Didn't See This Coming: EU Parliament Reject Orwellian "Vaccine" Mandates In Favor Of Human Rights

Rumble — European Union Members of Parliament are coming out strongly against the Human Rights abuses that have come about as a result of the NWO's "Green-Pass" vaccine mandates. They are saying that governments across Europe (and the world) are violating the fundamental freedoms of its citizens, which are enshrined in law.

The MPs are making it clear that the "Covid-Agenda" has nothing to do with science, nor public health, but rather is intended to bring about a Totalitarian system that eliminates even the most basic of human rights in order to enslave the population. (Emphasis mine)

Did anyone anticipate that members of the European Union would be coming out against the New World Order?

Julian Assange: Sign to STOP the USA Extradition

 Phillip Adams started this petition to Marise Payne (Minister for Foreign Affairs and Minister for Women) and three others.

This is a global petition to Free Julian Assange and to stop the legal precedent being established of a USA Extradition for a non USA journalist that exposed USA war crimes.

This petition is the largest petition in history to have been presented to the International Criminal Court (The Hague). This is also the largest petition in history to have been successfully Tabled (accepted into Parliament) in both houses of the Australian Parliament.

On January 4, 2021 this petitioned campaign helped secure a "Stop to the USA Extradition". Together with many individuals and teams around the world we are now on a pathway to Free Julian Assange.

Unfortunately however, as of January 11, 2021 the entities that perpetrated the war crimes that Julian Assange's publications revealed have indicated they will appeal the decision to STOP the USA Extradition of Julian Assange from the U.K. to the USA to be tortured for a further 175 years.

This petition invites everybody from every nation to sign and join this critically important campaign to Free Julian Assange.  We helped Stop the USA Extradition now we focus to Free Julian Assange and return him to the love of his family.

Further, this petition will drive to prosecute the alleged complicit "public officers" of the UK, Sweden, Ecuador and Australia that allegedly together manifested a situation that deliberately and by design subjected Julian Assange to psychological torture. The process of delivery of psychological torture to Julian Assange continued even though public statements by the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture determined that Julian Assange was being subjected to cruel and degrading treatment that resulted in case of verified psychological torture as determined by implementation of the Internationally recognized Istanbul Protocol by a team of medical experts.

Read the petition and SIGN)

I know that it's "just" a petition but we have to do everything we can.

NIH Admits Funding Risky Virus Research in Wuhan - Fauci under fire

Bipartisan legislators demand answers from Fauci on alleged puppy experiments

By Jackie Salo October 24, 2021

Excerpt:

"Dr. Anthony Fauci is being slammed by lawmakers for allegedly providing a grant to a lab in Tunisia to torture and kill dozens of beagle puppies for twisted scientific experiments.

The bipartisan group also raised concerns about allegations that scientists slit dogs’ vocal cords so that they wouldn’t bark during the experiments.

“This cruel procedure — which is opposed with rare exceptions by the American Veterinary Medical Association, the American Animal Hospital Association, and others- – seems to have been performed so that experimenters would not have to listen to the pained cries of the beagle puppies. This is a reprehensible misuse of taxpayer funds,” the letter said."

Mysterious rise of heart attacks in UK this year

 "Health experts have been left baffled by a big rise in a common and potentially fatal type of heart attack in the west of Scotland.

During the summer there was a 25 per cent rise in the number of people rushed to the Golden Jubilee National Hospital in Clydebank with partially blocked arteries cutting blood supply to the heart.

Typically the centre, which is the largest of its kind in the UK and treats people from five health board areas, receives 240 patients a month suffering with this form of heart attack, but this rose to more than 300 over May, June and July of this year. Doctors have searched for a pattern among patients to determine if less access to health checks in the (keep reading if you're signed.)

My Comment on Youtube was deleted - it is about Psychiatry malpractice

"Thank you Dr. Healy.

You always give the broad picture of everything. Never heard of a physician that put the political, economical and cultural aspect of what they are explaining.

"So tiny and..."  my conclusion is always the opposite: "So tiny and causing so many illness."

I beg your pardon? 20:37 "... market Zoloft neither the names in the authorship line nor the people who run the trial, nor the ghostwriters, nor the FDA or the MHRA will have seen the data from these trials."

"So I´ve written to NICE, and, MHRA, and EMA, and FDA, all the major journals, all the politicians, the minister of health in all the departments of health in the western European archipelago, - that's England and Ireland for those who weren't sure what it is,  - and they all agree that the literature was ghost written and there's no access to the clinical trial data. Their response is to take the escape route that I offered them which is that it's not our job to police the medical literature raising the question of whose job is this."

Stop the world, the planet... the universe.

I'm glad I still have some innocence left and indignation.

Funny that UK Parliament talk about ghost writers in their 2005 review "The Influence of Pharmaceutical Industry".

Human genome editing: why are we silent?

 

This is the link for WHO's page: human editing.

Here some concerns: The CRISPR-baby scandal: what’s next for human gene-editing

As concerns surge after a bombshell revelation, here are four questions about this fast-moving field.

David Cyranoski  26 February, 2019

"In the three months since He Jiankui announced the birth of twin girls with edited genomes, the questions facing the scientific community have grown knottier.

By engineering mutations into human embryos, which were then used to produce babies, He leapt capriciously into an era in which science could rewrite the gene pool of future generations by altering the human germ line. He also flouted established norms for safety and human protections along the way.

There is still no definitive evidence that the biophysicist actually succeeded in modifying the girls’ genes — or those of a third child expected to be born later this year. But the experiments have attracted so much attention that the incident could alter research for years to come.

Chinese authorities are still investigating He, and US universities are asking questions of some of the scientists he consulted. Meanwhile, calls for an international moratorium on related experiments, which could affect basic research, have motivated some scientists to bolster arguments in favour of genome editing.

Some are concerned about how the public scrutiny will affect the future of the field, whether or not researchers aim to alter the germ line. “The negative focus is, of course, not good,” says Fredrik Lanner, a stem-cell scientist at the Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, who has been editing genes in human embryos to study how cells regulate themselves.

But others predict that the He affair might propel human gene editing forwards. Jonathan Kimmelman, a bioethicist specializing in human trials of gene therapies at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, argues that definitive action in the wake of the scandal could expedite global cooperation on the science and its oversight. “That would stimulate, not hinder, meaningful advance in this area,” he says.

Here, Nature explores four questions still lingering around the births.

What will happen to He — and the children?

He has been criticized, but not just because he pursued germline editing. He also neglected to do adequate safety testing and failed to follow standard procedures in procuring participants. He was subsequently censured by the health ministry in Guangdong, where he worked, and fired from his university. He did not respond to Nature’s multiple attempts to contact him.

At this point, further penalties seem to be in the hands of the police. There are a range of criminal charges that He could face. While recruiting participants, He and his team agreed to cover the costs of fertility treatment and related expenses, up to 280,000 yuan (US$42,000). He also stipulated that participants would have to repay costs if they dropped out. Liu Ye, a lawyer at the Shanghai Haishang Law Firm, says that if such payments are found to count as coercive measures, they could constitute a crime. Guangdong province also found that He used forged ethics-review documents during recruitment of participants and swapped blood samples to skirt laws against allowing people with HIV to use assisted reproductive technologies.

We live in a period that...

Antidepressant SSRI Luvox - Columbine drug - is being prescribed as a Covid prophylactic drug?

 I will not share everything that is on my mind since I've learned that Luvox - Fluvoxamine is being used to help Covid... blah blah blah

Dr. Peter Breggin wrote about one aspect of this drug:

Eric Harris was taking Luvox (a Prozac-like drug) at the time of the Littleton murders

by Peter R. Breggin, M.D   April 30, 1999

On April 29 the Washington Post confirmed that Eric Harris, the leader in the Littleton tragedy, was taking the psychiatric drug Luvox at the time of the murders. On April 30 the same newspaper published a story quoting expert claims that Luvox is safe and has no association with causing violence. In fact, Luvox and closely related drugs commonly produce manic psychoses, aggression, and other behavioral abnormalities in children and young people.

Luvox is a Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) that is approved for children and youth (up to age 17) for use in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder. However, doctors often give it for depression, since it is in the same SSRI class as Prozac, Zoloft, and Paxil.

According to the manufacturer, Solvay, 4% of children and youth taking Luvox developed mania during short-term controlled clinical trials. Mania is a psychosis which can produce bizarre, grandiose, highly elaborated destructive plans, including mass murder. (emphasys mine) Interestingly, in a recent controlled clinical trial, Prozac produced mania in the same age group at a rate of 6%. These are very high rates for drug-induced mania--much higher than those produced in adults. Yet the risk will be even higher during long-term clinical use where medical supervision, as in the case of Harris, is much more lax than in controlled clinical trials. These drugs also produce irritability, aggression or hostility, alienation, agitation, and loss of empathy. (emphasys mine)

Reports suggest that Eric Harris may have had a relatively good family life. If so, it adds to the probability that he was suffering from a drug-induced manic reaction caused by Luvox. The phenomenon of drug-induced manic reactions caused by antidepressants is so widely recognized that it is discussed several times in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders of the American Psychiatric Association and many times in The Physicians' Desk Reference. (emphasys mine)

I have lectured widely and written extensively about violence in association with taking SSRI antidepressants in Talking Back to Prozac (St. Martin's Press, 1994) and Brain-Disabling Treatments in Psychiatry (Springer Publishing Company, 1997).

I have testified as a medical expert in three teenage cases of murder in which SSRIs were implicated in playing a role. In one case, a sixteen year old committed murder and tried to set off multiple bombs and incendiary devices at the same time. I have also testified in cases of adult murderers who were under the influence of SSRIs, including one mass murder of twelve people followed by suicide. The comparisons to Littleton are obvious. (emphasys mine)

Psychiatric drugs including Ritalin and Prozac have also been taken by at least one other school murderer (Kip Kinkle). Psychiatric drug use is only one of the contributing factors to the episodes of school violence. However, it is one of the most easily prevented factors. There is strong scientific evidence to support the view that SSRIs should not be given to children and teenagers.

On Denigrating the Humanities by Professor Richard Falk

 "I was reading with interest the profile of Joshua Angrist in the Jerusalem Post, the Israeli-American MIT economist who shared this year’s Nobel Prize in economics with two others when I came upon this uncongenial sentence: “Angrist said he was frustrated that many salaries, particularly in academia, were set using fixed pay grades, with professors in fields such as computer science and economics being paid the same as professors of literature, instead of being set by market forces, (emphasys mine) as they are elsewhere.”

Angrist apparently was much earlier deeply at odds with the way in which academic salaries were set in Israel. His words of 15 years ago were reprinted in The Jerusalem Post:  “I was tired of the situation here. The Israeli system does not reflect the reality of pay differential by field. (emphasys mine)It’s the public system, and it’s not very flexible.” It seems to me that Israel was engaged in admirable initiative–treating a university as a community of scholars where knowledge flourished across disciplinary borders without affixing price tags on the comparative value of differing ways of knowing to be determined by market forces. (emphasys mine) An alternative approach would be to seek higher, apparently more appropriate salaries for the faculty across the board, which might have helped create a contented community instead of alienated economists and computer geeks who rushed for the exits whenever a foreign university offered more money to attract an Israel professor. (emphasys mine)

There is a further disturbing implication of Angrist’s invidious comparison. It is as if literature, and presumably the humanities overall, were a superfluous luxury in a society where computer science and economics are valued highly by the market. (emphasys mine)  Professor Richard Falk  (entire article here.)

 As a literature professor and art lover I’ve been noticing this phenomenon for a long time. Mr Angrist's words reflects the combats humanities have been suffering to deliberately alter their particularity, their core or even eliminate them.

Neuroscience wants to approach all humanities’ fields and some “experts” are showing that they simply cannot understand let alone claim responsibility for anything related to aesthetics, art, literature, sociology… name it.. Their “studies” are laughable.

Hyperrealistic Paper Sculptures of Everyday Objects

What some artists do with paper always astonishes me. This is Makiko Azakami that I just found here where more paper artists are exhibited.

"Makiko Azakami is a Japanese artist that uses paper as main material. She creates hyperrealistic sculptures of everyday objects by cutting and folding paper. Among her very accurate artworks we can see the reproduction of a Leica camera, a paintbrush, a pencil or a calculator. She manges to mislead the viewer with the precision of her creations."

I would never guess these are made of paper. At this page there are more but unfortunately Makiko's site is no longer online.

ADT -Active Denial Technology (burning skin feeling) and "The voice of God"

                                     UNITED STATES 10.23.2013 Video by Sgt. Brittany Fogel 

 

"The Solid State Active Denial Technology (SS-ADT) is a non-lethal weapon system which disrupts hostile activities and can deny personnel from remaining in specific areas, without causing permanent physical harm or collateral damage."

The video depicts it so appealing that it seems that we should have this system in our houses for protection. We need protection, security we need protection... We need it badly.

It is a non lethal weapon after all.

Let's listen to Mark Cancian's experience with the non lethal weapon on his article "‘Heat Ray’ And ‘The Voice Of God’: My Experience With The Nonlethal Weapons Eyed For Use In D.C. Protests" published at Forbes: 

Excerpt:

"How should people think about these systems? The reporting has been breathless as if the military were about to shine death rays on peaceful citizens. The exotic nature of the technologies has added to the anxiety. In fact, both systems have been around for a long time and deployed overseas. (It’s not clear whether (emphasys mine) ADS was used overseas.) ADS has not been used operationally in the United States. LRAD is commercially available, and police departments use it occasionally. Indeed, LRAD has a variety of uses from scaring wildlife off runways to alerting boaters about danger.

Because the LRAD is like a powerful megaphone, its use seems relatively familiar. ADS is different, a novel and exotic capability for which there is no ready analog. People should think of it like a taser, which police departments routinely use. For those fortunate enough not to have met one up close, a quick explanation: a Taser fires electrodes into the victim and then hits them with a high voltage that is enough to short-circuit the nervous system for a short period of time. Victims are incapacitated. Tasers have gained acceptance because they provide an intermediate step between a baton and a bullet. Someone coming after a police officer with a stick, for example, needs to be stopped, but they don’t need to be shot.

ADS is similar. It uses technology to incapacitate people without hurting them. It’s an intermediate force option. An important difference, however, is that tasers are used every day, and are hence familiar, while ADS is strange and unfamiliar.

Aren’t these the kind of systems that militarize the police? No. Militarization of the police is a real problem, but that’s not the issue here. Debates about militarization arise because DOD has a program whereby it provides excess military gear to police departments. Many have criticized the program for encouraging the overuse of force. However, the ADS and LRAD provide the opposite kind of capability: civilian policing capabilities brought into the military. Further, ADS would not be available even if police departments wanted it because the system is expensive, complicated, and scarce.

So, would it have been appropriate to deploy the systems? It’s important to note that the systems were not used and were not even moved to the area. The D.C. National Guard does not own them; they would come from other parts of DOD, likely the Marine base at Quantico. It’s also clear that a staff member just asked a question. That’s what staff members are supposed to do. It’s a long way from asking a question to deploying a capability.

The question of usage gets wrapped up in disputes about President Trump’s attitude towards the use of force against demonstrators, and the fact that many people disagreed with his views. It’s a reasonable discussion about what level of violence requires what level of response. Wherever the line gets drawn, however, it is better to use a high-tech electronic beam than batons, tear gas, and, ultimately, firearms."

Vertigo at Waipi'o Valley Road (Big Island, Hawaii)

I came across with  Matt Hickman's 8 of the World's Steepest Streets and this picture...

I feel dizzy and vertigo is already trying to imbalance me. :)

"Full of twists and turns and lined with beautiful trees and scenery, Hawaii's Waipi'o Valley Road has an average gradient of about 25%, with some stretches reaching gradients of up to 40%.7

Waipi'o Valley Road on the northeast coast of Hawaii's Big Island is one of the only steep streets on this list that isn't accessible to public transit. In fact, only four-wheel-drive vehicles may drive on this paved, one-lane road through the lush Hawaiian rain forest. Many local car rental companies do not permit customers to drive down this street in rented vehicles due to the high frequency of accidents and breakdowns."

Why you should rethink having bottled water

I've been drinking water from the tap since ever and will never understand the reasons that made plastic bottled water a luxury, a necessity, and the illusion of it's safety and healthful.

Pandora papers by ICIJ: Journalists exist and we have to support them

We all knew, we have been  referring to them as the "1%" and some claiming that these people should be brought up to light, exposed. since they have been hiding in plain sight.

Now thanks to the work of the ICIJ - International Consortium of Investigative Journalism - 

"Millions of leaked documents and the biggest journalism partnership in history have uncovered financial secrets of 35 current and former world leaders, more than 330 politicians and public officials in 91 countries and territories, and a global lineup of fugitives, con artists and murderers.

The secret documents expose offshore dealings of the King of Jordan, the presidents of Ukraine, Kenya and Ecuador, the prime minister of the Czech Republic and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The files also detail  financial activities of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “unofficial minister of propaganda” and more than 130 billionaires from Russia, the United States, Turkey and other nations.

The secret documents expose offshore dealings of the King of Jordan, the presidents of Ukraine, Kenya and Ecuador, the prime minister of the Czech Republic and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The files also detail  financial activities of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “unofficial minister of propaganda” and more than 130 billionaires from Russia, the United States, Turkey and other nations.

The leaked records reveal that many of the power players who could help  bring an end to the offshore system instead benefit from it – stashing assets in covert companies and trusts while their governments do little to slow a global stream of illicit money that enriches criminals and impoverishes nations.

Among the hidden treasures revealed in the documents:

• A $22 million chateau in the French Riviera – replete with a cinema and two swimming pools – purchased through offshore companies by the Czech Republic’s populist prime minister, a billionaire who has railed against the corruption of economic and political elites.

• More than $13 million tucked in a secrecy-shaded trust in the Great Plains of the United States by a scion of one of Guatemala’s most powerful families, a dynasty that controls a soap and lipsticks conglomerate that’s been accused of harming workers and the earth.

• Three beachfront mansions in Malibu purchased through three offshore companies for $68 million by the King of Jordan in the years after Jordanians filled the streets during Arab Spring to protest joblessness and corruption.

The secret records are known as the Pandora Papers.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists obtained the trove of more than 11.9 million confidential files and led a team of more than 600 journalists from 150 news outlets that spent two years sifting through them, tracking down hard-to-find sources and digging into court records and other public documents from dozens of countries."
