The world is vast, yet our oceans - covering 71% of the planet - remain largely unexplored. As this view of the Pacific Ocean defines, we are only a minor presence on a blue sphere. Yet we are led to believe that human activity now controls a planetary system of such magnitude. Most of the Earth remains untouched and urban settlements cover only about 3% of the land area. While we debate Net Zero deadlines, we ignore the fact that the vast majority of the planet is unsuitable for agriculture or even human habitation - glaciers, rocky terrains, and deep wilderness. We have mapped more of the surface of Mars than our own ocean floors. Earth’s land area is a mere 149 million square kilometers, and it is far from a uniform human workshop. Deserts cover 33%, ice and frozen terrain 10%, remote forests 31% and mountains another 25%. These unseen frontiers do the heavy lifting, absorbing half of all human CO₂ emissions every year through photosynthesis and the soil. Surely it’s time to stop pretending humanity dominates a world where we have barely scratched the surface.

The Milankovitch cycles have been Earth's heart pacemaker for millions of years. Orbital mechanics have dominated throughout. Cyclical shifts from icy glacial to warm interglacial periods - then back again - are not due to CO₂. They are a direct mechanical consequence of Earth’s positioning in space relative to the sun. The three anomalies, known as the Milankovitch cycles, are 'eccentricity' (orbital shape), 'obliquity' (Earth's tilt), and 'precession' (a planetary wobble). These cycles dictate the distribution of solar insolation flux (sunlight), particularly at 65°N, which acts as the kill switch for ice sheets. Earth is now in the Late Cenozoic Ice Age Glaciation; oddly unnoticed in a crisis about planetary warming. Global cooling is far more significant. An already cooling climate intensified 34 million years ago with the glaciation and geographical isolation of the Antarctic continent. CO₂ is not the driver nor has it initiated the many warm interglacial cycles. Even the previous glacial period, known as the Eemian, was 2 degrees warming on average than today, yet CO₂ did not shift from a steady 295 ppm. If the sheer tilt and wobble of the planet provided the energy to retreat miles of ice, then CO₂ was at best a faint secondary feedback in this process, nothing more.

Every single Labour MP who voted to protect Keir Starmer's already finished political career should be utterly ashamed of themselves. It's now clear for all to see they hold parliament and the public in contempt. Mark my words. You will be punished at the ballot box.

Le récit d'une concorde judéo-musulmane en Palestine est un mythe révisionniste : - 1517 : sac de Safed et d'Hébron. - 1660 : destruction de Safed. Communauté juive rayée de la carte pour des décennies. - 1834 : pogrom de Safed. Trente jours de viols, de pillages, de meurtres. - 1834 : sac d'Hébron. - 1838 : second pogrom de Safed. - Avril 1920 : émeutes de Nebi Moussa, Jérusalem. - Mai 1921 : pogrom de Jaffa. 47 morts. - Août 1929 : massacre d'Hébron. 67 morts. Une communauté juive vieille de huit siècles liquidée en un matin. - Août 1929 : massacre de Safed. - Août 1929 : émeutes de Jérusalem. - 1936-1939 : Grande Révolte arabe. Des centaines de civils juifs assassinés sur les routes et dans les villes mixtes. - Octobre 1938 : massacre de Tibériade. Onze enfants brûlés vifs dans leurs lits. Le sionisme n'a pas créé la violence antijuive. Il a brisé la fatalité d'y être soumis. C'est en cela qu'il est, au sens strict, un mouvement de décolonisation : la sortie d'un peuple indigène du statut de dhimmi, la fin de 14 siècles de tutelle et d'humiliation imposée sur sa propre terre ancestrale.

We remember their sacrifice in all conflicts.

Starmer would not know how to go to war if the UK’s existence depended on it. Instead of going to war with Whitehall, Starmer simply needs to go. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

The Defence of the Realm vs The Defence of the Majority George Robertson has been a Labour man for sixty years. He served as Tony Blair's Defence Secretary. He ran NATO. When Keir Starmer needed someone to write his Strategic Defence Review, he turned to Robertson. That is the context in which Robertson's words this week must be understood. Britain's national security, he said, is "in peril." The Treasury is committing "vandalism." The government is gripped by "corrosive complacency." His co-author, General Sir Richard Barrons, was equally precise: the British Army can currently "seize a small market town on a good day." That verdict comes from the men Starmer himself commissioned. But Robertson said something else, something quieter, that explains everything. The reason Starmer will not act, he told the Guardian, is that everybody is "worried about votes." Left and right. Reactions. The political situation. He said it almost as an aside. It should have been the headline. The Defence Investment Plan was due last October. It has still not appeared. The military faces a funding gap of £28 billion over four years. Defence chiefs are meeting this week to discuss cuts of £3.5 billion. The Treasury, it is widely reported in Whitehall, is simply refusing to release money. Meanwhile the welfare budget runs at five times what Britain spends on defence. Robertson's remedy is direct: the welfare budget must be reduced to fund the armed forces. Within hours, Diane Abbott was on cue. Cutting welfare to spend on armaments, she said, was "appalling." Labour would lose votes to the Greens. That was the authentic voice of the constraint Robertson was describing. Starmer cannot cut welfare. A backbench rebellion of over a hundred Labour MPs killed his welfare reform bill last year. He cannot borrow more without alarming markets. He cannot raise taxes without another political crisis. So the system deadlocks. The review sits on a shelf. The investment plan drifts toward June, then perhaps beyond. And the men who wrote the review go public. Those who follow my work will know I have written at length about Starmer's paralysis on Iran. The inability to act decisively in the Gulf, the refusal to name what is actually driving his hesitation. The answer, in both cases, is the same. Starmer leads a coalition held together by Muslim communities whose votes he cannot afford to lose and whose instincts run directly against any muscular projection of British power abroad. That constraint does not stop at the water's edge. The same electoral arithmetic is now preventing him funding the armed forces. It is not a coincidence. It is a governing philosophy. When survival of the parliamentary party conflicts with the national interest, the parliamentary party wins. Every time. The government's response to Robertson was to say Britain's armed forces are "among the best in the world" and that Starmer is "determined" the investment plan will be fit for purpose. Determined. Not funded. Not scheduled. Determined. General Barrons put the timeline plainly. At the current pace, Britain needs ten years to reach genuine war readiness. British intelligence, alongside allied assessments, gives Russia three to five years before it tests European resolve directly. That is the gap. That is what "corrosive complacency" means in operational terms. Lord Hutton, another former Labour Defence Secretary, has called this the defining moment of Starmer's premiership. He is right, though not in the way he intends. The defining moment has already passed. Starmer has chosen. Faced with a direct conflict between what the defence of this country requires and what his backbenchers will tolerate, he has chosen the backbenchers. Robertson said he believes his country is in danger. He said he had to speak out even though it would be uncomfortable. A sixty-year Labour loyalist broke with his own government because he concluded the alternative was worse. And he was right.
