This week, I appeared on interviews with Mario Nawfal and Coffee and a Mike. First, Mario and I discussed the escalating situation in the Middle East, including strikes on Iranian and Russian energy infrastructure, disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, unusual oil market behavior and paper price manipulation, sulfur shortages and their industrial impacts, and the broader risks of economic shocks from these conflicts. Second, Dave Collum, Mike Farris, and I discussed the Tyler Robinson story as a major Rorschach test exposing inconsistencies and narrative control, widespread institutional distrust post-2020, vaccine skepticism, fifth-generation warfare dynamics, and the need for personal resilience amid geopolitical and economic uncertainty. Both interviews can be viewed below!
One thing really got me about this discussion. A lot of people in the CIA are sophisticated in terms of science. They have to be. So many of them mustâve known that no one had ever developed an effective vaccine against a coronavirus. Coronaviruses are fast mutators. So you cannot make an effective vaccine against a coronavirus since it just mutates its way around the vaccine. That, of course, is exactly what eventually happened. It was predictable. And the mRNA injections did not change that. So the CIA mustâve known all that all along. So doing counterterrorism investigations against CIA officers who refused the injections makes no sense.
And even though itâs not written in the constitution, the CIA is an equal branch of government. Just ask Chuck Schumer. So the CIA couldâve simply refused and no one couldâve stopped them.
During the discussion, the great Dave Collum rightly observes that âThe Nation State Model doesnât work.â
What does the fact that âThe Nation State Model No Longer Worksâ do to the Study of War and âWar Studiesâ generally, since traditionally âWarâ has been between Tribes and between Nation States?
Here, I have no doubt that the Pentagon and others for the decades have devoted considerable brain power to studying War and that they have developed a deep corpus of War Studies literature, even if Grok demurs.
Ask young men to go fight for an entirely new Category of War in the War Taxonomy called âOstensible Warâ?
âThe word ostensible describes something that is stated, claimed, or appears to be true on the surface, but may not be the actual reality. It highlights a discrepancy between an openly declared reason or aim and the hidden truth.â
The architecture gets corrupted and hollowed out, and everyone pretends that what they erroneously learned in school still exists. When confronted with Reality they get MAD which further intensifies the hollowing out process?
Speaking of kayfabe, itâs clear that Pauline Hanson, potential future PM of Australia is participating. Theyâre giving her a full, pro-Israel redemption arc, with plenty of airtime and hostile media. Sheâs the outlet for the populist anger over here. I think theyâll even let her fix the immigration problem here. But something is very wrong. Not that I wonât take it - Iâll grab that solution to immigration with both hands. But sheâs been fighting the good fight for many decades, and then she takes an Israeli flag into parliament and all of a sudden, her party rises from single digit popularity and vaults over our traditional party of the right.
Either thereâs a massive Overton window shift and huge herd behavior, or⌠some strings were pulled. To be fair, Gina Rineheart seems to have flipped over, so maybe she owns some strings?
Australia is a big supplier of commodities to China and has been on board with replacement migration - this is the monetary (private central bank) tied Multipolarist (I have been refering to them as Harmonizers) preferred outcome for Australia.
For the U.S. dollar system, Australia is useful as a commodity supplier to Phillipines, South Korea, Japan and any other nations integrated into U.S. military gear and protocols and being prepared to establish âtensionâ with China.
The shift to a âpro-Israelâ Australian leadership reflects a more US dollar- and US government-centric alignment.
I suspect that it was a sort of loyalty test for the rank-and-file. Might lose a few percent of them, have a few more percent retire out early due to heart problems, but for the remaining 80-90% theyâd now know will follow orders. Programmable, even.
Iâve been watching though for a few former SESers from various agencies to leak out that they werenât required to receive vaccines or were publicly given saline shots âto encourage morale.â So far, nothing.
There are days when I lean towards a conspiracy at the top, and days when I think itâs all just murmurations. The truth is probably a little of the former and a lot of the latter.
It was a self identification mechanism to weed out the ethical thinkers in all the institutions, medicine, law, police, media etc etc ..and it worked a treat. They now know they have âreliableâ order followers in all those places.
FWIW, Dave Collum was on Tommy Carriganâs podcast last week, discussing the misdeeds of the pharma industry and his wifeâs ongoing health challenges. And by âchallengesâ I mean âhorrific life-threatening side effects of pharma misdeeds.â link: Malicious | Dave Collum (TPC #2,094)
If the thinkers all managed to band together, I suspect we have more total competence than the order followers. Itâs just they have more coherence, since they follow blindly.
Iâm reminded of the situation in Singapore, where theyâre unable to employ native Singaporians in the management of all the multinationals there - itâs always white ex-pats, in spite of massive government incentives to use Singaporians. The reason is initiative - the Singaporians are smart, hard-working, often loyal - but always need to be told what to do.
