In the middle of the House of Lords, in front of the throne, is a large red cushion with no back and no arms. It has been the most important seat in the chamber for 650 years, and it is a sack of wool.

Edward III put it there in the 1300s. He ordered that his Lord Chancellor, when he sat in council, should sit on a bale of wool, so that nobody in the room could forget what the country was built on. By then wool paid for the Crown. The tax on every sack leaving the ports funded Edward’s wars in France. The Battle of Crécy in 1346 was fought, in large part, to keep the wool route to Flanders open.

It is still there. The Lord Speaker sits on it every day the House meets, with the mace laid behind. A peer who wants to join a debate has to get off it first and speak from the floor.

In 1938 somebody finally looked inside. Over the centuries the wool had quietly gone, and the Woolsack was full of horsehair. It was rebuilt and restuffed with fleeces sent from every sheep country in the Empire, so that the thing the Lords sat on was British wool again.

That is the symbol the nation chose for itself. Not a crown, a sword or a Bible. A sack of what came off a sheep’s back.

For 400 years English wool was the finest in Europe, and the merchants who sold it built the churches of the Cotswolds and Suffolk that tourists photograph today.

The Lord Speaker will sit on a fleece this afternoon. The hill farmer who grew it is being paid less for it than it cost to shear.

🚨 ANDERSON COOPER CAME OUT AS GAY IN 2012 — AND THE ANNOUNCEMENT MADE GLOBAL HEADLINES!🇺🇸

One of America’s most recognizable journalists, Anderson Cooper publicly confirmed he was gay in July 2012, ending years of speculation about his private life.

Cooper explained that he had always been open with his family and friends, but he realized that staying silent publicly could make it seem as though he was ashamed of who he was. He wanted to stand for honesty and pride.

At a time when many public figures feared the consequences of coming out, Anderson showed that living your truth doesn’t make you any less professional, respected, or powerful.

Why was the world so obsessed with Anderson Cooper’s sexuality when his talent as a journalist had never been in question?

Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is refuse to hide who you are.

The Alternative Theories
thenewsandtimes.blogspot.com…

x.com/mikenov/status/2110716…Michael Novakhov (@mikenov)Russia, Germany, Israel Hypothesis: The Missing Links – Operation 9/11 – Google AI
Alternative Theories
Origin: The phrase relates to alternative theories and books published around 2003 regarding the September 11 attacks, notably by former German state minister Andreas von Bülow (The CIA and September 11) and German journalist Gerhard Wisnewski (Operation 9/11), which were edited or published by Mathias Bröckers. [1]
Core Claims: These authors and associated speculative narratives questioned the official narrative, proposing various forms of complicity, advance knowledge, or covert operations involving Western or foreign intelligence agencies rather than accepting the account outlined by the 9/11 Commission. [1]
Official Findings: Official investigations—including the 9/11 Commission Report and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) studies—alongside broad historical and expert consensus, reject these hypotheses and confirm that the attacks were planned and executed by al-Qaeda. [1]

What Ilham Aliyev will never publicly admit is that his family came to power through the will of Iossif Stalin.

Stalin, who was Georgian, was openly Iranophobic.

Similarly, in Arran (northern Azerbaijan), where Persian-speaking Azerbaijanis remained numerous and held power, he expelled them to Iran (southern Azerbaijan) and installed more Turkic-speaking people there, including the Aliyev family. The Aliyevs became a dynasty of tyrants by Stalin’s will and no other. Turkey played no role.
