    • Biden Speech ‘Awkwardly Militaristic, Threatening’ – Former DoD Analyst (Sp.)

    https://sputnikglobe.com/20231020/bidens-speech-awkwardly-militaristic–threatening-1114344327.html

    Joe Biden’s speech from the Oval Office on Thursday was at once “militaristic”, “threatening”, steeped in “self-aggrandizement”, and permeated with “direct lies”, retired Lt-Col Karen Kwiatkowski, a former analyst for the US Department of Defense, told Sputnik.

    Must pass the essential budget bills by 17 November.

    • Biden Speech Embodied ‘America Last’ Policy – Ex-Diplomat (Sp.)

    https://sputnikglobe.com/20231021/biden-speech-on-aid-to-israel-ukraine-embodied-america-last-policy-says-ex-us-diplomat-1114373322.html

    President Joe Biden’s nationally broadcast speech seeking broad support for stepping up already huge levels of US aid to Ukraine and Israel was another unthinking, reflexive expression of the globalist mindset that has been destroying the US economy and society over the past several decades in pursuit of crazed international goals, former State Department diplomat James Carden said.
    However, Carden pointed out that Biden paid no attention to the out of control crime, security, economic, social and drug crises now sweeping the United States.

    Didn’t post or lost, try again:

    Still no easy formatting yet. Can it get a little more fixed? I use it a lot.

    Russia lost somewhere between 20 and 100 tanks (1st casualty is the truth) and getting just as hammered as the Ukries were trying the other way. Again: <i>the Offense has become too powerful.</i> Question for any war experts out there: why aren’t the Russians using jets yet? I had just assumed they were harboring them for a siege defense, and wait for anti-aircraft to run out, but it has. Now is the time.

    Now granted, they haven’t fought the Ukrainians, only the mines (as usual) but I don’t think I’d lose 100 tanks without turning the entering fields into a craterfield, and everything within 10 miles back be flattened. I’m sure there’s a reason, but seems expensive.

    <i> “Russia Will “Pay The Price” for Supporting Gaza: Israeli Official</i>

    Really? Because half of Israel is Russian, and historically Russia is unusually aligned with Israel. Another step where the Cool Kids say “You can’t play in my sandbox”. So 200 other nations start a new school elsewhere, leaving the 5 all alone. You’ve just cut off YOURSELF. You’ve just sanctioned YOURSELF. Because you’re a moron and a child.

    More dead Leopards yesterday? So gosh golly, no Abrams burning on the steppes. We pulled out early. I guess England and Germany will have to take the hit. So sad.

    <i>“California Attorney General Bob Bonta is hoppin’ mad after a federal judge in San Diego declared the state’s law banning assault weapons to be unconstitutional, and that a 1989 prohibition on certain semi-automatic weapons could not stand in light of a US Supreme Court ruling last year…”</i>

    That’s funny, I didn’t know AGs made the law. I thought we followed, HAD to follow, whatever the Supreme Court said. …Unless we put in a Judge that says what I don’t like, and then we don’t.

    <i>“Biden just gave a 17 minute speech about how a mushroom should be re-elected because… War President.
    But what’s really happening is the US is being forced to choose … Israel or Ukraine” –Luongo</i>

    They’re opening a second front on Russia. Russia is opening a second front on us. …Or third. They already opened Africa and took it.

    <i>“Biden’s request to Congress includes:
    $14 billion for Israel
    $60 billion for Ukraine
    $10 billion for general humanitarian aid
    $7 billion for the Indo-Pacific
    $100 million for Gaza
    $14 billion to process illegals faster at the border”</i>

    …And zero for the American People.

    <i>““The speech will be remembered, if at all, as a perfect encapsulation of the ‘America Last’ mindset of our ruling class,” — James Carden</i>

    If Congress was in session, they would have given it to him. The lobbyists are starting to scream, I hear. Their heroin is being cut off and they’re on the attack. Way worse than an army of flying monkeys. I wonder how the nation’s top child disappearances stats are doing. They also disappear most at Halloween. Coincidence, I hear.

    <i>“• US State Department Arms Transfers Chief Resigns Over Israel (RT)</i>

    I mean, good, but… Is that the best strategy? Very likely: it is a very powerful statement.

    The rest of us never run for office for the same reason, does that count? <i>”Washington was repeating the same mistakes that it made for decades, he wrote.” </i> So should we be mad he DID do this whole career-through, the way the FBI promotes and railroads people then protects the agents and AGs (and Whitey Bulgurs)? Or should we be glad after “Decades” of helping a violent psychopath, he finally saw the light?

    Not sure. Not saying that’s a simple question. There’s one of those “Lines which pass through the center of each human heart” things.

    <i>“blockade Gaza, and compared it with “the siege of Leningrad during World War Two.” </i>

    He’s bringing up that it’s PUTIN, but really it’s Israel here. Putin says nothing if Israel is merely shooting 12-year-olds in the face like the last 50 years. Right? But killing a million in one go, through intentional starvation and murder? That’s a new low for Israel, and therefore is a new remark and a new challenge.

    Here’s his problem though: <i>they are doing this knowing Putin needs his allies in the “Long, soft underbelly” of Russia </i>the CIA/MI6 lettermen screwed up and lost like they screw up everything. So they — his Federation allies — will demand Putin get involved, and to do so <i>they need an affront that is so egregious, it’s unbearable.</i> Then Russia steams their ships mere to send wheat to Gaza – to prevent a million dead – and Britain, the Anglos, <i>“Oceana”, ruler of the seas, sinks them.</i> Drawing Russia into a World War on terrain where Oceana has the advantage. Right?

    So Putin may comment but <i>note he DOES nothing.</i> And that may be hard to take, but it’s the political and military reality right now. They need Russia to commit, EMOTIONALLY. These alien weirdos are psychopaths, devoid of all humanity, and therefore always win on their terms, by running all the lemmings around using their emotions. That’s why they say “Humans are animals”, “Love is weakness”, etc. Sure, sometimes. Emotions are also what makes us strong too, which they can’t understand, never having them.

    Anyway, Pepe misses the larger point here.

    <i>“Joe Biden’s speech from the Oval Office on Thursday was at once “militaristic”, “threatening”, steeped in “self-aggrandizement”, and permeated with “direct lies”,</i>

    Perfect. Keep talking. Freedom of Speech. How else can we know who you really are?

    <i>““He also curiously spoke of the United States as a beacon of freedom of religion and speech – even as he was asking for billions more to send to countries where churches and religions are being banned, where elections are suspended, and the allied governments’ – in Tel Aviv and in Kiev – intolerance and war against different ethnicities, religions and cultures reminds the world of 1939 Germany,” </i>

    Wait, <i>I thought he was talking about the war on all the Red counties and people.</i> Churches banned, casinos and liquor stores wide open. Potterville in action. If you didn’t want to be arrested, why did you have an unapproved opinion? Why did you go to a school board meeting?

    <i>“This whole story was made up on the spot and based on a false premise, and to be honest I don’t know where it came from.”</i>

    Americans are in a post-Truth reality. They just say things, and “making them up” is exactly the same as if they happen to be real: They give zero thought to either. What was that lady now extorting a famous pitcher? Not the first time. She just “Made it up”. <i>“I said some s—t and now everyone runs around their hair on fire for me.” </i> There is not a lunatic on earth that doesn’t love that. They can do it all day! I say two words and you all run around with a serious look on your face, super concerned as if something happened? Man, why would you ever stop?!? It’s better than “The Joker.”

    Anyway, I’d be shocked if anything they ever said was true, not false.

    <i>“In his mumble-filled, incoherent televised address, Biden said: “American leadership is what holds the world together.”</i>

    Hahahahaha. Then count your chickens, bub. We’re about to go Local.

    Speaking of, I don’t know if you can see this on the 10-year Dow, the pattern today is exactly a larger fractal of the 2018 one. So Dow 40,000 and then serious crash. That is a logical fundamental from how the plumbing works as well: the core currency dies LAST. It dies in a BLOWOFF, from being too STRONG. That is, its strength is finally used against it, Greek-play style.

    <i>“the aid to Ukraine is getting bundled with funding for Israel, Taiwan, and the US border.”</i>

    Yup. Exactly, perfectly the Gaetz-McCarthy run here: he merely wants separate bills. That’s it. So we know what we’re voting on. That is too much for McCarthy and the Uniparty RINOs so here we are: No bills at all. I say keep it up until the FBI falls.

    <i>When the lies, manipulation are this far removed from all logic and human norms, it takes superhuman effort to make them continue.</i> They are counting on that cost being too high, the energy being too much. And what’s more, tomorrow they still need MOAR. This is an essential root function of being #AntiLogos, against God and all reality. That to defy gravity, physics, requires Energy. You are always fighting the river, and the river always wins. By doing nothing; it is never tired. This is the Tao, the Way. This is the energy flow of reality, the “Implicate Order” then “Automatic Earth” making itself as a self-organizing collective.

    (PS. that’s also “Capitalism”. The order, the rules, and the wealth arise organically up from us not down from “Them”.)

    <i>“Washington has taken part in “secret,” Qatari-brokered talks to free the captives in the weeks since, according to Bloomberg.”</i>

    But paid them $100M dollars anyway.

    <i>“We expect Israel to act within international humanitarian law,”</i>

    Why? They never have before. Isn’t Israel the most UN-sanctioned state in world history? So when do we invade them and restore democracy? I mean, they discovered oil, so isn’t now a good time?

    <i>“Forget about rules, forget about world order. They won’t ever listen to us again.”</i>

    Gosh I hope so. He’s senseless though: wasn’t that ALREADY true, after invasion and occupation of Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria…? Libya, Sudan, Panama, Granada even? Like <i>that wasn’t enough for you???</i> Okay, well, everyone’s a moron, we’ll turn it up to 11 if that’s what it takes to wake you.

    <i>““.. an unapologetic neoconservative and transatlanticist who is single-handedly undermining the autonomy, respect, and foreign policy stature of the EU..”</i>

    Same. Yay! Free speech. Never stop. Can we get two more Van der Lyin’s and a couple more Josep “The Garden” Borrells? I know it’s nearly impossible to find humans this evil and dumb, but can we clone them and put them on TV 24/7? Like “Malkovitch Malkovitch”? https://youtu.be/lIpev8JXJHQ?t=60

    <i>“the decision was essentially outsourced to the US, discrediting the EU”</i>

    SURELY, that is impossible at this point. <i>There is no remaining action that could discredit the EU more than they already have.</i> Also, I think said elsewhere, it’s not her job. It’s like the EU Highway Department commenting on UK fisheries policy. Shut your hole, you have no place there.

    <i>““..she has imposed a vaguely worded court order that could turn campaign speeches into criminal contempt..”</i>

    Please go on national TV. Please keep doing what you’re doing and showing everyone. They’ve been doing this all along, for decades, it’s only now at this level that the news bothers to admit it. Only when it’s out this far — and a lot further I guess — will there be support for true reform.

    Oh yeah, and US rates at 6% on the most local chart. By then will Europe have cracked? He’ll lower, but the capital flows will be to us first?

    My only concern is, yes, but it’ll happen in 24 hours as everything seizes up instead of playing out on the charts.

    gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulphide.

    Checks using electronic atmospheric monitoring equipment should always be made to ensure that methane or other potentially explosive gas (e.g. Hydrogen) is not present in the ground to be traversed. Tests for potentially explosive gas should be specifically carried out before charging a face and after blasting.

    7.4.3 It is strongly recommended that ventilation should be used to maintain the concentration of methane or other explosive gas below 10% of the lower explosive limit.

    EXCLUSIVE: Health Canada Confirms Undisclosed Presence of DNA Sequence in Pfizer Shot
    “Health Canada has confirmed the presence of a Simian Virus 40 (SV40) DNA sequence in the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, which the manufacturer had not previously disclosed. There is debate among scientists with regards to the significance of the finding, with some saying it has the potential to cause cancer, and others saying it poses little to no threat.

    “Health Canada expects sponsors to identify any biologically functional DNA sequences within a plasmid (such as an SV40 enhancer) at the time of submission,” the agency said in an email to The Epoch Times.

    “Although the full DNA sequence of the Pfizer plasmid was provided at the time of initial filing, the sponsor did not specifically identify the SV40 sequence.”

    The regulator said that after scientists Kevin McKernan and Dr. Phillip J. Buckhaults publicly raised the presence of SV40 enhancers in the vaccines earlier this year, “it was possible for Health Canada to confirm the presence of the enhancer based on the plasmid DNA sequence submitted by Pfizer against the published SV40 enhancer sequence.”

    Both scientists have made waves after discovering plasmid DNA in the mRNA COVID-19 injections, warning it could potentially alter the human genome. However, the two share different degrees of concern about the significance of an SV40 sequence—which is used as an enhancer to drive gene transcription during the vaccine manufacturing process—being present in the shots.
    Mr. McKernan, a former researcher and team leader for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Human Genome Project, told The Epoch Times he suspects Pfizer didn’t disclose the presence of the DNA sequence due to the association of SV40 with polio vaccines. He said while there is no evidence the sequence is carcinogenic, he has concerns about its integration into the human genome.

    The polyomavirus Simian Virus 40, an oncogenic DNA virus, was previously removed from polio vaccines due to concerns about a link to cancers. Polio vaccines used in the late 1950s and early 1960s were found to be contaminated with SV40 as the virus was present in monkey kidney cells that were used to grow the vaccine.

    Mr. McKernan said while the full 5kb SV40 virus was present in the polio vaccines, the presence of SV40 promoters was still concerning due to the risk of them integrating into the human genomes near oncogenes, which are genes that have the potential to cause cancer

    Angus Dalgleish, professor of oncology at St. George’s Hospital Medical School in London, recently wrote in The Conservative Woman about a higher incidence of cancers following COVID-19 vaccination seen by himself and his colleagues, including an “epidemic of explosive cancers” with multiple metastatic spread.
    He noted the potential “DNA plasmid and SV40 integration in promoting cancer development.”

    Dr. Lindsay questioned why Pfizer failed to disclose the SV40 promoter to regulators like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency, and Health Canada.

    “They hid them. So it’s not just the fact that they’re there, it’s the fact that they were purposefully hidden from the regulators,” she said.

    Pfizer did not respond to The Epoch Times’ request for comment.”

    @John Day – good article. Looks like Hamas will be accidentally hitting a few more churches and hospitals with faulty missiles in the coming days. Oddly enough, we can probably tell which ones they will be simply by referring to the Israeli target list. What a coinkydink.

    Can you hear that howling gale? Or as Ross Perot would say, that “giant sucking sound”? It is the sound of global power, legitimacy, and respect being withdrawn from the West at a frightening pace. The rest of the world has already read the new multi-polar, anti-colonialism script and is awaiting their turn on the stage. Only western audiences are unaware of this historic shift, being quadruple-boosted and either unwilling or too lazy to leave the comfort of their media Lie Matrix. No matter how many times the curtain is pulled back to expose the rot and corruption, they refuse to see. For example:

    WTC-7 falls –> Nope, nothing to see here.
    Iraqi WMD’s –> So sorry, mistakes were made?
    Rigged 2016 Democratic primary –> Look, a squirrel!
    Russia-gate –> Kill the Trump, we hates him!
    Soros BLM riots –> Mostly peaceful protests.
    Hunter’s laptop from Hell –> Russian disinformation!
    Brazenly stolen 2020 election –> The man on TV said it was on the up-and-up.
    Jan 6 protest –> Insurrection! Attack on our democracy!
    Open borders –> Diversity is our strength!
    Ukraine proxy war –> Unprovoked Russian invasion!
    Dementia Joe shaking hands with ghosts –> He’s the reincarnation of FDR.

    How can you help such a people? At this point I’m not sure there is a path of reclamation.

    ​ Amid War on Gaza, Scores of Palestinians Killed By Israeli Forces, Settlers in the West Bank
    ​ Amid Tel Aviv’s massive bombing campaign against the densely populated, besieged Gaza Strip, Israeli forces and illegal settlers have been on a rampage of violence, terror, torture, and murder throughout the occupied West Bank.
    ​ On October 7, Hamas carried out a surprise attack against southern Israel and the war against the people of Gaza was launched. Since then, Israeli gunfire in the West Bank has killed at least 75 Palestinians – including roughly 20 children – while over 1,300 have been wounded.

    ​Moon of Alabama (Bernard) , Netanyahoo’s Strategic Dilemma
    ​ Netanyahoo must attack Gaza to restore deterrence. He can not attack Gaza because the urban warfare would cause large Israeli casualties. He can not attack Gaza because Hizbullah would then destroy the myth of the superior settler state even more than Hamas has done so far.
    ​ Israel, with the help of the U.S., has tried to push the population of Gaza into Egypt. From Egypt’s standpoint that would be a humanitarian solution, at least as long as others pay for it. But it would cause a serious strategic problem. Resistance by Hamas and others against Israel would continue indefinitely, but Egypt would be held responsible for it. It can not and will not take on that burden.
    ​ Netanyahoo’s next idea was to starve Gaza. But the world will not let him do that. At least not beyond a certain point. Even the UN Secretary General has visited the Rafah crossing. Other global organizations, like the WHO and ASEAN, have spoken up. Pictures of starving people will make it impossible for the west to support that ‘solution’.
    ​ Meanwhile Hamas fighters will continue to sit in their tunnels, ready to defend their land, and likely with enough provisions to hold out for months.
    ​ Israeli settlers, with the support of the IDF, are rampaging through the West Bank. They are killing more Palestinians and further enrage the global public against their deeds. This will escalate.
    ​ Israel’s decision making is paralyzed. It will for now continue to talk of a ground invasion but will not launch one. It will also continue to starve Gaza.
    But something will soon break.

    ​ Israel Plans to Turn Gaza Into ‘Hiroshima’ But Without Nuclear Weapons – Sy Hersh
    ​ Furthermore, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has every intention “to wipe out Hamas,” with little concern for hundreds of thousands of citizens of Gaza that were told to evacuate and move south of the enclave on October 12, underscored Sy Hersh, referencing unnamed intelligence analysts in Washington.
    ​ Netanyahu formed an emergency unity government a few days ago with ex-military Chief of Staff Benny Gantz to bring his National Unity party into the governing coalition and join the war cabinet including Defense Minster Yoav Gallant. Israel has vowed to “destroy” the Hamas movement ruling in the Gaza Strip after its attacks on Southern Israel. After calling up a reported 350,000 army reservists — totalling around a tenth of the country’s workforce — since October 7, Israel appeared to be holding back on an invasion​…
    ​..“Under the Israeli plans, there would be no need for a massive ground invasion,” insiders had informed Hersh, while Israeli troops, “would be needed for hunting down those Hamas members underground who choose to surrender.” However, the orders to the Israeli military, according to a cited official, would be “shoot on sight,” with surrender not an option.

    ​ Rafah Crossing open, Israel obstructing entry of aid to Gaza, says Egypt
    ​ Egypt said, Friday, that the Rafah Border Crossing with Gaza was open on its side, accusing Israel of “refusing” the entry of aid into the besieged enclave, Anadolu Agency reports.
    ​ Egypt is clearly being targeted in Western media, which is promoting a “displacement scenario” for Palestinians and holding Cairo responsible for the crossing’s closure despite Israel’s “targeted attacks and refusal of aid entry,” Foreign Ministry spokesman, Ahmed Abu Zeid, said on X.

    Egypt started large-scale military exercises simulating a war with Israel in the Sinai region while at the same time putting Air Force Squadrons on red alert.
    The mobilization of the Egyptian Armed Forces was deemed necessary after the joint ultimatum of Al-Sisi and King Abdullah II of Jordan to Israel.
    The displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to Sinai is a “red line” for Cairo.

    ​ Scott Ritter: Hamas ‘Laid Trap’ for Israel as US Cannot Replenish Iron Dome
    ​ Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared war on the Hamas movement that rules in the besieged Gaza Strip in the wake of the surprise attack by several allied militant groups on October 7.
    ​ The incursion and subsequent skirmishes — including with Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas on Israel’s northern border — has left almost 300 Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) troops dead with 200 more held captive in Gaza. around 1,000 Israeli civilians were also killed. That represents Israel’s worst losses since its 1982 invasion of southern Lebanon.
    ​ Tel Aviv has called up some 350,000 IDF reservists and has bombed Gaza for almost two weeks in preparation for a ground offensive, which Economy Minister Nir Barkat said had been given the “green light” on Thursday. But that invasion has yet to materialise.
    ​ Former US Marine and UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter told Sputnik the IDF simply “can’t go into Gaza.”
    “If they go into Gaza, they will be slaughtered by Hamas who has deliberately set this trap,” Ritter stressed. “Hamas is waiting for them to come in. Hamas will kill them in large numbers.”
    ​ Along with the risk of heavy casualties in Gaza, Israel is wary of Hezbollah’s threat to launch a major attack from the north if the IDF goes in.
    “Israel cannot beat Hezbollah,” Ritter argued. “There’s a real likelihood that if Hezbollah comes in with everything they have, they will seize northern Israel in its totality, all the way up to the Sea of Galilee. Syria will recapture the Golan Heights, and there isn’t anything Israel can do to stop it.”

    ​ Israel’s attack on the fifth-century Church of Saint Porphyrius in Gaza has turned the spotlight on the besieged Palestinian enclave’s Christian population.
    ​ At least 18 people were killed in the bombing on a social services annex in the church’s complex of buildings. Both Muslims and Christians took shelter within its walls hoping that its historical and religious importance would spare it the carnage that has affected other areas of Gaza.
    ​ As part of historic Palestine it is impossible to disconnect the history of Palestinian Christians in Gaza from those who share their faith in the occupied West Bank, Jerusalem and within the Palestinian community in Israel.
    ​ The region is the birthplace of Christianity and the location of many of the events of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible.
    Palestinian Christians in Gaza, like other Palestinians there, do not see themselves as detached from the wider Palestinian nation.

    Pepe Escobar, Russia, China Map Out New Economic Order in Beijing​
    $1 trillion in Chinese investments later, the white paper summed it all up: BRI is steadily advancing as a multi-layered platform of international trade and connectivity; as a mechanism to develop vast swathes of the Global South/Global Majority; and as a practical counterpart to Western hegemony.
    ​ The bulk of BRI projects concern extractive industries and transportation corridors. It’s not by accident that key extractive industries are concentrated in Russia and the Persian Gulf – and that is intimately linked to Beijing’s complex strategic drive to bypass Hegemon containment and instances of Hybrid War.​..
    ​..As much as Putin stressed both Russia and China’s “respect for civilizational diversity” as well as the right of each civilization-state to its own development model, what really stood out was his detailed explanation of connectivity corridors…
    ..Putin, Xi and the guests at the Belt and Road Forum made it quite clear this is essentially about new commodity supply chains; new and improved Maritime Silk Roads; and bypassing Western-controlled choke points – as the (attached) map shows. It’s all leading to an interconnected maze featuring BRI, BRICS, EAEU and SCO…

    ​ India’s government is expected to reject demands from Russian oil companies to pay for Russia’s crude oil imports in Chinese yuan, Indian officials told Bloomberg on Friday.
    ​ Russia and its companies need Chinese currency as Russian trade has become much more reliant on China after Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and the sanctions on Russia. Moscow has a lot of Indian rupees, but it can’t spend them all while it needs yuan.​ [Note: Gold always works.]

    ​ Yesterday I posted Ellen Brown’s review of “The Great Taking”, and Sasha Latypova relates here what happened when all of the money disappeared one day in Russia, all of it, for 2 years, and it never came back.
    ​ David Webb, The Great Taking​ , His research explains the financial underpinnings of the Great Reset.
    ​ From my personal experience, I already lived through one “great taking”, performed by whoever collapsed the Soviet Union. When Ukraine became independent from the former USSR in 1991, the ruble and any savings that anyone had at Sberbank (the only bank that existed in the USSR) disappeared overnight, and were not replaced. One can argue this was a very simple exercise given that only one state-owned bank was involved or needed to implement this reset, and there were no financial instruments, only cash savings in that bank. My grandparents had meager savings there and ended up with zero. I had no money at all as a young person, and I guess that can be a plus – when you own nothing, nobody can confiscate it from you. Afterwards, there was no currency in circulation in the country for approximately 2 years until hryvna was designed and printed and introduced. During those years, people (including me) received paychecks in the form of this – gov issued IOUs exchangeable for goods in stores that had any goods.
    ​ According to David Webb, the real assets that are owned without debt are probably the most secure, and my personal experience corroborates this. Privately owned businesses that also have no debt are probably fairly secure too, but in the event of a large scale market collapse they may or may not be able to continue as a going concern. In addition, as we saw in Lahaina and elsewhere, the global puppeteers have more tricks to steal land and other assets whether financed with debt or not.
    ​ Whether the Great Taking will occur or not, and when, is hard to predict. The scale is also hard to predict – all at once, regional, or some “market participants” but not others – all remains a possibility. In the meantime, all we can do is understand the system that is set up and being used against us, understand the agenda and the goals of the evil empire. This will enable effective individual decisions and actions we make every day.

    The US government and some European allies are pushing Israel to postpone its ground attack on the Gaza Strip in order to negotiate the release of more hostages held by Hamas, Bloomberg reported.

    The Jews will delay to save the lives of innocent Jews, but will not act to save the lives of innocent Palestinians. The Jews see the Palestinians are animals and their own as the chosen ones. All non-Jews are all Palestinians, the WEF and other globalist Jews want us all in the same conditions as the Palestinians, owning nothing and being effectively in government jail. The reaction of the USA government to the Israel skirmish shows you that the Jews absolutely control America and absolutely support Israel. Most Americans are too afraid to admit that. Well, with cowardice comes slavery and the rest of the world watches the average American in slavery, being diluted by migration and being treated like low lifes by their government. The USA democracy is exclusively for Israel supporting candidates. Bow down to your Jewish leaders, subhuman American proletariat. Beg their forgiveness for the holocaust scam, the Covid scam, and all the other scams.

    Travelled to Vietnam recently. At the airport I was surprised to see that lots, maybe 50%, of white people in the immigration queues were wearing masks. I had thought that the Chinese were the worst mask wearers, mainly because they are germ-phobic and are expected to wear masks when they have a cold, but I have not seen 50% of Chinese wearing masks since Covid. What is wrong with white people? Why are they still doing this, keeping Covid alive in their hearts, if not in their brains.

    American Patriots are sleepwalking into what will lead to the final nail in the coffin for the US of A. All it took was a well planned False-Flag and Fake News stories about decapitated babies, and conservatives forgot all about the election heist, the genocide-jab, and are ready to give Biden WAR POWERS to fight Iran on behalf of Israel… DUMB
