Nightmare of Jerusalem Part VII – The Birth of Islamic Nationalism

Nightmare of Jerusalem Part 7

Press TV (2025)

Film Review

This episode briefly summarizes the decline of secular Arab nationalism and rise of Islamic nationalism.

Following World War II, the socialist Arab parties across the Middle East united under the pan-Arab Baath Party. Built on ethnic pride, the Ba’ath Party took power in Egypt, Iraq, Syria and Jordan. Constrained by internal struggles and deliberate destabilization by Western governments and Israel, it eventually collapsed (Syria was the last Ba’ath party regime to fall in December 2024).

Beginning in the 1960s, Shiite scholars in Homs (Syria) organized to to rebirth the movement along Islamic principles. Integral to this movement, Iran’s revolutionary leader Iman Khomeini wrote many letters to the Shah, warning him about negative US and CIA influences on Iran. Once he began addressing public gatherings, he was arrested and exiled. He spent his 14 years in exile continuing to organize against the Shah’s government.

Not in our name: US citizens take action over tax dollars fueling Gaza genocide

By Alireza Akbari

On May 14, the grassroots group Taxpayers Against Genocide (TAG), along with the National Lawyers Guild International Committee, submitted a legal filing to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, charging the US government of enabling Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.

The historic complaint states that US military and financial support for the Israeli apartheid regime has played a direct role in the destruction of Palestinian lives in Gaza.

The 133-page document includes sworn affidavits from Palestinian-American plaintiffs who lost loved ones in Israel’s ongoing genocidal war on Gaza, where more than 53,000 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 120,000 injured over the past 19 months, as per official estimates.

The complaint names former US presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump, as well as members of US Congress, accusing them of funding and arming a genocidal campaign.

Huwaida Arraf, a civil rights attorney and Palestinian solidarity activist, announced the filing of the complaint in Washington, D.C.

Arraf, who also helped lead the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, drafted the petition and is serving as lead attorney on the case.

Huwaida Arraf, human rights attorney and a founder of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, speaking at the May 14 press conference in DC.

She said the complaint was brought before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights because the US has “effectively shielded itself from accountability for its international crimes under its own legal system, even for crimes against humanity and genocide.”

“The US cannot continue to finance, arm, and politically cover for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide abroad while remaining immune from international scrutiny,” she noted.

“This petition is a call for accountability where none has yet been possible.”

Arraf was joined by several co-complainants, including Robert S. McCaw, director of government affairs at the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR); Dr. Nidal Jboor, co-founder of Doctors Against Genocide (DAG); and Jacqueline Luqman, chair of the coordinating committee for the Black Alliance for Peace (BAP), along with TAG members and Palestinian-American plaintiffs.

The complaint is supported by a broad coalition of advocacy groups, including the Arab Resource Organizing Center Action, Palestinian Youth Movement, US Palestinian Community Network, CAIR, the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network, CODEPINK, Black Alliance for Peace, Doctors Against Genocide, Friends of Latin America, the Nicaraguan Solidarity Coalition, Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom, the Alliance for Global Justice, and many others.

At a press conference held Wednesday in Washington, several plaintiffs delivered prepared statements condemning US support for the Israeli regime’s genocide in Gaza. They called for an immediate halt to the use of American tax dollars to fund Israel’s genocidal campaign.

Seth Michael Donnelly, a social worker and co-founder of TAG, cited his long-standing activism against US-backed human rights abuses worldwide.

“As a social worker,” he said, “I’ve spent years trying to stop human rights violations perpetrated by the US government.”

Donnelly also emphasized the efforts of high school students in his community, who, in January 2024, met with Congressman Mike Thompson to express their concerns about US complicity in the ongoing campaign of extermination of Palestinians in Gaza.

“They urged him to stop sending weapons and US tax dollars as military aid to Israel in light of the growing evidence of genocide in Gaza,” he said.

Despite the students’ appeal, Donnelly said, “Representative Thompson did not heed the information he was provided. Thompson willfully ignored the concerns of these students, and the majority of his own constituents.”

Donnelly pointed out that Thompson was one of 365 members of Congress who, on April 20, 2024, voted to approve $26.38 billion in funding through the so-called ‘Israeli Supplemental Security Act’, with most of it designated for military aid to the Tel Aviv regime. On April 23, 2024, 79 Senators also approved the $26.38 billion Israeli aid package as part of a broader spending bill. “In so doing, these representatives demonstrated a blatant disregard for the bill’s illegal provision of US weapons to support ongoing war crimes and plausible genocide,” he stated.

According to the plaintiffs and human rights advocates, the vote came despite mounting evidence that US-supplied weapons were being used by the Israeli military to commit acts that meet the legal definition of genocide in the Palestinian territory.

Jacqueline Luqman, Chair of the Coordinating Committee of the Black Alliance for Peace, speaking at the May 14 press conference.

Jacqueline Luqman, chair of the Coordinating Committee of the Black Alliance for Peace (BAP), reiterated the group’s full support for the legal effort led by TAG.

“We support TAG’s campaign to end the use of US taxpayer dollars to fund genocide in Palestine, Lebanon, and everywhere else Israel is implicated in human rights violations and war crimes, such as in Congo,” she stated.

She also emphasized that while US citizens struggle to make ends meet under a capitalist dictatorship that deprives people of their basic needs for the profit of a few, the US government is once again violating international law and its own Congressional mandates by facilitating genocide using its citizens’ resources.

Palestinian-American plaintiff Tarik Kanaan underscored Israel’s “systematic destruction” of Palestinian history, heritage, and culture.

“The intentional destruction of the ancient Al-Omari mosque, the ancient Byzantine Church and the Church of Jabalia, the third oldest in the world, to name a few, inflicts irreversible damage to our traditions and cultural history,” he said.

Kanaan added that Israel’s acts of genocide have only been possible because of Washington’s unwavering support. He pointed to “the full support and protection of the US” that has allowed the Israeli regime “to destroy anything and everything that sustains life to the Palestinian people.”

Tariq Raouf, a human rights activist and one of the plaintiffs, described Israel’s genocidal actions in Gaza as “a blatant violation of morality, human rights, and ethics.” He added that without accountability, the genocide would continue unchecked.

“I did not consent to my tax dollars being used to commit violence against my own family; I did not consent to paying for the bullets and bombs that have killed 43 of my family members,” he said.

Raouf called on fellow Americans to reject the use of public funds for war.

“It is a ludicrous and delusional expectation that we, the American taxpayers, will stand idly by while money that should be going to our education, healthcare and veterans is instead going on to fund more war crimes, and more deaths,” he remarked.

Dr. Nidal Jboor, co-founder of Doctors Against Genocide, emphasized the medical community’s alarm over the Israeli weaponization of basic necessities in Gaza.

“We are doctors. We swore to protect life—not to fund its destruction,” he said. “In our name, with our tax dollars, children in Gaza are being starved and bombed while food and medicine sit just five miles away,” he said.

Robert S. McCaw, Director of Government Affairs at the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), also voiced support for the plaintiffs and their legal team.

He stated that CAIR offers its fullest support in efforts to hold the US government accountable for its complicity in Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, as well as its occupation and apartheid of Palestinians throughout the region, including the occupied West Bank.

Nida Liftawiya, a Palestinian refugee, US taxpayer, and organizer with the Arab Resource and Organizing Center (AROC), expressed her outrage at how public funds have been used.

Committed to justice and human rights, she said she seeks “restitution” for the US government’s role in “misusing” her “tax dollars to commit genocide and ethnic cleansing” of Palestinians.

Cynthia Papermaster, Bay Area coordinator for the anti-war group CODEPINK, condemned the US government’s continued military support for the Israeli regime.

She pointed to the early April 2025 allocation of $8.8 billion in additional weapons and aid, saying the funding amounts to “thousands more 2,000-pound bombs and thousands more Hellfire missiles which are shredding the children of Gaza.”

She also called for a shift in focus to humanitarian relief. “We demand that our Senators and Representatives stop funding this barbaric and illegal massacre,” she said.

Monadel Herzallah, another plaintiff who lost 43 family members in the ongoing genocidal war, added, “We as Palestinians in the US have sought accountability in federal court, but we also made a pledge to seek justice in any other possible venue available.”

They further denounced the blockade of Gaza and the prevention of basic necessities from entering the blockaded territory, as well as the regime’s weaponization of starvation against Palestinians. Banners read, “bread not bombs” and “let the children eat.”

The legal filing came just one day before the anniversary of Nakba Day and followed months of sustained activism.

On April 7, TAG, a growing movement of over 2,000 American taxpayers, submitted a groundbreaking report to the UN Human Rights Council, detailing US congressional votes that have enabled Israel’s war on Gaza.

“We have gone through all the channels open to us in our effort to stop US officials from using our tax dollars to fund genocide. We have called and met with these officials, we have peacefully protested, and we have taken them to federal court. To date, none of this has stopped them,” Donnelly said following the April report.

He added that the genocide in Gaza continues, driven by American tax dollars.

“We have now elevated our struggle to the international arena, starting with our report to the UN Human Rights Council, as one necessary step towards countering the impunity of the US government.”

The report centers on violations by the US Congress and the executive branch, charging them with misusing taxpayers’ money to support, aid and abet genocide in Gaza.

TAG asserts that Israel’s acts of aggression against Palestinians would not be possible without US support, which supplies the majority of weapons used in war on Gaza.

It condemns US officials’ direct complicity in the genocide, presenting evidence that both the Biden and Trump administrations, as well as specific members of Congress, used federal funds to support war crimes—violating the US Constitution, domestic laws, and the Genocide Convention.

In December, after being repeatedly denied meetings with their representatives, the taxpayers filed a federal lawsuit—Seth Donnelly et al. v. Mike Thompson and Jared Huffman—against two Democratic congressmen.

Pam Bondi claims that demonstrators “incite violence” against Jewish students

US Attorney General Pam Bondi has described pro-Palestinian student protesters as “domestic terrorists,” warning that universities could lose federal funding if they fail to address anti-Semitism on campus.

Speaking to Fox News on Sunday, Bondi addressed recent unrest at Columbia University and urged institutions to take stronger action to protect Jewish students.

“It’s absurd that these universities are not stepping in to protect them, yet they’re shielding these protesters who are also, I believe, some domestic terrorists,” she said. Bondi claimed that demonstrators were “inciting riots and… violence against students on college campuses,” although she did not offer specific examples.

“We’re going to pull it from every university if you do not comply with the law,” Bondi warned, referring to the move by the administration of President Donald Trump to withdraw $400 million in funding from Columbia over its failure to stop anti-Semitic harassment.

In February, the US Justice Department formed a multi-agency task force focused on combating anti-Semitism, with its top priority targeting harassment in schools and universities. Officials said the group would coordinate federal enforcement and “root out” anti-Semitic behavior on campuses nationwide.

 Protests erupted last year at campuses across the United States, with students demanding an end to Washington’s support for Israel amid the war in Gaza. The demonstrations followed the October 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, which killed around 1,200 people and saw 250 taken hostage. In response, Israeli forces launched a large-scale offensive that has killed more than 50,000 people, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, and has devastated much of the Palestinian enclave. Columbia became a focal point of the protest movement in the US, alongside UC Berkeley, Harvard, Yale, Michigan, and Northwestern.

Protesters, including Jewish students, argue that criticism of Israeli policy does not constitute anti-Semitism. They say advocacy for Palestinian rights aligns with core American values. However, others on campus said the protests created a hostile environment. A Columbia University task force later found “serious and pervasive” issues affecting Jewish students.

Trump bans Harvard from admitting foreign students

Trump bans Harvard from admitting foreign students

RT

The Ivy League institution has been given 72 hours to comply with the White House’s demands

The White House has revoked Harvard University’s authorization to enroll international students, escalating its ongoing conflict with the Ivy League institution over its refusal to address alleged antisemitism on campus and dismantle diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

Since returning to office, US President Donald Trump has called on colleges and universities to put a stop to anti-Israel protests, which he has characterized as antisemitic, and dismantle DEI initiatives, which he has claimed promote “division and radicalism.” 

The ultimatum, announced on Thursday by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, gave the university 72 hours to comply with a list of federal demands in order to have its Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification reinstated. These demands include turning over all disciplinary records for non-immigrant students from the past five years, along with any electronic records, video, or audio documenting their “illegal, dangerous or violent” activity on campus.

“Harvard can no longer enroll foreign students, and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status,” Noem wrote in a letter to Harvard President Alan Garber dated May 22. “Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country.”

“This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus,” she stated.

The revocation of Harvard’s SEVP certification could affect nearly 6,800 international students currently enrolled at its Cambridge, Massachusetts campus, comprising approximately 27% of its 2024–25 student body.

“It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher tuition payments to help pad their multibillion-dollar endowments,” Noem added.

Harvard has denounced the decision as unlawful and politically retaliatory, arguing that the administration’s actions pose serious harm to the university’s academic mission and global reputation.

“We are fully committed to maintaining Harvard’s ability to host international students and scholars, who hail from more than 140 countries and enrich the University – and this nation – immeasurably,” said Harvard spokesperson Jason Newton in a statement.

The clash marks a major escalation in the Trump administration’s pressure campaign against elite universities, amid a growing political backlash over their handling of pro-Palestinian student protests.

After Harvard rejected federal demands and pledged to address internal issues on its own terms, the administration froze $2.2 billion in federal funding to the university, part of a broader review of nearly $9 billion in public grants awarded to Harvard and its affiliated research institutions.

Military base in paradise: Why decolonisation by the UK turns out to be fake again

Military base in paradise: Why decolonization by the UK turns out to be fake again

 

By Tamara Ryzhenkova

London and Washington attempt to forge a new neocolonial reality using old tactics, and at the expense of other nations.

The UK and Mauritius have signed an agreement to transfer sovereignty over the Chagos Archipelago in the Indian Ocean to Mauritius. Under the terms of the deal, London will relinquish control of the archipelago – which hosts a joint US-UK military base on its territory – but will retain authority over its largest island, Diego Garcia, under a 99-year lease in exchange for financial assistance.

According to The Guardian, the administration of US President Donald Trump, which was consulted on the deal, has approved it.

“The strategic location of this base is of the utmost significance to Britain, from deploying aircraft to defeat terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan to anticipating threats in the Red Sea and the Indo-Pacific,” UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced.

What is the Chagos Archipelago?

News of the UK’s decision to return the strategically significant Chagos Archipelago to Mauritius first became known on October 3, 2024. The long-awaited decision came after years of negotiations with Mauritian officials, involving 13 rounds of discussions, and was made amid intense debates and international pressure.

Diego Garcia and the other islands of the archipelago were discovered by the famous Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama in 1512 and remained uninhabited until the French began using the archipelago as a settlement for lepers and later, in the late 18th century, for coconut plantations worked by African slaves.

From 1715 to 1810, Chagos was part of the French overseas territories in the Indian Ocean, governed by the French colony of Isle de France which would later be renamed Mauritius. During the Napoleonic Wars (1803–1815), the British took control of these territories, and under the Paris Agreement of 1814, France ceded Isle de France along with the Chagos Archipelago to Britain.

The territory remained a British colony for over 150 years. In 1965, the UK promised to withdraw from Mauritius, but first it removed the Chagos Archipelago from the jurisdiction of Mauritius, paying the latter £3 million in compensation. Consequently, Mauritius gained independence in 1968 without Chagos, which was officially declared part of the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT) on November 8, 1965.

A military base in paradise

In 1966, despite the UN’s objections to British control over the archipelago, London leased Diego Garcia to the US for 50 years in exchange for a $14 million discount on the purchase of Polaris ballistic missile submarines. The island has an area of just about 27 sq km and the lagoon is surrounded by a narrow strip of surface coral reefs. It has the largest continuous atoll rim in the world – about 60km in length; the dryland rim has a maximum width of 2.4km, and at its highest point the island is 7 meters above sea level. With its coconut palms, it looks like paradise on earth.

At the time of the lease, in 1966, Diego Garcia had a population of fewer than 1,000 people, primarily contract workers tending to coconut plantations. However, by 1973, the residents of Diego Garcia, along with those from the entire Chagos Archipelago, were forcibly removed to Mauritius and the Seychelles to make way for the US military base. Since then, the Chagossians have been barred from returning home. Washington established a naval and air force base on Diego Garcia, jointly operated with the UK, housing around 4,000 American and British military personnel and civilians. In 2016, the US extended its lease for another 30 years.

Britain’s long resistance to decolonization

In October 2024, the UK finally decided to transfer the Chagos Islands – its only overseas territory located in the Indian Ocean – back to Mauritius. The decision followed intense negotiations and disputes at both local and international levels.

It all started in the 1990s when several Chagossians, exiled from their islands and holding British citizenship, filed lawsuits to assert their right to return home but were unsuccessful. In the early 2000s, around 4,500 Chagossian descendants living in the UK, Mauritius, and the Seychelles sought compensation but also met with failure. Meanwhile, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq only solidified Diego Garcia’s strategic importance as a launchpad for airstrikes carried out by the US and its allies.

In June 2017, the UN General Assembly passed resolution 71/292, requesting an advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice regarding the legality of the separation of the Chagos Archipelago from Mauritius in 1965. Based on the court’s findings, which called for the complete decolonization of Mauritius, the General Assembly demanded the unconditional withdrawal of British troops from the archipelago.

London rejected the ruling, but a few years later, on November 3, 2022, under international pressure, it announced the resumption of negotiations with Mauritius, ultimately leading to a joint statement on the transfer of the Chagos Islands, including Diego Garcia, back to Mauritius.

Military air base

The UK has fought to retain Diego Garcia, as the island plays a crucial military, strategic, and economic role in advancing its geopolitical interests in East Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian Ocean.

The joint US-UK military base, equipped with a runway, is used for positioning navy ships and long-range bombers. It is essential to American operations in the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf and played an active role during Operation Desert Storm (1991), Operation Enduring Freedom (2001–2021), and other operations in the Middle East.

Utilizing the base is significantly cheaper than deploying expensive aircraft carriers at sea and allows for a quicker response to external threats. Situated at the heart of Indian Ocean shipping routes, it allows the US and UK to oversee the transit of energy resources and goods between Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, while also serving as a tool against maritime piracy and terrorism.

Geostrategically, Diego Garcia is vital for the US and UK in their global competition with China, which established its own base in Djibouti in 2017. China is expanding its influence through the ambitious ‘One Belt One Road’ initiative which the Seychelles, Madagascar, and Comoros are part of. Mauritius, which remains an ally of the West, has not yet joined this initiative.

B-2 Spirit

Recent reports indicate that the US has deployed Northrop B-2 Spirit strategic bombers to Diego Garcia. The Wall Street Journal described the deployment as a warning to Iran and the Houthis, against whom Washington is conducting military operations in the Red Sea.

Six bombers, each valued at $1.1 billion, were sent to the region from the Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. This is nearly a third of the US Air Force’s fleet of flying wing aircraft. According to the Air Force Global Strike Command, the deployment is part of the Pentagon’s efforts “to deter, detect, and, if necessary, defeat strategic attacks against the United States and its allies.”

Threat to Iran

Given the current situation in the Middle East, there is speculation that the US might utilize the aircraft stationed at Diego Garcia for a potential nuclear strike on Iran. National Interest noted that by December 2024, the US had successfully completed a significant upgrade of the B61-12 nuclear warhead, which cost $9 billion. The modernized version is the latest iteration of the B61 since its introduction in 1968 at the height of the Cold War.

The recent enhancements effectively transform the “dumb” gravity bomb into a precision weapon with a circular probable deviation of just 30 meters. The B61-12 is certified for use on F-15E, F-16, F-35A, B-2 Spirit, and NATO’s Tornado aircraft.

Whether the B61-12 would specifically target alleged Iranian nuclear facilities remains uncertain. However, it is known that “support for nuclear-capable military platforms is a key function of Diego Garcia,” according to a report from the Lowy Institute. The likelihood of B61-12 warheads being temporarily stationed at Diego Garcia is quite high. Additionally, Diego Garcia is not subject to the African Nuclear-Weapon-Free-Zone Treaty (Pelindaba Treaty).

Iran’s response to the deployment of B-2 bombers at the Diego Garcia base has been quite firm. On March 29, The Telegraph, citing a senior Iranian military official, reported that Iran would not hesitate to strike the Diego Garcia joint US-British naval base in retaliation for any American attack on its territory.

“Iran possesses adequate weapons for such an attack from its mainland, such as newer versions of the Khorramshahr missile that have an intermediate range, and the Shahed-136B kamikaze drone with a range of 4,000 kilometers (2,485 miles),” the article stated, referencing Iranian media.

What about the Falklands?

Despite reaching an agreement to transfer the Chagos Archipelago to Mauritius, residents of the islands have little hope of returning to Diego Garcia – the most habitable island of the archipelago – from which they were expelled by the British in the 1970s during the construction of the military base. Under the terms of the deal, access to the island remains prohibited.

This agreement has also stirred controversy regarding other overseas territories of the UK. On October 3, 2024, the same day the deal with Mauritius was announced, Argentina urged Britain to return the Falkland Islands.

“We will restore full sovereignty over our Malvinas Islands through concrete actions, not empty rhetoric. The Malvinas were, are, and always will be Argentine,” stated Argentina’s foreign minister, Diana Mondino.

Argentine President Javier Milei has repeatedly emphasized the necessity of returning the Falkland Islands to Argentina. At the same time, discussions have emerged about Spain reclaiming Gibraltar. However, in early October 2024, the UK firmly stated that the sovereignty of both the Falkland Islands and Gibraltar is “non-negotiable” and that the agreement with Mauritius should not be seen as a precedent for other territorial disputes, as the Chagos Islands represent “a unique situation based on its unique history and circumstances.”

The situation with the Chagos Islands demonstrates the reluctance of Western powers to relinquish their colonial past, which allows them to maintain control over formerly dependent but currently sovereign nations. Losing control of the Chagos Islands would be too painful for the geostrategic ambitions of the UK and the US, which seek to uphold global hegemony at the expense of the interests of the native inhabitants of the formerly colonized states. Diego Garcia is a clear example of post-colonialism which is pulling the world back into an era of oppression, subjugation, and international inequality.

Unexplained Flaws in the Evidence for the NASA Moon Landings; and NASA’s Use of Augmented Virtual Reality Technology

By Reality Books

Given that a 2019 poll, conducted by YouGov, found that 29 percent of respondents 50 years old or younger expressed some belief that the U.S. government “faked the 1969 Apollo moon landing”,[1] this article will examine the decades old controversy surrounding NASA’s Apollo moon landings. Then we will dive a little deeper into the matrix of deception and illusion; and what may lie behind it. I explore:

  • some of the unexplained flaws in the evidence for the NASA moon landings;
  • methods, technologies and technical trickery that Hollywood uses to simulate space and zero-gravity in movies;
  • technical trickery and augmented virtual reality technology that space agencies, such as NASA, appear to have used to ‘fake’ space and zero-gravity, as well as live video feeds from the International Space Station (ISS);
  • augmented virtual-reality technology in which it becomes difficult to discern what is ‘real’ and what is actually computer-generated imagery (CGI), and the space agency’s contract with a company that produces advanced virtual reality simulation videos.

This article is largely based on the book Fake Moon Landings and the Lies of NASA.

NASA’s ‘Moon Landings’ – NASA Received $2400 Billion of US Taxpayers Money, but Say They ‘Lost’ All the Technology and Telemetry Data

The NASA missions to the moon reportedly cost the US government, and thus the American tax payer, in the region of $2400 billion, yet all NASA have to show for it apparently is some moon dust and a few small rocks that they claim came from the moon. That is a lot of money to obtain a few rocks. They also tell us that “All the moon rocks were stolen including the safe they were in” at NASA Headquarters. Following Freedom of Information requests in America NASA admitted it had lost original video footage, voice data, bio-medical monitoring data, and telemetry data to monitor the location and functioning of the spaceship, and original plans/blueprints for the lunar modules, space suits and lunar rovers, and for the entire multi-sectioned Saturn V rockets[2]. They lost ‘all’ the alleged record of the moon landings, including 13,000 reels that are said to be ‘missing’! Is it any wonder that over the past decades there has been a growing consensus that NASA faked the Apollo moon missions in the 1960’s – that it was only a hyped-up TV show.

“over 700 boxes of magnetic data tapes recorded throughout the Apollo program that have not been found… On August 16, 2006, NASA announced its official search, saying, “… NASA engineers are hopeful that when the tapes are found they can use today’s digital technology to provide a version of the moonwalk that is much better quality than what we have today.” – Wikipedia[3].

Shadows on the Moon Pointing in Different Directions

From an analytical standpoint, let’s examine photographic anomalies in the NASA photos of the astronauts on the moon. These anomalies have to be analysed with an understanding of lighting and shadow.

When objects are lit solely by the sun as all the scenes on the moon were said to be, then all shadows regardless of the landscape will run parallel to each other. However, in the above photos of the moon landings obtained from a NASA archival site, the shadows point in different directions, proving that there were two different lighting sources – it is clear the scenes were lit with artificial light. One of the shadows is of the astronaut; and the other shadow appears to be of a pole. There are additional examples of this mistake by NASA. The argument that shadows can point in differing directions in uneven terrain does not explain the significant differences observed.

NASA brought 3 lunar vehicles to the moon, but never brought a telescope to view and photograph the Earth.

Furthermore, you would think the view of the stars would be magnificent from the moon, yet, there are no stars in any of the pictures or video footage from the moon – ever. When asked about the stars at the NASA post-flight press conference it was the only question to which Armstrong responded with an absence of memory. Furthermore, we are led to believe that over the course of several missions to the moon NASA brought three lunar vehicles that cost $60 million dollars each, but never brought a single telescopic telescope to view and photograph the stars or the Earth.

In addition, there is the anomaly in the NASA video footage of the US flag blowing the wind, twice, on the ‘atmosphere-less’ moon. In addition, when the footage of the astronauts walking and jumping along on the moon is doubled in speed, it is clear that they are walking in Earth gravity and are no more leaving the ground than they would on Earth. There are numerous documentaries exposing these, and other anomalies. Furthermore, how did the moon buggy fit inside the spaceship? and why was there no blast crater under the lander module. The reality is that, there is way more evidence to support the assertion that NASA never went to the moon than vice-versa.

Science or Science Fiction?

The following is an apt extract from an article title The Apollo Moon Landings are Science Fiction, published on March 8th, 2022[4].

“Since the alleged moon landings [until 2022], no country even claims to have gone more than 400 miles from Earth and that was in the Space Shuttle… There is a big difference between 240,000 miles and 400 miles. Why can’t anyone make it more than 400 miles from Earth today if we could make a 480,000 mile round trip in 1969?

NASA further asserts that three men were loaded into a rocket, flew 240,000 miles to the moon… and they then hung out on the moon for up to three days in 250-degree heat, hit golf balls, rode a moon buggy – but what powered their life support and equipment? They say BATTERIES.

They then supposedly blasted off the surface of the moon, docked with the third man going around the moon at over 4000 miles per hour, and made it 240,000 miles back to Earth. They re-entered Earth’s atmosphere going 25,000 mph, but parachutes assured a safe landing in the ocean. We hope you will agree that… proves the absurdity of NASA’s claim in a clear and convincing fashion.”

NASA Astronauts Are Walking in Earth Gravity – The Video Speed Appears to Have Been Slowed and Adjusted

An independent researcher produced comprehensive video analysis[5] in which the slow motion movement of the astronauts on the Moon is examined in detail, as well as many other mysterious and questionable aspects of the footage of the Apollo Moon mission. This includes analysis of sand falling from the astronaut’s hands during the Apollo experiments. He had the following to say:

“I measured the speed of falling objects… in the Apollo television footage… And, based on my evaluation for how the footage was captured and altered into slow-motion, the measurements are precisely consistent with Earth gravity. My measurements are reproduce-able by independent scientists, and I give clear reference to the source footage so that this can be done with the least amount of effort.”

Another independent researcher stated:

 

“The Apollo “astronauts” appear to move as if underwater, walking along the sea floor. All in slow motion. Even when they jump upwards it’s all shown in slow motion. But there is no scientific basis for this. There is no reason that someone walking or moving on a low gravity planet or moon would be moving in slow motion like this. At least not while jumping upwards. What would slow them down? They are supposedly moving in a low gravity, no atmosphere environment. What is there to slow them down? … The problem is that free falling objects in low gravity would move more slowly than on earth but other motions would move at normal or perhaps even faster-than-normal speed. This must have presented a technological nightmare for a 1960s film maker.

So, the probable solution was to create and release a major motion picture just prior to Apollo 11 showing men in space and on the moon, all moving in slow motion and tell the public that this is the most technologically accurate movie ever made about space travel. They would even include a short scene showing men walking on the moon, also in slow motion of course… That movie, of course, was 2001: A Space Odyssey.”

NASA Even Admit that All NASA’s Pictures of the Earth Are CGI Composites

Furthermore, incredibly, it appears that all pictures of the Earth, supposedly taken from outer space by NASA, are actually CGI (Computer Generated Image) composites. NASA even admits on its website that the NASA pictures of the globe earth are composite computer-generated images, i.e., composites of multiple images they claim are taken by satellites or (they claim) by the international space station.

See the NASA images of the Earth[6], these images are clearly computer generated. We are expected to believe that NASA can send probes with high-definition cameras to take pictures of Jupiter, Mars, Saturn etc., but they cannot turn the camera around to take one full shot of Earth? The following text is quoted from the NASA website:

“Image composites are the fusing of several images together taken in an overlapping sequence. The images in this collection feature several composites from the International Space Station taken of various beautiful features around the Earth. The green markers on the map indicate the locations of all of the composites listed in this collection, and the dropdown menu below also showcases all of the image composites available.” – NASA[7]

“The new image is a composite of six separate orbits taken on Jan. 23, 2012 by the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite. Both of these new ‘Blue Marble’ images are images taken by a new instrument flying aboard Suomi NPP, the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS).” – NASA[8]

During my research I was not able to find a single picture of the ‘whole’ earth as a globe that was not a CGI composite, or subject to tampering, i.e., there is no ‘actual’ single picture of the whole Earth taken from ‘space’.  Surely with the NASA moon missions and claimed launches of probes into ‘deep space’ there should be hundreds of such pictures.

NASA’s Earthrise Photos – Claims of Photographic Tampering

The famous ‘Earthrise’ photos, which claim to show the Earth rising above the moon’s horizon were allegedly taken during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. The official NASA website blurb states: “Taken aboard Apollo 8 by Bill Anders, this iconic picture shows Earth peeking out from beyond the lunar surface as the first crewed spacecraft circumnavigated the Moon.”[9]. However, various researchers and photographic experts have provided evidence that the NASA photos have been tampered with[10]. These analyses show telltale marks where parts of a photo were copied from another source and pasted in, where parts of a photo have been reworked, and where a globe-shaped earth has been pasted into the photo.

When the decades old pictures from the NASA archive are viewed with modern picture editing tools artifacts appear in pictures. Artifacts appear when pictures have been edited and tampered with. I also note that in a video presentation[11], an independent researcher Nimāi Nitāi dāsa showed the evidence of these artifacts in the NASA pictures. In the example below we can clearly see the editing artifacts with different shading showing that earthrise image has been cut from another source and pasted into the picture!

Dr David Martin: “WHO Was Founded by the Cartel as a Criminal Organization

Peter Koenig

The World Health Assembly (WHA) is now meeting in Geneva (19–27 May 2025) to, once again, discuss, dispute, push, modify, trick, and finally cheat the “Pandemic Treaty” through a majority of the Assembly vote. All this happened without any transparency, partially behind closed doors. The world’s globalist mandate: it MUST pass, come hell or high water.

Because – let us state this from the start – the globalist cabals objective number one of the infamous UN Agenda 2030 has been and still is a massive reduction of the world’s population. This was expressed already in the Club of Rome’s “Limits to Growth” (1972), and repeated in 2022 by the chief-author of this book Dennis Meadows – see this video clip (about 2/3 down the article).

Watch on X

And what better executing agency than WHO – a public health organization that never was designed to protect public health, rather to decide who must die and who may live; a eugenist organization created by one of the key eugenists, David Rockefeller (1915 – 2017), and financially supported by another major eugenist, Bill Gates.

On Monday night, 20 May 2025, the WHA with 135 members present, 124 (less than 2/3 of the total members (194)) voted for the Pandemic Treaty, 11 abstentions and zero opposition. It is likely that all those who were against the treaty were told to leave the room before the vote. So, the vote looks more genuine.

Since the ballot happened without any transparency, it cannot be discounted that some members were coerced / incited to vote “yes”, with promises of receiving “health funds” from WHO or Bill Gates.

See also this euphoric report.

There was certainly no discussion on the vote, but rather in a desperate attempt to “win” this lost case, those who may have been hesitant were shown the door to the room.

WHO could not allow another defeat – lest its reputation and credibility (does it have any left?) was even more at stake than before. So, WHO claims the treaty was sealed.

However, what was really approved is a heavily watered-down version of the original text. The current version is far from the tyrannical original version, which would have seriously violated the member countries’ sovereignty. This would too, but it has an open range for each country to approve with their own legislation, whether or not they want to adopt the WHO treaty, i.e., the WHO dictatorship.

Watch on Facebook

Having said this as an opener, it is opportune to listen to Dr. David Martin’s assessment, that “WHO Was Founded by the Cartel as a Criminal Organization.” David Martin explains that a

“very small group of Industrial Criminal Conspirators decided to subordinate the entirety of the human population for the purpose of their sinister plans to enrich themselves while impoverishing and killing the rest of humanity.”

The WHO was founded in April 1948, four years after the UN body and its specialized agencies. WHO is supposed to be one of these specialized agencies, but it is not. It was created by the Rockefeller clan and then implanted into the UN System – by a “big flow of money” mostly from Bill Gates and Rockefeller. After all, Rockefeller donated the land in Manhattan, where the UN HQ is built on.

David Martin unambiguously reiterates that WHO was never meant to be a public health organization to protect the world’s public at large from diseases, deadly and otherwise. Instead, among a variety of scientific health-related studies, it was designed as a privately-funded entity, focusing on testing health (and death) remedies, especially vaccines on small and adolescent children, to measure the jabs’ impact – and then study them for “gain of function”.

Not by coincidence, Article 4, Section 11(a) of the UN Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations, states that UN [WHO] employes are exempt from paying taxes and grants then Immunity from personal arrest or detention and from seizure of their personal baggage. (see this).

Referring to the WHO-invented Covid and the coerced upon the world population so-called Covid “vaccines”, Dr. Martin says,

“We did not have a Pandemic, we had Genocide.”

David Martin concludes,

“If they did not intend to commit crimes, why would they have to give themselves absolute and permanent Immunity from every form of prosecution and even worse, Investigation for Prosecution?”

COVID Vaccine “Safe and Effective” Narrative Collapses on Camera

The “safe and effective” narrative collapsed on camera during Senator Ron Johnson’s explosive Senate hearing on COVID-19 vaccine injuries Wednesday afternoon.

Senator Ron Johnson brought the receipts, exposing how the Biden administration DELIBERATELY hid vaccine harms from the public.

Then Dr. James Thorp (OB-GYN) revealed miscarriage data so disturbing, it left the room silent.

This is the Senate hearing they never wanted you to see. I turned three hours of footage into a five-minute read.

Senator Ron Johnson opened the hearing with a bombshell: the Biden administration knew about deadly heart risks tied to the COVID shots, and deliberately kept it from the public.

Johnson released newly subpoenaed records exposing a detailed timeline of what officials knew and when. While Pfizer and Moderna received insider updates, doctors and citizens who raised concerns were silenced.

In February 2021, Israeli health officials warned the CDC of “large reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people” following Pfizer injections, just two and a half months after the vaccine received emergency use authorization.

By April, the CDC was already reviewing myocarditis data from Israel and the Department of Defense. But instead of alerting the public, they stayed quiet.

By the end of that month, VAERS had recorded 2,926 deaths, nearly half of which occurred within three days of injection. “Somebody ought to be looking at it,” Johnson said.

In May, the CDC considered issuing a formal health alert—but scrapped it. They replaced it with watered-down guidance that removed a key warning for doctors to restrict physical activity in myocarditis patients.

Francis Collins, then director of the NIH, brushed it all off. “Senator, people die,” he told Johnson.

In just six months, the toll was staggering: 384,270 reports of adverse events, 4,812 deaths, and 1,736 of those occurred within just 48 hours of injection.

Dr. Peter McCullough then took the floor and upended the narrative that vaccine-induced myocarditis is “rare.”

Before COVID, McCullough had seen just two myocarditis cases in his entire career. After the rollout, everything changed.

He says he’s now “examined thousands of patients with this problem.”

“There’s 1,065 papers in the peer-reviewed literature on COVID vaccine myocarditis,” he explained, pointing to a 2021 case published in the New England Journal of Medicine. A 42-year-old man developed vaccine-induced myocarditis. “The infection is ruled out,” McCullough said. “It’s the vaccine.” Three days after his Moderna shot, the man was dead.

McCullough cited a shocking case from Korea—a young man who died within eight hours of hospitalization after a Pfizer shot. His heart had been, in McCullough’s words, “fried with inflammation.”

Then came a case from Connecticut: two teenage boys, 16 and 17, died in their sleep just days after Pfizer. Their parents found them unresponsive.

“These cases… should have gotten everyone’s attention,” McCullough said. “We should never have someone die after taking a vaccine that’s directly caused to the vaccine.”

Alabama-based physician Dr. Jordan Vaughn followed up with a chilling estimate—up to 15 million Americans may be suffering from long COVID or COVID vaccine injuries.

He now treats teenagers who can’t stand up and previously healthy adults who are suffering strokes with no clear cause.

According to Vaughn, the spike protein’s S1 subunit is far from harmless. “It triggers inflammation, it disrupts endothelial barriers, it induces fibrin resistant to breakdown, and it promotes a lot of amyloid aggregates,” he said.

These effects impair oxygen delivery, damage blood vessels, and trigger a wave of symptoms—racing heart, brain fog, shortness of breath, and post-exertional crashes.

In his clinic, Vaughn uses immunofluorescent microscopy to detect the spike protein’s damage, showing up in patients who were once thriving.

He warned that the mRNA injections led to uncontrolled spike protein production, which spread throughout the body, reaching the heart, brain, ovaries, and testes.

Regulators claimed the vaccine stayed in the arm. That was a lie. A Yale study now shows some people are still producing spike protein more than 700 days after their last injection.

We didn’t just inject people. We turned them into spike protein factories.

OB-GYN Dr. James Thorp delivered one of the most haunting moments of the hearing.

He said the COVID shots “MIRRORED” the effects of chemical abortion drugs—and the government knew what it was doing.

Dr. Thorp pointed to the now-infamous Shimabukuro study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, which claimed a 12.6% miscarriage rate following COVID vaccination.

But when you isolate the data for women vaccinated in the first trimester, the miscarriage rate rises to 82%, Dr. Thorp said. This 82% claim remains a topic of debate within the scientific community.

If true, “This figure mirrors the effects of chemical abort drugs,” Dr. Thorp lamented.

He added, “Recently, animal studies revealed the mRNA COVID vaccine causes the destruction of 60 PERCENT of the ovarian reserve in rats.”

If that effect translates to humans, it could be a catastrophic blow to fertility and the future of entire generations.

Dr. Thorp said pregnant women were deliberately targeted, and their unborn children paid the price.

“This must stop now,” he said.

Attorney Aaron Siri then delivered a little-known history lesson on vaccine liability.

“For every product on the market, you can SUE the manufacturer for harm,” Siri said. “There’s only ONE product in America you CANNOT sue the manufacturer to claim it could have been made safer—and that’s VACCINES.”

He explained how the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act gave pharmaceutical companies sweeping immunity, not just for three vaccines, but for every new childhood shot added to the CDC schedule.

The result? A schedule that exploded from 3 shots to 29 in the first year of life, with zero accountability.

“They don’t have the financial incentive to make them safer,” Siri said. “In fact, they have the disincentive.”

Senator Ron Johnson confronted Hawaii Gov. Josh Green, who was defending the COVID jabs at the hearing.

I could fill this room with photos of people who are DEAD because of the COVID injection,” Johnson said. “I could fill the room,” he reiterated.

He made the comment after calling out how the vaccine-injured are still being ignored, gaslit, and denied care.

Johnson pointed to VAERS data showing 38,607 reported deaths after the shot, 9,228 of them within two days.

Multiply that by a conservative underreporting factor of 10, and the death toll climbs to over 386,000.

Dr. Peter McCullough delivered one of the most powerful moments of the hearing.

Senator Blumenthal had previously claimed the COVID vaccines “saved three million lives.”

Dr. McCullough quickly dismantled that false narrative. He delivered a three-part reality check on what actually brought COVID deaths down:

1. Natural immunity did the heavy lifting.

2. Early treatment kept people out of hospitals.

3. The virus mutated into a milder form.

“The vaccine cannot be falsely credited with saving millions of lives,” McCullough said.

“We can’t allow false drug advertising to be put up on a poster behind one of our public servants. We cannot accept that.”

Sen. Ron Johnson delivered another crushing blow to the “safe and effective” narrative—this time with a devastating chart that exposed that lie.

The chart showed that one of the biggest spikes in COVID cases and deaths occurred AFTER the vaccine rollout began in December 2020.

By mid-2021, over half the U.S. was “fully vaccinated.” But instead of improving, the numbers got worse.

If the vaccine had worked, cases and deaths would have dropped. They didn’t—and this chart makes that impossible to ignore.

Sensing the narrative was slipping, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut) scrambled to defend public health officials.

He became visibly agitated at the suggestion that vaccine risks had been covered up.

“I may be sounding a little bit like a lawyer, not a physician, but purposeful concealment, intentional hiding, is essentially undocumented by the evidence released by this report itself,” Blumenthal said.

He brushed off the myocarditis concerns as “rare” and insisted that officials like Rochelle Walensky took “multiple steps” to warn the public.

So his message quietly shifted from “safe and effective” to “We did our best with what we knew at the time,” a clear sign that the vaccine narrative is running out of ground to stand on.

Vaccine-injured physician Dr. Joel Wallskog captured the pain of the vaccine-injured better than anyone.

“If I could describe one word that I think all, if not most, vaccine-injured will say… it’s ABANDONMENT.”

He explained how people like him have been attacked from both sides.

“The right says we’re stupid… the left calls us anti-vaxxers, which is one of the most ignorant things to say.”

He reminded the room that he was injured because he got vaccinated.

Dr. Wallskog and vaccine-injured associate Brianne Dressen met multiple times with FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks over two years.

“We have been placated, we have been blown off,” he said. “He thanks us, he says he’ll get back to us… he never does.”

Dr. Wallskog added that the idea that federal agencies are trying to help is “the farthest from the truth.”

Dr. McCullough closed the hearing with a final truth bomb.

“You’ve asked for us to cite evidence,” Dr. McCullough began.

He pointed to three papers by Nathaniel Mead, a former National Institutes of Health writer sitting in the audience. Together, they contain nearly 1,000 references—and they all reach the same conclusion:

“The risks of COVID-19 vaccination far outweigh any theoretical benefits.”

Dr. McCullough then dismantled the narrative pushed by Gov. Josh Green and Sen. Richard Blumenthal, calling their claims that the vaccines saved lives and reduced the severity of disease as nothing more than “wishful thinking.”

“I don’t want America to be fooled by this hearing today thinking that the vaccines saved lives—because they didn’t,” Dr. McCullough said.

The COVID vaccine narrative they sold to the public is collapsing right before our eyes.

Congressional Report: Biden Officials Hid Deadly Risks of Covid Vaccine

The Biden administration has been accused of purposefully covering up potentially deadly side effects of the Covid vaccines

Cassidy Morrison

The Biden administration has been accused of purposefully covering up potentially deadly side effects of the Covid vaccines.

A Congressional investigation found White House officials held back warnings about heart damage from Covid vaccines in younger people, even after getting early alerts from other countries, including Israel.

Internal emails and memos suggest a planned Health Alert Network (HAN) message by the CDC regarding myocarditis – inflammation of the heart muscle – was not released.

Drafts of this alert reportedly downplayed risks, emphasizing vaccine benefits over potential adverse events, according to the report.

Emails indicate FDA officials, including then-Commissioner Janet Woodcock, expressed reservations about the language in the proposed HAN, leading to its suppression.

The Biden administration, the report alleges, gave former top infectious disease expert Dr Anthony Fauci talking points to downplay the myocarditis risk, instructing them to say that the reported cases ‘have been mild and often go away without requiring treatment.’

As of now, there is no definitive count of deaths in the US directly attributed to myocarditis caused by Covid vaccines.

Some argue that America’s fragmented healthcare system means rare complications from Covid vaccines have been underreported.

The Biden administration has been accused of purposefully covering up potentially deadly side effects of the Covid vaccines

[…]

The new probe was led by Sen Ron Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican, and chair of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations.

Johnson, known for his critical stance on Covid vaccine policies, said: ‘I think we finally got enough documents to certainly demonstrate in this case… that the federal government was well aware of myocarditis.’

Internal emails revealed by the committee show the CDC drafted a nationwide Health Alert Network (HAN) warning in May 2021 but it was scrapped when faced with pushback at the FDA, with Woodcock emailing then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky that the agency ‘does not concur’ with the decision to issue the warning.

‘The same day, they decided to nix it and instead publish less formal clinical myocarditis considerations on the CDC website,’ Sen Johnson said.

The CDC, according to the report removed critical language from public advice, including a recommendation from Dr Demetre Daskalakis—then-Director of the Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention, to restrict athletes with myocarditis from sports for three months.

The report also slams the former administration for apparently prioritizing Big Pharma over public health, showing federal agencies were in contact with Moderna and Pfizer about reports of the heart condition.

The above graph shows the risk of suffering myocarditis by doses, based on people under 40 years old and up to seven days after getting their vaccine, according to a 2022 study. Risk was highest after the second dose

On May 28, 2021, the CDC published updated guidance acknowledging a rise in myocarditis and pericarditis cases following mRNA Covid vaccination (Pfizer and Moderna).

However, the agency maintained its recommendation for everyone 12 and up to get vaccinated.

The public guidance omitted a key safety precaution that had been discussed internally just one day earlier – specifically avoiding strenuous activity for recovering patients – which Dr Daskalakis had highlighted as important for inclusion.

Internal minutes from a June meeting of the Vaccine Safety Technical (VaST) Work Group show scientists upgraded myocarditis risk language from ‘potential’ to ‘likely association’ with mRNA vaccines for young people—language later used in the final presentation to the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices that June.

The combined effort to obscure safety concerns about the new Covid vaccines, according to Republicans, undermined Americans’ health and safety.

The committee alleges that two months after the Covid vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna were granted authorization from the FDA, it began monitoring an uptick in cases of myocarditis in young men aged 16 to 30 in Israel and communicating with health officials there.

The US agencies were alerted to ‘large reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people’ in Israel on February 28. A few days later, US representatives wrote back, acknowledging around 27 cases, though they acknowledged that the risk of getting the condition was low.

A few weeks after Israeli officials presented shocking data at the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Technical Group, the agency prepared a national warning about the heart inflammation risk through its Health Alert Network (HAN).

A Congressional investigation found White House officials held back warnings about heart damage from Covid vaccines in younger people, even after getting early alerts from other countries, including Israel

This system is how the CDC quickly shares important health warnings with doctors, public health officials, and medical labs across the country..

Meanwhile, the report reveals CDC officials privately briefed Pfizer and Moderna about the potential myocarditis warning while keeping the American public in the dark.

All the while, vaccine makers were making billions. Total sales of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine surpassed $80 billion and those for Moderna exceeded 36 billion.

Despite the VaST work group’s consensus by May 17, 2021, that providers needed myocarditis warnings, leadership stalled until late June – a critical six-week gap when millions of young Americans received doses without this safety context.

According to the report: ‘Given that CDC officials were aware of the growing risk of myocarditis coupled with the lack of nationwide reporting about it, it would make the issuance of the HAN not only useful, but extremely necessary.

‘However, CDC officials ultimately decided against the formal HAN message on myocarditis, potentially leaving the public and health care providers less informed about the cardiac-related risks of the COVID-19 vaccines.’

The side effect is rare, but exactly how rare is still being debated. A major 2021 study in Israel put the rate at one in 50,000. Other studies have come to vastly different estimates.

While most cases are mild, in rare instances, myocarditis can damage the heart and make it difficult for it to pump blood, eventually leading to heart failure, heart attack, and stroke.

The report slams the former administration for apparently prioritizing Big Pharma over public health

The CDC’s voluntary side effect reporting database VAERS, has logged over 1,600 cases of myocarditis in the US, primarily in young men 12 to 29, after they received a Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, which relies on mRNA technology to teach the immune system how to fight Covid.

The report suggests the actual number is likely higher due to VAERS’s passive surveillance system missing cases.

The Nightmare of Jerusalem Part VI – The Birth of Hezbollah in Lebanon

The Nightmare of Jerusalem Part VI

Press TV (2025)

Film Review

This episode mainly concerns the Shia Amal movement in Lebanon, which ultimately evolved into Hezbollah. The Iranian lawyer Musa al-Sadr emigrated to Lebanon in 1974, where he founded Amal movement to assist Shia Muslims who were being persecuted (and massacred) by Israeli-supported right wing Christian Phalangists. The tremendous military success of Amal inspired Palestine’s first Intifada in 1987.

In February 1961, the head of Savak (Iran’s secret police) Temur Baktiar met with JFK to discuss his concerns about the Shah’s corruption. The latter responded by firing and exiling him. Baktiar, who visited West Germany and Italy speaking out against the Palavi regime’s corruption, also settled in Lebanon, where he lent his support to the Amal movement. After the Lebanese government arrested him, he narrowly avoided extradition to Iran, he was eventually assassinated by Savak agents in Iraq.

Israel’s 1978 Yum Kippur war was followed by increased protest activity by Palestinian refugee groups in Lebanon. They were being monitored both by the Mossad and Savak. The latter engaged in paramilitary activities in Lebanon, to prevent the Palestinian refugees from joining with Amal movement in a broader anti-Israel Arab alliance.

The main reason for Israel’s 1982 invasion of Lebanon was the growing strength of Amal. After Israel occupied the predominantly Shia areas of South Lebanon, displacing hundreds of thousands of Shia Lebanese, Iran deployed a military platoon to Lebanon to defend the country’s Shia residents.

In August 1982 American marines and French troops deployed to Lebanon to support the Phalangists.

On November 16, 1982 Phalangists and Israelis disguised as Phalangists undertook a massacre of Palestinian refugees and Shia Muslims in Lebanon’s refugee camps. Between 700-3500 bodies were found. Because the bodies were dismembered and burned an exact count was impossible.

At this point all Lebanese Shia unified to form a militia (later known as Hezbollah) to defend Palestinian refugees and Lebanese Shia from the Zionists, Phalangists, French and Americans.
