Israel releases Humanitarian Hostages

Thiago Ávila llega a su tierra Sao Paulo y es recibido por la militancia por Palestina después de haber sido secuestrado por el ente ocupante. Además, su esposa y su hija lo esperaban en el aeropuerto.

City News is reporting that "Israel deported two activists on Sunday after being detained for slightly over a week for leading an aid flotilla attempting to break the Israeli naval blockade of the Gaza Strip."

"The two, Spanish-Swedish citizen of Palestinian origin Saif Abukeshek and Brazilian citizen Thiago Ávila, were among dozens of activists intercepted by the Israeli navy off the coast of Crete. Both are members of the Global Sumud Flotilla’s steering committee, whose mission is to break Israel’s naval blockade and bring some humanitarian aid to the Palestinian territory."

First off, the disgusting misrepresentation of this heinous act is outrageous. The headline reads Israel deports 2 activists detained for leading an aid flotilla to Gaza. Deports two activists. They released two hostages they illegally kidnapped in international waters and brought to Israel to be tortured.

They were on a humanitarian mission to provide food to civilians being brutalized in war like the Red Cross or the Red Crescent. Israel has been starving those civilians for three years, blocking aid and killing aid workers. The way the media is misrepresenting these defiant atrocities is shocking. 

Saif Abu Keshek is in Athens. This is what he had to say. Thiago Ávila is back in Brazil. Starving civilians. Blocking humanitarian aid. Killing aid workers and launching double tap air strikes to murder emergency workers. These are the atrocities we see while the mainstream media rationalizes them with lies. 

Fascism is just as bad as Communism. Reject the Agenda.

I don't agree with all of Thiago Ávila's political opinions. He uses similar key words that Mick Wallace and Clare Daly use like anti Imperialism. He also supports fake environmentalism for that anti Imperialism Agenda which like ANTIFA, uses atrocities and a manufactured emergency to justify a one world Communist government run by the United Nations.

Again Fascism and Communism are both wrong. It's not a choice between one or the other. It's denouncing both extremes and finding a healthy balance between the two. It's not letting one extreme con us into embracing the other. It's seeing through the con and the manufactured emergency to find a much more healthier solution without either extremism. That is peace.

Motorcycle left hanging from a traffic light in Delta

Update: Dash cam from the other side

CBC is reporting that "Police say a motorcyclist was taken to hospital with serious injuries after a B.C. crash near the Surrey-Delta border Saturday afternoon left a motorcycle dangling from a traffic light above a busy intersection."

"Delta police say officers were called just before 3 p.m. PT to the 7100-block of Scott Road at 72nd Avenue and 120th Street for a crash between a motorcycle and car. Police say the rider suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries and the driver of the sedan was not injured." Pretty bizarre. 

The bike must have hit the front corner of the car then went straight up in the air like a ramp. It made the New York Post. 

Double shooting at Surrey gas station

CBC is reporting that "An overnight shooting in Surrey, B.C., has sent two people to hospital. The Surrey Police Service (SPS) said two men were shot outside a Chevron gas station at the intersection of 72nd Avenue and 152 Street just before 4 a.m. PT on Sunday. Both victims were rushed to hospital."

The Soviet Red Army did not Liberate Eastern Europe

Liberate????

— Dennis Watson (@DennisWatsonSRY) May 10, 2026

I keep mentioning how much respect I have for Mick Wallace and Clare Daly. There are many things I completely agree with them on. However there are a few things that I definitely don't agree withe them on and this is one of them.

Stalin didn't liberate Eastern Europe, he used the Nazi invasion as an excuse to enslave them. I've talked about how Stalin conned the Polish resistance. Stalin was a very bad man. He killed more people than Hitler. 

That's not to say Hitler was good because he most certainly was not. Hitler was a madman who committed atrocities. It's just that Stalin's death camps were no different than Hitler's death camps. They were the same. 

I've mentioned that when I worked for the Post Office I met many people in the Union who called themselves Communists. One coworker said he thought I was a Communist for the same reason I thought he wasn't. We both believe in democracy and free speech. It took me quite a while to get my brain around that defiant contradiction. 

I came to the conclusion that some people actually believe the idealistic hope of Communism. James Connolly was one only he put his idealism on paper in the 1916 Irish Proclamation protecting civil liberty by law. Most people claim in Communism you have to give up individual rights in support of collective rights. I believe that is a con. You can't have collective rights if you don't have individual rights. 

Mick keeps going on about Western Imperialism and when I see all the Netanyahu and Trump 2.0 atrocities I have to agree. That's exactly what it is but that is the exact opposite of the intent behind the American Revolution and the Declaration of Independence. Realistically, what Netanyahu and Trump 2.0 are doing is Fascism. You can't call what they're doing Capitalism. 

I don't even like the term Capitalism because it often means greed and greed is bad. I prefer the term free market where if someone wants to start a business they can. There's nothing stopping them. My point is when we see people denounce Capitalism and Imperialism, then raise the Red flag of Genocide and Slavery, I say hold the door. 

What Stalin did was not what James Connolly intended in the same way what Trump 2.0 is doing is not what the Founding Fathers intended. Putin raising a white marble statue of Stalin in the Moscow subway station in mentally deranged. 

That is a very bad omen to beware of because history repeats itself until we learn from it. As my Russian neighbour once said, First they give you cake. Then they starve you. After that, you take whatever they give you.

Surrey Youth Orchestra 50th Anniversary

We attended the Surrey Youth Orchestra's 50th Anniversary last night. It was magnificent. High School band is high school band but when you add a sea of strings it becomes a symphony. Brass, woodwinds, strings, it all comes together. 

It's like when Martin Luther King said "With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of this nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood."

They had all the groups on stage for the finale and it reminded me of one of the finales from the old Blaine Jazz festival where they'd have all the groups perform sing sing sing together. It was very impressive. 

What I saw last night represented a whole lot of work. Young kids who don't spend all their time scrolling and blazing. Young kids who practice and spend their time doing something constructive. This is something worth supporting. 

Leave the WHO and their dark political agenda

Humanity would be profoundly better served if the political WHO ceased to exist. Until then, wisdom demands we heed the hard lessons of past 6yrs & recognize the political WHO for what it is: a harmful, unethical, unscientific, illegitimate, divisive & propagandistic organization

Jeff Lynds was stripped by Paul Sasquatch Porter

Check out this article. It explains Jeff Lynds connection between Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia based on a hit man turned informant. It confirms the timetable of events that occurred after most of the Quebec chapter were in prison from Operation SharQc which led up to the current betrayal of the Rizutos in Montreal by the Ontario Hells Angels. 

It states that Jeff Lynds was a Nomad from Ontario selling drugs in Nova Scotia who had his patch pulled by Sasquatch after a dispute with a local drug dealer. That could only have been the legendary Paul Sasquatch Porter who was a member of the Rock Machine that crossed over with the rest of the RM leadership when Mom Boucher went to prison.

I didn't realize Jeff Lynds was an Ontario Nomad. I thought he was from Nova Scotia. So here we have an Ontario Nomad selling drugs in Nova Scotia after the Quebec members were in jail, responsible for the murder of Randy and Kirk Mersereau. Gets stripped by Paul Porter, kills more people trying to get his patch back then rats out the people he hired so the police fake his death and he enters witness protection. Jeff Lynds is a f*ck up. What we do in life echoes in eternity. 

CBSA seize 250 kilos of cocaine in Halifax

The RCMP are reporting that "Federal law enforcement agencies have successfully disrupted an organized crime group importing 248.7 kilograms of cocaine into Canada from the Dominican Republic."

"The investigation was initiated on March 3, 2026, after Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers intercepted a shipment being imported into Canada via Halifax, Nova Scotia. The shipment had been flagged for inspection by the CBSA’s National Targeting Centre."

"Using X-ray technology, CBSA officers at the Africville Seasides Marine Container Examination Facility in Halifax detected 1,178 illicit packages within the shipment: the drugs were wrapped in carbon paper and concealed within flatbread. Upon further inspection, multiple field tests confirmed the substance as suspected cocaine. CBSA seized the packages and referred the investigation to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), Federal Policing - Central Region."

"The importer has been identified as Peter Pompeo (58) of Montreal, Quebec, who has been suspected to be working and conspiring with Taylor Bixby (35) of Thorold, Ontario, and Zachary Daniel Ardizzi (33) of Mississauga, Ontario, in order to import and traffic the cocaine."

From oil giants to banks - these companies are making billions from Iran war

Here’s the truth about the war in Ukraine pic.twitter.com/pBf4XkTO21

— Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) February 11, 2024

BBC is reporting that "As households across the globe count the costs of the US-Israel war in Iran, some companies have been counting bumper profits instead." Like BP. Dripping in profits from the Saudi monopoly.

"The uncertainty sparked by the conflict, and Iran's effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, is driving up the cost of living and hitting the budgets of firms, families and governments. But while some have been pushed to the brink, others, whose core businesses are more profitable in a war or who benefit from volatile energy prices, have seen record earnings."

"Here are some of the sectors and companies making billions while the Middle East conflict continues. 1. Oil and gas. BP's profits more than doubled to $3.2bn (£2.4bn) for the first three months of the year. Shell also beat analysts' expectations when it reported a rise in first-quarter profits to $6.92bn."

"2. Big banks. Some of the biggest banks have also seen their profits boosted during the war in Iran. JP Morgan's trading arm made a record $11.6bn of revenue in the first three months of 2026, helping the bank overall to its second biggest ever quarterly profit."

"Across the rest of the 'Big Six' banks - which includes Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo, as well as JP Morgan - profits all rose substantially in the first quarter of the year. Overall, the banks reported $47.7bn in profits for the first three months of 2026."

RFK talked about the War Profiteers in the Ukraine conflict. The Iran war and invasion of Lebanon makes that took like small potatoes. So Netanyahu's atrocities in Lebanon have the backing of Big Oil and Banks. The road to hell is paved with gold so it is.
