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.

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.

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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Northampton is a vibrant college town* (Smith) and one of the larger URBAN concetrations in Western Mass. There is indeed a lot of rural activism in the hill towns (townships) -- in some of which Bush came in THIRD in 2000. But Northampton isn't rural by our standards. Not hardly. It's the nearest "city shopping" place for many of us rural folks (if we're into the ritzier stores)
I live in one of the more populous hilltowns (Buckland) but it's populous (~2000) mainly because the village of Shelburne Falls lies half in Buckland, half in Shelburne. Plenty of the other hill towns have populations under 1000 and some barely 500.
We hill folks don't consider places like Greenfield (~10,000) or Northampton (~20,000) to be rural. Why they have supermarkets, more than one gas station, etc. Might still be a truck farm or two running a farm stand, but no field many acres of corn, dairy herds, sugaring houses,. etc. like we have in the rural towns of Western Massachusetts.
* Northampton on one side of the river (Connecticut) and Amherst on the other are known as the "five college" area. Within less than a ten mile radius......... Smith, Mt Hoyoke, Amherst, Hampshire, and U Mass
I get your point but I did upload the introduction from NYC and in comparison North Hampton seems pretty rural!
A gathering we have been attending for >25 years includes many from the "Big Apple". Although now held on a more rural site, for many years at a campground, a nice campground mind, but in sound of the Turnpike (NY Thruway). Point is that to the folks from New York City area, wow, we're way out in the country. But to us, well there were more people staying at this campground than the total population of the town (township) in which we lived and the total land area of the campground less than that of our own property.
So yes, to them a place like Northampton is "in the country".
I was just trying to make things clear for you at a distance. Muchof Western Mass would be sort of like the wildest, least inhabited parts of Ireland. We have bear and moose on the property here as well as the more obvious critters like deer, turkeys, etc. Last October a WOLF was killed in a sheep farm next town over (say 10 kms from here) -- lab results just reported it was a wild wolf, not an escaped pet.
There is a very active "buy local" campaign --- aka "local hero" -- go out of your way to buy agricultural products produced here instead of "imported".
