On this day and every day –

God is in Control
. . . and His Grace is Sufficient, so . . .
Keep Looking Up


Hopefully, every Sunday, we can find something here that will build us up a little . . . give us a smile . . . and add some joy or peace, very much needed in all our lives.

“This day is holy to the Lord your God;
do not mourn nor weep.” . . .
“Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet,
and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared;
for this day is holy to our Lord.
Do not sorrow,
for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”


To Live is Christ . . .

Philippians 1:21 says, “For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Most people focus on the second part of the verse, “to die is gain,” and contemplate the joys of heaven. But we should not overlook what comes before. The importance of the phrase “to live is Christ” cannot be overstated. In all honesty, this phrase should be central to every Christian’s life.

In this statement, the apostle Paul is saying that everything he has tried to be, everything he is, and everything he looked forward to being pointed to Christ. From the time of Paul’s conversion until his martyrdom, every move he made was aimed at advancing the knowledge, gospel, and church of Christ. Paul’s singular aim was to bring glory to Jesus.

“To live is Christ” means that we proclaim the gospel of Christ. Paul preached in synagogues; he preached at riversides; he preached as a prisoner; he preached as an apostle; he preached as a tentmaker. His message was constant: “Jesus Christ and him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:2). He brought the message of Christ’s sacrifice to kings, soldiers, statesmen, priests, and philosophers, Jews and Gentiles, men and women. He would preach to literally anyone who would listen.

“To live is Christ” means that we imitate the example of Christ. Everything that Jesus did and said, that’s what Paul wanted to do and say. The church benefitted from his godly example: “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ” (1 Corinthians 11:1). What would Jesus do? That’s what we want to do.

“To live is Christ” means that we pursue the knowledge of Christ. We want to know Christ better and better each day. Not just a set of facts about Christ, but Christ Himself. “I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead” (Philippians 3:10-11).

“To live is Christ” means that we are willing to give up anything that prevents us from having Christ. Paul’s testimony in this regard: “Whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him” (Philippians 3:7-9). We cling to the promise of our Lord in Mark 10:29-30 that our sacrifices for Jesus’ sake will be repaid a hundredfold.

“To live is Christ” means that Christ is our focus, our goal, and our chief desire. Christ is the center point of our mind, heart, body and soul. Everything that we do, we do for Christ’s glory. As we run the “race marked out for us,” we lay aside the entangling sin and worldly distractions, “fixing our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:1-2). He is our life.

THE DOME OF WAR

Cartoon published 10/14/2023

Israel has a defense system known as the ‘Iron Dome,’ which fires missiles to destroy incoming rockets. About 90 percent effective, it doesn’t deter terrorist groups from firing such rockets. Israel’s dome can’t compete with the ‘Dome of War.’ We’re seeing it in action right now. Here are some things that cannot penetrate that dome:

FREE SPEECH:

Trump recently commented that Hezbollah was ‘very smart.’ Outrage instantly rained down from the corporate media as well as politicians on both sides of the aisle as the media took it out of content. Trump was not trying to compliment the leaders of Hezbollah—he was merely saying something that is true. He also said President Xi was smart. It’s acknowledging reality, but the Dome of War tends to discourage an alignment with reality. 

Similarly, many at the US far-left universities are anti-Semitic. They actually praised Hamas and defended Palestine. They were met with similar outrage and many students who dared to voice their support of Palestine were threatened. The powers that be wanted to make sure such students never receive employment once they graduated. This is anti-free speech measure. I’ve said a lot of stupid things in college that I regret, and I know what it feels like to be threatened because I used my free speech. Some on the left told me they’d make sure I got fired. It was disturbing, but I was self-employed. Still, I lost a lot of commercial work due to their reaction to my cartoons. The ability to make a living should not depend on having politically correct opinions. 

We must remain free to discuss what’s going on in Israel. It doesn’t mean we support ’the terrorists.’ We should be able to question why Israel failed to detect the massive attack. Apparently Egypt warned them. Our own intelligence operations should have known, but I guess they’re too busy spying on Trump-supporting Americans.

LESSONS OF HISTORY:

Hamas and their Palestinian supporters don’t ever seem to learn their lesson. Their goal is to drive allJews out of the territory and into the sea. They do not recognize Israel—instead they claim the Jews are ‘occupiers’ who need to be eliminated completely from Palestine. Anyone who knows a bit of history has learned that Jews have always lived there—they’ve certainly been there a lot longer than Islam has existed. The Jews could rightly claim that Israel existed long before anyone heard of Palestine—and if anyone needs to be driven to the sea it’s the Muslims. Israel won’t do that because they are far more civilized than Hamas. 

If one could go back in time and warn the Romans not to fall into the trap at Cannae, I doubt they would still go ahead and allow Hannibal’s forces to destroy 50,000 of their men. If someone warned Hamas not to keep making the same mistake of attacking Israel, they would ignore it and keep doing that very same thing—even though it means the death of thousands of Palestinians! Palestinian terrorists are so brainwashed by hate that they can’t learn the lessons of their own history. Herodotus would be wincing.

LOGIC AND REASON:

After the monstrous attack on Israeli civilians—including children, the corporate media did not care much about honest reporting. They cared about beating the war drums as loudly as they could. Mark Levin’s already high voice reached an even higher pitch. He could have exploded a wine glass. Loudmouth Sean Hannity and his tough-talking sidekick and chicken hawk, Lindsey Graham, all demanded more US aid to Israel—both in the form of billions of US tax dollars as well as munitions. Something is not logical with this, though—but similar to suppressing free speech, one is not supposed to apply logic to the situation—only the emotion of anger, which everyone knows can be leveraged to further the goals of the powerful. (Think of 9-11).

America is already sending Israel $3 billion annually and it was actually codified into law. They are a prosperous, industrious, and smart nation, but apparently they need constant help from the US. They should be able to take care of themselves, but the war means we must send them even more. Israel is NOT our 51st state, even though many US politicians hold dual citizenship. (Maybe the US is Israel’s subsidiary.) What beggars logic is the Biden administration has also sent Hamas many millions of dollars in ‘aid.’ Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan meant Hamas got US weapons from the Taliban! Even worse, it is said that Ukraine has sold arms they received from US to Hamas. To make matters still worse, Biden has sent Iran many billions of dollars! Funding both sides of the war is not logical. 

Do not dare employ logic and reason, though—you need only to stay mad! What Hamas did was abhorrent. End of story. Don’t look deeper—just do as your told! The war mongers want to leverage what happened and get us into a war against Iran. Israel wants that war too, but they need US help. A nuclear-armed Iran is too much of a threat to them. It can be argued that this may be why the far-right Netanyahu ‘allowed’ the attack by Hamas.

PEACE:

The Dome of War repels the desire for peace. Any Palestinian that proposed peace will most likely be assassinated. Don’t you dare talk about peace! Jihad!

There can be no peace with people who have been so thoroughly brainwashed to hate Israel. To be sure, the Palestinians will soon be crying for another ceasefire to buy them time. They will portray themselves as victims. Critics will urge that Israel ‘go easy’ on Palestinian civilians while Hamas terrorists shield themselves by hiding in schools and hospitals. (They would use their own children as human shields if they could). The terrorists possess neither honor nor dignity. Only hate. Peace stands little chance with such people.

NEGOTIATION:

This doesn’t mean Palestine won’t negotiate to buy time. In the year 2000, it looked like Clinton would make a landmark achievement by hammering out a peace deal between Israel and the leader of the Palestinians, Yasser Arafat. I followed the developments and it struck me that Israel was doing its best to settle a deal that favored Palestine. Peace seemed to be at hand. But no, Arafat changed his mind! He wanted ALL the Jews out of the region. I remember hearing him barking, “Jihad, Jihad, Jihad!” Arafat bought time for the terrorists to regroup and attack again.

EMPATHY:

The War Dome prevents empathy and understanding between the combatants. Both sides paint their enemies as inhuman monsters. It happened in the US when nuclear bombs were dropped on innocent men, women, and children in Japan. If there’s one thing that’s especially not allowed within the Dome of War, it’s empathy. Love is not allowed, only war.

THE LAW:

International Humanitarian Law supposedly regulates conduct during armed conflict. The Geneva Convention established these laws and Israel is expected to follow them. Hamas, of course, does not. They are murderers who have no problem attacking Israeli schools or killing Jewish babies. Israel has every right to destroy Hamas, but that means destroying a great many so-called ‘innocent’ Palestinians as well. We are already hearing how Israel’s strikes should be ‘proportional.’ This is music to Palestinian ears. It means that they will be allowed to recover, regroup, and strike Israel again and again.

All of this only underscores our Founding Father’s very sound advice: Avoid foreign entanglements.

There is no such thing as ‘proportional’ when you surprise attack someone, because:

A) the attacker is expecting retaliation, so there is no ‘surprise’, they’re ready

B) Israel isn’t going to rape and murder individual men, women and children

So ‘proportional’ is not even a possibility, because you can’t surprise someone who is expecting to be attacked, and anyone who isn’t a psychopath isn’t going to rape and murder in retaliation anyway.

What you certainly can do, and what is entirely justified, is to kill the enemy.

The battlefield, by definition, is wherever the enemy is. There is no ‘home base’ safe zone, it’s not some children’s game.

If HamISIS commits an atrocity, a crime against humanity, an Act of War, raping and murdering over a thousand people, and then runs and hides somewhere, wherever they go is where the battlefield is.

If HamISIS hides behind a bunch of supposedly ‘innocent’ people, those supposedly ‘innocent’ people are on the battlefield, and they better move — immediately.

No ‘innocent’ person would, or even could, protect rapists and murderers from justice.

If so-called ‘innocent’ people decide to stay on the battlefield to protect the rapers and murderers, that’s their free-will choice. They become accomplices to atrocities and crimes against humanity after the fact, and get the same treatment the rapers and murderers do.

It doesn’t matter who the attackers were, and it doesn’t matter who the victims were. It has nothing to do with Israel per se, and nothing to do with Palestine, per se.

The same would apply to any scenario where any group of murdering rapists attacked some other group of people.

It is incredible that any part of this could be controversial.

AGREED!

We have forgotten how to wage war. We need to remember.

Insofar as a “proportional” response from Israel is to be expected, well Hamas thinks that Israel has NO RIGHT TO EXIST.

That would mean that Israel could wipe Hamas (and, as you say, their “accomplices”) from the face of the Earth, proportionally.

For those who are not registered with Twitter and want to access a linked Twitter post and also want to see the replies:
Click on the Twitter link and in the browser window which will open, replace the “https://twitter.com/” part of the linked address with “https://nitter.net/”
and then you will have full access to the post.

On the other hand, if you what to post a “nitter.net” post as a Twitter post here do the reverse and it will correctly show as a Twitter post,

Also, if the “nitter.net” post has a YouTube link you will not go directly to YouTube. It will show up as a “piped” link. This means you will only indirectly link to YouTube and cannot read comments etc. on YouTube.
If you want to do that, just replace the “piped” part of the address with “youtube.com”

She Is From CNN…

 … which is a euphemism for lowlifes. Normal people do not work for CNN, moral freaks, war criminals and satanists do. 

Israel-Hamas war: How the unverified claim about beheaded babies spread — ‘Same misinformation, different war’. The reports first surfaced on Tuesday, days after the start of the latest conflict between Israel and militant group Hamas, and were quickly reshared. 

Read the whole thing, it is fascinating. Now this CNN “reporter” squeezes apology from herself:  
comment image
No normal person, of course, believes her. This IS the nature, this is Exhibit A of modern media. It just happened so that CNN is a euphemism for lies and war crimes, other corporate ones are not much better. Most, not all, modern journos have no morals other than urges to report “sensation”. Practically all of them are addicted to atrocity porn because it sells and because it is one of the very few ways for people like this “reporter” from CNN or blood thirsty harpies like Christian Amanpour, or deranged Maddow, among many others, to have their hefty paychecks, because with their backgrounds in “telecommunications”, “journalism” or occasional political BS-science degree they are useless human beings sublimating many of their psychological and life problems into aggression and readiness to push any agenda as long as it contributes to the aim of achieving the pinnacle of what James Kunstler described as national “self mind-fuckery”. We have been here before, haven’t we?

The PLO was moderate and secular? 😮🙄🤔😏😂🤣😂
At best they wore two coats. One to fool the West and Jimmy Dore the other for the Fundamentalists and their desire to put the Israel and world to the sword.

para59r

I would submit that Jimmy Dore is joining history mid stream to score gotcha points on what can viewed as a political and strategic screw up. Hamas was always Arafat’s militant arm of the PLO born by them not by Israel. Israel may of watered that beast in hoping the world would see the treachery they’d involve themselves in, and did it at a time where they thought they could control outcomes. Ditto for Hezbollah, the Iranian version of Hamas.

Hamas and Hezbollah are nothing more than the face of Fundamentalist Islam. Not Radical Fundamentalist as that term is a contradiction. It is what Islam is according to the Koran. The only time an Islamic nation comes out smelling like a rose is when the nations leader is indeed a secularist and can resist the strident voices of Islam by military might and installing his own clerical class along with passing out the goodies.

pgroup2

You do not speak that truth enough, friend. Our blog needs as much of your knowledge as it can get.

So few people understand the reality of the Moo-slime ‘religion’ even after all the terror and the years of talking. I’m always a bit taken aback when I’m in a conversation about terrorism and the other person reveals that he/she doesn’t know who Phil Haney was. Even today, I hear people talking about the sleeper cells in the USA as part of a Hezbollah military operation in one sentence and then go on to talk about those same cells being so emotionally inflamed by islamist culture that they could ‘pop off’ at random which is purportedly why our intelligence agencies get taken by surprise.

It never dawns on them that a military operation cannot have any emotional power that can randomly ‘go off’. I even have heard this ’emotional powder keg’ blah-blah a couple of times on Bannon’s Warroom without correction or challenge and I wonder why this sort of crap is allowed from otherwise bright MAGA people.

Unchallenged, this terrorizes unsuspecting people who then tend to see any Middle Eastern person as potentially a jihadi. This dulls their ability to objectively analyze whether any jihadi traits exist in that ME person. It’s one thing to be alert and another thing to be in constant fear.

Instead of making excuses for intelligence failures, maybe we should use Hercules’ method to clean out the stables at Langley and the Pentagon.

Chartbook 245: Gaza, beyond de-development to disposability and destruction
FTA:

“Gaza was not always like this. Favorably placed on the Eastern mediterranean, Gaza has been a place of human settlement for more than 5000 years. A natural stopping point for travelers and merchants heading back and forth between Africa and Asia, it featured prominently in the Old Testament. Gaza was a member of the Philistine confederacy of five cities along the coastal plain. Gaza was visited by King David and Alexander the Great. Falling under Ottoman rule in 1516, Gaza was a major battlefield in the struggle for the control of Palestine in World War I. Only after three major engagements did the British finally manage to capture it in 1917.

Under the Mandate, during the riots of 1929 the small but long-established Jewish communities was evacuated to Tel-Aviv for fear of massacre.

In 1948, as the British withdrew, the Egyptian military occupied the coastal strip around Gaza. The population at the time consisted of roughly 80,000 Palestinians in four small towns: Gaza, DeirAl-Balah, Khan Younis, and Rafah. In a matter of weeks this small strip of land became a place of refuge for well over 150,000 refugees fleeing from from villages and towns in the south of Palestine in the face of the Haganah’s ethnic cleansing. The effect was to triple the population and to create Gaza as we know it today, an overcrowded, haven for refugees.

After 1948, the UN set up an agency UNRWA to support the Palestinian refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank, as well as in Gaza. For the following two decades under Egyptian rule, Gaza’s population had access to Egypt for work and study.

Then came the 1967 war and the vast expansion of Israeli control into the Sinai and West Bank. The first Israeli census in Gaza in 1967 counted a population of 394,000, of which at least 60% were refugees. To govern the territory at arms length, Israeli adopted Moshe Dayan’s policy of “open bridges”. The military minimized its footprint and Gaza and the West Bank were integrated as far as possible into the Israeli economy. In 1981 a formal border and border checkpoints were established between Gaza and Egypt for the first time, running through the border town of Rafah. Meanwhile, attracted by much higher wages, by the 1980s approximately 45 percent of the Gazan workforce was employed in Israel.

The result, given the relative dynamism of Israeli economy, was considerable growth in incomes in Gaza. But it was also in this period that Sara Roy coined the phrase de-development. Though income levels in Gaza were rising, as Roy pointed out in 1987, it was not developing. Indeed, it was being systematically de-developed. Palestinian workers were sucked into low-wage work in Israel, undermining Palestine’s own business sector and the standing of Palestine’s own landowning and bourgeois interests. Between 1970 and 1985, even as the GDP of the West Bank and Gaza increased, total employment in the Palestinian economy stagnated. The result of surging real incomes and stagnant production in the Palestinian territories was a yawning trade deficit with Israel.”

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

Hamas is bred, from cradle to grave, to kill. Their “creation” has become irrelevant to me. If one bred fighting dogs for entertainment or betting what happens when they become too dangerous to handle…they’re put down, without emotion because they were not household pets that became feral..they were bred for that trait.

We see this every day here in Germany, thanks to the alternate media. A few years back, just after Merde-Kuh opened the gates, an extended family member was shopping at a LIDL nearby and was nearly accosted by three scoundrels speaking Arabic who would have caught her (and likely raped her) were she not a championship runner and had she not left basket and groceries behind.

Perps got free food, but not the white meat they were after…..

Happens every day. The YSM/MCM won’t cover it unless it’s too big to ignore. And the legal system turns away and sends the perps for psychiatric evaluation rather than punishment for heinous crimes… Of course, up north (Dortmund, Essen, Hamburg, Berlin, etc.) many of the police are Moslems. And they won’t go after their own… Turkish/German dual citizens are always reported as Germans whenever crime stats are listed… 😡

Yours Truly: Greg Hunter’s interview with Dr. Ryan Cole.

PULLQUOTE FROM THE INTERVIEW — Please spread as far and wide as possible:
Dr. Cole says one of the very big problems with the CV19 vax [the COVID-19 “vaccine”] is that it destroys the immune system and stops your ability to fight cancer.”

Read that again:the CV19 vax [the COVID-19 “vaccine”]…destroys the immune system and stops your ability to fight cancer.

IMO, that statement needs to be known by EVERY PERSON WHO HAS ANY COVID-19 “VACCINE” IN THEIR BODY. That statement is made BY A MEDICAL DOCTOR WHO IS A PATHOLOGIST AND WHO HAS DONE THE RESEARCH.

IMO, that statement needs to be known by EVERY PERSON WHO KNOWS SOMEONE WHO IS “VACCINATED.”

IMO, that statement needs to be known by EVERY SCHOOL BOARD, EMPLOYER, MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, OR OTHER ENTITY STILL PUSHING THE COVID-19 “VACCINES.”

IN ADDITION, and the following ALSO needs to be spread as far and wide as possible:

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” contain modRNA, a lab-created dangerous “enhancement” of natural mRNA. The body would, under NORMAL circumstances, recognize the presence of foreign mRNA as an “enemy” and destroy it. The COVID-19 “vaccines” have elements in them that EVADE the body’s “enemy recognition system”, which would NORMALLY RECOGNIZE THE FOREIGN modRNA IN THESE “VACCINES” AS AN ENEMY. The lipid nanoparticles in these “vaccines” play a role in this.

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” destroy the IgG3 “fight off and clear” immune system cells of the body, replacing them with IgG4 “tolerate but never clear” cells. THIS INCLUDES THE “BIVALENT COVID-19 BOOSTER SHOT”, also called the “2023-2024 Formula.”

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” target the CD4 and CD8 T-cells of the body, which are crucial in the functioning of the immune system and the fighting off of infections, damaging or destroying them. THIS INCLUDES THE “BIVALENT COVID-19 BOOSTER SHOT”, also called the “2023-2024 Formula.”

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” WILL DAMAGE OR DESTROY HEART TISSUE. THIS DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION IS PERMANENT. THE HEART CANNOT REGENERATE DAMAGED OR DESTROYED TISSUE.

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” WILL CAUSE MYOCARDITIS IN “VACCINATED” PERSONS REGARDLESS OF AGE OR SEX.

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” TRANSMIT TO THE FETUS OF AN UNBORN CHILD VIA THE “VACCINATED” EXPECTANT MOTHER, AND TO THE BREAST MILK OF A “VACCINATED” NURSING MOTHER.

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” CAN, AND DO, CAUSE FETAL ABNORMALITIES, FETAL DEATH, AND MISCARRIAGE.

It is now known that the COVID-19 “vaccines” contain the dangerous, FOR LAB USE ONLY lipid nanoparticles ALC-0159 and ALC-0315 (listed by their chemical ingredient names in the FDA-issued Fact Sheets on the “vaccines.”) The human body HAS ONLY LIMITED, IF ANY, MECHANISMS TO COMPLETELY BREAK DOWN AND ELIMINATE THESE ITEMS.

It is now known that elements of the COVID-19 “vaccines” REMAIN THE IN THE BODY OF THE “VACCINATED” PERSON FOR AN INDEFINITE AMOUNT OF TIME.

THE PLAN TO WIPE OUT HAMAS
As refugees crowd the border with Egypt, Israel prepares to hit Gaza City with US-supplied bunker busters
A nuclear bunker buster, also known as an earth-penetrating weapon, is the nuclear equivalent of the conventional bunker buster. Wikipedia

The new Seymour Hersh piece says Zio warchiefs don’t have confidence in their infantry and are going to rely on more heavy aerial bombardment in a Vietnam War-style “Free Fire Zones” setup – push out some civilians, then say everyone who stays behind is Hamas. The plan according to Hersh is to start in the north with Gaza City, obliterate the place block by block, followed by attacking the underground infrastructure with the newest 5,000-lb bunker-buster JDAMs, which are claimed to penetrate up to a depth of 30-50 meters and kill everything within a half-mile radius, if not in the blast itself then with concussion. The low-quality infantry is sent in only after, to mop up

Very true. The West is getting desperate, so they will try and do everything, including blowing up the world. It happened before and will happen again, but this time, some forces recognize and understand the “Great Game” and its chess board mentality, which is scarier because of the ultimate weapon of mass destruction scenario.

The chess board mentality includes the US. Allowing an invasion of hostiles is part of it. The hordes continue to stream in by the thousands every single day. One day they will rise up, some out of anger at not getting what they think they deserve or some out of actual militant action.
We’re being set up on that chess board. Will people be so quick to sympathize with the armed men roaming their neighborhoods shooting indiscriminately because they “had” to come here because of bullshit climate change or violence or hunger ? Do they think that offering a plate of cookies will save them ? Do they think that even offering their own home will save them ?

(a btw on the Rave Concert… The jury has yet to assemble on why it was playing there when all this happened with the possibility that it was put there deliberately as a soft target for the attacks Israel should have known were coming, thus the phrase Hamas was given enough rope to hang themselves. That said though Israel was not the trigger pullers. Hamas was and they did such of their own volition, but as minor importance this should be looked into because the only proper response to knowledge of attacks should have been to alert and stiffen the border. )

If they are going to drop bunker-busters that “kill everything within a half-mile radius”, then why waste any effort obliterating the place block by block first?

Wouldn’t the blast/concussion from the 5,000 Lb. bunker-busters collapse just about any structure on the ground built to Gaza construction codes?

Israeli Conflict Takes Eschatological Turn + Ukraine War Updates

PAVACA

From the article. Larry quotes Seymor H…

The major issue for the Israeli war planners is a reluctance, despite the mobilization of more than 300,000 reservists, to engage in a door-to-door street battle with Hamas in Gaza City. One veteran of the IDF, who served in a high post, told me that half of the Israeli Army has been engaged for the past decade or more in the protection of the increasing number of small settlements scattered in the West Bank where they are bitterly resented by the Palestinian population. “The Israeli planners don’t trust their infantry,” the insider said, nor their willingness to go to war but what could be a disastrous lack of combat experience.

Larry again…

We should know in the next few days if Israel is ready to make good on its vow to wipe out Hamas on the ground with its Army or, as Sy Hersh reports, will engage in a massive bombing campaign and hope that tactic finishes Hamas.

This likely applies to Hezbollah as well. I can’t see Hezbollah trying to actually do a cross border invasion into Israel with out everyone else doing it also. They’d get wiped out. Meanwhile the last time Israel chased Hezbollah into their own areas they got their noses bloodied pretty bad so they’ll be none of that. Both will keep their distance in my opinion and just toss ordinances at each other till they get tired of such.

Must be heart breaking for the Palestinians to say such. Maybe next time, if they are allowed a next time they will not be so accommodating to Hamas and their ilk…

This is an informative article by Jonathan Turley about the purpose of the 14th Amendment, but also about how John Anthony Castro is judge-shopping and using lawfare to try to remove Trump from the ballot in every state.

https://jonathanturley.org/2023/10/13/federal-court-asked-to-address-14th-amendment-effort-to-bar-trump/

…I tend to favor broad standing rules, but Castro’s open effort to secure review from liberal, Democratic judges should offend not only these jurists but most Americans. Castro received a J.D. from the University of New Mexico and LLM from Georgetown University.

Courts have universally denounced judge shopping. Most, like the federal court in northern Illinois, denounce the practice: “No one should be able to manipulate the assignment system in order to determine in advance which judge will get a case where the assignment is by lot.”

Obviously “forum shopping” does occur. Lawyers will seek to file in the most favorable jurisdiction, including prosecutors. Yet, I have never seen a lawyer openly discussing the manipulation of filings in search of liberal judges to achieve a particular result. The filing is accusing Castro of actually withdrawing lawsuits when he receives a judge who is not reliably liberal.

Castro must realize that he is insulting these liberal judges and making this already novel challenge even more difficult. However, it is an example of using cases to appeal to the court of public opinion. Castro knows that such raw political moves will thrill many in this age of rage.

For advocates of the 14th Amendment theory, Castro could not be a worse figure to move this claim into the courts. He adds a noxious means to a novel theory to bar Trump from ballots. Of course, this is all being done by advocates who claim that they are defending democracy but denying the ability of others to vote for one of the leading candidates for the presidency.

Guest Column: Palestinian TV Teaches Kids The Way to ‘Jihad Street’by Abigail R. Esman
Special to IPT News
May 20, 2014

comment image

Every day, hundreds of millions of children in more than 120 countries settle in to watch their local versions of “Sesame Street” or similar shows inspired by the Muppet model. They learn to read, to write, to count. They learn about things like “sharing,” and “friendship,” and how to be kind to others. They learn what it is to love.

Except in Palestine, where the lessons from Hamas children’s television are aimed at something else: to kill.

Take, for instance, “Pioneers of Tomorrow,” with its fluffy talking bee who encourages viewers to “throw stones” at Jews, and a pretty young host who, in one episode, praises a little girl for her desire to be a police officer and “shoot Jews.” Or consider the show’s transformation, some years ago, of Mickey Mouse, into an Islamic supremacist character named Farfour. When international protests erupted, producers gave Farfour an honorary farewell: in his final episode, he is “martyred” by Israelis.

For years, reports have emerged of children’s programming in the Palestinian Territories, mostly on Hamas-run Al-Aqsa TV, whose shows often teach Palestinian children not just to hate Americans and Jews, but to kill them –preferably through acts of martyrdom, or suicide bombings. As the New York Times reported in 2009, when “Sesame Street” announced plans to broadcast in the region, “The official Hamas channel, Al-Aqsa television, has several children’s shows, and Al-Aqsa’s director of children’s programming, Abu Amr, told me the network is considering starting a station devoted entirely to children. Al-Aqsa TV’s most famous (and infamous) children’s program is ‘Tomorrow’s Pioneers,’ in which Saraa, a Palestinian girl, and several animal characters teach ideological lessons: why it is bad to speak English and good to memorize the whole Koran; how the Danes are infidels who should be killed. Occasionally an animal character will die as a martyr for Palestine.”

Other programs, both for children and for adults, have also included children who speak glowingly of their suicide-bomber fathers and promote violent jihad, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). In one such show, the ADL says, “One of the girls said ‘I want to fire missiles at the Jews and be martyred like my father.’ One of the boys also said that he wants to follow in his father’s path, ‘I want to follow the path of Jihad like daddy and I want to be martyred like daddy.'”

And then there are the programs that don’t just teach hate, as the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported in 2007:

Palestinian children in Hamas-controlled Gaza are being taught to take an active role in terrorist operations against Israel and are thus placed in mortal danger by those who should be responsible for their safety and well-being. The children, too young to fully understand even the meaning of death, are taught to aspire to such “martyrdom” in children’s television shows produced by the Hamas.

Every Monday afternoon Al-Aqsa TV, the Hamas’ main television station, broadcasts a children’s program called “The Gifted”. In a special episode marking the beginning of the school year, a two-year old toddler named “Ahmad” was featured. Ahmad was praised for his expertise in the area of “holy war” (jihad).

Interestingly, many of the recent Al-Aqsa programs, including the ‘Pioneers of Tomorrow” episode praising the little girl who hopes to grow up and shoot Jews, are in fact reruns of shows first broadcast as long as nine years ago – an effort, it would seem, to reach a new generation of impressionable minds.

Unsurprisingly, such programming is not unique to Palestine: Iranian children’s shows have also been known to glorify suicide bombings, while Al Aqsa programming continues to be broadcast in other countries in the region, including Saudi Arabia.

But more significantly, Al-Aqsa programming now reaches into Europe, thanks not only to satellite access, but to European mosques which serve as broadcasting centers.

The result? “It is hard to overlook how hatred imported from Beirut and Gaza resurfaces in the form of daily acts of anti-Semitism in schools and athletic clubs, on streets and in the subway,” German magazine Der Spiegel reported as far back as 2008. “Young children raised to be anti-Semitic are already using the phrase ‘You Jew!’ as a derogatory expression in kindergartens and on playgrounds. Schoolchildren berate their teachers, calling them Jew dogs, for not offering Sharia-compatible instruction, and Jewish schoolchildren are attacked and feel compelled to switch to Berlin’s Jewish high school and to hide the insignia of their Jewish faith — the yarmulke and the Star of David — when in public.”

That a government anywhere would actively advocate murder, genocide, and terrorist activity, training children as young as four years old to hate and kill, is almost inconceivable. But it seems equally unfathomable that the international community now seeks to legitimize such a government. And it’s not just about the astonishing lack of outrage in much of the mainstream media (this, while one can scarcely imagine the same shoulder-shrugging if such programs were instead aimed at killing Muslims– or anyone else, for that matter; can you imagine the outrage, the lawsuits, the threats we would hear from the Hamas-affiliated Council on American Islamic Relations [CAIR]?).

Nor is it just about upgrading the status of the Palestinian territories in the United Nations, an organization that defines itself as “committed to maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations and promoting social progress, better living standards and human rights.” It is about continuing to support the notion that the Palestinian government is simply seeking the “freedom” of its people.

Because the fact is that Hamas’s Al Aqsa, and the spread of its hate-filled programming, puts the lie to the (naïve) notion that this is all simply about Israel and Palestine, that it’s all about human rights and justice and a pursuit of some kind of peace. And yet despite this, the West’s ongoing faith in a Palestinian state, in “unity,” continues to ignore the basic foundations of its politics and values – values which aim to contaminate, like a plague, the entire next generation – and not just of Palestinians, but of Muslims everywhere.

But it isn’t just Hamas’s fault: it’s ours, too. We in the West – including (if not especially) the United Nations – must begin to understand the “war on terror” as a war most of all on propaganda – and arm ourselves accordingly. If there is to be a “Sesame Street, Palestinian Edition,” then such a program must begin to employ the same methods of teaching justice, tolerance, and truth that make it so valued by parents in America and Europe. And other private enterprises, along with government projects, are going to have to do the same – not just in the interest of securing our own world today, but as a promise to the children of tomorrow.

Well, there are people who claim that we never landed on the moon, that Jim Morrison was alive decades after his death, that Elvis is alive, etc., etc., etc.

The problem with almost any claim like that is that it is impossible to prove false. As with this video. If someone wants to believe it was faked, how would we ever convince them otherwise?

Steroids – used for sports and body building cause vulnerability to severe coronavirus and post-vaccine complications.

Testosterone is contraindicated with both the disease and the vaccine – as the Frontline doctors warned early on. That may be why so many athletes and young virile males have succumbed to the disease and the vaccines.

From the FLCCC FAQ page:
1. There are clear gender disparities in terms of COVID-19 severity:
– Males with androgenic alopecia (hair loss, baldness) are at higher risk
– Users of anabolic androgenic steroids for recreational purposes are at higher risk
– Women with hyperandrogenic phenotypes (polycystic ovarian syndrome, hirsutism…) present with greater symptoms of COVID-19
– Children (pre-puberty) are notably protected against more severe COVID-19″

“1. There are clear gender disparities in terms of COVID-19 severity:
….
• users of anabolic androgenic steroids for recreational purposes are at higher risk”

Think about it… 
– a designer virus and designer vaccines 
– that don’t prevent disease, 
– that require frequent designer ‘boosters’, 
– that cause miscarriages, sterility, 
– that target female ovaries and males with high testosterone 
– both designed by conscienceless Gates and Fauci 
– who propound population control, birth control, abortion.

By that time the collective IQ of most Western countries will be about 75 so to achieve their dream will probably entail cardboard boxes and tin foil. They can pretend they’ve transcended into other worldly beings. 😎

We need a dash more humor this evening. My favorite part is at the end where the announcer says that the BBS will cover day two of the Presidential Olympics all day. The event will be walking across the stage.

Brilliant… Reminds me of “Game of Bones”, with Olive and Mabel from a few years back:

  • Feds have a strangle hold, monopoly on ammo available for purchase.

Following article IS short AND well worth reading.

Homesteading and the “Whole Earth” Movement

Thoughts after visiting the “Homesteaders of America” Conference

ROBERT W MALONE MD, MS

Joel Salatin of Polyface Farm (based in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley) is one of the heroes of the modern Homesteading/Farmsteading movement. In this photo he is reading from his most recent book “Homestead Tsunami” which can be ordered directly from Polyface Farm.

Yesterday (Saturday 15 October) Jill and I traveled about an hour north from our VA farm to join a friend, journalist Maike Hickson of LifeSite News, who had arranged for press passes to visit this years Homesteaders of America conference. Held in the modest Warren County Fairgrounds of Front Royal, VA, this conference has been running for seven years now, and this time all tickets were sold out months before the event. We were only able to get in because of Maike’s contacts, perhaps influenced by the fact that she is a local that lives just down the road from the fairgrounds in an old farmhouse with a classic bank barn.

I had no idea what we were walking into, imagining a modest local gathering at a fairgrounds where we once showed our Draft horses, back in the day when we were breeding Percheron. To my surprise, the sold out conference was attended by well over 5,000 people, drawn both locally and from across North America, the UK and Europe. Jill and I had the pleasure of meeting many participants from New England, Europe, and Illinois as well as locals such as our neighbor and Virginia State Delegate Nick Freitas. Suffice to say, parking was jammed and overflowing, local hotels were completely full, and many of those who came from a distance resorted to tents and trailers.
