It seems to me that with daily reports of collapse / imminent collapse of US cities & states: San Fran, Illinois, Cali and the weather in Texas last week – the American people are being given ‘wake up’ signs as well from Gaia (what the ancient Greeks called Mother Nature)
But for those in the ‘collective West’ bear in mind, if the US goes down – one way or another – it’ll take their client states down with it
Maybe the collapse will not come that soon.
The stock market, the commodity market, the oil market and the crypto market are vigorously pushing up again. As China is interested in not losing its markets and clients, Quantitative Easing can be used to keep the markets up for this decade at least.
The virus megaoperation has been an almost total success. Prior to that, the pharmaceutical industry was fading away but now, due to their bioterror deep state operation, they have skyrocketed in market capitalisation. And let’s not forget that MANY Chinese pharma companies are participating in this business which indicates that Xi is most probably directly implicated in the handling of the WHO puppets as well as being best buddy with the Adamslike Gates family.
In conclusion, global capitalism seems to have found a new promised land for expansion. People like Cheney, Kissinger, Woolsey and other senatorial deepstate owners of the empire are solidly sitting in their thrones, enjoying watching the plebeians being torn apart by the lions.
Dark times indeed
“Dark times indeed”
Absolutely.
“And let’s not forget that MANY Chinese pharma companies are participating in this business which indicates that Xi is most probably directly implicated in the handling of the WHO puppets”
And, probably, Putin:
https://www.rt.com/uk/510323-astrazeneca-vaccine-sputnik-collaboration/
It’s been a Global Mafia for a very long time – they just have the tools to implement control/theft in the same fashion everywhere this time.
Holocaust.2 will be focused on the anti-vaxxers. They face the “easy” option.
The balance (who sell their soul to the devil free-of-charge) will be treated even worse. It won’t matter if they receive a placebo or new mRNA based Human.2 operating system since they face a borderline existence working just to pay for an endless stream of “vaccines” (since the WHO have determined that the existing Human Immune system can no longer provide herd immunity).
You are correct – the megaoperation has been entirely successful and the turkey’s probably won’t get any pudding next xmas dinner (anywhere).
We, mostly, didn’t care about the Palestinians. Most will now find out what it is like to be one.
“and probably Putin”
The fact that the Astrazeneca vaccine has been rejected by Switzerland does seem to indicate that the controlling entities do not want it which is a point in its favour in my view. It is worth considering that the Russian vaccine may have been developed as an alternative to the Frankenstein cocktail so teaming up with Astrazeneca may not be such a bad thing. Hard to know what to believe.

I don’t imagine you are in line for this year’s xmas pudding.
This particular “Anonymouse” is a troll. You can tell by it’s continuous and very boring attempts to convince readers at this site that Putin and Xi are part of a Global Dominance spectrum, and there is nothing we can do but sit in a corner and weep.
It has clearly not enough brains to realise the IQ of the readership here is above the usual comment site and that it never gets a bite.
Just ignore it.
This particular “Anonymouse” is a troll.
If I am there are a multitude similarly opposed to the Global plandemic.
However, contrary to your opinion, I am not a piece of sh*t

Lol Again, you impress Sandy. You are definitely “on team” as a Cafe poet I think. And thank you for making me laugh – and again, when applying some of the “magic 100x moisturiser”. Perhaps we could market it – “especially good for tough dragon scales – they just fall away” :-)
See Babushka – you have even inspired poetry; :-)
Definitely another save.
I hope this is OK, but I’m actually replying to Rob – for some odd reason 3 of the comments above don’t carry a “reply” button on my PC. Tyson B and anomalous, are the others.
I just wanted to say thanks to Rob for the link – and as Tyson says, yes – Cymru and for me especially the North Gwynedd, where I am from, the woods and valleys are full of a “presence” you can feel, if you just walk quietly and let the very “present” world fall away. And once you have done that – it never leaves you.
You reminded me, with the song of the Witch Rhiannon Rob, of the fictional character I chose as a “favourite” for those security questions online bank accounts seem addicted to. [I never have favourites of anything much, as with so much to choose from and so much depending on context – how can I choose.?]
But pushed, I decided to pick Granny Weatherwax, Terry Pratchetts’ cranky, pernickety, but very strong and honest witch. {I wanted to remember, if ever introduced to “Royalty” and told before hand curtsy or bow, to say “sorry, but Witches never bow. It’s a “thing”, you know :-) }
Years ago the USA was complaining about the censorship and big firewall around the Chinese internet. I already said then something like ‘they’re just jealous. Within years, we’ll have that here too’.
Now look at these creepy plans of -who else- Microsoft and other Big Tech companies: https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2021/02/25/bokhari-microsoft-and-friends-want-to-destroy-online-privacy/
“Microsoft has teamed up with a number of tech and media companies to create a system of tracing content around the internet that could destroy online privacy and anonymity, radically transforming the nature of the web.”
The question that then pops to mind is ‘Gee, why are they so afraid of us?’
I’m asking this for a friend ;-)
Cheers, Rob

Actually it’s wonderful. Well, maybe.
All we need is more than 10% of them to do it, and that’s it. The balance of power has swung away from the Ruling Junta’s and to the people.
It will then, of course, become violent. The Ruling Clique will be fighting for it’s life, and it knows it. But it’s violence will bring more people over to the people, and the Junta’s will be toppled.
What comes then, of course, remains to be seen. Revolutions usually only end up going back to where we started. Hence the name. If you want to go forward to have to, not revolve, but evolve.
A (google translated ) letter from a 90 year old senior in a elderly home, who has worked here whole life in health care, to Armin Laschet, the prime minister of Bundesland Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. Bottom-line: ‘I decide whether I want to be saved’:
“Dear Mr. Laschet,
My name is Agathe P. I was born in Hungary in 1930. Now I live in a nursing home in Troisdorf.
I have experienced communism in two countries, and now I am suffering the third deprivation of liberty in my life. And again it is a typical German event. To clarify: the Hungarians were always Hungarians at first, and only afterwards communists. Initially, the Germans were always communists, and only far behind that were Germans.
Even now, saving lives has become primarily an end in itself, before the question of whether people want it, or whether it makes any sense at all. Since I moved in, 15 people have died in this home, one of them possibly from corona. For that all other health problems and their treatment seemingly no longer important. I’ve had to have a tooth extracted and a heart exam for months. Not a chance, because even the doctors are afraid of bringing in death from the retirement home. In my circle of acquaintances, a few people have died because they did not get surgery appointments, or were too scared to go to the hospital themselves.
Do not get me wrong. I have worked in health care all my life, first as a secretary in the emergency department, later as the chief secretary of the chief physician for accident surgery. That’s why I don’t understand the corona panic. There are about 900 illnesses and injuries from which you can die, not counting suicide from the 145 different diagnoses of depression. That means that masses of people die every day from all possible causes. Corona is no difference; In the winter, the elderly die of infections, which has always been the case. Three years ago I had the flu and almost died. At the time, not a single doctor or politician was involved, but now is it the reason to turn the country into a prison?
According to the motto: the politicians save your life, if necessary over your corpse. I know this form of compulsive happiness from the GDR. If I die of a heart attack tomorrow, you don’t care, but everything is being done to make sure I don’t die of corona? Do you actually understand how that looks to a 90-year-old?
In my opinion, you and your co-perpetrators are guilty of two things:
1 . You are saving my life at the expense of my children and grandchildren. The unimaginable costs will make it impossible for my offspring to live as free and financially independent as I do. I don’t want to be guilty of the offspring’s misfortune, I didn’t order that. I did not vote for the CDU to be deprived of my freedom. I don’t want the whole country going to doom for giving some elderly people a few extra months in the sickbed. Nor do I want to be made responsible for the experience of the deprivation of liberty. I do not want to be guilty of people like you suddenly seeing the possibility of enforcing the constitution ad absurdum with impunity.
2 . I don’t want to be saved at all *. I want to decide for myself what my ending looks like, and possibly God also speaks a word about it. But not you! After all the dictatorial experiences, in which a few fascist types were added in my early childhood, I don’t want to have my freedom taken away by bureaucrats (who might soon be called apparatchiks again?) In the last few meters. Why? To die three weeks later from something that does have your permission?
Are we so again at the same point as 200 years ago, when they had to shout against the rulers ‘give me freedom, Sire’?
Just look at it this way: if your measures will keep me going through the elections, you will see that I will NOT vote for you. If communism has to be done by then, then the original. Then the downfall and reconstruction will take place more quickly. ”
True words. One could even ask whether vaccinations saves lives, or accelerates deaths.
Cheers, Rob
One could even ask whether vaccinations saves lives, or accelerates deaths.”
There is on the internet a publication by a paediatric specialist Dr. who has treated thousands of kids in his practice over the years.
He has published data showing that non-vaccinated kids are streets ahead in health during all their early years, over vaccinated kids, who keep showing up with a stream of complaints.
I’ll try to find the link – but I’ve seen his statement and his data. It’s pretty conclusive.
That could be Dr. Paul Thomas of Portland, OR who recently had his license revoked last Dec 2020.
Not surprised if he’s saying and publishing data like that. You think the might Pharma is going to take prisoners? Kill on sight is the order.
Here is the link:
https://nationalvanguard.org/2020/12/ten-year-study-unvaccinated-children-far-healthier-than-vaccinated-peers/
Thanks Theodora, but I get a “Page does not exist” from the link.
Again – it does not surprise!!
Again, from Russia – not an announcement of yet antoher industrial enterprise but of the mocking contempt with which, more and more, Russians are regarding America, and acting on that contempt.
From InfoRuss;
The FBI announced a reward of 250 thousand dollars for information about the businessman they dislike Prigozhin
USA
27.02.2021 Inforuss0
The Americans announced a reward of a quarter of a million dollars, for information about the businessman Prigozhin, whom they disliked, and who was declared “Putin’s cook”by the Western press at the suggestion of some idiot wit of theirs. YUKOS was it,? or some other that graze there?
I remember that Khodorkovsky, on a whim on his, sent a whole Russian film crew to the Central African Republic with Orkhan Dzhemal at the head, where, of course, the locals killed them. Stole Cash, expensive equipment … they Found a place to send journalists. At least they weren’t eaten. After all, it could have happened – the country is no stranger to these problems.
However, in this particular case, everything turned out to be extremely funny. Prigozhin’s company immediately sent his St. Petersburg address to America, demanding to send the promised reward in response.
So now it’s up to the Americans. They wanted information, they got it. They offered a reward, so they should give it. Although it is clear that in all this combination, no one was going to pay anyone a penny.
However, the move is good. It’s a devilishly clever combination: the Queen’s diamonds and the cardinal’s money. Almost Dumas. Again, humour, humour, and humour again is the only thing that makes sense to apply to all the American sanctions, threats, and all the other crap that they constantly indulge in.
The country is big, strong, and rich. But so seriously does it consider himself the centre of the world that it does these things?. Well, what can you do about these habits? Pompous arrogant dandy that was smacked in Crimea.
So why not give the same thing to the Americans. But who, except for Ukraine alone, takes it seriously, and even then, due to the stupidity of Zelensky and his team, takes this fanfare seriously? So Prigozhin is right. But, however, will they pay? According to the current coronavirus crisis, there is not so much money any more?
It’s the right approach of course. How long is it going to be before the Beltway and Pentagon idiots realise that all they are doing is making themselves the laughing stock of the world?
NB. I have made a few “edit” changes to make the wording clearer, but no changes to meaning. With an automatic translator, the end result depends entirely on the quality of the grammar. If a lot of slang and vernacular is used, it can take a bit of ploughing through to sort the intent out :-)
Russian S-300 Missiles Sold To Syria Apparently Obsolete
Defense World Reports:
“This is because the US has obtained complete performance details and lock-on codes of the S-300 after it bought key parts of the system from Belarus since 1994. Besides, countries with which the US shares defence relationship such as Cyprus, Ukraine, Greece and Egypt also have the S-300 which the US may have studied against its F-16 and F-35 fighters and shared the information with Israel.”
“In addition, the Syrian military has summarized several fatal problems of Russian-made anti-aircraft missiles: the backwardness of the electronic system leads to poor anti-jamming capabilities, the effective range is far short from what is claimed, and the system’s degree of automation is low.” – Defense World
https://www.defenseworld.net/news/26423/Replace____Failed____Russian_S_300_in_Syria_with_Chinese_Air_Defence_System__Chinese_Media
This is quite a problematic developement not only for Syria, but for Russia as well. Reporters from Israel, including Haaretz and Jpost ( referred to by Koryboko as alternative media appatemtly ), are questioning why Syria has not used S300s after the recent attack by Biden administration.
American former US Sputnik DC reporter now studying in Moscow at a university and is insinuating that Iran was responsible for the downed Russian plane and not Israel. The fact that it is being insinuated in such a gutless manner is obviously because there is nothing to support the baseless insinuation that it was not Israel, and nothing to support the equally baseless insinuation that it was Iran.
This Putin demonization of Iran and playing Putin playing footsie with Netenyahu was something that really bothered me because of its under-handedness, with Netenyahu rushing to Russia on a monthly basis to meet with Putin, and Putin repeatedly caving to meet the demands of the Tyrant Netenyahu now responsible for such tyranny that Haredi Orthodox Jews have taken to wearing yellow stars and calling the police chief Hitler for enforcing limiting socialization to only five people, when most Haredis have seven children, from prohibiting worship, and freedom of assembly inherent to their religious, familial, and cultural pursuits. The police have hosed them down with smelly water, and have shot at them for being anti-vaxx, anti-lockdown. and anti-war.
https://www.globalresearch.ca/why-isnt-alt-media-asking-about-s-300s-biden-latest-strike-syria/5738437
All of this shows increasing deterioration in the alliance between Russia and Syria, between Russia and Iran, and between China and Russia, with China now undermining Putin over S300 missile systems, suggesting that everyone buy Chinese missiles and ignore Russian S400 missile systems.

The first link you give is an Empire outfit. It’s funded by and for the Ruling Junta. Therefor, it’s comments re Russia mean nothing.
The second is written by Andrew Korybko, who writes for Empire outlets and can have an anti-Russian stance.
There can be many many reasons for the apparant non-use in an unexpected attack of a very complex piece of machinery.
Trying to say Putin is hand in glove with the universally hated Netanyahu, – hated by all outside the Beltway that is – is just more propaganda.
Also, trying to suggest the machinery of Russia’s defence units is malfunctioning is a classic piece of Oceania projecting; while it’s planes are falling out of the sky, and Russian manufacturing and invention go from strength to strength, trying to suggest that Russian made is as bad as Boeing anything is just more of the usual from them.
I’d take all this with a big pinch of salt. It’s early days yet – and we know of previous use with the S-300 that Syria has been fending off missile attacks from Israel for months – a few years – with them, with a very high rate of success.
Also, Andrew Korybko’s writing is exclusively anti- Russian – at least every piece of his I have ever read has been. I believe he has previously been called out for this here – I can’t remember by whom.
Yes, you’re right Sandy.
Also, I am no expert – to put it mildly, a complete ignoramus is more accurate – on the engineering aspects of these things, but I suspect S-300 is an anti-missile technology.
The Empire launched air strikes. There is video of the planes taking off. Not sure how they operate against air attack. I’d suspect not so well.
Syria hasn’t used the S-300 missiles against enemy planes or missiles, at least not the missiles. They used the shorter range systems like Buk or Pantsir against incoming missiles or glide bombs. They seem to be the most successful with the Pantsir system. Which makes sense as it is the most modern air defense system in their inventory iirc.
The S-300 isn’t primarily designed as an anti missile system. And it is probably better suited to engage planes. Missiles are small and often fly low, much harder to detect (shorter range). Therefore it is often more practical to engage incoming missiles in the last dozen or so miles to the target like the Syrians usually do.
I kinda enjoy reading Korybko, his writing is like a glass of ice water.. thrown in the face.
A useful antidote to ‘wishful thinking’.
With the recent strikes, and the middle east in general, I think the two sides are simply playing by different rulebooks.
The Anglo Zionists feel that every ‘free point’ is a win, even if it mires them further away from a peaceful solution.
This current event is more likely to be an opportunity for the new puppet to swing his genitalia in celebration of Purim.
The ‘Axis’ are playing more strategically, when sometimes the best move is to not interrupt your opponents mistakes.
Though as such, the different members will have different strategic objectives.
Certainly the latest slap – and that is all it is, a ‘slap on the right cheek’ – will only cement their resolve.
Perhaps they are waiting for an hubristic ‘Twighlights Last Gleaming’ assault, which will result in the crumbling of an empire.
Ah, wishful thinking!
Yep. Chinese Empire. Xi Dynasty. The emporer that declared himself permanent emporer, and got rid of pesky term limits by decree.

An article in the Lancet calls for cost benefit analysis of covid measures. From it :
“…We think government lockdowns cause substantial collateral health damage. For example, hospital admissions in the USA for emergency treatment of acute ischaemic strokes have been substantially lower.,……… acute coronary syndrome (a 41% increase), stroke (a 39% increase), and heart failure (a 25% increase).2…”
“…We call on all scientists, public health officials, journalists, and politicians to weigh and consider the collateral damage from government COVID-19 control measures and their negative effect on many short-term and long-term health outcomes. ….. Other life-threatening diseases are being neglected, …….”

I have to say what has taken so long ? I ( and others ) have been making the same, very obvious points from day one.
A proper functioning economy should not need trillions of dollars stimulus.
This money train has created a bloated lazy industrial sector that only has to hold it’s plate out like in Oliver Twist and ask “please may I have some more?”
Who pays?
The saver and the wage earners, the responsible and the toiler.
This cannot go on for much longer.
Well, I’m no economist – but one one Max Keiser episode {I rarely listen to him, but caught this on an interview with Mike Moloney}, he said that this was coming. A couple of weeks back, roughly. The reason he gave was that they can’t do anything else. They’ve built a trap and walked into it and now have cut off all their options,.
However, according to Keiser there is nothing to stop them. They have the system so rigged that they can go on just printing money and giving it to their pals.
Mike disagrees { I think he’s right}, as he insisted it’s leading to Hyperinflation, but he claims there will be a deflation before it, which we have now. And as others I read, including from Russia, are saying, the Hyperinflation is looking exactly like the Wiemar Republic just before the 1930’s crash !!!
Oh dear!!
Cookie Boy,
I wonder about this myself. I can’t figure it out.
Either 1) the Power-That-Be understand that this will end badly, but don’t know what else to do or, 2) they are completely delusional about where this is headed or, 3) they are deliberately trying to bring the system down so that they replace it with something else.
But none of those theories seem to explain it either.
Theory number 1 doesn’t explain why they seem so confident (except for Jerome Powell who often looks frightened to death) about what they are doing.
Theory number 2 means that the most all of the “establishment” is totally divorced from reality. I suppose that could happen but I have a hard time accepting that.
Theory number 3 would open the door to a transition, alright. But that transition might be to Chinese ascendency.
The whole thing really puzzles me.
The answer in changing the world is at our finger tips.
Gamestock episode on the stock market show that a large masses of people with a little input can affect stocks if they all pull in the same direction.
It’s how the powerful get their power, by convincing the masses to pull in their direction.
An example of how powerful the individual is in combining their efforts would be something as simple as boycotting a companys products, such an example could be Coca Cola who’s been promoting poor health since it’s existence.
You have to reverse the power dynamic to change this world.
Heaven help us. The US State Department is training secondary and post-secondary students from around the world to be young ambassadors for the Arctic. As if the Arctic didn’t face enough problems, er challenges, already.
See Tweet from Blinken
https://twitter.com/SecBlinken/status/1365449893746245640
Given the logistics of America accessing much of the Arctic, the lack of any good vessels, or knowledge of the place, I doubt they can do much more than camp out on tinned bully beef for a few weeks and go home, truly.
It’s just more words for domestic consumption. In any practical sense, the Arctic is Russias’ now. America slept in smug complacency for far too long.
Thanks be to God.
All well enough, but will they be able to find the Arctic on a map, heaven forbid they actually have to, brrrr, visit the place………..
Cheers, M
Ha. :-)
I think if they could find it sean, they would be “highly likely ” {just love it} to get themselves in a pickle and end up having to be rescued by a Russian Arctic going nuclear powered vessel. “-)
That sure would be priceless!
Cheers
They couldn’t find their own backsides – with both hands – just more silly blather.
“Recently, we have been receiving information from various sources (we cannot confirm them yet, and we want to ask the Americans directly) that they are allegedly in the process of making a decision never to leave Syria and even to break up that country.”
this is a quote from Mr. Lavrov during a press conference with Afghan ambassador. I draw folks attention to this because Lavrov is not known for “loose lips” or casual statements. Just another puzzle piece for us to put into place on this forum of analytics and discernment.
The Western Media is reporting that the United States is looking to hold Saudi Arabia “accountable” for Jamal Khashoggi’s killing.
I would love to hear people’s thoughts on what this is all about. It seems unlikely that the “Deep State” is suddenly concerned about Saudi Arabia’s human rights record. More likely the new administration is shifting policy on something and Khashoggi’s killing gives them an opening.
But what exactly is going on?
My guess is that they have concluded that MBS has to go for some reason. Maybe he is too much of a loose cannon, maybe too independent, maybe too incompetent.
But I would be interested in hearing other people’s thoughts on this.
If the oil is tapping out, so would the influence is my first guess, my second guess is its a political chess move in response to some political loss between democratic administrations.
Hi Mike.
Unable to answer your curiosity directly, but Kashoggi was a decades long CIA asset. As is the Washington Post. Probably why they are crying the loudest at his demise.
Which is not to say I agree anyone – even CIA journalists- should be hacked up and fed through a wood chipper.
That fate IMHO should be reserved for those responsible for the ongoing persecution of the journalist Julian Assange.
Your post prompted me to search for that pic of Kashoggi with Osama bin Larden. Search engine “images” option often finds the most interesting items.
Here’s a neat 2018 piece recapping some of Kashoggi’s many roles in the CIA Great Game across the Middle East, which gained momentum with Brzezinsk’s Grand Chessboard strategy from the late1970s.
Khashoggi
https://thefederalistpapers.org/opinion/democrat-media-hero-khashoggi-friend-bin-laden-book-says
Published Nov 25 2018
Excerpt:
“Khashoggi’s (1988) Arab News report was given the title “Arab youths fight shoulder to shoulder with Mujahedeen” and it detailed the activities of the Al-Qaeda founding members in Pakistan during that crucial period of the Afghani campaign.
An Arab expert in Jihadist issues, who wished to remain anonymous, said that “Jamal Khashoggi keeps forgetting that the participation of Arab Mujahedeen next to the Afghani Mujahedeen was just part of a game controlled by the CIA from beginning to end.”
Our source went on to say: “Jamal Khashoggi was in the end an intelligence agent in journalist clothes. If he’s not found alive, he would be the victim of a *game where journalism and intelligence services are all mixed up* and which he had never imagined that one day it would turn against him.
Usually in these kinds of games, any foreign party can come into the game at the opportune moment to settle certain scores with a certain party.
This time, it looks like it is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.”
Mr Khashoggi’s past acquaintance with Bin Laden is attracting unexpected attention couched with disbelief after controversy erupted over Donald Trump Jr., the son of the US president retweeted messages including one by Patrick Poole, a national security and terrorism correspondent for PJ Media, a conservative news and commentary blog.
In the tweets, Poole shared pictures of Khashoggi with Afghan Mujahedeen and commented: “I didn’t realize until yesterday that Jamal Khashoggi was the author of this notorious 1988 Arab News article of him tooling around Afghanistan with Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda co-founder Abdullah Azzam. He’s just a democrat reformer journalist holding a RPG with jihadists.”
Thanks for your thoughts on this.
They are also pressuring the ruler of Dubai by publishing the story of her daughter Latifa who is being held prisoner.
Clearly they don’t care about the girl. They are just using her to extort the father.
Obviously they want something from the KSA and UAE. Something which the Arab monarchies are reluctant to give.
It’s anyone’s guess what it is they want. But it is definitely the Israelis, and not the Americans, pulling the strings here.
Mike from Jersey,
Theres more to this “United States is looking to hold Saudi Arabia “accountable” for Jamal Khashoggi’s killing”
– Khashoggi was named in Epstein’s ‘little black book’
– Epstein “suicided” (billionaires who know not 1, but 2, US Presidents and a member of the British Royal family, dont suicide): and
– Maxwell is apprehended and held in custody without bail;
I dare say that someone (either in the Clinton camp / the Trump camp / both) wanted JK dead for what he knew or maybe, as a journalist, was threatening to spill the beans – and MBS organized the deadly deed
Now MBS is being double-crossed for not doing whatever the City of London / the US / the zionist entity wants him to do
Its hard to know definitively, given the billions of $$$ in US arms sales at stake

What a contrast between the media and gvernment reaction in contrast to the Kashogi Heath cases. I guess that the media sounds the alarm when it is a member of the media. Kashogi family has been imbedded in tne CIA for at least forty years, and had family members involoved in 9/11 plot. Heath is on trial in media silence. Of course the US had no right to do what they have been doing in Venezueala, but the media has supported the overthrow of Maduro, and the Guaido failed coup. Heath weasn’t a journalist though. Obviously, the media considers non media CIA agents to be extraneous useful idiots to serve their MIICIMATT InfraGard plots.

MBS bad, very bad boy!!!! Why now? MBS, still under the tutelage of his father, is not playing the Israeli game in some way: No overflights to attack Teheran? who knows. But he has offended the Israelis and therein lies the key.
this from Nov 28, 2020 Ha Aretz :
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who reportedly met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this week, has reversed his decision on normalizing ties with Israel after U.S. President Donald Trump lost the November 3 election to Joe Biden, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing official American and Saudi sources.
On Monday, Israeli sources said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flew to Saudi Arabia and met the crown prince and U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
Mossad chief Yossi Cohen also attended the meeting, which took place in the city of Neom, according to the sources. The Prime Minister’s Office declined to comment on the matter. The flight was seen on flight-tracking websites.

Obviously, the media considers non media CIA agents to be extraneous useful idiots to serve their MICIMATT InfraGard plots. The fact that they give CIA members small coins to carry for secret ID purposes to other CIA shows what chump change the government considers them to be. Didn’t ever hear of that till I read this. Surprised that they didn’t give them secret decoder rings, like when the Iran Iraq war took place, the Iranian government gave toy plastic keys to enter the gates of heaven as martyrs to 16 year old boys to run over land mines and clear the way for the military. Stay away from the CIA! You will be safer! Stay away from any organization that is violating constitutional rights, whether the FBI, police, or InfraGard. You will be much safer! It is an organized crime ring. Fools rush in where angels dare to tread!
Fuck trying to overthrow the government!
Over throw the media and tech companies!
Just don’t sign up with the government or tech companies to do it, because if you do, they will overthrow you!
Do not misconstrue this me supporting the government! I am not! It is just being realistic! They do not do anything that is worth supporting! They are guilty of high crimes and treason! They are enemies of the state!
I support the constitution!
I am speaking based on what I have witnessed happen to the alternative media, that chose to focus on the election instead of the scamdemic! They were paid RNC and DNC propagandists, and sacrificial lambs for evil people with evil agendas! I would suggest not taking donations on websites, for the reason that they could have some double agent donate and frame you, after what happened to Trump, which is one of the reasons that I did not take donations on my website, which the alternative media hated me for, and treated me the same way that MSM treats Assange. So, the alternative media hates me, and they have sold out their reputations and call it winning, making them evrry bit as ridiculous as the politicians that they criticize. Then of course there are business laws of having to register a business with the IRS, and if you are taking donations on a website, it is a business. The business registration can be pretty expensive too, as well as creating liabilities.
It is obvious that the Trump administration paid sums hand over fist to bloggers to propagandize for him. The loyalty to Trump by so called conservatives during the scamdemic, lock down, and vaxxing has no other explanation, and Trump even said that he was doing this looking for what he termed information activists, rather than propagandists, using the Global Engagement Center public funds in violation of more campaign finance violations than has ever happened in America!

In honor of our electronic space Old Welsh Dragoness: a kindred soul, I suspect.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-7O-fIYSsY
Nice tribute T13
Just so we’re all on the same page, Wales is world renown as a place to experience a spiritual awakening
When I say “spiritual” – I’m not talking Ouija boards, seances and getting in contact with departed souls. Nor am I claiming that Wales is the only place one can have such experiences
Thank you for that teranam 13.
Yes, a special lady. I loved seeing what she’s done, and all on the principle of “leave only footprints”, and what makes her happy.
It occurred to me – in passing – that it was original and gentle souls like this lady which the RC church, way back, decided were “witches” and we know how they were treated. Another reason, perhaps that RC has never gone down in Cymru.
But – you have “read me” well. I tend to follow this channel a bit. I frequently watch other of the “tiny house” presentations this same young man does. Always of course, adding one’s own “bit” as in “I like that, but I would have ….” which is much of the fun.
However, there is another movement I find interesting, and that is that – given the number of homeless around the world increasing, and the state many are in as we see in, for example, San Francisco, and that is to move to live in woods “a la” medieval days.
Here for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBiu1Emv31Q
And here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gdV_rLzl1c
Personally, given a choice between druggies and street tents in SF or the woods – it’s a no brainer. Give me a simple wattle and daub in the woods every time.
How many will trade a material life for a medieval one, most material livers would die quite quickly were they left to fend for themselves in the woods (Ok, Sanfran woods, while not as cold as say Canada, are much warmer during bush fire season, oh the trade offs). Reminds me of the kid (they made a movie) who went to live off the land in Alaska, where he is now burried. Woods living requires fortitude (not much going around these days) preperation, and sacrifice………”does anyone have a charger” whined the millinial as he shat over the edge of a tree stump.
For a primer on woods living read The Hermit of Gully Lake, we’d bring him warm clothes and blankets in the autum and fresh tabbacie and fruit in the spring. Quite the character. Although, Pam, I think you are talking a more collective type of living, but even those are fraught with egos and personalities. If you get a chance watch an episode of Homestead Rescue, on why some people while good intended, do not have the skill set. It’s a steep learning curve for simple medieval living especially the basics, shelter, fire, water, food, and of course the Kingpresident’s Taxmen are always looking for new streams of revenue and pochers to exploite……
Cheers, M
Oh, yes, under the circumstance of say, for example, me packing up and leaving my little modern condo and opting to go “bush” as Aussies say, I might survive better than many, because of certain attitudes and old knowledge, but I agree – the vast majority of those accustomed to nothing but city and modern living wont survive.
And not only due to lack of knowledge, but of mindset; of things they – we – are conditioned to expect and see in life.
I was thinking of being forced to choose between two bad, not optimum lifestyles. For example, the lady in teranums link has been living as she is for 20 yrs — she knows a lot. And she knows what to expect and what not to.
I dont think many will last long living on the streets either you know. There are a couple of economists who present facts about the Aussie economy. One stated that “last night – I live in Adelaide, a once prosperous, good size city – as I was leaving the office about 6pm, in the closed doorway of the shop next door, a young woman, 22 yrs old, was settling down in a sleeping bag for the night! Once you would never have seen that anywhere in Aus. Now it’s becoming common”.
I am looking down the years, a bit. Not with “rose coloured glasses” of romanticism, but just wondering if the changes we know are coming could result in this as a yet another change. Something has to give, and in a crisis we all tend to fall back on what we know. And we do know how to build these little survival places – well, some do and can be sought out – and we do know how to build a fire, find some water**. It just might arise, spontaneously. Will many fail to survive? Beyond doubt. But could the survivors be the forerunners of a new “back to the past”?
I dont know, but I suspect so. I suspect so because I know that life is, not exactly cyclical, it just looks like that, more like a tight spiral. And we have been living a very unnatural lifestyle with millions of people crammed into spaces, tension and lack of good food and fresh air. And usually something breaks, and the spring reverts back to a previously sustainable method, as a feed back mechanism to maintain a healthy unchanging point.
Perhaps???
** Given that one person I met told me that when he asked a young couple he lived next to in New York why they kept throwing out a pot plant and buying a new one – it turned out they had no idea they were supposed to water the thing!!!!! Survive even a small catastrophe?? I’m afraid no, such people cant.
Musing on Adelaide; Winnipeg’s heated bus shelters (-27C last night), of which there are many, are now home to this city’s less fortunate, some have curtains and other comforts (puts a new light on tiny homes). I bet the heated bus shelter scene plays out in every city across N. America.
Cheers
And to think, when we were young, we really did believe these days were gone for ever. We were going to have summer all our lives.
The shock of that loss, alone, will kill many. So few can handle change, yet it’s the one constant. But we are never taught that, never taught how to handle it.

A slightly abridged version of “A Sitting On A Gate” by Lewis Carrol
https://allpoetry.com/The-Aged-Aged-Man
And now if e’er by chance I stick my fingers into glue
Or madly squeeze a right hand foot into a left hand shoe
Or if I drop upon my toe a very heavy weight
I weep, for it reminds me so
Of a Vineyard character named Bro
His heart is good but seems not to know
How not to step on peoples’ toes
When someone loves the vineyard so
It’s such a shame to see him go
Life is short and time runs fast
Water enough under the bridge has past
Why not come back and join the ‘ yard?
On Dimitri’s day off he can be our bard
Anon 21stC
Anon 21st C, thank you for brief intro to the poem by Lewis Carroll with adaptions ! Perhaps the man on the gate will reappear, if he finds butterflies and makes them into mutton pies and kisses the hand of the tyrant ;)
The Aged Aged Man
I’ll tell thee everything I can;
There’s little to relate.
I saw an aged aged man,
A-sitting on a gate.
“Who are you, aged man?” I said,
“And how is it you live?”
And his answer trickled through my head
Like water through a sieve.
He said, “I look for butterflies
That sleep among the wheat:
I make them into mutton-pies,
And sell them in the street.
I sell them unto men,” he said,
“Who sail on stormy seas;
And that’s the way I get my bread—
A trifle; if you please.”
But I was thinking of a plan
To dye one’s whiskers green,
And always use so large a fan
That they could not be seen.
So, having no reply to give
To what the old man said,
I cried, “Come, tell me how you live!”
And thumped him on the head.
His accents mild took up the tale:
He said, “I go my ways,
And when I find a mountain-rill,
I set it in a blaze;
And thence they make a stuff they call
Rowland’s Macassar-Oil—
Yet twopence-halfpenny is all
They give me for my toil.”
But I was thinking of a way
To feed oneself on batter,
And so go on from day to day
Getting a little fatter.
I shook him well from side to side,
Until his face was blue:
“Come, tell me how you live,” I cried,
“And what it is you do!”
He said, “I hunt for haddocks’ eyes
Among the heather bright,
And work them into waistcoat buttons
In the silent night.
And these I do not sell for gold
Or coin of silvery shine,
But for a copper halfpenny,
And that will purchase nine.
“I sometimes dig for buttered rolls,
Or set limed twigs for crabs;
I sometimes search the grassy knolls
For wheels of hansom-cabs.
And that’s the way” (he gave a wink)
“By which I get my wealth—
And very gladly will I drink
Your Honour’s noble health.”
I heard him then, for I had just
Completed my design
To keep the Menai bridge from rust
By boiling it in wine.
I thanked him much for telling me
The way he got his wealth,
But chiefly for his wish that he
Might drink my noble health.
And now, if e’er by chance I put
My fingers into glue,
Or madly squeeze a right-hand foot
Into a left-hand shoe,
Or if I drop upon my toe
A very heavy weight,
I weep, for it reminds me so
Of that old man I used to know—
Whose look was mild, whose speech was slow,
Whose hair was whiter than the snow,
Whose face was very like a crow,
With eyes, like cinders, all aglow,
Who seemed distracted with his woe,
Who rocked his body to and fro,
And muttered mumblingly and low,
As if his mouth were full of dough,
Who snorted like a buffalo—
That summer evening long ago
A-sitting on a gate
The tyrants are those such as Soros and Gates
Who insist we all vaccinate.
No tyrants are there in this vineyard
Go ahead, kiss the hand, it’s not so hard
Is the hand not hard, or is is not hard to kiss a hard hand ; ) Your post-ditty thingy is like someone I may know, by someone else I may know who shakes mimic’s out of a sleeve into their hands without thinking or blinking…
As for vineyards and tyrants I’ve no idea.
I agree with Anon21stC, great poem, a dose of sane madness in a totally mad world is homeopathic remedy.
There’s a thread on RT this morning, about how Western Media is calling out Putin as behind the attempts to unseat Pashinyan of Armenia, because he said that the anti-missile systems purchased from Russia didn’t work and were falling to bits.
“In an article by journalist Anna Nemtsova published on Friday, New York-based outlet The Daily Beast claimed that “Putin may have triggered an attempted coup in Armenia” because of a public spat over the effectiveness of the Russian-made Iskander missile systems. ”
In the comments section there was this comment
“People believe what they want to, and reject anything that does not fit their personal prejudices. So western media know that they can say anything without fear of a challenge, and that even if they do retract a mendacious statement, the original lie will remain embedded in the tiny brains of the hard of thinking. This is why people continue to bleat about Russian meddling, even years after that DNC fabrication has been thoroughly debunked.”
”
To which I replied:
“You are correct, but there is one important feature of people they don’t seem able to grasp. It’s that everything and everyone has a saturation limit. There comes a time when “this isn’t news, I’ve heard it a 100 times before”. For many, it’s just a case of “Yawn, boring !! Heard this, move on”. For others a bit brighter it becomes “Heard this ages ago, heard it many times, but — I dont see anything bad happening. No Russian tanks rolling down the high street. His country seem to like him. Hmmm. Wonder if it’s all BS”.
For more of us it’s “Ho Hum. Here they go again. They really have nothing on him do they, but they keep banging the same drum?. Sounds to me like they’re out of ideas and running on empty”. And I think most people are at that point. Saturated with anti-Russian propaganda, bored with it, and over it. Of course, there’s always the total envy driven dim-wits who go along with it, but like death and taxes they are always with us and if that’s all the sabre rattlers have to support them, they are in a bad way. thank goodness“.
My reply was reject as contravening standards.
Anyone any idea what was so offensive about it – apart from calling out the msm of Oceania??, which it would appear RT in UK doesn’t like readers to do???
According to the 2 Alex’s of Duran, RT is on the list for UK’s MI6 to ban completely. Beginning to wonder if that wouldn’t be an OK idea!!
Oh – I did get through a comment that anyone interested in what I had to say which didn’t make it past the censors should come here to find it :-) :-) {Hah. Flame, flame !! }
Big monopolies set to gobble up the municipal electrical co ops, never letting a good crisis go to waste. Nationalize the power companies!!!…well, uh under fascism that will be no problem.

Another damning article on ‘vaccine ‘ roll out :
https://www.globalresearch.ca/beware-rna-based-potentially-serious-injury-causing-vaccines-pfizer-moderna-others/5738599
From it the following startling revelation :
“…Australia has banned any medical establishment, doctors, medical personnel, pharmacies, hospitals from divulging to their patients the origin or brand of the vaccine they are being given. Fines and penalties could run as high as US$ 880,000 equivalent, plus five years in jail in case of a conviction by a court of law….”
If patients are not even allowed to know which so called vaccine they are being given, informed consent becomes not only impossible but illegal too ! I can hardly believe this is true. Would be interested to know what Australians think about being treated with this level of contempt.
I doubt they even know Sandy. Unless the guys on the Sky Channel found out and tell them. But most who stick to MSM TV along with the evening steak and beer are not going to know. And most, I suspect, not even care.
I am not happy, as I have a daughter living there. I have to think of a way to get her to avoid this.
But, once again – why would they go these extremes? It gets back to “what in hell is REALLY going on”.
Oh and – when I was still working there, and the issue of the refugees, various illegal migrants, asylum seekers, arriving over thousands of miles of open water, and being taking to prison camps on Manus Island, we were told, as medical personel, that if we worked there and said one word to anyone of the conditions, the suicides, the sickness, we would be fired, disbarred, fined and up for a prison sentence.
It’s not a new behaviour for Aus governments, you see.

Perhaps the lunatic PM of Victoria has, via blow back, woken it up.
To be hoped so.
Thanks Siljan,
hopefully the start of a groundswell against covid cult indoctrination.
Same here in my state. “You will not be able to choose which vaccine you receive” and “we strongly encourage you to take whichever vaccine you are offered” is clearly stated. Just so happens I want the vaccine my health provider in not providing. So now I have to hunt down a provider of the Vaccicne I perfer. This should
be interesting. I could in the end become not vaccinated for want of a provider if I can’t find one.
“If patients are not even allowed to know which so called vaccine they are being given, informed consent becomes not only impossible but illegal too !”

why not just demand Sputnik V:

“Currently, the main efforts in the fight against COVID-19 in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are aimed at continuing the voluntary vaccination of servicemen. To date, over 286,000 servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces have undergone voluntary vaccination with the first component of the Sputnik V vaccine,” the ministry said.
The Ministry of Defense clarified that in preparation for the parade dedicated to the 76th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, voluntary vaccination of servicemen of parade crews continues. “Currently, the first component of the vaccine received more than 14 thousand participants in the parade, the second component – more than 5 thousand servicemen,” the ministry said.

“NATO warplanes to Moscow and back”
” Something incredible.
The second flight of the Slovak air force is flying to Moscow. The first one returned a few minutes ago and landed in Kosice (Eastern Slovakia).
The Prime Minister and the Minister of health of Slovakia are currently flying to Kosice. A press conference has been announced.
This is the first one that has just returned to Slovakia.
The second one is on approach to Moscow, its radar shows SQF101
Most likely, we are talking about the Sputnik V vaccine, which was rejected by the government for days, for the first time in the modern history of Slovakia, a coalition party (Pro-American) used a veto.
If so, then the Slovaks give a head start to the Hungarians. Silently, in secret, without registration at all, not only in the EU, but even at home.
Oh, that’s about to start…as our children said when joining the EU: we have destroyed the COMECON, we will also destroy the EU.
(to be continued) in the comments
Author’s comment:
The secret night flight of a C-27J Spartan cargo plane that landed at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport on Monday morning shows that Slovakia has brought Russian Sputnik V vaccines from Russia. The plane returned to Slovakia in the afternoon and landed in Kosice.
The flight of a Slovak military plane to Moscow is very unusual. NATO military vehicles usually land in Russia only on flights for humanitarian or medical reasons.
‘
it would appear Slovakia is going to tell the EU where to store it’s rules on where they can obtain a vaccine they trust, and have just gone ahead and organised to suit themselves.
But it does appear as tho they are getting more and more prepared to be “in your face” about disregarding Brussels.
I
wonder.

California the view from Russia”
Dostoevsky – like vision, California a totally collapsed, rotted mess. As said in another piece “Dragonfly Summer for the USA – a masterpiece of Analysis”
And now – the crumbling building of “global hegemony” is going to bury the United States itself in its current form. And the vast majority of the country does not even think about it, considering that the summer of the Dragonfly will last forever.
I don’t know the reason for this allegory – wish I did. Perhaps someone with a knowledge of Russia and her idioms can help. But I like it’s sound – that for Russia, this is America’s “Dragonfly summer”
And finally, a member of Duma has voiced the need for Russia to prepare to leave the ECHR, if it continues with its plans to form a trilateral commission to monitor Russia over Navalny. As he said – “we dont need them. We can form our CHR with our allies, or if they dont want to, we can make our own arrangement for the security of our citizens. But the European one we dont need”.
Again, step by quiet step, Russia is moving away from the Franco-German dominated nations of the Atlantic Peninsula, leaving them to make what can of the coming New Age with their own kind, the AngloSaxon Empire.

Tyson,
re the children being jabbed, this is the same trick that was tried with statins. Suddenly there were articles suggesting everyone should be on statins – even children – as a preventive measure. The drug-pusher’s mind set – get them young then you have a customer for life.
I saw the predictable Guardian article – there was a similar one by George (Gideon ) Osbourne at the Evening Standard a few weeks ago ( I think I posted it ) claiming that vaccination would be mandatory because the people would demand it. Another typical propaganda trick – convince people this is what everyone thinks – then many, or even most will go along with it. I knew this gambit would come – after all they’re throwing everything at us – wall-to-wall covid, all day, every day.
What worries me is that the techniques have been honed over centuries – and they’re very effective. I think it was Goebbel’s who said the best propaganda is the kind you’re not aware of, that is unconsciously taken in.. The expertise and taxpayer’s money that’s being thrown at this is hard to overstate – there are adverts everywhere I go, blaring covid mania, there is a constant campaign on all media – every store, shop, public place is drenched in it.
” This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without ever noticing that they are being immersed in it. ”
Joseph Goebbels
And the onslaught continues. How much is being unwittingly absorbed by a kind of osmosis ? I would suggest if people are not actively protecting themselves against it, it’s going in.
Silence is when I have nothing to say.
Silence is when I say no way,
with no particular sway.
Silence is present when I’m mad,
but wont explain why I’m sad.
Silence is golden, if not left beholden.
Silence is what I do when I’m alone,
not when I’m on the phone.
Silence is good, or silence is bad,
it just depends on how much you’ve had.
Silence is what I leave behind when I go away,
And even sometimes when I want too stay.
Silence is with me when I sleep,
but definitely not when I weep.
Silence me or silence you,
but just dont try it with foo.
FYI,
There was a comment that Slovakia has turned to Russia for supply of the Sputnik-V vaccine, whcui I cant seem to locate

I think those in Russia that think they can work with the Belarusian opposition are fooling themselves.This statement from the opposition stooge says it all. Talking to the Germans about when Lukashenko leaves office, “We hope for a strong alliance with the new US administration and the EU. Pressure will increase day by day, and at some point, it will become too much for Lukashenko, and he will leave”. Just as the Ukrainian opposition was Russia’s enemy,so is the Belarussian opposition.Thinking otherwise is a fatal error.It’s best for now that Lukashenko remain in power,and that time be used to connect the Russian and Belarussian military,political system,and civil society together totally.Combine the economy so close together that no one could or would want to try and undo it.The last think Russia needs is a second Ukraine on her border.
