EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen Must Resign Says Romanian MEP As EU Covid Vaccine Scam Is Revealed

by Arthur Foxake, 21 October 2022

The revelation that the EU's most senior official was involved in a dodgy deal with Big Pharma vaccine makers to scam the European public out of billions of Euros by agreeing contracts to purchase vast quantities of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines,” prompted Romanian MEP Cristian Terhes to demand thatEuropean Commission President Ursula von der Leyen “must resign” immediately,

Terhes delivered an impassioned speech to the European Parliament this week demanding that von der Leyen step down right away from her post after the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO) confirmed that an investigation has been opened into the European Union’s (EU) overordering on a massive scale of the so called Fauci Flu vaccines or Clotshots.

Terhes, a member of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) Group, said that “since her actions are [being] criminally investigated by EU prosecutors,” von der Leyen has absolutely no business remaining in her position. He reminded his audience of von der Leyen's trying to force all EU residents to get injected with the jabs she conspired to purchase by imposing vaccine mandates?

Though von der Leyen is not named in the EPPO indictment, it is widely believed that she and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla communicated at the onset of Operation Warp Speed about purchasing billions of Chinese Virus injections for billions of US dollars.

Several other EU watchdog groups have previously expressed concern about covert communications between von der Leyen and Bourla, who allegedly texted each other about the scheme. Those text messages have since disappeared and many want to know: where did they go?

“She signed contracts to purchase 4.6 billion COVID vaccine doses worth €71, contracts that are still not fully released to the public and MEPs.”

Early in the hoax pandemic contracts were signed by von der Leyen and Bourla for quantities of clotshots far in excess of the EU population, behaviour which points to serious criminality, hence the launching of a full investigation by the EPPO.

The number of jabs von der Leyen purchased from Bourla using EU taxpayers money works out at out  10 doses of injection for every EU citizen. And this, according to Terhes, was done “based on contracts that were never released to the public.”

“This is how the contracts that she signed with pharmaceutical companies were released to the public,” Terhes stated during his speech before Parliament while holding up two heavily redacted pages of a procurement contract between the Commission and the vaccine manufacturer.

“How is this possible in a European Union that is called to be transparent with the way it is using people’s money?”

According to Emily O’Reilly, the European Ombudsman, the aforementioned procurement agreement between von der Leyen and Bourla points to the former as being guilty of “maladministration,” specifically because it was done via text messages that were improperly stored and thus unavailable for public scrutiny.

 The texts were not covered by EU law regarding the requirement to store all documents relating to official EU business in accordance with EU security policy, meaning von der Leyen committed a serious crime, it would appear.

“And she has not disappeared yet? What’s the hold up?” asked one journalist covering European Parliament proceedings.

“How have our lives become a hellish nightmare seemingly overnight?” asked another.

Latest Act In The Shakespearean Comedy 'The Merry Whores Of Westminster'

So Liz Truss has resigned as Prime Minister after only 44 days in office, thus reducing British politics, once noted for its stability and the level headed and respectful was in which political business was conducted to the commedia dell'arte that passes for democratic government in Italy.

It was an ignominious exit even for somebody who, though she had promised little, we expected less but in the end, to paraphrase Elton John: 'she had the grace to throw herself while those around her fall.'


Liz Truss delivers her resignation speech outside Downing Street as her husband looks on
(Source: Screenshot from BBC News)(

If we are honest, few people would claim they expected Truss to be a successful Prime Minister and many of us actually predicted she would only be in office for months rather than years. Was it sexism, anti - Conservative prejudice or,  pure snobbery that gave people such a negative impression of Truss, you might well ask. 

In fact it was none of these things. Liz Truss was the latest in a line of mediocre politicians, big on ambition, light on talent, experience, charisma, communications ability and interpersonal skills to worm their way into political prominence. Yet they do, quite simply they will say or do anything they believe will advance their interests, they will serve any master or often many masters simultaneously.

Consistency and principles, which ought to be essential to the delivery of government with the consent of the people, have become utterly irrelevant in politics these day - all that matters is power and the agenda they want to push forward in the interests of whichever  global corporation, financial institution or unelected cabal of billionaire psychopaths is offering the most money. Politicians have become Machiavellian creatures - supporters of 'the ends justifies the means' approach to pushing their agendas. It is undeniable that the vast majority of modern British politicians are dishonest by nature. Worse still, they cannot even tell when they are being dishonest and few actually care. 

I have now passed the point at which all trust in politics and government, including the state institutions such as the Health Service, Police, Education, the Judicial system have evaporated. Though never a Labour or Conservative or even a floating voter, I can no longer care about which bunch of crooks and liars wins the next general election because the charge of hypocrisy against both parties has lost all the power it once had which signals to me a complete breakdown in British politics as a whole.

There was a time in politics when principles and integrity were important because credibility mattered. When we stopped punishing the hypocrites in politics that was the unscrupulous and amoral benefitted and took over. Principles and consistency no longer matter when you are led by self-serving hypocrites who whore themselves around the World Economic Forum and the financial hubs of the west and east. All that remains in politics these days is tribalism and polarisation. Complex and nuanced debate has been reduced to false binaries - A is wrong because it is A, thus it is proved that B is right - at this rate it won't be long before we witness a level of politics similar to rival tribes of Chimpanzees throwing turds at each other in the House of Commons.

When we replace principles and consistency in politics then there is no longer any real credibility and what we are left with and what we are witnessing increasingly within western political leadership today which is authoritarianism.

 If we want to get back to talking about ideas in politics instead of personalities then we need to get back to principles and integrity once again, to preserve what little political credibility we have left in Britain we must get back to debating facts, elevate political dialogue based on evidence and reason, ,start fighting for ideas once again instead of personalities and crackpot ideologies  for this we need to get back to consistency and principles . If we could do that maybe then we will also see the emergence of political leadership once again.

General Armageddon Stokes The Fire In Ukraine

by Egbert Nohbakkon,19 October 2022


General Armageddon (Picture: frontnieuws netherlands

General Sergey Surovikin (above), nicknamed General Armageddon, recently appointed as overall commander of Russian air, land and sea forces serving on the Ukrainian front, whom the late Robert Fisk said was one of the scariest men he had ever met in his long and very colourful life takes to his new command a fearsome reputation for ruthlessness, earned most recently in Syria against the western - backed forces if ISIS. When one is faced with hordes of jacked up jihadists as in Syria or NATO funded Nazis as in Ukraine, one needs a commander like General Armageddon to save the day, as the songs of John Lennon and Bob Dylan just don’t cut it.

To read NATO’s accounts of Surovikin's exploits one would imagine he obliterates enemies for fun and not out of necessity. In that, NATO’s media jackals deliberately men like him with their enemies, NATO’s proxies in both Syria and Ukraine, whose war crimes are as well documented as they are ignored by NATO’s ever loyal mainstream media sock puppets and political mouthpieces.

However the arrival of Surovikin in the Ukraine conflict is bad news for the citizen's of Ukraine who only crave an end to hostilities and a return to peaceful ways of living.

We learned earlier today that the troops the Ukies are  now sending into the meat grinder in front of Kherson, are the "Territorial Defense" brigades, five units consist almost to a man of conscripts, dragged and dragooned off the streets and clubs (even beaches) of Ukrainian cities. They are given a quick change of clothes and if fortunate are handed a rifle and then are sent into Slaughterhouse V.

Low levels of morale are de rigeur. Only thing keeping them moving into the teeth of the mill are those "Nationalist" police battalions which "back them up" by shooting those who attempt to retreat. Most of those poor slobs could care less about killing Russians in order to keep them from liberating ethnic Russians from the U$$A and NATOstani controlled puppet regime in Kiev.

Those young (and some not so young which is an indication of how desperate the neo Nazi nutters in Kiev are becoming, are neither motivated, nor stupid. If these individuals can overcome their personal existential fear, the most intelligent thing they can do would be to surrender en masse to the Russian defenders of their homeland's people. Western mainstream media may celebrate Russia's heavy losses in men and equipment but hardly mention Ukraine's equally heavy losses while according to my sources in India, Singapore, Egypt and Israel, where news reporting is not tainted by the influence of Washington,) those pictures we are shown of destroyed and abandoned 'Russia' tanks and armoured vehicles are mostly Russian built, Soviet era equipment inherited by Ukraine's military after independence.

"General Armegeddon" let it slip a few days ago that Ukraine is in for the full treatment. Whatever that means, it is ominous. In a statement which was included in RT coverage, the Russian commander in chief explained Russia's current goal: Demolition of the entire Ukrainian state and (probably) reconstructing it on the basis of being comprised of those who might be described as Ukrainian dialect speaking peoples only.

One slight exception being an essential but totally logical deletion of Galicia from an entity which might be called NovoUkrainia.

 The reasoning behind this is that having long been under political control and domination from Poland for centuries and under the Austro-Hungarians for nearly 200 years, the Galician Slavic people had become thoroughly westernised in both political and religious attitudes. Rather than remaining as Orthodox Christians, the Galicians in the main became "Uniats", a national church, though closely aligned with Rome, maintained some of the Orthodox rituals in order to retain some level of viability.

Long settled by a mixture of Poles, Khazarian Jews and those adulterated Eastern Slavs; Galicia became filled with tensions after that land was seized by Poland from the Bolsheviks in the early Twenties. None of those groupings were capable of getting along with the others. The worst of the lot, followers of Ukrainian nationalist Stepan Bandera showed their hands during the German invasion when they happily massacred Jews, Polaks and anyone they felt to be inimical to their dogmatic beliefs. So it is these Neo-fascists, boasting Nazi symbology, who made nice with the Khazarian Mafiya, after funding and prodding by Uncle Sam and were pre-eminent in the Maidan coup and in numerous murders and massacres over the past eight years.

Without the kedge-anchor of those Galician Banderites, slung across their necks, a NovoUkrainia for Ukrainians only, might become a postwar reality.

Sweden Gets Populist-Conservative-Liberal Coalition Government: Moderate Leader Elected PM

 


Swedish Prime Minister (Source: AFP )Jonathan Nackstrand

 

Following the general election in September this year, the decades long domination of the centre left Social Democrats has been broken by a centre right coalition. Sweden now has a new conservative coalition Prime Minister, Ulf Kristersson, leader of the Moderate Party who was elected by the country’s parliament as PM after a coalition agreement between the centre-right parties was reached last week.

However Kristersson's Moderates are not the largest party in the coalition, that distinction goes to the right wing Sweden Democrats, the Eurosceptic, anti - immigration party that was kept out of the governing coalition following the last election by pressure from Brussels. This outside meddling in Swedish domestic affairs resulted in the country being governed by a minority government, a loose coalition of left, far left, extreme left and ecoloony parties. 

Kristersson became Sweden’s new Prime Minister on Monday by a vote of 176 to 173 with no abstentions and is expected to present his new government on Tuesday. The election of Kristersson comes despite his centre-right party placing third behind the populist Sweden Democrats in last month’s election. As the Sweden Democrats have been demonised by the establishment, the European Union and mainstream media as a far right party with neo - Nazi leanings it was felt that pushing the SD leader Per Jimmie Ã…kesson for Prime Minister might lead to confrontation with the EU.

“It feels big. I’m grateful. I am happy about the confidence I have received from the Riksdag but also visibly humbled by the tasks that lie ahead,” Kristersson said following his election.

The election of Prime Minister Kristersson comes after the coalition of the Moderates, the Sweden Democrats, the Christian Democrats, and the Liberals reached a governing agreement known as the Tidö agreement last week, broadcaster SVT reports.

 

The new government will set about implementing reforms in immigration law and the unquestioned admittance of 'asylum seekers, most of who are economic migrants with no chance of entering the country legally, and seek to withdraw residency permits and deport people involved in criminal organisations or terrorist linked groups. They will also tighten the rules around the granting of Swedish citizenship.

Another area to be addressed urgently relates to problems caused by immigration of unskilled, illiterate labourers who cannot learn Swedish, refuse to assimilate and claim they are not subject to Swedish law because their religious law is supreme. The government will also launch an investigation into whether new migrants to Sweden should automatically be granted social benefits.

On crime, the Kristersson government will look to double the sentences for crimes linked to criminal gangs and look into deporting gang criminals without Swedish citizenship even if they have not been convicted of crimes.

A ban on living in certain areas will also be proposed for those convicted of crimes relating to gang activity, honour crimes, domestic violence, sexual offences and extremism.

The new proposals come as Sweden, which over the past decade has witnessed an explosion in rape and sexual assault, 90% of which offences are perpetrated by immigrants against ethnic Swedes,  has also endured its worst-ever year for fatal gun violence in 2022 (with two m onths of the year still to run,) the previous fatal shooting record being broken in August. The majority of the cases are linked to criminal gang activity, with many of the gang criminals coming from migrant backgrounds.

Sweden’s National Police Chief Anders Thornberg admitted in January of this year that migration and integration failures have contributed to the issue of violent criminal gangs. In the past socialist governments have ordered law enforcement departments and the justice system to back off prosecuting immigrants in order to avoid creating racial tensions.

Nord Stream and Kerch Bridge Attacks A Tremendous Opportunity For USA's Economy

 

Following the recent attacks on the Nord Stream pipelines, which effectively halted the flow of natural gas which German industry, commerce, agriculture and society relies on, and the terrorist attack on the Kerch Bridge, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken gloated that the attacks were a “tremendous opportunity” to weaken Moscow.. And now it has emerged that the United States CIA and UK's MI5 strate security agencies at the very least knew of the plan in advance.

 And shortly after news of the Nord Stream sabotage broke on mainstream media, gas supply companies in the USA were offering to supply Europe with shipments of Liquid Natural Gas carried by supertanker to be sold to European nations at vastly inflated prices.

The Nord Stream pipelines are operated by company that is majority owned by Russia’s state gas giant Gazprom. Authorities in Norway and Denmark have blocked that company from inspecting the damage done to its own pipelines. That is to say, NATO member states have prevented the Switzerland-based company Nord Stream AG from conducting an investigation into the attacks on its property.

Meanwhile, top officials in Washington have been positively giddy. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken enthusiastically celebrated the attacks on Nord Stream a “tremendous opportunity” in the economic war against Russia.

As for the Russians, they just shugged and set about finding other customers to buy their gas. The CPC pipeline out of the Caspian has been monitored from orbit a very long time. The Volga river complex out of the northern Caspian region ditto. In total this flow is 4% of global supply, and much of it is past Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad) northward towards Moscow for consumption and export.

Volgograd is less than 100 miles from the eastern border of Donbas and is the chokepoint for nearly 3% of global supply. The Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) from Russia's Caspian gas fields to the Black Sea travels through Russia to a Russian Black Sea port.

Kashagan is the notorious oil field in that region and its failures have been monitored from orbit and led to its nickname from the participating companies -- CashIsGone. A very difficult production locale for oil, but those obstacles have been overcome and it is now finally flowing. The lesser known field is Karachaganak, it is mostly gas condensate and GAZPROM is the major player. This dictates realities of the recent economic meetings that warranted Putin's presence.

It will probably come as a shock to political leaders in Washington D C, London and Euopean capitals and financial centres but wo.rld trade is not confined to North America and Europe. Turkmenistan (how many people know where that is, I have to admit I could not descripe its exact position,) is bubbling with gas. Kazahkstan has significant oil. That region in total, with bordering countries, has abundant and largely unexploited hydrocarbon reserves. 

Perhaps most amusing, ironic and scanitly reported in mainstream media aspect of this fiasco of failed sanctions, Iran has been running tankers south to north across the Caspian carrying their sanctioned oil to blend with Russia's heading north for export via The Black Sea. Turkey and Syria to Europe and America. All those sanctions imposed by successive US administrations in their efforts to control the world never really had a hope of working.

As for vast Ukraine gas totals, the Holy Bible of oil and gas is published each June by BP. It is called The World Statistical Report and is downloadable in Excel form. It's a big ducument and profiles production of oil and gas country by country, as well as consumption.

BP assigns Ukraine about 1 Trillion cubic meters of reserves. Most of that is offshore south. In the world of gas and oil, one sees numbers with the T word or B word for trillions and billions.There's a lot of gas in the world which is why the green loons and ecowankers stopped campaining on the basis that hydrocarbons are running out and started instead to demonise Carbon Dioxide, a trace atmospheric gas that is absolutely essential to the continuation of carbon based lifeforms, (which covers absolutely every living thing,) on our planet

Russia is estimated to have 37 trillion, and their territory total provides estimates of "undiscovered reserves" far beyond that 37 number. Qatar's fields offshore estimate at 25. Iran at 32. Saying Ukraine is the 2nd largest in Europe is noting a big fish in a tiny pond. Norway is #1 at 1.4 Trillion. Countries with more? Australia, Nigeria, Egypt, Algeria, Iraq, UAE, US (a 12 T gas dwarf) and Canada.

Ukraine has 1/37th of GAZPROM's total, with more to be found. The theory that control of gas fields  prompted Russia's invasion of Ukraine does not make any sense at all.

However this publication has consistently taken the view that the current kerfuffle in Ukraine was engineered by the USA and NATO just as the previous trouble in 2013 / 14 and the ethnic cleansing campaign waged on Russian speakers in eastern Ukraine were. And as we reported last month and earlier this month when we look at the Nord Stream sabotage and the Kerch Bridge terrorist attack the evidence stacks up against the US Deep State with help from their FUKUS axis and NATO partners, they have the means, plenty of opportunity but what about motive?

The US fossil fuel industry has made a killing off of the proxy war in Ukraine. Western sanctions on Russia in response to its February 24, 2022 invasion of its neighbor have propelled the United States into becoming the world’s largest exporter of liquified natural gas (LNG). Much of that LNG has gone to Europe to make up for the drastic decline in Russian exports.

NATO member Norway has also greatly benefited. It was already the largest oil and gas producer in Europe, even before inaugurating the Baltic Pipe, just one day after Nord Stream was sabotaged. The fact that an attack on Nord Stream was being planned was known in advance. By whom? None other than the CIA. The notorious US spy agency warned Germany weeks before the explosions.

It is not just the North American energy industry that stands to heavily profit from the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines. Ukraine benefits as well. By using Nord Stream to send Germany natural gas through the Baltic Sea, Russia could cut out the intermediary of Ukraine, which was making billions of dollars in transit fees.

While Western governments have pinned the blame on Russia, without offering a shred of proof, it makes no strategic sense that Moscow would sabotage its own pipelines, after investing billions of dollars in the project. Russia has even floated the possibility of investing more money to repair the pipelines. This would be a very strange move after bombing your own energy infrastructure.

Yet the German government publicly rejected Russia’s offer to repair the pipelines. A spokesperson said Berlin would not accept Russian gas via Nord Stream 2, even if it is fixed, a position which smells suspiciously like the stink of self interests that emanated from the US / UK ordering their puppet Bellendskyyyyy to refuse talks with Russia on a peace deal brokered by Turkey's President Erdogan back in April 2022.

Ukraine Spends $5 Million To Shoot Down A $25,000 Drone

A Ukrainian MiG-29 (Tech. Sgt. Charles Vaughn/U.S. Air National Guard)

The Economics of Air Defense

A lot happened in the last week in the Ukraine War. In this post, we’ll look at one incident that may shed some light on the economics of the conflict. Following that, a note about avoiding head fakes in in war and markets by keeping your eye on the big picture.

After the Ukrainian attack on the Kerch Strait Bridge last weekend, Russia responded with massive missile and drone strikes on Ukrainian targets starting on Monday. The drones were primarily Iranian Shahed-136 Kamikazes (re-christened as Geran-2 by Russia).

Cost estimates I’ve seen for these drones vary from about $20,000 to $25,000 each. They’re literally powered by lawnmower engines (presumably, because Iran has limited access to engines due to U.S. sanctions), though in the video above, it looks like they get an initial rocket boost off their launchers.

Despite being loud and slow, they apparently have been quite effective, so the Ukrainian Air Force sent up a MiG-29 fighter to shoot one down.

A MiG-29 apparently costs something between $5 million and $12 million, incidentally.

In this case, the MiG successfully shot down the drone, but shrapnel from the explosion of the drone hit the MiG’s cockpit, forcing the pilot to eject. You can see wreckage of the MiG HERE.

So the Ukrainians sacrificed a $5 million+ plane to shoot down a $25,000 drone. If this sounds like it may be an unrepresentative example, consider that we’ve already given the Ukrainians aid equal to Russia’s entire military budget for 2021. ... CONTINUE READING >>>
