This mural of Palestinian photojournalist Motaz Azaiza in Burnage, Manchester has been painted by Akse P19 who said it was "dedicated to all journalists working in Gaza" of whom at least 83 have been murdered by Israel to date according to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ).
The CPJ have shown that the barbaric Gaza genocide is the most deadly conflict for journalists in history.
By a truly wonderful quantum fluke, the mural has been painted just metres away from where an organised crime boss targeted my vehicle in a hit-and-run attack on June 4th 2019.
If I hadn't hit the brake in time, I was dead.
The car was a complete write-off.
Journalists shouldn't be threatened, killed, maimed or imprisoned for undertaking their job.
Corrupted infrastructures don't want an open disposition of the facts...
... they want power.
And that quest for ultimate power leads to mafia taking over media to prevent unwanted truths becoming public and to provide profitable advertorial for projects and clients.
So.
The Guardian bleated how spineless money addict Jordan Henderson has "never wanted to hurt anyone" after he grabbed his booty and fled from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Henderson, who is third party owned (illegally), is a multi-millionaire who we are all supposed to feel sorry for.
Poor misunderstood Jordan.
Bless.
A similar approach is taken by captured mainstream media in the promotion of clients.
Lucy Ward, Alex Scott and Emma Hayes are superb commentators who also happen to be women.
Eni Aluko and Karen Carney, in comparison, are over-elevated and don't have the knowledge or the presentation skills to be given the amount of airtime that they receive.
It's appalling that Ms Aluko didn't feel like she could leave her home for days after a recent social media explosion against her just like it's dreadful that Mike Maignan felt he had to walk from the field of play in Udine last evening due to constant racist abuse from Udinese 'fans'.
But part of the blame with Aluko has to be in the positioning of inappropriately talented individuals in media posts.
The fan wants expert opinions not dross.
Aluko should stick to her extensive business interests where, no doubt, she will be guaranteed success.
The organised crime boss behind the Guardian football output repeatedly utilises the same template for getting fans (whose sport he is destroying for proprietary gain) to feel excessive sympathy for multi-millionaires (who are a part of the fleecing process of that proprietary gain).
It's repetitive and it doesn't wash.
There are many more deserving focuses in this blighted world than the stresses felt by the rich.
Let's hear it for Motaz Azaiza.
