There is no doubt about it that religion and spirituality are under attack and the pressure has been massively increased on the back of the Covid Scamdemic. The level of suppression and repression now in force against the church has not been seen here for centuries. The irony is that the church hierarchy are largely going along with it. The attack on spirituality is a bit harder to discern but it is there and part of the wider trend. Overall what appears to be going on is the corporate takeover of society and that is the new religion and it is intolerant of any other belief systems. This is a characteristic of all totalitarian systems. They want you to transfer any beliefs you have to them. During the worst periods of the USSR we saw churches burned or closed down and all religious practice suppressed. Similar things happened during the Chinese cultural revolution. What it represents is a demand to turn towards the reigning power and an insistence that this is the only belief system. What the socialist revolution was promising was salvation through socialist organisation of society and by directing the productive forces to the benefit of all peoples, in effect creating heaven on Earth. It didn't quite turn out that way for various reasons. Now the corporate regime is trying the same without the promises Related Links: WATCH: Minister Arrested during Sunday Service by Gardai | WATCH: Three Mass-goers arrested outside Waterford cathedral | Councillor slammed for calling religious procession ‘far right’ | The law is an ass when it comes to Mass | Tensions grow during Holy Week as priest takes a stand | Irish priest fined €500 for saying Mass with parishioners present says he will continue to 'exercise my constitutional right' | BREAKING: Police raid Canadian church for defying COVID orders, erect barricade blocking entrance | GraceLife Becomes the First Church in Canada Forced Underground As Hundreds of Cops Continue to Guard Their Building | Furious Catholic church condemns cops for 'brutally exceeding their powers' after officers burst into London Easter service and shut it down - even though indoor worship IS allowed under Covid rules | British Police RAID Good Friday Liturgy and Hijack Altar | Police take license numbers, issue notices as Kentucky church holds in-person Easter service | California pastor cited for hiding congregants on Easter Sunday says church has right to assemble

As predictions for the death toll from the Haitian earthquakes rise over 200,000, ABC News have reported that planes carrying medical equipment and relief supplies are having to compete with soldiers for the valuable slots at Port-au-Prince airport which was taken over by the US military after the quake. Since the start of the great anti-slavery republican insurrection nearly 220 years ago, Haiti has been presented as a dangerous place incapable of running its own affairs and requiring foreign intervention. Yet the reality is its people were the first enslaved population to deliver themselves from slavery and also carried out what was only the third successful republican insurrection on the planet. The threat of this good example was rewarded with centuries of invasion, blackmail, the robbery of Haiti's natural resources and the impoverishment of its people. This articles summarizes that history of intervention and the resistance to it in order to put into context what is happening in Haiti after the quake
