John Pilger has always been a voice for the disposessed and his docos from Palestine, Cambodia and most recently Venezuela, have been my main source of real news. While living in New Zealand is certainly a pleasant life style, it is a rather self centred country where the real world news hardly percolates the local press unless it has a local angle. Keep up up the good work. Len I’ve long been an admirer of anyone who stands up for truth

It resonates with me as the eternal truth: That without justice and respect for humans/individuals, no system will endure the test of time, and that every individual regardless of their colour or creed has the full and equal right under this universal law. I have just subscribed to your website. As you can see from my name, I am a mix of Arab and Persian with a hint of Jew in my ancestry born and bred in Bahrain; a unique combination, I might add! And which I adore because it gives me the right to be part of any of those races or have nothing to do with either of them!! It all depends on who believes in the universality of the human form. I see them as potentially perfect human beings but sadly they do not see that in themselves. I love every human and would long for a day when I see someone who mirrors my feeling. For the record, I have many friends who have similar feelings and meet many individuals daily who agree with me. What is needed is to put what we feel into practice. It has taken me a few years to do so, and I am glad to report that at the age of sixty, there is no other way to an eternal life except through a loving heart. Yours is a truly loving Hart. Thank you for allowing me to express myself. Dear Alan
