ParticipantSachs makes the case for Trump’s plan to rehabilitate the $US as global reserve currency:
“So, the point is we need alternatives, this is clear,” Sachs stated. “Of course, countries need non-dollar payment mechanisms. We are going to need some quick, special-vehicle entities that are not also engaged in the dollar payment systems… entities that cannot be directly sanctioned…”
The economist stressed that “the best alternative would be if the US recovers sense, decency and legality and stops imposing unilateral sanctions.”

Participant Dr. Mercola, Billions Worldwide Face Micronutrient Deficiencies, Study Finds
A recent study published in The Lancet Global Health found that over half of the global population is lacking essential micronutrients, with deficiencies varying by age and gender
The researchers found that more than 5 billion people are deficient in iodine (68%), vitamin E (67%) and calcium (66%), while over 4 billion lack iron (65%), riboflavin (55%), folate (54%) and vitamin C (53%)
In the U.S., common nutrient deficiencies include vitamins D, B12, B1, B2, B3, A, C and E, as well as calcium, magnesium and iodine.

Kyiv is ready for a ceasefire along the current front line. This is reported by the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera. According to the publication, Ukraine does not want to officially recognize the sovereignty of the Russian Federation over the DPR, LPR, parts of the Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, and in exchange expects to quickly join the European Union.

Swedish engineer Erik Andersson has personally investigated the September 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines. He is perhaps the most informed independent investigator of the incident and the associated legal and political drama.
Andersson provided an updated defense document filed by the pipelines’ insurers (attached) and posted his observations on X...
..Andersson’s personal view is that it doesn’t matter much if Team USA trusted and protected the Ukrainian sailboat crew so they could place the bombs, or if they just waited for the sailboat cover operation to finish before detonating the bombs they had placed there by other means (making sure they didn’t do anything that couldn’t have been done from a sailboat).
The presence of American, Danish and Swedish warships in the area, with all their surveillance capabilities, including the underwater surveillance, makes it a very hard sell that the Ukrainians did this alone without American participation.
American warships were also present at the crime scene when it was closed off (justified by an erroneous interpretation of international law) and cleaned up by the Swedish investigation. If any materials were found which contradicted the sailboat narrative, these materials could have been removed.
It’s impossible to trust the investigations when (1) the crime scene was illegally blocked & cleaned with US military protection, (2) international investigation was blocked, and (3) the Swedish and Danish investigations were closed with a bogus justification contradicting the premise of “jurisdiction” which was used to seize control of all information in the first place. (Very interesting point about Sweden and Denmark. After 16+ months of investigation, they both punted. Sweden suddenly didn’t have jurisdiction and Denmark decided they didn’t have sufficient grounds to pursue a criminal case.) https://budsoffshoreenergy.com/2024/10/08/erik-anderssons-informative-nord-stream-update/Starving to death… EU committing ‘energy suicide’ – Gazprom CEO, The bloc’s economy is suffering without cheap Russian gas, Aleksey Miller has said https://swentr.site/business/605522-eu-energy-suicide-gazprom/

Participant Russia Calls Out US Deep State on Covering Up P. Diddy Sex Scandal
For many years, P. Diddy’s “white parties” were highly exclusive and not all Hollywood stars were given access. Participation at this level of crime was reserved for the highly exceptional business elites only, according to the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman.
US law enforcement agencies and special services were involved in all this media blackmail, as well as “thousands of people” who were engaged in the “criminal network,” Zakharova said.
She also noted that many US experts believe the content of those “freak-offs” was recorded. The records enabled the creation of an “elite network” which has been spreading information to manipulate public opinion for years.
Zakharova also made the topic-related remarks on her Telegram page: “Now it is clear why the American deep state is interested in foreign policy, the Ukrainian agenda, hacking accusations against Russia, the “Kremlin hand,” and purported interference in US elections – all this is a smokescreen and a distraction from the bottomless decline of a society whose elite rapes children.” https://sputnikglobe.com/20241009/russia-calls-out-us-deep-state-on-covering-up-p-diddy-sex-scandal-1120487322.htmlI hope she’s not “suicidal”.

Globalists Are Taking The Mask Off And That’s A Bad Sign…
Besides some of the speeches made by Klaus Schwab at the height of the pandemic, Kerry’s statements might be the most open declaration of globalist authoritarian intent I have ever heard. He’s pulling the mask off and this has me concerned.
His arguments fall in line with a number of articles published in the past couple months from establishment media platforms. The New Yorker just posted an article asking ‘Is It Time To Torch The Constitution?’ The New York Times published a treatise titled ‘The Constitution Is Sacred. Is It Also Dangerous?’ They also wrote an article highlighting the potential positives of despotic governments in countries like Brazil threatening to shut down public access to Elon Musk’s X (Twitter) in order to force the site to censor citizen accounts. These people are on a war path to convince the public that free speech is a threat.
When political elitists and their lackey’s start attacking free speech it’s usually in preparation for a major crisis that they hope to use as a vehicle to eliminate public freedoms. Free speech is the most important liberty because it enables the populace to discern through debate what the truth is and what to do about it.
The globalists thought they had a lock on information during covid and they were wrong. They won’t make the same mistake again. Whatever the next crisis ends up being, they will definitely seek to silence the the alternative media and any rebellious social media platforms before they move forward. https://alt-market.us/globalists-are-taking-the-mask-off-and-thats-a-bad-sign/Res ipsi loquitur (It speaks for itself) ‘Not Acceptable’: Obama Scolds Black ‘Brothers’ For Not Backing Harris – Blames Sexism https://www.zerohedge.com/political/not-acceptable-obama-scolds-black-brothers-not-backing-harris-blames-sexism

The UN’s peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon, UNIFIL, said Thursday that Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers fired on its positions multiple times, and two peacekeepers were wounded by an Israeli tank.
UNIFIL said its headquarters in the town of Naqoura and several nearby positions came under repeated Israeli attacks. “This morning, two peacekeepers were injured after an IDF Merkava tank fired its weapon toward an observation tower at UNIFIL’s headquarters in Naqoura, directly hitting it and causing them to fall,” UNIFIL said in a statement.
UNIFIL said the injuries were not serious, but the two wounded peacekeepers remain in the hospital. The statement said the IDF also fired on a UN position in the town of Labbouneh, “hitting the entrance to the bunker where peacekeepers were sheltering and damaging vehicles and a communications system.”
A day earlier, UNIFIL said Israeli troops “deliberately fired at and disabled the position’s perimeter-monitoring cameras.”
The Israeli attacks on UN peacekeepers came after the Israeli military told UNIFIL to abandon its positions in southern Lebanon. https://news.antiwar.com/2024/10/10/israeli-troops-fire-on-un-peacekeepers-in-southern-lebanon/#gsc.tab=0Mike Whitney, If Tehran Is Turned “Into a Parking Lot”, Israel Will be Soon to Follow [Whitney doesn’t know about the underground test last Saturday yet.]
Israel now has its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East. We must act now to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime. We have the justification. We have the tools. Now that Hezbollah and Hamas are paralyzed, Iran stands exposed. —Naftali Bennett, former Israeli Prime Minister
For Israel to achieve its regional ambitions, it must lure the US into a war with Iran.
In order to accomplish that feat, Israel must strike Iran with enough force to provoke a violent and destructive retaliation.
As soon as it looks like Israel is in trouble, the US will ride to the rescue with “guns blazing”...
..Americans are under the illusion that the United States will prevail in a war with Iran. But it’s not true. Iran has been preparing for a war with the US for over two decades, and they are ready-to-go. They have developed a missile technology that far exceeds anything currently available in the Pentagon’s arsenal and they are fully prepared to conduct a protracted asymmetrical war that will trigger a cataclysmic disruption of critical supply lines followed by the thundering crash of global markets.
Bottom line: If the US attacks Iran, Washington is going to suffer a withering knockout blow that will end its dominance in the region and perhaps the world.
The top brass in the Pentagon know this as do many in the Intelligence community.
They know that a war with Iran is a bridge too far and a fast-track to the dustbin of history…
..That same calculus exists today. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have already been briefed on this reality. Donald Trump is already familiar with it. We cannot defeat Iran in a conventional fight. And here’s the gamechanger: The IRGC came out with a press release saying….”The Islamic faith allows things to change over time if a threat emerges against the Islamic Republic. And, if this threat does manifest itself, Iran will reconsider its stance on nuclear weapons. Iran is literally days away from being able to produce a nuclear weapon. If the US or Israel wants to play nuclear games, Iran is ready to play that game”. And this changes everything because Israel can no longer say, “We can nuke you, but you can’t nuke us”. Iran has put all the pieces together, and it would be a matter of days before they have a functioning nuclear device capable of being mounted on a missile that cannot be shot down and that missile will be fired against Israel or American targets in the region.
This is a gamechanger. The days of the United States intimidating Iran are over, passed, finished. And the same with Israel. Israel can be wiped out tomorrow. Iran is prepared to fire 2,000 missiles at Israel in the span of a few hours. These missiles would destroy the entire infrastructure of Israel including every power plant, every water purification plant, everything that deals with modern civilized society will be eliminated because it can’t be defended and because Israel has nothing to fall back upon. They will literally bombed back to the Stone Age, and that’s without using nuclear weapons. Three to five nuclear weapons will wipe Israel off the face of the earth. There will be no Israel. That is the reality facing Israel today. That is the weakness that Benjamin Netanyahu has brought on the Israeli state and the Israeli people. https://www.globalresearch.ca/tehran-turned-parking-lot-israel-follow/5869889 North Korea is “getting out more”, recently: North Korea Enhancing Strategic Arsenal, Building First Nuclear-powered Submarine, Allied with Russia https://www.globalresearch.ca/north-korea-building-first-nuclear-powered-submarine/5869836

Scott Ritter: The Fall of Israel
The (10/7/2023) Hamas raid triggered a number of varied responses, some of which were by design, such as luring the Israeli Defense Forces into Gaza, where they would become trapped in a forever war they could not win, triggering the dual Israeli doctrines governing military response to hostage taking of the “Hannibal Doctrine” and the Israeli practice of collective punishment, the “Dahiya Doctrine.”
Both of these doctrines put the IDF on display to the world as the antithesis of the “world’s most moral military” by exposing the murderous intent ingrained into the DNA of the IDF, a propensity for violence against innocents which defines the Israeli way of war and, by extension, the Israeli nation.
Prior to Oct. 7, 2023, Israel was able to disguise its true character to the outside world, convincing all but a handful of activists that its actions in targeting “terrorists” were proportional and humane.

Does Israel Wag America or Does America Wag Israel
Americans who pay attention are critical of Israel for its control not only of US foreign policy but also US domestic policies, such as those regulating speech, and even tenure decisions of Catholic universities. CIA personnel have complained that attempts to rein-in Israeli spying on America have been politically blocked…
..The visible evidence indicates that Israel controls America, not America controls Israel. But there is another view. It is well stated here — https://www.unz.com/mhudson/middle-east-exploding-ukraine-crumbling-the-u-s-take-action/ — by Michael Hudson and Richard Wolfe. Gilbert Doctorow shares it.
Hudson and Wolfe are credible witnesses, because they, especially Hudson, participated in the formation of Washington’s policy to use and direct Israel in behalf of US hegemony in the Middle East. Israel is Washington’s proxy against the Muslims, just as Ukrainians are Washington’s proxy against Russia, just as Georgians were when Washington sent them to invade South Ossetia, and just as the British and Europe are by serving Washington’s hegemony at the risk of their own destruction.
Looking at it from this standpoint, the view that Israel controls Washington serves as a cover to protect Washington from responsibility for Israel’s actions that serve Washington’s agendas.
Instead of choosing between the two explanations, I would say both are true. The cover has been in place for 50 years, and during that time due to belief in it, acquired its own power. The consequence is that whereas Israel has as much power over Americans’ First Amendment rights as the US Supreme Court, Israel continues as Washington’s proxy against the Arabs...
..Hudson and Wolfe support the point that I have often made. No one with a wide audience, money, or clout from a think tank, university, or major foundation is saying a word about the risks of two wars spinning out of control into nuclear war. Those few of us speaking are isolated individuals denounced as Russian agents, anti-semites, and purveyors of disinformation. This should scare the world to death.

..“The president affirmed his ironclad commitment to Israel’s security,” the statement added. “He condemned unequivocally Iran’s ballistic missile attack against Israel on October 1.”…
..The call comes as Israel considers an attack against Iran in response to Iranian ballistic missile launches that targeted Israeli military sites last week...

Ugo Bardi has more useful perspective: The Age of Exterminations (III). Why you Should be Worried. Very Worried
The extermination of social subgroups is a relatively recent phenomenon in history but, unfortunately, it seems to have become more and more frequent in recent times. Often, as in the case of the witch-hunting age, extermination is the result of a perfectly rational attitude that develops in societies under heavy stress. When a social subgroup is relatively wealthy, can be identified, and can’t offer significant military resistance, there are good chances that its members will be exterminated and their assets confiscated. That was what happened to the people branded as “witches” in Europe during the 16th and 17th century in Europe. Another classic case was that of the Jews, a few centuries later.
At this point, considering that our society is surely under heavy stress, the question is: which subgroup could be the next target for extermination? I asked this question to the readers in a previous post of this series, but almost nobody could identify the right target. Now I think I can propose the answer:
The most likely target for the next extermination round are middle-class retirees.
Retirees satisfy all the requirements: They are identifiable, of course, they are old! They are often relatively wealthy and, more than that, they cost a lot of money in terms of health care. Finally, they can hardly put up serious military resistance. Exterminating the middle-class elders would be both easy and profitable.
Let’s make a few calculations. In the US, there are nowadays about 46 million retirees living on social security. The US spends about 7% of its GDP on pensions, that is, about 1.5 trillion dollars per year (about $30.000/person/year). That’s more than the about 1 trillion dollars that the US government spends for the military budget, bloated as it is.
Assuming that you could remove just 10% of the retirees, it would mean saving some 150 billion dollars per year. But, in practice, much more than that if you take into account the health care costs. For instance, summing nursing care facilities and home care for the elderly, we are talking of something close to 300 billion dollars per year, and that does not include hospitalization costs. The potential savings are truly huge: hundreds of billions of dollars. https://www.senecaeffect.com/2021/10/the-age-of-exterminations-iii-you.htmlCaitlin Johnstone, Israeli Snipers Routinely, Deliberately Shoot Palestinian Kids In The Head

But of the many things that stood out about working in a hospital in Gaza, one got to me: Nearly every day I was there, I saw a new young child who had been shot in the head or the chest, virtually all of whom went on to die. Thirteen in total.
“At the time, I assumed this had to be the work of a particularly sadistic soldier located nearby. But after returning home, I met an emergency medicine physician who had worked in a different hospital in Gaza two months before me. ‘I couldn’t believe the number of kids I saw shot in the head,’ I told him.

Every single day.’” https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/israeli-snipers-routinely-deliberatelyAs Israel Extends Its Genocide Into the West Bank, It Targets and Kills Children

With your leave I will present again some of the stories I posted yesterday, laying out Federal Government preparations to subdue the population of North Carolina (“Tarheels”) and kill some of them if it came to that, in order to carry out a land grab for critical mineral deposits of ultra-pure quartz, necessary for the highest density computer chips, and Lithium for batteries the DoD will be needing. There have been lots of stories of local relief efforts being blocked and sabotaged by federal personnel, but no actual relief being provided by any of them.
The US Military appears to get pre-justification to kill some crowds of Americans on US soil. Use of lethal force in a reasonably anticipated confrontation
What exactly qualifies as reasonable in a reasonably anticipated confrontation? DOD Directive 5240.01 effective September 27, 2024.
..Secretary of Defense Approval
(2) The decision to approve requests for these types of permissible assistance described in Paragraph 3.2. to law enforcement agencies and other civil authorities are reserved to the Secretary of Defense:
(c) Assistance in responding with assets with potential for lethality, or any situation in which it is reasonably foreseeable that providing the requested assistance may involve the use of force that is likely to result in lethal force, including death or serious bodily injury. It also includes all support to civilian law enforcement officials in situations where a confrontation between civilian law enforcement and civilian individuals or groups is reasonably anticipated. Such use of force must be in accordance with DoDD 5210.56, potentially as further restricted based on the specifics of the requested support. https://jessica5b3.substack.com/p/use-of-lethal-force-in-a-reasonablyKyle Young, ..Recently we saw all of that converging into a hurricane that Dane Wigington and others have pointed out was steered by Nexrad radar over the most lithium rich deposit in the US, Western North Carolina…

USN Ret. Admiral Cem Gurdinez, Israel’s Air Defense and the Weakness of the U.S. Navy. “Damage Control Project” of Commander of the U.S. Naval Forces
In June 2023, the American Congress approved the naval target of 381 ships. In addition, it is aimed to have 397 ships by 2053. However, today, in order to complete the 381 ship target by 2030, a 20% budget increase is needed, which is not possible under today’s debt stock burden.
Today, the backbone of American naval power is nuclear-powered attack submarines (SSN), other than nuclear aircraft carriers and ballistic missile submarines (SSBN).
However, today, nearly 40% of submarines are under repair and the delays in repair are enormous. If aircraft carriers operate in waters close to the continent – for example, in the South or East China Sea – they are likely to be hit by hypersonic and ballistic missiles. In short, the US is unprepared for a major power conflict which is developing.
If a conflict with China were to break out tomorrow, the American Navy would have very little chance of winning because it is not ready. The logistical difficulties of building and sustaining American naval power in the short and medium terms are incredible. If the problem of replenishing existing weapons and ammunition stocks is added to this, the seriousness of the situation becomes apparent.
According to former American Undersecretary of the Navy Seth Cropsey, if the US does not increase the production of the weapons it will need in the Indo-Pacific, especially hypersonic cruise and ballistic missiles and short-range anti-ship weapons, it will lose a war for Taiwan in weeks. In its current state, the US Navy cannot maintain its bases and allies in the Indo-Pacific Oceans and its transoceanic logistical support line.
The parameters of the USSR-USA balance in the Cold War and today’s US-China balance are extremely different. The USSR could not defeat the US because the American Navy’s enormous size of 600 ships confined the Soviets to the continent and weakened them. China, on the other hand, is far more advanced at sea than the US naval power today. China has the advantage in terms of both its geographical location, naval power and number of anti-ship missiles. The conditions are more in its favor than ever to bring this to a dynamic conclusion. The US is weakening its power in the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf because of Israel. China, on the other hand, will use every opportunity to protect and develop its own geopolitical interests, especially in Taiwan and the South China Sea, as long as the Israel-Iran crisis continues. https://www.globalresearch.ca/iran-israel-tension-weakness-american-navy/5869826It’s OK.

“No,” Starmer replied bluntly. “But it is a really serious point. Banning all sales would mean none for defensive purposes. None for defensive purposes on the anniversary of 7 October and days after a huge attack by Iran into Israel would be a wrong position for this government and I will not take it,” Starmer said. https://thecradle.co/articles/british-pm-declares-london-will-never-stop-selling-weapons-to-israel Has Iran Just Tested a Nuclear Bomb?

Secondly, a source in the Islamic republic said in a private conversation with an official close to Khamenei that:

“So the answer to your question is yes, we do support Israel launching these incursions to degrade Hizballah’s infrastructure so ultimately we can get a diplomatic resolution that allows 1701 to finally be fully implemented”.
Needless to say, the assertion that Israel is attacking “Hizbollah’s infrastructure” when it destroys hospitals and apartments is an insult to intelligence.

President Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are holding a crucial phone call Wednesday morning focused on Israel’s plans to strike back at Iran for the Oct.1st ballistic missile attack, which saw some 200 warheads launched, many of which hit targets on the ground including key airbases.
It marks the first call since Iran’s attack, and also the first between the leaders in two months, and comes as Washington has signaled it is deeply worried that a bigger regional war could break out if Israel’s retaliation goes too far.

John Helmer on Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov’s recent clarification:
The Russian history of end-of-war negotiations for the capitulation of Germany and for the World War II peace settlement requires it to be understood now: it was the Red Army’s defeat of the enemy on the battlefield all the way to Berlin which preceded and which was the precondition for the paper promises and pacts offered to Moscow by those allies whom Joseph Stalin understood to be permanent enemies of Russia — the United States, United Kingdom, and France.
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has just spelled this out in an especially timed essay published on October 2.
Those lessons are being repeated now because they apply with equal force to the end-of-war negotiations with the US in the process nicknamed Istanbul-II.
For Russian decision-makers in Moscow, and for the Russian people across the country, there can be no long-term security for the country without the military defeat of the enemy on the Ukrainian battlefield, capitulation of the Kiev regime, and withdrawal from Ukrainian territory of its US and NATO allies. https://johnhelmer.net/what-is-russia-deciding-for-terms-to-end-the-war-in-the-ukraine-gorilla-radio-explains/ BINGO!

The power of propaganda is immense. It is so strong especially because people don’t realize that they are embedded in it and the things that propaganda makes them do look like the most natural and obvious ones. It was Baudelaire who said, “the devil’s best trick is to convince people that he does not exist.”
So, here is a story of a triumph of propaganda: how it convinced most Italians in 1914-15 that it was a good idea to go to war against their neighbors, the Austrians in one of the greatest follies of history, what our ancestors called, rightly, “The Great War.”
It all started when, in July 1914, a Serbian madman shot an Austrian Archduke. That caused the Great Powers of the time to attack each other in a sort of large-scale domino game. Austria attacked Serbia, Germany attacked France, Russia attacked Austria, and more.
And Italy? It is a story poorly known outside Italy, but interesting for many reasons. Italy at that time was a nation of peasants, its economy was weak, and its military power limited. Sometimes, it was called the “proletarian nation,” in contrast with the Northern “plutocracies,” Britain and others. Italy was poor, but secure inside its borders: protected by the sea and by the Alps. No need to go to war against anyone. https://www.senecaeffect.com/2021/09/the-age-of-exterminations-ii-how-to.html Kyle Young, Waging “Weather Warfare” and “Plunder Capitalism” on the good folk of the US

ParticipantUgo Bardi, The Age of Exterminations (I): Who are the Typical Victims?
If you think of the story of the witch hunts of the 16th-17th century in Europe, you may be under the impression that the typical witch was an old hag living in a hut at the margins of the village, alone with a black cat.
But no, that wasn’t the case. Maybe this kind of marginal people were occasionally killed for being witches, but they were not the usual victims. In reality, witch hunting had a strong monetary component and it was often carried out with a view on making a profit on the confiscation of the assets of the victims. They were not poor and destitute women but, rather, members of the growing mercantile class in Europe.
The profit-making facet of witch hunting has been often ignored by historians, but it is being reappraised and highlighted in recent times, for instance by Johannes Dillinger (2021) and by Shmakov and Petrov (2018). Both articles are highly suggested and provide a remarkable wealth of data about the financial mechanism that led to witch hunts: in short, there was no (or very little) witch hunting where the government didn’t allow the assets of the victims to be confiscated. https://www.senecaeffect.com/2021/09/the-age-of-exterminations-who-will-be.htmlFacebook Gave CDC ‘Backdoor’ Access to Help Remove Millions of Social Media Posts

Israel has reportedly been dropping leaflets on the Jabalia refugee camp ordering people to leave, and then shooting anyone who tries to.

The substance of the Blinken-approved policy was starkly conveyed by Security Cabinet member Bezalel Smotrich, who later told the Israeli media: “We in the cabinet were promised at the outset that there would be monitoring, and that aid trucks hijacked by Hamas and its organizations [sic] would be bombed from the air, and the aid would be halted.”
State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel told Drop Site News: “The suggestion that anyone at the State Department signed off in any way on attacks on humanitarian workers or convoys is absurd. We have always been clear, including in the immediate aftermath of October 7, that Israel has the right to strike Hamas militants. Secretary Blinken has been equally clear that Israel needs to ensure that humanitarian aid is delivered to Gaza and that humanitarian workers inside Gaza are protected.” https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/blinken-approved-policy-bomb-aid-trucksHezbollah pounds numerous Israeli sites amid aggression on Lebanon

ParticipantIran earthquake sparks speculation of covert nuclear weapons test
The possibility that Iran carried out a nuclear test is being discussed at high levels in Tehran amid Israeli threats to bomb the Islamic Republic’s nuclear infrastructure
On 5 October 2024, a 4.5-magnitude seismic event occurred in Iran’s Semnan province, sparking speculation that Iran has tested a nuclear weapon for the first time.
Such a seismic event is typically the result of an earthquake, but speculation has arisen on social media suggesting the event was instead an underground nuclear test carried out by the Islamic Republic in response to Israeli threats to bomb Tehran’s nuclear energy and oil facilities.
According to Iranian sources speaking with The Cradle, the possibility that a nuclear test was indeed conducted is being discussed at high levels in Iran.
Syrian sources speaking with The Cradle in September predicted that Iran would seek to develop breakout nuclear weapons capability in response to Israel’s assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. https://thecradle.co/articles/iran-earthquake-sparks-speculation-of-covert-nuclear-weapons-testRon Paul: American Neocons Get Their Iran War As Congress Sleeps
Over the weekend, the Commander of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), General Michael Kurilla, arrived in Israel to “coordinate” with the Israeli military and plan a military strike against Iran. Think about that for a moment: one of the highest-ranking officers in the US military is planning a war in a foreign country against another foreign country which will be fueled by American weapons, American intelligence, and American tax dollars.
Did that foreign country – Iran – attack the United States or threaten Americans? No, it did not. What did Iran do to warrant a CENTCOM commander bringing the weight of the US military into play to plan a war – possibly WWIII? It retaliated against Israeli airstrikes including the assignation of a Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/ron-paul-american-neocons-get-their-iran-war-congress-sleepsIsrael Mulling Attacks On Iran Energy Sites Despite Biden Objections
According to the latest from Axios: “Netanyahu refuses to approve Defense Minister Yoav Galant’s trip to Washington planned for tonight until a he gets a phone call with President Biden and until the Israeli cabinet approves the response to Iran’s missile attack”, according to a source with knowledge of the details.
The New York Times reported Monday based on Israeli officials that a significant counter attack is still coming, and it is expected to target Iranian military sites. The fresh report also lists as likely targets Iranian intelligence sites and officials’ offices or headquarters. President Biden has warned against striking Iran’s nuclear sites, and even days ago backed off the idea of hitting energy and oil facilities. Thus a ‘debate’ has still been raging internally as both sides are said to be coordinating the response. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/biden-literally-bribing-israelis-us-taxpayer-funds-not-hit-iran-nuclear-sitesJim Kunstler: Like a Prayer “Whether it’s Facebook or Twitter or X or Instagram or TikTok, whatever they are, if they don’t moderate and monitor the content we lose total control.” Hillary Clinton

Sachs: Here’s the Truth — It Is the Lack of a Two-State Solution That Most Threatens Israel Israel rejects the two-state solution because it claims that a sovereign state of Palestine would profoundly endanger Israel’s national security. In fact, it is the lack of a two-state solution that endangers Israel. Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian lands, its continuing apartheid rule over millions of Palestinians, and its extreme violence to defend that rule, all put Israel’s survival in jeopardy, as Israel faces dire threats from global diplomatic isolation and the ongoing war, including the war’s massive economic, social, and financial costs…
..At the United Nations on September 27th, Netanyahu accused the Palestinian Authority, and specifically President Mahmoud Abbas, of waging “unremitting diplomatic warfare against Israel’s right to exist and against Israel’s right to defend itself.”
After Netanyahu’s speech, Ayman Safadi, Jordan’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, standing beside Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa replied to Netanyahu in a press conference:
“All of us in the Arab world here, want a peace in which Israel lives in peace and security, accepted, normalized with all Arab countries in the context of ending the occupation, withdrawing from Arab territory, allowing for the emergence of an independent, sovereign Palestinian state on the June 4, 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital.”
Minister Safadi was speaking on behalf of the 57 members of the Muslim-Arab committee, who are all willing “to guarantee Israel’s security” in the context of a two-state solution. Minister Safadi, alongside the Palestinian Prime Minister, articulated the region’s peace proposal, an alternative to Netanyahu’s endless wars. https://scheerpost.com/2024/10/07/jeffrey-d-sachs-heres-the-truth-it-is-the-lack-of-a-two-state-solution-that-most-threatens-israel/John Day
ParticipantA different chopper, even bigger: Video: Nat’l Guard helicopter destroys hurricane relief team’s gear, injures 3: Report
A disaster recovery team director recently claimed that a National Guard Chinook helicopter flew “way too low” to the ground near the team’s project in North Carolina, reportedly resulting in 3 employees being hospitalized and over $100,000 in damages. The report comes as the Biden-Harris administration is facing criticism over its response to Hurricane Helene.
In a now-deleted post on LinkedIn, Kory Roger Kappes, director of Large Loss – SERVPRO Disaster Recovery Team, said, “Welp… I’ve debated if I should share this or not. But Friday our team and man-camp took a huge hit. A National Guard chinook helicopter was landing next to our project, like the other 100 helicopters we’ve seen this week, and they decided to ‘buzz the tower’, if you will. Coming in way too low and destroying all of our tents, awnings, our lunch, and damaging multiple trucks, trailers, campers, and much more.”
Kappes claimed that the disaster recovery team had to send three of its employees to the hospital and that the team’s campers and gear sustained over $100,000 in damages.
“When confronting the Senior Officer in charge, we were basically told ‘oops, our bad, and see ya,’” Kappes wrote. “I asked for names and was told to kick rocks. All I had was a tail number from the aircraft.”
“Thankfully, my father whom is retired military, knew who to call immediately. Within 30 minutes the National Guard and the FAA had contacted me. And a public affairs officer stopped by our site later to apologize and give me the information to file a complaint and claim.” https://americanmilitarynews.com/2024/10/video-natl-guard-helicopter-destroys-hurricane-relief-teams-gear-injures-3-report/FEMA Helicopters Block Greenville Airport Runway, Banning Aid Deliveries to Desperate Locals
One witness on the ground described the scene: “Yesterday, they flew in over 30 planes with supplies for those in need. But today, FEMA flew in 10 helicopters and blocked the runway here at Greenville Downtown. They’ve taken over, and it’s outrageous.”
Video footage from the airport shows several FEMA helicopters parked on the runway, with no sign of movement or efforts to assist in transporting relief. “The helicopters are just sitting there, doing nothing. Meanwhile, thousands of pounds of supplies are sitting untouched,” said another frustrated volunteer who had been working to organize private aid efforts.
FEMA has reportedly taken over one of the hangars as well, further limiting operations and the ability of private pilots to continue their missions. “They’re halting the aid deliveries when every minute counts,” the volunteer continued. “This is about saving lives, not bureaucracy.” https://thepeoplesvoice.tv/fema-helicopters-block-greenville-airport-runway-banning-aid-deliveries-to-desperate-locals/Private Helicopters Deliver over 500,000 Pounds of Supplies to North Carolina

“The people of Swannanoa, Bat Cave and Chimney Rock are going to be here, and they’ll still be rebuilding their lives and trying to rebuild their homes and trying to figure out what’s next,” Smith said.
“There’s homes that are washed out, people have lost their lives. There’s a lot of people left with nothing, there’s a lot of displaced people. the big challenge now, moving forward, it’s not so much the rescue, it’s how do we find a place for the displaced families?” …

Kiev’s forces wanted to destroy the Kursk nuclear power plant, Sergey Naryshkin has said
British and American spies helped Ukraine develop plans for blowing up the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, which would have plunged Europe into another radiation nightmare, the head of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), Sergey Naryshkin, has said.
Ukrainian troops crossed into Russia’s Kursk Region in August, but were stopped short of the nuclear plant in Kurchatov. Speaking at a meeting of intelligence and security principals of post-Soviet states in Astana last week, Naryshkin revealed the West’s disturbing plan for the facility.
“According to intelligence obtained by the SVR, the planned terrorist attack included taking and mining the Kursk NPP,” he said, according to remarks made public on Monday.
”Had they been able to carry it out, Europe would have faced an environmental and humanitarian disaster comparable to Chernobyl,” Naryshkin added. https://swentr.site/russia/605375-kursk-nuclear-threat-svr/The CIA hasn’t seen any evidence that Iran is building a nuclear weapon, agency director William Burns told a security conference on Monday.

ParticipantBlackhawk Rotor Wash Assault https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/blackhawk-rotor-wash-assault
I’m not alone in thinking that we are seeing vindictive attacks by an outgoing political elite, “The Imperial Court”, if I might apply that label. This frustrated rage might be typified by Hillary Clinton’s assertions that “propagandists” need to be jailed, and that if social media won’t “moderate content”, then “we lose total control” as well as John Kerry’s frank explanation that “the first amendment stands as a major block to the ability to be able to hammer disinformation out of existence.” https://www.zerohedge.com/political/hillary-clinton-desperation-warns-well-lose-total-control-if-social-media-stops-censoring
This imperial court is used to deciding to kill lots of people to achieve desired objectives, and they are feeling very strongly about the objective of staying in power. They stand to go to court and prison, and to have things done to them, which they do to others. This feels Existential to them… I don’t think they will leave any power-cards unplayed. They control the military, covert-operations, and a lot of instrumental players at all levels of state and local government.
Civil-war is a scenario we have heard a lot about in recent years, but there need to be two groups willing to kill each other on a massive scale, and most people really don’t seem to want to go there. People are uncertain of what is real, and don’t want to get manipulated to their own detriment again.
The Owners who the Imperial Court serves are also in a tight-spot, which is getting tighter as the financial Ponzi schemes they have been running in the US, Europe and western global-finance are all getting thin on assets to hypothecate for leveraged-loans. That process has to keep expanding or collapse, as described in “BOE Needs World War Three” https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/boe-needs-world-war-three
The Central banks, regional banks and Too Big To Fail Banks in various jurisdictions are all directly threatened by a loss of faith shooting through the derivatives markets and causing all assets to be grabbed by somebody-somewhere, who holds a derivative option on them when the music stops. This will not be possible to unwind, because the derivative bets exceed the physical assets in value by some large multiplier of hundreds, thousands or more. World War Three Emergency Powers are desired at the top of the hierarchy to sort out all the competing claims on physical wealth, or the power-hierarchy could collapse. I’m personally ok with that option, but facing physical reality before the crash would be able to reduce the severity of the reset through practical negotiations, after determining the overall facts of physical economy, and the many assertions of finance. “Losses to notional wealth” would have to be “assigned” within a society through political process, which would tend to make the small-holders more whole, as it is their life-support, and to enforce largest losses on the largest financial “players” in order to preserve societal cohesion and function.
It’s like the “monkey trap” where the monkey can’t decide to let go of the sweet rice in the coconut with a hole that lets a hand out, but not a fist, so the monkey gets killed.Initial, short video: An unidentified Black Hawk military helicopter deliberately blasted a volunteer supply depot in North Carolina with rotor wash.
Rotor wash from Black Hawk helicopters is very well understood, and its destructive force has been repeatedly documented in multiple military actions abroad. In Mark Bowden’s book, Black Hawk Down, he relates how Black Hawks operating over Mogadishu frequently enraged the local residents by causing significant damage to their property, blasting debris into their eyes, sucking infants out of their mothers’ arms, and even ripping corrugated steel roofs off their homes. https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/blackhawk-helicopter-damages-supplyUpdate, longer video: Watch: Black Hawk Helo Wreaks Havoc On Civilian Hurricane Outpost
The pilots of what appears to be an unmarked Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter generated a massive downwash, also known as rotor wash, that sent tents and aid flying in all directions at a volunteer supply zone operated by private citizens in western North Carolina.
This action by the helicopter pilots is up for debate, with many on X believing this was an intentional act of sabotage by the federal government.
There are no official statements by local, state, or federal governments about the incident. Flight tracking data shows that the Black Hawk is military-owned.
That the Black Hawk approached and hovered directly over the volunteer supply zone certainly raises questions about the mission of this chopper; especially in light of the fact that many residents, officials, and private citizens point out the government’s apparent efforts to block or intercede in rescue efforts outside of FEMA’s control. https://www.zerohedge.com/military/did-govt-black-hawk-helio-sabotage-western-north-carolina-supply-zoneJohn Day
ParticipantAbruzzo told the Miami press on October 10, 2023: “I am proud to show solidarity with the people of Israel and make Palm Beach County the first county in the nation to increase its investment in Israel Bonds following their declaration of war against Hamas.” Six months later, Abruzzo attacked critics of Israel in the Democratic party as it began the presidential election campaign. “Do I hear, especially from the far-left wing of my Democratic party, concerns about investing in Israel? Yes. Are the public leaders in D.C. of the Democratic Party condemning support for Israel? Yes. . . But I would say to them, we’re not going to be deterred. They need to back off and we need to stand united with our greatest ally, Israel.”
At the same time Abruzzo has claimed: “everything I do financially is, down to the penny, putting personal feelings aside,” Abruzzo said. “None of my purchases was done for a political purpose whatsoever. It’s the dollars and cents and getting the most we can for taxpayers. It’s all economic driven.”

It helped me understand bureaucracies much better. The Theory of Civilization Behind Bismarck Brief
There has never been an immortal society. Over a decade, I developed Great Founder Theory to explain why. This unique and predictive theory underpins our analysis in every Bismarck Brief. Samo Burja https://brief.bismarckanalysis.com/p/the-theory-of-civilization-behind The “Financial Coup” That Seized America
In his warning, Johnson detailed the typical pattern when countries collapse – when they come in desperation to the IMF.
First, a small group of powerful elites takes over policy. This is typically the financial elite, or large companies when the country has them.
Because these elites know they’ll be bailed out, they take excessive risks in good times. An iron law of finance is that risk pays reward. Meaning if you know you’re going to get bailed out, you’d be a moron not to take on too much risk.
If every hand at the poker game is all-in, inevitably you lose. You pass your losses to the taxpayer and start over with fresh chips, courtesy of the suckers.
Johnson lays out his numbers: from 1973 to 1985, America’s financial sector never earned more than 16% of the domestic corporate product. But by the early 2000s, it was earning 41%.
It turned a chunk of these profits into lobbying, repealing Depression-era prudential regulations separating banking and investment banking. In other words, freeing banks to gamble with taxpayer-guaranteed funds.
Then it lobbied to raise leverage – meaning how much the financial sector could borrow. So it could make large gambles with a small amount of money – again, all taxpayer-guaranteed.
The end result was the 2008 crisis, where banks made trillions in risky loans to people with no income, no assets, and no credit. https://brownstone.org/articles/the-financial-coup-that-seized-america/IgG4 suppresses immune response: New German Study: All COVID mRNA Vaccinated Children Are at Increased Risk of Cancer

At the same time, Macron assured Netanyahu of France’s continued support and solidarity, “respect and friendship” between the two countries, and “the desire to understand each other.”
The day before, Macron called for an end to arms supplies to Israel, which are used to conduct military operations in the Gaza Strip, calling such a step a priority for resolving the situation in the region. https://sputnikglobe.com/20241006/macron-tells-netanyahu-war-in-gaza-lebanon-not-in-israels-interests-1120449939.html Ukrainian Frontline Military Commanders in Favour of Talks with Russia
