One of the many things that continues to baffle me about the public response to all things Covid, is that the number of people demanding answers to the following questions is pitifully and inexplicably low:
  1. Who was behind the creation of SARS-CoV-2?
  2. Why were they making it?
  3. How and why did it get unleashed on the world?
These questions should unite both those who believe with their whole heart that Lockdowns were necessary and saved lives, and those like me who believe they were utterly futile on their own terms, and have caused untold destruction. They should unite both those who believe that masks were necessary and saved lives, and those like me who believe them to have been utterly futile on their own terms, and a destructive dehumanising force designed to perpetuate fear. They should unite both those who think that the so-called vaccines were safe and effective, and those who believe these blood-clotting, immune-suppressing, gene-editing injections to have been useless on their own terms, and the cause of mass casualties, which will one day be found to have killed millions upon millions of people over the course of several years.

All of us should be demanding who was behind this, why they were doing it, and how it came to be unleashed on humanity. For the fact is that a cytotoxic Spike Protein, with HIV Gp120 inserts which infect and destroy immune cells, was created in a laboratory and added to a coronavirus in gain-of-function research. Why are people not interested in who did this to them and why? Why are they not interested in who was behind something that was used to basically mess up their lives, and the entire planet, for the last two years, and long into the future.

Comment: Those who willingly marched-in-step to an untested protocol verify Phase I of programming is complete. A short future is cast. For those who refrained, they will pursue as the author convincingly points out.

China must stick 'unswervingly' to its zero-Covid strategy, says leader Xi Jinping

China is the last major economy still pursuing a policy of stamping out all outbreaks, wielding snap lockdowns, mass testing and mandatory quarantines.

President Xi Jinping said China must stick "unswervingly" to its zero-Covid strategy, as more than half of Shanghai's 25 million lockdown-weary residents gird Friday for a weekend virus testing drive.

But the strategy has come under heightened scrutiny after the fast-spreading Omicron variant triggered sweeping restrictions in major cities such as Shanghai and Beijing, hammering the world's second-biggest economy.

Chinese leaders have attempted to thread the needle between crushing the virus and limiting the damage of lockdowns, with Xi on Thursday calling for "efficiently coordinating Covid-19 prevention and control with economic and social development".

But he said China's "dynamic zero-Covid approach must be unswervingly upheld", according to state news agency Xinhua.

Comment: Here's a glimpse at China's 'language' (control mechanism) regarding 'ZERO':
Topping page one in the CCP's People's Daily is the official Xinhua News Agency readout on the meeting of the Politburo Standing Committee to study the covid prevention and control situation, which was published online late yesterday.

The word "persistence" appears three times at the very top of the readout:
The meeting pointed out that since the onset of the covid epidemic, we have persisted in people first and life first, we have persisted in defense against import [of the virus] and against internal recurrence, we have persisted in dynamic zero, and therefore significant strategic results in prevention and control have been achieved through constant adjustment of prevention and control measures.
Further down in the readout is language about "unwaveringly persisting in the general policy of 'dynamic zero,'" and immediately after comes the phrase "persistence is victory" (坚持就是胜利), which CMP analyzed yesterday as a recent focus in official CCP discourse of late.

The language about "unwavering persistence" (毫不动摇坚持), linked to the notion of persistence as victory, provides the foundation for a page two commentary in the People's Daily attributed to "a commentator from this paper," or benbao pinglunyuan (本报评论员), marking it as a staff-written piece representing views in the senior leadership.

The commentary starts off with the same triple use of "persistence" that appears in the Politburo meeting readout, but this time language is included about Xi Jinping as the "core" leader of the Party. The phrase "persisting in dynamic zero" then appears three times in the commentary, followed by the hyperbolic triple persistence line CMP covered in yesterday's analysis:
"Persistence is victory! Only by persisting can there be victory! Persistence will definitely bring victory!"
Beyond the message of persistence in the zero-covid policy, we should note language in the readout, commentary and last night's official Xinwen Lianbo (新闻联播) newscast about
"resolutely overcoming lack of awareness, lack of preparation, insufficient work and other problems, and resolutely overcoming contempt, indifference, self-righteousness and other [trends] in thinking."
This language should be read as a direct criticism of unspecified local CCP leaders who have questioned the policies at the center, or who have been insufficiently successful in applying them. And it is difficult not to hear in this phrase about "self-righteousness" (自以为是) a condemnation of leaders in Shanghai in particular.

The resolve to "persist" in the dynamic zero approach comes also with the message that dissent over the policy will not be tolerated. The readout notes that the Party must "resolutely struggle against all distortions, doubts and denials of our epidemic prevention policy."

Russia has protested the "vicious" Israeli strike, as Syria confirms the suspension of airport operations

The Syrian authorities said on Friday that Damascus International Airport had temporarily suspended operations due to "technical disruptions," just hours after a massive airstrike blamed on Israel. Satellite images showed photos of severely damaged runways and claimed the facility has been "completely disabled."

All flights have been suspended for at least 48 hours and some traffic is being rerouted through Aleppo, AFP reported, citing an airport employee who wished to remain anonymous.

Russia confirmed that the airport suffered "serious damage," and that Syrian officials told Moscow repairing the damaged runways may take "significant time."

Kiev's forces have lost around 10,000 personnel since the launch of Russia's military operation, presidential aide admits

The Ukrainian Armed Forces can admit to having lost around 10,000 personnel since the beginning of the Russian military offensive in late February, presidential aide Alexey Arestovich indicated on Friday, while claiming Moscow's losses are significantly higher.

Russian sources believe that Kiev is significantly underestimating its casualties.

In an interview with activist and YouTuber Mark Feygin, Arestovich revealed that "at the beginning of the conflict, 100 people died per day on average."

Comment: Indeed, Russian losses have been much higher than necessary, in their efforts to spare civilians and infrastructure. But Ukraine has stubbornly refused to face the reality of the military situation. Now Moscow has slid the gloves off a bit more.

Is US/NATO (with WEF help) pushing for a Global South famine?

escalator from hell
Is the proxy war in Ukraine turning out to be only a lead-up to something larger, involving world famine and a foreign-exchange crisis for food- and oil-deficit countries?

Many more people are likely to die of famine and economic disruption than on the Ukrainian battlefield. It thus is appropriate to ask whether what appeared to be the Ukraine proxy war is part of a larger strategy to lock in U.S. control over international trade and payments. We are seeing a financially weaponized power grab by the U.S. Dollar Area over the Global South as well as over Western Europe. Without dollar credit from the United States and its IMF subsidiary, how can countries stay afloat? How hard will the U.S. act to block them from de-dollarizing, opting out of the U.S. economic orbit?

U.S. Cold War strategy is not alone in thinking how to benefit from provoking a famine, oil and balance-of-payments crisis. Klaus Schwab's World Economic Forum worries that the world is overpopulated - at least with the "wrong kind" of people. As Microsoft philanthropist (the customary euphemism for rentier monopolist) Bill Gates has explained: "Population growth in Africa is a challenge." His lobbying foundation's 2018 "Goalkeepers" report warned: "According to U.N. data, Africa is expected to account for more than half of the world's population growth between 2015 and 2050. Its population is projected to double by 2050," with "more than 40 percent of world's extremely poor people ... in just two countries: Democratic Republic of the Congo and Nigeria."

How Washington is turning the Pacific into a new theatre of NATO's conflict

Defence Austin Lloyd
In April, at a press conference in Poland, the US Secretary of Defence Austin Lloyd openly declared that the core US objective in the Russia-Ukraine conflict was/is to weaken Russia militarily in ways to make its recovery difficult if not impossible for a long time. Austin said, "we want to see Russia weakened to the degree that it can't do the kinds of things that it has done in invading Ukraine," adding that Russia "should not have the capability to very quickly reproduce" the forces and equipment that had been lost in Ukraine. The statement was made in the wake of Ukraine, but the theatre of conflict, or the geographical extent of the anti-Russian axis, is not limited to Europe. The US is actively militarizing the Pacific region - especially, Japan - to spread and strengthen its position. Last month, Japan announced its decision to double its military spending, increasing it from 1 per cent of its GDP to 2 per cent. This increase will allow Japan - a country constitutionally committed to an ideology of "pacifism" and no active military force - to spend US$86 billion on its defence.

Japan's drive to arm itself has an interesting parallel in Europe, where Germany, too, has decided to massively increase its total defence spending to 100 billion euros. With Washington actively supporting these critical changes to establish powerful militaries around its core rival states - Russia and China in Europe and Asia - new forms of conflict are likely to emerge, with prospects of major counter alliances on the horizon too.

Maria Zakharova shows the hypocrisy of liberal democracy

Maria Zakharova, the spokeswoman for the Russian foreign ministry.
Do you remember the recent incident (link) when Sergey Razov, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to the Italian Republic, filed a lawsuit at the prosecutor's office in Rome against the Italian newspaper La Stampa and its journalist Domenico Quirico for the publication of an article called "If Killing a Tyrant is the Only Option," which discussed in all seriousness the possibility, expediency and hypothetic perpetrators of the Russian President's assassination?

The Italian Criminal Code contains Article 414, Clause1 and Clause 3 on incitement to commit a crime.

The Russian Ambassador cited these clauses in the court case. But the wonders of democracy never cease to amaze.

That same daily published an article the other day reporting that the lawsuit by the Russian Ambassador had been dismissed at a preliminary hearing in Turin. Despite the established procedure, we have not received any official response so far. According to the newspaper, the court cited the absence of a constitutional principle confirming that a criminal offence had been committed, while descriptions of an assassination constitute no threat to state security (whose security - Russia's or Italy's?) and do not constitute incitement to commit a crime since "there are no essential elements of an offence."

Comment: Maria Zakharova has previous said that George Orwell's dystopian classic Nineteen Eighty-Four was written to describe the dangers of western liberalism - not totalitarianism.

Poland was too quick to sanction Russia, citizens will suffer - Polish official

The Polish government was too quick to ban Russian coal, Pawel Poncyljusz, a member of the Civic Coalition of Warsaw's Parliament, told state-run Polskie Radio on Friday. In his opinion, the sudden reduction in supplies will hurt the average person.

"It is a problem. Such radical decisions were made too quickly, it was necessary to approach it a bit more calmly," he said, adding that cutting off deliveries completely was too drastic for a country that has been increasing imports of Russian coal for years.

"We are moving from one extreme to another. In recent years, government decisions have led to the fact that we have exceeded the import of coal from Russia by 10 million tons. Now we have a sudden cut in imports, which is to some extent harmful for Russia, but to a much greater extent more so for ordinary Poles who have coal-fired stoves," Poncyljusz explained.

Comment: That would be at least two of Poland's fairly harsh winters with a reduced supply of firewood and coal, and the possibility that a significant number would die of cold exposure; but, it's not all bad, the government is allowing them to fight for whatever scraps they can find in their nearest forest...

US confrontation or Chinese cooperation? As the Asia-Pacific contemplates its future security, the choice is obvious

Complex changes are taking place in the sphere of international security. Civil unrest in Africa and regional hotspot issues in the Middle East are emerging one after another, while the Russia-Ukraine war puts Europe in the eye of the storm, even if a mere few months ago, many thought war was far away from Europe.

In comparison, the Asia-Pacific - despite some uncertainties - has maintained overall peace and stability, with development and cooperation remaining the primary focus.

However, in the context of accelerating tensions among major powers and lack of strategic mutual trust, many are worried how long this peace and stability, and the upbeat momentum conducive to development, can last.

US is "beyond bankrupt": Are we seeing a "controlled demolition" enabling a "new dystopian future"?

American collapse
New Zealand tech CEO, Kim Dotcom did the math on the United States' sovereign debt and he tweeted a thread about it, saying it may the most important thread that he may ever make.

Kim explains that US spending and debt have spiraled out of control and the Government can only raise the money it needs by printing more of it, which means that hyperinflation is guaranteed.

He says this has been going on for decades and there's no way to fix it and that the US got away with this for so long, because US dollar is the world's reserve currency.

When the US Government prints trillions, it is thereby robbing Americans and the entire world in what he calls the biggest theft in history.

He says the total US debt is at $90 trillion, which together with $169 trillion in US unfunded liabilities totals $259 trillion, which is $778,000 per US citizen or $2,067,000 per US Taxpayer.

Now, the value of all US assets combined: every piece of land, real estate, all savings, all companies, everything that all citizens, businesses, entities and the state own is worth $193 trillion.
