Five of Nato’s top strategists have issued a” radical manifesto” urging the alliance’s member states to prepare for nuclear first strikes in order to counter fanatics who , they claim , are bent on destroying the West’s “way of life” . The vehement language of the manifesto has puzzled some commentators . Robert Cooper, an influential shaper of European foreign and security policy in Brussels is quoted in the Guardian article as saying "Maybe we are going to use nuclear weapons before anyone else, but I'd be wary of saying it out loud." The 150 page manifesto will be delivered to the Pentagon over the next ten days . It is issued at a time of crisis for NATO whose conventional forces face the prospect of defeat in Afghanistan . According to the Guardian, it was written following discussions with active NATO commanders and policymakers, many of whom are unable or unwilling to publicly air their views. read full story / add a comment

Many readers will ask- what on Earth is this person on about?? Of course the Government wants to stop violence!!!!!!!! Does it really?? No, that is propaganda. Violent men and women are rewarded by the system in secret courts not open to the public. Secret courts are supposed to keep the childs identity secret.!! That is not what is being kept secret at all. Rather- it is the corruption of the state agents, lawyers, judges etc that is kept hidden. read full story / add a comment

A certain hysteria has it certain sectors of Spanish & Catalan public opinion following the arrests of 14 suspected Islamist terrorists in the city of Barcelona between Friday night & Saturday morning. In an operation involving the Spanish secret service (the CNI) the Guardia Civil & local regional Catalan police (Mossos d'esquadra) co-ordinated raids made on a bakery, mosque & several flats in the Raval district of central Barcelona. Immediately news services both in the Spanish state & abroad cited further co-operation with amongst others the intelligence services of France & the UK. The Spanish state will celebrate a general election on the 9th of March almost 4 years after the M11 massacre which was falsely attributed to ETA by the then right wing regime. Nobody wants to talk about bombs now - but we should all the same. read full story / add a comment
