Kurdish emigres protest Paris murders at Turkish & French embassies : London 11.01.2013
On 11.01.2013 Kurdish emigres in London protested at the Turkish embassy and then marched to the nearby French embassy to protest about the shocking mass murder on 09.01.2013 in Paris of three female Kurdish political activists including PKK co-founder Sakine Cansiz in what French police believe to be an execution a targeted assassination. The bodies of the three women - Brussels-based Kurdistan National Congress’ (KNK) Paris representative Fidan Doan, political activist Leyla Söylemez and Kurdish Worker's Party (PKK) co-founder and Women's Movement organiser Sakine Cansız - were discovered behind several combination-locked doors in the Information Center of Kurdistan in Paris on Wednesday by friends who had been trying since the previous evening to contact the women and who had broken into the centre after discovering bloodstains on the outer doors.
Very shortly after French police were called to the scene (and with what many claim to be suspicious haste), Huseyin Celik, the deputy chairman of Turkey’s ruling party claimed that the murders were the result of “an internal feud” within the PKK. Celik did not offer any evidence to substantiate his assertion, yet also went on to suggest that the slayings were an attempt to derail the peace talks which have been taking place in the notorious high security prison on mralı Island between PKK founder Abdullah Öcalan - sentenced to death for treason against the Turkish state in 1999 but whose sentence was commuted to life imprisonment when Turkey was forced to abolish the death sentence as part of it's application to join the EU - and the Turkish government.
The PKK have waged an often violent war against the Turkish government for the last 34 years as part of their campaign to establish an autonomous Kurdish enclave in South-East Turkey. Kurds make up almost 20% of the Turkish population, yet are forbidden by law to even speak their own language and have suffered greatly under Turkish suppression. Since the insurrection began in 1978 it is estimated that over 40,000 people on both sides have lost their lives in violent actions perpetrated in this conflict, and even though the PKK has been proscribed as a terrorist organisation by the USA, the EU, NATO, Syria and others, the cause of Kurdish nationalism enjoys a huge level of support in the region. Turkish authorities have been concerned about PKK fighters entering Turkey from the autonomous Kurdish enclave in Northern Syria.
Kurdish populations are present in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran, and have experienced many decades of suppression by their respective states as the Kurds attempt to loosely re-establish their traditional Kurdistan, eradicated during the Ottoman reign, and it is against this long background of armed struggle that has seen large numbers of ethnic Kurds fleeing to Europe to find sanctuary. The Kurdish people I spoke to in Haringey last night said that they no longer feel safe anywhere in Europe after this execution which they lay firmly at the door of what they describe as the "dark, ultra-nationalistic shadow government" operating behind the scenes in Turkey who are violently opposed to any form of settlement or discussion with the Kurds.
Huddled around tables in the large hall adorned with photographs of fallen comrades and a large centrepiece display of their political figurehead, Abdullah Öcalan, the Kurds were subdued and in a measured, reflective mood. During the day it had been established by French police that the women had all been shot in the head through the throat using weapons with suppressors (silncers), and it is initially thought that there was possibly more than one gunman. There was no sign of forced entry to the building, so it seems that they were known to at least one of the women - two of whom were slaughtered as they were organising suitcases for their journeys back to Belgium and Germany.

This is the part of basement of Palanok castle (Munkacsvár) in Mukachevo, which basement was used for such activities until mid-19th century, because Munkacsvár, then situated on Austro-Hungarian territory, was turned into all-European political prison after fall and demolition of the Bastille in 1789. Obviously, for the time passed all the blood was washed away. Taken with Sigma EF 12-24/4.5-5.6 EX HSM, bounce flash used © Ignat Solovey

Through the last month 20 Iranian hostages executed by ruling rejim.
in the time that rejim knows better than others 99% of people hate it ,there is no other way for them to be in
power but terror ,torture,rape,executions.Actually the world is watching that the 70 million Iranians are hostaged by a rejim that every passing day proves its anti-iranian and anti -humanity manners.
Although there are more and more politicians insisting that such rejim must be controlled and managed
from other side of the Iranian borders.they believe such manners lead us to a barbaric thoughts which is deeply eager to ruling Iran completely.

The execution room in the Geisterschloss (Haunted Castle) of Europa-Park.
Geisterschloss
Geisterschloss (English: Haunted Castle) is a haunted house decorated as darkride in the German amusement park Europa-Park located in theme area Italy.
The attraction opened in 1982 under the name Spukschloss, but both the interior and exterior looked completely different. In both 1996 and 2005 the attraction has been redecorated. Today the theme of Geisterschloss is the Italian Renaissance.
Visitors enter the attraction via the central square of the theme area. At the entrance stands an animatronic of a Mythical being. Dressed in a brown robe with hood. In one hand he carries a bird and in the other a candlestick. In German, the being says that he has been living in the haunted house for years. The talking is sometimes interrupted by being coughed by the being, water being sprayed out of his mouth. After passing the creature, visitors enter a hall where they serve the waiting for the lifts where the front show will take place. A chandelier consisting of bones hangs in the hall. There are singing busts of a few centimeters in the wall. The same busts are arranged in a larger format along one of the scenes during the ride. Once in the show the visitors are addressed in German. The space turns out to be a lift. When the elevator has reached its destination, a "hanged person" falls down from a hole in the ceiling.
After the show the visitors walk via a staircase to a turntable where one can take place in one of the doombuggies. Visitors are guided through the castle during the ride. However, there is no story in the scenes. This way you pass the dining room, dance hall, garden and execution room.

(SCANNED PHOTO) Queens Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, and Lady Jane Grey, were all beheaded here in the 16th century. The execution site no longer looks like this. In 2006, three years after I took this photo, a new memorial sculpture made of glass and stone was unveiled on this spot. One of the Tower's Yeoman Warders was explaining the history of the site to visitors when I took this photo.
Unlike Coulter, even supporters of capital punishment believe it should be done in a humane way and are aghast at hearing of this botched execution torturing the convict. Coulter’s inhumane response reminds us of why we should Never Trust Ann Coulter - at ANY Age, a new book available at www.coulterwatch.com/never.pdf.
Coulter commends executing teenagers who kill!:
“I enthusiastically embrace the death penalty [in the context of 14-year-old murderers].” – Ann Coulter, 4/10/97.
Coulter is OK with innocent people being executed if they’re guilty of other crimes:
“Sometimes people are innocent of the crime they were sentenced to death for, but perhaps not all crimes.” – Ann Coulter, 11/9/96.
Wants to kill people:
“I think that every day when I take the New York City subway. … I would like to kill all of them. I can analyze that and stop myself from killing people on a New York City street.” – Ann Coulter, 7/11/00

A New Vision for the Future
Making its debut at the 2017 Geneva International Motor Show, the EXP 12 Speed 6e concept represents a bold statement on the future of electric cars – and of luxury mobility.
Designed to transform the EV sector in both concept and execution, the EXP 12 Speed 6e fuses the unrivalled hand craftsmanship for which Bentley is famous, with electric performance, heart-stopping design and the range of a true grand tourer.
The EXP 12 Speed 6e is a statement of Bentley’s intention to create the world’s first true luxury electric sports car – and an overt invitation for the public to feed back on Bentley’s vision for the road ahead.
Exterior Design
The EXP 12 Speed 6e is not just an opportunity to envision an electric Bentley. It represents the future of Bentley design, both inside and out.
The exterior body shell is a sleek expression of sports car design, inspired by contemporary architecture, aircraft fuselages and the geometry of the natural world.
A natural evolution of Bentley’s design DNA, it takes the marque’s trademark muscular haunch and powerline to exhilarating new heights. The short front overhang, long bonnet and wide, planted rear aspect all contribute to an unmistakable sense of speed, while the iconic matrix grille features an exquisite smoked stainless steel finish. Contrasting copper highlights offer subtle acknowledgement of the car’s status as a fully electric vehicle, while an illuminated ‘6’ logo can be seen through the grille.
Throughout the car, form coexists with function to support a more sustainable future. The twin bonnet scoops, for example, double as heat sinks, keeping down the temperature of the car’s batteries and drivetrain, without the need for additional cooling technology.
Interior Design
Bentley’s future is one of innovative materials as well as inventive technology. The entire central tunnel, for example, is hewn from a solid piece of glass, encompassing a high-definition OLED curved display. All principle onboard controls are accessible from here, including navigation, entertainment and climate control.
Just as they do on the outside of the car, copper details provide visual interest throughout the cabin, adorning the gear selector and Bentley Dynamic Drive dial control. Even the veneer panels inside the doors feature copper accents, drawing the eye to the handcrafted, natural wood finish.
Tomorrow’s luxury customers will expect intuitive technology and traditional craftsmanship to be integrated seamlessly – a demand that has dictated much of the car’s groundbreaking design. The wing mirrors dispense with the usual reflective glass in favour of cameras, feeding visual input directly to the dash. It’s one more example of Bentley’s future design direction – and the company’s ongoing commitment to exceeding customer expectations in everything it does.
Electric Performance
Luxury is only one side of the Bentley equation. That’s why the EXP 12 Speed 6e has been conceived as more than just a showcase of design and craftsmanship. It is an entirely new format for both urban and open-road driving.
Electric power provides an opportunity to exceed the performance limits of cars built on the conventional combustion engine. From a standing start, electric motors deliver phenomenal levels of torque, which translates into heart-stopping acceleration.
In order to deliver a true grand touring experience, the EXP 12 Speed 6e would be built with the capacity to drive from London to Paris or Milan to Monaco on a single charge. This impressive range would be supported by fast recharging, thanks to inductive technology.
New Technology, New Thinking
Not all new concept cars are truly innovative. The EXP 12 Speed 6e is about much more than a car, however. It represents a first step on a journey that will change the way today’s drivers think about mobility and what it can be. From rapid charging and fast acceleration to a world of connected lifestyle services, where onboard concierge software responds to complex voice input, the world of luxury transport is set to change immeasurably.
For Bentley’s design team, this means looking beyond the horizon, to a day when drivers become passengers and car ownership gives way to transport as a service. The car of the future will be more luxurious, more sustainable and more autonomous than ever before.

March 2017
Pax Christi, the national Catholic peace movement organization, sponsored stations of the cross in front of the Florida Capital building in Tallahassee on Good Friday, 2008. The event was open to all, and used the stations of the cross to all for peace, including the end of the death penalty.
As they said at the eleventh station of the cross, which is the station in which people contemplate when Jesus was nailed to the cross, "Jesus is executed by being nailed to a piece of wood, hung naked, exposed to taunts, reduced to an object of ridicule. Public crucifictions continue today, only in place of wooden beams, there is a gas chamber, electric chair, injection, firing squad. The death penalty is not our right."
Their ending prayer, Prayer for a New Society" went, in part:
ALL-Nourishing God, your children cry out for help against the violence of our world: Where children starve for bread and feed on weapons; starve for vision and feed on drugs; starve for love and feed on videos; starve for peace and die murdered in our streets....
Liberating God, release us from the demons of violence. Free us today from the disguised demon of deterrence that put guns in our pillows and missiles in our skies. ...Cleanse us from all justification for violence and war....
Abiding God, loving renewer of the human spirit, unfold our violent fists into peaceful hands; stretch our sense of family to include our neighbors; stretch our sense of neighbor to include our enemies until our response to you finally respects and embraces all creation as precious sacraments of your presence...."
Here's more information about the death penalty:
"Since 1973, over 120 people have been released from death row with evidence of their innocence. (Staff Report, House Judiciary Subcommittee on Civil & Constitutional Rights, Oct. 1993,with updates from DPIC) . From 1973-1999, there was anaverage of 3.1 exonerations peryear. From 2000-2007, there has been an average of 5 exonerations per year.
• The most comprehensive study in the country found that the death penalty costs North Carolina $2.16 million per execution over the costs of sentencing murderers to life imprisonment. The majority of those costs occur at the trial level. (Duke University, May 1993).
• Enforcing the death penalty costs Florida $51 million a year above what it would cost to punish all first-degree murderers with life in prison without parole. Based on the 44 executions Florida had carried out since 1976, that amounts to a cost of $24 million for each execution. (Palm Beach Post, January 4, 2000).
(Dallas Morning News, March 8, 1992).."
Commander's log, date 05.03.2735:
My execution came and went. I had been 'cuffed again, and a hood had been put over my head. I was ready to die. I figured I could at least die with the satisfactory knowledge that I hadn't given away any DDF secrets. But then I heard some screams. They were the screams of the guards, as Jim was decapitating them. He rescued me, and I was quite astounded to see him. After all, I had believed him to be dead. But he explained the situation to me. He had actually come across a DM underwater patrol in the pond. It was the DM underwater patrol's blood I had seen, not Jim's. But he had gotten caught on a rock down there, so it was a while before he surfaced. He found a lone DM soldier and killed him to get weapons. Then he gathered intel and found me. And what a relief that was! Now, Jim and I shall return to base to resume our normal activities.
Jeremy Croup, Commander of the DDF, signing out.
This is a picture of Auschwitz Birkenau. Also known as Auschwitz two. This was the camp designed as final sollution for the jews. This camp is specially designed for the extermination of the jews.
Here you see the track where thousands of people arrived. The drove to the left, the SS-ers and jewish special assigned people asked them to leave their lugage which 'would' be stored for them. After that they would be seperated, men one side, women the other. SS staff selected those capable for work. Those not capable for work were mostly executed the same day.
'Gentle visitor pause awhile : where you stand death cut away the light of many days : here jewelled names were broken from the vivid thread of life : may they rest in peace while we walk the generations around their strife and courage : under there restless skies’
A memorial stands on the actual execution site where famous people lost their heads. Queen Anne Boleyn, Lady Jane Grey (who was only 16), Queen Catherine Howard (another unfortunate wife of Henry VIII), and Margaret Pole, a noblewoman who had royal blood.
Anne was beheaded by a French swordsman, as she knew axe beheadings were sometimes messy. Margaret Pole wasn't so lucky; the 60 something year old was hacked when the axeman didn't chop her head off in one swing. Some say she ran around bleeding to death while the axeman chased after her (a popular myth, but probably untrue). She did die horribly though and it took more than one swing to kill her.
Now this poignant and sad memorial rests in place. This is fairly recent. The beefeater said they had an older and less plain memorial before. You can find the memorial on Tower Green, just right outside the Tudor-style houses and St Peter Ad Vincula Chapel (where the beheaded were laid to rest).
