If Sweden, which has not locked down its economy and society, emerges with a death toll from COVID-19 that is somewhere in the middle of the pack of European countries, there is going to be a lot of recrimination, particularly against those who have tried to silence any discussion about the true extent of the threat that COVID-19 actually poses.

In a word: Sweden.

What happens if they pull this off? What happens if it turns out that we could have coped with COVID-19 without collapsing entire sectors of the economy putting millions on the dole, and imposing some of the most draconian restrictions on civil liberties in living memory?

Sweden has not closed the bars. Shopping malls are open. Schools and companies are open too. There are some restrictions such as on gatherings of over 500 people. But, in comparison with most European countries, life in Sweden is relatively normal.

Right now, Sweden's death rate from coronavirus is 33 per million of the population. In France it is 83. In Italy it is 230. In Britain it is 43. In the Netherlands it is 78.

Best of the Web: Coronavirus 'Plandemic' - This IS the global reset

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way . . ." - Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
Global Reset
© Corbett Report
Every now and then, the world resets.

Sometimes it's a cataclysm or natural disaster that pushes the reset button. Sometimes it's a political revolution. Sometimes it's a war. Sometimes it's a technological innovation.

Dickens' immortal "best of times / worst of times" formulation comes from his novel about one such reset: the French Revolution. Dickens' words capture the dual natures of these fracture points in history. Like the old (and spurious) trope about the Chinese word for "crisis," a reset presents both a danger and an opportunity.

It is now apparent to all that we have arrived at another world reset. This time we are being asked to believe that it is a viral pandemic that has pushed the reset button. Others would contest that it is in fact the panic over the (presumed) pandemic that is responsible for this crisis. Yet others insist that the p(l)andemic is nothing more than a distraction from the global financial reset which was going to happen regardless.

Whatever the case, the fact remains that the reset button has been pushed. No one knows for certain what lies on the other side of this chasm, but — as we've been endlessly told in recent weeks — life will never be the same.

So, following Dickens, let's explore the dual nature of this global reset and outline the dangers and the opportunities that this crisis presents.

Galloway: 3 nails in Corbyn's leadership coffin are anti-Semitism smears, appeasement & attitude to Brexit

Full disclosure: I have known the departing Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader whose five year term ended at the weekend, for 40 years, nearly 30 of those as a close colleague in parliament.

In almost all of my speeches in parliament available on YouTube, Corbyn is sitting by my side.

And I was, without a close competitor, his most supportive ally in the national media. My defences of him obtaining millions of viewers and earning my former employer TalkRadio a substantial fine from the state regulator Ofcom for the "lack of balance" in my spirited rejection of his critics. But that was then and this is now.

In the decades in which he was at my side I never rated Corbyn highly, as a thinker - I literally never saw him read a book, a writer - I am not aware of anything he has ever written, an orator or even as a companion - there was too much of the student squat about him for my tastes. It was unthinkable that he would ever be a leader.

Comment: Corbyn may not have been perfect for the job, but he represented qualities that are sorely lacking in that swamp that is British politics and that are clearly yearned for by its citizens; that's why the establishment saw him as such a threat and rallied the full power of the propaganda media against him:

Tunisia leads the way: New report exposes Israel's false democracy

Tunisia is the Middle East's greatest success story, according to the findings of the V-Dem Annual Democracy Report 2019.

One of the world's most regarded annual reports on democracy and good governance, the V-Dem Report is produced by the V-Dem (Varieties of Democracy) Institute at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.

While Tunisians can be proud of the prospect of democracy in their country, Israelis have little to be proud of. A country that has long prided itself, however misleadingly, of being 'the only democracy in the Middle East', has lost the title to Tunisia, a small North-African Arab nation of just over 11 million people.

Understandably, Tunisians might find their overall ranking ahead of well-established democracies less meaningful, considering that the politically unstable country is still undergoing a painful democratic transition. However, considering that the country has registered a sizable improvement in every democratic aspect examined by the V-Dem Report, Tunisia truly deserves the title of "the star pupil of democratization of the past ten years."

Israel, however, has been, once more, exposed for its charade democracy. Since it was established atop the ruins of the Palestinian homeland, Israel has relentlessly touted its democratic virtues while excluding millions of Palestinian Arabs from any form of democratic participation.

Comment: Far from not being a real democracy, Israel should certainly be tried for war crimes:

Best of the Web: WHO is inducing panic, is utterly corrupt, and is being paid off by Gates Foundation & Big Pharma to push vaccines

F. William Engdahl

Tedros Adhanom
The most influential organization in the world with nominal responsibility for global health and epidemic issues is the United Nations' World Health Organization, WHO, based in Geneva. What few know is the actual mechanisms of its political control, the shocking conflicts of interest, corruption and lack of transparency that permeate the agency that is supposed to be the impartial guide for getting through the current COVID-19 pandemic. The following is only part of what has come to public light.

Pandemic declaration?

On January 30 Tedros Adhanom, Director-General of the UN World Health Organization declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern or PHIEC. This came two days after Tedros met with China President Xi Jinping in Beijing to discuss the dramatic rise in severe cases of a novel coronavirus in Wuhan and surrounding areas that had reached dramatic proportions. Announcing his emergency PHIEC declaration, Tedros praised the Chinese quarantine measures, measures highly controversial in public health and never before in modern times attempted with entire cities, let alone countries. At the same time Tedros, curiously, criticized other countries who were moving to block flights to China to contain the strange new disease, leading to charges he was unduly defending China.

Comment: The confluence of monied interests, societal engineering goals, egregious corruption and sheer stupidity is off the proverbial charts as we continue to follow where the Covid-19 story leads us. We can do no better than to get the word out to those with 'ears to hear' of this immense crime being foisted on half the world.

Still stalling: Prosecutors ask for delay in Michael Flynn case as defense fights for dismissal

General Michael Flynn
Justice Department prosecutors in the case against former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn are asking the court for an additional three weeks continuance on the case, citing the review of "voluminous" documents submitted by Flynn's former legal team that represented him for a span 30 months.

The status report was filed by prosecutors Friday in anticipation of a scheduled hearing on April 3. Justice Department prosecutors stated in the status report that the documents provided by Flynn's former legal counsel with Covington and Burling "are voluminous, span numerous topics that arose during Covington's 30-month representation of Mr. Flynn, and include many pages of sometimes difficult-to-decipher handwritten notes."

"The government needs additional time to digest this information and any additional information that Covington may provide," the status report stated. "In order to allow the government adequate time to review the materials that have been produced and to request, receive, and review any follow-up information or documents, the government respectfully asks this Court to allow the government three additional weeks to provide a further status update and, if feasible, a proposed briefing schedule."

In February, Attorney General William Barr ordered a re-examination of several high-profile cases, including Flynns. The re-examination of Flynn's case will be headed by U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Jensen of St. Louis. According to sources familiar with the matter, Jensen will be working with Brandon Van Grack, who is the former prosecutor that pursued the case against Flynn during Robert Mueller's Special Counsel investigation.

Saudi Arabia wants to put pressure on Russia...but could it hurt itself instead?

While the world faces an unprecedented crisis over the coronavirus pandemic, Riyadh is trying to push other countries to play by its rules in the oil market, but those actions could have backfired.

Since the OPEC+ deal collapsed, Saudi Arabia has brought out the big guns to grab the market share, but the move eventually drove crude prices to new lows. After Moscow and Riyadh failed to reach a new production-cut deal in early March, the kingdom decided to boost production and granted discounts to its oil buyers.

"I think they're trying to put pressure, especially on Russia, so they could come to agree with what they were trying to push over during the last OPEC meeting," Roberto d'Ambrosio, the CEO of Axiory Global, said in an interview to RT.

CDC tells hospitals to list COVID-19 as THE cause of death - Even if it's only ASSUMED to have contributed

The problem with making informed decisions about coronavirus is that we don't have a whole lot of data on it at the moment.

The data that we do have, meanwhile, could end up being terminally skewed, particularly the data that's been coming out of China.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's guidance on determining COVID-19 as a cause of death isn't going to help those numbers.

Issued March 24, the guidance tells hospitals to list COVID-19 as a cause of death regardless of whether or not there's actual testing to confirm that's the case.

Comment: Here it is in black and white. The CDC is artificially inflating the mortality rate of COVID-19 by telling hospitals to not look at ambiguity or other factors involved in death. The result will of course is to see the mortality rate increase. This is undoubtedly the gas that fuels hysteria in the public to implement further controls.

There is a profound difference between a definitive cause of death and acknowledging equally contributing and/or existing factors. How these determinations are reported determines this layer of patient history forever. Considering the volume of cases involved, there will unlikely be a second review to separate out the causes of death in order to gain a perspective that is factually useful going forward. No need, indeed, considering this experiment is a PSYOP.
Psychological operations (PSYOP) are operations to convey selected information and indicators to audiences to influence their emotions, motives, and objective reasoning, and ultimately the behavior of governments, organizations, groups, and individuals.

A step‐op is one in which the bad guys keep going, one intrusion after another. It isn't just West Nile, it's West Nile, then SARS, then Bird Flu, then Swine Flu. It"s all one package, with the idea, in this case, that they'll slowly wear down the resistance and people will buy in, will buy the story, the lie. They want people to OBEY. That's the whole essence of this op. OBEY. It isn't only about fake epidemics and getting vaccines. It's about operant training in OBEYING. Get it? In general. Obey us. We command, you go along. ~ Ellis Medavoy in interview with Jon Rappoport, from The Matrix Revealed

War profiteering in the time of Corona

war industry
On 11 March, executives from the war corporation CACI, which sells goods and services to CIA, NSA, and the U.S. Armed Forces, rang the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange. That ceremony embodies the war industry's business as usual approach to the coronavirus. Industry executives are doing their best to keep the gears of war churning, however, as portions of the overall military-industrial-congressional triangle stumble, the working class must seize the moment to obtain peace in our day.

The war industry received 367 distinct deals (contracts or contract modifications) during March 2020, a figure I tallied based upon the Pentagon's public records. This is above average. A typical month of contracting sees between 240 and 350 contracts issued. Salient military contracts issued to the war industry during March included a state-of-the-art logistics system for DARPA, the burial of nuclear reactor components in Washington state, nearly $1 billion on a single day for Lockheed Martin's THADD, plenty of missiles, science & technology operations and support for the Defense Intelligence Agency, and $4.9 billion on a single day for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter boondoggle.
