THAT ANCIENT DOCUMENT A CRITIQUE OF THE USA CONSTITUTION, WHERE THE WORD DEMOCRACY DOES NOT EXIST How many read the Constitution of the Federal Republic of the United States of America? Of those who read it, how many understood it, and realised the consequences it has on We the People, and on the rest of the world? This is a controversial post. It will make many angry, many sad, many shocked, many surprised. I ask you to read the complete document, including the integral texts, and the footnotes, of: THE CONSTITUTION OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA; UN UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS; EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS; THE CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF ITALY; THE CONSTITUTION OF THE KINGDOM OF THE NETHERLANDS. You can also find the text of all footnotes in numerical order at end of this document. You will realise the fundamental differences with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of the United States of America. I welcome all comments. Insults ...

𝗚𝗔𝗭𝗔, 𝗛𝗔𝗠𝗔𝗦, 𝗜𝗦𝗥𝗔𝗘𝗟, 𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗢𝗖𝗜𝗗𝗘, 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗜𝗕𝗟𝗘 Don’t mention the war. This is a controversial post. The tragedy of the “war” in Gaza is not caused by 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, where Hamas and the State of Israel aim at cancelling each other from the map. It is an 𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 that already caused tens thousands of innocent victims of both sides. Where brutal assassinations, and ruthless devastations are the rules of the game. Since the horror of 7 October 2023, one can read thousands of daily posts on all social media, and newspaper articles on the “war” in Gaza. Most posts and articles support either the State of Israel, or the Palestinians. Many posts are full of hatred against the Jews, or against the Palestinians. Some posts even support Hamas. Most posts are written based on blind prejudice, without knowledge of the history of the Jews, of the State of Israel, of the history of Palestine, and of what and why is really happening in G...

MIGRATORY BLACK SWIFT USA The migratory black swift is a migratory bird that migrates north from Latin America, Haiti, black Africa and other filthy shores. Arriving at the USA border, it flies over USA air space. It lands on the homes of local birds, occupies them, and begins mating without restraint, generating millions of filthy black swifts, which infect the lives of other local birds. They feed by stealing feed from local white bids anywhere they are. During the gestation period, they abandon their mates to rape the females of local birds. Their favourite pastimes are ambushes in parks, public gardens, train stations, on the streets, and shops, where they massacre local white birds with lethal beak slashes. They litter churches with their excrement. When injured, they invade veterinary practices, screaming, and stealing the beds for local white birds. Reduced to desperation, and possessed by uncontainable hatred, the League of White Birds declare a flight emergency. They organise ...

  PRIVATE EYE MAGAZINE, THE BIBLE OF SATIRE, PRESENTS THE YEAR 2025 CE IN REVIEW STARRING THE MOUNTBATTENS, BEN, VLAD, KEIR, AND DONALD Private Eye is a British fortnightly satirical and current affairs news magazine, founded in 1961, 64 years ago! It is published in London and has been edited by Ian Hislop since 1986. The publication is widely recognised for its prominent criticism and lampooning of public figures. It is also known for its in-depth investigative journalism into under-reported scandals and cover-ups. The privately owned magazine Private Eye is Britain's best-selling current affairs news magazine, and such is its long-term popularity and impact that many of its recurring in-jokes have entered popular culture in the United Kingdom. With a "deeply conservative resistance to change", it has resisted moves to online content or a glossy format: it has always been printed on cheap paper and resembles, in format and content, a comic ...

Van: Astsen voor Gaza 𝐀𝐚𝐧: 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 Caspar Veldkamp , Terwijl u uw handtekening zet onder een brief waarin u oproept tot een staakt-het-vuren, ontvangen wij dagelijks beelden van onze collega’s in ziekenhuizen in Gaza. 📍 Beelden van uiteengereten kinderen. 📍 Van uitgemergelde mensen die hun laatste adem uitblazen. 📍 Van artsen die, zonder medicijnen of middelen, de meest onmenselijke keuzes moeten maken 📍 Van artsen die worden ontvoerd, ambulances die worden vernietigd, en medici die worden vermoord.

Suspend the EU–Israel trade agreement. Stop the genocide. For over a year and a half, we’ve been witnessing a brutal war tear through Gaza. The atrocities of the October 7 attack by the terrorist group Hamas — which is still holding hostages — were weaponised by the Israeli government not to pursue justice, but to unleash a devastating war on the Palestinian people. This is the first genocide broadcasted live on social media. Seen through the eyes of doctors working by flashlight, parents pulling their children from rubble, journalists sending their final messages before being killed.. For a long time, all we could do was watch, share, mourn and feel powerless. More than 54,000 people have been killed — mostly civilians. More than half of all the victims are women and children. 2 million people — nearly the entire population of Gaza — have been displaced. The Israeli army is systematically destroying hospitals, schools, and basic i...

THIS IS THE USA TODAY © Paolo Bolzoni, March 2025 Transposition of "Those Were the Days" Original music by Boris Fomin (1900–1948) Original English lyrics by Gene Raskin Once upon a time there was a land When we had guns loaded with flowers Remember how we laughed away the hours Think of all the great freedom we had on hand? Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the freedom we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were naive and sure to have our way Those were the days, my friend When the White House and we’d blend We thought they'd never end We loved the land forever and a day We had the freedom we chose For we knew the President felt the same way Then the Presidents told us truth We kept our freedom all the way If by chance I saw you in the booth We'd smile at one another and we'd say Here we fight, we fight Here we fight, we fight Stars and Stripes forever may glow Where are ...

ON SOVEREIGNTY, TERRITORY, OCCUPATION, AND THE RULE OF LAW COUNTRIES are political legal entities universally recognised by the world community. Countries differ from NATIONS , which are the peoples who share common heritage, history, language, values, traditions, beliefs, sometimes religion. For example, England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are four Nations part on the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.   INTERNATIONAL LAW is the basis for Country. Countries are Full Members of the UNITED NATIONS , with the only exception of the Holy Seat (the Vatican Absolute Monarchy) which has the Observer Status.   All Countries are Sovereign within their own territory . Every Country has the unrestricted and indisputable right to defend itself, its borders, and its people(s) from foreign aggression, invasion, submission, restriction of freedom and rights. The territory , the international borders, is defined by International Law , and can only be modified ...

OH, HOW A BEAUTIFUL WORLD Transposition of OH, COM'È BELLO VIVERE © I Gufi, 1968 © Paolo Bolzoni, 2025 I Gufi (Roberto Brivio, Gianni Magni, Lino Patruno, Nanni Svampa) are legends of Milanese cabaret and my masters. Lino is foremost world master and scholar of classic jazz. I wrote song lyrics and theatre scripts with Roberto and Lino. Oh, how beautiful it is to live In this useless world Where hate and crimes Make up the only dignity Where in the end if things go badly There are those who will save you If you have a mother, forget her If you go to war, hide In the end medals and glory Time will fade memories away And those who returned already forgot Those who didn’t come back If you seek help, shoot yourself If you have a contract, burn it No one except someone Will ever honour it Betray those who trusted you Loyalty is only for losers If you pray to the saints, stop If you go to hell, stay there You’ll find many friends there Who will warm you Maybe it’s hot, but why should you...

Giovanna Paladino, PhD Group Senior Director - Head of Technical Secretariat of the Presidency IntesaSanpaolo, Director and Curator Museo del Risparmio, Senior Director Fondo Beneficenza Office of ISP. TRANSLATED TEXT Last Friday, the world day refugees was celebrated, a way to remember that in a world full of wars and persecutions there are people who have to flee their country to stay in the world and who can, with their talents, if welcomed and respected, also help the progress of our countries. Among the many projects that we support in 2025 with the ISP Charity Fund, I want to mention two that for their impact and design can be considered best practices. We support UNHCR for the creation of an integrated program of protection and empowerment of refugee and asylum-seeking women who have survived or are at risk of gender-based violence in Sicily (Catania, Syracuse, Ragusa) and Lazio (Rome, Frascati). 1,400 refugees and asylum seekers will be involved thanks to the work of a multidis...

Jan Paternotte Member of the Netherlands Parliament for D66 ENGLISH TRANSLATION Why is the Netherlands not taking measures against the ethnic cleansing of Gaza? Because the VVD always blocks concrete action. And therefore never has a majority in favour. The VVD spokesperson lashes out wildly when you point this out. "Naive!" "Predicant's language!" As if the VVD members have been trained by Trump. I just don't get it. We stand side by side with the VVD to support Ukraine and to march in the pride in Budapest, because freedom and human rights are at stake there. Together we call what Putin does war crimes. Of course! Now people in Gaza are being shot dead while queuing for food. Hundreds. That is even the order that soldiers are given, they tell the Israeli newspaper Haaretz. The UN and other aid organisations have been banned by Israel. It is such a gross violation of everything we call humanity. And the Netanyahu government makes no secret of w...

The most wonderful love poem ever written. The unity of all beings, no hate, no wars, no discrimination. Pierce Bysshe Shelley. Love’s Philosophy, 1819 The fountains mingle with the river And the rivers with the ocean, The winds of heaven mix forever With a sweet emotion NOTHING IN THE WORLD IS SINGLE, ALL THINGS BY A LAW DIVINE IN ONE ANOTHER'S BEING MINGLE Why not I with thine? See the mountains kiss high heaven, And the waves clasp one another No sister-flower would be forgiven If it disdain'd its brother
 And the sunlight clasps the earth, And the moonbeams kiss the sea What is all this sweet work worth If thou kiss not me?

HERE WE ARE BURIED FOREVER - THE BALLAD OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDER I Gufi, 1968, by Lino Patruno - Walter Valdi I Gufi are a legend of Milanese cabaret This wonderful poem plays a tribute to the unknown solder. Solders who died in all wars, fighting a war they did not ask for. It does not matter whether they were the enemies or the victims. They are just ashes, they died for wars too often unnecessary. Today, the world faces the war in Ukraine, initiated by the Russian Federation. The world witnesses the horrifying atrocities and the crimes committed the Russian armed forces. The world witnesses the war in Gaza, Yemen, genocides in Gaza, Africa and in Asia. Their leaders never listened to this poem. It’s high time they do. TEXT BY LUIGI LUNARI Here we are buried forever; and for us, the world stopped that day; somebody mourned us, somebody still remembers us from time to time.   However, a few steps from here, a few steps from where the others say ‟may they rest in peace”, cars swoosh p...

DE DISCRIMEN GENTIS - ON RACIAL DISCRIMINATION -  WHAT DID PHILOSOPHERS SAY? Racial discrimination plagued mankind since the dawn of civilisation. Fuelled by ignorance and fear, religion played, and continues to play the starring role. In a German-language letter to philosopher Eric Gutkind, dated 3 January 1954, the physicist Albert Einstein wrote: “The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this.... For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions . And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people.... I cannot see anything “chosen” about them.” It is a great comfort to see that, with only a couple of exceptions...
