Hetty Bower, belying her 105 years, has been an inveterate opponent of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and an ever-present on all the Stop the War Coalition marches over the past ten years.

John Pilger says, it hardly seemed coincidental that on the day before Cameron raged against "phony human rights", NATO aircraft - which include British bombers sent by him - killed a reported 85 civilians in a peaceful Libyan town.

The DSEi arms fair, is held in London's Docklands, almost next door to the Royal Docks Community School. Students at the school made this film about the arms trade taking place on their doorstep.

Watching for so long Saddam and his sons help themselves to whatever they wanted, Iraqis felt they had the right to take a few things for themselves. But London isn’t Baghdad. And Cameron isn't Saddam. So nothing to learn there.

Some thuggery is more worthy of condemnation than others. Don't hold your breath waiting for David Cameron's outrage over the "sickening violence" of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq or the bombing of Libya.

Imprisoned without charge by the US for ten years, British resident Shaker Aamer was cleared for release in 2007, but is still in Guantanamo, where there are fears over his health. Obama promised to close it within a year of being elected.

British high street banks, including the publicly owned Royal Bank of Scotland, are profiting from the manufacture of cluster bombs for which 98% cent of the victims are civilians.

This is an old story. Political leaders would rather stretch losing wars, how ever many lives and limbs are lost, than admit that the blood and treasure expended has been pointless.

On 3 August 2011, supporters of Royal Navy medic Michael Lyons gathered in solidarity outside the military prison in Colchester where he is serving a seven months' sentence for refusing to undertake rifle training before being deployed to Afghanistan.

As if we didn't already know, even after ten years of denial by the foreign office, a top-secret leak confirms that Britain has always been a fully signed up member of the torture club.

Ex-soldier Joe Glenton, pictured on his way to jail for refusing to fight in Afghanistan, writes in support of Michael Lyons, the Royal Navy medic jailed for the same reason.

The media is currently obsessing over itself, but the Murdoch melee has buried many other things, says MP Jeremy Corbyn. Like wars against poor people who just happen to live on top of oil and minerals.

For the 4,000 victims of News International phone hacking there may be redress. Unlike the relatives of loved ones killed in the illegal wars Murdoch's newspapers so enthusiastically endorsed.

Murdoch is a major crime boss being threatened with parking tickets. David Swanson wants him brought down for the right reason: for inciting mass murder coldly and calculated from behind a desk.
