KANDHAMAL, India (PNN) - January 16, 2018 - A dedicated father in Kandhamal, India has created positive waves around the world for single-handedly constructing a five-mile-long road to connect his village to the main road in the next town, so his sons could be the first people in his family to attend school.

“We have been silent witnesses of evil deeds. we have been drenched by many storms; we have learnt the arts of equivocation and pretense; experience has made us suspicious of others and kept us from being truthful and open; intolerable conflicts have worn us down and even made us cynical. Are we still of any use? What we shall need is not geniuses, or cynics, or misanthropes, or clever tacticians, but plain, honest, straightforward men. Will our inward power of resistance be strong enough, and our honesty with ourselves remorseless enough, for us to find our way back to simplicity and straightforwardness?”- Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who was executed by the Nazis for participating in the German resistance movement.

January 16, 2018 - I’m tired of liars, scoundrels and cheats.

I’m sick of circus politics, sex scandals and partisan hypocrisy.

I’ve reached the limits of my tolerance for individuals who have bartered their morality, consciences, integrity, religious beliefs, and liberty for political gain.

Enough already.

Nearly 50 years after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his struggle for peace lives on.

MONTGOMERY, Alabama (PNN) - January 15, 2018 - When most people think of the great man, born Michael King on January 15, 1929, they see an advocate for peace, who is celebrated by the Fascist Police States of Amerika government - honored every year in January, on the third Monday.

However, what the government tells us and what this great man did are two separate stories.

PARIS, France (PNN) - January 10, 2018 - French actress Catherine Deneuve has said that men should be "free to hit on" women.

She is one of 100 French women who wrote an open letter, warning about a new "Puritanism" sparked by recent sexual harassment scandals.

NABI SALEH, Palestine (PNN) - January 8, 2018 - Sixteen-year-old Ahed Tamimi may not be what Israelis had in mind when, over many years, they criticized Palestinians for not producing a Mahatma Gandhi or Nelson Mandela.

Eventually, colonized peoples bring to the forefront a figure best suited to challenge the rotten values at the core of the society oppressing them. Ahed is well qualified for the task.

January 9, 2018 - Informing Iran, "The (Fascist Police States of Amerika) is watching what you do," Ambassador Nikki Haley called an emergency meeting Friday of the Security Council regarding the riots in Iran. The session left her and us looking ridiculous.

France’s ambassador tutored Haley that how nations deal with internal disorders is not the council’s concern. Russia’s ambassador suggested the United Nations should have looked into our Occupy Wall Street clashes and how the Missouri terrorist pig thug cops handled Ferguson.

NORTH HAVEN, Connecticut (PNN) - January 9, 2018 - All too often, terrorist pig thug cops will stand by and do nothing while their fellow terrorist pig thug cops beat handcuffed women, manhandle children, and otherwise deprive non-violent and often entirely innocent individuals of their civil liberties. The incident in this story, however, is not one of those times.

January 1, 2018 - Happy New Year. We always approach a new year with anticipation, hope, and also some worries. Last year was one of the strangest political years I have seen in some time. A new Republican president spent his first year pursuing more or less the same foreign policy as his Democrat predecessor and the Democrat Party spent the year looking under every rock in the Fascist Police States of Amerika for a “Russian connection” or any other reason to see him impeached over it.

TEHERAN, Iran (PNN) - December 31, 2017 - On the fourth day of "spontaneous" protests to sweep Iran just days after Israel, Saudi Arabia and the Fascist Police States of Amerika reached a secret agreement to do everything in their power to destabilize the Iranian government by diplomatic means or otherwise, Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard Corps vowed to crush dissent and take tough action if the unrest continued.

FENGQIAO, China (PNN) - December 29, 2017 - Mao Zedong once hailed Fengqiao in eastern China as a model for “mobilizing the masses” to galvanize Communist Party rule. Under President Xi Jinping, there is an app for that.

Launched in Zhejiang province last year, it offers citizens rewards for information as part of a new government effort to meld old-school totalitarian techniques with 21st Century e-commerce, big data, and digital surveillance.

There’s just one problem. Many people are wary of using the new technology platform.
