Subjects of Empire,
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. Update, longer video: Watch: Black Hawk Helo Wreaks Havoc On Civilian Hurricane Outpost
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/ 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.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.

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/
Local news reports that Savage Operations Center, a volunteer group organized by Adam Smith, is now running dozens of helicopters to deliver aid to residents trapped in the Appalachian mountains.
“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/

Iran 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-test

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-sleeps

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- sites

..I received notice late Sunday from an informant in commercial aviation, with connections to military aviation, that a massive deployment of aircraft is preparing logistics for a major operation set to go down in about a week, probably in the Middle East. I can’t guarantee you that it is for real, but it was a real warning message, at least, from a serious person, and you know that something could be up. . . some humdinger of an October Surprise, like a big fat world war.

..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/

The Israeli ground invasion of southern Lebanon continues to face stiff resistance along the border one week on, while the Israeli army has renewed its assault on northern Gaza, laying siege to Jabalia refugee camp for the sixth time since October 7. https://mondoweiss.net/2024/
Slaughter In Gaza And Lebanon As War With Iran Approaches
Israel appears to have begun its long-planned ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza, with the IDF dropping bombs, issuing evacuation orders for multiple hospitals, attacking civilians with sniper drones, and besieging civilian populations in order to force tens of thousands of people to either move south or die. Israel has reportedly been dropping leaflets on the Jabalia refugee camp ordering people to leave, and then shooting anyone who tries to.
Since the seventh of October last year Israel has committed roughly 100 October sevenths in Gaza; scores of American medical workers who volunteered in the enclave signed an open letter to president Biden estimating the real death toll from Israel’s onslaught at over 118,000. Israel has also committed about two October sevenths in Lebanon during that time.

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/

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/
