The 'Unvaccinated' Question (Revisited)

Papers Please
© Archiwum Panstwowe w Krakowie; The Federal Republic of New Normal Germany; Twitter
On 1 September, 1941, Chief of Reich Security Reinhard Heydrich, one of the most fanatical, mass-murdering Nazis, issued a now notorious decree ordering Jews above the age of six to wear an identifying badge in public. The Jewish Badge, a yellow Star of David with the word "Jew" inscribed inside the star, was meant to stigmatize and humiliate the Jews and was also used to segregate them and monitor and control their movements.

Nothing like that is happening currently, especially not in New Normal Germany.

What is happening currently in New Normal Germany is the fascist fanatics in control of the government are rewriting the "Infection Protection Act," again — as they have been doing repeatedly for the last two years — in order to allow themselves to continue to violate the German constitution (the "Grundgesetz") and rule the nation by arbitrary decree under the guise of "protecting the public health."

This repeatedly revised "Infection Protection Act" — which has granted the government of New Normal Germany the authority to order lockdowns, curfews, the outlawing of protests against the New Normal, the mandatory wearing of medical-looking masks, the segregation and persecution of "the Unvaccinated," etc. — is of course in no way remotely comparable to the "Enabling Act of 1933," which granted the government of Nazi Germany the authority to issue whatever decrees it wanted under the guise of "remedying the distress of the people."

There is absolutely no similarity whatsoever between these two pieces of legislation.

I mean, look at this "Autumn/Winter Plan" for the new revision of the "Infection Protection Act," which will remain in effect from October until Easter, and which government officials and state propagandists (a/k/a the German media) are likening to "snow chain ordinances."

There is absolutely nothing creepily fascistic or remotely Nazi about this plan.

Palestinian militants vow imminent revenge on Israel for assassination of PIJ commander Taysir al-Jabari

Tel Aviv will be targeted by missiles within hours, leader declared

Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Ziyad Al-Nakhala said on Friday that his group would target Tel Aviv with missiles "in the coming hours." Earlier, an Israeli airstrike killed a senior commander of the militant organization.

"Metropolitan Tel Aviv will be one of the targets of the resistance missiles, and the coming hours will prove to the enemy that all the resistance forces are one and we will fight them as one man," Al-Nakhala said in remarks reported by Palestine's Quds News Network.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have meanwhile deployed Iron Dome missile defense batteries near the cities of Beersheba, Tel Aviv, and Jerusalem. Flights have been diverted from Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv and bomb shelters in the city have been made ready, the Times of Israel reported.

Comment: The Palestinian reaction was swift:
The PIJ said that it fired more than 100 rockets at towns in southern and central Israel, adding that the barrage was "just the beginning" of its response to al-Jabari's assassination. The IDF claimed that around 80 rockets were fired from Gaza, with around half falling short over the Palestinian enclave. Of the 46 that made it into Israeli territory, 33 were intercepted by the Iron Dome while the rest fell in open areas, the IDF stated.

The PIJ is believed to possess homemade al-Quds rockets, as well as anti-tank missiles and the Qassam rockets more commonly deployed by Hamas, a larger Palestinian militant group.


Amid the salvo from Gaza, Israeli aircraft launched a wave of further airstrikes on Gaza, targeting what the IDF said were "weapons production sites, warehouses and firing positions." Video footage captured the moment an alleged rocket firing position and two storage warehouses were obliterated with missiles.
Israel appears to be preparing for more than just air strikes. Hoping that the world will be distracted by the Ukraine and Taiwan crises?
Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz gave the green light on Friday to call up some 25,000 military reservists, should they be required. Israel is on a state of high alert, with Palestinian militants promising revenge for the killing of one of their top commanders in an Israeli airstrike.

Gantz' office announced the potential call-up less than an hour after Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) leader Zihad Al-Nakhala threatened to rain down missiles on the city of Tel Aviv over the "coming hours."

The IDF meanwhile posted video footage of its troops forming up and apparently preparing for combat.


Iron Dome missiles are expensive, at more that $50K a pop. Given the size of the PIJ barrage, and the promise it will not end soon, Israel knows it's very important to keep its arms sugardaddy onside:
Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz held a phone conversation with his American counterpart, Lloyd Austin on Friday night to update him on the objectives and progress of the ongoing military offensive in Gaza, dubbed 'Operation Breaking Dawn'. While the IDF claims it took out senior terrorists, Palestinian officials say dozens of civilians were killed or injured.

"Minister Gantz emphasized that the State of Israel is working to defend its citizens, and will operate decisively and with as great precision as possible against terror operatives and infrastructure in order to reach its objectives," Gantz's office said in statement about the call.
Turkey makes its views known:
Turkey has condemned Israeli military operations in Gaza, urging for de-escalation amid an exchange of IDF airstrikes and rocket fire from Palestinian militants. Washington, meanwhile, has voiced full support for the Jewish state.

The Turkish Foreign Ministry said it "strongly" condemned the Israeli airstrikes on Friday, calling for "restraint and common sense" while stressing the need "to immediately end these events before they turn into a new conflict."

"We find it unacceptable that civilians, including children, lost their lives in attacks," the ministry said, adding, "We are deeply concerned about the rising tension in the region after the attacks."
Turkey's relations with Israel have waxed and waned according to Erdogan's sense of realpolitik. Currently they are on a downward slide.

The evasive Mr. Wray

Christopher Wray
The FBI director knows a lot about issues that matter to the Biden regime and the media. But he isn't so savvy when it comes to issues that matter to Americans.

It was time for him to fly.

FBI Director Christopher Wray, testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee for the first time since July 2021, insisted he had to leave the hearing by 1:30 p.m. sharp. (It began at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday morning.)

Comment: The FBI is CLEARLY a partisan institution, through and through. Any pretense of impartiality is so far out the window at this point one has to wonder why they still try to maintain that image.

'The 800-pound gorilla': Trump boosts endorsement record with Arizona and Michigan wins

kari lake
© Justin Sullivan / Getty ImagesRepublican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake speaks at an election-night gathering at the Double Tree Hotel in Scottsdale, Ariz., on Tuesday.
Since leaving office last year, 188 candidates backed by the former president have won primaries, 14 have lost and two dropped out or were disqualified before Election Day.

Donald Trump's image as GOP kingmaker was tarnished by several high-profile election losses earlier this year, but Tuesday's primaries in states like Arizona put the Republican shine back on the former president.

In what's shaping up to be a clean sweep in Arizona, 11 of Trump's 12 endorsed candidates won in primaries for U.S. Senate, secretary of state, Congress, state House and state Senate. (Trump's pick for governor leads in a race that remains too close to call in the battleground state.)


Comment: Note: Kari Lake, the Trump-endorsed candidate, won the election.


All of those candidates have embraced Trump's false claims of a stolen 2020 election.

Comment: Whether Trump runs or not in 2024, his influence is already being felt.

China announced it was suspending or canceling eight cooperation mechanisms with Washington over Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, according to a statement by the Chinese Foreign Ministry published on Friday.

According to the document, Beijing decided to cancel bilateral working meetings between the representatives of military agencies, terminate a direct communication line between regional military commands as well as suspend cooperation within the framework of a maritime security mechanism.

Additionally, China's Foreign Ministry announced the suspension of cooperation with the US in the sphere of illegal migration and repatriation, in the sphere of legal proceedings and justice, the war on drugs, the counteraction to international crimes as well as on bilateral consultations on climate change.

Comment: GlobalTimes.cn details the eight measures in full:
1. Canceling China-US Theater Commanders Talk.

2. Canceling China-US Defense Policy Coordination Talks (DPCT).

3. Canceling China-US Military Maritime Consultative Agreement (MMCA) meetings.

4. Suspending China-US cooperation on the repatriation of illegal immigrants.

5. Suspending China-US cooperation on legal assistance in criminal matters.

6. Suspending China-US cooperation against transnational crimes.

7. Suspending China-US counternarcotics cooperation.

8. Suspending China-US talks on climate change.
As an aside, the number 8 is considered to be particularly auspicious in China.

US government may be complicit in emergence of Covid - Russia

USAID
Moscow is assessing the possibility that a Washington DC agency played a part in the creation of Covid-19
Russia's Defense Ministry says it's investigating the possible role of the US Agency for International Development (USAID) in the creation of the Covid-19 virus.

In a press briefing on Thursday, the head of Russia's Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Forces, Lieutenant-General Igor Kirillov, claimed that US-backed bio-laboratories in Ukraine had been conducting questionable research and clinical tests on Ukrainian citizens, and that "over 16,000 biological samples, including blood and serum samples, were exported from the territory of Ukraine to US and European countries."

He went on to explain that a statement from Jason Crow, a member of the US House of Representatives Intelligence Committee, who warned Americans that their DNA samples could be used to create targeted biological weapons, caused Russia's Defense Ministry to "take a fresh look" at the origins of the Covid pandemic.


Comment: At least some in Russia's government will have known about the US' biowarfare programs and will have had suspicions even prior to this statement by the US rep. It's likely that it's just being used as a opener that will be harder to refute. After all, back in 2017, Putin warned that very specific biological samples and genetic data of Russian's were being collected by the US Air Force.


Comment: Even scientists that believed the official narratives struggled to find data to support animal to human transmission, alongside this many of them found evidence showing that the virus had clearly been tinkered with, also known as 'gain of function'.

World desperately needs strong leaders - Orban

Orban
© UnknownHungarian PM Viktor Orban speaks to Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Dallas, August 4, 2022
Europe needs "a strong America with a strong leader" if there is to be any hope of ending the conflict in Ukraine, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban warned on Thursday at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Texas. The current strategy embraced by "globalist leaders" serves to prolong the conflict, which can only end through talks between the US and Russia, he added.

Orban told the crowd that it was strange that a leader of a small European country would be invited to lecture a global superpower. After giving an account of Hungary's political positions and tactics used to promote them, he eventually touched on the conflict in Ukraine.

Comment: The voters and the economies of Russia and China can attest to the benefits that a strong leader, who isn't compromised by the nefarious powers, can confer to a nation.

At the summit Orban also said:

Needles of hope in the Ukraine war haystack

Walking the Road
© AFPWill Ukraine choose the road to peace?
There recently have emerged small trends that demonstrate, first, that the hot heads are not completely in charge in the East or even in the West, and second, that there may be hope that both sides in the catastrophic Russo-Ukrainian war over NATO expansion can be ended some day in the not too distant future.

First, Lithuania's extremist attempt to draw a Russian overreaction and bring NATO into the war by setting up a blockade against Russian transport between the Russian 'mainland' and its exclave of Kaliningrad was avoided. Reasonable minds in the European Union cajoled Vilnius into abandoning the ban on rail transport, which far exceeds road transport, which remains closed.

Second, by way of Turkey's mediation, Russia and Ukraine agreed to cooperate in getting Ukrainian grain out to the rest of the world through the Black Sea Fleet, which had been heavily mined by Kiev and largely sealed by the Russian navy. Ukraine will remove its mines, Russia will allow ships through, and ships arriving and returning to Ukraine's port of Odessa will be searched for weapons.

Why we lost trust in the expert class

Biden
© AP/Susan Walsh/KJNUS President Joe Biden
For years, European policymakers had assured the world that the relatively rapid "transition" to "green" energy was the world's preordained future -- regardless of the costs. Accordingly, many European Union governments followed the advice of green experts. They eagerly shut down coal, natural gas, and nuclear power plants to transition immediately to "renewable energy."

Most citizens were afraid to object that in cloudy cold Germany, solar panels were not viable methods of electrical generation -- especially in comparison to the country's vast coal deposits and its large, model nuclear power industry.

As a result, German government officials warn that this winter, in 19th-century fashion, families will have to burn wood -- the dirtiest of modern fuels -- to endure the cold. And there is further talk of "warm rooms," where like pre-civilizational tribal people, the elderly will bunch together within a designated heated room to keep alive.

Sri Lanka may be the first modern nation to adopt deliberate policies that have led to mass hunger and bankruptcy. The government, for a variety of reasons, listened to foreign advocates of back-to-nature organic farming, specifically outright abandonment of highly effective synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. The result was endemic crop failure. Cash crops for export failed. Widespread hunger followed. Without foreign exchange, it became impossible to import key staples like food and fuel.

Sri Lanka once had a per capita income twice that of nearby India. Now it cannot feed nor fuel itself.

Unfortunately, its incompetent government trusted radical environmental advisors, many of them foreign experts. Sri Lanka believed it could become the woke darling of the "Environmental, Social, Governance" movement, and in that way draw in unlimited Western woke investment. Instead, it has embraced a policy of national suicide.

Recently, a group of 55 distinguished pro-administration economists assured us that President Joe Biden's massive borrowing and new entitlements agenda were not inflationary. In September 2021, these economists with 14 Nobel prize winners among them declared that Biden's inflationary policies would actually "ease" inflation.

Last month, inflation spiked to an annualized rate of 9.1%.
