Condemning the Just:


In the opinion of all men except that kangaroo court Sir Walter Raleigh was an innocent man. A Scotchman who carried Raleigh’s report to the court said he would have walked a hundred miles to see him hang but after hearing this unjust court sentence and Raleigh’s own testimony, he would have walked a thousand miles to save this innocent man. Never was a man so well liked by all who knew him as Sir Walter Raleigh. or so well hated by those who did not know him in such a short time. 

It was generally understood that Raleigh would spend some time in prison and his execution would be carried out later. It is a great gift to future generations that it was his time in prison that he turned to the consolation of writing and poetry. Here is one sample of his poetry: “The Passionate Man’s Pilgrimage: Give me my scallop shell of quiet...my staff of faith to walk upon; my scrip of joy; immortal diet; my bottle of Salvation; my gown of glory. hope’s true gage...and there I’ll take my Pilgrimage: 

It is said that a bystander ordered Raleigh to turn his head in the current position to carry out the execution. Raleigh replies: “What matter the position of the head if the heart is in the right place?” Then Raleigh jokes with the executioner touching the sharp edge of the axe and said, “Sharp medicine but a sure cure for all diseases.” It has been told that Raleigh even gave the signal for the axe to fall.

Organizations directly funded by Soros and his Open Society Foundations (OSF): Posted by Dr. Eowyn :  Source: DiscoverTheNetworks.org Advancement Project : This organization works to organize “communities of color” into politically cohesive units while disseminating its leftist worldviews and values as broadly as possible by way of a sophisticated communications department.

by John Rossomando  :   Britain's largest bank , HSBC, no longer will do business with the charity Islamic Relief UK due to worries over its alleged terror ties.

Islamic Relief UK receives millions of pounds from the British Department of International Development, the Times reported. Israel banned the charity from the West Bank in 2014, accusing it of laundering money for Hamas. The Israel Ministry for Foreign Affairs designated the group's parent organization, Islamic Relief Worldwide (IRW), as a terrorist front in 2006. "The IRW provides support and assistance to Hamas's infrastructure.

The intensive activities of these associations are designed
