Face Saving Fake Attack

Slipping Out Sideways,

  After going to bed last night with a troubled mind that there were explosions in Iran, I was relieved this morning to discover that they were all up in the air, and that Israel had authored them through drones, maybe even from local proxies. No damage or death actually happened in Natanz, where Iran's biggest nuclear facility is, after Iran said it would strike Israeli nuclear plants if Israel hit Iranian nuclear plants, having already proved that they could.

  Israel will take the consolation-prize of slaughtering the rest of the Palestinians, and scorching the earth which is their home, the US having vetoed the UNSC proposal to present the recognition of Palestinian Statehood to the General Assembly for a vote, which was the only vote against that proposal... "Israel's only friend".

  What will the "friends" decide to do next week? Their threat-dominance vanished last weekend, and is now threat-vulnerability to Iranian hypersonic missile strikes on US military bases and Israeli electrical generation plants and transmission lines, even if no nuclear sites are hit. It seems that a long walk back should be beginning.

​  Israel has mounted airstrikes on Iran, US confirms, as Tehran plays down attack   US officials have confirmed that Israel has carried out airstrikes against Iran, as explosions were reported in the sky over the cities of Isfahan and Tabriz, while the Iranian government sought to play down the scale of the attack....
..Officials from the Biden administration said Israel had informed Washington earlier on Thursday that a strike was coming in the next 24 to 48 hours... According to CNN, the Israelis assured the Americans that Iran’s nuclear facilities would not be targeted...
..Friday morning’s strike, whatever its scale, was an act of defiance of US influence.
​  Netanyahu, in particular, has long been a hawk on Iran, having threatened Israeli strikes on the country in the past, and has been under pressure from far-right coalition partners to mount a robust response.
​  With the scale of the retaliation so far extremely limited, the far-right Israeli national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, condemned the response on X as “Feeble!”​  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/19/israel-iran-airtstrikes-ifsahan-tabriz-drones-explosions

​  Tehran plays down reported Israeli attacks, signals no retaliation   Iran's foreign minister said the drones, which the sources said Israel launched against the city of Isfahan, were "mini-drones" and that they had caused no damage or casualties... ..The limited scale of the attack and Iran's muted response appeared to signal a successful effort by diplomats who have been working to avert all-out war since an Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel on Saturday.
​  Iranian media and officials described a small number of explosions, which they said resulted from air defences hitting three drones over Isfahan in central Iran. They referred to the incident as an attack by "infiltrators", rather than by Israel, obviating the need for retaliation. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/19/israel-iran-airtstrikes-ifsahan-tabriz-drones-explosions​  

Iran Warns of ‘Tit-for-Tat’ Strikes if Israel Targets Iranian Nuclear Facilities   Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned that if Israel targets Iranian nuclear facilities, it will face “tit-for-tat” attacks on its nuclear sites.
​  “If the Zionist regime decides to take action against our nuclear facilities and centers, it will definitely face our reaction,” said IRGC Gen. Ahmad Haqtalab, according to Iran’s PressTV. “For a tit-for-tat retaliation, the regime’s nuclear facilities will be attacked with advanced weapons.”
​  Haqtalab also signaled Iran could reconsider its ban on developing nuclear weapons. “If the fake Zionist regime decides to use the threat of attacking our country’s nuclear centers as a tool to put pressure on Iran, it is possible and conceivable to revise the nuclear doctrine and policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran and deviate from the previously declared considerations,” he said.​  [One must wonder if Iran already has nuclear weapons, though "everybody" says "they don't"]​  ...Despite constant claims from Israel and Iran hawks in the US, Iran is not developing or seeking to develop nuclear weapons, something that has recently been reaffirmed by US intelligence and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On the other hand, Israel has a secret nuclear weapons program that is not subject to IAEA inspections since it’s not a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. https://news.antiwar.com/2024/04/18/iran-warns-of-tit-for-tat-strikes-if-israel-targets-iranian-nuclear-facilities/

​  Iran Unveils Next Generation Bavar 373 Long Range Air Defence System Amid Threat of Israeli and Western Attacks ​  Iran did eventually acquire enhanced S-300 variants from 2017, but has placed no further orders since. Iranian government sources have claimed that new variants of the Bavar 373 entering service from 2021 were more capable than the Russian S-400 system that Moscow showed greater willingness to sell to Iran from the late 2010s, although these claims have been seriously questioned outside Iran. The latest variant of the Bavar 373 has a longer engagement range than most S-400 units and all S-300s, with only a portion of the Russian S-400 inventory having been equipped with the latest 40N6 missile providing a 400 kilometre engagement range.​  https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/iran-next-generation-bavar-373-threat​  

Defense Sector Panicking: Iran Missiles Defeated "Most Advanced, Integrated, ABM Defensive Systems"   5 to 7 missiles hit Nevatim. The Israelis have acknowledged 2 runways and three warehouse structures hit.​ Not a knockout blow — it wasn’t intended as such.
But any Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) expert would note that the point of impact was center mass, a clear indication of precision guidance.
​  5-7 missiles hit the world’s most heavily defended location, defeating an integrated ABM defense that was custom built to defeat the very missiles it failed to shoot down.
​  THAT has some people in the Defense sector, literally panicked.   You see, if 5-7 missiles got through, then it is a given that others can get through.  And simple math reveals that had Iran fired thirty (30) missiles at that base, the base would no longer exist.​  https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/component/content/article/defense-sector-panicking-iran-missiles-defeated-most-advanced-integrated-abm-defensive-systems

​  Leaked Cables Show Biden Pressuring Nations to Oppose Palestine’s UN Membership    The Biden administration—which claims to support Palestinian statehood—is lobbying UNSC nations in an effort to wrangle enough “no” votes so that the United States can avoid resorting to a veto... The U.S. argument essentially is that the U.N. should not create an independent Palestinian state by fiat—even though that’s precisely how the world body voted in 1947 to establish the modern state of Israel.   The renewed push for Palestine’s U.N. membership comes as Israel wages a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.​  https://scheerpost.com/2024/04/18/leaked-cables-show-biden-pressuring-nations-to-oppose-palestines-un-membership/

​  On Thursday, the US vetoed a UN Security Council resolution that would have granted Palestine status as a full UN member state, a move that goes against President Biden’s claim that he favors a two-state solution.
​  The US was the only member of the 15-member council to vote against the resolution, while the UK and Switzerland abstained. There were 12 votes in favor from Russia, China, France, Japan, South Korea, Ecuador, Algeria, Malta, Slovenia, Sierra Leone, Mozambique, and Guyana.​  https://news.antiwar.com/2024/04/18/us-vetoes-palestinian-bid-for-full-un-membership/​  

Majority of Israelis want to de-escalate tensions after Iran strike ​  The majority of Israelis (52%) believe that an immediate response to Iran's retaliatory strike is not desired, but rather prefer "to close the current round of hostilities," a recent poll conducted by the Hebrew University of Occupied al-Quds revealed, as reported by the Financial Times.

​  Freedom Caucus Posts Rotating Guard To Block Sneaky Leadership Moves   Specifically, they're wary that party leaders and their allies will, without prior announcement, bring measures to the floor and seek their passage via "unanimous consent." With that approach, the presiding officer simply states, "If there is no objection, the motion will be adopted." After a pause to allow for objections, the officer declares, "Since there is no objection, the motion is adopted."
​  That's where the Freedom Caucus's Floor Action Response Team (yes, "FART") comes in. With their round-the-legislative-clock presence, they always have a member positioned to object to unanimous consent motions, forcing proposals to go through a more arduous procedure.
​  House conservatives both inside and outside the Freedom Caucus are increasingly irate over Speaker Mike Johnson's actions, from pushing foreign aid for Ukraine, allowing omnibus spending bills that kick the fiscal can down the road, and personally casting the tie-breaking vote against adding a warrant requirement to the extension Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. All the while, he's pushed border security to the back burner.​  https://www.zerohedge.com/political/freedom-caucus-posts-rotating-guard-block-sneaky-leadership-moves

​  TOP LEGISLATORS, SOVEREIGNTY COALITION MEMBERS JOIN FORCES TO OPPOSE W.H.O.’S ‘GLOBAL GOVERNANCE’  Yesterday, Members of the U.S. Senate and House, together with leaders of the Sovereignty Coalition, held a Capitol Hill press conference to voice their opposition to the imminent adoption of two World Health Organization (WHO) treaties that are set to be agreed to in just 37 days.  Participants denounced the Biden administration’s intention to approve these treaties that surrender U.S. sovereignty, compromise states’ rights, and undermine, if not terminate, constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.​.. ..Coalition representatives announced a new “Not Now” emergency campaign aimed at heightening public awareness of the WHOs plans with the goal of deferring the international approval of those accords and requiring the U.S. Senate to provide its advice and consent prior to the Biden Administrations assent the Pandemic Treaty and amendments to the International Health Regulations... ..Sovereignty Coalition released the results of a new national poll of 1,000 likely voters conducted last week by McLaughlin and Associates. As Senator Johnson observed, when asked “Do you want decisions about your health made by people you elect, or an international official appointed by the Chinese Communist Party?” respondents preferred our present system over the “global governance” alternative by a margin of nearly 75 to 9 percent. They also expressed a preference for a candidate who wants the Senate to approve the WHO treaties over one that doesn’t by a 64 to 16 percent margin.​

  Nattokinase Dissolves Fibrinaloid Microclots​ , Preclinical Study Shows Dose-Dependent Effect, Offers Hope ​  Post-acute sequelae after SARS-CoV-2 infection (long COVID) and after COVID-19 vaccination are characterized by micro blood clotting . The work of Scheim et al suggests the majority of syndromes in both cases are due to Spike protein mediated hemagglutination and then the development of small clots that serve the major organs in the body. Xi et al demonstrated increased risk for microclots visualized in retinal arteries and veins in the COVID-19 vaccinated.
​  Grixti et al point out that nattokinase has quickly become part of community standard of care for post-acute sequelae...
..As you can see, the effect was dose-related. This suggests even greater biological plausibility that Nattokinase can indeed dissolve microclots. The next sets of experiments should test microclots induced by Spike protein, thrombin, and fibrinogen. The clinical community has a long way to go in translating these results from bench to bedside. There is a great need for dose-ranging studies with Nattokinase in humans to study fibrinolysis and risks of bleeding.​

These are not the words of a mentally ill person. They appear accurate to me. Do you find anything wrong with them?   37-year-old Max Azzarello has been identified as the man who set himself on fire near the NYC courthouse where Donald Trump's 'hush money' trial is taking place. He is in critical condition in a burn unit, police said Friday.
​  Before setting himself on fire, Azzarello dropped a stack of pamphlets that led people to the "Ponzi Papers" substack - in which he writes: "My name is Max Azzarello, and I am an investigative researcher who has set himself on fire outside of the Trump trial in Manhattan."
​  Azzarello claims that a totalitarian conspiracy is in play, orchestrated by the U.S. government and its allies, aiming to impose a fascist world order.
This extreme act of protest is to draw attention to an urgent and important discovery:
We are victims of a totalitarian con, and our own government (along with many of their allies) is about to hit us with an apocalyptic fascist world coup.
​  These claims sound like fantastical conspiracy theory, but they are not. They are proof of conspiracy. If you investigate this mountain of research, you will prove them too. If you learn a great deal about Ponzi schemes, you will discover that our life is a lie. If you follow this story and the links below, you will discover the rotten truth of ‘post-truth America’. You will learn the scariest and stupidest story in world history. And you will realize that we are all in a desperate state of emergency that requires your action.
​  To my friends and family, witnesses and first responders, I deeply apologize for inflicting this pain upon you. But I assure you it is a drop in the bucket compared to what our government intends to inflict.​  Because these words are true, this is an act of revolution. -The Ponzi Papers​  https://www.zerohedge.com/political/shocking-video-shows-man-engulfed-flames-outside-trump-trial-nyc
