When You Know Nothing – BREXIT!

I am long in the tooth enough to remember the whole entry circus into the Common Market. The ways we were pulled and pushed then was a gentlemanly affair suiting the likes of PM Heath’s demeanour.

Today in the final throes of Brexit led by a satanic witch and party of moronic self seekers and would be plutocrats, the circus has the same ragged top with clowns littering its ring. Any semblance of a ‘gentlemanly thing’ went west long ago and before Rees Mogg’s plastic Ealing comedy type making the teens and millennials snigger in their soaked corner of crapulence cultivated selfishly through their latest hand held tech…..

Memory – The Dark Art of Not Having One

Can you remember incidents in your childhood whose repercussions impacted the whole flow of your life from that moment on? Perhaps you are lucky and can. Perhaps some are even more fortunate and have learned to understand that a particular experience became so revelatory and profound as to offer an opportunity that changes a life […]

The Trick of Control on Uncritical Minds

To the critically minded it comes as no revelation the war continually waging on the uncritical mind has reached overt and psychopathic proportions.

When the Defunct Farts Just Before Dawn

As a fit for purpose organisation NATO – the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation – is a busted flush. Yet over its decaying years it has been reanimated as the buffer, threat, offensive weapon or crude slot machine for profit (choose your definition) for the Master Shit Stirrers behind it all. Today Russia, China, Iran and […]

Practice Makes Perfect – The Palestinian Tragedy – An Event Coming to your Home Soon

As we witness the horrendous, callous and murderous events in Gaza today, the Nakba for all Semites, Palestinian and Arabs, no-one can help but be reminded these people are our brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, sons and daughters.

Khazaria – Kriminal Klass Sowing Terror Murder Deceit and Lies from 750 – 2018 — Living Zen Books – The Home of Inspired Publishing

It’s a well-established historical fact that Khazaria was destroyed by both Russia and Persia (now Iran) in approximately 1250 AD, and with good reason. Many years of prior very stern warnings had been given by Russia and Persia with no changes by the Khazarians. The reason for this final destruction of the Kingdom of Khazaria […] […]

Outrage Has Left the Building – Will All Silent Compliants Left Say Yay!

We are battered on a daily, sometimes hourly basis with even greater, abhorrent distortions of our world. The number of horrific acts of human bestiality are programmed into our minds, solidified by repetition and forced on us to accept the truths that are and always have been lies. In the Sixties marches would be mobilised, […]

Desperate Times need Cool Heads and Eloquency – Not Psychopaths

We are entering the end game of desperate times. Those that have their goals as world domination and eradication believe they have the Russian Bear cornered through their lies, deceit and coercive propaganda fed through the orifices of the Mainstream Media they control and have at their disposal 24/7/365. Having been on the case and […]

Jonathan L Trapman

Jonathan L. Trapman, author and photographer, has written since aged 9 and photographed professionally since aged 16. His first novel The Bull got fair marks at school and marked him out as an author in need of improvement. Defying his early detractors he began his professional career as a photojournalist, working for some of the top titles in Fleet Street at the time. Among them the London Times, Daily Express and a very short and boring stint with the Sun newspaper. Having been exposed to the amount of propaganda and half truths demanded from photo/journalists in the ‘70s and 80s, he decided his soul was worth more than shekels earned from the news rooms of corporate cronyism. Marking his further career becoming one of the industry’s foremost photographers he enjoyed getting to know the world, its peoples and a far wider vision of life on earth on others’ behalf and at others’ expense. He has appeared on TV and radio including the BBC, France Inter and online radio. He has been invited to speak at creative and literary conferences across the globe. From early 2012, in partnership with his wife, he has accomplished several translations of foreign writers. The most enduring, endearing and ground breaking has been the first ever, in nearly 1000 years, translation of 10th century Sufi founder and mystic saint Hoja Ahmed Yassawi’s Diwani Hikmet (Divine Wisdom) poetry and sacred verse.(www.diwanihikmet.com) His magnum opus The Freedom Cycle is an ambitious seven book project, Dreams and Realities being the first. Currently working on them to publish over the next few years. Jonathan presently lives in Somerset, UK.
