Three devastating epidemics swept Egypt in the 1940's killing more
people than all the wars Egypt has fought in the twentieth century.
Egypt's Other Wars vividly reconstructs the nation's struggle
against malaria, relapsing fever, and cholera and explores the
unique combination of forces that put public health at the top of
the national political agenda. Egypt in the 1940's as in the throes
of a nationalist upheaval. Nationalists of all political ideologies
attributed the sever epidemics that the country was experiencing to
Egypt's status as an underdeveloped and colonized nation. The
epidemics were therefore viewed for the first time as not only a
public health crisis but also a political problem that called for a
political solution.
In this age of uncertainty, there is the need for ideas that
transcend the limitations of party political, or left/right
thinking, in resolving the unprecedented problems of our time.
Technological Civilisation is here presented as a focal point for a
fresh perspective of both national and international issues. The
tensions between America and China indicate the possibility of a
new Cold War, and this would be disastrous for the planet in
diverting attention away from the cooperation needed in attending
to climate change and other threats to the environment. In the
countries of the West, democracy as we know it is beginning to
disintegrate. This is made evident through the collapse of voting
figures and party memberships, as well as a spirit of disillusion.
There are some topics which politicians are loathed to address, and
in the sphere of the approaching environmental crisis, the
population explosion is the most prominent. Leading scientists have
clearly demonstrated, that even if all efforts are put towards
reversing climate change through maximising renewable energy
sources, unless population control is achieved on a sufficient
level, all will be in vain. The population question is probably
pushed ahead to a greater degree in this book than will be found
elsewhere as a topic for public debate. In concentrating on
Technological Civilisation, it is possible to discern the
inter-connection of problems, and this leads to constructive
proposals for the regeneration of democracy, the reform of the
financial-industrial system, and the emergence of an upwardly
mobile and free egalitarian society.
COVID-19 and the Global Predators is much more than an analysis of the current exploitation of humanity under cover of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. It discloses for the first time the actual blueprint and master plan that that was ten years in the making by global predators before the pandemic: a plan to reorganize the world in the name of public health.
Billionaires, government agencies, giant funds, and major industries collaborated years ahead of time to lay the groundwork for what would become Operation Warp Speed and the Great Reset in 2020. All this is disclosed, individuals and groups are named, and their plans for the future are documented. The book concludes with chapters on what America and the world must do in the coming weeks and months to save humanity's freedoms.
Many top medical and public health experts treating and examining COVID 19 agree this is the most comprehensive book about who and what is behind the draconian measures that are crushing individual freedoms and many of the societies and economies of the Western World including the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and Australia. Three of these medical doctors have confirmed this in their introductions to the book: physicians Peter McCullough MD MPH, Vladimir "Zev" Zelenko MD and Elizabeth Lee Vliet MD. They are echoed by endorsements from Robert F Kennedy Jr. and Paul Alexander PhD.
This book thoroughly documents solid answers to these tragic questions about the global predators who are reaping enormous benefits from COVID-19 suffering including wealth, power and the destruction of America as an opposition to globalism.
Who are the "they"-these Global Predators? What are their motives and their plans for us? How can we defend against them?
***A GUARDIAN BOOK TO LOOK OUT FOR IN AUTUMN 2021*** A brilliantly
warm, witty and moving portrait of our pandemic lives, told in ten
heart-rending short stories Love and marriage. Children and family.
Death and grief. Life touches everyone the same. But living under
lockdown, it changes us alone. In these ten, beautifully moving
short stories mostly written over the last year, Booker Prize
winner Roddy Doyle paints a collective portrait of our strange
times. A man abroad wanders the stag-and-hen-strewn streets of
Newcastle, as news of the virus at home asks him to question his
next move. An exhausted nurse struggles to let go, having lost a
much-loved patient in isolation. A middle-aged son, barred from his
mother's funeral, wakes to an oncoming hangover of regret. Told
with Doyle's signature warmth, wit and extraordinary eye for the
richness that underpins the quiet of our lives, Life Without
Children cuts to the heart of how we are all navigating loss,
loneliness, and the shifting of history underneath our feet. 'Roddy
Doyle is an absolute genius' J.K. Rowling 'The undisputed laureate
of ordinary lives' The Times

and drawing on faith resources. *Part One examines the physical and
mental impact of trauma, and offers a rapid response pastoral
toolkit and guidance on appropriate continuing care. *Part Two
offers pastoral and liturgical strategies for collective trauma,
suggesting 'habits of the heart' that will build resilience. *Part

is made from traumatising events, and reflects on recovery.
