Saker Webmaster
The new Calendar 2020 is ready. This time it won’t be two calendars, there will be only one, a universal calendar with paintings made by me. It won’t be printed but it will be available for download in this blog or via this blog through a link for free. You will have to wait until December this year, probably up to Christmas.
Yours, ioan
I’ve been fortunate to see it. Truly, a beautiful piece of work; with the added dimension of a Master Artist’s interpretation of timeless Orthodox Christian church interiors. Congratulations, ioan!
Three Poems that came out of contemplation, inspired by “Antidote”, by kpax, from last Cafe.
Who Does This Heart Belong To?
You that dwell in my heart;
How is it I cannot find you?
After last night’s conversation,
I felt sure we’d sealed our
friendship forever.
The difficulty I have with
finding you, is that you are
not that which I thought you
were; nor is my heart my own.
I hesitated for a moment,
and lost the beat. Now I have
to start all over again.
Horizons and Colours
There’s a feeling I have when
I look at you. My poetry is about
that. A kind of remembering.
Words point to horizons, and
colours, that; once combined,
give off certain vibrations.
All this speaks of your presence!
But how does a simple, crude hut
contain the majesty of sky?
Or the depth of an ocean?
Or the song of a bird?
The Circle of Existence
There are newlyweds next door.
They’ve kept me up all night.
Outside, the town is full of drunkards.
Rousing about, fighting; breaking things.
This morning everything is quiet.
But the sound of my beating heart
was so loud, that I could find no rest!
What now? How do I get outside
the circle of this existence?
Heart expanding, Dimitar…
No border No outside
Circle is 9, centre is 1
All together cosmos and heart make 10…
Completeness.
Unconditional Love is complete
Self fulfillment
Innocence of the discovery…
Invocations from the inner child
The Power uttered behind each word
Creates the temple out of a simple… Hut.
Thank you for your wisdom, friend! The pure joy of being a conduit, when one trusts wholly, exactly as you’ve put it; like a child. With no questions asked, nor ‘answers sought’, just pure acceptance… Are you game? If so, come take a walk into Silent Raining Fire…
Remotely Yours
Intuitive surfers on board
On the waves of poetry
Ebbs and flows sleepers
Casteways from illusion
As Ras put it down below
Twin towers of ego walk
Into Silent Raining Fires
Who dunnit is… within
Ho’oponopono in full
Collective integration
Until the mind is still
Fused into a zero limit
Are you still… there
Read… ‘Castaways’…
Still a caste apart…
In any other possible ways
Merged into an ocean of Love
kpax; you mentioned in passing, a few days back, the distinction between West and East. Here you mention again, “an ocean of love”, a term I’m familiar with, and which my good friend, the Australian poet Daevid Allen, used repeatedly in the lead-up to his translation, or death, in early 2015. Here are a pair of portraits I made of Daevid in that period, the second, posthumous; http://www.valenis.net/gallery3.php#image-6,
http://www.valenis.net/gallery3.php#image-5, and Daevid’s own performance site, which is still up; http://www.daevidallen.net/daevidallen/index.html, containing a detail of a third portrait from 2005.
This is all a lead-in to what many poets find quite natural; ie; the inner world, but what I find interesting is that the East is far better aquainted with the inner worlds, than the West. There is a wonderful and exacting description of Mysticism by Nicolas Berdyaev, 20th C. Russian Philosopher, from his book, “Freedom and Spirit”, p 241. He makes an excellent distinction between mysticism and magic, often confused by the
Western mindset.
“Above all, we must make a radical distinction between mysticism and magic. These spheres are totally different but are easily confused, for while the nature of mysticism is spiritual, that of magic is naturalistic. Mysticism is union with God, magic with the spirits of nature and its elemental forces. Mysticism is the sphere of liberty, magic of necessity. Mysticism is detached and contemplative, magic is active and militant; it reveals the secret forces of humanity and of the world without being able to reach the depths of their divine origin. Mystical experience constitutes precisely a spiritual deliverance from the magic of the natural world, for we are fettered to this magic without always recognizing it. Mysticism is compared to magic because of the existence of a pseudo-mysticism. There are two types of such false mysticism, one naturalistic, the other psychological. But neither of them are effective means of reaching the real depths of the world of nature and of the soul. The only true mysticism is that of the Spirit, in which a false magic and a false psychologism are both avoided. It is only in the depths of spiritual experience that man attains to God and passes beyond the limits of the natural and physical world.”
Dimitar,
Much grateful for sharing your wonderful artwork, friendship and experience with a great poet and illuminated man.
I would definitely agree with the expressed views above either on state of beingness in mysticism (West vs East) or existential aspects of magics… psychological/physical manifestations.
To be truthful to ‘my’ own experience is the only way I can relate to what I know objectively or perceive of myself in fondamental understandings… when witnessing phenomena. First and foremost each one grounded and walking this earth possesses a body and a few senses… depending on what each make out of them in the gross or refined version.
I’d guess I picked up some earlier vibes in the meantime and dug up an older idea, then wrote it in ‘Key Facts’ further into this café. There is a moment when we acknowledge this merger with the mystic state in surrender or union.
I do not see this bonding as a process but much like forgiveness… either we do or don’t. One cannot forgive another 83.5%… for his/her trespasses or surrender only the left brain!
In this dilemma we cannot provide answers and qualify a state of beingness (perhaps something like ‘in deep silence’ or… in ‘Woahhhoh!’… lacking for words), reason being it involves a complete trust (much more than faith). I can only effectively relate to it in the action of life or in the doing (karma yoga, service)… here comes the magic.
The one magic in a good way… by opposition to the other types where some individual dare to indulge in, promote and attack others.
Protections or shields come handy, from self illumiation to high mind power. As would Power versus force.
Being associated in this sphere of life for almost 30 years… I have seen and experienced countless… singularities, synchronicities, material manifestations, instant psychic healing/surgeries (distant or under my very eyes by psychic practitioners), time shifts, visions, premonitions, etc… applied and directed to the service of others.
I could write volumes and the channeling speaks of even more. Problem: people would make of what is left of ‘me’ by such statements… something of what I am not.
Have I ever asked/prayed for anything of that sort in my life… never. It just happened.
Point taken it does not bode well with generally accepted way in occidental mode of living unless promoted and exploited to profit religious entities or business/political activities. Certainly much more adapted to the Orient without somehow sinking too low into the superstitious where many do.
In complete stillness I go back to this ‘Ocean of Love’ for a bath, in a point of infinite possibilities (dead centre)… or whenever prayers/rituals send ‘me’ to a very altered state of consciousness…. Crown Chakra like a chopper propeller… Heart Centre like a huge sunflower…
Do I need words?
Never made a deal with God though… (Only and only… when prompted), in the traditional “May Thy Will be done” or “Is That Your Will”, without expectation or intentional reward. When requested in sheer and genuine earnest… the Divine never fail to show up and brighten up the right path of action… never never any bad karma resulted from that kind of intuitive guidance.
Thanks for your thoughts, kpax. I’ll try to wind it in, not wanting to imbalance the thread w. a long, philosophical discussion. My understanding and approach is essentially, that we live in this cosmic ether; the Soul body dwells literally in the Ocean of Love and Mercy at all times, though we entertain the psychic bodies so often at Soul’s expense and buy into the illusion of “what the hell’s going on?” ( too much effect, not enough cause ), whereas in fact, Seeing, Knowing, Being is a deeper mode that becomes more and more familiar and natural, should we care to ‘take up the ploughshare’ and make the effort to keep Soul’s eyes, ears and deeper sense of perception, open and in living, vital mode. Forgiveness frees us up, and the less attachments we have to this world, the greater we’re able to move in the Ocean of Love. We have the freedom to bide our time in any state of consciousness; its a spiritual crime to detain another Soul, as it is to push one into any state of being against their will, something few understand. As artists/ poets etc. we try to sow seeds of inspiration, for that to me is the true trigger toward the desire to take a spiritual step. Great music, art, poetry trades in these ‘indefinables’, and to me, at least, makes life bearable, exciting and gives me a reason to get up every day. Thanks for the time youve taken to put yr thoughts/experiences down; its been/is illuminating, and always wonderful to meet a friend and break bread. Meanwhile, In Spirit…
mystic poetry –
ocean of love and mercy,
within and without
More than bathing
Ready for poetry surfing
Mystic humour
laughter among friends;
when love-dogs howl at the moon
and cry for the sun
And when old flames fade in the oven
Their roosting days number in singles
Never mind all ruffled feathers ‘n tingles
Roasted on Earth for a… kiss in Heaven
A re-write of the third poem;
There are newlyweds next door.
They’ve kept me up all night.
Outside, the town is full of drunkards.
Rousing about, fighting; breaking things.
This morning everything is quiet.
But the sound rushing through my head
is so loud, that I cannot find any rest!
When ‘that sound’ is quietened,
‘This Sound’ takes over!
What now? How do I get outside
the circle of this existence?
Or is there nowhere to go?
A wonderful shower of poems, also really appreciate the discussion,and the words of Nicolas Berdyaev.
Heaven and Earth
I wanted to show you something;
The way heaven and earth converge.
I wanted to tell you something;
The way pigeons drag their
tail feathers in the dirt.
I wanted to ask you something;
The way children ask a loving parent.
I wanted to remind you of something;
But the sun and moon are only allowed
a single kiss in passing.
That’s why I resort to all this
crazy love-poetry!
Earth
Where all pigeons come
Home to roast
Heaven
Where all doves come
Home to kiss
dark and mangy roast;
warning; may contain gristle!
promise of a kiss
Some birds may go out in lean coats
Homing back with news and… stuffs
More farce than pigeons to the roast
If… the goodnight kiss is not enough
Joke aside…
We should edit some of this… ‘Saloon’ poetry with all profit towards Saker’s good cause, under the title: “Roasted in Farcebook”
Of course; a way to give something back!
kpax; would you mind going to my site; follow those links above, to the Homepage, and go to Contact. Send me yr email, and we can discuss. Blessings, and thanks for responding, its been fun, but definitely needs to be looked at more seriously.
In these days of elections in Israel, Gilad Atzmon comes with a daring article in which he predicts the implosion of Israel. Not so much to do with politics, but more based on deep rifts in society.
Even more, while Europe is flooded with illiterate immigrants endangering societies (and who would be behind that.. ), it is sheer irony that Israel might also do that on themselves.
Within a generation, already half of Israels population will be ultra orthodox jews – just demography. They belong to the poorest people, while most rabbinical schools just refuse to teach them useful stuff like math, science, and English. Useless for a high-tech society. Atzmon writes that Israel might implose on itself.
It is ironic that Talmudic Zionism is already parasitic in nature, and might at last be suffocated by parasites inside themselves.

Is Zionism more than the recognition of Israel as the homeland for the Jews?
Essentially, no imho.
Zionism isn’t seen as a principle in Israel, more as a historic precedent. That a very large majority of Jewish Israelis (don’t forget that some 25% of Israeli citizens is muslim) hasn’t *any* historic anchors to the tribe of Judea and Israel is such another thing.
You won’t see ‘Zion’ or ‘Zionism’ back in any political party in Israel, and they are quite a few. ‘Judaism’ and being ‘Jewish’ so much more. They consider themselves as ‘the Jewish state’ and will eventually act so in unrooting anything that is not ‘Jewish’ in Israel, because essentially it is a tribe. For so long as it might last.
The concept ‘Zionism’ might be something of the past as considered by Jews themselves. It may be held up decoratively a little bit to bind the -large, outnumbering American Jews- Christian Zionists. The latter one are obsessed with the Old Testament, wanting ‘dominionism’ (a kind of imposing biblical laws on the world, most probably more of the OT than the NT), end times, an end battle with Persia and the glorious ‘rapture’. Scary people. Unfortunately Pence and Pompeo belong to them.
What I have mentioned as ‘Talmudic Zionism’ may be more recognizable uttered (by me) than actually right. We throw here with the term ‘Anglozionists’, for example. Essentially, I think, ‘Zionism’ as recognized now is the toxic marriage of Christian Zionists, Israeli recognizing Jews (not all Jews do that) with their Talmudic principles written by men and not God, and some parties more. Count the Saudi princelings to that, for instance. But Talmudic principles might be central, though non-Jewish parties remain silent about that for opportunistic reasons I guess.
Good question, but a complicated subject. I’ll leave it further to the Saker and eloquent writers on this complicated subject like Gilad Atzmon and Laurent Guyenot to delve into that.
Ok, I’ve tried ;-)
Cheers, Rob
Zionism is Nazism for Jews. The similarities eg the Herrenvolk, Aryan or Jew, the lust for ‘lebensraum in the East’, Poland and Russia or Eretz Yisrael, the dedication to ‘blood and soil’, the hyper-belligerence, the aggression, the de-humanisation of their victims etc, are too great to ignore. But you must do so-or else.
Thanks Rob & Mulga. How does Zionism influence American and Australian politics today? I have heard it referenced, but can’t quote. Are the elite bankers Zionists e.g. Rothschilds?
The Rothschilds zionists? Definitely.
I’m not familiar with Australian politics, there are others here who are. Being a part of the Five Eyes, they won’t differ to much from DC.
For the influence on American politics there may be a lot of sources (or just look up any speech of Nikki Haley), let me give you a link to a recent article on the history of Christian Zionism in the USA by Whitney Webb. Bit long, but really readworthy: http://www.unz.com/article/the-untold-story-of-christian-zionisms-rise-to-power-in-the-united-states/
Cheers, Rob
There is a lot to scratch one’s head about. Besides Atmon’s article, from seven years ago there’s this. Coming from such a gray eminence as K, was the impermanence and resulting apocalyptic chaos something foreseen, priced in, even when the project was shiny and new?
What ever happened to the Start-Up Nation?
Are we entering a period of post-zionism?

Could there be a pod of poets as well as peas please ? More please, as Oliver Twist dared to ask.
Your comment welcome, as the above was inspired not only by the recent thread, ( someone local reporting rainbow marks – oil/grease on puddles plus other thoughts), but also a concealed metaphor for another scenario. To make that work and palatable at the same time…

Non-Muslim goods boycott a ‘ticking time bomb’ in Mahathir’s Malaysia
Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad advised Malaysians against taking part in any boycott. “A boycott is
an ineffective weapon, [it will only] create anger. Do not boycott anybody, Bumiputra or non-Bumiputra,”
he said, referring to ethnic Malays and indigenous people in Malaysia.

… meet Graham Hancock …
How do you think the pyramids were built Graham Hancock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3TQbV6cfQM
( an arrogant, self opinionated, misinformation artist )
There are many reasons people (Graham is only 1 of billions….) do not see what you see, or I see…or any of us “feels”:
They are they, and not any of “us” .
The reason for him not reading your book may not be his dedication to misinformation…but rather more of a different focus on WHY the Pyramids of Giza………..and WHAT function they really had….as opposed to HOW the stones were raised…
It is plausible to me that lack of time…or.too much cannabis at the moment his opportunity to hear from your (ONE…I presume…effort to get Raising Stones 1 to him) HOW perspective…,or emotional distraction….financial pressure….inability or unwillingness to shift “belief” or any number of causes that we all are prone to explains his failure…to this point in time of considering your evidence.
EGO…and his need to “keep the lights on”….ie SELL HIS BOOKS..not promote yours…….that’s always there….in all human affairs.
Regretably…but inevitably, most of the time…those narrow personal concerns cloud the stumbling in the dark search for truth….of almost every searcher………..and delay parts of its discovery.
But not always. So don’t get too frustrated! LOL
Bro … Hancock was asked specifically …
How do you think the pyramids were built Graham Hancock ?
He avoids the question after stating no one can ever know !
and then reels off construction specs anyone can find …
and does so in overdrive to give the illusion he is educated.
Yes, he does sell books … to the gullible masses.
I enjoy Graham Hancock’s “News Desk” which makes for a refreshing break from the mire of geopolitics. I’ve attended one of his lectures, read, and purchased some of his books. I may not share his enthusiasm for ayahuasca but I have no difficulty being selective regarding intake of information.
From at least one of comments here, it seems that you too are an author. I am interested in knowing more.
Promoting your own work might be a more palatable way of expressing your dissatisfaction.
HJay … Hancock has rejected my work “off the cuff” and claims no one can know how the Pyramids were constructed.
My research proves Giza Pyramid builders used wooden step-walking pulleys with a mechanical advantage of 2.8 … using rack and pinion mechanics.
My book “Raising Stone 1” is available via this website.
My work consists of two discoveries …
firstly … how Pyramid blocks were raised, solving the twenty year time frame for construction.
What Herodotus documented is proven absolutely correct.
secondly … I then suspected the “wheels within wheels” machines spoken of by Ezekiel in the Old Testament were connected to Giza Pyramid construction and have translated all the verses of Ezekiel Chapter 1.
Here are some links.

Google search … haitheory … Raising Stone 1 … Ezekiel translated
I have read your book “Raising Stone” and you are correct. It is exactly how the pyramids were built. Your references and interpretations to Herodotus are also correct. It all makes credible sense.
But not everyone wants to know.
Academics may be the hardest to convince. They are in reality entertainers with a story to tell.
They have big ego’s and make bold statements such as Graham Hancock who may claim no one can know how the Pyramids were constructed. He is reserving his right to discovery and by his behaviour will recognise no one else’s. Academics that make bold statements are not likely to back down or surrender to another person’s discovery or theory. They simply do not care.
Jack Horner has encountered exactly the same issue, and mentions “ Scientists have Ego’s”
He has duplicated his popularity by looking at the funny side of it and discusses the issues caused by this mindset. The video is called Shape-Shifting Dinosaurs “The Cause of a premature Extinction” We can all learn from Jack Horner, about how we present ourselves. He creates curiosity, discovery and mocks scientists ego’s using humour. The video is very funny and can be downloaded at

I’m paying to be online and for the web-hosting … God Bless America !
Discounting others is soo easy and rewarding when doing it – and soo sad and hard to swallow when receiving it…
… try being articulate
Facebook denighed me on my first application(they never gave a reason and they were not worth pursuing the matter), my web site disappeared a couple years after it the information was deemed to be to politically offensive to publish(many years later I paid a very rich person to rifle through the cloud and retrieve it), so now if I choose to follow up on my law suit against a tyrannical gvt, I have the ammo to shoot them down at will. (and continue the proof that “politicians are nothing more than the study of human denial)
We can all be targeted for political destruction if one is important enough to be targeted, we can at the same time defend ourselves with words if we are talented enough to find them. We can also go on the offensive if one has the time, inclination, and money to choose to do so, my offensive maneuvers often leads to innocent countries being sanctioned in the name of “communication” so as to not be swept under the rug of “diplomacy”.
God blessed America, B/C no one else will.

Variations on the Subjective Theme….the individual, as player, not mere spectator of 911 or anything else…last referenced here:
/some-of-the-many-things-most-americans-never-heard-about-9-11/#comment-695381
Now the subject is formerly long term Blue Pilled Sister. We all have several, even if they are not blood siblings..
But her older (earlier) Red Pilled Sister starts the thread:
“neon revolt…who has resurfaced almost 2 weeks after dropping his ‘daily’ Notables ‘promise’… apparently a busy boy.. and who brings in several recent subjects… most notably the dark history of CIA tentacles into multiple lines of mind control.. the early days of what morphed into MK-Ultra.. the deeper CIA intent for Hollywood.. way past ‘propaganda’.. another ‘honey pot’ location in New Orleans predating and concurrent with Epstein…. etc., etc.,
https://www.neonrevolt.com/2019/09/16/project-hedonia-bob-heath-and-deepstate-experiments-in-mass-mind-control-hollywood-cia-cdan-qanon-greatawakening-neonrevolt/
Earlier, Formerly sytubbornly Blue Pilled sister said she couldn’t muster nay sympathy for Balsey-Ford…..I replied something like…”Try harder, think of her as a slave.” but today’s thread started by her older sister allows more elaboration on the subjective dynamic the spectator of objects…………….most frequently forgets….where are THEY as Players, not Spectators in this drama and hopefully …not Tragedy???:
my reply to BPS with cc to RPS:
“Getting back to your comment about finding it “hard to sympathize with Blasey-Ford” and her muddled accusations of sexual assault against now confirmed Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh….and my reply, suggesting you view her as “a slave”….without a mind or will of her own…consider .this excerpt from Neon’s latest, the excerpt beginning with a short continuation of the very in depth expose of the precursor to Epstein’s Island, “The House on St Charles Street, New Orleans (that was burned to the ground to erase the human compromising center’s clues …to deny them to investigators) and the role of Dr Heath of Tulane University….and then referencing Christine:
Dr Heath says:
“We found that if we put the chemicals directly into the basal forebrain, and particularly, acetylcholine, that we could produce- we could fire those cells, and produce sort of a “focal discharge” in the septal region, which had the ability to inhibit discharges in the hippocampus, with which it was connected.”
“Indelible in the hippocampus.”…observes NEON:
Hello. Sound familiar?
That was Christine Blasey Ford’s line about her own memory of the Kavanaugh “assault.” Now, Q already told us she was an MKULTRA victim herself, but right here – if you’re paying attention – is Dr. Heath all but admitting he found a way to stop the creation of memories by inhibiting the functionality of the hippocampus, when he injected a chemical into another site of the brain.
He doesn’t frame it like that, but anyone who understand the anatomy understands the radical implications of what he’s talking about here. And make no mistake, the ability to subject a person to trauma, and then even prevent a memory of the trauma from forming is a pretty classic thing we hear from MKULTRA victims.
Dr. Heath is describing here the mechanics of how it works.
This was, most likely, an accidental discovery (much like how the team who discovered Viagra was looking for a new vasodialator to help with heart disease, only to discover its particular “side effect” – which, as we all know, became the main selling point of that little blue pill). He says as much that it was used to treat seizures – but the other “use case” cannot be ignored here.
And remember the quote from Claudia Mullen – one of the women who testified before Congress in 1995 about being a mind control victim:
“By the time I left to go home – just like every time from then on – I would recall nothing of my tests or the different doctors. I would only rememeber whatever explanations Dr. Robert G. Heath (of Tulane Medical School) gave me for the odd bruises, needle marks, burns on my head and fingers and even the genital soreness. I had no reason to believe otherwise. Already they had begun to control my mind!”
Me, back to Sistas:
NOW…..consider that these extreme degrees experimented with by Dr Heath (Blasey Ford being one of them, according to Neon….via Q) filter down to much lesser degrees of mind control by victims of MSM, cinema and so forth as detailed in the article….meaning you…and I and everyone you know……….is similarly affected…to one degree or another….especially in their subconscious....and about all you can do about it is be forewarned…..try to apply your conscious mind to mental hygiene and regular “cleansing” and red-pilling of yourself and others…or these Luciferian control freaks will turn everyone around us…and then us…into frickin zombies or corpses.
“There’s a war on for your mind.”…is quite clearly the case.
Blasey-Ford is a prisoner of that war…..captured and then re-deployed by the Enemy of Humanity.
Simple!
But we’re not members of an audience solely, “watching a movie”. We are in the Larger Movie….of the Reality Movie these freaks intend TO MAKE….and have been making……….
Figure out how to not let them succeed. Simple!
Start by realizing that we are more than mere onlookers. We are tested by being clued in as to what is afoot….. and then…if we passively consent (the Evildoers calculate)…they are kharmicly absolved!
So while having SOME empathy for their weaponized slave…..Christine…resist her controllers…..don’t absolve them of their Kharma!”
RPS finishes the thread:
“haha.. and while I was reading certain sections, I had the Trump NM Rally in the background waiting for Trump to come out… and the song they were playing..? ‘There is a house in New Orleans.. they call the Rising Sun….'”
Oh Mothers. tell your children
Not to do as I have done
Spend your life in ruin and misery

Get done with the Q stuff Bro. There has been a moderation update … some months ago already.
MK Ultra – loads and loads of analysis on this but again, it takes time to work through.
“15) New! Okay, I had it! This Q-anon nonsense is literally polluting the comments section. There are plenty of terrific websites to discuss the “oh so amazing” Q-anon statements, there is NO need to do that here. So, from now on and until further notice any and all comments including “Q-anon” or any references to “Q-anon” are to be immediately intercepted and those who posted it warned that the next time around, they will be banned.”
/moderation-policy/
If I had or have to choose between the “17th letter of the alphabet”- anon and the Saker site, which I have visited and contributed for a long time, I would have to choose that letter. I don’t have to choose and I will miss it’s inclusion as I feel it is an important piece to a puzzle that is becoming clear. It would be like voluntarily removing a cylinder in a Formula 1 car.
It’s unbelievable to have this major topic banned, I genuinely don’t understand why, and would really appreciate knowing…
ras
There is plenty of great content still out there, without it having the imprimatur of some Q. Take the work of Aaron and Melissa Dykes http://truthstreammedia.com/
The banning of Q is a non-issue. I feel that the Neon reporting of Rex crew and Tulane corruption is worthy content. What is probably not wanted is the navel gazing that comes with having an anonymous authority/LARP/literary device.
Could someone explain why Edward Snowden does not want to remain in Russia? I thought the Russian elites would give Snowden a seat at their table after sharing all of the classified data with them? It does not make sense.
Edward Snowden Implores Macron To Grant French Asylum
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/edward-snowden-implores-macron-grant-french-asylum
Saker: Why does Snowden want to leave Russia?
Because he is an entitled little … you know the next word.
I listened to his interview this morning with one of the Main Stream TV networks, and he did not even say thank you to Russia for saving his seating area when his own government withdrew his passport while he was in a transfer area in Russian airport. He cannot be bothered to say a short thank-you – he just expresses disdain for Russia. He does not really speak a word of the language and hangs out with other expats … all he said is the Putin is a dictator and he has not changed his mind about that, after all these years in Russia. But then he goes on to say how bad his own government is, and the troubles that he has with his own and what he describes is fully dictatorship. But he cannot be bothered to say thank-you. Here is the interview that I watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9yK1QndJSM
The only word that I have, is entitled. I actually smell something really wrong here, but I do not know what it is but I was not impressed with the man.
I have learned that groups of Americans hanging out together in Europe are usually loud and obnoxious. Sadly, the average European forms perceptions of Americans based on the behavior of US soldiers stationed there. Everyone knows that most enlisted people in the US military come from the lowest dregs of American society.
I thought that Snowden wanted to maintain a low profile. Why would he blow his cover and admit he hangs out with other Americans speaking English all day. He just made himself easier to find. Not to learn the language of the country that is hosting you is disrespectful indeed – if that is the case.
I thought that Snowden and his wife would obtain Russian citizenship and also achieve privileged status among the Russian elites. Didn’t he already meet Putin? Learning Russian would have helped him blend in. Why isn’t Snowden considered a rock star in Russia. Didn’t he do the Russians a favor by sharing secrets?
After what happened to Assange, Snowden knows he can never return to the USA. Perhaps everything in the interview is disinformation. Could it be that Snowden is saying these things only because he is selling a book and needs media attention?
Snowden cannot move to ANYWHERE in the world because he will be renditioned to the USA and life in Supermax Hell. His only hope is that Putin lives long and is succeeded by another Russian patriot, not a Yeltsin-like stooge. He seems awfully naive.
Take a look : US sues Snowden for violating ‘CIA & NSA non-disclosure pact’ with his new book, but it also wants the proceeds
https://www.rt.com/usa/469017-snowden-book-cia-nsa/
He better start living fully in Russia and be thankful.
… Putin can always decide to make a phone call on Snowden’s behalf ;-)
In Putin’s position I would be tempted.
… with a song …
Robert Palmer- Simply Irresistible (With Lyrics)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZSgwQoTeiQ
Perhaps I can cut Snowden somewhat of a break.
Snowden says Russia is only country with foreign policy independent enough to shelter him
https://tass.com/world/1078633
But am I wrong to want to hear a simple thank-you from him? And Putin is a dictator without saying the circumstances that he is dealing with in his own Government is sick and dictatorial.
But then again, others are seeing/sensing the same things – and have bothered to write it up.

9/11 Whistle blowers
This very informative Full Documentary by James Corbett interviews the Whistleblowers who sacrificed everything to make public the truth that occurred on that fateful day of 9/11/2001. This documentary is free to download copy and distribute. Available from https://www.corbettreport.com/911whistleblowers/
But I have uploaded the full documentary in full resolution as well to
https://yadi.sk/i/T9BuRYAMbjCgMg
Thanks Taras 77 for your past comments and it is worth a second mention. I agree, it is a very powerful and remarkable documentary.
I agree with Paul Craig Roberts that Israel almost certainly flew the drones into Saudi Arabia. This puts Israel squarely in the cross-hairs. The Satanic Powers That Be need another war and, if trading in one of their dearest assets to get it, well, it was bound to happen sooner or later.
The oceans have about doubled their heat content in just the last 10 years. This a huge move in global warming — and accelerating. TPTB know all about abrupt climate change, of course, and likely plan to adjust earth’s carrying capacity to meet future living arrangements … and without delay.
The oceans have sequestered 21 zettajoules (ten to the 21st power) of heat over the last 200 years. That GUARANTEES a climate destabilisation Holocaust that will last tens or hundreds of millennia. Of course the psychopathic ‘elites’ intend ensuring that billions of the Eternal Enemy, ‘other people’, will die, but they seem to think that they will, somehow, survive themselves. On a more or less lifeless planet-for millennia?
i agree mulga. but the so-called “e-lites” are really disconnected from Nature. this is why they are so much under the illusion that they can control it.
Sorry-the true figure is 150 zettajoules, not 21. At these levels it is really moot.
Mulga …
The latest ocean heat content number I have is ~25 x ten to 22 power joules. So we’re in the same neighborhood.
The discredited study mentioned elsewhere on this forum has little to do with us.
Mulga, these extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
It so happens that this study was wrong, and corrected study was already sent in to Nature.
Climate contrarian uncovers scientific error, upends major ocean warming study

Widely Reported Alarming Ocean Warming Study Is Wrong
https://reason.com/2018/11/14/widely-reported-ocean-warming-study-is-w/
So, can you give us any extraordinary evidence for this extraordinary statement?
Anyway, kids are beginning to commit suicide because they are so fearful of something that might happen in the future. Kids are beginning to get too scared to go to school. This is where the travesty is – the incessant fear mongering.
And what is most amazing is this : Petteri Taalas, the secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), disagrees with doomsday climate extremists who call for radical action to prevent a purported apocalypse.
And this fellow was one of the starter members of the IPCC and he is now saying, stop this cultish warming fearmongering.
He says: “Taalas said that establishment meteorological scientists are under increasing assault from radical climate alarmists, who are attempting to move the mainstream scientific community in a radical direction. He expressed specific concern with some of the solutions promoted by climate alarmists, including calls for couples to have no more children.”
and
““While climate skepticism has become less of an issue, we are being challenged from the other side. Climate experts have been attacked by these people and they claim that we should be much more radical. They are doomsters and extremists. They make threats.”
and
Taalas pointed out that climate extremists are selectively picking out facts from the IPCC reports to fit their narrative.
“The IPCC reports have been read in a similar way to the Bible: you try to find certain pieces or sections from which you try to justify your extreme views. This resembles religious extremism,” Taalas said.

This whole story is getting worse than certain evangelicals announcing the ‘end of the world’ every now and again saying that they’ve managed to figure out the timings for ‘the rapture’ from scripture. (I grew up with this but cannot remember when the last one was because I ignored it – about 10 years ago).
This whole story is getting worse than the Y2K programming bug. (We went sailing).
This whole story is getting worse than the 2012 doomsday because the Mayan calendar would come to an end. (We went visiting Chichen Itza).
Somebody, get Mulga’s glass half full!
Take a look at this very big list of “Predictions of apocalyptic events that would result in the extinction of humanity, a collapse of civilization, or the destruction of the planet have been made since at least the beginning of the Common Era.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events
Again, I am not saying that we are not messing up our planet and our known space something fierce.
adendum of fun; checking wiki (of all places) on planetary ‘ice ages’ five majors, going back 100s of millions of years………….and the funniest part, ‘the earth has been ice free in periods between ‘ice ages’ so we ain’t there yet….Boo!
The study which Mulga is referring to here is Gleckler, et.al. (2016). The links above refer to Resplandy, et.al. (2018). The Gleckler study provides some interesting results from oceanic temperature observations as well as mathematical modeling and correlations, thereof. There are no apocalyptic predictions here. However, the most disturbing result was that half of all the increase of ocean heat content since the start of the industrial revolution has occurred since 1997. The 150 zeta joule number is the increase from 1997. So the story is actually much worse. No idea what would be the environmental consequences of this but I don’t see how this can be anything good.
But the problem with studies is data input, and for research grants it’s kinda like surveys, make sure the inputs give the result you want or you don’t get paid. And to believe no one has ever made a data entry mistake or fudged a number here or there to further an agenda………….well, what’s to say…………mathimatical modeling……..correlations……..ok.
82 days into summer, four days before the start of Fall and we just had our first two nights of plus 20C. I’d say, turn off the screens, get out side, enjoy some nature, and live some life………….cause when the big guy calls, won’t matter who’s saving the planet, from what or whom.
Easy for you to say, being a leprechaun and all. The mischievous little folk are magical and likely not even bound by the laws of physics. Us pathetic humans are not so lucky.
Garbage. Science is pursued in pursuit of truth, not ‘grants’. In any case the pecuniary interests of the fossil fuel industry, that created the denialist cancer just as Big Tobacco created junk science around tobacco use, is literally several orders of magnitude greater than all the climate scientific grants on the planet.
That is behind a pay wall – are normal people not supposed to read it ;-) or is there a link?
Thanks David. We pretty much know what heating the oceans does, from previous ‘hothouse’ mass extinction events. Once the oceans warm enough, and the thermo-haline circulation breaks down, they will stagnate, de-oxgenate, and the anaerobes overgrow and belch hydrogen sulphide gas. I imagine the denialists will be denying EVERYTHING, right to the bitter end.
Rapid anthropogenic climate destabilisation is not an existential threat for the future-it is happening right now. No amount of reflex denialism of EVERYTHING can hide the facts of a relentless rise in global average temperatures, and average maxima and minima. No amount of denialism can refute the near absolute consensus of the global scientific community, save for ideological fanatics and those on the fossil fuel payroll. No amount of denialism can alter the fact that montane glaciers everywhere are rapidly disappearing, and that Arctic summer sea ice volume is in sharp, terminal, decline. No amount of denialism can alter the fact that this Arctic ‘albedo flip’ is responsible for the derangement of the jetstreams. No amount of denialism can alter the fact of rapidly spreading megafires, globally, including here in Austfailia where they are occurring in sub-tropical and even tropical rain-forests, an eventuality not known in recorded history, and in winter. Any children suffering from existential angst do so because they understands the truth, and the dreadful and bewildering fact that in the face of the greatest crisis in history (and but one aspect of the global ecological Holocaust)there are STILL people denying it all, and doing their best to ensure that nothing will be done to save humanity from self-destruction.
Drag the kids in? Children know the truth as that being pushed by adults? Or is there a special kids school for kids, programed by kids? In Austrailia? Out here in the colonies kids are taught by adults get their programing from adults, follow the adults choosen agenda. Pimp out the kids, ‘oh no, don’t have children (eugenics), cause they gonna fry, fry I tells ya!’
Mate we’re all gonna die, hot freaking world or not. Then a clense comes to the planet and it starts over. Boggles my tiny mind (go ahead, kick) that humans think they are the endall beall of the planet………….ROTFLMFAO!
It all depends WHEN and HOW you die. After a long and fruitful life, or prematurely and horribly because others refused to protect you and the living world. No wonder the children, and all rational, sane and life-loving people are getting very, very, agitated. We all know where this will end, and it won’t be by ‘..going QUIETLY into that good night’.
Nothing depends on how you die. When you die, you are dead, regardless of where you are or what you are doing. There is more to the planet, universe, than humans…………………humans who are so full of themselves and a humanity well past it`s `best before` date. But, eternal optimist that I am, I still have hope……………..in love.
Caitlin Johnstone’s take on the current ridiculous and tedious US theatrics in the ME…as usual she tells it like it is…this lady pulls no punches…enjoy!!
“Until then this is a whole lot of noise and very little signal, which is why I find this current circus uninteresting to write about. It seems like every week now the Trump administration is trotting out some new narrative with the help of the mass media explaining why the Iranian government is evil and must be toppled, and nobody buys it because it’s on the other side of the damn planet and it’s always about something silly like oil or broken drones. Their unappealing pestering about this is starting to remind me of a really awkward loser who’s constantly asking out the prettiest girl in the office over and over again; you just want to pull him aside and say dude, stop. She’s just not into you.”

“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare – White Helmets, “Bana al-Abed” And Killing “Evil Russians”
There has long been a play to the fascist/closet homosexual right in gaming. Games like call of duty are essentially psywar tools designed to reinforce the worst behaviours of the fascist-gay mentality. These are tools to get the adolescents ready for military service/brainwashing, much like rambo or red dawn films were before computer/video games.
Of course the video game players experience Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome once they get a taste of the 3D version of the video games that trained them.
And apparently Pre Traumatic Stress Disorder …as children…if you seek to limit….the “point and shoot” addictions that hook them neurologically ….in their own homes.
Speaking of films…..there’s part of America that is getting lot more clued in to why certain actors are selected for more advanced Clowns In America….political duties.
Politics is Downstream of Culture.
Ergo “take a deep dive” (but not in the stream, mind you…..) into who is pissing what kind of cultural poison into that stream………for what political purposes.
As NEW comment, shortly….featuring George Clooney.
Here’s where Israel Shamir….and the now departed Heroes of Donbass……Motorola…and Givi….were more than a little too naive …responding enthusiastically to a local or Russian reporter’s question about “Which actor…..would you love to see portray the story of your service to your people?”
I think it was Givi that answered enthusiastically……...giving the name of an American actor…..and while I enjoyed the informality of the banter with the reporter…and a more personal glimpse into the mind of such a person……….I distinctly recall that my reaction, my thought at the time, was far,far, more cautionary than the pleasure the reporter and the soldier shared in that lighter moment:
Great vulnerability, sensed I, on the flank of Cultural Warfare.
Not good. Necessary to close that flank off and address the blindness of those on sentry duty.
Russia & Iran to switch to SWIFT-free banking system
https://www.rt.com/business/469007-russia-iran-swift-alternative/
“Instead of SWIFT, a system that facilitates cross-border payments between 11,000 financial institutions in more than 200 countries worldwide, the two countries will use their own domestically developed financial messaging systems – Iran’s SEPAM and Russia’s SPFS.
Tehran is set to officially join the Russia-led free-trade zone, the EAEU, next month. The document on Iran’s participation was ratified in June by the nation’s parliament (Majlis) and President Hassan Rouhani has already ordered that the free trade zone agreement be implemented.
Last year, Belgium-based SWIFT cut off some Iranian banks from its messaging system. It came after US President Donald Trump abandoned the landmark nuclear deal with the Islamic Republic and resumed US sanctions against Tehran.”

Another zionazi-gay terrorist group eliminated. No doubt bibi’s boi toy in dc will be imposing more sanctions on Russia in retribution.
Now, this funny. Most participants in DC think tanks, developing foreign policy, have no knowledge at all about the country they are analyzing: https://www.rt.com/op-ed/468959-iran-experts-incompetent-washington/
“Imagine a field of study in which less than a third of the experts had related doctorates, half of them could not read, speak or write the language required, and just as many have never set foot inside the relevant country. Preposterous, you might say – yet scientific observation has shown that this is precisely what the US expertise on Iran looks like, according to an essay by political anthropologist Negar Razavi, recently published in the journal Jadaliyya.”
And their work will be presented by a 30-year old coffee boy of Jared Kushner without any foreign policy experience, who will be discussing it with real professionals like Javad Zarif and Sergei “Oh, you are representing the hemisphere” Lavrov.
Oh dear.
But wait, maybe I have a tempting hint for them to analyze. Iranian generals and commanders, when pictured, all seem to have a striking resemblance with Sean Connery.
Maybe every time it *is* Sean Connery, and the real commanders are still in their bunkers ;-)

The Saudis will present ‘material evidence’ of the use of Iranian missiles and drones, and the launching site in Iran, today: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/saudi-arabia-says-it-has-material-evidence-tying-iran-aramco-attack
So, we are to believe that these weapons flew all the way from Iran, over the Persian Gulf that is one of the most observated areas in the world and contains several US Military bases, all satellites were apparantly in Epstein mode, they stayed completely undetected, and are able when flying from the east to impact on the west by still mysterious mirroring forces.
I expect the evidence they have found is ‘Magic Unicorn Powder’, that makes this mysterious things possible and is known to have been developed secretely in Iran. Anonymous intelligence sources have discosed that it is extracted from the cloak of Harry Potter. It is collected in a small tube and will be presented by Colin Powell.
The main strategical mistake that might be making here, is to plan this so shortly after the remembrance of 9-11. Bad timing when we are supposed to believe this. And you now, military servicemen might have some brains too.
We’ll see ;-)
Cheers, Rob
The only evidence I can see is that there is a Saudi – US alliance attacking Yemen viciously, and of course the military response from Yemen have become more efficient and systematic and by the way in accordance with international law defending their country from foreign interference they may enter into Saudi Arabia since
International law support entering into the country of origin of those that carries out attacks or serve as a base for such attacks, so I dont see these attacks on Saudi Arabia as illegal.
The attack on Saudi oil facilities can also be a reciprocal effect to Saudi attack on civilian infrastructure in Yemen which takes place daily.
I think though that the Saudi – US alliance on Yemeni civilians are far more serious, that is war crimes and genocide that is taking place and need to be addressed urgently .
I think that in international law whatever political entity the Saudi – US alliance mange to put in power in Yemen are in violation of international law and serves as war crimes that will have to be addressed in the long run as well . There is no such thing as war for democracy it is a false entity that should also be addressed by the UN to establish a framework for dealing with foreign intervention as the security council is not sufficient. In fact it is a threat to world peace the very basis for sanctions and military intervention by the UN.
If Russia has any evidence drones etc were not launched from Iran now would be a good time to bring it forward…….
Well guys and girls (or men and women or its and they’s – heaven knows – we’re being differently sexed as we speak… ), it is a busy week.
Netanyahu is losing it .. and trying to pull together a coalition with smaller parties. Seemingly with election results still early, he refused to bow out, and he is fighting – but there will be a coalition anyway as nobody has enough to be in the lead.
Saudi says Iran dunit! Its for sure, Iran is guilty (yeah, and I guess Kashoggi by sheer accident walked into a chain saw). Trump increases sanctions on Iran (what is left to sanction?) while the rest of the US crowd are chanting war war war.
Pakistan has just refused overflight for Mr Modi from India to fly over to somewhere else. This is kinda bad news.
I hope the Saker has some analysis for us soon — This blue marble is threatening to explode!
Remember the analysis just a week or two ago – kidnapping as a tool of imperial statecraft?
And The Saker said for the foreseeable future, we can expect more of this kidnapping business which is really hostage taking.
Just guess, Trump’s new security advisor was Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs at the State Department. So, I guess The Saker was right (tongue in cheek), must be much more hostage taking to come.
Watching the Saudi spokesperson play victim on Crosstalk today was a ” hoot “as they say in Tennessee–only the Israelis do it better.

Someone more qualified than I……did my work for me!
They wrote a short e-book….”A Short History of Bitcoin Myths” I read in its entirety..waiting for a flight!
Now if you think this has NOTHING to do with everything else we discuss here…..think again!
I will dish this out in short segments of only 8 chapters to give time for y’all to interact, on The Installment Plan:
Installment # 1…Chapter # 1
Bitcoin 0.1 – The Genesis of Bitcoin
The Bitcoin whitepaper defines the most well-known and first groundbreaking application of blockchain technology as “A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System…
A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.”
Sounds very dull to a non-techy like me, but wait until you understand how it relates to the socio-economic context of its (and our) time!
Bitcoin as Response to the Manipulation of Financial Systems
On organisational, national and international levels, financial accounting systems are non-transparent and almost impossible to audit with absolute accuracy. In practice, it means that those we entrust with financial record-keeping have plenty of opportunity to enrich themselves at the cost of society.
In recent history, we’ve seen criminal organisations and political groups operate from within the banking system through off-shore channels to fund undemocratic interventions, criminal activities, terrorism and laundering the profits of their illegal businesses.
The 2008 financial crisis was another example of how relatively easy it is to manipulate banking systems for criminal gain at the cost of national welfare.
The crash, in summary, was caused by a number of ‘bad apples’ spread throughout the echelons of major investment and commercial banks across the world. This network of fraudsters set up a scheme that employed predatory lending methods to pump the housing market then glamming up the resulting junk bonds (with the help of reputable credit rating agencies) to sell them on as low-risk securities. The derivatives trading scheme they concocted was so intricate that it bamboozled all but a few.”
NOW, before going any further……..Check out the film …………The Big Short…which does show HOW the scam was concocted……..but as I watched the credits roll at film’s end…………..basically stating in the fine, rolling print…..that even worse, but not in identical form…………was again in process……….So Don’t Count On Movies To Solve A Goddamned Thing….Cinema Suckers….maybe a few clues, but certainly No Blueprint for Victory!

The Big Short (2015) – Jared Vennett’s Pitch to Front Point Partners (Jenga Blocks Scene)
Jared explains Mortgage Backed Derivatives as “dogshit”
And then explains collateralized debt obligations …CDOs. One of the meetings attendees observes:
“So you’re saying CDOs are dog shit……..wrapped in cat shit?”
The blocks in his demonstration are the ones you know……….if you ever played with them. They are not the blocks of the Immutable Time Chain Ledger that CAN put a stop to the precarious block building Jared uses as financial pedagogy………….
Just to clear up any nominalist errors that might be in the formation stage…………..
Mark Baum is the lead guy at Front Point Partners. He wants to believe Jared, but can’t without finding out more.
You can’t find out in a glass tower on Wall Street. SO…the FPP guys head down to Florida….forst to talk to some mortgage brokers:
https://youtu.be/Mfu_iFS-UY8 2 min 22 sec
“I don’t get it.”, says Mark. “Why are these guys confessing to us?”
One of Jared’s guys answers: “They’re not confessing……they’re bragging.”
One of the smirking young loan brokers mentions that him and his sleazy lender buddies….. all have strippers who have bought homes, condos through their mortgage brokering “services”.
Mark asks, “Really? Can you put me in touch with one of them?”
The sleezy dude falls all over himself grinning lecherously…..not realizing Mike is doing serious field work…..and is not interested in going to where the borrower/real estate investor/pole dancer works for the same reasons other guys go there.
That’s next if I can find it..(again)…and is the best example I can think of to illustrate why “desk jockeys”………. …….are well advised…get out from behind their desks in their glass towers…..and get out into “the field”….ie the real world………on regular intervals.
What he finds out from the startled mouth of a pole dancer stripper…..startles him even more than he startled her:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZTFNizSNGs
Ashen-faced, Mark leaves the club…calls on his cell phone..as he walks to his rented car…. and tells one of his Front Point Partners…..the Gestalt that it took talking to a stripper…for reality to finally sink in to his Glass Tower Financial Brain: “It’s a Bubble!”
The stripper doesn’t have just one condo she lives in with an adjustable rate mortgage whose payment can double or triple when the introductory rate expires………….she’s got 4 or 5 more of them.
It’s a good story!
But based on a real one.
And yes, California was almost as bad…2005, 2006, 2007.
The area east of the LA basin…Western San Bernardino and Riverside Counties is called “The Inland Empire” because that’s where the land for expansion of housing tracts and distribution centers…the growth potential is.
Entire tracts of hundreds of homes sold in 2005,2006 and even early 2007 ended up collapsing in value…dropping like a rock by 2008, 2009, 2010 …vacant and with brown lawns in a majority of the homes…and only leveled off @ 2011. And pretty much stayed down….below 2003 even….until 2015-2016.
My favorite memory of reading the financial press at the time was from a real estate writer for the Los Angeles Times…who wryly observed in 2009 that the Southern California real estate market had created TWO…..new oxymorons in the English Language:
Oxymoron #1: “Real Estate Expert”
Oxymoron # 2: “Inland Empire”
Guess where I surmised he had bought a tract home or two in 2005…2006??? LOL.

The previous five mass extinctions have been characterized by elevated CO2 and loss of ice.
A brief summary of our future is featured in the following interview:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqIt93dDG1M&t=42s
@Phil Thanks! I’m a Guy McPherson fan. Guy, Mulga Mumblebrain and I, and possibly you would get along fine.
The data from so many different scientific sources that Guy McPherson has presented though the years is awesome. The point he has often made is that the “scientific” community tends to specialize on their own data and ignores the data of other specialties that point to the mass extinction event we are already in. McPherson has connected the dots of numerous (endless) scientific studies to grasp the “big picture”. McPherson used to give workshops presenting the endless data already available from so many recognized sources around the world.
A few years ago, he realized that few could handle the truth about the probable extinction event without the grief process, so his talks are now primarily for people who understand the data, the dismal probabilities, and who need help facing the collapse they soon will be experiencing.
His bottom line is that nothing is gained by getting depressed and hope is a form of impotent denial. Enjoy the time we have left, learn to extend love in a wider area, learn to be useful in a way to help each other in what is certainly coming. Get out of the cities. Get off the sofa and work on fitness. Life will get harder. The southern hemisphere may last a little longer than the northern. Right now there is not the ongoing consequences of Fukashima in that hemisphere.
As an aside about fitness, I’m 82, and not on any medications. I do six 20 second sprints with a two minute walk off between sprints, once a week. I met an 82 year old Medical Doctor a few months ago at a convenience store coffee urn. He was coming from the local gym after working out and doing some miles on an exercise bike. He inspired me to join the gym, which I did. Today, at the gym, I met a 60 year old woman who is training for a bikini contest. So I’ve added two miles on the treadmill, another mile on an exercise bike, and then a round on the strength machines….in addition to my weekly sprint. The 60 year old woman said her children are in there 30th and are physical wrecks. She hope to inspire them. It is so easy to get soft and sick reading blog opinions.
The best to you!
Tim Flannery whose has been a leading light in the paltry efforts to alert the Great Austrayan Mediocrity to the existential dangers of anthropogenic climate destabilisation, has admitted that he has wasted twenty years of effort. A report issued this week predicts massive ecological carnage in Austfailia in the next few decades, beginning with the imminent death of the Great Barrier Reef (already 33% dead and with coral recruitment (new colonies) down by 89%)and the inland rivers, which are drying up rapidly. Flannery spent years alternatively predicting imminent disaster, that did not materialise, giving ammo to the fanatic denialist cabal, centred on the Murdoch cancer. His predictions are coming true, now, a few years delayed, but he still peddles false hopes in the face of a triumphant Right and a public so stupid, ignorant, greedy and contemptuous of their own children’s fate as to defy belief. The public is now, apparently, frightened by climate change, but they don’t know what fear and horror really means. They’ll soon know, unfortunately.
The idea that CO2 rises follow warming, and does not precipitate it, is a very old, and long ago totally debunked, denialist trope, but what’s better than nostalgia for old errors? CO2 rises after warming at the end of glaciations, following various positive feed-backs, and accelerates the warming. At the end of interglacials, when glaciation is driven by the Milankovitch cycles and, possibly, any decrease in solar radiance, similar positive feed-backs, such as increasing albedo as ice-fields spread, drive the opposite process.
Today, in contrast, the natural glaciation is still some millennia off, judging by previous examples. The rise in atmospheric CO2 levels, from 280 ppm at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution to today’s 415 ppm (and 490 ppm CO2 equivalent taking into account other greenhouse gases like methane)is driving the warming, and setting off numerous positive feed-backs to more warming. The increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is known as a ‘forcing’, and this one is the greatest and most rapid we know of for hundreds of millions of years. Such greenhouse gas forcings have led to four of the previous five great mass extinction events in planetary history, through ‘hothouse Earth’ conditions, so the science tells us we are rooted. It’s that simple. Horrible, but simple.

DId you read it? Would you recommend that Herb put it on the Recommended Reading List?
A quick search moving the slider to the right (I didn’t try the mouse scroll wheel, because my laptop doesn’t have one..)…..indicates it may take an esoteric angle of attack against The Empire…what with the image of a snake swallowing the globe.
On the other hand, our astrologer from Murnau may shed further light on the Scorpio bit…..

Now there’s a metaphor for the Strategic Situation!
Bro … I have read “The Sign of The Scorpion” and re-read parts which interest me, thus recommend this book to the recommended reading list.
Bro, when I requested a book review from you, I meant my book’s review at “Saker Communities”.
Dennis Leary impressed me by understanding everything in “Raising Stone 1” and while I was urging his conversation in the Cafe about Ezekiel, he “took off” on a number of tangents and we lost him to “outer space” … disappointing because I really wanted Cafe folk to hear his conclusions.
Now, I did target Dennis with a free book because of his professional religious affiliations and to this day he calls me “a partial supporter” and be assured he is with us, reading everything … hi Dennis ! … Brother Nathanael does not communicate other than “thx” (we know who he works for now) and a big “Hoo-Roo” to you from Australia.
Bro, maybe you have Ezekiel Chapter 1 worked out to your satisfaction … it is the essential proof, the documented evidence … and for an event 4600 years ago there is not likely to be anything more, so well documented. You used the word “meticulous”, which I had not thought of … appropriate.
Would also appreciate your comments at Pravda, also can “share” at Pravda.

Bro … Pharaoh did have a raised portable bed with him/her for sleep outs.
Around the bed was placed a thick coarse weave prickly hemp rope as a barrier to scorpions and snakes.
The Egyptian cartouche depicts this rope which thus surrounds with supreme security … and only a Pharaonic name was allowed to be written within a cartouche.

This is not recent. I remember his ‘running mate’ discussion with Paul Ryan, and that was in 2012. There he claimed that Syria was 5 times as large as Lybia, and was smiling so intensely that I got the feeling that I was looking at The Joker.
And such dudes take decisions that affect us all.

Extensive article.
Intro:
“Western civilization, without any doubt, is in the state of general spiritual, moral, ideological and cultural decay. Not so long ago, what we called the “West” was the most prosperous civilization of all ages. Today, Western civilization can be defined as a geopolitical and cultural space that is absolutely dominated by the United States – or, more precisely, by the corrupt, completely alienated even from the citizens of their own nations, business, financial and political elite, known as the “American Deep State”. American subjugated allies, foreign partners and other states that are mostly against their own will, heavily influenced by the United States, do not have enough strength to withstand the growing number of dictates, pressure and extortion by the United States, despite the fact that the interests of the American elite and nations subordinated to them, are very different and quite often, diametrically opposite. Not only that, but the interests of the American citizens themselves, also sharply contrast with the interests of the American deep state. American democratic traditions were once a shining example for the rest of humanity. Today, however, American democracy is reduced to the level of media spectacle – a glamorous and dazzling show deprived of basic essence. Almost imperceptibely, American democracy has become a hostage to the interests of a few and no longer serves the People, and as a result, all segments of the American as well as societies of nations that are de facto controlled from Washington, are deformed. This process has been going on for decades, but in recent years it has been accelerating. The speed with which not only American, but all other Western societies are moving beyond recognition, is deeply disturbing.”

The Ukraine was scheduled to sign off the Steenmeir Agreement which had been approved and accepted by Normandy 4 to grant special status and local elections for Donbass..
Giess what….
The Ukraine party refused to sign..Normandy 4 meeting planned to kinda celebrate in a way progress cancelled as Lavrov or Peskov said pointless to have yet another meeting about another meeting. So despite Macron urging the Z to move ” peacewards” so to speak and agreements ready to withdraw from contact line….OSCE to monitor elections perhaps…some direct phonecalls between Z and Putin….everything is back to reality where everything is exactly the same…eg Trump did agree the 250 m $ to go to The Ukraine after all. Should we have expected any different? Will The Ukraine recieve their winter gas as Putin has said we are kinda one peoples?Sighs.
A Short History of Bitcoin Myths….continuation of Chapter One
AND my effort to relate Brad Pitt (a Good Guy….in the Big Short…but in Real Life????) to George Clooney (who should probably be renamed George Clowney……..as in C.I.A…..Clowns In America) in particular……….in regard to Clown Prince Obama’s publicly stated allegiance to The Queen (“We are your faithful servants, your Majesty!”) in regard to The Anglo Zionist’s Empire’s ….Plan to Dismember SYRIA……
“………..When the scheme finally crashed, the US government bailed out the banks and let the economy take the fall instead. Hard working, honest citizens paying the price of corporate greed and corruption.
At the end of the same year, Satoshi published the Bitcoin Whitepaper, and in January of 2009, Bitcoin’s Genesis block included this line of text along with the transaction data:
“The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks.”
Although the Bitcoin project is said to not be a direct response to the 2008 financial crisis, the scenario is a repeat on the theme:
As long as accounting systems and ledgers remain obscure, easy to manipulate and difficult to audit, shady characters will be drawn to the opportunity.Experiments have suggested that the placement of additional lighting or CCTV camera equipment in public spaces could reduce criminal activity merely through its presence. Could the same results hold if a light is shone on accounting ledgers and a permanent recording is made?
Bitcoin’s Philosophy – Transparency and Accountability
Nakamoto Tominaga was a merchant and philosopher that wrote during the Tokugawa period of Japan and taught that “concealment is the beginning of the habit of lying and stealing.”
Craig S Wright, the person behind the Satoshi Nakamoto moniker, explains what it was about this Japanese philosopher that inspired him to create Bitcoin:
“He was an anti-traditionalist, a logician, and an early capitalist in the days of mercantilism. He once said, ‘our age today is one of corruption by liars and robbers. We remain in such an age. Money has been corrupted. We create synthetic systems of synthetic systems designed with nothing more than a goal to move numbers between systems. Money from Main Street to Wall Street and away from where it’s needed.”

Someone’s stomach is churning….and we need to help calm the Pitt of her stomach.
So we leave Pretty Boy Brad …and get back to Pretty Boy George….
I recall watching Clowney’s first movie………..SYRIANA…..I am positive this was before Benghazi, before Flynn objected to what was going on. There was almost a certain sympathy in the movie for the two young Arab friends who sought “martyrdom” for their land (where I was born) having its oil sucked away by “Murica” in huge oil tankers and their Islamic faith humiliated….
“Interesting!”, I thought, early in the film. The youths approach a fully loaded tanker with their speed boat full of explosives………..and DO martyr themselves, blow the speed boat and themselves up….collapse the side of the tanker…and presumably sink it.
But as the movie proceeded and ended……it was clear Clowney offered NOTHING by way of programmatic resolution of anything. Here’s WHY:
https://tiffanyfitzhenry.com/deep-dives/behind-the-illusion-george-clooney/
“There are 276 Global Intelligence files that mention George Clooney by name. You know, George Clooney, the Hollywood actor.
There are 1,507 Sony emails and documents that mention George Clooney by name. But that’s to be expected, right? I mean Sony at least pretends to be an entertainment company (spoiler, that’s not what they are at all).
There are also 98 DNC emails that mention Clooney, and 26 Podesta emails, which is noteworthy and interesting as well. To say nothing of all the State Department emails revolving around the Oscar winner. But I’m most interested in the fact that there are 276 Global Intelligence files about the dude that starred in Ocean’s 11. To me, that’s more than curious – it’s a glitch in the Matrix. A little rip in the carefully stitched fabric of the illusion. A rip, which I’m about to tear into a gravity swallowing black hole.
What Are The Global Intelligence Files…”
And tear the little rip into the carefully stitched fabric of the illusion ….into a gravity swallowing black hole.she most certainly does!
I wouldn’t describe Jeffie Boy as “pretty”…..he actually looks pretty ……hideous. But remember…..The Keystone of Control for the Demons of Empire is Human Compromise….and Many, like Pretty Boy George are eager to get sucked into That Empire Pitt……literally:
“When his less than flattering association with the bombshell Epstein scandal was exposed that’s what tipped the scales for me in favor of doing a full deep dive expose on the two time Oscar winner.
You see, I could spend literally all my time, researching, piecing together, and detailing for you every single Hollywood celebrity’s ties to the underbelly of a world you were never supposed to know existed.”
, writes Tiffany.

At least Pitt….when asked his opinion on Tibet….replied with a sheepish shrug, “Why are you asking ME?? I’m just an actor…”.
George on the other hand………was deployed by Clowns In America…..for the task of dismembering Syria…..with not so subtle mind control narratives…of the Film SYRIANA…(many moves are telegraphed in advance…through “culture”…which politics is “downstream of”….remember???)…..while his pretty boy looks seduce the victim’s of the narratives…by coaxing them to identify with outer “beauty” masking Spiritual Ugliness and Empire Depravity of a Globally Significant Nature.

Intended to finish Chapter One……..A Short History of The Myths of Bitcoin…..but fell short a few paragraphs…..
So, here’s the end of the first chapter of the E-book:
“Traditional financial systems that rely on the integrity of third-party verification and covert ledgers are a lure for those who itch to get their hands in the cookie jar.
With Bitcoin’s birth, organisations had a better option for the first time: an immutable ledger system that provides a transaction infrastructure that is easy to audit and impossible to manipulate.
“Bitcoin is sunshine. It is the cure for the festering wound that is corruption, be that from government or from criminal groups.” Dr Craig S Wright on Medium”
ASIDE: He does NOT mean the “bitcoin” most people think is THE Bitcoin…ie BTC. He means as originally designed…by him…..and nearly restored to Original Genisis Protocol…..scheduled for completion in early 2020.
continuing to End of Ch 1:
“Where traditional financial corporations generally exclude the neediest, extort the vulnerable, and abuse their power to censor, Bitcoin’s distributed natureprevents any individual or agency from accumulating enough power to rule the roost.
From the ashes (Satoshi) of the traditional financial system, rose an immutable evidence system to operate (for a start) as a backbone for digital cash: Bitcoin.
NOW FOR THE TECHNICAL PART:
The Design of the Bitcoin Blockchain
Although several other projects had been experimenting with the concept of digital cash, Bitcoin was the first to figure out how to overcome a complex problem: Doublespending!
Double-spending Solved
If you think about electronic communications, like email or text messages that are sent from one party to another without the involvement of any central verifying body (peerto-peer), there’s no way to know for sure how many copies of the same data have been created or distributed.
The situation is all good and well if I’m sending you a newsletter by email, but it just would not work if I tried to sell you a one-of-a-kind document, like an original and uncopied digital artwork, or a property deed.
Should I decide to involve a central party to record, verify and update transaction records via their in-house ledger, I’d have to trust in their integrity. I’d have to trust that they won’t be bribed. I’d have to trust that they won’t sell duplicates as a side business.
A Short History of Bitcoin Myths 10
1 | Bitcoin 0.1 – The Genesis of Bitcoin
The moment you involve that trusted central party, you’re back to the dilemma of having nothing more than the word of an organisation run by fallible people, promising that deals being made and recorded in their ledger system is above board.
To pull off a peer-to-peer communications network that transfers sole rights like the ownership of a coin without a third-party, you need a mechanism to ensure that the data in question hadn’t been spent or sent somewhere else already.
Satoshi Nakamoto solved the riddle by introducing the concept of a distributed network of actors, miners (or supercomputers) who would verify transactions in chronological order and record the results in an immutable and publically accessible ledger; the blockchain.
Once a data transaction has been processed, the ownership rights are transferred to the receiver who is now the only party who can submit a request to transfer the ownership of the same piece of data to a new owner.
Ownership rights are recorded in a time-stamped ledger that is impossible to undo or manipulate without getting caught. To incentivise miners to act in their role of verifying transactions and securing the network, Satoshi introduced a block reward (a bitcoin prize) for the first of the network miners to successfully solve its Proof-of-Work algorithm. Transaction fees, while negligible for the sender, also get added to the prize pool.
Double spending problem solved!
Network Stability and Security
As network activity increases, so does the total value of the miner reward (set block reward + increased sum of transaction fees) making it more lucrative for new people to use their supercomputers to compete for the prize. As the number of miners grows, the computing power does as well. This boosts the network’s security, but also the potential processing power and speed of operations.
This bit is essential, and you’ll want it to keep it in mind further down the line:
The moment you split the blockchain into various competing blockchain systems, they’re all competing for a limited volume of transactions. As the (globally available) volume is insufficient to sustain them all only one can survive, or they’ll all be competing for a limited volume of transactions. As the (globally available)
volume is insufficient to sustain them all only one can survive, or they’ll all collapse.”

END of Chapter One
The Wright Rubric of “Only ONE” of course is appalling to those “Many” competing projects including some ones that purport to bridge between many others …that are incompatible with each other!
One might debate that rubric…except when you consider the wider Satoshi’s Vision…which contains the stunning prediction for the transformation of the existing Protocol for the Internet……..which is now connecting this Café Discussion of Multiple Related Topics:
“The Internet of the Future (“The Metanet”) will be a sidechain of Bitcoin.” SV, that is.
Now I would NOT stake my life on that happening, or being 100% desirable either………..because I’m just trying to learn more, at this point.
However…..one principle contained in that “Metanet Side Chain of Bitcoin” formulation is otherwise pretty self evident:
This that I am posting to and much of the world has access to connect via…”the Internet”……would not…COULD not work if there were hundreds…or even dozens of Internet 1.0……2.0…..or any other Point “O”.
That much IS clear.
Bro, I have no worries about most of what you’re pulling out of this e-book. But you will do yourself a great favor reading Andreas Antonoupolis – Mastering Bitcoin – This was written before the various chainsplits and in the time when we had Bitcoin and nothing else. The basics are clear there and also, the philosophy is as original.
I have an ebook of that should you want it – just let me know – any ebook reader will work. I am reading it now again for a specific reason.
This piece I have a problem with and I’ll tell you why:
“This bit is essential, and you’ll want it to keep it in mind further down the line:
The moment you split the blockchain into various competing blockchain systems, they’re all competing for a limited volume of transactions. As the (globally available) volume is insufficient to sustain them all only one can survive, or they’ll all be competing for a limited volume of transactions. As the (globally available)
volume is insufficient to sustain them all only one can survive, or they’ll all collapse.”
Let me give you the old example of Henry Ford: ” Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black.”
So, we all can laugh about that nowadays.
Then let me give you a modern example of something that we all use daily – a webbrowser. From the history of web browsers in the wikipedia (it is correct there mostly) …
“Precursors to the web browser emerged in the form of hyperlinked applications during the mid and late 1980s, and following these, Tim Berners-Lee is credited with developing in 1990 both the first web server, and the first web browser, called WorldWideWeb (no spaces) and later renamed Nexus.[2] Many others were soon developed, with Marc Andreessen’s 1993 Mosaic (later Netscape),[3] being particularly easy to use and install, and often credited with sparking the internet boom of the 1990s.”
Ok, I was very early on in the internet sphere and lived through all the bubbles up to now. When we started working with Mosaic (Netscape) in the early years, none of us could even think that there would be a better thing .. it was just too cool for school and our IT company developed a backend database that pushed content to the webpage – major stuff at the time – now, people cannot think that there was a time when this did not exist. We had no tools and developed (hacked in our language) web pages with an old Unix editor, until we developed editors. Now, we have many web browsers, browsers themselves are applications, editors and languages up the yahoo and the whole website thing can be done automatically. We’re talking more or less 30 years worth of development only and it has not stopped. Can you imagine the speed.
I say let the chains compete – talking about proof of work chains only – We know there are others. With each split, another 21 Million coins are created. I don’t think the market is saturated at all. Also for proof of work, it was designed like that, so that chains could fork, (Again I have to give you the example of Linux) and in these days, this is how software works. People have and want choice.
Somehow you’ve chosen to go to a corner of this whole cryptocurrency development – I am still daily trying to get an overview of the whole room.
There actually is a development that has made me really keen to pick up coding again. I am hooked by a concept right now, and I’m going to do it with my own flying fingers. Even computers, there is not only one – we stand at the brink of a massive development with quantum computing. Use your head and thinking with this concept …
Here is another quick example. In the early years +- 10 years ago, I mined – first CPU mining and then we went to using our graphics cards for more oomph .. now, all mining is done with highly sophisticated and dedicated machines, new chips, all new hardware designed to do one job only, and do it extremely well. Of course, there is not only one supplier here and all this in less than 10years.
There Can Be Only One is never true in technology, only in the movies.
“Facts” nowadays are to be redesigned to what the empire can make people believe according to the US administration under Barack Obama. CIA was originally publishing this idea as an operational analysis they would run at that time actually following their coup d’etat in Ukraine where they could not contain the truth of their coup or their war on the russian population particularily in Eastern Ukraine (Donbass) .
CIA (actually the deep state) believed that social media can be used to fabricate a “democratic fact” – what they meant was probably by producing more than 50 percent of tweets and engineered retweets and news on social media they could engineer a false reality they claim are facts. They use their own algoritm or tech engines to produce the results. It is however totally false in every sense, but becomes then the facts that the politcal elite run on within their empire, make sanctions, wars and so on.
Many people for example won’t believe the true nature of White Helmets as a false propaganda outfit to run against the government of Syria which they invaded under a rather large international operation led by Hillary Clinton or the Obama administration and included engineering an exile government (the Doha Conference) that their networked countries recognized (false legitimation). Initial arming of the group (military wing called Army of conquest North, south) was mainly through UK and USA (uncovered under US disclosure of terrorist financing ). Libya played a central role in training the forces of al Qaeda (IS) and for arms transfers. Cia was running operations with these forces and Benghazi became a hotspot of al Qaeda (IS) activities in Libya . In Egypt pres. Morsi (Muslim Brotherhood) was involved in operations to safeguard operations by killing the american ambassador to Libya who probably was opposed to CIA operations. Pres. Morsi was a close ally of Hillary Clinton and Pres. Obama’s administration who has come under fire for not assisting in security during the ambassador’s visit to Benghazi. In fact demanding that CIA locally had to provide security. Later the state department (and Hillary Clinton personally) refused military assitance when the ambassador’s compound came under attack. Continuing via Turkey and Iraq IS collected huge US army depots and ran these into Syria which was the main basis of territorial occupation for the US led operation. Training of IS were later conducted at Incirlik (NATO) base in Turkey and in Jordan. IS was a rebranding of al Qaeda in Iraq into a new fighting force for occupation of Syria mainly but they have been used against Yemen, Egypt, Libya, Afghanistan as well, and as terrorists against the western population.
Now a White Helmet underground facility for chemical weapons operations has been uncovered by the Syrian Army.

Now Pres. el-Sisi of Egypt comment on Syrian occupation by terrorists
What happened in Syria was planned by terrorist organizations
My response, and it works quite well, (well after the debate is over), is, you are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts.

Climate change or not, it’s not my personal concern at this age.If I’d be younger with many years would be different of course, so I let the little Greta to pursue her career in this sector, she and her generation have more headaches to face. I had my own generation headaches too with other pleasant and unpleasant things we faced at that time while now I have the concerns of aging, which, somehow, looks like a pretty stupid path for a soul without age, never mind you have to face it wittingly or not. What counts at all, is the evolution of your spirit in dealing with love, while climate is nature dealing with your body. Can you save your body from death ? Whatever the humans are doing against nature, the former has its laws, its ways to cure itself, even if it has to “liberate” herself from the large majority of humans. The infection must be cured and mother nature has the proper medicine as she done it who knows how many times in the past few million years. This is what many politicians can’t get it, the power and the stage blinds people, stupidity makes them believe they are smart. And, above all, the Earth is not the centre of the Universe, I don’t know what makes people believe this at all, knowing that out there is the infinite…or does somebody have knowledge where is the end of the Universe ?
I have it on fairly good authority that the Universe is “A Bounded Infinite”…..but please don’t ask me to explain!
Perhaps a mathematician or physicist among us could?
Sounds like an intriguing …….contradiction.
The explanation struck me as elegant…for a few seconds…….and then promptly eluded my comprehension.
But I as well have fears of anthropomorphic climate change..in terms of warming…….way, way down on my list of priorities to be concerned about. And in terms of cooling……..just a little higher on my list of thinking ahead at what future generations might face:
If there were another Ice Age approaching……could our efforts to warm things up a bit in the northern latitudes keep ice sheets from covering Toronto, Detroit, Manhattan…..Moscow…or would our efforts be too feeble…and would many urban areas in high latitudes have to be abandoned to the ice sheets hundreds of meters thick….even a mile thick….that probably will return…in a few dozen….thousand years….at any rate??
