Free Papua Activists Hoist Flag Over Border Post

Following the opening of offices in Oxford (UK) and The Hague, countries round the world are now supporting the cause of autonomy for West Papua from Indonesia



Full version of the critically acclaimed undercover documentary, 'Forgotten Bird of Paradise'. The film provides a rare and moving insight into the ongoing struggle for freedom being fought by the West Papua people against Indonesian colonial rule. For over 45 years the people of West Papua have suffered in silence. Slowly their voice is starting to be heard. Documentary produced by Dancing Turtle Films.

UPDATE: Gunmen believed to be from a separatist group attacked a border post between Indonesian Papua and Papua New Guinea on Thursday, taking down the Indonesian flag and hoisting a banned separatist flag in its place. Reports said that the gunmen, suspected to be members of the Free Papua Organization (OPM) fired on the post in the Gunung Pawa area from under the cover of the thick jungle. No one was hit in the gunfire, but the border officials fled, allowing the gunmen to run down to the post, tear down the Indonesian flag and put up the Bintang Kejora (Morning Star) flag — a banned symbol of the area’s decades-long separatist struggle. The gunmen also set fire to a number of kiosks around the border post. A joint police-military patrol arrived at the post soon after, but by then the gunmen had fled back into the cover of the forest. (Source)

Reid Owns 93 Acres Next to Bundy Ranch

When a government is no longer on the side of the people, and the people have the inalienable right to freedom, this is what you get, folks! Hashtag #BundyRanch



Infowars reveal that Senator Harry Reid and his son are involved in a deal with a Chinese state energy company to build a solar farm on the same land to which ranchers have common law grazing rights.

UPDATE: While Senator Harry Reid professes that he is running the Bundy cattle off of public land because it’s the right thing to do, evidence indicates that Dirty Harry might have a personal interest in seeing that the Bundy’s join the other 52 ranchers they’ve run out of business. Parcels held by an entity, Reid Bunkerville, LLC, which is partially owned by the Nevada Senator are in close proximity to the Bundy ranch. The parcels appear to be in the path of future development, which may even involve a freeway interchange and loop, all west of Bunkerville in the same general area as those “trespass cattle.” (...)

Athens Protesters Take Their Underwear to Parliament

Open-air market vendors hung their underwear outside the Greek Parliament to protest a series of reforms that will economically destroy 50,000 families, they claim

Symbolic protest based on the Greek phrase “mas piran ta sovraka” ("they deprived us of our panties") meaning "they stole everything".

Men and women, fruit and vegetables vendors and producers gathered in Kaningos Square and marched to the Greek Parliament where they staged their unique protest. Fruit and vegetable vendors at open-air markets (laiki) went on indefinite strike on Monday as they disagree with the draft bill of the Development Ministry. Main points of dispute:

He calls it an “inspiring thought” that in the long term “the whole of European territory outside Russia” will be tied in some way to the EU. He admits he does not know if there is public support for such a move, “but we do it anyway.”

Pressure Mounting on Kerry to Resign Over 'Apartheid'

No Israeli will be having any civil rights within the borders of a Palestinian state. The negotiators have made that plain. Yet Arab and Muslim citizens enjoy full civil rights within the state of Israel

Columnist Charles Krauthammer castigates Kerry for his misguided remarks about Israel potentiallly becoming an "apartheid state".

Once the Palestinians will have their nation state no Israeli will be having any civil rights within the borders. The negotiators have made that abundantly clear. Yet Arab and Muslim citizens are enjoying full civil rights within the state of Israel. Apartheid is Palestinian rhetoriek with which they keep the narrative of victimhood alive. And the arbiter of the peace process has now repeated that rhetoric in private when he thought he wasn't overheard. Kerry should resign effective immediately. He has damaged the cause of peace in a terrible way.

Crocodile Tears Over Condemned Muslim Brothers

The media are oozing implied indignation over 683 Muslim Brotherhood defendants condemned to death today by an Egyptian Court. Among them kingpin Mohamed Badie

On Aug. 14, 2013 followers of the Muslim Brotherhood stormed the Kerdasa police station and massacred everyone in the building. 

The transnational elite and their lapdog media are oozing indignation over 683 Muslim Brotherhood defendants condemned to death today by an Egyptian Court. (Source) They have been trying to pass off the Muslim Brotherhood as the acceptable, 'moderate' and 'democratic' arm of Islamism. Surely some believed their own propaganda, as usual. But this idea always was a horrible mistake. Country after country in the Middle East succumbed to the so-called Arab Spring, which was nothing but a covert operation to bring the Muslim Brotherhood to power.
