			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The year is 2010 and to anyone not in denial, the industrialized nations have entered the greatest calamity the world has ever known:</p>
<ul>
<li>Iceland is history.</li>
<li>Greece’s economy, much like the ancient Parthenon, is in ruin.</li>
<li>46 states could face bankruptcy in the United States.</li>
</ul>
<h2><span style="font-weight: normal;font-size: 13px">So then, why is President <em>Obama going back on his word and drilling holes in the earth?</em></span></h2>
<p>The Interior Department under Barack Obama offered for sale more acres of dry-land drilling on public lands than the Bush Administration had at the same point in 2008.</p>
<p>An economy in a state of rigor mortis doesn’t need oil to lubricate an engine that blew up on October 29, 2008, and our way of life won’t come back if the oil industry creates a handful of jobs or we reduce our dependence on foreign oil.</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill </em>didn’t make<em> </em>environmental<em> </em>sense in 1973 or 2008</strong></p>
<p>In 1973<em>,</em> America’s solution to the Arab oil embargo and long gas lines wasn’t mass transit, high mileage cars or alternative energy, it was the 800 mile Trans-Alaska Pipeline through some of the most pristine country in Alaska.</p>
<p>Then in 2008, in response to $5.00/gallon gasoline, Americans agreed to give up their last Arctic Wilderness and do more offshore drilling.</p>
<p>Despite the fact that the oil companies and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), an independent statistical agency within the Department of Energy, estimated that new oil from ANWR would have only a negligible impact on the world price of oil. The EIA projection for oil production in the ANWR would amount to 0.4 to 1.2 percent of total world oil consumption in <em>2030</em>, assuming the U.S. congress approved legislation to drill, back in 2008.</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill hasn’t made economic sense for at least the </em>last 20 years!<em> </em></strong></p>
<p>Matt Simmons an investment banker, considered to be a mover and shaker in<strong> </strong>the oil industry thinks he, “spent his career in the wrong kind of barrels.”</p>
<p>[From a presentation by Matt Simmons at the 2004 Offshore Technology Conference [1]]</p>
<p>It will take 16 trillion dollars to replace the production we now have on line and add to it by 2030.  Oil or another form of energy is an indispensable requisite for life as we know it.</p>
<p>But over the past 20 years, oil has been a terrible investment.  A 15% return on investment (ROI) is what one expects to get from a building.  Oil’s ROI has largely been less than 15%.  Scotch returns 50% ROI, wine returns 15%.</p>
<p>Why has oil given such a lousy return?</p>
<p>Because spot energy pricing, where oil is bought and sold like a commodity has destroyed long term value for the oil industry.  Spot markets make all contracts short term, so no one is looking out for the future.</p>
<blockquote><p>“The not-so-invisible hand of JP Morgan Chase is guilty of the ongoing intentional, not accidental, great crime of manipulating the spot markets, <em>lower</em>, not higher as you would expect. So you could, prior to 2008, ‘save money and live better’ while at the same time pollute the environment.” (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article7746.html">Silver, But No Silver Lining</a>)</p></blockquote>
<p>[End of the Matt Simmons Presentation]</p>
<p>Why has oil been a “terrible investment”?</p>
<p>Inexplicably, the industry picks the most expensive places on the earth to drill for oil.</p>
<ul>
<li>Chevron spent $2.7 billion over 10 years on just the first phase of a deep-water oil project in the Gulf. Other sub-salt discoveries involve drilling more than 30,000 feet, some of the most expensive wells ever drilled.</li>
</ul>
<p>On January 7, 2010, the Wall Street Journal published, “Cramped on Land, Big Oil Bets at Sea”</p>
<blockquote><p>“Big Oil never wanted to be here, in 4,300 feet of water far out in the Gulf of Mexico, drilling through nearly five miles of rock. It is an expensive way to look for oil.”</p></blockquote>
<p>“You really don’t need to know a lot about geology or oil to figure out something is wrong here, why don’t they go back to the old days and drill oil wells onshore?” (<em>Buy Oil Stocks… No Matter What</em>, Chris Mayer)</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill, Environmental damage is the answer</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>The <em>Environmental</em> damage and pollution to the earth from the role petroleum products play in modern society; the intentional and accidental releases into the environment, was th<em>e Goal, </em>Not The Unintended Consequence of the Petroleum Industry<em>.</em> <em></em></p></blockquote>
<p>The Powers That Be (TPTB), are in a metaphysical struggle with Mother-Earth (Gaea) and created the middle class afflicted with “The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement” (The American Dream) for the last 75 years, in order to weaken the planet with environmental damage and pollution. (<em><a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a></em>)</p>
<p>Until October 2008, the huddled “middle class” masses should have been thanking John D. Rockefeller and the Petroleum industry for letting former serfs and slaves drive cars, trucks, motorcycles and RVs to the mall so they could consume useless toxic products from the petroleum industry. (<em><a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article12261.html">Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité – Providence, Miracle or What Really Happened</a></em>)</p>
<p>But at the same time they should have been blaming them for, putting the planet, according to a massive United Nations report the GEO4, at the “unknown points of no return”</p>
<p><em>TPTB believed </em>if they gave up their real wealth: Raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, copper, silver and gold in exchange for $500 trillion of the fiat currency (Monopoly money) they created out of thin air so the middle class<em> </em>could<em> </em>live the American Dream, a nightmare for Gaea, they would attain immortality in a period known as the New World Order (Millennium).</p>
<blockquote><p>The New Heavens and the New Earth is the eternal destination and a thousand years of peace and plenty and paradise on Earth for The House of Rothschild, Global elite, Illuminati, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (righteous people).</p></blockquote>
<p>On October 29, 2008, TPTB determined their plan did not succeed: They were <em>unable</em> to defeat Gaea.</p>
<blockquote><p>Gehenna and the abyss is the eternal destination and a thousand years of punishment for The House of Rothschild, Global elite, Illuminati, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (wicked people).</p></blockquote>
<p>TPTB did not wish to spend eternity in Hell, so between October of 2008 and October 2009, they threatened Gaea with World War III. &#8220;Escalation Scenarios: The Third World War and Its Aftermath&#8221; (Pakalert) and Dr. Strangelove articles were everywhere in the media.</p>
<blockquote><p>The Book of Revelation describes the final battle with Gaea and there is no Nuclear World War III at Armageddon in the valley of Megiddo.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Therefore, the escalation scenarios were a bluff (we hope).</p>
<p>Rev 9:16 describes a hand-to-hand combat when the world ends. A Nuclear Armageddon would make too much of the planet uninhabitable for the One World governors and the 500 million “useful eaters” they need for slaves when they take over the world.</p></blockquote>
<p>Google Trends confirmed the TPTB thought the bluff was successful when the Nuclear War headlines were replaced with the Swine Flu.</p>
<blockquote><p>“President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency.” <em>Washington Post</em> (October 25, 2009)</p></blockquote>
<p>The nation’s chief health officer had the power to let hospitals move emergency rooms offsite to speed up the immunization of the masses with a shot-based on genome sequencing–a biotechnology that allows a doctor to tailor medical treatments to an individual’s genetic profile:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here for your shot?”</p>
<p>“Worried about the Bird Flu? Oh of course sit here, roll up your sleeve. Oops, sorry you died.”</p>
<p>“Well I guess it was too late for you; next time, get here sooner!”</p></blockquote>
<p>The controversial Swine Flu vaccine, many believe, was a ruse to start us on a slow and orderly road to a population of slaves (useful eaters). (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article16671.html"><em>Ominous Signs Are Aligned: Not A Particularly Good Sign</em> (11-09)</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Bluff Unsuccessful, Perpetual Check</strong></p>
<p>As of November 10, 2010 swine flu articles were replaced with headlines about drilling holes in the earth indicating the bluff &#8211; the threat of a nuclear war failed.</p>
<p>In a futile attempt to avoid going to Hell, TPTB are drilling holes in the earth hoping to find a heretofore undiscovered vulnerability in the earth’s crust:</p>
<blockquote><p>Interior secretary Salazar announced 38 lease sales for oil and gas on public lands and 75 days later President Obama signed an executive order to loan two billion dollars of our “tax payers dollars” to a Brazilian Oil Exploration Company to drill for oil off the coast of Brazil.</p></blockquote>
<p>This is a strategy known in Chess as “perpetual check”  &#8211; a sequence of checks from which the opponent (Gaea) can escape, used by a player (TPTB) with a worse position in order not to lose the game.</p>
<p><strong>The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti – Check!</strong></p>
<p>F. William Engdahl, authority on the New World Order and most of the scholars, pundits and thinkers of our time have a strongly held belief that everything wrong in the world is because someone is, greedy, corrupt or just “power hungry.”</p>
<p>F.W.  and the “experts” believe we sent 20,000 US troops to Haiti on the pretext of humanitarian aid so  “Washington and private business interests tied to it could get a geopolitical prize of the first order.”</p>
<p>F.W.  writes prolifically about the New World Order at the Center for Global Research and would probably admit the Federal Reserve fiscal policy is as much about power as about money but without a metaphysical perspective, he would not agree the environmental damage and pollution was the goal of our consumer society.</p>
<p>“The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti” is his latest article that erroneously asserts that the real reason for the US military occupation of Haiti is so we can “carve up of the vast wealth of the nation.”</p>
<p>Haitian scholar Dr. Georges Michel, wrote that the U.S. has known about the vast oil and natural gas reserves in Haiti since 1908.</p>
<p>So why are we carving up Haiti now?</p>
<p>A clue to this enigma can be found in “The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti”:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The vast oil reserves of the Persian Gulf and of the region from the Red Sea into the Gulf of Aden are at a similar convergence zone of large tectonic plates, as are such oil-rich zones as Indonesia and the waters off the coast of California.</p>
<p>In short, in terms of the physics of the earth, precisely such intersections of tectonic masses as run directly beneath Haiti have a remarkable tendency to be the sites of vast treasures of minerals, as well as oil and gas, throughout the world.” (2005, Caribbean Basins, Tectonics and Hydrocarbons” Institute for Geophysics at the University of Texas)</p></blockquote>
<p>F.W. misses the significance of “determining as precisely as possible the relation between tectonic plates” but the geologists do not:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Jan. 12 earthquake was on a fault line that passes near potential gas reserves, said Stephen Pierce, a geologist who worked in the region for 30 years. The quake may have cracked rock formations along the fault, allowing gas or oil to temporarily seep toward the surface, he said yesterday in a telephone interview.</p>
<p>A geologist, callous as it may seem, tracing that fault zone from Port-au-Prince to the border looking for gas and oil seeps, may find a structure that hasn’t been drilled,” said Pierce, exploration manager at Zion Oil &amp; Gas Inc.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The earthquake in Haiti may have exposed vulnerability (a structure that hasn’t been drilled) in the earth’s crust and TPTB are rushing to take military advantage of their opponent. [2]</p>
<p><strong>Crusextraction of the Earth, Response: Earthquakes And Tsunamis</strong></p>
<p>In 2005, world oil-production alone (not including natural-gas) was an incomprehensible 80 – 100 million barrels of oil per day.</p>
<p>USGS coastal geologists understand these factors cannot be ignored as far as influencing earth crust stresses and<em> </em>confirm the earth’s response to extracting by force 3,360,000,000 – 4,200,000,000 gallons of the planets vital fluids every single day: Earthquakes and tsunamis.</p>
<p>While disagreement abounds on this topic, scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) say that oil production at plate boundaries where hard, rocky slabs slide against each other to releases tremendous amounts of energy and could be the cause for the 2004 quake that triggered a deadly tsunami in Sumatra.</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here&#8217;s how it works: With high-tech equipment, oil companies pinpoint oil-rich areas and use large drills to puncture the surface below the sea, sometimes as deep as 10,000 feet. As this pricey fluid gets sucked from the sediment pores, the surrounding rocks shift positions to fill in the newly vacated spaces. At a large scale, for example the volume displaced when millions of barrels of oil are produced, the land movement can actually cause a mini-seismic earthquake, said Robert Morton, a USGS coastal geologist.</p>
<p>During these various stages the globe of the earth is gradually being depressurized and cooled internally, causing contraction for both of these reasons. When objects cool down, they automatically shrink/contract in size. If you let high-pressure air or gas out of a cylinder, it forms ice around the outlet, and cools the entire cylinder. If you let some of the air out of a football, or basketball, the ball shrinks and goes badly out of shape.”</p></blockquote>
<p>“Apply that to the Earth and you have earthquakes – simple common-sense – not rocket-science. A fact so simple that anyone who understands the oil-extraction process would understand, but, because they are insanely-blinded by their insatiable greed and avarice, they often overlook the obvious.” (Paul Noel, JAH, Sterling D. Allan and Mary-Sue Halliburton) [3]</p>
<p><strong>The Crusextraction </strong></p>
<p>During the various stages of the energy extraction process, the globe of the earth suffers limitless pain as the area where the drilling occurs. It is gradually being depressurized and cooled internally, causing cycles of constriction, joint-rending cramps, intermittent partial asphyxiation and searing pain as they use large drills to puncture pericardium and into the heart, sometimes as deep as 10,000 feet.</p>
<p>As the serum gets sucked from the sediment pores, the surrounding rocks shift positions to fill the newly vacated spaces causing unbearable agony as the earth automatically contracts in size and goes badly out of shape resulting in a deep crushing pain.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I Thirst.&#8221; &#8220;My strength is dried up like a potsherd; my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.&#8221;(Psalm 22:15)</p></blockquote>
<p>Then another agony begins when millions of barrels of vital bodily fluids are produced.  This causes deep, crushing pain as the sac surrounding the bowels of the earth slowly fill with hydrocarbon soil and began to compress the tectonic plates causing (shock) mini-seismic earthquakes.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint, my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.&#8221; Psalm 22:14</p></blockquote>
<p>When the loss of fluids reaches a critical level, the earth is struggling to pump heavy, thick, sluggish serum that is not only pressurized, but is also hot. As it is extracted, the tortured lungs of the earth are suffocating and are making a frantic effort to inhale small gulps of air.</p>
<p>The pressure gradually decreases, making it less profitable to take the remaining serum, but to make doubly sure of a mortal wound, the legionnaire uses external-energy to pierce and inject cold water into the sac surrounding the heart.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;They shall look on Him whom they pierced.&#8221; Psalm 22:16,17</p>
<p>&#8220;And immediately there came out blood and water.&#8221; John 19:34</p></blockquote>
<p>As the sac fills with cold water, the last remaining serum floats up on top.</p>
<p>This escape of watery fluid from the sac surrounding the heart and the wound through the sac surrounding the interior of the heart causes painful Tsunamis. This is rather conclusive evidence that the earth was tormented but not “deceased”.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p>
<p>There are only three outcomes to this galactic metaphysical struggle that goes back, at least, to the Dark Ages: (<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a>)</p>
<ol>
<li>Gaea determines man’s future.</li>
<li>TPTB determine man’s future in a new World Order where they attain immortality and rid the planet of all but 500 million useful eaters.</li>
<li>TPTP are defeated (As I claim they were October 2008) and have three choices:
<ol>
<li>The dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan (TPTB) can accept defeat and agree to be tossed into the Abyss, be locked up for a 1000 years and then thrown into the Lake of Fire.</li>
<li>Make good on a threat of total world annihilation (i.e. Nagasaki and Hiroshima) and spend a 1000 years in the 700-acre, secret subterranean city, deep within the bedrock underneath Central Park in Manhattan (Manhattan Project). This assumes Gaea allows them to launch WWIII. [4]</li>
<li>Continue to drill holes in the earth (Perpetual Check) prolonging the inevitable looking for a heretofore-undiscovered vulnerability in the Earth’s crust.</li>
</ol>
</li>

<p>[2] Coso Springs &#8211; Check</p>
<p>Drilling holes in the earth’s crust for oil isn’t the only strategy for weakening the earth.</p>
<p>The U.S. Department of Energy has reported that just <em>one</em> geothermal location out of the hundreds that have been identified, is so powerful it has the potential to produce 50,000 times the known oil and gas reserves in the world.</p>
<p>The Naval Air Weapons Station, China Lake, sits on top of the Coso Hot Springs, one of the hottest land masses in the United States and could be vulnerability in the Earth.</p>
<p>To bring heat up to the surface they drill a hole <em>deep</em> into the Earth, tapping the area beneath the Earth&#8217;s surface that produces heat over 400 degrees. Next, they inject water into the hole. The water instantly boils and begins to produce steam that rises out of the hole.</p>
<p>[3] However, since A.D. 1900 [the dawn of the Industrial Age and our Consumer society], the growth in major earthquakes has been relentless. From 1900 to 1949 it averaged three major quakes per decade. From 1949 the increase became awesome with 9 killer quakes in the 1950&#8217;s; 13 in the 60&#8217;s; 56 in the 1970&#8217;s and an amazing 74 major quakes in the 1980&#8217;s. Finally, in the 1990&#8217;s, as [sic] the present rate, we will experience 125 major killer quakes in this decade (Source: U.S. Geological Survey Earthquake Report, Boulder, Colorado).</p>
<p>[4] Is there anything we can do to prevent total world annihilation?</p>
<p>This question was posed to Duncan O&#8217;Finioan at the September 2009, Awake and Aware Conference in Los Angeles put on Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy founders of Project Camelot.</p>
<p>Project Camelot Overview and mission statement: To provide researchers, activists and ‘whistleblowers’ with access to all forms of media in order to get the truth out. Our focus includes but is not limited to the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>extraterrestrial visitation and contact, time travel, mind control, classified advanced technology, free energy, possible coming earth changes, revealing plans that exist to control the human race.</li>
</ul>
<p>Project Camelot is clearly a disinformation project, <em>however</em> there is information in disinformation.</p>
<p>Duncan O&#8217;Finioan was a featured speaker at the September conference.</p>
<p>Duncan, allegedly, is a refugee from a US military program that trained super soldiers, with psychic abilities and uncommon strength –and skilled in psychotronics, that is: mind control.</p>
<p>[Excerpt from “We Are No Mind Control Experiment”] Kerry Cassidy</p>
<p>After Duncan tells you to avoid anything with the word Project on the front, (4:57, <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2197572">http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2197572</a>) he responds to a question from an attendee in the audience about the Illuminati.</p>
<p>Duncan: Find a teacher someone who is a true white lighter, work with them let em teach you.</p>
<p>Attendee: And the possible solution if we can send white light, energy and love, call it prayer, call it what you will. To…you know, it’s a radical idea, but to the Illuminati or the leaders out there, so that they can help to understand really what they are doing. And so they will have more love and actually change their mind to prevent unleashing such a super soldier force. As well as helping to shield them in the same energies that are shielding you so that the negative energies that are around them will not be able to be around them.</p>
<p>Duncan: You raise an excellent point, however the Illuminati know exactly what they are doing. What you are saying has merit and possibly has a chance…</p>
<p>Then Kerry Cassidy takes over the stage and delivers the following speech:</p>
<p>Kerry: OK I want I want to say something here, what we are talking about is awareness. OK, being awake and being aware knowing OK, becoming aware just the act of learning and becoming aware just what we are doing right here, this creates the power. OK, its not enough to just send blind light blind love. OK, it must be intelligent it must have perception attached you must do more than just give the heart. OK, you must understand what you are seeing and why you are doing what you are doing that’s so knowing, and putting that piece together that that’s  the missing piece. OK, and then, it’s awareness. OK, what you want to convey is the awareness of all the aspects of what’s going on there. OK, so if you are loving, you are loving consciously knowing all the parameters of what that means, not blindly OK, so don’t give your energy blindly. If you know if you want to give your energy… and power and light and love to the Illuminati, know what you are doing, be conscious while you are doing it.</p>
<p>[Review the ustream video below and confirm Kerry’s use of the word OK is a mind control trigger. <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2335499">Bill &amp; Kerry - General Discussion</a>]</p>
<p>Kerry: “If you want to give your energy… and power and light and love to the Illuminati”, to stop the Illuminati from unleashing total world annihilation, “know what you are doing, be conscious while you are doing it.”</p>

<p>Base on these statistics, the CDC is now desperately urging people to get vaccinated because they claim the pandemic might come back and vaccines are the best defense.</p>
<p>But here&#8217;s the part you&#8217;re NOT being told.</p>
<p>The CDC statistics lie by omission. They do not reveal the single most important piece of information about H1N1 vaccines: How many of the people who died from the swine flu had already been vaccinated?</p>
<p><strong>Many who died had already been vaccinated</strong></p>
<p>The CDC is intentionally not tracking how many of the dead were previously vaccinated. They want you (and mainstream media journalists) to mistakenly believe that ZERO deaths occurred in those who were vaccinated. But this is blatantly false. Being vaccinated against H1N1 swine flu offers absolutely no reduction in mortality from swine flu infections.</p>
<p>And that means roughly 20% of the 11,160 Americans who died from the swine flu were probably already vaccinated against swine flu. That comes to around 2,200 deaths in people who were vaccinated!</p>
<p>How do I know that swine flu vaccines don&#8217;t reduce infection mortality? Because I&#8217;ve looked through&#8230;</p></blockquote>

I believe when we have a thorough investigation, and we look at this, we’ll discover that’s the story – the world has been subjected to a stunt for the own greedy interests of the pharmaceutical companies.”</p>
<p>European countries bought billions of dollars worth of vaccine from pharmaceutical companies including Baxter, GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi-Pasteur. Some of the contracts included a clause where governments could get out of buying the drugs if they were no longer needed. But some, notably ones with GlaxoSmithKline, did not.</p>
<p>“We continue to support governments in managing the H1N1 influenza pandemic. This includes ongoing discussions about existing orders for our pandemic vaccines,” reads the officials statement from the company.</p>
<p>Governments all over Europe are now saddled with billions of dollars worth of unnecessary swine flu vaccine. They are trying to sell it, but supply now far exceeds demand. So because governments wanted to be seen to be acting decisively, the European taxpayers have found themselves seriously out of pocket.</p>
<p>Health expert Gawain Towler says pharmas will be pharmas, and it’s governments who should have been less gullible&#8230;</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>Reports circulating in the Kremlin today are stating that a US government contracted airplane piloted by American CIA agents and carrying a cargo of a ‘<em>mutated</em>’ swine flu virus intended for aerial spraying was shot down [photo top left] at China’s Shanghai Pudong airport by a saboteur team of what are believed to be Israeli Mossad soldiers seeking to prevent an American attack upon one of their Central Asian bases located in the Central Asian Nation of Kyrgyzstan.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to Chinese media <a href="http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2009-11/29/content_12558979.htm" target="_blank">reports on this incident</a> the stricken Zimbabwean MD-ll plane, owned by the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Category:CIA-linked_aircraft" target="_blank">CIA linked</a> Avient Aviation company operated by a former British military officer named <a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article634255.ece" target="_blank">Andrew Smith</a> and <a href="http://freebornjohn.blogspot.com/2008/05/chinese-arms-reach-zimbabwe.html" target="_blank">registered in the UK</a>, killed <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gnKz6JKf1o0Bic6UrduEAAlxyQ1wD9C8GQP81" target="_blank">3 American CIA agents</a> and injured 4 other personal who are reported to be from United States, Indonesia, Belgium and Zimbabwe.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Most interesting to note in these reports on the victims of this plane shootdown is that the Indonesian man currently being treated for his injuries has ‘<em>confessed</em>’ to Chinese secret police forces that he is a technician employed by the United States Navy at their mysterious Naval Medical Research Unit No. 2 (<a href="http://www.geis.fhp.osd.mil/GEIS/Training/namru-2asp.asp" target="_blank">NAMRU-2</a>) located in Indonesia that Indonesian Defense Minister Juwono Sudarsono had previously called for the closing of <em><a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2008/jul/05/world/fg-virus5" target="_blank">“because its operations were too secretive and were incompatible with Indonesia’s security interests.”</a></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Even more interesting to note about this US Navy secret bio-weapons base in Indonesia (the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_Indonesia" target="_blank">World’s largest Muslim Nation</a>) was its establishment in cooperation with the <a href="http://www.eugenics-watch.com/roots/chap12.html" target="_blank">Rockefeller Institute</a>, especially with it being the main center for the Americans Viral Diseases Program (<a href="http://www.geis.fhp.osd.mil/GEIS/Training/namru-2asp.asp">VDP</a>) they describe as the research of <em><a href="http://www.geis.fhp.osd.mil/GEIS/Training/namru-2asp.asp" target="_blank">“epidemiologic and laboratory research on viral hemorrhagic fevers, influenza, encephalitis, and rickettsioses”</a> </em>and the head of this institute, David Rockefeller, long <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owaCmHWwCd8" target="_blank">calling for a massive reduction in our World’s population</a>&#8230;</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recall the baffling news events from November 2009?</p>
<ul>
<li>Is Doomsday Coming? Perhaps, but Not in 2012 [1]</li>
<li>Survey: Nearly half of adults don&#8217;t plan to get H1N1 vaccine</li>
<li>Fort Hood attack likely Islamist terrorism, Cornyn and Lieberman say Al-Qaeda still biggest threat to British security, says Gordon Brown</li>
<li>Al-Qaeda terrorists being trained in Pak: British PM</li>
<li>Governments are now lifting the restrictions and allowing their citizens to buy gold.</li>
<li>Backwardation in Gold &amp; Silver &#8211; Tuesday 17th November 2009, Silver and mining stocks urge caution, but backwardation says gold&#8217;s run could continue&#8230;Gold Traders currently have their eye on two non-confirmations that so far have refused to &#8220;answer&#8221; gold&#8217;s push to new all time nominal highs, writes Gene Arensberg in his Got Gold report from Houston for the Gold Newsletter.</li>
</ul>
<p>The following will help you understand what’s really going on:</p>
<p>Backwardation is The Powers That Be (TPTB) downward manipulating the precious metals and at the same time keeping investors from being wealthy when everyone else is out of work, out of hope and living in tent cities: This is a <em>Neutral</em> Sign. [2]</p>
<p>When TPTP can no longer keep the precious metals from taking off and the dollar from landing at zero, look out, Mad Max and the breakdown of society is around the corner.</p>
<p>As of November 2009, Google Trends confirms the nuclear war hysteria had just about fallen off the radar screen.</p>
<p>For example, Pakalert &#8220;Escalation Scenarios: The Third World War and Its Aftermath&#8221; and Dr. Strangelove articles were everywhere until the beginning of October…when they faded into the background and the swine flu returned with a vengeance:</p>
<blockquote><p>“President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency, giving his health chief the power to let hospitals move emergency rooms offsite to speed treatment and protect non-infected patients.” Washington (October 25, 2009)</p></blockquote>
<p>Swine flu instead of a nuclear war?</p>
<p>If TPTB have abandoned a nuclear strategy and returned to the FLU this is an Ominous and <em>Not A Particularly Good Sign</em>.</p>
<p>A World War III that involves most or all nuclear powers, was a <strong>BLUFF. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Environmental Damage And Pollution Are The Goal And Not The Unintended Consequence Of Our Consumer Society</strong></p>
<p>TPTB, armed with the lost knowledge from the ancient world, Atlantis are in a metaphysical struggle to use humans to weaken the earth with environmental damage and pollution. [3]</p>
<p>Sometime between October of 2008 and October 2009, TPTB determined they had LOST the struggle with Mother-Earth and were forced to BLUFF with the <em>threat </em>of a nuclear event. TPTB don’t want World War III because it would make planet uninhabitable.</p>
<p>The Book of Revelation in the Bible describes what happens when TPTB defeat the Earth and there is no nuclear war at Armageddon in the valley of Megiddo:</p>
<blockquote><p>This great slaughter of the Antichrist and his armies will take place in and around the valley of Megiddo near Haifa in Israel. It will mark the end of man&#8217;s cruel rule on earth (the cruel rule responsible for the American Dream, a nightmare for the planet), as Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and His Heavenly forces (TPTB) forcibly take over the World to rule and reign and run it the way it should have been run if man had not disobeyed God (lived in disharmony with the earth) and gone his own selfish way!</p></blockquote>
<p>Should their plan succeed, <em>TPTB believe </em>they will attain immortality in a period known as the New World Order (Millennium), a thousand years of peace and plenty and paradise on Earth for The House of Rothschild, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (Global elite, TPTB).</p>
<p>The Anti-Islamic rhetoric, headlines about Al-Qaeda and terrorism “alerts” confirm Albert Pike&#8217;s vision: The Third World War is a depopulation event, not a nuclear holocaust when someone blows up the Dome of the Rock.</p>
<p>Albert Pike received a vision, which he described in a letter he wrote to Mazzini, allegedly dated August 15, 1871. The letter graphically outlined plans for three world wars that were seen as necessary to bring about the One World Order: [4]</p>
<p>Although there is controversy regarding the actual date the letter was written, it could not have been written after World War II and therefore the contents are prophetic:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the &#8220;agentur&#8221; of the &#8220;Illuminati&#8221; between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm … Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Armageddon And The Flu Could Eliminate One-Third Of The Masses </strong></p>
<p>Let’s say one of those radical Christian or Jewish groups plotting to blow up the Dome of the Rock, that magnificent golden domed mosque built on the site of Solomon’s Temple, is successful. Islam’s third holiest shrine stands directly over the most holy Jewish place and is preventing the Messiah from returning to Earth.</p>
<p>According to biblical prophecy, the temple must be rebuilt and sacrifice reinstated before Jesus can come back to earth; the first time for the Jews, the second time for the Christians. No temple = no Messiah.</p>
<p>What would happen if the Dome were to be demolished?</p>
<p>Well, for the first time in history, thanks to Saddam Hussein who drained 60 percent of the wetlands, 200 million people could cross the Euphrates for a holy war in Jerusalem, also known as Armageddon. [5]</p>
<p>Revelation 9:16 describes a hand-to-hand combat <em>not a nuclear event</em> because a Nuclear World War III would make too much of the planet uninhabitable for the One World governors and the 500 million useless eaters they need for slaves when they take over the world. [6]</p>
<p><strong>Do Not Take a Swine Flu Vaccine, It Could Kill You! </strong>[7]<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Remember the last Bird (now Swine) Flu hoax, where the public stampeded to get their worthless dose of Tamiflu and were convinced it was a scare tactic to make Rumsfeld millions?</p>
<p>Well, at the first sign of an epidemic, even without the forced immunization clause in the Patriot Act, the fools will still rush down to get their shot.</p>
<p>Immunization will be based on genome sequencing–a biotechnology that allows doctors to tailor medical treatments to an individual’s genetic profile:</p>
<p>“Here for your shot?”</p>
<p>“Worried about the Bird Flu? Oh of course sit here, roll up your sleeve. Oops, sorry you died.”</p>
<p>“Well I guess it was too late for you; next time, get here sooner!”</p>
<p>Either of these events would get us started on a slow, but orderly road to a population of slaves.</p>
<p>Note: The game is not over, we need figure out what we did before that worked and resume that behavior to help the Earth overcome TPTB!</p>
<p>And yes, it&#8217;s related (according to me) to me “The Most Important Issue in the History of the Universe.” [8]</p>
<p>I know not what course others may take, but as for me if it’s a choice between Nuclear Strategy, Mad Max and the Swine Flu Shot give me <em>Death</em>.</p>

<p>[3] The Powers That Be, the Illuminati (successors to the Knights Templar) possess the lost knowledge of the ancient world Atlantis and could see a future where consumerism would weaken Mother-Earth (Gaea). The origins of the secret societies go back to Solomon’s Temple, the Great Pyramid and Atlantis, have been associated with the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail, a secret fleet that sailed the oceans, and an awe-inspiring self-confidence and known today as the preservers of knowledge and sacred objects. <em>The Amazing Knights Templar </em>By David Hatcher Childress <a href="http://www.newdawnmagazine.info/Article/The_Amazing_Knights_Templar.html">http://www.newdawnmagazine.info/Article/The_Amazing_Knights_Templar.html</a> <em>Freemasons, Priory of Sion, Illuminati, Templars and Other Groups Explained </em>by Jotter Scalems in Organizations, May 21, 2008</p>
<p><strong>Atlantis</strong> Between 3113 BC and 1198 BC, there were the pass-by and eventual impact of the cometary object (called Proto-Encke) which destroyed the legendary island of Atlantis, located approximately 250 miles west of the Straits of Gibraltar. <em>The Destruction of Atlantis, and Survivors of Atlantis</em>, Frank Joseph</p>
<p>In his dialogues, Critias and Timaeus, Plato states that Atlantis sank beneath the waters following a great cataclysm 9000 years before his time. Until recently, the notion of a sunken island in the Atlantic was considered preposterous however recent geological, oceanographic, climatological and biological studies have conclusively shown that numerous islands did indeed exist in the Atlantic and other parts of the world in Paleolithic and Neolithic times. <em>Sacred Geography in Ancient Europe</em>, Martin Gray 2006, http://www.knowth.com/sacred-geography-1.htm</p>
<p>According to the Egyptian priests that Plato&#8217;s informant had spoken with, Atlantis had a prosperous and sophisticated civilization before its demise. Advanced in science, it was also in possession of knowledge concerning both the geography and geomancy of the entire earth.</p>
<p>[4] Cmdr. William Guy Carr: Quoted in Satan: Prince of This World, Albert Pike received a vision, which he described in a letter that he wrote to Mazzini, dated August 15, 1871. <a href="http://www.threeworldwars.com/albert-pike2.htm">http://www.threeworldwars.com/albert-pike2.htm</a></p>
<p>&#8220;Readers who argue that the terms Nazism and Zionism were not known in 1871 should remember that the Illuminati invented both these movements. In addition, Communism as an ideology, and as a coined phrase, originates in France during the Revolution. In 1785, Restif coined the phrase four years before revolution broke out. Restif and Babeuf, in turn, were influenced by Rousseau &#8211; as was the most famous conspirator of them all, Adam Weishaupt.&#8221;</p>
<p>[5] In 1994, 60 percent of the wetlands were destroyed by Saddam Hussein&#8217;s regime. They were drained to permit military access and greater political control of the native Marsh Arabs. The number 200 million is mentioned in Revelation 9:16. This number is expressed in the Greek as &#8216;two myriads of myriads&#8217; or in numeric form, &#8216;two 10,000 of 10,000&#8242;.  The 200 million is a number applied to the number of horsemen which cross the Euphrates.</p>
<p>[6] The Powers That Be believe Revelation 20:4-7 applies to them (if they are successful) and not the huddled masses.</p>
<p>…and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.</p>
<p>[7] <em>Do Note Take a Swine Flu Vaccine!,</em> Patricia A. Doyle, The Market Oracle April 27, 2009.</p>
<p>“Several world-acclaimed Microbiologists researchers specializing in DNA (Genome) sequencing have been found dead or have gone missing.” <em>The Very Mysterious Deaths Of Five Microbiologists</em>, Ian Gurney, December 20, 2001</p>
<p>[8] When I am asked to pick the &#8220;Most Question Issue in the History of the Universe&#8221; for those of us who are out in the world trying to wake up the huddled masses, I answer: <em>What caused the Twin Towers to collapse</em></p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Because if you don&#8217;t know why the twin towers collapsed, how can you be sure you are waking up the masses from the right dream. <em>The Most Important Issue in the History of the Universe<strong>, </strong></em>Robert Singer</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The mystery and disinformation surrounding H1N1 and the Ukraine nightmare are put  in focus. Something about this story just doesn't add up and there have been inexplicable developments right from day one.

It's got so bad that no-one may now trust government sources or even the WHO.

Some have speculated that mass genocide is the ultimate aim. Nothing in this story contradicts that possibility. There have been accusations that Baxter has released deliberately virulent organisms, designed to reduce the Earth's population. Nothing said or done by Baxter gives any reassurance that this could not be true!

The specter of a scientist who criticized Baxter being gassed, tazed and dragged from his vehicle on the streets of Los Angeles is hard to accept, in any terms. The US is under marshal law in all but name.

<blockquote><p>While America is still in the grips of swine flu mania, let me use this opportunity to clear up a few things about my beliefs concerning the flu shot, vaccines, and health in general. I do this because there is obviously a lot of curiosity about this subject of vaccines — it comes up in every interview I do these days, and I&#8217;ve been finding that people, including doctors, are privately expressing a skepticism that is still not very prevalent in public. I feel like I&#8217;ve become a confessor for people who want someone to be raising questions about vaccines.</p>
<p>But I don&#8217;t want the job. I agree with my critics who say there are far more qualified people than me — its just that mainstream media rarely interviews doctors and scientists who present an alternative point of view. There is a movement to stop people from asking any questions about vaccines — they&#8217;re a miracle, that&#8217;s it, debate over. I don&#8217;t think its that simple, and neither do millions of other people. The British Medical Journal from August 25 says half the doctors and medical workers in the U.K. are not taking the flu shot — are they all crazy too? Sixty-five percent of French people don&#8217;t want it. Maybe its not as simple as the medical establishment wants to paint it.</p>
<p>Vaccination is a nuanced subject, and I&#8217;ve never said all vaccines in all situations are bad. The point I am representing is: Is getting frequent vaccinations for any and all viruses consequence-free? I feel its unnecessary and counterproductive to try and silence people with condescension. Michael Shermer wrote me an open letter and felt I needed to be told that &#8220;vaccinations work by tricking the body&#8217;s immune system into thinking that it has already had the disease for which the vaccination was given.&#8221; Thanks, Doc, I thought there might be a little man inside the needle. Yes, I read Microbe Hunters when I was eight, I have a basic idea how vaccines work.</p></blockquote>

<p>We recently ran a <a href="http://www.disinfo.com/2009/11/spanish-doctor-reveals-important-information-about-swine-flu/">story</a> about Teresa Forcades, the doctor and nun at the monastery of Sant-Benet, in Monserra-Barcelona, Spain, with her clear and informative video about the origins of H1N1 flu. The story and video were very popular and many sites linked to it, including <a href="http://spiritdaily.com/vaccinationmore.htm">Spirit Daily</a>, a religious site. But Spirit Daily is very much against abortion, and decided that the Sister&#8217;s pro-choice comments made her persona non grata on their site.

<p>We recently ran a <a href="http://www.disinfo.com/2009/11/spanish-doctor-reveals-important-information-about-swine-flu/">story</a> about Teresa Forcades, the doctor and nun at the monastery of Sant-Benet, in Monserra-Barcelona, Spain, with her clear and informative video about the origins of H1N1 flu. The story and video were very popular and many sites linked to it, including <a href="http://spiritdaily.com/vaccinationmore.htm">Spirit Daily</a>, a religious site. But Spirit Daily is very much against abortion, and decided that the Sister&#8217;s pro-choice comments made her persona non grata on their site. Now they&#8217;re <a href="http://spiritdaily.com/vaccinationmore.htm">rethinking</a> that dogmatic decision:</p>
<blockquote><p>We removed a video she made &#8212; circulated on YouTube &#8212; when we learned that despite the holy monastic setting of Montserrat (one of the world&#8217;s oldest sites of Marian devotion), and despite her scientific credentials, as well as her calm manner of presentation, Sister Forcades had spoken publicly in favor of a woman&#8217;s &#8220;right&#8221; to terminate a pregnancy. That had occurred   during Spain&#8217;s recent national debate on abortion and drew   a rebuke from   Cardinal Franc Rodé, prefect for the Vatican&#8217;s Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, who, we learned, had sent a letter to her abbess demanding that Sister Forcades conform to Church doctrine.</p>
<p>In our view, the fact that Sister Forcades held a pro-choice position compromised the trust we could place in her judgment of other matters &#8212; including what she had to say about swine flu. She is author of <em>The Crimes of the Great Pharmaceutical Companies</em>, a book that denounces the political and economic power acquired by the drug corporations. Thus, when it comes to &#8220;Big Pharma&#8221; (as the pharmaceutical giants are known), she is not entirely objective.</p>
<p>But to many, what the nun-physician had to say was galvanizing &#8212; leading to a flurry of e-mails requesting and even demanding for us to repost the video. For in a low-key, methodical, and scientific manner, she mirrored what others in the &#8220;alternative media&#8221; have been asserting, some with legitimate concerns, some with questionable facts, which we will now endeavor to explore: that something unusual is afoot in recent epidemics and vaccinations.</p>
<p>Please bear with us. This is a lengthy article. You may want to print it. Bear also with the technicalities.</p>
<p>The swine-flu &#8220;pandemic,&#8221; charges the nun, is exaggerated and might lead to vaccination with materials that are potentially more dangerous than the flu itself. Included in her concerns is an additive or &#8220;adjuvant&#8221; called squalene, which she says was also an additive in the vaccine suspected of causing illness among soldiers in the first Gulf War. There are also trace amounts of formaldehyde or a compound called thimerosal (which contains mercury). Some believe such compounds have led to allergies and even autism in children given other kinds of vaccines. Thus far, pointed out Sister Forcades, swine flu has a lower mortality than regular seasonal flu, and the questions she raised: why, if it has a low mortality rate, has it been declared such an &#8220;emergency&#8221;? Why has there been the rush to protect the public with an untested vaccine?  &#8230;</p>

<p>But critics said Wall Street firms should not have access to the vaccine before less wealthy Americans. &#8220;Vaccines should go to people who need them most, not people who happen to work on Wall Street,&#8221; Democratic Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut said Thursday.</p>
<p>&#8220;Wall Street banks have already taken so much from us. They&#8217;ve taken trillions of our tax dollars. They&#8217;ve taken away people&#8217;s homes who are struggling to pay the bills,&#8221; union official John VanDeventer wrote on the Web site of the 2 million-member Service Employees International Union. &#8220;But they should not be allowed to take away our health and well-being.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the director of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sent a letter Thursday to state and local health departments asking them to review their distribution plans and make sure the vaccine is getting to high-risk groups.</p></blockquote>

<p>The situation with the epidemic of influenza is a complex and unpredictable because of the propensity of influenza A/H1N1 virus to mutation, said First Deputy Minister of Health Mr. Lazoryshynets on Monday, November 2.</p>
<p>&#8220;The situation is complicated and unpredictable. We found a strain of this virus in our laboratory &#8230; This virus is dangerous because it can mutate, and we can get a very different kind of virus, which was in Latin America or in Mexico, now it is European &#8220;, &#8211; said Lazoryshynets at a press conference, the &#8220;Correspondent&#8221; magazine informs.</p>
<p>At a press conference Lazoryshynets also said that there are 22  officially confirmed cases of influenza A/H1N1 in Ukraine.</p>
<p>First Vice Prime Minister Oleksandr Turchinov previously stated that as of Monday morning, November 2, there are 64 registered deaths in Ukraine from flu and acute respiratory viral infections&#8230;</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>I spent most of this past spring and summer rolling my eyes every time I heard a news story about the <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/H1N1FLU/">swine flu</a>. Almost every day local reporters got hysterical about 5 or 10 or 20 confirmed cases. Entire schools closed in response to a handful of kids with fevers, and as if there were no war in Afghanistan, no economic crisis, and no other epidemics claiming ten times as many lives, newscasters talked about H1N1 (the proper name for swine flu) for hours.</p>
<p>I have a degree in public health and my work focuses on preventing rape and other acts of violence and supporting survivors in healing from abuse. When I see all the attention swine flu is getting, I’m jealous. Other than intermittent news stories about sex offenders on the loose or why women who accuse professional athletes of rape are lying, sexual violence rarely gets any widespread coverage. Certainly no <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/10/24/h1n1.obama/index.html">state of emergency declared by the President of the United States</a>.</p>
<p>Now, I don’t want to diminish the grief of those who have lost loved ones to H1N1. I don’t even want to question the scientific validity of the Center for Disease Control’s decision to declare it a pandemic. But the fact remains that the impact of H1N1 is far less than that of other public health crises that receive a fraction of the attention and resources. The CDC reported just over 43,000 cases of H1N1 between April and July of this year and estimates that it will <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/surveillanceqa.htm">affect a million people</a>, or 0.3% of the total population of the United States. Compare this to the 2.5% of women and 0.9% of men who <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/SV-DataSheet-a.pdf">reported being raped or sexually assaulted in the past year</a>. The most recent statistics about rape available from the CDC are from last year. Swine flu? Last week.</p>
<p>What would our media, our public discourse, and our institutional responses look like if people cared as much about rape as they do about H1N1?</p></blockquote>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>From the <a href="http://theflucase.com/index.php?option=com_content&#38;view=article&#38;id=1516%3Aswitzerland-forbids-qswine-fluq-vaccine-for-pregnant-women-young-and-old&#38;catid=41%3Ahighlighted-news&#38;Itemid=105&#38;lang=en">Flu Case</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Swissmedic, the authority in Switzerland that gives permission for the use of drugs, today announced that the &#8220;swine flu&#8221; vaccine Pandemrix will not be allowed to be injected into pregnant women, children or young adults (below 18 years of age) or elderly (above 60 years of age). The very same vaccine is now injected through an unprecedented mass vaccination campaign into hundreds of thousands if not millions of people in Sweden.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From the <a href="http://theflucase.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=1516%3Aswitzerland-forbids-qswine-fluq-vaccine-for-pregnant-women-young-and-old&amp;catid=41%3Ahighlighted-news&amp;Itemid=105&amp;lang=en">Flu Case</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Swissmedic, the authority in Switzerland that gives permission for the use of drugs, today announced that the &#8220;swine flu&#8221; vaccine Pandemrix will not be allowed to be injected into pregnant women, children or young adults (below 18 years of age) or elderly (above 60 years of age). The very same vaccine is now injected through an unprecedented mass vaccination campaign into hundreds of thousands if not millions of people in Sweden. No restrictions are made in Sweden and the authorities there express surprise about the Swiss decision. &#8220;There is no reason to make such a decision here in Sweden&#8221;, says Jan liliemark, a professor working for the national Medical Products Agency. The many deaths so far in Sweden from this vaccine are &#8220;still under investigation&#8221;.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the people of Switzerland will still be injected with the deadly adjuvant squalene and the mercury thiomersal through another &#8220;swine flu&#8221; vaccine, namely the poisonous Focetria.</p>
<p>Focetria is being approved because the EMEA have approved it for the EU. It will be given to children from the age of six months and adults.</p>
<p>Celtura has been tested and according to earlier reports, it is contaminated with dog viruses and bacteria. It is still waiting to receive permission to be injected in the Swiss population.</p></blockquote>

Briefly, I will tell you how I came across this  information, and some other startling revelations I stumbled onto afterwards. I  was talking with a friend earlier about the patents issued for the swine flu  viruses, and why I think the information on patents is the cornerstone for  understanding why so many are deeply suspicious of the events surrounding this  current &#8220;pandemic&#8221;. He asked me what I knew about the patents and what  information I could share, and I quickly did a search and found the usual info  that is circulating regarding Baxter&#8217;s and Novartis&#8217; patents. Somehow, in a  roundabout way I then came upon a site entitle &#8220;patentstorm&#8221;, did a search for  swine flu, and came across the following: www.patentstorm.us&#8230; I&#8217;ve copied and  pasted most of the rest of this document to the end of this email. Obviously, I  was pretty stunned by what I was reading, and the timing of the application and  publication. I&#8217;m not going to go into everything I&#8217;ve found because it&#8217;s  time-consuming, and because I feel that others might have much more experienced  researchers, resources, and contacts than I do. I will briefly share one thing  I&#8217;ve turned up in a very brief period of time. Luckily, this document contains  the names of the researchers who&#8217;ve filed it, which I will include here. I  decided to look some of them up to see if I could find anything out about their  careers online. Here is that information: Inventors * Palese, Peter *  Garcia-Sastre, Adolfo * Webby, Richard J. * Richt, Juergen A. * Webster, Robert  G. * Lager, Kelly M. Assignees * THE UNITED STATED OF AMERICA AS REPRESENTED BY  THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE * St. Jude Children&#8217;s Research Hospital * MOUNT  SINAI SCHOOL OF MEDICINE OF NEW YORK UNIVERSITY Hopefully your team can take  over from here if you deem any of this to be pertinent information. I will point  out that I looked up Richard J. Webby, and found that he has worked for the WHO  and St Jude. Here is a brief bio stating his responsibilities and mention that  he has been travelling to Switzerland (home of Novartis) &#8221; twice a year to  participate in vaccine strain selection meetings&#8221;. The bio can be found here,  and it dates to Feb 2008. Of particular interest are the last two paragraphs:  www.stjude.org&#8230; Now the real reason I&#8217;ve found Webby interesting is his name  also brought me to a previous article, which I believe Alex Jhas mentioned on  the show. I will also post the link to that article and the brief excerpt THAT  JUMPED OFF THE PAGE AT ME. The reason is the wording that was used &#8212; &#8220;they  created a PANDEMIC&#8221; etc. scitizen.com&#8230; suring-/ 11 Sep, 2006 Researchers from  the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, USA, have  combined bird and human flu viruses in order to create a pandemic strain. They  reported recently that the hybrid viruses are, at least for ferrets, relatively  benign [1]. Richard Webby, virologist at the St. Jude Children&#8217;s Research  Hospital, comments on these results for Scitizen. Why is it interesting to  combine genes from human flu virus and the H5N1 bird flu strain? What scenario  is being tested? One of the reasons why we don’t have a lot of human pandemics  with these avian strains is that they don’t generally grow very well in humans  or transmit between them. One way that we know that these avian viruses can  adapt to humans is by getting together with a human virus and mixing gene  segments. If we look back at the last 2 human pandemics, the 1967 Asian Flu and  the 1968 Hong Kong Flu, &#8230;[read the rest at <a href="http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=515192&amp;page=1#pid7446432">AboveTopSecret.com</a>]</p></blockquote>

In the Ternopil region alone in western Ukraine, 30 people have died of unexplained causes in the last days, health ministry spokeswoman Lyudmila Gordon told reporters.</p>
<p>Tymoshenko also threatened to revoke the licenses of pharmacies that failed to stock the appropriate level of anti-flu medicine and masks. &#8220;We can say today that Ukraine has entered into the zone of the swine flu epidemic,&#8221; Health Minister Vassyl Kniazevich said.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Michael Cosgrove writes in <a href="http://www.fleshandstone.net/healthandsciencenews/1662.html">fleshandstone.net</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>In what is being seen as the first of many such actions to come, nine individuals have filed formal charges claiming that the H1N1 campaign is a deliberate attempt to poison the French population.</p>
<p>These charges, which were filed yesterday, could not come at a more inopportune moment for the government and health specialists. The vaccination campaign got underway last Tuesday in a climate of national skepticism as to the vaccine’s safety and efficiency, and this news will surely boost the morale of the increasing number of anti-vaccine lobbyists who are beginning to organize their resistance to any attempt to vaccinate the population against H1N1.</p>
<p>Nine inhabitants of the Isére region of France are cited as joint plaintiffs in the case, including a health sector worker, a teacher and a radio talk show host. They met each other at various public meetings held to denounce the vaccine’s alleged health risks.</p>
<p>The charges take the form of a ‘plainte contre X’ which means that the perpetrator of an alleged crime or felony is not known, or is not named, in the charge sheet. This is a commonly used manner of filing complaints in France, particularly where the charges relate to supposed government implication in alleged breaches of the law. In cases where those trials proceed after prior examination of the facts, the specific persons or organizations concerned are designated and charged as the trial proceeds.</p>
<p>Jean-Pierre Joseph, the plaintiffs’ lawyer, describes the vaccination campaign as “A veritable attempt to poison.” He confirmed that the charges were filed at the High Court in Grenoble before the court’s senior examining magistrate. He said other court cases involving other plaintiffs would begin soon</p>
<p>The various charges filed included one of “Attempting to administer substances…of a nature which could result in death.”</p>
<p>“The aim is to put a stop to what we consider to be an act of poisoning,” according to Joseph. “The interest of this action is that people in France now have a means by which to express their concern as citizens by saying publicly “We are aware that the vaccination campaign is a swindle.”</p>
<p>Similar court actions are planned in other areas of the Isére, as well as in Paris, Pau and Nantes, and several hundred vaccine opponents are beginning to organize themselves on the internet with a view to filing class action charges.</p>
<p>The government and health authorities are currently battling to persuade people to get vaccinated against increasingly difficult odds. Opposition to the campaign has been increasing steadily, and various polls taken over the last few days put the figure for those who do not intend to get vaccinated as high as 70 percent.</p>
<p>Their task is being made even more arduous by the fact that while authorities believe on the one hand that vaccination is essential despite negative public reaction, the French have traditionally proved to be very quick to condemn and file charges in cases where not enough was said to be done to prevent other medical mishaps such as the Mad Cow outbreak and an AIDS contamination case, in which several people died and many more became HIV positive after receiving AIDS-contaminated blood transfusions in hospitals.</p>
<p>That signifies that the authorities have very little room to maneuver and are more or less obliged to continue the campaign in order to avoid similar charges should they decide or be forced to abandon the campaign and high numbers of people die as a result of not being vaccinated.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Julie Steenhuysen &#8211; Analysis</p>
<p>CHICAGO (Reuters) &#8211; Healthcare companies are reaping the benefits of a global swine flu pandemic, brightening what might otherwise have been a dismal third quarter and bringing new focus on the market for vaccines.</p>
<p>Large European pharmaceutical companies are reporting windfall sales from flu drugs and H1N1 vaccines.</p>
<p>Small biotechs are winning fresh attention from investors and governments looking for quick, less expensive ways of making flu vaccines to protect their populations. And diagnostic companies have been growing revenues as doctors order more flu tests.</p>

And I know your explanation isn&#8217;t going to make any sense &#8230; My eye&#8217;s now on you, Porky Pig, for the current craze. Nora Schultz writes in <a href="http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn18002-first-evidence-that-bird-flu-is-spread-sexually.html">New Scientist</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Bird flu may be a sexually transmitted infection — at least in ducks. That&#8217;s the suggestion of an analysis of flu prevalence and mating behaviour that also proposes an easy way to spot duck populations most at risk of harbouring avian flu.</p>
<p>Surprisingly, the more rampant the sex a particular duck species indulges in, the lower the chance of spreading the virus. It&#8217;s all to do with penis size and the complexity of the females&#8217; vagina.</p>
<p>Lethal strains of avian flu virus can evolve from harmless versions and then jump to other species, so it is important to also monitor less dangerous strains in wild birds. Ducks are the main wild hosts of bird flu, but surveillance is difficult without easy markers&#8230;</p></blockquote>]]></description>

<p>Now Gergely Hegyi at Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary, and colleagues think they may have found just such a marker: the &#8220;covert&#8221; wing patches that ducks display during mating. This finding builds on the previous work by the team, in which they found that species with large penises tend to have smaller wing patches, which are also more likely to be a single colour.</p></blockquote>
