≈ Comments Off on More About Those “Headaches” in Iraq
Will we ever get the full number? O. 10. 12s. 100. 109. And counting.
Keltz, who said he had concussion symptoms for days, is among 109 soldiers diagnosed with traumatic brain injuries in the wake of last month’s attack, a figure that has steadily risen as more troops report symptoms and get medical screening.
414,000 TBI cases in the past two decades. The very high cost of Empire.

It would look a lot like this BS.
I honed in on this one because of the headline that the USA ranked 39th in the world for raising children. We’ve slipped. But, I prefer honest metrics, which these globalists don’t even pretend to offer. Rather, half of their metrics is “climate change,” the other half is … (Surprise!) communism.

≈ Comments Off on A Reliable Investigation v. Washington Lies
The charade in DC never stops, even as it endangers the entire world. Philip Giraldi on the (forgotten?) Iran attacks:
If the Iraqi investigation of the facts around the December attack on K-1 is reliable, the Donald Trump administration’s reckless actions in Iraq in late December and early January cannot be justified. Worse still, it would appear that the White House was looking for an excuse to attack and kill a senior Iranian official to send some kind of message, a provocation that could easily have resulted in a war that would benefit no one. To be sure, the Trump administration has lied about developments in the Middle East so many times that it can no longer be trusted. Unfortunately, demanding any accountability from the Trump team would require a Congress that is willing to shoulder its responsibility for truth in government backed up by a media that is willing to take on an administration that regularly punishes anyone or any entity that dares to challenge it. That is the unfortunate reality in America today.
Of course, an honest President, Congress, and press would only be demanded by an honest people. Honest people are a dying breed in a dying Empire.

≈ Comments Off on Desperate BREXIT Lies
A little too late, don’t you think? The globos dredged up all manner of untruth to try to stifle the will of the British People – stock collapse, no healthcare, no food, blah, blah. Now, they resort to the most unusual, ridiculous, and woefully belated attempt:
The U.K.’s worst productivity slump in a quarter of a millennium may be caused by a “perfect storm” of three factors, according to a study to be published this week.
Productivity was almost 20% below its pre-2008 path in 2018 — the worst slowdown since 1760-1800, as the Industrial Revolution took hold. The present-day malaise may have been caused by the end of the information and communications technology boom, the financial crisis, and Brexit.
BREXIT!!! See the graph – which, by the way, shows a productivity INCREASE over the past ten years, even with some separation from the general employment. Shock. And, it’s ten years. How could BREXIT factor – again, see the graph – into an increasing “decline” that started long before Leave cranked up? It didn’t.
Hint for GB: when you commence the repatriations, make damned sure to ship the wizards out first. That by itself would raise productivity, spirits too.

≈ Comments Off on Ron Unz and False Flags
A massive (27,300 words!) Unz-esque article which sheds light on the murder of General Soleimani, 9/11, and more. Tuck your “TL;DR” away, this is worth it. Pay attention. And, watch Dr. Alan Sabrosky’s interview with the Iranian journalist; listen to his radio interview. 100% certain.
The January 2nd American assassination of Gen. Qassem Soleimani of Iran was an event of enormous moment.
Gen. Soleimani had been the highest-ranking military figure in his nation of 80 million, and with a storied career of 30 years, one of the most universally popular and highly regarded. Most analysts ranked him second in influence only to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s elderly Supreme Leader, and there were widespread reports that he was being urged to run for the presidency in the 2021 elections.
The circumstances of his peacetime death were also quite remarkable. His vehicle was incinerated by the missile of an American Reaper drone near Iraq’s Baghdad international airport just after he had arrived there on a regular commercial flight for peace negotiations originally suggested by the American government.
…
Read on…
Whatever the truth of a matter is, it is almost always the opposite of what is officially pronounced by the government and the media or what is taught as history. Y’all been lied to. Repeatedly.
In the days in and around 9/11, I was very close to many of the neocons and was perilously close to joining them. There was a smell about it all. Of sulfur.
If Americans ever know…

Assuming this latest embassy story isn’t a lie too.
Three rockets slammed into the US embassy in Iraq’s capital on Sunday in the first direct hit reported after months of close calls, as thousands kept up anti-government sit-ins across the country.
The attack marked a dangerous escalation in the spree of rocket attacks in recent months that have targeted the embassy or Iraqi military bases where American troops are deployed.
None of the attacks has been claimed but Washington has repeatedly blamed Iran-backed military factions in Iraq.
On Sunday, one rocket hit an embassy cafeteria at dinner time while two others landed nearby, a security source told AFP.
A senior Iraqi official told AFP at least one person was wounded, but it was not immediately clear how serious the injuries were and whether the person was an American national or an Iraqi staff member working at the mission.
The US embassy did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Yeah, I’d imagine not. Probably crafting the first of several tall tales while being admonished that the drones still haven’t been replaced and can be easily hit again (along with the embassy and the carriers). The empire’s over folks. Time to come home.

≈ Comments Off on Is TBI TMI?
No straight story ever emerges from Washington, at least as told or retold by the government. Pentagon says no injuries 11 injuries 34 injuries related to the Iranian missile strike in Iraq.
The Pentagon said on Friday that 34 service members had been diagnosed with traumatic brain injury following missile strikes by Iran on a base in Iraq earlier this month, a number higher than the military had previously announced.
President Donald Trump and other top officials initially said Iran’s attack had not killed or injured any U.S. service members.
Last week the U.S. military said 11 U.S. troops had been treated for concussion symptoms after the attack on the Ain al-Asad air base in western Iraq and this week said additional troops had been moved out of Iraq for potential injuries.
Still no word on the hardware lost. Or, any rational explanation for why our troops were there in the first place.

≈ Comments Off on Traumatic Brain Injury: Believe Nothing from DC
Putting aside the semantics of “American” v. “US” troops, we have yet another lie alteration to the ever-shifting narrative out of Iraq, in re the Iranian missile strike.
Nearly a dozen American troops were injured in the Iranian missile attack on two bases in Iraq last week, Defense Department officials said, after initially stating that there were no casualties in the strikes.
Eleven individuals are being screened for traumatic brain injuries following the attacks on two bases in Iraq that house American troops. Iran fired a dozen rockets total at Erbil in northern Iraq and the sprawling Al Asad air base in the west in retaliation for the American killing of Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani days before. Pentagon officials at the time said there were no casualties.
How should the U.S. respond, if at all, to American soldiers being injured after an Iranian attack? Join the conversation below.
But late Thursday, U.S. Central Command acknowledged that there were injuries and the 11 service members suffered concussions during the attack.
“While no U.S. service members were killed in the Jan. 8 Iranian attack on Al Asad Air base, several were treated for concussion symptoms from the blast and are still being assessed,” according to Capt. Bill Urban, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Fla. “As a standard procedure, all personnel in the vicinity of a blast are screened for traumatic brain injury, and if deemed appropriate, are transported to a higher level of care.”
They have a lot of traumatic brain injuries in DC. A LOT. This had to be expected. So why hide it for a week? The Fateh-110’s carry 1,400-pound high explosive warheads. That means a hefty concussive blast, especially when multiple rounds hit in close proximity (and with much greater precision than the rated 3 meters).
Any bets on what the next change shall be?

≈ Comments Off on Under the Omnibus – from TPC
Under the Omnibus
Your insane President, when he’s not murdering known diplomats, enjoys signing garbage legislation from the criminal Congress. Last month, at the urging of Bitch McConnell and the other reprobates, The Trump cheerfully signed into law a poorly-cobbled amalgamation of a spending bill. The Empire doesn’t do full budgets anymore, so it’s only $1.37 Trillion at a sad time – generally once per quarter. But the embarrassing expense of evil comes with other costs. The new law also raised the age for purchasing cigars and other tobacco products to 21. And, thank God! Now, I can finally enjoy a smoke without all those damned pesky toddlers roaming around the lounge crying and exchanging germs (sorry, Bess, what they do). The ban, as you may know, is plainly authorized by the Zeroth Amendment of the US Cornsternation.
Tweeted The Trump: “Our beautiful, beautiful children. So much smoke. IRAN WILL NEVER ROLL A CIGAR. My watch. SO SAD. Obama did it too. Yuuge. MIGA.” Ketchup on a well-done steak.
My tobacconist buddy’s new warning sign. Humorous dissent is, for now, still legal.
Building on this trend of creeping incrementalism, a sarcastic state senator in Vermont, John Rodgers, whom I’d kind of like to meet, introduced a bill to ban “children” under the age of 21 from owning or using cellular mind control and tracking devices. Rodgers noted that he wouldn’t even vote for the change himself, stating that he introduced it to make a point. “The kids” can’t buy smokes or beer. Why let them dull their minds and risk their lives sexting and driving? I might suggest a rider to raise the driving age as well.
Mr. Rodgers: please keep this one in your neighborhood. Should Trump, Pelosi, and the other shits get wind of it, they may well try to federalize the concept. I’m sure the CIA-OPA could quickly conjure up a convincing B-movie-like video showing some paid actors trashing an embassy or something because Iran wants to cellularize our youth. My only hope is that they would still allow 5G to proceed apace; in addition to the wonderful biological benefits you’ll soon experience from the well-tested super-duper-micro-hyper waves, you just wouldn’t believe what else they will enable. But, you will.
Anyway, all this got me thinking. Some few of you from time to time murmur that you oppose big government. Yet and still, later this year, you’ll rush right out and cast your votes to keep it around. So be it. I’m here to help, really. The other week, for the first time in my life, I proposed a tax – for the children! Now, I have another idea.

Iran, lies, Trump, War, war crimes
Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump
The Fake News Media and their Democrat Partners are working hard to determine whether or not the future attack by terrorist Soleimani was “imminent” or not, & was my team in agreement. The answer to both is a strong YES., but it doesn’t really matter because of his horrible past!
Trump also accused the media of trying to portray “terrorist Soleimani” as a “wonderful guy.”
Though the president has claimed the January 3 assassination of Soleimani was due to the general planning attacks against US forces and embassies, his own defense secretary admitted on Sunday that he “didn’t see” any specific evidence to suggest those attacks were imminent.
I’m sure they have just as much evidence about the horrible past as they did about the imminent attacks.
AND, what if the following had any truth to it?
The Russian military website refers to an independent investigation that concluded the US is “at least partial US responsibility” in the January 8 tragedy:
“According to experts, the US military had deliberately changed the information on the Ukrainian Boeing 737 flight, making it a real target for the Iranian air defense systems.”
According to data from Pentagon-related sources, several U.S. military planes were observed in the sky in the vicinity of Iran’s airspace, just at the time of the Boeing’s flight departure.
Anomalies were observed on Iran’s radar system, probably due to a cyber attack.
The civilian plane was therefore confused with a fighter plane heading directly for a military target.
“Since the pilot made a U-turn, it is very likely that the US cyber attack had also focused on the navigation system of the Ukrainian Boeing. This is not the first time that Americans have done this type of action, ” said Avia.pro.
What? Nothing, of course. We don’t do the truth anymore in this dead nation. Let nothing interfere with the football and the drugs. Yes, long-time readers, I was on this aviation remote threat five years ago. Good to see the warning was heeded.
