Mostly Controlling the Words

 Linguistically Astute,


  Celia Farber, You Need Only Read One Article About The Liberty: James Perloff's
It Solves The Entire "Mystery," And It Reveals A Blueprint For How and Why Nothing "Makes Sense" When It Comes To US-Israeli Relations
  “The Liberty’s survivors maintain a website, www.gtr5.com , from which I have drawn most of this information, and which I urge you to visit.
“Now the paramount question: Why attack the Liberty? This was, in all probability, to be another Maine, another Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, Tonkin Gulf. The plan was to sink the Liberty with no survivors. That’s why the Israelis even machine-gunned the lifeboats. They flew in unmarked planes because, if successful, the attack would have been blamed on the Arabs. The intention was probably to then bring the U.S. into the Six Day War on Israel’s side, guaranteeing victory.”
From Remember The Liberty, by James Perloff

  Thanks for sending this clear historical explanation of the Revisionist-Zionist Project, from inception until the present day, Eleni.
  The veil is being torn: the hidden truths of Jabotinsky and Netanyahu , by Thierry Meyssan
The group that murdered 25,000 Palestinians in Gaza is not representative of Jews in general. It is the heir to an ideology that has been committing such crimes for a century. Thierry Meyssan traces the history of the "revisionist Zionists" from Vladimyr Ze’ev Jabotinsky to Benjamin Netanyahu.

  “Israel” blocked 56% of humanitarian aid to northern Gaza in January, OCHA
  According to the report by the office, In January, Israeli authorities prevented the arrival of 56% of humanitarian aid convoys to northern Gaza (34 out of 61) and prevented 25% of missions from reaching the central part (28 out of 114).
  The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) also announced that the Israeli navy, which controls the waters off the Gaza Strip, targeted a food aid convoy in Gaza.
  Earlier, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reported that 75% of Gaza Strip residents (more than 1.7 million people) have been displaced from their areas and face severe shortages of water, food, medicine, and housing.

  IFRC: 300 people, including elderly, are stuck inside Al-Amal Hospital in Gaza
  The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) confirmed on Tuesday that about 8,000 people were evacuated from the besieged Al-Amal Hospital in the southern Gaza Strip. The IFRC said that “about 300 people, including the elderly, are still stranded inside Al-Amal Hospital.”

  Al-Ezzi: Approximately 300 US and British airstrikes were waged on Yemen
  Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein al-Ezzi confirmed that approximately 300 US and British airstrikes were waged on Yemen.
In a post on his X account, he stated that “America is the one attacking us and cannot escape punishment.”

  Moon of Alabama ,  New York Times Defames Iraq's Militia As 'Foreign Elements' 
  The New York Times engages in a mischievous attempt to depict Iraq's popular mobilization forces as an element that is foreign to Iraq and under Iranian control...
..The Iraqi PMF groups were founded by the Iraqi government and are under its control. Some of them are Shia and some may have an ideological affinity to Iran.
  In 2014 and later many of these groups, Shia as well as others, received equipment and training from Iran to fight against ISIS. This help was delivered following requests from the Iraqi government.
  That does not make those groups into an Iranian element or into something outside of the Iraqi security forces. They are an integral part of the Iraqi state.
  To depict these as 'Iran-backed' outside groups comparable to the unwanted U.S. occupation forces in Iraq is pure falsehood designed to allow for attacks on those groups even when such attacks are in fact attacks on the security forces of Iraq and condemned by the Iraqi government.

  Israeli Lawmakers Move to Punish 'Denying' or 'Downplaying' October 7th With 5 Years in Prison
  "Israel's Knesset approves a bill, which punishes the denial or 'downplaying' of the Israeli narrative of Oct 7 by up to 5 years in prison," the Palestinian Quds News Network reported.
  "The approved bill is one out of three bills that included the expulsion of families of Palestinians who resist, imprisonment for those who deny Israel's narrative on October 7, and compensation for notorious ZAKA organization."
  The ZAKA unit is notable for pushing some of the most ridiculous atrocity propaganda about Hamas beheading babies and cutting the baby out of a pregnant woman's womb...
..No doubt they want to use this law to jail journalists from Haaretz and other Israeli news organizations which debunked much of the atrocity propaganda Israel put out after Oct 7.
  The Times of Israel last week ran a piece arguing that questioning Israel's narratives on Oct 7 is a form of "Holocaust denial" and insisting that Big Tech should do more to censor such "unacceptable" speech.

​  Hamas Responds To Ceasefire Offer With 135-Day 'Truce Plan', But Israel Pessimistic
  The Israeli plan envisions a 2-month ceasefire, during which time there would be hostage/prisoners swaps in multiple phases, by the end of which all remaining Israeli and foreign captives would be set free. On Wednesday Hamas finally presented its more detailed response to the Israeli plan. "Hamas proposed a ceasefire to quiet the guns in Gaza for four-and-a-half months [or 135 days], during which all hostages would go free, Israel would withdraw its troops from the Gaza Strip and an agreement would be reached on an end to the war," Reuters writes. 
  The proposed Hamas plan, which Israel now says it is studying intensely, would be implemented according to the proposed stages:
Phase one: A 45-day pause in fighting during which all Israeli women hostages, males under 19, the elderly and sick would be exchanged for Palestinian women and children held in Israeli jails. Israeli forces would withdraw from populated areas of Gaza and the reconstruction of hospitals and refugee camps would begin
Phase two: Remaining male Israeli hostages would be exchanged for Palestinian prisoners and Israeli forces leave Gaza completely
Phase three: Both sides would exchange remains and bodies...
..The above remains somewhat vague, and perhaps for good reason, given a key point of disagreement has centered on just who gets released from Israeli prisons...
.."The fact that Hamas is asking for a cease-fire for Israelis to withdraw its forces, that’s something that Israel will never agree to," the Netanyahu official told NBC.
  But Netanyahu has consistently said that the operation will not finish until Hamas is wiped out. He has pledged "absolute victory" over Hamas which could in reality take many months if not years. According to fresh Wednesday reports.

  This is a hardened position from before 10/7/23. The Kingdom seeks legitimacy:  Saudi Arabia: No diplomatic relations with Israel without Palestinian state
  The statement by the foreign ministry said Riyadh was steadfast on Palestinians obtaining their legitimate rights.
  “The Kingdom has communicated its firm position to the US administration that there will be no diplomatic relations with Israel unless an independent Palestinian state is recognized on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital,” the statement said.

  Israel-Hamas Deal Is Dead As Netanyahu Dismisses 'Delusional' Terms, War To 'Expand'
  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday that caving to Hamas' "delusional" ceasefire demands won't lead to the release of the hostages still being held in Gaza, but instead to another attack like the one the militant group committed on Oct. 7.
  It was the first time Netanyahu commented on Hamas' response to a recent hostage deal proposal since it was given to Israel on Tuesday. While dismissing Hamas' demands, Netanyahu didn't close the door to negotiations, however.
  Netanyahu has reportedly also told visiting US Secretary of State Blinken of Hamas' "crazy" conditions that "The continuation of military pressure is a basic condition for the release of the hostages." He is vowing to not stop the military campaign until "total victory" is achieved and that this would happen "within months." Netanyahu emphasized, "We won’t settle for less."

  John Helmer hosts an anonymous financial expert, who explains how to track gambles/investments related to prospects of Israeli victory. Markets are currently manipulated.
  ATTRITION WAR — HOW ISRAEL IS LOSING ON THE ECONOMIC FRONT
  The Axis of Resistance — that’s the Arab militaries with Iran and in the background, Russia – knows how to wage economic warfare against the US and its proxy, Israel.   The Houthi sanctions on shipping, for example, are showing more effectiveness in stopping Israel-bound or Israel-linked vessels in the Red Sea than US sanctions have been to block Russian oil shipments.
  In attrition war, on the economic front just like the Gaza and other fire fronts, the Axis of Resistance wins by maintaining its offensive capacities and operations for longer than the US and US-backed Israeli forces can defend...
..How to measure if this is happening now to the Israelis in the international money markets?
  An international currency and bond trader answers by providing, first, a primer for each of the market indicators, and how to read them; and then a ready reckoner for the damage being done to Israel’s economic resources as those who operate in the money markets gauge their opportunity.
  For making money, you see, the opportunity of capitalizing on Israel’s defeat may soon be more profitable than investing in its success. When the markets see this chance at profit-making, usually long before the politicians and their captive media acknowledge it, there is an inflection point in the flow of money. That does its damage, not by hitting the Israelis and Americans in their bunkers with bullets and bombs, but by moving the money the US-backed Israeli entity needs out of reach, and cutting them off, both the US and Israel,  from market confidence that they can win their war, genocide or not.
  The writer of this primer and money-market assessment has requested anonymity.

  The Pentagon has released a report admitting that 59 percent of the weapons the US has supplied to Ukraine are untraceable. Thanks to Western arms supplies, Ukraine has become the number one supplier of the international black market for weapons.

  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has finally announced that the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, General Valery Zaluzhny, will be replaced – and he is not the only one, UnHerd reported.
  During an interview for the Italian Rai TV, Zelensky called a cabinet reshuffle a "reset" and a "necessary new beginning" particularly considering the country's leadership, emphasizing he meant "a series of state leaders, not just in a single sector like the military.”
  Ukraine's army chief had warned that the country must prepare itself for another year of significant casualties as the war nears its two-year mark later this month.

  Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev believes that Lvov is set to become Ukraine's new capital city.
His conclusion is based on the fact that a new USAID-Ukraine project for the construction of a railway connecting the EU and Ukraine has Lvov and not Kiev as its endpoint.
  In December 2023, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and a major Ukrainian railway company signed an agreement for the construction of a 75-kilometer section of the European-gauge railway. The railroad will be part of a larger trans-European project (Mediterranean Corridor) starting in southern Spain and finishing in Lvov...
.."It looks like the first confirmation that Lvov-Lemberg will be the new capital of Ukraine within the borders of the Lvov region... It's just that business is much more prescient than politicians," Medvedev wrote on X [Lvov-Lemberg is the old name for the city from when the region was part of the Austrian monarchy.]

  Andrew Korybko, (Thanks Eleni)  Analyzing The Mediterranean Corridor’s Provisionally Planned Extension To Lvov
  Putting everything the together, the case can thus compellingly be made that the Mediterranean Corridor’s provisionally planned extension to Lvov is a pilot project that doesn’t presage the bloc’s intent to prepare for relocating the Ukrainian capital to there, even though this scenario could still transpire. Medvedev’s take wasn’t wrong per se since there’s a cogent logic behind what he wrote, but considering the facts that were shared in this piece, it appears to be more akin to wishful thinking than anything else.


  Carlson reveals Musk’s Putin interview pledge , The X (formerly Twitter) owner will not censor the American commentator’s much-hyped sit-down with the Russian president

  EU Lawmakers Want To Sanction Tucker Carlson Over Putin Interview
  In 1941, American journalist Pierre Huss interviewed German dictator Adolph Hitler in German-occupied Russia as part of a reporting staff orchestrated by CBS News' Edward R. Murrow. He won the George Polk award in 1951 for war time reporting...
..Guy Verhofstadt, a former Belgian Prime Minister and current member of the European Parliament who has called for the EU to impose a "travel ban" on the former Fox News host, told Newsweek that Carlson is nothing more than a "mouthpiece" for former President Donald Trump and Putin.
"As Putin is a war criminal and the EU sanctions all who assist him in that effort, it seems logical that the External Action Service examine his case as well," he said.

​  Words that kill: How Western spin doctors dehumanize select peoples to justify war
Carefully chosen words and turns of phrase serve as lubricant for US-backed military machines
​  Since the Second World War, the US has been directly and indirectly involved in dozens of wars and coups d'état alongside innumerable covert and overt conflicts across the globe. Given the vast resources required to perpetuate this aggressive global mechanism of influence, it's important to recognize that the taxpayers being asked to fund these “forever wars” may never have gone along with them without the assistance and covert alignment of a client media.
​  Language and terminology are, of course, a central and fundamental element when you need to portray a war as morally acceptable. This is glaringly obvious when we examine how Western media are portraying the current escalation in Gaza. American and British media subtly portray victims on one side as more expendable as opposed to the other, for example, by referring to Israeli casualties as having been “killed” while Palestinian ones are described as having simply “died”, while minors held captive by Israel, who have been detained without trial in some cases for several years, are referred to as “prisoners” while Israelis held by Hamas are referred to as “hostages.”​ ...
..Anyone watching the ebb and flow of Western coverage of the Ukrainian conflict will notice the emergence of a centrally formed, “fact-light” narrative that suggests Ukrainians are utterly blameless, in a conflict which did not, in fact, begin on February 24, 2022, but with a CIA-back coup in Kiev in 2014, powered by ultra-nationalists and the far right. Its roots stretch even deeper, decades back, to the attempts at the destabilization of the Ukrainian SSR by Western intelligence agencies.

​  America Is Undergoing Genocide​ , Paul Craig Roberts
​  It is not a conspiracy theory that the 300,000 immigrant-invaders (official count) entering the US unopposed each month are recruits organized by NGOs and not refugees from political persecution. The NGOs that are underwriting the invasion provide maps of the routes along which food and shelter are provided.  Roads and bridges are being constructed to aid the invasion.  
​  One of the NGOs is the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), of which the current director of the US Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, himself a Jew,  was a board member until December 2020.  According to an article on substack, HIAS has received $100,000,000 from the US government in the past three years.  https://jasonpowers.substack.com/p/us-border-invasion-dhs-and-doj-are
​  Mayorkas is foreign born and himself an immigrant-invader.  Yet, he is the director of Homeland Security for the United States.  On January 31, the House Committee on Homeland Security voted to approve articles of impeachment of Mayorkas for “willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law” in enforcing border policy and “breach of public trust.” There has been no investigation of whether it was Mayorkas who gave $100,000,000 of US taxpayers money to a Jewish NGO engaged in the organized invasion of the US.  
​  According to the report on substack, HIAS has a processing center in the Darien Gap used to collect the immigrant-invaders and to send them on their guided and provisioned way.  Apparently, Mayorkas is aware of this, and possibly is helping to finance it. But don’t expect Congress to investigate anything that might reflect unfavorably on a Jewish organization.

​  Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan revealed on X that the White House was directly involved in the censorship campaign. That includes a 2021 email from one Biden official asking to discuss “the high levels of propaganda and misinformation and disinformation of [sic] Amazon?”
​  Amazon in turn appears to ask only how high the Biden White House wants it to jump on censorship: “[i]s the [Biden] Admin asking us to remove books, or are they more concerned about search results/order (or both)?”
​  After the meeting, Amazon confirmed in an email that it was actively doing what the government demanded in suppressing sales by not promoting disfavored books: “As a reminder, we did enable Do Not Promote for anti-vax books whose primary purpose is to persuade readers vaccines are unsafe or ineffective on 3/9, and will review additional handling options for these books with you.”​...
..In 2021, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) objected that people were not listening to the informed views of herself and leading experts. Instead, they were reading views of skeptics by searching Amazon and finding books by “prominent spreaders of misinformation.”
​  Warren blamed Amazon for failing to limit searches or choices: “This pattern and practice of misbehavior suggests that Amazon is either unwilling or unable to modify its business practices to prevent the spread of falsehoods or the sale of inappropriate products.” In her letter, Warren gave the company 14 days to change its algorithms to throttle and obstruct efforts to read opposing views.

Types Of Coercion

 Increasingly Constrained,


  Charles Hugh Smith points out the state of play in humanity's global game of power.  The International City Model: Freedom Is the Solution, Coercion Is the Problem
​  History is simplifying the choice ahead in terms of solving socio-economic problems: increase coercion or increase freedom. The legacy systems--nation-states and their core institutions--want to increase their power to coerce everyone as the ideal solution, while those being coerced want more choices and freedom, not less. The legacy power structures seek more centralized control, those under the thumb of monopolies and centralized powers want decentralized, localized options.
​  Stripped of PR niceties, the legacy systems view any problem as a threat to their power: every problem boils down to this: how do we protect the status quo from any change, because the current configuration is the source of our wealth, authority and power.

​  Catherine Austin Fitts (CAF), Publisher of The Solari Report, financial expert and former Assistant Secretary of Housing (Bush 41 Admin.), says, “The federal government is being run as a criminal enterprise. . . .not just a little criminal, but a lot criminal.”
​  CAF thinks now is the time for state governments to act to protect their citizens from the dangers of a falling dollar and increasing central control over “We the People.”  CAF explains,
“One of the things we are talking with the states about is Sovereign State Banks, so they can protect their transactions in dollars.
​  We are also talking about State Bullion Depositories.  This is so states can protect their rainy-day reserve and, ultimately, their transaction ability with gold and silver.​  Under the Constitution, the states have those powers.
​  This is very important if we are going to have sovereignty as individuals and not wake up one day and find ourselves in the same spot as the Canadian truckers who had their bank accounts shut down for protesting the CV19 lockdowns and mandates.  
​  More and more, we are seeing people say the ‘wrong things,’ and suddenly they find their bank account is shut down.  So, if we are going to have individual sovereignty, we need governments that can provide sovereignty...
​  The states have the power to implement financial transaction arrangements to protect our financial transaction freedom.  Without our financial transaction freedom, we are literally going to lose all of our freedoms.”

​  “So in November 1917, Lord Arthur Balfour, a European who was British foreign secretary at the time, promised another European, Lord Rothschild, that the British Empire would support a Jewish national home in Palestine by ignoring the fact that the overwhelming majority in the land were Palestinians,” he said.

"Most Americans Are Not Informed... We're Here Because We Love The US" - Tucker Carlson Explains Why He Is Interviewing Vladimir Putin

​  MK Bhadrakumar (Thanks Eleni)  Nuland leaves sense of foreboding in Kiev
​  The new war strategy — which was outlined in a recent article in the Washington Post — takes into account the  possibility of Ukraine becoming a dysfunctional state. But so long as Ukraine remains a cauldron boiling with nationalism that lends itself as a base for hostile moves to destabilise Russia and lock it in permanently in a confrontation with the West, the purpose is served —from Washington’s viewpoint.
​  The final act of the power struggle playing out in Kiev is, therefore, of decisive importance and is being supervised by none other than Biden’s agent in the administration ever since the Maidan coup in Ukraine in 2014 — Victoria Nuland, Undersecretary of State. Nuland’s two-fold mission has been, first, to put in place a calculus of power in Kiev that is firmly under US control and, second, to steer the transition from war to insurgency when the need arises.​..
​..This agenda enjoys the support of the transatlantic alliance, is “cost-effective” and allows the US to focus on Asia-Pacific, while keeping Russia down for the foreseeable future.​..
..Now that the US has broken the glass ceiling by enabling a military attack on Russian territory, Moscow should brace for more incidents like the downing of the IL-76 plane. The authorities will be keeping a beady eye...
..While in Kiev, Nuland forecast Ukrainian military successes in 2024 and that Moscow “is going to get some nice surprises on the battlefield”.

​  British plan to station NATO troops in Ukraine​  [So the western financial economy WILL collapse this spring and this is the fix?]
​  The UK came up with an idea to secretly transfer large and highly manoeuvrable NATO forces to Ukraine to occupy positions on the right bank of the Dnieper and on the border with Belarus.
​  An anonymous "knowledgeable source” informed that troops from Finland, Sweden, Romania and Poland could be involved in the operation. The goal is to "free up” forces in Ukraine for their subsequent redirection to the zone of the special military operation.

​  Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valery Zaluzhny has reportedly agreed to be Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom and will leave Ukraine within days, lawmaker Yevgeny Shevchenko said.​    [I can imagine that this role might actually be more ​politically important than historical precedent would suggest.]
​  "I would like to say that according to my sources, Zaluzhny has agreed to be the ambassador to Great Britain. He is highly likely to go there and we know that those who leave the country as ambassadors are political retirees. None of them has ever returned to their former positions, this is Ukraine’s tradition.​"

​  The Steadfast Defender 2024 exercise, which is taking place right now, is of deep concern because it has become the backdrop for statements from London about the need to send to help Kyiv expeditionary force of NATO countries. Its tasks may include occupying the entire Right Bank with Odessa and Kyiv, creating a no-fly zone over them and forming a buffer zone along the borders of Russia and Belarus. The released forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will then be sent from the rear to the front line in counterattack-2.

​  According to data from the American statistical service, last year the United States imported a record amount of oil from Venezuela totaling more than $2,5 billion, which was a record since 2018. At the same time, Washington recently refused to deal with the “Maduro regime” and tried to undermine political situation in the South American country with the help of his protege Juan Guaido.
​  The head of the American Petroleum Institute (API), which unites 600 companies in the country's oil and gas sector, Mike Sommers, insisted on increasing purchases of Venezuelan oil. He called this a forced measure given the US refusal to supply Russian raw materials.
​  However, small quantities of oil from the Russian Federation seep to the American market, and at a price higher than the ceiling set by the United States itself.

Stand with Chinese people”, Wu wrote to the victim via the WeChat group for students in Berklee College of Music that “Post more, I will chop your bastard hands off.” ​ He also claimed that he had reported the victim and her family in China to the Chinese government so they would be punished for anti-CCP activities. Moreover, Wu published the victim’s address and email, calling for harassment and retaliation from others.
​  Additionally, it shows that Wu asked his mom in China for suggestions about reporting the victim to the government. Based on the information revealed, his parents are both CCP members and officials in the Tax Bureau in Beijing.

  ​I watched the whole video carefully, pausing to check some assertions as they were presented. The US clearly has Deep Underground Military Bases, but how many, and where, past the few we know of. Trillions of $US have gone missing over the decades from the Pentagon budget alone, as Donald Rumsfeld mentioned 9/10/2001, just before the Office of Naval Intelligence at the Pentagon got blown up exactly where the spending was being investigated.
  I found the assertion of laser-boring a 28 foot diameter in the rock for 7 miles per day to be well beyond anything I could imagine as possible. There are no lasers that big and powerful, and where would the lava go? Other points stretch my credulity. Was this speaking tour allowed to discredit a movement by the assertion of refutable claims?
​  Josh Mittledorf,  Underground Military Technologies (last) Testimony of an insider​  Phil Schneider was a man who claimed to have engineered underground military bases in the 1990s all over America, using technology not available to civilians and possibly sourced from alien spacecraft. He says there were at that time 131 city-sized bases linked by a high-speed mag-lev rail network. He reported hundreds of thousands of people involved, at a cost of hundreds of billions each year. This video was made before Dick Cheney announced in 2001 that there was $2.3 trillion unaccounted for in DoD spending — a number which had increased to $21 trillion according to Mark Skidmore and Catherine Austin Fitts.

​  Ike and the Alien Ambassadors​ , Washington Post ,  February 19, 2004 ​ [Thanks Josh.]
​  On Feb. 20, 1954 -- President Dwight Eisenhower interrupted his vacation in Palm Springs, Calif., to make a secret nocturnal trip to a nearby Air Force base to meet two extraterrestrial aliens.  Or maybe not. Maybe Ike just went to the dentist. There's some dispute about this...
..Just to make things more intriguing: On the night in question, the Associated Press reported this: "Pres. Eisenhower died tonight of a heart attack in Palm Springs."...
..Some facts are beyond dispute: Eisenhower was on a golf vacation in Palm Springs on Feb. 20, 1954. After dinner that night, he made an unscheduled departure from the Smoking Tree Ranch, where he was staying. The next morning, he attended a church service in Los Angeles. Also that morning, his spokesman announced to the press that Ike had visited a dentist the previous night because he'd chipped a tooth while eating a chicken wing at dinner.
  Salla, who has a PhD in government from the University of Queensland in his native Australia, doesn't believe it. He figures the dentist trip is just a cover story. He believes Ike went to Edwards Air Force Base, where he met with two ETs with white hair, pale blue eyes and colorless lips.
  These aliens -- nicknamed "Nordics" in UFO circles because they resemble Scandinavian humans -- traveled to Edwards from another solar system in a flying saucer and, Salla says, they spoke to Eisenhower.
  "There was telepathic communication," says Salla, 45, as he sits in his suburban Falls Church living room. "It's as though you're hearing a person but they're not speaking."
​  The "Nordics" offered to share their superior technology and their spiritual wisdom with Ike if he would agree to eliminate America's nuclear weapons.​ "They were afraid we might blow up some of our nuclear technology," Salla says, "and apparently that does something to time and space and it impacts on extraterrestrial races on other planets."​  [This may be misstated as a distant effect. I have heard that it is a more local effect on nearby, but unseen aliens.]
​  Ike declined the ETs' offer, Salla says, because he did not want to give up the nukes.
​  Sometime later in 1954, Ike reached a deal with another race of extraterrestrials, known as the "Greys" -- allowing them to capture earthling cattle and humans for medical experiments, provided that they returned the humans safely home. Since then, Salla says, the "Greys" have kidnapped "millions" of humans.
​  Salla, author of "The Hero's Journey Toward a Second American Century," published his ET theories in his new book, "Exopolitics: Political Implications of the Extraterrestrial Presence" and in an article on his "Exopolitics" Web site (www.exopolitics.org).​..
.."The lack of a dental record from Purcell's office," Mixson wrote, "has helped fuel belief in this UFO encounter."

​  Rep. Chris Smith: ‘Far Too Little Scrutiny’ Given to WHO Pandemic Treaty​  [There is so much more. This is a framework for transnational governance.​]
​  Of paramount importance is whether the Biden administration will submit the so-called “treaty” to the U.S. Senate “for its constitutionally-required advice and consent as a prerequisite for ratification,” Smith noted, warning that “an executive agreement bypassing Senate ratification would be an egregious mistake.”
​  The New Jersey representative further expressed his concern about some of the most grievous issues attached to the WHO’s agreement, including:
The “billions of dollars U.S. taxpayers will be required to give pursuant to Article 20 of the Agreement in ‘annual monetary contributions … to the WHO Pandemic Agreement.”​  Article 6 calls for the “continued provision of … essential health services,” which, Smith noted, includes abortion on demand.​..
​..Smith also drew attention to Article 18 that seeks to “combat false, misleading, misinformation or disinformation.”
​  “Will there be any room for dissent on vaccines, therapeutics, virus transmission and the like—especially among scientists and health professionals—or will group think again crowd out other viewpoints?” the congressman asked. “We have reason for concern—past could be prologue.”
​  According to the UN News, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus expressed concern to the executive board that “several outstanding issues” needed to be resolved within a short time in order to establish consensus on the “treaty.”

​  Dynamics of Serum-Neutralizing Antibody Responses in Vaccinees through Multiple Doses of the BNT162b2 Vaccine​  Translation: Useless, but help super-spreading.
​..Although strong neutralization responses were detected in two- and three-dose vaccine sera, these rapidly decayed to pre-immune levels by four and six months, respectively. While boosters enhanced serum IgG Ab reactivity and nAb responses against variant strains, all variants tested showed resistance to two- and three-dose immune sera. Our data reflect the poor durability of vaccine-induced nAb responses which are a strong predictor of protection from symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. The induction of IgG4-switched humoral responses may permit extended viral persistence via the downregulation of Fc-mediated effector functions.

​  50 Lawmakers Demand AG Garland Explain Illegal CCP-Linked Marijuana Farms​   ["Capitalism with Chinese characteristics"?]
​  "Chinese nationals—including those with potential ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)—are reportedly operating thousands of illicit marijuana farms across the country," they wrote. "The thousands of illicit Chinese marijuana growing operations pose a direct threat to public safety, human rights, national security, and the addiction crisis gripping our nation."
​  According to the lawmakers, Chinese grow operations have been identified in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Washington.
​  "In some cases, the grow operators were also engaged in human trafficking, forced labor, drug trafficking, and violent crime," the letter continues. "These farms are most commonly in states with legal marijuana programs where illicit growers try to disguise their operations in communities where law-abiding Americans live and work."
​  The letter cites a 2023 DHS memo which said that 270 suspected China-linked illegal grow operations in Maine alone were generating more than $4.3 billion in revenue.

Complicit Or Revolting

 Realists,


  Caitlin Johnstone asserts: "However Bad You Think Israel Is, It's Worse"
The IDF has been running a Telegram channel featuring homemade snuff films in which Gazans are brutally murdered by Israeli forces, captioned with celebrations of the gore and pain therein like​  “Burning their mother… You won’t believe the video we got! You can hear their bones crunch.” ​ The IDF had previously denied any association with the channel, but Haaretz now reports that it was directly run by an IDF psychological warfare unit.

Are We Turning the the Corner Away from Genocide and the Criminality Inherent in the Rules-Based International Order?
Why Did the ICJ Put the Netanyahu Government in Charge of Preventing and Punishing the Gaza Genocide?
​  I’m old enough to remember hearing and seeing frequent references to something called “the rule of law.” Then in the post-9/11 era this vital phrase seemed to go the way of our dwindling freedoms, civil liberties and the tattered remnants of our democratic institutions. In the process of aborting the promise of decent human futures for most of the world’s people, the word, “law,” was pushed to the sidelines.

​  Strikes Against Anti-ISIS Militias in Syria and Iraq Prove US War on Terror is a Sham
​  Local media estimated that at least 23 people were killed in Syria and 16 in Iraq in Saturday’s attacks, with Damascus and Baghdad blasting Washington for its flagrant violation of the two countries’ sovereignty. Syria’s Foreign Ministry said it was “not surprised” to see American forces attack targets in the country’s east, “where our forces are fighting against the remnants of the ISIS terrorist organization, while the United States is working to revive ISIS terrorist activity.”

​  U.S. admits it hasn’t verified Israel’s UNRWA claims, media ignores it
Secretary Blinken admits that the U.S. has been unable to investigate the “evidence” presented by Israel claiming 13 of UNRWA’s 13,000 Gaza employees participated in October 7. Biden took Israel’s word for it anyway.

​  ‘Operation Al-Aqsa Flood’ Day 122: Endless killings and despair in Gaza
Biden urges Congress to "swiftly pass" a $118bn bipartisan deal that includes $14.1bn in military aid to Israel after the ICJ ordered Israel to halt its ongoing attacks on civilians in Gaza.
​  27,365+ killed* and at least 66,630 wounded in the Gaza Strip.
380+ Palestinians killed in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem

  Chris Hedges, Our leading humanitarian and civic institutions, including major medical institutions, refuse to denounce Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This exposes their hypocrisy and complicity.   [Don't forget to get your boosters!]
​  The deans of U.S. medical schools and leading medical organizations, especially the American Medical Association (AMA) have joined the ranks of universities, law schools, churches and the media to turn their backs on the Palestinians. The AMA shut down a debate on a ceasefire resolution among its members and has called for “medical neutrality,” although it abandoned “medical neutrality” to denounce Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
​  There is a cost to denouncing this genocide, a cost they do not intend to pay. They fear being attacked. They fear destroying their careers. They fear losing funding. They fear a loss of status. They fear persecution. They fear social isolation. This fear makes them complicit.
​  And what of those who do speak out? They are branded as antisemites and supporters of terrorism.

​  Houthis Vow 'Escalation' Despite US Strikes, Could Sabotage Western Internet Cables In Red Sea
​  Despite more weekend rounds of US heavy strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen, the militant group aligned with Iran is vowing more attacks on vessels in the Red Sea...
..A Houthi spokesman, Yahya Saree, responded soon after on Sunday, saying "These attacks will not deter us from our moral, religious and humanitarian stance" in support of Palestinians in Gaza. He vowed that it won't pass "without response and punishment."​ ...
​.."Telecom firms linked to the UN-recognized Yemen government have said they fear Houthi rebels are planning to sabotage a network of submarine cables in the Red Sea critical to the functioning of the western internet and the transmission of financial data," The Guardian reports.
According to the specific Houthi threat:
​  The warning came after a Houthi-linked Telegram channel published a map of the cables running along the bed of the Red Sea. The image was accompanied by a message: “There are maps of international cables connecting all regions of the world through the sea. It seems that Yemen is in a strategic location, as internet lines that connect entire continents – not only countries – pass near it.”

​  Could the Houthis sabotage international internet cables in the Red Sea?
Yemeni telecoms companies have warned that the Houthis are planning to target the Red Sea’s internet cables.
​  “While the Houthis have access to advanced drones and missiles, they likely do not have the technological capabilities to reach cables that are hundreds, if not thousands, of meters underwater,” Pinto tells Army Technology. “They could maybe target one or two of the shallowest cables.”
​  The Red Sea has an average depth of 490m, with some cables lying at just 100m.
​  “The Houthis certainly don’t have submarines,” Jones acknowledges. “But they could use some kind of depth charge, explosive or remote-controlled underwater mine, or send someone in scuba gear with wire cutters.”

​  The Honest Sorcerer,   We Are Not Mining with Renewable Energy…and when we do, shit is going to get real​
  So, what sort of technology will be available in the late 21st century? Following the logic of energy and resource cannibalism it is not terribly hard to see where things are headed. It increasingly looks like to me that we are hurtling towards a steadfast deindustrialization of the entire world economy, and a radical re-localization of the production of essentials. Even though we still might have abundant iron or aluminum (bauxite) reserves, we are already in the process of running out of affordable energy to process them. Iron ore represented 93.4% of all metals mined in 2021, and all of it was delivered and smelted using fossil fuels — mostly coal. Without enough diesel fuel though, the remaining vast iron and coal reserves will remain under ground, as there will be no way to haul away the miles of rock covering them. Sorry, but no diesel, no coal. And no coal, means no steel. And with a drastically diminished steel production, it would be even harder to build more mines, railroads, processing plants, wind turbines, you name it. No steel, no manufacturing, no construction, no complex society.

  ​Newt Gingrich (ack) describes the class which manages for the elites, here.  The Elite 1 Percent Behind the Cultural Civil War
​  While doing their two weekly national surveys, Rasmussen and his team noticed an anomaly. Out of every 1,000 or so respondents, there would always be three or four who were far more radical than everyone else. After several months of finding these unusual responses, Rasmussen realized they all shared three characteristics.
​  The radical responses came from people who had graduate degrees (not just graduate studies), family incomes above $150,000 a year, and lived in large cities (more than 10,000 people per zip code).
​  When Rasmussen aggregated the responses from more than 20 surveys, he realized these people made up a unique elite 1 percent.
​  He then did a national survey of only people with these characteristics – and found some astonishing results. He briefed me and our team on the findings – and joined me on Newt’s World to talk about it further.
​  When all other voters gave President Joe Biden a 41 percent job approval, the elite 1 percent rated him at 82 percent approval.
​  The elite 1 percent are surprisingly young. Sixty-seven percent are between 35 and 54 years old. They are 86 percent white. Almost half of them (47 percent) favor “Sanders-like policies.” They are overwhelmingly Democrats (73 percent).
​  The gap between the elite 1 percent and the rest of America is startling. While 57 percent of all voters say there is not enough individual freedom in America, 47 percent of the elite 1 percent say there is too much freedom.​ 77 percent of the elite 1 percent would like to impose strict restrictions and rationing on the private use of gas, meat, and electricity.​
72 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning gas powered vehicles.
69 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning gas stoves.
58 percent of the elite 1 percent favor of banning sport utility vehicles.
55 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning non-essential air travel.
53 percent of the elite 1 percent favor banning private air conditioning.

​  Polish Farmers Plan General Strike, Blockade Of Ukraine Border
​  The presiding officers of the farmers’ trade union “Solidarity” unanimously adopted a resolution on Wednesday announcing a general strike of farmers throughout the country, according to a union’s statement.
​  The strike will begin on February 9 with a blockade of all border crossings between Poland and Ukraine, along with blockades of roads and highways across the country between Feb. 9 and March 10, the trade union said in the statement on Thursday.​  “Our patience has run out. Brussels’ position on the last day of January 2024 is unacceptable for our entire agricultural community,” the trade union said in the statement.​  “Additionally, the passivity of the Polish authorities... regarding the import of agricultural produce and food products from Ukraine leave us with no other choice but to declare a general strike.”

​  Kyle Young, who lives in a stretch of rural Arizona border, which is run by Mexican Drug Cartels, has very useful insights (and videos), which I have not seen elsewhere.
​What we are not being told about the border situation
​  As long time readers know, I’ve lived near the Mexican border most of my life. For nearly forty years I’ve witnessed first hand the ebb and flow of migrants moving across my farm in groups of two to thirty+ at a time. I’ve had to fix my fences numerous times, turn off the water at my well because they didn’t, and pick up their garbage. Much of the latter was supplied by humanit​arian aid groups.

​  The Ethical Skeptic looks intently at "Intent".  The Problem Of Intent
​  Intent exists. We cannot define the boundary of the domain of intent, save by means of metaphysical speculation. Therefore, all theist versus atheist debates regarding gods, designs, purpose, creations and/or the lacks thereof are but mere religious diversions from this core reality.
​  I have good news for those wearied by the red herring debates of atheists and theists alike. Rest assured, the arguments entailed by both camps neither involve mutual exclusion nor bifurcation, nor do they present a false dilemma. Such deliberations firmly reside within the realm of irrelevance, exemplifying a fallacy known as ignoratio elenchi, which essentially entails ‘answering the wrong question’.
​  Don’t get me wrong: both theists and atheists are free to lead lives enriched by the meaning they derive from their respective metaphysical choices. I appreciate sincere arguments from both sides of the debate and see each camp’s pursuit of truth as valid and significant. I can comfortably mingle at gatherings hosted by both theists and atheists, fully recognizing the relative strengths of each group’s arguments. This is the ethical privilege of ignosticism​ ["God" cannot be "defined"], distinct from agnosticism.​ ​ 
​  After all, it has never been about God, gods, creation, intelligent design, naturalism, or purpose to begin with. All such teleological deliberations are ignoratio elenchi and constitute mere metaphysical selection. No one ‘represents science’ inside such debates.
