I’ve slept for 24 hours straight and still have the energy level of a slug, so no post today. Food, virus? I don’t know.

    @ Afewknowthetruth

    People try to leave a bad place and try to go towards something better.’

    I tried that 50 years ago.

    I figured that my forefathers have been doing that for 10 generation.

    What are military embedded systems?

    Advanced military embedded systems are used in a variety of applications including intelligence, aerospace and avionics systems, and embedded vision systems. Multispectral imaging in the surveillance applications used in drones and aircraft is the most significant embedded vision application.

    Canada got rid of some junk. Yes! CBC reports today – Feb. 25th – that these two tanks ( Leopard 2A4 main battle tanks), are now in Ukraine proper.

    Raul – get better soon but don’t feel you need to rush back too quickly. And yes there is a Debt Rattle today!

    Dr. D – I concur with your life’s experiences. They have been lying to us forever. That is why I can no longer believe anything they say now. Instead I now focus on just living my life the best I can.

    AFKTT – You haven’t done too badly! All of my ancestors left sunny England in hopes of a better life. Almost none left of their own free will though. More like pushed – one way tickets.

    Bridget Bishop’s journey didn’t end very well as she was the first Salem witch hung in 1692. The surviving Bishops fled north from the states n 1776 to Upper Canada as (misguided?) Empire Loyalists. Another ancestor got replaced by sheep. Another married a miller’s daughter, below his class. Another was on the losing side of an Irish clan war. The last, escaping in the dead of night in 1896, was scheduled to be put to work on a factory grinding wheel, a black lung death sentence (can trace lines back to early 1600). So I am mostly English with a trace of Irish for good measure.

    On my Wife’s side, in the 1890s, a German stoled away on an ocean ship to Canada to avoid having to serve in the army. A Welch left in 1920s to escape a bad marriage. A Scotish young woman left in 1920s to Canada to find work. My Wife is 1/2 German, 1/4 Welch, and 1/4 Scotish – what a crazy combination!

    Etienne de la Boetie²: We Are Ruled By Inter-Generational Organized Crime

    Etienne de la Boetie² explains how we are ruled by inter-generational organized criminal networks. He views government as a technique to rob and control populations and statism as a religion. He further discusses our rule by oligarchy, how media is controlled, and how Amazon is “A Mason”. He touches on solutions and how to unplug from the government scam.

    sequestered carbon in Ukraine

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body
    Composition of the human body
    The average 70 kg (150 lb) adult human body contains approximately 7×1027 atoms and contains at least detectable traces of 60 chemical elements.[6] About 29 of these elements are thought to play an active positive role in life and health in humans.[7]

    The relative amounts of each element vary by individual, mainly due to differences in the proportion of fat, muscle and bone in their body. Persons with more fat will have a higher proportion of carbon and a lower proportion of most other elements (the proportion of hydrogen will be about the same). The numbers in the table are averages of different numbers reported by different references.
    Carbon mass 13kg

    “When human composting transforms the organic material of our bodies, carbon is also sequestered in the soil created. Rather than being released as carbon dioxide gas through exhaust during a cremation, the carbon matter contained in each body returns to the earth.”

    I’d forgotten to post that for WES. It’s been a pleasure.

    Oddly enough, I actually did find a good man here at TAE. Just this morning. Get that many dogs together in one room and there’s bound to be a son of a bitch on there somewhere. I’m still amazed and all aglow with it.

    I like that she has been able to change her views, based n new information and life experience. She entered the military believing the lies, and clearly, by her actions, realized the lies, and is working against them.

    But she hasn’t changed her views, she is claiming that Zelensky is pulling the USA into the Ukraine war. How is that changing her views? She still sees the USA as the innocent party and the nex-cons as victims. Why is she not shouting out about how the US is again starting and funding wars in far off lands? How the US military is the weapon being used to batter the rest of humainity. You then claim that she is lying because her audience would not accept the truth. That is one weak argument. I do not trust her because her messaging varies so much that I can see she is an actor, not a believer.

    The Russia-Ukraine Military Imbalance
    EUROPE
    by
    Martin Armstrong,

    Jan 26, 2022
    The fact that Russia has a larger military than Ukraine will hardly come as a surprise to most, but the extent to which the smaller nation is outnumbered in virtually every area may not be immediately clear. GlobalFirepower has assessed the military forces of both countries for 2022, and as this infographic shows, Russia has everything in its favor on paper, and without the support of Ukraine’s allies, in practice surely, too.

    Whether Russian President Putin makes the decision to invade the country again, and on a far larger scale, remains to be seen. What we do know however, is that there is a new and significant military build up on the Russian side of the border, diplomatic efforts have failed, and the West is currently focusing on projecting solidarity and threatening dire (economic, at least) consequences should an invasion occur.

    ————
    And that disparity shows in almost every possible comparison.

    She takes a stand against war. The accepted fiction is that Zelensky is the Ukrainian head of state, “Leader”, though we all know that it is a role he plays.
    Tulsi makes the one point that the US should back off from war.

    The other points, which we see as facts regarding the “hegemonic” role played by the US, which is fading, also assume that the elected “representatives” in the US are “leaders” and “make decisions”.
    Indeed, they do in some things, but they are also puppets, right?
    Who are the “owners” that make decisions and give orders? They don’t like to be knnown.

    It is very difficult and arguably self defeating to attempt to tell the entire truth in politics, and this is politics.
    To influence the American people is politics. Tulsi Gabbard appears to make a sincere and persistent effort to reduce the wars carried out by the US in this world, through traditional political means.

    We know those are easily blocked and worked around, right?
    Why does she do anything?

    Each of us has a path in life. She seems to be earnestly trying to reduce the suffering of war in the world as she walks/surfs her path.

    I could not be a politician, for many reasons. I am completely unsited to it, but I have admired the attempts of Cynthia McKinney, JFK, RFK, Ron Paul, dennis Kucinich, Rand Paul and Paul Wllstone.
    I admire the political attempts of Tulsi Gabbard to reduce the suffering in the world.
    She may “die funny”.
