The
World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos has come and gone, and nothing has
really changed. The wonderful people of the world struck again – blowing
hot air to the four corners of the world. When in reality the poor get
poorer, the rich get richer, wars and conflicts are on the rise – and
humanity, at least in the western world, is ever more exposed to
propaganda lies and mind manipulations, of which then WEF is just one
tiny, miserable example.
For instance, was anybody
still listening to the bombastic nonsense coming out of Trump’s and
Macron’s throat? – It is a soft version of “Fire and Fury” — to confirm
to the World of the Noble who is in charge, and to assure the elite that
nothing, but nothing will change in the balance of power. That’s the
neoliberal Davos Club of always. And they, this elite of beautiful
people, would certainly not want a ‘hard core’ nuclear war to destroy
their properties and luxury yachts, castles and comfort zone.
So,
rest assured, sable-rattling about nuclear Armageddon is just a smoke
screen, a deviation maneuver to hide a much worse atrocity. An atrocity,
or rather a set of atrocities by which the WEF crowd will most likely
never be touched. Trump, for the moment, is the best salesman and
mouthpiece the Deep State could muster for their ploy. He is pompous,
pretentiously egocentric, and an absurd bully. His America First and
Make America Great again, repeated over and over – sounds so silly, but
said often enough, it takes hold and becomes the truth in people’s
minds.
In Davos Trump’s speech was so simple, it was even catchy: America
will always be first; and each one of you, addressing the statesmen in
the crowd, he said, should do the same for your country. Then we can
work together. This sounds like a complete anti-globalist declaration.
The world is now to believe that globalization – which most of the
universe has woken up to understand is a disaster – is over, a thing of
the past. Another smoke-screen to let the corporate machine push harder
to globalize the last corner of Mother Earth – suck the last juice out
of the poor, the dispensable “shithole” people.From 2008 to 2016 Obama was the ideal liar with credibility – so much so that he got the Peace Nobel Prize even before he really started his Presidency. Hectoliters of tears of hope were shed during his inauguration on the Washington Mall. His smooth and charming smile convinced everybody, his eloquent and articulate speeches swayed the world into believing that change was coming, that after the horrible Bush years, the United States wanted only the good for the people of the world. With this false image, Obama managed to leave the Presidency with seven active wars (he inherited two) to his credit – and a record of drone killings – all approved by the Commander-in-chief, Obama, himself – unimaginable. Tens of thousands of innocent people were assassinated or maimed – all extrajudicial killings. That was the Peace Man at the time.
The Donald is, indeed, of a different breed, color and style. Precisely the style needed by his masters for the next at 4 years. Maybe 8; we don’t know yet. His controversial preposterous character, crying wolf along with nuclear saber-rattling over and over again, is to diverge the attention of the public at large – within the US, as well as around the globe, so that a much more sinister war can be developed, advanced and rapidly expanded.
The dark elite that pulls the strings, the would-be and wannabe hegemon, has, I honestly believe, no intention in destroying themselves, ‘their’ planet, along with their properties, their fiscal paradises, castles, yachts and casinos, yes casinos, like the western all dominating central banks. They are the casinos of the rich. They live too well to wanting to see their feudal lives destroyed by a nuclear apocalypse.
They, the new feudals, may think it is be alright to use precision nuclear weapons “light” – destined to take out specific targets, but they also know – those who direct the Red Nuclear Button (Trump’s ‘Bigger Button’) – that they don’t know what the reaction from the targeted enemies or their allies might be. Perhaps a total annihilation. Not unlikely. – The deep dark elitists may survive. But what is life in bunkers and contaminated air, water and soil, perhaps for decades or centuries? – “Fire and Fury” life and in real time are no good. Just screaming and yelling to scare people into submission. That’s always good.
These somber masters of the universe, they are smarter than nuclear war. They have another, a quieter war in mind, a gradual but steady destruction of the useless, expendable humanity, leaving infrastructure and their safe havens in place, increasing their living space of opulence.
It is a war that is already in full swing; not a cold war – a hot war, a medium-to long-term execution of mankind. This strategy will work like an octopus with many tentacles operating simultaneously around the globe. If one tentacle fails, the others will do its job, until the damaged one has recovered. It’s a combat, where hardly anybody targeted can escape.
Think of biological warfare, as one of the tentacles. There exist already more than 100 secret Pentagon – CIA controlled biological weapons labs around the world. Often, their store front is a “scientific research” lab, looking for cures of human and animal diseases or biological means to eradicate agricultural pests. They are coverups. In reality, these labs develop new biological strains, viruses and bacteria, even new generations of vaccines – to be tested on local populations, of course, without their knowledge or consent. Among such research centers is the Richard E. Lugar Centre in Tbilisi, Georgia, known to be a biological weapons lab. See this.
In addition to
developing new bio weapons, the lab is investigating the links between
DNA groups and bio weapons, targeting Russia and possibly other
geographic and ethnic regions, i.e. the Middle East. Kamens, the author
of the above article, quotes Russian Senator Klintsevich as saying,
“It is no secret that different ethnic groups react to biological weapons in different ways and that is why the West is meticulously collecting material all across Russia.”
No
doubt this or comparable labs around the globe will do similar research
on the East Asian populations, with emphasis on China. Latin America,
Washington’s backyard will not be spared.
The Ebola
outbreak in West Africa – 2014 to 2016 – covering Sierra Leone, Liberia
and Guinea, was very likely a “man-made” bio-trial. Ebola today can be
contained. It registered officially close to 30,000 cases and killed
according to official statistics more than 11,000 people. Unofficial
figures put the death toll way above 20,000. It also reduced the
economic output of these countries. Sierra Leone and Liberia suffered
the most from the outbreak. It’s a perfect test for what to do to
subjugate this kind of developing country. This is applicable, basically
for most of resources rich Africa.
Another tentacle of the monster octopus is genetically modified organisms (GMO).
Monsanto is known since the late sixties early seventies to be working
with Henry Kissinger, the Mastermind of the Bilderberg Society, whose
major objective it is to drastically reduce world population. Almost any
bio-disease strain can be implanted into GMO seeds. Nobody will notice
and know. In the 1990s Monsanto tested a GMO wheat in India that
rendered women infertile. The test was carried out on poor women, the untouchables. The
exercise blew open, created a short-lived scandal, but was soon muffled
by the media. Imagine, GMOs targeting specific populations with genetic
diseases? – The poor are the most vulnerable and defenseless – not only
with infertility, but with any kind of deadly diseases or brain or
neurological long-term insufficiencies. Some of these health failures
develop only over time, so that nobody can trace them back to GMOs.
Climate warfare is another nefarious tentacle of the would be-wannabe emperor, or his handlers. Climate manipulation technology is already at least 50 years old. Environmental
modification techniques – ENMOD – is the Pentagon’s ultimate weapon of
mass destruction. It is a sophisticated electromagnetic weapon operated
from the outer atmosphere.
The technology was developed in the 1990s by the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), based in Alaska, enabling selectively changing weather patterns, causing excessive precipitations, floods, droughts, hurricanes and other excessive weather phenomena, thereby destroying infrastructure, agricultural production, entire economies of a country or a region, without the deployment of bombs, troops and tanks. In 1977 the UN General Assembly banned ‘military or other hostile use of environmental modification techniques having widespread, long-lasting or severe effects.’ In 2014 the HAARP center was officially closed. However, this secretive technology is alive and well – and ready to be applied anywhere Washington wants to coerce a ‘regime change’, including destroying or weakening a population to facilitate access to the country’s natural resources.
An early version of climate modification was used in the late sixties and early seventies in Vietnam. Cloud-seeding, Operation Popeye, allowed prolonging the monsoon season, thereby blocking or rendering the Vietcong’s supply routes on the Ho Chi Minh Trail more difficult. This was accompanied by the Napalm defoliant which was supposed to expose, maim and kill Vietcong insurgents and allied populations.
While no climate change theorists talk about this secretive technology, it is possible, though not proven, that climate modifications are already ongoing in Africa, for example in strategically situated Somalia and Ethiopia, causing extended droughts and famine, and in Afghanistan with extremely cold and wet winters, thereby weakening and possibly exterminating entire swaths of populations. Possibly, though also not proven, as an undesired result, by an ever equalizing Mother Nature, the West is also experiencing excessive weather patterns – the record cold in the eastern US, the drought-provoked forest fires followed by heavy rain and mudslides in California, as well as stronger and more frequent hurricanes in the Caribbean Gulf area.
Talking about man-made climate modification – Rainforests
once covered 14% of the earth’s land surface; now they cover a mere 6%.
According to The Guardian, every year an area of about 180,000 km2 of
rainforest is lost, the equivalent of the size of England and Wales. At
this rate, in 40 years 10 million km2 – the size of Europe, will have
been razed. At current rates, linearly expanded, all of the rainforest
may have gone in 100 years. The good news is that linearism does not
apply to long-term projections; this horrendous trend of destruction
can, thus, still be stopped by awakened people.
The Amazon
rainforest encompassed in 1970 still 4.1 million km2 and in 2015 about
3.3 million km2, a reduction of 800,000 km2 in 45 years. The main reason
is cattle farming, beef and leather trade, but also bio fuel and
logging – to a large extent illegal logging. The impact of rainforest
razing in the Amazon is already noticeable in the form of increased
drought in Argentina’s Patagonia, damaging agriculture and Argentina’s
beef industry. Deforestation as climate weapon? – Capitalism, when left
free destroys everything, not just the environment, but mankind’s entire
social fabric.
Privatization of water is
another weapon of the monster. It is quietly and often clandestinely
advancing, driven and coerced by the multilateral development banks, the
IMF and often governments themselves. Privatization of water is already
going on grand-scale, and I’m not referring in the first place to the
abhorrent water bottling by Nestlé and Coca Cola and thousands of
others, destroying the environment and often robbing the water, or
making it inaccessible, of poor population. Case in point is Nestlé.
Nestlé India with its bottled water brand “Pure Life” was eventually
forced to quit India, because of multiple social conflicts with local
populations, where Nestlé’s massive groundwater pumping lowered the
water level so drastically that the local poor had no longer access to
their traditional groundwater, but had to buy Nestlé’s expensive bottled
“Pure Life” water.
Nestlé ran
into similar problems in Africa and even in the US. In Flint, Michigan,
where unpolluted drinking water is scarce, Nestlé paid an annual fee of a
mere US$ 200 for pumping one of the few remaining sources for private
rather than public water use. In drought-stricken California in 2015 and
2016, Nestlé in 2017, over-extracted water from the San Bernardino
National Forest Park with some 40 million gallons and with an expired
license of some US$ 500 per year, while water to farmers was rationed
due to the drought. Regulators eventually forced Nestlé to stop pumping.
See the multiply rewarded documentary film “Bottled Life”.
Nestlé’s ex-CEO, Peter Brabeck, said “Water has to be our chief priority”, to which Maude Barlow,
former Senior Advisor on Water to the United Nations replied, “Nestlé
is a predator, a water hunter”. Coca Cola, Pepsi and other water
bottlers follow the same unethical ways of basically stealing
groundwater from the common people, forcing them to buy their expensive
bottled water.
But the real
predators of water and those that are massively privatizing the last
uncontaminated sources of water in, for example, Amazon’s huge aquifers
and the Guarani fossil aquifer, arguably the world’s largest freshwater
reserve, are the giant water corporations like the French Veolia, and
Suez: followed by US ITT Corporation; United Utilities and Severn Trent,
Thames Water, UK; American Water Works, US; – and an ever growing
number of corporations that see the future in privatizing first the
source, then the city water supply of mega-cities, where already today
the poor and favela inhabitants are deprived of fresh water, because
they can no longer afford privately supplied drinking water – which
increases intestinal diseases and child mortality all over the globe.
And worse is to come, as privatization of water is becoming a worldwide
powerful weapon.
Numerous huge
water giants install themselves through proxy companies or farmers on
top of the Guarani aquifer which is almost entirely fossil water
(non-renewable), and receive lifelong water licenses. The Guarani
aquifer is said to have the capacity to supply the world population for
the next 200 years with some 100 liters per capita per day. The
inhabitants of Frankfurt use some 120 l/c/d. Imagine, this huge
non-renewable aquifer in the hands of private corporations which could
turn on and off the spigot at will – or according to ‘maximizing profit’
principles. A powerful weapon. If remaining unchecked, it is clear who
is losing and who is winning.
Today, RT
reports that Greek President Tsipras has just launched a sales pitch to
the Greek people, that it would be a good idea to privatize Greek water
supply. Can you imagine? After all that this criminal despot leader has
already done to Greece – now privatizing water.
Studies
carried out by the very World Bank, the institution that pushes for
water privatization like no one else, except for the IMF, found that in
parallel with water privatization in South Africa – intestinal diseases
and child mortality increased in townships. After Nelson Mandela was
elected President of a free South Africa in 1994, the western
international financial vultures, like WB, IMF, FED via Wall Street,
descended on Pretoria to persuade him and his government to privatize
most everything. “It was good for paying back the accumulated debt of South Africa.” Yes,
of course. People had no choice. Poor people in townships could no
longer afford drinking water supplied to their modest homes or yards –
but had to resort to traditional sources, like polluted ponds and
streams. – How will the Greek cope with privatized water?
France, home
to the two largest water corporations, Viola and Suez, started in 2010
remunicipalization of water with the city of Paris, followed by all
major cities in France. Authorities realized that the cost of water was
way too high for the quality of service provided. Similar motives
prompted Berlin to go the same way.
Water
is life. And life does not just cave in. It will fight for survival.
But the enemy, the privatization corporations, like mining companies
that irreparably destroy nature and populations social fabric, are
backed by entire armies – the US, UK, German and NATO armed forces – to
defend the rights of corporations… and the loser is…. Or would be, if
the population would not wake up in time to defend their right to water,
their Human Right to Water.
Digitization of money and
the economy is another tentacle of the evil octopus. Its advancing very
fast with cryptocurrencies leading the way. Digitization of money is a
means for the government or any oppressing force to control populations
by holding on or confiscating their vital resources to sustain live,
their income. Blockchain moneys like Bitcoins, ‘specialists’ say, are
more secure than any banking system the world has known so far. That
myth seems to have been broken. CNBC reported on 29 January that the
Japanese cryptocurrency exchange had been hacked and about US$ 535
million equivalent of Bitcoins were stolen. This is the largest Bitcoin
heist in Bitcoin’s relative short history of barely 9 years. So much for
security.
As of January
2018, there are close to 1,400 different cryptocurrencies on the market
and rising. Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile and speculative and
therefore preferred currencies for crooks and speculators. One
of the major hubs for cryptocurrencies and their ‘marketization’ is –
you guessed it – Switzerland, the banking center of everything and
‘smart’ banking. Blockchain currencies are so complex and complicated
for the common citizen to understand that even an IT expert has a hard
time weaving his way through the maze of cryptocurrency technologies. –
Which is good. Because propaganda will assure that enough people who
have no clue of what they are doing are duped into making a quick buck.
They have seen how. The price of Bitcoins is listed on a daily basis
along with the regular stock market fluctuations. Bitcoins have
increased in value from zero in 2009 to more than US$ 20,000 at their
peak in December 2017. In the meantime, Bitcoin’s value has slipped to
about US$ 10,000 (30 January 2018), but could be way different tomorrow.
But
digitization is not just about cryptocurrency. It is also a small
octopus, advancing on several fronts, of which blockchain currencies are
just one tentacle. There is at least one other more potentially harmful
menace to the common citizen, like gradually eliminating cash and replacing it by digital currencies.
This
is already happening, almost clandestinely – throughout Europe,
starting with Scandinavian countries where certain department stores do
no longer accept cash. Imagine – what it means when you can’t go anymore
to your corner ATM to get cash to buy your groceries? You will be
enslaved to the gnomes of banking, of digital banking, that is. It is
another powerful weapon to subjugate people to do what they are told,
lest sanctions in the form of blocked or outright confiscated accounts
might be used as the “new sanctions”. These modes of punishment can
induce famine, expropriation of properties and savings, poverty,
eventually disease and reduction in life expectancy as a result of ever
growing destitution – see Greece, which has been made poor by sticking
to a fake and fiat currency, the euro, that is like digital money,
stealing the countries assets through debt.
If
we eventually were to live in a digital economy, it means that every
value is electronic, the tangibility of hard work and physical output,
the production of labor, is worth only what smart ‘digits’ will allow it
to be. If the neoliberal system wants to save on labor costs – the
value of labor output can be reduced to almost zero. So, every social
value, social statistic, becomes a potential farce, is manipulatable
which today is already the case with the figures of unemployment,
inflation and ‘growth’ – economic growth. For example, in our linear
western world destruction is growth. It requires production of weapons
(growth) and eventually reconstruction – growth again. And everything in
between, like the industry around war injuries and war deaths, is
growth. All with a profit motive – and an overarching motive of
subjugating populations to the hegemon of Washington.
This leads to yet another tentacle – Propaganda –
all-embracing propaganda, controlled by six Zion-Anglo media giants
that control some 90% of the news the west receives 24/7. The news sells
you all evil about Russia, Syria, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, China – and
whoever else does not want to submit to the empires rules. Propaganda in
the west is nothing less than propaganda of deceit. It sells you the
idea that war is good for peace – hence a never-ending war against
terror. Propaganda invents terror and terrorists by making you believe
that all those who disagree with a despotic system are terrorists and
have to be fought. Propaganda sells you falls flags as reality.
Propaganda
western style is one of the worst, most deadly weapons to hegemonize
the world, as it makes the common citizen root for war, root against
North Korea, a country whose only objective it is to defend itself, not
to threaten the world, as western propaganda has you believe. Propaganda
is also omission of facts – important facts, namely that the western
powers, the US and its European puppets, the EU and NATO are the most
dangerous rogue nations and organizations populating Mother Earth these
days, and have been for at least the last 200 years. But despite the
endless killing by these monsters, constituting the head of the evil
octopus with its multiple tentacles, people do not realize who is their
enemy – thanks to western deceit-propaganda.
Take
the Olympics. After banning Russian athletes from participating in the
Rio Games following the infamous McLaren Report on doping which has
often been criticized of being manufactured, the same McLaren Report is
behind prohibiting Russia from participating in South Korea’s winter
games in Pyeongchang this month. This is sheer politics,
Russia-denigrating propaganda. And now banning even the majority of the
some 600 “clean Russian athletes” from participating under the most
ludicrous arguments, is not only unjustly hurting individual athletes,
who have never had anything to do with doping, it’s a repeat Russia
bashing.
The
President of the World Anti-Doping agency (WADA) said in a recent
interview with RT, there was in fact not enough evidence to prove a
state sponsored doping system in Russia. Nevertheless, he obviously went
along – had to go along – with the Russia banning decision. We never
know what would be at stake for these officials, if they were to follow
their common-sense judgement and internal moral standards. The IOC
(International Olympics Committee) is totally corrupt and bought by
Washington. This is, by the way true for all International courts and UN
organizations. They have all become a travesty.
Nothing
prevents Russia from calling and organizing her own Olympic games, the
Russian Olympics. It would be interesting to see how many western
countries would dare to participate. I bet, many would wake up, because
they would love to bond with Russia, if for nothing else but business,
but are afraid to do so with Washington bully’s sword swinging above
their necks. Sports is always a good reason for mending disagreements,
which are actually only imposed ‘disagreements’. – How long will fear
prevail over reason? – The light At the end of the tunnel is in sight.
Albeit,
it is a shame and surprising that the world just looks on. People
cannot be that dumb not to recognize that this is all a propaganda to
portray Russia around the world as evil. This sort of propaganda, adding
to the military threat that Russia is said to present to the world,
when the real danger comes from the US and its NATO allies, is deadly
propaganda, provoking war. President Putin plays it “Tao” – he is
relatively quiet, non-aggressive – the non-aggressor will always win in
the long run.
The final blow, however, the ultimate tentacle, is conventional warfare,
sowing conflicts and proxy wars – what we know too well – what has
dominated the last two decades. When none of the other tentacles do
their illegal job radically enough, then comes the traditional killing
machine, enhanced Regime Change through Color Revolutions, through false
flag assassinations, NATO or mercenary invasions, planted “civil wars” –
i.e. Ukraine, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan – and now even Iraq. Take the
case of Fallujah, where massive weapons of depleted uranium were
purposefully used by the US army, leaving the city and surroundings
scarred for decades, for generations to come.
It
is mass murder perpetrated by Washington and its dark invisible
string-pulling handlers. These killings have genocide proportions. Yet,
genocide is almost never mentioned when the most atrocious killings are
carried out by the United States. I wonder why?
If
we do not wake up, we will not escape. I few do, we may. It’s five to
high-noon. It would be hell, not nuclear hell, but ‘octopus hell’, as we
will be surrounded by different killing techniques or tentacles of the
monster – and don’t know where to go and cry for help. Certainly not to
our western leaders, not to those, which we believe we elected to do the
best for Us, the People. No, these leaders are all corrupted, bought,
they all have their little space reserved in paradise, for doing what
they are doing helping the minuscule elite to dominate all – literally
to reach Full Spector Dominance. – That’s what the PNAC (Plan for a New
American Century) openly declares as the hegemon’s ultimate goal. – At
the end of the day, they – our lovely puppet leaders – may get a cold
shower, when they have done their job as they were told – and find out
that they too are dispensable like trash; like Us, The Common People. No
scruples by the self-styled dark handlers of the western race. You only
live once.
