He can be seen in London dancing manically on the fringes of demostrations, particularly about Palestine (he's anenthusiastic Christian Zionist); and on the odd occasion outside Stratford Station.

If Horan really isn't Gentlegreen, then he should be encouragedto post here anyway. Someone capable of crass stupidity like this



deserves to be given a voice

Political hypocrisy is very much in evidence in the Herald story of 27th January 2016, as Scottish politicians claim on Twitter that they wouldn't "stand by" as a crime against humanity was committed under their noses - WHEN THAT'S PRECISELY WHAT THEY ARE DOING TODAY - STANDING BY.

Indeed, at times, it seems that their most sacred principle of political faith is without fail to stand by, every time, to not raise their voices in protest, to not lift a finger to stop a crime by the police state, with the pathetic and cowardly excuse that the police state have "operational independence", even to commit crimes!

"Standing by" is for these disgraceful Scottish politicians precisely what they always do. THEY PRIDE THEMSELVES ON STANDING BY BUT SHAME ON THEM!

Holocaust Memorial Day: politicians pay tribute on Twitt...
Today is Holocaust Memorial Day as it is the day Auschwitz, the largest of the Nazi concentration camps, was liberated in 1945.​
WHAT HYPOCRITES!
WHAT MORAL COWARDS!

I have witnessed sickening holocaust hypocrisy as the Scottish political class precisely STAND BY and turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to my complaint about a CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY being committed today in Scotland by the police state under the SNP government of Nicola Sturgeon.

The state Nomenklatura have named this CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY as "police collecting and holding evidence under warrant for a pending prosecution in Aberdeen Sheriff Court".

In reality, the CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY is the seizure by Police Scotland of irreplaceable science data that I need returned to me urgently so that I can continue with my scientific duties to humanity. The loss of such irreplaceable science data delays or prevents the publication of my researched scientific knowledge which offers benefits to humanity.

No state and no officer of the state should ever dare to obstruct what even one scientist can do for the prosperity of the people and for the benefit of humanity because there can be no "state immunity" for crimes against humanity, as the Nuremberg Trials demonstrated.

I have published new scientific and engineering concepts and proposals regarding -
  • making renewable energy more competitive, efficient and practical
  • mathematics to maximise energy generated from wind turbines 'farms'
  • designs for super-sized hydro-electric pumped-storage schemes
  • an approach towards a cure for cancer
  • a prototype of a cheap cryo-surgical instrument - my 'freezerbaton'
  • H-shaped super-bricks for assembling stronger, lighter structures
  • other published ideas in various scientific fields

If you want an insight into those who deny the holocaust, then look no further than those politicians like Nicola Sturgeon who trust the state officials with "operational independence".

There can hardly be any doubt that were she asked, Nicola Sturgeon would deny that her Lord Advocate Frank Mulholland, her Justice Minister Michael Matheson, her Chair of the Police Authority Andrew Flanagan and her Chief Constable of Police Scotland Phil Gormley were allowing the commission of a CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY by the police state under their supervision.

A summary of my life history follows below.
gentlegreen said:
And why ? - given you have a university degree ?
Click to expand...
As you can read below, my political outspokenness has led to me being expelled by small-minded managers of universities, and their decisions enforced by the courts.
I therefore have a record of exclusion from universities which potential employers would tend to look to references for. Therefore the traditional employment as a professional scientist has been blocked by my political outspokenness. So I have to end up doing my science research while unemployed or on the sick and self-publishing the findings of my research.

Politics
While a student at the University of Edinburgh, I once attended a protest against the Duke of Edinburgh attending the Student President's Ball. On another occasion, I proposed to a General Meeting of the Student's Association that the Duke of Edinburgh should be dismissed from his appointment as Chancellor of the University.
1983
Began postgraduate studies in Micro-electronics but failed the exams.
Elected Science Postgraduate Students Representative
1984-1986
Glasgow College of Nautical Studies
Employment as a Lecturer B in the Department of Computing and Mathematics.
I resigned my employment as a lecturer after 18 months when I found the work had become repetitive, uninspiring and not challenging enough for me and I could not be bothered attending a scheduled teacher-training course for a teaching qualification with a view to doing more of the same work for years to come.
1986-1990
Politics
Labour Party membership. Supported Tony Benn MP for leader of the party.
Served as a public order steward at a public meeting addressed by Tony Benn in Glasgow.
Marched with trade unionists and Labour Party members accompanied with Glasgow Labour Party leaders such as Donald Dewar.
1990-1991
University of Aberdeen
Initially offered a diploma in Information Technology (Medical Physics) but the initial offer was not enthusiastically accepted by myself and eventually the offer of a diploma was withdrawn following disagreements regarding their refusal to allow me any opportunity for re-examination for the Master of Science qualification I had been studying towards.
1992 - 1995
Politics
Legal action by solicitors, acting for University of Aberdeen officials, sought and were granted Sheriff Court interdicts to ban me from parts of Aberdeen University campus. The same solicitors hired a QC and from the Supreme Court in Edinburgh a court gagging order against me was sought and was granted and which was later enforced with contempt of court proceedings to stop my distribution of leaflets criticising my exclusion from the University of Aberdeen.
1997
Politics
Campaigning for "Yes I agree there should be a Scottish parliament" unofficially, even when official campaigning was suspended when Princess Diana was killed in a road crash.
Interviewed on Union Street Aberdeen by Sarah Smith for Channel 5 News.
1999
Politics
Publication of a leaflet in the following terms ...

"1999: A CHALLENGE TO THE SCOTTISH LEGAL ESTABLISHMENT
Ideally, who should tell the unelected judges to "FUCK OFF, YOU JUDGES, YOU MONSTERS" and why, when and how?
Why should the people and the political parties ditch leaders who are seen to be ultra-loyal to the legal establishment? Why do we need to say, for example:
to Donald Dewar (LAB) - a lawyer - "FUCK OFF, DONALD" to Jim Wallace (LIB DEM) - a lawyer - "FUCK OFF, JIM" to David (CON) - a lawyer - "FUCK OFF, DAVID"
McLetchie
(Oops, sorry, the judges and lawyers cannot be told to "FUCK OFF" for legal reasons. So perhaps the above should be read as "GET LOST ..." or "SACK YOU ..")
For nearly three hundred years, the legal leeches, with their rotten cruel courts, have robbed the people of Scotland of their land, their hard-worked for wealth, their freedom of expression and on past occasions, their lives.
Their rotten, robbing courts have smashed down hard on home-grown initiative and ambition, driving many decent people abroad or beating us into silent submission at home. Their rotten robbing courts have caused us to suffer national decline relative to world standards, much tragedy and many missed opportunities.
The courts have allowed us to go quietly, cap in hand, to London or to Brussels but that has not served us particularly well.
Some people have come to resent this imposition but, to date, the people of Scotland have not given priority to gaining a stranglehold around the neck of the legal establishment. It has always been the other way around; the legal establishment has always had a stranglehold on the people."
Etc.​
Distributed "1999: A CHALLENGE" leaflet on the street to those attending a Labour Party public meeting and was quickly arrested by officers of Grampian Police using rigid handcuffs causing a very painful injury to my wrists and post-traumatic stress.
 
Peter Dow's LIFE HISTORY (continued)
2001
Aberdeen College
Scottish Qualifications Authority - National Qualifications
Biology Higher A
Politics
While studying for my biology exam at home and needing some peace and quiet, I was tormented by youths and drunks repeatedly banging on my ground floor front window wherein I had displayed political posters. Exasperated and at the end of my tether I swore at police officers who were not taking any action to keep the peace and I was arrested.
I inexpertly represented myself and Sheriff Colin Harris imposed a bail condition that I must attend for a psychiatric examination. After a failure to agree a venue to meet the psychiatrist, Harris withdrew bail and I was remanded in HMP Craiginches for nearly 3 weeks.
Terrified in case I might be sectioned, I retained the services of the solicitor Tom Cruickshank of George Mathers solicitors whom I ordered to enter a guilty plea on my behalf and I was then released with time served. I am bitter to this day about that injustice. I hold the Queen as head of state responsible for allowing a foolish official of the state such as Harris to determine the fate of a scientist or a republican such as myself.
2002 - 2003
Robert Gordon University
Enrolled in part-time study in Biomedical Science
Excelled in the first term exams but in the second term I was excluded for asking difficult questions and for political activity.RGU officials hired the same firm of lawyers to intimidate me off the campus as were hired by the University of Aberdeen in the 1990s though there was no court action taken in respect of the RGU.
From 2004
Authoring and publishing my Scottish National Standard Bearer website now at SCOT.TK
Developed my DowMod software for the administration of my For Freedom Forums extension to my website.
Posting -wide political commentary on national and international issues.internet
Carrying out independent scientific study and research
2007
Politics
Protested outside the Scottish Parliament against the invitation and of the Queen at the opening ceremony
2008
Politics
Appeared in a Scottish-produced human rights documentary, "The New Ten Commandments".
The ten-minute film chapter in which I was featured, reported on my republican protest of 2007 and the problems and restrictions routinely encountered in my political campaigns.
This film chapter was directed by David Graham Scott and entitled "The Right to Freedom of Assembly".
The New Ten Commandments - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The documentary premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival in 2008 and was broadcast on BBC 2 Scotland in December 2008.
There is a version of the "The Right To Freedom of Assembly" available on under the title "".YouTubeScottish republican socialist Peter Dow, author and protester
This film is my favourite example source to quote which explains my republican political viewpoints in only 10 minutes so you ought to watch it if you have not already done so.
2009 - 2014
Science
Publication on my website and elsewhere on the of more of the results of my personal scientific research regarding an approach to a cure for cancer, internet, renewable energy, mechanical design, medical instrumentation, economic, social, political and other sciences.
Politics
I signed up for Twitter and have made thousands of tweets on @ peterdow, none of which got me arrested or even attracted so much as a caution from the police
So I had happily assumed at this time that there was no issue of concern to the police with my tweeting or my publication of my long-standing republican political views on the internet
July 2014
Police raid, arrest, charge and Mr Shanks's petition regarding my republican, anti-monarchist tweets.

this is why you should always back up your data

I had multiple back-ups in a secure location in my home, that no-one except the police could have got to and I never thought the police would insist on taking all my data.

Backing up my data myself is the way I have always done my home computing, since long before "the cloud" was thought of.

Click to expand...
Well the statement I liked neither said "abhorrent" nor "OTT". So I was neither liking nor agreeing to the notion that my statement was either abhorrent or OTT.

I insist that my statement was not OTT and neither was it abhorrently OTT.

I abhor things which are truly abhorrent.
I abhor the holocaust which was abhorrent.
I abhor crimes against humanity in general which are all abhorrent.

I abhor the specific crime against humanity done by the state in this case by preventing me using my scientific research data in the service of humanity. I explained why such an act by the state to obstruct a scientist in his or her duties is a crime against humanity.

When we abhor something then we describe in it a manner which makes it clear why we abhor it.

We abhor the Dunblane Primary School Massacre so we describe it as such. We would never downplay or minimise that abhorrent act by describing is as "Mr Thomas Hamiliton's visit to Dunblane Primary School", as if that's all it was, "a visit".

It is right and it is appropriate - it is indeed "a nice one" - to describe abhorrent acts as they are - to tell it how it is.

When Steven Spielberg made "Schindler's List" - we could say to Mr Spielberg - "nice one, Mr Spielberg" - because he told it like it was - abhorrent.

Therefore it was possible, at least initially, to accept at face value that my comparison was a "nice one" because, telling it like it is, that the state's actions in this case amount to a crime against humanity, is right and appropriate.

The Nazi propagandists tried to hide and minimise the holocaust by describing it in deceptive terms, such as "resettlement to the East".
The Nazis didn't tell their crimes against humanity like they were.

States never admit to their crimes against humanity which they commit. States have their own deceptive nomenclature for their crimes against humanity which hide the full extent of their crimes against humanity.

As I previously said -
The state Nomenklatura have named this CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY as "police collecting and holding evidence under warrant for a pending prosecution in Aberdeen Sheriff Court".

Wikipedia - Nomenklatura
The nomenklatura (Russian: номенклату́ра; IPA: [nəmʲɪnklɐˈturə]; Latin: nomenclatura) were a category of people within the Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc countries who held various key administrative positions in all spheres of those countries' activity: government, industry, agriculture, education, etc., whose positions were granted only with approval by the communist party of each country or region.

Virtually all were members of the Communist Party.​

The "Nomenklatura" is a good word for the state elite who give the official state version of what they are doing - be it in Nazi Germany sending people to their deaths in extermination camps, or in Stalinist Soviet Union, sending dissidents to exile in Siberia or in Scotland in the UK, obstructing scientists in their duties by taking their scientific data.

The Nomenklatura in all states use an official state nomenclature for their actions and most of the people, the non-intellectuals, simply parrot the state nomenclature. They don't know any better.

I have no doubt that most Germans under the Nazis, ordinary Germans, even non-Nazis, watching the Nazi propaganda films would parrot the Nazis nomenclature for the holocaust - "resettlement to the East", ordinary Germans would have said.

Ordinary Germans under the Nazis would have thought the word "holocaust", had anyone dared to use that word out of earshot of the Gestapo, to be an "OTT" description of what the state nomenclature was calling "the resettlement to the East".

'"Holocaust" is OTT' - ordinary Germans under the Nazis would have said. They didn't know any better.

As some here today think that my description of the state acts in my case as a "crime against humanity" is "OTT".

My language is not "OTT". I am simply pointing out that there is the state nomenclature on the one hand and then there is the true consequence of the state's actions for humanity on the other hand.

So for all those who are oblivious of the fact, I am here to explain - taking a scientist's irreplaceable research data is indeed a crime against humanity.

Admittedly, on the scale of crimes against humanity, taking my scientific research data pales into insignificance next to the holocaust. It is a lower order of magnitude crime than the holocaust.

But a lesser crime against humanity compared to a greater crime against humanity is still a crime against humanity and so it is not "OTT" to call it a "crime against humanity" and compare it to another, far greater crime against humanity.

Probably the UK selling arms to the Saudis is a greater crime against humanity than the lesser crime against humanity of taking my scientific research data. Nevertheless, we should not shrink from bringing charges against the state which the state officials will not be able to wriggle out of simply because they control the police and prosecutors of the state.

We should be able to say - Mr Cameron - Ms Sturgeon - Queen Elizabeth - you may control the state today but you can be brought to account for the crimes of the state under you. There can be no state immunity for crimes against humanity.

PS. I don't go along with the so-called "Godwin's law" - supposedly that the first person who makes a reference to the Nazis loses an argument.

The only "Godwin" I go along with is this one - Professor Jon Godwin.
