Last [Friday’s shootings in Christchurch](https://www.oye.news/news/shootings/breaking-man-opens-fire-on-a-tram-in-the-dutch-city-of-utrecht/), New Zealand which ended with 50 dead and just as many injured have rung the global bell on a call for tougher media censorship. Yesterday an open letter from Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu, who is the head of Counter-Terrorism Policing in the UK was published on the counter-terrorism website. Basu’s letter is a plea for the UK Government to recognise the threat that the free flow of information can have on a nation and to do something about it. Basu points out the ironic fact that *“the same media companies who have lambasted social media platforms for not acting fast enough to remove extremist content are simultaneously publishing uncensored Daesh propaganda on their websites, or make the rambling ‘manifestos’ of crazed killers available for download.”* He said extremist propaganda that might reach tens of thousands of people through their own channels or networks has the potential to reach tens of millions if a national newspaper published it. He goes onto say in summary that: > ‘Society needs to look carefully at itself. We cannot simply hide behind the mantra of freedom of speech. That freedom is not an absolute right, it is not the freedom to cause harm – that is why our hate speech legislation exists.’ [source](https://www.counterterrorism.police.uk/acso-neil-basu-issues-open-letter-about-reporting-of-terrorism/) Basu continually refers to this dangerous information that the UK’s media is publishing as Terrorist propaganda, which he claims inspires other potential terrorists into action, he bases this assessment from the statements of terrorists his team have interviewed over the years. I think it is undeniable that information can be dangerous, it can reinforce beliefs and prejudices, it can raise one’s emotions causing anger and fear. This is true whether the information is accurate or not. Information which has been designed to produce a specific public emotional response, propaganda, is even more dangerous – But, it’s not the root of the problem, it merely accelerates an exceptionally small minority of people to do what they were inevitably going to do anyway. Censoring our media is a far more dangerous path to take, with dire consequences. A government which controls its media and dictates the flow of information is a Government who has a self-perpetuating power and thus unbreakable control over its people. While we have been condemning dictatorships across the World for decades with the oppression they place upon their people through censorship and their own propaganda we are voluntarily begging for it ourselves, a little bit at a time. ______________________ Read this article in its original format and thousands more over on our [WEBSITE](https://www.oye.news/news/freedoms/censorship/christchurch-shootings-inspire-global-censorship/)

This video is about a man’s fight for truth, justice and a plant. What began as a singular battle has turned into a massive movement to educate America about this environmentally beneficial plant. Emperor of Hemp exposes government and big-business efforts to keep the plant illegal, and takes you to the front lines of the pro-hemp movement. This is the film that contains the facts about one movement… one man… and one miraculous plant that could revolutionize the world. The best-selling book The Emperor Wears No Clothes blew the lid off the anti-hemp conspiracy and explained all there is to know about an easy-to-grow plant with infinite, non-intoxicating uses. However its worth noting that since the release of this documentary a different agenda is in place for Cannabis, an agenda which has sucked in many pro-cannabis activists. The agenda is to control the flow of Cannabis and thus profit from the plant. Many states in the US have now made Cannabis usage legal and this is slowly spreading around the western world. > *The war on cannabis that began in the 1930s seems to be coming to an end. Research shows that this natural plant, rather than posing a deadly danger to health, has a wide range of therapeutic benefits. But skeptics question the sudden push for legalization, which is largely funded by wealthy investors linked to Big Ag and Big Pharma.* [](https://www.oye.news/news/health/control-of-cannabis-monsanto/)]

The ongoing measles fear campaign has been going on for the best part of this year, with vaccination uptake in decline across many Countries in the West and the so-called anti-vax movement growing by the day, health authorities and their Big Pharma overlords have been working overtime to ensure the population is in a permanent state of fear over a potential Measles outbreak in their area. If you are a regular reader here at OYE NEWS you will be aware that much of the information being pumped out by these frauds are, well, fraudulent. From their mortality rates to their continual claim that vaccines are ‘safe and effective’. Well, now they have taken their ridiculous campaign to new levels of absurdity by introducing the results of a computer simulation which is predicting a 4000% increase in Measles cases in the near future. In the new paper published in the journal JAMA Network Open, the authors wrote: > *“Decreases in vaccination rates in schools with undervaccinated populations in 2018 were associated with exponential increases in the potential size of outbreaks: a 5% decrease in vaccination rate was associated with a 4 0% to 4000% increase in potential outbreak size, depending on the metropolitan area.”* This simulation worked by looking at vaccine uptakes, school sizes and populations of various state’s school districts as well as 2010 US Consensus data, this data was then crunched according to the simulations algorithm and then created a synthetic population the size of Texas to see how an infected individual might affect different populations. How accurate is it? Well, nobody knows, but rarely do computer simulations come anywhere close to predicting anything with and degree of accuracy. However, it is worth noting that of course measles cases will continue to increase initially as vaccine uptake declines, though over time a natural herd immunity would once again form in the population. This natural herd immunity would if left to fruition be far more effective then a vaccinated herd – however, the transition period could indeed be tricky, but ultimately worth it in the long run.

The plane crash in Iran that occurred shortly after the attack by Iran on US Military Airbases was originally attributed to engine failure, however, this statement from the Ukrainian authorities has since been deleted. For the latest news delivered to your LBRY APP just FOLLOW US.
