*FREE DOWNLOAD* - A melodic house tune, that concentrates on the plight of the Palestinians. Who are currently being pummeled - men, women and children - by the Israeli nation, with mainly US-made bombs. There has never been a massacre like this, that has taken place in full view of the world. Most folks choose to ignore it, including most of our mainstream media.

The vocals are by the late great journalist and documentary filmmaker, John Pilger, taken from the intro to his 2002 film "Palestine Is Still The Issue (Part 2)". He is sadly missed. He passed away in December 2023, just months after Israel started bombing the civilians of Gaza. He was likely devastated by the state of the World he was leaving behind. He worked tirelessly for the oppressed, including the people of Palestine.

Since March 2nd, Israel has blocked all food, water, medical supplies, etc. This is Israel using starvation as a method of warfare, again, and against a civilian population. They need to be sanctioned!

JOHN PILGER LYRICS:

A nation of people,
united in the oldest human struggle,
to be free.

The Palestinians,
forced off their land,
and later subjected to a military occupation,
by Israel.

An occupation condemned,
by the United Nations,
and almost every country in the world.
Palestine is still the issue,
Israel.

Israel is backed by a very powerful friend,
the United States.
So if we're to speak,
of the great injustice here,
nothing has changed.
What HAS changed,
is that the Palestinians have fought back.

Stateless and humiliated for so long,
they've risen up against Israel's huge military machine.
Although they themselves have no army,
no tanks, no American planes and gunships,
or missiles.

The Palestinians,
a nation of people,
united in the oldest human struggle,
to be free.
To be free, free.

Some have committed desperate acts of terror,
like suicide bombing.
But for Palestinians
the overriding routine terror,
day after day,
has been the ruthless control,
of almost every aspect of their lives,
as if they live in an open prison.

The Palestinians,
a nation of people,
united in the oldest human struggle,
to be free.
To be free.
Palestine is still the issue.

"Whatever It Takes" is a narrative concept album based on the true story of the 2019 eBay cyberstalking scandal - when a Fortune 500 company's security team launched a coordinated terror campaign against two bloggers who wrote critical coverage.

Ina and David Steiner ran EcommerceBytes, a small newsletter covering e-commerce from their home in Natick, Massachusetts. When Ina wrote about CEO Devin Wenig's compensation, he texted his Chief Communications Officer Steve Wymer: "If we are ever going to take her down..now is the time."

Wymer's responses became evidence:

> We are going to crush this lady
> She is biased troll who needs to get BURNED DOWN
> I want to see ashes. As long as it takes. Whatever it takes.

What followed was a "campaign of terror" - seven eBay security employees (including former police captains) sent bloody pig masks, a preserved fetal pig, live cockroaches and spiders, a funeral wreath, a book about surviving the death of a spouse, and porn magazines to the couple. They posted Craigslist ads inviting strangers to the Steiners' home. They flew from California to Boston to stalk their car and planned to break into their garage to plant a GPS tracker. They carried fake "Person of Interest" documents. One even pretended to rescue them - the "White Knight Strategy."

David photographed a license plate. The FBI got involved. All seven employees were convicted.

But the executives who gave the orders? The CEO walked away with $57 million in severance. Never charged.

This is a story about corporate power, surveillance turned against citizens, and the two-tier justice system.

Fifty-Seven

Forty billion in thirty days, paper rain in subtle ways.
They say “temporary,” we say “sure,” next crisis comes — print some more.
Charts go up, truth goes mute, bullish vibes in a three-piece suit.
Call it liquidity, call it hope, add some zeros, watch it cope.
