of the finest actors of his generation. His first movie was in 1946, his last in 2008, some years after a debilitating stroke which would have finished off a lesser man.
Kirk Douglas is perhaps best known for Spartacus (1960), but he had a wide range as an actor and there were many fine performances. My personal favorite is Heroes of Telemark (1965), where he played Dr. Rolf Pedersen. Set in Norway in World War II it’s probably the finest movie ever made about any of the European resistance movements.
By all accounts he was not an easy man to get along with, but whenever I hear that I always wonder how hard people tried? This is a man who left his entire fortune, the best part of $100 million, to charity. He was a towering talent. Inevitably lesser talents got jealous and some of them probably got mean-spirited with it.
When you get to work with a human being as brilliant as Kirk Douglas just accept that it’s a privilege and try and learn something. He was an actor for the ages. He was good enough to stand out in any era and his movies will be watched with enjoyment and talked about for centuries to come.
We’ll miss him. At least we can be thankful that some of that tremendous talent rubbed off on his son Michael.

Ancient food waste holds the history of the Sahara desert’s climate in its bones. Nearly 5,000 years worth of fossilized leftovers in the Takarkori rock shelter in southwestern Libya show ancient humans’ transition from a mostly-fish diet to one that featured more land animals like sheep and cattle, according to new research published on February 29 in the journal PLOS One.
About 11,000 years ago, the Sahara, which is now a hyperarid desert, was in a green phase. Sediment and pollen data show that the iconic desert was once covered in lakes, rivers, and wetlands, but between 4,500 and 8,000 years ago, the humid savannah transitioned into the dry, windy desert that’s recognizable today. Residing in rock shelters like the one researchers studied at Takarkori, ancient human hunter-gatherers lived through it all.
Researchers from Belgium and Italy analyzed over 17,000 animal remains from the rock shelter. The bones were marked with cuts and burns, signs that they were cooked and eaten by humans.
The researchers found that catfish and tilapia bones made up 90 percent of the finds from the first few thousand years that humans inhabited the shelter, starting about 10,000 years ago. But of the more recent 4,650- to 5,900-year-old remains, only about 40 percent were fish bones…

In the fall of 2019, Dagmar Turner was told that a tumor that had been growing in her brain for years had become large and aggressive—and would require surgery. The mass sat on her right frontal lobe, close to an area that controls the fine movements of the left hand.
The possibility that surgery might damage this part of the brain was a major concern: Turner, a violinist who plays with the Isle of Wight Symphony Orchestra, relies on her left hand to regulate the lengths of the instrument’s strings, thereby producing different pitches.
Fortunately, the patient had an idea.
“I suggested, actually, if they want me to play the violin during the surgery,” she tells ITV News.
This week, King’s College Hospital in London, where the surgery was performed, released remarkable footage from the operating room. As doctors work behind a plastic sheet, Dagmar, lying on the operating table, performs melodies on her violin. Over the course of the procedure, she played music by Gustav Mahler, George Gershwin and the Spanish singer-songwriter Julio Iglesias, reports Guy Faulconbridge for Reuters.

Powerful weapons are artificially induced hurricanes and tsunamis. There is evidence that in the 1950s, the Soviet Union considered the possibility of flooding the coastal cities of the US east coast using an artificial tsunami.
The idea belonged to the young nuclear physicist Andrei Sakharov.
He believed that having blown up a thermonuclear charge of enormous power underwater, a wave with a height of more than 300 m would fall upon New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and Annapolis.
In this case, the wave will hide the roofs of skyscrapers. According to calculations, one wave is enough to completely wash off the low-lying Houston and New Orleans on the Gulf of Mexico.
It should be noted that New Orleans, indeed, was flooded by a powerful hurricane at the beginning of the two thousandths.
