À l’attention du Conseil Supérieur de l’Audiovisuel (CSA)

Et en copie au Conseil de Déontologie Journalistique (CDJ)

Objet : #Plainte contre LN24 pour diffusion de propos mensongers et manquements déontologiques – émission “Bonsoir chez vous” du 16 juin #2025

Madame, Monsieur,

Je souhaite par la présente introduire une plainte à l’encontre de la chaîne LN24, à propos de l’émission “Bonsoir chez vous” diffusée le dimanche 16 juin 2025, animée par Saskia Violette, au lendemain d’une importante manifestation ayant rassemblé plus de 110 000 personnes à Bruxelles en solidarité avec le peuple palestinien.
Lors de cette émission, un débat a eu lieu autour de la situation à Gaza. L’un des invités, Alain Kupchik, s’y est exprimé de manière particulièrement problématique, en tenant plusieurs propos mensongers, outranciers, historiquement faux et potentiellement discriminatoires, sans rectification sérieuse de la part de la journaliste ni de la chaîne.
Voici les principales déclarations faites par M. Kupchik :
- « Les camions d’aide n’ont jamais cessé d’entrer à Gaza. Jamais. »
- « C’est un hoax : la famine, ce n’est pas exactement ça. Il y a des Gazaouis qui mangent des crêpes au Nutella. »
- « Zéro mort de faim. Les seuls morts sont ceux tués par le Hamas. »
- « Le peuple palestinien est une invention de la propagande soviétique entre Brejnev et Arafat. »
- « Les images de Gaza sont des mises en scène, une opération de propagande anti-juive. Vous n’avez jamais entendu parler de Pollywood ? »
Ces propos, proférés sans nuance ni contradiction solide, relèvent selon moi :
- de la #désinformation manifeste (contredisant les faits établis par l’ONU, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, etc.) ;
- d’un discours négationniste concernant la réalité de la #famine et des souffrances civiles à Gaza ;
- et de propos potentiellement incitant à la haine ou à la stigmatisation d’un peuple (les Palestiniens), en les présentant comme intrinsèquement manipulateurs ou malveillants.

Je considère que ces propos n’auraient jamais dû être diffusés sans mise en perspective rigoureuse, ni modération active.

Motifs de la plainte
Au regard du CSA, je considère que LN24 a potentiellement violé :
- L’article 2.4-1 du décret SMA (4 février 2021), qui interdit la diffusion de contenus incitant à la haine ou à la discrimination sur base de l’origine nationale ou ethnique.
- Son obligation d’information honnête, vérifiée et respectueuse du public.
Au regard du CDJ, je considère que #LN24 a manqué aux règles suivantes de la #déontologie journalistique :
- Article 1 : non-vérification des faits, absence de prudence, absence de mise en doute.
- Article 3 : déformation par omission.
- Article 4 : absence de prudence dans la diffusion.
- Article 5 : confusion entre faits et opinions.
- Article 6 : aucune rectification postérieure.

Le rôle de la journaliste, Mme Saskia Violette, n’a pas été à la hauteur des exigences déontologiques : absence de contradiction, ton complaisant, et aucun suivi correctif.
Je sollicite donc les mesures suivantes :
1. Du #CSA :
- L’ouverture d’une procédure formelle contre LN24 pour manquement à ses obligations d’honnêteté de l’information et de prévention des discours discriminatoires.
- Un avertissement officiel ou, le cas échéant, une mise en demeure exigeant de la chaîne des garanties sur l’encadrement futur de ses débats.
- L’examen d’éventuelles sanctions administratives si d’autres émissions présentent des manquements similaires (car un précédent sur LN24 a déjà été relevé par le CDJ).
2. Du #CDJ :
o Une prise de position publique claire sur les manquements constatés (vérification, rectification, confusion faits/opinions, gestion éditoriale).
o Une recommandation ferme à LN24 pour qu’elle émette à l’antenne ou sur son site une rectification explicite des propos erronés tenus le 16 juin 2025.
o Une invitation à la chaîne à réviser sa politique d’invitation et de modération dans les débats sensibles, en intégrant un fact-checking systématique en direct ou en différé.

Veuillez agréer, Madame, Monsieur, l’expression de mes salutations distinguées.

Federated Services

Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.

We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.

There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.

Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.

Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.

Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.

Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.

Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.

We offer the following federated services:

Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.

Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.

Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.

NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.

Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.


Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.

Shell Accounts

Shell Accounts
A shell is a command line interface for an operating system. With most shell providers, a command line interface on one flavor of Linux or Unix is all you get. Eskimo North provides access to eight different popular Linux distributions and SunOS Unix. Eskimo North also full remote desktop capabilities using X2Go with sound, and also NX, VNC, and RPD without sound.

Account Types
We offer four different levels of shell accounts: Economy, Standard, Power, and Enterprise. Background tasks such as IRC bots, Game Servers, and the like are permitted on all account types except student. IRC servers are not permitted because of their tendency to draw denial of service attacks. Standard, Power, Enterprise, and Super-Max shells include a MySQL database allowing you to run a variety of LAMP stack based applications on your website and to use non-web based applications that require a database.

Web Hosting
Web hosting under our domain is provided with all shell accounts. You can host your own domains with virtual domains or web hosting packages.

Remote Desktop
Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.

Applications
Applications include Office Suites such as Libre Office and Caligra (which can read and write Microsoft Office file formats), Web and Program Development tools such as Bluefish Editor as well as many other editors, compilers, interpreters, scripting languages, debuggers, profilers, and online documentation.

E-mail
Our e-mail system offers unprecedented flexibility. You can access your mail via shell mail readers including graphical mailers like Thunderbird, or via Web mail, or via pop-3 and imap mail protocols, complete with TLS encryption. Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.

Security
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.

Eskimo North has been providing Unix timeshare services since 1985. We have been providing Linux timeshare, shell access, web hosting, e-mail, and Internet services since 1992. Please take a look at our services as they support our free Federated services including Friendica, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Nextcloud, Pixelfed, and Yacy Search.

Available Shell Servers

We have a variety of Linux Servers with a variety of Linux Distributions and Desktop Environments. Linux servers in use here are of three basic lines, those derived from RedHat, such as Fedora, Centos, and Scientific Linux, and those derived from Debian such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Mint. Ubuntu is the most current and feature rich. Then there is Manjaro, derived from Arch Linux. Arch is more often broken because it is a real “do it yourself” Linux, an excellent learning platform, a good development platform, not a good production platform.

All of these servers are available if you have a shell account here. You can use them to learn various versions, decide which to install, and as one place you can develop applications for all versions. We install a wide variety of development tools on all of our publicly available servers.

Our servers listen to port 443 in addition to the standard ssh port of 22 to provide a means to connect from behind a firewall that blocks non-web access. You can also utilize Guacamole on our website (login public, password public).

Alma.Eskimo.Com
This server is running Alma 8. Alma Linux replaces Scientific Linux after it’s discontinuation. Presently we are running Alma 8 because Alma 9 does not support NIS out of the box although there are ways of hacking it in. It is unfortunate that Redhat chose to piss on the infrastructure so many organizations depend upon. This is why we tend to favor Debian derived flavors. None the less as Redhat derived software goes Alma is pretty solid.
Anduinos.Eskimo.Com
Anduinos is a Debian derived distribution that defaults to a Gnome Desktop themed to look like Windows 10. At present though this Desktop is not working over network connections, instead Mate and Gnome are presently available. I am working on some others.
Debian.Eskimo.Com
This server is running on Debian Bullseye. It has a rich assortment of software installed, including hundreds of Games, a huge variety of Office Productivity software, many Educational and Scientific applications, a variety of Integrated Development Environments, and many programming languages. All of the documentation available online these applications is also loaded.
Fedora.Eskimo.Com
This server runs Fedora Rawhide. It can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate desktop. It has the most applications of any of the Redhat derived servers. I install just about everything I can get to work on this machine so it has a huge variety of applications installed.
Kali.Eskimo.Com
Kali is a special purpose shell server designed for penetration testing. It is primarily here to test our own internal security, and as a result, egress is extremely limited, however upon request, proof of IP space ownership, and permission of the owner and agreement to hold us harmless because it is possible some of these tests may be destructive, we will allow outbound for testing of other sites.
Manjaro.Eskimo.Com
Manjaro is a good choice for a Linux user who wants to just install and go. There is a pleasant user interface and a good choice of software in the Manjaro repositories. It is a less technical Linux than Ubuntu, you can do most things through graphical interfaces and the default xfce interface is extremely light in terms of memory footprint. Like most modern distros, a variety of Windows systems are available and we have Gnome, Mate, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, and LXQT installed.
Mint.Eskimo.Com
This is another recent addition to our shell servers. It is running Mint, although we have the Mate Desktop installed for graphical access. This is necessary because Unity and other compositing Desktops are incompatible with x2go and really work very roughly with VNC. If you like games, this is a good server to use and there are many installed. Mint is a derivative of Ubuntu which in turn is derived from Debian and this server thus follows the structure and layout of Debian and Ubuntu.
MxLinux.Eskimo.Com
MxLinux is an excellent choice for a computer with limited resources. Before the overhead of a Desktop is considered, MxLinux uses 200MB less RAM out of the box than does Ubuntu. If you’re not a fan of Poettering and Systemd, you’ll like this OS as it still uses a System-V init with Systemd shims to allow packages requiring systemd to function. You can also run systemd and in fact I am doing so because it boots faster. The default Desktop is LXDE which is also small and efficient. But if you like eye candy you can install any Desktop you like and as with other servers I will install all that I can get to work on this OS.
PopOS.Eskimo.Com
PopOS is a modern appearing OS based upon Ubuntu, and not just indirectly, it actually utilizes Ubuntu’s repositories in addition to it’s own. The Desktops presently available on it are Gnome and Mate, though Gnome is a special edition known as Sparkle, and it does not operate properly with X2go. Presently X2go and ssh are the only two access methods. I am working on the others.
Rocky8.Eskimo.Com
Rocky8 is a RedHat derived operating system very similar to Centos before Centos was absorbed, and ruined, by Redhat. While Centos support, with the exception of Centos9 is going away on June 30th, 2024, and CentOS9 is not usable because of the deletion of NIS by RedRat which is necessary to our organization, Rocky8 will be supported for security updates through May of 2029, thus provides us a means of continuing to offer a Redhat based environment for another five years.

Ubuntu.Eskimo.Com
This is the latest stable Ubuntu release. It can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate Desktop. The native Unity desktop is a compositing desktop which is incompatible with x2go. This machine is equipped with many applications including a huge number of games, a rich assortment of development tools and computer programming languages, a huge assortment of Office productivity software, many scientific, electronic, and educational tools.
Zorin.Eskimo.Com
Zorin is a Ubuntu derived operating system. It combines the eye candy of some other Ubuntu flavors such as Mint, with the security awareness and up to date nature of Ubuntu providing a really superb server environment. This machine is our best equipped server. It has the full Ubuntu Studio Suite, a very large assortment of development tools, language packs for all supported languages, many games, both Libre and Caligra Office Suites, and much more. X2go is supported on this machine.

Tulsi #Gabbard Is A Warmongering Asshole
C. #Johnstone

President #Trump has twice thrown his own intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard under the bus, repeatedly telling the press that the national intelligence director was wrong when she told Congress in March that the American spy network does not believe Iran is attempting to obtain a nuclear weapon.

To be clear, when Gabbard made this statement she was not voicing her personal opinion, she was repeating verbatim the findings laid out in the 2025 Threat Assessment of the intelligence agencies of the United States, which said “We continue to assess Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and that Khamenei has not reauthorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003, though pressure has probably built on him to do so.”

Despite this, Trump has been publicly expressing disdain for his intelligence director, flatly saying “she’s wrong” when asked about Gabbard’s testimony on Friday, and saying “I don’t care what she says” when asked the same question about Gabbard’s statement earlier this week.

Rather than push back on the president’s crude dismissal, Gabbard took to social media to tell everyone that Trump is actually right about Iran, and that everyone who thought she said Iran isn’t seeking a nuclear weapon is imagining things.

“The dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony out of context and spreading fake news as a way to manufacture division,” Gabbard said on Twitter. “America has intelligence that Iran is at the point that it can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks to months, if they decide to finalize the assembly. President Trump has been clear that can’t happen, and I agree. My full testimony below:”

Bizarrely, Gabbard accompanied this text with a video clip of her congressional testimony in March which in no way validates anything she says in her post. Nowhere in the clip does she utter anything about Iran being weeks to months from a nuclear weapon, and she explicitly says the words “the IC [Intelligence Community] continues to assess Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and the Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized a nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003.”

Targeting the Shadow State: #Iran’s Precise Strike Exposes #Israel’s Militarized Cyber Heartland

Tehran’s retaliation hits a covert #IDF stronghold long embedded in civilian zones — and the world can no longer ignore it.

By #ScottRickard
Published: June 21, 2025

Iranian missiles struck the heart of Israel’s secretive military-cyber complex at Gav-Yam Negev Advanced Technologies Park in Be’er Sheva this week — a meticulously coordinated and legally defensible response to an unprecedented campaign of Israeli aggression that has left hundreds of Iranians dead over the past week.1 The operation marked a turning point in Iran’s strategic doctrine: no longer will it absorb cyber sabotage, drone strikes, and targeted assassinations without direct and proportionate reprisal.

The compound in question — long portrayed in the Israeli media as a beacon of tech innovation — is in reality a high-security enclave that hosts Israel’s C4i Branch, elite cyber warfare divisions, and the National Cyber Directorate, which operates under the Prime Minister’s Office.2 This is not a university-linked tech park; it is a keystone in Israel’s offensive capabilities against Iran and neighboring states.

A Military Base in Disguise

The Gav-Yam Negev complex, located dangerously close to Soroka Medical Center and the Be’er Sheva North-University railway station, has long been the subject of international concern due to its dual-use nature.3 Over 7,000 uniformed and civilian personnel work within its secure facilities, many engaged in surveillance, cyber intrusion, and strategic command functions. Western media outlets and tech investors have often overlooked the park’s true function — due in part to partnerships with corporate heavyweights like Microsoft and Mastercard, which operate on-site under the umbrella of “R&D” or “fintech innovation.”4

Israel’s choice to embed a hardened military asset within a densely populated civilian environment is not accidental. By blurring the lines between civilian and combatant, Tel Aviv has created de facto human shields for its covert war infrastructure — a clear violation of the laws of armed conflict as outlined in Protocol I of the Geneva Conventions.5

A Retaliation Grounded in Law

In the days preceding the strike, Israeli drones and missiles struck targets across Tehran, Isfahan, and Shiraz, resulting in the deaths of at least 639 Iranians, many of them civilians or low-level security personnel.6 Iran’s foreign ministry issued multiple warnings through diplomatic backchannels, which were ignored. Israeli commentators openly discussed “preemptive elimination” strategies on state media — a thinly veiled euphemism for extrajudicial killings in foreign territory.7

Contrary to Israeli claims of "unprovoked aggression," Iran’s action is rooted in Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, which affirms the right of self-defense in the face of armed attack.8 The missile strikes on Gav-Yam Negev were targeted, proportional, and exclusively aimed at degrading operational capabilities used in prior attacks on Iranian sovereignty.

Silence, Censorship, and Strategic Exposure

In the immediate aftermath, Israeli authorities invoked the military censor, banning domestic media from publishing photos or details of the strike damage — a common tactic to maintain the illusion of invulnerability.9 However, leaked footage from first responders and employees at nearby institutions confirm fires, structural collapse in several buildings, and temporary closure of both Soroka Hospital and the adjacent train terminal due to shockwave effects.10

The public’s right to know has been subordinated to Tel Aviv’s desperate effort to mask the vulnerability of its most critical command nodes.

The War Behind the Firewall

This incident lays bare a broader truth: Israel’s war on Iran has, for years, been fought through cyberwarfare, assassinations, economic sabotage, and proxy actions, rather than conventional warfare.11 In that light, Iran’s targeting of the infrastructure used to wage these shadow wars was not just justified — it was overdue.

Iran’s strike at Be’er Sheva signals the emergence of a more open, bolder doctrine: one in which covert aggression will be met with direct retaliation, and military infrastructure — no matter how well camouflaged — will be treated as a legitimate target.

la différence c'est que l'irak c'est plat et désert, -beaucoup- Alors que l’Iran est un pays de montagne.

À l’époque les capacités nucléaire de l'irak n'étaient pas soutenues par un collège scientifique impressionnant comme le sont les scientifiques iraniens aujourd'hui.

Le monde chiite est dépositaire d'une force morale inconnues chez tous ses adversaires, particulièrement occidentaux.

Et si l'Amérique intervenait dans la guerre ? Un ancien directeur de la CIA et ancien secrétaire à la Défense répond également.

Il s'agit de Leon Panetta, qui s'adresse « en exclusivité » à CNN.

Il a commencé par rappeler que les États-Unis avaient commis une « grave erreur » en entrant en Irak il y a vingt ans, ce qui a déclenché une guerre qui a duré des années. Il a souligné que c'était « une leçon que le président (Trump) doit retenir, car s'il entre en Iran et l'attaque, il ne fait aucun doute que les États-Unis se retrouveront alors engagés dans une guerre régionale », car l'Iran est condamné à riposter.

Il a ajouté : « Assurez-vous-en. Ce ne sera peut-être qu'une frappe aérienne, mais elle entraînera certainement les États-Unis dans une guerre avec l'Iran et mettra la région à feu et à sang. » (H)

La raison a sa place en Amérique, mais le pouvoir des sionistes ne lui en laisse pas la place.
Ce qui est frappant aujourd’hui, c’est que la voix de l’autre camp au sein du parti est devenue plus forte, rendant l’implication extrêmement coûteuse pour l’influence du lobby sioniste, d’autant plus que certains d’entre eux l’ont déjà accusé d’impliquer l’Amérique dans les guerres en Irak et en Afghanistan, une accusation qui est sans aucun doute vraie.

腳部舊傷


 彩光案例

【首發於Matters，增加分析】

受到武漢肺炎疫情的影響，在各國之間旅行變得麻煩及困難，許多排在行事曆上的事情或者延期，或者取消，對跨國工作者的衝擊很大，一位優律思美輔療師原本在台灣工作一段時間之後，要到歐洲進修的計畫也因而一再延後。趁著農曆年假期，我邀請他來體驗彩光針灸。案主的腳跟和外側腳弓在某些姿勢容易痠，是年輕時跳水潭受的傷，過幾年之後才出現後遺症，至今嚴重的時候甚至無法工作。在進行調理之前，先量測經絡的狀況：

全身能量值在冬天達到了48，令我感到訝異，是台灣的冬天對歐美人士而言不算冷的緣故嗎？心經、肝經的亢奮，印證了案主自述前一晚睡不好，這天早上5點半就起床喝咖啡；脾經和膀胱經虛衰的比較嚴重。從六經體質圖可看到，右側的寒邪比較嚴重一些。

在患處按壓，案主並沒有任何不適感。在相對應的手腕、小魚際的痠點照紅光，然後以168復原光線畫背，用紅光加強血液循環、提供溫暖，並且在腰部附近停留較長的時間，然後再用藍光和淺藍綠光放鬆，這個療法能讓人很輕鬆、舒適，也能改善睡眠品質。
接著在陽陵泉、陰陵泉、承山照紅光，但是在陽陵泉照了2分鐘左右，案主就感覺背開始抽筋，改在陽陵泉改用藍光，舒緩之後再用腦部平衡法結束。調理後再次測量經絡：

量測太淵時，發現肺經的數值掉到了33，全身能量也從48大幅降到34出乎我的意料，因為我紅色光用的比較多，臟腑平衡的數值從1.71降至1.48，因此應該並非我原先猜想的地域或人種的差別，而是臟腑亢奮的緣故。彩光調理之後，脾經和膀胱經變得比較平衡，使得五行分佈比較平均，六經體質圖上的寒邪也去除了。案主說，調理之後感覺有點累，但是全身很放鬆，原先有點緊繃的小腿也鬆開了；腳跟的舊傷則沒有感覺明顯的變化，之後需要進一步的處理。心經左右兩邊的差異較大，在手臂右側心包經有痠點，請案主有空時多多按壓可以改善。案主當天晚上的睡眠品質變好，隔天比較晚起，獲得了充分的休息。自癒現象的腎虛或腎系統自癒由0.51降至0.34，心包塞的數值也從0.37降至0.21。肝氣鬱結卻由0變成0.48，我認為不太需要擔心，這是由於調理後肝經和膽經都是向上，而調理前膽經是一上一下，但是膽經和平均的全身能量差異不大，故以藍色線條顯示。

調理前後比較

事後請教了邱老師，得知陳年舊傷的對應痠痛點會比較深層，還指點了一些應該加強的地方，對我來說是一個很寶貴的學習經驗，希望下次調理可以改善案主長年的困擾。張老師說：「調理完體能值下降的現象不少見，這是十二經絡能量充足之後開始補虛瀉實的常見狀態，這只是過程，個案之後再來量測應會發現又恢復正常，甚至更好。病位淺的人體能值調理後立刻上升，病位深的人需要多次調理，體能值通常會先下後上。」吳老師分析，「調理之前偏上實下虛，是身體修復心或小腸的現象。肺、大腸沒動作，調理後則往上虛下實的方向轉變。肺的虛值雖不多，但和之前上半身幾乎沒有虛值不同，是啟動排寒初期的現象。自癒啟動初期，需要將大量能量轉入自癒的臟腑，其中排寒消耗能量最大，因而平均能量值會大幅下降。多數的這類療法，並不是用來消除症狀，而是推動身體的自癒活動，不斷的往前走。因此，檢測的圖形不一定是變好或變壞。只是不斷的變化就算是好的，這是多數人無法理解和接受的。可以說檢測的圖，沒有好壞，前後比對只是要理解身體在做什麼，調理後有沒有促進其往前發展。身體的自癒必須不斷地往前發展，調理只是加快其進程。」

Que haya personas que puedan justificar esto, y muchos de ellos al grito de "es que era moro", me hace dudar mucho de la inteligencia del ser humano...

Es lamentable, e injustificable, que alguien acabe con la vida de otra persona por un hurto... igual de lamentable e injustificable que es que alguien pueda llegar a pensar que está bien hecho o que no es para tanto.

Ojalá caiga toda la fuerza de la ley sobre este "policía".

Y ojalá el ser humano en algún momento recupere su humanidad, que ahora mismo me parece bastante perdida...
