Repatriating The Sick ???

Here is an astounding claim related to the 2019-nCoV virus outbreak:

As foreign governments evacuated their citizens from China this week, the government of China said it was arranging chartered flights to bring Wuhan residents who were overseas back to the epicenter of the outbreak.

Citing the “practical difficulties recently encountered” by residents abroad, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Friday that evacuations would begin as soon as possible.

The decision to facilitate people’s return came after Wuhan’s mayor revealed that five million people had left the city last week ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday, before travel restrictions were enforced.

You can read the rest @
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/31/world/asia/coronavirus-china.html

Is it plausible that ANY of these people would want to return to the source of the outbreak? I sure would not. By the way, it would take over 10,000 flights to get them all back by air. Not a realistic scenario.

And how many of these FIVE MILLION symptom-less persons carried the virus to the rest of the world? We should know in the next week or two, and hopefully the number is low.

Here is my take - Experts have predicted we will experience a pandemic sooner or later, and that it will be BAD. Yet obviously no one is really prepared for such a thing. The US spends $1 trillion per year on "security" (military, intelligence, preparedness, etc.), yet we're getting NOTHING from that expenditure ... other than guaranteeing the rich will stay rich and even get richer.

Not a wise investment, if you ask me.

Is This The Real Reason Assange Is In Jail ???

Please take a look at this assessment of some FBI documents relating to the murder (yes, murder) of Seth Rich:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52923.htm

In my view, not only is the FBI complicit in the cover-up of Hillary Clinton's espionage, they also may be complicit in the cover-up of Seth Rich's murder.

And should that be the case, it might also explain why no one bothered to examine either the DNC servers or Hillary's private servers. Both sets should have been seized and thoroughly examined by a third party.

Here's my take - Had Assange been given free reign, as is the right of any journalist (in fact, as is the right of any private citizen), he would have been able to prove that Rich was the source of the DNC leak (NOT hack) - an event which led to his murder. In short, this entire Russiagate house of cards would have come tumbling down, and the eventual impeachment of Trump along with it.

And if Rich WAS murdered because of what he found and what he did, then someone in the DNC hierarchy (e.g., Debbie W-S or Hillary) was at the very least an accomplice in his murder.

Why has no one been indicted, let alone punished?

And why do we continue to live in a country which clearly tolerates murder as a political tool?

Why Flynn ???

Here is a good discussion of why the FBI engineered the ouster of LTG Michael Flynn:

We now know that, before Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2017, the FBI had the ouster of Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, the President’s National Security Adviser, in its sights. By February 13th, Flynn was out the door.

Think about it. Why was Flynn’s removal of the utmost importance to the FBI, more vital than removal of any other cabinet officer like the Pentagon or State Department.  So crucial was it that they created a specific strategy willing to embrace prosecutorial misconduct and agency malfeasance to take Flynn down. Prosecutorial misdeeds are nothing new to the FBI as they have a well founded history of corruption over the years with its warts now publicly displayed.

It does not take a poli sci major to figure out that Flynn’s immediate removal from the Administration was essential to undermining Trump’s entire foreign policy initiatives including no new interventionist wars, peace with Russia and US withdrawal from Syria and Afghanistan.  In retrospect, the entire fraudulent Russiagate conspiracy makes sense when viewed from the perspective of an effort to rein in Trump’s foreign policy goals of which Flynn would have been a necessary, integral part.

https://www.globalresearch.ca/how-fbi-sabotaged-trump-foreign-policy/5702275

It seems rather bizarre that Trump is being impeached for exactly the same crap the Obama administration was conducting against him. How stupid can we be?

Do we want peace or not? And does it even matter if the Deep State can get away with stuff like this? This ain't no democracy, this ain't no republic; this is a military-industrial-information complex dictatorship.

No One Is Above The Law ???

There is at least one person who thinks she is above the law:

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/no-one-above-law-hillary-clinton-refuses-be-served-tulsi-gabbard-lawsuit-twice

If you think Trump is bad, just wait until this monster gets back into the White House.

National Climate Bank

Here is pork barrel legislation by another name:

https://www.technocracy.news/democrats-push-national-climate-bank-to-further-green-new-deal/

We could have achieved the same thing free of charge through what used to be called "regulation". But instead we allowed corporations to regulate themselves, which they took as a green light to do whatever they want.

If approved, this program will no doubt dole out LOTS of taxpayers dollars. Whether We the People will benefit remains to be seen.

My suggestion? Let these bozos PROVE their projects are beneficial BEFORE giving them any money. Is that too much to ask?

Here is discussion of a related issue:

https://techcrunch.com/2011/10/04/why-did-solyndra-fail-so-spectacularly/

Here's Why It Will Come To US

Here is what I consider to be a rather bizarre report from Boston:

https://www.wcvb.com/article/passenger-on-flight-from-beijing-medically-evaluated-at-logan-airport-boston-emergency-medical-services-says/30706447#

Note well this passage:

Logan International is one of 20 U.S. airports targeted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to begin screening for the coronavirus. However, Massport said it still has not been contacted by the CDC in order to start the screening process at Logan.

Dear CDC, WHO, DHS, FEMA, etc. - Please get your damn act together before this thing really takes off.

Stores ALREADY are out of face masks, and the general population is woefully unprepared for what may happen.

The Four Horsemen

As I have previously written, the so-called Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse represent pestilence, war, death, and famine.

The Wuhan virus represents pestilence, and no one can accurately predict how bad it may get.

We're ALWAYS on the verge of another war, only this time a big one may go nuclear.

Many parts of the world are on the edge of famine. Here is one example:

http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/a-plague-of-billions-of-locusts-threatens-to-create-a-horrific-end-times-famine-all-over-africa

And all three above have great potential to cause loss of life.

One can argue that such things have always been with us, but today we have the ability to either control them ... or to allow our technology and interconnectedness to make them FAR worse than in the past.

And what are our "leaders" doing? Fiddling around while the sparks which may destroy Rome are flying everywhere.

Do you feel well served by the clowns in DC? I don't.

Say Goodbye To Meat

According to reports like this one, humans soon will not be able to eat meat:

https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/2020-01-28-crickets-algae-lab-grown-meat-future-of-protein.html

Instead of continuing to procreate and thereby limit our choices, why don't we take measures to voluntarily reduce the human population? Or are we going to wait until literal starvation forces us to change?

Deal Of The Century ???

Trump's deal (or is it Jared Kushner's deal?) isn't going to solve anything:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52913.htm

Here are some other examples of deals which didn't turn out well:

• Treaty of New Echota, 1835
• General Act of the Conference of Berlin, 1885
• Treaty of Versailles, 1919
• The decision to allow France to reclaim Vietnam after WWII, 1945

You can read about some of them here:

https://foreignpolicy.com/2015/08/25/the-5-worst-treaties-the-united-states-ever-signed/

Deals made without consulting everyone affected are BAD DEALS. Trump's will be no different.

Of course, that won't stop the US and Israel from starving and killing more people in an effort to enforce this one.

The War On Common Sense

It would stand to reason that the Wuhan virus is being spread in its early stages by people from the region.

However, the PC police think it's xenophobic to recognize such a fact:

https://summit.news/2020/01/28/uk-schools-warned-to-watch-out-for-xenophobia-as-coronavirus-spreads/

In this instance, being PC might lead to your death. Do you think that's a reasonable way to approach this problem? What's more important to you - not hurting someone's feelings, or surviving the looming pandemic?

Yes I'm simplifying things, but life-and-death decisions often are quite simple.

Some Helpful Pandemic Measures ???

Here are some possibly helpful measures from Daisy Luther, the organic prepper:

https://www.theorganicprepper.com/what-i-bought-to-prep-for-a-wuhan-coronavirus-lockdown/

https://www.theorganicprepper.com/personal-protection-equipment-and-masks/

And no, I don't think forsythia will help.

China's Bat Man

Here is the rundown on someone who may be involved in the Wuhan virus outbreak:

https://www.zerohedge.com/health/man-behind-global-coronavirus-pandemic

The summary at the end is quite revealing:

1. One of China's top virology and immunology experts was and still works at China's top-rated biohazard lab, the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which some have affectionately called the real Umbrella Corp.
2. Since 2009, Peng has been the leading Chinese scientist researching the immune mechanism of bats carrying and transmitting lethal viruses in the world.
3. His primary field of study is researching how and why bats can be infected with some of the most nightmarish viruses in the world including Ebola, SARS and Coronavirus, and not get sick.
4. He was genetically engineering various immune pathways (such as the STING pathway in bats) to make the bats more or less susceptible to infection, in the process potentially creating a highly resistant mutant superbug.
5. As part of his studies, Peng also researched mutant Coronavirus strains that overcame the natural immunity of some bats; these are "superbug" Coronavirus strains, which are not resistant to any natural immune pathway, and now appear to be out in the wild.
6. As of mid-November, his lab was actively hiring inexperienced post-docs to help conduct his research into super-Coronaviruses and bat infections.
7. Peng's work on virology and bat immunology has received support from the National "You Qing" Fund, the pilot project of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the major project of the Ministry of Science and Technology.

If this means the new "superbugs" can escape from a BSL-4 facility, then we are truly screwed. This implies NOTHING can stop them.

Prepping Your Home For Pandemic

Here is advice concerning how to make your home ready for a pandemic:

https://www.thesimpleprepper.com/survival/first-aid/how-to-prepare-your-home-for-a-pandemic/

Granted, most people don't have this stuff and it's probably too late to assemble it. But some may want to try.

By the way, there are now suspected cases of Wuhan virus only 50 miles from my home, and they may have traveled even closer to me on their journey.

This thing probably is going to explode before the government wakes up.

Do you remember when I wrote this?

https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2019/11/a-failure-of-intelligence.html

Maybe this looming pandemic is what the "impeachment" is meant to distract us from. By the time we wake up and attempt to restore a functioning government, a whole lot of us could be dead.

Thanks, Obama ad-Dajjal.

Thanks, Hillary.

Thanks, Nancy.

Thanks, Valerie.

Thanks, all the monsters of Davos.

Oh ... you think Rep. Schiff dreamed this up on his own? R-i-g-h-t ...

Partners In Crime ???

The leaders of the USA and Israel are meeting today while one of them has been impeached and the other has been indicted:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/netanyanu-says-withdrawing-bid-parliamentary-082225509.html

And why are they meeting? Is it to keep both in office and out of jail?

Frankly I think it's cynical for them to be using the Palestinians as part of their "deal making" spree. I seriously question whether EITHER of them is doing what G-d wants them to do.

What do you think?

Just remember - Antichrist comes before Second Coming. So who and where is he?

And who and where are the "four horsemen of the apocalypse"? Here are some suggestions:

http://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2016/09/the-four-horsemen-of-2016-and-beyond.html

Keep in mind that both Hillary and pestilence (in the form of the Wuhan virus) are right on our doorstep.

How Much Do We Love Animals ???

Apparently we love animals more than we love Christians:

https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/15483/animal-cruelty-beheaded-christians

In a way this makes sense. True Christians know the beast which rises up out of the sea is going to kill them:

And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

Revelation 13:7 KJV

... while wise people know we need more animals on this planet other than ourselves to survive.

A true win-win situation, in both the spiritual and corporeal realms.

Changing History

"History is more or less bunk," said Henry Ford.

Here, perhaps, is an example of what he meant:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52909.htm

Hitler never would have risen to the heights of power he achieved without the enthusiastic support of banks and corporations in the US and UK.

And the death camp at Auschwitz might not even have existed without the help of the Bush family:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar

Now we want to forget all that and blame WWII on the Russians. What a load of crap !!!

If it's that easy to ignore the facts, then all versions of history ought to be suspect.

By the way, Ford was a fan of Nazi Germany, but no doubt the tractor factories he built in the Soviet Union contributed to their success in driving the German armies out of Russia. When individuals and countries influence both sides of a conflict, who should get the credit and the blame?

Realistically, it is the US who should get the blame for starting WWII, and the Russians who should get the credit for ending it.

Mortality Rate 15%

Early results indicate the Wuhan virus infects 83% of those exposed and has a mortality rate of 15%:

https://www.naturalnews.com/2020-01-25-coronavirus-hits-15-fatality-rate-83-infection-rate.html

Time to stock up on masks and other supplies:

https://www.theorganicprepper.com/personal-protection-equipment-and-masks/

Or you could just wait until it's too late.

Starving The Poor

Food stamp allotments in the US will soon be cut:

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/25/us/politics/trumps-food-stamp-cuts.html

But there always will be money for the military and for regime change:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52904.htm

It should be obvious that America's priority is to destroy anyone who gets in the way of its world domination, while ignoring the needs of its own people.

How sick is that?

Ronald Reagan used to claim that a rising tide lifts all boats. In reality it lifts the rich while drowning the rest of us:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52908.htm

How Democracies Die

Here is a discussion of a new book which I'm in no hurry to read:

https://www.npr.org/2018/01/22/579670528/how-democracies-die-authors-say-trump-is-a-symptom-of-deeper-problems

Although this 'Fresh Air' discussion is based in part on fact, it is way off the mark when it comes to the lessons we should learn.

For at least the past 70+ years, democracies around the world have died (been killed off, in fact) because of the actions of the government of the USA and its agencies - especially the CIA. As William Blum stated in his 1995 book Killing Hope, the prime focus of US foreign and military policy has been to destroy democracies and intentionally kill the hopes of peoples everywhere who wanted nothing more than to control their own lives and destinies.

To turn that history back on the US (which is what the deep state is now doing) and somehow blame it on Trump is garbage. Yes, the chickens have come home to roost, but The Donald has little to do with it - and it won't stop when he is gone.

Democracy and a republican form of government is dead in the US.

Woe Unto The Cancer Patient

Here is one man's diary of how modern medicine assisted in his impending untimely death:

http://professorconfess.blogspot.com/2020/01/my-cancer-storyhow-modern-medicine.html

I hope I never follow in his footsteps, but I have heard that 50% of US males will experience one form or another of cancer in their lives.

Modern Parenting Is Fubar

According to this study, the average parent spends less than five hours per week face-to-face with their children:

https://www.studyfinds.org/modern-family-average-parent-spends-just-5-hours-face-to-face-with-their-kids-per-week/

That means your kids are being raised by their friends, the Internet, Hollywood, video games, teachers who sponsor "drag queen storytime", and assorted spirits, devils, and demons.

And you wonder why many of them are AFU ???

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ???

Perspectives On The Wuhan Virus

Here are some facts and perspectives on Disease X (i.e., the Wuhan virus). The links following each statement contain a wealth of information.

(1) Here are the main symptoms:

https://www.businessinsider.com/china-virus-everything-we-know-deadly-2019-ncov-wuhan-spread-2020-1#its-pneumonia-like-symptoms-include-fever-and-difficulty-breathing-2

(2) But people can spread the disease BEFORE they show any symptoms:

https://www.cnn.com/asia/live-news/coronavirus-outbreak-hnk-intl-01-26-20/index.html

(3) This outbreak is scaring the hell out of some scientists:

"I’ve seen it all: bird flu, SARS, influenza A, swine fever and the rest. But the Wuhan pneumonia makes me feel extremely powerless.
"Most of the past epidemics were controllable, but this time, I’m petrified."

https://www.zerohedge.com/health/time-im-petrified-virologist-who-helped-discover-sars-offers-chilling-take-coronavirus

(4) And here is convincing discussion the outbreak may have resulted from Chinese bioweapons research:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/did-china-steal-coronavirus-canada-and-weaponize-it

(5) If you are a student of the seven seals of the Book of Revelation, you should know the "first horseman of the apocalypse" (the white horse) is Apollo, the Greco-Roman god of health and pestilence:

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

Revelation 6:1-2 KJV

Once again, I recommend that you rewatch the movie Contagion. I think it gives a convincing picture of what a global outbreak would be like.

Good luck and good health to you and yours.

China Is World's Biggest Trading Partner

Here is a description of how China surpassed the US as the world's biggest trading partner:

https://www.visualcapitalist.com/china-u-s-worlds-trading-partner/

Note well this shift in world trade occurred AFTER the 9/11 fiasco. In my view, the so-called "war on terror" and the simultaneous ravaging of our economy by big banks and Wall Street are the major reasons the world does not want anything to do with us any more.

And I would argue that both of those factors were heavily influenced by our focus on the Middle East, our ill-conceived hatred of Islam, and our belief that every problem can be solved using coercion and violence. The rest of the world is not stupid. They can see what we have become, and they've had enough.

And this is not a Trump issue. If you listened to Rep. Schiff, you should know the US deep state is hell-bent on starting a major war with Iran, Russia, and China, and no one outside the US and Israel wants that to happen.

R0 Between 3.6 and 4.0

Disease X appears to be a nasty one:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/uk-researcher-predicts-over-250000-people-china-will-have-coronavirus-ten-days

I think I'll watch the Contagion movie again before it's too late.

Update 1-25-2020

If this video is genuine, things aren't going well in China:

https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/world-news/everyone-infected-nurse-corpse-strewn-21353270

The "open borders" enthusiasts are claiming that quarantines don't work - the bugs will get out somehow. That may be true, but that's not the real issue for us.

There is NOTHING in Southeast Asia which is ESSENTIAL for people in the US to exist and thrive. We could exist and thrive even if ALL TRAFFIC between there and here was suspended. What's more important to you, the "right" of unrestricted travel and the flow of goods and services, or the need to take all measures to be protected from a fatal disease?

What do you think?

Crybaby Troops ???

Here is a tally of the number of US troops injured in counter strikes following the killing of an Iranian general:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/pentagon-34-us-troops-had-174034411.html

First of all, thank you for your service.

Second, when you signed up you did realize that military service involves the risk of injury or death, right?

Third, the Iranians did warn in advance of the attacks so why were you injured in the first place?

And finally, did the shoddy huts built for you by Dick Cheney's former company provide any protection from the blasts? I guess not.

In all fairness, I'll get excited about this when we stop murdering civilians everywhere we go. I served, I was injured, but I don't whine about it every day. I think about it, but I seldom whine ... and never in public in a manner which discredits my C-in-C.

These Pentagon clowns should keep their mouths shut. If they had their way, we'd be deep in real battle with the Russians, Chinese, and Iranians, and our sons and daughters would be coming home in pieces by the tens of thousands.

Is Disease X A Bioweapon ???

Now here's a scary thought - the new disease coming out of China may be a weaponized virus:

https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/real-umbrella-corp-wuhan-ultra-biohazard-lab-was-studying-worlds-most-dangerous-pathogens

There are plenty of labs around the world studying such pathogens. Thinking we can keep them safely bottled up is a fantasy. As Dr. Ian Malcolm observed in Jurassic Park, "life, uh … finds a way."

Bugs gotta eat, too.

Who Will Win AI Race ???

Here is a familiar theme:

Whoever Wins The AI Race Will Rule The World

You can read all about it @
https://www.technocracy.news/brookings-whoever-wins-the-ai-race-will-rule-the-world/

I would argue that the winner will be the super artificial intelligence this race is going to produce, and it WILL rule the world. The loser will be all of humanity, including the people who will have created the AI. It will crush them like a bug. Any human who thinks they can control it is a fool.

I consider this "race" to be the dumbest thing since the Manhattan Project, another scientific and technical "achievement" which NEVER should have been allowed to proceed.

Deal Of The Century ???

Apparently Israel is about to get another gift from the USA:

https://www.jpost.com/Middle-East/Deal-of-the-Century-Netanyahu-just-got-the-gift-of-the-century-615199

But one has to ask, is this what the "impeachment" is all about - crippling Trump so this is all he has left? I would not be surprised. We're so wrapped up in the Middle East it's almost impossible to separate the US government from what's going on over there.

What MAGA ???

According to this study, 44 percent of working Americans don't make squat:

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/52891.htm

I would hardly call that "great", would you?

What's Propping Up The World's Economy ???

If you guessed criminal activity (e.g., money laundering), you would be right:

https://www.activistpost.com/2020/01/hsbc-whistleblower-interview-world-economy-would-collapse-if-banks-stopped-laundering-money.html

Our government, military, banking systems, and corporations are vast criminal enterprises. And when they all come crashing down, who will be held responsible? Watch them try to pin it all on us - We the People.

Goodbye To Sovereignty

The President of France has been dissed by the Israelis:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/go-outside-irate-president-macron-filmed-yelling-israeli-police-jerusalem-church

Dear Emmanuel - As you may have noticed, the Israelis have no respect for you, your name, or your nation.

Dear World - Israel respect NO ONE's sovereignty. They believe Jerusalem belongs to them alone. If you think otherwise, you are a fool. If you don't like this state of affairs, then do something about it.

Is This Justice ???

Inmates have been dying in droves at Mississippi's Parchman prison. Here is what they say about one of the latest to kill himself:

Lee pleaded guilty to capital murder and was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole in 2014 after a car he was a passenger in ran over a police captain, the DOC said.

You can read the rest @
https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/22/us/mississippi-parchman-inmate-death-hanging/index.html

So you get LIFE in prison just for being a PASSENGER in the car? I can only imagine what was done to get him to cop that plea.

I've been to Mississippi. I'm not going back.

College Degrees Of The Rich

Here is a listing of the college degrees earned by the richest people in the world:

https://www.zerohedge.com/personal-finance/college-degree-richest-person-every-country

Obviously, there is more to life than money, but you wouldn't guess that by looking at these people.

Massive Theft At The Pentagon ???

Here is an expose of the astonishing accounting disaster over at the Pentagon:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/pentagon-racks-up-dollar35-trillion-in-accounting-changes-in-a-year/ar-BBZcVdy

$35 trillion in one year? WTF ???

Isn't it time we also audited the Federal Reserve System? Between them and the military, we might be able to discover what the hell really happened to the US economy.

Or are you satisfied with doing nothing while these thieves continue to rob us blind?

Defending Torture

Here is a report about the people who designed the CIA's "enhanced interrogation techniques":

https://theintercept.com/2020/01/21/911-trial-cia-torture-guantanamo/

One still has to ask ... since there is little or no credible evidence that the official story of 9/11 is actually true in any sense, how could the torture of these people POSSIBLY be justified?

Yes I hear your objections, but it boils down to your definition of "credible". The official stories of what happened to WTC1, WTC2, WTC7, and the Pentagon just are not credible.

Period.

War By Sanction

Here is a great discussion by Philip Giraldi:

https://www.unz.com/pgiraldi/a-new-definition-of-warfare/

We continue to wage undeclared war via sanctions on people who will not bend to our will.

Are you proud that we starve children to death to achieve the political and economic goals of the Deep State? I certainly am not.

Is War Fever Christian ???

Here is a good discussion of the war fever gripping many US "Christians":

https://russian-faith.com/church-politics/christian-war-fever-n1082

Here is something I wrote in 2013 which still applies today:

The supreme irony in this millennial aspect of the cults is that they almost universally identify the villain in their mythology (i.e., the wicked people God will destroy for the benefit of the worthy) to be white European colonizers (e.g., Christian missionaries and their military accomplices). An honest assessment of what Christian missionaries and crusaders have done over the centuries confirms that this is the role they actually played in all such situations; i.e., the role of the wicked, the fat takers, and those who have destroyed the earth.

Thus, at the heart of their religion and secular beliefs, Christian Zionists, other Christian evangelicals, and members of the Tea Party are actually praying that God will cast them into Hell when Jesus returns at the end of the age to restore the earth and rule it with a rod of iron.

You can read the rest @
https://dissidentvoice.org/2013/04/america-the-cargo-cult/

Ironic, no?

Don't listen to these guys. Their distortion of the Bible's message is breathtaking.

The War On Real Journalists

And so it continues, now in Brazil:

https://www.activistpost.com/2020/01/the-empires-war-on-oppositional-journalism-continues-to-escalate.html

Who really decides what we get to hear, read, and/or say?

And why do politicians and national security apparatchiks deserve privacy while the rest of us do not?

Is Pope Francis A Marxist ???

Here is a rather savage critique of Pope Francis:

https://antoniusaquinas.com/2020/01/21/pope-francis-calls-marxist-economic-summit/

Couldn't it be said that Jesus Christ is a socialist, communist, or quasi-Marxist savior? I sincerely doubt He approves of how the few are hoarding the earth's wealth for themselves at the expense of the many.

The pope is doing what a pope is supposed to do. Meanwhile the monsters of Davos are doing the devil's work. Whom would YOU rather follow?

Why Aren't We Like France ???

Here is a description of the French popular uprising:

The current ongoing social unrest in France appears to pit a majority of working people against President Emmanuel Macron. But since Macron is merely a technocratic tool of global financial governance, the conflict is essentially an uprising against policies that put the avaricious demands of financial markets ahead of the needs of the people. This basic conflict is at the root of the weekly demonstrations of Yellow Vest protesters who have been demonstrating every Saturday for well over a year, despite brutal police repression. Now trade unionists, public sector workers and Yellow Vests demonstrate together, as partial work stoppages continue to perturb public transportation.

You can read the rest @
https://www.unz.com/article/french-popular-uprising-revolution-or-frozen-conflict/

We in the US are being crushed by the same "policies that put the avaricious demands of financial markets ahead of the needs of the people".

So where is OUR uprising? It's truly amazing things are so peaceful here, considering that we're accused of having too many weapons for our own good. I think this proves one of the things Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence:

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed."

But what happens when they become insufferable? Sadly, I think the monsters of Davos intend to teach us a lesson so we'll think that even then we have no recourse except to obey their ever-increasing commands.

The Same Old Excuse

The PM of Israel urges everyone to rise up against the ICC:

https://www.jpost.com/Breaking-News/Netantyahu-Jews-will-never-ever-again-be-defenseless-614783

I get the 'right to self defense' argument, but there's a point at which exercising such a right violates international law. And that appears to be the point we have reached.

In your opinion, who has been the most adamant proponent of abolishing the ICC - the innocent or the guilty? Need I say more?

Epistemological Warfare - Say What ???

Here is some wisdom from Matthew Ehret:

Neoconservative founding fathers such as Leo Strauss, Sir Henry Kissinger and Sir Bernard Lewis absolutely never believed in the ideologies their cultish golems like Bolton, Cheney or Kristol have adhered to so religiously. Their belief was only that the sum-of-parts called humanity must ultimately be governed by a Hobbesian Leviathan (aka: a new globalized Roman Empire), and that Leviathan could only be created in response to an intolerably painful period of chaos which their twisted tooth fairies would usher into this world.

This may be what the monsters of Davos want - riches for them, but an intolerably painful period of chaos for the rest of us.

Disease X Is At Our Doorstep

The WHO is meeting to determine what to do about the new virus from China:

https://www.scmp.com/news/world/europe/article/3046924/china-coronavirus-who-hold-emergency-meeting-sars-virus-spreads

I can tell you what they're NOT going to do - prevent its spread. It's "open borders" season for people, drugs, and diseases.

The ONLY way to prevent the spread of Disease X is STRICT quarantine, as in NO ENTRY FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING, and that's not going to happen.

Start thinking Spanish Flu, because we're going to encounter something that disastrous sooner or later. And it may already be at our doorstep.

And keep in mind how the US responded to hurricanes and other recent natural disasters. FEMA and HS are clueless and impotent.

The Killers Among Us

I have watched the nonsense surrounding the killing of Iranian General Soleimani with a growing sense of alarm. Let's rethink this, shall we?

Start by reading Jeremy Schahill's Dirty Wars, or by watching the movie. What you will discover is that the USA has made murder its chief form of "warfare". And this started LONG before Trump came into the picture.

Why are we forgiving the murders committed by Admiral McRaven's JSOC under the direction of Barack Obama ad-Dajjal? Why are we CELEBRATING some of them (e.g., the alleged killing of Osama bin Laden)?

Had Obama ad-Dajjal killed Soleimani I think Americans would be dancing in the streets and singing Obama's praises to high heaven, just like they did when he allegedly killed bin Laden.

America LOVES murderers, but apparently only those with good PR.

Chaos In Sweden

I have been watching Swedish crime dramas (The Bridge, Beck, etc.), so I take note when Sweden is in the news. And I keep seeing reports like this one:

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/sweden-has-lost-control-after-bombings-spike-60-2019-says-mp

Recall that when Trump made a related comment, the MSM ridiculed him and seemingly couldn't figure out what he meant. Shame on them.

The human turmoil on our planet has more to do with the machinations of the powers that be than it does with climate change or the alleged "necessity" for regime change. How much longer are we going to tolerate this crap?

Stop destroying nation states ... and much of this turmoil will cease.

Dad Vs. Coyote - Dad Wins

A man in New Hampshire suffocated a coyote who attacked his toddler son:

https://nypost.com/2020/01/20/hero-dad-strangles-coyote-after-it-attacks-his-toddler/

I applaud this man; any parent would have done the same for their children.

But let's look at the bigger picture. For a coyote to be so bold, it must have been starving or perhaps its children were starving. Human encroachment has destroyed their habitat and exterminated the game they hunt. So what are THEY supposed to do to feed themselves?

We are digging our own graves. Unless we restore balance to this planet (e.g., by making room for other species which form the overall web of life on the earth), we don't have much of a future, either.

Is Mayor Pete Confused ???

According to Mayor Pete, the US economy needs more migrants to keep functioning:

https://usafeatures.news/2020/01/20/buttigieg-says-u-s-economy-needed-11-million-illegal-immigrants-to-continue-functioning/

No doubt he would like to be one of the next keynote speakers at Davos.

The chief reason we allegedly "need" more migrants is that US citizens refuse to work for  slave labor wages doing jobs with no benefits. So corporations import desperate people from abroad who will do ANYTHING just to stay alive. If this is not a form of human trafficking, then we need to reconsider the definition of that term.

Capitalism and globalism have DESTROYED the US economy and the economies of many nations around the globe. "Open borders" is NOT a solution - it's the next step in our long downward slide toward extinction.

DO NOT ELECT THIS CLOWN !!! 

Greta, Go Home

Here is some constructive criticism of Greta Thunberg from "The Automatic Earth" blog:

https://www.theautomaticearth.com/2020/01/go-home-greta/

I agree with most of what he says. Greta, you're just their tool.

The purpose of the World Economic Forum at Davos is to make rich people richer. Any related benefit to the masses is either accidental or a minor byproduct of their boundless lust to enrich themselves.

Should you disagree, please show me your proof.

A Very Stable Genius

Here are some observations from Larry Johnson:

Trump's a bad, crazy, deranged individual because he did not want to continue the failed policies of the last 20 years. That's the complaint of [the] Deep Staters in a nutshell. And Donald Trump, unlike the serpentine politicians that infest Washington, did not speak praise to the faces of these clowns and then backstab them in the press and to other members of his Administration. Nope. He called them out to their face. Can't have that. Telling people off to their faces is just so uncouth. Always better, according to the Swamp creatures, to say one thing to a person's face and then trash the hell out of them when they are not around.

Not only that, recall what "the best and the brightest" have done to our country - nearly bankrupted us while refusing to pass a balanced budget which benefited We the People.

Would it have been THAT difficult to give Trump's ideas a chance? Obviously the powers that be had something else in mind.

Obscene Wealth, Obscene Poverty

The ultra rich are obscenely rich:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-davos-meeting-inequality-idUSKBN1ZJ00B

Meanwhile, millions of Americans live in poverty:

https://youtu.be/JHDkALRz5Rk

And people in 20 countries around the world make less than $500 per month:

https://www.worlddata.info/average-income.php

These are the wages of capitalism and the Chicago school of economics.

Does anyone really believe that the only way to motivate people in life is to starve them if they don't work hard enough?

What Are The Drones Targeting ???

If you recall, I recently questioned what those drones are doing over Colorado and Nebraska:

https://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2020/01/drones-in-our-skies.html

Well, they're also been spotted over Wyoming, and other people are starting to ask the same questions I did:

https://www.thedailybeast.com/are-the-mystery-colorado-drone-swarms-lingering-near-nuclear-missile-silos

How can it be that the US military, our intelligence (sic) agencies, and federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies don't have a clue about what is going on here? Are these people brain dead, or are they just lying to us again?

What's the point of spending billions of dollars on "Homeland Security (sic)" if someone can openly spy on such sensitive facilities without anyone realizing just how dangerous such surveillance might be?

Geez Louise !!!

Playbook For Poisoning The Earth

If you have time, you should read this discussion of how insecticides are poisoning our planet and killing off many different species:

https://theintercept.com/2020/01/18/bees-insecticides-pesticides-neonicotinoids-bayer-monsanto-syngenta/

Then ask yourself this question - whom do we want to save, living things (including ourselves) or the living dead (i.e., corporations)?

Sooner or later we're going to have to change the way we grow and harvest food. Don't you think it would be better to do it NOW instead of waiting until we experience widespread famine?
