World is now closer to nuclear war than ever before — US journalist Carlson
No one in Washington "is working to make sure that this conflict doesn’t become a nuclear holocaust," the journalist said. https://tass.com/world/1881689

Gilbert Doctorow interview with transcript, A long chat with Free Canada: Dimitri Lascaris in Montreal Do you think based upon statements coming out of the Russian Federation, that Russia will strike a Western military asset outside of Ukraine in response to a Ukrainian attack on Russia with Western supplied missiles? And if so, what kind of damage would such a Ukrainian attack have to inflict on Russia for Russia to respond in that manner? ... ..Doctorow: I think that may not be a measure that they entertain at all, considering what now seems to be their strategy. The strategy is to destroy the regime in Kiev. It is Mr. Zelensky, who is shaken thoroughly by the power of the Oreshnik hypersonic missile to destroy bunkers up to 200 meters deep. The sort of bunker that he finds refuge in, the sort of bunker that the American and West European generals are sitting in while they do the planning of the actions for the Ukrainian army.
In other words, he is the one who is amazingly vulnerable and he is not a member of NATO and he can be destroyed at will by the Russians. Therefore, the pressure point is really on Kiev right now and not on Berlin or London or Washington. This is much safer, it’s much less likely to lead us to a nuclear war, and it is the most efficient way of getting what the Russians want, which is regime change in Ukraine.
Another factor in this new strategy that I see is that they are not interested in waiting one minute for Mr. Trump to come to power. They are, by all of his recent appointments, by the outrageous statements of some of these appointments, they understand that nothing good will come with the inauguration of Mr. Trump. It is outlandish claims to be able to resolve the war by knocking heads together, by threatening the Russians. That is unacceptable.
It is not feasible, as the Russians understand, and there’s no reason to coddle him. So the pressure point is now on Kiev, And I think it will be felt. We will see. The Russians have not only destroyed some of the 20% of power generating facilities still standing in Ukraine in the last two weeks. But they’ve also attacked various bases where there were foreigners.
And when they knew there were foreigners, they killed a number of Frenchmen. They killed 40 Americans, they say, in another attack at another location in Ukraine. And they are showing their strength right now using missiles that are less capable but very efficient. The Iskander, this is a 500 kilometer range missile that is not hypersonic, but that gets the job done at rather low cost. And they’re saving their still rather few Oreshniks. https://gilbertdoctorow.com/2024/12/03/a-long-chat-with-free-canada-dimitri-lascaris-in-montreal/
John Helmer with recent-historical analysis: THE INCITATUS PRECEDENT IN US STRATEGY, THE CALIGULA CURE IN RUSSIAN STRATEGY There has never been a transition between US presidential administrations which has been so replete with new Washington-directed violence across the world. That’s to say, the escalation of wars already under way and the instigation of new ones to the furthest limits of the US empire’s reach.
As the Pentagon war-gaming of the Reagan Administration proved in secret, neither escalation of conventional war nor escalation to nuclear war can be controlled when Americans are running the game. That’s because Americans always think they have firepower superiority (aka shock and awe).
That this superiority has been defeated since 2022 with the destruction of every US weapon and operation plan on the Ukrainian battlefield has spurred the projection of Washington’s denial – that’s Freudian denial — to every other untested battlefield... ..The best ending to Cold War 2.0 can – and should – be the third option. This is the one which Russia originally had in mind in the guise of the USSR back in time, thirty-five years ago.
This finale can be formalized through a new agreement between Russia and the United States (as well as China, Iran and other Great Powers). As part of such an agreement, the parties will announce the end of the new cold war, but this time with a common understanding of the terms of their agreement. This will also be perceived in the United States as a defeat – but in fact it will be a universal victory.
The United States must abandon its claims to global hegemony and become a normal Great Power. One of the poles in a multipolar world. And in this multipolar system, the parties will combine both rivalry and cooperation in their relations with each other. And in this outcome, along with the second cold war the first one will be completely over. https://johnhelmer.net/the-incitatus-precedent-in-us-strategy-the-caligula-cure-in-russian-strategy/#more-90774
US will have to pay much more ("weapons" = $) to kill all these younger Ukrainians: Ukraine Negotiating Plans to Draft 18-Year-Olds With US - Foreign Ministry Tykhyi argued that Kiev did not see the scale of mobilization as the main problem. He insisted that Ukrainian armed forces lacked weapons to arm those already drafted. Volodymyr Zelensky signed a law in April to lower the conscription age from 27 to 25, prompting a public outcry. The government said in August that it had no plans to drop the draft age lower. A Ukrainian lawmaker said in September that the army had banned recruiting citizens under 25, who previously had the "fit for limited military service" status. https://sputnikglobe.com/20241204/ukraine-negotiating-plans-to-draft-18-year-olds-with-us---foreign-ministry-1121084502.html

Watch: US A-10 'Warthog' Filmed Engaged In Attacks Over Eastern Syria The Pentagon is perhaps reluctant to comment, also just ahead of the new Trump administration taking office in January, given the fact that it's waging a war in Syria - including the deployment of warplanes - with no Congressional debate or approval whatsoever.

Patel wants to go after corruption in upper management, not investigators. Influential retired FBI leader says agents back Kash Patel as next director: ‘He's the right fix’
“This guy is completely and 100% qualified to run that organization. He's what's needed today. He's the right fix,” retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jeff Danik told Just the News in a wide-ranging interview Monday.
While Democrats and news media critics have suggested that Patel was selected to be a loyalist seeking revenge on Trump foes, Danik noted Patel's extensive career experience, which includes stints as a federal public defender, federal prosecutor, counterterrorism director at the National Security Council, senior counsel to the House Intelligence Committee and chief of staff to both the Defense Secretary and the Director of National Intelligence.
“He has the correct balance, in my view, having been there for almost 30 years,” Danik said of Patel. “He has the correct balance of prosecutor, which is what we do. We feed the prosecution tube. Defense attorney, so the other side of that coin. Intelligence, the intelligence agencies, which is a key element to the FBI's either success or failure." "And then also, I think this is personal, that he's been a victim himself of the system,” Danik said. https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/all-things-trump/influential-retired-fbi-leader-says-agents-back-kash-patel-next

Written by 28 “experts” the book describes a global taxation scheme to fund the UN’s operations; a standing UN army; an Economic Security Council; UN authority over the global commons, expanded authority for the Secretary-General and much more. By 1996, some of the plans had already been implemented. https://expose-news.com/2024/12/03/uns-global-neighbourhood-plan/
"Death Eaters"? JK Rowling Got thousands of threats of murder, rape and violence "I’ve been sent thousands of threats of murder, rape and violence. A trans woman posted my family’s home address with a bomb-making guide. My eldest child was targeted by a prominent trans activist who attempted to doxx herand ended up doxxing the wrong young woman. I could write a twenty thousand word essay on what the consequences have been to me and my family, and what we’ve endured is NOTHING compared to the harm done to others."
"By standing up to a movement that relies on threats of violence, ostracisation, and guilt-by-association, all of us have been smeared and defamed, but many have lost their livelihoods. Some have been physically assaulted by trans activists. Female politicians have been forced to hire personal security on the advice of police." https://www.independentsentinel.com/jk-rowling-sent-thousands-of-threats-of-murder-rape-and-violence/
Swansea mother ‘traumatised’ by arrest under Terrorism Act
Emma Kamio describes ‘abuse’ of act after daughter’s alleged involvement in action against Israeli arms company Kamio said she was initially taken to Swansea police station on 6 August and then to Bristol. She said her daughter Leona, 29, who lives in London, was brought from a different police station in Bristol and both were put in cages in the back of van, from which they could not see each other, for a high-speed blue-lights journey.
“I can’t tell you how terrifying that was,” Kamio said. “I just had one hand on the panel and my foot up against the front to brace myself, because there was no lap strap or seatbelt, and all I kept thinking was one wrong move and my [other] children lose their mother and sister in one hit. Just hearing a blue light and a siren [now], my whole stomach is back to that 120mph down the motorway.”
She said the cell in Newbury that she was initially placed in for two days had “the last occupant’s old dried faeces encrusted around the toilet”, and she was searched every time she left the cell (as was the cell) and again when she re-entered...
..“I knew I was going into shock,” she said. “I was fine for a couple of days and then I noticed I was shaking, I couldn’t stand. You feel like an animal in a cage once they take your belongings off you, that’s the only way I could describe it."
“They took five days to ascertain that I was innocent. I was eventually released without charge, without my belongings and without an apology, left on the streets of Newbury in my scrubs.” https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/dec/02/swansea-mother-traumatised-by-arrest-under-terrorism-act

Steve Kirsch, Australian excess deaths are highly correlated with the number of booster vaccinations Booster shots correlated strongly with excess deaths. Changing the number of unvaccinated people didn't change the excess deaths. Who would have guessed? Executive summary
This paper, The correlation between Australian Excess Deaths by State and Booster Vaccinations, published in the peer reviewed scientific literature in July 2024, showed:
a strong correlation between the number of booster shots, total vaccinations, and recent vaccination relative to excess deaths
the more shots, the more COVID cases
the booster shots kill approximately 1 person per 1,182 which validates our estimates of 1 per 1,000 killed by the shots.
Peter McCullough MD: Parents Hesitant to Vaccinate Children for COVID-19 Up to 95% Rates of Resistance to Unsafe, Ineffective, and Unnecessary mRNA Vaccines in Children
Peter Hotez Predicts Outbreaks Will Start on January 21. Unhinged vaccine fetishist implies that microbiology is on a political timetable. FLASHBACK: On January 11, 2017, Dr. Anthony Fauci gave a talk on pandemic preparedness at Georgetown University in which he stated: ‘No doubt’ Trump will face surprise infectious disease outbreak.
The most comprehensive study on Vax DNA sails through peer review. There are several aspects of this paper that are worth reviewing in detail. The paper not only settles some of the methods debate ongoing in the field regarding how to best quantitate the DNA in these vaccines, but it also transfects HEK cells with the vaccines and demonstrates the spike expresses for longer than 7 days and it doesn’t stay parked on the cell membrane. It get packaged and into exosomes and presumably exported all over the body.
This is an important finding as exosomes are exhaled and exported to the surface of the skin. This has major implications for the shedding story. If these exosomes contain plasmids, then the gig is up. That implies transmissible and potentially replication competent DNA that encodes spike protein and SV40 components.
