humansarefree--2020-06-06--The Plandemic is a Cover For The ‘Global Financial Reset’

Now is not the time to be complacent says Lynette Zang , Chief Market Analyst at ITM Trading .
Zang spoke with SBTV about where the world is headed to from this plandemic crisis and how gold and silver are the best assets to protect wealth during these times .
We are staring at a global financial reset and it ’ s being covered up by the plandemic and the constant crises that are arising .
We are running out of time to get preparations in place for what ’ s coming and most are still focused their attention elsewhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on behind the curtains .
There ’ s no way the general public would have tolerated another 2008 , and bailouts for the corporations without making this virus into something huge .
But under its cover , they were able to pull off a heist of the public and without much of a protest either .
This interview came with timestamps , so if there ’ s anything you ’ d like to watch specifically , those are listed .
13:51 Not time to be complacent , time to prepare 17:04 Decent amount @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Confidence in the fiat Ponzi scheme is ending “ They could have not gotten a better cover , ” says Zang .
Studying history , Zang learned that “ every single government-backed currency has failed.
” But gold , which is real currency , has withstood the test of time .
“ It ’ s insanity , ” she says , and if you ’ re not paying attention , you ’ re not going to understand it .
“ I got ta tell ya , globally , the pension system was in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this is true on a global basis .
Well , now , when this whole piece , when this whole puzzle implodes , it ’ s a great excuse.

The central bankers are lying .
A reset will come and that ’ s what they don ’ t want the public to know about .
“ One hundred percent of [ what ’ s going on right now ] is the Fed intervention.

When asked how much gold and silver will be enough , Zang says , “ I don ’ t think you can have too much.
” If you have excess fiat dollars , she suggests improving your means to barter by buying gold and silver .
If you have currency outside of the system @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
If everything you do and everything you have is all in the central banking system , your only option will be to accept the reset and losses that are coming with it .
“ Somebody else is choosing for you.

This is something we here have been warning about .
The wealth will go to the top and the military in the streets will be necessary as a show of force to prevent you from fighting back when they steal everything from you .
This about preparedness .
Instead of just blindly accepting military force on American soil , look beyond at why they have to manufacture your consent .
Would you have accepted the military in the street under @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
If you want to hate me for giving you the roots of English words , I don ’ t care .
If you want to hate me for telling you that military presence is to keep you from fighting back against this massive rest and upcoming wealth transfer , I don ’ t care .
I ’ m trying to save lives .
Hate me all you want , but open your eyes .
Agenda 21 requires martial law and this reset will happen once the guns are in place .
This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ against governments and central banks around the world , and in order to stay in power , they had to change your perception of what you ’ re seeing .
The window of opportunity was closing because people were seeing governments and central banks for what they really are .
Using the plandemic and riots as an excuse , they ’ ve once again manufactured the consent of the public to complete their plans for Agenda 21 .
“ Personally , I think it should be obvious to everybody what lies ahead with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ amount of money printing .
It can not end well.
” The new monetary system will be digital , says Zang , but not something that already exists like Bitcoin , because they can not control or manipulate Bitcoin .
Once we are in a digital currency system , they can do lifetime taxation .
There ’ s nowhere to hide once this is all over .

Now is not the time to be complacent says Lynette Zang, Chief Market Analyst at ITM Trading.

Zang spoke with SBTV about where the world is headed to from this plandemic crisis and how gold and silver are the best assets to protect wealth during these times.
We are staring at a global financial reset and it’s being covered up by the plandemic and the constant crises that are arising.
We are running out of time to get preparations in place for what’s coming and most are still focused their attention elsewhere, not understanding what’s going on behind the curtains.
There’s no way the general public would have tolerated another 2008, and bailouts for the corporations without making this virus into something huge.
But under its cover, they were able to pull off a heist of the public and without much of a protest either.
This interview came with timestamps, so if there’s anything you’d like to watch specifically, those are listed.
Discussed in this interview:
06:38 Gold for wealth preservation, silver for barter
13:51 Not time to be complacent, time to prepare
17:04 Decent amount of gold and silver to have
21:00 Mixed feels over economy shutdown
28:48 Dollar to lose reserve currency status soon?
34:03 Watch the bond market
38:22 Confidence in the fiat Ponzi scheme is ending
47:36 Exit strategy for precious metals
“They could have not gotten a better cover,” says Zang. Studying history, Zang learned that “every single government-backed currency has failed.”
But gold, which is real currency, has withstood the test of time.
“It’s insanity,” she says, and if you’re not paying attention, you’re not going to understand it.
“I gotta tell ya, globally, the pension system was in huge trouble. Severely underfunded. And this is true on a global basis. Well, now, when this whole piece, when this whole puzzle implodes, it’s a great excuse.”
What Zang sees them doing, is setting up for a global currency reset. The central bankers are lying. A reset will come and that’s what they don’t want the public to know about.
“One hundred percent of [what’s going on right now] is the Fed intervention.”
The system died in 2008. Zang says to prepare for this reset, you need to have things to barter. She says she uses silver, but eggs can also be bartered.
Prepare to take all of your economic functions locally and within the community.
When asked how much gold and silver will be enough, Zang says, “I don’t think you can have too much.” If you have excess fiat dollars, she suggests improving your means to barter by buying gold and silver.
If you have currency outside of the system, you get to retain your choices.
If everything you do and everything you have is all in the central banking system, your only option will be to accept the reset and losses that are coming with it.
“Somebody else is choosing for you.”
That’s not freedom, that’s enslavement, and exactly what the elitists want from us all. “We all have to decide [for ourselves], is that ok? Because they are gonna make choices that are in their best interest first.”
Don’t just survive this economic reset, thrive through it by removing your dependence on the system.
“This is a major wealth transfer,” she added.
This is something we here have been warning about. The wealth will go to the top and the military in the streets will be necessary as a show of force to prevent you from fighting back when they steal everything from you. This about preparedness.
Instead of just blindly accepting military force on American soil, look beyond at why they have to manufacture your consent.
Would you have accepted the military in the street under Barack Obama’s reign of terror?
If you want to hate me for giving you the roots of English words, I don’t care.
If you want to hate me for telling you that military presence is to keep you from fighting back against this massive rest and upcoming wealth transfer, I don’t care.
I’m trying to save lives. Hate me all you want, but open your eyes. Agenda 21 requires martial law and this reset will happen once the guns are in place.
This is happening because people were rising up against governments and central banks around the world, and in order to stay in power, they had to change your perception of what you’re seeing.
The window of opportunity was closing because people were seeing governments and central banks for what they really are.
Using the plandemic and riots as an excuse, they’ve once again manufactured the consent of the public to complete their plans for Agenda 21.
“Personally, I think it should be obvious to everybody what lies ahead with all this global. unlimited, infinite amount of money printing. It cannot end well.”
The new monetary system will be digital, says Zang, but not something that already exists like Bitcoin, because they cannot control or manipulate Bitcoin.
Once we are in a digital currency system, they can do lifetime taxation. There’s nowhere to hide once this is all over.

Twitter has appointed suspected Chinese spy Fei-Fei Li to the Board of Directors .
Li has been involved with the project to weaponize Artificial Intelligence for human-machine combat teaming for the Chinese military in collaboration with Google .
“ With unparalleled expertise in engineering , computer science and artificial intelligence ( AI ) , Fei-Fei brings relevant perspectives to the Board as Twitter continues to utilize technology to improve our service and achieve our long-term objectives , ” said Omid Kordestani , Executive Chairman of Twitter .

Fei-Fei Li was also cited in a December 2017 report by Chinese news portal sohu.com as saying : “ China is like a sleeping giant .
When she wakes , she will tremble the world.

In 2015 , the Party ’ s United Front Work Department , a body tasked with running the regime ’ s influence operations overseas , specifically designated a new focus of working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ education , state-run media China Daily reported .
In 2008 , the regime launched a recruitment drive called “ Thousand Talents Program , ” aimed to lure accomplished Chinese and foreign professionals , experts , and entrepreneurs to work in China .
The program has come under intensified scrutiny in the United States in recent years , for its role in facilitating the transfer of U.S. intellectual property to China .
In May 2018 , Fei-Fei Li found herself the center of internal debate within Google about whether it should proceed with Project @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to provide AI for analyzing drone footage .
In leaked emails obtained by The Intercept , Fei-Fei Li was concerned about the optics of the deal , writing that it may stir up concern over the possibility that the company was weaponizing AI .
“ This is red meat to the media to find all ways to damage Google .
You probably heard Elon Musk and his comment about AI causing WW3 , ” wrote Fei-Fei Li .
“ I don ’ t know what would happen if the media starts picking up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ AI weapons or AI technologies to enable weapons for the Defense industry.
” Google later decided not to renew its contract with the Pentagon , reportedly due to backlash from the company ’ s employees .
Google has recently come under the spotlight for its AI operations in China .
American President Donald Trump has kicked off a storm stating that he will initiate an investigation looking to “ treasonous activities ” by Google .

The Competition Commission of India ( CCI ) launched a probe in April against Google for leveraging its dominant market position .
If found guilty Google might be looking at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crore ( almost 10 million dollars ) .
Interestingly , as reported by The Print , an anonymous source told them that the investigation could take about two years to complete apart from the potential penalty .
The investigation started off after the case was filed by contracted employees of the CCI .
Now , the investigation will be taken over by permanent employees of the 30-member watchdog team .
Google ’ s platform Google Earth also played a vital role in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks of 2008 .
Will the India government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ India as is being done by Americans ?
In the words of Snowden , “ the rebranding of Surveillance as Social Media is the most successful deception since the Department of War became the Department of Defense.
” Whether Google colludes with Chinese military or has been already infiltrated by Chinese spies or whether the Americans are successful in getting it out of the Chinese orbit , Indians should be well warned that Google is a military front company and as was the case in Mumbai attacks it will be used as a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ situation so arise .

Suddenly there is no talk about coronavirus. Reputable doctors in Italy, the UK, and elsewhere are claiming the virus hardly exists any longer.
Just over a week ago much of America faced jail if they dared break the “social distancing” rules put in place by tyrannical governors and other public officials. Now tens of thousands gather to protest a police killing with impunity.
And the spikes they warned about in areas where restrictions were eased are not happening. So what is happening?
Also, what to make of the Trump/ Mattis/ Esper spat over US troops deployed against rioters in the US?
There’s now allegedly ZERO new deaths in NYC, down from thousands:

humansarefree--2020-06-06--The Mainstream Media Has Conveniently Forgotten George W. Bush’s Many Atrocities

Former president George W. Bush has returned to the spotlight to give moral guidance to America in these troubled times .
In a statement released on Tuesday , Bush announced that he was “ anguished ” by the “ brutal suffocation ” of George Floyd and declared that “ lasting peace in our communities requires truly equal justice .
The rule of law ultimately depends on the fairness and legitimacy of the legal system .
And achieving justice for all is the duty of all.
” Bush ’ s declaration was greeted with thunderous applause by the usual suspects who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ contrast to Trump .
While the media portrays Bush ’ s pious piffle as a visionary triumph of principle , Americans need to vividly recall the lies and atrocities that permeated his eight years as president .
In an October 2017 speech in a “ national forum on liberty ” at the George W. Bush Institute in New York City , Bush bemoaned that “ Our politics seems more vulnerable to conspiracy theories and outright fabrication.
” Coming from Bush , this had as much credibility as former president Bill Clinton bewailing the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Bush nowadays either ignores the falsehoods he used to take America to war in Iraq or portrays him as a good man who received incorrect information .
But Bush was lying from the get-go on Iraq and was determined to drag the nation into another Middle East war .
From January 2003 onwards , Bush constantly portrayed the US as an innocent victim of Saddam Hussein ’ s imminent aggression and repeatedly claimed that war was being “ forced upon us.
” That was never the case .
As the Center for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 232 false statements about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and another 28 false statements about Iraq ’ s links to Al Qaeda.
” As the lies by which he sold the Iraq War unraveled , Bush resorted to vilifying critics as traitors in a 2006 speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars .
Bush ’ s lies led to the killing of more than four thousand American troops and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians .
But since those folks are dead and gone anyhow , the media instead lauds Bush ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Center art show displaying his borderline primitive oil paintings .
In February 2018 , Bush was paid lavishly to give a prodemocracy speech in the United Arab Emirates , ruled by a notorious Arab dictatorship .
He proclaimed : “ Our democracy is only as good as people trust the results.
” He openly fretted about Russian “ meddling ” in the 2016 US election .
But when he was president , Bush acted as if the United States were entitled to intervene in any foreign election he pleased .
He boasted in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ $ 5 billion “ for programs to support democratic change around the world , ” much of which was spent on tampering with foreign vote totals .
When Iraq held elections in 2005 , Bush approved a massive covert aid program for pro-American Iraqi parties .
The Bush administration spent over $ 65 million to boost their favored candidate in the 2004 Ukraine election .
Yet , with boundless hypocrisy , Bush proclaimed that “ any ( Ukrainian ) election…ought to be free from any foreign influence.
” US government-financed organizations helped spur @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in 2004 .
Both of those nations , along with Ukraine , remain political train wrecks .
In that October 2017 New York speech , Bush proclaimed : “ No democracy pretends to be a tyranny.
” But ravaging the Constitution was apparently part of his job description when he was president .
Shortly after 9-11 , Bush turned back the clock to before 1215 ( when the Magna Carta was signed ) , formally suspending habeas corpus and claiming a prerogative to imprison indefinitely anyone he labeled a terrorist suspect .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the president was entitled to violate the law during wartime — and the war on terror was expected to continue indefinitely .
In 2004 , Bush White House counsel Alberto Gonzales formally asserted a “ commander-in-chief override power ” entitling presidents to ignore the Bill of Rights .
Under Bush , the US government embraced barbaric practices which did more to destroy America ’ s moral credibility than all of Trump ’ s tweets combined .
Bush ’ s “ enhanced interrogation ” regime included endless high-volume repetition of a Meow Mix @ @ @ @ @ @ @ slapping , waterboarding , exposure to frigid temperatures , and manacling for many hours in stress positions .
After the Supreme Court rebuffed some of Bush ’ s power grabs in 2006 , he pushed through Congress a bill that retroactively legalized torture—one of the worst legislative disgraces since the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 .
During his years in the White House , Bush perennially denied that he had approved torture .
But in 2010 , during an author tour to promote his new memoir , he bragged about approving waterboarding for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be the nation ’ s racial healer ?
When he was president , Bush inflicted more financial ruin on blacks than any president since Woodrow Wilson ( who brought Jim Crow barbarities to the federal government ) .
Bush trumpeted his plans to close the gap between black and white homeownership rates and promised in 2002 to “ use the mighty muscle of the federal government ” to solve the problem .
Bush was determined to end the bias against people who wanted to buy a home but had no money .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Downpayment Act in 2003 , authorizing federal handouts to first-time homebuyers of up to $ 10,000 or 6 percent of the home ’ s purchase price .
Bush also swayed Congress to permit the Federal Housing Administration to make no–down payment loans to low-income Americans .
Bush proclaimed : “ Core American values of individuality , thrift , responsibility , and self-reliance are embodied in homeownership.
” In Bush ’ s eyes , self-reliance was so wonderful that the government should subsidize it .
And it didn ’ t matter whether recipients were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bush ’ s 2004 reelection campaign trumpeted his down payment giveaways , a shining example of “ compassionate conservatism.
” Thanks in large part to his policies , minority households saw the fastest growth in homeownership leading up to the 2007 recession .
The housing collapse ravaged the net worth of black and Hispanic households .
“ The implosion of the subprime lending market has left a scar on the finances of black Americans — one that not only has wiped out a generation of economic progress but could leave them at a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Washington Post reported in 2012 .
The median net worth for Hispanic households declined by 66 percent between 2005 and 2009 .
That devastation was aptly described in a 2017 federal appeals court dissenting opinion as “ wrecking ball benevolence ” ( quoting a 2004 Barron ’ s op-ed I wrote ) .
But almost none of the media coverage of the ex-president reminds people of the economic carnage of this Bush vote-buying binge .
It is possible to condemn police brutality and , even more importantly , the evil laws and judicial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Americans without any help from a demagogic ex-president who ravaged our rights , liberties , and peace .
As I commented in an August 2003 USA Today op-ed , “ Whether Bush and his appointees will be held personally liable for their [ Iraq War ] falsehoods is a grave test for American democracy.
” The revival of Bush ’ s reputation vivifies how our political media system failed that test .
As long as George Bush doesn ’ t turn himself in for committing war crimes , all of his talk about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rubbish .
James Bovard is the author of ten books , including 2012 ’ s Public Policy Hooligan , and 2006 ’ s Attention Deficit Democracy .
He has written for the New York Times , Wall Street Journal , Playboy , Washington Post , and many other publications .

The rule of law ultimately depends on the fairness and legitimacy of the legal system. And achieving justice for all is the duty of all.”
Bush’s declaration was greeted with thunderous applause by the usual suspects who portray him as the virtuous Republican in contrast to Trump. While the media portrays Bush’s pious piffle as a visionary triumph of principle, Americans need to vividly recall the lies and atrocities that permeated his eight years as president.
In an October 2017 speech in a “national forum on liberty” at the George W. Bush Institute in New York City, Bush bemoaned that “Our politics seems more vulnerable to conspiracy theories and outright fabrication.” Coming from Bush, this had as much credibility as former president Bill Clinton bewailing the decline of chastity.
Most media coverage of Bush nowadays either ignores the falsehoods he used to take America to war in Iraq or portrays him as a good man who received incorrect information. But Bush was lying from the get-go on Iraq and was determined to drag the nation into another Middle East war.

Bush’s lies led to the killing of more than four thousand American troops and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians. But since those folks are dead and gone anyhow, the media instead lauds Bush’s selection to be in a Kennedy Center art show displaying his borderline primitive oil paintings.

Shortly after 9-11, Bush turned back the clock to before 1215 (when the Magna Carta was signed), formally suspending habeas corpus and claiming a prerogative to imprison indefinitely anyone he labeled a terrorist suspect. In 2002, Justice Department lawyers informed Bush that the president was entitled to violate the law during wartime — and the war on terror was expected to continue indefinitely.

Bush’s “enhanced interrogation” regime included endless high-volume repetition of a Meow Mix cat food commercial at Guantanamo, head slapping, waterboarding, exposure to frigid temperatures, and manacling for many hours in stress positions.
After the Supreme Court rebuffed some of Bush’s power grabs in 2006, he pushed through Congress a bill that retroactively legalized torture—one of the worst legislative disgraces since the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. During his years in the White House, Bush perennially denied that he had approved torture. But in 2010, during an author tour to promote his new memoir, he bragged about approving waterboarding for terrorist suspects.
Is Bush nominating himself to be the nation’s racial healer? When he was president, Bush inflicted more financial ruin on blacks than any president since Woodrow Wilson (who brought Jim Crow barbarities to the federal government).
Bush trumpeted his plans to close the gap between black and white homeownership rates and promised in 2002 to “use the mighty muscle of the federal government” to solve the problem. Bush was determined to end the bias against people who wanted to buy a home but had no money.
Congress passed Bush’s American Dream Downpayment Act in 2003, authorizing federal handouts to first-time homebuyers of up to $10,000 or 6 percent of the home’s purchase price. Bush also swayed Congress to permit the Federal Housing Administration to make no–down payment loans to low-income Americans.
Bush proclaimed: “Core American values of individuality, thrift, responsibility, and self-reliance are embodied in homeownership.”
In Bush’s eyes, self-reliance was so wonderful that the government should subsidize it. And it didn’t matter whether recipients were creditworthy, because politicians meant well. Bush’s 2004 reelection campaign trumpeted his down payment giveaways, a shining example of “compassionate conservatism.”
Thanks in large part to his policies, minority households saw the fastest growth in homeownership leading up to the 2007 recession. The housing collapse ravaged the net worth of black and Hispanic households.
“The implosion of the subprime lending market has left a scar on the finances of black Americans — one that not only has wiped out a generation of economic progress but could leave them at a financial disadvantage for decades,” the Washington Post reported in 2012.
The median net worth for Hispanic households declined by 66 percent between 2005 and 2009. That devastation was aptly described in a 2017 federal appeals court dissenting opinion as “wrecking ball benevolence” (quoting a 2004 Barron’s op-ed I wrote). But almost none of the media coverage of the ex-president reminds people of the economic carnage of this Bush vote-buying binge.
It is possible to condemn police brutality and, even more importantly, the evil laws and judicial doctrines that enable police to tyrannize other Americans without any help from a demagogic ex-president who ravaged our rights, liberties, and peace.
As I commented in an August 2003 USA Today op-ed, “Whether Bush and his appointees will be held personally liable for their [Iraq War] falsehoods is a grave test for American democracy.”
The revival of Bush’s reputation vivifies how our political media system failed that test. As long as George Bush doesn’t turn himself in for committing war crimes, all of his talk about “achieving justice for all” is rubbish.

humansarefree--2020-06-07--Is the Coronavirus Scare a Psychological Operation (Psy-Op)?

Governments have used psychological warfare throughout history to manipulate public opinion , gain political advantage , and generate profits .
Western governments have engaged in such tactics in the war on terrorism as well as in its predecessor , the war on communism .
In both cases , state-sponsored terrorism and propaganda were used to distort the public ’ s perception of the threats , leading to increased governmental control of society and huge financial benefits for corporations .
It appears that the same kinds of effects are being seen as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic .
Many of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ war on terrorism and the war on communism are evident in this new “ war on death.
” Therefore , it ’ s reasonable to wonder if the extreme response to COVID-19 , and its associated virus SARS-COV-2 , could be another psychological operation against the public .
Considering facts about the disease and the disproportionate response emphasizes the possibility .
If COVID-19 has been co-opted for manipulation of the public , through hyping the threat and pushing exploitive solutions , who is behind it and who benefits ?
Let ’ s first @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus scare ’ shares in common with the “ red scare ” that drove the perceived threat of communism and the “ Muslim scare ” behind the perceived threat of terrorism .
Here are a dozen characteristics that these perceived threats share .
• Series of claims made that are later proven false • Large increase in wealth and power for a few ; increase in social inequality • Increased government control of the public and reduced individual freedoms • Response kills far more than the original threat • Evidence for manufactured events @ @ @ @ @ @ @ differences between the COVID-19 pandemic response and the “ wars ” on communism and terrorism .
One difference is that , for the virus , agencies dedicated to public health have taken the lead .
Although the central characters that hyped the communism threat and the terrorism threat were sometimes the same people , they tended to represent military , diplomatic , or intelligence agencies .
The primary actors driving the coronavirus lockdowns and associated control mechanisms are political leaders .
However , the directives being acted upon come from the World Health @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the United Nations ostensibly responsible for international public health .
Others controlling the coronavirus scare are national health agencies , most notably the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ( CDC ) and the United Kingdom ’ s National Health Service ( NHS ) .
Are these agencies acting solely in the interest of public health ?
The common impression is that the entire matter began in reaction to events in China but even that is not clear .
For example , the virus is said to have originated in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ limited , lockdown occurred in that area from January to March .
China has since said that it warned the WHO about the virus during the first week of January .
However , it is known that U.S. intelligence agencies were aware of the potential outbreak even before that , in November 2019 .
A Chinese spokesman later suggested that the U.S. military might have brought the virus to Wuhan during the military games held there in October .
The first instance of an entire country being locked down for the coronavirus was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 9th based on advice from the Italian government ’ s coronavirus adviser Walter Ricciardi , who said , “ The situation risks going out of control and these measures are necessary to keep the spread at bay.
” Ricciardi , a WHO committee member , later admitted that Italy had inflated the death counts from the virus , stating : “ The way in which we code deaths in our country is very generous in the sense that all the people who die in hospitals with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the inordinate influence of billionaire Bill Gates on the activities and direction of the WHO .
As of 2017 , this influence was seen as troubling , with health advocates fearing that : “ because the Gates Foundation ’ s money comes from investments in big business , it could serve as a Trojan horse for corporate interests to undermine WHO ’ s role in setting standards and shaping health policies.
” Gates has been called a ruthless schemer by his Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and Allen is not alone in that assessment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ public charm offensive , ” Gates is seen by many as a predatory and monopolistic opportunist hiding behind a false front of philanthropy .
With regard to the coronavirus scare and Gates ’ stated goal of vaccinating the entire world population , however , people should be most concerned that he has worked diligently on mechanisms of population control .
Of course , no one person controls the world yet so who is supposed to be running WHO , apart from Bill Gates ?
The face of the WHO is Dr. Tedros Adhanom @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tedros has a poor history of ethics in leadership , with many accusations having been made against him including that he covered-up epidemics in the past .
Alarms about Tedros began to go off immediately after his appointment in 2017 , when he named Robert Mugabe , the former dictator of Zimbabwe , as a goodwill ambassador to the WHO .
Mugabe ’ s rule over Zimbabwe was dominated by “ murder , bloodshed , torture , persecution of political opponents , intimidation and vote-rigging on a grand scale.
” This appointment indicated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dubious at best .
A letter from a group of American doctors that same year described why Tedros has become known as “ Dr .
Cover Up.
” “ Your silence about what is clearly a massive cholera epidemic in Sudan daily becomes more reprehensible .
The inevitable history that will be written of this cholera epidemic will surely cast you in an unforgiving light.
” They added that Tedros was “ fully complicit in the terrible suffering and dying that continues to spread in East Africa.
” Problems at WHO didn ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ After the H1N1 pandemic of 2009 , evidence came to light that the WHO had exaggerated the danger and had spread fear and confusion rather than helpful information .
It was later learned that “ Italy , Germany , France and the U.K. made secret agreements with pharmaceutical companies ” that “ obliged the countries to buy vaccinations only if the WHO raised the pandemic to a level 6.
” The WHO then proceeded to change its guidelines for defining a pandemic in order to accommodate those contracts , thereby increasing the public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the pandemic never became a serious threat .
Although WHO has been praised for its work to reduce some illnesses like polio , it has also been found that drugs and vaccines recommended by WHO have been “ found to be harmful and without significant clinical effect.
” A comprehensive view suggests that the WHO is more of a corporate interest agency than an organization committed to preserving public health .
That ’ s not surprising due to the fact that 80 % of WHO ’ s funding comes from “ voluntary contributions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ companies and industry groups like Bill Gates ’ Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization ( GAVI ) .
nd since the worldwide response to COVID-19 has been directed and coordinated by an organization that works on behalf of multi-national corporations that stand to benefit , the idea that the coronavirus scare could be a psychological operation seems plausible .
In the US , the CDC is also heavily influenced by corporate and political interests .
This became clear when , in 2016 , a group of senior scientists within the CDC filed an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exact claim .
They wrote : “ It appears that our mission is being influenced and shaped by outside parties and rogue interests.
” The scientists noted that , in order to pursue political objectives , “ definitions were changed and data cooked ” at CDC , even to the point of misrepresenting data to Congress .
Like the WHO , the CDC has a history of pushing harmful vaccines .
An example was covered in a 60 Minutes episode exposing the harm done by the Swine Flu vaccine in 1976 and CDC @ @ @ @ @ @ @ injected with that harmful vaccine .
The report revealed that the illness was hyped based on very questionable data and the vaccine caused neurological damage .
The current Director of CDC is retired US Army doctor Robert Redfield , who is known for having led the Pentagon ’ s disastrous response to HIV-AIDS in the 1980s .
“ A devout catholic , Redfield saw AIDS as the product of an immoral society .
For many years , he championed a much-hyped remedy that was discredited in tests .
That debacle led to his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ Redfield is about the worst person you could think of to be heading the CDC at this time .
He lets his prejudices interfere with the science , which you can not afford during a pandemic.
” The CDC is an agency within the department of Health and Human Services ( HHS ) .
Alex Azar , a lawyer and former pharmaceutical company executive , was appointed as Secretary of HHS in 2017 .
Azar has deep connections to the pharmaceutical industry and is known for having engaged in price gouging with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ known for leading the HHS response to the anthrax scare of 2001 , the first known bioterrorism attack on the United States .
The anthrax attacks were targeted against members of Congress and the media that were dissenting voices in the national discussion about the Patriot Act , the oppressive legislation introduced immediately after the 9/11 attacks .
Although Muslims were first blamed through highly questionable evidence , it was ultimately found that the weaponized anthrax came from U.S. military laboratories .
Azar was instrumental in defining the National Biodefense Strategy in 2018 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump ’ s National Security Advisor .
Bolton , a neocon and member of the Project for a New American Century ( PNAC ) , has a long history of pushing authoritarian policies and war .
In the US the person most visibly in charge of the COVID-19 response is Anthony Fauci , who is the long-time director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases ( NIAID ) .
Like Redfield , Dr. Fauci is a Catholic and has said that values he learned in his Jesuit education continue to guide @ @ @ @ @ @ @ led the coronavirus response in the US , it was learned that his NIAID had funded “ gain of function ” research at the Wuhan laboratory where the SARS-COV-2 virus is suspected of having originated .
Fauci ’ s response to questions about that inexplicable coincidence was simply to denounce “ conspiracy theories ” rather than addressing the questions directly , much as others did when questioned about 9/11 foreknowledge .
Whether SARS-COV-2 was genetically engineered in a laboratory , like the NIAID-funded Wuhan lab , is a subject that has become of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ laboratory is not the only place the US supports work like this , however , as the Pentagon funds such labs in 25 countries across the world .
Located in places such as Eastern Europe , the Middle East , South East Asia , and Africa , these labs isolate and manipulate viruses like the bat coronaviruses from which SARS-COV-2 originated .
This bat-research program is further coordinated by a group called EcoHealth Alliance .
The manipulation of viruses for gain of function at US funded labs is , like the origin of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ evidence that bioterrorism and pandemics can be manufactured events .
This is another way in which the coronavirus scare could reflect the war on terrorism and war on communism , both of which were driven by manufactured terrorist events .
It is remarkable that Fauci funded work to manipulate coronaviruses then became the voice of the coronavirus pandemic response while also working closely with Bill Gates ’ GAVI initiative .
Fauci has boasted that NIAID and GAVI work together to push vaccines with “ outright collaboration between us in setting the standard of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ easier to see that a new pattern of hyped pandemics resulting in increased population control and global vaccinations is not only possible but would be a very lucrative business model .
By now it ’ s well known that the initial projections for deaths due to COVID-19 were massively overestimated and one academic paper was responsible for the panic .
The lead author of that paper , Neil Ferguson of Imperial College , has since resigned in disgrace from his government advisory position .
Much like the US government ’ s explanation for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , his estimates were based on computer models that can not be shared with the public .
As in the US , UK intelligence agencies have taken a leading role in managing the coronavirus scare .
The terrorism expert who is expected to be the next chief of MI6 was selected to lead a new “ biosecurity centre ” to evaluate the coronavirus threat and “ enable rapid intervention.
” Additionally , the UK intelligence agency known as Government Communication Headquarters ( GCHQ ) was granted powers over the NHS ’ s computer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in illegal activities related to population control mechanisms such as mass surveillance .
Totalitarian outcomes are further enabled with billionaire Peter Thiel ’ s CIA-initiated company Palantir managing the databases used by both the CDC and UK ’ s NHS that drive COVID-19 decision making .
For perspective , in 2009 , Thiel said , “ I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible , ” providing another clue that public health and awareness are not the main priorities behind the coronavirus scare .
The data behind the COVID-19 pandemic was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inaccurate , government policies inflating the death counts , and the media focusing solely on fear-based predictions that are repeatedly proven false .
Recently , scientists and government leaders from other countries , including Russia , Germany and Denmark , have begun speaking out about how the coronavirus threat has been exaggerated .
The outcomes of the coronavirus scare have included huge windfalls for billionaires , financial institutions , and corporations .
Legislation being passed in response to COVID-19 is largely beneficial to corporate interests .
The outcomes for everyone else have been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of freedoms , grave risks to democracy , and death .
How this is possible is related to the fact that governments , and the nations they represent , are no longer what they were .
In many ways , corporations have replaced governments as the drivers of public policy and , as with Peter Thiel ’ s Palantir , the public ’ s interest is not their concern .
Meanwhile , over two dozen companies have become larger and more powerful than many national governments .
As a result , governments are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decisions they make , for example to lockdown citizens and remake their economies , are driven by profit-based strategies indifferent to public interests .
In summary , the features and outcomes of the coronavirus scare reflect those of previous psychological operations including the war on terrorism and its predecessor , the war on communism .
The people and agencies driving the coronavirus scare have a history of unethical behaviors , including hyping pandemics to push vaccines , and appear to seek long-term profits through implementation of a highly controlled society .
Therefore , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virus itself , can be seen as a psychological operation used to drive those outcomes .

Governments have used psychological warfare throughout history to manipulate public opinion, gain political advantage, and generate profits. Western governments have engaged in such tactics in the war on terrorism as well as in its predecessor, the war on communism.
In both cases, state-sponsored terrorism and propaganda were used to distort the public’s perception of the threats, leading to increased governmental control of society and huge financial benefits for corporations.
It appears that the same kinds of effects are being seen as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Many of the features and outcomes seen in the war on terrorism and the war on communism are evident in this new “war on death.”
Therefore, it’s reasonable to wonder if the extreme response to COVID-19, and its associated virus SARS-COV-2, could be another psychological operation against the public.
Considering facts about the disease and the disproportionate response emphasizes the possibility.
If COVID-19 has been co-opted for manipulation of the public, through hyping the threat and pushing exploitive solutions, who is behind it and who benefits?
Let’s first review what features and outcomes the “coronavirus scare’ shares in common with the “red scare” that drove the perceived threat of communism and the “Muslim scare” behind the perceived threat of terrorism. Here are a dozen characteristics that these perceived threats share.
There are also differences between the COVID-19 pandemic response and the “wars” on communism and terrorism. One difference is that, for the virus, agencies dedicated to public health have taken the lead. Although the central characters that hyped the communism threat and the terrorism threat were sometimes the same people, they tended to represent military, diplomatic, or intelligence agencies.
The primary actors driving the coronavirus lockdowns and associated control mechanisms are political leaders. However, the directives being acted upon come from the World Health Organization (WHO), an agency of the United Nations ostensibly responsible for international public health.
Others controlling the coronavirus scare are national health agencies, most notably the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS).
Are these agencies acting solely in the interest of public health?
The WHO
The common impression is that the entire matter began in reaction to events in China but even that is not clear. For example, the virus is said to have originated in the city of Wuhan and the first, limited, lockdown occurred in that area from January to March.
China has since said that it warned the WHO about the virus during the first week of January. However, it is known that U.S. intelligence agencies were aware of the potential outbreak even before that, in November 2019. A Chinese spokesman later suggested that the U.S. military might have brought the virus to Wuhan during the military games held there in October.
The first instance of an entire country being locked down for the coronavirus was in Italy. This occurred on March 9th based on advice from the Italian government’s coronavirus adviser Walter Ricciardi, who said, “The situation risks going out of control and these measures are necessary to keep the spread at bay.”
Ricciardi, a WHO committee member, later admitted that Italy had inflated the death counts from the virus, stating:
“The way in which we code deaths in our country is very generous in the sense that all the people who die in hospitals with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying of the coronavirus.”
Many have noted the inordinate influence of billionaire Billy Boy on the activities and direction of the WHO. As of 2017, this influence was seen as troubling, with health advocates fearing that:
“because the Gates Foundation’s money comes from investments in big business, it could serve as a Trojan horse for corporate interests to undermine WHO’s role in setting standards and shaping health policies.”
Gates has been called a ruthless schemer by his Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and Allen is not alone in that assessment.
Despite engaging in a costly “public charm offensive,” Gates is seen by many as a predatory and monopolistic opportunist hiding behind a false front of philanthropy. With regard to the coronavirus scare and Gates’ stated goal of jjabing the entire world population, however, people should be most concerned that he has worked diligently on mechanisms of population control.
Of course, no one person controls the world yet so who is supposed to be running WHO, apart from Billy Boy? The face of the WHO is Dr. Tedros Adhanom, the director-general of the organization. Tedros has a poor history of ethics in leadership, with many accusations having been made against him including that he covered-up epidemics in the past.
Alarms about Tedros began to go off immediately after his appointment in 2017, when he named Robert Mugabe, the former dictator of Zimbabwe, as a goodwill ambassador to the WHO. Mugabe’s rule over Zimbabwe was dominated by “murder, bloodshed, torture, persecution of political opponents, intimidation and vote-rigging on a grand scale.” This appointment indicated that Tedros’ judgment of goodwill was dubious at best.
A letter from a group of American doctors that same year described why Tedros has become known as “Dr. Cover Up.”
They wrote:
“Your silence about what is clearly a massive cholera epidemic in Sudan daily becomes more reprehensible. The inevitable history that will be written of this cholera epidemic will surely cast you in an unforgiving light.”
They added that Tedros was “fully complicit in the terrible suffering and dying that continues to spread in East Africa.”
Problems at WHO didn’t start with Tedros, however.
After the H1N1 pandemic of 2009, evidence came to light that the WHO had exaggerated the danger and had spread fear and confusion rather than helpful information. It was later learned that “Italy, Germany, France and the U.K. made secret agreements with pharmaceutical companies” that “obliged the countries to buy vaccinations only if the WHO raised the pandemic to a level 6.”
The WHO then proceeded to change its guidelines for defining a pandemic in order to accommodate those contracts, thereby increasing the public’s fear despite the fact that the pandemic never became a serious threat.
Although WHO has been praised for its work to reduce some illnesses like polio, it has also been found that drugs and jjabs recommended by WHO have been “found to be harmful and without significant clinical effect.”
A comprehensive view suggests that the WHO is more of a corporate interest agency than an organization committed to preserving public health. That’s not surprising due to the fact that 80% of WHO’s funding comes from “voluntary contributions” provided by private donors including pharmaceutical companies and industry groups like Billy Boy’ Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI).
nd since the worldwide response to COVID-19 has been directed and coordinated by an organization that works on behalf of multi-national corporations that stand to benefit, the idea that the coronavirus scare could be a psychological operation seems plausible.
The CDC
In the US, the CDC is also heavily influenced by corporate and political interests. This became clear when, in 2016, a group of senior scientists within the CDC filed an ethics complaint against the agency making that exact claim. They wrote:
“It appears that our mission is being influenced and shaped by outside parties and rogue interests.”
The scientists noted that, in order to pursue political objectives, “definitions were changed and data cooked” at CDC, even to the point of misrepresenting data to Congress.
Like the WHO, the CDC has a history of pushing harmful jjabs. An example was covered in a 60 Minutes episode exposing the harm done by the Swine Flu jjab in 1976 and CDC’s urging that all Americans be injected with that harmful jjab. The report revealed that the illness was hyped based on very questionable data and the jjab caused neurological damage.
The current Director of CDC is retired US Army doctor Robert Redfield, who is known for having led the Pentagon’s disastrous response to HIV-AIDS in the 1980s.
“A devout catholic, Redfield saw AIDS as the product of an immoral society. For many years, he championed a much-hyped remedy that was discredited in tests. That debacle led to his removal from the job in 1994.”
Public health reporter Laurie Garrett remarked:
“Redfield is about the worst person you could think of to be heading the CDC at this time. He lets his prejudices interfere with the science, which you cannot afford during a pandemic.”
The CDC is an agency within the department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Alex Azar, a lawyer and former pharmaceutical company executive, was appointed as Secretary of HHS in 2017. Azar has deep connections to the pharmaceutical industry and is known for having engaged in price gouging with his former employer.
Azar is also known for leading the HHS response to the anthrax scare of 2001, the first known bioterrorism attack on the United States. The anthrax attacks were targeted against members of Congress and the media that were dissenting voices in the national discussion about the Patriot Act, the oppressive legislation introduced immediately after the 9/11 attacks.
Although Muslims were first blamed through highly questionable evidence, it was ultimately found that the weaponized anthrax came from U.S. military laboratories.
Azar was instrumental in defining the National Biodefense Strategy in 2018, working closely with John Bolton, Trump’s National Security Advisor. Bolton, a neocon and member of the Project for a New American Century (PNAC), has a long history of pushing authoritarian policies and war.
In the US the person most visibly in charge of the COVID-19 response is Anthony Fauci, who is the long-time director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Like Redfield, Dr. Fauci is a Catholic and has said that values he learned in his Jesuit education continue to guide him.
After weeks of Fauci having led the coronavirus response in the US, it was learned that his NIAID had funded “gain of function” research at the Wuhan laboratory where the SARS-COV-2 virus is suspected of having originated.
Fauci’s response to questions about that inexplicable coincidence was simply to denounce “conspiracy theories” rather than addressing the questions directly, much as others did when questioned about 9/11 foreknowledge.
Whether SARS-COV-2 was genetically engineered in a laboratory, like the NIAID-funded Wuhan lab, is a subject that has become of interest to many scientists.
The Wuhan laboratory is not the only place the US supports work like this, however, as the Pentagon funds such labs in 25 countries across the world. Located in places such as Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Africa, these labs isolate and manipulate viruses like the bat coronaviruses from which SARS-COV-2 originated. This bat-research program is further coordinated by a group called EcoHealth Alliance.
The manipulation of viruses for gain of function at US funded labs is, like the origin of the weaponized anthrax at US labs, evidence that bioterrorism and pandemics can be manufactured events. This is another way in which the coronavirus scare could reflect the war on terrorism and war on communism, both of which were driven by manufactured terrorist events.
It is remarkable that Fauci funded work to manipulate coronaviruses then became the voice of the coronavirus pandemic response while also working closely with Billy Boy’ GAVI initiative. Fauci has boasted that NIAID and GAVI work together to push jjabs with “outright collaboration between us in setting the standard of what is needed.”
This makes it easier to see that a new pattern of hyped pandemics resulting in increased population control and global vaccinations is not only possible but would be a very lucrative business model.
The NHS and Corporate Nations
By now it’s well known that the initial projections for deaths due to COVID-19 were massively overestimated and one academic paper was responsible for the panic.
The lead author of that paper, Neil Ferguson of Imperial College, has since resigned in disgrace from his government advisory position. Much like the US government’s explanation for destruction of the World Trade Center buildings, his estimates were based on computer models that cannot be shared with the public.
As in the US, UK intelligence agencies have taken a leading role in managing the coronavirus scare. The terrorism expert who is expected to be the next chief of MI6 was selected to lead a new “biosecurity centre” to evaluate the coronavirus threat and “enable rapid intervention.”
Additionally, the UK intelligence agency known as Government Communication Headquarters (GCHQ) was granted powers over the NHS’s computer systems. GCHQ is known for engaging in illegal activities related to population control mechanisms such as mass surveillance.
Totalitarian outcomes are further enabled with billionaire Peter Thiel’s CIA-initiated company Palantir managing the databases used by both the CDC and UK’s NHS that drive COVID-19 decision making.
For perspective, in 2009, Thiel said, “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible,” providing another clue that public health and awareness are not the main priorities behind the coronavirus scare.
The data behind the COVID-19 pandemic was never reliable, with test kits being inaccurate, government policies inflating the death counts, and the media focusing solely on fear-based predictions that are repeatedly proven false.
Recently, scientists and government leaders from other countries, including Russia, Germany and Denmark, have begun speaking out about how the coronavirus threat has been exaggerated.
The outcomes of the coronavirus scare have included huge windfalls for billionaires, financial institutions, and corporations. Legislation being passed in response to COVID-19 is largely beneficial to corporate interests. The outcomes for everyone else have been fear, unemployment, poverty, loss of freedoms, grave risks to democracy, and death.
How this is possible is related to the fact that governments, and the nations they represent, are no longer what they were. In many ways, corporations have replaced governments as the drivers of public policy and, as with Peter Thiel’s Palantir, the public’s interest is not their concern. Meanwhile, over two dozen companies have become larger and more powerful than many national governments.
As a result, governments are now false fronts for corporations and the decisions they make, for example to lockdown citizens and remake their economies, are driven by profit-based strategies indifferent to public interests.
In summary, the features and outcomes of the coronavirus scare reflect those of previous psychological operations including the war on terrorism and its predecessor, the war on communism.
The people and agencies driving the coronavirus scare have a history of unethical behaviors, including hyping pandemics to push jjabs, and appear to seek long-term profits through implementation of a highly controlled society. Therefore, the response to COVID-19, if not the virus itself, can be seen as a psychological operation used to drive those outcomes.
