Burundi

How did you get involved with anti-war activism and World BEYOND War (WBW)?

Burundi has been strongly affected by violence since 1962, the date of independence. Its conflicts are based in political issues between social groups. Those conflicts decimated many people, included youth. In 2015, Burundi again experienced social tensions that killed women, men and young people. From that experience, I became involved and started to advocate for no more violence by gathering young students and discussing the topic of peace and why violence is prevalent. I met William M Timpson, who shared some books of WBW, and I became interested in WBWs mission. My team and I established the WBW Burundi chapter this year. We are engaged in establishing a just peace.

What kinds of WBW activities do you work on?

We are convinced that once you educate youth, you educate the world. I am involved in organizing virtual and in-person meetings with students and young people, about how to develop a sustainable peace and how to contribute to creating a culture of peace.

Whats your top recommendation for someone who wants to get involved with anti-war activism and WBW?

WBW is a good movement to stay connected with for anyone who wishes to shape peace through its articles, webinars, videos, and books that promote peace and the end to all war.

What keeps you inspired to advocate for change?

Change is needed for a better world and there is a hope when I value others, love them and share the vision for a peaceful future.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported that Germany is now investigating whether Poland played a role in last Septembers terrorist attack against the Nord Stream II pipeline. This latest twist builds upon the narrative that was introduced a few months back alleging that rogue Ukrainian saboteurs were responsible, which came after Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh published a detailed report in February citing unnamed US sources who accused Biden of personally planning a very different American-led operation than the one that Germany is looking into.

President Putin publicly endorsed his interpretation of events, which could explain why the alternative one exculpating the US and blaming a rogue Ukrainian faction was introduced shortly thereafter. It was analyzed at the time that this new narrative might be a back-up plan consisting of false evidence that was planted in advance in order to be discovered if America was ever implicated in this attack. As surreal as it sounds, this partially anti-Ukrainian spin might thus be a pro-US disinformation campaign.

Whatever the truth might be, the importance of the latest development is that it puts more pressure on Poland at the worst time possible for its ruling Law & Justice (PiS) party. A few days prior to the WSJs report, the European Commission announced that its suing Poland over its newly formed Russian influence commission that both the EU and the US earlier criticized. That countrys top two partners expressed deep concern that it might be exploited to persecute the opposition ahead of falls elections.

President Duda then introduced an amendment removing the possibility of barring alleged Russian influence agents from holding office in an attempt to assuage their concerns, suggesting that PiS will settle for branding those found guilty of this with a scarlet letter instead. The German-led EU wasnt satisfied and subsequently sued Poland, which prompted Mainstream Media...

Poland had nothing to do with last Septembers explosions on the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines, high-ranking security official Stanislaw Zaryn has stated. Reports alleging Warsaw had a role in the sabotage are aimed at distracting the publics attention from what actually happened, he added.

On Saturday, the Wall Street Journal claimed that German investigators were seeking to establish if Poland was somehow involved in the attack on the undersea pipelines, built to deliver Russian natural gas to Europe via Germany.

According to the paper, officials in Berlin suggested that Ukrainian saboteurs could have used the country as an operational base before the explosions. They reached this assumption based on the fact the Andromeda yacht, which could have been used in the attack, had been chartered through a Ukrainian-owned travel agency in Warsaw, and that the suspects arrived at a German port, where they boarded the vessel on a van with Polish license plates, the report claimed.

Poland had no connection with the blowing up of Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2, Zaryn wrote on Twitter on Saturday.

Attempts to link Poland to those events are baseless, the official, serves as Secretary of State in the Chancellery of the Prime Minister of Poland and as acting deputy of the minister coordinator of Special Services, insisted.

The recent spreading of theories on who might have destroyed a key component of Europes energy infrastructure resembles the tactics of information noise, the aim of which is to distort the true picture of events, he argued.

The hypothesis that the blow-up was committed by Russia, which had the motive and the ability to carry out such an operation, remains valid, Zaryn said.

Russia has repeatedly denied accusations made by some in the West that it blew up its own pipelines. It has also rejected claims that a pro-Ukrainian group was responsible for the sabotage, saying such stories were aimed at distracting attention from a bombshell article by veteran reporter Seymour Hersh, who insisted in February that Nord Stream had been destroyed by American operatives.

According to an informed source who talked to the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, the explosives were planted on the pipelines in June 2022 by US Navy divers under the cover of a NATO exercise and detonated two months later on the order of US President Joe Biden.

The public received another drop of military intelligence agency-led disclosure this week. Vetting the story was, well, impossible. Why? Because its classified.

Unlike whistleblowers like Edward Snowden or Julian Assange, both revealing actual evidence, David Gruschs whistleblowing storytelling and evidence are two different things altogether.

Grusch is alleging there is a secret UFO retrieval program.

Interviewer, Do we have bodies? Do we have species? Grusch replies, When you recover something that has either landed or crashed, sometimes you encounter dead pilots.

Interviewer asks, We have spacecraft from another species? Grusch replies, Yes, we do.

Was he (Grusch) part of that program? No.

Did he (Grusch) see the craft or bodies himself? No.

Grusch says, were definitely not alone.

There are two major points here; first is the continuity of media chosen to release these type of stories and second is the progression of a narrative through the same media sources.

Breaking the story first on June 5th, in written form, was Leslie Keane and Ralph Blumenthal. It was NewsNation who did the first sit-down recorded interview of Grusch, also released on the same day with a pre-recorded appearance by Keane. Coincidently on the same day, June 5th, a live panel discussion at one of the largest UFO conferences in the world also picked up the story and excitedly integrated it into their segment with Danny Sheehan and Richard Dolan giving a live synopsis.

NewsNation claimed they have not seen or verified the alleged proof Grusch claims he provided to investigators. They also state that Grusch has not seen photos of the alleged craft himself but has talked extensively with other intelligence officials who have.

Keane and Blumenthal were the journalists who kicked off the intelligence agency-led disclosure in their co-authored article which appeared in the NY Times on December 16, 2017 titled Glowing Auras and Black Money: The Pentagons Mysterious U.F.O. Program which featured former Pentagon official Lue Elizondo.

For any given war, one can examine the months or years or decades during which one or both sides worked diligently to make it happen, and both sides conspicuously failed to develop peaceful alternatives. Even in the moment of greatest violence, one can consider the unarmed-resistance alternatives that are carefully kept out of consideration.

But even if you can explain away all justification for every side of every particular war yes, even that one, there remains the false claim that war is somehow simply part of humanity. If ants were to stop waging wars, nobody would bat an eye, but such a feat is deemed simply beyond the intelligence of homo sapiens.

There is a problem for this nonsense. It is the problem of peaceful human societies. We know that many, if not most, hunter-gatherer groups of humans engaged for the vast bulk of human existence in nothing resembling low-tech war. Even in recent millennia, much of Australia, the Arctic, Northeast Mexico, the Great Basin of North America, and even Europe before the rise of patriarchic warrior cultures, did largely or entirely without war. Recent examples abound. In 1614 Japan cut itself off from the West and from major warfare until 1853 when the U.S. Navy forced its way in. During such periods of peace, culture flourishes. The colony of Pennsylvania for a time chose to respect the native peoples, at least in comparison with other colonies, and it knew peace and prospered. The notion held by celebrity astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson that because 17th century Europe invested in science by investing in warfare therefore only through militarism can any culture advance, and therefore conveniently enough astrophysicists are 100% justified in working for the Pentagon, is a view based on an absurd level of blinkered prejudice that few liberals would accept if duplicated in explicitly racist or sexist terms.

But simply to assert, or even indisputably prove, that various societies have liv...

Dr. REVILO Pendleton Oliver, Professor of the Classics at the University of Illinois for 32 years and one of the leading philologists of his time, read eleven languages, including Sanskrit, and for more than half a century wrote scholarly articles in four languages for academic publications in the United States and Europe.

One of the first to sound the alarm about the world Communist conspiracy, Revilo Oliver recognized that, in their desire to destroy Western civilization, Cabalists find a natural ally in gays like WHO Director Tedros Adhanom, who spearheaded the COVID hoax.

Gay activists Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen admitted a surprisingly large percentage of gay men are pathological liars and con men. (Even Gays Admit They are Sick)

As outsiders, both Cabalists and gays feel a natural resentment against civil society and wish to destroy it. Its no coincidence that leading Illuminati figures like Winston Churchill, Adolf Hitler, Tony Blair, Justin Trudeau, George W Bush, and Barack Obama were/are homosexuals. Here Oliver barely scratches the surface but I am sure that if we dig deeper, we will discover that homosexuality plays a prominent role in the Illuminati conspiracy. Were not saying all gays are subversives only that, just like Jews, a disproportionate number of occult subversives are gay.

As R.G. Waldeck summarized it in Human Events, the (homosexual) conspiracy has spread all over the globe; has penetrated all classes; operates in armies and in prisons; has infiltrated into the press, the movies, and the cabinets; and it all but dominates the arts, literature, theater, music, and TV. 

So long as the degenerates were furtive and discreet, the American public had no conception of their number and power. This has changed.

Military Watch Magazine June 9, 2023

Since the initiation of Ukraines mass offensive against Russian positions the Ukrainian Army and allied paramilitaries have begun to actively deploy new batches of armour received from Western countries, including not only very large numbers of Leopard 1 and Leopard 2A4 tanks, but also the much more capable Leopard 2A6 which, alongside the British Challenger 2, is considered the most capable in the countrys inventory. While Leopard 2A4s have proven highly vulnerable in combat with armour protection that is effectively obsolete, as best demonstrated by Turkish use of the vehicles against local militias in Syria and Iraq, the Leopard 2A6 has long been marketed as a much more capable vehicle. Costing close to $8 million per vehicle, advantages of the new variant include use of 3rd generation composite armour, integration of a a longer barrelled and more powerful main gun, installation of additional armour modules on the turret, and use of much improved fire controls. The loss of these tanks, which have widely been considered the most capable in production across the Western world, has significant implications well beyond Ukraine itself.

Four more Ukrainian Leopard 2 tanks destroyed Moscow

RT.com June 10, 2023

The Russian military has destroyed nine Ukrainian tanks, including four German-made Leopard 2s, as it successfully repelled attempts to advance by Kievs forces, the Ministry of Defense has claimed.

Over the past 24 hours, Ukraine has continued fruitless attempts to carry out offensive operations in Russias Zaporozhye Region, in the south of Donetsk Peoples Republic and near the city of Artyomovsk, also known as Bakhmut, ministry spokesman Lieutenant General Igor Konashenkov said during a briefing on Saturday.

In Zaporozhye Region, Russian ground troops, artillery and aviation repelled two attacks by large Ukrainian units boosted by tanks in the area of Yablonevo and Novopokrovka villages, he said.

Two of Kievs armored convoys were struck near the settlements of Novodanilovka and Malaya Tokmachka, the spokesman also reported. There were also three smaller Ukrainian attacks in the region, which were also unsuccessful, he added.

The U.S. Department of Defense announced an additional $2.1 billion in security assistance for Ukraine on Friday, including air defense and ammunition capabilities, amid signs that Kyiv had begun its long-awaited counteroffensive against Russia.

The package includes additional munitions for Patriot air defense systems, Raytheon (RTX.N) HAWK air defense systems and missiles, 105mm and 203mm artillery rounds, small AeroVironment (AVAV.O) drones that can be launched by hand, laser-guided rocket system munitions and support for training and maintenance, the Defense Department.

Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) funds will be used to purchase the weapons, allowing President Joe Bidens administration to buy weapons from industry, rather than pull them from U.S. stocks.

Delivery of the weapons and systems depends on their availability and production timeline.

The announcement came as Ukraines long-anticipated counterattack seemed to be under way. Russia reported heavy fighting along the front in southern Ukraine, and bloggers described the first sightings of German and U.S. tanks and armored vehicles.

The Pentagon has provided more than $7 billion in security assistance for Ukraine under the USAI, in five separate tranches. In the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2022, Washington put $6.3 billion worth of USAI funds to work buying for Ukraines defense.

Biden said at a press conference with British Prime Minister Sunak on Thursday he was confident Washington could have the necessary funding to support Ukraine for as long as it takes, despite skepticism from a few Republicans in Congress.

In a statement, the Department of Defense said the latest announcement illustrates the continued commitment to both Ukraines critical near-term capabilities as well as the enduring capacity of Ukraines Armed Forces to defend its territory and deter Russian aggression over the long term.

In total, the United States has committed up to $40 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since Russias invasion on Feb. 24, 2022.

U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) has sent a letter to law enforcement agencies demanding answers on undercover police activity on January 6. The congressman cited an authenticated GoPro video that shows at least one undercover officer urging protesters to climb barriers and enter the Capitol building.

In an interview with Just The News, Loudermilk confirmed the authenticity of a GoPro video released this past March in which at least one undercover D.C. Metropolitan Police officer can be seen instigating illegal activity. We know that it is one of their officers and at one point he is encouraging, and it appears hes encouraging, hes definitely helping people climb the scaffolding, and hes telling them go, go, go, Loudermilk told the Just the News.

Why is an officer encouraging people to climb the scaffolding and go into the Capitol? And secondly, why did the MPD Metropolitan Police support department decide to put undercover officers in the crowd? Was there intelligence that they had that was or was not passed on to the Capitol Police and what did the Capitol police do with that evidence, if they got it? he added.

The shocking footage shows a plainclothes MPD officer climbing construction scaffolding while encouraging other protesters to do the same. He also yelled go, go, go and keep moving as protesters stood on a ledge outside the Capitol pavilion, urging them to move forward towards the building.

The footage was obtained after January 6 defendant William Pope of Topeka, Kansas filed a motion on February 21. While my descriptions of the undercover MPD officers are accurate, the media and the public should not have to rely on my descriptions alone, Pope wrote.

It is in the interests of justice that this exhibit in support of my motion be seen by all.

Back in the days when I was still considered safe enough to have my own Me column in the Spectator, my brother Dick bumped into one of my more red-pilled fans at a party and got a bit of feedback. Tell your brother hes right on quite a lot of things, but he still has some way to go before he gets to the bottom of everything!

Like what? I asked Dick indignantly, for even then I considered myself an-honest-to-God, without-fear-or-favour seeker-after-truth.

He says youre wrong on 9/11 for a start, reported Dick.

OK. Well where am I supposed to look?

Apparently its all down to Building 7. You need to look into Building 7.

OK, I said. Ill look into Building 7.

But of course I never did. Well not properly. Certainly not enough to experience the Road to Damascus moment that so many in the red-pilled community imagine is going to happen when you utter those two talismanic words Building and Seven.

Some of them were at it again after a recent episode of London Calling, the weekly podcast in which I try unsuccessfully to persuade my good friend Toby Young that it really is a conspiracy not a cock up. You should have mentioned Building 7, one of them said. He presented you with an open goal but you didnt mention Building 7, said another.

No I didnt mention Building 7. Deliberately so. For Building 7 is not the magic bullet so many of its proponents imagine it to be.

Obviously now that I am down the rabbit hole, I understand the significance of Building 7. Its the one that collapsed by itself without having been hit by either of the two (alleged) hijacked aeroplanes. This, according to Truthers, offers cast iron proof that the whole 9/11 operation was an inside job. If Building 7 was brought down by demolition charges and it clearly wasnt brought down by aeroplanes doesnt this call into question the entirety of the rest of the official narrative?

Well yes it does. But only if you are in the right mindset.

I refer you to my example from the beginning. When I first looked into Building 7 I was still in my Normie phase. Even as I glanced cursorily at the details my mind was already making excuses as to why they didnt matter: untrustworthiness of the websites propounding them; unreliability of witnesses; sheer outrageousness of the very notion that the US authorities might wish to wage war on their own people; etc.

If you are emotionally and intellectually invested in the Normie paradigm which is also the mainstream paradigm, and the one to which the vast majority of people subscribe then no amount of killer information is going to sway you.

As Ive said before, you are never going to truth bomb Normies into awakeness.

And its not necessarily because they are stupid, or compromised, as we Awa...

A Dutch organization funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is facing scrutiny over one of its videos featuring children as young as four being asked wildly inappropriate questions about sex and masturbation.

While the Rutgers Foundation is desperately trying to deep-six the video, the right-wing Dutch populist party Forum voor Democratie has drawn attention to its contents in an effort to expose what the group is really up to, reported Reduxx.

Rutgers, like Planned Parenthood in the U.S., claims to be in the business of educating and supporting young people in sexual matters but also advocates for gender ideology and abortion appreciation in schools with the help of other activist groups.

The group states on its website, We want young people to be free to enjoy their sexuality and relationships, while respecting the rights of others in an inclusive society, admitting to advocating for progressive language and norm-setting on sexuality education.

Rutgers kicked off an initiative targeting children on March 20 called What do I like? as part of a national Spring Jitters Week campaign to expand sexual education in primary schools.

Learning about your body, talking about what you like and a positive self-image. This is the focus this year during the Week of Spring Jitters, an annual project week about relationships, sexuality and resilience in special and primary education, Rutgers wrote on its project page. We want to make children think about what they like and teach them to express their wishes.

When children in primary education learn about their bodies, relationships and sexuality from a positive message, they know better what they like and what they dont like, said Elsbeth Reitzema, a so-called sex education expert at Rutgers.

Atlantic staff writer Olga Khazan cited Reitzema and her work with Rutgers in an article last year in an effort to stand up her argument that contrary to the claims of conservatives, parental groups, and Republicans, talking to kids about graphic sex acts wasnt a matter of grooming them to be abused by pedophiles....

The Western media's cynical ballooning of Ukraine's hopes, saying it can win a war against Russia, is completely diabolical. 

Militarily and economically Ukraine stands no chance. China backing Canada to march on Washington a second time would have better odds.

When was the last war Ukraine fought? What is their army made of? When in their short history have they defeated a foe that would give them the confidence to take on an entire civilization on its doorstep? It's ridiculous.

This war is tragic and absurd.

The neocons in the United States bear the ultimate responsibility for this moral and geopolitical disaster, having been the ideological fathers of Russophobia in the post Cold War era, but European leaders and governments also share the blame. 

The West in their hands has sunk politically, morally, culturally, and economically. Engaging in proxy warfare, using entire nations as a means to an end, is what a culturally sick, militarily weak, and morally depraved empire does as it teeters towards the dustbin of history. Look to the 7th century for a couple of examples. 

The Western obsession with Russia has led to countless examples of tragedies and needless human suffering. If it was not for the British slicing India into two to thwart Russian access to the Indian Ocean at the end of WWII the horrors of partition would not have come about. 

The political Islamization of Afghanistan and Iran would also not have happened if the United States did not determine in the 1970s that the Soviet Union was a greater enemy than sects of fanatical Muslims.

Point to anywhere on the map, in any period of modern history, and you'll find case after case of how the irrational Western hatred for Russia has led to political destabilization, humanitarian disaster, and long-term conflict.

Ukraine is just their latest victim.

Back in April we documented an edition of the BBC Radio 4 programme The World This Weekend in which listeners heard a Jordanian interviewee claim that even before 1967 Jordan respected the rights of Jews to go and come to their holy places. That entirely false claim went without any challenge whatsoever from presenter Jonny Dymond.

JORDANIAN DISINFORMATION GOES UNCHALLENGED ON BBC RADIO 4

CAMERA UK submitted a complaint to the BBC, requesting the correction of that disinformation and pointing out that:

Not only did Jordan not respect the rights of Jews during its illegal occupation of parts of Jerusalem between 1948 and 1967, it destroyed dozens of synagogues and desecrated the ancient Mount of Olives cemetery. In direct contravention of the 1949 armistice agreements, Jordan did not permit Jews access to their holy sites or to the Jewish cemetery on the Mount of Olives during that period and, notably, Israeli Arabs, were also denied access to the Al Aqsa mosque on Temple Mount.

On April 26^th we were informed that it would take more time to address our obviously straightforward complaint. On May 17^th we received another e-mail from the BBC stating that the time frame for the handling of the complaint had expired.

On June 8^th we received the following:

The rhetoric surrounding the Ukraine war has reached a fever pitch. Public commentators and media personalities are irresponsibly using hateful language to simplify the conflict down to a battle between good and evil. The soldiers of both sides are being described as "orcs" and "ghouls," imagery reminiscent of the vile propaganda published during World War One. 

Such terms are deliberately used to mobilize public opinion and aid military recruitment efforts but one of the long-term consequences of such a dumbed-down media strategy is that it makes the eventual peace deal a hard pill to swallow for both the victor and the loser, thereby increasing the possibility of further conflict down the line.

Chinas Position on the Political Settlement of the Ukraine Crisis - Published on February 24, 2023:

2. Abandoning the Cold War mentality. The security of a country should not be pursued at the expense of others. The security of a region should not be achieved by strengthening or expanding military blocs. The legitimate security interests and concerns of all countries must be taken seriously and addressed properly. There is no simple solution to a complex issue. All parties should, following the vision of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security and bearing in mind the long-term peace and stability of the world, help forge a balanced, effective and sustainable European security architecture. All parties should oppose the pursuit of ones own security at the cost of others security, prevent bloc confrontation, and work together for peace and stability on the Eurasian Continent.

Farmers in Ireland are protesting government proposals to cull livestock including up to 200,000 cows in an effort to meet national and European Union (EU) climate targets.

According to Irelands Independent, up to 65,000 dairy cows and 10% of the livestock herd would have to be removed from the national herd every year for three years at a cost of 200m ($215.2 million) if the farming sector is to meet its climate targets.

The figures come from an Irish government document the Independent obtained following a freedom of information request.

National climate targets in question include a 51% reduction in emissions by 2030 the target year for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals  and net zero carbon emissions by 2050, the Independent reported.

According to the Irish Mirror, a 25% emissions reduction goal has been set for the agricultural sector by 2030.

The government document proposes farmers receive compensation of up to 5,000 ($5,381) for each cow that is culled.

According to Remix News, the plans were first outlined in 2021. A report at the time recommended culling up to 1.3 million cattle to reduce emissions to sustainable levels.

There are approximately 2.5 million dairy and beef cows in Ireland, according to the Irish June Livestock Survey. Of these, 1.6 million are dairy cows which have increased by 40% in the past decade while beef cows total approximately 913,000, representing a decrease of 17% over the same period, the Irish Mirror reported.

Separately, Irelands Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a 115-page report in March that recommended effective abatement of livestock emissions of approximately 30% plus ruminant livestock number reduction [of] up to 30%.

According to the EPA, the countrys agricultural sector is directly responsible for almost 38% of the countrys greenhouse gas emissions, as reported by the Irish Mirror.

Terwijl op de sociale media talloze beelden te zien zijn die aantonen dat het Oekraense offensief desastreus voor hen verloopt, en CNN meldt dat volgens Washington de Oekraense verliezen 'substantial' zijn, bericht de gecensureerde staatsomroep NOS:

Hoe effectief zal de Russische luchtmacht zijn? En hoe effectief de Oekraense luchtverdediging? Volgens oud-commandant Landstrijdkrachten Mart de Kruif zijn dat de cruciale kwesties die zullen bepalen hoe het Oekraense tegenoffensief, dat de afgelopen dagen echt op gang is gekomen, zal uitpakken. 'Het is een onderbuikgevoel, maar ik denk dat we over een week meer weten.'

Mart de Kruif, die weet minder dan ik, en werd toch 'commandant' van de 'Landstrijdkrachten.' Wat is er aan de hand met Mart's 'onderbuik'? Collega's stop hiermee, jullie maken jezelf voor eeuwig belachelijk. Interview deskundigen die jullie niet vertellen dat zij 'over een week meer weten.' Als jullie geen contacten hebben, dan kan ik jullie namen van officieren geven die hoge posities hebben bekleed bij de Amerikaanse strijdkrachten. Of anders, ga een ander vak zoeken.

Advisors to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Thursday recommended approval of AstraZenecas new monoclonal antibody, which the drugmaker said is designed to protect infants and toddlers up to age 2 from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

The drug, nirsevimab, would be delivered to newborns in a single shot at birth or just before the start of a babys first RSV season, or as a larger dose in a second RSV season in children who are highly vulnerable, CNN reported.

As an epidemiologist, I can tell you it takes considerable training and scholarship to determine whether or not a study is valid and to determine if the conclusions are supported by the data. When it comes to childhood vaccines, the world is becoming skeptical of the vaccine industry since the CDC ACIP panel has added the EUA unsafe, ineffective mRNA COVID-19 vaccines for infants starting at 6 months of age.

With the ever expanding ACIP schedule of vaccine quantity and intensity of injections there has been a skyrocketing rate of autism. This has triggered scientists to go back and look at the studies published at the time to reassure parents that routine vaccines did not cause autism. Because so many shots are given at once, it is probably not any individual product that is the culprit, rather hyper-vaccination of a bundle of vaccine products that invokes a neurotropic, cytokine mediated inflammatory reaction that in some causes febrile seizures, autism, and immediate death. There are factors related to susceptibility including older parents and siblings with autism, but it remains that hyper-vaccination is a likely provocateur.

Madsen et al used Danish automated health data to evaluate the association of the MMR at age 15 months and autism. Only 40/422 had charts reviewed to verify the diagnosis of autism. Because it is an important diagnosis, all 422 cases should have been adjudicated by two blinded expert child psychiatrists. This study was unlikely to find an association from the outset since not all the vaccines where considered as a bundle and compared to children who went natural meaning completely unvaccinated with any product.

From early in the pandemic, the government has been promising the public that it was taking COVID-19 vaccine safety very seriously, and that the vaccines had been subject to the most intense safety monitoring program in U.S. history. ICAN likes to confirm these claims for itself but when it tried to do just that, it uncovered that the FDA actually deviated from long-standing protocols concerning vaccine safety.

Since May 9, 2008, the FDA has had vaccine safety procedures in place detailed in a Standard Operating Procedures and Policies (SOPP) document. This document describes the procedures that the [FDA] staff should routinely follow to coordinate rapid responses to complex vaccine safety issues, and discusses a Vaccine Safety Team whose key purpose  is to coordinate [FDA] rapid responses to vaccine safety issues and to serve as a resource [] to identify data and policy needs pertaining to vaccine safety.

One office in the FDA is crucial to this goal and acts as the official contact for VAERS and is responsible for processing and review of the reports, as well as for forwarding those reports to the appropriate contacts within CBER for further action and follow-up. For example, its staff members identify VAERS adverse event reports that need a rapid response and complex coordination, after which they are supposed to immediately inform certain FDA management who then alert other sub-agencies.

Given the lofty talk by federal health agencies claiming that COVID vaccines were subject to the most rigorous and accurate review processes globally, one would think that the FDA, at a minimum, subjected them to at least these already ridiculously weak pre-existing standards for vaccine safety monitoring.

But, after ICANs attorneys submitted records...

Israelis protest judicial reforms and government inaction on Arab crime deaths

Over the course of the past few days, Ukraine has thrown two of its best-trained, best-equipped mechanized brigades into offensive operations against entrenched Russian defenders in the Zaporozhye sector of the front lines.

These two brigades had been hand-picked for this job, having been equipped with modern Western tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, supported by Western-supplied artillery, and using NATO-specific tactics shaped by NATO-provided intelligence and NATO operational planning. In short, these two brigades represented a top-level NATO-level capability, the epitome of the nexus between Ukraine and the Collective West in their ongoing war to destroy Russia.

They failed.

As the world comes to grips with the imagery of destroyed US-manufactured M-2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and German-made Leopard 2A6 tanks abandoned and burning on the Ukrainian steppe, the harsh truth regarding the futility of its larger designsthe strategic defeat of Russiais starting to sink in.

The reality, however, is that Ukraine was never going to achieve its stated objective of punching thro...

The Russian Orthodox Churchs press service revealed late last week that Patriarch Kirill mediated an unusual prisoner transfer. According to their statement, at the request of the Hungarian side, a group of Ukrainian war prisoners of Transcarpathian background, who participated in active service, was transferred to Hungary. The Ukrainian Deputy Foreign Minister later said that Kiev wasnt informed of this ahead of time, which prompted all sorts of speculation about this event.

Some background context is in order before going any further. Most Westerners might not be aware of it, but Hungary is very worried about the human rights of its co-ethnics in Ukraine, who found themselves in that former Soviet Republic as a result of post-World War II border changes. Whats now known as Zakarpattia Oblast had been part of Hungarian Civilization for over a millennium up until the interwar period when it was first part of Czechoslovakia before being given to Ukraine by the Allies.

Kiev began to crack down on all its minorities after the Western-backed spree of urban terrorism popularly known as EuroMaidan overthrew that countrys government in 2014. Ethnic Hungarians linguistic rights were rescinded, including the freedom for members of this community to study in their native language. They were then conscripted by Kiev to fight in the NATO-Russian proxy war that broke out 15 months ago despite the majority of them wanting to be left alone to live in peace with everyone.

Having brought the reader up to speed about this groups background, they can now better understand why they were transferred to Hungary instead of Ukraine. The Hungarian news portal Telex published a detailed analysis here about their speculative legal status at the time that they entered that country. It suggests that Russia released them from their formal status as prisoner...

Shortly after the fabled Ukrainian counteroffensive finally started, it became increasingly apparent that NATO military equipment and training wont be enough for the Kiev regime forces to penetrate Russian defensive lines.

With the Ukrainian offensive now underway, Kiev so far has virtually nothing to show in the way of gains, whereas images of wrecked Leopard tanks and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles used by Ukrainian troops have already started circulating on social media.

Even though the United States and its allies have been generously supplying Ukraine with armaments and military vehicles during the ongoing conflict, it appears that Ukrainian forces are institutionally and operationally unable to successfully absorb the wide and inconsistent variety of equipment and weaponry while under fire and duress, said US Ret.Lt.Col Karen Kwiatkowski.

This is the fault of the US and NATO which seeks to ride the back of Ukrainian patriotism in order to both confront and harass Russia, with an aim to take over Ukraine&#821...
