Senate Hearing Video Chris Pavlovski. Russia recenty banned Russian users from viewing Rumble. Here Chris mentions other countries, that have requested politically based censorship i.e. China, France, Brazil, Australia and New Zealand. China ... well communists are not exactly renowned for being bastions of individual freedom. France ... in a propaganda war with Russia. Brazil ... politics Australia ... ?? New Zealand ... someone published some efficacy results for the Pfizer Covid vaccine. I think everyone knows by now that mRNA vaccines used only reduced transmission rates. And as former Professor Kulldorff said, no scientist ever thought these vaccines could prevent the transmission of covid, because one would have to protect the mucosal membrane. Not only so, but given the requirement for continual booster vaccines, the effectiveness of the vaccine reducing the transmission rate was evidently of short duration.

Abridged video of Freddie Sayer's (CEO and executive editor of "Unherd"). "Unherd" appears to be founded based on the belief in public discussion, and listening to the unheard as a means to ensure a functional society. The original video:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dmzmJMb0fw which in turn is based on his detailed report https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILEMV0xKGh4

Public Health Management In hindsight, paying attention to providing protection for the elderly from covid, and letting younger people continue to go to work, would have been a reasonable public health decision (as discussed in the video, this option was taken in Sweden by Anders Tegnell). It would have: reduced the number of cancer patients who died due to delay in screening and treatment, reduced mental health and addiction harms due to social isolation, allowed people to retain employment and therefore maintain upkeep of loan repayments and so (at least in New Zealand) to retain possession of their homes. Even if the proposals from some scientists (and there were many scientists who agreed with this proposal ... https://gbdeclaration.org/) were a poor method for protecting public health, one still has to ask: - why were experienced medical professionals silenced in a time of uncertainty? - why advice which was desperately needed, was not even allowed to exist in the public square. The answer seems clear. Although the government rightly wanted to control the pandemic health strategy, most governments also used emergency powers to prevent and silence public criticism. This video is an abridged video by 'Unherd'.

Compilation of reports about Ukraine, Georgia and Uganda. While the international 'liberal democratic' political movement wants to save countries, many countries are not so sure that they need to be saved. Georgia is a good first example of Anthony Blinken's publicly stated desire for the general population to rise up against their government, if it is unsuitable. The situation is complicated by the battle over the "sphere of influence" that the US, the EU and Russia desire to achieve in Georgia. Neutrality for Georgia, is perhaps its only guarantee of peace. If Georgia proves that it is too weak to prevent excessive external influence on their government, it sends a signal to foreign agents to become more involved. No country is an island (metaphorically), but some have more barriers to being over-run than others. Unfortunately some simple messages are kind of like lottery tickets, they promise people hope, but generally contribute to their poverty. In reality, Georgia will have to tread a fine line, between two powerful neighbours, if it wants to retain peace.

Excerpt from The Duran, discussing Cofer Black who was a former chief of counter terrorism CIA and subsequently was on the board of the Latvian "Baltic International bank" and also on the Board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings together with Hunter Biden. Full video: https://rumble.com/v4ps0v8-off-ramp-or-wider-war-w-larry-johnson-live.html Cofer Black joined Burisma in 2017. Not clear to me when or if he ceased being a board member. Hunter Biden was a board member at Burisma at the same time as Cofer Black. He joined in 2014 and ceased in 2019. Cofer Black joined Baltic International Bank in Nov 2016. Hunter Biden was on the board from 2014 to 2019 - when his laptop data was leaked. Hunter Biden and Cofer Black were both on the board of Burisma holdings from 2017 to 2019. The Baltic International Bank was closed for money laundering in December 2022 (During the first year of the Ukraine war). Its unclear what Larry Johnson meant by the Baltic International Bank being "sanctioned" in 2018. Latvian banks are pretty corrupt banks. Baltic International Bank, I suppose was regularly fined for corruption before and during the time Cofer Black was there. e.g. 2013 Latvian govt fines Baltic International Bank. http://lawandorderinrussia.org/2013/latvian-regulator-imposes-largest-possible-fine-on-a-latvian-bank-involved-in-money-laundering-connected-to-the-magnitsky-case/ Report on closure of the bank in 2022: https://www.occrp.org/en/daily/17199-latvia-shutters-baltic-international-bank-for-not-preventing-money-laundering Yes its interesting that an ex-CIA cheif and Hunter Biden (the son of the US vice-president), were employed by a Ukraine gas company.

Pascal Lottaz interviews Ulrike Guérot who was dismissed without notice, and is without pay for 15 months. It appears coincidental that this occurred 10 days after her personal (not representing the university) publication of a book on Europe's place in the world and the Ukraine war.

Ireland's referendum on the 8th of March 2024 concerning family and marriage.

Victoria Nuland's involvement in supporting the 2013 political swing towards the European Union. The interim governments decision to remove Russian as an official language causes a wider rift in the ethnic differences between the east and the west of Ukraine. The Risk of Nuclear War

- Victoria Nuland's phone recording in 2014 - JFK Juniours comments on the causes of the Ukraine war - General Harald Kujat's comments on the failed Peace Treaty negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in March 2022 - Russel Brand's comments on EU troops and Nuclear war

I recommend seeing the original if you have time. This abridged version concentrates on Ukraine, but the original concerns Germany's place in the current scheme of international politics. It does seem that the retired general supports Germany militarising. But at the same time, he advocates a negotiated solution to the war in Ukraine, rather than risk a Europe wide war, that could result in a limited exchange of nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

Interview of Emeritus Prof. Richard Sakwa at University of Kent. https://www.kent.ac.uk/politics-international-relations/people/2273/sakwa-richard Full interview with Alexander Mercouris and Glenn Diesen can be found here https://rumble.com/v4imp3c-the-lost-peace-richard-sakwa-alexander-mercouris-and-glenn-diesen.html

Pascal Lottaz, discusses the limitation of knowledge, and certainty. https://neutralitystudies.com/ There is always a possibility that an analyst gets things wrong. Statistically, its highly likely given sufficient quantity of decisions that a small number of them will classify the correct answer, as a false answer. And the false answer as the correct one. i.e. A false positive, or a false negative. Asking anyone (even a trained academic) to provide the correct answer 100% of the time, is unreasonable, and irrational. Also in information warfare, publishing information that causes misclassification is the objective. The obvious danger to the academic is one of their misclassifications is used as a basis by political opponents to terminate their employment. For this reason academics, like lawyers, are very reluctant to make statements unless they can be proved irrefutably. This often leads to weak statements, and slowness in building the structure, of a comprehensive analysis. Slow case building, but necessary. There are also a lot of religious philosophies, about the truth being unknowable, or being something that is created autonomously by the individual. Both theories I reject. Pascal correctly points out that if you have sufficient quantity of facts that have independent high probabity of being correct, all corroborating a theory, then the probability of error is reduced, and the likely hood of the theory being correct is high. e.g. If I can explain 10 reasons why Neil Armstrong landed on the moon, probably it can be verified that it occurred. Objective truth is disputed nowdays by some theoreticians. But in reality, do I care if some theoretician disputes the existence of the light bulb being on in the kitchen? No, I base my assessment on reality that I can see the lightbulb shining. - These theoretical arguments are simply impractical. If I want to check whether the US lies about overthrowing governments, I just read the history books. Or the public newspaper statements about Iraq, or Lybia or the invasion of Syria. etc. Yes its possible to make a mistake, but even with errors, there are checks one can make. Does the conclusion of assessment withstand new information. Therefore if new information is continually analysed, there will always be the possibility of changing a false classification, into the correct category. This review of a fact, should never end until the probability of misclassification is acceptablely low. Does that make you correct? If you follow this procedure? No, it doesn't. But it does ensure that one is very very likely to be correct.

A video by Glenn Diesen and Alexander Mercouris that argues that the primary cause for the Ukraine war is the rise of the economies such as China, India and Russia. Russia is proposing a Westphalia type "world order", that is very similar to the basis on which the UN was founded immediately after the second world war. Westphalian system that was formed in 1648 has: - the idea of national sovereignty, - the idea that small nations have "equality" with powerful nations, - and that external interference in national politics is a breach of international law. The approach supported by UK, the EU, Canada and the US is the "sovereign inequality" approach. The term used is based on the idea that there is an ethical need for certain countries to have more power than others to bring stability and order to international relations. Evidently some countries have always been (and will always be) not equal with their peers, even if the direction the international order takes is the Westphalian one. Irrespective of predictions, the ranking of national power is currently under dispute. India for example appears to have increased its economic wealth/power by 50% over the last 10 years. The change in relative power of individual countries is a contributor towards predisposing countries to engaging in wars of various kinds, (e.g. military, economic, technological and cultural) as they vie for improved strategic positions. Glenn Diesen suggests that the Westphalian system (if the world takes this direction) proposed by Russia and China may result in less conflict, than the current situation where political and military strength is being tested.

Critical comment by Max Blumenthal of the ethically dubious use of an app "The State and Me" developed by the US government in conjunction with Ukraine. "The State and Me App" is used as a portal for the public to interact with government institutions. In this video, Max Blumenthol considers the potential of the app for social control by the state, and the role of misallocation of US government military funding in causing poverty in the US. Unfortunately, Max seems to overstep the mark of publishing and notifying the public, to additionally seeking reputational damage. Reputational damage maybe an indirect result of publications, but should not be the aim of a reporter. The aim of a reporter is to identify the truth, and to publish it. Max's work, which is never the less important, can be found at "The grey zone". Note: Comments on the use of "The State and Me" app in the covid vaccination payments, and I suppose a reference to its use as a vaccine passport was omitted. The app can be used: as an alternative to a plastic Ukrainian ID card, as evidence of residency in Ukraine, and it can be used to enter or exit Ukraine from a foreign country. See link below. Unfortunately, the wayback machine doesn't seem to store this site. https://www.kmu.gov.ua/en/news/mihajlo-fedorov-ukrayina-persha-derzhava-svitu-v-yakij-cifrovi-pasporti-u-smartfoni-stali-povnimi-yuridichnimi-analogami-zvichajnih-dokumentiv Excerpt:- Ukrainians can already use digital passports in most life situations. They are accepted by CASPs for the provision of public services, government agencies and courts. Digital passports can be used to receive deliveries in the post office, to confirm age in supermarkets, in banks - to confirm identity and cash transactions, as well as to open a bank account online. With digital passports, you can also travel to Ukraine by plane and train, check into a hotel and more. Digital documents in the smartphone are also used in Poland and South Korea. Similar projects are being implemented in the UK, Finland and the USA. Estonian citizens use a digital ID card, with which they can receive public services online, manage bank accounts and vote online. However, Ukraine is the first country in the world where digital passports in smartphones have legally gained the same force as paper and plastic documents. In September 2021, Ukraine will begin entering the "paperless" regime - public authorities will not have the right to require paper documents if the necessary information is already in the registers.

Abridged interview by Patrick Henningsen with Glenn Diesen Russia wishes to negotiate and avoid a conflict between two nuclear powers - Nato & Russia. It wants to create a military buffer zone. Both Russia and Nato have amassed troops outside the conflict region in preparation for entering Ukraine, and dividing it. Nato will tolerate Ukraine negotiating with Russia, even if the US does not wish Ukraine to negotiate. Russia could still accept a neutral Ukraine with access to the black sea. But it looks as if diplomacy will not occur, and consequently Ukraine will be divided by military force.

Collated & abridged video (Moats.tv and Kim Iversen) Gonazalo Lira passed away on 11 January. He was a political journalist that was intentionally neglected for 8 months by the Democrat administration, and allowed to be left in a Ukraine prison (see at end of video). His rib was broken in prison, and subsequently he got fluid in both lungs from pneumonia. He was refused treatment for about 6 weeks even though he was unable to breath properly. He was only admitted to Hospital after his medical situation was acknowledged in a court hearing. He was a dual citizen of US and Chile. The Chilean government helped him, the US government intentionally chose not to, even after it was brought to Biden's personal attention by a twitter message from Elon Musk . "Following his father’s appearance on Carlson’s show, X owner Elon Musk personally inquired about Lira’s case with both US President Joe Biden and Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, apparently to no effect. ... Lira suggested that this was because Victoria Nuland – currently the acting deputy to Secretary of State Antony Blinken – hated him personally." -Daily Telegraph

Compilation video. - Introduction to Ukraine conflict by John Pilger (recently deceased). - Arestovich, the advisor to the President of Ukraine, saying in 2019 that he wanted to take a political path that would result in a war with Russia, so that Ukraine could join Nato. -Arestovich, more recently in exile. He seems to be saying (whether he is honestly stating it or not, is unclear), that Ukraine can not be independent. The West in his opinion was industrially unprepared to support a large scale war in Ukraine i.e. he backed the wrong horse, and therefore is supporting an alliance with Russia. - Comments by a US lawyer (Vivafrei/Barnes) on upcoming court cases, that include democrat attempts to pervert the judicial system to eliminate the opposition Republican presidential candidate. Also the US government misuse of powers to censor the digital public square (social media), for the purpose of biasing US elections.

Excerpts from Tucker, TheDuran, Russel Brand and Matt Taibbi Does the state involve itself in what was previously considered the religious/ethical domain? Is there a cultural revolution promoted by the state?
