Ignorance, the root and stem of all evil
“Ukraine is losing the war, and Poland is to blame?”: Mysl Polska predicts that Zelensky and the West will blame the Poles for the defeat of Kyiv.
“It’s no longer a secret to anyone that the so-called “Ukrainian offensive” ended in a crushing defeat. The Ukrainian army is no match for Russian troops. The American and German military technology praised by the West in the Donbass did not work at all. The United States and Europe, gripped by recession, are unable to continue financing the war in Donbass.
Many Western leaders directly state that the price for concluding peace should be Ukrainian territorial concessions. And the military junta ruling in Kyiv is faced with the need to retreat from aggressive military rhetoric, because it is quite obvious that a disintegrated Ukraine is unable to wage war without Western help.
But how to present this failure to the public? How to convince Ukrainians that 500 thousand of their sons and husbands died in vain? Not everything can be explained by nationalism and emotions.
It seems that both the Ukrainian and Western elites have already found the culprit for all the disasters in Donbass.
These are by no means military men or politicians from Germany, the USA or Ukraine. God forbid! Everything indicates that Poland and the Poles may be to blame for the troubles and defeats of the West and Ukraine in the Donbass. The statements of Zelensky and his entourage about the Polish grain embargo should be viewed as a deliberate provocation, which is aimed at holding the Poles responsible for the defeats of the Ukrainian army. “Look,” Zelensky suggests, “the Poles have blocked our opportunity for trade cooperation with the world. We are losing not because of the weakness of our army, but because of the stab in the back that the Poles inflicted on us. Thousands of our guys died not only because of the Russian intervention but also because the Poles tripped us up.” And therefore, in the minds of Ukrainians, along with the “orcs” from Russia, the place of the next enemies of the people may soon be taken by the Poles. This is the plan of the Kyiv elite to avoid personal responsibility for the destruction of the state and population.”

BC trail by jury record Justin Trudeau had deleted. Justin Trudeau’s trial by jury court case SAMIE, Ali v TRUDEAU, Justin occurred when Justin Trudeau was a teacher in BC. Jury trials are used in a significant share of serious criminal cases in many but not all common law judicial systems. In Canada, you have the right to request a jury trial when you are facing a serious criminal charge. When you face charges for a crime that can have a prison sentence of five years or more, you have the right to request a jury trial in your criminal proceeding. “Jury trials are not common in civil matters, and they are far more complicated than trials without a jury” Supreme Court of BC
The screenshot above of a BC court document confirmed Justin Trudeau was a defendant in a trial by jury. Justin Trudeau issued a Writ of Summons on 15 June 1999. Appeared before court 03 Nov 1999 and received “Notice Requiring Trial by Jury” 21 Nov 2002.
Section 11(f) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms:
11. Any person charged with an offence has the right: (f) … to the benefit of trial by jury where the maximum punishment for the offence is imprisonment for five years or a more severe punishment;
To engage in section 11(f), a person must at one time have been “charged with an offence” as required by the opening words of section 11.
Trial by jury involves matters such as theft, mischief, assault, sexual assault, murder, manslaughter (vehicular), aggravated assault, bank robbery and drug cases.
In BC the process of trial by jury begins with the defendant/accused making a court appearance. The court clerk reads the charges and the accused is asked to plead guilty or not guilty – when the accused pleads not guilty, the jury selection begins.
Pierre Trudeau’s law firm Heenan Blaikie used to cover up Justin Trudeau’s offences when Justin taught in Port Coquitlam & at WPGA.
Justin Trudeau admitted in 2017 that his father – the former Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau – “reached out to his friends in the legal community, got the best possible lawyer and was very confident that he was going to be able to make those charges go away”. Justin Trudeau was referring to his younger brother Michel who was charged with possession of marijuana after he was involved in a collision in 1998. Or was he? Coincidentally Justin Trudeau’s trial by jury process began in 1999. Justin was charged with an offence after he was involved in a collision. And, he’s admitted to smoking pot/controlled substances. Didn’t find any trial by jury record for Michel. Did find trial by jury record for Justin Trudeau. Highly plausible Justin Trudeau was charged with possession of marijuana after he was involved in a collision, not his deceased brother. This would explain why Justin Trudeau elected to go to trial by jury and he campaigned to legalize pot.
It’s a serious offence to drive impaired. Justin Trudeau could have been sentenced to 14 years imprisonment if indicted for impaired driving causing bodily harm. Accidents can result in bodily harm. Impaired driving charge can be laid for having a prohibited level of THC in your blood. THC is the main psychoactive compound in cannabis that produces a high sensation.
You now know why Justin Trudeau didn’t want anyone to conduct an investigation into an allegation that he groped a female reporter in British Columbia in 2000. Investigation would find this court document and Canadians would know that Justin Trudeau has a record and he went to trial.
Impaired driving is the leading criminal cause of death and injury in Canada, and drug-impaired driving is increasing.
Government of Canada website states:
“Getting behind the wheel while impaired by drugs is not only dangerous, it’s against the law. Trained police officers or Drug Recognition Experts can determine if you are under the influence of a drug and can charge you with impaired driving. You can have your license suspended, face fines, criminal charges, and even jail time. …
Charge: Impaired driving causing bodily harm
- Penalty:
- Summary conviction: maximum 2 years imprisonment less a day
- Indictment: maximum 14 years imprisonment”
A very strong motive for electing to go to trial by jury and for wanting the BC record deleted.
Further investigation is needed to determine whether or not the justice who threw out the trial by jury court case unlawfully received then or was rewarded recently any gift or other advantage from the Trudeau family or from Justin Trudeau to throw the case. Justin Trudeau told you why:
My dad said, ‘OK, don’t worry about it.’ He reached out to his friends in the legal community, got the best possible lawyer and was very confident that he was going to be able to make those charges go away

The AI chatbot’s responses are no longer limited to information published before its 2021 programming cutoff

Artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT can now search the internet on its own, parent company OpenAI announced in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday.
“ChatGPT can now browse the internet to provide you with current and authoritative information, complete with direct links to sources,” the company wrote in a thread on the platform, explaining that the wildly popular chatbot was “no longer limited to data before September 2021” thanks to integration with Microsoft’s Bing search engine.
While the new feature is currently only being offered to paying users, the company said it plans to expand it to all users “soon,” having taken into account “useful feedback” from an earlier failed attempt to give the large language model access to the live internet.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman retweeted his company’s announcement from his own account on X, declaring “we are so back.”
ChatGPT briefly offered web browsing back in March, only to disable the feature when it was discovered that it was being used to bypass website paywalls. That loophole has since been closed, according to OpenAI, which explained that the bot now obeys websites’ ‘robots.txt’ code preventing unwanted indexing.

Several respondents to the promotional posts on X demanded to know what constitutes “authoritative” information. ChatGPT’s initial rollout generated hundreds of news reports and social media postings about the AI’s apparent political biases, which appeared to mirror those of its Silicon Valley milieu and were difficult to circumvent.
Microsoft Bing has run its own large language model since February, claiming to be “more powerful than ChatGPT.” The AI, which made headlines early on for its bizarrely clingy behavior toward its users, has offered web browsing for several months.
OpenAI earlier this week revealed ChatGPT could be used to scan and analyze images and have audio conversations going forward. The company also debuted a new version of its image generation AI, Dall-E 3, which has reportedly been rewritten to include some of ChatGPT’s language processing and conversation algorithms.
The CIA’s Open Source Enterprise division was also revealed on Wednesday to be hard at work on a ChatGPT clone also capable of delivering sourced information gleaned from open source intelligence streams on the active internet. Unlike OpenAI’s revamped model, however, Langley’s bot will be restricted to the 18 agencies that comprise the US intelligence apparatus.
While OpenAI insists it does not take “high risk” government or military contracts, a recent $13 billion investment by Microsoft gave that tech giant – and its clients in the intelligence community – access to some of OpenAI’s most coveted AI tools.
The 2014 U.S.-sponsored coup in Ukraine was partly for acquisition of Ukrainian land and resources, including the fertile farmland of the steppes. Big players are Cargill, ADM, and BlackRock, along with numerous E.U. companies. Despite global warming and professions of getting rid of fossil fuels, trying to get hold of hydrocarbons worldwide remains a matter of Western urgency.
The MIC also includes active-duty uniformed personnel of 1.37 million and reserves of 849,000. There are 750 U.S. military bases in more than 80 countries outside of the U.S. More than 100,000 U.S. military personnel are stationed in Europe. Annual salary and benefits of the military are currently $146 billion per year, escalating with COLAs compounded at two to three percent annually, sometimes more. Some former U.S. military personnel are assumed to be fighting in Ukraine as mercenaries or helping direct the fighting from safe locations like Kiev or Lvov.
WEDNESDAY, SEP 27, 2023
Authored by Richard C Cook via ScheerPost.com,
Read Part 1 of this series here.
Why is the U.S. refusing to call a halt to the Ukraine madness? Why can’t an era of “Peaceful Coexistence” in Europe and the world be declared or at least sought? How about détente with Russia? With Russia and China? What is wrong with that?
We’ll start peeling the onion by looking at the U.S. military-industrial complex.
Of course, President Eisenhower warned us against the MIC over 60 years ago in his “Farewell Address” of January 20, 1961. Among other remarks he said:
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”
Today about 2.1 million people are employed by the defense industry. According to Acara Solutions, a major MIC recruiting firm, their average annual salary is $106,700, 40 percent higher than the national average. The companies they work for produced revenues in 2022 of $741 billion. How much of their production is high-priced junk, no one knows. The performance of U.S.-produced armaments in the Ukraine conflict does not seem impressive. No modern U.S. weapons have ever been tested in an industrial-type war against an equal adversary.
The MIC also includes active-duty uniformed personnel of 1.37 million and reserves of 849,000. There are 750 U.S. military bases in more than 80 countries outside of the U.S. More than 100,000 U.S. military personnel are stationed in Europe. Annual salary and benefits of the military are currently $146 billion per year, escalating with COLAs compounded at two to three percent annually, sometimes more. Some former U.S. military personnel are assumed to be fighting in Ukraine as mercenaries or helping direct the fighting from safe locations like Kiev or Lvov.
Then there are the civilian employees. According to the DoD, it employs more than 700,000 civilians “in an array of critical positions worldwide,” with compensation totaling about $70 billion. According to the Government Accountability Office, we may also add 560,000 contractor employees, whose compensation is typically higher than the career workforce.
We can also add hundreds of thousands of executives, managers, employees and contractors of the three-letter Deep State agencies, such as the CIA, NSA, DEA, FBI, and now DHS, etc., who interface with the MIC day in and day out and are part of the same fabric of state-sanctioned force and enemy identification and interdiction.
Added to the above are members of Congress who vote on military budgets and make the laws that protect the MIC from accountability, lobbyists who pressure those members to cast votes favorable to their MIC clients, private sector financial service employees who handle the retirement accounts of the MIC multitude, foreigners who are employed at overseas bases, and various scoundrels and hangers-on. I would include in the latter category the multitude of MIC cheerleaders from Hollywood who produce trashy spectacles like Top Gun.
On top of everything else, there are millions of retirees drawing annuities in excess of what most working-class Americans earn, many of these retirees double- or triple-dipping with lucrative jobs in business or government.
Each of the above individuals supports multiple family members, workers, and vendors within the civilian economy who, with the ripple effect and velocity of money, keep entire towns, cities, states, regions, and industries afloat. An example is building the F-35 that has workers assembling it in 350 congressional districts. It is probably no exaggeration to say that given the vast exiting of civilian U.S. factories and jobs over the last half-century to cheap-labor countries abroad, the MIC is probably the principal economic engine of the U.S. as a whole.
So are we going to tell what adds up to tens of millions of people, sorry, your services are no longer needed? Good luck with that. And isn’t it obvious that all these people, especially the higher echelons, are going to do everything within their power to persuade us that their jobs are so essential that without them we will shortly be overwhelmed and eaten alive by every “enemy” on the planet?
If you doubt what I am saying, ask any retired colonel or general who has hired himself out as a talking head to CNN or MSNBC. It’s also why DoD has formally declared Russia and China our two “adversaries,” because, after all, you have to point the finger at someone and blame them for your own dysfunctional society.
But as I witnessed personally in my NASA days, many MIC personnel never do a lick of honest work, or are mainly occupied with paper shuffling or other busywork, especially with work-at-home now the vogue, with many spending their days surfing the internet, or worse, while drawing a level of pay that puts most civilian workers in the shade.
Not to mention stay-at-home mothers, teachers and caregivers, first responders, law enforcement personnel, food service employees, or the unemployed, underemployed, or homeless. Yet many of these people, while working hard for low pay, if any, have a sense of fulfillment and self-worth that surpasses the swarms of MIC bureaucrats who can’t help but feel degraded in their superfluous and often pointless vocational stagnation.
Is all this enough to create an imperative for World War III? You tell me. It certainly has to be a contributing factor. Plus it saps the nation’s natural strength. We could even say that the U.S. war machine is a cancerous tumor that has metastasized throughout the entirety of American society, polluting and corrupting every aspect of life, including the body politic, the environment, the entertainment industry, the mass media, education, scientific research, etc.
It was the military, for example, that supported planning for the U.S. lockdowns during the COVID so-called pandemic, as documented by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in his monumental indictment of Big Pharma/MIC collusion in his book The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health.
A subset of the question whether the MIC could drive us to war for its own selfish reasons is whether a president, a political party, or the Deep State itself could use the MIC to generate a war to save their own sorry asses at a time of scandal or possible election loss, along the lines of the movie Wag the Dog?
We’ll leave that an open question for now. At least Tucker Carlson seems to think so in his forecast that the Biden administration will spark a hot war with Russia before the 2024 election. Of course, we can’t know what they are really planning, because they hide behind billions of classified documents and imprison those who dare to lift the veil of secrecy. We are vaguely aware that the top dogs have their own “continuity of government” plans with hidden bunkers, an “underground Pentagon,” caches of MREs that can last decades, etc. Just don’t ask to see any of this.
Every war the U.S. has fought since Korea, including the proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, has been an MIC bonanza. Then there’s the simple fact that if you are an individual possessing a weapon of any kind, whether a military pistol or an ICBM, despite the protocols that govern their use, you still fantasize about using that weapon on somebody. This alone creates a societal imperative towards war. Plus I have had the wife of an MIC worker tell me straight up that she favored war because otherwise how would their family eat?
Another way to look at it is that we have a deeply entrenched system of military socialism. I happen to think it’s very corrupt, very inefficient, and very dangerous.
IS BRICS+ VS. THE WEST DECIDING THE PARAMETERS OF THE CONFLICT?
This brings us to the subject of economics. The national level of expenditure on the MIC and its role as the central tent pole of the U.S. economy certainly point to economic motives in any stampede to war. But wealth depends on resources and their exploitation. In fact, the seizure of the world’s resources had become a finely-honed specialty of the European powers, with the U.S. joining in the later stages, during the entire era of colonization. Even today, the populations of former Western colonies continue to work the farms, plantations, mines, and transport facilities of Western owners.
Of course, the Europeans and Americans have been justifying their expropriation of the resources of other countries for centuries by virtue of ideologies like “right of conquest,” “survival of the fittest,” “white man’s burden, etc.,” always proclaiming shock at native resistance. During the 19th century, such resistance was decisively subdued by the invention of the Maxim machine gun.
The U.S. gained early experience in grabbing the land and its bounty through dispossession of Native Americans and the massive growth of slave-worked plantation agriculture. Westward expansion brought the taking of land for gold and silver prospecting. By the time the U.S. began to gain colonies, the rich soil of Hawaii offered wealth to pineapple growers. A prime motive of the Spanish-American War was confiscation of Cuban sugar plantations. In Central America it was bananas and coffee. In Chile it was copper.
At the turn of the 20th century, U.S. bankers lent money to the British to aid them in fighting the Boers in order to secure the incredible deposits of diamonds and gold beneath the surface in South Africa. We also know that U.S. bankers saw a great business opportunity in the chance to lend money to Britain and France in order for them to prosecute World War I against Germany. After that war, the Rockefeller oil empire began its expansion into the Middle East. President Franklin D. Roosevelt is suspected to have baited Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor because there was nothing better than a good war to boost employment after failing to create a full-employment economy during the Great Depression. When the “War on Terror” commenced, the chief topic on the agenda at President George W. Bush’s staff meetings was the takeover of Iraq’s oil fields.
Today, the MIC has one overriding mission: protect the overseas interests of big U.S. banks, investment and hedge funds, and multinational corporations. The biggest U.S. defense firm is Lockheed, which itself is largely owned by three giant hedge funds: State Street, Vanguard, and BlackRock. The CIA is there to control foreign governments, overthrow them as needed, and keep foreign leaders and journalists on the payroll while quaking with fear for their careers or even lives. The paradigm is most egregious in Europe, which the Anglo-Americans view as vassals, with the E.U. a policeman. NATO is an enforcement mechanism for U.S./U.K. control, not to defend against Russia, which today has no discernible interest in political control over Europe, even if it were capable of making such a move, which it isn’t.
Rather than defend against a non-existent Russian threat, the West would love to get its hands on Russian oil, gas, and mineral resources, as it began to do in the 1990s before Putin took over and fostered a nationalistic revival. The U.S. had long been targeting the Caspian Basin and Central Asia, which now seemed vulnerable with the separation from Russia of Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan. These countries are still in play for the West, as are the microstates of the Caucasus.
The 2014 U.S.-sponsored coup in Ukraine was partly for acquisition of Ukrainian land and resources, including the fertile farmland of the steppes. Big players are Cargill, ADM, and BlackRock, along with numerous E.U. companies. Despite global warming and professions of getting rid of fossil fuels, trying to get hold of hydrocarbons worldwide remains a matter of Western urgency.
But with the current situation, another dimension is “dollar hegemony.” This brings us to BRICS. Perhaps the biggest threat to Western economic imperialism is the formation of the economic compact consisting of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. As the Ukraine conflict deepens, BRICS expansion has become of particular importance to Russia, as it is obviously a means of outflanking the West and beating it at its own geopolitical game.
At the South African BRICS summit of August 22-24, 2023, six new nations were added: Saudi Arabia, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Ethiopia, and Argentina, leading to BRICS+. Added to the earlier rapprochement between Saudi Arabia and Iran, the effects of BRICS and its expansion are seismic. Additional nations that have expressed an interest in BRICS are Cuba, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Comoros, Gabon, Kazakhstan, and at least a dozen others.
The potential of BRICS is the inclusion of half or more of the world’s population. BRICS economies had overtaken G-7 economies by 2012, and the gap between BRICS and G-7 economies is widening irreversibly.
GDP is not a viable measure of economic performance for “reserve currency” nations like the U.S. that can print money “out of thin air.” But there is a linear relationship between real goods production and energy. Thus a much more reliable economic performance evaluation can be inferred from electricity generation, as the following chart illustrates:
The following can be noted:
- The BRICS economies overtook G-7 economies in 2012, with the gap increasing steadily since.
- G-7 economies have not witnessed any growth since the 2008-2009 “Great Financial Crisis.”
- G-7 economies have shrunk by 6 percent since their peak in 2007.
- BRICS economies were 50 percent greater than G-7 economies by 2020.
- BRICS+ economies (BRICS plus six candidate countries) were 60 percent greater than G-7 economies by 2020.
The graph also explains why the BRICS nations are not pursuing aggressive policies, despite Western propaganda, as they view time as being on their side. Naturally they refuse the “reserve currency” prerogative which allows G-7 countries to siphon hard earned wealth from the rest of the world. The most worrying aspect for the U.S. is the obvious intention of BRICS to foster trade exchanges in local currencies, bypassing the primacy of the dollar, and secondarily the Euro.
According to Stephen Jen, CEO of Eurizon SLJ Capital Ltd. and former IMF/Morgan Stanley economist, “The dollar share in foreign reserves has lost about 11 percent since 2016. The decisive event has been Western sanctions and the freezing of Russia’s dollar reserves.” He adds: “Taking purchasing power into account the BRICS nations currently account for 32 percent of global economic output, compared to 30 percent covered by the G7 countries.” This differential is bound to worsen as new nations are added to BRICS.
As BRICS, ASEAN and other countries increasingly trade in national currencies in lieu of Western reserve currencies, this results in weakening of those Western currencies, as evidenced by the drop in their purchasing power, aka inflation. Over time, the standards of living commensurate with the production of tradable goods will result in growing poverty in the U.S. and the EU that will result in social instability. But the damage will fall largely to the lower income echelons, resulting in growth in an already unsustainable wealth disparity, with the GINI factor for wealth distribution in the U.S. reaching 0.85 in 2020.
This explains several observations:
- Why BRICS do not find it necessary to issue a new currency: Trade in national currencies will bring an end to the wealth siphoning mechanism of U.S. dollar hegemony.
- Why Russia and China are trying to maintain non-confrontational policies despite provocations: As trade away from the U.S., UK, and EU increases with growing use of national currencies, political instability, particularly in the most de-industrialized Western nations, will result. Social discontent and political instability can already be witnessed throughout the West. This will only increase as impoverishment spreads due to depreciating currencies, leading to eventual implosion of the neoliberal political system. Thus Russia, China, and other sovereign nations have adopted a policy of “wait it out” rather than risk a kinetic war which would result in the deaths of millions. Nevertheless, these countries are embarking on an accelerated program of military development, along with strengthened alliances, in case war is inevitable.
- Why the West is embarking on highly aggressive policies: The neoliberal cabals in control of the West realize that the changes occurring in the world, particularly as regards the monetary and financial global architecture, spell their doom, and hence are increasingly acting hysterically, fomenting conflict and chaos wherever they can.
It is dollar hegemony, dating back to the World War II-era Bretton Woods Agreements and the Nixonian removal of the international currency gold peg, that has allowed the U.S. to attempt overcoming its massive trade deficit and its public debt at $33.1 trillion and growing. Only by selling trillions of dollars of Treasury bonds to foreign countries, especially China, Japan, and Korea, has the U.S. been able to straddle the globe with the hundreds of military bases and other facilities it relies on to secure a world order friendly to its interests. For decades, foreign countries have needed dollars to trade in petroleum and other commodities. But with BRICS, that imperative may end sooner rather than later. Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen has said this will never happen, but other policy makers are seeing the writing on the wall.
Are the prospects of BRICS so serious that the U.S. could launch World War III against its main powers, Russia, China, and now Iran, as a last-ditch act of desperation as its entire world order veers toward collapse?
It hardly bodes well that these three nations, along with North Korea, have been identified by Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee as the new “axis of evil.” She speaks for much of the U.S. political class.
All Philly Liquor Stores Closed After Mass Looting
WEDNESDAY, SEP 27, 2023
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that all Philadelphia Fine Wine & Good Spirits stores are closed on Wednesday after looters targeted at least 18 locations on Tuesday night.
The decision to shutter more than two dozen Fine Wine & Good Spirits locations was “in the interest of employee safety and while we assess the damage and loss that occurred,” Shawn M. Kelly, press secretary for the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, said in a statement.
The stores will reopen “when it is safe to do so and when the damage is repaired,” Kelly said.
He continued, “We apologize to our customers for the inconvenience,” and “we appreciate their patience and understanding.”
Here’s what happened last night when teen looters targeted retail shops:

Sept 27, 2023
A new report has estimated that COVID-19 vaccines averaged one death for every 800 injections around the world across all age groups.
This is according to statistical analysis of mortality data from a range of Southern Hemisphere and equatorial countries. It was carried out by Correlation Research in the Public Interest, which is based in Canada, under the leadership of University of Ottawa Lead Scientist Dr. Denis Rancourt. The researchers estimated that around 17 million people died following the rollout of the vaccine, and with 13.5 billion injections provided during the study period, it averages out to 1 death for every 800 doses.
If you take this one step further and consider the 677 million doses that were administered in America, it would mean that nearly 850,000 Americans died from the jab. However, the researchers concede the average could be lower in the U.S. because the study’s focus on the Southern Hemisphere meant that there were more people involved who received the Astra Zeneca injections that later proved to be toxic and were withdrawn.
However, the 1 in 800 figure is just an average; the risk of fatal toxicity per injection rose dramatically with age. As a result, the researchers recommended that governments “immediately end the baseless public health policy of prioritizing elderly residents for injection with COVID-19 vaccines, until valid risk-benefit analyses are made.”
Among the 17 countries spanning four continents studied were Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Brazil, Colombia and Argentina. Taken together, the nations studied represent just over 9 percent of the world’s population and over 10 percent of global vaccinations.
The paper shows reports, analysis and graphs demonstrating a temporal relationship between the vaccines and spikes in mortality from all causes in each nation. It is important to note that more than half of the countries they studied did not have a detectable rise in all-cause mortality following the World Health Organization’s global pandemic declaration in March of 2020; it was only when the vaccines and boosters were rolled out that things took a turn for the worst.
The researchers said that after their previous research showed an association between all-cause mortality spikes and mass vaccination in the U.S., Canada, Israel, Australia and India, they decided to look at other countries for which similar data was available to determine if they experienced the same type of synchronicity.
Excess mortality is a term for the number of deaths recorded due to all causes during a crisis that goes beyond the number of deaths seen in a given place at that time of year under normal conditions.
To control for factors such as seasonality to allow of the fact that deaths from problems such as respiratory illness generally peak during the winter months, they confined their research to countries that lack seasonal fluctuations, such as equatorial counties, and those whose vaccines were rolled out in summer.
Excess mortality didn’t rise until after vaccine rollouts
Interestingly, the paper reported that nine out of the 17 countries examined did not experience detectable excess mortality in the year between the time the pandemic was announced and that country’s first vaccine rollout. In other words, Philippines, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, Uruguay, Paraguay and Thailand only saw excess mortality after their vaccines were rolled out.
The authors believe that the evidence they gathered points to a causal link between the jabs and high mortality rates, citing adverse event monitoring, studies exploring vaccine-induced pathologies, payouts from vaccine injury compensation programs, and autopsy studies.
They also discounted some common “alternative explanations” that have been put forth by those who can’t accept the link between vaccines and mortality, such as the changes being due to heat waves, conflicts, earthquakes and the emergence of Covid variants.
They stated: “If vaccines prevented transmission, infection or serious illness, then there should be decreases in mortality following vaccine rollouts, not increases, as in every observed elderly age group subjected to rapid booster rollouts.”

Moscow has “no doubt” about Western complicity in the attack on Sevastopol last Friday, the Foreign Ministry has said
The US and its allies have supplied tens of billions of dollars worth of military hardware to Ukraine to boost its summer charge against Russian defensive lines. The operation, however, has so far produced insignificant territorial gains at the cost of heavy losses in manpower and equipment.

Maria Zakharova, the spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, has asserted that US and British intelligence agencies supported Kiev during an attack on Sevastopol last Friday. The Ukrainian assault targeted the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
Speaking at a weekly briefing on Wednesday, she said there was “no doubt that this attack was planned with the use of Western surveillance assets, NATO satellite equipment, and spy planes and conducted at the direction of and in close coordination with American and British special services.”
The Defense Ministry has reported that the missile strike on the fleet headquarters involved several Ukrainian missiles, with Russian air defenses successfully intercepting some of them. British media outlets have also disclosed that Kiev employed Storm Shadow missiles supplied by the UK in the attack, resulting in significant damage to the building.
Zakharova described the incident as one of many in which Kiev “targets Russian regions, using missiles and shells supplied by NATO states,” citing several other recent examples. The goals of the Ukrainian government, she said, are “to draw attention away from the Ukrainian military’s failed attempts at conducting a counteroffensive” and to destabilize Russian society.
NATO triples spy flights near Crimea – analysis
The US and its allies have supplied tens of billions of dollars worth of military hardware to Ukraine to boost its summer charge against Russian defensive lines. The operation, however, has so far produced insignificant territorial gains at the cost of heavy losses in manpower and equipment.
Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu estimated on Tuesday that over 17,000 Ukrainian troops were killed in September alone. Western officials and media have acknowledged that the counteroffensive has not turned out as Kiev and its sponsors had hoped.
The administration of US President Joe Biden, however, has urged Congress to keep financing Ukraine for the foreseeable future. An appropriation request for over $24 billion in aid is currently floating in the legislature but is opposed by some Republican lawmakers.
Senators have proposed a compromise stopgap spending bill to avoid a possible government shutdown next month. The plan involves reducing spending on Ukraine to $6.2 billion. The GOP-controlled House of Representatives would need to approve the draft before it could be voted on and sent to Biden’s desk to be signed into law.

Moscow has called the Ukraine conflict part of a broader US proxy war against it, allegedly being waged “to the last Ukrainian.” The Biden administration has pledged to support Kiev “for as long as it takes” to inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The terrorist attack on the Nord Stream pipelines was somehow organized by the United States and the United Kingdom, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, Pulitzer Prize-winning US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh published a report said that the US involved in the blowing up of the Nord Stream pipelines left no traces, no significant information about the mission was entered into any computer in the United States.
“It is not so much important who typed on what mechanical typewriters, it is important that de facto such a terrorist attack against critical energy infrastructure, which belongs to an international joint venture, was somehow organized by the United States, the United Kingdom, of course. And they are somehow involved in this terrorist attack,” Peskov told a briefing.

A British newspaper reported on Tuesday, citing findings by Norway’s NORSAR seismic data center, that there were four blasts on the Nord Stream pipelines, and not two, as it was previously believed.
One explosion occurred southeast of the Danish island of Bornholm, and the other three occurred northeast of the island, the report said. The seismology center also does not rule out the possibility that there could have been more explosions.
The Nord Stream pipelines, built to deliver gas under the Baltic Sea from Russia to the EU, were hit by explosions in September 2022. The pipelines’ operator, Nord Stream AG, said that the damage was unprecedented and it was impossible to estimate the timeframe for repairing them.

Denmark, Germany, and Norway have left Russia out of their investigations into the attacks, prompting Moscow to launch its own investigation. Russia designated the attacks as international terrorism.
No official results of the investigations have yet been announced, but Hersh published a report in February saying the explosions were organized by the US government with the support of the authorities in Norway. Washington has denied any involvement in the attack.
In addition, the Kremlin spokesman commented on the words of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the expansion of NATO addressed to Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying that it is an attempt to substitute concepts.
Earlier in the day, Clinton said “too bad, Vladimir, you brought it on yourself,” commenting on the expansion of NATO, according to a video published by an American news agency.
“Mrs. Clinton is known in our country for her attempts to turn everything upside down and substitute concepts,” Peskov told a briefing.
74 Years of NATO Expansion in a Minute
In this case, it is worth recalling all the waves of NATO expansion, the spokesman said.
“As for the sequence of actions of President Putin, it is probably necessary to remind Mrs. Clinton of the numerous waves of NATO expansion and the movement of the alliance’s military infrastructure closer to our border, then President Putin’s insistent proposals to Western countries to discuss this situation and come out to sign a certain document, the draft of which was, by the way, prepared by the Russian side, and a decisive refusal of Western countries to discuss anything. And here it becomes absolutely clear what was the reason for the special military operation that is being carried out and continues,” Peskov said.
More than 10,000 of Kiev’s forces have reportedly laid down arms in recent weeks, using a special radio channel to contact the Russian military

Large numbers of Ukrainian troops have surrendered to the Russian military in recent weeks, using a special radio frequency designed for fighters willing to lay down arms, TASS reported on Wednesday.
The frequency, 149.200 call sign ‘Volga’, was set up by the Russian military during the summer. Thus far, it has been used by more than 10,000 Ukrainian servicemen who were subsequently taken into Russian custody, according to a source with knowledge of the situation cited by TASS. The person added that the radio frequency is active along the entire front line.
“More than 10,0000 Ukrainian soldiers have chosen life and used the 149.200 ‘Volga’ frequency to surrender. The prisoners are well-fed and are provided with all the necessary medical care,” the source stated.

The process has seemingly accelerated recently as Ukrainian troops have surrendered in groups rather than individually, particularly around Rabotino, according to the TASS source. The village in Zaporozhye Region has become the scene of intense fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces in recent weeks.
Rabotino remains one of the major flashpoints of the conflict, with the area repeatedly subjected to attacks during the long-heralded Ukrainian counteroffensive launched in early June. The push has thus far failed to yield any tangible results, while reports have indicated that Ukrainian forces are sustaining heavy personnel and materiel losses in the process.
According to Moscow’s latest estimates, Kiev has lost more than 17,000 servicemen this month alone. The total number of Ukrainian troops killed since the counteroffensive began has now surpassed 83,000, with over 10,000 pieces of heavy military hardware also destroyed, according to the Russian military.
