3 of my favorite Substack pages have new entries, which i got too late for inclusion, but there will be another regular edition tomorrow, taking Friday off. Starting with Biomedical.
Biomedical. Dr Sam Bailey looks at the alleged Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and allegedly it its most common effect, infectious mononucleosis.
Glandular Fever and the Fable of EBV, Dr Sam Bailey 4/16/24, 21 minutes.
[Link to show notes page. From it,…]
"In recent years, we have received many requests to talk about ‘infectious mononucleosis’, also known as ‘glandular fever’. Although people have realised that germ theory is a refuted hypothesis and there is no evidence that microbes are ‘pathogens‘, is glandular fever not something that goes around?
There is so much to unpack when it comes to the alleged Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Its apparent powers to infect almost everyone and cause a growing number of diseases including cancers and multiple sclerosis is now being used to justify the development of a vaccine that is clearly aimed at the childhood vaccination schedule. However, the mythology that has been built on EBV has its origins in the 1960s and there are a couple of pivotal virology papers that everyone needs to know about.
What exactly is the condition known as glandular fever and why is it unwise to act as though there is an ‘it’ passing around? What is the body trying to do and how can we learn from the experience? Join me in this video as we discuss all this and more…
NOTE: in this presentation I refer to “EBV antibodies” in general. Many laboratories perform several different antibody assays (e.g. see here) with the claim that they indicate different stages of the “infection”. I outline why none of the assays can be used as evidence for a virus.”
My comments. The lack of science regarding this entire chapter of Virology, especially the basis of the lab work and the “pivotal papers," is stunning. I was diagnosed with this alleged disease in November 1972, a day after Nixon’s incredible re-election victory. Thus, i was a direct casualty of this alleged branch of science on this matter.
4IR. German police mobilized in force in Berlin to shut down a conference called the Palestine Congress, which had ample international participation, including by Jewish organizations, on the basis that it was “liable to lead to anti-Semitic hate speech." One absolutely grotesque result was a certain arrest, reported on by British online commentator/video-maker Owen Jones.
Jewish German ARRESTED Over Gaza Speaks Out - w/. Udi Raz, Owen Jones, 4/16/24, 16 minutes.
"Germany is persecuting Jews in the name of combating antisemitism. The world is turned upside down.”
My comment. He was specifically arrested for “anti-Semitic acts."
And, a somewhat more detailed report about the conference, including some very poignant questions regarding celebrities who expressed outrage about this act of repression.
The Palestine Congress, 4/16/24. CJ Hopkins [Alert: frequent sarcasm!]
Thank God for the German Hate Police! Or heil … or whatever the appropriate salutation is for these unsung heroes. They just saved us all from “hate” again! Yes, that’s right, once again, democracy-loving people here in New Normal Berlin and all across the New Normal world were right on the brink of being exposed to “hate,” and would have been exposed to “hate,” had the Hate Police not sprang into action.
You probably have no idea what I’m talking about. OK, what happened was, some pro-Palestinian activists organized a “Palestine Congress,” and attempted to discuss the situation in Gaza, and call for solidarity with the Palestinians, and so on, right here in the middle of Berlin, the epicenter of European democracy, as if they thought they had a right to do that. The German authorities were clearly intent on disabusing them of that notion.
Early Friday morning, hundreds of black-clad Hate Police descended on the congress location. Reinforcements were called in from throughout the nation. Metal barricades were erected on the sidewalks. Hate Police stood guard at the entrance. The German media warned the public that a potential “Hate-Speech” attack was now imminent. Berliners were advised to shelter in place, switch off their phones and any other audio-receptive communication devices, and wad up little pieces of toilet paper and ram them deep into their ear canals to prevent any possible exposure to the “hate.”
Sure enough, minutes into the congress, the anticipated “Hate-Speech” attack was launched! A Palestinian activist — Salman Abu Sitta — who had written an article that allegedly “expressed understanding of Hamas,” and thus had already been placed on the official German “No-Speak” list, started speaking to the congress on Zoom or whatever. Or … it isn’t quite clear whether he actually started speaking. According to a Hate Police spokesperson, they raided the congress because “there is a risk of a speaker being put on the screen who in the past made anti-Semitic and violence-glorifying remarks.”
Anyway, the Hate Police stormed the venue, pulled the plug, dispersed the crowd, and banned the rest of the “Palestine Congress,” which was scheduled to continue on Saturday and Sunday. Then they arrested a Jewish guy who was wearing a Palestinian-flag-kippah, presumably out of an abundance of caution.
But the “Hate-Speech” attack wasn’t over yet. It was one of those multi-pronged “Hate-Speech” attacks, or at least it involved one other prong. Earlier that morning, or perhaps while the Hate Police were still neutralizing the threat at the venue, Dr. Ghassan Abu Sitta, a prominent British surgeon, who had volunteered in Gaza and was due to speak at the congress, was intercepted by the Berlin Airport Hate Police, refused entry into Germany, and forced to return to the UK. The Airport Hate Police informed the doctor that he was being denied entry in order to ensure “the safety of the people at the conference and public order,” Abu Sitta told the Associated Press.
Kai Wegner, Berlin’s mayor, presumably feeling a bit nostalgic for the fanatical days of 2020 to 2023 when one could persecute “the Unvaccinated” with total impunity, took to X to celebrate the Hate Police’s thwarting of this “Hate event.”
The pro-Palestinian activist community also took to X and expressed their displeasure. Yanis “Vaccinate Humanity” Varoufakis, who was one of the organizers and was scheduled to speak, was particularly incensed over the new German “fascism,” which apparently he has just now noticed, despite the fact that it has been goose-stepping around in a medical-looking mask for the last four years.
Yanis was not alone in his outrage. An increasing number of mainstream German journalists, authors, academics, and other members of the professional “progressive” classes are stunned that the new totalitarian society that they fanatically ushered into being during the so-called “Covid Pandemic” era — or stood by in silence and watched it happen — is now unleashing its fascistic force against them.
Which, OK, I get it. I mean, if I had just spent the last four years behaving like a Nazi, you know, persecuting “the Unvaccinated,” demonizing everyone who refused to wear the insignia of my fascist ideology on their face, and parroting official propaganda like an enormous Goebbelsian keyboard instrument, or just stood by in silence while other people did that, I would probably want to act like that never happened, and pretend that Germany was suddenly going “fascist” over the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and just memory-hole the whole “Covid” thing.
I would probably be highly motivated to do that — if that were how I had behaved for the past four years — so that I didn’t appear to be a fucking hypocrite who will start clicking heels and following orders the moment the authorities declare another fake emergency and jack up the Fear.
Sorry … I’ve been trying to be less vituperative, but this memory-holing bullshit makes me go ballistic. If there is one demographic that I do not need to hear sanctimonious exhortations to speak out against the global crackdown on dissent from, it’s recently ex-Covidian-Cult leftists. In any event, thank God for those Hate Police! If it weren’t for them … well, just imagine the horror, if the activists at that Palestine Congress had been allowed to express their opinions about Israel. They might have even said the word “genocide,” or made reference to a “river” and a “sea.” Who knows what that kind of unbridled “hate” could lead to? Perhaps the end of democracy. Maybe even World War III.
A discussion in the comments section of the page, which i took part in, disclosed an incredible level of unmooring from reality of some “freedom” people, a reflection of the digital disembodiment my friend and colleague Eric Francis Coppolino has discussed a bunch. Time stamps are in UT.

Nothing like the stench of rank hypocrisy in the morning.
The Branch Covidians jabbed up to the eyeballs and triple masked obediently jumped onto the ‘next big thing’ when the Ukraine “war” kicked off. Waving their Ukrainian flags and cheering on the vaudeville act known as Zelensky. Meanwhile, the bulk of the “troofers” and freedom movement were rah-rahing for Putin.
Since, October 2023 we have the Covid cultists firmly behind the Palestinians and the once united – over the Plandemic – troofers, cleaved down the middle between the Palestines and Israel. Except for those who are sitting it out and refusing to pick-a-side including those who believe this conflict is manufactured “illusion warfare”.
The controllers must be high fiving each other and laughing their arses off, while quaffing copious bottles of Cristal. A job well done from their perspective.

Not totally manufactured, there is a real genocide happening, even if the-powers-that-would-be in Gaza, Hamas, not to bother mentioning the “Palestinian Authority” (Israeli enforcement agency), are corrupt and complicit in the Great Reset, as are the other regimes of the region.

No. There’s no proof of a single death except statements from faux authorities making billions from this scam.
They get their fake death tolls in Gaza EXACTLY the same way they did with coviscam, by falsely attributing a percentage of natural, all-cause deaths to a completely orchestrated non-conflict.

Dude, i know people who’ve lost family members. I’ve seen live events, the camera people getting shot. And look at the place, it’s fucking LEVELED, all the hospitals, most of the buildings, destroyed, and you’re saying no deaths?

Names? Ages? Occupations? How do you know them?
Or you don’t know ALLEGED DEAD you just know people who told you some story about someone THEY know.
I’ll bet money you were told from “people” IN YOUR ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS 9/11“Group”.

You can say that about any conflict. Are they all staged then?

Actually, no, though i’m totally willing to uphold the reputation of AE911Truth against Judy Wood trolls.
You aren’t listing your own real name, and you demand that i provide you with full information about people? That’s grotesquely rich.
And there is the reality of what’s now 76 years of genocide. I saw a bunch of the consequences of that with my own eyes. Sure, you can claim i’m fake too. You’ve demonstrated you got enough chutzpah to do so.

You stated “it’s fucking LEVELED, all the hospitals, most of the buildings, destroyed, and you’re saying no deaths?”
What have you ACTUALLY seen?
The same as the rest of us – images and videos on TV, the MSM, the alt-media and anti-Social Media.
To repeat what I said in another comment, I do NOT know definitively one way or the other but I am questioning everything based on the mounting evidence of fakery from both sides.
The Plandemic and the Ukraine “war” has shown me how easy it is to fool the public and how those who know the truth do not come forward to speak out.
Especially when self-interest is involved – usually monetary, be it not wishing to lose their job or by receiving financial inducements such as hospitals during Convid and doctors for each jab stuck in the arm of the public.

I’ve seen photos taken by people i know. The Plandemic is one thing, as it revolved around one entity, the alleged SARS-CoV-2 virus, which cannot be seen, which in fact has never been proven to have been isolated and purified, as admitted by now 222 public health entities around the world. On the other hand, lots of people have been to Gaza. Quite audacious on the part of someone using a pseudonym to claim everything is fake.

I have already stated I do NOT know for sure. You have not read my comment carefully.
Have you looked at the links I provided? I am not asking you to believe them but merely to take a look and then decide.
Have you been to Gaza? I have not.
Do you know anyone personally who is in Gaza, someone who is not an acquaintance but a real-life close friend who you trust?
You seem to be very defensive for no reason.
For me personally, I would prefer it if the whole thing was an illusion and no-one had died or been injured. Even if it means that we have been deceived by those directing both sides.

In fact, i know people who are friends who have family in Gaza. You’re a good example of just how disembodied people have become by digital society, an environment which is among other things promoting flat each, because “everything is an illusion,” just something you see digitally.
Ending this segment and this edition, Riley Waggaman’s weekly summary of Russian news media. Only the highlights.
NEWS FROM RUSSIA: April 16, 2024. Edward's weekly Russia-related news roundup & open thread. Edward Slavsquat, 4/16/24.
Welcome to Edward Slavsquat’s weekly Russian media news roundup and open thread-thing. Feel free to share your own URLs in the comments section.
The quote of the week: "At a joint meeting of State Duma committees, the head of the Bank of Russia said: “We are going to expand the pilot for the digital ruble, and based on its results we will determine the timing of serious scaling of the digital ruble. But, in our opinion, this will happen no earlier than 2025.” […]
It was previously planned that Russian citizens would be able to try out the digital ruble as early as 2024, so the timeline is starting to get pushed back. […] Apart from the opportunity to quickly and irrevocably part with your honestly earned money … nothing new and useful is being offered to citizens of the Russian Federation. But here’s what interests me most: Who??? Who are these people who are waiting for the mass introduction of the digital ruble?

Have a nice Tuesday. — Riley
A profound post, even though it's not really news, but it feels like it somehow. But it speaks, loudly, it SHOUTS for us to stop and THINK and FEEL and pay attention and DO SOMETHING.
Thanks for putting your experience and feelings "out here"-- I think it makes a difference. I hope so, anyway. I feel the same way, via different means. and vicariously through your words..
It is my deepest hope that Humanity can find an opening through which we can begin a NEW ERA, and it's up to those who can IMAGINE it to keep on trying to describe it, and rise above the HELL.
Thanks for this.
