Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.

And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.

In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

offsite link Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Sat Nov 01, 2025 00:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.

Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.

In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.

Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

offsite link Top Scientists Confirm Covid Shots Cause Heart Attacks in Children Sun Oct 05, 2025 21:31 | imc
A comprehensive study by leading pediatric scientists has confirmed that the devastating surge in heart failure among children is caused by Covid mRNA shots.

The peer-reviewed study, published in the prestigious journal Med, was conducted by scientists at the University of Hong Kong.

The team, led by Dr. Hing Wai Tsang, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, the University of Hong Kong, uncovered evidence to confirm that Natural Killer (NK) cell activation by Covid mRNA injections causes the pathogenesis of acute myocarditis.

Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that restricts the body?s ability to pump blood.

AFA remodel fascist posters using Bobby Sands imagery

category national | history and heritage | news report author Saturday May 07, 2011 11:58author by Bernardo - Anti - Fascist Action Report this post to the editors

Today, members and supporters of Anti - Fascist action remodeled posters that were put around Dublin city centre, by a tiny far-right Autonomous Nationalist group, to mark the 30th anniversary of Bobby Sands' death.

This has been the latest attempt by far right groups to use Irish Republican imagery, particularly Bobby Sands, to promote their own agenda.

Late last year, the Italian far right group 'C*** P****' were condemned by Sinn Fein and the Bobby Sands trust for misappropriating the name and image of Bobby Sands.

Irish Republican socialists have a long and distinguished history of being at the forefront of anti-fascist struggle in Ireland, the UK and the rest of the world. Long may it continue. No Pasaran!

Bobby was a committed socialist and internationalist:

‎"It burst forth through pitiful Paris streets, And stormed the old Bastille, And marched upon the serpent’s head, And crushed it ‘neath its heel.
_____
It died in blood on Buffalo Plains, And starved by moons of rain, Its heart was buried in Wounded Knee, But it will come to rise again.
_____
It screamed aloud by Kerry lakes, As it was knelt upon the ground, And it died in great defiance, As they coldly shot it down.
_____
It is found in every light of hope, It knows no bounds nor space, It has risen in red and black and white, It is there in every race."

Well done, this is most commendable. Bobby would be disgusted by the antics of these fascist groups, and their attempt to use republican imagery. This same 'two men and a dog' group have had James Connolly quotes on their site too. Confused kids. Now would be a good time for them to leave the stage.....

..saw them there today alright and the 'identity' thing stuck out to me alright, i thought it strange that any real progressives would focus on that alone. Have to laugh as well, any time real republicans or anti-facists put stuff up they never last. With the new rebranding they look lovely, thanks a lot to those concerned. It would be the ultimate dillema for me if i bumped into them ejits puttin pictures of heroes up but knowin what theyre up to, but after a nice little chat with them i think i would eventually make the right decision and.......

Well done comrades, fascism from it's inception has a long history of political parasitism and these attempts to peddle their filthy agenda by using Bobby Sands memory are a provocative desecration of his memory. The same type of scumbag attacked hunger strikers graves in Belfast a while back.
