15 State Officials Warn Bank Of America About 'De-Banking' Of Christians

by Tyler Durden

Sunday, Apr 21, 2024 - 10:40 PM

Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times,

A group of 15 financial officials from 13 states sent a notice to Bank of America, raising concerns about the institution’s “de-banking” of Christians.

“We write to express our concerns over Bank of America’s troubling track record of politicized de-banking. Bank of America’s de-banking policies and practices threaten the company’s financial health, its reputation with customers, our nation’s economy, and the civil liberties of everyday Americans,” the officials wrote in an April 18 letter to Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan.

“We are especially troubled by Bank of America’s track record of discriminating against religious ministries. Notable examples include Memphis-based charity Indigenous Advance Ministries, the Timothy Two Project, and Christian author and speaker Lance Wallnau.”

In April 2023, Bank of America shut down the account of Indigenous Advance Ministries, which partners with groups in the African nation of Uganda to provide care and education for orphaned and at-risk children. The bank closed accounts of a Memphis church which donated to the organization.

Bank of America provided “vague reasons” for the closure of these accounts, claiming the organization’s activities exceeded the institution’s “risk tolerance” and that it no longer wanted to serve its “business type.”

“Months later—after being confronted by an international media organization—the bank then claimed that it closed the accounts because the for-profit business engaged in ‘debt collection.’ Neither Indigenous Advance Ministries nor the church collect debts, nor was the bank able to point to any policy prohibiting account holders from engaging in such activities,” the letter said.

“In other words that rationale was a ruse, and even if legitimate, would only apply to one of the closed accounts.”

In 2020, the bank closed the account of Timothy Two Project International, which trains pastors in more than 65 nations. In a letter to the group, the bank claimed the closure was due to Timothy Two operating “a business type we have chosen not to service.”

The financial institution also froze the accounts of author Mr. Wallnau, alleging he was suspected of money laundering. However, the bank failed to provide any evidence supporting such accusations.

While the bank eventually unfroze the account, they required Mr. Wallnau to answer a series of invasive questions.

“This pattern of religious de-banking strongly suggests that systemic drivers of religious and political bias may be at work within Bank of America,” the letter said.

“One objective indicator of such a problem is the bank’s egregiously low score on the Viewpoint Diversity Score Business Index, the premier benchmark for measuring corporate respect for free speech and religious freedom. Bank of America scored a meager 8 percent out of a possible 100 percent.”

The letter pointed out that Bank of America’s vague terms of service allow them to deny services for political or religious views. For instance, the company’s policy says it can refuse services to clients deemed to “promote intolerance … or hate.”

This policy can be weaponized by the bank against clients who express certain views, which are protected by the First Amendment, the officials wrote.

“Bank of America funds and partners with anti-free speech organizations like the Human Rights Campaign and the Center for American Progress while preventing employees from giving to faith-based groups in their employee gift match program.”

Bank of America, being the second largest bank in the nation and a recipient of a host of government subsidies, is obligated to ensure equal access to marketplace for all Americans and “not play politics,” officials wrote.

The letter was written by officials from Alabama, Arizona, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Utah.

They demanded that the institution implement certain recommendations, including eliminating “existing viewpoint discriminatory terms” governing customers, updating its terms of service to include a commitment to not discriminate on the basis of religion or politics, and taking part in a survey to assess how the bank’s policies impact the civil liberties of its customers.

The Epoch Times reached out to the bank for comment.

De-banking of Conservatives

The issue of de-banking conservatives has been a hot topic in recent years. A November 2022 statement signed by 60 financial professionals alleged that banks like JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Capital One, and Morgan Stanley were engaged in political or religious discrimination.

“JP Morgan Chase refused to process payments for a GOP-aligned organization,” it said.

In addition, the bank “shuttered the National Committee for Religious Freedom’s account without explanation, demanding that the nonprofit disclose its donors and provide a list of the political candidates it intends to support as a condition of resuming service.”

Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley refused to do business with organizations that raised “significant human rights, environmental, health, and safety or social responsibility issues.”

Similarly, credit behemoth Visa mandated that merchants do not use its services in any manner deemed “hateful.”

“What these vague, unspecified terms mean in practice is subject to the arbitrary interpretation of each of your companies, or any one of thousands of employees charged with enforcing them,” the statement said.

“Policies like these place customers and clients at risk of being ‘debanked’ simply because a company employee disagrees with their point of view on any number of contentious social issues.”

Meanwhile, states are taking action to end financial discrimination against conservatives by the banking industry.

Iowa earlier this year introduced Senate Study Bill 3094, which bans financial institutions from discriminating against customers using a “social credit score.”

The bill defines “social credit score” as any evaluation of a person’s “speech, religious exercise, association, expression, or conduct protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.”

If a financial institution is found violating the law, the attorney general can bring a civil action against the institution. A court can order the institution to pay damages, restitution, or other compensation.

In February, State Rep. Jason Zachary (R-Tenn.) introduced a similar bill in Tennessee. “This legislation prohibits the 20 largest banks in our country from denying financial services to any Tennessean based on political speech, religious belief, or a social credit score,” he said at a state House Banking and Consumer Affairs Committee hearing.

Thanks to Biden, China Could Start World War III Here

by Gordon G. Chang April 22, 2024 at 5:00 am

China is swarming the waters of the Philippines, hoping to intimidate Manila into surrendering territory. US President Joe Biden and the State Department keep on issuing warnings, but Chinese President Xi Jinping continues to ignore them, suggesting deterrence is failing....

[R]ecently, China took Scarborough Shoal .... Washington then brokered an agreement for both sides to withdraw their craft, but only Manila complied. Beijing has been in firm control of Scarborough ever since.

When Chinese leaders, generals and admirals saw Washington's failure to act, they began moving against Second Thomas Shoal and other Philippine reefs and islets in the South China Sea, went after Japan's islets in the East China Sea, and began reclaiming and militarizing features in the Spratly chain. Biden as vice president legitimized the worst elements in the Chinese political system by showing everyone that aggression works.

Beijing has been waging proxy wars on three continents: Europe in Ukraine, Africa across its northern rim, and Asia in Israel and surrounding areas.

Xi apparently now believes he is boss of the world. "Change is coming that hasn't happened in 100 years," the Chinese leader told Russian President Vladimir Putin after their 40th in-person chat, in Moscow on March 22 last year. "And we are driving this change together."

Biden is now trying to reestablish deterrence. Britain and France desperately attempted to do that in late summer 1939 when they warned Germany that they would declare war if it invaded Poland. Then, German leaders did not believe the British and the French would in fact fight because for three years they had failed to make good on previous warnings.

Philippine's navy announced that, during the afternoon of April 15, it had observed 55 Chinese vessels in the West Philippine Sea, Manila's designation for the South China Sea.

China is swarming the waters of the Philippines, hoping to intimidate Manila into surrendering territory. US President Joe Biden and the State Department keep on issuing warnings, but Chinese President Xi Jinping continues to ignore them, suggesting deterrence is failing and an incident leading to war could occur at any time.

Of the craft spotted Monday, 48 were from China's maritime militia, six from the Chinese Coast Guard, and one was from the People's Liberation Army Navy.

China's intrusions that day were spread across the South China Sea. Twenty-six of the vessels were spotted at Scarborough Shoal, six at Second Thomas Shoal, 20 near Pagasa Island, two near Panata Island, and the remaining one at Lawak Island.

Beijing claims all the features and waters inside its infamous "cow's tongue," now defined by ten dashes on official maps, which encloses about 85 percent of the South China Sea. Those waters, the Chinese proclaim, are its "blue national soil."

China's expansive claims to Philippine features in that body of water were invalidated in 2016 by a tribunal adjudicating Philippines vs. China, brought under the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea. The US Secretary of State at the time, John Kerry, said that Beijing should accept the 2016 ruling, but unfortunately also announced that Washington would not take sides. Backing Beijing's position on talks, he then pressured Manila to negotiate with China. Kerry, in short, could not bring himself to uphold the centuries-old American policy of defending international waters and airspace.

Beijing, with virtually no legal support, has consistently maintained that the decision in favor of Manila "is illegal, null, and void." "We do not accept or acknowledge the so-called award," the Chinese Foreign Ministry declared on X on the 18th of this month.

Second Thomas Shoal, where Manila in 1999 grounded the Sierra Madre, a World War II-era vessel, is now a flashpoint. There, Chinese vessels have recently engaged in rammings, water cannon attacks, and other dangerous acts. On March 5, China wounded four Filipino sailors at Second Thomas.

In response, the Biden State Department issued written warnings — two last month on March 5 and 23 — that the U.S. would use force against China to discharge its obligations pursuant to Article IV of the 1951 U.S.-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty.

Biden has orally issued similar warnings, for instance on October 25 of last year and the 11th of this month. On the 11th, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida visited the White House for defense talks, the first ever Japan-Philippines-U.S. trilateral summit.

Unfortunately, the Biden administration's words and displays of solidarity have not impressed Xi. His blue, white, and gray hulls — the maritime militia, coast guard, and navy, respectively — have stepped up aggressive tactics.

Has deterrence failed? True, China has not recently landed troops at a Philippine island, shoal, or reef. Yet the persistent pressure applied to the Philippines suggests Xi is not terribly worried about America opposing his adventurism.

Why would he feel so bold? For one thing, the Clinton administration in 1995 did nothing after China seized and later fortified Mischief Reef, 130 nautical miles from the Philippine island of Palawan and in the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.

More recently, China took Scarborough Shoal. Philippine authorities there had lawfully detained Chinese poachers in early 2012, and China's vessels then swarmed the feature, only 124 nautical miles from the main Philippine island of Luzon and about 550 nautical miles from China's Hainan.

Washington then brokered an agreement for both sides to withdraw their craft, but only Manila complied. Beijing has been in firm control of Scarborough ever since. The Obama administration, while Vice President Biden was in charge of foreign policy, did not oppose the audacious Chinese seizure.  etc.

HUGE COVER-UP? Russian Air Force shot down an Israeli F-35 leaving Jordanian airspace that was set to launch an EMP weapon over Iran

April 22, 2024

Via State of the Nation

Editor’s Note: Highly respected international geopolitical analyst Pepe Escobar made a startling revelation today via his Telegram account which sent shockwaves throughout the Global Intelligence Community.

But let’s first acknowledge that nothing about the recent alleged counter-attack by Israel against Iran’s Isfahan Air Base makes any sense whatsoever. In point of fact, everything about all the mainstream media report smacks of a highly coordinated cover-up by all sides. The stories not only keep changing, but they simply don’t add up, except as a very sloppy whitewash of a much more destructive operation.

Well, now it appears that there’s a very good reason why all the involved parties would want to keep such a daffy attempted EMP attack by Israel concealed. There’s no question that Netanyahu’s war cabinet was set on delivering a serious blow to Iran since their penchant for revenge always demands ten times the damage they receive from any enemy. Hence, the following account of the actual thwarted Israeli “EMP operation” does make a lot of sense.

And, given how criminally insane the entire leadership of the Zionist State of Israel is, such a brazen and reckless attack is certainly expected of Tel Aviv at any time. See: WATCH! Today, the barbaric Israeli regime dropped a 900 kg bomb on totally defenseless civilians in Rafah!

N.B. What follows is the original Alt Media report detailing this quite astonishing, yet very plausible, nuclear and/or EMP attack plan by the IDF.

Attempted EMP Attack Over Iran By Israel

Posted by Pepe Escobar

Israel initially chose to respond with extreme force.

An F-35 loaded with a nuclear bomb was sent east over Jordan.

The mission: cause a high-altitude detonation over Iran that would provoke a surge in the high-capacity power lines, crippling Iran’s electric grid, as well as disabling all electronic devices.

An EMP attack.

However…

… As the Israeli F-35 was leaving Jordanian airspace it was shot down by the Russian Air Force.

EXCLUSIVE

THE REAL STORY OF THE ISRAELI COUNTER RESPONSE

From a very high level intel source.

In Asia.

NOT Russia-China.

Although the strategic partnership, of course, exchanges at the highest level 24-7.

Confirmed and re-confirmed.

It will be great to know what Sy Hersh hears from his Beltway sources.

Here we go.

Israel initially chose to respond with extreme force.

An F-35 loaded with a nuclear bomb was sent east over Jordan.

The mission: cause a high-altitude detonation over Iran that would provoke a surge in the high-capacity power lines, crippling Iran's electric grid, as well as disabling all electronic devices.

An EMP attack.

However...

... As the Israeli F-35 was leaving Jordanian airspace it was shot down by the Russian Air Force.

Hence the publicised version of the Israeli counter response was such a travesty.

In the end all sides decided not to publicise the real news - to de-escalate what could well turn into WWIII.

Biden’s Crackdown on the Internet Is WORSE Than You Think | Glenn TV | Ep 343

We’re being played: The Left isn’t “saving democracy,” and the internet is NOT free. The Murthy v. Missouri Supreme Court case is just the tip of the iceberg. The pro-speech plaintiffs argue the Biden White House colluded with social media platforms to censor speech they don’t like. Speech on topics like COVID origins, masks, vaccines, lockdowns, the Hunter Biden laptop, climate change, mail-in voting, and election integrity. There is much more of this censorship in our future. Thanks to a FOIA request and eventual lawsuit brought by America First Legal, AFL was able to uncover a report by U.S. Agency for International Development that was intended for internal use only. Glenn digs into this report called the “Dis-information Primer,” which provides a disturbing insider’s view of our government’s strategies for dealing with rampant so-called “information disorder.” And instead of debunking speech it doesn’t like, the government employs a strategy called “pre-bunking.” Wait, what?! We are up against a SPRAWLING network of government agencies, think tanks, and the largest companies in the world, all collaborating in multiple ways with the same end-goal: to censor unapproved speech in media and especially online. And you can bet voices at Blaze Media will be first on the chopping block …

‘Conspiracy Theories’ Aren’t 'Theoretical' Anymore: The US Govt Happily Murders Political Opponents, Carries Out Bioweapon Attacks Upon The Population And Openly Steals Elections

- The US Govt Under Joe Biden Has Become The Laughingstock Of The Planet

By John Green and All News Pipeline April 22, 2024

The national mood in the mid-twentieth century was very different from now.

- The United States was respected around the world -- even if not necessarily liked.

- Technology was advancing faster than at any time in human history.

- Our cities were mostly orderly, safe, and clean.

- We believed there were few hardships which couldn’t be overcome with hard work.

- Opportunities seemed endless, as was our optimism.

- We were completely naïve about the danger posed by our own government.

Not everything was sunny. We had problems that needed attention. That is the nature of human existence after all. But when Ronald Reagan said, “Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem,” we just thought he was promoting self-reliance and highlighting government inefficiency. As I said, we were naïve.

Along with that naivete, was a belief that our government would never intentionally harm us. It might be incompetent, but we didn’t think it was malicious. Theories of vast government criminal conspiracies were considered delusional. Going to the police and claiming that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by the CIA (as Robert Kennedy Jr. is suggesting), would have gotten one labeled a “conspiracy theory” nut; and more likely would trigger a psych evaluation than a criminal investigation. That was the American worldview before Barack Obama.

Things changed in 2016 when the conspiracies stopped being secret. Government operatives decided they could work with a political party to stop an outsider from playing in their sandbox -- by any means necessary. The FBI, CIA, DNC, and MSM created the Russian collusion hoax to undermine Donald Trump’s campaign -- but he won anyway.

Four years later, the same conspirators colluded to withhold critical information from the voters which likely would have changed the outcome of the election. Seventeen percent of Biden voters claim they would have voted differently had they known about the Hunter Biden laptop. This time the plan worked, and Trump was removed from the Oval Office. But he was still a threat.

(ANP Emergency!: PLEASE donate to ANP! Due to the globalists war upon truth and the independent media, our monthly revenue has been cut by more than 80% so we need your help more now than ever before. Anything at all ANP readers can do to help us is hugely appreciated.)

When Trump announced his intent to run for office again, the DoJ in collusion with Democrat state and local prosecutors commenced a campaign of lawfare to scuttle Trump’s campaign. They twisted the law, and corrupted any notion of justice to indict Trump using legal theories which had never been tried before. They have identified their target, and are trashing our criminal justice system to get him -- and only him. Lavrentiy Beria would be proud.

Of course, the trials are being held in deep Blue Democrat party strongholds. Partisans in robes -- laughably calling themselves “judges” -- are ensuring that trials by Trump’s “peers” are actually trials by the Trump Derangement Syndrome-afflicted. Conviction seems inevitable.

To make sure the Trump problem is solved permanently, Democrat congressman Bennie Thompson has proposed a bill to strip Donald Trump of his Secret Service protection if he is convicted. Does anyone doubt Trump’s fate if placed in Attica or Sing Sing without his protective detail? Though the bill is unlikely to pass, it does reveal the Democrat mindset. They are perfectly willing to see a political adversary murdered -- so long as they maintain plausible deniability. But sure, Donald Trump is the real danger to our country.

Shockingly, the Democrats aren’t even trying to hide their intentions anymore. Apparently, they consider us too stupid or too powerless to stop them. That’s a rather sobering thought.

As we watch all this unfold, we know that vast government criminal conspiracies are no longer theoretical. There is nothing demented or delusional about believing our government would willingly facilitate the murder a political threat. The actions of the DoJ in conjunction with the legislation proposed by the Democrats makes that perfectly clear.

The plot to place Donald Trump at the tender mercies of a prison’s “genpop” is not the only evidence of government criminal conspiracy.

The ATF really did traffic guns to Mexican drug cartels to promote gun-control legislation. One federal agent and countless civilians were killed with those guns.

The DoJ sought to remove a duly elected President -- even to the point of the Deputy Attorney General offering to “wear a wire” to record conversations with the President (with cabinet support).

The FBI really did set up some useful idiots to advanced their domestic terrorist narrative (the Governor Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping). It was a classic entrapment scheme in which federal assets planned the crime, and hapless stooges stepped in the trap.

All this is changing our worldview and is causing us to observe our government with a new level of skepticism.

The deaths of Vince Foster, Seth Rich, and Jeffery Epstein were rather politically convenient for the Democrats. Were they something other than two random acts of violence and one suicide?

COVID was created using our tax dollars in a Chinese lab, and caused a pandemic which affected the 2020 election. Was it really an accident committed by well-intentioned, but careless scientists -- or something else? Certainly, the Democrats didn’t let that crisis go to waste. Many thousands died. Were they just the broken eggs needed to make the make the election omelet?

A Chinese spy balloon was allowed to cross our continent and collect information from our most sensitive facilities -- apparently with the blessing of the Biden administration. But we’re told that the millions of dollars flowing from China to the Biden family had nothing to do with the President’s decision to leave the reconnaissance craft unmolested.

Two whistleblowers (Gal Luft and Alexander Smirnov) have come forward with evidence of Joe Biden selling government influence to foreign nationals. Conveniently, both have been arrested by the same DoJ which is setting a death trap for President Trump.

Things have changed a lot since the mid-20th century. The children of the 21st century have a completely different worldview.

- The United States is a corrupt and impotent international laughingstock.

- We’ve become technically stunted. Replacing the Francis Scott Key bridge is expected to take three times longer than building the Golden Gate bridge almost a century ago.

- Our cities are becoming unlivable post-apocalyptic hellscapes.

- “Living the American dream” is no longer a middle-class expectation.

- We know that fear of our own government is a prudent mindset.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. doesn’t sound so crazy now that the conspiracies are no longer theoretical.

Which Major City Will Completely Collapse First – Los Angeles, Chicago Or New York City?

April 21, 2024 by Michael

In 2024, virtually all major U.S. cities have certain things in common. First of all, if you visit the downtown area of one of our major cities you are likely to see garbage, human excrement and graffiti all over the place. As you will see below, some of our core urban areas literally look like they belong in a third world country. Most of our politicians don’t seem too concerned about doing anything to clean up all the filth, and so it shouldn’t be a surprise that rat populations are absolutely exploding all over the country. In some of our largest cities, the total rat population is numbered in the millions. Meanwhile, rampant theft, out of control violence, endless migration, predatory gangs and the worst drug crisis in the entire history of our nation have combined to create a “perfect storm” of social decay that is unlike anything that any of us have ever seen before. Millions of law-abiding citizens and countless businesses have been fleeing America’s largest cities, and property values in our core urban areas have been absolutely crashing. We really are in the early stages of a full-blown societal “collapse”, and things just keep getting worse with each passing day.

In this article, I want to focus on the three largest metropolitan areas in the United States: New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.

John Williams recently took his camera with him as he walked through downtown Los Angeles, and he described what he witnessed as “hell”…

Decades of failed policies have transformed one of the greatest cities in the entire country into one of the worst.

At this point, theft has become so rampant that even the ultra-progressive politicians in California have come to the conclusion that something must be done.

So several bills that would “crack down on shoplifting” have been introduced in the state legislature…

Shoplifters beware.

The California Assembly has introduced a comprehensive package of seven bills aimed at addressing the rising concerns over retail theft across the state.

One of the key initiatives is Assembly Bill 2943, jointly authored by Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur (D) and Speaker Robert Rivas (D). The bill targets serial retail thieves by introducing a new crime with penalties of up to three years behind bars for possession of stolen property with intent to resell. It also allows for the aggregation of similar thefts from different victims to charge grand theft, under specific criteria.

Hopefully something will get done, because right now a criminal in the state of California can “literally walk into a retail store every single day of the year and steaI $949 worth of merchandise” and never spend a single minute in jail.

Los Angeles has become a paradise for shoplifters, but many would argue that things are even worse in the Big Apple.

As I discussed a few days ago, New York City has “a $4.4 billion shoplifting economy”.

And approximately 90,000 packages are stolen in New York City every single day.

This is just one of the reasons why we have seen a mass exodus.

Countless New Yorkers have already left for greener pastures, and lots more are thinking of leaving…

About 7 million New Yorkers plan to leave the state, a new survey revealed this month.

In a new Marist poll, 37 percent of New Yorkers—roughly 7 million people—said they plan to move away. The number was slightly more concentrated among Republicans, as 46 percent said they plan to leave the state compared to just 29 percent of Democrats.

Unsurprisingly, many of those that are fleeing are heading to Florida…

For many, Florida remains one of the top places to move, but Southern states in general have been recording the biggest influx in transplants.

According to Realtor.com, Philadelphia, Miami, Atlanta, Tampa and Orlando remain some of the top locations for New Yorkers to start again.

I wouldn’t want to live in the Big Apple either.

The rat problem alone would be enough for me to move.

It just continues to escalate, and politicians are now proposing to use “rat contraceptives” to deal with “the millions of rats lurking in subway stations and empty lots”…

In New York City, the idea to distribute rat contraceptives got fresh attention in city government Thursday following the death of an escaped zoo owl, known as Flaco, who was found dead with rat poison in his system.

City Council Member Shaun Abreu proposed a city ordinance Thursday that would establish a pilot program for controlling the millions of rats lurking in subway stations and empty lots by using birth control instead of lethal chemicals. Abreu, chair of the Committee on Sanitation and Solid Waste Management, said the contraceptives also are more ethical and humane than other methods.

Unfortunately, New York City doesn’t have the worst rat problem in America.

That title actually belongs to the city of Chicago…

Chicago has once again been declared the rattiest city in the U.S. according to Orkin’s annual ranking.

Los Angeles surpassed New York on this year’s list now holding the #2 spot and bringing the Big Apple down to #3, Orkin shared.

Other notable shifts included Houston, which moved 10 spots up to #20, and Charlotte, North Carolina that rose 16 spots to #21.

Somehow, the rat problem in Chicago has gone to an entirely new level in 2024.

In fact, one local resident says that it is now the worst that she has ever seen in her entire lifetime…

A resurgence of rats has gotten out of control in Chicago’s Portage Park neighborhood, multiple residents explained Friday as they called for city leaders to take further action.

Diana Gazda, a resident of the Far Northwest Side community for seven decades, said she has never seen an infestation like it.

“We never had a rat problem like this,” she stated. “I’ve been here 71 years in my house.”

In addition to being world famous for rats, the Windy City is also world famous for violence.

In Chicago, you can be gunned down at any time of the day or night.

Nobody is safe, and that is especially true for police officers…

A Chicago police officer was shot to death early Sunday in Gage Park on the Southwest Side in what sources are saying was an apparent carjacking.

Officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert about 2:55 a.m. and found Officer Luis Huesca with multiple gunshot wounds in the 3100 block of West 56th Street, a police spokesperson said in a statement.

Huesca, 30, was driving home from work, according to city officials. Huesca, who was still wearing his uniform, was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

So which of these cities will completely collapse first?

I think that is a very good question.

They are all headed downhill very rapidly, and they are all being run by radical leftists.

Of course the exact same things could be said about dozens of other U.S. cities.

For years, I have been warning my readers about the “cultural transformation” that has been taking place in America.

How we raise our kids really matters.

We have been failing them for decades, and now the consequences can be very clearly seen in the streets of our major cities.

A horrific societal collapse is upon us, and yet this nation continues to refuse to change direction.

Multiple rockets have been fired from Iraq towards U.S. military base in Syria

At least five rockets were launched from Iraq’s town of Zummar towards a U.S. military base in northeastern Syria on Sunday; two Iraqi security sources told Reuters.

The attack against U.S. forces is the first since early February, when Iranian-backed groups in Iraq stopped their attacks against U.S. troops.

The attack comes one day after Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani returned from a visit to the United States and met with President Joe Biden at the White House.

Two security sources and a senior army officer said a rocket launcher fixed on the back of a small truck had been parked in Zummar border town with Syria.

The military official said the truck caught fire with an explosion from unfired rockets at the same time as warplanes were in the sky.

“We can’t confirm that U.S. warplanes bombed the truck unless we investigate it,” said a military official on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the incident.

Columbia rabbi warns Jewish students to go home, don’t come back to campus because of ‘extreme antisemitism’

By Social Links for Doree Lewak and Social Links for Isabel Keane

Published April 21, 2024 Updated April 21, 2024, 12:47 p.m. ET

A prominent rabbi at Columbia University took the drastic step Sunday of warning Jewish students to go home and not return to campus because of “extreme antisemitism” at the Ivy League school.

The dire directive followed yet another night of virulent anti-Israel protests on campus — which included one protester holding up a sign suggesting that students waving Israeli flags should be the next target of Hamas terrorists.”

The events of the last few days, especially last night, have made it clear that Columbia University’s Public Safety and the NYPD cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety in the face of extreme antisemitism and anarchy,” Rabbi Elie Buechler told students Sunday morning over WhatsApp.

“It deeply pains me to say that I would strongly recommend you return home as soon as possible and remain home until the reality in and around campus has dramatically improved.

“It is not our job as Jews to ensure our own safety on campus,” he said. “No one should have to endure this level of hatred, let alone at school.”

Jewish students who showed up on campus Saturday night to protest antisemitism at the prestigious university carried Israeli flags and sang “One Day,” a song of peace by reggae singer and rapper Matisayhu — only to be promptly attacked by hate speech and threatened with calls to violence, witnesses told The Post.

“People were yelling at Hamas to strike Tel Aviv,” a sophomore at Barnard, a college at Columbia, told The Post, recalling how the previous night, a keffiyeh-clad student penetrated the Jewish students’ rally with a sign reading “Al Kassam’s [Hamas’s military wing’s] next target.”

The student’s sign, which was captured on video posted to X, included an arrow pointing at the Jewish students peacefully protesting.

What to know about the antisemitism controversy at Columbia University:

Columbia University president Minouche Shafik was accused of “gross negligence” while testifying before the House Education and Workforce Committee about antisemitic incidents at the school and pro-Palestinian indoctrination. Shafik defended the school’s response after Oct. 7, but refused to tell lawmakers at the hearing if the phrase “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” is antisemitic.

A report from the Ivy League school’s Task Force on Antisemitism found “repeated violations by student groups” at Columbia after the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks in Israel.

Ahead of the hearing, Jewish students told The Post that they have been targeted and witnessed antisemitism at the Morningside Heights campus. The Columbia University Jewish Alumni Association told The Post that the college’s administrators must “do their job” in reining in unauthorized student protests.

Shortly after the Oct. 7 attacks, more than 100 Columbia professors signed a letter defending students who support the “military action” by Hamas.

In February, an antisemitic poster depicting Israel as a skunk appeared on campus — which experts liken to a propaganda poster used by the Nazis in World War II.

An unsanctioned “Resistance 101” event was held on campus in March by a Palestinian activist with alleged ties to a group labeled a terror organization by the US. Four students who participated were later suspended by Columbia.

While the congressional hearing was in progress, Columbia students erected 60 tents on campus to demand that the university divest from Israel. One of the leaders of the protests, Ilhan Omar’s daughter, Isra Hirsi, was suspended from Barnard College — a women’s college affiliated with Columbia.

Shocking video footage captured a protester near the university declare, “We’re all Hamas” and “Long live Hamas” Wednesday. Another protester was arrested Wednesday night for repeatedly hitting and scratching an NYPD cop, according to law enforcement officials.

On Thursday, more than 100 other protesters were arrested after Shafik announced the campus’s closure.

“That’s a call to violence. It’s totally out of control. It’s total anarchy,” the student said, adding that Jewish students’ right to “peacefully protest” had been taken away.

The mother of another Barnard sophomore bashed the university for losing control.

“Columbia is out of control. This is untenable. People breaking into campus, kids calling public safety that refused to intervene. … Signs up saying ‘Hamas should kill you next’ and pointing to Jewish kids with Israeli flags who were singing,” the mom said.

Her daughter agreed that the protests have spiraled out of control.

“We all want to be here and get a good education, and it’s not fair that this is impeding on that,” she said.

“I don’t think it’s safe to be on campus,” the student said. “We’re not going to go anywhere — we’re not running away — but you can’t be a student there now. They’re protesting all day and all night. I hear it at night when I’m trying to sleep.

“You can barely sleep, barely get to class. It’s definitely getting in the way of being a student,” she added.

While some students seemed to be heeding Rabbi Buechler’s advice, others were determined to stay on campus, with one Jewish student saying he plans to remain even after being “chased up the block” a few days ago by a pro-Palestine mob.

“It’s honestly horrifying now. To walk around Columbia’s campus right now is to walk through a completely hostile environment,” the senior, Avi Weinberg, 25, told The Post on Sunday.

Weinberg slammed Columbia’s administration for losing its “backbone” and failing to do more to protect students.

He added that he doesn’t plan to follow the rabbi’s advice or take classes over Zoom just because “a group of lunatics decided to take over campus.

“We cannot go back to living in a world … where Jewish students can’t go to school,” Weinberg said.

“Walking through campus right now as a Jewish student – Zionist or not – if you’re not in agreement with their ideology, you’re not safe,” he said of the anti-Israel protesters. “You can’t walk on a lawn on a campus that’s open to all students. You cannot walk on that lawn – an entire team of students co-opted this lawn and [interrogate you].”

House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who grilled Columbia’s president this week in a congressional hearing on the university’s response to antisemitism, agreed Sunday that things “clearly lost control” on campus.

“Over the past few months and especially in the last 24 hours, Columbia’s leadership has clearly close control of its campus putting Jewish students’ safety at risk. It is crystal clear that Columbia University — previously a beacon of academic excellence founded by Alexander Hamilton — needs new leadership,” she said in a statement.

“President [Minouche] Shafik must immediately resign. And the Columbia Board must appoint a President who will protect Jewish students and enforce school policies.”

On Sunday, Columbia’s and Barnard’s chapters of the Jewish community organization Hillel sent out a message ensuring they will remain open and available for students who may need a quiet place to study or be with friends.

“Columbia University and the City of New York must do more to protect students. We call on the University Administration to act immediately in restoring calm to campus,” wrote Brian Cohen, the executive director of the Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life. “The City must ensure that students can walk up and down Broadway and Amsterdam without fear of harassment.”

NY Home Depot hires guards, dogs to keep parking lot safe from thieves, aggressive migrants

By Social Links for Georgia Worrell and Social Links for Tina Moore

Published April 21, 2024, 6:00 a.m. ET

A New York Home Depot has deployed a guard dog — and other stores may be close behind — to protect shoppers from aggressive migrants and thieves flooding their parking lots, The Post has learned.

Two men wearing MSA Security caps and bulletproof vests with a German Shepherd in tow patrolled the Home Depot in New Rochelle on Tuesday.

“It’s more about omnipresence,” one guard said, explaining that the company was contracted a few weeks ago. “It’s not like we let them go bite anyone or anything.”

The guard said the store hired them for a number of reasons.

“It’s not just because of [migrants], but because of a myriad of other things too, like people breaking into cars, that kind of stuff,” he said.

The guarded New Rochelle lot was quiet and no migrants loitered there when The Post visited this week, however, seven miles away in Throggs Neck, The Bronx, at least 30 male migrants hovered at the doors of Home Depot.

Some were day laborers simply trying to “shape” for work with local contractors.

But many others aggressively confronted shoppers, trying to sell them phony Apple Airpods or soliciting tips for lifting items from shopping carts into cars — even when uninvited.

“You come out and you’re a woman by yourself, they literally leech onto your wagon, and you’re like ‘No, I don’t need any help,'” one worker said. “And when they’re following you to your car, it’s unnerving.”

She said a female supervisor saw one of the men washing his privates with a water bottle in the lot, and that several women have called customer service to complain that migrants robbed them of purses or phones.

She’s seen the number of grifters in the lot swell as the migrant population in New York City explodes.

“I came to work one day and there had to be 100 guys out here,” she said. “And I’m like, ‘Oh, my God!'”

A regular customer at the store, who asked to be identified only as Cheryl, said she and her husband had a frightening encounter last month.

A man “practically runs over and he goes to point like, ‘Can I take the stuff,’ and my husband said ‘No, thank you,'” she recalled, noting that they only had a couple of boxes and a paint scraper.

“He’s still keeps following, like on top of us,” she said. “I said ‘No, thank you.'”

When her husband turned around to open the car door, the man “put his hand” on one of the boxes in their cart. .My husband said ‘Don’t touch anything.'”

But the man didn’t stop.

“So I held up my pepper spray and I yelled ‘He said don’t touch,'” she recalled.

“And all of a sudden he goes ‘Oh, you don’t have to yell at me.’ . . . but he started looking like he was getting angry. So we just hurried up and jumped in the car.”

She called Home Depot’s Atlanta headquarters to complain but got “the brush off,” she said. A regional manager then told her they were working on bringing security dogs to two Bronx stores.

Customers frequently complain about the crush of migrants, said LaurieAnn Masciocco, who works in the store’s customer service department.

“It’s come to the point where they’re invading personal space, touching people’s belongings, just harassing,” she said. “I get it, you’re trying to make a buck. But when it becomes aggressive and harassing there’s a major issue.”

Her husband went four miles away to the Pelham Gardens location in The Bronx earlier this month and he got mobbed there too, she said.

One 52-year-old Mexican national, Jimeno, who has lived in The Bronx since arriving in the United States 20 years ago, was at the Throggs Neck store seeking legitimate work from contractors.

“There are a lot of people who have been coming here for a lot of years . . . asking people for jobs in construction and if they need help with projects,” he told The Post in Spanish. “We come here to find work.”

He said the recent arrivals who aggressively solicit for tips have made it harder for the day laborers to find work.

“This affects us a lot, because now people don’t want to communicate with us because they’re scared,” he said. “They confuse us with them.”

One migrant at the Throggs Neck location, who said he was from Senegal, told The Post he makes about $300 a day, charging $10 every time he helps a customer push their cart or move their purchases into their vehicle.

Home Depot corporate spokeswoman Margaret Smith said the company prohibits loitering and solicitation at its stores and regularly works with law enforcement. She would not say if the Bronx stores will add security, including dogs.

“While we can’t go into specifics about our security measures,” she said, “it’s not unusual for us to use third-party security at various stores across the country.”

Global Cataclysms

By Hal Lindsey

The nations of planet earth are presently engaged in a deadly game of brinksmanship. It’s happening on every continent.

In Europe, Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine threatens to engulf the region. And European wars have a tendency to become world wars. Finland and Sweden, two previously neutral countries, recently joined NATO. Sweden had been neutral since the early 1800s. It resisted taking sides in World Wars I and II, as well as the Cold War. But not anymore. Sweden finally joined NATO this year, while its neighbor Finland joined in 2023.

What happened to Finland and Sweden’s traditional stance of neutrality? Putin happened. The communist leaders of Soviet Russia were not enough to get them into NATO, but Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine scared everyone in Europe. It awakened memories of Adolf Hitler, of global war, and of holocaust.

Nations across the globe feel vulnerable and are looking for safety. They are arming as never before. China’s new high-tech weapons, its unprecedented military buildup, and its aggressions in the South China Sea and Taiwan have also scared the nations. Reuters reported a year and a half ago that between then and 2027, “Japan will undertake its biggest arms buildup since World War Two in a race to deter Beijing from war in East Asia.”

Direct acts of violence resulting from the Israel-Hamas war have already touched nations everywhere. With Iran’s lock grip on the Shiite Muslim world, it has stirred up nation after nation into acts of war against Israel and anyone seen as Israel’s allies. The Middle East has been a powder keg for a long time, but now it is a powder keg in a lightning storm.

These and a host of other things going on today make a perfect setup for events that the Bible says will take place during seven years of tribulation. I believe those years are very close. But they are not imminent. The global conflagrations described in Revelation will not take place until after the Rapture — that is until after God has evacuated His people from the planet.

Some ask what is holding things up. Why doesn’t God just get on with it? 2 Peter 3:9 answers. “The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.”

God’s “slowness” is a result of His mercy. But He will not delay forever. In the Old Testament, Israel came under God’s judgement many times. Over and over, they failed to live up to the bargain they made with God. They sinned. The rejected Him, His messengers, and His word. But the thing that often triggered His actual judgements was harm to children. For instance, when they engaged in child sacrifice to idols.

Children are being abused on an institutional level today, and it’s happening all over the world. Millions are being slain in the womb. If they survive those early days, psychological tricks are played on them in their classrooms and in their entertainments — tricks designed to inoculate them against receiving the Gospel and tricks made to confuse them and make them miserable. Could these things trigger the time of judgement on the earth? Yes.

In the meantime, every day is an act of God’s mercy and kindness, giving people time and space to come to Him, and allowing those of us who know Him to preach the Gospel to the whole world. Jesus said in John 9:4 (NASB), “We must work the works of Him who sent Me, as long as it is day; night is coming, when no man can work.”

India delivers first BrahMos cruise missiles to Philippines

News Maritime Security

By Dylan Malyasov Apr 20, 2024

India delivered the first batch of BrahMos cruise missiles to the Philippines on April 19.

This delivery comes two years after the signing of a $375 million deal between the two nations.

The export of ground launcher systems for the BrahMos supersonic cruise missile system, along with the missiles themselves, commenced last month. This historic event marks the first time India has exported the BrahMos missile to a foreign country.

Amidst escalating tensions in the South China Sea, the delivery of BrahMos missile systems to the Philippines holds strategic significance. The Philippines intends to deploy the three batteries of the BrahMos missile system in their coastal areas to enhance their defense capabilities and counter potential Chinese threats in the region.

Developed as a joint venture between the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India and Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyeniya, the BrahMos missile is renowned for its advanced capabilities. It operates on a two-stage propulsion system, comprising a solid propellant booster engine for initial acceleration and a liquid ramjet engine for sustained supersonic cruise.

One of the key features of the BrahMos missile is its low radar signature, providing it with stealth capabilities. With a cruising altitude of up to 15 kilometers and the ability to descend to as low as 10 meters during the terminal phase, the BrahMos is highly versatile and effective in engaging targets with precision.

U.K.’s Only Munitions Factory Explodes, Just Days After U.S. Army Ammunition Factory Catches Fires in Scranton, PA

by Anthony Scott Apr. 20, 2024 5:20 pm

The United Kingdom’s lone munitions filing factory exploded on Wednesday, just two days after a fire erupted at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported on April 15th, the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant (SCAAP), the United States’ primary producer of 155mm artillery shell bodies, caught fire.

Just two days later, on April 17th, a section of the United Kingdom’s lone munition factory exploded after a single shell went off inside the factory.

The explosion occurred at the BAE Systems munitions factory in Glascoed, Wales.

BAE Systems is the biggest defense contractor in Europe and the 7th largest in the world.

The cause of the explosion at the munition factory is currently being investigated.

Per The Daily Mail:

Locals living close to a BAE Systems weapons plant rocked by an explosion earlier today say the blast ‘felt like an earthquake’ as a shell went off.

The blast took place at the BAE Systems munitions factory in Glascoed, Monmouthshire shortly before 10.50am.

MailOnline understands the explosion relates to a single shell going off at the munitions filling factory, run by BAE, Europe’s biggest military contractor.

Emergency services were deployed to the site, which is spread across a large field close to the south-eastern village; locals say the blast ‘wasn’t loud, but felt like an earthquake’.

BAE Systems has promised a full investigation into the incident at the factory, which is the UK’s last remaining munitions filling factory.

The fire erupted at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant is also under investigation.

NATO Officers and Soldiers Began To FLEE From The Western Armies En MASSE┃Russians Captured KRASNOYE

*****************************************************

Meanwhile, very serious problems began to be observed in the North Atlantic alliance, as a result of which the NATO leadership flew into an uncontrollable panic. Against this background, the European Union is seriously thinking in decreeing universal compulsory military service. In order to somehow remedy the situation with the shortage of manpower in the regular army, the Danish government even proposed to recruit women to somehow compensate for the shortage of soldiers and officers in the ranks of the armed forces..................

Defense Sector Panicking: Iran Missiles Defeated "Most Advanced, Integrated, ABM Defensive Systems"

Hal Turner World 16 April 2024 Hits: 35121

By now, most of the world knows that Iran launched a multi-faceted attack against Israel about 48 hours ago. The "fallout" from that attack is now becoming frighteningly clear, and it has Defense Experts TERRIFIED.

As the attack was in-progress, Iran undertook a very unusual, and apparently foolish, series of steps. They announced they had launched drones and then cruise missiles against Israel. They announced this despite the fact the drones and missiles still had 57 more minutes to travel before reaching their targets!

Expert Observers thought it very strange - and foolish - that an attacker would give out such information while the very weapons they launched had not yet arrived. It gave Israel and its allies time to go after those weapons, which they did.

Well . . . it turns out this was not strange or foolish - it was planned. Iran launched the old dregs of their arsenal! First generation drones. First generation cruise missiles. What they launched was the junk they had laying around for years! Slow moving, loud, junk. Iran WANTED Israeli defenses to focus on that old junk, and not on what they would fire next: Ballistic Missiles.

Many of the drones simply fell out of the sky from malfunctions. Others were easily intercepted by fighter jets from Israel, the US, and the UK, with some help from French naval assets in the Mediterranean Sea.

There was a much-heralded "99% interception success rate" broadcast around the world for all to hear. Turns out, there's a problem. A MAJOR problem: Iran's Ballistic Missiles. A few of them, got through.

Almost no one noticed this "problem" because there has been no media coverage of it, until this article.

The hint there was a BIG problem, came today. US Media reported:

"U.S. National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan stated today that the Department of Defense alongside U.S. Central Command is continuing to Increase the Readiness and Integration of Air Defenses and Early Warning Systems in the Middle East, in order to Erode the Effectiveness of Iran’s Missile and Drone Capabilities."

When I read that, I thought to myself "Who asked you?" Why say something like that? Unless . . . . unless. . . . there's a big problem. So I started looking, and asking questions. Here's what I found:

The missiles that hit the two bases in the Negev region didn't just "get through." They did so against the most-heavily-defended area in the world, protected with the most advanced, integrated, Anti-Ballistic-Missile (ABM) systems known to exist in the West.

Two Israeli Bases in the Negev region and one Intelligence Base in the far north of Israel on Mount Hermon, got hit by Iranian missiles.

In the north, the secret intelligence base in the north of the occupied Golan Heights located in Jabal al-Sheikh (Mount Hermon), got hit and seriously damaged.

In the south, the Israeli Nevatim and Ramon Bases got hit and THIS is where the problem reared its ugly head.

According to secret intelligence information, at the Nevatim Air Base in the Negev Desert, Hangar to Israel's F-35 Stealth aircraft and Mossad Spy aircraft, at least Forty-four (44) Mossad personnel were killed.

But for the Defense sector, that pales in comparison to what took place for Iran to achieve that.

Nevatim was defended by the world’s most advanced integrated anti-missile defense shield which incorporated Arrow 2, David’s Sling, THAAD, and Patriot 3 with the AN/TPY-2 X-band surveillance and targeting radar. This system was designed to exclusively defend against the Iranian medium-range ballistic missile threat.

Below is an actual photo of the actual radar deployed to protect those bases. Here is what it looks like:

Advanced US Radar Negev Desert Israel

And yet . . . 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.

The Iranians know this now. They __know__ Israeli "missile defenses" cannot stop their medium range ballistic missiles with any great reliability.

While Jordan fired US PATRIOT missiles to down a few Iranian missiles, Jordan's PATRIOTS are now completely depleted. They have NONE left.

Fighter jets did down a few additional Iranian missiles, but not many.

As such, Israel is not only vulnerable, there is no "filler" technology that can be quickly inserted into the advanced, integrated system, to make things better for Israel. Put simply, right now, Israel is factually defenseless from any large salvos of these missiles.

Think about that for a moment.

The most advanced, integrated air defense radar system in the world, its mission is to detect Iranian missile launches, and pass targeting data to Israeli Arrow, David’s Sling, and U.S. THAAD ABM batteries deployed to protect sensitive Israeli sites, including Dimona and the Nevatim and Ramon air bases.

Iranian missiles struck both Nevatim and Ramon air bases.

The best surveillance radar in the world, working in concert with the most sophisticated anti-missile defenses in the world, were impotent in the face of the Iranian attack.

What has galled Israel is not the attack itself, it was that the most advanced missile defense systems in the world couldn't stop the very missiles they were built to stop!

Iran has now achieved a "strategic deterrence" of Israel. Israel now knows Iran will hit them, but can also hit them at-will with missiles Israel cannot stop.

Even worse, now that the "junk" is gone from Iran's inventory, they can bring out the Second and third generation versions of their drones and missiles. Hezbollah did that TODAY. Hezbollah utilized almost silent, very-much-faster, jet powered drones to hit Israel in the north today.

People on the ground did not hear the drones until they were dive bombing the targets!

If Iran starts using these, the speed alone will cut down flight time, by half or more, making it even harder to intercept such drones if launched.

What the second or third generation cruise missiles might be able to do, none of us know yet.

We've now seen what Iran's Ballistic Missiles can do - nasty!

The Iran response to the Israel attack upon the Iranian Embassy in Syria, has opened a chasm in the Middle East balance of power. The world changed that day. Not in ways the general public knew - until now.

Republican Speaker of the House Flushes US Constitution Down the Toilet

April 18, 2024

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

As I predicted on April 11, the police state got the Republicans to reconsider and to pass their warrantless spying and home entry. The Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson cast the deciding vote that nixed the warrant requirement.

This tells us all we need to know about Republicans. They are part of the problem.

Super-Patriots will say “we have to do this to protect ourselves from terrorists.” They don’t understand that without the Constitution we have no protection.

Edward Snowden reports that the situation is even more serious than I thought. A section of the FISA Act is being enlarged to require every company and person that provides any internet-related service to assist NSA surveillance.

NSA “Just Days Away From Taking Over The Internet” Warns Ed Snowden

“This bill represents one of the most dramatic and terrifying expansions of government surveillance authority in history.”

Indonesia tsunami alert after 'Ring of Fire' volcano erupts several times - with 11,000 evacuated

Indonesian authorities issued a tsunami alert Wednesday after eruptions at Ruang Mountain sent ash thousands of feet high. Officials ordered more than 11,000 people to leave the area.

Indonesian authorities have sounded the tsunami alarm after a series of major eruptions at Ruang mountain, with ash clouds reaching thousands of feet into the sky. Over 11,000 locals have been instructed to evacuate the danger zone.

The volcano, situated on Sulawesi island's northern flank, has experienced no less than five significant eruptions within the last day, as reported by Indonesia's Center for Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation. The alert level for the volcano has been escalated to the maximum.

By Wednesday morning, at least 800 people had already vacated the vicinity.

Home to 270 million individuals, Indonesia's vast archipelago boasts 120 active volcanoes, largely due to its position on the "Ring of Fire," a Pacific Ocean region known for frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Officials are advising both tourists and residents to maintain a distance of at least 6 kilometers (about 3.7 miles) from the 725-meter-tall (2,378-foot) Ruang volcano.

There is growing concern among authorities that a segment of the volcano might tumble into the ocean, potentially triggering a tsunami similar to the catastrophic event following the 1871 eruption.

According to Indonesia's National Disaster Mitigation Agency, evacuees will be relocated to Manado, the closest city on Sulawesi island, which is six hours away by boat.

Back in 2018, the eruption of Indonesia's Anak Krakatau volcano triggered a tsunami along the coasts of Sumatra and Java when parts of the mountain collapsed into the ocean, resulting in the tragic loss of 430 lives.

As Americans Struggle Just To Survive, Illegals Invaders Being Handed The Keys To The Kingdom - Free Food, Medical, Apartments, Prepaid Debit Cards, And Stealing Homes AKA Squatting

By Susan Duclos - All News Pipeline April 17, 2024

It is bad enough that Joe Biden openly encouraged a full-scale invasion of America by literally telling telling foreigners to "surge to the border," when he was just a candidate for president, but once his regime took control they facilitated said "surge."

“I would in fact make sure that there is, that we immediately surge to the border — all those people are seeking asylum. They deserve to be heard,” Biden said. “That’s who we are. We’re a nation that says, ‘If you want to flee and you’re fleeing oppression, you should come.'”

For those that doubt Biden said that, we have video.

Millions of illegals have been released into the U.S. since Biden began occupying the White House, and we have written about the increase of Chinese military-aged men, along with a significant number of people on the terrorist watchlist being caught, leaving us to wonder how many of those terrorists came through without being detained.

So, with those reminders out of the way, and with more illegals being allowed to cross every single day, we see more evidence that illegal aliens, people who committed a crime as their first act in the U.S., simply by crossing the border anywhere but at the legal points of entries, are being handed the keys to the kingdom, while American citizens are struggling just to survive.

Starting with the most recent slap in the face to American citizens, we see that Democrat-controlled Denver, Colorado, just cut $8 million from the police departmentas part of another $45 million to help deal with the "skyrocketing" illegal alien problem.

A Democrat-controlled city announced $45 million in funding for programs to help deal with the skyrocketing number of migrant arrivals it is facing, resulting in over $8 million in budget cuts for the police department.

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced last week a package of $45.9 million to fully fund programs for "newcomers" for 2024 and avoid worst-case scenarios projected by the city. That’s in addition to $44 million in spending already secured for the program through previous budget moves.

The latest official records about crime in Denver are for 2022, which shows the crime rate at 2.8 times greater than the U.S. average. It was higher than in 98.8% U.S. cities. The 2022 Denver crime rate rose by 11% compared to 2021.(Source)

Since the Biden regime's open border policies, illegal aliens in Denver has increased, and with that increase, crime has increased.

With a complete lack of logic and common sense, an increase of both crime and illegals, somehow justifies an $8 million budget cut from the very people out there fighting said crime.

In what alternative universe does that make sense?

In the meantime, Denver is clearing out another homeless encampment, without providing any shelter for them, as Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston had promised.

Why? I am so glad you asked.

What they're saying: "This is not what we want to be doing," Cole Chandler, the mayor's senior adviser for homelessness, tells us. But he says the city didn't have enough vacant rooms at its eight sheltering sites to accommodate the more than 130 people living in the encampment.

The reason there is no room at the shelters, is because they are full of illegal immigrants!!!

According to the Associated Press "Denver’s new program will place asylum seekers in apartments for up to six months, provide job and skill training, opportunities to get certifications and unpaid work experience, food assistance and help with asylum applications."

Moving along....

ILLEGALS STEALING HOMES AKA SQUATTING......

Many were horrified in mid-March after seeing images of a woman, a homeowner, put into handcuffs by police, for attempting to remove "squatters." Squatters are people that "squat" in other peoples' homes.

Fed-up homeowner arrested after tense standoff with squatters ‘stealing’ $1M house she inherited from parents

A New York City property owner recently ended up in handcuffs following a fiery standoff with alleged squatters who she has been trying to boot from her family’s home, tense footage shows.

Adele Andaloro, 47, was nabbed after changing the locks last month on the $1 million home in Flushing, Queens, that she says she inherited from her parents when they died, ABC’s Eyewitness News reported.

In New York City, a person can claim “squatter’s rights” after just 30 days of living at a property.

Now, if someone is illegally in your home, and illegal aliens are doing this with increased frequency, one should be able to shoot them on sight. One should be able to protect their homes, right?

According to a recent Newsweek article, homeowners are the ones being warned to not take "lethal" action, because the homeowner, not the illegal that is illegally trespassing, with be charged. and if lethal force is used, the homeowner can be charged with murder.

Of course that depends on whether it is a state run by Democrats or one run by Republicans, as Texas Governor Greg Abbott says "The Texas Castle Doctrine empowers Texans to use force to defend themselves & their property."

Just one more reason why conservatives, who believe in property rights, should be living in states run by Republicans that also believe in property rights.

Leave Democrats that vote for politicians that allow the theft of ones home, to the states that favors squatters over American homeowners.

AMERICANS STRUGGLE, ILLEGALS HANDED KEYS TO THE KINGDOM....

In New York, aside from the benefits illegals get from the federal government, state officials have started handing out prepaid debit cards to illegal aliens.

We at ANP have reported extensively on how the price of food, and other items, is causing Americans to struggle to eat and pay their bills, yet illegals just have to cross the border, and make their way to a state that offers them freebies, and they are eating and surviving with less of a struggle than Americans born and bred in the good ole U.S of A.

This is a $150 billion a year problem, and that is a conservative estimate.

The FAIR study, released in March last year, documented the financial toll of illegal immigration on the U.S., taking into account factors like emergency medical care, incarcerating illegal aliens in local jails, and federal budgets that pay out billions in welfare every year, pegging the net annual cost at $150.7 billion.

More:

To contextualize the number, the $150.7 billion spent on illegal immigration last year is more than the total gross domestic product (GDP) of Mississippi ($146.7 billion in 2023), New Mexico ($131.5 billion), Idaho ($119.8 billion), and is more than the GDP's Wyoming and Vermont combined, at $50.74 billion and $43.38 billion, respectively.

Just imagine how much easier it would be on American citizens, if they could keep that $150 billion in their own pockets.

Powerful 6.3-magnitude earthquake strikes off Japan four months after devastating tremors left at least 245 dead

A 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck off southwestern Japan late on Wednesday

The country is still reeling from a devastating 7.6-magnitude quake on January 1

By James Reynolds

Published: 11:49 EDT, 17 April 2024 | Updated: 14:48 EDT, 17 April 2024

A 6.3-magnitude earthquake struck off southwestern Japan late Wednesday the US Geological Survey has said, without detailing the extent of damage.

The epicentre was pinpointed to a channel between the islands of Kyushu and Shikoku, about 11 miles west of Uwajima, at a depth of about 25 kilometres.

Some water pipes burst, but no major damage has been reported, local media said.

'In areas the jolt was strong, please don't approach any dangerous areas. There is no risk of tsunami caused by this earthquake,' the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) assured on social media platform X.

The powerful quake came four months after Japan was rocked by a devastating 7.6 magnitude event on New Year's Day, followed by as many as 1,200 aftershocks and linked to 245 deaths.

Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority said the Ikata nuclear power plant in the area was operating as normal in the wake of the April 17 quake.

'No abnormalities have been detected at the Ikata power plant... and the operation is continuing,' it said.

Government spokesman Yoshimasa Hayashi confirmed that there were no tsunami warnings or abnormalities at any power plants and that authorities were investigating what other damage may have occurred.

'We will do everything we can to respond,' Hayashi said.

He urged the public to be vigilant for aftershocks.

'I was about to go to bed when I felt the rumbling and knew a quake was coming. Then I felt the kind of jolt that I've never experienced in my life, and it kept shaking for 10 or 20 seconds,' a fisherman from the Ehime region told broadcaster NHK.

'I was a bit panicky,' he said, adding that some small objects fell over in his house, although there was no major damage.

Sitting on top of four major tectonic plates along the western edge of the Pacific 'Ring of Fire', Japan is one of the world's most tectonically active countries.

The archipelago, home to around 125 million people, experiences around 1,500 jolts every year.

The vast majority are mild, and even larger quakes usually cause little damage.

Japan's biggest quake on record was a massive 9.0-magnitude undersea jolt in March 2011 off its northeast coast, which triggered a tsunami that left around 18,500 people dead or missing.

The 2011 catastrophe also sent three reactors into meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear plant, causing Japan's worst post-war disaster and the most serious nuclear accident since Chernobyl.

Despite stricter building guidelines, many structures, particularly outside major cities, are old and vulnerable.

This was brought home in the 7.5-magnitude quake on January 1 this year that hit Noto Peninsula and killed more than 230 people, many of them when older buildings collapsed.

On April 3, a 7.4-magnitude struck Taiwan, killing 16 people and leaving more than 1,100 people injured, with strict building codes and widespread disaster readiness credited with averting a bigger catastrophe.

New NASA Mars Crew Has a Muslim, No White People

“To reach out to the Muslim world… to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering.”

April 17, 2024 by Daniel Greenfield 75 Comments

There’s the Right Stuff (pictured above) and the Woke Stuff. NASA no longer has the right stuff, so all it’s got is the DEI stuff.

Remember this?

In July 2010, NASA chief Charles Bolden, an Obama appointee, told Al Jazeera that his boss had given him three priorities… none of them involving space exploration. The foremost priority for the agency once tasked with sending a man to the moon was “to reach out to the Muslim world… to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering.”

How many of you remember Obama’s “Muslim List”?

The Muslim list included two alternative candidates for NASA administrator. One of them, Dr. Charles Elachi of JPL was dismissed as “possibly Christian.” Indeed Elachi, who grew up admiring John Wayne and believes that American success is possible because it isn’t “held back by the long-standing, ingrained systems and beliefs found in the Middle East” would have been a rather poor fit.

The other name on the list however is Firouz Naderi, an Iranian board member of the Public Affairs Alliance of Iranian Americans which advocated in support of the Iran nuke sellout.

While Trump threw out some of this stuff, under Biden NASA is fully woke and going where no one has gone before or ever wanted to go before.

Victor Glover, the black mission pilot, who had been working on Senator John McCain’s staff when he was selected as a NASA astronaut candidate, is preparing for his mission by listening to Gil Scott-Heron’s racist rant ‘Whitey on the Moon’ “twice a week on the way to work.”

NASA has a team that will update everything for the lunatic’s “current genders, names and pronouns” (which may or may not change on a biweekly basis) and then deploy a “workplace gender transition plan” that is only a little less complicated than the original moon landings.

“When I first came out, I did not come out as nonbinary at work. I wasn’t sure that people would accept that, so I came out as transmasculine and am only recently being completely authentic about it, like, ‘Actually, I’m nonbinary, and my pronouns are they/them,’” Mars “research scientist” Silas J. Ralston explains in a special NASA feature.

Now the four-person crew for the “virtual” mission to Mars has been unveiled and they carefully screened out the white people.

There is a Muslim crewmember though.

NASA has selected a new crew of four volunteers to participate in a simulated mission to Mars within a habitat at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Jason Lee, Stephanie Navarro, Shareef Al Romaithi, and Piyumi Wijesekara will step into the agency’s Human Exploration Research Analog, or HERA, on Friday, May 10. Once inside, the team will live and work like astronauts for 45 days.

Or woke cosmonauts anyway. During this time they’ll accuse each other of hate speech and microaggression.

But who actually needs to go to Mars when we can explore new dimensions of diversity right here?

Just How Seriously is the Fed Losing the Fight against Inflation's Inferno?

It's a LOT hotter than the media told you in their cover stories!

David Haggith  Apr 17, 2024  ∙ Paid

On Saturday, Zero Hedge published an article by Jeffrey Tucker that laid out just how far off the media has been in all of its soothing spin that attempts to cool your perception of inflation:

For months and even years, the mainstream news has sought to spin terrible inflation news. It’s not so bad, it’s just transitional, it’s getting better, it’s not really a problem, and all your gloom about the value of the dollar is in your head. Truly, in the past fortnight, we have been inundated with articles suggesting that the public is dumb as rocks for thinking that inflation is still a problem.

And then all of a sudden months of denial left them in a place where, BOOM! it was bad overnight. Still, some have tried their best to splash a little quenching water on these flames, but it’s not working anymore. Others threw in the towel on the subterfuge and finally called the heat as it is:

It was so bad that not even the two most influential venues could deny it. The New York Times reported, “Inflation Stronger Than Expected.” The Wall Street Journal reported, “Hot Inflation Report Weakens Case for Fed’s June Rate Cut.” The accompanying editorial is even better: “The Inflation Thief Rises Again.”

Now that some venues, trusted beyond their merits, have stopped parroting the Fed’s new “it’s just a bump in the road” transitory inflation narrative, even the Fed has had to start admitting—in what appears to be getting close to unanimous consent—that it is losing the inflation fight so far this year. Today Papa Powell finally said the fight is not going well, allowing that there has been “a lack of further progress” this year, and he even confirmed this pushes rate cuts further off:

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Tuesday that the U.S. economy … has not seen inflation come back to the central bank’s goal, pointing to the further unlikelihood that interest rate cuts are in the offing anytime soon….

Powell said that while inflation continues to make its way lower, it hasn’t moved quickly enough, and the current state of policy should remain intact.

“More recent data shows solid growth and continued strength in the labor market, but also a lack of further progress so far this year on returning to our 2% inflation goal,” the Fed chief said during a panel talk.

Echoing recent statements by central bank officials, Powell indicated the current level of policy likely will stay in place until inflation gets closer to target….

“The recent data have clearly not given us greater confidence, and instead indicate that it’s likely to take longer than expected to achieve that confidence,” he said….

Powell added that until inflation shows more progress, “We can maintain the current level of restriction for as long as needed….”

Treasury yields rose as Powell spoke. The benchmark 2-year note, which is especially sensitive to Fed rate moves, briefly topped 5%, while the benchmark 10-year yield rose 3 basis points. The S&P 500 wavered after Powell’s remarks, briefly turning negative on the day before recovering.

Some of the other central-bank officials who made similar statements today were …

Federal Reserve Vice Chair Philip Jefferson …

who suggested Tuesday that the central bank’s key rate may have to remain at its peak for a while to bring down persistently elevated inflation…. He said his outlook is that inflation will cool even with the Fed’s key rate “held steady at its current level….”

Jefferson’s remarks appeared to open the door to the prospect that the Fed will dial back its forecast, issued at its most recent policy meeting in March, that it would carry out three quarter-point cuts this year to its benchmark rate, which stands at about 5.3%….

In his speech Tuesday, Jefferson said the Fed estimates that its preferred inflation gauge, which will be reported next week, rose in March, to 2.7% from a year earlier, up from 2.5% in February. Such an increase would echo a rise in the more widely followed consumer price index, which rose to 3.5% in March, from 3.2%.

and …

The Fed’s Daly who noted today …

The economy growing at a solid rate, the labor market is still strong, and inflation is above target.. Worst thing to do is act urgently when urgency isn't necessary.

The spinners’ gotta spin

As, in don’t act to lower rates at all when you don’t need to. The credit rating service, Moody’s, even chimed in today to say that current data clouds the rate-cut picture that markets have in mind. They now see the June cut that the stock market has switched to betting on as unlikely.

U.S. inflation is expected to retreat eventually, but the recent upside surprise in U.S. inflation data could delay monetary policy easing, says Moody’s Investors Service….

The latest robust reading adds to the uncertainty surrounding the timing of U.S. rate cuts. The rating agency said there is unlikely to be be enough evidence of declining inflation before the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s mid-June meeting to enable it to begin reducing rates.

Let me say it more plainly for them: “The June rate cut is also now as good as long gone.”

Markets had previously targeted mid-year as the likely starting point for U.S. rate cuts.

That was, of course, after they had previously targeted March as their solid position for the starting point of US rate cuts. So, they don’t know much.

“Disinflationary progress has slowed since the start of the year, but it is too early to conclude that it has stalled or reversed,” Moody’s said.

Really? Not according to Papa Powell, who seems to have found several ways of saying it has stalled. (See the many elements from his comments in boldface above.) I don’t know how anyone, especially Moody’s, can say with a straight face that the Fed’s fight hasn’t stalled? Seriously? Look at the FACTS (even as presented by the Fed);

You don’t get much more stalled than that! Good grief, people are thick when it comes to admitting the more-than-obvious truth. And notice the stall goes right back to the first uptick in July where I notified my readers that inflation had just put in a turn that would last (when the media was NOWHERE near saying such a thing). From that date on, I tracked the stall throughout those months, pointing out “still stalling.” Even “rising.” To this day, some like Moody’s, even when they are writing about disinflation slowing down, cannot bring themselves to admit that it isn’t just slowing down. It’ has STOPPED! ZERO PROGRESS FOR NINE MONTHS!

Yet, the picture is actually far worse than a mere stall, as I’ll lay out below, due to how the numbers have been manipulated.

While Moody’s expressed irrational belief that inflation will eventually start to cool again this year, I don’t see it that way any more than I see ANY way of saying, based on the clear facts above (and below), that inflation hasn’t stalled. Oil is certainly rising, which will continue to contribute a lot to inflation’s rise directly and over time a lot more indirectly. Even if Israel doesn’t make a harsh reprisal to Iran’s first-ever direct attack from its own borders into Israel’s (far from a sure bet), Iran may very well respond to whatever Israel does do, as Iran has stated it will do in the news today much more quickly than it last response and using “weapons it has never used before,” which will press Israel to do a lot more. (See headlines below.)

It seems an obviously terrible bet to lay against those odds the claim that inflation will cool! I don’t think either Iran or Israel is going to cool off under the collar anytime soon. So, how is inflation going to cool with Middle East oil on fire and shipping routes closed by terrorists, driven, funded, and weaponized by super-heated Iran? If Iran doesn’t directly attack Israel again out of fear of a much harsher response from Israel and its allies, it will certainly find ways to attack more fiercely through its multiple proxy wars, such has hitting the Red Sea harder to hurt the West and pushing the Hezbollah and Syrian gangs to do more. There is almost zero chance at present of the Middle East cooling down. It’s only a question of how much hotter that hell gets.

Inflation much hotter than reported!

There are a few things I should note from the earlier inflation reports that I was going to highlight in my last Deeper Dive, which I’ll lay out now as they are way to important to let them slide by, even as a Middle-Eastern raging war has taken over the news:

One is that, as hot as inflation was in the last PPI report, it would have been worse if not for massive “seasonal adjustments.” The devil is in details, and I would question how much the details were seasonally adjusted to look a lot less bad than the raw numbers. The details were adjusted far more than they were in other March’s, so why was this March so unseasonably seasonable when compared to other reports from the same season (going off the five years before the pandemic as the days when things were normal)? How convenient for Biden that there was so much unstated justification for adjusting the degrees of inflation down so much more than in other Marches! It seems he’s getting a little extra mileage out of Covid. Maybe the economy has long Covid.

In fact, if you smooth things out over three months, the smoothened numbers look worse than the raw numbers:

Wolf Street

And, if you take out the seasonal adjustments, they look worse still:

Wolf Street

Second, the ALL of the three-month rates (to smooth out the “bumpiness” Powell originally used as his new “transitory” non-starter) jumped higher, meaning the smoothed January report and the smoothened February report and the smoothened March report, all jumped higher. So, you can’t even smoothen out those bumps when you try by spreading them across three month averages.

Core CPI, which the Fed prefers, also looked much worse, even with the adjustments:

There is no way to make that pig look good with a little more lipstick because the pig is roasting on a spit in hell! Even seasonal fashion lipstick can’t do the trick because it melts off faster than you can apply it. And both services and goods were way back up over the first three months of this year. UP, not just stalled! So, all elements of inflation are doing worse, and the Middle East heat assures a greater inferno to come. You can believe in Moody’s fact-free, fantasy cooling period if you want to; or you can believe in the obvious reality raging as an inferno all around us. Who has steered you right so far?

So, welcome to Fed hell, prepared in advance for us all!

(If you missed my article on the eclipse and the new war between Israel and Iran—more dangerous than any others in the Middle East in decades—and you’re interested in apocalyptic stuff, you can find it here: “The Apoceclipse: We Survived! ... or did we?”)

Still Poking the Bear: F-16's from Netherlands Arrive in Romania - for Ukraine pilots!

Hal Turner World 17 April 2024 Hits: 12669

Three Royal Netherlands Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcons landed at the Romanian 86th Air Base Lieutenant-Aviator Gheorghe Mociornita in Borce (Calarasi County).

The jets will be used to train, and then used by, Ukrainian pilots.

There are no air fields remaining inside Ukraine which can accommodate the F-16's. The runways are too bumpy from Russian attacks. There is almost no fuel supply, and no weapons storage remaining at most bases.

So if these F-16's are going to be used in combat by Ukraine, it __appears__ they will have to take-off from, then return to, bases in Romania, in order to be refueled, re-armed and maintained.

If that takes place . . . . if Ukrainian pilots takeoff from a foreign base, and attack Russian forces in Ukraine, then return to that foreign base for refueling, re-arming and maintenance, then Russia has made clear THAT FOREIGN BASE will become a legitimate military target.

Each and every day, the collective west moves closer and closer to direct confrontation with Russia.

They are doing this despite Russia having increased its military industrial production by fifteen times (15x) and by doing so, now out-produced the total, combined production of the West by seven times.

Moreover, not only is Russia's production 7 times that of the west, the stockpiles of weapons and ammunition in the West have been either seriously depleted or wiped-out altogether, by supplying Ukraine. So the West has almost nothing to fall back on as far as reserve ammunition.

Yet the West continues to escalate the Russia-Ukraine conflict - in complete denial they are heading down the road to direct war and thereby, their own annihilation.

Readers in Europe and in the United States are reminded that if direct warfare breaks out between Russia and NATO, countries in Europe, and sites within the continental United States can - and likely will - come under Russian missile attack.

Are you ready to see parts of your country blowing up? Because that may be where this is heading.

I urge readers in the US and in Europe to have emergency food, water, medicines, first-aid kit, flashlights for each member of your family or each room of your house, with spare batteries for those flashlights. Have communications gear like Citizen's Band (CD) or a HAM radio for local communications. If we get hit, it is almost guaranteed that communications systems, phone landlines, cellular, fax, the Internet and email will all go offline. You really should have a way to communicate with neighbors and to hear global news via shortwave. So get a portable AM/FM/Shortwave radio with spare batteries so you can get information.

Have a generator with spare fuel to keep your refrigerator running, and maybe power a light or two in the house. DO NOT OPERATE A GENERATOR INDOORS; their gas-powered engines give off carbon monoxide gas which will KILL YOU if it is inside your house. Generators must only be run outside.

Have extra fuel for the generator, because when the SHTF, those who did not prepare by getting supplies in advance, will find themselves standing on mile-long gas lines trying to get fuel. Then the gas stations will start running out, and you'll be left with nothing.

GET CASH MONEY. Have some cash money stashed in the house. If the SHTF, communications lines will likely go down and there won't be any way to authorize your credit or debit cards to buy anything. Cash will be king. If you don't have any when the SHTF, you won't have any hope of buying what you need to survive.

DON'T WAIT. Get supplies now. If you wait, you'll be "shit outta luck (SOL)."

There is still some small window of time for you to begin accumulating these emergency prep supplies. If you wait, until the bombs actually start hitting, you'll find yourself out of time and out of luck because every schmuck in the country who ALSO waited, will all be headed out to the stores for supplies. They will strip store shelves bare. Gas stations will run empty and you will find yourself with nothing. No food. No water. No medicine. No electricity, No communications, and no money.

Iran Hit Secret Israeli Intel Base at Golan Heights! Smashed by Missile Attack

Hal Turner World April 15, 2024 Hits: 7816

The Israeli government is furious over one of the targets struck by the Iran missile attack two nights ago. That attack utterly smashed a secret Israeli Intelligence Base - Pictured above, in the Golan Heights.

According to Israeli sources, the heaviest damage that was inflicted on the Israeli government during Iran's retaliatory attack is the secret intelligence base in the north of the occupied Golan Heights located in Jabal al-Sheikh (Mount Hermon).

The importance and sensitivity of this place is such that the Israeli army imposed a complete media ban for this area and everything is censored and no damage assessment and public announcement is allowed.

This intelligence base played a role in the recent Israeli attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus, and in general, in recent years, it has played a very important and prominent role in intelligence operations against Syria and Iran.

The base is now smashed.

Russia Hits FRENCH FOREIGN LEGION TROOPS in Ukraine

Hal Turner World April 15, 2024 Hits: 8294

On April 13, this website reported the arrival of French Foreign Legion troops into Slavyansk, Ukraine. Overnight, those troops were hit and mostly killed by the Russian Army.

The original story from April 13 appears HERE

The French military brought the CAESAR self-propelled gun to Slavyansk

According to the Military Chronicle, the brigade artillery group consists of 12 to 15 wheeled howitzers, as well as several Renault trucks with auxiliary equipment. According to preliminary information, the equipment was transferred for storage to the Starokramatorsky Machine-Building Plant from Dnepropetrovsk.

In Slavyansk itself, in the area of ​​clay quarries, as well as to the south (in the Cherevkovka area), firing positions have already been prepared for these guns: a road has been rolled out and ammunition supply routes have been equipped.

Most likely, we are talking about the potential use of the French CAESAR for barrage fire in the event of an attack by the Russian Armed Forces on Slavyansk, but we cannot exclude the use of this technology in the defense of Chasov Yar and its likely transfer to units of the 54th Mechanized Infantry Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (as well as the direct participation of the French within this division.)

When firing extended-range projectiles with a bottom gas generator from the Belenkoye area (between Kramatorsk and Slavyansk), the entire eastern part of Chasov Yar, including the western part of Bogdanovka and the entry point of Russian troops in the area of ​​vocational school No . 77 in the Kanal microdistrict, may be in the CAESAR destruction zone.

Those French troops and their CAESAR artillery were demolished overnight by the Russian Army.

Russia had previously warned NATO countries that if they sent troops into Ukraine, those troops would become legitimate targets. Now, Russia has made good on its word (again) and a slew of French Foreign Legion troops are now dead.

Syracuse police officer and a deputy killed in shooting in Salina

Updated: Apr. 15, 2024, 8:13 a.m.|Published: Apr. 14, 2024, 9:30 p.m.

By Jon Moss | jmoss@syracuse.comRylee Kirk | rkirk@syracuse.comMarnie Eisenstadt | meisenstadt@syracuse.comTim Knauss | tknauss@syracuse.comDarian Stevenson | DStevenson@syracuse.com

Syracuse, N.Y. — Two police officers were killed Sunday night in a shootout on a suburban street in Salina.

A Syracuse police officer and an Onondaga County sheriff’s deputy were both killed when they went to follow up on a traffic stop where the driver sped away, said Syracuse Police Chief Joe Cecile.

The officers were not identified.

The trouble started with a traffic stop at 7 p.m. in the city’s Tipp Hill neighborhood, Cecile said. That’s when Syracuse police tried to pull over a car, but the driver refused and sped off. Police took the plate number, which led them to a home on Darien Drive, a short street with tidy lawns and basketball hoops in the driveways.

There, police saw guns in the back of the car, Cecile said. And then, from inside the home, they heard the sound of a gun being readied to fire, he said.

Gunfire filled the little neighborhood as the officers and the suspect exchanged shots. The two officers and the suspect were all hit. The suspect also was killed, Cecile said. He did not identify the man.

“This is our worst nightmare come true,” said Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh. “Our thoughts right now are with the families of those two officers, those heroes.”

Police gave some details about the two officers who were killed. The Syracuse officer had three years on the force. He was ambitious and hard-working, Cecile said.

The deputy had been with the department for a considerable time. “He was just a great guy,” said Onondaga County Sheriff Toby Shelley.

Shelley said the house, at 4945 Darien Dr., had been secured and there is no threat to the neighborhood, but that police were still going through the scene just after midnight.

“It’s just a very sad day for law enforcement,” Shelley said.

He and the others spoke at midnight down the hill from the emergency room in front of the Wallie Howard Forensic Center. That’s where the officers’ bodies had been brought for autopsies.

Howard, the officer for whom the center is named, was the last officer shot and killed in the line of duty in Onondaga County. That was more than 30 years ago.

That streak was broken with what seemed to be such a routine call:

“We’re chasing cars every day,” Shelley said. “Every day ...”

One of the officers who responded to the scene reported seeing AR-style magazines in the back of a car, and sounds of “racking” coming from a house, according to 911 center dispatches.

An officer down call went out at 8:51 p.m.

After the shootings, police from multiple agencies swarmed the area on Darien Drive.

Shortly after 9 p.m. a vehicle was rushing a person to Upstate University Hospital, according to 911 center dispatches. Police were rushing to shut down an Interstate 81 ramp to clear the way for the vehicle.

One dispatch from the 911 center described the call as a mass casualty incident. That would indicate three or more victims. Multiple ambulances were dispatched to the area.

A sheriff’s deputy responded to a home at 4945 Darien Drive around 8:20 p.m. to assist Syracuse police, according to 911 center dispatches.

Witness: At least 20 shots fired

Mousa Alzokari, who lives directly across the street from the house where the shooting occurred, said he heard a flurry of shots at about 8:45 p.m. He called 911.

Not long after, two officers with long guns entered the back door of Alzokari’s house without knocking and went up to the second floor, where they took positions facing the shooting scene. They were still there as of 11:20 p.m., while Alzokari and five children waited on the ground floor.

Altogether, Alzokari estimated he heard at least 20 shots fired. The two officers in his house did not fire shots, he said.

At one point, Alzokari said, he saw an officer being carried to a sheriff’s vehicle and driven away. He also saw at least one person placed in handcuffs. But police continued to surround the house, leading Alzokari to believe a suspect remained inside.

Alzokari, who has lived on Darien Drive for about four years, said it’s normally a quiet street.

“The kids are scared and shaken now,” he said.

Brian Fagan, 49, heard a car ripping around the corner of Larkin Street and North Woodland Drive around 8:30 p.m. Sunday. The vehicle flew past his home with five deputy police cruisers following behind, he said.

Fagan heard tires screech as the vehicles came to a stop at the intersection of North Woodland Drive and Oakland Terrace. Then four to five gunshots went off, he said.

Ambulances, the Liverpool Fire Department and city, state and county officers rushed to the scene, Fagan said. Air 1, the sheriff’s helicopter, hovered overhead for two hours, he said.

It all happened within a matter of 20 minutes.

“I’m looking out my window now and there’s probably 30 to 40 state troopers and sheriff’s up my street,” he said.

Just after 9 p.m., the county 911 system alerted those in the neighborhood to shelter in place, according to Fagan. He doesn’t normally pick up his home phone, but with all the traffic and everything going on, he needed to answer it.

A silent procession

At about 10:45 p.m., a dozen police cars were parked on both sides of East Adams Street near Upstate hospital. There were about two dozen city police and sheriff’s deputies near the door to the emergency room.

By midnight, 100 men and women stood shoulder to shoulder from the emergency room door all the way down East Adams Street. Some were in uniform; others were wearing whatever they had on when they heard the news and rushed over.

No one spoke. The only sound was Air 1 flying overhead.

The line snapped wordlessly to attention as the officers’ bodies were loaded into the white vans that would carry them from the hospital to the crime lab.

A silent procession of police cars followed behind the vans. The streets around the hospital were blocked off. So many firetrucks and police cars came that all the side streets were full of flashing lights, too.

From far away, the hill glowed red and blue.

The Explosion Of Mental Illness In America: 'It Is No Measure Of Health To Be Well Adjusted To A Profoundly Sick Society' - Psychopaths Rule Over America And The Western World

- America & The West Have Become The Laughing Stock Of The World

By Stefan Stanford - Live Free Or Die - All News Pipeline April 14, 2024

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society" J. Krishnamurti

In this new story over at the Epoch Times they report that at least 20 REAL women have withdrawn from their soccer team over at the Syndey, Australia based league to allow men (pretending in their absolutely WARPED 'transgender' minds to be REAL women!) to compete against REAL women due to the very REAL potential of the REAL WOMEN, playing against men, getting hurt in those games.

Reporting that the 'team' calling itself the “biggest LGBTQIA+ women’s and non-binary football club in the world,” the Flying Bats FC, had made international headlines for using on their 'team' at least 5 self-identifying transgender players, with at least nine transgender players in the wider NorthWest Association, I still remember growing up in the 1960's and 1970's when the 'women's rights movement' was exploding in American streets, seeking 'equal rights and opportunities and greater personal freedom for women,' though if you look out into the world today, many aspects of that 'movement' have been crushed and destroyed by allowing REAL MEN to compete in pro sports against women.

With all of those 'trannies' allowing the Flying Bats to utterly dominate their four-week pre-season Beryl Ackroyd Cup, which followed an undefeated season in 2023 that produced score lines disproportionate to other teams’ results, that story is a perfect example of what we're witnessing right now in this March 26th of 2023 story by James Corbett over at The Corbett Report substack about America and the Western World's Dissent Into Madness and the world that they're driven to bring on to the rest of us, a world full of projections by psychopaths, especially with psychopaths that now largely rule over the Western world.

And while league officials in Australia are planning on officially punishing the teams that decide upon leaving REAL WOMEN out of their games, thus forfeiting those games rather than risk bringing harm to their REAL WOMEN players by forcing them to go up against REAL MEN PRETENDING TO BE WOMEN, it baffles us beyond belief that so many leftist women have sacrificed those rights that so many of them fought so diligently for back in 60's and 70's, while quite literally sacrificing the safety, health and well-being of their daughters to the beast of insanity.

And not only 'liberal' women are sacrificing with the school systems all across the country going absolutely crazy with this idiocy as well, sure to adversely effect the children of Conservatives. Is this REALLY what America and 'The West' have come to, the laughing stock of the world?

(ANP Emergency!: PLEASE donate to ANP! Due to the globalists war upon truth and the independent media, our monthly revenue has been cut by more than 80% so we need your help more now than ever before. Anything at all ANP readers can do to help us is hugely appreciated.)

As this story over at Yahoo Sports reports of the 'Flying (Batsh*t crazy) 'Bats' in Australia back on March 28th, while 'winning' the Beryl Ackroyd Cup in the WOMEN'S league there, they 'won' all four of the games that they played there, including one by a score of 10-0 in which one of those 'tranny' players scored a double hat trick, all of the while they broke one opponents legs in two different places.

Reporting that any team within that competition who actually forfeited a game against them would be guilty of 'discrimination,' the Flying Bats ended up going on winning the $1,000 first prize in that tournament after 24 of the REAL WOMEN players in the 'league' decided not to compete in a tournament against REAL MEN PRETENDING TO BE WOMEN due to the possibility of injuries, and just imagine HOW MANY MORE OF THEM would have been hurt had they gone through with it!

And while America's insane Commander In Chief helped prove his insanity by declaring upon Easter that it would be the 'Transgender Day of Visibility,' he never once acknowledged those REAL WOMEN's RIGHTS that were fought for so hard back in the 60's and 70's and won, instead deciding to take away the RIGHTS of some REAL WOMEN by forcing them to partake in sports often dominated by REAL MEN, putting them at very real risk of very real physical harm, but Biden clearly doesn't care about that possibility.

And while we completely agree with what has been expressed by some of the women's teams in that Australian 'football league,' that the league’s governing body, the Football NSW, should force the Bats into playing in a mixed-sex league because, as one club official told the Daily Telegraph, “Our girls are here to play for fun and expect to play in the female competition. They did not sign up for a mixed competition, the POTUS of the 'Flying Bats' nonetheless claims that 'trannies' deserve to be in the women's league because, insanely, 'that is who they identify as'. Well what about those REAL WOMEN who are getting KILLED by the MEN PRETENDING TO BE WOMEN?

"It was so disheartening for them to see the huge difference in ability—they’re killing it.”

The involvement of transgender athletes in sports is a current hot-button issue, as policymakers grapple with how to balance the effects on women’s players, versus the “rights” of female-identifying players born as biological men.

Advocates argue that transgender individuals should be able to participate in sports according to their gender identity, while opponents raise concerns about fairness and competitive advantage.

One of the key points of contention is the impact of testosterone levels on athletic performance. Testosterone affects muscle mass, strength, and endurance, and transgender males who have undergone hormone therapy to transition may still have higher testosterone levels than cisgender females, providing a competitive advantage in women’s sports.

With myself a wrestler back in my school days, I NEVER would have thought wrestling against REAL WOMEN would have been 'fair' as it certainly would have given me an unfair advantage over almost whoever they were, and never were REAL MEN permitted to wrestle against REAL WOMEN no matter what weight class they were in. Does that even sound the least bit 'fair'?

And as James Corbett reports in this March 26th of 2023 story, we're witnessing nothing less than "Dissent Into Madness" taking place with our "projections of psychopaths" here in the US and most of the Western world in 2024.

With Corbett very accurately pointing out that conspiracy theorizing is being pathologized as a mental disorder and how this false diagnosis is being used to justify the forced psychiatric detention and medication of 9/11 truthers and COVID dissenters, also take note in the passage ahead how this 'psychological weapon' is now being wielded against any would-be dissenters WHILE those 'in charge' are themselves driven by a psychopathological disorder. Yes, the batsh*t crazy are 'running the show' in America and the west. From that crucial story.:

Being Sane In An Insane Society

If you are reading this column, chances are you're already aware of just how insane our society can be.

Maybe you first realized something was deeply wrong with our world when you noticed the discrepancy between what most people actually believe—that JFK was assassinated as the result of a conspiracy, for example—and what you're expected to say in "polite" society—namely, that the Warren Commission got to the bottom of the matter and that anyone who questions its findings is a crazy conspiracy theorist.

Or perhaps the penny dropped when you heard ex-US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright blithely declare on 60 Minutes that the death of half a million Iraqi children in the State Department's campaign against Saddam Hussein was "worth it."

Or maybe you, like many millions of others around the world, began to question the sanity of our society when you saw the madness of the past three years, with governments locking people in their homes and subjecting the poorest among us to starvation and forcing never-before-used medical interventions on billions of people in the name of "public health."

I, too, have had my own such moments of awareness. And, feeling the frustration that comes from realizing just how sick and twisted the world can be, I am often reminded of Jiddu Krishnamurti's famous observation: "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."

But I've also found that you get used to the insanity of this sick society after a while. In fact, you come to expect it.

Of course politicians are always lying to the public.

Of course those in positions of power wouldn't think twice about killing thousands of their fellow citizens—let alone untold millions in the Middle East—in order to achieve their goals.

Of course they'll cook up a phoney scamdemic to usher in their biosecurity state and of course it has nothing to do with keeping people healthy.

In fact, once you've seen through the lies and realized just how profoundly sick our society has become, it turns out that it's not the big things that shock you anymore. It's the little things.

And while Corbett's excellent column goes on and on about 'the little things' in society today that are maddening, and I'll skip those so that you can visit his website and get more deeply into the meat of his piece if you so choose, I'll close here with one of his story segment conclusions about 'a sign' about 'Sustainable Development Goals' that he has seen in Japan. And guess where that sign was? Of ALL places, it was over a urinal. Has it come to a point in time where we have to think about 'global warming' when we're going to the bathroom?:

Meanwhile, I have been watching with consternation as the SDGs have begun intruding more and more into everyday life here in Japan. It's not at all unusual to see a product ad displaying the characteristic coloured boxes indicating which SDG (or SDGs) that product is supposedly promoting (however tenuously), or to see lapel pins sporting the rainbow circle of the SDG logo, now a common accoutrement on the suits of Japanese salarymen.

But to see an SDG here? On a sign over a urinal? Is there truly nowhere we can go where we're not subjected to this 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Enslavement propaganda and all of the Great Reset/Fourth Industrial Revolution/neo-feudal/transhuman nightmare it invokes?

Perhaps the strangest part of all is that if I were to point out this insanity to the average person here, they would look at me as if I were the crazy one. And if I were to back up my viewpoint with the volumes of documented information about the perverse nature of this UN-fronted globalist agenda—the information contained in numerous documentaries and podcasts and interviews and articles on the subject—I would doubtless appear even crazier.

"What's the big deal? It's just a sign."

As it turns out, the sign is indeed a sign. A sign that our society is in fact suffering from the effects of a mental illness.

Russia Deploys Frigate with Hypersonic Missiles into Mediterranean Sea

Hal Turner World April 14, 2024 Hits: 16486

After Russian President Vladimir Putin told the United States that intervening against Iran would result in Russia intervening to support Iran, a Russian frigate with hypersonic missiles entered the waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

A Russian frigate equipped with hypersonic missiles entered the waters of the Mediterranean Sea this Sunday after crossing the Suez Canal, after which Moscow stated that the vessel "will fulfill its assigned tasks", without further details.

The frigate Marshall Shaposhnikov transited the Suez Canal. "The ship's crew continues to carry out their assigned tasks as part of their long sea journey" the Russian Ministry of Defense said this morning.

"In the Mediterranean Sea, the Pacific Fleet frigate will operate in line with the previously planned combat and training line." the Ministry continued.

At the moment, there are no further details about this plan, or how long the frigate will remain near the Israeli-Iran conflict zone.

Half of Iran's ballistic missiles fell short en route to Israel, report says

Several nations urge Israel to avoid escalation, though Israeli officials contend attack warrants a response

ynet correspondents|12:53

Only half of the ballistic missiles Iran fired on Israel during its unprecedented attack against the Jewish state on Saturday were intercepted while the rest fell short, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.

According to the report, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates shared intelligence with the United States that helped facilitate the successful interception of many missiles and drones while Jordan allowed the U.S. to use its airspace to shoot down incoming threats.

A senior U.S. source told ABC that some of Iran's ballistic missiles caused some damage to a C-130 military transport aircraft and some empty storage depots at the Nevatim Airbase in southern Israel.

U.S. President Joe Biden spoke to members of the 335th and 494th fighter squadrons that took an active role in intercepting Iranian ballistic missiles, saying their activity "saved many lives."

The New York Times reported that U.S. efforts helped intercept over 80 drones and at least six ballistic missiles. Additionally, U.S. forces attacked a missile launcher and seven drones in Houthi-controlled Yemen.

While Israeli officials are still contemplating a forceful response to Iran's assault, Iranian Ambassador to the UN Saeed Iravani told Sky News he "knows what our second retaliation would be." Iravani further estimated Israel would not initiate a retaliatory move in response to Saturday's attack.

France, the United Kingdom and Germany have called on Israel to refrain from striking Iran for fear of possibly igniting a regional conflict. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called on Israel to "prevent an escalation."

French President Emmanuel Macron said "we are all concerned about a possible escalation. France will do all it can to prevent it and convince Israel there's no need to retaliate. Things are on shaky ground right now. Iran's response to Israel's attack in Damascus was disproportionate. We must stand by Israel to secure its national defense in the best way possible. In light of Jordan's request, France intercepted attacks from Iran."

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron said Iran's attack was "disproportionate", and implored Israel to refrain from responding and instead focus its efforts on ceasing all hostilities in Gaza.

Iran's attack on Israel lasted about five hours, officials say. Here's what we know

From CNN staff

The unprecedented wave of strikes launched from Iran towards Israel appears to have subsided, two US officials said. The attacks lasted approximately five hours and plunged the already tinder box Middle East into uncharted territory.

Iran said the overnight attacks were retaliation for a deadly Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, earlier this month.

The Biden administration says almost all of the drones and missiles – including more than 100 ballistic missiles – launched at Israel by Iran have been knocked out of the sky.

US President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call that his country should consider tonight a win because the current US assessment is that Iran’s attacks had been largely unsuccessful and demonstrated Israel’s superior military capability, a senior administration official told CNN.

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has asked his Israeli counterpart, Yoav Gallant, to notify the US ahead of any potential response to the Iranian attack, according to a US official. The Israeli security cabinet has authorized the three-man war cabinet to decide on Israel’s response.

Here's what we know so far:

No direct casualties: There have been no reports of injuries suffered directly through Iranian strikes, according to Israel’s emergency service. However, However, a 7-year-old girl was severely injured by shrapnel from an interceptor missile while 31 people were treated for minor injuries or panic attacks.

G7 leaders to meet: Biden will meet with G7 leaders Sunday “to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran’s brazen attack,” according to a statement released by the White House. The leaders of Canada and Portugal condemned Iran's attack, while the prime minister of Spain expressed his “utmost concern."

No US offensive involvement: The US will not participate in any offensive operations against Iran, Biden has made clear to Netanyahu, a senior administration official told CNN.

How it started: Earlier this month, an airstrike destroyed Iran's consulate building in Damascus, Syria, and killed seven Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps officials — including top commanders, according to Iranian officials and state-affiliated media. The foreign ministers of Iran and Syria accused Israel of authoring the attack. Iran vowed to retaliate.

More on Iran's position: Iran’s regional allies say they entered confrontations with Israel on behalf of Palestinians in Gaza, Since the outbreak of war in Gaza, Iran’s proxies have launched attacks on Israel and its allies, while demanding a ceasefire in the Palestinian enclave.

What this means: The beginning of a state-on-state conflict between Iran and Israel marks a serious escalation in the region – a scenario that the US has hoped to avoid since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in October.

There have been no reports of injuries suffered directly through Iranian strikes, according to Israel’s emergency service.

Israeli military says more than 55 rockets fired from Lebanon to Israel over past hour

More than 55 rockets have been fired from Lebanon to Israel over the past hour, according to the Israeli military's spokesperson.

This comes after about 40 rockets were fired at Israel from southern Lebanon on Friday, according to the Israel Defense Forces. Hezbollah militants said they had fired the rockets at Israeli artillery positions in response to recent Israeli attacks and in support of Palestinian people in Gaza.

Remember: Since the start of the Hamas-Israel war on October 7, Israel's flare-up with Hezbollah has intensified on Lebanon’s southern border with Israel.

Hezbollah — a Lebanese armed group backed by Iran — has its main area of operations there. Hezbollah has frequently fired missiles into Israel since October 7 and Israel has responded with its own fire, including airstrikes. Israel has ordered the evacuation of communities along the Lebanese border.

US forces throughout the region were positioned to provide defensive support to Israel ahead of the attack, and the US intended to intercept as many of the launches as it could. US forces intercepted a number of drones intended for Israel as part of a coordinated defensive effort, and Washington remains vigilant for the potential of more activity.

However, even as the number of Iranian drone and missile launches has fallen, Iranian proxy Hezbollah in Lebanon fired a barrage of rockets at northern Israel early Sunday mornin

Officials rush to shut down McKees Rocks Bridge after 23 barges break free in Pittsburgh - weeks after disaster that took down Key Bridge in Baltimore

McKees Rocks Police Department said just after midnight that they would be closing the bridge as a precaution

One local police scanner page said that an estimated 23 barges broke free down the river, with one striking a marina dock

Authorities have been forced to close down the McKees Rocks Bridge after 23 barges reportedly broke free from a tugboat on the Ohio River.

McKees Rocks Police Department said just after midnight that they would be closing the bridge as a precaution.

According to the department, there are currently a number of barges that have broken loose heading down the Ohio River.

One local police scanner page said that there were an estimated 23 barges going down the river, with one striking a marina dock.

In a statement, police said: 'There are number of barges broken loose headed down the Ohio River.

'They may or may not come into contact with sub-structure but we are not willing to take the risk. Please avoid this area until further notice.

It comes just weeks after a the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed after being hit by a container ship.

The ship - the Singaporean-flagged Dali - was 20 minutes into its journey when it slammed into a support column on the bridge.

Divers have recovered three bodies from the underwater wreckage, while the remaining three victims are still unaccounted for.

Crews have been working to extract sections of the fallen bridge, including those entangled in a muddy mess at the bottom of the Patapsco River.

The Coming Events – Iran & Ukraine

April 13, 2024  Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

The world is completely going insane. Markets have been rising with crude, gold, and the dollar in anticipation of an Iranian attack on Israel. The month of May looks to be very critical for markets on a global scale—no worries about our London Conference. We would not hold it in London if it appeared to be a risk. The risks are confined to Russia/Ukraine and the Middle East.

Putin is very Smart

We have a critical turning point on May 7th, which happens to be Putin’s inauguration day in Russia. The Ukrainians do as they are told, and even the Moscow attack was organized by the West, and they did not even try to hide it. They have been praying that Putin will retaliate and attack anything in NATO so they can launch WWIII. But Putin is very smart and he can see what they are trying to do. They need him to attack so they can claim it was unprovoked, as they did to Japan to get the USA into WWII. I fear that Ukraine will follow orders and attempt a stupid stunt against Putin directly for May 7th.

Zelenskyy Johnson

Many Ukrainians woke up after it was published in their main newspaper that Boris Johnson had jumped on a plane and instructed Zelensky that there would be no peace deal with Russia. He was to commit all Ukrainians to death in hopes of weakening Russia so NATO would be able to invade. Zelensky has sent over 500,000 Ukrainians to die for territory that Russians have occupied for hundreds of years. Crimea is Russia’s ONLY warm water port, and this war has been about trying to conquer that and turn it into a NATO port.

Zelensky.Skulls

This has no economic benefit to Ukrainians, and they have been used as pawns in the geopolitical game the West instigated under the leadership of Victoria Nuland. Zelensky has canceled all elections because the people would throw him out of office as a traitor taking orders from the West with no regard for Ukrainian lives.

ECM Ukraine 8.6 R

Ukraine is on the verge of collapse. Sending bullets does not help if you do not have people still standing to use them. We are approaching a critical turning point in the Ukraine War against Russia on April 19th/20th. There is no possible way Russia will be defeated. Nobody in the West ever thought Ukraine could win. Russia had 4.5 million in the army without drafting. Putin could have easily taken all of Ukraine but he has stuck to what he said originally – a special operation to only defend the Donbas. The hardliners criticize Putin for he should have taken Ukraine like the US did to Iraq and the war would have been over in 6 weeks. They have only been used to try to weaken Russia for the end goal of conquering Russia and stripping its wealth.

Then, in the Middle East, the markets are responding with the dollar, gold, and oil on the bid as many await the inevitable attack on Israel by Iran. The markets have rallied on reports that Israel is preparing for a direct attack by Iran this weekend. Many are expecting that this will be the biggest escalation of Middle East tensions in decades.

Iranian_Rial M Array 4 12 24

When we look at our models on Iran, it is the Month of May that has been the major target and the Directional Change. It is hard to interpret the fundamentals. Does Iran launch its retaliation in April and the major response to Iran in May, or does Iran wait for May 7th to respond?

Iranian_Rial D Array 3 27 24

What we can see is that the Israeli bombing of the Iranian embassy in Damascus on April 1st set in motion the shift in trend. The Daily Array pinpointed Friday, March 29th, as a turning point with a Double Directional Change. But there were three Directional changes into Monday, April 1st.

Iranian_Rial W Array 4 12 24

The Weekly Array showed a Directional Change starting the week of April 8th. Look at the next primary target – the ECM week of May 7th. We must understand that May 7th could be more than just one incident.

ECM Islamic State Wave 10

Our models in the Middle East are coming to a major turning point next year, 2025.22 (March 21/22, 2025). Our models on crude oil show a significant directional change in 2025.

Israel is preparing for a direct attack by Iran on southern or northern Israel, and it has been reported they expect it this weekend, according to a source telling The Wall Street Journal. Yet, they did tell the Journal that no final decision has been made, though plans for a strike are under discussion.

The U.S. embassy in Jerusalem Thursday restricted government employees and their families from personal travel outside Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Be’er Sheva “out of an abundance of caution” until further notice. There is no question that Iran will respond. The question is when.

Syracuse sets new high temperature, breaking 79-year-old record

Updated: Apr. 09, 2024, 6:08 p.m.|Published: Apr. 09, 2024, 5:34 p.m.

By Fernando Alba | falba@syracuse.com

Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse has broken a 79-year-old high temperature record for April 9.

A new high of 78 degrees was recorded just before 4 p.m., according to the National Weather Service. The previous record of 77 degrees was set in 1945.

The average high for today would be 43 degrees.

Syracuse’s official weather records began in 1903.

The weather service is forecasting a high of 66 degrees on Wednesday, well short of the record for that date of 82 degrees, also set in 1945.

Twelve Ways Biden's Handlers Are

Hellbent On Destroying America

By Frosty Wooldridge

Exclusive To Rense

4-9-24

Part 1: The incredible speed of our country being invaded, the devolving of our Constitution, our language being changed, our history be altered, we're guilty of being a free country.

Twenty years ago, I sat in the audience when historian Victor Davis Hanson spoke to a "Stop Mass Immigration" audience sponsored by www.Fairus.org  in Washington DC. I shook hands with him. He wrote an extremely prescient book: Mexifornia.

In that book, he exposed how Governor Jerry Brown of California back in 1975 to 1983, and 2011 to 2019, overwhelmed the state with illegal Mexican workers, drug pushers, rapists, shoplifters, welfare anchor babies, and job stealing. He noted how Mexicans moved into positions of power. Today, you're seeing California's ugly situation of being unable to function as a first world state. It features 200,000 homeless, shoplifting killing major stores and chains, regular murders on a grand scale, welfare off the charts for illegal aliens, hospitals and prisons overrun, and the Mexican flag flown more than Old Glory. You see schools taught in Spanish while gangs rob trains, carjack automobiles, cities destroyed by incompetent minority mayors.

Governor Gavin Newsome is totally useless, and MS-13 distributes drugs up and down every city in California. We're talking about the largest state in the lower 48 turning into a corrupt, disgusting and un-American colony. At that same conference, I heard Colorado Governor Richard Lamm give a brilliant speech on: "The Eight Ways to Destroy America." I wrote a book about it: Immigration's Unarmed Invasion: Deadly Consequences." I have been writing about our country being invaded for over 30 years. I've written three books on it. I've tried to warn the American people what's coming. I tried to interview on "60 Minutes, NPR, PBS" and another 30 major network programs.

They didn't and they won't touch it. Some very powerful people want to keep the American people clueless and in the dark as to what's coming. Last week, Hanson wrote a piece: " 11 Ways Biden's Handlers are Hellbent on Destroying America." You can access it on the Internet or Fox News. Notice Hanson's choice of words as to who runs our country. It's not the dementia-plagued Joe Biden. He's clueless, unintelligent, vacant minded and totally out of touch with what's happening to our country.

We are no longer a sovereign country. Biden's handlers have erased our borders. I talked about it in my first book. What astounds me stems from the speed of this invasion. We're talking in excess of 12 million illegal aliens in the past 40 months and over 30 million more already here since 1986.

We are being hung out to death with Congresses' $34 trillion debt. President John Adams said there are two ways to defeat a country, "By the sword or by debt." We're in a hell of a mess with this gargantuan debt that WILL destroy our economic foundation.

Biden's handlers have given Iran and China the keys, money and power to destroy us. Whether it was his son Hunter gaining millions by his father's VP status, or Biden's sheer corruption over the past 50 years in Congress, Iran and China have him by his gonads. That means we're all screwed.

Our identity is now defined by dozens of opposing tribes. We've got so many other tribes in our country, we're no longer Americans. Millions of us identify as something other than "American." Hanson said, "Ensure each identity group rivals the other for victimhood and the state spoils it confers. Reboot all political issues by race and sex oppressors and oppressed. Destroy all meritocratic standards of admission, retention, promotion and commendation."

Change crime from a crime to social issue : do not punish criminals. Reward them. Allow $100 billion in shoplifting annually. Allow 100,000 drug overdoses annually by keeping the borders wide open. Allow American money to the tune of $120 billion annually to fly out from our country to other countries as cash transfers. Invest in "no-bail", no jail, and it's okay to shoot and kill police offers. That's what's happening across America in 2024.

Turn the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard into a bunch of transgenders, gays, illegal aliens, mentally deficient and mentally unfit discontents who can't fight their way out of a paper bag. The fact today: our military is more worried about a transgender's choice of uniform such as a lady's skirt and high heels on a DNA male, rather than a MAN with a PAIR that's trained to defend America with his life.

Hanson said, " Deliberately impugn as racists and insurrectionists the largest demographic in the military who in recent wars died at twice their numbers in the population — so that they leave or never join the military. Encourage retired high officers to slander their commander-in-chief. Cut the defense budget. Stop producing sufficient weapons, but leave billions of dollars' worth of arms to terrorists."

The fact is: somebody like General Milley left $90 billion worth of military hardware in Afghanistan. That wasn't a mistake. It was Biden's handlers totally in control and out to kill America.

In Part 2, we're going to examine the last six items that show how Biden's handlers are hellbent on destroying America. When he brings in another 10 million Muslims, 5 million Chinese and 1-5 million Africans with chain-migration along with "asylum seekers", we won't know who we are or what the hell to do to save ourselves. Biden's handers are effectively destroying our culture, our language, our identity and our way of life.

As Russian warships from the Pacific Fleet enter the Red Sea amid heightened tensions, and with Russian forces establishing new observation posts along the Israel-Syria border, questions arise about Russia's intentions in the Middle East.

The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that a missile cruiser and a frigate have crossed the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait and reached the Red Sea amid ongoing Houthi attacks, though the purpose of their mission remains unclear.

This move follows the Kremlin's denial of receiving security assurances from the Houthis to prevent attacks on their ships, raising concerns about Russia's strategic goals.

Simultaneously, Russian forces continue to expand their presence in the Syrian Golan Heights, with plans to inaugurate an 11th observation post soon.

The recent surge in Russian involvement in the region, particularly concerning Israel, since October 7, prompts two main interpretations.

Firstly, Russia appears to be asserting itself in the Red Sea, aligning its actions with its rhetoric. By deploying ships to the Red Sea amidst escalating tensions, Russia is signaling its willingness to engage in the volatile maritime arena, potentially altering the dynamics of the region significantly.

Moreover, Russia's increased presence along the Israel-Syria border could serve to bolster its position in the event of a broader conflict, positioning itself as a key player in regional affairs.

The second interpretation suggests that Moscow is sending a clear message to Jerusalem. Recent tensions between the two nations, particularly regarding Russia's support for Hamas and Israel's statements in support of Ukraine, may have prompted Russia to increase its military presence along Israel's borders as a form of diplomatic pressure.

These developments underscore the need for the Israeli government to reassess its strategic relationship with Russia.

While relations have experienced strain since October 7, they have not reached a breaking point, leaving room for potential diplomatic maneuvers in the near future.

Respected Japanese medical doctor issues warning to the world: New wave of 'genetic' vaccines is coming down the pike like a freight train and must be avoided at all costs

This is a must-watch video message that blows the whistle on the whole rotten scheme

Leo Hohmann  Apr 11, 2024

A world-renowned Japanese professor has released a video message to humanity, warning that the Covid pandemic was a man-made hoax designed to “drive vaccinations” into the bodies of billions of people worldwide.

The chilling message was issued by Dr. Masayasu Inoue, MD, PhD, and professor emeritus at Osaka City University Medical School.

According to the respected medical doctor, the “false” pandemic was orchestrated by the United Nations World Health Organization, along with other globalist organizations and global governments.

The professor accuses these entities of an “extreme violation of human rights.”

The doctor argues that the global vaccination agenda was a fraudulent use of “experimental gene therapy” that was pushed onto “healthy people.”

The United States militarized the premature manufacture and distribution of the vaccines through Operation Warp Speed, which the doctor described as a “fraudulent” pretext based on the supposed urgency of a pandemic. This sense of public panic, urgency and outright hysteria was needed in order to get a new class of genetic vaccines into people’s bodies before proper testing could be carried out. The bodies of those who received the injections were trained to manufacture a toxic spike protein that collects in bodily tissue and is now causing all sorts of health problems, many of them deadly or debilitating.

The vaccines have been particularly devastating to children and young adults.

He warns that the result of rolling out Covid mRNA vaccines has led to “the induction of the terrible drug-induced injury that has never [been] seen in human history.”

He said new mRNA vaccine factories are now being constructed in his home country of Japan.

The Japanese doctor delivered his “message for the world” during a press conference in Geneva, Switzerland.

Japan’s first mRNA vaccine manufacturing plant opened in February 2023 and others are in the works.

The Japanese whistleblowing doctor warned, “There is a high risk that Japan-made vaccines will be exported under the guise of false trust.”

TRANSLATION: Do not receive them into your body no matter what new “pandemic” comes our way.

The Great Dispossession

April 12, 2024

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Klaus Schwab tells us that in the Great Reset that the World Economic Forum is preparing for us “you will own nothing and you will be happy.” Well, we already own nothing. Our bank deposits and stocks and bonds, in the event the depository institution gets into trouble, belong to the depository institution’s creditors, not to us. All assets are pooled and serve as collateral whether or not labeled “segregated.”

You might remember that during the last financial crisis we were told that there would be no more bail-outs, that in the future there would be bail-ins. A bail-out is when central bank money creation rescues the favored troubled financial institutions. A bail-in is when the depositors’ assets are used for the rescues.

David Rogers Webb, an experienced financial market participant, explains it in The Great Taking in 72 readable pages plus a 25 page prologue explaining who he is and a 20 page reply of the New York Fed to the European Commission Legal Certainty Group’s questions. The Great Taking is available from Lulu for $10 and is free online: https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/1ee786fb-3c78-4903-9701-d614892d09d6/taking-feb24-screen2.pdf 

The loss of property rights in financial assets is the case throughout the Western world. The rewrite of financial property rights appears to be the work of regulatory bodies, not legislatures which seem to be unaware of it.

No, it is not a conspiracy theory. Regulatory authorities have made legal changes of which financial market participants are unaware. Webb’s purpose is to bring awareness, which is why he has made his book freely available.

As a result of these changes, which appear to have been made by financial regulatory authorities rather than by elected legislatures, individuals no longer have property rights in “their” securities. “Owners” now have “entitlement rights,” which means that they have pro-rata rights to whatever securities remain in the depository institution after secured creditors’ claims are met. In actual fact, “your” securities and your bank deposits are no longer recognized in law as your personal property if the depository institution–the bank or, for example, Merrill Lynch–becomes financially troubled. Your “ownership” is encumbered as collateral for secured creditors who are the owners in fact. Apparently, this was done by regulatory authorities as underpinning for the derivatives complex, which is many magnitudes greater than world GNP, or perhaps derivative exposure served as an excuse for setting up the Great Reset in which “you will own nothing.” Indeed, individual banks among the world’s largest have derivative exposure the size of world GDP.

You might wonder why regulatory authorities permitted something so dangerous and irresponsible to occur.

To state the bottom line in another way, “your” securities serve as collateral for the creditors of depository institutions. Your right to “your” property terminates the minute the depository institution gets in financial trouble.

Communications between the New York Federal Reserve Bank and the European Commission Legal Certainty Group and the court case resulting from the failure of Lehman Brothers have established legal certainty that secured creditors are empowered to immediately take client assets in the event of a failure in the custodian.

National central depositories of securities (all are now pooled, none held under the “owner’s” name or segregated) are now established and are linked to the international depository so that securities can instantly be delivered world wide to meet secured creditors’ claims. Essentially, the mega-banks are “privileged creditors.”

You might think that your money and your stocks and bonds would be safe if you use as your depository one of the “banks too big to fail.” You would be mistaken. The Federal Reserve permits the large banks to create subsidiaries that hold deposits, and the Federal Reserve permits the large banks to transfer their derivatives to these same subsidiaries. In this way, the bank itself remains afloat. Only its subsidiaries holding your money and securities are wiped out in the event of a crash.

At the risk of over-promising, as even for a person of my education and experience getting one’s mind around the enormity of what has been put in place is a challenge, I hope for this article, which you have just read, to be part 1 in a 3-part series, with the second part being an outline of the regulatory changes that stole our financial property rights, and the third part being the implications of the Federal Reserve’s raising of interest rates after 15 years of near zero rates, thus shredding the value of financial assets held in portfolios. We face the prospect of the worst financial crisis in history “solved” with the introduction of digital money that places total control into the hands of political power and its masters.

Avian Flu Found In Seventh State As Cattle Restrictions Grow

by Tyler Durden  Friday, Apr 12, 2024 - 10:30 AM

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),

North Carolina authorities on April 10 reported that cows in the state tested positive for highly pathogenic avian influenza, as the state became the latest to impose restrictions on the movement of cows.

Testing of samples from North Carolina conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) came back positive for the influenza, also known as the bird flu and HPAI, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services said.

“We have spent years developing methods to handle HPAI in poultry, but this is new and we are working with our state and federal partners to develop protocols to handle this situation,” Steve Troxler, the state’s agriculture commissioner, said in a statement.

He noted that, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, there is presently no concern regarding the safety or availability of pasteurized milk or milk products in the United States. Some experts, though, have warned there’s not enough evidence to support that position.

Avian influenza cases in cattle first appeared in the United States in March. USDA officials have since confirmed cases in 20 herds across six states, including Idaho, Kansas, and Texas, and a single case in a human. They have not yet commented on the North Carolina situation.

Stephanie Langel, an assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University’s School of Medicine, said on social media that because the influenza is not a reportable disease in cows, it’s likely the outbreak is larger than currently represented.

USDA officials do not require testing and only recommend testing if cows start exhibiting symptoms.

“Additionally, the majority of workers on dairy farms (especially large farms) are undocumented and are less likely to report symptoms,” Ms. Langel said, referring to illegal immigrants. “I worry we are underestimating human infections.”

The strain of HPAI that’s circulating, H5N1, originates from birds. Dead birds have been found on farms that have had cows with confirmed cases.

Bird flu is often fatal in birds and humans, but human cases are rare. The recent human case in Texas is only the second in history in the United States. Both patients recovered, officials say.

Worldwide, between 2003 and April 1 of this year, 889 human cases have been reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) from 23 countries. Of those patients, 463 died, the organization said.

Genomic sequencing of the virus in the Texas patient showed a mutation that makes the flu more likely to infect mammals, but the risk to people remains low, according to U.S. public health officials.

“Since the virus has not acquired mutations that facilitate transmission among humans and based on available information, WHO assesses the public health risk to the general population posed by this virus to be low and for occupationally exposed persons, the risk of infection is considered low-to-moderate,” WHO said in an April 9 brief. The agency noted that sustained human-to-human transmission of the strain and similar variants have never been detected.

No vaccines are currently available against H5N1.

Officials recommend people not get close to dead animals or animal droppings and not consume raw milk or raw cheese.

Restrictions

Due to the positive tests from cows in North Carolina, officials joined a growing number of states in restricting the movement of cows.

The movement of cattle from herds with confirmed cases in other states to North Carolina has been suspended, according to the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Seventeen other states have also placed restrictions on cattle importations from the affected states, with Maryland joining the list on Wednesday.

Several states have said the sick cattle have come from Texas, where the first cases were detected.

Now that 21 herds have tested positive, it “stretches plausibility that it was all from one farm, but theoretically possible, given the amount cattle can move,” Gail Hansen, a doctor of veterinary medicine who used to be the state veterinarian for Kansas, wrote on the social media platform X.

The USDA has advised against moving sick or exposed animals and minimizing the movement of other cattle “as much as possible.”

“If cattle must be moved, we strongly encourage extreme diligence by producers, veterinarians, and animal health officials to ensure only healthy cattle are moving and to ensure the validity of interstate health certificates,” the agency said.

Terrorist Billionaires & The Future of Food

By Amil Imani|April 12th, 2024

Let us be clear—Consuming insect-based foods comes with potential health risks. These risks are primarily related to food safety and the presence of allergens or toxins in some insects.

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has highlighted several food safety issues associated with edible insects. These concerns include:

Pathogens: Insects can harbor bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can risk human health if not properly handled or cooked.

Allergens: Some insects contain allergens that can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.

Toxins: Certain insects may contain toxins that can be harmful if consumed in large amounts.

Insects can contain allergens that may trigger allergic reactions in some individuals. These reactions can range from mild to severe, depending on the individual’s sensitivity and the amount of insect consumed. Allergic reactions can manifest as skin rashes, itching, swelling, and, in severe cases, anaphylaxis, which requires immediate medical attention.

Moreover, some insects are known to contain toxins that can be harmful to human health. These toxins can affect various systems in the body, including the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. Symptoms of toxin exposure can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and, in severe cases, coma or death.

Now, enter billionaires with sinister motives. At the forefront is none other than Bill Gates, who is relentlessly plotting to manipulate the world’s food supply, pushing for the consumption of insects and alternative proteins while buying large amounts of American farmland.

Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft and a prominent figure in the so-called philanthropic sector, advocates for a diet of insects and, through his foundation and investments, works towards a future where traditional livestock is replaced by insect-based foods. All these can be traced back to Gates’s foundation’s investment in All Things Bugs, LLC, a company aiming to develop nutritionally dense food using insect species.

Bill Gates’s agenda-driven interest in sustainable food solutions is not limited to insects. He has also invested in cultured meat, a lab-grown alternative to traditional beef, which has received $50 million in funding. Gates’s investments and advocacy for his so-called sustainable food solutions are part of a sinister effort disguised as global challenges, including climate change and food security. His property acquisitions, including farmland in North Dakota and Texas, have only added fuel to speculations about his intentions, and these actions are likely part of a larger strategy to take our food away and make us eat insects.

Then we have Klaus Schwab and his “The Great Reset” plot to intending to destroy capitalism and enact a one-world government under the cover of COVID-19 and other agendas. Schwab founded the WEF with the help of Henry Kissinger and is actively supported by Prince Charles. Schwab likely established his ties with other influential American advocates of globalization through Kissinger’s International Seminar, which the CIA funded with $135,000. The global elite led by Schwab used the “pandemic” opportunity to roll out radical policies, such as forced vaccination, digital ID cards, and the renunciation of private property. The sinister agenda of the World Economic Forum (WEF) becomes evident from the fact that the unelected Schwab has served as the WEF’s chairman since its inception, and he continues to hold the position of Founder and Executive Chairman today.

In the meantime, we hear about billionaires buying bunkers and islands as if prepping for an apocalypse. The truth is that land acquisitions in Hawaii by billionaires displace local communities, raising concerns about mirroring a modern twist on feudalism. Ultimately, these billionaires aren’t just waiting for the apocalypse but actively shaping their own self-sufficient, controlled environments while we can survive on the insect food they produce.

I rest my case with a summary of the points regarding the risks of eating insects:

Allergic Reactions: Some people may have allergic reactions to insects, similar to allergies to shellfish or shrimp, due to the presence of chitin in their exoskeletons. This can lead to symptoms ranging from mild to severe.

Microorganisms and Pathogens: Insects can harbor pathogens on their surface, in their gut, and as part of their reproductive cycle. The full scope of the microbiota of edible insects is unknown, and whether these extrinsic pathogens may be harmful if eaten. Cooking may not kill them, either.

Biological and Chemical Contaminants: Insects grown on agricultural waste may be exposed to mycotoxins, pesticides, and other chemical hazards like toxic metals and dioxins. High lead levels have been found in dried grasshoppers, leading to elevated blood lead levels in humans.

Processing Risks: When heated or cooked, the chemical-thermal reactions with the toxins on their shells or within their guts can release toxic compounds that accumulate in the protein meal.

The future of food is definitely at stake, and billionaires and their vast wealth continue to influence food systems in concerning ways.

Gold Is Doing Its Job

Posted on April 12, 2024 by MN Gordon

On Monday, the U.S. Commerce Department announced it was awarding Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) a $6.6 billion CHIPS Act subsidy for the fabrication of computer microchips in Phoenix, Arizona. TSMC will also receive up to $5 billion in low-cost government loans.

In return, TSMC will expand its planned investment from $40 billion to $65 billion and add a third Arizona fabrication site by 2030. The company will be producing the world’s most advanced 2 nanometer technology at its second site starting in 2028.

The Commerce Department anticipates the development will create 6,000 long term manufacturing jobs and 20,000 shorter term construction jobs. With the AI arms race rapidly escalating, having semiconductor fabrication on American soil may be a strategic necessity. Nonetheless, subsidizing industry – in this case a foreign company – using American taxpayer dollars comes with lasting costs.

This is but one of countless examples of how the U.S. economy no longer functions through the free and mutual exchange of individual citizens in the marketplace. It is subject to extreme intervention from planners in the government.

These planners include members of Congress. And they pass ridiculous spending bills that condemn the American populace to a lifetime of debt servitude. Crony contracts. Pork barrel waste. Manufacturing subsidies. Social transfer payments. These costs all pile up on the national debt ledger.

The recent $1.2 trillion spending bill, for example, is over 1,000 pages. It includes massive giveaways for various departments such as Defense, Homeland Security, Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and State.

Are these departments really spending this money for the greater good?

Not Capitalism

The effect of all this government spending twists the economy in strange and unnatural ways. Money is extracted from people and businesses who earned it by delivering goods and services of value. Then, it is pumped into agencies and departments, and government contractors, who otherwise would be incapable of standing on their own two feet.

To be clear, this economic system has nothing to do with capitalism. Rather, it’s a centrally planned economy that feeds off the fruits of capitalism, while trampling upon individual freedom and personal liberty.

Call it cronyism. Call it fascism. Call it tyranny. Call it whatever you want. But don’t confuse any unpleasantness you’re currently experiencing with the failure of free market capitalism.

Mega government spending bills have nothing to do with free market capitalism. And they have everything to do with rising consumer prices. But that’s not the half of it.

While your Congressional representatives are busy handing out money like breath mints, there’s a whole other beast of central planners that are devouring people’s labors and extracting value for the benefit of member banks. Here we’re referring to the Federal Reserve System – the central banking system of the U.S.

This cartel provides big banks with an astonishing benefit. When the economy expands, the bankers earn substantial profits. But when the economy contracts, often the consequences of reckless lending by bankers, the Fed bails them out with credit created out of thin air. This has the effect of transferring the losses to the public.

The U.S. government has added $29 trillion in new debt since 2000. How was all this debt made possible? How was it financed at such ultra-low interest rates?

In short, this was all made possible by the expansion of the Fed’s balance sheet.

Currency Debasement

Still, there are no free lunches. And even in a fiat money system, where new money and credits are issued with just a few strokes of the keyboard, there are limitations.

The coronavirus fiasco’s mega money printing saturnalia blew consumer price inflation out to 40-year highs in mid-2022. And prices have continued to rise from there. Moreover, the consequences are making life extraordinarily disagreeable for vast numbers of people.

This week’s CPI report showed consumer prices increased 0.4 percent in March and 3.5 percent over the last 12 months. This 3.5 percent annual CPI increase reported in March is 75 percent higher than the Fed’s arbitrary 2 percent inflation target.

Nonetheless, looking back just one year gives an incomplete picture of rising consumer prices. Remember, the 3.5 percent increase over the past 12 months is compounded on top of prior years. Thus, to better understand the rampant level of currency debasement you’ve been subjected to it is appropriate to look back several years.

The world changed dramatically in March 2020 when the government shut down the economy and started sending out stimmy checks. We all lived through it. And we continue to experience the fallout. So, let’s look back accordingly.

Since March 2020, at the onset of the coronavirus madness, the CPI has increased from 258.115 to 312.332. That’s an increase of 21 percent. Has your income kept pace with inflation over the last four years?

If the answer is no, you didn’t do anything wrong. You’re merely suffering the consequences of central planners who are hellbent on destroying the currency. By implication, you’re worse off than you were four years ago.

What’s more, the figures above are all courtesy of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Thus, they’re understated to conceal the government’s failings. By our estimation, over the last four years, consumer prices have inflated by about double – 40 percent – from what the BLS reports.

Gold Is Doing Its Job

The rapid rise in consumer prices is a consequence of the Fed’s and the Treasury’s joint money printing operations. In other words, rising consumer prices are an expression of too much artificial stimulation. What’s more, the entire economic and financial edifice depends on it. Take it away, and it collapses.

Central bankers, like Fed Chair Jerome Powell, understand that they have only two options. Continue stimulating until the dollar loses all value and society breaks down into disorder and disarray. Or stop simulating and cause a complete credit collapse and 1930s-style depression.

Neither scenario is very appealing. But, as you’re likely aware, the choice has already been made. The Fed will continue inflating and debasing the dollar, with the hope of managing a slow burn into the ultimate hyperinflationary collapse.

With a little luck, the Fed will be able to put this off for a few more years. The goal is to postpone the day of reckoning until significant hoards of baby boomers have vacated the planet. Then, the younger generations will be left to pick up the pieces.

In the interim, chaos is already boiling over in many areas. High consumer prices. Unsustainable debt burdens. Widening income and wealth inequality. Mass urban homeless encampments. Border chaos.

These are all characteristics of an economy with terrible fiscal and monetary policies and significant corruption and fraud. But you don’t have to be a victim.

Physical gold – and silver – has provided wealth protection in times of chaos for thousands of years. No doubt, it will provide this important service as the consequences of decades of currency debasement and corruption catch up with America.

Year-to-date gold is up over 15 percent in dollar terms. Over this same time, silver is up about 20 percent.

Indeed, gold and silver are doing their job. Was there ever a doubt they wouldn’t?

[Editor’s note: It really is amazing how just a few simple contrary decisions can lead to life-changing wealth. And right now, at this very moment, I’m preparing to make a contrary decision once again. >> And I’d like to show you how can too.]

Sincerely,

Pentagon moving additional assets to Middle East region in face of Iran threat, according to US official

From CNN's Natasha Bertrand

The US Defense Department is moving additional assets to the Middle East region, a defense official told CNN, as Israel and the US brace for a potential Iranian attack on Israeli facilities in the country and the broader region.

The move is "to bolster regional deterrence efforts and increase force protection for U.S. forces," according to the official.

The Pentagon has been working specifically to reinforce air defenses for the US troops stationed in Iraq and Syria, who came under attack by Iran-backed proxy forces over 100 times between October and February. In January, three US service members were killed when a drone got through US air defenses at the Tower 22 base in Jordan.

The US is not anticipating that Iran or its proxies will attack US forces as part of its retaliation, but are moving the assets just in case.

‘Run, run, run': Chaos at a Sydney mall as 6 people stabbed to death, and the suspect fatally shot

SYDNEY (AP) — A man stabbed six people to death at a busy Sydney shopping center Saturday before he was fatally shot, police said, with hundreds fleeing the chaotic scene, many weeping as they carried their children. Eight people, including a 9-month-old, were injured.

The 40-year-old was stopped in the knifing attack at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Bondi Junction, which is in the city’s eastern suburbs, when a police inspector shot him after he turned and raised a knife, New South Wales Assistant Police Commissioner Anthony Cooke told reporters.

“They just said run, run, run — someone’s been stabbed,” one witness told ABC TV in Australia. ”(The attacker) was walking really calmly like he was having an ice cream in a park. And then he went up the escalators ... and probably within about a minute we heard three gunshots.”

Six of the victims — five women and a man — and the suspect died. Commissioner Karen Webb said the eight injured people were being treated at hospitals. The baby was in surgery, but it was too early to know the condition, she said.

“We are confident that there is no ongoing risk, and we are dealing with one person who is now deceased,” Webb said in a later briefing. She added: “It’s not a terrorism incident.”

She said police wouldn’t identify the man yet and were still working to determine his motivation.

Cooke said a ”lengthy and precise” investigation was just beginning.

Some witnesses were shocked at the rare outburst of violence. Australia enacted strict gun laws after a man killed 35 and wounded another 23 in 1996, in Tasmania.

Cooke said the police inspector, a senior officer, was alone when she confronted the suspect and engaged him soon after her arrival on the scene, “saving a range of people’s lives.”

The officer “showed enormous courage and bravery,” Webb said.

“If she didn’t shoot, he would have kept going, and I don’t know how many more he would have done,” another witness told 7News, speaking of the police inspector.

Video showed many ambulances and police cars around the shopping center, and people streaming out, many with children in their arms.

Paramedics were treating patients at the scene.

Roi Huberman, a sound engineer at ABC TV in Australia, told the network that he sheltered in a store during the incident.

“And suddenly we heard a shot or maybe two shots and we didn’t know what to do,” he said. “Then the very capable person in the store took us to the back where it can be locked. She then locked the store and then she then let us through the back and now we are out.”

The most senior members of Britain’s royal family, who are also royals in Australia, expressed their shock and sadness over the stabbings.

King Charles III said he and his wife Queen Camilla were “utterly shocked and horrified” by the “senseless attack” in Sydney and that their “hearts go out to the families and loved ones of those who have been so brutally killed.” The king’s eldest son Prince William and his wife Catherine, Princess of Wales, said they too were “shocked and saddened” and that their thoughts are with those affected and the “heroic emergency responders who risked their own lives to save others.”

Hezbollah elite commander killed in Israeli strike on southern Lebanon

Senior Hezbollah operative Ali Ahmad Hussein, equivalent in rank to a brigade commander, is the fifth terror group commander of this rank to be killed since the war began

Yoav Zitun, Lior Ben Ari|04:27

The Israeli Air Force eliminated Ali Ahmad Hussein, the commander of the Hezbollah elite Radwan Force's Hajir attack sector, in a strike on the al-Sultaniyeh area in southern Lebanon overnight Monday.

Hussein, a senior officer with a rank equivalent to brigade commander, was responsible for planning and executing terror plots in the Ramim Ridges area against Israeli civilians.

Since the onset of the war, Hussein had been instrumental in launching numerous attacks on Israeli territory. The strike also resulted in the deaths of two additional Hezbollah terrorists under his command.

The former commander of Hezbollah's Hajir sector, who was eliminated at the end of February, served as the defense sector leader on the Lebanese side of the Ramim Ridge, overseeing the Hula Valley and Kiryat Shmona.

Hussein, who was eliminated in the overnight operation, commanded the attack sector for Hezbollah's elite Radwan Force in the same region, responsible for planning and executing extensive attacks into Israeli territory.

Hussein's death marks the fifth brigade commander-level operative in Hezbollah to be killed since the onset of the war.

Have You Heard About The 2 Gigantic Crosses That Stand At The Intersections Of The Eclipses?

April 4, 2024 by Michael

Something truly extraordinary is going to happen as the Great American Eclipse of 2024 passes over the United States, and hardly anyone is talking about it. Those that follow my work on a regular basis have already heard much of what I am about to share with you in this article, and I apologize to them in advance. But I feel compelled to write about this again, because the information that I am about to share with you is incredibly explosive and so few people know about it. My hope is that if I make enough noise about all of this, it will inspire others to make videos and write articles about these giant crosses.

A 111 foot tall cross stands where the path of the Great American Eclipse of 2024 will intersect with the path of the Great American Eclipse of 2017 on April 8th.

And a cross that is 77 feet and 7 inches tall stands where the path of the Great American Eclipse of 2024 will intersect with the path of the “ring of fire” solar eclipse of 2023 on April 8th.

Is it just a coincidence that 2 giant crosses stand at the intersections of these eclipses?

I don’t think so.

I believe that only God could have orchestrated this.

On April 8th, an area in southern Illinois known as “Little Egypt” that was plunged into darkness by the Great American Eclipse of 2017 will also be plunged into darkness by the Great American Eclipse of 2024.

This particular area of southern Illinois has been known as “Little Egypt” since the very early days of our country…

In 1799, Baptist minister John Badgley dubbed the fertile highlands and bottoms near Edwardsville the “Land of Goshen“. Early Edwardsville was known as Goshen. This was a biblical reference to Ancient Egypt. Geographic features such as the Mississippi and its flood plains were like the fertile Nile valley. The Indian mounds of the area were large at the time and seemed like the pyramids of Egypt. The nickname stuck, and it was reinforced by other events.

In the 1830s, poor harvests in the north of the state drove people to Southern Illinois to buy grain.[16] Others say it was because the land of the great Mississippi and Ohio River valleys were like that of Egypt’s Nile Delta. According to Hubbs,[citation needed] the nickname dates back to 1818, when a huge tract of land was purchased at the confluence of the rivers and its developers named it Cairo /ˈkɛəroʊ/. Today, the town of Cairo still stands on the peninsula where the Ohio River joins the Mississippi.

Other settlements in the area were also given names with Egyptian, Greek, or Middle Eastern origins: The Southern Illinois University Salukis sports teams and towns such as Metropolis, Thebes, Dongola, Palestine, Lebanon, New Athens, Sparta, and Karnak show the influence of classical culture.

In the heart of “Little Egypt”, there is a gigantic white cross.

It is known as “The Bald Knob Cross of Peace”, and it is 111 feet high…

Bald Knob Cross, officially known as the Bald Knob Cross of Peace, is a large white cross located in Alto Pass, Illinois, United States.[1] The structure is 111 feet (34 m) tall. The base of the cross is 1,034 feet above sea level and overlooks the Shawnee National Forest. Originally completed in 1963, the cross itself stands 111 feet tall, is 22 feet square at the base, 16 feet square at the top and its arms extend 63 feet horizontally. The exterior white panels covering the cross are 4-inch architectural flat insulated metal panels while the base portion is covered in granite approximately 4-inches thick. The structure sits on a foundation of 730 tons of reinforced concrete that goes down 20 feet to bedrock. The steel framework weighs approximately 170 tons. Each of the four sides of the cross have a word inscribed into the granite: Peace, Hope, Faith, Charity.[2]

As the Great American Eclipse of 2024 completes the gigantic “cross” over America that the Great American Eclipse of 2017 started, a gigantic cross that is 111 feet tall will be standing at the intersection of those two eclipses.

If you aren’t amazed by that, I honestly don’t know what to say.

But that isn’t the end of the story, because there is more.

As the Great American Eclipse of 2024 completes the gigantic “cross” over America that the “ring of fire” solar eclipse of 2023 started, a gigantic cross that is 77 feet and 7 inches tall will be standing at the intersection of those two eclipses.

It is known as “The Empty Cross”, and it is in the Coming King Sculpture Prayer Garden in Kerrville, Texas…

The 77′ 7″ hollow cross sculpture at this site has been seen by millions of people traveling on Interstate 10, connecting California and Florida. Countless others have learned about this unique spiritual art garden through various media channels. Remarkably, the paths of the Oct. 14, 2023, Annular Solar Eclipse and the April 8, 2024, Total Solar Eclipse converge deliberately. Many believe this convergence, forming a colossal cross in the sky directly above “The Empty Cross,” is not a random occurrence but a divine sign—a message from the Creator Himself.

You literally cannot miss this cross when you are traveling on Interstate 10, because it is absolutely enormous.

If you are not familiar with “The Empty Cross”, here is some information from the official website of the Coming King Sculpture Prayer Garden…

The Empty Cross”™ is a seven-story Cor-ten steel sculpture by artist/evangelist, Max Greiner, Jr. This stunning signed and numbered edition Cor-ten sculpture was donated to THE COMING KING FOUNDATION by Max and Sherry Greiner, and Monte and Beverly Paddleford, owners of Eagle Bronze Foundry in Lander, WY. This unique contemporary sculpture was installed on top of a 1930’ hilltop above IH-10 on July 27, 2010.

“The Empty Cross”™ is believed to be the most symbolic cross sculpture in the world because of its Biblical symbolism. The massive open hollow cross symbolizes the Resurrection, the Door, the Narrow Gate, the Strong Tower, the Mighty Fortress, and the Light of the World, who is Jesus Christ. God sees mankind through the cross while mankind can only see the true God by looking at the cross.

And as all of this is happening, the sun, the moon and the other seven planets in our solar system will be lined up in the sky.

I shared the following graphic that was originally posted on Reddit yesterday, but I am going to share it one more time so that you can see exactly what I am talking about…

That is pretty amazing.

To top everything off, as the Great American Eclipse of 2024 is passing over America, the sun will already be down in Jerusalem and the first day of the first month on the Hebrew calendar will have begun.

Can you believe that there are actually some people out there that think that none of this has any significance whatsoever?

The heavens are literally screaming at us to pay attention.

Ultimately, I am entirely convinced that the Great American Eclipse of 2024 is meant to point us to Jesus and the cross, but the vast majority of the population seems to be completely missing that point.

US Scientists Shoot Salt Crystals Into Atmosphere To Block Sunrays To Fight Climate Change, But Did Not Tell The Public To Avoid Scrutiny

ago 18 hours  by Jacob M. Thompson

3 Comments

Mainstream media is not even trying to hide it anymore, and are pretending as if this is totally normal.

Researchers at the University of Washington have covertly carried out what is being touted as the United States’ first-ever outdoor test to curb global warming by increasing cloud cover, by launching a mist of salt crystals into the atmosphere from the deck of a decommissioned aircraft carrier in the San Francisco Bay.

Robert Wood, the scientist for the team, said, “Every year that we have new records of climate change, and record temperatures, heat waves, it’s driving the field to look at more alternatives. Even ones that may have once been relatively extreme.”

The University of Washington’s study, “Field Study of Controlled-Release Sea Salt Aerosol Plume,” can be read here.

The news of this work was detailed in a piece by The New York Times last week, though did not garner a lot of attention as is.

Scientific American wrote:

The move led by researchers at the University of Washington has renewed questions about how to effectively and ethically study promising climate technologies that could also harm communities and ecosystems in unexpected ways. The experiment is spraying microscopic salt particles into the air, and the secrecy surrounding its timing caught even some experts off guard.

The Coastal Atmospheric Aerosol Research and Engagement, or CAARE, project is using specially built sprayers to shoot trillions of sea salt particles into the sky in an effort to increase the density — and reflective capacity — of marine clouds. The experiment is taking place, when conditions permit, atop the USS Hornet Sea, Air & Space Museum in Alameda, California, and will run through the end of May, according to a weather modification form the team filed with federal regulators.

But, just like the reports that have not gotten all that much exposure, the experiments were done covertly as not to upset the public.

The NYT, which had special access to watch the experiment as it was taking place, indicated that the secrecy was intentional.

The idea of interfering with nature is so contentious, organizers of Tuesday’s test kept the details tightly held, concerned that critics would try to stop them. Although the Biden administration is funding research into different climate interventions, including marine cloud brightening, the White House distanced itself from the California study, sending a statement to The New York Times that read: “The U.S. government is not involved in the Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) experiment taking place in Alameda, CA, or anywhere else.”

The NYT wrote

Furthermore the Times noted: ‘If it works, the next stage would be to aim at the heavens and try to change the composition of clouds above the Earth’s oceans.’

Since this experiment was kept under wraps until the test started, we are eager to see how public engagement is being planned and who will be involved. While it complies with all current regulatory requirements, there is a clear need to reexamine what a strong regulatory framework must look like in a world where [solar radiation modification] experimentation is happening.

Shuchi Talati, the executive director of the Alliance for Just Deliberation on Solar Geoengineering, a nonprofit that seeks to include developing countries in decisions about solar modification

David Santillo, a senior scientist at Greenpeace International, also shared his discontent and concern with this experiment. “You could well be changing climactic patterns, not just over the sea, but over land as well. This is a scary vision of the future that we should try and avoid at all costs.”

Sarah Doherty, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Washington and manager of the school’s marine cloud brightening program, also concurs and claims they wish this technology never has to be or is used.

I hope, and I think all my colleagues hope, that we never use these things, that we never have to.

She said, citing ‘potential side effects that still needed to be studied, including changing ocean circulation patterns and temperatures, which might hurt fisheries,’ but still noted the importance of conducting these experiments

But whether Doherty knows it or not, geo-engineering/cloud-seeding – what once used to be considered a “conspiracy theory” – has now becoming more mainstream and common to talk about.

Almost one year ago exactly ABC News ran a detailed segment highlighting how companies and agencies have been spraying silver iodine from planes into the atmosphere to create more precipitation. The lead investigator for ABC covering this, Ginger Zee, was also a guest on ABC’s The View, where she casually revealed to an unsuspecting population that this practice has been going on for some time, but a newer concept is being adopted where machines that sit on the ground simply “puff” the chemicals into the air to achieve the same effects. “Ten states are doing this,” she said a year ago.

More recent experimentation has also been cited in the mainstream media. In January, officials in Southern California conducted “tests” to increase the area’s water supply. This was highlighted by environmental and independent journalist Allison Morrow in a video report. Similar to this recent study conducted by the University of Washington, the negative effects and damage this could cause was not discussed in the media’s reports.

Last summer both the European Union and the White House put out official dossiers openly discussing proposals to dampen the sun’s rays to mitigate the effects of climate change. SEE: European Union Introduces New Proposals To Block Out The Sun Via ‘Solar Radiation Modification’ & White House Releases Dossier To Block The Sun With ‘Solar Radiation Modification’

Moreover, The WinePress noted in 2022 that other nations were looking into expanding these cloud-seeding projects to increase precipitation.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY

What used to be called a “tinhat conspiracy theory” decades ago, and would have gotten you ridiculed (I know I was when talked about it many years ago, even as a child I knew), now is just casually and nonchalantly being presented as if this has always been common knowledge, and how great it is; and the sad part is most people who are fixated to the mainstream propaganda will just passively accept it as so.

But even now the media and the scientists still keep trying to gaslight us, as if this is some new thing. NO! It’s been going on for decades, and all you had to do was look up and see that the clouds being formed were unnatural, and those non-dissipating streaks in the sky were not contrails but chemtrails.

For example, in a declassified document, a U.S. document details what was called “Operation Popeye,” which involved cloud-seeding during the Vietnam War to increase the potency and longevity of their monsoon seasons.

The fact is the world governments, militaries, mad scientists, and private interests and conglomerates have been regularly messing with God’s creation for a very long time. Whenever it rains at certain times here in northern Indiana the rain smells bad, like some kind of metal, perhaps this silver iodine, or aluminum, calcium carbonate, or perhaps plastic kind of. The point is, it’s totally abnormal; and even as a small child I knew something was off but never knew why.

A good resource to check out is Geoengineering Watch.

God only knows how much more severe storms and “natural disasters” this has already created, and how many more it will create; not to mention the famine that is going be created here because of it, potential disease from contamination, and so on.

[18] And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth. [19] And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

Revelation 11:18-19

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Is It Just A Coincidence That A Magnitude “4.8” Earthquake Hit Our Largest Metropolitan Area Just Days Before “4/8”?

April 7, 2024 by Michael

Oh, is this a question that I am not supposed to be asking? Following the earthquake that shook up the Big Apple on Friday, a lot of people were suggesting that it seemed really weird that a magnitude “4.8” earthquake would hit our largest metropolitan area just days before the Great American Eclipse of 2024 passes over the United States on “4/8”. It isn’t as if New York regularly experiences these sorts of quakes. In fact, it is being reported that this was the largest earthquake in New York City since 1884. So the truth is that this was a very rare occurrence. And we are just supposed to believe that this extremely rare earthquake that just happened to be precisely magnitude 4.8 has absolutely nothing to do with the Great American Eclipse on April 8th?

Okay…

Over the weekend, so many people wrote me about this.

So I decided to write an article about it.

It turns out that the war between Israel and Hamas was being discussed at the UN at the exact moment that the earthquake hit…

At the United Nations in Midtown Manhattan, a Security Council address on the Israel-Gaza conflict was interrupted as cameras began shuddering.

That is certainly very interesting.

And we have also learned that the earthquake struck very close to a location in New Jersey known as “Lebanon”…

A rare earthquake rocked the New York City area Friday morning, swaying buildings and sending terrified residents into the streets — the strongest temblor to strike near the Big Apple in 140 years.

City officials quickly warned people of the danger of potential aftershocks — which began in the early afternoon in New Jersey, a report said.

The preliminary 4.8-magnitude earthquake struck near Lebanon, NJ, around 10:23 a.m. and was potentially felt by more than 42 million people, according to the US Geological Survey.

When the war in the Middle East goes to the next level, southern Lebanon will be one of the key battlefields.

It is also being reported that the epicenter of the earthquake was a place called “Whitehouse Station”…

The epicenter of the earthquake was in Whitehouse Station, Hunterdon County, at 10:23 a.m.

That is certainly weird.

And as I pointed out to my core supporters on Friday, Donald Trump actually owns a golf course that is approximately 7 miles away from the epicenter of the earthquake…

Donald Trump’s New Jersey golf course was rocked by a 2.0 magnitude aftershock from the 4.8 earthquake that shook the Northeast on Friday morning, with residents warning tremors could last a week.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reported a quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8, centered near Lebanon, New Jersey, about 50 miles west of New York City at 10.23am and was felt by more than 42 million people.

The Trump National Golf Club Bedminster is less than seven miles from the epicenter of the quake and was rocked by an aftershock hours later – it is unclear if the club sustained any damage.

Interestingly, this quake occurred exactly 7 months before the presidential election happens on November 5th.

So the epicenter of the earthquake was in “Whitehouse Station”, and a man from New York that owns a golf course that is 7 miles away from the epicenter will be one of the candidates for president on election day exactly 7 months after the earthquake.

And all of this happened the day after the Statue of Liberty was struck by lightning.

Yes, there is a possibility this is just one really long string of incredibly bizarre coincidences.

And a lot of people are trying to make that argument.  But I am not buying it.

I think that God has been trying to get our attention.

But most of the population is not listening.

On Monday, the eclipse that many of us have been waiting to see for more than 7 years will finally be here.

Of course it isn’t just people like us that have been anticipating this eclipse. NASA will be firing three rockets toward the eclipse on April 8th, for some reason CERN selected that specific day to fire up the Large Hadron Collider, and a state of emergency has been declared in many areas that will be along the path of totality.

And as Trey Smith has pointed out, the U.S. Space Command logo actually bears a striking resemblance to the giant “X” over America that will be completed by the Great American Eclipse of 2024 on April 8th…

As I discussed earlier today, having a giant “X” painted in the skies over America that intersects directly in the middle of the New Madrid fault zone is probably not a good sign.

Right now, speculation about this eclipse has reached a fever pitch on social media, and some people are even suggesting that what is happening in the heavens is making them feel ill…

One person said: “Been feeling physically sick for a few days now and I feel like it’s because of the Mercury retrograde and the upcoming solar eclipse. Does anyone else feel off/sick these days?” while another said: “Any of u also experiencing headache bc of the solar eclipse??”

One user said they had been feeling “wiped out”, writing: “A lot of people talking about the Total Solar Eclipse and Full moon… but us anyone else actually FEELING it?… This just has me wiped out feeling weird “. Another claimed it had thrown her menstrual cycle off and their period was now “synced” with the eclipse.

Other social media users revealed they’ve been battling insomnia too, one user said: “Anyone else suffering from weird insomnia, no appetite and other weird s**t that can’t be explained? Someone told me the eclipse might have something to do with it but I don’t get how.”

Personally, I think that what a lot of those people are experiencing is just being caused by anxiety.

As for what may or may not happen on April 8th, I am not expecting any sort of a major disaster or emergency to happen on that specific day.

But I could be wrong.

We shall see.

It is entirely possible that something could happen.

But the main point of April 8th is going to be what is going on in the heavens.

I believe that this eclipse is a sign, a warning and a threshold.

It is what is going to happen during the days, weeks and months after April 8th that people should be concerned about.

Of course most of the population does not believe that April 8th is any sort of a warning at all.

Most of them think that the eclipse does not have any sort of special significance, and once it has passed most of them will just keep doing what they always do.

Ship attacked outside of Yemen, vessels warned to ‘exercise caution’

By Reuters  Published April 7, 2024, 9:20 a.m. ET

CAIRO, April 7 — British security firm Ambrey said it had received information indicating that a vessel was attacked on Sunday in the Gulf of Aden about 102 nautical miles southwest of Mukalla in Yemen.

“Vessels in the vicinity were advised to exercise caution and report any suspicious activity,” the firm said. It did not say who was responsible for the attack or give further details.

Separately, a missile landed near a vessel in the Gulf of Aden on Sunday but there was no damage to the ship or injuries to crew in the incident, 59 nautical miles southwest of the Yemeni port of Aden, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency said.

“The Master of the vessel reports a missile impacted the water in close proximity to the vessel’s port quarter,” UKMTO said in an advisory note. “No damage to the vessel reported and crew reported safe,” it added.

It did not say who fired the missile or give further details.

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi militants have staged months of attacks on shipping in the Red Sea region in support of Palestinians in the Gaza war.

The attacks have disrupted global shipping through the Suez Canal, forcing firms to re-route to longer and more expensive journeys around southern Africa.

The United States and Britain have launched strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen.

BRICS is the largest buyer of gold in 2023 as members accumulated tons of the precious metal, reported the World Gold Council. China alone purchased 225 tons of gold while Russia, India, Brazil, and South Africa came next in line. Reports suggest that BRICS could back their soon-to-be-released currency with gold to take on the US dollar.

In addition, Russia announced on Thursday that it is now doubling its accumulation of gold and local currencies moving forward. The country’s Finance Minister Anton Siluanov confirmed that they will double the acquisition of both gold and foreign currencies. The gold and foreign currency accumulation will start from April 5 to May 7, 2024.

The development comes at a time when BRICS is looking to stop using the US dollar for cross-border transactions. Read here to know how many sectors in the US will be affected if BRICS ditches the dollar for trade.

For second time in less than a week, a Chinese national was caught on a US military base...what are they doing there?

by: Pat Droney 2024-04-03 Source: Law Enforcement Today Op

TWENTYNINE PALMS, CA - Less than one week after a Chinese national was caught trespassing at a Marine base in the El Centro Sector in California, as reported by Law Enforcement Today, a report comes out of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center at Twentynine Palms, also in California, that a Chinese national attempted to drive onto the base.

Military.com reported that last week, the Chinese national was able to make it past gate guards but was immediately apprehended by military police, Marine Corps officials told the outlet.

According to Marine Corps spokesman Maj. Joshua Pena, "At approximately 12:45 p.m. on March 27, 2024, an individual attempted to access Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, California, without valid identification.

“Despite being prompted to exit at the Condor Gate by installation security, the individual proceeded onto the installation without authorization. Military law enforcement were immediately notified and detained the individual,” Pena continued. “They then notified and transferred custody to Customs and Border Patrol (CBP).”

Military.com said the Condor Gate entrance is adjacent to a military housing complex and within sight of an elementary school.

In a March 29 post on X, Chief Patrol Agent Gregory Bovino with CBP confirmed the suspect was in the U.S. illegally. No further information was provided.

Why would two military-aged Chinese males enter US military bases within a couple hundred miles of each other within a matter of days? Nobody knows, but it cannot be good given the current state of relations between the U.S. and China.

In September, the Wall Street Journal reported that over 100 Chinese nationals had posed as tourists over recent years to gain access to military bases and other sensitive sites, citing information from U.S. officials who believe the trend is “espionage-related.”

For example, in 2020, Chinese nationals attempted to forcibly gain access to Fort Wainwright, Alaska, claiming they had “reservations” at the base hotel. Meanwhile, another group of Chinese nationals illegally entered a naval air station in Key West, Florida, to “take photos.”

Since Joe Biden hung out the “Welcome to the USA” shingle when he was installed into office in January 2021, over 140,000 Chinese have illegally entered the country, a majority of them military-aged males, according to Just The News.

A majority of the Chinese nationals illegally entering the U.S. at the southwest border are doing so through California; at the northern border, a majority are entering through New York, according to CBP data.

The numbers have increased each year since 2021, with 23,471 Chinese nationals entering the U.S. nationwide. In 2022, the number increased to 27,756 and exploded to 53,700 in 2023, nearly doubling in two years. For FY-2024, which started in October, 36,912 Chinese nationals were apprehended through February, extrapolating to almost 90,000 for this fiscal year. In December 2023 alone, 8,518 illegal Chinese aliens were caught entering the U.S. Those numbers do not include so-called “gotaways,” which makes the actual number higher.

Of those Chinese aliens caught entering from Mexico, a majority were caught in California, totaling over 35,000, CBP data showed. By comparison, in FY 2021, “only” 263 Chinese were apprehended. By FY-2024 YTD (as of February), 22,098 have been apprehended entering through California. Texas has the second-greatest number, with over 26,000 apprehended during the same period.

Officials told Just The News that nearly all Chinese nationals apprehended are single adults, the overwhelming majority of whom are military-aged males.

In the Twentynine Palms case, US Customs and Border Protection told Military.com that the agency doesn’t comment on specific cases but confirmed the suspect was taken to a nearby station for processing following the transfer of custody from military police.

“The fact is we are enforcing the law, and regardless of nationality, there are consequences for those who fail to use lawful pathways,” the official said. “Individuals encountered at the border are screened and vetted, and those without a legal basis to stay are removed.”

The incident at Twentynine Palms comes less than two months after a 10-year-old, Ryker Frost, whose father is in the Marine Corps, was struck by a car driven by an illegal alien and killed at the same base. The accident occurred as military police officers pursued an unauthorized entry at the base’s main gate.

Katie Cherkasky, an attorney representing Gunnery Sgt. Max Frost and his wife Arielle, who have filed a Federal Torts Act claim, said the family is concerned that despite their son’s death, no new safety measures have been put in place at the entry to the base. The Feb. 16 crash also injured the couple’s two other sons.

“There’s a lot of issues with the way that this ultimately happened that made it foreseeable that this would be an issue that people would be able to run through the gate,” Cherkasky said.

Since January 2021, we have seen countless Americans killed, assaulted, robbed, raped, and victimized by illegal aliens. The fact that we have let tens of thousands of military-aged Chinese males enter the country who are likely up to no good may make those numbers pale in comparison.

Sleep well, America…Biden’s got your back.

There Will Be “Blood Moon Purim Eclipses” For Three Years In A Row In 2024, 2025 And 2026

April 2, 2024 by Michael

Is it just a coincidence that “blood moon eclipses” are occurring on Purim for three years in a row just as a great war erupts in the Middle East? Yesterday, one of my readers wrote to me and pointed out a video where someone was talking about this. I had previously written about the “blood moon eclipse” that happened during the second day of Purim on March 25th of this year, but I had not heard that there would be “blood moon eclipses” on Purim in 2025 and 2026 too. So I started to do some research to confirm whether this is true or not.

I did a Google search for Purim in 2025, and this is what I found…

Purim in 2025 is on Friday, March 14. Purim is always celebrated for 2 days, so it will continue till March 15.

So then I went to Wikipedia and I discovered that there will be a lunar eclipse on March 14th, 2025…

A total lunar eclipse will take place on Friday, March 14, 2025, the first of two total lunar eclipses in 2025. The Moon will take place near apogee during this eclipse, making it appear smaller than usual.

This blood moon eclipse will happen on the first day of Purim next year, and it will be visible from Jerusalem.

Having confirmed that there will be a “blood moon Purim eclipse” in 2025, I asked Google when Purim would be in 2026.

According to hebcal.com, the first day of Purim in 2026 begins at sundown on March 2nd and it ends at sundown on March 3rd…

Purim for Hebrew Year 5786 begins at sundown on Monday, 2 March 2026 and ends at nightfall on Tuesday, 3 March 2026 .

And according to Wikipedia there will be a lunar eclipse on March 3rd, 2026…

A total lunar eclipse will take place on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, the first of two lunar eclipses in 2026.

This “blood moon Purim eclipse” will complete the set.

As far as I know, we have never seen something like this happen for three years in a row.

So what does all of this mean?

I don’t know.

But I will give you some of my thoughts.

In the Book of Esther, we read about the origins of Purim.

The enemies of Israel thought that they were finally going to defeat the Jewish people, but in the end the Jewish people got the upper hand on their enemies.

And I think that a similar scenario is playing out today.

Iran, Syria, Hezbollah and other Iranian-backed groups in the region have been preparing for war with Israel for years.

Collectively, their forces greatly outnumber Israeli forces.

And they possess vast numbers of missiles.

In fact, Hezbollah alone has an arsenal of at least 150,000 highly sophisticated missiles ready to fire at Israel.

Yes, Israel has the Iron Dome, but that system can only handle a limited number of targets at a time.

If thousands of missiles start raining down on Israeli cities all at once, Israel will be overwhelmed.

Right now, the world is waiting to see how Iran will respond to Israel’s stunning airstrike on Damascus on Monday.

Iran’s supreme leader has told the world that Israel “will be punished by our brave men”…

Several of Iran’s most powerful officials, including “supreme leader” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, vowed revenge against Israel following an airstrike in Damascus, Syria, on Monday that eliminated a senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) leader.

“The evil regime will be punished by our brave men. We will make them regret this crime and other ones, by God’s will,” Khamenei proclaimed, according to the Iranian state-run PressTV propaganda network on Tuesday. Khamenei referred to Israel as “usurping and despicable.”

That makes it sound like Iran will take revenge directly instead of relying on proxies to do their dirty work this time.

Hezbollah is also warning that there will be “punishment and revenge”…

‘This crime will certainly not pass without the enemy receiving punishment and revenge,’ Hezbollah said in a statement.

We shall see what happens.

If the response is too severe, it could set in motion a chain of events that nobody will be able to control.

Already, one expert is warning that we have reached a point of “all-out war between Israel and the resistance axis”…

Meanwhile, Bassam Abu Abdallah, who heads the Damascus Centre for Strategic Research and is close to the Syrian government, said that before Monday ‘there were rules of engagement, but now it’s an all-out war between Israel and the resistance axis’.

The course of this war was fundamentally altered this week, and it would be difficult to overstate the anger that we are witnessing in the Islamic world at this moment.

On Tuesday, there were enormous flag-burning protests all over the Middle East…

Huge American flag-burning protests have erupted across the Middle East as Iranian protesters gather to condemn the Israeli airstrike against Iran’s consulate in Syria on Monday.

Photos and videos show large groups of protesters shouting anti-Israeli and anti-US slogans in Tehran while burning US and Israeli flags in a show of frustration and anger.

At some point in the coming months, I believe that a breaking point will come.

If the combined forces of Iran, Syria and Hezbollah start pouring toward northern Israel and if thousands of missiles start raising down on Israeli cities, the government of Israel will almost certainly respond with overwhelming force.

We are talking about an apocalyptic scenario that nobody wants to see.

And right now we are just one step away from such a conflict.

When all-out war erupts in the Middle East, we are all going to be deeply affected. The price of oil will go absolutely nuts, and massive unrest will flare up in large cities all over the globe.

We should pray for peace, but I don’t see any way that an apocalyptic Middle East war is going to be avoided at this point.

'At least six Russian warplanes destroyed, eight damaged and 20 personnel wounded or killed' as Ukraine stages major drone strike on Putin's airfields

Ukraine fired more than 50 drones at Russian territory, Russia's MoD said

If confirmed, the scale of the damage to Russian warplanes would represent one of the biggest blows of the two-year war to Vladimir Putin's air force

By Chris Jewers and Will Stewart

Published: 06:11 EDT, 5 April 2024 | Updated: 12:18 EDT, 5 April 2024

Ukraine has destroyed at least six Russian warplanes, damaged eight more and wounded or killed 20 personnel in a major overnight drone attack on Vladimir Putin's airfields, Kyiv said on Friday.

Launching one of its largest overnight attacks in weeks, Ukraine fired more than 50 drones at Russian territory, according to Russia's defence ministry.

Among the targets was the Engels-2 base in in the southern Rostov region, home to Putin's prized Tu-95 and Tu-22 nuclear bombers.

More than 60 explosions were heard in the Rostov region as Russian air defences fended off an attack on Morozovsk military airfield, scene of the heaviest assault.

A video showed a woman's shock at the moment an electricity power station was hit.

There were more than ten explosions in Yeisk, Krasnodar region, reported local Telegram channels - also the location of a military airfield.

A security source in Kyiv told France's AFP news agency that an attack on the Morozovsk air base in Russia's southern Rostov region had destroyed at least six Russian planes and 'another eight were heavily damaged'.

'This is an important special operation that will significantly reduce the combat potential of the Russians,' the source said, adding that the attack was carried out by the SBU security service and the military.

Some 20 Russian personnel were killed or wounded, it was alleged.

Frontline bombers - Su-24, Su-24M, and Su-34 - are known to be routinely based at the airfield. They have been used to strike at Ukraine during the war.

As of April 4, some 26 Su-34 fighters and three Su-35 warplanes were stationed at the airbase, according to OSINT reports.

It has been reported that the SBU secret service was behind the kamikaze drone strike along with the Ukrainian armed forces.

'The results of the joint special operation are amazing - at least six Russian military aircraft were destroyed, and another eight received significant damage,' a source told RBC Ukraine.

If confirmed it would be one of the biggest blows of the war to Vladimir Putin's air force.

There was no immediate response from Russia and AFP news agency said it had been unable to verify the claims.

Russia said 44 of the 53 drones Kyiv fired overnight targeted the southern Rostov region, which sits just across the border from Ukraine and is home to a number of major military sites, including its command headquarters for the offensive.

'During the night and on the morning of April 5, the Kyiv regime tried to commit several terrorist attacks with aerial drones which were foiled,' the defence ministry said.

Rostov governor Vasily Golubev said a drone attack on the Morozovsk district, where the airbase is located, had caused 'insignificant damage' to a power station that had cut electricity supplies to around 600 residents.

He also reported windows were blown out in an apartment building but made no mention of the air base.

Russia rarely comments on Ukrainian claims of successful strikes. Kyiv has stepped up its aerial attacks on Russian territory in recent months, targeting both military sites and energy facilities in a bid to disrupt Russia's supply of fuel and equipment for its invasion.

On Tuesday, Ukrainian drones hit the central Tatarstan region - around 680 miles from the countries' shared border - in one of the deepest Ukrainian attacks of the two-year war.

Kyiv said the strike hit a major oil refinery and a factory assembling explosive drones.

Other Ukrainian drone attacks in the early hours of Friday targeted the Belgorod and Kursk border regions, as well as Saratov and Krasnodar.

In Saratov, the governor said a drone had targeted Engels, a city around 300 miles from the border that is home to a major Russian air base that has previously been hit.

Ukraine's air force meanwhile said Russia launched five missiles and 13 drones at its territory overnight.

Kyiv said it downed the 13 drones, but did not say anything about the missiles, which targeted the northeastern Kharkiv region.

Russian-installed authorities in areas of Ukraine occupied by Moscow's forces also reported Ukrainian strikes on Friday.

Five people were injured, two seriously, in a drone attack on the Russian-controlled part of the southern Kherson region, while seven were injured in a strike on Gorlivka in the eastern Donetsk region, Moscow-appointed officials said.

On the battlefield, Russian forces are seeking to press their advantage with Ukraine facing shortages of both manpower and ammunition amid delays to the delivery of Western aid.

Russian-installed officials have claimed Moscow's forces are advancing on Chasiv Yar, a town in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region.

Both Ukrainian and Russian military bloggers with links to the armed forces said Friday that Russian troops had reached the outskirts of the town.

Largest fresh egg producer in U.S. finds bird flu in chickens at Texas and Michigan plants

Updated on: April 3, 2024 / 8:09 PM EDT / AP

The largest producer of fresh eggs in the U.S. said Tuesday it had temporarily halted production at a Texas plant after bird flu was found in chickens, and officials said the virus had also been detected at a poultry facility in Michigan.

In Texas, Ridgeland, Mississippi-based Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. said in a statement that approximately 1.6 million laying hens and 337,000 pullets, about 3.6% of its total flock, were destroyed after the infection, avian influenza, was found at the facility in Parmer County, Texas.

The plant is on the Texas-New Mexico border in the Texas Panhandle about 85 miles southwest of Amarillo and about 370 miles northwest of Dallas.

"The Company continues to work closely with federal, state and local government officials and focused industry groups to mitigate the risk of future outbreaks and effectively manage the response," according to the statement. "Cal-Maine Foods is working to secure production from other facilities to minimize disruption to its customers."

The company said there is no known bird flu risk associated with eggs that are currently on the market and no eggs have been recalled. Eggs that are properly handled and cooked are safe to eat, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The announcement by Cal-Maine comes a day after state health officials said a person had been diagnosed with bird flu after being in contact with cows presumed to be infected, and that the risk to the public remains low.

In Michigan, Michigan State University's Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory has detected bird flu in a commercial poultry facility in Ionia County, according to the Michigan's Department of Agriculture and Rural Development.

The county is about 100 miles northwest of Detroit.

The department said it received confirmation of the disease Monday from the lab and that it is the fourth time since 2022 that the disease was detected at a commercial facility in Michigan.

Department spokesperson Jennifer Holton said Tuesday that state law prohibits the department from disclosing the type of poultry at the facility in Ionia.

The facility has been placed under quarantine and the department does not anticipate any disruptions to supply chains across the state, Holton said.

The human case in Texas marks the first known instance globally of a person catching this version of bird flu from a mammal, federal health officials said.

Dairy cows in Texas and Kansas were reported to be infected with bird flu last week - and federal agriculture officials later confirmed infections in a Michigan dairy herd that had recently received cows from Texas.

The company said Cal-Maine sells most of its eggs in the Southwestern, Southeastern, Midwestern and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States.

Pestilences And Earthquakes

April 3, 2024 by Michael

We are living in an era of endless disasters. Over the past several years, we have been hit with one thing after another, and the pace of events seems to have picked up steam in 2024. Just think of all the things we have seen in recent days. There was the historic terror attack in Russia, then the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed, and then Israel’s strike on a building right next to Iran’s embassy in Damascus threatened to spark a major regional war. Less than 24 hours ago, a catastrophic earthquake hit Taiwan, but that is already starting to fade from the news cycle because so much else is happening right now.

In this article, I want to focus on two things: pestilences and earthquakes.

The bird flu plague has already killed millions upon millions of birds all over the planet, but now it has made a major resurgence in the United States.

In fact, the largest egg producer in the U.S. is “temporarily” closing a facility in Texas due to a local outbreak…

The largest producer of fresh eggs in the United States says it has temporarily closed one of its facilities in Texas after highly pathogenic avian influenza, otherwise known as H5N1 bird flu, wiped out nearly two million birds.

Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. said one of its facilities in Parmer County “tested positive for highly pathogenic avian influenza, resulting in depopulation of approximately 1.6 million laying hens and 337,000 pullets, or approximately 3.6% of the Company’s total flock as of March 2, 2024.”

Just like that, nearly two million more birds are gone.

Egg prices have already been spiking, and we are being warned that they will soon go up even more…

Egg prices have now been steadily rising for months, and your omelette could become even more expensive as poultry farms around the country deal with an outbreak of bird flu.

The average price of a dozen Grade A large eggs was $3 in February, according to the latest Consumer Price Index, up from around $2 in the fall.

Alarmingly, this time around it isn’t just birds that are catching the disease.

The USDA is telling us that dairy cows in several U.S. states have been recently infected…

Bird flu has been confirmed in dairy cows across several states, with the USDA saying Monday it has been found in New Mexico and five additional herds in Texas.

In addition, we have learned that “three pet cats” in Texas have died after catching the bird flu…

Meanwhile, three pet cats have died from bird flu after catching the disease on dairy farms in Texas, according to reports — as fears are raised that infected animals living near humans could spread the disease to people.

Mammals all over the globe have started to get infected, but up until now the bird flu has not posed a serious threat to humans.

Is that about to change?

A dairy worker in Texas has tested positive for H5N1, and that represents only the second case ever recorded in the United States…

A Texas dairy worker has tested positive for the avian flu, marking the first identified human case of an illness in the U.S. that has sickened cattle across several states over the past few weeks.

The infection, only the second human case of H5N1 ever recorded in the country, is worrying public health experts who for decades have cautioned that avian flu could pose a serious threat.

Hopefully this will turn out to be just an isolated incident.

But the CDC is telling us that testing has shown that H5N1 has mutated into a form that could potentially spread more easily among people…

The strain of bird flu that infected a person in Texas has mutated to spread more easily, officials say — amid growing alarm the disease could spread to more people.

The CDC said tests on the H5N1 sample showed it had a mutation that was ‘known to be associated with viral adaptation to mammalian hosts’ – but insisted the mutations were minor and the overall risk to the public was low.

This is a bombshell.

If H5N1 starts spreading from person to person on a widespread basis, that will be far more serious than anything that we have experienced over the last several years.

I hope that you understand what I am saying.

Meanwhile, the number of confirmed cases of dengue fever in Brazil already exceeds 1.5 million…

An unprecedented outbreak of dengue fever is surging across Brazil, as the nation battles an epidemic that is straining resources and spreading well beyond the areas traditionally affected.

In cities across the vast country, hospitals and doctors are being stretched to the limit as more than 1.5 million people have already caught the virus – also known as “breakbone fever” – this year.

Dengue fever is an issue in Brazil every year, but they have never seen anything even close to this.

Now let me switch gears and talk about earthquakes for a bit.

Less than 24 hours ago, we witnessed the worst earthquake in Taiwan in 25 years…

Taiwan was struck by its strongest earthquake in 25 years on Wednesday when a 7.4 magnitude tremor struck the island’s eastern coast, collapsing buildings, killing at least four people and triggering tsunami warnings across the region that were later lifted, CNN reported.

The tsunami warnings also prompted airlines and airports to suspend flights, which were later resumed.

CNN reported that the powerful tremors that rocked Taiwan morning have damaged 125 buildings across the island, according to the National Fire Agency (NFA).

That quake was later downgraded to 7.2, but it sure shook a lot of people up.

At one point, a building that is 10 stories high started to fall over as those in the streets nearby ran for cover…

A group of terrified Taiwanese citizens looked to be heading to an early grave as a huge earthquake sent a 10-storey building hurtling towards them – only for the structure to grind to a halt at a near-45-degree angle.

Shocking footage captured by security cameras showed the moment the red brick building shook violently and began to fall, spraying dust and debris into the street below as the people below sprinted for safety or dove into their cars for protection.

This is yet another example of how unstable our planet is becoming.

In recent months we have seen so much unusual seismic activity all over the globe, but most Americans haven’t been too concerned about this because it hasn’t really affected us too much.

But there has been unusual shaking here in the U.S. too.

For instance, earlier this year there was a swarm of more than 270 earthquakes near Reno, Nevada…

Residents of the south Reno area have likely noticed a few earthquakes in the last couple weeks. The Nevada Seismological Laboratory (NSL), a unit within the University of Nevada, Reno, has identified and located over 270 small magnitude earthquakes in the last 30 days so far. The largest related quake to date has been a magnitude 3.5 in the afternoon of Jan. 28 that was felt and heard through much of Reno.

Groups of small- to moderate-sized earthquakes, such as those recently occurring in south Reno, are often called a “swarm.”

“We have termed this swarm the South Reno Swarm,” Kyren Bogolub, a network seismologist with the NSL, said.

Do you know what else is south of Reno, Nevada?

A volcanic field known as “Steamboat Springs” is located in the area, but it has been quiet for a very long time. The following information comes from Wikipedia…

Steamboat Springs is a small volcanic field of rhyolitic lava domes and flows in western Nevada, located south of Reno. There is extensive geothermal activity in the area, including numerous hot springs, steam vents, and fumaroles.

Is that volcanic field starting to wake up?

Let’s hope not.

But as seismic activity increases all over the globe, it is inevitable that the U.S. will experience great shaking as well.

In addition to natural disasters, our world is being troubled by wars, pestilences, famines, economic problems and political turmoil.

A period of great chaos has arrived, and I am entirely convinced that the pace of events will accelerate even more during the months ahead.

PRIMING SOCIETY TO EMBRACE THE BEAST SYSTEM, RIGHT UNDER THE NOSE OF A SLEEPING CHURCH…ARTICLE 38, OVERT PAGANISM IN OUR MODERN CHURCHES

April 2, 2024 by SkyWatch Editor

When considering the aforementioned “Hallelujah! Christians Pole Dance for Jesus in Texas,” these authors wonder: How many of these men and women know about the associations between today’s stripper pole and the ancient rituals to the Canaanite goddess of fertility and erotic love? Asherah—mother of Baal, wife and sister of El—was worshiped by pagans in the Old Testament; her presence in a community was marked with tree groves. In and around the trees were idols of Baal as well as tall, wooden “Asherah pole” idols, which God declared throughout the Old Testament must be burned or torn down (see Deuteronomy 12:3; 16:21; Judges 6:25, 28, 30; 2 Kings 18:4). Scholars acknowledge that these idols represented the female body at some point upon its engraving, but they were often also phallic in nature and shape, rendering an idol that celebrated all forms of deviant consummation. Do Christians who “spin without sin” know that today’s “dance” takes Asherah worship to the next level with a living, breathing body upon the pole of a pagan goddess of sex? Are they aware that this “exercise” was the prostitutes’ launching pad for demonic, orgiastic ecstasy-worship in the groves of God’s sworn enemies?

These Christians are just lost…and how can the lost lead souls to salvation?

Is it any wonder that the lost see us the way they do? Are we seriously still confused about why the media depicts us as a bunch of hypocritical, bungling clowns? When research organizations like the Barna Group report that one out of three young adults reject Christianity  Are webecause of hypocrisy they see in the Church, and about 50 percent of them “still feel the Church cannot answer their questions…[because of] flaws or gaps in [our] teachings,”[i] do we feel any responsibility at all to react? surprised when we hear about the mass exodus the Church of the West is facing today, or the literal doubling of the number of people identifying as atheists in the last decade (as the Pew Research Center reports [ii])? Is there any shock value to the fact that 32 percent of American Christians left their churches and didn’t return when the pandemic forced religious gatherings to close the doors for a month? [iii]

It’s shocking from every angle, and it only mounts. Earlier we looked at statistics that showed how far away from core Christian doctrines that Western Christians have wandered, but by further reflecting on “deeds vs. creeds,” the scandalous behavior we’re engaging in, the idolatry we’re tolerating, we have been building to a climax. It’s not just about whether every Christian believes in total biblical inerrancy or whether some allow abortion to be morally acceptable under some circumstances. As of September 22, 2020, according to the American Worldview Inventory conducted through the Culture Research Center at Arizona Christian University, only 6 percent of all adults and 2 percent of all Millennials hold a truly biblical worldview accountable to the most basic essentials of Christian doctrine—such as the inerrancy of Scripture, the necessity of prayer and worship, the belief that Satan is real, or the acknowledgment that sin exists and it is bad. Nevertheless, this study indicates that 61 percent of Millennials identify as Christians. [iv]

This automatically introduces the logical question (and we ask with genuine respect): What are you, if you identify as Christian but don’t believe in anything Christianity teaches about the reality of sin and the need to be cleansed of it through a Savior described in a Bible you also don’t trust to be true in the first place?

Technically, this has been answered before, over a century ago, by world-renowned New Testament scholar and Princeton Theological Seminary professor, J. Gresham Machen. All of the “Christianity” we see in the West today is nothing more than veiled liberalism—and by using “liberalism” here, we are referring not to the similar-sounding label in politics, but to school of thought under the same name within theological study. The application of liberal conviction, as defined under the umbrella of liberalism as a theology, found its roots in the rationalism of the Enlightenment era, which recognized humanity’s ability to reason as the new empirical authority over the words of the Bible. If something defied reason, as it was defined by each individual, it simply “wasn’t true.” Liberalists (though they were not called that at the time) approached Scripture with a postmodernist, “What’s true to me?” application and either disregarded everything else or chalked the rest of the Word of God up to allegorical suggestion, rendering Christianity into a mere subjective experience. More simply put, liberalism is what happens when people call themselves “Christian” but “interpret away” the bits of the Bible they’re uncomfortable with. Today, we hear it called “progressive Christianity,” but before it got cute, it was acknowledged as a slap in the face of God and strengthened such false teachings as antinomianism (the idea that God’s grace outweighs our responsibility to live righteously; the opposite of legalism).

Machen’s writing, which was a shameless throat punch to liberalism, demanded that those who championed human reasoning use their own capabilities of logic to question the senselessness of their Christianity. By introducing new liberties to theology that contradicted basic essentials of Scripture, they repackaged their religion into an illogical, irrational box with more limitations on its own claims to reason than Christianity had prior. He wasn’t shy in his attack against the logic (or lack thereof) of only accepting what parts of a religion gives a person happy feelings. In his Christianity and Liberalism, after devoting several pages to exposing the inconsistency and absurdity of the logic liberalists so championed, Machen summarized how this approach to Jesus always leads back to the black hole of unfulfillment: “Religion cannot be made joyful simply by looking on the bright side of God. For a one-sided God is not a real God, and it is the real God alone who can satisfy the longing of the soul.… Seek joy alone, then, seek joy at any cost, and you will not find it.”[v]

Though he wasn’t the only theologian who has skillfully and convincingly criticized the ludicrousness of liberalism (which he occasionally referred to as the alternative “modernism”), there is a reason these authors chose to highlight Machen’s work at this point in this project. He called the kettle black in a way his contemporaries hadn’t: While other scholars were attempting to entertain the massively popular liberalism shift long enough to sort out which new “theologies” were reliable and which weren’t, Machen recognized the whole of liberalism as a completely different religion altogether: “[L]iberalism not only is a different religion from Christianity but belongs in a totally different class of religions.”[vi]

If Machen were around to lend his thoughts to the mess we’re in now, his golden response to the kind of postmodern evangelicals reporting their beliefs to the Ligonier Ministries survey just discussed would likely be disregarded as an overly conservative voice from the minority. Nevertheless, for the Remnant Church who cares, his historical genius lingers on the page forever…or until it’s outlawed by the global system we’re helping to form and ends up in the “propaganda burn piles” the chaos in the West is currently reserving for our Bibles. For now, we still have gems like this:

In trying to remove from Christianity everything that could possibly be objected to…in trying to bribe off the enemy by those concessions which the enemy most desires, the apologist has really abandoned what he started out to defend. Here as in many other departments of life it appears that the things that are sometimes thought to be hardest to defend are also the things that are most worth defending. [vii]

Bottom line: A “picked apart” and “partially true” Christianity is not Christianity. It is a completely “different religion” from Christianity. It is—once again—a cult, regardless of how “normal” it looks on the outside.

Sometimes it becomes a bigger concern than whether one church removes Jesus to hail Svetovid for a weekend, or whether a group of tragically misled Christians worship provocatively. And sometimes it’s not “normal looking” from any angle at all. More often than we would like to admit, colossal movements spread over regions of the world that affect all Christians in a negative way.

When Progressivism Meets Emotionalism

Perhaps the most glaring example is some of the witchcraft and occultism that had global attention during a well-known revival that drew multiple millions of people all over the world in the 1990s and dramatically and permanently changed the landscape of Sunday morning worship practices in the West. Because there was actually some calculable good that came from this revival—and because several of those who perpetuated the more negative aspects of it have since repented of their involvement—we will sensitively refer to this period in time as the “Charisma Revival.” (As a quick disclaimer: These authors have studied the Charisma Revival throughout the years, and we want to be clear that the Lord certainly met many seekers at those altars. The movement was popular enough that readers may recognize which revival we’re writing about. If readers of this article were among those who attended and had a real encounter with God, we are not questioning the authenticity of your experience; we merely want to look at some of the questionable origins and goings-on of the movements that began in the area at that time.)

Some may wonder why, when so much of the discussion about Protestantism has taken place across all denominations, we’re about to look back at a movement that was primarily Pentecostal/Charismatic. There are three reasons:

Demographically, if we don’t count Catholicism, with approximately 584 million members, Pentecostals and Charismatics make up the largest population of Christianity not just in the West, but around the globe, accounting for 26.7 percent of the world’s Christian population (8.5 percent of the human population).[viii] Since the Catholic Church represents 50.1 percent of the Christian population of the world, that makes the remaining 26.7 percent of Pentecostals and Charismatics an enormous part of the Body. As a result, though not all readers are Pentecostal or Charismatic, many likely are, which makes the warnings from this movement invaluable.

The Charisma Revival, regardless of denominations, stands as a great example of what can happen when the Church forsakes her True Love (Jesus) and goes in her own direction to feed emotional phenomena. The correct teachings from the Word end, worship gets insane, the lost remain lost, God’s heart breaks, and Christians lose patience waiting for their religious identity to iron itself out, so they eventually give up and leave the Church. Everyone loses.

Long-term damage inflicted upon the reputation of and theological trends within the Church can take eons to sort out. In this way, the Charisma Revival affected all Protestant denominations. It was such a grand-scale Western movement that egg was thrown on the faces of other traditional Christian faiths that were not involved, putting believers from all over the West in the uncomfortable position of answering for why their religion appeared absurd.

Lessons from the era of hype… Lessons learned the hard way.

This moment was marked by a resurgence of the “hellfire and brimstone”-style sermons similar to those of Jonathan Edwards’ “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” in the mid 1700s, but this time, the messages were reprimands for not being “fired up like the folks at those Charisma Revival churches.” These charges were often followed by the obligatory “get fired up” exhortation to which the congregants dutifully responded by demonstrating their (imitated) excitement…all for the sake of appearance. There was a lot of religious propagandizing to support the idea that this was the one, the only, and the last golden age of revival—that “God wouldn’t wait on the lazy ones,” and He would “work miracles” through those willing to “punch Satan in the face” and “reclaim our territory.” But because the Holy Spirit wasn’t truly behind all this “pulpiteering,” no real fruit was produced. True followers of God were worshiping one day, then they blinked and found themselves in a cult the next; the lost had little reason to think that cult had any legitimate answers about how to be saved.

Right from the beginning, despite some very real demonstrations of God, something just “felt off” about the Charisma Revival. Stories from that congregation involved deeply unsettling “manifestations of God,” even though there was almost never any scriptural foundation for those goings-on. This didn’t seem to bother most Church leadership, though. Many people traveled to the churches that were right in the thick of it, having been instructed by their pastors to go see what’s going on and “bring the revival back with them,” as if they had been sent to pick up a loaf of bread. (One of these authors heard that very “bring it back” command in two different churches and by two different leaders. It was like they were suggesting that their ministry staff could just fling a revival in their backpack and feed it crackers on the plane.) In our opinions, these were pastors’ efforts to try to “fix” the apathy of their home congregations because they weren’t willing to do the work it would take to see a true revival of interest in following Christ.

An angry crowd of Canadians loudly protested Justin Trudeau as he entered a shopping mall in Ontario earlier this week. Protesters held signs reading, “Trudeau 4 Treason,” and, “Communism has no home here,” and flew flags stating, “F*CK Trudeau.”

Infowars.com reports: Fired-up demonstrators also shouted expletives at the Canadian PM as police officers protected him, yelling, “You f*cking tyrant!” “Piece of f*cking shit” and “F*ck you, Trudeau!”

“Canadians have had enough,” Wide Awake Media captioned the video on X.

The video had surpassed 7 million views on X as of writing.

Zelenskyy Acquires Highgrove House, Former Residence of King Charles for £20Million

April 2, 2024

Submitted by Paul S.

Ukraine’s Zelensky is the New Owner of Highgrove House, Former Home of King Charles and Princess Diana

Royal Purchase – Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the New Owner of Highgrove House, Previously Owned by King Charles. Highgrove House, near Tetbury in Gloucestershire, served as the country residence of King Charles III even after he assumed his new role as Britain’s reigning monarch.

It was purchased in 1980 by the then Prince Charles from Maurice Macmillan, son of the former British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. During his first marriage to Diana, Princess of Wales, the family would spend weekends in Gloucestershire with Princes William and Harry, before returning to Kensington Palace.

Highgrove House, Sold to Ukraine's Zelensky for £20 Million

In 2024, King Charles III sold his residence, having owned it for 44 years. What is _at first glance surprising_ is that the new owner of the royal estate is Volodymyr Zelensky, the President of Ukraine.

Charles has been an outspoken supporter of Ukraine since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion. In February 2023, The King held an audience with Volodymyr Zelensky at Buckingham Palace. Charles III issued a strongly-worded message of support for Ukraine, in a statement marking the second anniversary of Russia’s invasion in February 2024. The unusually direct message seems to be a rallying call to keep up international assistance for Ukraine.

The war in Ukraine has been close to the King’s heart. It may explain the nature of an unusual sale of the King’s property to Volodymyr Zelensky – whom Charles III probably sees as a defender of democracy.

Pentagon launches tech to stop AI-powered killing machines from going rogue on the battlefield due to robot-fooling visual 'noise'

Pentagon innovation office wants to defend AI systems from 'adversarial attacks'

Research explores how visual 'noise' patches trick AI into fatal misidentifications

READ MORE: New rules stop Pentagon from 'building killer robots' in 'basement'

By Matthew Phelan For Dailymail.Com

Published: 19:18 EDT, 2 April 2024 | Updated: 19:27 EDT, 2 April 2024

Pentagon officials have sounded the alarm about 'unique classes of vulnerabilities for AI or autonomous systems,' which they hope new research can fix.

The program, dubbed Guaranteeing AI Robustness against Deception (GARD), has been tasked since 2022 with identifying how visual data or other electronic signals inputs for AI might be gamed by the calculated introduction of noise.

Computer scientists with one of GARD's defense contractors have experimented with kaleidoscopic patches designed to fool AI-based systems into making false IDs.

'You can essentially, by adding noise to an image or a sensor, perhaps break a downstream machine learning algorithm,' as one senior Pentagon official managing the research explained Wednesday.

The news comes as fears that the Pentagon has been 'building killer robots in the basement' have allegedly led to stricter AI rules for the US military — mandating that all systems must be approved before deployment.

'You can also with knowledge of that algorithm sometimes create physically realizable attacks,' added that official, Matt Turek, deputy director for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA's) Information Innovation Office.

Technically, it is feasible to 'trick' an AI's algorithm into mission critical errors — making the AI misidentify a variety of patterned patches or stickers for a real physical object that's not really there.

A bus packed with civilians, for example, could be misidentified as a tank by an AI, if it were tagged with the right 'visual noise,' as one national security reporter with the site ClearanceJobs proposed as an example.

Such cheap and lightweight 'noise' tactics, in short, could cause vital military AI to misclassify enemy combatants as allies, and vice versa, during a critical mission.

Researchers with the modestly budgeted GARD program have spent $51,000 investigating visual and signal noise tactics since 2022, Pentagon audits show.

What is public from their work includes a 2019 and 2020 study illustrating how visual noise, which can appear merely decorative or inconsequential to human eyes, like a 1990s 'Magic Eye' poster, can be interpreted as solid object by AI.

Computer scientists with defense contractor the MITRE Corporation managed to create visual noise that an AI mistook for apples on a grocery store shelf, a bag left behind outdoors, and even people.

'Whether that is physically realizable attacks or noise patterns that are added to AI systems,' Turek said Wednesday, 'the GARD program has built state-of-the-art defenses against those.'

'Some of those tools and capabilities have been provided to CDAO [the Defense Department's Chief Digital and AI Office],' according to Turek.

The Pentagon formed the CDAO in 2022; it serves as a hub to facilitate faster adoption of AI and related machine-learning technologies across the military.

The Department of Defense (DoD) recently updated its AI rules among 'a lot of confusion about' how it plans to use self-decision-making machines on the battlefield, according to US Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Force Development and Emerging Capabilities Michael Horowitz

Horowitz explained at an event this January that the 'directive does not prohibit the development of any [AI] systems,' but will 'make clear what is and isn't allowed' and uphold a 'commitment to responsible behavior,' as it develops lethal autonomous systems.

While the Pentagon believes the changes should ease the public's minds, some have said they are not 'convinced' by the efforts.

Mark Brakel, director of the advocacy organization Future of Life Institute (FLI), told DailyMail.com this January: 'These weapons carry a massive risk of unintended escalation.'

He explained that AI-powered weapons could misinterpret something, like a ray of sunlight, and perceive it as a threat, thus attacking foreign powers without cause, and without intentional adversarial 'visual noise.'

Brakel said the result could be devastating because 'without meaningful human control, AI-powered weapons are like the Norwegian rocket incident [a near nuclear armageddon] on steroids and they could increase the risk of accidents in hotspots such as the Taiwan Strait.'

Dailymail.com has reached out to the DoD for comment.

The DoD has been aggressively pushing to modernize its arsenal with autonomous drones, tanks, and other weapons that select and attack a target without human intervention.

Gregor Stuart Hunter in Taipei, Chi Hui Lin in Miaoli, and Jan Camenzind Broomby and Kenza Wilks in Taitung spoke to people about what they experienced in the moments after the earthquake struck:

In the first moments after the huge quake hit, Lanni Hsu grabbed her dog and her family, and fled. Running down five flights of stairs, she headed outdoors to seek safety from falling objects.

Hsu lives in Hualien, a busy tourist city on Taiwan’s east coast, where the 7.2 magnitude quake struck on Wednesday morning. The death toll stood at seven, with 700 injured and hundreds trapped under rubble.

Three people among a group of seven on an early-morning hike through the hills that surround the city were crushed to death by boulders loosened by the earthquake, officials said. Separately, a truck driver died when his vehicle was hit by a landslide as it approached a tunnel in the area.

Hualien’s people are no stranger to deadly earthquakes. Even so, this was the most frightened Hsu had ever felt, she said.

Taiwan’s strongest earthquake in 25 years has killed seven and injured at least 700, causing building collapses, power outages and landslides on the island, and sparking initial tsunami warnings in southern Japan and the Philippines.

The quake, given a magnitude of 7.2 by Taiwan’s earthquake monitoring agency and 7.4 by the US, struck close to the popular tourist city of Hualien, on Taiwan’s eastern coast, damaging buildings and trapping people amid aftershocks following the quake, which started at 7.58am.

Videos on social media showed children being rescued from collapsed residential buildings. One five-storey building in Hualien appeared heavily damaged, its first floor collapsed and the bulk of the building leaning at a 45-degree angle.

Taiwan’s Centre for Science and Technology (CST) said people and vehicles were trapped in the Dachingshui tunnel. Train lines were also damaged, and schools and workplaces were closed across large areas of the city.

Witnesses in Hualien described driving while rocks dislodged from nearby mountains fell down around them, while others rushed outside after feeling the strength of the tremors.

World War III Heats Up As The U.S. Continues To 'Poke The Bear,' Russian President Vladimir Putin Says He Is Ready For A Nuclear War

- The definition of a World War, via Britannica, is simply 'a war involving many nations of the world'

By Susan Duclos - All News Pipeline April 2, 2024

Many eyes are on the Middle East right now, but the Russia/Ukraine war is the one most likely to be the war that is going to get America nuked, in the long run.

While we continue to see headlines predicting a world war is on the horizon, I stand by my assertion that World War III already began and is ongoing. Nether NATO nor the United Nations existed before 1945. The League of Nations became the United Nations, but when created, the Soviet Union was one of the four world powers, along with the UK, The U.S. and China, that was supposed to control the UN, until the Soviet Union vetoed certain cold war issues.

The reason for that very brief history reminder is to show that all indicators of involvement in a war that had it later categorized as a World War, such as boots on the ground and actively fighting, have been expanded in large part due to technology, rapid transportation (such as weapons and ammunitions), and the ability on the part of the U.S. to browbeat and threaten other nations to abide by sanctions.

A little bit about sanctions, which historically has been an America tool. First and foremost, sanctions via blockades were previously tried in WWI and WWII, largely unsuccessful, until roughly 1950.

From 1950 to 2019, the US turned to sanctions far more often than other countries, according to a Quartz analysis of historic sanctions using the Global Sanctions Database.

Quartz | qz.com Data: Global Sanctions Database Note: The analysis considered every sanction effort by individual countries, rather than grouping collective.

The lackluster success rate for sanctions over this period has not deterred the US. Indeed, its willingness to throw its economic weight around to change other countries’ behavior has remained a constant since the 1950s.

The definition of a World War, via Britannica, is simply "a war involving many nations of the world."

Now sanctions include:

• Economic sanctions: Trade barriers, freezing assets, taking assets from one country to give to another, tariffs, naval blockades, etc....

• Diplomatic sanctions, the reduction or removal of diplomatic ties, such as embassies. These also include limiting or cancelling high-level govt visits or expelling or withdrawing diplomatic missions or staff.

• Military sanctions: those include military strikes to arms embargos.

• Individual sanctions: These are sanctions against individual members of a nation, such as politicians or economic bigwigs.

The point is, taking action against a nation that harms their nation or their citizens, in and of itself, is an act of war.

A WAR INVOLVING MANY NATIONS OF THE WORLD........

We'll start with the United Nations and their resolutions against Russia due to their war with Ukraine.

As of February 2023, there were 102 countries that voted in favor of four different resolutions against Russia. 47countries voted for or abstained in at least one resolution. 16 countries voted to abstain from all resolutions. 19 countries that voted against or abstained from at least one resolution. Four countries that voted against all resolutions, one of which was Russia. Four countries that were absent in all resolutions. (Source)

Those are just resolutions, but show that the definition of "many nations" being involved, in some way, has been met by the UN.

As for NATO, they were founded in 1949, after both World Wars. In 2022, CNBC produced two maps showing NATOs growth, and their move eastward right t the edges of Russia.

Caveat: Both Sweden and Finland have joined NATO since these maps were published.

Europe 1990:

Europe 2022:

Russia's border with other European nations is now almost completely lined with NATO members.

Aside from NATO bases on the Russia's border, the US armed forces also have a presence in other sites alongside NATO which now has multinational battlegroups in Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and Slovakia, but there are a number of US-controlled 'base sites' that have relatively close proximity to Russia. The US has military bases within striking distance of Russia both in Europe and Asia. (Source)

While many might think after seeing the maps and information above, that NATO would be seen as the biggest threat to Russia, but since the U.S. is the defacto leader of NATO, it is the U.S. that has been declared by Russia as its biggest security threat, in their military policy doctrine of 2023, the first since 2016.

Related: The U.S. Air Force Has A Base Right Next To Russia. It Just Sent F-16s To Visit.

Sanctions are perhaps the best gauge as to how many countries are "attacking" Russia over the war in Ukraine, because they target Russia in a variety of ways that weren't feasible in the two other World Wars.

According to the BBC, the US, UK and EU, along with countries including Australia, Canada and Japan, have imposed more than 16,500 sanctions on Russia. There are 28 countries that are part of the EU (European Union).

Between the number of nations joining resolutions against Russia (102), along with 30 different countries joining the U.S. in sanctioning Russia, that most definitely matches the :many nations" criteria for what is considered a World War.

WORLD WAR III HEATS UP........

Keeping in mind the fact that Russia is a nuclear capable country that has made it clear that in a fight for survival they would use nuclear weapons, recent news becomes all the more concerning.

Despite the fact that Russian President Vladimir Putin has made it very clear Russia has no interest in attacking any other country other than Ukraine, which hold no national security threat for America, the constant Russia fearmongering by the U.S., and NATO, continues with the latest breathless headlines, one of which is "Prepare for Putin pivot to invade us, say Baltic states."

Nato must be ready for Russia launching an “existential” war against the Baltic states “masked by a blizzard of disinformation”, ambassadors from the three countries have warned.

Writing exclusively for The Sunday Telegraph, the top diplomats to the UK from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania said that Russia could “pivot quickly” from Ukraine to invade the Baltic.

And they said that Vladimir Putin’s brutalisation of Ukraine is evoking the three countries’ “darkest memories” of occupation under Stalin.

The Estonian ambassador Viljar Lubi, the Latvian ambassador Ivita Burmistre, and Lithuania’s charge d’affaire Lina Zigmantaite, wrote the joint article to mark Friday’s 20 year anniversary of their countries acceding to Nato.

While it may sound cold, Europe and wars in Europe are not the business of the U.S., and we should keep our noses out of it. Unless Russia attacks close to home, which Ukraine is not, and neither is Estonia, Lativa or Lithuania.

Let Europe protect Europe and stop sending tens of billions of U.S. taxpayer money to Ukraine, stop protecting their borders when the Biden regime refuses to protect ours, and rebuild our military which is facing recruitment shortages, especially since the U.S. military went "woke." Biden has left America short on certain ammunitions, which he accidentally admitted in 2023.

If the U.S. keeps poking at Russia, forcing Russia to act, Americans will be on their own because as we have seen with the invasion of our southern border, Biden's puppet masters care more about foreign nations than it does about their own people.

Gun Sales Skyrocket In The Face Of Invasion

By Bradlee Dean|April 3rd, 2024

“Approximately 17.4 million guns were sold in 2022, and 1.4 million guns have been sold monthly in 2023.”

Many in this country are now coming to the very realization of why it was that our forefathers established the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

It was to the leave citizens with the ability to defend themselves against unlawful violence, such as incoming from either the tyrants in the government or the criminal element within the populace, in which we have the God-given right to defend ourselves from both.

Most know that Americans have long been made a prey to the invasion of the illegals that are bringing in their crimes along with them. Of course, this is being committed by the treasonous individuals that are tolerated by the American people both within the federal and state governments (Article III, Section 3 U.S. Constitution).

No doubt, the government of today is at war with what it is that our forefathers have established.

What’s worse is the fact that the said judges are NOT holding the corrupt accountable, but are now going so far as to justify their treasonous acts by somehow advocating that the illegals can lawfully carry (Psalm 94:20) arms. No, I’m not making this up.

Simultaneously, the government is trying to disarm the American people.

In the face of this treason, the American people are responding. According to safehome.org:

In the U.S., many dynamic factors influence gun-purchasing decisions: economic conditions, media influences, legislative and leadership changes, and even public perceptions of threats. Each factor differs from state to state, creating a patchwork of attitudes and beliefs about firearms nationwide.

By digging into data on gun sales and ownership, we can begin to understand America’s complex relationship with firearms. This is why we explore data from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) from the FBI on a yearly basis. This database tracks firearm background checks and can be used to approximate gun sale trends in the U.S.

Here are a few key insights from our latest research:

An estimated 1.4 million guns were sold monthly between January and May 2023.

In 2022, approximately 17.4 million guns were sold in the United States. This is about 12% fewer than in 2021.

Alaska, Montana, and Wyoming had the highest estimated gun sales per capita in 2022.

In 2022, gun sales rose year over year in only three places: Iowa, the District of Columbia, and Oregon.

So far in 2023, Texas and Florida lead the nation in total estimated gun sales, making up about 14% of all guns sold nationwide.

Estimated Guns Sold in 2022 and 2023

In recent years, estimated gun sales across America have dramatically increased: toward the end of 2019 and throughout 2020, gun sales reached record numbers. Since then, gun sales have declined slightly. In 2022, about 17.4 million guns were sold in the United States.

Preliminary numbers show that gun sales in 2023 may look similar to last year. Between January 1 and May 31, 2023, an estimated 7.1 million guns have been sold. That’s about 1.4 million guns a month on average. Read more

Conclusion: Our Rights come from God, not from the privileges given by those who work for the American people, period!

Intel: Significant Activity at Iran Long-Range Missile Sites; Retaliation Against Israel Coming

Hal Turner World 02 April 2024 Hits: 13946

Several intelligence sources are confirming "significant activity" at Iran long-range missile sites in the west and north of the country. Retaliation against Israel for bombing an Embassy in Damascus, is pending.

Yesterday, Israel violated the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations when it bombed a building in Damascus, Syria, directly next to the Iran Embassy! It was the Ambassador's Official residence situated ON the Embassy compound; Iran sovereign territory!

Several high-ranking Iranian officials were killed in the attack, including Mohammad Reza Zahedi - a commander in the Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guards. He is the highest-ranking Iranian official killed in an Israeli attack.

If Iran plans retaliation, it's likely to occur tonight, as it marks the 23rd night of Ramadan, a significant occasion for Shia Muslims. Tonight, however, may prove too soon.

Should retaliation not occur tonight, it may coincide with a funeral, a common time for Iranian retaliation.

Expectations are high regarding Iran's response this time. Iran's Parliament Vice-Speaker Mojtaba Zonnouri cautioned Israel to anticipate retaliation within its borders, stressing that diplomatic missions are considered part of sovereign territory.

Iran's Supreme Leader, Khamenei, has signaled direct retaliation by Iranians themselves, bypassing proxies. Khamenei said "Israel will face consequences for its attack on the Iranian consulate," adding "We will make them regret committing this crime."

In a letter to the Security Council late Monday, Iran said it would take a “decisive response” to the Israeli attack but in line with international laws. So Iran has already filed Notice to the UN there __will__ be a military response.

The Israeli Defense Force, after making the attack, was placed on high alert.

The U.S. military has started recalling veteran retirees and is ordering them to report for active duty, citing Executive Order 13223 from the Bush administration in 2001.

This order allows for the recall of retired Soldiers to active duty from the Retired Reserve or the retired list under 10 USC 688/688a, 12301(a), or 12301(d).

The recall is part of an effort to address the military's manpower shortages and to fill critical vacancies. The recall process aligns with Army Regulation 601-10, which requires that recalled retiree Soldiers be assigned to valid vacant positions that match their grade and skill.

This initiative is a response to the military's ongoing recruitment crisis and the need to maintain a sufficient number of personnel to fulfill its global mission sets.

Clearly, a major conflict is about to start.

Iran has developed numerous and sophisticated missiles for its military use; more than capable of not only reaching __any__ target inside Israel, but doing so with great precision. Here's a look at Iranian Missile systems and their ranges:

Iranian Missile types and their range

When some of these missiles start coming down onto Israel, it is likely to unleash things that no one expects.

According to a source within the US Embassy in Israel, a message was received at the White House from Iranian Foreign Minister Amir Abd Allahian.

In the message, Iran warns the US against interfering in Iran's response to Israel following the bombing of the Iranian Embassy compound in Syria.

8 Extremely Unusual Events That Will Happen During The Month Of April

By Michael Snyder/End of the American Dream April 02, 2024

When is the last time that there was so much buzz about one month? As we enter April, there is so much anticipation in the air, and it isn't just because of the Great American Eclipse on April 8th.

In recent days, I have heard from so many people that feel like something really big is about to happen. I can feel it too. It is almost as if we are all holding our breath as we wait for the next shoe to drop. Chaos is threatening to erupt all over the globe, and meanwhile signs in the heavens are literally screaming at us to pay attention.

The following are 8 extremely unusual events that will happen during the month of April...

#1 As we enter the month of April, the "Devil Comet" has become visible to the naked eye in the northern hemisphere...

Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks - also known as the "devil comet" and the "Mother of Dragons" comet - is currently visible in the night skies of the northern hemisphere, providing a unique spectacle for both amateur stargazers and professional astronomers.

This Halley-type comet, which orbits the Sun every 71 years and has a nucleus about 30 kilometers in diameter, is known for its impressive outbursts of gas and dust during its voyages through the inner solar system.

This is the very first time that we have been able to see this comet with the naked eye in 71 years, and it will continue to be visible for those of us living in the northern hemisphere during the weeks ahead.

#2 On April 4th, that will be an extraordinary alignment of 4 planets just 4 days before the Great American Eclipse of 2024...

The next planetary alignment takes place on April 4, 2024. It will feature four planets - Venus, Neptune, Saturn, and Mars. The planets will align in the morning sky. Venus, Saturn, and Mars will be visible to the naked eye, but you'll need a telescope or high-powered binoculars to see Neptune.

#3 On April 8th, the seven other planets in our solar system along with the sun and the moon will appear to form a straight line in the sky when looking from Jerusalem toward the east. This was discovered by a friend of mine named Rachel Baxter, and the following is a graphic of that "line in the sky" that she sent to me...

Rachel asked ChatGPT to tell her how rare it is to have a straight line like this, and she was told that it would only happen once every 32 million years.

#4 Also on April 8th, CERN is planning to fire up the Large Hadron Collider...

The world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator is set smash protons together on April 8 to search for invisible particles secretly powering our universe.

Theories have suggested there are 17 different particle groups and the European Organization for Nuclear Research, better known as CERN, confirmed the existence of one using its Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012.

Now, the team has restarted the LHC with hopes of unraveling more mysteries of the universe - specifically dark matter.

Why in the world would CERN choose to do this on April 8th?

We are being told that they plan to shoot particles "down a 17-mile-long tunnel at nearly the speed of light to recreate conditions a second after the Big Bang".

That doesn't exactly sound like it is a good idea.

Let us just hope that nothing goes wrong.

#5 The most anticipated event of April is the Great American Eclipse of 2024. USA Today is calling it "the astronomical event of the decade"...

We're less than two weeks away from the astronomical event of the decade: A total eclipse of the sun, which will grace the nation's skies from Texas to Maine on the afternoon of Monday, April 8.

Millions of people are expected to travel to see the spectacle, which will also attract scientists from across the country to study its unique effects on the Earth and its atmosphere.

#6 As the eclipse passes over America on April 8th, NASA will be firing three rockets "into the moon's shadow"...

NASA has announced it will fire three scientific sounding rockets into the moon's shadow on Monday, April 8 during a partial solar eclipse across North America.

In what will be a total solar eclipse for a 115 miles-wide path through parts of Mexico, 15 U.S. states and Canada and a partial solar eclipse for the entire Americas, the event will see a sudden drop in sunlight.

For some strange reason, NASA has chosen to name this project after a serpent deity that was popular in ancient Egypt...

The space agency's project, Atmospheric Perturbations Around The Eclipse Path, will investigate how that drop in sunlight and temperature affects Earth's upper atmosphere. APEP is named after the serpent deity from ancient Egyptian mythology, nemesis of the sun deity Ra, according to NASA.

#7 Ominously, on April 8th the Great American Eclipse of 2024 will complete the giant "X" over the New Madrid fault zone that the Great American Eclipse of 2017 began. I feel so strongly that this is a very important warning to America that I put it on the cover of my latest book.

#8 During the month of April, the "cicadapocalypse" is coming. As I discussed earlier this year, for the first time since Thomas Jefferson was president billions of 13-year cicadas and billions of 17-year cicadas will emerge from the ground simultaneously...

"Billions, even trillions, of cicadas are going to emerge at the same time across 17 states," Chris Simon, a professor in UConn's Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, told Live Science.

Brood XIII and XIX have been living underground for 17 and 13 years respectively.

They will soon emerge at the same time for the first time in 221 years.

Shockingly, the emergence of these two groups will overlap in central Illinois...

What's more, this year's cicada groups, known as Brood XIII and Brood XIX, happened to make their homes adjacent to one another, with a narrow overlap in central Illinois.

By now, most of you already know that the path of the Great American Eclipse of 2024 overlaps with the path of the Great American Eclipse of 2017 in Illinois.

Is someone trying to tell us something?

In addition to everything that I have already covered, many on social media are speculating that a red heifer sacrifice could take place at some point during the month of April.

But so far I have not been able to find any solid evidence that such a sacrifice is imminent.

As I discussed last week, the red heifers that were transported to Israel from the state of Texas in 2022 need to be used before they are too old to qualify, and the priests that will conduct the sacrifice are ready to go.

However, if a red heifer sacrifice was imminent an altar for that purpose would be put up on the Mount of Olives, and so far that has not happened.

CBS News previously reported that a "massive while altar" for a red heifer sacrifice had been constructed...

A massive white altar awaits, where they are to be burned on a plot of land overlooking the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. Mamo said the ceremony must be performed looking directly into where the ancient Second Temple stood, until it was destroyed by the Romans in the year 70.

Unfortunately, that CBS News story was not accurate.

According to Israel365News, the altar that CBS News showed to the world is simply a model that is used for "Temple service reenactments and educational purposes"...

The structure in the video is a model of the altar as it stood in the Temple. The real altar must be made of stone. The model, located in Mitzpe Yericho, is used for Temple service reenactments and educational purposes. It is not made of stone and cannot be used for the Temple service.

So CBS News was wrong about the altar, and a lot of us were fooled by their report.

Before I end this article, I want to discuss something that happened at the end of March.

Joe Biden officially declared March 31st to be "Transgender Day of Visibility". Of course many people pointed out that this was the same day that many Christians were celebrating Easter. The following comes from Joe Biden's official pronouncement...

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we honor the extraordinary courage and contributions of transgender Americans and reaffirm our Nation's commitment to forming a more perfect Union -- where all people are created equal and treated equally throughout their lives.

I am proud that my Administration has stood for justice from the start, working to ensure that the LGBTQI+ community can live openly, in safety, with dignity and respect. I am proud to have appointed transgender leaders to my Administration and to have ended the ban on transgender Americans serving openly in our military. I am proud to have signed historic Executive Orders that strengthen civil rights protections in housing, employment, health care, education, the justice system, and more. I am proud to have signed the Respect for Marriage Act into law, ensuring that every American can marry the person they love.

If you can believe it, America now has more than 50 different holidays that celebrate alternative lifestyles...

The Biden administration's decision to honor "Transgender Awareness Day" on Easter Sunday has caused widespread controversy.

However, many Americans may be unaware that there are more than 50 LGBTQIA2S+-themed holidays.

When you add them all up, all of those holidays cover a grand total of 145 calendar days.

America has been fundamentally transformed, and our nation is racing in the direction that it has chosen as fast as it can.

This month, we will witness the most ominous signs in the heavens that our country has ever seen.

Will those signs be a wake up call, or will most of the population continue to remain asleep?

Statewide Emergency Declared in Indiana Ahead of Solar Eclipse

Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb issued the emergency declaration as a precaution ahead of the April 8 event.

By Jack Phillips 4/2/2024 Updated: 4/2/2024

Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb issued a statewide emergency due to a large influx of visitors to his state to view the total solar eclipse on April 8.

The Republican official said that the number of visitors to Indiana may strain the state’s communications, transportation, and emergency response systems, warranting the need for the declaration. Indiana includes some of the best locations in the United States to see the eclipse, according to a map of the path of totality.

“The massive number of people viewing this event in our state may well stress and/or interfere with first responder and public safety communications and emergency response systems such that a technological or other emergency may occur,” Mr. Holcomb said in a statement last week, adding that the declaration was issued as a precaution to bring in emergency resources from other states.

His order noted that the eclipse “will pass directly over the state of Indiana, giving everyone in our state an incredible view of this extremely rare event.” The order stated that the last time a total solar eclipse passed over the state was in 1869. After the event on April 8, the next one is not expected to occur for about another 75 years.

“It is of primary importance to the state of Indiana to be prepared to protect the health, safety and welfare of the public during this event and to be prepared to swiftly and effectively respond to any emergency that may arise,” the order continued.

The state’s capital and largest city, Indianapolis, is located in the eclipse’s path of totality, local media reported.

Officials in other U.S. states have issued advisories or warnings ahead of the astronomical event. Authorities in Ohio’s Summit County, for example, advised residents to “stay home” due to traffic congestion by an expected influx of viewers, while officials from the Illinois Department of Transportation warned that crowd sizes could be massive in some areas.

“Crowds of 100,000 to 200,000 are expected to come to the prime viewing area in southern Illinois,” the Illinois agency said. “All roads in and out of the area are expected to have heavy congestion in the couple hours after the eclipse.”

Texas Emergencies

Multiple counties in Texas declared emergencies due to the upcoming April 8 total solar eclipse due to potentially heavy traffic and gridlock.

On Monday, the Bosque County Office of Emergency Management declared a state of emergency due to heavy traffic and will authorize the county to take “any actions necessary to promote life, safety and critical infrastructure protection.”

The population of Bosque County is expected to significantly increase because “tens of thousands of visitors” may travel to the area to view the eclipse, possibly straining local resources and fuel supplies, officials said. Traffic congestion is expected, triggering the emergency declaration because “extraordinary measures must be taken to ensure the protection of public health, safety and welfare of Bosque County residents and visitors.”

Last week, Kaufman County Judge Jakie Allen issued a disaster declaration due to the “projected and expected number of visitors” in the area. County officials have said that some 200,000 people may visit the county to view the eclipse.

“The dramatic increase in population, even for a short time, will greatly impact our public safety agencies, taxing their ability to respond to calls,” county officials said.

Travis County, which includes the capital of Austin, issued a similar declaration last month due to the anticipated crowd sizes, said Judge Andy Brown. He said the population of the county could potentially double in the days surrounding the total eclipse.

“It’s super exciting to see this once-in-a-lifetime event,” the official said. “What makes it different is that it is a natural phenomenon, and we can’t control the weather around it. So there’s a lot of variables that we just can’t control for.”

According to the Dallas Morning News, the Texas Hill Country may be one of the best spots to view the eclipse in the United States.

But a significant influx of tourists may “cause extreme traffic congestion on our roadways, place an enormous strain on our first responders and hospital systems, drain our food and fuel supplies and strain our city and county infrastructure to, quite possibly, overcapacity,” Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said last month.

Niagara Falls

Meanwhile, last week, a state of emergency was declared in the Canadian Niagara Falls region, adjacent to the city of Niagara Falls in New York state, due to traffic and crowd sizes.

The city is also in the path of totality, which will receive no solar rays for a few minutes on April 8 as the moon blocks the sun. Niagara Falls Mayor Jim Diodati said in March that he expects the most visitors his city has ever seen in a single day.

In New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul warned travelers in the state to expect high amounts of traffic as several eclipse-viewing events will be held. She said that lane closures and construction will be halted ahead of the astronomical event.

In Nevada, south of the city of Reno a strong earthquake swarm recently struck the vicinity of the Steamboat Springs volcano which has not erupted for 1.14 million years. This activity occurred alongside the sudden widening of a 10 foot long crack in the ground, which is now emitting boiling water in geyser-like vents. So, is a volcanic eruption about to occur in the suburbs south of Reno?

'Preparing strikes on Israeli embassies': The coming Iranian response to Syria strike

Israeli expert: 'Iran does not want direct confrontation with the US or with Israel that would involve the US...That could change.'

By 103FM

APRIL 2, 2024 11:19 Updated: APRIL 2, 2024 20:24

Hezi Simantov, a commentator and correspondent for Arab affairs of 'News 13', spoke Tuesday morning with Nissim Mashal and Anat Davidov on 103FM about the assassination of the senior Iranian Mohammad Reza Zahedi, commander of the Quds Force in Syria and Lebanon, and the expected consequences.

First of all, according to the reports from Syria and Iran, the Israeli Air Force allegedly attacked a building adjacent to the Iranian embassy in Damascus, where several senior Iranian officials were located, among them Mohammad Reza Zahedi, who is actually the deputy commander of the Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guards in Syria and Lebanon,” Simantov began.

“A very senior member of the Iranian hierarchy, he managed the entire operation of smuggling weapons from Syria to Lebanon. He was a very senior person who can be said to have given Israel a lot of headaches in the last twenty years for all his exploits in his involvement in terrorism. This is the most senior Iranian who has been eliminated so far since October 7 on Syrian soil," he continued.

"This is a severe and painful blow to the Iranian regime, a matter in which the Iranians are more inclined to take revenge against Israel. We have already eliminated several of their senior officials since October 7 on Syrian soil. This is the period when Iran wants to show that it is leading the axis of resistance.

Hamas's utility waning

“[As an Iranian asset] Hamas is currently at a disadvantage because of the fighting in Gaza, and this does not mean that tomorrow morning, the Iranians will try to do something impulsive. They will perhaps try to activate their militias in Syria or the Houthis in Yemen.

This is something that has already happened and will continue to happen, but they are using, and you see the narrative in the Iranian media, that supposedly there is something diplomatic that has been harmed here," he added.

"They are laying the groundwork to strike at Israeli diplomatic representations worldwide, in the Arab world, Europe, or the United States or South America,” Simantov said. “The assassination attributed to Israel certainly makes the confrontation between Iran and Israel more direct, rather than indirect, as it has been until now in Syria.”

“Israel has very good intelligence about what is happening in Syria and Lebanon, unlike what is happening in the Gaza Strip, even before October 7,” he added. “There is still very good intelligence about these trained members of the Revolutionary Guards and senior Hezbollah figures in Lebanon and Syria. In my estimation, Iran is deterred from direct confrontation with the US. It does not want that. Iran does not want to bring the US into a direct military confrontation.

“Therefore, this situation in which it is increasingly engaging in terrorism activities in Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and the envelope to pressure Israel - that is something it will continue to do. Direct confrontation with the US or with Israel that would involve the US - that is not what it wants to do, at least not at this stage, that could change," Simantov concluded.

"Huge Problem": Pentagon's Rapid Wartime Response Cargo Ships Trapped In Baltimore After Bridge Collapse

by Tyler Durden Friday, Mar 29, 2024 - 04:00 PM

Two high-speed military cargo ships are stuck in the Port of Baltimore following Tuesday morning's collapse of the 1.6-mile-long Francis Scott Key Bridge. The major US East Coast port has been paralyzed for several days as the bridge collapse prevents inbound and outbound vessel traffic along the harbor's channel.

Using the automatic identification system, or AIS, data that tracks commercial vessels, three bulk carriers, two general cargo ships, one vehicle carrier, one tanker, and four Ready Reserve Force vessels (RRF), along with the container ship Dali that struck the bridge, are trapped in the harbor, according to the shipping blog gCaptain.

The three bulk carriers include:

The Liberian-flagged JY River, owned by JIADE INTERNATIONAL SHIP and managed by WAH KWONG SHIP MANAGEMENT HK of Hong Kong.

The Thailand-flagged Phatra Naree, owned by PRECIOUS STONES SHIPPING LTD and managed by PRECIOUS SHIPPING PCL of Thailand.

The Portuguese-flagged Klara Oldendorff, owned and managed OLDENDORFF CARRIERS GMBH & CO of Germany.

The vehicle carrier is:

The Swedish-flagged Carmen, owned by WALL RO/RO AB and managed by WALLENIUS MARINE AB of Sweden.

The general cargo ships include:

The French-flagged Saimaagracht, owned by REDERIJ SAIMAAGRACHT and managed by SPLIETHOFF'S BEVRACHTINGS BV of the Netherlands.

The Panama-flagged Balsa 94, owned by EASTERN CAPITAL MARINE INC and managed by HIONG GUAN NAVEGACION CO LTD of Hong Kong.

The tanker is:

The Marshall Islands-flagged Palanca Rio, owned by MINSHENG RUIYANG TIANJIN SHPG and managed by PUMA ENERGY SUPPLY & TRADING of Singapore.

The US Maritime Administration (MARAD) Ready Reserve Force vessels include:

The Cape Washington, a Cape W Class roll-on/roll-off vessel.

The Gary I. Gordon, a Gordon-class roll-on/roll-off vessel.

The SS Antares (T-AKR-294), a Algol-class fast sealift vehicle cargo ship.

The SS Denebola (T-AKR-294), another Algol-class fast sealift vehicle cargo ship.

According to the military blog The War Zone (TWZ), Algol class vessels are "some of the fastest cargo vessels of their general size anywhere in the world." These ships are part of the RRF, a subset of vessels within MARAD's National Defense Reserve Fleet (NDRF) that provide surge sealift capability to the Pentagon for overseas conflicts.

TWZ said the activation process of RRF vessels takes about five to ten days. The vessels are operated with a skeleton crew until called upon.

RRF are stationed at major marine ports around the US.

TWZ noted the Algol class vessels have been called into action several times over the last three decades:

Algol class have been called upon multiple times since they entered US service. Just five of these ships were responsible for transporting 20 percent of US cargo sent from the United States to Saudi Arabia during the first phase of Operation Desert Shield in the immediate run-up to the First Gulf War. The ships would go on to deliver 13 percent of all cargo that arrived in Saudi Arabia from the United States in the full course of that conflict.

The US military subsequently used Algols to support operations in Somalia and the Balkans in the 1990s, as well as the opening phases of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq in the early 2000s.

Breitbart News' Kristina Wong reported on Thursday that "The Department of Transportation will not say how many National Defense Reserve Fleet Ships are Stuck" in the Baltimore harbor.

Wong quoted John Konrad, CEO of gCaptain, who warned the stuck RRF vessels are a "huge problem if a war starts [but] not much of a problem if the next few months are peaceful."

According to CEO of GCaptain and maritime journalist@johnkonrad, four Ready Reserve Force ships are stuck in the port — the SS Antares, MV Cape Washington, MV Gary I. Gordon, and the SS Denebola.

He said the four ships being stuck is a “huge problem if a war starts [but] not… https://t.co/4GOZHtuWPE

The current readiness of the RRF fleet is unknown. And just like that, part of America's RRF fleet was taken out not by a missile or suicide drone, but a container ship that allegedly suffered a catastrophic 'electric issue'. America's enemies are taking note.

Happy Transgender Day – Forget Easter

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong March 31, 2024

If anyone dares to question why the United States will break apart and separate, you must move to California. Biden has just declared Easter is really Transgender Day. He did not give us a memo on how to celebrate. I guess we do not have to hunt for eggs or give presents. So, I guess we are all supposed to be cross-dressers today. We now have Biden effectively declaring Easter Sunday Transgender Day, which is basically a FU to all Christians while they are really saying take your religion and stuff it. The Biden Administration, like Marx, has effectively declared religion the OPIUM OF THE PEOPLE, and they have no respect for anything you believe.

Like Zelensky in Ukraine outlawing Eastern Orthodox religion and nullifying their holidays, including outlawing their Christmas in January, which has been celebrated for more than 1,000 years, the Biden White House is trying to eradicate our religious beliefs and customs.

When Biden won the White House, they were cheering that they would change America into their vision of la la land – Californization of the entire country. That is what I mean; the people who are really running the show in the White House HATE America! They hate religion, our culture, and everything about what made America – America. They are trying to desperately destroy everything about the United States that once made our country great and the beacon of liberty around the world. LIBERTY is old fashioned – they are now autocratic dictators that we MUST live by what they decree or else!

White House Doubles Down After Declaring Easter Sunday ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’

White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre has doubled down after President Joe Biden declared Easter Sunday “Transgender Day of Visibility.”

Jean-Pierre’s statement on X Saturday followed overwhelming backlash to Biden’s animated affirmation of the controversial holiday as the same day as the holiest Christian holiday.

“On Transgender Day of Visibility, the Biden-Harris Administration honors the extraordinary courage and contributions of transgender Americans and reaffirms our Nation’s commitment to forming a more perfect union where all people are treated equally,” Jean-Pierre posted.

Biden’s proclamation – issued on Good Friday, another sacred day for Christians – announced that “transgender Americans are part of the fabric of our nation” and called for the passage of the Equality Act. That law would codify Democrats’ embrace of gender identity, the made-up concept that one can identify as a sex other than what they were born as and become that sex. Democrats have tried to pass the bill for years but have yet to get it across a president’s desk.

Christians across the nation spoke out after Biden’s declaration went viral. Republicans in Congress overwhelmingly opposed it as well.

“The Biden White House has betrayed the central tenet of Easter — which is the resurrection of Jesus Christ,” Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) posted on X. “Banning sacred truth and tradition—while at the same time proclaiming Easter Sunday as “Transgender Day”—is outrageous and abhorrent. The American people are taking note.”

Biden has posted an Easter message on Easter Day in years past, although those statements were much shorter and seemingly boilerplate than his lengthy Transgender Day of Visibility call-to-arms.

The proclamation can be read in full here.

Religious-themed designs banned from White House Easter egg art contest

By Kendall Tietz, Fox News  Published March 29, 2024, 10:29 p.m. ET

Children of the National Guard are prohibited from submitting religious Easter egg designs for the 2024 “Celebrating National Guard Families” art event at the White House.

The art contest is part of the White House’s Easter traditions, which include the annual Easter Egg Roll.

The flyer for the contest states that an Easter egg design submission “must not include any questionable content, religious symbols, overtly religious themes, or partisan political statements.”

“As part of the White House Easter traditions, America’s Egg Farmers – for nearly 50 years – have proudly presented an intricately decorated Commemorative Easter Egg to the First Lady of the United States. In 2021, the White House expanded on this longstanding tradition by displaying youth-designed Easter eggs in the White House East Colonnade,” the flyer explains.

“On behalf of First Lady Jill Biden, The Adjutants General of the National Guard are asking youth from National Guard families across the United States and all U.S. territories to submit artwork inspired by the theme ‘Celebrating our Military Families,’” the flyer continues.

Children are asked to design eggs with images based on their own lives.

“Selected designs representing the unique experience and stories of National Guard children will be brought to life on real hen eggs by talented egg artists from across the country and displayed at the White House this Easter and Passover season,” the flyer says.

Children also can’t promote material that promotes “bigotry, racism, hatred or harm against any group or individual or promotes discrimination based on race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age” in their designs.

Selected designs will be painted by artists on real eggs and displayed at the White House.

The White House announced Thursday that the annual Easter Egg Roll would follow an “EGGucation” theme as it has in years past.

“A teacher for more than 30 years, First Lady Jill Biden is continuing her theme of ‘EGGucation’ for the event, transforming the South Lawn and Ellipse into a school community, full of fun educational activities for children of all ages to enjoy,” a statement from the White House read.

An estimated 40,000 people are expected to take part in Monday’s annual event.

In addition to the egg roll and Easter egg hunt, the event will also include a Physical “EGGucation” (PE) Zone, a School House Activity Area, Reading Nook, Field Trip to the Farm, Picture Day and a snack tent. Children’s entertainment, including “educational acts and performances,” will be shown on a “School House stage” on the South Lawn.

If you were God, how would you judge America?

Jerry McGlothlin yearns for a 'collective moral awakening' to bring nation back to its foundation

Jerry McGlothlin By Jerry McGlothlin  Published March 29, 2024 at 7:11pm

The late Rev. Billy Graham, a beacon of faith for millions, once posited a thought-provoking perspective: If God doesn't judge the United States of America, then He owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology. This statement, compelling in its time, resonates even more profoundly today amidst contemporary society's escalating sinfulness and moral erosion. If, hypothetically, the mantle of divine judgment were placed upon your shoulders for a day, how would you assess the United States through the lens of biblical morals and ethics?

The fabric of American society has been marred by a series of flagrant sins, increasingly divergent from the biblical path. Consider the issue of gender identity and the surge in transgender surgeries, including those performed on minors. This phenomenon could be interpreted as humanity's overt defiance of the divine design, a bold declaration of dissatisfaction with the Creator's choices. The alteration of one's gender, especially in children, could be viewed as a stark affront to God's sovereignty, a tangible manifestation of rebellion against the natural order established at creation.

Abortion, particularly the distribution and utilization of abortion pills, presents another profound moral quandary. Recent signals from the Supreme Court suggest an acceptance, if not endorsement, of these practices, contributing to an alarming increase in abortions, contrary to the anticipation of many who hoped for a significant reduction following legal and societal shifts. The convenience and anonymity afforded by abortion pills have only served to exacerbate this issue, pushing the sanctity of life further into the margins of societal concern. Space precludes me from opining in detail on fentanyl, human trafficking and dozens of other blights on our once-great nation.

Moreover, the moral landscape of the public education system presents its own set of challenges, with a curriculum often steeped in moral relativism or, in more extreme cases, teachings many would deem inherently evil. The dilution of absolute moral truths in favor of a more subjective, individualistic approach to ethics further complicates the societal adherence to biblical principles.

The prevailing work ethic, or lack thereof, particularly among younger generations, highlights a shift towards entitlement and aversion to labor, starkly contrasting the biblical valorization of hard work and stewardship. This cultural shift towards laziness and the demand for unearned privileges further undermines the foundational values of responsibility and diligence.

In this hypothetical divine judgment scenario, one might consider employing symbolic warnings to capture the nation's attention, mirroring the prophetic signs of old. For instance, the destruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge could serve as a powerful metaphor for the impending consequences of continued moral decline. Such an event would disrupt physical connectivity and serve as a poignant reminder of the fragile nature of freedom and the consequences of straying from foundational principles.

The irony of this example is palpable, as the very symbol of American resilience and freedom becomes twisted and compromised, a reflection of the nation's current moral and ethical state. The potential ignorance of historical figures and foundational moments among the younger generation only exacerbates the problem, indicating a disconnection from the past and a lack of understanding of the sacrifices and values that built the nation.

In judging the United States from a divine perspective, the focus would inevitably fall on a call to repentance and a return to biblical principles. The judgment would likely be stern yet underscored by a desire for redemption and restoration. The ultimate goal would be to steer the nation back toward a path of righteousness, emphasizing the need for a collective moral awakening and a recommitment to the values that once defined and could again fortify the fabric of American society. But if biblical history proves anything, there has never been a moral revival without significant pain and suffering, leading up to repentance and revival. Let's hope and pray for a first: a moral revival without too much pain beforehand and for it to be a lasting movement. But if that proves impossible, bring on the pain necessary to see our God-fearing Republic's rebirth.

Turkish Television Discusses Hitting Greece

by Uzay Bulut April 1, 2024 at 5:00 am

[T]he Turkish government aims to conquer the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea – either militarily or demographically. The goal is the same: the islands' capture.

The Turkish media also falsely and repeatedly claims that "152 Greek islands and islets in the Aegean belong to Turkey". These islands, however, historically and legally, belong to Greece, mainly through the 1924 Treaty of Lausanne, 1932 Turkish-Italian Agreements and the 1947 Paris Treaty.

Conquest is part of Islamic jihad (warfare in the service of Islam) which, according to Islamic scriptures, is a communal obligation. The ideology of conquest in the name of jihad is what drove Ottoman Turks to invade and conquer lands stretching across Asia, Europe and Africa for more than 600 years.

According to Islamists, Muslim military expansion is an act of Allah's favor because Allah bestows those places upon Muslim conquerors.

The Turkish government's stance on the genocide is a bizarre combination of denial and conceit. First, they say that their ancestors did not commit genocide and that it was merely a war of self-defense. Then, they proclaim "they [Christians] deserved it" and "if need be, we could do it again".

The US government seems to ignore that Turkey – acting as if it is the successor to the Ottoman Empire – does not stop threatening Greece, Cyprus and Armenia with military invasion.

The US Congress would be well advised to reconsider its decision regarding F-16 sales to Turkey and this alliance altogether.

On Turkey's pro-government TV channel AHaber, political analysts and national security specialists on February 28 enthusiastically discussed how the Turkish Air Force could strike Greek islands in the Aegean Sea.

Speaking in front of a map of Turkey and Greece, Mesut Hakkı Caşın, a professor of international law and Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan's advisor for security and foreign policy, spoke about the Turkish Kaan fighter jet, which is currently under development, and said:

"This [Kaan] plane won't be spotted by Greek radars. As this plane hits the main targets [Aegean islands] here, the other plane accompanying it, [the UAV Bayraktar] Akıncı, can destroy all the radars here [on the islands], leaving the Greeks blind...

"Add to that our other unmanned combat aerial vehicles, Greek squares will be devastated in less than 3 hours...

"If the Greeks enter a war with us, all the weapons in all those islands will be war booty for us."

Another analyst said:

"The Turkish nation has a dream regarding the islands, but the official policy can't be expressed publicly."

Another said:

"We will not invade the islands. We will use our right to move freely. We will be a member of the European Union. And then the islands will demographically pass to the Turkish people in a generation. In a generation, all the islands will be majority Turkish."

"Conquest without a war," he added, "happens like this [through demographic domination]."

The other analyst disagreed:

"Those islands were under Ottoman rule for 500 years, but they were 95 percent demographically Greek. Even the Ottoman Empire could not Turkify them. Also, I don't believe Turkey will ever be a member of the EU. [The conquest of the islands] will happen only through war."

So, the Turkish government aims to conquer the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea – either militarily or demographically. The goal is the same: the islands' capture.

Such conversations are frequent in Turkey's pro-government media. On February 6, Turkish analysts proudly discussed the prospects of Turkey striking Greece with missiles.

On CNN Turk, pro-government analysts said that the Tayfun, the first Turkish-made short-range ballistic missile, could easily hit Greece from Turkey. "If we fire it from Edirne or Izmir, we can hit Athens," they concluded.

These threats are not new. For at least the past five years, Turkey's government has threatened to invade and annex the Greek islands in the Aegean.

On the official X (Twitter) account of Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) a video was posted on April 22, 2023, claiming some Greek islands and the Western Thrace region of Greece as part of Turkish territory.

The Turkish media also falsely and repeatedly claims that "152 Greek islands and islets in the Aegean belong to Turkey". These islands, however, historically and legally, belong to Greece, mainly through the 1924 Treaty of Lausanne, 1932 Turkish-Italian Agreements and the 1947 Paris Treaty.

Erdogan's Islamist government apparently aims to annex Greek territory for two main reasons. The first stems from a belief in neo-Ottomanism and the Islamic concept of conquest, or "fetih," from the Arabic word "fath". The second reason stems from the government's proud denial of its past crimes against Christians.

Conquest is part of Islamic jihad (warfare in the service of Islam) which, according to Islamic scriptures, is a communal obligation. As author Dr. Mark Durie explains:

"The Islamic ideology of conquest demands that a land, once conquered for Islam, belongs in perpetuity to Muslims. After conquest, previous occupants became tolerated clients of the Muslim occupiers, and, according to Islamic law, they were allowed to survive as long as they paid tribute.

"Connected to the idea that conquered land belongs to Muslims is the Quranic concept of mustakhlafīn ('successors'). [Qur'anic] Sura 24:55 says, 'God has promised those of you who believe and do righteous deeds that He will surely make you successors in the land.'

"In the Qur'an, 'successors' are believers who take over the properties of a people whom Allah has destroyed, including by conquest at the hands of believers. By this logic, Muslims become the 'successors' – the rightful owners – of conquered lands."

The ideology of conquest in the name of jihad is what drove Ottoman Turks to invade and conquer lands stretching across Asia, Europe and Africa for more than 600 years. At its height, the Ottoman Empire occupied most of southeastern Europe to the gates of Vienna, including present-day Hungary, the Balkan region, Greece, and parts of Ukraine; parts of the Middle East (including present-day Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Israel); North Africa and large parts of the Arabian Peninsula.

According to Islamists, Muslim military expansion is an act of Allah's favor because Allah bestows those places upon Muslim conquerors.

In conquering Constantinople for instance, Islamists claim that according to a hadith (Ahmad; Hakim, al-Mustadrak), Islam's prophet Mohammed (b. 570 – d. 632) encouraged Muslims to conquer the city.

Muslim Turks, led by Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II, also known as Muhammed bin Murad, invaded and captured Constantinople from the Greek Byzantine (Eastern Roman) Empire on May 29, 1453. The city had been built and ruled by Greeks for millennia. Turks call the Sultan "Mehmed the Conqueror" (Fatih).

According to Professor Mustafa Sabri Küçükaşçı, a specialist in Islamic history:

"It was through the Hudaybiya Treaty (April, 628) that the general concept of conquest, with its spiritual dimension of reaching out to hearts and minds, entered Islamic culture. Prophet Muhammad taught his Companions (Sahaba) that conquest could occur both through war and through preaching the message of the faith."

According to what Islamic scholars, including Küçükaşçı, call "conquest hadith", Islam's prophet Mohammed said: "

Verily, you shall conquer Constantinople. What a wonderful army will that army be, and what a wonderful commander will that conqueror be."

Küçükaşçı writes:

"These types of hadith, and especially the conquest hadith, frequently referred to concepts like conquest, war, and jihad; in addition, the Companions and the Muslims who came after them brought the conquest hadith to the fore as the most defining component of the motivation for the conquest of Constantinople."

What followed the fall of Constantinople was bloodshed and the rape of Christians by Muslim Turks, among other atrocities, as described by the historian Raymond Ibrahim, from reports by eyewitnesses at the time:

"Once inside the city on that fateful May 29, 1453, the 'enraged Turkish soldiers . . . gave no quarter':

"'When they had massacred and there was no longer any resistance, they were intent on pillage and roamed through the town stealing, disrobing, pillaging, killing, raping, taking captive men, women, children, old men, young men, monks, priests, people of all sorts and conditions... There were virgins who awoke from troubled sleep to find those brigands standing over them with bloody hands and faces full of abject fury... [The Turks] dragged them, tore them, forced them, dishonored them, raped them at the cross-roads and made them submit to the most terrible outrages... Tender children were brutally snatched from their mothers' breasts and girls were pitilessly given up to strange and horrible unions, and a thousand other terrible things happened. . .'"

Mehmed II converted Hagia Sophia Cathedral, then the world's greatest church, into a mosque. In 1934, the government of Turkey turned Hagia Sophia into a museum, then, in 2020, back into a mosque. The latest transformation fully displayed the government's disrespect for religious liberty, particularly for Christianity.

A possible second reason for Turkey's aggression against its neighbors (including Greece and Armenia) is its self-satisfied denial of the 1913-23 Christian genocide in Ottoman Turkey.

The pride that Turkish authorities take in the genocide, during which over three million Christians were killed, and the rejection of any accountability, enables the government of Turkey to commit similar crimes with ease. As Turkey's Human Rights Association noted in 2016, "When a crime goes unpunished, it continues to be committed. Denial perpetuates genocide."

Turkish citizens who publicly acknowledge Turkey's genocide can, to this day, be tried in Turkish courts for "insulting the Turkish state". Since the government of Turkey smugly and aggressively denies Ottoman Turkey's genocide of Christians and has faced no consequences, its threats continue against Greece.

On January 27, Erdogan said at a public meeting of the ruling AKP party:

"Our struggle did not end with expelling the enemy [Greeks] from our lands and throwing them into the sea from Izmir."

Erdogan was referring to the 1922 Turkish massacre against indigenous Greeks, Armenians, and other Christians in Smyrna (Izmir), which brought an end to that city's millennia-long Greek civilization. Smyrna had been a majority-Greek city from ancient times until the 1922 massacre.

Lou Ureneck, a professor of journalism, went to Smyrna, did extensive research there on the city's history, and wrote a book about the massacre. According to his research:

"In September 1922, the richest city of the Mediterranean was burned, and countless numbers of Christian refugees killed. The city was Smyrna, and the event was the final episode of the 20th Century's first genocide — the slaughter of three million Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians by the Ottoman Empire. The slaughter at Smyrna occurred as warships of the great powers stood by — the United States, Great Britain, France and Italy."

Many survivors fled to neighboring Greece. Property and land that the victims had left behind were seized by Turks.

The Turkish government's stance on the genocide is a bizarre combination of denial and conceit. First, they say that their ancestors did not commit genocide and that it was merely a war of self-defense. Then, they proclaim "they [Christians] deserved it" and "if need be, we could do it again".

Erdogan spoke at a rally prior to the March 31, 2019 local elections in Izmir, referring to 1922 and proudly said: "Izmir, which threw the kafirs [infidels] into the sea."

Emphatic denial of the genocide or blaming the victims is the mainstream position across Turkey, including in schools, media, academia, politics and elsewhere.

Turkey's genocide-denial can be clearly seen in its foreign policy issues. How is the government of Turkey supposed to respect international human rights law when it takes pride in having wiped out entire nations, such as the Armenians, Assyrians and Anatolian Greeks, and has taken no step toward restorative justice?

The foreign policy of the Islamist government of Turkey is, in fact, mainly shaped by its genocide denial in addition to its ideology of Ottoman-style violent conquests and territorial expansion, an approach which has created wars and massive instability in the region, as in Cyprus, Syria, Iraq, and Armenia.

Despite these practices of the Turkish government, on January 27, the US government approved the $23 billion sale of 40 new F-16 fighter jets to Turkey, after Ankara ratified Sweden's accession to NATO. On March 1, US Senators declined to block the sale, despite strong opposition voicing deep disdain for Turkey's conduct as an ally.

The US government seems to ignore that Turkey – acting as if it is the successor to the Ottoman Empire – does not stop threatening Greece, Cyprus and Armenia with military invasion.

Azerbaijan – with the support of Turkey – has been falsely referring to the entire country of Armenia as "Western Azerbaijan" and has been demanding that it either surrender or suffer a military invasion by Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan did in fact invade the Armenian Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) in September 2023.

Azerbaijan apparently now wants to conquer the Republic of Armenia as well. Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev falsely calls Armenia's capital Yerevan "historical Azeri land," even though the Republic of Armenia has never been under Turkish or Azeri rule.

Turkey also denies the sovereignty and Greek identity of the Republic of Cyprus, 36% of which it illegally invaded and has been occupying since 1974. Cyprus had been a demographically Greek island for millennia, had also been occupied by the Ottomans from 1571 to 1878.

Erdogan, furthermore, has long been referring to Jerusalem, which was under Ottoman occupation from 1516 and 1917, as a Turkish city. "Jerusalem," he announced in 2020, "is our city."

Erdogan also announced that Turkey "firmly" backs terror group Hamas, which aims to destroy Israel and exterminate the Jews. Erdogan's government indeed provides Hamas with military, financial, political and diplomatic support, and hosts its terrorist leaders, as Qatar does.

"Turkey is a US ally," a recent report noted, "but should not be a trusted one."

The US Congress would be well advised to reconsider its decision regarding F-16 sales to Turkey and this alliance altogether.

etc.  for the world hates the Christians more now than at anytime in history.  Even during the days Jesus walked on earth, it is much worse now and it is not going to get better because those that don’t believe the truth are going to come against you like never before because they don’t want you to know the truth etc.

WILSON COUNTY, TENN. (WTVF) — Investigations are underway after a suspicious trailer fire in Wilson County on Easter Sunday.

The Wilson County Sheriff's Office published a statement about the incident around 9:00 a.m. on Facebook. According to officials, the fire began around 6:00 a.m. and caused a road closure at the Old Lebanon Dirt Road and Chandler Road intersection.

Mt. Juliet Police Department swiftly responded to the scene, accompanied by the Mt. Juliet Fire Department who worked quickly to extinguish the blaze.

Early investigations, led by the WSCO, show that the trailer was full of Bibles. Officials believe that the trailer was intentionally dropped off in the middle of the intersection and intentionally set on fire. No injuries have been reported following the incident.

One of our reporters spoke with Sheriff Robert Bryan, who said he has no doubt the Bibles were burned intentionally. He says investigators are currently reviewing the security footage, and the car appears to be an out of state plate.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Wilson County Sheriff's Office at 615-444-1459.

The investigation is ongoing, and as of now we don't have any more details.

This is a developing story and NewsChannel 5 will update this article as more details are released.

China Warns Citizens Inside USA: Prepare for "Various unexpected situations"

Hal Turner World March 31, 2024 Hits: 27168

A strange warning has been issued by China to any of its citizens located in the United States: "take safety precautions and be prepared for 'various unexpected situations.'

According to the China Ministry of Foreign Affairs, several Chinese students and company employees have recently been subjected to “unwarranted interrogations and harassment” by US airport law enforcement officers, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on its WeChat account on Friday.

Their phones, computers and other luggage items were searched piece by piece, and several people were banned from entering the country, it said.

To most casual observers, this "warning" from China makes no sense. At worst, perhaps twenty people from China have had unusual incidents trying to enter the United States; hardly a reason for such a large warning. Unless . . .

So-called "Conspiracy theorists" are wondering if this "warning" is actually a "signal" to Chinese forces already inside the US; sort of a notice to "prepare for action?"

After all, such folks say, how can anyone, anywhere, "prepare for various UNEXPECTED situations?" They point out that no one can do that, and thus the tin-foil-hat folks -- who often are proven to be correct -- wonder if this is more of a signal, than a warning?
