Twice Russia helped the United States against the British/Rothschild Empire - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 17 Nov '19

17 Nov '19

Speaking of true allies, Russia, on a nation-state basis, is about as good as it gets for a true ally of the USA (Australia notwithstanding). "Twice Russia helped the United States against the British/Rothschild Empire; first by openly supporting them in the Independence War, and again in the Civil War, when Rothschild’s were funding the Confederates to politically break down the nation to bring it back in the British colonial Empire’s coop. Russia also destroyed Napoleon and the Nazis, whom were both funded by international banks as tools to crush economically independent nations. Independence is in their DNA." ... "Central bankers and the US shadow government are still hanging on to their dying plan, because without a victory in Syria, there’s no enlarging Israel, thus ending the century-old fantasy of uniting the Middle East oil production in the hands of the New World Order. Ask Lord Balfour if you have any doubt. That’s the real stake of the Syrian war, it’s nothing short of do or die." Before you LOL at "Trump is an anti-narcissist", think: could that be true? And if so, how? Here to suggest an alternative view (or rather, whole bunch of interesting views, one of which I disagree with) is Sylvain LaForest via Oriental Review: Everything You Need To Know About Trump (But Were Afraid To Admit You Wondered) https://orientalreview.org/2019/11/15/about-trump/ https://www.zerohedge.com/political/everything-you-need-know-about-trump-we… ... "If you still believe that the «Commander in chief» is in charge, explain why every time Trump ordered to pull out of Syria and Afghanistan, more troops came in? As I’m writing this text, US and NATO troops pulled out of the Kurdish zones, went to Iraq, and came back with heavier equipment around the oil reserves of Syria. Donald has a lot more of swamp draining to do before the Pentagon actually listens to anything he says." ... "One has to realize how much trouble the US army and spying agencies have been going through in creating false-flag operations for more than a century, so that their interventions always looked righteous, in the name of democracy promotion, human rights and justice around the planet. They blew up the Maine ship in 1898 to enter the Hispanic-American war, then the Lusitania in 1915 to enter WW1. They pushed Japan to attack Pearl Harbor in 1941, knew about the attack 10 days in advance and said nothing to the Hawaiian base. They made up a North Vietnamese torpedo aggression on their ships in the Tonkin Bay to justify sending boots on the Vietnamese ground. They made up a story of Iraqi soldiers destroying nurseries to invade Kuwait in 1991. They invented mass destruction weapons to attack Iraq again in 2003, and organized 911 to shred the 1789 Constitution, attack Afghanistan and launch a War on terror. This totally fake mask of virtue has to be preserved for controlling the opinion of the American citizens and their domestic arsenal, who have to believe that they wear the white cowboy hats of democracy. "So how did Trump react when he learned that American troops were re-entering Syria? He repeated again and again in every interview and declaration that «we have secured the oil fields of Syria», and even added «I’m thinking about sending Exxon in the region to take care of the Syrian oil». Neocons, Zionists and banks were thrilled, but everyone else is outraged, because the vast majority doesn’t understand that Trump is swallowing this pill solely for its after-effects. On this single bottle is written in fine print that «the use of this drug might force American-NATO troops out of Syria under the pressure of the united world community and flabbergasted American population.» Trump made the situation unsustainable for NATO to stay in Syria, and how he’s been repeating this deeply shocking, politically incorrect position clearly shows his real intention. He destroyed over a century of fake virtue in a single sentence. "Trump is a historical anomaly Trump is only the fourth president in US history to actually fight for the people, unlike all 41 others, who mainly channeled the people’s money in a pipeline of dollars that ends up in private banks. First there was Andrew Jackson who was shot after he destroyed the Second National Bank that he openly accused of being controlled by the Rothschild and The City in London. Then there was Abraham Lincoln, who was murdered after printing his «greenbacks», national money that the state issued to pay the soldiers because Lincoln had refused to borrow money from Rothschild at 24% interest. Then there was JFK, who was killed for a dozen reasons that mostly went against the banks and military industries profits, and now is Donald Trump, who shouted that he would «Give America back to the people». ... [If you have the time to continue, and love a litany of twists and turns, this one's got a couple more at least ...]

How in the holy Universe would one ever distinguish that this "system" over time was working anymore than random chance? Also, what is the difference between your system that Assassinates Politicians and a duplicate system in which one donates small amounts of cash to sway peoples opinions away from said politicians views, call it Political(instead of Character) Assassination. One says the correct phrase out loud/online/wherever, enough times, it will take away power from their political rivals. Make people listen, because you have effectively muted your rival. What would be the difference, minus the permanency of death? I would say MY ideas is far superior, as yours does not take into account in any way shape or form the fact that even without computers, for centuries, good bad and even many indifferent ideas had been remembered, from people who were in fact, long dead? Oh my gosh though, I believe I have just invented the internet! People talking about shit they prefer instead of shit they don't! GENIUS! Sorry there's not enough murder for ya.

Iatrogenics - ~230,000 deaths per year in the USA alone - "health" "care" - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 17 Nov '19

17 Nov '19

So getting surgery, going to hospital, and/ or a doctor prescribing drugs for you which you thereafter consume, can be a life ending event. In fact, around a quarter of a million such deaths, every year, in the USA alone. That's a quarter of a million people dying, unnecessarily, year in, year out, due to medical errors or other "unfortunate" and avoidable problems. Consider exercising ... <sinister musak> discrimination </> ... before getting surgery or going to a doctor (but if you really do need to go, do of course go). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iatrogenesis#Epidemiology

I'd be proud to do it. Even after everything that's happened so far. Strike that; ESPECIALLY after everything that's happened so far! The way I see it, they're going to have to deal with this issue eventually, and it's possible that it won't be obvious to them that libertarianism and AP mix. Indeed, I think they MUST mix; we have no choice in the matter. Jim Bell jimbell(a)pacifier.com

Correct. Any method for killing humans is fatally! flawed unless it includes simultaneous killing the author, supporters and/or applicator of the method. Untold millions have been slaughtered by those who expect to avoid what they preach others to do. Truly courageous killers kill themselves and nobody else to satisfy their lust to be god. Still, the killing industry and homicidal faiths persist by promising the killers they will be honored by their cowardly manipulators.

Political Shock Therapy

I think federal employees in Washington, D.C. should have a serious impediment to their ability to get to work. I would like to speak to a supervisor, someone with some real discretionary authority. I think 24 hours is not insufficient, considering that I'm dealing with some form of goldfish with opposable thumbs.
