Fellow Non Members,
The City of London has commanded the western neoliberal financial order, but lost bets to destabilize and asset strip Russia, and now "holds" a lot of assets in parts of
Ukraine which are occupied by Russia. Those are pretend-assets, aren't they? What is the leverage? “The west” is already in “an armed confrontation with Russia”, no? "The World Is Becoming More Dangerous Than Ever": London Calls on the West to Mobilize for War with Russia The West should prepare for an armed confrontation with Russia. This was stated by former British Defense Secretary Tobias Martin Ellwood. According to him, the US and its allies should mobilize all forces, since it is impossible to win this confrontation by military operations alone... ..He adds that in the war of the future, which will likely be a possible confrontation between Russia and the West, it is unrealistic to count on success with only armed forces. The former head of the UK Ministry of Defense emphasized that he also means space and cyberspace. Society must understand what to do to protect our country. And that mindset is not there yet. It will probably take a major event for the West to understand that we are so afraid to take risks with the problems that are coming our way that our world order is starting to crumble. – the former British Minister of Defense emphasized.
This statement should not be underestimated, if only because it is written in purely British logic. And the retired military official's mention of a "serious event" that is about to take place can hardly be called an accident or a slip of the tongue. Britain is a master at organizing various provocations. https://en.topcor.ru/55009-mir-stanovitsja-opasnee-chem-kogda-libo-v-londone-prizvali-zapad-mobilizovatsja-na-vojnu-s-rf.html
I found this story first: Did Israel explode a small nuclear bomb in Syria? Spike in radiation report says… Reports have added that the European Union's Radioactive Environmental Monitoring found that the amount of radiation increased in Turkey and Cyprus hours after the intense blast, pointing towards a small nuclear attack. https://www.india.com/news/did-israel-explode-a-small-nuclear-bomb-in-syria-spike-in-radiation-report-says-7490316/
Then I found this version on the links at Naked Capitalism: Nuclear attack in Tartus (Syria):
Radioactive fingerprint of nuke (Tartus) measured in Cyprus within ~16 hours after the attack. [Note that the dose rate peak cannot be ascribed to precipitation as higher precipitation occurred on Dec 5 with no discernible radiation increase] https://x.com/Ben68638515/status/1871046543958331531?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1871046543958331531%7Ctwgr%5E4e8dde317f9f86259724eca1073234f0f49e881f%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nakedcapitalism.com%2F2024%2F12%2Flinks-12-28-2024.html

Houthis Target Israel's Ben Gurion Airport In Overnight Ballistic Missile Attack Despite yesterday's wide-ranging Israel aerial assault on Yemen, the Houthis have hit back - showing they remain undeterred in their willingness to attack Israel - having launched an overnight ballistic missile on Tel Aviv.
The missile was reportedly intercepted by air defenses before it entered Israeli airspace, but a Houthi spokesman claimed that Ben Gurion international airport was targeted in a significant escalation. The Houthis even claim it was hit. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/houthis-target-israels-ben-gurion-airport-overnight-ballistic-missile-attack
Israeli troops burn north Gaza hospital after forcibly removing staff and patients Israeli troops stormed one of the last hospitals operating in the northernmost part of Gaza on Friday, forcing many of the staff and patients out of the facility, the territory’s health ministry said.
The Kamal Adwan Hospital has been hit multiple times over the past three months by Israeli troops waging an offensive against Hamas fighters in surrounding neighborhoods, according to staff. The ministry said a strike on the hospital a day earlier killed five medical staff.
Israel’s military said it was conducting operations against Hamas infrastructure and fighters in the area of the hospital, without providing details. It repeated claims that Hamas fighters were operating inside Kamal Adwan, though it provided no evidence.
Hospital officials have denied the accusations. https://www.arabnews.com/node/2584403/middle-east

Russian Cargo Ship Which Sank in Mediterranean last Week "Attacked" The Russian cargo ship Ursa Major sank in the Mediterranean Sea after three explosions on the starboard side in what is now clearly an attack, Oboronlogistika, a company that owns the ship, told media outlets.
Details about the incident:
The ship sank 67 miles off the coast of Spain and 45 miles off the coast of Algeria. The ship left St. Petersburg for the port of Vladivostok 12 days ago. "During the emergency external inspection of the vessel, a hole of 50x50 cm (19.6 x 19.6 Inches) in diameter was discovered above the waterline. The edges of the hole were torn and turned inward. The deck of the ship was strewn with fragments."... ..It now appears that the vessel was intentionally attacked and deliberately sunk, perhaps by Ukraine, but more likely by another "state perpetrator."
The fact that the hole in the side was "above the water line" indicates the explosion took place via an unmanned sea vessel (drone) which Ukraine has used very frequently in its conflict with Russia. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/world-news/russian-cargo-ship-which-sank-in-mediterranean-last-week-attacked

US could buy Nord Stream – Vucic The sabotaged Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline could become the property of a US investor in a year, and gas supplies from Russia to the EU could be resumed through the connector, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has suggested.
Vucic shared his view about the future of the pipeline in an interview with the German news outlet Handelsblatt published on Friday. “I dare to predict: In a year at the latest, Nord Stream will be owned by an American investor, and gas will flow from Russia to Europe through the pipeline,” the Serbian leader said. “Mark my words. One year until Nord Stream is up and running!”
Last month, the Wall Street Journal reported that US financier and investor Stephen Lynch had asked permission from the US Treasury Department to buy the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, if it is put up for auction next year...
..While no one has claimed responsibility for the 2022 attack on the pipeline, Western media outlets have reported that a special operations team linked to Ukraine were behind the operation. US reporter Seymour Hersh has claimed that the US Navy set explosives on the pipeline during NATO exercises in the Baltic, and that the order to destroy the gas connectors was given by President Joe Biden. Most recently, a Danish harbor master has told the Politiken outlet that he had sailed out to the site of the blast and encountered US warships in the area of the explosion, but with their transponders switched off. https://swentr.site/news/610077-vucic-nord-stream-prediction/

His Gavel/Hammer brought down the dark forces of Martial Law: Unlikely political ‘Thor’ emerges from South Korea’s martial law crisis Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik’s adherence to constitutional procedure was key in overturning the president’s martial law decree and making troops stand down. After President Yoon declared martial law on the night of December 3, the 67-year-old Woo scaled the National Assembly fence after police barricaded the entrance to try and prevent lawmakers from entering and holding a vote to overturn the president’s order.
“I knew we had the constitutional authority to lift martial law,” Woo recalled later in a news conference. “I didn’t hesitate. I had to get inside the assembly, no matter what,” he said. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12/27/unlikely-political-thor-emerges-from-south-koreas-martial-law-crisis

Return to meritocracy? Trump DOJ Official Harmeet Dhillon Will Drop Hammer On Woke Corporations A combination of rising legal risks, the deflation of wokeness as a cultural force, and a change in leadership at the Department of Justice. Andreessen highlighted that with the appointment of Harmeet Dhillon to head the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, the federal government may soon begin to challenge and reverse many of the DEI-driven policies that have dominated corporations, universities, and other large institutions over the past decade.
This shift, he argues, could trigger a major pullback in DEI initiatives across the private sector, as companies scramble to comply with the law and distance themselves from policies that may now be seen as legally and culturally untenable... .."I think every major corporation in the country is just in flagrant violation of actual civil rights law. You cannot have these hard quotas and racially, ethnically, and religiously biased hiring practices. It’s flat-out illegal. These companies have gone so extreme on this that they’ve ended up in what I think is clearly mass illegality. So, as Dhillon steps into her job, she’s not going to lack for a shortage of targets. If you don’t want to be a target, it’s a great 'get out of jail free' card to just voluntarily shut all this stuff down." https://www.zerohedge.com/political/marc-andreessen-every-signal-being-sent-trump-doj-official-harmeet-dhillon-will-drop

A state monopoly on violence/justice is more efficient, unless it doesn't work. The Game Theory of Giving Up Private Justice or Ending The State Monopoly On Violence In the state of nature, if someone does you wrong, it’s up to you and your mates to deal with it. This often means violence.
For most of English history there was no police force. Republican Rome had no police. There was law, but it was often privately enforced and often families and friends would take vengeance for wrongs. This led to rather a lot of violence and death, as well as feuds, where violence would continue long beyond the original offense.
Private justice; private vengeance thus comes with huge downsides, so in many societies we give up our right to use violence to right wrongs. We give that right to government in some form, and we reap the benefits of safety and that, in principle, stronger groups can’t bully those who are too weak to obtain their own justice.
The benefits are huge and everyone with sense recognizes that going back to private justice, to saying “they did me or mine wrong, I should beat or kill them” will mean a huge loss of public safety. But whenever there’s a situation where changing from the status quo entails a huge cost there will be those who say “in that margin, I can benefit. All I have to do is take just a little less than the cost of change.”
How many people does private insurance and denials of care kill? It’s certainly, at least, in the tens of thousands.
What happens is simple enough. Some people, rich and powerful, get the right to harm others for money: the government doesn’t go after them for killing or hurting people. This is true of private equity buying companies, larding them up with debt then running them into bankruptcy so that many of their employees wind up impoverishing and homeless, for example. It was true of bankers causing a financial crisis. It is true of pharma jacking up prices or bosses stealing employees wages and water companies in the UK dumping sewage into the river and giving the money intended to clean sewage to their executives and investors.
None of this is punished by the law, yet people suffer. But the cost of going back to private justice is HIGH and the transition cost, where the police and courts will charge those who enforce private justice with crimes, while not charging those who kill thousands with crimes, is awful. So the bet by those who commit what has come to be called “social murder” is that they can get away with it: the cost of private justice is too high.
Still, there’s always the temptation to take a little more, then a little more and then a little more. To think, “well, I’m so rich I can have bodyguards and travel by helicopter and private jet and armored limo. The peons can’t get to me.” ... ..This isn’t, of course, an endorsement. It’s analysis. It’s in no one’s interest for the situation to become so awful that ending the state monopoly on violent justice makes cold hard rational sense for millions of people. But that appears to be where we’re heading, if we aren’t there already. https://www.ianwelsh.net/the-game-theory-of-giving-up-private-justice-or-ending-the-state-monopoly-on-violence/

Cooking Oils Used By Millions Linked To Cancer In Second Study In A Week In two groundbreaking studies released just days apart, researchers have spotlighted a concerning link between widely used cooking oils and cancer risks, specifically pointing to tumor growth in the colon and other organs. These studies raise critical questions about the health implications of seed oils, a staple in kitchens worldwide... ..Cooking oils, often seen as innocuous kitchen essentials, may harbor hidden dangers that extend far beyond their caloric content. The scientific findings point to a troubling connection between these oils and the development of carcinogens during their use. Specifically, when oils like sunflower or soybean are heated, they release harmful compounds that have been linked to tumor growth...
..Choose Safer Cooking Oils
Replace seed oils like sunflower, soybean, and canola with alternatives that have higher heat stability and fewer harmful byproducts. Oils such as extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil are better suited for cooking at higher temperatures and are less likely to produce toxic compounds. Additionally, cold-pressed oils are less processed, retaining more of their natural nutrients and antioxidants. https://themindunleashed.com/2024/12/cooking-oils-used-by-millions-linked-to-cancer-in-second-study-in-a-week.html

It was easy... US spies hid Covid-19 lab leak evidence from Biden – media Pentagon researchers reportedly uncovered the origin of the coronavirus, but the president was not briefed on their findings https://swentr.site/news/610065-intelligence-covid-findings-biden/
People who don't visit doctors tend to live longer, Part VIII: Published Paper on Unvaccinated Health Outcomes vs. Vaxxed If you’re an American over the age of 18 who’s never been vaccinated (with anything, ever) your risk of even one chronic condition is less than 6%. If you’ve also avoided the “vitamin” K-shot injection (typically given at birth) AND your mother was not vaccinated during the pregnancy, your risk of one condition after the age of 18 drops down to 4.49%....No cancers, diabetes, arthritis, or heart disease were reported in the entirely unvaccinated adults. Based upon the random sample size, this means that the more serious conditions are below 0.09% in the entirely unvaccinated adult population.
However, vaccine-exposed Americans over the age of 18 carry a 60% risk of at least one chronic condition, with a 48% risk of heart disease, over 10% risk of diabetes, 18% risk of arthritis, and myriad other life-shortening and/or debilitating diseases, including MANY brain and neurological disorders. 42% of vaccine-exposed American adults are suffering from more than 1 condition, i.e., multiple conditions. And 12% of American adults are suffering from 5 or more conditions.
New Study Finds COVID-19 'Vaccination' Doubles Risk of Post-COVID Death. COVID-19 'Vaccines' = Life-Reducing Injections
Evaluation of post-COVID mortality risk in cases classified as severe acute respiratory syndrome in Brazil: a longitudinal study for medium and long term
Results: In the medium and long-term periods studied, 5,157 deaths were recorded out of 15,147 reported SARS/COVID-19 cases. Of these deaths, 91.5% (N = 4,720) occurred within the first year, while 8,5% (N = 437) after the first year. People without formal education, the older adult, had higher percentages of deaths in both periods. In the medium-term post-COVID period, the risk of death was reduced by 8% for those who had been vaccinated while in the long-term post-COVID period, the risk of death almost doubled for those who had been vaccinated. While in the medium term, there was a reduction in mortality risk for those who took two or three doses, in the long term the risk of death was greater for those who took one or two doses.
Conclusion: The protective effect of COVID-19 immunization was observed up to one year after the first symptoms. After one year, the effect was reversed, showing an increased risk of death for those vaccinated. These results highlight the need for further research to elucidate the factors that contribute to these findings.

Kyle Young, from August 20, 2022 Donald J. Trump - part 2 - The Forbidden Story, A tale of two Trumps, Tesla, death rays and UFO’s
In his later years Nicolas Tesla was working on what some called a death beam. The FBI and others called it a death ray. Tesla called it Teleforce...
..President Trumps uncle, Dr. John Trump (1907-1985) was a professor of engineering at the MIT School of Engineering. Leading up to that, his primary teacher at MIT was Professor Robert Van D Graff (1902 -1967) who is known for 7 patented inventions having to do with ‘Van De Graff’ high voltage generators.....But John Trumps real mentor at MIT was Dr. Vannever Bush (1890 - 1974) the dean of The School of Engineering, the founder of Raytheon and science advisor to Roosevelt, Truman and Eisenhower...
..Bush played a critical role in persuading the United States government to undertake a crash program to create an atomic bomb.[65] When the NDRC was formed, the Committee on Uranium was placed under it, reporting directly to Bush as the Uranium Committee...
..As Dean of the MIT School of Engineering, Bush, who was 17 years older than John Trump, took him under his wing and mentored him about his real passion, UFO’s. True to its form, Wikipedia says nothing about either Bush’s work, or Trump’s work with UFO’s...
..When Nicolas Tesla (1856 to 1943) died, John Trump, who by then was Dr. John Trump and was a leading force at the MIT School of Engineering, was tapped by the FBI to review Tesla’s papers, right in Tesla’s apartment in NY, shortly after he died.
The FBI claimed that Tesla had invented a “death ray” that had the ability to take “flying objects down” (not destroy them) and they wanted to get their hands on any and all notes in Tesla’s possession, so they turned to Dr. John Trump, the leading authority on the topic...
..Here we have proof that Dr. John Trump’s boss and mentor, Dr. Vannever Bush was not only involved, but likely in charge of the DoD secret program to develop technologies from crashed UFO’s...
..Nixon, for all of his faults, was intent on disclosing UFO files. He was also interested in Tesla’s work on free energy and was in the White House when UFO redevelopment technology was really taking off at Pine Gap. Nixon wanted to make some of the UFO information public. Then he was impeached...
..Nixon created a time capsule that was to be opened in 2025. He gave the time capsule to Robert Merritt, told him what was in it, and told him to give it to Henry Kissinger. Many speculate the time capsule contains important information about UFO’s and an alien that has been in US custody for some time, an alien who has disclosed a lot of information. The story is little blurry, but apparently the time capsule is to be opened in 2025.
Through his wife Pat, who likely got the prediction from the occultist Jean Dixon (1904-1997, predicted JFK’s assassination, consulted with the Nixon’s 70 times while they were in the White House) Nixon tells Donald Trump in a 1987 letter, that he will become president. After his resignation, Nixon, the California guy, moves to NY. Trump and Nixon send a number of letters back and forth and Trump even flies Nixon around the country a few times. They become friends. Trump still speaks highly of Nixon to this day.
..Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State under Nixon, shared Nixon’s desire to open UFO files - which may explain why Nixon wanted Merritt to give the time capsule to Kissinger...
...Will Trump be in a position to open Nixon’s time capsule stashed somewhere in the White House by Kissinger, if he occupies the White House in 2025?
