Explosive Cancer Deaths Since Covid Jabs
latest leaflet to print at home and deliver to neighbours or forward to politicians, media, friends online.
Haven’t watched all this, but the history of climate/weather/famine doom-mongering. And a reminder that we were going to enter an ice-age:-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1e5HAZo4iw&t=191s
We are actually still in an Ice Age. The presence of ice caps – Greenland and Antarctica – means that. We are soon to enter full Ice Age, leaving our lovely Interglacial period behind. Overdue in fact.
Wrap up warm.
Today’s fun fact for the COP28 cloud botherers:
A century ago, Serbian scientist Milutin Milankovitch hypothesized the long-term, collective effects of changes in Earth’s position relative to the Sun are a strong driver of Earth’s climate
‘Milankovitch’s work was supported by other researchers of his time, and he authored numerous publications on his hypothesis. But it wasn’t until about 10 years after his death in 1958 that the global science community began to take serious notice of his theory. In 1976, a study in the journal Science by Hays et al. using deep-sea sediment cores found that Milankovitch cycles correspond with periods of major climate change over the past 450,000 years, with Ice Ages occurring when Earth was undergoing different stages of orbital variation.
Several other projects and studies have also upheld the validity of Milankovitch’s work, including research using data from ice cores in Greenland and Antarctica that has provided strong evidence of Milankovitch cycles going back many hundreds of thousands of years. In addition, his work has been embraced by the National Research Council of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.’

COP28 cloud botherers of the day:
‘Cirrus cloud seeding is one of the most recent ideas of artificially modifying the planetary energy balance to counteract the human-caused global warming. So far, it is still highly uncertain whether such a scheme could effectively decrease the temperatures at global scales. This study pointed out its uncertain climatic responses, which depend on the details on the complexity of simulated seeding method’

Good article because it highlights and calls out the ignorance, hypocrisy and blatant antisemitism of the pro-hate mobs that seem to be the new normal in the West, and it’s not like they require an organized march to demonstrate such hostile and anti-social behaviour now is it?;
”Abroad, Hamas supporters also emulated the methods of the pro-Nazi demonstrators in Western cities of the 1930s. Unlike their pro-Israel critics, the pro-Hamas demonstrators in the U.S. and Europe turned violent.
They took over and defaced private and public property. They chanted genocidal anti-Semitic slogans calling for erasure of the nation of Israel.
They interrupted shoppers, blocked highways, attacked businesses, and swarmed bridges. They assaulted police.
The majority wore masks to hide their identities in the fashion of anti-semitic Klansmen.
For the first time in their lives, many of the ignorant protestors suddenly professed concern about refugees, colonialism, disproportionality, innocent civilians, and the rules of war.
But none could explain why the Palestinians who fled Israel in 1947-48 still self-identify as victimized “refugees” when 900,000 Jews ethnically cleansed from Middle-East Arab cities about the same time do not.
The 200,000 Greek Cypriots driven out from norther Cyprus by Turkey apparently do not warrant “refugee’’ status either.
Few protestors knew that Jews have lived in present-day Israel for over three millennia. The longest colonialist presence there were Muslim Turks who brutally ran the Holy Land for 300 years until they lost World War I and were expelled.
How exactly did it happen that the eighth-century A.D. Al-Aqsa Mosque was built within King Herod’s earlier Second Temple enclosure?
The Pro-Hamas crowd has little appreciation that colonizing Arab Muslims have one of history’s longest records of “settling” other countries far from their historic birthland.”

And this 3min vid clip demonstrates how and where this unacceptable behaviour and disgusting attitude towards Jews starts and is normalized. Legitimizing antisemitism at universities. Now let’s think if calling for the genocide of black people or Muslims would also be tolerated and not constitute bullying and harassment, but Jews get to be treat like the sh*t on every hostile bigot’s shoe;

So this is interesting. Not only does the UK get France’s migrant rejects but under a new agreement you’ll get Rwanda’s too, but they get to pick and choose which migrants they take from the UK in return. Sounds fair;
”Rwanda can pick and choose which asylum seekers it wants, resettle an indeterminate number of its own people in the United Kingdom, and send all criminals convicted of a serious offense back to Britain in the revised asylum agreement between the two countries.
U.K. Home Secretary James Cleverly met with Rwandan Foreign Affairs Minister Vincent Biruta in Kigali on Tuesday to hash out new terms after the U.K. Supreme Court declared sections of the previous agreement unlawful and contrary to international obligations on human rights.
The newly agreed terms, however, offer some problematic clauses for conservatives seeking to take back control of Britain’s borders, laws, and money, to coin a phrase from the Brexit referendum campaign in 2016.
First, the Rwandan government will have the right to send its own refugees to the United Kingdom. The new agreement does not state whether these are Rwandan nationals seeking asylum, or refugees from third countries who have sought asylum in Rwanda.
“The Parties shall make arrangements for the United Kingdom to resettle a portion of Rwanda’s most vulnerable refugees in the United Kingdom, recognizing both Parties’ commitment towards providing better international protection for refugees,” the relevant clause reads.
It does not provide any figures on how many refugees the British public can expect to receive from the African nation, prompting Boris Johnson’s former chief advisor Dominic Cummings to quip on Tuesday evening that “Rwanda will send more people to the U.K. than we send there”.
Second, Rwanda will have the right to be selective in the asylum seekers it wants to receive from Britain. In Article 4 of the text, the treaty stipulates that “all transfer requests by the U.K. shall require approval by Rwanda prior to relocation”.
As such, the Rwandan government can simply cherry-pick the asylum seekers it is happy to take from Britain — perhaps women and children — and reserves the right to refuse others. It is unclear what recourse Britain then has left to deal with the leftovers, and more importantly where they will live.”

What a surprise.
Robert Malone testimony in UK Parliament – closing comment:
“I come to you, (the UK government and governments of the world) with one request. Open the books. Let’s see the data, and let’s allow those data to be examined so we no longer have to have these little fights over these little details. So that we can actually get to the bottom of one of the most important questions the world is facing right now.
Were these products actually safe and effective?”
Not sure what Robert Malone is playing at. He is implying that the question of vaccine safety and effectiveness can’t be assessed because of a lack of data. By asking the question as if the answer is not already known, he is potentially allowing a lack of accountability for the vaccines not being withdrawn much earlier. His whole testimony seemed somewhat stilted to me.
Any thoughts? Do we trust the guy?
Personally, I find that quote entirely reprehensible. Malone seems to dismiss the very obvious fact of all the vaccine deaths and harms – deaths and harms that only occurred after people had received one, two or three shots. To then ask for even more data, as if they’re going to find data that actually says ‘yes, they were safe and effective, end of story’, is galling. It plays into the ‘they didn’t know what they were doing’ category. They knew exactly what they were doing. Mike Yeadon, who I trust implicitly, and whose contribution to the hearing was somehow not heard (I don’t know the details) says that those designing the ‘vaccines’ knew exactly what was in them – it’s part of the design process – and what that would do to human beings. Malone will know this too. So, either he’s stupid, which I don’t think for a minute, or he’s playing some sort of game in smoothing out the ruffles and making the whole vaccine injury business go away. For those reasons, I don’t trust him one bit.
Very well articulated, Aethelred – that’s pretty much where I am re Malone. I wonder what the others in attendance thought about his testimony.
Thanks Michael.
Must read for Mr. Kim:
Many interesting thoughts from a pro-natalist conference.
This one also explains a lot…:
“One of the little-known unpleasant effects of internet dating is that people with mental illnesses find each other and have children.”
https://www.unz.com/article/how-to-have-more-and-better-children/
Can you handle logic and some truth bombs derived from applying it?!:
“It is obvious that if the official data showed that the Covid “vaccine” was not dangerous, the authorities would release it, and it would not have to be leaked by data administrators or ordered released by courts.
Now ask yourselves and your friends what it means that the official health authorities of allegedly accountable democratic governments not only suppress the information but demonize and arrest those, such as New Zealand’s data administrator, who make it public.
Ask yourselves why the media discredits and supports the arrest of those who tell the truth in an attempt to save lives.
Do you understand that the Covid “vaccine” still in use are doses approved under the emergency use authorization? The subsequently approved doses have not been released.
Why? The reason is that the emergency use authorization in the US prevents lawsuits for damages, but the approved use batches do not.
Obviously, the “vaccine” makers and the authorities understand that the vaccine is dangerous and requires use under emergency use authorization to avoid liability.
The people who died from Covid, instead of from the “vaccine,” died from the withholding of the known proven cures–Ivermectin and HCQ. The cures had to be withheld, because under the law if a cure existed, emergency use could not be activated.”

Well hell. History shows that the only way to achieve “equality” is by compulsion; ergo freedom is diminished if not totally destroyed. Which is why Socialism is DOOMED to fail – it is against human nature, and nature cannot be defeated. As lockdowns showed
