"Won't Get Fooled Again" ... that's gonna be running through my head all day. My default response to any and all mainstream stories now is, "Whatever they're saying, the opposite is probably the truth."

Another good one, and of course will be linking @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/

The Kamala /hyena picture ws perfect. May use that one in the future. And Won't Get Fooled Again by the Who , has always been in my top 10. Think it was one of the Lyrics For The Week that I post on Sundays several years ago when I first started my site in 2016.

Also liked your mention on the CFR and Atlantic Council. Was actually doing a little digging last night on think tanks and I think for a writer of your nature, it would make an interesting article in it's own right on how the think tanks, the elite and the media are all entwined. It's really amazing when you start looking into that rabbit hole on how many members of think tanks are featured on the MSM as influence peddlers and propoganda pushers. Plus the money and who gives it that bankrolls these think tanks, foundations and organizations. Consider an article sometime. I think you would do well on it!!!

Great post once again GC--covers most all of the current manufactured crisis. All I can add is my standard comment that the official (western) narrative is always a lie, and I pray that more and more are coming to understand that every day. Putin has been a burr under the saddle for the US and it's flunkies in the EU ever since GWB realized what he actually saw when he looked into Putin's eyes was a man who was pro Russia over any thing else. Twenty years of being demonized is enough for any man, and I am glad to see Putin finally taking some real action. Talk does not work with countries incapable of agreements, or even honest negotiation. The US has not had any true diplomats for a real long time now. How this is all going to sort out is still, at this time. anyone's guess. Will sanity return to the political halls of Europe, or will the one time crazies in the basement take us all down. I'm glad I'm an old man.

This is very good writing and analysis. The endless swill that issues forth from the liberal fascists - government, legacy media, monopoly medicine - is of course offensive. But what will bring down this corrupt regime is that they can't deliver the goods any more. Things are falling apart, are not built, everything costs more, other places make better stuff, chronicity of disease increases. At some points, the inflated finance debt bubbles cannot be maintained. And then, the knives will come out. Prick down their names! And let them know it.

As long as there are plenty of lemmings, the hyenas will have plenty of food. It is with sorrow that I can only look upon a next doubling down. Our anger and frustration will change nothing. I feel we are as much documenting current events for posterity, as trying to change what is coming. Slowly but surely I don't know who to detest more, the hyenas for being themselves of the lemmings for not standing up and looking for the abyss.

If you're a little bit like me dear Good Citizen, writing helps to alleviate the pressure. And I don't mind the sermon while singing in the meager choir at all. So keep-em coming.

Listening to sermons from the choir pit is the only thing keeping me going. Five years ago, I thought my husband and I were the only sane people left on earth. Now, thanks to independent media, I know I'm actually in a large, growing minority, if not majority, of people who are wide awake.

Props for digging to the bone we need to keep exposing with its hyena teethmarks ever present: the toxic captured media. And for describing it all so bloody well. :)

I really like the 2 pix of the hyenas. IMO, the 4 legged one with big ears is much prettier and more trustworthy though.

Thank you, as always, GC. I used to think the people reporting for “my side” were telling the truth. Now I realize I’m in my mid fifties and know literally nothing about the real world. Please keep up the good work.

Excellent post, Good Citizen. Interesting use of the word "hyenas" to describe these freaks. You know who else called out the (international) "hyenas"? Decades ago?? Calling them out for their treachery and destruction and actually trying to warn the world about them"? Of course, official history has been written, so to suggest there's more to that story is to be--according to today's hyenas--racist, misogynist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, etc., etc. Because "everybody knows" everything they need to know about that part of history, especially the person who went to war against the "hyenas". It's official history. It's settled, don't you know--making questions verboten. Just like the official lies of today that comprise official history that lies beyond question brought to us by...the hyenas.

There is no side to support in the Ukrainian conflict or whatever the check it is. Putin is a thug, out for himself and the continuation of his contol, and maybe expansion of it, in his apparent desire to recreate the USSR. With that said, US actions vis a vis Ukraine, and Ukraine itself, are much as you describe.

The Russian empire, prior to the "Russian" revolution, included Ukraine and Poland, and it extended all the way to Germany, albeit with Germany's former border to the east. Putin shows little sign of wanting to restore that or the USSR. The idea is diversionary warmonger propaganda aimed at hoi polloi. But you can be sure that Russia will not tolerate forever the USA's conquest of Ukraine or another effort to bring Kazakhstan into orbit around the Global American Empire.

As usual, the present crisis is provoked by the habitual warmongers of the USA and Israel, which are encroaching through NATO. This is, more or less, according to a vison* explained in 1962 by David Ben-Gurion, cofounder of Israel and at the time the PM. Without the USA and its foreign policy director, which I won't name here, there would be no crisis. Likewise, there would have been no "Ukrainian" revolution in 2014 with the usual suspects like Vicky Nuland involved. Nord Stream 2 would go on line and stay on line as expected, which is in the best interests of both Russia and Germany, esp. with Germany shutting down the last of its nukes very soon. But the relationship angers lots of folks, esp. Yankees and Jews who imagine theirselves entitled to rule Europe, to sell American NG to Europe, and to conquer the world without resistance.

=============

* It appeared in the form of a prediction for 1987 back in 1962, when it was not immediately clear that the USSR would disintegrate. "Western and Eastern Europe will become a federation of autonomous states having a Socialist and democratic regime. With the exception of the USSR as a federated Eurasian state, ail [sic] other continents will become united in a world alliance, at whose disposal will be an international police force." He explained also that "In Jerusalem, the United Nations (a truly United Nations) will build a Shrine of the Prophets to serve the federated union of all continents; this will be the seat of the Supreme Court of Mankind, to settle all controversies among the federated continents, as prophesied by Isaiah."

THIS is what's been going on in Europe since before the breakup of the USSR, and which accelerated after the USSR passed away. It explains criminalization of Holocaust infidelity in most of Europe. It explains the so-called civil war in Syria, which stands in the way of Eretz Yisrael. And it explains American antagonization of China and encroachment in the western Pacific. The WEF is merely a stalking horse with a technophilic kook as its rider.

This is an excellently educational article. I have a question based on some things recently brought forth.

There is info now on how government and state leaders around the world, especially the US, were educated in Claus Schwab's WEF leadership school. And he is on vid crowing about how he has people from his school infiltrating governments around the world, mentioning names like Merkel, Trudeau, many US governors and Mayors, etc. And yesterday I heard that Putin was also a graduate of that school.

Is that true, and if so, how would that reflect on the information in this article? It seems the world is truly corrupt and convoluted beyond getting a handle on!

It raises a lot questions for sure. Is Putin part of the WEF cabal? Was this invasion coordinated by both Russia and Western powers to drive up energy prices around the world to pave the way for the zero carbon WEF agenda while also planting the seeds for a greater global conflict down the road? The US wins by increasing military presence and arms contacts to EU counties. Putin wins by getting Ukraine back from US influence. The people all lose with higher prices of everything which is what they want. Who knows for sure. Anything is possible with these criminals.

It's a possible and likely scenario. Putin apparently has long been associated with Klaus and the WEF -- something cleverly hidden from many of us. I wanted to think that Russia offered an alternative to western decay, but seeing how the same c0r0na policies are being enforced there, it appears the Russian govt is just as bad as any other.

2019 Spring: After having driven 2 hours to hike 8 miles of Fiery Gorge then 2.75 hours back, we went to the newest True Food to eat, right on time for our reservation. All the crunchy swells were sipping their $14.00 organic martinis, and we got to wait, standing, obtrusively, eyeballed for 40 minutes. Seated it took 15 minutes to get water, another 20 for some of the appetizers (mine showed up after the entree, cold and oversalted_the waitron tld me it was my problem_I must have…)

All that to say you can’t tell an eatery by its glossiness. Let us not forget that newspapers were monopolized by Rockefeller and his European counterparts prior to The War to End All Wars. Why League of Nations? Why the Titanic? Why the Federal Reserve?

Why Lusitania?

Hyenas useless _ but still abound _ laughing all the way to the Bank.

The US UK will make things worse while selling more arms to EU countries enriching their defense contractors. High energy prices mean the people pay more for everything, gas , food, everything that requires transport will increase with higher energy prices. The people lose again. The elites can start their zero carbon bug world transition.
