21stcenturywire--2020-07-01--Question: Who Killed More – Hitler, Stalin, or Mao?

It ’ s a bone of contention which regularly features in today ’ s debates between the political left and and conservatives : who was the biggest mass murdering political leader of the 20th century ?
Many might assume that it is Nazi Germany ’ s mercurial Adolf Hitler with the Holocaust , while others might opine that ’ s communist icon and Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin , whose terror famine that likely took more lives than the Holocaust .
However , both seem to be trumped by Communist China ’ s Mao Zedong , whose “ Great Leap Forward @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leap backward in terms of Chinese history and human development .
Ian Johnson of the New York Review of Books writes… In 2011 , Timothy Snyder asked the provocative question : Who killed more , Hitler or Stalin ?
As useful as that exercise in moral rigor was , some think the question itself might have been slightly off .

Ian Johnson of the New York Review of Books writes…
In 2011, Timothy Snyder asked the provocative question: Who killed more, Hitler or Stalin? As useful as that exercise in moral rigor was, some think the question itself might have been slightly off. Instead, it should have included a third tyrant of the twentieth century, Chairman Mao. And not just that, but that Mao should have been the hands-down winner, with his ledger easily trumping the European dictators’.
While these questions can devolve into morbid pedantry, they raise moral questions that deserve a fresh look, especially as 2018 marked the sixtieth anniversary of the launch of Mao’s most infamous experiment in social engineering, the Great Leap Forward. It was this campaign that caused the deaths of tens of millions and catapulted Mao Zedong into the big league of twentieth-century murders.
But Mao’s mistakes are more than a chance to reflect on the past. They are also now part of a central debate in Xi Jinping’s China, where the Communist Party is renewing a long-standing battle to protect its legitimacy by limiting discussions of Mao.
The immediate catalyst for the Great Leap Forward took place in late 1957 when Mao visited Moscow for the grand celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the October Revolution (another interesting contrast to recent months, with discussion of its centenary stifled in Moscow and largely ignored in Beijing).
The Soviet leader, Nikita Khrushchev, had already annoyed Mao by criticizing Stalin, whom Mao regarded as one of the great figures of Communist history. If even Stalin could be purged, Mao could be challenged, too. In addition, the Soviet Union had just launched the world’s first satellite, Sputnik, which Mao felt overshadowed his accomplishments. He returned to Beijing eager to assert China’s position as the world’s leading Communist nation. This, along with his general impatience, spurred a series of increasingly reckless decisions that led to the worst famine in history.
The first signs of Mao’s designs came on January 1, 1958, when the Communist Party’s mouthpiece, People’s Daily, published an article calling for “going all out” and “aiming higher”—code phrases for putting aside patient economic development in favor of radical policies aimed at rapid growth.
Mao drove home his plans in a series of meetings over the next months, including a crucial one—from January 11 to 20 in the southern Chinese city of Nanning—that changed the Communist Party’s political culture. Until that moment, Mao had been first among equals, but moderates had often been able to rein him in. Then, in several extraordinary outbursts, he accused any leader who opposed “rash advance” of being counter-revolutionary. As became the pattern of his reign, no one successfully stood up to him.
Having silenced party opposition, Mao pushed for the creation of communes—effectively nationalizing farmers’ property. People were to eat in canteens and share agricultural equipment, livestock, and production, with food allocated by the state. Local party leaders were ordered to obey fanciful ideas for increasing crop yields, such as planting crops closer together. The idea was to create China’s own Sputnik—harvests astronomically greater than any in human history.
This might have resulted in no more harm than local officials’ falsifying statistics to meet quotas, except that the state relied on these numbers to calculate taxes on farmers. To meet their taxes, farmers were forced to send any grain they had to the state as if they were producing these insanely high yields. Ominously, officials also confiscated seed grain to meet their targets. So, while storehouses bulged with grain, farmers had nothing to eat and nothing to plant the next spring.
Compounding this crisis were equally deluded plans to bolster steel production through the creation of “backyard furnaces”—small coal- or wood-fired kilns that were somehow supposed to create steel out of iron ore. Unable to produce real steel, local party officials ordered farmers to melt down their agricultural implements to satisfy Mao’s national targets. The result was that farmers had no grain, no seeds, and no tools. Famine set in.
When, in 1959, Mao was challenged about these events at a party conference, he purged his enemies. Enveloped by an atmosphere of terror, officials returned to China’s provinces to double down on Mao’s policies. Tens of millions died.
No independent historian doubts that tens of millions died during the Great Leap Forward, but the exact numbers, and how one reconciles them, have remained matters of debate. The overall trend, though, has been to raise the figure, despite pushback from Communist Party revisionists and a few Western sympathizers.
On the Chinese side, this involves a cottage industry of Mao apologists willing to do whatever it takes to keep the Mao name sacred: historians working at Chinese institutions who argue that the numbers have been inflated by bad statistical work. Their most prominent spokesperson is Sun Jingxian, a mathematician at Shandong University and Jiangsu Normal University. He attributes changes in China’s population during this period as due to faulty statistics, changes in how households were registered, and a series of other obfuscatory factors. His conclusion: famine killed only 3.66 million people. This contradicts almost every other serious effort at accounting for the effects of Mao’s changes.
The first reliable scholarly estimates derived from the pioneering work of the demographer Judith Banister, who in 1987 used Chinese demographic statistics to come up with the remarkably durable estimate of 30 million, and the journalist Jasper Becker, who in his 1996 work Hungry Ghosts gave these numbers a human dimension and offered a clear, historical analysis of the events. At the most basic level, the early works took the net decline in China’s population during this period and added to that the decline in the birth rate—a classic effect of famine. Later scholars refined this methodology by looking at local histories compiled by government offices that gave very detailed accounts of famine conditions. Triangulating these two sources of information results in estimates that start in the mid-20 millions and go up to 45 million.
Two more recent accounts give what are widely regarded as the most credible numbers. One, in 2008, is by the Chinese journalist Yang Jisheng, who estimates that 35 million died. Hong Kong University’s Frank Dikötter has a higher but equally plausible estimate of 45 million. Besides adjusting the numbers upward, Dikötter and others have made another important point: many deaths were violent. Communist Party officials beat to death anyone suspected of hoarding grain, or people who tried to escape the death farms by traveling to cities.
Regardless of how one views these revisions, the Great Leap Famine was by far the largest famine in history. It was also man-made—and not because of war or disease, but by government policies that were flawed and recognized as such at the time by reasonable people in the Chinese government…

Fact: any vaccine can cause side effects. Still, the pharmaceutical industry and the politicians in their pay will argue that the benefits of getting a vaccine are much greater than the possible side effects. Typically, creating a working vaccine for mass adoption would take at least 4 years, but today the public are being told that “we simply can’t wait,” and that standard safety testing and research should be bypassed in order to fast track a new adjuvant vaccine for COVID-19.
International best-selling author, Dr Vernon Coleman MB ChB DSc FRSA, describes precisely why we cannot trust the companies making vaccines. He lists scandal after scandal and explains why he won’t accept a coronavirus vaccination. Watch:

WFP chief David Beasley said people in both opposition-controlled areas and government-controlled areas are in urgent need .
The shortages are due to many factors , including the nine-year war , US sanctions on Syria , and the coronavirus pandemic .

The head of the UN’s World Food Programme (WFP) said on Monday that millions of Syrians are facing food shortages, and half of the country’s population goes to bed hungry. WFP chief David Beasley said people in both opposition-controlled areas and government-controlled areas are in urgent need.
The shortages are due to many factors, including the nine-year war, US sanctions on Syria, and the coronavirus pandemic. “We’ve got people on the brink of starvation now, and they can’t wait. People will die, and people are dying as we speak,” Beasley said.
Food prices in Syria are the highest they have been since the war started in 2011. The Syrian currency recently collapsed mainly due to new US sanctions, which took effect two weeks ago. Syria was already under heavy US sanctions, but the new measures can target anyone, regardless of nationality, who invests in the country. The new sanctions discourage Syria’s neighbors, like Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq, from helping the reconstruction effort.
Beasley said borders with Turkey and Lebanon must be open to facilitate aid deliveries to opposition-controlled parts of Syria and government-controlled areas, which is where the majority of Syrians live.
Another group of aid organizations released a statement on Monday on Syria that echoed Beasley’s comments. “A staggering 9.3 million Syrians are now going to sleep hungry and more than another 2 million are at risk of a similar fate,” aid groups Oxfam, Humanity & Inclusion, CARE International, World Vision International, International Rescue Committee, Mercy Corps, and the Norwegian Refugee Council said in a joint statement.
The statements come ahead of a donor conference that will take place on Tuesday, where aid groups will work to secure more funding. The WFP has already made cuts to Syria and other war-torn countries, including Yemen.

We’re told that a race to find a COVID-19 vaccine is well underway, led by software oligarch Bill Gates who is promising to provide 7 billion doses for every man, woman and child on the planet. Promises for a likely time frame have ranged from 3 months, to 18 months, to 3 years, depending on who’s talking.
With so many pharmaceutical firms and institutions receiving cash injections from governments, and with shareholders salivating over the potential profits, there is serious concern as to whether any rushed vaccine effort can be both safe or effective. Many experts agree there is a much higher risk of failure due to the fact that government regulators are allowing Big Pharma to skip animal trials and going straight to human trials – not allowing sufficient time to conduct long-term studies as to immune system reactions and health side effects of any new experimental product.
Even the World Health Organization (WHO) itself has chosen its words carefully so as to not endorse or advocate for any particular vaccine project listed in its Vaccine Landscape document which lists all of the various programs globally. Throughout history, the Pharma industry has never been able to develop a workable coronavirus vaccine. WHO added this disclaimer its introduction:

On top of all this, there is an increasing public backlash to the idea of mandatory vaccinations for COVID-19.
With all of these problematic variables at play, Canadian researchers are now attempting to ease the process by creating an edible COVID vaccine.

What could possibly go wrong?

Eating your veggies isn’t only good for you — it may someday protect you against COVID-19.
That’s the hope of a plant biologist at the University of Ottawa who’s working to create an edible vaccine for the novel coronavirus.
Allyson MacLean’s research involves injecting tomato, potato and lettuce plants with a tiny particle of viral DNA swimming in a bacterial solution.
“We take a syringe that does not have a needle point. You press it up against the large leaf … and you basically push … the bacteria into the plant tissues,” said MacLean, 41, an assistant professor of plant biology.
The bacteria piggyback that DNA into the plant, which triggers the production of viral proteins. Eating the plant allows these proteins to pass through the digestive system, where they’re taken up by special cells in the gut, stimulating a type of immunity.
It’s called “mucosal immunity,” and it’s of particular interest to the scientists currently joined in battle with COVID-19 because the virus that causes the disease, SARS-CoV-2, enters the body via the mucosal surface of the respiratory system.
Rooted in nature
MacLean has spent a decade researching symbiosis in nature, specifically how microbes and plants co-exist. One of the most common microbes is Agrobacterium tumefaciens, which lives in soil and naturally latches onto plants.
“It finds a wound in the plant and it gets in there. It takes part of its DNA and injects it into a plant cell. It basically makes the plant cells grow tumours … that the bacteria can then use as a food source,” MacLean explained.
“People realized a few decades ago that this was going on in nature,” she said. “Somebody had the brilliant idea: OK, can we harness this as a way of making genetically modified organisms?”
In her current research to create an edible vaccine for COVID-19, MacLean is using “parts of the virus that other researchers believe will elicit a strong protective antibody response.” They’re catching a ride into the plant tissue on the back of her old friend Agrobacterium.
At this point in the research, MacLean is using a close relative of tobacco to determine the best way to make a plant express the viral proteins. Next stop, lettuce…

21stcenturywire--2020-07-01--COVID: Renewed Government-Media Hype Over “Cases” Doesn’t Prove There’s a Pandemic

You might have noticed there is a renewed pandemonium over new coronavirus “ outbreaks ” seemingly popping up everywhere around the country .
This is naturally stoking more panic and fear , as well as calls to lockdown communities once again .
If you are looking closely , you ’ ll be able to read between the pedantic propaganda lines and quickly dispel a lot of the hype being promulgated by technocrats and other opportunists .
Their reporting usually follows a familiar pattern ; Step one : it starts off with a seemingly routine announcement like this , from a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We have seen this gradual increase over the last several weeks , ” said Dr. Michael Johnson , Director of Community Health with the Southern Nevada Health District.
” Quickly , it becomes clear that the “ spike ” in COVID cases is because of increase testing : “ In addition to increased testing and increased cases , confirmed hospitalizations have had an overall increasing trend since May 31 , ” Caleb Cage said .
Finally , they will sometimes reveal a crucial fact which is normally obscured from the conversation of any @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cases ” : “ Despite the increase – the hospitals aren ’ t at a tipping point .
Statewide hospital occupancy rates are averaging 74 % capacity for all patients .
ICU occupancy is averaging 69 % for all patients.
” From this very typical news report ( which you could drop into the same template almost anywhere around the US or UK right now ) , smart readers will see that these dramatic reports of ‘ cases ’ do not mean much in terms of a general threat to public health .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to inform the public one fundamental component which would quickly disarm any of these endless alarmist reports of COVID ‘ outbreaks ’ – which is that all of these ‘ cases ’ are not translating into the statistics which are actually important , namely , hospitalizations and deaths .
This is because the overwhelming majority of COVID fatalities have been in one specific demographic : elderly people with multiple comorbidities .
In fact , the odds of a young person actually being hospitalized for coronavirus are significantly less that getting in an automobile @ @ @ @ @ @ @ risk of being set upon by influenza or numerous other common viruses .
COVID simply doesn ’ t rate among the most common things which which pose a serious threat to young people , or even middle aged people for that matter .
Medical journalist Jon Rappaport reveals where the real focus should be if the media were being honest and doing their job professionally : The New York Times ( June 27 ) is reporting that 43 percent of all US COVID deaths are occurring in nursing homes and other long-term care @ @ @ @ @ @ @ least 24 states , more than 50 percent of all COVID deaths are occurring in these facilities .
The Times fails to mention deaths of the elderly at hospitals or , at home , cut off from family and friends .
The situation is far worse than the Times makes it out to be .
Hence , these type of graphs stoking fear over ‘ cases ’ among the young are almost completely meaningless : This Government-Media propaganda strategy is merely designed to extend the life of the crisis , and also to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ officials into imposing new regional lockdowns on demand – just as they have done this week in Leicester , England .
Remember this when reading the alarmist COVID coverage in the coming weeks and months .

You might have noticed there is renewed pandemonium over new coronavirus “outbreaks” seemingly popping up everywhere around the country. This is naturally stoking more panic and fear, as well as calls to lockdown communities once again.
If you are looking closely, you’ll be able to read between the pedantic propaganda lines and quickly dispel a lot of the hype being promulgated by technocrats and other opportunists. Their reporting usually follows a familiar pattern;
Step one: it starts off with a seemingly routine announcement like this, from a report by KSNV in Nevada:
“We have seen this gradual increase over the last several weeks,” said Dr. Michael Johnson, Director of Community Health with the Southern Nevada Health District.”
Quickly, it becomes clear that the “spike” in COVID cases is because of increase testing:
“In addition to increased testing and increased cases, confirmed hospitalizations have had an overall increasing trend since May 31,” Caleb Cage said.
Finally, they will sometimes reveal a crucial fact which is normally obscured from the conversation of any report of a COVID “outbreak in cases”:
“Despite the increase – the hospitals aren’t at a tipping point. Statewide hospital occupancy rates are averaging 74% capacity for all patients. ICU occupancy is averaging 69% for all patients.”
(It’s not uncommon that mainstream media coverage will contradict itself like this in the same article. This is a common propaganda technique which is designed to leave the average reader bewildered and confused)
From this very typical news report (which you could drop into the same template almost anywhere around the US or UK right now), smart readers will see that these dramatic reports of ‘cases’ do not mean much in terms of a general threat to public health. Government and mainstream media will always omit to inform the public one fundamental component which would quickly disarm any of these endless alarmist reports of COVID ‘outbreaks’ – which is that all of these ‘cases’ are not translating into the statistics which are actually important, namely, hospitalizations and deaths. This is because the overwhelming majority of COVID fatalities have been in one specific demographic: elderly people with multiple comorbidities. In fact, the odds of a young person actually being hospitalized for coronavirus are significantly less that getting in an automobile accident, while they are at greater risk of being set upon by influenza or numerous other common viruses. COVID simply doesn’t rate among the most common things which pose a serious threat to young people, or even middle aged people for that matter.
Medical journalist Jon Rappaport reveals where the real focus should be if the media were being honest and doing their job professionally:
The New York Times (June 27) is reporting that 43 percent of all US COVID deaths are occurring in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities for the elderly. In at least 24 states, more than 50 percent of all COVID deaths are occurring in these facilities. The Times fails to mention deaths of the elderly at hospitals or, at home, cut off from family and friends. The situation is far worse than the Times makes it out to be.
Hence, these type of graphs stoking fear over ‘cases’ among the young are almost completely meaningless:
This Government-Media propaganda strategy is merely designed to extend the life of the crisis, and also to use as a tool to intimidate local officials into imposing new regional lockdowns on demand – just as they have done this week in Leicester, England.
Remember this when reading the alarmist COVID coverage in the coming weeks and months.

SEATTLE – Early Wednesday morning, Seattle police moved on the “Capitol Hill Occupied Protest” (CHOP) and its inhabitants – a nearly month-long social justice mob experiment from which city leaders initially backed down in the wake of nationwide Black Lives Matter protests sparked by the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd.
CHOP was met at dawn with heavy police presence in riot gear and tactical vehicles as barricades were removed to restore order to the city’s upper east side, AP reported.
Watch as police and city workers begin to clear the protest zone:
Just a few weeks ago, Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan announced that police would soon be dismantling CHAZ-CHOP – a sudden ‘U-Turn’ in policy after calling for a “summer of love” in the occupied area.
Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said in a statement that CHOP has become “lawless and brutal” and would enforce the Mayor’s executive order:

SEATTLE – A 16-year-old boy was killed and another 14-year-old was critically wounded early Monday morning after being shot by radical leftist vigilante ‘security’ in Seattle notorious CHAZ-CHOP “autonomous zone” in the city’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.
This was not the first fatal shooting which has taken place recently in the anarchist enclave inspired by Black Live Matter.
The incident has amplified calls for Mayor Jenny Durken to take back the East Precinct she and disgraced police Chief Carmen Best had handed over in order to appease angry mobs just 4 weeks ago.
Not surprisingly, their epic failure to protect the city’s residents has prompted calls for their resignation.
As a result of their disastrous decision, even liberal left-leaning residents are now questioning the legitimacy of a local government who allowed a lawless camp to take over 7 blocks in a prestigious American metropolitan city.
Seattle Times reports…
Monday’s fatal shooting also raised concerns from protesters and Black clergy members alike about the city’s response to the protest zone, with debates about what should be done next erupting later in the morning near the scene.
CHOP stands for Capitol Hill Organized Protest. Demonstrators have occupied several blocks around the Police Department’s East Precinct and Cal Anderson Park for about three weeks, since the police left the precinct following standoffs and clashes with protesters calling for racial justice and an end to police brutality.
Harborview Medical Center spokesperson Susan Gregg said two people were brought in with gunshot wounds Monday morning, with one arriving in a private vehicle around 3:15 a.m. and the other brought in by Seattle Fire Department medics about 15 minutes later.
(…) Protesters in the area on Monday morning defended the occupation, saying it wasn’t the cause of the violence.
Action Institute reports…
Seattle’s inability to enforce the bargain they struck with an “autonomous” power is the least of its failures. By allowing the establishment of a “cop-free” zone, Seattle has engaged in numerous acts of malfeasance and nonfeasance. They include:
Not protecting residents’ safety. Shortly after the establishment of CHAZ/CHOP, Seattle Police Department Chief Carmen Best said that 911 “calls for service have more than tripled.” This included “emergency calls — rapes, robberies, and all sorts of violent acts that have been occurring in the area that we’re not able to get to.”
The mayor’s office issued a statement meant to calm fears, which essentially confirmed the state of anarchy. City police will respond only to “significant life-safety issues within the CHAZ/CHOP,” such as “an active shooter incident, an assault, a structure fire, significant medical emergency (i.e. heart attack, stroke, trauma) and other incidents that threaten a person’s life safety.” Otherwise, SPD promises only that it “will attempt to coordinate officer contact outside of these boundaries when safe and feasible.” Meanwhile, the city’s fire department has helpfully “advised businesses in the area on how to proactively remove combustibles, such as removing garbage and recycling on a daily basis to minimize the risk of intentionally set fires spreading.”

The New York Times ( June 27 ) is reporting that 43 percent of all US COVID deaths are occurring in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities for the elderly .
In at least 24 states , more than 50 percent of all COVID deaths are occurring in these facilities .
The Times fails to mention deaths of the elderly at hospitals or , at home , cut off from family and friends .
The situation is far @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be .
Continuing my series of articles on the killing of the elderly—which IS what “ COVID ” IS .
The medical establishment is facing the embarrassing and devastating fact that a huge percentage of so-called COVID deaths are occurring in nursing homes .
The elderly are dying prematurely .
And not only in nursing homes .
In hospitals , and alone in their apartments .
All told , huge numbers of old people are dying premature deaths .
It ’ s obvious these patients have many serious and long-standing health conditions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus .
They ’ ve been treated for decades with toxic medical drugs .
Their immune systems are severely compromised .
THEN they ’ re terrified when they ’ re handed a diagnosis of COVID-19 based on fraudulent tests , or no tests at all .
They ’ re shut off completely from the outside world .
No family or friends are permitted to see them .
So the elderly die .
You want to see some astonishing numbers ?
Let ’ s go to the “ epicenter.
” New York City .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ at the latest figures available .
As of May 13 , take these two age groups—65 to 74 , and 75 and older—and together they account for a staggering 73.6 percent of all COVID deaths in the city .
The 75 and older group accounts , all on its own , for 48.7 percent of all COVID deaths in the city .
For THIS , New York is on lockdown .
Boarded up .
Imprisoned .
Economically torpedoed and devastated .
With two ignoramus-vampires—Governor Cuomo and Mayor De Blasio—hovering over its shoulders .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ deaths of the elderly , the fiction of New York as “ the epicenter of COVID ” would blow away in the wind in five minutes .
In case you missed it , in a piece I wrote a few days ago , I added yet one more factor to the murderous New York formula : The Hill , undated ( late April 2020 ) , reporting on “ data…gathered at Northwell Health , New York state ’ s largest hospital system .
The study , published in the Journal of the American @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patients hospitalized with coronavirus infections in the New York City region , with final outcomes recorded for 2,634 patients .
The average patient age was 63 years old… For the next oldest age group , ages 66 years and older , patients receiving mechanical [ breathing ] ventilation recorded a 97.2 percent mortality rate.
” Just in case all the other obvious factors failed to produce premature death in the elderly , ventilators provided the method .
Don ’ t even think of saying , “ Well , you see , those old @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sick and close to dying.
” NO medical treatment that kills 97.2 percent of patients in a well-defined group is continued , unless there are orders mandating it .
Unless there is added insurance money to be made from it .
Unless the doctors are willing to keep using the treatment , despite the results .
New York—the “ epicenter of the pandemic ” —is an epicenter of killing old people .
Public health agencies think : “ How can we falsely explain all these old people dying , in terms that will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ story ?
” And they come up with : “ Well , of course these elderly people already had medical problems before the COVID virus came along , and yes , these problems contributed to their demise .
But in the end , the cause of death was the VIRUS… ” So let ’ s look at this VIRUS .
Again .
For the fourth or fifth time since I started writing about the “ pandemic , ” I ’ ll go back to the beginning .
To the claim that a new @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one that is supposedly causing the global catastrophe .
Instead of blithely accepting the claim that the virus was “ sequenced ” and its genetic makeup was laid out , I offer the following— Do the study you never did .
Do something coherent .
Since you announced a global pandemic affecting billions of lives , do a real study .
Gather together a thousand people you claim are suffering from the “ epidemic disease , ” and take tissue samples from them .
In the real world .
Now , under proper @ @ @ @ @ @ @ video every single step of the process , CORRECTLY put these samples through a purifying procedure that involves centrifuging them , and extracting the relevant material—and place small bits of this material under an electron microscope .
Take photos ( EMs ) of what you see .
Now place these thousand photos side by side .
In each photo , do you see many , many particles of what is unmistakably a virus ?
Is it a virus you ’ ve never seen before ?
From photo to photo , are the many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same ?
When you ’ ve done that , let another set of technicians follow the same procedure , and see what they come up with .
If by THESE standards , you really think you ’ ve found a new virus , call me .
I ’ m not interested in what you ’ re “ genetically sequencing ” in the lab .
It could be a partial virus of no concern , a decaying irrelevant virus , a piece of random genetic material , cellular debris , exosomes , a common-cold @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if a hundred labs start with the same who-knows-what sample , and all the labs come up with the same genetic sequence , this proves nothing .
There is no procedure that can climb inside a person ’ s body and record what is happening in real time at the level of a virus—but the closest you can come is the electron microscope procedure I ’ ve described above .
You didn ’ t do that procedure .
Don ’ t come at me with a few random anecdotal cases from here and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ electron microscope photos .
Don ’ t tap dance .
The planet went on lockdown as a result of what you claim you discovered—so do the coherent study I outlined .
Go the whole distance .
That ’ s what science is supposed to do .
And then other teams of researchers can weigh in with their own large electron microscope studies and confirm or deny your findings .
Meanwhile , do you know what you have ?
An unproven virus .
A fake .
A story about a virus .
Therefore , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new virus ” are a sham .
They ’ re based on something you never demonstrated in the first place .
—Therefore , all those people , those elderly people dying for obvious reasons in nursing homes , and in their lonely apartments , and in hospitals all over the world ?
You obviously have no proof they ’ re dying from a virus .
How could you ?
You never properly discovered a new virus .
You have dust in your hands .
Saying these elderly people died as a result of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you have murder .
You have blood on your hands .
Your death-dealing COVID diagnosis of these old people is the final straw that drives them into terror and over the edge into death .
You have that to answer for .
In this article I decided to lift the cover on the whole sordid mess—going to the root .
It was necessary , because the medical “ experts ” keep falling back on THE VIRUS to explain away all objections .
The truth is right in front of their eyes—it ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dying , and why fake scientists and medical fraudsters must count their deaths as COVID cases .
Without those gigantic death numbers , the illusion of a pandemic would fall apart in an hour .
THE OLD PEOPLE ARE DYING FROM TERROR AND LONELINESS ON TOP OF ALL THEIR LONG-STANDING HEALTH CONDITIONS AND THE TOXIC TREATMENTS THEY RECEIVED FOR YEARS .
Period .
No virus needed .
They ’ re dying in nursing homes , in isolated apartments and houses all over the world , and in hospitals .
And on their bodies @ @ @ @ @ @ @ population of the planet .

Continuing my series of articles on the killing of the elderly—which IS what “COVID” IS.
(This is part-3 in the series, “Killing Old People”. For part-4, click here. For part-2, click here.)
The medical establishment is facing the embarrassing and devastating fact that a huge percentage of so-called COVID deaths are occurring in nursing homes. The elderly are dying prematurely.
And not only in nursing homes. In hospitals, and alone in their apartments.
All told, huge numbers of old people are dying premature deaths.
It’s obvious these patients have many serious and long-standing health conditions that have NOTHING to do with a virus. They’ve been treated for decades with toxic medical drugs. Their immune systems are severely compromised.
THEN they’re terrified when they’re handed a diagnosis of COVID-19 based on fraudulent tests, or no tests at all. They’re shut off completely from the outside world. No family or friends are permitted to see them. So the elderly die.
You want to see some astonishing numbers? Let’s go to the “epicenter.” New York City.
Using worldometers.info for data, I looked at the latest figures available.
As of May 13, take these two age groups—65 to 74, and 75 and older—and together they account for a staggering 73.6 percent of all COVID deaths in the city.
The 75 and older group accounts, all on its own, for 48.7 percent of all COVID deaths in the city.
For THIS, New York is on lockdown. Boarded up. Imprisoned. Economically torpedoed and devastated. With two ignoramus-vampires—Governor Cuomo and Mayor De Blasio—hovering over its shoulders.
If you subtracted the premature and forced deaths of the elderly, the fiction of New York as “the epicenter of COVID” would blow away in the wind in five minutes.
In case you missed it, in a piece I wrote a few days ago, I added yet one more factor to the murderous New York formula:
The Hill, undated (late April 2020), reporting on “data…gathered at Northwell Health, New York state’s largest hospital system. The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) examines 5,700 patients hospitalized with coronavirus infections in the New York City region, with final outcomes recorded for 2,634 patients. The average patient age was 63 years old… For the next oldest age group, ages 66 years and older, patients receiving mechanical [breathing] ventilation recorded a 97.2 percent mortality rate.”
Just in case all the other obvious factors failed to produce premature death in the elderly, ventilators provided the method.
Don’t even think of saying, “Well, you see, those old people put on ventilators were already very sick and close to dying.” NO medical treatment that kills 97.2 percent of patients in a well-defined group is continued, unless there are orders mandating it. Unless there is added insurance money to be made from it. Unless the doctors are willing to keep using the treatment, despite the results.
New York—the “epicenter of the pandemic”—is an epicenter of killing old people.
Public health agencies think: “How can we falsely explain all these old people dying, in terms that will operate as a diversion and a cover story?”
And they come up with: “Well, of course these elderly people already had medical problems before the COVID virus came along, and yes, these problems contributed to their demise. But in the end, the cause of death was the VIRUS…”
A convenient and false statement.
So let’s look at this VIRUS. Again.
For the fourth or fifth time since I started writing about the “pandemic,” I’ll go back to the beginning. To the claim that a new virus was discovered in China. The one that is supposedly causing the global catastrophe.
Instead of blithely accepting the claim that the virus was “sequenced” and its genetic makeup was laid out, I offer the following—
Do the study you never did. Do something coherent. Since you announced a global pandemic affecting billions of lives, do a real study.
Gather together a thousand people you claim are suffering from the “epidemic disease,” and take tissue samples from them. In the real world. Now, under proper supervision, with independent observers recording on video every single step of the process, CORRECTLY put these samples through a purifying procedure that involves centrifuging them, and extracting the relevant material—and place small bits of this material under an electron microscope. Take photos (EMs) of what you see.
Now place these thousand photos side by side. In each photo, do you see many, many particles of what is unmistakably a virus? Is it a virus you’ve never seen before? From photo to photo, are the many particles of this new virus all the same?
When you’ve done that, let another set of technicians follow the same procedure, and see what they come up with.
If by THESE standards, you really think you’ve found a new virus, call me.
I’m not interested in what you’re “genetically sequencing” in the lab. It could be a partial virus of no concern, a decaying irrelevant virus, a piece of random genetic material, cellular debris, exosomes, a common-cold coronavirus, who knows what? And if a hundred labs start with the same who-knows-what sample, and all the labs come up with the same genetic sequence, this proves nothing.
There is no procedure that can climb inside a person’s body and record what is happening in real time at the level of a virus—but the closest you can come is the electron microscope procedure I’ve described above.

Therefore, all your diagnostic tests “for the new virus” are a sham. They’re based on something you never demonstrated in the first place.
—Therefore, all those people, those elderly people dying for obvious reasons in nursing homes, and in their lonely apartments, and in hospitals all over the world? You obviously have no proof they’re dying from a virus. How could you? You never properly discovered a new virus. You have dust in your hands. Saying these elderly people died as a result of the COVID virus is meaningless.
Actually you have murder. You have blood on your hands. Your death-dealing COVID diagnosis of these old people is the final straw that drives them into terror and over the edge into death. You have that to answer for.

21stcenturywire--2020-07-02--Why Did Ghislaine Maxwell Leave Safety of France for Arrest in US?

IMAGE : The Great and the Good : Tycoon Jeffrey Epstein with Ghislaine Maxwell .
It ’ s the question which many are asking right now : why did this former colleague of notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein leave the relative safety of France , in effect , voluntarily allowing herself to be arrested in the United States ?
Once again , there is a lot more to this story than the mainstream media is letting on .
At a news conference on Thursday , acting US Attorney for the Southern District of New York , Audrey Strauss , charged @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ sexual exploitation and abuse ” of multiple underage girls by Jeffrey Epstein , according to a court filing .
Strauss also stated that Ghislaine Maxwell had “ repeatedly lied ” about her involvement in Epstein ’ s affairs , and that the truth was “ almost unspeakable.
” Indeed it was , most notably for Epstein himself , who mysteriousLy committed suicide whilst under the watchful eye of the federal prison system .
Strauss added that British socialite Maxwell had “ enticed young girls , got them to trust her , then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Epstein had set for them.
” She was arrested by the FBI Thursday at a luxury property located in Bradford , New Hampshire .
Maxwell , 58 , and he daughter of newspaper tycoon Robert Maxwell , has denied any wrongdoing and dismisses the claims against as “ absolute rubbish.
” Why Did She Leave France ?
Ever since Epstein ’ s untimely death in August last year , she has maintained a low public profile , effectively living ‘ on the road ’ , jet-setting between properties in multiple countries in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ law enforcement .
The question remains why Maxwell would have suddenly handed herself over to US authorities now .
The answer to that question may very well have something to do with her friend Prince Andrew , who has been in a six-month standoff with the FBI who have wanted to interview him over his relations with Epstein and to answer to victims ’ accusations of under-age sexual abuse .
Could Maxwell have been summoned by the powers that be in order to provide a buffer against any further overtures by authorities towards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moment , the press have renewed their campaign pressure on 60 year-old Prince Andrew to ‘ stop making excuses ’ and now tell the FBI everything he knows about Epstein and his former girlfriend and associate Ghislaine Maxwell .
Gloria Allred , a US lawyer based in Los Angeles who is representing 16 accusers of Epstein , has also publicly stated the Queen ’ s son must ‘ contact the FBI immediately.
’ Maxwell , who was born in France to a French mother , has been hiding out in a luxury flat @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Paris , located just a few minutes from Epstein ’ s former apartment on Avenue Foch , which was raided by French police in September 2019 .
As France does not extradite its citizens , it was believed that she was there in order to avoid being sent to the United States .
Her move seems counter intuitive .
Was she offered some kind of immunity deal through back channels ?
Will the media ’ s legal spectacle create a sufficient distraction to protect some of Epstein ’ s high-profile friends , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Are there legal backroom maneuvers afoot ?
One possible clue is here , also reported today : Attorneys for alleged Jeffrey Epstein “ sex slave ” Virginia Roberts Giuffre were ordered Wednesday to destroy evidence from her case against Ghislaine Maxwell — as lawyer Alan Dershowitz was also denied access to the potentially explosive information .
Manhattan federal Judge Loretta Preska said she was “ troubled ” to learn during oral arguments last week that Giuffre ’ s lawyers , from the firm of Cooper & Kirk , had been given sealed records @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who Giuffre claims recruited her to have sex with Epstein and his pals while she was underage .
This means that some potentially incriminating evidence against Maxwell may now be removed from the picture , something that could strengthen her own defense and give her lawyers a stronger hand to play in their client denying any wrongdoing in the Epstein case .
While her holding pattern in France was tenable , this did not mean that other pressures weren ’ t building in the background .
According to Tatler Magazine : “ An @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ghislaine is moving locations every month to keep private investigators off her tail and is staying at the residences of trusted colleagues and contacts .
She wants to remain in France for as long as she can to take advantage of extradition laws and has a huge network of contacts willing to keep her hidden .
‘ Under French law anyone born on French soil is safe from extradition to another country , regardless of the alleged crime .
It doesn ’ t mean she won ’ t be prosecuted for her links @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up facing charges it will be in France and not the US.
’ Maxwell was said to have been seen out in public on a number of occasions , wearing a scarf around her face to remain undetected .
She reportedly walked the streets of the upmarket part of Paris , near the glamorous Market restaurant and Le Berkeley and Le Bristol hotels .
A local source was quoted as stating : ‘ She was here just before France announced its coronavirus lockdown .
She rarely went out , but when she did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she pulled tightly around her face and draped across her shoulders .
She clearly didn ’ t want to be recognised and was able to blend in .
But she was wearing her distinctive gold sovereign ring on her left hand and a larger , glitzier ring on her right.
’ There was another interesting detail in this report : “ Other sources reportedly claimed to have spotted Maxwell walking away from the Israeli Embassy.
” This detail is interesting because Maxwell is also the daughter of “ Israeli Super Spy ” Robert @ @ @ @ @ @ @ possible that Tel Aviv could also have been a flight destination .
Tying these two details together is no mere conspiracy theory , rather , it is based on a series of inconvenient facts .
Her links to Israeli intelligence also come into play with accusations that Jeffrey Epstein was involved in blackmailing political and business elites .
Certainly , the prominent feature of Ghislaine as Epstein ’ s chief procurer of females for his harem – should raise a strong suspicion that this may indeed be the case .
Add to this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were visible on the flight manifests of the Lolita Express to his private island of Little St. James – former Israeli PM Ehud Barack , alongside US President Bill Clinton , and others .
It ’ s worth noting here that it was President Clinton who secured an eleventh hour pardon of convicted criminal financier and Clinton associate Marc Rich .
In fact , it was former Mossad chief , Shabtai Shavit , who urged Clinton to pardon Rich .
Was there any blackmail involved in that transaction ?
Previous to that , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ book , Clinton Inc : The Audacious Rebuilding of a Political Machine , where phone sex conversations between Bill Clinton and White House intern Monica Lewinsky were wiretapped ( circa 1997-98 ) and used as a blackmail against the White House by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu .
Netanyahu was using intercepted phone sex conversations between the president and Lewinsky to force the release of American Jonathan Pollard , who had been caught spying on behalf of the Israelis .
Clinton and Netanyahu ’ s desperate plea to release Pollard but was denied @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Tenet .
The fact that large sums of money have been moving back and forth between Epstein and Maxwell indicates that they may have been involved in a number of highly illicit activities .

IMAGE: The Great and the Good: Tycoon Jeffrey Epstein with Ghislaine Maxwell.
It’s the question which many are asking right now: why did this former colleague of notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein leave the relative safety of France, in effect, voluntarily allowing herself to be arrested in the United States? Once again, there is a lot more to this story than the mainstream media is letting on.
At a news conference on Thursday, acting US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Audrey Strauss, charged Maxwell with playing a role in the “sexual exploitation and abuse” of multiple underage girls by Jeffrey Epstein, according to a court filing.
Strauss also stated that Ghislaine Maxwell had “repeatedly lied” about her involvement in Epstein’s affairs, and that the truth was “almost unspeakable.” Indeed it was, most notably for Epstein himself, who mysteriousLy committed suicide whilst under the watchful eye of the federal prison system.
Strauss added that British socialite Maxwell had “enticed young girls, got them to trust her, then delivered them into the trap that she and Epstein had set for them.”
She was arrested by the FBI Thursday at a luxury property located in Bradford, New Hampshire.
Maxwell, 58, and he daughter of newspaper tycoon Robert Maxwell, has denied any wrongdoing and dismisses the claims against as “absolute rubbish.”

Why Did She Leave France?
Ever since Epstein’s untimely death in August last year, she has maintained a low public profile, effectively living ‘on the road’, jet-setting between properties in multiple countries in an effort to avoid the media and law enforcement.
The question remains why Maxwell would have suddenly handed herself over to US authorities now. The answer to that question may very well have something to do with her friend Prince Andrew, who has been in a six-month standoff with the FBI who have wanted to interview him over his relations with Epstein and to answer to victims’ accusations of under-age sexual abuse. Could Maxwell have been summoned by the powers that be in order to provide a buffer against any further overtures by authorities towards the British Royal Family?
At the moment, the press have renewed their campaign pressure on 60 year-old Prince Andrew to ‘stop making excuses’ and now tell the FBI everything he knows about Epstein and his former girlfriend and associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
Gloria Allred, a US lawyer based in Los Angeles who is representing 16 accusers of Epstein, has also publicly stated the Queen’s son must ‘contact the FBI immediately.’
Maxwell, who was born in France to a French mother, has been hiding out in a luxury flat on Avenue Matignon near the Champs Élysées in Paris, located just a few minutes from Epstein’s former apartment on Avenue Foch, which was raided by French police in September 2019. As France does not extradite its citizens, it was believed that she was there in order to avoid being sent to the United States.
Her move seems counter intuitive. Was she offered some kind of immunity deal through back channels? Will the media’s legal spectacle create a sufficient distraction to protect some of Epstein’s high-profile friends, including the likes of Bill Gates?
Are there legal backroom maneuvers afoot? One possible clue is here, also reported today:
Attorneys for alleged Jeffrey Epstein “sex slave” Virginia Roberts Giuffre were ordered Wednesday to destroy evidence from her case against Ghislaine Maxwell — as lawyer Alan Dershowitz was also denied access to the potentially explosive information.
Manhattan federal Judge Loretta Preska said she was “troubled” to learn during oral arguments last week that Giuffre’s lawyers, from the firm of Cooper & Kirk, had been given sealed records from her since-settled suit against Maxwell, who Giuffre claims recruited her to have sex with Epstein and his pals while she was underage.
This means that some potentially incriminating evidence against Maxwell may now be removed from the picture, something that could strengthen her own defense and give her lawyers a stronger hand to play in their client denying any wrongdoing in the Epstein case.
While her holding pattern in France was tenable, this did not mean that other pressures weren’t building in the background. According to Tatler Magazine:
“An unnamed source told the Sun: ‘Ghislaine is moving locations every month to keep private investigators off her tail and is staying at the residences of trusted colleagues and contacts. She wants to remain in France for as long as she can to take advantage of extradition laws and has a huge network of contacts willing to keep her hidden.
‘Under French law anyone born on French soil is safe from extradition to another country, regardless of the alleged crime. It doesn’t mean she won’t be prosecuted for her links to Epstein but if she does end up facing charges it will be in France and not the US.’
Maxwell was said to have been seen out in public on a number of occasions, wearing a scarf around her face to remain undetected. She reportedly walked the streets of the upmarket part of Paris, near the glamorous Market restaurant and Le Berkeley and Le Bristol hotels.
A local source was quoted as stating: ‘She was here just before France announced its coronavirus lockdown. She rarely went out, but when she did she wore a large patterned blanket which she pulled tightly around her face and draped across her shoulders. She clearly didn’t want to be recognised and was able to blend in. But she was wearing her distinctive gold sovereign ring on her left hand and a larger, glitzier ring on her right.’
There was another interesting detail in this report:
“Other sources reportedly claimed to have spotted Maxwell walking away from the Israeli Embassy.”
This detail is interesting because Maxwell is also the daughter of “Israeli Super Spy” Robert Maxwell, and so it’s possible that Tel Aviv could also have been a flight destination.
Tying these two details together is no mere conspiracy theory, rather, it is based on a series of inconvenient facts. Her links to Israeli intelligence also come into play with accusations that Jeffrey Epstein was involved in blackmailing political and business elites. Certainly, the prominent feature of Ghislaine as Epstein’s chief procurer of females for his harem – should raise a strong suspicion that this may indeed be the case. Add to this, two other Epstein VIPs whose names were visible on the flight manifests of the Lolita Express to his private island of Little St. James – former Israeli PM Ehud Barack, alongside US President Bill Clinton, and others.
It’s worth noting here that it was President Clinton who secured an eleventh hour pardon of convicted criminal financier and Clinton associate Marc Rich. In fact, it was former Mossad chief, Shabtai Shavit, who urged Clinton to pardon Rich. Was there any blackmail involved in that transaction? Previous to that, according to claims unearthed in the 2014 book, Clinton Inc: The Audacious Rebuilding of a Political Machine, where phone sex conversations between Bill Clinton and White House intern Monica Lewinsky were wiretapped (circa 1997-98) and used as a blackmail against the White House by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu was using intercepted phone sex conversations between the president and Lewinsky to force the release of American Jonathan Pollard, who had been caught spying on behalf of the Israelis. Clinton and Netanyahu’s desperate plea to release Pollard but was denied at the time by CIA director George Tenet.
‘Epstein was Untouchable’
The fact that large sums of money have been moving back and forth between Epstein and Maxwell indicates that they may have been involved in a number of highly illicit activities. From the recent Grand Jury discovery:
Ghislaine Maxwell – new info from the US Detention Memo: 1) The grand jury returned the indictment on 6/29/20 2) Maxwell has 15+ bank accounts. Some hold more than $20 million. 3) Transfers of millions $$ to/from Epstein 4) Cash purchase of 156 acre NH Property in 2019 pic.twitter.com/onA8cht64N — Techno Fog (@Techno_Fog) July 2, 2020
In an article written for the Daily Beast, reporter Vickie Ward noted how when former U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta cut Epstein his ‘sweetheart’ plea deal back in 2007, he had also been told to “back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade.”
“I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” said Acosta, who was recently forced to resign as Trump’s Secretary of Labor. Ward explained this potential game-changer here:
Epstein’s name, I was told, had been raised by the Trump transition team when Alexander Acosta, the former U.S. attorney in Miami who’d infamously cut Epstein a non-prosecution plea deal back in 2007, was being interviewed for the job of labor secretary. The plea deal put a hard stop to a separate federal investigation of alleged sex crimes with minors and trafficking.
“Is the Epstein case going to cause a problem [for confirmation hearings]?” Acosta had been asked. Acosta had explained, breezily, apparently, that back in the day he’d had just one meeting on the Epstein case. He’d cut the non-prosecution deal with one of Epstein’s attorneys because he had “been told” to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” he told his interviewers in the Trump transition, who evidently thought that was a sufficient answer and went ahead and hired Acosta. (The Labor Department had no comment when asked about this.)
The question then remains: which intelligence? The answer may be classified, so we may never know the full story.
Still, we can expect more details to come to the fore through this process.

Does the welfare system work for minorities in America? Over the long run, has it done more harm than good?
When watching mainstream American political discourse, one gets the impression that all black leaders are in agreement and are of one mind when it comes to all aspects of President Lyndon B Johnson’s Great Society and support for the welfare state. Upon closer examination, this is not necessarily the case. It’s not that there is any shortage of contrarian African-American voices on this issue. Rather, the political left have long-relied on welfare and entitlement programs as their central issue for garnering African American political support, which is why editorial gatekeepers may be reticent to allow any credible dissenting voices on this issue onto a mainstream media platform. The result of this has been a monolithic conversation centered around “race,” and worst of all – no overall improvement on raising the socioeconomic bar.
There is no doubt that the current socio-economic situation is still dire for millions of African-Americans, but for that situation to improve, there also needs to be honest conversation about the efficacy and long-term outcomes of sweeping federal social programs. This short compendium combines statements on the issue from eminent African-American scholar Thomas Sowell, award-winning journalist Jason Riley, academic and economist Walter E. Williams, as well as leading advocates Bob Woodson, Larry Elder, and Star Parker. Watch:
