offsite link Trump hosts former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda Al-Jolani to the White House Tue Nov 11, 2025 22:01 | imc
Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.

And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.

In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

offsite link Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Sat Nov 01, 2025 00:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.

Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.

In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.

Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

offsite link Top Scientists Confirm Covid Shots Cause Heart Attacks in Children Sun Oct 05, 2025 21:31 | imc
A comprehensive study by leading pediatric scientists has confirmed that the devastating surge in heart failure among children is caused by Covid mRNA shots.

The peer-reviewed study, published in the prestigious journal Med, was conducted by scientists at the University of Hong Kong.

The team, led by Dr. Hing Wai Tsang, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, the University of Hong Kong, uncovered evidence to confirm that Natural Killer (NK) cell activation by Covid mRNA injections causes the pathogenesis of acute myocarditis.

Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that restricts the body?s ability to pump blood.

and a large gathering of 'ordinary' citizens with a smattering of regular activists for good measure. We even merited an undercover Guard who reported to a uniform that 'items' were being sold at the petition table. The 'items' in question turned out to be Black Shamrock badges which were being exchanged for a donation.

The Irish government refused to let US flights carrying bombs for Israel to land in Ireland, presumably because our political leaders were afraid that the Pitstop Ploughshares would do an encore - to thunderous applause.

So the flights were supposed to be re-routed through Prestwick, as reported in the New Scotsman on Sunday 30 July:
Irish refused bombs sent to Prestwick airport
By Eddie Barnes and Murdo MacLeod
Bombs destined to be used by Israel are being flown via Scotland only because the Irish government refused to allow them to land on its soil.
...
http://news.scotsman.com/politics.cfm?id=1104532006

This decision resulted in a peace demo involving about 150 people at Prestwick on Sunday, as reported by the BBC:

Meanwhile, presumably because the operators of the flights knew they would be met with this demo, and perhaps also for fear that the Scottish Ploughshares activist, Karen Fallon, would appear with a mattock strapped to her back and an inflatable hammer in her pocket, two flights carrying "hazardous material" were diverted to the RAF base in Mildenhall, Suffolk. (I don´t know what the hazardous material on these two flights was, but I do know that bunker-buster bombs are highly hazardous.)

The two flights landed at RAF Mildenhall on Saturday evening and flew off again on Sunday.

But also here a demo was held, as reported by the Cambridge Evening News:
...
Peace protesters gathered outside the base holding placards that screamed: "Stop murderous cargo flights."
...
Peter Lanyon, former co-ordinator of the Suffolk branch of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, said: "We are horrified and condemn entirely the weapons transports to the Middle East ... And we certainly wouldn´t expect our Prime Minister to be so weak-kneed to allow it. In view of the row that there is around Prestwick, this is deceitful to just shift it down here."
He said he believed the chartered Atlas cargo planes were carrying munitions and added: "I think they are bunker-buster missiles but it is the UK´s involvement that we really object to. We are all guilty for every child and woman who is damaged in Lebanon as a result."

David Howarth, Cambridge Liberal Democrat MP, slammed the use of RAF Mildenhall and called on the Government to stop the country being "used and abused" by the Americans.
...

Conclusion:
US arms transports to Israel are not wanted in Ireland, not wanted in Scotland and not wanted in the Home Counties either.

Given that there have previously been direct actions against even RAF Mildenhall for its role in the invasion of Iraq - as mentioned here:
http://www.indymedia.ie/article/35633
http://flag.blackened.net/revolt/stw/iraq.html
- the empire of Georgius Dubyus Bushus Maximus seems to be left with few secure routes by which to supply its legions in the East.

Go figure!
