Iranian Drones


Armstrong Economics Blog/War Re-Posted Oct 21, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

The western alliance is not the only one providing military training. Iran has sent military members to Crimea to train Russian troops. Specifically, they are training them to use Iranian drones. There were reports of Russian troops visiting Iran in August to learn how to operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Since then, there have been numerous reports of UAVs failing, but the successfully deployed UAVs are capable of causing serious damage.

Shaheds, also known as kamikaze or suicide drones, explode on impact and are capable of also carrying missiles. This drone is less expensive to develop, but it can travel up to 1,000 miles and leave a range of destruction in its path. Mohajer-6 UAVs can be used for spying purposes and can, of course, also hold a missile. Ukraine claims that they have shot down at least 200 drones and have the capability to jam radars.

Both Russia and Iran have denied trading weapons, but what do they have to lose now that all the cards are on the table? Russia has violated the UN Security Council Resolution 2231 by transferring arms from Iran. The West has already sanctioned Russia in every way possible. Numerous nations are placing sanctions on Iran now, but again, they are not too concerned. Tehran and Moscow, two nuclear powers, are strengthening their relationship and seem prepared to face any Western consequences while resuming trade.

CDC Votes Unanimously to Include Experimental COVID-19 Vaccine in Their Recommended Pediatric Immunization Schedule


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 20, 2022 | Sundance 

Unbelievable and infuriating at the same time.  The CDC voted unanimously today (15-0) to include the emergency use authorized mRNA vaccine as part of the childhood immunization schedule, effectively forcing most school aged children to undergo a COVID shot as part of the state requirement to attend school.

(Via Politico) The CDC’s independent vaccine advisers voted 15-0 Thursday to add most Covid-19 vaccines offered in the U.S. to the childhood, adolescent and adult immunization schedules.

The immunization schedules, which are updated every fall before going into effect the following year, consolidate all of the CDC’s vaccine recommendations in one document for states that use them as guidance for school entry requirements and busy physicians. The additions formalize recommendations the CDC has already made on Covid vaccination in individuals ages 6 months and older for shots that the FDA has approved or has authorized for emergency use.

Covid vaccines’ inclusion on the schedules don’t constitute mandates, particularly for schoolchildren, which are the purview of states, localities or jurisdictions, depending on local laws. Still, the committee’s vote sparked controversy and debate on social media about what the additions mean for vaccine requirements after Fox News’ Tucker Carlson asserted Tuesday that the CDC would trigger mandates for students.

“This doesn’t represent new recommendations. This represents sort of a summary of existing recommendations,” said advisory panel member Matthew Daley, a senior investigator at the Institute for Health Research at Kaiser Permanente Colorado. “But I will acknowledge … there is symbolism in adding Covid-19 to the childhood immunization schedule, and that symbolism is that we view this as routine and that we view this as Covid is here to stay.”

The FDA has approved two messenger-RNA vaccines targeting Covid: The Pfizer-BioNTech primary series vaccine for people 12 and older and the Moderna primary series for adults 18 and older. They’re each authorized for emergency use for children as young as 6 months, and all booster doses — including new formulations designed to target the original coronavirus strain and two Omicron subvariants — are authorized for emergency use.

Australia to Pay Funeral Expenses of Those Who DIED From Mandatory Vaccine

Australia imposed some of the harshest lockdown laws in the world. They built quarantine camps and forcibly imprisoned citizens. They mandated the “safe and effective” vaccine – and now, they are offering to cover the funeral expenses of those who have died from the jab.

This is not a parody. The Australian Government has implemented a claims scheme to enable eligible claimants who have received a TGA-approved COVID-19 vaccine to obtain compensation for recognised [sic] moderate to severe vaccine-related adverse events,” the Department of Health and Aged Care said, as if the people should thank them for murdering their loved ones and protecting the killer who they enabled.

To be eligible you need to have met all of the following:
  • received a Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved COVID-19 vaccine
  • met the definition of harm, like one of the clinical conditions listed in the policy
  • been admitted to hospital as an inpatient because of the harm you suffered or seek a waiver
  • losses or expenses of $1,000 or more, excluding pain and suffering, due to the COVID-19 vaccination.

They even have different criteria for “harm” based on which deadly vaccine the victim took.

If you had AstraZeneca Vaxzeria, the following clinical conditions are accepted under the scheme:
  • Anaphylactic reaction
  • Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome
  • Capillary leak syndrome
  • Demyelinating disorders including Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS)
  • Thrombocytopenia, including immune Thrombocytopenia.
If you’ve had Pfizer/Biontech Comirnaty or Moderna Spikevax, the following clinical conditions are accepted under the scheme:
  • Anaphylactic reaction
  • Myocarditis
  • Pericarditis.
If you had Novavax Nuvaxovid, the clinical condition of anaphylactic reaction is accepted under the scheme.

Then the government goes into detail about how to calculate the cost of a funeral. These guidelines paint the Australian government as a cold and heartless dystopian entity. Also, good luck finding a doctor who will help you file a claim. One criteria is that the victim needed to be admitted to the hospital. If they were not admitted (say, they dropped dead from a heart attack), then the doctor must file a claim on their behalf. Secondary injuries such as fainting or hematoma are not covered. They made a point to note that psychological injuries and not covered as well, despite the rise in suicides that occurred. Dying from COVID itself is not covered, although they claimed that the vaccine would keep everyone safe from harm.

The government killed its own citizens without apology or remorse.

Biden Has Ensured the Fall of the USA

QUESTION: Marty, do you think that electric cars should be avoided? What do you see for the future? Biden looks like he has undermined Israel all over pleading for low gasoline prices.

thank you

FG

ANSWER: The goal of energy independence was achieved under Trump. Now, under Biden, he had depleted the oil reserves all to save the Democrats from their own policies of ending fossil fuels. Worse still, the Biden Administration has now opened the door to the decline and fall of the United States for another oil embargo would be devastating to the US economy and the people are totally unaware of how vulnerable their livelihood now stands thanks to the Democrats.

I’m sure the Democrats will be writing in as always. All I can say is PLEASE look at this objectively and do not vote simply because of party politics. Depleting the strategic oil reserves to just try to bullshit everyone for the midterm election and then afterward, screw you and your family, shows that they are counting on your stupidity and your bias.

I have studied military tactics. All they need do is cut off all oil again, the US will crumble, and your very job will be at risk if companies can no longer function. This is all total bullshit. It should be a crime for any president to take the strategic reserves for personal political gain. This is no different than robbing money from the Treasury.

I have warned, Beware of oil prices in 2023. Biden has completely undermined the security of the United States into 2032. The Arabs know see the crisis that they face. They would be insane to do anything that benefits the Biden Administration or the EU. Forcing prices to skyrocket will be the only thing to force political change from this climate insanity.

Electric cars are not practical. They may be ok as a second car for around town. But I would look at hybrids for we do not have the power grid to support electric cars. In addition, the first think you do in war is take down the power grid. With electric cars and digital currency, you complete shut down an opponent. Brain dead – just brain dead.

CDC Holds Meeting on Whether or Not to Include COVID-19 Vaccinations in Their Recommended Pediatric Immunization Schedule


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on October 19, 2022 | Sundance

The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) is scheduled to decide Thursday whether or not to include COVID-19 vaccinations in their pediatric immunization schedule.  For most parents this quietly organized committee meeting is coming as a surprise.  [ACIP Agenda Here]

Many states require following the CDC guidance as part of their school vaccine requirements.  The substantively untested mRNA vaccine for children is quite controversial; however, as noted by some alternative media sources there is a benefit to Big Pharma in the approval.  Mandated immunizations provide liability protection for the pharmaceutical companies that manufacture them, and the CDC is essentially a government arm of those same companies.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson used his widely watched broadcast to raise awareness of the meeting. {Direct Rumble Link} – WATCH:

Clark County Today – Armed with information from dissenting health scientists, parents in a number of states convinced their health board to reject bids to add the COVID-19 vaccine to the list of required shots for public schoolchildren.

And parents across the nation are demonstrating their lack of trust in the experimental mRNA vaccines issued under emergency use authorization, with only about 2% of children under 5 and less than one-third ages 5 to 11 having been fully immunized.

Nevertheless, the CDC is poised to address the “vaccine hesitancy” and the pharmaceutical companies’ lack of permanent liability with one vote.

On Thursday, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is scheduled to decide whether or not to include COVID-19 vaccinations in their pediatric immunization schedule.

Approval not only would make it more likely that states will mandate COVID-19 shots to attend public school, it could grant permanent legal immunity to vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna along with another profit windfall, health scientists are warning. (read more)

While the CDC guidelines for pediatric vaccination schedules doesn’t technically force states to follow the federal guidance, many states defer to the CDC and require their school districts to follow the guidelines.   As a result, adding the mRNA COVID vaccine to the federal immunization schedule would mean many parents would have to give their child the vaccine in order to comply with state requirements.

There are several studies and a growing number of pediatric doctors who are concerned about the safety of the mRNA vaccine in a childhood group who are not at high risk from the virus itself.    For children and young adults, the benefit of the vaccination is potentially outweighed by the harm it may cause.   Mandating the COVID-19 vaccine in children is extremely concerning, albeit beneficial to Big Pharma.

Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake was asked about the issue on Wednesday and responded that she would not support adding the mRNA vaccination to the state requirement. {Direct Rumble Link} – WATCH:

Civil Unrest Growing in France


Armstrong Economics Blog/France Re- Posted Oct 19, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Protests are appearing across France as people are demanding changes. I must say, I do respect the French for always taking to the streets when their politicians fail them. And the politicians are certainly failing the people right now. There are ongoing protests regarding the rising cost of living. Winter is coming and people are concerned about basic necessities such as food and energy.

There are now protests demanding that France abandon NATO. The people do not want to enter a war. On the same day that President Macron announced 2,000 Ukrainian troops would be trained on French soil, thousands took to the capital to demand a stop to this madness. The protestors, per usual, called for Macron’s resignation. In addition to abandoning NATO, the French people would like to abandon the European Union. The idea behind the creation of the European Union, a union to end and prevent war in Europe, has clearly FAILED. “Frexit” is becoming a trending topic as the people now see that those in Brussels do not care about the people.

Our computer has indicated that civil unrest would rise going into November. There are protests appearing all over the world, and unfortunately for the opposition, those protests will only heighten as conditions worsen and policies are passed at the expense of the people.
