I wonder what the reaction would be had Assad’s forces slaughtered 200+ Syrian citizens in Sweida?

At 430 on Sunday I have a choice between jah wobble on the main stage or a debate on Syria with Vanessa Beeley in the rebel tent. Choices choices.

The band is built around the man and bass not the songs these days. Now, when he was with PIL for instance, that was good…
