On The Edge Of A “Sexual Ravine” – One Giant Leap Forwards For Womanhood
Most women find themselves constantly on the edge of a dangerous and ubiquitous “sexual ravine.” Those who fall into the trap of the ravine no longer see themselves as unique and valuable individuals.

If Climate Change Doesn’t Kill Us, Selfishness Will
Having had an umptienth encounter with human selfishness, a recurring question haunts my mind. Namely, why are people so selfish and inconsiderate towards others?

Auschwitz – Ordinary People, Extraordinary Lives
No one wanted to know. No one wanted to listen to what I had to say. But I made a commitment that people don’t want to hear but I’m going to make sure that they will. Not in the history of mankind has there been industrial killing on this scale. If something happened once, there […]

The Morality Of Western Arms Sales – From Argentinian Tango’s To Arabian Nights
The morality of Europe’s foreign policy is not as one might hope. The UK was making profits from selling arms to Israel, whilst Tony Blair was being paid by Arabs to ensure that there is peace in the region. It doesn’t sound quite right, does it. In 2017, former UK prime minister Tony […]

An Open Letter To All Women
A Facebook user passed judgement on a film he hasn’t seen, a blog post he hasn’t understood, and a woman’s condition he knows nothing about. We must all agree that, on the whole, women are in a much better position than 70 years ago. However, we must also acknowledge that the views held by many […]
Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte – A Martyr To Multinationals?
Dutch politics is currently preparing itself for a war of words concerning the ruling coalition’s proposals to scrap Dutch dividend tax. Under present rules, companies have to pay 15% tax over profits that are distributed to shareholders. This sum is withheld on the amount that a shareholder receives. However, shareholders who live in the Netherlands […]
