So was Israel promised that stolen Arab land 3000 years ago in their holy book or have they stopped promulgating that horseshit?

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... More good news. No one buys into the Zionist and Israeli narrative any more. Murderers are murderers. Genocidal maniacs are genocidal maniacs.

So far, February's been a dry month. This is what it means to be a working-class writer.
The page reads are in the USA, and they usually mean a book sale will be forthcoming.

So. What we’ve learned. Zionists despise the goyim who are basically their slaves. Non-Jewish girls are basically fair game for them to fuck. They control the media in the USA and the UK, and politicians of whatever persuasion are at their beck and call. Have I missed anything?

Imagine being an author and getting this email:
Hi Author, my friend suggested your book and that's why I messaged you.
Please, can you tell me what it’s about? Because I'm also A book promotion consultant.
Every day I get this kind of shite.

The Salt Path wars are back — all publishers should be nervous
Raynor Winn’s book about a walk with her dying husband set off a storm about the veracity of non-fiction. Can she win back readers’ trust?

Three films come to mind when I think of Epstein: Society (where the rich feed on the flesh of the working class); Hostel (where the rich torture and kill tourists for sport) and Eyes Wide Shut (where the rich operate a secret sexual cabal). Some even reckon Kubrick intended to include paedophilia.

According to the BBC Great British Class Calculator, I'd be in the lowest social class of them all - the Precariat - if I rented my own house, rather than owning it outright.
Because I own my own house, I'm Working Class.
That means a lot of people I know are in the Precariat.

www.amazon.co.uk/PRISON-COMPO... This is my first novel. It's inspired by James Joyce's Dubliners. The stories all have the same first person narrator, and they are chronological. The settings are Darlington and Birmingham.
This book last sold a copy three years ago. Beckett would have approved.
