  • Azad Kashmir
    Azad Kashmir The home of British Kashmiris Waving flags of their countries of origin by some members of diaspora (overseas) communities in public space is one of the most common and visible expressions of their ‘other’ or ‘homeland’ identity or identities. In Britain, the South Asian diaspora communities are usually perceived as Indian, Pakistani, (since 1971) Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans. However, there is another flag that is sometimes sighted on such public gatherings as Eid festivals, Pakistani/Indian Cricket Matches or political protests across Britain. 1 This is the official flag of the government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. 'Azad Kashmir' is a part of the divided state of Jammu Kashmir. Its future is yet to be determined along with rest of the state. As explained below in detail, Azad Kashmir is administered by Pakistan but it is not part of Pakistan like Punjab, Sindh, Pakhtoon Khuwa and Baluchistan. However, as a result of the invasion of India and Pakistan to capture Kashmir in October 1947 and the subsequent involvement of United Nations, Pakistan is responsible for the development and service provision including passports for the people of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan, another part of Kashmir that is not part of, but is controlled by, Pakistan. Under the same UN resolutions India is responsible for the Indian controlled part of Kashmir. In all parts of the divided Kashmir there are political movements of different intensity striving for greater rights and autonomy, self-rule and/or independence. The focus of this chapter, however, is primarily on Azad Kashmir, the home of nearly a million strong British Kashmiri community.

    MERCHANTS AND MERCHANDISING IN PITTSBURGH, 1759-1 800 1 HOWARD C. DOUDS November, 1758, the Forbes expedition reached the "forks of the InOhio" and gazed at the smoldering ruins of what had once been the French Fort Duquesne. It was not long before the English conquerors realized what a valuable trading center they had captured. On December 17 Colonel Hugh Mercer arrived to take charge at "Pittsburgh," and on the nineteenth he wrote to Colonel Henry Bouquet, "Ifa Quantity of Indian Goods were got up with a proper person to deal with Indians, great numbers would come over with skins & furr.Ihave been oblidged already to refuse a good many skins, not having a Proper Apartment & besides that, too small acquaintance with the Trade."* The Pennsylvania Assembly meanwhile had made plans to control the trade of this region. An act passed in 1758 appointed three commissioners who were to regulate the profitable "traffick" with the Indians. Shortly after the fall of Fort Duquesne, the commissioners appointed Robert Tuckniss to go as their agent to Fort Duquesne, now called Fort Pitt, and establish a lawful trading post there. During the next four years the provincial agent was followed by other storekeepers who also braved the wilderness to open trading shops at the "forks of the Ohio." About the middle of April, 1759, James Kenny, a Quaker, arrived and set up a store as the agent for Israel Pemberton, a Philadelphia merchant. 3 Competition for the flourishing Indian trade be- 1 Read at a meeting of the Historical Society of Western Pennsylvania on March 30, 1937.

In addition the thesis also examines how convict workers responded to management controls: resistance or consent. In doing this the thesis explicitly applies labour process theory and feminist theory to the management of convict labour In three empirical case studies: the convict work gangs, the skilled Lumber Yards and the Female Factory in Parramatta. The convict gangs were an enduring form of work organisation for mainly (but not exclusively) unskilled male convicts.

  • Jewish Influence: an Introduction
    NOTE: "The list below is available on the internet. A random sampling of the names were found to be generally accurate. Since the source is the internet, the reader is advised to also authenticate. The link is: http://www.subvertednation.net/jew-lists/ The below link from the Jewish Virtual Library contains many of the names identified on pages 36 – 38. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/US- Israel/obamajews.html Jewish Influence: An Introduction We have been accused of having “Jew on the brain”; of being negatively obsessed with the Jews, and of being “anti-Semitic.” Yet Jewish influence over the affairs of the world are undeniably powerful, far out of proportion to their numbers. Their role in shaping public opinion through their media interests, and their mastering of the world of business and trade is pivotal to the world economy. As a group they are the most successful in terms of income and wealth and they have reached the highest echelons or the pinnacle of power in every field. Jews are the masters of Hollywood, they are the masters of all forms of media, radio, and television. They are masters of trade and commerce and banking, medicine, and law. The following lists we believe prove this reality. Jewish Lists The lists below are available on the internet. A spot check of several of the names found it to be generally accurate, though we cannot vouch for ALL of the names, and some titles may be out of date. The second list claims to be updated in 2012. They are followed by quotes on Jewish control.
