-Signs, Portents, and the Weather-
The COVID pandemic narrative takes another hit
[American Thinker] For months, bloggers on the fringe of alternative media have been characterizing COVID-19 and its aftermath as a "plandemic" that had been planned out during two pandemic simulations: SPARS in 2017 and Event 201 in 2019. These conferences were supposedly organized to anticipate the policies and resources that would be needed to fight the next pandemic. Believers in the plandemic scenario discussed parallels between these simulations and today's pandemic that ranged from the concrete to the fanciful, but neither proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that COVID-19 had been planned. Then along came testimony from the chair of M-CAM, an international finance company that keeps track of patent applications.

Patent records accessed by M-CAM show that not once, but twice, U.S. drug companies colluded with government agencies to patent treatments before two disease outbreaks took place. First, between the CDC and Sequoia Pharmaceuticals for treating SARS in 2003. Second, between Moderna and NIAID in November 2019 for treating COVID-19. Martin points out that the holdings of Sequoia were later rolled into Pfizer, Crucell, and Johnson & Johnson. It is no coincidence that two of these three companies (along with Moderna) are now producing vaccines for COVID.

Reiner Fuellmich's interview with Dr. Martin last week is the closest thing to a smoking gun, but Martin's testimony is so dense and prolonged that even the summary provided under the video in the link is hard to process (kudos to the blogger who wrote it). This may be the main reason Martin's shocking revelations are not dominating the alternative media. This interview with Stew Peters is more accessible to dummies like myself.

The collusion between the government and Big Pharma is but a fraction of what remains to be unpacked. Consequently, I will leave it to others to clarify what Dr. Martin means when says there was "no SARS outbreak" or that COVID-19 (which he refers to as SARS-Cov2) is "indistinguishable" from SARS. Sorry to leave you hanging, but I fear not doing justice to what these statements really mean!

#2  I thought Israelis would be more fearless approaching the whole 'mysterious genetic material' jab thing?

#3  I frequently point out that "Our (Israeli) monkeys imitate American ones". I mostly mean Left-wing, but monkeys are monkeys. IMO, anyone who can't spare 30 minutes to read Wiki article (written decades ago) on protein synthesis and find out mRNA jab is NOT genetic engineering, should have a banana.

How deadly are we really talking about concerning the C19/21 A thru D variants?


DATA SOURCE: WORLDOMETERS Covid19
Dates: Nov. 14th, 2019 to Today = 617+/- Days
Data as of July 23, 2021, 10:53 GMT
=========================
DATA
Total Claimed Worldwide Cases: 193,535,237
Total Claimed Deaths: 4,154,339
Est. World Population: 7,900,000,000

Odds of infection: 2.44% / 7.9B spread over 617 days over the whole world.

Odds of Death: IF your were part of the 2.44% infected you ran the risk of 2.15% of dying spread over 617 days.

MATH:
4,154,339(D) of 7,900,000,000(P) = 0.05258656962025316 of 1% of the world died from the C19-21(A thru D)

OR
0.05330000000000001 of 1% if you use WorldOMeteres 533 per million running average.

Afghanistan
Afghanistan: The Islamic Turk connection
[AlAhram] Al Ahram Weekly assesses Erdogan’s latest venture in Afghanistan.

During the Diplomacy Forum held in the Ottoman Turkish Mediterranean coastal town of Antalya last month, Afghan Foreign Minister Haneef Atmar expressed his government’s appreciation for The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
’s offer to assume responsibility for securing Kabul International Airport following the departure of US forces from Afghanistan. "Turkey has an extremely important role both at a regional and global level," he told the state-run Anadolu news agency on the fringe of the conference. "We very much welcome Turkey’s willingness to sustain the capabilities and the facilities as well as the high-level technological arrangements for the airport.’’ He added that this measure was necessary to ensure the continuous presence of diplomatic missions, consuls and embassies in the Afghan capital.

Home Front: Politix
Here's what's gone ‘right' after six months of Biden: Devine
[NYPost] With President Biden celebrating six months in office this week, it may seem as if Jane Fonda was prophetic when she declared last year that "COVID is God’s gift to the left."

But never despair. As the dust settles from the pandemic and we grimly survey the gains made by Hanoi Jane’s comrades, it’s time for some good news.

Pride comes before a fall, and the left is way over their skis, too big for their boots, counting their chickens before they’re hatched and about to be shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods, just to mix a few metaphors that add up to one thing.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Is Lebanon on the Verge of a Military Coup?
[algemeiner] A combination of sectarian politics, ethnic divide, animosity, and corruption has brought Lebanon — the country once called the "Paris of the Middle East" — to the brink of destruction.

But there is another major reason for this: Iran has cynically, methodically, and strategically kidnapped Lebanon.

#1  No. Because Lebanon doesn't really have a military - it's all sectarian all the way.
