Covid vaxx causing traffic accidents "IndyWatch Feed Capricornia"

https://www.europereloaded.com/city-bus-school-bus-and-truck-drivers-are-suffering-sudden-cardiac-arrests-collapsing-and-crashing/

Queensland has experienced its highest road accident toll since 2009, with 299 deaths in 2022 coinciding with the continuous rollout of Covid jabs across the state.

In February the Queensland Transport Minister Mark Bailey, a non-driver, alluded their could be a connection to the Covid jabs but intends yet again to double up on driving penalties and force those renewing drivers licences to undergo road rules refresher tests.

This bus for no apparent reason reportedly veered into the path of a four wheel drive in Cairns in 2022.

There has been a continual spate of serious road accidents over the past 18 months resulting in deaths and hospitalisations.

Every few day newspaper readers are confronted with stories of single vehicle accidents where inexplicably, cars have crashed into trees on straight stretches of safe roads or a vehicle suddenly veering into the path of oncoming cars.

Usually it is reported that drivers suffered a medical episode, which in pre-plandemic years was almost unheard of particularly in regional areas.

Other states have reported similar data.

Europe and America are suffering the...

The Reality of Australias Cabinet Solidarity Holocaust.

Dutton just does not get it Aborigines are already enshrined in the Preamble of the Constitution "IndyWatch Feed Capricornia"

Letter from Peter Dutton:

Yesterday the Liberal Party determined its position on the Voice.

We will oppose the Prime Ministers model because it will enshrine in
the Constitution a Canberra-based bureaucracy.

It is a risky and divisive proposal that will not deliver practical outcomes.

Improving outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
Australians requires a sensible and practical approach.

Thats why we reaffirm our commitment to local and regional advisory
bodies to provide grassroots advice.

We support the recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
as Australias First People in our Constitution. But we would do so in
a responsible way that doesnt create Constitutional uncertainty.

This is a case of doing whats right for our country.

A referendum to enshrine the Albanese Governments Voice in the
Constitution is a big decision with unknown consequences.

Our Constitution is our most important legal document. Every word can
have a meaning and can be open to interpretation.

Once its in the Constitution, it is permanent. It wont be changed.

The Government or Parliament cannot rectify any unintended consequences.

The facts matter. The details matter.

Thats why we asked 15 questions in January questions that still
remain unanswered.

The way Mr Albaneses Voice has been worded, and by enshrining it in
the Constitution, could open a legal can of worms.

WHO urges member states to have plandemic accord in place by May 2024 for their world domination "IndyWatch Feed Capricornia"

By Lyndesy Symonds

Meanwhile the United [Communist] Nations continues to roll the CoVID Agenda forward. Definitely part of the ESG environmentally sustainable governance package of the emerging world soviet.

WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, a former, wanted Ethiopian terrorist urges Australia and all member states to approve the plandemic accord by May next year

Click to access A_INB5_2-en.pdf

The first week in April saw the fifth meeting of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB) to draft a pandemic accord started on Monday with acknowledgement by World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

Tedros is an Ethiopian Communist and former Gook terrorist who fought with the Tigrayan Peoples Liberation Front under the umbrella of MK. As a Political Commissar he had a role in the creation of a failed Marxist state for the people of Ethiopia. Im sure they were glad to see the back of him when he landed the plum job with the UN.

Thus spake Tedros: There is now only one year until the World Health Assembly in May 2024, which will consider the outcome of your efforts, said Tedros. This is a very tight timeframe, especially for a global negotiation. But from what you have accomplished so far, I am confident again that you have the will and commitment to reach a consensus in 11 months.

It was a foregone conclusion that a Global Pandemic treaty would be one of the objects of the UN CoVID...

I posted this in comments yesterday, but think Oleg Kuznetsovs satirical efforts are worthy of a post for this Easter Mondays entertainment. I would have not been surprised had Oleg been from Melbourne, but it seems he lives in the US (with US number +1) somewhere.

Some comments yesterday:

Joe Bogan: Reminds me of those people who escaped from quarantine and were treated like criminals by our lying, crooked, treacherous State Premiers. 

Ant56: A good laugh if not so real. Serco on all bases loaded.
The great Aussie dream !!!  In forty years, from most affordable housing to most unaffordable in the world, the shackles of debt usury by bankster beasts, the only protected species left in Oz.

NSW Police Turned Their Body Cameras Off Before Fatally Shooting Mentally Ill Man "IndyWatch Feed National"


NSW police tactical operations officers didnt have to shoot Todd McKenzie dead on a July evening in 2019. Yet, following a nine-hour siege, five officers stormed his Taree home, where he was alone, and shot the 40-year-old man, having a mental health crisis, three times in the back.

Evidence heard in the first week of his inquest has a local officer, who was attending a man having a schizophrenic episode, proceeding to aggravate McKenzie, suggesting that he was speaking dribble, lying and a drain on the country, while he further taunted Todd to step outside for a fight.

Over the second week of the coronial inquiry, testimony revealed that when Tactical Operations Regional Support officers arrived at the scene, they then ordered local police to turn off their body-worn cameras, despite Taree officers having been recording for the previous two and a...

The Silent Vitamin Deficiency Mimicking Dementia and How to Reverse Its Effects "IndyWatch Feed National"

Dementia is a growing concern globally, with an estimated 82 million people expected to be affected by 2030. The progressive decline in cognitive function can be devastating, but what if some cases could be attributed to a simple vitamin deficiency? The answer lies in the often-overlooked importance of vitamin B12, an essential nutrient for normal brain function. A deficiency in this vitamin can produce symptoms strikingly similar to dementia. In this article, well explore the role of vitamin B12 in the body, its connection to dementia, and how to address this deficiency through supplementation, a healthy lifestyle, and diet.

Vitamin B12 is crucial for the development and maintenance of nerve cells, the synthesis of DNA, and the production of red blood cells. It is most abundantly found in animal products, but certain microbes can also produce it. Low animal product consumption is the most common cause of vitamin B12 deficiency.

As we age, our hydrochloric acid (HCL) levels in the stomach decrease, which can lead to vitamin B12 deficiency. HCL is necessary to break down and absorb many vitamins and minerals. Antacids or Metformin use can further lower HCL levels, and acid reflux, often treated with antacids, can be a sign of low HCL. Betaine hydrochloride is the best supplement to promote normal stomach acidity.

Additionally, several medications and substances may cause dementia-like symptoms as side effects, including antacids, bladder medications, sleep aids, SSRIs, cholesterol medications, blood pressure medications, steroids, and alcohol. A deficiency in vitamin B1 (thiamine), zinc, and vitamin D can also lead to dementia-like symptoms.

A 2013 study in the journal Neurology found that vitamin B12-deficient individuals had smaller brain volumes and poorer cognitive performance, suggesting a link between B12 deficiency and dementia. Furthermore, nutrient deficiencies can shrink the hippocampus, leading to Alzheimers disease. Increasing ketones can help nourish a brain starved of fuel and nutrients.

Dr. Burg, a renowned expert in this field, recommends a four-step approach to addressing dementia symptoms caused by nutrient deficiencies:

  1. Start Healthy Keto and intermittent fasting: This eating pattern encourages a higher intake of healthy fats and a lower intake of carbohydrates, which can help increase ketone levels and support brain function.
  2. Consume more fatty fish and seafood: These are excellent sources of vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce inflammation and support brain health.
  3. Consume more red meat: It is a rich source of vitamin B12, iron, and other essential nutrients that support cognitive function.
  4. Take betaine hydrochloride: This supplement can help increase stomach acidity and improve the absorption of vitamin B12 and other nutrients.

Second batch of leaked classified documents details US secrets on Ukraine, China and Middle East "IndyWatch Feed National"

A second batch of classified documents detailing the United States' analyses of global hotspots has been leaked online in a suspected Russian plot. More than 100 documents are feared to have been obtained in what a senior intelligence called 'a nightmare for the Five Eyes,' - a reference to the intelligence sharing agreement between the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. The documents cover the war in Ukraine, China, terrorism and the Middle East. The Pentagon confirmed the leak, but said that some of the documents - as with the earlier reported leak - had been doctored to downplay the strength of U.S. allies. The first tranche of documents appeared to have been posted in early March on the social media platform Discord, according to Aric Toler, an analyst at Bellingcat, the Dutch investigative site. Friday's documents were published on the controversial message board 4Chan, and subsequently spread on Twitter.

"Whistleblowers have also alleged to Senator Johnson that local FBI leadership instructed its employees not to look at the Hunter Biden laptop immediately after the FBI had obtained it.

Nokukhanya Mntambo | 07 April 2023 13:10

JOHANNESBURG - Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola said South African officials were scrambling for answers after news that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) had denied the country's request to extradite the Gupta fugitives.

Gupta brothers, Rajesh and Atul, are wanted in South Africa to face fraud and corruption charges related to state capture crimes.

Lamola briefed the media on Friday morning following reports the duo were spotted in Switzerland in late March.

Lamola hit out at the UAE for failing to inform South African officials of the court's decision to deny the extradition request for the Gupta brothers.

A UAE court is believed to have ruled on the request almost a month ago, dismissing the application on a technical issue.

The court denied the extradition on the charge of money laundering, citing the UAE's jurisdiction over the matter, while the arrest warrant on the fraud and corruption charges was cancelled.

But Lamola said this did not warrant grounds for dismissal.

"The reasons provided for denying our request are inexplicable and fly in the face of the assurances given by Emirati authorities that our requests meet their requirements."

Lamola further accused the UAE of flouting the extradition treaty.

Letter to Attorney-General Richard Dreyfus, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Foreign Minister Senator Penny Wong concerning Julian Assange "IndyWatch Feed National"

I posted the following letter to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Foreign Minister Penny Wong and the Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus at around 11:00am on Thursday 7 April during a outside the electoral office of Mark Dreyfus in the Melbourne suburb of Mordialloc. I had hoped to hand a copy of this letter to Mark Dreyfus in person or, at least, to a member of his staff, but his office was unattended. For security reasons, as explained to me by a member of the Federal Police, there was no slot through which I could put the letter, so I had to send the letter through the mail. I expect that my letter would have been received in Mark Dreyfus' office the next day and that my letters to Anthony Albanese and Penny Wong will arrive on Tuesday 11 April following the Easter long Weekend. I have also e-mailed this letter, with the subject Please act humanely now to end the illegal imprisonment of Julian Assange, and sent CC copies to members of the .

Dear Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Foreign Minister Senator Penny Wong,

Late last year on 30 November 2022, when asked by Dr. Monique Ryan during Question Time, "Will the government intervene to bring Mr Assange home?" Prime Minister Anthony Albanese responded, "I [can] assure [Dr. Ryan] that I have raised this personally with representatives of the United States government." and "I will continue to advocate, as I did recently in meetings that I have held."

Then, 4 weeks later on 28 December at the Woodford Folk Festival, when Jenni, a young disabled female supporter of Julian Assange asked the Prime Minister a similar question, in his response, he said, "We don't have the power by ourselves to intervene in the legal processes of another country, in this case the United States or indeed the United Kingdom."

In his earlier response to Dr. Monique Ryan, the Prime Minister, curiously, did not claim that the Australian government doesn't "have the power" to make the UK free Assange. I believe that this is because Prime Minister Albanese fully understands that he could make British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak free Julian Assange today if he chose to. He could simply 'phone Sunak and tell him, "You are illegally holding in prison an Australian citizen...

Wieso fragt die Presse eigentlich nicht mal jemanden, ... "IndyWatch Feed National"

Wieso fragt die Presse eigentlich nicht mal jemanden, der sich mit sowas auskennt? Nun, manchmal tun sie das. Der RBB hat meinen Kumpel Honkhase befragt. Den Teil ber den DDOS htte ich ein bisschen anders formuliert. DDOS heit, dass nicht den Server angreifst, sondern die Leitung zum Server. Das kann man generell nicht verhindern, dass dieser Angriff mglich ist. In konkreten Fllen kann man hufig tricksen, und nach einer Weile geht der Angriff von alleine weg, weil ein ISP ja merkt, wenn aus ihrem Netz ein DDOS durchgefhrt wird. Das belastet auch deren Auenanbindung und die tun dann hoffentlich was.

Wichtiger finde ich Ransomware. Da sagt mein ansonsten wohlinformierter Kumpel folgendes:

Wenn jemand in die Systemlandschaft eindringen will, dann kann er beispielsweise eine Phishing-Mail schicken, in der ein manipulierter Link oder ein Anhang drin ist. Wenn ein Mitarbeiter den ffnet, dann ldt er sich unwissentlich eine Schadsoftware runter oder fhrt diese direkt im Anhang aus - mglichst klein, kompakt und effizient. Die schaut dann, wie es sie sich ins System einnisten kann und wie ein Angreifer von auen hnlich einer Fernwartung auf das System zugreifen und Dinge tun kann.
Das stimmt in der aktuellen Praxis unter Windows, Office und Active Directory, aber nichts davon ist gottgegeben oder ein Selbstlufer. Wenn du deinen Mitarbeitern eine Arbeits-Infrastruktur hinstellst, bei der sie nicht auf Mails oder Links klicken drfen, weil das die Sicherheit der ganzen Firma gefhrdet, und es dann zu ihrem Job machst, dass sie Mails ffnen und Links klicken, dann hast du meines Gerechtigkeitsempfindens nach alle Schden verdient, die das nach sich zieht. Das ist wie wenn du den Leuten Dienstwagen gibst, die per Funk zur spontanen Explosion bewegt werden knnen. Da kannst du auch nicht rummeckern ber die Teenager mit den Funkgerten. Diese Autos httest du halt nicht in Umlauf bringen drfen!

Auf diesen Aspekt kann man gar nicht oft genug hinweisen, finde ich. Die lassen das immer alle so klingen, als sei das halt so. Unsere alte Software ist halt schlecht und ttet ab und zu Menschen. JA H DANN VERWENDET DIE HALT NICHT MEHR!

Der Rest des Artikels ist aber lohnenswert. Da erklrt er, wieso die Verwaltungen nichts in Security investieren.

US efforts to ban TikTok are pure projection by the worlds biggest spy power "IndyWatch Feed National"

By Timur Fomenko | RT | April 4, 2023

As the United States contemplates a possible ban on TikTok, it relentlessly accuses Beijing of using the popular Chinese-owned social media application as a means of espionage, claiming that the Communist Party has access to user data.

Ironically, Washington itself is known to be doing exactly what US politicians are accusing China of doing. Using the unique advantage of having jurisdiction over the worlds top internet companies, the US has given itself the right to look into the private communications of foreign citizens anywhere in the world. Combine that data-sharing between intelligence agencies of the US and its allies, and you get the most comprehensive espionage regime in the world.

While American politicians and media constantly talk about fears of Chinese espionage, the near-absence of coverage of Washingtons own spying efforts ought to be a reminder of where the true power lies. When it comes to the shady activities of the CIA and the NSA, the public tends to only learn what they did years later from declassified documents, or what they have been doing all along from rare whistleblowers like Edward Snowden. All discussion and speculation about what they may be doing right now tends to be dismissed as conspiracy theories. Conversely, allegations of Chinese spying activities are constantly explained as we all know theyre doing it in the public eye, despite the lack of solid proof.

These warning signs remind us that the most cryptic source of all spying in the world is not China, but the US. Since the Second World War, the US has, in conjunction with Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, maintained a worldwide spying regime known as the Five Eyes which, in the age of mass communications, has been designed so that each government can bypass its own privacy laws and judicial restraints in order to spy on each others citizens, while supplying information within the group. In doing so, they have created a number of communication interception and surveillance programs, as revealed by Snowden, such as PRISM, ECHELON, XKEYSCORE, etc.

Of course, the US nearly holds a monopoly over the means of information and data gathering definitely more so than any other country. This is because it has the privilege of having the worlds most dominant internet companies located on its own soil, such as Google, Microsoft, Twitter and Meta. These organizations are required by law to share data with the US government and authorities should they request it. But the US has also gone even further, as revealed by the Washington Post in 2020, the CIA had secretly...

Earworms songs that get stuck in our heads "IndyWatch Feed Capricornia"

The song Cant Get You Out of My Head was a global hit for Kylie Minogue in 2001, and never was a song more aptly named. It was the object of Kylies affection that she couldnt get out of her head, but the song itself got stuck inside so many of us at the time. It became one of the biggest ear worms ever.

An ear worm is a song so catchy it plays like a loop in our heads and cant easily be forced out. Songwriters try to create catchy, memorable tunes that become as familiar to us as old friends, that well always welcome into our hearing. But sometimes a song is just too memorable, its hooks and melodies too catchy, and so, an ear worm is born.

Queen, Pharrel Williams, Lady Gaga, Meghan Trainor, Final Countdown, Gangnam Style, and more. Tune in for some great ear worms.

Is Henry Makow Good for the Jews? "IndyWatch Feed National"

HenryMakow.com April 7, 2023 

(Good for the Jews   as in reflects positively on Jews in general )

Got this today from a longtime Jewish correspondent and historical revisionist-

We both had Jewish mothers. We are both aware of the worlds villains. When you label Jews, satanic, you imperil nice people, like me. You also endanger nice people like my kids and my grandkids (who arent satanic btw) and thousands of grandmas who make delicious chicken noodle soup. Do you have grandkids, Henry? (Hitler didnt, thats why THEY used him as the ruse to protect their identities.) I remember being caught in a school lockdown while visiting my grandkids school for a play. It was a Jewish school. Jewish schools must have security guards at the door. As do synagogues on Sabbath and holidays. We both know that bad people who call themselves Jews do bad things, like genocide. Nice Jews wind up paying for it. Those that survive, live in fear. The word Jew is like the word people. There are wonderful ones, mediocre ones, and horrible ones. I have dedicated my life to identifying the horrible ones that are above the law and get away scot-free for murdering millions both Jews and non-Jews. It wouldnt suck if you would differentiate the culprits from the victims. This may make you appear soft in the eyes of those of your readers who have been cultivated by indiscriminate hatred, however you wont appear to be a click whore to those of us who know the difference between the perpetrators and the victims. Im sure you have an answer to put me in my placelet it rip.

I make that distinction all the time. In fact I am proof that all Jews are not Satanists. But Jews  are too brainwashed to see  that I am actually fighting anti semitism.

This is from the article currently on my homepage. An apology is in order.

Ordinary Jews cant believe it because they are not Satanists. But many Cabalist Jews are. They have the money, comprise the secret leadership, and manipulate the rest.  Trachtenberg was a Reform Rabbi for 30 years. His portrait gazes down on his personal library housed at Temple Emeth in Teaneck NJ.

He is one of many decent Jews like my former self who have been used as dupes and shills for the Illuminati under the aegis of communism, socialism, liberalism, feminism, Zionism, neoconservatism and gay rights.

In the eyes of Jewish dupes, antisemitism is not caused by the sociopathic Communist Satanic agenda of Organized Jewry which includes fake pandemics, and lockdowns, toxic vaccines,...

Hamas Praises Heroic Shooting Operation Against Israeli Settlers

Friday, 07 April 2023 6:04 PM 

Hamas spokesman Mohammad Hamada

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has praised as heroic a Friday shooting operation in the occupied West Bank, saying it showed resistance forces are ready to quickly react to any act of aggression by the Israeli regime.

Hamas spokesman Mohammad Hamada said described the attack, which left two settlers dead and another injured, as a crushing response to Israels aggression. He said resistance is now in the hearts of Palestinians and Israeli aggression against al-Aqsa Mosque and its defenders wont go unanswered.

Hamada reiterated Hamass position that al-Aqsa is a red line for Palestinians.

Iran says the international community should take effective and deterrent action against Israel.

The shooting attack left two Israeli settlers dead and another seriously injured near the settlement of Hamra in the West Bank.

It said the women were fired on in a car in the northern part of the Jordan Valley.

No group has so far claimed responsibility for the attack.

The Israeli military said it had launched a manhunt for the perpetrators of Friday's shooting.

The regime carried out airstrikes and artillery bombardment on the Gaza Strip and Lebanon following rocket attacks in retaliation for Israeli assaults against unarmed worshippers at al-Aqsa in the past couple of days.

IAEA Head Adjusting His Zaporozhye NPP Security Initiative Russian Diplomat

Rafael Grossi visited the Zaporozhye NPP on March 29

MOSCOW, April 8. /TASS/. International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi is trying to "adjust" his initiative on security and safety of Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant to speed up its implementation, there is no question of delaying the process. Mikhail Ulyanov, Russias envoy to the international organizations in Vienna, said this talking to TASS.

According to the diplomat, certain changes in Grossi's approaches to ensuring nuclear and physical nuclear safety and security at the Zaporozhye NPP occurred even before his last visit to the plant on March 29.

"He [Grossi] refused to use the word "zone" and clearly indicated that the object of protection would be the plant itself, without the territories adjacent to it. It seems that there is no question of delaying the process. Rafael Grossi is trying to adjust his initiative in such a way as to speed up its implementation," Ulyanov explained.

Grossi visited the Zaporozhye NPP on March 29. He inspected the plant facilities that had been damaged in Ukrainian shelling attacks. In particular, he could see the site between the coolant reservoirs at the fourth power unit that had been hit by a Ukrainian rocket. It was Grossis second visit to the nuclear power plant in the past six months (his first visit took place on September 1, 2022).

On April 5, the head of the IAEA visited Kaliningrad and discussed the security issues of the Zaporozhye NPP there with high-ranking representatives of several Russian agencies.

Mikhail Ulyanov noted that the consultations on this issue, which took place on April 5 during Grossi's visit to Kaliningrad, "were held in a businesslike and constructive manner"

There are two kinds of people: Those who think everything is binary, and those who dont "IndyWatch Feed National"

Transcript below the fold.

About two weeks ago, I posted a video titled Theres a lot more to it! that pointed out that Richard Dawkins was wrong to claim that there are just two sexes, and thats all there is to it. Of course I got pushback, I expected it. So today Im going to respond to some of it.

First, I got a polite email asking for clarification.

Heres the dilemma: Im also a long time reader of Dr. Jerry Coynes blog. Quite a while ago, he wrote a piece about how gender is fluid, but sex, biologically speaking, can only be male and femalethat in mammals, those are the only real choices and any variation from that is vanishingly small.

I gather from your writing you have a different opinion, a long with Hemant Mehta and others I respect. However, I havent found any good counter arguments to the arguments Dr. Coyne makes. I consider myself a trans-ally, and I feel like I need to better understand this issue.

So, if youve answered this on your blog and Ive missed it, or if you have any links to articles that address it, Id really appreciate the help.

OK, I can recognize that difference of opinion, but unfortunately, Im not a reader of Coynes blog, so please dont expect me to be familiar with his position. I had to go looking for his arguments. Theres only one, and here it is:

the sexes are basically defined by the gametes they produce. Big gametes = female, small gametes = male; these are, in our species, eggs and sperm, respectively.

He also says we should not discriminate against trans people, which is nice and I agree, but his one argument is seriously flawed: it is deeply, profoundly, fundamentally reductionist. It is so reductionist it ought to be taken as a reductio ad absurdum it is a disproof of its own proposition by showing that it leads to absurd and untenable conclusions.

It should be obvious that you cannot define people by their gametes. If this were true, there would be no debate about trans participation in sports: the only effect of sex is to specify which of two flavors of gametes they produce, and the only sports where it would matter are those that are carried out in a petri dish between single cells. But no! Everyone is aware that sex contributes to all kinds of differences beyond their gametes. The whole problem is that we KNOW that there are far-reaching developmental changes that occur after fertilization and as a consequence of sex differences, which are both more subtle and more comp...

Highly Vaccinated COVID Success New Zealand Sees Huge Increase in Death Rates "IndyWatch Feed National"

Concerning increase in mortality in New Zealand

By Ian Miller | Unmasked | April 7, 2023

COVID has unfortunately created any number of repetitive stories.

Jurisdiction imposes mask mandates, population complies, masks prove ineffective, media claims masks didnt work because of lack of compliance.

Another example would be when countries with extraordinary compliance, such as Singapore or South Korea, would see increases ignored entirely, or blamed on the population not wearing masks of a correct level of quality.

Yet as a general rule, the most consistently predictable repetitive storyline has been the media and expert community declaring that a country was a pandemic success, only for their results to dramatically change in a relatively short period of time.

This was the case with the Czech Republic, with Australia, with Taiwan and many other locations.

Even within the United States adjustments showed that states like California heralded as pandemic winners actually had significantly worse results than previously realized.

But few places on earth have been as heavily praised as New Zealand.

Their science-following leadership was repeatedly hailed, honored, and praised for their effective communication, endless lockdowns, tyrannical response to protests, and prolific commitment to mandates.

All of the above, combined with their strict border controls, should have meant that New Zealand would avoid the significant increase in negative outcomes seen in other parts of the world.

At least, thats what the media and activist public health authorities claimed would happen.

The reality is far more complicated.

New Zealands COVID Metrics

Throughout 2020 and into 2021, New Zealand saw very little COVID transmission.

Unsurprisingly, the BBC praised the country for their efforts, explaining in detail how the country had become COVID free.

Jacinda Arden, now former prime minister, was once so completely committed to maintaining an illusion of infallibility that she claimed that the only source of accurate information available to the public was the government.

Of course, Arden then made the provably inaccurate claim that those who were vaccinated would net get sick and would not die.

The Dangers of Artificial General Intelligence "IndyWatch Feed National"

In the video above, Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, discusses the exponential advancements in artificial general intelligence (AGI), spearheaded by OpenAI and DeepMind, which is owned by Google.

OpenAI is the creator of ChatGPT, which has taken the world by storm. It's the most rapidly adopted tech platform in history, acquiring more than 1 million users in the first five days.1 Less than two months after its public release, it had more than 100 million users.2

"GPT" stands for "generative pretrained transformer," and the "chat" indicates that it's a chatbot. The first GPT platform was created by OpenAI in 2018. GPT-3.5 was released in November 2022 and the newest version, 4.0, was released a few weeks ago.3

ChatGPT uses machine learning statistical pattern finding in huge datasets to generate human-like responses in everyday language to any question asked. It basically works by predicting what the next word in a sentence ought to be based on previous examples found in the massive amounts of data that it has access to.

AGI Will Be a Central Part of the Control Grid

While AI platforms like ChatGPT are neutral in and of themselves, it's already crystal clear that they will become an integral part of the globalist control grid. In short order, chatbots will replace conventional search engines, and this, unfortunately, could easily transform our world into something straight out of the 2006 sci-fi-comedy "Idiocracy," considering the bias being built in.

No longer will you get even a small variety of potential answers to your questions. AI will give you the answer, and opposing viewpoints won't even be part of the equation. The dangers of this should be obvious. Whatever a totalitarian regime wants the population to think and believe is what the AI will provide. As a result, true learning, and hence personal development, will essentially cease.

ChatGPT Poised to Deceive the Masses

To make my point, consider the following answers I got when I asked OpenAI's ChatGPT and Microsoft Bing's OpenAI-powered search engine but highly customized by Microsoft4 to edit and improve a speech I had written. These were their responses. They are both highly biased and prejudiced, but OpenAI's response is beyond tame compared to Microsoft's Bing version.

Comrade Dan goes grovelling to CCP paymasters to prop up state "IndyWatch Feed Capricornia"

By TONY MOBILIFONITIS
COMRADE Dan Andrews must be missing the days when the 10,000 kids of Chinese Communist Party officials studying in Melbourne came out on the streets loudly demonstrating in favour of their Great Leader Xi.

In fact Xis revolutionary kids were agitating right across Australia, for instance putting pressure on Queensland University to punish a student named Drew Pavlou who in 2019 organised a protest against Chinas brutal suppression of Hong Kong people and some 1.5 million Uighurs in western China, who have been shunted into re-education camps.

Pavlous demonstration upset the so-called Confucius Institute, which had set up 13 of its propaganda outlets across Australia. Then came Covid and a Coalition Federal Government veto of the institutes and the CCPs privileged kids, spies and various operatives left Australia in large numbers.

But now that Comrade Albanese rules in Canberra, Comrade Dan wants the Chinese commie kids back in their thousands and too bad about...

Size and structure of the Qld economy: today vs 1939-40 using Colin Clarks estimates "IndyWatch Feed Qld"

<p>Back in the nineties, a history-conscious Queensland Treasury official saved a 1944 chart on Post-war Employment Planning from the rubbish bin during an office cleanout (Figure 1).

West Papua and an indigenous-led future "IndyWatch Feed Niugini"

West Papua and an indigenous-led future

Events, Apr 7th

On Tuesday 18th April there will be an opportunity to listen to members of the West Papuan Liberation Movement to learn about the anti-colonial struggle in West Papua, and their vision for an ecological future. The free online event is supported by the Land Workers Alliance (LWA) and will feature Benny Wenda and Raki Ap from the Free West Papua campaign.

Many of you will no doubt have heard of Benny Wenda. In 1977 the Indonesian military, who have been in continual and ongoing occupation of West Papua since the early 1960s, began to attack the villages of the indigenous Lani people, including the village where Benny lived as a child. Members of his family were raped, mutilated and murdered as the West Papuan people were forced into subjugation by the brutal Indonesian regime. Later that year, 15,000 Lani people rebelled, but Lani villages (including Bennys) were bombed by the Indonesian military aircraft in retaliation (Britain would suspend the sale of BAE Systems Hawk Jets to Indonesia when they later bombed villages in East Timor, but, until very recently, British Hawk Jets continued to be the backbone of the Indonesian militarys air power). It is estimated that between 100,000 and 500,000 people have been killed in the West Papuan conflict since 1962. Benny became a freedom fighter for the West Papuan Liberation Movement and was himself imprisoned and tortured before he managed to escape to the UK where he still lives in exile.

In 2004, Benny founded the Free West Papua campaign. Raki Ap, international spokesperson for the campaign, will join Benny for the online event. Raki works tirelessly to highlight the fact that the liberation and self-determination of West Papua has the potential to save the worlds third largest rainforest. West Papua covers the two western peninsulas of New Guinea, the worlds second largest island and a major hotspot for biodiversity. Indonesia is the worlds largest producer of everyones favourite ecological disaster palm oil. West Papua has one of the highest levels of plant diversity in the world, it is also home to an incredible diversity of fauna and human cultures. Imagine what the palm oil industry will do to that.

Diversity, of course, is an anathema to neoliberalism. And Indonesias current foreign economic policy (FEP) is straight out of the neoliberal playbook. Indonesia seeks economic self-sufficiency and its constitution and political focus would seem to run contrary to...

Cometh the Chinese, Saith Blinken. Run. "IndyWatch Feed National"

I was pleasantly surprised a couple of months ago to get a call from Wang Fang Pi of the Chinese Political Affairs branch in New York, an old friend. Fang Pi headed the speech-writing office.  I had met him in a press bar in Bangkok while on a junket for the Washington Times and we had stayed in touch for a while. 

He told me that he had been assigned the writing of a speech to be delivered by the Chinese consul before the United Nations in answer to charges of Chinese aggression by Tony Blinken. Would I, off the record, help him write the thing? 

To one unfamiliar with the workings of the national press it might seem strange that he would ask this of me, a retired mid-rank journalist of no national importance. But in the hothouse world of Washingtons press, who you know often counts for more than whether you are famous. He said that he had always liked my style and that, although a graduate of Harvard, he was not confident of his mastery of the fine points of English. Shang I Hau, the diplomatic functionary who would deliver the speech, was incensed at Chinas being accused of aggressiveness by Blinken. Would I write something that was clear and, though he didnt use the phrase, pulled no punches? No contract was involved, no payment. 

Really, this is how things are done. It meant for me a long afternoon and an email to Fang Pi, which he might use, ignore, or pick bits from. Since Violeta and I were leaving the next day for a back-country trip with no internet, I had to get busy right away. OK, fair enough. 

I had never met Blinken as he became SecState well after I left Washington. An hours Googling andhe came forth from the web fog as pretty much generic Washington, brightish, somewhat egotistical, and perhaps too self-confident, too much a believer in American omnipotence, meaning he was given more to issuing orders than negotiating. OK, nothing new here. 

But how to counter charges of Chinese aggressiveness? ...

We Have No Other Home: Alaska Tribes Sue to Stop Largest Pure Gold Mine "IndyWatch Feed National"

If the Donlin Gold Mine is built as planned in Southwest Alaska, it would be the largest pure gold mine in the world. It would also lead to the filling of thousands of acres of wetlands, harm salmon and rainbow smelt and risk a catastrophic spill of 20 to 40 percent of the up to 568 million tons of toxic waste that could end up stored behind a 471-foot tailings dam.

Thats why three Indigenous Tribes filed a lawsuit Wednesday to block the project, arguing that it threatens the Kuskokwim River ecosystem that they have relied on since time immemorial. 

Weve been on this land for almost 10,000 years. What will happen if a tailings spill occurs? Orutsararmiut Native Council Executive Director Brian Henry said in a statement emailed to EcoWatch. We all know the answer. It would be catastrophic to our people and our way of life. We have no other home.

The Orutsararmiut Native Council filed the lawsuit alongside the Tuluksak Native Community and the Organized Village of Kwethluk in the U.S. District Court in Alaska, with Earthjustice acting as the Tribes representatives. In particular, the Tribes want the court to invalidate the major permits for the project, the Orutsararmiut Native Council explained in a statement. These are the 2018 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS); the Joint Record of Decision in favor of the project from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the Department of the Interior (DOI); the Army Corps approval to fill thousands of acres of wetlands for the projectwhich the lawsuit says would drain water from salmon-bearing streamsand a BLM and DOI permit for a natural gas pipeline that would run for 316 miles from Cook Inlet to the mine to act as a power source. 

The lawsuit claims these approvals have three major flaws:

  1. The FEIS did not fully release the findings of an Alaska assessment of the health impacts of the mine.
  2. It did not consider the impact of a full tailings spill, only a spill involving less than one percent of a potential tailings dams capacity.
  3. The Army Corps didnt consider how increased barge traffic on the riv...

NASA Says That Something Weird Is Happing In The Universe Right Now "IndyWatch Feed National"

In a recent press release, NASA announced that the Hubble Space Telescope has uncovered new data that suggests something mysterious is happening in our universe. This discrepancy, which remains unexplained, could potentially point to the need for brand-new physics to understand the workings of the cosmos.

The Hubble Space Telescope has been gathering data on a variety of cosmic objects that serve as distance markers. These markers, which are essential for understanding the expansion rate of the universe, are revealing a puzzling inconsistency. The data collected by Hubble indicates that the universe is expanding faster than expected, based on predictions from the early universes conditions as observed by the European Space Agencys Planck satellite.

This discrepancy, which has been dubbed the Hubble tension, has persisted despite numerous attempts to refine the measurements and observations. The cause of this tension remains a mystery, but the data gathered by Hubble supports the idea that something unusual is happening, possibly involving a new, undiscovered aspect of physics.

One of the potential explanations for this inconsistency could involve the presence of dark energy, an enigmatic force that is believed to drive the accelerated expansion of the universe. Some scientists have speculated that dark energy may be interacting with other cosmic forces in a way that has not yet been understood. Alternatively, the discrepancy could point to the existence of new particles or forces, which would require an update to our current understanding of fundamental physics.

The search for answers to this cosmic mystery will likely involve further observations and data collection from telescopes like Hubble, as well as from upcoming missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope and the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope. These future missions could provide additional insights into the nature of this discrepancy and help astronomers determine whether new physics are indeed needed to explain the observed phenomena.

As NASAs press release suggests, the persistent discrepancy in our understanding of the universes expansion rate is both intriguing and challenging. The data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope is supporting the idea that something mysterious is happening, possibly involving new and undiscovered physics. As scientists continue to gather information and observe the universe, it is possible that this enigma will lead to groundbreaking discoveries, reshaping our comprehension of the cosmos and its underlying principles.

Defund the police "IndyWatch Feed National"

Policing in postcolonial Kenya is at an impasse. What is needed is disinvestment from this system of repression and reinvestment in communities.

Photo by Kate Darmody on Unsplash

The African-American political activist and academic, Angela Davis, opens her seminal book Are Prisons Obsolete? with a discussion of how prisons have come to seem so natural that it is extremely hard to imagine a life without them. The same could be said of the police. We take up Daviss question and apply it to the Kenyan police. Given the failures of Kenyas police reform process, which we discuss in our ongoing research projects (see two examples here and here), the question being posed by many is: what comes next? Our answer is that there is a deep argument for the abolition of the Kenyan police altogether.


Postcolonial policing at an impasse

Police, we are told, are essential for providing security and are foundational parts of modern society, ensuring democracy and keeping people safe. In practice however, police across much of the African continent are often those who wield the baton (or the gun) against civil society, repressing social movements for democracy and justice, and playing a key historical role in propping up the continents most repressive regimes by force. In more mundane contexts, police extort populations daily through prevalent demands for bribes. In Nairobi, residents of Eastleigh, for example, complain about how the police treat the neighborhood like an ATM. Meanwhile, rampant...

New Dawn FM News

All of us, each and everyone of us, no-one is above or below, we are entitled to enjoy the new life in Jesus Christ, said Chief John L. Momis.
This was the sentiment shared by longtime Bougainvillean politician Chief Dr Momis on what Easter means for us.
Easter for us means we have been totally liberated, death has no power over us. This was shown when God died for us and rose on the third day, says Momis.
He said God created man and therefore was the pinnacle of his creation, as God gave us the power of will and knowledge.
Man is therefore able to go into space and create inventions such a vehicle or watch from the knowledge God gave us. We create our own world, he said.
Momis further added Independence for Bougainville will also be achieved through the hard work of each and everyone of us, as Bougainvilleans.
You can talk about Independence but if you are not doing the right thing it wont happen. You must serve the people well, so all of us each and everyone of us are entitled to share the new life, the resurrected life in Christ Jesus. Happy Easter. Ends///ak

060423 Boxing champ encourages youth to keep away from drugs

New Dawn FM News

A former professional boxer is using boxing as a sport to bring youths away from such bad social activities especially smoking marijuanna and drinking homebrew which is becoming a huge problem in the region.
Vincent Kokovi, a former 10th professional boxer and PNG representative is coaching a team of young vibrant men and women in the Central region of Bougainville, from a small village Wisai, next to Rumba in the North Nasioi area.
Kokovi began fighting since he was 19 years old in 1975, now at the age of 65year old he is now head coach of Team Central Bougainville.
Team Central had fought and won most fights in the recent 4th Bougainville Games held at Wakunai District in Central Bougainville.
Kokovi had brought a team of 9 fighters, 2 girls and 7 boys and said their level of fitness is above the par to participate in the upcoming PNG Games in NCD this year.
He said sports has educated him and brought him to travel the world, places he could only dream of going.
In 1975 Kokovi trained and fought under his first club in Port Moresby and later approached by John and Tony Abba Makapai who asked him to join their club to train and fight.
I was selected after two years to fight at the Commando games in Brisbane in 1982. Then I returned and was selected to fight at the South Pacific games in Western Samoa. In 1998 I travelled to Solomon Island to attend the Melanesian Cup.
When I returned to Port Moresby, I stopped working and returned to Arawa. I started the Bamaku Club, it was one of the top clubs in Arawa, Kieta.
My first fighter was Jonahs Bare who went to fight in the Olympics, in South Korea.
Then, I trained Philemon Kokovi, my brother, who went to fight in the South Pacific Games in New Caledonia and to Oceania games in Western Samoa.
Now, Maxi Magea,my fighter of whom I trained, went to take part in the South Pacific games in Western Samoa. Thaddius Katua was a boxer training under coach Vincent Kokovi who participated in the Rabaul games, said Kokovi.
He recalled while representing PNG, no other fighter had beat him until the Bougainville crisis had put a stop to his career as a professional boxing champion.
Kokovi said when he began fighting under the 10th pro belt companies supported him through included SP Brewery, Benson and Hedges, Air Niugini and BNGBC.
He knew as a fighter he would one day hang his boxing gloves and become a professional trainer.
Kokovi urged the ABG government to invest into sporting facilities on the ground to keep our youths busy.
He said belief in your self and follow your trainers rules and guidelines and you will succeed in life. He also encouraged young men and women to stop homebrew and marijuanna and focus on which sporting games to keep them busy. Drinking homebrew and smoking marijuanna and carrying boombox will not hel...

060423 PNG urged to devalue kina to solve foreign exchange concerns
New Dawn FM News

Papua New Guineas Government is being urged to devalue its own currency - Kina, and lift restrictions on foreign exchange reserves, otherwise, economists say consumers will face an increase in the price of goods and services which will have major impacts on families.

Belinda Kora reports, the warning comes as two large businesses in PNG threatened to close down.

Times are tough in Papua New Guinea for businesses and consumers but economist and Loewe Institute fellow Mahalopa Lavell says alarm bells have been ringing for sometime pointing to a 2014 survey by Price Waterhouse Coopers highlighting the shortage of foreign exchange.

Meanwhile, the manufacturers council of Papua New Guinea is concerned the government isn't doing enough to address the challenges faced by businesses, Chase Cavell is the CEO, even senior public servants say they want to have competitive industries in PNG.

The issue is that when we talk about the problems very little gets done.
If we look at high level issues in foreign currency this has been going on since June 2014. The solution is very simple allow exporters to hold foreign currency accounts in PNG to incentivise people to bring their earnings back on shore. We continue to have a significant trade surplus.

But weve got to chronic shortage of foreign currency coming into the country. No body is bringing it back.

This is contributing to the lack of business confidence. by the fact that businesses have not been able to pay dividends for 9 years now and also businesses their sales are down 1020 as much as 50% simply for the fact that they cant get enough of the other inputs that they require to run their business.

Consumers already feeling the pinch and says cost of living is soaring in most major cities and towns.

High rate of unemployment, and closure of large industries can have an adverse impact on the economy and cost of living.

Mahalopa Lavell says the Government can do more to protect the interests of consumers from such a very crucial economic time.

The government can do more by directing the bank of PNG to develop more quickly, it was governments direction from the fuel crisis that we saw, Puma Energy at least the fuel shortage that Puma energy brought about because there werent excessive forex for their jet A1 fuel and for other fuel generally, government can do more in that it can excellerate its resource deals and also receive more of its loans in grants upfront which is a difficult task.

But all of this is to say that if it receives more foreign direct ivestment and more grants and loans denominated in US dollars then it can increase the foreign reserves that it has parked with the bank of PNG and therefore then it can increase the foreign reserves that it has parked with the...

Endocrinologist Forecasts More Hormone-Related Diseases as Spike Proteins Found to Deplete Endocrine Reserves "IndyWatch Feed National"

2nd Smartest Guy in the World | April 5, 2023

As this substack had predicted years ago, the slow kill bioweapon injections may cause SADS or they may render the injected feeling fine for years, until their biology finally succumbs to the mRNA poison triggering a whole host of delayed adverse events from turbo cancers to infertility and unprecedented miscarriages to prion-based diseases to heart conditions, strokes and God knows what else

As this substack had also predicted, at some stage it will be impossible to deny the bioterror eugenics that was perpetrated against humanity even WEF-run nations like Australia will have no choice but to concede to the death and destruction by injection; to wit:

And right on cue yet another BigPharma insider makes a devastating admission:

No, the vax is certainly not a real one, not that any vaccine is really real in terms of safety or efficacy.

Another Former Associate with Jeffrey Epstein Files to Run for U.S. President in 2024 "IndyWatch Feed National"

by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

It has been widely reported today that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has filed to run for the office of the U.S. Presidency in 2024, giving Americans two candidates now, one in each party, who are former associates with convicted child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and are running for President.

Just about everyone in the alternative media who has covered this announcement by RFK Jr. sees this as wonderful news, while the corporate media, which seem to be following some kind of script or press release, are all writing basically the same thing and choosing to just criticize his anti-vaxx positions.

This negative media coverage will of course only strengthen Kennedys support in the alternative media which thrives on negative news against the COVID shots.

What is lacking in all of this media coverage is the abundance of publicly available information about RFK Jr.s troubled past with sex and drugs, much of which was published back in 2015 by New York Times bestselling author, Jerry Oppenheimer, and his book: RFK Jr and the Dark Side of the Dream, which the New York Daily News described as A bombshell unauthorized biography tells the haunting past that kept Kennedy from following in his fathers footsteps.

So a member of the incredibly famous Kennedy family, who just a few years ago was considered by most in the media as unelectable and has never previously held a public elected office before, is now being funded by a wealthy Silicon Valley Technocrat who apparently believes that he can buy a U.S. President.

Is Robert F. Kennedy Really an Anti-Vaxxer?

BBC Goes into Antarctica Climate Meltdown But Ignores Data Showing No Loss of Ice "IndyWatch Feed National"

BY CHRIS MORRISON | THE DAILY SCEPTIC | APRIL 5, 2023

The BBC recently ran a story claiming that the Antarctic ocean currents were heading for collapse, and to drive home the scare there was even a reference to the 2004 climate disaster film, The Day After Tomorrow. Rapidly melting Antarctic ice was reported to be causing a dramatic slowdown in deep ocean currents, and could have a disastrous effect on the climate. Like most of these fanciful scare stories, could is doing a lot of the heavy lifting work. But alas, missing from this Net Zero-promoting, model-inventing Armageddon tall tale was a note that the Antarctica ice cap appears to be in balance, and is not actually melting.

According to a paper written by NASA satellite ice-mapping scientists in 2021, Antarctica is close to balance in the period 2012-16 at -12 +/- 64 Gt a-1. Gt are gigatonnes and the formula is a scientific way of saying that as near as damn it, well within a margin of error, the Antarctica ice sheet loss is, more or less, zero. Back to 1992, the scientists found large total gains for the sheet.

According to the story in the BBC, reported faithfully in numerous media, as fresh water from the ice cap melts, sea water becomes less salty and dense and a downwards movement of water towards the sea bottom is interrupted. This in turn can affect world oceanic currents. The activist science blog the Conversation reported that torrents of Antarctic meltwater are slowing the currents that drive our vital ocean overturning and threaten its collapse. The BBC noted that a similar collapse in the North Atlantic was depicted in The Day After Tomorrow.

As regular readers will recall, the Daily Sceptic has observed that Antarctica is a difficult neighbourhood for activists to get a good scare story going. Over the last seven decades, there has been little or no warming over large parts of the continent. According to a recent paper, (...
