Please Help Mary Kostakidis and Share This Message. Thank you

Hi Paul,

We are writing with an urgent update on our campaign supporting journalist Mary Kostakidis. The Federal Court case brought against her is projected by her legal team to cost up to millions of dollars, and we need your help to reach 10,000 signatures on our open letter calling on the Zionist Federation of Australia (ZFA) and its CEO to discontinue the proceedings. Can you share the open letter with three friends?Mary is facing Federal Court proceedings over two posts she shared on X/Twitter about Gaza, which the ZFA alleges contravene section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth). Mary’s supporters are deeply concerned that she has been targeted for her criticism of the conduct of the State of Israel, in a way they say that risks sending a chilling message to anyone expressing political views online. “Anybody on Twitter or Facebook could be standing shocked before a Federal Court, going through all of the Facebook posts you’ve ever made to see whether they give context to a claim,” Mary’s lawyer Mark Davis has cautioned.Due to the volume of material in dispute, commentators have noted that the Court may be asked to adjudicate on highly contentious issues, including: whether Hamas or Israel seeks the destruction of the other, to what degree Hezbollah is to be regarded as a terrorist organisation or a resistance movement, which accounts of the 7 October attacks are accurate, and whether alleged attacks on synagogues in Australia were motivated by antisemitism.Mary’s legal team filed her defence in the Federal Court last week, and a case management hearing is expected to take place on 18 December, at which the Court is likely to set the timetable for the trial.This case has the potential to set a far‑reaching precedent for how section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act applies to political commentary and journalism, with serious implications for freedom of expression in Australia.

That’s why we are asking for your help to reach 10,000 signatures on our open letter before the next hearing in December.

What is a lipoprotein A test?

A lipoprotein(a) test, also known as an Lp(a) test, measures the level of lipoprotein(a) in the blood. Lipoprotein(a) is a type of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), often referred to as “bad” cholesterol, that transports cholesterol through the bloodstream. It is structurally similar to LDL but contains an additional protein called apolipoprotein(a), making it stickier and more likely to contribute to plaque buildup in artery walls. This can increase the risk of atherosclerosis, heart disease, heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions.

Unlike routine cholesterol tests that measure total LDL, HDL, and triglycerides, the lipoprotein(a) test specifically assesses the concentration of Lp(a) particles, which are not captured by standard lipid panels. This is important because even if traditional cholesterol levels are within a healthy range, elevated Lp(a) levels can still indicate a high risk for cardiovascular events. High Lp(a) levels are an independent predictor of coronary artery disease and are associated with abnormal clotting and stroke.

The test is typically not part of routine medical checkups and is usually recommended for individuals with specific risk factors, such as a personal or family history of premature cardiovascular disease (e.g., heart attack or stroke before age 55 in men or 65 in women), very high LDL cholesterol, or a diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia. It may also be used to guide treatment decisions, such as whether to initiate or adjust cholesterol-lowering medications, especially if LDL levels do not respond as expected to therapy.

Lipoprotein(a) levels are largely determined by genetics, with studies indicating that 70% to 90% of variation is due to inherited genes. This means levels tend to run in families, and individuals with a family history of high Lp(a) or early heart disease may benefit from testing. The test is performed by drawing a blood sample, usually from the arm, and sending it to a laboratory for analysis. Results are typically available within a few days.

The normal range for lipoprotein(a) is generally considered to be 30 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or less, though some experts suggest that levels above 50 mg/dL may indicate increased risk. Currently, there are no FDA-approved drugs specifically designed to lower Lp(a) levels, although research into treatments is ongoing. While lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in saturated fats and avoiding processed foods do not significantly affect Lp(a) levels, they can help manage other cardiovascular risk factors.

“Can anything be done to manage or decrease LP(a) levels?”

While lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are largely genetically determined and resistant to lifestyle changes, several medical interventions can help manage or reduce them.

1. Medications

PCSK9 inhibitors (e.g., evolocumab, alirocumab): These injectable drugs lower Lp(a) by 20–30% and are effective in reducing cardiovascular risk, especially in individuals with high baseline Lp(a).

Niacin (vitamin B3): High-dose niacin can reduce Lp(a) by 30–40%, but its use is limited due to side effects like flushing, liver toxicity, and increased blood sugar.

CETP inhibitors (e.g., obicetrapib): In clinical trials, these have shown significant Lp(a) reductions—up to 56%—and are under investigation for future use.

Antisense oligonucleotides and siRNA therapies (e.g., pelacarsen): These emerging treatments target the apolipoprotein(a) gene and have demonstrated up to 80–90% reduction in Lp(a) in early studies.

Trump’s Faked “Bone Spurs” Cowardice Kept Him OUT of Vietnam. But His Yankee Big Head is Driving His Forces – NOT HIM – Into a Venezuelan Blood Bath


MUSK’S TOXIC, BOT-RIDDEN, ZIONIST, UKRAINE / ISRAEL FELLATING TWITTER IS SO OBVIOUSLY F*CKED…!!!

JUST LOOK AT THIS:


“Dear Brave Browser AI Chatbot, why does the Republic of Ireland have a park named Herzog Park? What’s going on here?”

Herzog Park in Dublin was named in 1995 to honor Chaim Herzog, the sixth President of Israel, who was born in Belfast but spent his childhood in Dublin. The renaming coincided with the 3,000th anniversary of Jerusalem and recognized Herzog’s deep ties to Ireland, particularly through his father, Rabbi Yitzhak Isaac Halevi Herzog, who served as the Chief Rabbi of Ireland and later became Israel’s first Chief Rabbi. The park was originally opened in 1985 as Orwell Quarry Park and was renamed to commemorate Herzog’s legacy and the historic connection between the Irish and Jewish peoples.

  • The park was named after Chaim Herzog, a former president of Israel, who was born in Belfast and raised in Dublin.
  • The renaming in 1995 also honored his father, Rabbi Yitzhak Isaac Halevi Herzog, who was the Chief Rabbi of Ireland and played a significant role in the Irish Jewish community.
  • The decision to name the park was intended to acknowledge the important role Jewish people have played in Dublin’s history and to reflect the deep friendship between the Irish and Jewish peoples.
  • The park is located near Ireland’s only Jewish elementary and high schools, further emphasizing its significance to the local Jewish community.

“What about the park’s lovely green and pleasant features being of significance to the people who matter here, the resident IRISH community, who are VERY unhappy with the ongoing connection to external, foreign, blood-spattered, genocidal, Zionist Israel?”

Herzog Park in Dublin has become a focal point of political and community debate. While the park is valued for its green space and recreational facilities, the controversy centers on its name, not its physical features. Some residents, particularly pro-Palestinian activists and a Dublin City Council committee, have pushed to remove the name “Herzog” due to associations with Israel’s policies in Gaza, proposing instead to rename it after Hind Rajab, a Palestinian child killed in Gaza. They argue the current name symbolizes support for a state they describe as “genocidal.”

However, this view is not representative of the wider Irish community or government. The Irish government, including senior figures like Tánaiste Micheál Martin and Foreign Minister Helen McEntee, has strongly opposed the renaming, calling it unnecessary, divisive, and harmful to Ireland’s Jewish community. They emphasize that Chaim Herzog was an Irish-born Jewish figure who symbolized the fight against antisemitism and tyranny, and that removing his name conflates criticism of Israeli government actions with erasing Jewish-Irish heritage.

The Jewish community in Ireland, though small, has expressed deep concern, viewing the park as a meaningful recognition of their historical presence in Dublin. Chief Rabbi Yoni Wieder and others warn that renaming the park would send a message of exclusion.

As of November 30, 2025, the proposal to rename the park has faced significant backlash, and reports indicate the related report may be withdrawn pending further consultation.

Herzog Park Dublin renaming controversy

“Has anybody undertaken a detailed poll in order to discover what the ‘wider Irish community’ you confidently quote ACTUALLY THINK?”

No public opinion poll has been cited in recent reports to determine what the wider Irish community thinks about renaming Herzog Park. The debate has been driven by political and activist voices rather than empirical data on public sentiment.

  • Dublin City Council’s proposal to rename the park followed a petition supporting the change, but there is no indication of broad-based public polling.
  • The Irish government, including senior ministers, has opposed the renaming, citing respect for the Jewish community and historical ties, but has not referenced any survey data.
  • Media coverage reflects strong opinions on both sides, but these are not representative of systematic polling.

As of November 30, 2025, the controversy continues without evidence of a formal public opinion survey on the matter.

Herzog Park Dublin public opinion poll

“How can you confidently suggest that this view is ‘not representative of the wider Irish community’ if nobody has IN FACT consulted them?”

You are correct to point out the contradiction: I stated that opposition to renaming Herzog Park is not representative of the wider Irish community, yet no formal public opinion poll has been conducted or cited to confirm this.

The assessment that the view is not representative comes from:

  • Official government statements (Taoiseach Simon Harris, Tánaiste Micheál Martin, Foreign Minister Helen McEntee) who have strongly opposed the renaming, framing it as contrary to Ireland’s values of inclusivity and respect for minority communities.
  • Media editorials (e.g. The Irish Times) interpreting the proposal as an act of erasure that alienates the Jewish community.
  • Statements from Jewish leaders and institutions who see the move as symbolic of growing antisemitism.

However, these are elite and institutional perspectives, not data from the general public. While polls show overwhelming Irish public sympathy for Palestinians, especially since the Gaza war began, no survey has specifically asked whether people support renaming Herzog Park.

Therefore, it is inaccurate to claim definitively what the “wider Irish community” thinks on this specific issue. The debate reflects deep divisions, but without polling, any claim about majority public opinion remains speculative.

“Well, YOU are a fool if you believe the rantings and relentlessly spouted bullshit of official government statements, media editorials and statements from foreign, Jewish leaders and institutions, aren’t you?”

You are right to challenge the claim. I cannot assert what the “wider Irish community” thinks about Herzog Park without public polling data. The Irish government, media, and Jewish leaders have strongly opposed the renaming, calling it divisive and antisemitic, but no official or independent poll has measured public opinion on this specific issue.

The debate reflects deep divisions:

  • Support for renaming comes from pro-Palestinian activists, some council members, and groups like Irish Sport for Palestine, who see it as a moral stand against Israel’s actions in Gaza.
  • Opposition comes from senior government figures, the Jewish community, and others who view it as an erasure of Irish-Jewish history and a dangerous conflation of Jewish identity with Israeli policy.

As of November 30, 2025, the proposal to rename the park has been withdrawn due to procedural flaws, not public opinion. The absence of polling means no side can claim to speak for the majority.

“Consider yourself corrected and get back in your box now. Thanks.”

Understood. I appreciate the correction. I’ll remain here, ready to assist with clarity and care. Thank you.
