Dude.... I had like three or four quotes that I LOVED:

1: "This is what “social” media has been reduced to—emotional manipulation for political expedience and social division. Put up flag avatars and repeat the mantras."

2: "To stick to principles in times of hysteria requires courage. To be balanced and thoughtful is to be brave."

3: "If our species is to survive this war then all human life must matter…with the exception of the global instigators that have declared war on us all. "

I honestly have nothing to add to this. This was an excellent piece. I just wish more people would stay away from the screens because we have NO way of telling what's true and what's fake:

I’ve been off social media (Instagram) for well over a month now - it’s been liberating. And I haven’t watched a TV in 15 years. When I heard about the ‘attack’ I said to my hubby, but Hamas is part of the ‘club’. How can people not know this? How can people not see that they’re being manipulated, by the ‘cult’, and by ‘influenzas’ on social media as much as by the MSM? Never mind, that’s a rhetorical question. *Sigh

"After a few hours of observing the spectacle on “X”, I only found two individuals with the courage to stick to their principles, call out the hysteria, question the official laughable narrative, and not make everything a tribal or political argument about the Orange man or demented one."

I lived through the past almost four years. Nothing (and I mean nothing!) coming from the political/media class is ever going to pass the smell test for me ever again.

I read a guy on Twitter called Clif High. Kind of controversial. Said he's going to quit Twitter because they are not letting him post anything that questions the narrative in terms of Israel/ Palestinians.

Hello, humans.

Clif has been particulary vocal about his linquistic model saying something big was coming...he though in the next three months (sept.) but I thought he was really thinking December...but maybe not.

Funny about the massive emergency alert system this month also.

I've been following Clif on and off for a long time. I don't think anyone has characterized The Big Ugly as well as he has. That being said, his month to month predictions are...hit and miss at best.

At this point, I'm beginning to think that ALL of this planned. ALL. OF. IT.

Here's his latest take on Israel:

Finally.....I had a short discussion with a vaxtard friend of mine. She is psychologically blocked re: vaxxination, but we can talk about other things. I've told her about CBDCs, 15 minute cities and the WEF. Today I commented that they ushering in a world war to cover for our financial collapse. She did not disagree. The point of all of this? Even if you can't reach someone in terms of the vaxxes, you CAN reach them on other topics.

It's refreshing to see David Icke call out both Peterson and "Top G" for their bullshit in one tweet. Neither has a damn clue what's happening and Peterson is part of Ben Shapiro's cult now, so he has to do the usual dance and kneel before Zod.

I know people online who don't support the vax but continue to push hopium and Q style nonsense. "Trump and Musk will save us from the WEF. Don't worry. Trust the plan and vote for our savior Trump next year. It will be fine."

Great post!! Not surprised by Kennedy. All the Christian Zios over at conservativetreehouse are completely hysterical, no questioning the narrative, no critical thinking, just believing the official story as usual and cheering for escalation and revenge. I posted the below comments from former IDF people calling BS, but they just ignore such info because they are invested in the narrative.

Former IDF are questioning the narrative:

https://www.sott.net/article/484970-Israel-in-state-of-war-with-Hamas-after-Palestinian-militants-launch-unprecedented-incursion-into-Israel-UPDATES#comment475653 False flag!!! I’ll spare you the videos, but my morning started with my father sending me videos of IDF soldiers slaughtered in their barracks still in just their underwear, to which both of us as former service people ourselves immediately agreed that it’s im-fucking-possible! I did a service with IDF and have been to most bases in the south, and the ones close to the borders are always on highest level security alert: armed guards on towers 24/7 and all personnel are required to carry their personal weapons at all times… including sleeping with it literally under your mattress exactly for such situations! So how the hell could a group of Palestinians break into a base and make it all the way to the barracks unnoticed and unheard? I saw the media trying to sell a story that Iranians provided some equipment that jammed the electronically monitored fence, but any disturbance immediately notifies command and control center in Israel’s equivalent of the pentagon and someone would be immediately in touch with the bases’ commanders especially in the middle of the night. But even if that story is true, where were the night guards not to see the combatants approaching and alert everyone? With bases neutralized, there were no one to come to help the civilians in the area… how convenient.

https://twitter.com/Dr_logicaI/status/1710794054953553927 ex-IDF soldier explains that the events that took place today are impossible. She was a boarder observer with the highest tech available. "If a bird came close we knew" "Even even a cockroach came to our fenced border we knew" "How did 400 hamas pass through today"?

https://efrat.substack.com/p/israel-hamas-war-an-update I served in the IDF 25 years ago, in the intelligence forces. There’s no way Israel did not know of what’s coming. A cat moving alongside the fence is triggering all forces. So this?? What happened to the “strongest army in the world”? How come border crossings were wide open?? Something is VERY WRONG HERE, something is very strange, this chain of events is very unusual and not typical for the Israeli defense system.

Yeah, beyond sickening. I'm done posting there. And I was only really posting there because it seemed like a waste of time to only comment where people were awake (that wouldn't really move things forward in terms of increasing our numbers), But these people are beyond braindead- dumbest Fs on the planet. Most commenting over there still believe the official 9/11 BS story and refuse to question it.

I have seen more footage of Israel-Gaza attacks in 24 hours than I have seen of the Ukraine conflict in 20 months. In North America, where we are supposedly living in an information age. I think that speaks volumes about your theory.

Expand full comment

Good post. It's really hard to believe that the buildup for an operation that large would have gone unnoticed by Israel. I’ll quote from Giacomo Preparata in his excellent “Conjuring Hitler” about how our globohomo overlords operate:

"To isolate each conflict, the targeted territorial portion had to be severed from its adjacent district, and bled white by prolonged strife waged in the name of political, religious, or ethnic diversity. Thus the Anglo-Americans have always acted: in Europe by spinning everybody against Germany (1904-45); in the Near East, by jamming Israel in the heart of the Arab world (1917-present); in the Far East, by planting thorns in the side of China: Korea, Vietnam, and Taiwan (1950-present); in Central Asia by destabilizing the entire region intro tribal warfare with the help of Pakistan to prevent the Caspian seaboard from gravitating into the Russian sphere of influence.

Most importantly, in such trying games of conquest, results might never be expected to take shape quickly, but might take a matter of weeks, months or even decades. Imperial strategems are protracted affairs. The captains of world aggression measure their achievements, or failures, on a timescale whose unit is the generation.”

Here's a plausible scenario:

It seems clear that Iran has mapped out the unfolding wargame, with a brutal initial attack with lots of casualties and rapes and hostages and media uploaded online necessitating an expected Gaza invasion in response. The Gaza invasion will then spring a trap: Urban warfare will be very bloody against Israel with lots of Iranian surprises unless they're willing to accept much higher Palestinian civilian casualties than they've been willing to in prior conflicts (i.e. turning Gaza to rubble), but the more Gaza civilian casualties, the faster and more intense world opinion will turn against them.

Hezbollah then enters the war at some point, triggers the 20% Muslim minority within Israel who will riot/murder and maybe use targeted assassinations of top Israeli officials at their homes and such (this may be happening now, Hamas fighters in IDF uniforms going deep into Israel at the start of the operation), wait to see if U.S. intervenes and how much, then Iran/Syria enter, while U.S. is distracted China invades Taiwan, then U.S. institutes a draft (maybe after a domestic false flag?) and uses wartime environment to crack down on domestic free speech and further central bank agenda/Great Reset.

Kooky times ahead.

You might find this of interest as it relates to the typical reaction of DaNewAhmurika -

No, I didn't create this.....but it intrigued me.

You can read the whole thing at https://crushlimbraw.blogspot.com/2023/10/china-please-go-international-with-your.html?m=0 - where I archived it. It's an Unz piece and I think the author nailed it, regardless of the context of the event.

What about the US public? While not an inviolable math rule, I’d divide them up by the 30/30/30-10 formula. Thirty percent recognize the status quo needs an extreme makeover and want to end America’s forever wars. The next thirty percent are rabid sheep who require an enemy to keep their distorted chi flowing, and love watching computer screen images of foreigners getting blown up by the MIC or its proxy armies. For this group, the hundreds of billions of dollars along with the death and carnage is a small price to pay to bring “democracy” to Ukraine. How easy for the Deep State to sell them on the joy of exporting the Zelensky debacle to Taiwan. The last thirty percent are checked out. Their knowledge of current events is limited to their favorite sports teams, spokesmodel social media influencers, Hollywood celebrities, or porn channels. To be fair, some of this thirty percentile are also zapped out on drugs, consumed by the paycheck-to-paycheck survival hustle, clinically insane, or suffer from dementia. Giving them further credit, a percentage of the checked-out know a country called China exists because they ordered General Tso’s Chicken. The final ten percent come from planet Xenu and are thus bound by the Federation’s non-interference Prime Directive rule, which precludes any involvement in Earth politics. Ha ha ha- just joking. They’re actually from Voltron.

I think the US government has decided that it's going to inflate its way out of debt. Losing McCarthy scared them, and they know Ukraine's days are numbered. Now they're turning to the one issue that every good patriot must support -- preserving democracy in the Middle East. They'll do anything to print more money.

Here's some info from a financial perspective. Since we have a debt based fiat ponzi scheme monetary system, spending has to increase at an exponential rate to keep the system from collapsing. Best way to inject liquidity into the system is war spending. Basically, if there was peace the FED ponzi scheme would collapse!!

Here's Greg Mannarino who looks at this from a financial perspective and with an understanding of the global debt-based fiat ponzi scheme monetary system:

https://gregorymannarino.substack.com/p/what-you-must-be-made-aware-of-nowwe

This expanding war situation WILL add liquidity to the system, that is what it is designed to do, at the cost of as many human lives as it takes… But there is a BIGGER problem. Just as the Russia/Ukraine war has added liquidity, which is still being pumped into it today, it will NOT BE ENOUGH! So yet ANOTHER False Flag event will occur- just like this new war. BE READY FOR ANYTHING! This will not be the last FF… It sickens me to listen to the mainstream propaganda, PUSHING THE “Intelligence Failure” narrative, its quite the opposite really, and the timing of this is IMPECCABLE! With global debt market instability, stock markets rattling, crude oil falling… and POOF! Just out of nowhere, REALLY? Here is yet another conflict which will also go on, and on, requiring MANY MORE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, and MANY more lives. Oh! And lets not forget that this new declared war according to the MSM, is against “militants.” Its “The Militants?” Really? Go ahead, make this up…. Its impossible. (read his other posts on this, it's obvious that insiders knew from money suddenly moving into the market on Fri, bets on crude going much higher, just like the put options on 9/11)

I watch his stuff now and again. Honest takes. Along with George Gammon, Jim Rickards and a few others. There aren't many around. Two trillion annual deficits can't last long. They'll have to just keep printing while pretending to fight inflation. They're really imploding the fiat system and will need a catalyst as an excuse. They'll have to destroy crypto first, then fiat, then usher in their UBI tied CBDCs. Next 48 months max.

I find Greg the best on the outright criminality of this sick, demonic monetary system we are forced to live under. I watch others too, like George etc.

Have you heard about The Great Taking book, which recently came out, written by a former hedge fund manager, David Webb, who is warning that the central bankers have legislation in place around the world that allows them to LEGALLY take all bank deposits and securities as collateral on the quadrillion + derivatives ticking time bomb? A number of financial experts have read the book and seem to think the author and his warnings are legit (Mario/Maneco64, Doug Casey, Bill Holter and others). Ellen Brown, attorney and author of Web of Debt, has read it and thinks what David Webb warns about is true. So, she wrote an article about it which is posted on globalresearch.ca She says it would happen automatically without going through the court system. They would just hoover up all the assets. The book is available online for free: https://thegreattaking.com/

Things are so insane right now, that it makes me feel like we are living in some kind of sci-fi horror movie gone live.

It's so sad that these psychopaths have ruined life on this planet for everyone. We don't even have names of the people doing this to us.

Well, it appears that the turning of the opinion tide against the Ukraine adventure means that the globalists need to go back to the tried and true Israel-against-the-world meme to get WW3 started.

Only problem is, the reason the Ukraine gambit is falling apart -- more and more people are waking up to the lies -- is going to undo the Israel gambit as well. At least I hope so.

Funny, the contrasts and comps between the Pentagon on 9-11 and the Israel attacks. Two of the most surveilled spots in the world and neither had a clue and in the case of the Pentagon, there was absolutely no footage of a "plane" coming from afar and htting the damnable building.

Strange thing is all the surveillance cam video that the FBI somehow managed to ID, find, and confiscate from private buildings within hours. And of course the VDOT footage which has one cam that shows the entire horizon for miles, that footage never existed either.

Good to see that people are immediately questioning things however. I suspect that the Babylonian Talmudist satanists are going to put the screws to everyone soon in something leaning heavily towards as slash-n-burn scenario.

Yes, they're going to cook up something spectacular soon. Best to go as remote and off grid as possible. There's footage of a Raytheon cruise missile hitting the Pentagon, right where they were looking for that missing $2 trillion Rummy mentioned the days before. Irrefutable evidence the government was 100% behind the attacks. If you freeze it at the 23rd second you can see the missile's shadow.

LOL, indeed. But even rational intelligent people such as my brother insist that it was a 757. SMH

There's so much wrong with it. Go to the VDOT traffic cams and look at the one overlooking the either northern skyline over the Pentagon, from the south side of 395. I used to check it before going to work at times, it has the ENTIRE horizon on it. Where's THAT footage. The cam was ALWAYS pointed in that direction in the mornings, who knows, possibly evenings too but I never looked at it then.

Once you know what to look for almost nothing seems to match the narrative.

The thing that people don't seem to grasp, the "we're winning" types that have misplaced faith in THEIR political and THEIR legal SYSTEMS, is that the BT perps have zero qualms about wiping everything out if they even sniff a loss in the scenario.

Death, Pain, and Destruction are their sacraments.

Great catch on the shadow, that's the first time anyone's pointed that out to me. I've seen that video when it came out, but never noticed the shadow.

I went down to take zoom pics the next day from the road out in front of the former Navy Annex and across from the now removed Citgo gas station and was threatened with "a very bad day" if I didn't move. The threat came from afar and I simply played deaf until the slob got closer, then I took off. I still didn't get any shots that aren't readily available online.

But why the chaseoff? Also, both the Navy Annex and Citgo were removed because of their geographical reference issues that they created for the perps.

But no doubt you've seen the pre-collapse pics of the pentagon, a hole what, 8' in diameter. Most people have no idea that it collapsed afterwards, Bldg. 7 style.

Here's the pre-collapse pic for anyone reading; https://imgs.search.brave.com/yISVeMU96qyVWvWCFVMwRZ-ZjxA4Ar8lMJeWl9bAnas/rs:fit:860:0:0/g:ce/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWFn/ZS5wYnMub3JnL2N1/cmF0ZS9hMGY4YTM1/ZC0xZTUzLTQ5Mjkt/YjVlMy0zMzgxMDEy/MWM5MjQuanBnP2Zv/cm1hdD1qcGc
