One of the major authoritarian measures adopted at the beginning of this decade in the name of countering coronavirus was “vaccine passports.” These certifications, on paper or in electronic form, that a person had received the government specified minimum number of experimental coronavirus “vaccine” shots were required by select governments across the world for individuals to carry and present at checkpoints in order to go about their activities.
Continue readingArgentina President Javier Milei came into office as a big booster of Israel and Ukraine wars reliant on aid from the United States government for continuation. In response to President Nicolás Maduro this weekend winning reelection in Venezuela — a long-term US target for “regime change” — Milei is speaking in unison with the US government as well.
Continue readingIn his effort to promote the United States government pursuing a noninterventionist foreign policy, Ron Paul has often commented that sanctions are an act of war. Like other acts of war, Paul argues, the right course is to avoid sanctioning unless actually necessary to defend America from attack.
Continue readingOn July 2, I wrote about the United States government’s new version of Operation Warp Speed undertaken in the name of countering bird flu. An early component of the new program for expedited bird flu mRNA shots development, I noted, involved the US government providing 176 million dollars to Moderna.

Often overlooked today is that the Declaration of Independence asserted the independence of each colony as its own nation — a state. The Declaration of Independence did not assert the existence of an overarching nation of the United States of America.

Apparently contributing to this outcome, wrote Blumenthal, was an Israel government policy called the Hannibal Directive.
Continue readingLast month, I wrote about how the death toll from Israel’s war in Gaza may be significantly higher than the commonly cited estimate that has lately been stuck at under 40,000 individuals. A Friday article at The Lancet medical journal makes the case that the death toll, conservatively estimated, may be more than four times higher — even if the war were to end immediately.
