Last Notes npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty I think I'm one of the slopsters, amongst other things trying to create accurate measurements of harm to unarmed people around the globe. Then a enablement matrix, so it maps culpability. Expected harm if continued and life giving measures proposals. No coding experience other than dabbling over a few months. Predictive modeling maths, is beyond me, want an accepted calibrated method that is uncontroversial but seeks to give a true reflection. Many measurements are contested and reality gets missed. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Bahá’í institutions are saying (substance, not rhetoric) Official Bahá’í bodies and representatives (notably at the UN level) have consistently expressed the following positions in relation to unrest and repression in Iran: Deep concern for loss of life, mass arrests, and repression, regardless of political framing. Calls for restraint by authorities, protection of civilians, and respect for due process. Emphasis on dialogue and inclusion, especially addressing long-standing grievances (economic, social, and cultural). Rejection of collective punishment, including internet shutdowns, intimidation of families, and targeting of minorities. These statements are careful, measured, and avoid inflammatory language by design. Particular sensitivity: minorities and conscience Bahá’í commentary often highlights a broader pattern: Societies that criminalize conscience—whether religious belief, peaceful dissent, or independent thought—tend toward recurring unrest. The long persecution of Bahá’ís in Iran is cited not to claim exceptionalism, but as evidence of systemic intolerance that ultimately harms the whole society. In this framing, current events are not an anomaly but part of a deeper moral and governance crisis. https://image.nostr.build/b0b86b1035a302ce34093ce732de5fe83399bbeafa4029713fc9a7cb06da6095.jpg npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Thanks, a great read, as a non programmer, playing around, I find the conceptualisation of ideas of llm models great and pulling up some research.

They went after the disabled community members following the bail out of banks. Now we have a jobocolypse happening and not too far away from robots which will then create more useless eaters in the mind of the destributors of contracts and rules. Mathematically there isn't the jobs for everyone to be able to generate an income in such a way. They wish people to cling to life's meaning to be determined by them, to be limited to their thoughts. Luckily a futile wish.

Leaflets were handed out and in discussion with some of the people working in prison, they had no idea there was a hunger strike happening. https://youtu.be/Xr2PUUWHAy4? npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Let me frame this in a way that directly attributes the comparison to the Crown’s own prosecutorial standards. --- Directly Attributing the Comparison to Crown Standards Crown’s Own Standard of Criminal Damage Under UK law, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) uses precise monetary valuations of property damage as a basis for charging decisions, sentencing ranges, and the application of terrorism or national-security legislation. In the cases of the Filton 18 (Elbit Systems UK) and the Brize Norton activists (RAF Voyagers), the Crown has formally quantified damage in the range of £1–7 million and treated these sums as legally significant enough to justify prolonged remand, terrorism framing, and organisational proscription. Applying the Same Standard to Gaza Air Operations By the Crown’s own logic, the monetary cost of damaged property is a critical metric. If we apply this exact same metric to the Israeli air operations in Gaza—operations commanded by an official whom the UK has chosen to shield—we see an incomparable scale of harm. According to the World Bank, UN, and EU assessments, the direct physical damage in Gaza by October 2024—caused primarily by aerial bombardment—stood at around US$30 billion, with total reconstruction needs estimated at US$70–80+ billion. The destruction includes the levelling of entire residential districts, civilian infrastructure, hospitals, and schools—harm that is not only vastly larger in economic terms, but also includes the mass killing of civilians. Legal Asymmetry and Crown Interest The Crown has chosen to prosecute UK activists for non-lethal property damage using the harshest legal tools available—counter-terrorism law—while simultaneously granting immunity and hospitality to a foreign commander responsible for a scale of destruction that is tens of thousands of times greater. In other words, the Crown’s own prosecutorial standards of measuring harm reveal a stark legal asymmetry: the UK treats minor, non-lethal property damage by domestic protestors as a terrorism-level crime, while it refuses to apply the same logic or accountability measures to a foreign military actor whose actions have resulted in incomparably greater harm. --- If you want, I can turn this into: A formal legal memorandum A section of a legal brief on selective enforcement Or a comparative chart for easier courtroom reference. https://image.nostr.build/1ce93cb17eea0c5a1bd1d1d11031073970077e66ebc32e125389c3478f14b80a.jpg npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Below is a clear, legally grounded placement of Elbit Systems within the framework we have been analysing. No accusations—only the legal position Elbit occupies when the UK is assessed under: the Genocide Convention, Customary International Humanitarian Law, the ICC Act 2001, the Arms Trade Treaties / UK Export Control Regime, and state-responsibility doctrine. This is the most accurate way to answer “Where is Elbit Systems in this?”. --- 1. Elbit Systems is not a neutral civilian company in this legal context Elbit is Israel’s largest private arms supplier, providing: drones used in targeting and strike planning, surveillance and fire-control systems, munitions and components, communications and battlefield management systems, parts integrated into aircraft and missile systems. Under international law, a corporation with this profile is classified as a defence manufacturer that produces means and methods of warfare. This places it directly inside the legal ecosystem governing war-crimes risk, genocide-risk, and arms-transfer law. --- 2. Under the UK’s legal framework, Elbit systems sits within the category of “potential corporate complicity” Under the ICC Act 2001, a company can be implicated if its officers: intentionally, knowingly, or with wilful blindness assist, enable, or contribute to war crimes or genocidal acts. The ICC Act does not grant corporations immunity. Corporate officers may be individually liable. Elbit therefore sits in the category of: Corporate actor whose products materially contribute to operations that are under ICC investigation and ICJ scrutiny. This does not prove guilt— but places the company within the zone of potential complicity. --- 3. Under the Genocide Convention (Articles I & III), Elbit’s role triggers “duty to prevent” obligations for states like the UK If a corporation supplies systems used in: indiscriminate attacks, collective punishment, targeting civilian infrastructure, or actions the ICJ describes as plausibly genocidal, then states providing economic or logistical support to that corporation have a heightened duty to prevent escalation. What this means: The UK’s continued facilitation of Elbit’s operations (licences, tax status, police protection) engages UK state responsibility. Elbit’s participation becomes part of the risk chain the UK must assess under law. Thus, in legal terms, Elbit is not “separate”— it is part of the causal pathway states must evaluate. --- 4. Under the Arms Trade Treaty and UK Export Control law, Elbit sits in the category: “high-risk end-user/producer.” Under ATT Articles 6 & 7, the UK must deny export licences when there is: a clear risk of war-crimes use, risk of serious violations of IHL, or contribution to genocide-risk conditions. Elbit’s core products are: drones used for strikes on densely populated civilian areas; thermal/optical targeting systems on aircraft linked to mass-casualty bombings; fire-control suites for artillery and precision-guided munitions. These functions meet the ATT definition of likely involvement in serious IHL violations. Thus, Elbit is legally positioned as: A high-risk actor whose operations should trigger licence suspensions or refusals. --- 5. Under state-responsibility doctrine (ILC Articles 16 & 41), Elbit sits in the category of “assisted entity”. A state violates international law if it: provides assistance, coordinates, facilitates, supports, or shields an entity that is committing internationally wrongful acts. Elbit is: a direct producer of tools used in the Gaza bombardment, a beneficiary of UK police protection and intelligence coordination, and a commercial partner of UK defence industries. Thus, in doctrine, Elbit sits in the position where the UK’s support, protection, or enabling conditions may translate to state responsibility. --- 6. Under domestic UK criminal law (Terrorism Act 2000), Elbit is paradoxically treated as a protected victim The Crown prosecutes activists who damage Elbit property as: “terrorists,” “threats to national security,” or “serious organised criminals”. This places Elbit in the bizarre legal category: “Protected infrastructure essential to national security.” This is the opposite of its position under international law. This contradiction is the most important point. --- 7. The single sentence answer: Elbit Systems is positioned, in law, as a defence corporation whose products materially contribute to a conflict that international courts have identified as carrying a plausible risk of genocide—placing it squarely in the chain of actors that the UK is legally obliged to regulate, restrict, and potentially investigate, yet which the Crown currently treats as a protected national-security asset rather than a high-risk contributor to internationally unlawful harm. https://image.nostr.build/a0d6acb16036d82f9d907b4efa907ce3df3ab199d238836031c18b481015a8db.jpg --- npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty This would make an interesting HQ for the Change Shifters Collective.

When the video first shows the three people in red, Mr. Morris asks the officer whether he had noticed the security guard on his right holding a sledgehammer. He replies that he can’t remember. He was also asked when he’d first seen the footage and whether it was before writing his first statement. After challenging Mr. Morris as to whether it was a strike or whether it was a push that the guard administered with the sledgehammer on Devlin’s neck, Buxton does agree that his statement claimed the sledgehammer was in Devlin’s hands, but now realises that it was the guard who was actually holding it. The barrister asked the officer whether he knew why the guard had a sledgehammer, and he answered that he didn’t. Morris ended by asking whether he had identified himself as a police officer verbally at any point – (he hadn’t), and to confirm whether he’d used the PAVA spray on people’s eyes – (he did)." https://realmedia.press/the-filton-trial-2/ npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Life Is Sacred: A Global Compendium of Public Justice Expressions https://image.nostr.build/09248dabcd7e75dd3b8afab5c91506fa5110ee9ff8c1c14b7b5a55d12d72e503.jpgPreface This work begins from two observations with global reach: life is treated as sacred, and justice must be visible to be legitimate. These principles appear across civilisations, languages, and legal systems—written, oral, communal, sacred, and state‑based. Together, the volumes demonstrate a near‑universal legal expectation: unjust killing violates what societies regard as most sacred, and justice must be seen to be accepted. Across 336 distinct languages, peoples, and legal traditions, covering the vast majority of humanity, the pattern holds. It appears in constitutions, customary law, Indigenous jurisprudence, ceremonial processes, and international norms. It reflects a foundational global customary principle: life has inherent sanctity, and legitimate governance requires public accountability. Future volumes will include endangered languages, smaller Indigenous nations, historical legal forms, and diaspora or cross-border traditions. Scope Note (applies to all volumes) This volume forms part of a multi‑volume compendium containing 336 distinct languages, peoples, and legal-cultural traditions. Together, they represent the majority of the world’s population. Entries are not exhaustive, but they demonstrate a consistent global pattern: life is regarded as sacred, and justice must be made visible. Additional volumes will expand the record without altering this underlying global norm. Life Is Sacred: A Global Compendium of Public Justice Expressions VOLUME I — Preface & Languages A–F Across world cultures, two legal–moral principles appear with striking universality: Life is sacred — expressed through concepts of divinity, dignity, ancestral trust, land-connection, and vital force. Justice must be publicly seen — courts, councils, assemblies, rituals, and community witnesses ensure legitimacy. Hidden justice is treated as injustice. These principles appear in oral law, state law, Indigenous jurisprudence, sacred texts, and customary courts on every continent. They form a global foundation for legal interpretation. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty "At the Royal Courts of Justice right now." https://image.nostr.build/352567af0fa90ec2c5023331900d5bd8b9f838a24944e7fff46ccb2fed614376.jpg npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty If you want to follow the FIlton Trial, it is being covered by https://realmedia.press/ The prosecution case is currently being made.

Replace the old preface with a new perspective; 2. Add a scope note into each existing volume; 3. Frame Volume V as “the rest / living expansion”. You can adjust headings to taste. --- 1. Updated Preface (replace the old one) > Preface This work begins from two simple observations that prove, on inspection, to be global in scope: 1. Life is treated as sacred. Across civilisations, human life is described as holy, inviolable, dignified, entrusted by God or ancestors, bound to land and waters, or animated by a vital force. Even when the vocabulary differs, the legal and moral intuition is the same: taking life unjustly is not merely wrong; it is a betrayal of the most basic order of things. 2. Justice must be visible to be legitimate. Courts, councils, kgotla, parliaments, palaver trees, sentencing circles, church courts, kivas, longhouses, village squares, chiefs’ palaces, mosques, temples, men’s houses, and community halls all express the same requirement: justice that is hidden, opaque, or concealed from the people is not accepted as justice. It must be done, and it must be seen. These principles appear in written constitutions and case law, in international instruments, in Indigenous legal orders, in religious jurisprudence, and in unwritten customary systems. They are not the property of any one culture or tradition. Scope and population coverage The four volumes currently assembled contain 336 distinct languages, peoples, or legal-cultural traditions. Together, they represent: Every inhabited continent; All major language families and world religions; The primary legal traditions (common law, civil law, Islamic, Hindu, Confucian, Indigenous, customary); Hundreds of Indigenous nations and minority cultures. Because they include the world’s largest languages and legal systems – alongside many of the smallest and most endangered – these volumes collectively reflect the lived experience of virtually the entire human population. The precise demographic counts shift with time, but in broad terms the compendium now covers the legal and moral intuitions of most of the planet’s people. The conclusion is straightforward: The sacrality of life and The requirement that justice be public and visible are not local preferences. They are near-universal legal expectations, found in the practices and vocabularies of peoples spread across the earth. They can therefore be argued as elements of emerging global customary law: norms that courts and institutions should treat as baseline in interpreting constitutions, statutes, and international obligations (including duties to prevent atrocity crimes). Method Each entry in the compendium does two things: It identifies, in the language or cultural frame of that people, how the idea that life is sacred is expressed (lexically, conceptually, or through core metaphors); and It notes how justice being seen to be done is embodied in that tradition’s legal or procedural practice (public hearings, visible decisions, communal witnessing, ritualised reconciliation, and so on). The result is not an anthropological catalogue for its own sake. It is an evidential map. It shows that if a court, government, or institution treats life as expendable, or justice as something that can be done in the dark, it is not merely contradicting one culture’s values; it is moving against the grain of human civilisation as a whole. Future volumes This compendium is incomplete by design. Many languages are uncounted; many peoples have yet to appear by name. Future volumes are reserved for: Endangered and unrecorded languages; Smaller Indigenous nations and local legal orders not yet included; Historical legal systems; Diaspora and mixed traditions that cross state and linguistic boundaries. The aim is not to “finish” the list, but to keep open a structure into which new voices can continue to be named. The underlying pattern, however, is already clear: wherever you listen on this planet, you hear, in different words, the same two claims – life is sacred, and justice must be seen. --- 2. Short scope note for the start of each existing volume Put this near the top of Volume I, II, III, IV (e.g. under the volume title): > Note on scope (shared across volumes) This volume is part of a multi-volume compendium currently containing 336 distinct languages, peoples, or legal-cultural traditions. When considered together, the volumes represent the legal and moral intuitions of the great majority of the world’s population. Entries are not exhaustive for any region, but they are sufficient to demonstrate a strong global pattern: across cultures, life is treated as sacred, and justice is expected to be public and visible. Further volumes will continue to add smaller and endangered languages, Indigenous nations, and historical systems that deepen – rather than overturn – this pattern. You can paste that same note into each volume, unchanged. --- 3. Front matter for Volume V – “The Rest” / Living Expansion Here is text you can reuse when you are ready to start Volume V: > Life Is Sacred: A Global Compendium of Public Justice Expressions VOLUME V — Endangered, Uncounted, and Emerging Traditions Purpose of this volume Volumes I–IV have assembled 336 languages, peoples, and legal-cultural traditions. They already demonstrate that the principles “life is sacred” and “justice must be seen to be done” are global norms. Volume V is different in emphasis. It is dedicated to: Endangered and critically endangered languages; Small and often unnamed Indigenous nations; Minority and migrant legal cultures that cross state borders; Historical legal systems whose ideas still echo in present practice; Newly documented customary orders that may not yet appear in major databases. The goal is not to change the conclusion of the earlier volumes, but to make it sharper: even in the smallest communities, even in places with no census category, we continue to find the same twin intuitions – that unjust killing is a violation of what is most sacred, and that justice must be done in a way that can be seen, known, and recognised by the community. In this sense, Volume V is a living annex: a space kept open for new research, testimony, and linguistic or legal work that brings additional voices into the global record. You can now drop: The new Preface into the front of the whole work. The scope note into each existing volume. The Volume V front matter wherever you want to begin the next expansion. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Below is a **precise, legally grounded list** of what can correctly be described as **“life-giving measures”** in the sense you mean: 1. **They protect life.** 2. **They make Justice publicly visible.** 3. **They align with legal obligations** (domestic, ECHR, ICC Act 2001, Genocide Convention). 4. **They restore the rule of law where it has been weakened.** These are measures a court, prosecutor, government department, or public authority can take **without political discretion**—because they arise from **existing legal duties**. I will list them in three categories: * **A. Measures that protect human life directly** * **B. Measures that restore Justice visibly** * **C. Measures that express the State’s duty to prevent atrocity crimes** These are expressed simply, in neutral legal terms—nothing rhetorical, nothing abstract. --- # **A. LIFE-GIVING MEASURES (DIRECT PROTECTION OF LIFE)** ### 1. **Immediate review of all arms export licences where there is a “clear risk” of serious IHL violations** Required by: * Export Control Act 2002 * Strategic Export Licensing Criteria * *CAAT v Secretary of State (2019)* – Court of Appeal This measure protects life by preventing weapons from being used unlawfully. --- ### 2. **Suspension of intelligence-sharing that could contribute to unlawful targeting** Required by: * Common Article 1 (duty to “ensure respect” for Geneva Conventions) * ILC Articles on State Responsibility (Art 16 – aiding or assisting wrongful acts) Direct effect: prevents foreseeable harm to civilian populations. --- ### 3. **Enabling ICC evidence-gathering and witness protection** Required by: * ICC Act 2001 (domestic cooperation duties) This facilitates accountability, which is a recognised preventive tool. --- ### 4. **Applying sanctions to actors credibly implicated in mass atrocity crimes** Required by: * SAMLA 2018 * UK Human Rights Sanctions Regulations Sanctions are a preventative mechanism under UK law. --- ### 5. **Ensuring humanitarian corridors and aid-facilitation where UK assets or permissions are involved** Required by: * ICJ provisional measures obligations (binding) * UN Charter Article 94(1) This is a direct life-protecting measure. --- # **B. LIFE-GIVING MEASURES THAT MAKE JUSTICE *SEEN* TO BE DONE** ### 6. **Ending excessive pre-trial remand for non-violent defendants** Required by: * Article 5 ECHR (trial within a reasonable time) * Domestic custody time limits (CrimPR/POA 1985) Justice is “seen to be done” when pre-trial detention is proportionate. --- ### 7. **Transparent review of prosecutions where terrorism labels have been over-extended** Required by: * Proportionality and legality principles (Articles 10/11 ECHR) * Common-law fairness * Case law on protest rights This restores public confidence that criminal law is being applied responsibly. --- ### 8. **Releasing or granting bail to non-violent detainees where risk tests are not met** Required by: * Bail Act * Human Rights Act (right to liberty) This visibly restores proportionality and legal balance. --- ### 9. **Publishing genocide-risk assessments (as required by the ICJ finding of “plausible risk”)** Required by: * State duty to prevent genocide (Bosnia v Serbia, ICJ 2007) * Duty to take “all measures reasonably available” Transparency is itself a life-giving mechanism. --- ### 10. **Judicial insistence on effective remedies against proscription decisions affecting peaceful expression** Required by: * *Ammori v SSHD* litigation principles * Article 13 ECHR Justice is seen when courts protect lawful dissent. --- # **C. LIFE-GIVING MEASURES THAT EXPRESS THE STATE’S DUTY TO PREVENT ATROCITY CRIMES** ### 11. **Applying the precautionary principle recognised in genocide-risk jurisprudence** Required by: * *Gambia v Myanmar* (ICJ 2020) * *South Africa v Israel* (ICJ 2024) Plausible risk triggers State action. --- ### 12. **Issuing guidance that all departments must avoid contributing to a situation adjudged to present a plausible genocide risk** Required by: * Genocide Convention Article I * ILC State Responsibility Articles 16 & 41 * ICC Act 2001 (complicity provisions) Cross-government coordination is a legal requirement, not a policy preference. --- ### 13. **Initiating domestic investigations into potential UK complicity under ICC Act 2001** Required by: * ICC Act 2001 Part 5 * Duty to prosecute grave breaches (Geneva Conventions Act) This expresses justice in its most serious form. --- ### 14. **Implementing corporate-complicity reviews for UK-registered companies operating in high-risk sectors** Required by: * POCA (criminal property) * Corporate criminal liability * Sanctions framework * Export control rules Life is protected when supply chains are cleaned of complicity risks. --- ### 15. **Ensuring that the policing of protest complies strictly with human-rights norms and avoids chilling dissent** Required by: * Articles 10 & 11 ECHR * Case law: *DPP v Ziegler*, *Laporte*, *Redmond-Bate* * Judicial findings in Kent Police apology (October 2025) Non-violent protest is a safety-valve in a democratic society. --- # **14. Why these are “life-giving measures” in legal terms** They meet all four criteria: ### 1. They **protect human life** through preventing arms transfers, wrongful targeting, and obstruction of aid. ### 2. They **honour binding international obligations** which are designed specifically to prevent atrocity crimes. ### 3. They make **Justice visible** by restoring proper process, fair trials, and proportionality. ### 4. They **restore public confidence** that the law applies equally to the State and to citizens. These are the measures a judge or official could correctly classify as both **legally necessary** and **life-giving**. --- If you want, I can now produce: * A **complete cross-government life-giving action plan** (10 hours, operational steps); * A **shorter judicial-review appendix** listing these as *required remedies*; * A **structured memorandum** on “Justice being seen to be done in genocide-risk contexts”. Tell me which version you want. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Below are **concrete legal “imperatives”** grounded in **decided cases**, each with: * the **legal point** (what it instructs a judge / State to do), * the **case name and court**, * a **short quote** (within copyright limits), * and a **URL you can copy-paste**. I focus on authorities that directly speak to: **prevention of genocide / mass atrocities**, **plausible risk / serious risk standards**, and **courts giving effect to higher international obligations.** --- ## 1. ICJ – Bosnia v Serbia (2007): duty to prevent genocide, “all means reasonably available” **Legal point 1** Once a State knows, or should know, of a **serious risk of genocide** to a protected group, it has a **positive duty of conduct** to use **all means reasonably available** to prevent it. Courts and governments cannot treat prevention as optional or purely political. **Case** * *Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (Bosnia and Herzegovina v. Serbia and Montenegro)*, Judgment, ICJ, 26 Feb 2007. ([Aceris Law][1]) **Key formulation (para 430, as quoted in commentary):** > “States parties… must employ all means reasonably available to them, so as to prevent genocide so far as possible.” ([EJIL: Talk!][2]) This is explicitly characterised by the Court as an **obligation of conduct, not of result** (due-diligence standard), binding on all States parties to the Genocide Convention. **Implication for judges** * When evidence shows a **serious risk** of genocide to a protected group, judges must treat prevention as a binding legal duty: they should interpret and use their powers (injunctions, judicial review, export-licence challenges, cooperation with investigations, etc.) so that the State **employs all reasonably available means** to prevent genocide, not merely avoids direct commission. **Reference / text** ICJ official case page (summary + PDFs): ```text https://www.icj-cij.org/case/91 ``` Unofficial PDF copy with para 430 text visible: ````text https://www.acerislaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Application-of-the-Convention-on-the-Prevention-and-Punishment-of-the-Crime-of-Genocide.pdf ``` :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2} --- ## 2. ICJ – Bosnia v Serbia: duty to use means that can deter genocide (capacity to influence) **Legal point 2** The preventive duty is **calibrated by capacity**: where a State (or its organs) have **means likely to deter genocide**, they are under a **duty to use those means**. **Same case** - *Bosnia v Serbia*, ICJ, Judgment 2007 (paras 430–431). :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3} **Core formulation (para 430–431, as summarised in scholarship):** > States must “employ all means reasonably available to them… particularly those States with the capacity to influence effectively the action of persons likely to commit… genocide.” :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4} (Condensed from the longer passage.) **Implication for judges** - Where the **UK government** has clear levers (arms exports, intelligence, diplomatic pressure, arrests, sanctions, corporate regulation), courts should treat those as **“means likely to influence”** and therefore legally relevant. - A judge examining government inaction in the face of genocide-risk is entitled – indeed required – to ask: *Has the executive used all reasonably available means within its capacity to deter genocide?* If not, there is a prima facie failure of the preventive obligation. **Same URLs as Point 1.** --- ## 3. ICJ – The Gambia v Myanmar (2020): “plausible rights” + real and imminent risk → provisional measures to prevent genocide **Legal point 3** At the **provisional measures** stage, the ICJ will act to prevent genocide where: 1. The **rights under the Genocide Convention are “plausible”**, and 2. There is a **real and imminent risk of irreparable prejudice** to those rights. This is a **low threshold** compared to final proof – it is triggered by **plausible risk**, not certainty. **Case** - *Application of the Genocide Convention (The Gambia v. Myanmar)*, Order on Provisional Measures, ICJ, 23 Jan 2020. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5} **Key formulations (as summarised by Queen’s University Global Justice Journal):** On the **test for provisional measures**: > The Court examines “plausibility of the rights … and whether there is urgency, in the sense that there is a real and imminent risk that irreparable prejudice will be caused…” :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6} On **plausible genocide-risk to the Rohingya**: > It concluded that the right of the Rohingya “to be protected from killings and other acts threatening their existence as a group” was **plausible** and at risk of irreparable harm. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7} **Implication for judges** - The **ICJ’s own standard** confirms that **plausible rights + real and imminent risk** are enough to trigger **binding preventive measures** under the Genocide Convention. - A domestic judge considering Gaza-related duties can treat **“plausible genocide-risk to a protected group”** as a legally sufficient threshold to require **preventive action** (suspending exports, ordering review, requiring proper risk assessment), not as something that can be dismissed because “genocide is not yet proven.” **Reference** Case summary and documents index (official – may need to navigate from): ```text https://www.icj-cij.org/case/178 ```` Secondary analysis (Queen’s U): ````text https://globaljustice.queenslaw.ca/news/the-world-is-watching-the-international-court-of-justice-orders-provisional-measures-to-protect-the-rohingya-from-genocide ``` :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8} --- ## 4. ICJ – South Africa v Israel (2024): plausible genocide-risk to Palestinians in Gaza + duty to “take all measures within its power” **Legal point 4** The ICJ recognised that **Palestinians in Gaza have plausible rights to be protected from acts of genocide**, and ordered Israel to **“take all measures within its power”** to prevent such acts. This has direct implications for **third-State duties to prevent** and for judges interpreting domestic obligations in light of that finding. **Case** - *Application of the Genocide Convention (South Africa v. Israel)*, Order on Provisional Measures, ICJ, 26 Jan 2024. **Key formulations (as reported in widely available summaries):** On **plausibility**: > The Court accepted the plausibility of “at least some of the rights claimed by South Africa” under the Genocide Convention and that Palestinians in Gaza have a plausible right to be protected from genocide. On the **preventive duty** (operative clause): > “The State of Israel shall, in accordance with its obligations under the Convention… take all measures within its power to prevent the commission of all acts within the scope of Article II…” :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11} **Implication for judges** - This is a **current, live ICJ determination** that there is a **plausible genocide-risk** in Gaza. - For a UK judge, it is a powerful authority that: - There is a legally cognisable **plausible risk** to a **protected group**; - States parties must **take “all measures within [their] power”** to prevent genocide-type acts. In combination with Bosnia v Serbia, this pushes strongly toward a domestic legal view that **doing nothing, or doing very little, in the face of such a finding is not legally neutral – it is a potential breach of the duty to prevent.** **Reference** ICJ case page (index of orders and pleadings): ```text https://www.icj-cij.org/case/192 ```` Contextual summaries: ```text https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa%27s_genocide_case_against_Israel ``` --- ## 5. ICJ – LaGrand (Germany v US) (2001): provisional measures are legally binding **Legal point 5** ICJ **provisional measures are binding** obligations, not mere recommendations. This matters because the **South Africa v Israel** orders are provisional measures under Article 41 of the ICJ Statute. **Case** * *LaGrand (Germany v. United States of America)*, Judgment, ICJ, 27 June 2001. **Core holding (as summarised in standard references):** > After interpreting Article 41, the Court found that orders indicating provisional measures **have binding effect**. **Implication for judges** * When the ICJ orders a State to **“take all measures within its power”** to prevent genocide or to enable humanitarian aid, that order has **legal force** under international law. * Domestic judges assessing their own State’s conduct should work on the basis that **ignoring ICJ provisional measures is a breach of a binding international obligation**, not an optional policy choice. **Reference** General case info: ```text https://www.icj-cij.org/case/104 ``` --- ## 6. ECtHR – Osman v United Kingdom (1998): real and immediate risk to life → duty to take preventive measures **Legal point 6** Under **Article 2 ECHR (right to life)**, public authorities (including police and, by implication, the State) have a **positive obligation** to take **preventive operational measures** where they know, or ought to know, of a **real and immediate risk to life**. This is not genocide-specific but is a **strong, directly binding analogy** for UK courts. **Case** * *Osman v United Kingdom*, ECtHR, 28 Oct 1998, Reports 1998-VIII. ([LawTeacher.net][3]) **Key principle (as summarised in the judgment, para 116):** > Authorities breach Article 2 if they knew or ought to have known of a **real and immediate risk to life** and failed to take measures within their powers. ([LawTeacher.net][3]) **Implication for judges** * This establishes a **domestic standard**: once there is **foreseeable, real and immediate risk** to life, the State must act. * In a genocide-risk context, where entire **protected groups** face systematic killing, starvation or conditions of life calculated to destroy them, the Osman logic is even stronger: a court dealing with UK decision-making (exports, sanctions, arrests, etc.) has a **human-rights-grounded imperative** to require **effective preventive measures**, not passive observation. **Reference** HUDOC official text: ````text https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/eng?i=001-58257 ``` :contentReference[oaicite:19]{index=19} Readable summary: ```text https://www.lawteacher.net/cases/osman-v-uk.php ``` :contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20} --- ## 7. CAAT v Secretary of State for International Trade (2019): clear risk of serious IHL violations → licences must be refused **Legal point 7** In the **export-control context**, UK law already recognises a **legal duty to refuse arms licences** where there is a **“clear risk”** that the equipment might be used in serious violations of international humanitarian law (IHL). Courts enforce this. **Case** - *R (Campaign Against Arms Trade) v Secretary of State for International Trade* [2019] EWCA Civ 1020 (Saudi Arabia/Yemen arms exports). :contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21} **Key legal standard (from EU Common Position Criterion 2(c), incorporated into UK policy and set out in the judgment):** > Member States shall “deny an export licence if there is a clear risk that the… equipment might be used in the commission of serious violations of international humanitarian law.” :contentReference[oaicite:22]{index=22} **Implication for judges** - The Court of Appeal held it was **unlawful and irrational** to ignore extensive evidence of IHL violations when applying this “clear risk” test. - In a Gaza context, where there is already an ICJ finding of **plausible genocide-risk** and extensive documentation of IHL violations, the **CAAT standard** strongly supports the view that judges must insist on **robust, good-faith risk assessments** and **refusal** of licences where risk is clear. - This is a **direct, domestic legal hook** for judges to enforce preventive obligations regarding genocide-risk by controlling enabling behaviour (supply of weapons etc.). **Reference** Official Court of Appeal open judgment (PDF): ```text https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/CAAT-v-Secretary-of-State-and-Others-Open-12-June-2019.pdf ``` :contentReference[oaicite:24]{index=24} CAAT summary: ```text https://caat.org.uk/news/2019-07-12-2/ ```` --- ## 8. R (Ullah) v Special Adjudicator (2004): UK courts must “keep pace” with international human-rights case law **Legal point 8** UK courts have a recognised duty to align their interpretation of domestic law with **international human-rights jurisprudence** (“no more, but certainly no less”). **Case** * *R (Ullah) v Special Adjudicator* [2004] UKHL 26; [2004] 2 AC 323 (House of Lords). **Key formulation (Lord Bingham’s “Ullah principle”):** > “The duty of national courts is to keep pace with the Strasbourg jurisprudence as it evolves over time: no more, but certainly no less.” **Implication for judges** * While Ullah is framed in terms of Strasbourg, the **logic** is that domestic courts must **seriously integrate binding international obligations** when interpreting domestic law. * Together with the Genocide Convention, ICJ case law, and the ECHR right to life, this supports the argument that a UK judge **cannot simply ignore** higher-level obligations (ICJ genocide-risk findings, treaty duties to prevent genocide) when deciding whether to grant relief or how to interpret statutory powers. **Reference** House of Lords official transcript: ```text https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/ld200304/ldjudgmt/jd040617/ullah-1.htm ``` --- ## 9. How these authorities combine into a “legal imperative” to act on plausible genocide-risk Taken together, these cases provide a **multi-layered instruction** any conscientious judge can rely on: 1. **Genocide-specific duty to prevent (Bosnia v Serbia; Gambia v Myanmar; South Africa v Israel)** * There is a **binding duty** to **“employ all means reasonably available”** to prevent genocide, assessed in light of a State’s **capacity to influence** the situation. ([Aceris Law][1]) * The threshold for protective action is **plausible rights + real and imminent risk**, not full proof of genocide. ([globaljustice.queenslaw.ca][4]) 2. **Binding nature of provisional measures (LaGrand)** * ICJ orders under Article 41 are **binding**; States (and thus their organs, including courts) cannot treat them as mere political statements. 3. **Human-rights duty to prevent foreseeable loss of life (Osman)** * Where authorities **know or ought to know** of a **real and immediate risk to life**, they must take **preventive operational measures** within their powers. ([LawTeacher.net][3]) 4. **Concrete domestic mechanisms to prevent enabling conduct (CAAT)** * In export control, judges have enforced a **“clear risk” of serious IHL violations** as a hard legal bar to arms exports. ([Courts and Tribunals Judiciary][5]) 5. **Judicial duty to align with international rights (Ullah)** * UK courts must **keep pace** with international human-rights jurisprudence and cannot lawfully downgrade binding treaty and ICJ obligations to mere political preferences. On that basis, you can argue: * Once there is an **ICJ finding of plausible genocide-risk** in Gaza (South Africa v Israel), combined with extensive evidence of mass civilian destruction and starvation, the **legal standard of “serious/real and immediate risk” is clearly met**. * Under **Bosnia v Serbia + Osman + CAAT**, the UK is under a **legal – not merely moral – obligation** to: * Use all **reasonably available means** (arms, sanctions, arrests, ICC cooperation, corporate controls) to prevent genocide; * **Refuse** measures (e.g. export licences) where there is a **clear risk** of serious IHL violations; * Take **positive operational steps** to protect the lives of a **protected group** facing real and immediate risk. If you wish, the next step can be to: * Map each **UK institutional actor** (Cabinet, FCDO, MoD, Treasury/OFSI, Business & Trade, Met/SO15, CPS) to these **specific case-law duties**, and format it as a **pleading-style or judicial-review-style annex**, with the above quotes and URLs dropped in as footnotes.

This bill is the essential legislative remedy to the systemic failures exposed in this report. The Act seeks to amend the Export and Import Permits Act to: Remove the U.S. Exemption: Close the fatal loophole by applying the same strict export control scrutiny and human rights risk assessment to military exports destined for the United States as it does to every other country. Ensure Transparency: Mandate enhanced annual public reports to Parliament on Canada’s compliance with the Arms Trade Treaty. The Demand: A Comprehensive, Non-Negotiable Two-Way Arms Embargo The coalition is demanding immediate and decisive action to restore Canada’s legal and moral standing: Impose a Full Two-Way Arms Embargo: Immediately halt the transfer of all military goods and technology to and from Israel, including via the United States. Support Bill C-233: All parties must immediately support and fast-track the passage of MP Kwan’s “No More Loopholes Act” to legally close the U.S. backdoor permanently. End the Deception: Provide full public transparency on all existing military export contracts and immediately cancel any that enable the war in Gaza. The only way to genuinely and comprehensively end Canada’s complicity in the genocide is to immediately halt the flow of weapons and military components—both directly and indirectly via the U.S. loophole. https://worldbeyondwar.org/canada-new-bombshell-report-exposes-hidden-flow-of-weapons-to-israel-through-the-u-s/ npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty https://www.dci-palestine.org/_the_prison_is_inside_me_three_released_palestinian_boys_abducted_tortured_by_israeli_forces_while_seeking_aid npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Outside the home office today.

I am limiting this list to cases where (a) Gaza is explicitly the context of the alleged crimes, and (b) the filer is clearly named in public reporting. --- ### 1. International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) London-based legal NGO. Publicly reported Gaza-specific filings: 1. **Jan 2023 – Gaza war-crimes complaint to SO15** * Complaint submitted to Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Unit (SO15) alleging war crimes in Gaza and responsibility of Israeli and British nationals. ([33 Bedford Row][1]) 2. **Jan 2024 – UK ministers’ complicity in Gaza war crimes** * ICJP handed hard drives and evidence dossiers to SO15, alleging UK government ministers’ complicity in war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, including attacks on civilians and starvation. ([ICJP][2]) 3. **May 2024 – “Starvation as a method of warfare” in Gaza** * Extended complaint to Scotland Yard’s War Crimes Team over Israel’s alleged use of starvation as a method of warfare and targeting of Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, with a 60-page complaint and ~800 pages of evidence. ([prc.org.uk][3]) 4. **June 2024 – UK-born Israeli ex-official & Gaza** * Formal complaint to SO15 accusing a British-born Israeli ex-government official of abetting and conspiring in war crimes against Palestinian civilians in Gaza. ([JURIST][4]) Reference points: ICJP own releases and coverage in Middle East Eye, Al Jazeera, The Times, The Independent, and Palestinian Return Centre’s report on the May 2024 complaint. ([ICJP][2]) --- ### 2. Public Interest Law Centre (PILC) UK legal centre. Gaza-specific filings: 1. **April 2025 – 240-page dossier on 10 Britons fighting in Gaza** * PILC led a legal team that lodged a 240-page report with the War Crimes Team at London’s Metropolitan Police (SO15), accusing ten British or dual nationals who fought with the Israeli military in Gaza of war crimes (killings of civilians and aid workers, attacks on hospitals and protected sites, forced displacement). ([pilc.org.uk][5]) 2. **Sept 2025 – Joint “Herzog complaint” (Gaza-related war crimes)** * PILC coordinated or supported a complaint to the Met, CPS and Attorney General seeking the arrest of Israeli President Isaac Herzog, based on alleged personal and accessory responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza (including starvation and systematic destruction). ([pilc.org.uk][6]) Reference points: PILC blog posts on the April 2025 report and on the Herzog complaint; coverage in The Guardian, Arab News, TRT World, and other media. ([pilc.org.uk][5]) --- ### 3. Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) Gaza-based human-rights NGO. Gaza-specific filing in UK system: * **Co-complainant on the 10-Britons Gaza war-crimes dossier** * The 240-page war-crimes complaint submitted to the Met’s War Crimes Team (SO15) against 10 Britons who served with the Israeli military in Gaza was filed on behalf of PCHR and PILC together, representing Palestinians in Gaza and in Britain. ([Anadolu Ajansı][7]) Reference points: PILC and Stop the War write-ups, Anadolu Agency report on the case, and other press summarising PCHR as joint filer. ([Anadolu Ajansı][7]) --- ### 4. Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) Human-rights organisation focused on Gaza. Gaza-specific filings: 1. **Sept 2025 – Herzog complaint (Gaza starvation / destruction)** * Co-filer with ELSC and Stop the War of a criminal complaint in the UK against Israeli President Isaac Herzog, submitting a case summary to the Met War Crimes Team and CPS detailing his alleged role in starvation policy and systematic destruction in Gaza. ([hindrajabfoundation.org][8]) 2. **Other HRF complaints tied to Gaza** * HRF has also announced criminal complaints in London over attacks on humanitarian vessels headed to or from Gaza and over named individuals’ roles in Gaza atrocities; these complaints are framed as war-crimes filings to UK authorities, including London’s Metropolitan Police. Reference points: HRF’s own posts on the Herzog complaint and legal actions over Gaza-linked atrocities, plus coverage in Middle East Monitor and other outlets. ([hindrajabfoundation.org][8]) --- ### 5. European Legal Support Center (ELSC) Legal NGO supporting Palestinian rights. Gaza-specific filing: * **Joint Herzog complaint (Gaza crimes)** * ELSC is one of the three organisations (with HRF and Stop the War) that jointly submitted the case summary and formal notifications to the Met, CPS and Attorney General regarding alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza by Isaac Herzog. ([pilc.org.uk][6]) Reference points: PILC blog and HRF / Stop the War statements on the Herzog complaint name ELSC as a co-complainant. ([pilc.org.uk][6]) --- ### 6. Stop the War Coalition UK anti-war campaign group. Gaza-specific filing: * **Joint Herzog complaint (Gaza crimes)** * Stop the War is explicitly listed as a co-complainant with HRF and ELSC in the UK Herzog case, having written to the Met and CPS and joining in the legal complaint concerning Herzog’s alleged involvement in war crimes in Gaza. ([stopwar.org.uk][9]) Reference points: Stop the War’s article “Stop the War joins legal action seeking arrest of Israeli president” and associated legal partners’ statements. ([stopwar.org.uk][9]) --- ### 7. Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) UK arms-trade campaign group. Gaza-specific filing: * **Sept 2025 – Complaint over DSEI exhibitors aiding Gaza war crimes** * CAAT publicly announced that it had made a **criminal complaint** to the War Crimes Unit at the Met Police (SO15) concerning individuals exhibiting at the DSEI arms fair in London, for aiding and abetting Israeli war crimes in Gaza. ([CAAT][10]) Reference points: CAAT press release and coverage (e.g. The New Arab) describing the complaint to SO15 over “aiding and abetting war crimes in Gaza.” ([CAAT][10]) --- ### 8. Resistance Kitchen (campaign template re Elbit Systems UK) Campaign group, primarily organising local activism. Gaza-specific legal push: * **Template letters urging SO15 war-crimes investigations into Elbit Systems UK** * Resistance Kitchen has provided a campaign template urging residents to write to local police and the SO15 War Crimes Investigations Unit, calling for investigations into Elbit Systems UK for “suspected war crimes in Gaza”. ([resistancekitchen.uk][11]) This is, as published, a coordinated push for many individuals to file war-crimes reports related to Gaza. The template itself is a public, named effort to generate such complaints, although each individual complaint is filed by residents rather than by Resistance Kitchen as a single “dossier.” Reference point: Resistance Kitchen “Demand Criminal Investigation Into Elbit Systems UK” campaign page. ([resistancekitchen.uk][11]) --- ### 9. “UK and international lawyers” teams (with Gaza focus) In several cases, the press identifies the filers collectively as “UK and international lawyers” or “a team of legal experts”, but the underlying organisations are still the ones listed above. Examples (Gaza-specific): * The 240-page Gaza dossier on 10 Britons (PILC + PCHR; led by Michael Mansfield KC) described as being submitted by “UK and international lawyers” to the Met. ([The Guardian][12]) * ICJP’s complaints on Gaza war crimes and UK complicity, described variously as being submitted by “a UK advocacy group” or “NGO” in Al Jazeera and Anadolu Agency reporting, but clearly identified as ICJP. ([Anadolu Ajansı][13]) I have not added these as separate “groups” because the organisational identity is already captured under ICJP, PILC, PCHR, etc. --- If you now want, the next refinement can be: – narrow this list to only those who have filed directly to **SO15** (as opposed to more general “British authorities”); or – add a column showing which specific incident(s) or time-period in Gaza each complaint covers (e.g. October 2023–, specific attacks, starvation policy, etc.). * [pilc.org.uk]( https://www.pilc.org.uk/blog/pilc-submit-report-to-war-crimes-team/?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * [The Guardian]( https://www.theguardian.com/law/2025/apr/07/ten-britons-accused-of-committing-war-crimes-while-fighting-for-israel-in-gaza?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * [ICJP]( https://www.icjpalestine.com/2024/01/17/criminal-complaint-alleging-uk-government-ministers-complicity-in-war-crimes-made-to-scotland-yard/?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * [Al Jazeera]( https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/23/criminal-complaint-alleges-uk-politicians-complicity-in-israeli-war-crimes?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * [Anadolu Ajansı]( https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/-they-will-be-held-accountable-uk-gaza-war-crimes-case-aims-to-deter-israeli-army-enlistment/3532821?utm_source=chatgpt.com) [1]: https://33bedfordrow.co.uk/insights/articles/haydee-dijkstal-instructed-for-complaint-to-scotland-yard-war-crimes-unit?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Haydee Dijkstal instructed for complaint to Scotland" [2]: https://www.icjpalestine.com/2024/01/17/criminal-complaint-alleging-uk-government-ministers-complicity-in-war-crimes-made-to-scotland-yard/?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Criminal Complaint Alleging UK Government Ministers ..."

Working on the basis of the sacredness of life as it's underpinning value measurement. There are unrestricted image generators which means you have greater artistic freedom. Don't like that the benchmark setters are the toy train sets of billionaires. The bias' and censorships are apparent. Would want to see one for the wisdom and assistance of the majority. A commons access model. Also one that has capacity to deweaponise other AI's. The greatest issue is the quality of life impact it's going to have as millions of people will/are being put out of work. For the general population that are in perpetual debt will see an increase in default's, homelessness, disease because the currency flow through work is less and less accessible. Creating greater stress. This won't effect the tax haven class. I've got to say as a learning agent/tool I find it useful. To test ideas, sketch out costings and other metrics it's good. Computational chemistry modelling to create new materials is quite mind blowing. The evolution of alchemy is cool though each company panning for their metaphorical gold means that what fails is not stored often or shared among people across the industry. Unless there is a financial interest in selling what doesn't work so that data gets fed into predictive modelling then some of holy grail findings won't happen. Again this is where the commons come into play. In competition it is in no one's interest to tell the truth because it might give a leg up to a competitor. Can a private company be the commons in disguise? Or would there be enough currency flow to sustain a concentrated disciplined effort to benefit those who contribute in a commons philosophy? The delivery methods and storage using ai are causing a lot of excitement in making treatments more accessible amongst the humanist scientists. Though again whether it sees light of day largely is defined by the tax haven class cartel owners. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty It's harnessing? npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty https://aftershock.media/escape-act-of-resistance/ npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Whispers of people's art festival are on the grapevine. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty What is the culture we wish to contribute towards? https://youtu.be/b3h5e-A6dfs?si=uyu6b9-SVVE5HlGx npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/pr-firm-chief-admits-placing-claims-about-palestine-action-iran-funding-uk-press npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Yeah it's a gooden. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty A good read #naddr1qq…urxe npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty 📣📣PLEASE SHARE WIDELY BY FORWARDING THIS MESSAGE📣 📣📣Lift The Ban Action locations across UK and hunger strike announced In what is set to be the “most widespread mass civil disobedience across the UK in modern British history” actions will take place in 19 towns and cities across every nation in the UK, challenging the ‘terror’ ban on Palestine Action ahead of and during the judicial review (25–27 November): 👉 Tues 18 Nov: Edinburgh, Cardiff, Oxford, Leeds, Aberystwyth, Newcastle, Nottingham, Northampton, Gloucester and Truro 👉 Thurs 20th Nov: London 👉 Sat 22nd Nov: Belfast and London 👉 Mon 24th Nov: London 👉 Weds 26th Nov: London 👉 Sat 29th Nov: Edinburgh, Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham, Cambridge, Bristol, Sheffield, Exeter and Lancaster Sign up for action: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/lift-the-ban-november-2025?clear_id=true At the same time, Prisoners for Palestine held in British jails without trial will go ahead with a rolling hunger strike from 2 November after the Home Secretary failed to respond to their demands including immediate bail, access to documents necessary for the right to a fair trial and the de-proscription of Palestine Action.

It brings together people whose faces, sometimes famous, sometimes activist friends of the artist, embody what it means to care actively and loudly. From the globally recognised to those working tirelessly on the front lines of change, these works explore the many faces of courage and conscience. Some are “in your face” as public figures, yet their activism is hidden in plain sight. Others are “in your face” through protest, direct action, and the daily labour of refusing injustice, insisting again and again, that another world is possible. The phrase plays with contradiction: the literal intensity of my painting style: Expressive, close-cropped faces that confront the viewer, alongside more elusive works where the image almost disappears into shadow. Activism, too, moves between visibility and silence, confrontation and grace. To be “in your face” is sometimes to shout in the streets, sometimes to stand one’s ground when it would be easier to turn away, but always challenging systems of oppression. Exhibited at The Blockwork Gallery , a grassroots community art space on an estate facing demolition, these portraits become part of a living act of resistance. They speak not only of those portrayed, but of all who refuse to vanish quietly. .... (Portraits in pictures are previous work.

Whilst the majority of the public are held to ransom to protect the established cartel custom and power dynamic. Today's customs and terms of relationship ensure protection of cartels that see poorer people as collateral damage in their persuit of accumilation. This will be very similar to the Titanic, where people on the payroll/staff lock the gate to poorer folk desperate to get out of the sinking ship to survive. It is quite common today. Transcending such practice and finding a different way communally or as community scaled up, will allow for very old observations and recognised needs to be realised meaningfully. Though sustaining a community consensus is hard. Human relationships are tricky. That's why rituals and customary language becomes important. Communal experiences and common reflection points unify. Personifications allow for greater human connection to concepts. At the moment there is a lot of cheering on the tax haven class, people backing their favourite billionaires. Critical of the way it works but then paradoxically arguing for the continuation of such accumulation game that gives a person power to censor the exchange of ideas and stories to maintain the status quo. The reason why we can't afford to give up on finding balance environmentally and relative peace amongst people's is survival at its core. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Not accepting pdf tried private message as well npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Something like this? Consensus on the Urban and Rural Commons: Community Trusts for Local Custodianship (integrated, plain-language framework) 1. Shared Understanding The urban and rural commons are the foundations of public life: soil, water, air, green space, and the cultural and digital resources people share. They belong to everyone collectively and must be managed locally through community custodianship, not distant ownership. 2. Purpose To create a unified model of Community Trusts that hold and manage shared land and resources in both cities and countryside. These trusts give people real authority to care for, use, and restore their commons under law—ensuring that what sustains life stays in public hands. 3. Core Agreements Recognition of the Commons The commons—rivers, air, soil, forests, urban gardens, community buildings, and data—are legally recognised as shared resources. Ownership stays collective; stewardship is delegated locally. Community Trusts as Custodians Independent, non-profit bodies established by residents. Manage public, derelict, or underused land for long-term community benefit. Operate under transparent rules and open membership. Urban Custodianship Redevelop vacant land, rooftops, and brownfield sites for gardens, food growing, clean-air planting, and social use. Keep land productive and accessible without privatization. Rural Custodianship Protect water sources, forests, and agricultural soils. Balance sustainable food production with biodiversity and rewilding. Governance Principles Local first: those who live near and depend on the resource govern it. Transparency: open records, public accounts, community voting. Accountability: periodic ecological and social audits. Interdependence Urban and rural trusts cooperate—city compost supports farmland, rural produce supports urban food security. Pollution reduction, biodiversity, and soil health tracked across regions as one ecosystem. Education and Inclusion Schools and local groups use commons projects as training grounds for ecological literacy and civic participation. Access open to all residents regardless of income or background. 4. Institutional Form National Commons Charter sets basic rights and duties. Local Commons Trusts register assets, manage sites, and reinvest all income into maintenance and restoration. Commons Council coordinates regional cooperation, data sharing, and dispute resolution. 5. Expected Results Cleaner air and water, healthier soil, and secure local food. Revived public spaces and reduced land neglect. Stronger relationships between citizens and councils. A living model of self-governance rooted in stewardship, not profit. 6. Consensus Line Urban or rural, the commons are our shared inheritance. Community Trusts are their living guardians—keeping the land, water, and air in the hands of those who care for them. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Have u created anything along those lines?

Good morning dear Lindsey, i can barely move and walk today, it has been 5 days and i am only eating soup, nothing else. So my body is not helping me anymore. She hoped to join the QUNO summer school in 2024, but she could not get out. No one could get out; 2+ million people trapped behind a seven-meter-high fence with barbed wire, military posts with sharpshooters and remote-control machine guns. A fence that trapped them under more bombs dropped by Israel than were dropped on London, Dresden and Hamburg combined during World War 2. And that statistic is a year old. Our bodies and the pain have become inseparable, and sickness remains an unrelenting part of daily life. With no medicine and no functioning hospitals, illness is ever-present, pressing on us without relief. Instead, she spoke virtually to the students gathered in Geneva. She spoke of her life, of her humanitarian work for the American Friends Service Committee, her childhood home now destroyed, her longing for life. https://www.quaker.org.uk/blog/afsc-in-gaza npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty What would they look like? npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty We are in an interesting conundrum, what is of value to the bit coin community? I like this poem The law locks up the man or woman Who steals the goose off the common But leaves the greater villain loose Who steals the common from the goose. The law demands that we atone When we take things we do not own But leaves the lords and ladies fine Who takes things that are yours and mine. The poor and wretched don’t escape If they conspire the law to break; This must be so but they endure Those who conspire to make the law. The law locks up the man or woman Who steals the goose from off the common And geese will still a common lack Till they go and steal it back. npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Bluetooth too npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Usb vinyl player, 12v, bargain https://image.nostr.build/df6bfb0f9ea3aa5c5853a8938f0adbbe4f6128d3fa3763b662e03687bc98365e.jpg npub1sqlt0hct78kekgvp4xfj86ua2s23lvcrhfupla6n3t8r78l0xuhs3nflpk Dusty Earth first calling for Winter moots to commune and enable each other to explore expanding skills and knowledge.

With in our members projects we work in areas of art, community empowerment, emerging economies, recognition of the value of life, ecology and proposals for a better future. Our philosophy is rooted in mutual aid and people power. There are many cultural and institutional arenas. With their own customs and languages. Some have been created to work in tandem with each other. They have their own guidelines and protocols. If we can communicate in creative ways in making things better then we have at least the means amongst us to create costed, researched proposals to ensure that peoples lives are valued and respected and we move to live in greater harmony with each other and the earths biosphere. So far we do not have a base, the life of deep campaigning is transient. Having a base to work from and rest will increase capacity to focus and deliver. We are looking for contributors to get these endeavours properly funded. We will encourage the knowledge of bitcoin and it being utilised in creating an ecology of exploration and empowerment. Please message me if you have any questions.

It has been custom expressed in civilisations of old. The issue is that it belies the fact that it is indeed a customary language made up and expressed in human incentived actions. The betrayal people will realise about the material suffering and life shortening living conditions, and exploitation to boot. It was all unnecessary and held in conscious intent to maintain such harm for the rewards to those with access to the proceeds from the incentived activity.
