Yesterday my mother passed away peacefully at Southampton University Hospital after battling brain cancer for the last year and a half. I couldn't be more happier for her now that she is at peace and released from the struggle to draw breath. I want to thank all of you who have been so kind and supportive. You know who you are.

The Life and Times of Lord Mountbatten - Part One of Twelve | The King's Ships Were at Sea
The.Life.and.Times.of.Lord.Mountbatten.01of12
Like most people it would be difficult to give Mountbatten a solid thumbs up or down. He had some good things (for himself) and a lot of bad things (for others). I've yet to find credible testimony corroborating accusations of child abuse, though I know credible people who are sure he did.
In the late 60's Mountbatten wished to leave a TV legacy of his life which by any measure was quite extraordinary with or without the fuck ups, like his ineptitude over the Dieppe Landing that cost 1380 mainly Canadian lives with a further 2000 captured from a force of 5000. In those days a toff could just say 'we learned valuable lessons for the future' and nobody questioned it but now we know he made a huge mistake when pressing forward with the landing despite the Germans being alerted.
Mountbatten never thought he did anything wrong and you can see from this TV series that he's a completely solipsistic douchebag, though he does have exquisite manners.
That doesn't mean he didn't have what it takes for other tasks in his life. He was promoted for his failures, and eventually seemed to emerge as a born organizer but he was never very good in battle. He had that ability to tell the chaps he was in charge during an age where leadership was ordained rather than earned.
By the time this 12 part television puff piece had been produced, the bright young things at Thames Television could see he was a pompous fool with many chapters of shame to his history. They pummel him with damning praise through polite questions that you can see over here.
It's worth it to see how the most high are lost to hubris, and fail to see the times they are a changing.

Is George Webb The Theatre Relations Arm of Mossad
![]() |
George Webb |
I stopped promoting George Webb's videos when it became obvious he was an intel asset with a questionable agenda. That doesn't mean his work isn't good, it often is (and sometimes isn't) but now he's been exposed as an Israeli asset or rather claims that he is according to Rebekah Roth, it's important to remind him that Zionism is an apartheid political ideology that steals land and genocides the locals.
As I understand it Hollywood has already expressed an interest in George Webb's work and so I can see the whitewash of Israeli crimes against humanity will be squeezed out with a movie where people kiss their children on the forehead before going abroad to kill other children.
Rebekah Roth has returned on great form and provides a lucid explanation of what is going on for people with an attention span longer than an hour.
