Bird and Swine Flu

I’m gonna be as objective as I can on this and post information I’ve read about this issue, but first off, since one of the first topics and one of the main reasons I started blogging was the SPP, the Security, Peace and Prosperity partnership meetings between the US and Canada (see my original posts for more detail), the following information seems to be extremely relevant to the issue of the SPP.  But first, some brief background on how I learned of all this. As you know, I like to frequent the Global Research site as much as I have time for. I haven’t yet donated, but I intend to. It’s my most-valued source of info. (You can find a treasure trove of information about swine flu on their site, under the Science and Medicine or Biotechnology topics on the sidebar.

Anyway, way back last fall, I came across an article that expressed fear about Bush-era developments in bio-warfare, specifically having to do with that research facility in Fort Detrick and changes to the rules on studying virulent pathogens. And this one on Avian flu. That was alarming in itself, but I didn’t have time to follow up. There were reports and investigations by WHO that swine flu may have originated in a lab.

Now, when this so-called swine flu broke out a few months ago, it all seemed too sudden, just on an instinctual level. F. William Engdahl, whom I have a great deal of respect for, came out with an article suggesting what we all thought: this probably came about from the unsanitary conditions on one of those huge industrial pig farms in Mexico. It seemed logical at first glance, right?  Or did it?

I went to this doctor, Nyman, the guy who developed the “flu-tracker”, google-earth like map that tracked the progress. He was saying something along the lines that, well, the flu is coming out in the spring and developing over the summer, so in many ways it’s comparable to the Spanish flu of 1918. He said that he thought the real challenge would come in the fall and winter during flu season. Anyway, he just seemed so detached and really unhelpful. He seemed more concerned about how his new tracking software functioned than in actual helping people understand and combat what he thought was a potential “pandemic”. That raised some alarm bells to me. That and when I did some research on the guy, I found a lot of people questioning his credentials. Anyway, it was that guy’s tracking software that made some of the other later article I read seem more important. Perhaps, as some bloggers speculated, swine flu was a bio-weapon “beta-test”, to see how these things travel, how quickly, and where. Or perhaps just a hoax perpetrated to make money for vaccine manufacturers. Well, here’s where it gets more interesting. Listen to these ladies: “trust your government” !!!

All the hullabaloo about pandemic, to this day, just smacks of propaganda and fear-mongering, and I still believe it is just that. But, for what purpose, I kept asking myself. It doesn’t seem to be so bad, what a few hundred people worldwide? Malaria kills more people. Dysentery kills more. What gives? Well, I started coming across more information lately, and actually I hope it isn’t true, but I’m afraid it might be.

This article, while on the topic of bird flu, may be related and of interest. But, it was in this journalist’s lawsuit that really sent shivers down my spine.

It may just be that the real threat comes not from the flu, but from the vaccine not only because they include a dangerous and side-effect-unknown “adjuvant” squaline which may be linked to Gulf War Syndrome (see also here and here, where hard research has confirmed that, “results and those of others (Asa et al., 2000a; Matyas et al., 2000) strongly suggest that the production of anti-squalene antibodies is linked to symptoms of Gulf War Syndrome and to the presence of squalene in certain lots of anthrax vaccine in some individuals.”), but also especially if the company that manufactures the vaccines deliberately contaminates them.

I think the moral to this story is, DON’T YOU BE GETTING ANY FLU VACCINES!

“A Brilliant Act of Hypnosis” – Harold Pinter

As Pinter explains so eloquently, the truth is elusive.  One has to grapple with it, to get beyond its ephemeral nature to see something that can be held onto.  But that’s the problem: it’s really hard to hold onto it.

I’ve at times thought I held the truth.  I was sure of it, and then at a glance it was gone.  As I listen to Pinter relate the tragedies of El Salvador and Nicaragua, I can’t help but to kick myself somewhat for always forgetting the dates and names.  I guess that’s why I like this blog.  It allows me to remember Romero, the coup in ‘54, the Sandinista victory in ‘79 and darker things like that thug’s summer camp in Fort Benning, Georgia. These things I’ve always known, but forgotten the details.  But none of us should ever forget these things.  They are the same things that are dealt with in Perkins’ books which I’ve referred to previously. They are truly central to the whole problem we face as humanity in crisis, and they point to what Pinter has distilled for us: the loss of “the dignity of man”.  To get that back, we have to raise this stuff to consciousness.  There’s no better way break the hypnosis, as I see it, than to listen to this essential speech.

Dialogue Towards Peace

This is an interesting intersection of stories I’ve been following for some time, which may well bear some fruit in the coming months. The Ben Fulford enigma is worth a full length article in Rolling Stone and is beyond my ability to do it justice. Suffice it to say that he’s been providing some much needed perspective of the “Asian” side of the whole geo-economic hodge-podge that’s taking place these days. In the last few weeks, his statements and posts have been getting bolder and bolder. There’s the whole Bank of International Settlements angle, how they’re trying to stave off destruction of the greenfrogskin us$, and the case of the two Japanese caught in Italy with billion-dollar US bonds. Those stories are weird enough, and beyond my scope to follow up on – I’ll wait for Fulford’s update.
But now, he’s formed an alliance with Leo Zagami (see an interview with him on Project Camelot) who seems to be a kind of reformer and mover/shaker in several secret masonic societies, and is trying to root out (according to what he says in this dialogue) the darker sides within those societies. It certainly seems like these two guys do mean business, and what else would they be up to? They’ve both obviously got day jobs. They’ve nothing to gain by perpetrating a hoax on youtube addicts like me. And furthermore, listen to what they’re saying. They make a lot of sense. If there really are power struggles going on behind the curtain of main stream media (which of course, there are, as any fool knows), then it does give me a sense of relief that it’s these two who’re working from within. While he takes a stab at Alex Jones (”using a bullhorn outside Bilderberg meetings isn’t helping”) who I still like, he’s got a point that you’ve got to see the universality in all the masonic symbolism, and that there obviously is a positive force in the strivings of “illuminated beings” (of which Bilderbergers are obviously not a part, being completely materialistic, missing he point of the whole Rosicrucian lore, the “flowering of knowledge in all people”, not just a few privileged ones.)
For those lost on me here, I suggest you “youtube up” on the whole masonic symbolism thing. There’s no shortage, as Zagami notes, of Internet coverage of illuminism. But, check out one of Alex Jones’s videos where he explains the symbolism of Washington DC, and all the other trappings of “Skull and Bones” societies. Read “The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail” over that other more recent, more popular work of fiction that came out recently, for a real treatment of secret masonry, Knights Templar and Rosicrucianism.
I watched the latest Indiana Jones movie (I know, I know. I heard it was crap and never meant to see it, it’s just my wife rented it and I didn’t want to waste the money, you know!) the other night. Actually, after falling asleep in the build up to the climax, I found the end-result not that bad after all. What I mean is, I think Spielberg actually restrained himself a bit. I found there to be refreshingly little “masonic symbolism” in a movie I thought would be chalk full of it. I agree he just churned out a stock formula action flick, but I did see something interesting: references to the Maya, the inclusion of the Nazca Lines and Peru (see my previous post on an unrelated artifact in Peru), UFOs, and, to my great astonishment, a collapsing pyramid in the denouement! Anyone with some knowledge of movie-craft knows that’s a potent symbol, and one which is apropos to this dialogue. It was Fulford who had a vision of sorts, of the eye of the pyramid as the vulnerable spot, the Achilles heel so-to-speak, of the illuminati. He forsaw years ago in that vision, that if he could take out the eye of that pyramid of power, the whole house of cards would tumble down with it.
Did you see that movie, 10 000 BC? Remember when the slaves revolted and the golden cap on the pyramid comes toppling down? I love that movie for the symbolism of the downfall of the Pharoah-kings. That seems to be a dominant image, and one of which Spielberg seems to be aware, and for that, I applaud him. Not only that, but the movie doesn’t try to accomplish too much, which I appreciate. Let’s just hope that old professor Jones takes is final sabbatical, hey? We’ve got other matters to keep our eyes on. Anyway, here’s that dialogue with a 33rd degree freemason. The second link is the same guy talking to a lady who it is claimed is the granddaughter of the Meiji emperor. (There are 2 parts to the first video and 3 parts to the second). I looked her up. She’s certainly a really wealthy philanthropist and journalist who’s gotten interviews with the likes of fellows who never do interviews with Western journalists (think Libya and Iraq). Let’s hope this strange friendship brings into being something nice for humanity.

The Doorway…

This is as strange a story as I’ve ever come across. And yet, it’s not so strange, because I’ve been reading more and more about this kind of stuff lately, and much of it from seemingly credible sources. I came across this couple serendipitously, in much the same way as I used to come across amazing books in the U of C library in my studying days. I was just looking up pictures of something else when I found this couple who offer tours in all kinds of mysterious places in South America: always a favorite dream destination of mine. (I always regretted putting off my journey there with my good friend Hammer years ago, but in retrospect, perhaps I hadn’t the wisdom necessary at the time!)

On their site I discovered this golden nugget: an amateur documentary video of an ancient stone construction and alcove built into the wall of a mountain high on the altoplano of southern Peru, near the holy lake Titicaca.

They speculate that it may be a kind of ’stargate’ or ‘wormhole’. While I have my skeptic’s hat firmly on while taking in any of these esoteric sites, I find it really intriguing, not only the careful, rational and ultimately believable approach Wills takes, but also the correspondences in some of the hard data he offers. For example, he mentions how the sandstone has a high silica content. I’ve read from other sources how silica responds to sound. So that much isn’t just a hoaxer’s story. Anyway, I’ve always been a sci-fi buff and an avid student of anthropology and prehistory, so this stuff is just fascinating to me. This video takes a while to load, so open it and come back in an hour to watch.

Dollar Hegemony

If the winds of change are any indication,  US dollar hegemony is over. The countries of the SCO just met and Russia’s calling for a new reserve currency.  What it means has been outlined in this article by Chris Hedges.  If he’s right, there are troubled times ahead as the US monster is backed into a corner.  We know that the powers are scared, as there have been a spate of high-level meetings lately, as if they’re in a panic to come up with some sort of plan.  There was Bilderberg in Greece, and a pre-North American Union meeting in Montreal last week.

The “Road to Recovery” is the farcical theme being trumpeted on CNN over here these days, and even the leading economists Roubini and Taleb (who I posted earlier) are still doubtful:

Recently,  Professor Fekete wrote a brilliant article suggesting, fiat currency is facing an irreversible crisis (PDF).  No matter how you slice it, hyperinflation is the order of the day.  I read that at the latest 30 year bond auction, the US had to buy 18 percent of them, and sell at discount rates. Now I don’t know much about that, but the author was suggesting that it indicated the US is in a bind and is buying it’s own debt instruments with taxpayer money (money that they have to print, which is in effect ‘diluting’ the currency). Whatever alchemy they’re up to, the winds of change are blowing, and, it’s gonna be good for those who seek to store the fruits of their labors in yellow metal.

The real 007 knew that Q was a traitor!

I couldn’t stop watching this interview with a former MI5 intelligence officer who’s been in Canada doing speaking engagements recently.  Riveting stuff, and although I’ve heard Zwicker’s name before, I never knew much about him.  Here he asks good questions, and they get into the real issues like you rarely see elsewhere  -  particularly, false flag and state terrorism, covert ops, shadow government, media self- and editorial censorship, moles in the media organizations, and the links between “establishment” and the corporate world. Never heard much about MI5 and 6 before. She’s the real 007, and she’s got some tales to tell. I tend to agree with her that “they” will never be able to wrest the internet from us – the geek/hacker community must be way ahead of them already. And, she claims that there were ‘good’ missions undertaken when she was inside. That’s heartening and suggests there are ‘good spies’ out there. Let’s hope it’s true!
