offsite link Why the Right Must Take the High Ground When it Comes to Free Speech Sat Sep 27, 2025 09:00 | Toby Young
Tempting though it is, Donald Trump and his allies should refrain from trying to cancel their political opponents. Free speech is one of the core values that the defenders of Western civilisation should uphold.

offsite link In Defence of Cancelling the Left Fri Sep 26, 2025 17:00 | Dr James Allan
Should the Right take the moral high ground and refrain from cancel culture? Or should it give the Left a taste of its own medicine ? and try to teach it a lesson? It has to be the latter, argues Professor James Allan.

While the attack on Gaza is pretty much continuous, reports from people in Gaza on Al Jazeera English say that the worst of it is always at night - with noticeable intensification at dawn. The dawn raids are deliberately timed to coincide with the early morning call to prayers from the minarets. It makes a hideous contrast.
Anyway, a bunch of media activists have decided to stay with the people of Gaza each night and to watch what is going on via A J English, if you can get it, and to post commentary on the Medialens messageboard. We're a small group yet, but hopefully more will join us each night.

Not only is Evo breaking off ties with Israel, he’s committed himself to bringing a case against them before the International Criminal Court — on charges of Genocide.

Bolivia currently has a judge serving on the panel of the ICC — through 2009 — so maybe we’ll see some interesting fireworks. So do Brazil and Costa Rica. read full story / add a comment

Al Jazeera have a creative commons repository which permits people reuse their their footage of their Gaza related coverage in an attempt to help get the truth of the situation out - a tacit criticism of other mainstream media.

"Let us know! You can send us a message through our contact form.

According the license, you must attribute the footage to Al Jazeera (but not in any way that suggests that we endorse you or your use of our work).

You are required to leave our logos intact, reference this website and the license itself."

The vicious assault on a bus driver and the theft of a Dublin Bus in Cork Street, Dublin last week has once again shown us that antisocial behaviour in becoming increasingly out of hand.
