4 August 2019 (Wall Street International)* — David Ray Griffin is a philosopher of religion who has written a dozen books on 9/11, all of which I have reviewed. George W Bush apparently wrote in his diary on September 11, 2001, that “the Pearl Harbour of the 21st-century happened today”, and we now know the foreign policy fallout of this event in terms of the War on Terror, along with domestic measures curtailing freedom and embodied in the Patriot Act.

The harsh reality of rape, early marriage, or sex trafficking or slavery, rarely makes headlines. Nor do girls who are often kept away from school for their own safety or to care for their family.

By UN Environment* — In 1850, a tiger’s pawprints could be found in both the hardpacked snow of Siberian forests and the soft beach sands of Bali. Tigers roamed from the edge of Europe at the Caspian Sea to the shores of the Pacific. To walk into most of Asia’s forest at that time was to enter the domain of one of the most impressive apex predators on the planet.
Upwards of 100,000 tigers ruled the continent’s wilderness then.
Far from tyrants, their reign as a keystone species at the top of the food chain allowed countless species and ecosystems to flourish in their dominion.
Today, the tiger’s range is a mere 7 per cent of what it once was. Their numbers, a mere fraction.

28 July 2019 (Wall Street International)* — A little more than five years ago, this hemisphere received what we can say was the first massive and silent migration of Venezuelans. A migration with economic purposes and guaranteed return. There were no reproaches or scorn.
Within the framework of the exchange control system implemented by the Bolivarian government since 2003, there came a time when practically any worker could have access to a quota of dollars at a regulated cost.

Please read this (and ask your grown-ups to explain and… behave themselves)
It looks like a funny tale. But it is much more than just that—it is about nothing less than your health.
If you, wonderful kids, can read it and understand it by yourselves, that would be really great.

Out-of-Control Military Spending Since Eisenhower’s Presidency May be the Primary Reason Why the US National Debt is $23,000,000,000,000 (23 trillion) and Counting.

“Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of ploughshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well…We have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions.”

In 2017, the Hanford Waste Management Site, Washington, was suddenly evacuated. A radioactive waste storage tunnel, built in 1965, had collapsed and the fallout was unknown.
Hanford holds the waste from most of the US’s weapons-grade plutonium, about 56 million gallons of radioactive sludge in decrepit tanks.

By the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN)* —
Building nuclear weapons requires materials and labor, not just from scientists, but also from the men and women living in communities nearby. After the Cold War, many of the United State’s most crucial nuclear weapons production sites ‘closed’ and were forgotten, but not by workers and local communities, who were left to deal with the devastating, toxic legacy of these sites.
This is obvious at Hanford Waste Management Site, Washington. It is sometimes referred to as “
the most toxic place in America,” yet most people will never have heard of it.
