what was once thought of as an inevitability has finally come to light as the Myanmarese protestors have now started to fight back with the forces with homemade guns, firebombs, knives in the town of taze Myanmar the protestors fought back to a tea with six truckloads of troops sent into disperse the crowd but were met with massive backlash as well as for the first time since the coup started received fire in return for their firing on the protestors, sparking fears of the situation quickly turning into an all-out civil war anytime now, the protestors fought off the six truckloads of troops only for 5 truckloads to be brought in as reinforcements, in a massive clash at least 11 protestors were killed and 20 wounded, fighting continued till the early morning hours, no word of any casualties have been reported from the soldiers side as of now, but suppression of such information is essential to the coup leaders in order to not boost the morals of the protestors fighting for freedom.

what led to the retaliation of the people with arms of their own, well the Myanmarese army at first came into the town of taze according to news meds with live rounds being fired, grenades being used as well as machine guns being used by protestors who were demanding the restoration of Suu Kyi's government aapp and managed to survived stated. myanmar's ambassador to London Kyaw Zwar Minn said he was locked out of the embassy after his deputy shut him out and took charge on behalf of the coup after he had been outspoken with his support for Suu Kyi and the voice standing with the people and the civil disobedience movement, its like a coup in the middle of London. Senior general min aung hlaing said that the cdm is the reason for the nation to have its downfall that it was the reason whhy the working of hospitals, schools, roads and offices as well as factories had been disrupted and stated that the CDM will destory the country,without a shadow of a doubt what we understand is that the people of myanmar are no longer going to be holding back, for long enough they say their fellow protestors die at the hands of the militray while trying to peacefully protest and this in the year 2021 just does not slide, people cannot be supressed and a militray dictatorship cannot be sustained, international outcry continues but with china and russia vetoing every move that is being tried to be put forth by the UN this is quickyl turning into an initiative that might lead to a massive difference of opinion and might end up with the militray at war against its the people in what might be the worst clashes we have ever witnessed in the 21st century if the west gets involved it would be without a doubt against the will of china and russia and might also result in myanmar being the new epicenter for boots on the ground fighting between numerous nations fighting either against the coup or for it.

The essence of a complex prison system one that needed to be overseas based on the sheer level of complexities surrounding it is only brought to light when we talk about so-called black sites, and on top of the supposed list of said sites is Gitmo, the worst of the worst, yet the only one to face backlash after being figured out by the general populous about what actually transpired there, the essence of the new world is lost when we understand that such facilities are still required to ensure that certain intel can be cultivated without the human rights quotient coming into play but is that ethical, should such a place even exist are we that primitive that we need to put people in proverbials holes in the ground to make them squeal their information which can bring us closer to bringing down a cabal against humanity itself? 

The Briefing: once the worlds most dreaded facility the Guantanamo bay detention center that had fallen into disrepair has officially been closed and the prisoners moved to another facility in the American base in Cuba, The prisoners at camp 7 were transferred to a facility adjacent to where the other detainees on the base were held as part of what US southern command said was an effort to increase operational efficiency and effectiveness. The total number of prisoners moved, however, is not disclosed an earlier number of 7 transferred means little in comparison to the total number of prisoners at Gitmo which was 40, camp 7 is the latest addition to the now well-known black sites where they were subjected to brutal interrogation techniques. among those held here, 5 were charged with war crimes for their roles planning the providing logistical support for sep 11,2001 terrorist attack. President Joe Biden intends to close Gitmo but that would require approval from congress to move some prisoners onto American soil for trial or imprisonment.

The conservation process is placing each mummy in an oxygen-free nitrogen capsule which can keep it preserved without being damaged from the effects of humidity especially we're talking bout bacteria fungi and insects.  mummies upon arrival to the museum will be kept in the exact same conditions as the nitrogen capsules so there will not be any shock for the mummy when they are removed from the body and put into the new high-tech units.

Accompanying each mummy will be any belongings discovered alongside them including their coffins, as well as a CT scan which reveals what is beneath the wraps and sometimes any breaks in the bones or diseases that affected the royals.

Horrors of the fishing industry

The Finishing industry is by far the epitome of everything wrong with the world when it comes to contamination of the oceans more than 50% of the waste in the ocean is fishing nets and other equipment, The worst of the worst comes to mind when we realize that the world as we know it is drastically changing and if industrial fishing does not stop today by the year 2048 all the fish in the oceans will be gone, bycatch meaning that when industrial fishing vessels try to focus on one particular species to catch but the methods they use end up catching a lot of other species as well which are then just tossed back into the ocean as dead fish is bycatch and is the reason for numerous fish species first becoming endangered and eventually going extinct.

There are a few hot spots around the world that are still holding on for dear life when it comes to natural habitat for numerous species of marine life, with industrial fishing enclosing on these parts of the ocean as well, it's only a matter of time till everything is lost, people talk about the amazon rain forest and how it is so essential to the earth well, more than 90% of the earth C02 is contained in the ocean-dwelling fauna, the ocean is the worlds largest carbon basin and without the ocean life it will be the worst geological catastrophe ever,

Trawling: it is when a huge net with heavy weights attached to the bottom of it is used to sweep the ocean floor for any and all fish the size of these nets can be big enough to sweep in entire buildings  or even numerous jumbo jets at the same time, The money: just like everything in this world it all revolves around the money, the people who are supposedly responsible for the safe to eat tags or ethically sourced tags on any and all fisheries products are in the pockets of these industrial fishery firms to begin with or even worse are a subsidiary company created by one of these firms to save face,
