Josh Mitteldorf Proves We’re Not Living in a Simulation
Anti-aging scientist Josh Mitteldorf returns to Truth Jihad Radio to offer “Proof We Are Not Living in a Simulation (see Nick Bostrum’s famous essay) and discuss the amazing fact that “The Universe Seems Fine-Tuned for Life.” If we answer those cosmic questions quickly we’ll move on to questions about quantum physics and mind-brain relationships.Josh Mitteldorf writes:I The Universe seems fine-tuned for lifeThe fundamental equations of physics have constants in them that physicists take as a given. They just happen to be what they are. For example in E=mc2, the E is any measured quantity of energy and m is any measured quantity of mass, but the c is the velocity of light, and this is one of those arbitrary constants. The strength of the gravitational force is another example, along with the strength of the electric force that holds electrons in atoms, and the strong force which binds neutrons and protons together in the nucleus. All of these are arbitrary constants. There is no theory to tell us what they ought to be.About 50 years ago, physicists started asking “what kind of universe would this be if these constants were different”. They discovered a startling fact. Our universe would be VERY different if any of these “arbitrary” constants were changed just a little bit. In every case, the universe would be much less interesting, and life would probably be impossible.For example, if the balance between the strong force and the electric force were tipped more toward the electric force, then there would be no chemical elements except hydrogen. Nuclei would not be able to hold together, because the electric repulsion between the protons would make them fly apart. If it were tipped more toward the strong force, then neutrons and protons would clump together indefinitely, until all atoms merged into a giant neutron star. Chemistry is the basis of life. It’s the difference between gold and granite, between air and ice cream. No chemistry means a dull world indeed.Another example, the gravitational force is just right for stars and galaxies. If it were just a little weaker, the clouds of gas that came out of the big bang would never condense to make galaxies and stars. The world would remain forever a diffuse gas. If the gravitational force were a little stronger, stars would burn much hotter, and they would burn themselves out in thousands of years instead of billions of years. Probably life could not evolve in those circumstances.One more example: Electrons are much lighter than protons, about 1800 times smaller in mass. If electrons were a little lighter, they would be traveling too close to the speed of light for atoms as we know them to exist. If they were heavier, then …Before 1970, scientists regarded life as an opportunistic phenomenon that could probably arise in some form with any set of arbitrary constants that Nature chose to throw out. But after these articles in the 1970s, physicists had to face the fact that the very possibility of life depended on a lot of conditions that they (physicists) had regarded as arbitrary. The “standard” interpretation among physicists is that there are many, many universes, but only a tiny fraction of them have life. Of course, we live in one of those improbable universes because we are here to ask the question. The religious interpretation is that God created a universe hospitable to life. A scientific/spiritual interpretation is that consciousness is “the ground of being”, closely related to fundamental physics, and that consciousness fashioned the universe and living creatures as a home for itself.II What is the relationship between mind and brain?In the 1990s, a philosopher named David Chalmers hammered away at challenging philosophers to address this question. He called it the “hard problem”. The world of subjective experience and awareness that each of us knows so well has no obvious relationship to matter or physics. How did the two come to be connected?Chalmers himself narrows the question to “how does the brain generate consciousness?” assuming that consciousness is generated by the brain. But 125 years ago, William James offered a cogent argument that we only know that awareness is associated with brain activity, and not that it is caused by brain activity. He offered reasons to think that consciousness has an independent existence, apart from physics. The brain, then, is a transducer that takes sense signals from the world and connects them to the realm of consciousness, while taking willful intention from the realm of consciousness and connecting it to nerves and muscles. James was offering a lecture on “human immortality.” If the brain produces consciousness, then we can’t expect that there is any consciousness that survives death, when the brain no longer functions. But if the brain merely connects consciousness to the physical world, then it is plausible that our individual consciousness might survive after our bodies are dead.Note: A lot of activities an

William Willers & Dr. David King on Mask Psychosis & COVIDystopia
William Willers, a retired University of Wisconsin biology professor who supported my 9/11 truth academic freedom struggle, returns to Truth Jihad Radio to discuss a new article that he’s having trouble getting published in Wisconsin MSM. It begins:“Who Is Ryan Westergaard?“The short answer is that Dr. Westergaard, a public official, is Wisconsin’s Chief Medical Officer and State Epidemiologist. As such, he is in a position to advise the Governor on matters of public policy relating to health. From this position of influence, he has made it clear in multiple appearances that he represents ’science’ relating to the Covid-19 Pandemic.“On July 3, 2020, in a televised interview by journalist Frederica Freyberg, Dr. Westergaard stated ‘Now the science is in. [Because of] recent studies with large numbers of patients in large numbers of countries …. we have hard evidence that risk of transmission goes down dramatically when people wear masks.’ This came as a great surprise given that all of the available scientific literature indicated the precise opposite. Consider just these three:“Item: A May, 2020 article in the The New England Journal of Medicine reported ‘We know that wearing a mask outside health care facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection.’ “Item: A Policy review of the CDC, May, 2020 regarding the effectiveness of face masks concluded that ‘… evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.’ Both of these are notable in that they were published just two months before Westergaard’s claim of mask effectiveness.“Item: In 2016, an extensive review of the literature encompassing 36 earlier studies was titled ‘Why Face Masks Don’t Work: A Revealing Review’. The subtitle: ‘Yesterday’s Scientific Dogma is Today’s Discarded Fable’. Fable! But in Spring of 2020, the article was removed and replaced with a notice that the article is ‘no longer relevant in our current climate.’ Understand that ‘climate, as used, had nothing to do with the weather.”Halfway through the hour we are joined by Dr. David King, a candidate for Wisconsin Lt. Governor who has attracted considerable support from the COVID freedom movement. This is a public episode.

Peter Koenig: Ukraine-Russia "Hot War" Advancing the Great Reset?
Watch the video version on RumbleEconomist and geopolitical analyst Peter Koenig discusses his recent articles “Ukraine-Russia: Towards a “Hot War”? Advancing the Agenda of the Great Reset?”, “The World Health Tyranny: Towards the WEF “Great Reset of Misery”, and “The Shanghai Lockdown. Seen from Another Angle.”Peter Koenig writes:“Russia intervened in Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Since then, all eyes are on Russia and Ukraine. Almost to the day covid disappears from the world arena, at least officially. Covid is gone from the headlines, everywhere. This is no coincidence. Geopolitics do not know coincidences – only plans and strategies.“The ever-stronger and more relentless provocation to pull Russia into a war with Ukraine – may it have been planned by the WEF and the WEF’s handlers? – Because the WEF’s full and final agenda is much stronger and wider and larger and deeper – than Covid and the War combined. But Covid and the War are perfect instruments to further the (UN) Agenda 2030, alias the Agenda of The Great Reset.” This is a public episode.

Charlotte Dennett on Why Ukraine Is the Mother of All Energy Wars
Charlotte Dennett, author of Follow the Pipelines, explains “Why Ukraine Could Be the Mother of All Energy Wars.”Unsophisticated people think wars are about good guys vs. bad guys. Slightly savvier folks think wars are primarily driven by ideological and religious disputes. Charlotte Dennett begs to differ. She says that if you scratch beneath the surface of a modern war, you’re likely to discover that it’s really mostly about gas and oil. Indeed, all of the recent Middle East wars, as well as the current Ukraine wars, are about oil and gas in general, and pipeline politics in particular.Charlotte Dennett’s father, Daniel Dennett, America’s leading Middle Eastern master spy, was pushing a pipeline project that would have benefitted the US relative to other players when he was killed in a mysterious plane crash in 1947. Charlotte’s quest to solve the mystery of her father’s death led her to discover the often-hidden key role that competition for hydrocarbons plays in modern geopolitics and warfare.Charlotte Dennett is the author of Follow the Pipelines: Uncovering the Mystery of a Lost Spy and the Deadly Politics of the Great Game for Oil.

Tom Luongo: Why Russia Will Win the Energy War
Tom Luongo of Gold Goats n’ Guns opens his new article: “This day has been a long time coming. From the moment, more than a decade ago, when it was finally admitted that Europe was destined to be an energy importer, we were going to see the climax of the showdown between the West and Russia.“Europe as energy importer always meant that time was on Russia’s side. All it had to do was draw the conflict out long enough, survive long enough, to force Europe into submission. Russia has the energy Europe needs, no one else can supply it, therefore the final decision will be to accept this fate.”Tom says Russian energy and gold will ultimately defeat the Western banksters’ fiat debt currency.

Peter McCullough and Jessica Rose on "Alarming, Catastrophic Vaccine Deaths"
Dr. Peter McCullough is a practicing internist and cardiologist in Dallas, Texas. Dr. Jessica Rose holds degrees in applied mathematics, immunology, computational biology, molecular biology and biochemistry. (Check out her Substack.) Both are leading figures in the popular resistance movement pushing back against bad COVID policies. Below is a rough transcript of our interview._Kevin Barrett: Welcome to Truth Jihad Radio. I'm Kevin Barrett talking with the folks who have the most to say from way outside the box of mainstream idiocy. And today I've got two of my heroes I've been following for quite some time, Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Jessica Rose. I finally got them on the show. They're both people with a very strong medical credentials who've questioned the COVID party line and gotten some pushback for their pains. Dr. Peter McCullough is a cardiologist with a strong public health background, a master's in public health from the University of Michigan. Jessica is a Canadian researcher who's got a bachelor's in applied math, a master's in immunology, a PhD in computational biology, and on and on and on, even more than that. But we'll just get going here. So, hey, welcome. Peter and Jessica. How are you?Jessica Rose: Great. Good, thanks.Kevin Barrett: Well, it's an honor to have you. We'll start with Peter, because although both guests are having some Internet issues. Peter's are worse. So, Peter, we're going to start here first. Maybe you could quickly introduce yourself and let us know how you ended up being somebody who's being both cheered and smeared for saying sensible things about COVID and the experimental injections.Peter McCullough: I'm a practicing internist and cardiologist in Dallas, Texas. Academic practice. I spend about half my time seeing patients like yesterday and half my time in academic mode. As an author and former editor and contributor, I'm a frequent news commentator now. Never thought I would be in the limelight, but I was very much prepared for it in terms of my training and background in analyzing data, both as a clinical trialist and an epidemiologist. I have been cheered, there's no doubt about it. I've testified in the US Senate and been well received across multiple news platforms. I've only been jeered, I think—in fact, I know—by people with no credentials and no credibility. And I think that jeers are about 1% and I think the cheers are 99%. But if you can find somebody who's credible, who's ever said a discrediting statement, I'd be happy to see it.Kevin Barrett: Well, here's here's a kind of humorous discrediting statement. According to Wikipedia, you're spreading misinformation about COVID because you are not sure that people under 30 should be getting the experimental injections. Now, I don't quite understand that.Peter McCullough: But let me just say, Wikipedia has contributors who are anonymous. The most frequent contributor to my Wikipedia page is not me. I should actually be writing my own Wikipedia page. In fact, Wikipedia has locked me out. It's someone in Illinois named the Altman, so it's an anonymous, uncredentialed person who's putting incorrect information on my Wikipedia page. So Wikipedia, in my view, since it's not a biographical or autobiographical page that's credentialed or allows the individual to actually put correct information, Wikipedia should be removed from the Internet and clearly not viewed by anybody who's interested in the truth.Kevin Barrett: I agree completely. I had a five year battle with Wikipedia myself and it was maddening. They had libelous information up for five years that couldn't be taken down, sourced to an anonymous obscure blog lying about me. So yeah, it's completely insane. And the idea that questioning whether people under 30 should be getting these COVID injections (is bad) is also completely insane, isn't it? Where do they come up with it?Peter McCullough: You know, I'm a doctor, so I decide not Wikipedia. I decide. I have the medical authority to decide and help patients judge the risks and the benefits. The risks of the vaccines in people under 30 far outweigh any benefits that could be had, even from the very beginning against the wildtype strain which the vaccines were designed to block. Now, with the Omicron strain across the age spectrum, the risks which are still there outweigh any theoretical benefits. And again, I'm the doctor. I have the authority to decide and make that judgment, not anonymous Wikipedia people.Kevin Barrett: Well, I'm not a doctor, but that's sure how it looks to me too. I just can't imagine why anybody would be telling young people to (get vaccinated) even back in the bad old days of Delta. Even then, the numbers didn't make any sense to me either. So, Peter, where did this COVID thing come from? It looks like a bioweapon, and there are various theories about that. To my mind, even just the presumption that that's a possibility means we need to shut down biological weapons research. Maybe you

Steve Kirsch on Why Vax Advocates Refuse to Debate
Steve Kirsch is a self-described “retired high-tech serial entrepreneur” with engineering and computer science degrees from MIT. He is also a leading critic of the COVID vaccines. He writes:“I used to believe that the FDA, NIH, and CDC were honest organizations. I trusted them. I’m doubly-vaxed with Moderna as of March 29, 2021.“A month later, I started hearing stories from my friends who reported relatives who died or they themselves became permanently disabled. So I looked into it and the more I looked, the more appalled I became…”Steve Kirsch has challenged vaccine advocates to debate him, offering various people and institutions sums up to a million dollars, but thus far has not had much luck. He writes:“If you are an infectious disease professor, county public health officer, COVID fact checker for a mainstream social media company, or a vaccine expert at the CDC, FDA, NIH, Pfizer, or Moderna, and you are interested in making a lot of money just for answering some questions we had, please fill out the form and name your price for a 3 hour session where we get to ask questions.”Are the experts afraid to debate Steve Kirsch because they know they’ll lose?

Ex-CIA/State Dept./Special Forces Larry Johnson debunks "virulent" anti-Russia hysteria
Larry Johnson of The Son of the New American Revolution blog is a well-informed and eloquent critic of the official US government and media line on Ukraine. In this interview, Larry Johnson casts severe doubts on much of what we’re hearing from the media, including the claims that “Ukraine is winning”:“What you would expect to see if the Ukrainians functioned as an effective army: number one, in the east, they would have broken out. They would have actually launched a counterattack against the Russians and pushed the Russians back to the border. That hasn't happened. In fact, the reports show steady progress by these Russian backed forces in Donetsk and Luhansk in pushing back the Ukrainian military. “Number two, the Russians have basically they have sealed, completely shut down, the southern coast of Ukraine and their access to the Black Sea. Again, if the Ukraine had a viable, capable army that could fight against that, they would be launching counterattacks to push the Russians out and to open those ports. They haven't done that. What we're seeing is that this group of neo-Nazis that are in the steel plant area of Mariupol are slowly being encircled and killed. So again, if Ukraine had a functioning army, you'd expect to see artillery strikes coming in to try to push back the Russians. We're not seeing that. You'd expect to see air strikes, some sort of air operation, whether with fixed wing or rotary wing. We're not seeing that. Cruise missiles. We're not seeing that. So do they not have it or are they just incapable of using it in an effective manner? And I think it's the latter. Because it's irrational for them not to use it if it's still viable. I do know that their ability to conduct air to air intercept with fixed wing combat aircraft was curtailed the first 24 hours of the war on February 24th because the ground radars were blown up and those ground radars were what the pilots needed in order to vector themselves in on a target.” Below is a full transcript of our April 11 interview. -KBLarry Johnson interviewed by Kevin BarrettKevin Barrett: Welcome to Truth Jihad Radio. Kevin Barrett here, looking for the ugly truth hidden underneath the festering piles of lies. And the lies just keep on festering, getting worse all the time, from 9/11 and the 9/11 wars to COVID to the current Ukraine situation. It's gotten to the point that the mainstream media is almost a parody of itself, infinitely worse than it was back during the Cold War days that I grew up in. I don't know what to compare it to. So now I have to bring on independent experts who actually know what they're talking about to dissect the situation and tell us what's really going on. And one of those is today's guest, Larry Johnson. Larry has a background in military special ops and strategic analysis and stuff like that. He's got the Son of the New American Revolution blog or sonar21.com. It's one of the best go-to sources for off-script reporting on the Ukraine situation. So, hey, welcome, Larry. It's good to have you.Larry Johnson: Hey, thank you. Good to be with you.Kevin Barrett: Okay. So let's start just quickly get your background. You obviously seem to know what you're talking about and have a certain amount of military and strategic analysis background. So where did you get that? And then how did you come around to these off-propaganda-script views?Larry Johnson: I started working with the Central Intelligence Agency in 1985. I was there until 1989, moved from there to the US Department of State's Office of Counterterrorism. I was there for four years and then moved off and began again doing consulting in 1993-94. And I worked for 24 years with the U.S. military special operations forces. So one of the unique insights I've had is being able to integrate CIA, State Department, FBI and the rest of the intelligence community with military operations and capabilities.Kevin Barrett: A very interesting background. That's actually kind of similar to the background of my friend, Veterans Today Editor Gordon Duff, who's certainly an interesting character, and who's been on the show quite a few times. Gordon saw that there were some problems with the official story of everything in the mainstream from the moment he went to Vietnam as a marine and saw what was happening in Vietnam. It didn't match the patriotic story. And it just kind of got worse from there, apparently, culminating after 9/11 with that obvious big lie and the controlled demolition of the Trade Center pissing him off enough that he would eventually start Veterans Today. What was your trajectory that led you to your current views?Larry Johnson: Well, I just I just try to assess information. I mean, it's got to add up. And we've seen enough lies over the years from the government that I realize you can never take them at face value. So particularly with the Ukraine situation, when you step back and look at it objectively, recognizing that Ukraine spends more money on lobbying in Wa

Gideon Polya on Comparative Casualties; Henry Makow on "Russia vs. West = Men vs. Femmes"
Australian biochemist and avoidable mortality expert Gideon Polya, author of US-Imposed Post-9/11 Muslim Holocaust & Muslim Genocide, discussing "Epitaph For Madeleine Albright: Complicit In US Mass Murder Of Millions Of Non-European Children." He notes that the West condemns the Russian war in Ukraine and bemoans the relatively small number of civilian casualties, "but only a tiny few humanitarians are also condemning Western hypocrisy in ignoring hundreds of millions of deaths from violence and imposed deprivation through US hegemony, subversion, sanctioning, robbing, bombing, invasion and devastation of non-European countries over the last 70 years. Black, brown and non-European lives matter."Then Henry Makow arrives halfway through the hour to discuss "Russia vs. West = Men vs. Femmes." He writes:"Listening to the eye-opening interview with Scott Ritter, I was struck by how MASCULINE the Russian game plan is. The Russians perceived a threat to home and hearth from corrupt Nazi-ridden Ukraine and acted decisively. This is what real men do...Russia Vs. the West is very much healthy heterosexual males versus sexual misfits: pedophiles, homosexuals and transvestites."Look at the Western leaders."Biden is a pedophile. So probably was Trump. Fidelito, Zelensky and Macron are homosexuals."In contrast, Putin has banned the promotion of homosexuality and transgenderism."Sexual dysphoria is an aspect of Satanism. It is anti-nature and anti-God..."We'll also discuss Henry's take on Ukraine as a neo-Khazaria. See: "NATO is Khazaria in Drag" This is a public episode.

Eric Walberg on Gender Madness; Eric Zuesse Nominates Gen. Douglas Macgregor for President
First half-hour: Eric Walberg discusses his latest book review "The Boy Who Was Raised as a Girl" and expresses his dismay with the media's moronic anti-Russia propaganda.Second half-hour: Eric Zuesse nominates Douglas Macgregor!From Eric Zuesse:We need Douglas Macgregor for U.S. President.Here is why:Democrats, Republicans, and independents, all need this person in the U.S. White House. We are the American people; and he represents, more articulately than anybody else does, on the most urgent and important issue confronting the world, what all Americans — and all of the people in the world — need. That’s a fact. That need is a fact. How can it become implemented?This need has become desperate. On March 13th, Fox News headlined “US senators dismiss ‘World War III’ worries, say US would dominate Russian troops”. Almost none of the 5,000+ reader-comments there cared much about the fact that WW III would destroy all life on this planet, and most of the readers were concerned only about whether ‘we’ would ‘win’ that war — a war that would utterly destroy the entire world. The American public no longer consider a war between the world’s nuclear superpowers (U.S. and Russia) to be fundamentally different from, and enormously more unacceptable than, any prior war. The massive fear of nuclear war in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis is gone, though nuclear war would be hundreds of times more destructive in 2022 than it would have been in 1962. The rabidly neoconservative American press has whipped up the international hatreds and blocked out the crucial facts in its international news-reporting, so as to produce America’s present misinformed and zombie-like public. This is idiocy on a massive scale, in our own nation, right now; and, so, America will have no public opinion restraining its leaders from destroying the entire planet in order to ‘save’ Ukraine — a previously unimaginable lunacy, but the reality today.Only leadership such as Douglas Macgregor could provide would offer the type of leadership that might overcome this ugly present reality and transform America into a decent nation again — one that takes deadly seriously the deadliest of dangers, not only dangers to Americans, but dangers to the entire planet. America’s existing leadership is atrocious beyond anything in all of human history. We’ve not had the type of leadership that Macgregor can supply ever since at least the time of JFK, but the post-9/11 period has been especially nonchalant about the unacceptability of any WW III. For warfare, the atomic age brought with it a change of type, not ONLY a change of ITEM, but that basic fact has now been effectively forgotten in America, and this poses the greatest threat to the world in all of the world’s history — and this reality of Americans’ stunning ignorance and nonchalance about what a WW III would mean must change, and fast. Before nuclear weapons, there could have been any number of World Wars (superpower-conflicts); but, after the 1945 advent of nuclear weapons, there can be only one more World War, and it would begin the process that would soon end all life on this planet. Our nation’s leaders now are no longer restrained by the public about bringing it on. Shall we acceptthat?—————Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s next book (soon to be published) will be AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change. It’s about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public. This is a public episode.

NASA Whistleblower Richard Cook on “Zionist War on Russia”
Richard Cook, the NASA whistleblower who stopped the Challenger disaster coverup, discusses his latest article “Pro-Zionist U.S. Politicians Dead Set on War with Russia.” It begins:“World affairs are rapidly moving toward their culmination as the U.S.-instigated war between Russia and Ukraine threatens to escalate into a nuclear conflagration. The charge to world war is being led by U.S. Zionist politicians and bureaucrats, especially President Joe Biden and his chief implementer, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. As usual, the dirty work on the ground is being carried out by the ever-present CIA and its compliant military superstructure. By now the Zionist march to world domination has been thoroughly documented and will not be reprised here. It has been accomplished largely through infiltration and control of the English-speaking nations—chiefly Great Britain and the U.S…” This is a public episode.

Michael Brenner on Anti-Putin Frenzy
Note: Eric Zuesse has been rescheduled for this Friday. -KBInternational Relations professor Michael Brenner discusses his new article "Why the Unhinged Russophobia and Anti-Putin Hysteria?" It begins:"Among the many oddities of the Ukraine affairs, the most astonishing is the frenzy of hostile passion directed at Putin, Russia, and everything Russian. Nothing close to this has been seen since World War II when Hitler and the Nazis were Satan incarnate...The first thing to be said on this score is that the passion and drive have come from American elites. There has been no great wave of popular outrage, no mass demonstrations, no blood-curdling calls for revenge and punishment. No post-9/11 national trauma. Instead, the fury is generated by our government leaders (Blinken, Sullivan, Nuland, Harris, Pelosi, Cruz); from the media world’s clueless news presenters cum propagandists, from the demonically possessed editors of The New York Times who have discovered the thrills of ‘yellow journalism,’ from the likes of Peter Gelb, from the scores of Nobel Prize winners who in concert have lent their weight to the crusade; from the university presidents presiding over pious vigils who are thankful that the spotlight is shifting away from the innumerable scandals they are paid hefty sums to whitewash; and Gold Medal to the IOC who ban crippled athletes from competing in the Winter Paralympics because their passport says ‘Russia’. All are hugely self-satisfied. None of them ever blinked an eye as the United States for 20 years has killed, maimed, starved, and tortured hundreds of thousands in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria et al in exercises of brutality that have left the country’s security in a more precarious state than when the onslaught began."

Marilyn Singleton vs. American Oligarchy
Marilyn M. Singleton discusses her new article “Real Americans and the American Oligarchy.” In it she writes:“Federal and state governments have used Covid as a justification to cross the line from public safety measures into tyranny. Despite the decreasing Covid cases, the national Covid emergency declaration was extended beyond March 1, 2022. The national emergency designation gives the President more than 100 special powers that can bypass legal procedures ranging from banking to public health and anything else the government wants to control.“Despite a long tradition of differing opinions regarding medical disease processes and treatments, the government discouraged such discussions regarding Covid. First, the Surgeon General simply asked us to help stop ‘misinformation’ because it ‘pollutes our information environment.’ A few short months later, the feds are demanding that social networks, search engines, crowdsourced platforms, e-commerce platforms and instant messaging systems send data and analysis on the prevalence of Covid-19 misinformation on their sites. Translation: divergent opinions will be censored once the government discovers how to do so.

Dmitry Orlov on Ukraine: "Everything You Know Is Wrong"; Nahed al-Huseini Agrees
Watch the Orlov video interview on RumbleFirst half hour: Dmitry Orlov weighs in on Ukraine. In today's Orwellian America, "war is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength"—or so the mainstream media tell us. But in reality, the truth is usually pretty much the opposite of whatever the MSM says. That seems to be the case with Ukraine, where the people we're told are good guys are actually bloodthirsty zio-nazis, and the Russian cleanup (of US race-specific biological weapons, among other things) is more than justified, according to Truth Jihad Radio guest Dmitry Orlov.Dmitry Orlov was born in Leningrad, USSR, into an academic family, and emigrated to the US in the mid-1970s. He holds degrees in Computer Engineering and Linguistics, and has worked in a variety of fields, including high-energy physics, Internet commerce, network security and advertising. He is the author of several books, including Reinventing Collapse and The Five Stages of CollapseSecond half hour: Nahed al-Husaini agrees with Dmitry and then some. She discusses the US bioweapons labs in Ukraine and says Russian sources tell her the labs harbored an ultra-lethal strain of COVID-19 among other things.Nahed is Veterans Today Damascus Bureau Chief. She is a member of the American Institute for Middle East Strategic Studies (USA) and serves as Assistant Director of Arab-American and Muslim Congress (Detroit, USA). She has a Diploma in English Literature from Damascus University (1987). She’s also been a reporter for Turkish newspaper Aydinlik, Special Coordinator for Arab-Armenian International Law Assembly, Correspondent for Qatari News Agency, Al Ayam news Paper in Bahrain, Al Liwaa in Lebanon, Correspondent for Petra News Agency in Jordan, correspondent for the Associated Press in USA, and worked as a freelance journalist for CBS, ABS and CNN in Syria.

Guy Mettan on “Creating Russophobia”
This interview was originally broadcast September 15, 2017Why does the Western mainstream incessantly demonize Putin and Russia? Guy Mettan’s Creating Russophobia offers a detailed and convincing answer. Mettan begins by listing the many incidents and issues that have been wildly misreported (with massive anti-Russia spin at best, outright lies at worst) in the West. Having established the existence of such strong prejudice against Russia, he argues that the roots of this unfortunate attitude go back roughly 1,000 years. Like Islamophobia, Russophobia is an age-old Western prejudice with a religious basis: It goes all the way back to the Great Schism between the Eastern and Western Christianity. And like Islamophobia, Russophobia seems to stem from a certain narrow-mindedness, fanaticism, refusal to see the Other’s point of view, and desire for absolute domination that lurks in the dark heart of that imaginary construct we call “the West.”Today, Mettan argues, the modern histories of French, German, and British Russophobias have converged in, and been subsumed by, an American-dominated Russophobia whose hallmark is a kind of Orwellian “cognitive manipulation” based on linguistic subterfuge. This US-led demonization of Russia via newspeak, Mettan says, uses “readymade language elements” such as those laid out in the notorious “Israel Project 2009. Global Language Dictionary,” a hasbara manual for Zionist propagandists.Is there any hope for peaceful coexistence with Russia, given the Russophobic forces currently in command? Perhaps…if we make an all-out effort to amplify the voices of sanity. Guy Mattan’s is one of the most important of those voices.KEVIN BARRETT INTERVIEWS GUY METTAN 9/15/17 (COMPLETE, LIGHTLY EDITED TRANSCRIPT)Kevin Barrett: Hey, how are you doing?Guy Mettan: I'm fine, thanks.Kevin Barrett: All right. Good to have you. Your book Creating Russophobia is really brilliant and extremely timely. It's a little bit mind boggling that somebody who comes out of the center of mainstream Swiss journalism and institutions has managed to tell this much truth about a topic that is so taboo. What got you started on this?Guy Mettan: I have followed Russian affairs and the gap between Eastern Europe, Russia and the European Union for a long time, about 20 years, as a journalist. And for 25 years I have had special ties with Russia because I received the Russian nationality from President Yeltsin. My wife and I adopted a young girl, our daughter Oksana. Since she became our daughter we could get the Russian passport. And since then I have had a special focus on Russia. I visit the country, I have many friends, and so on. And I am always surprised by the huge gap between the Russian reality, how Russians live, and what is shown by the Western media, the way the Western media speak about Russia. Because it is very negative...When the second revolution took place in Maidan in Kiev in 2014, I thought "these prejudices are so great, so deep, so important, I have to do something." And so I started to write this book.Kevin Barrett: That's very interesting. I can relate to your situation because I was probably made more sensitive to Islamophobia due to having married my wife, who is Moroccan and Muslim. And so in a sense, I sort of have a dual nationality with the Muslim Ummah. And so since 9/11, with this pervasive Islamophobia, I think I've noticed it more than other people might have, and I can understand how your connection with Russia would also help you see things from this other perspective that's being systematically neglected. So the Western media are obviously not very enthusiastic about publishing information of the kind that you're offering in this book. And I know your book came out in French originally, and it took a while to come out in English. Did you have a hard time finding a publisher?Guy Mettan: Oh, yes. We tried many times. We took the first edition in France and tried to to get an English publisher or an American publisher as soon as possible. For six months it was quite difficult. But suddenly by chance two publishers (became) interested. We found Clarity Press in Atlanta...Kevin Barrett: It publishes very high quality stuff.Guy Mettan: So thanks to Diana Collier, the director of the publishing house Clarity Press, we could publish it in English. And I must say, for me, it was quite an experience. Because the way you write a book is very different in the United States. In America, you are very attached—and I think it's a good thing—to all the details, to check every fact, to check every date and so on. So it was a long, hard job to take everything and to answer all the 300 questions Mrs Collier had before publishing the book. But now I think it is quite good. It improved a lot.Kevin Barrett: I haven't read it in French, but the English version is terrific. It's very detailed and as far as I can tell, fully accurate and really comprehensive.So then the question arises: How is the mainstream go

Andrei Martyanov on Russia-Ukraine & “Disintegration” of US
Andrei Martyanov discusses his new book Disintegration: Indicators of the Coming American Collapse in light of ongoing events in Ukraine. From his latest blog post: “Europe willingly committed suicide and reduced itself to a lunch for the US.” He quotes Tony Wood: “Why didn’t the government of Germany guarantee in writing that it would veto any additional NATO membership? It would have solved at least half of the problem. Why didn’t any other NATO government do so? And what are they doing now? Where are their initiatives for peace? It is over. The Ukraine is gone. Russia has won. Energy and wheat prices have doubled. With inciting a longer fight Europe only increases its own losses.”Martyanov: “Russia is the largest wheat exporter in the world. I will omit here data on strategic resources such as rare-earth metals and fertilizers, of which Russia and Belarus account for almost 40% of world supply and you can draw the picture yourself. Europe, meanwhile, lost more than 160 million people market (Russia and Belarus) and with upcoming addition of another 20-25 millions in Ukraine, we are looking at 180-185 million. This is serious, folks, especially considering the fact that modern Russia is not poor on average and is able to pay. Good job, Europe. Good luck in your new life, whatever is left of it.”ANDREI MARTYANOV is an expert on Russian military and naval issues. He was born in Baku, USSR in 1963. He graduated from the Kirov Naval Red Banner Academy and served as an officer on the ships and staff position of Soviet Coast Guard through 1990. He took part in the events in the Caucasus which led to the collapse of the Soviet Union. In mid-1990s he moved to the United States where he currently works as Laboratory Director in a commercial aerospace group. He is a frequent blogger on the US Naval Institute Blog.

James Fetzer is appealing to the Supreme Court! (Actually we’re not sure they’ll find him all that appealing…) But seriously, folks, Jim’s petition to the Wisconsin Supreme Court appealing the Posner vs. Fetzer decision was turned down on Feb. 16, forcing Jim to fundraise in hopes of taking his appeal to the highest court in the land.Though I’m not sure Jim’s right about Sandy Hook, I’m convinced he didn’t get a fair trial, as I explained here.We’ll also discuss the Ukraine situation and Jim’s latest article explaining why the Canadian government has apparently backed down from its plan to freeze and seize funds of political protestors.

Ex-NYU Prof Michael Rectenwald: "Woke Capitalism" is a Scam
Professor Michael Rectenwald, who prevailed in a free speech fight at NYU a few years ago, recently published “Woke Capitalism is a Monopoly Game.” It begins:“In 2018, Ross Douthat of the New York Times introduced the phrase ‘woke capital.’ Essentially, Douthat suggested that woke capitalism works by substituting symbolic value for economic value. Under woke capitalism, corporations offer workers rhetorical placebos in lieu of costlier economic concessions, such as higher wages and better benefits. The same gestures of wokeness also appease the liberal political elite, promoting their agendas of identity politics, gender pluralism, transgender rights, lax immigration standards, climate change mitigation, and so on. In return, woke corporations hope to be spared higher taxes, increased regulations, and antitrust legislation aimed at monopolies. Although woke capitalism alienates cultural conservatives, the Republican Party remains procorporate, making woke capitalism a win-win strategy for corporations…” This is a public episode.

COVID Crisis Implodes, Ukraine Crisis Explodes (Just a Coincidence?)
Is it just a coincidence that when the “fear COVID” narrative suddenly imploded, a new “fear Russia” narrative arose? Is the war in Ukraine designed to distract from the pro-freedom protests rising up around the world?

Michelle Malkin on Being Banned from AirB&B
Has former Fox News pundit Michelle Malkin taken the red pill? Last year she moved her blog (the biggest political blog in America?) and its massive archives to the Unz Review, home of notorious dissidents and “conspiracy theorists” like yours truly. Since then Malkin has come under increasing fire by the usual suspects, culminating in last week’s banning from AirBNB.Banned from lodging for harboring politically-incorrect views? What’s next, “disagree with us and you won’t be allowed to purchase food”? (Maybe I shouldn’t give them any ideas…)Twenty years ago, when I was a witch and Malkin a witch-hunter, I never thought we’d be playing on the same team. But now we’re both witches, and the witch-hunting team is coming after us with torches blazing. I salute Michelle Malkin’s courageous decision to step outside the mainstream (she had more to lose than I did) and appreciate her willingness to engage in fearless and uncensored conversation—and to apologize for her mistakes in the wake of 9/11, including joining other Fox News personalities in attacking me for seeking the truth about 9/11.Below is a lightly-edited transcript of the interview.Kevin Barrett Interviews Michelle Malkin, 2/11/22Kevin Barrett: This is Truth Jihad Radio, questioning official stories since 2006. Please subscribe by way of the Substack button at TruthJihad.com.Welcome back to this live radio show broadcasting every Saturday evening from 7 to 9 p.m. Central where I am and whatever time it is, wherever you are, it's always time to talk to the most interesting folks who have something outside the box to say.My second, hour guest is brand new to Truth Jihad Radio. She recently moved to the Unz Review, which is one of my homes on the internet. I'm talking about Michelle Malkin. You may have seen her on Fox News or elsewhere. And she is now in the news for having been banned from Airbnb for her political views.Wait a minute, they can ban you from lodging? You try to check into the motel and you find out that you said something political that somebody didn't like and you can't stay there anymore? Are we all going to be homeless? Are they going to ban us from eating? Things are really getting strange in America today. Let's try and make some sense of it. Hey, welcome Michelle Malkin, how are you?Michelle Malkin: Good. Thanks for having me.Kevin Barrett: So what's with Airbnb? I can't believe it. Since when did people start getting banned from accessing these kinds of basic services in America due to their political stances?Michelle Malkin: Well, it's been happening for a while, but with particular regard to the dissident right. A lot of young activists and journalists and independent citizens, researchers that identify themselves as truly America First, as opposed to the appropriated generic brand that we're now seeing from the Republican Party. It's been happening for quite a while, and I'm certainly not the first canary in the cancel culture coal mine on this. In fact, in 2019, when I came out with my latest book called Open Borders Inc., I dedicated it to many of the patriots who have already been suffering de-housing, de-platforming, de-banking and now, most recently, a twist of de-planing. There are a number of individuals, and I'm trying to get a complete list of them through a Freedom of Information Act request, who've been either put on the no fly list or designated by the TSA as heightened security risks, and either stopped and swabbed for bomb-making materials, prevented from booking tickets online, this type of thing. The designation is SSSS. And I identified at least two individuals who had been classified as such. So the idea that I could be retaliated against by a service provider of public accommodations like Airbnb is certainly in keeping with that trend. The new twist or new wrinkle, at least to my mind, is the fact that not only was I punished specifically for speaking at the annual American Renaissance conference last November, but my husband's account was also deleted. And he is not a public figure. He's not a journalist. He wasn't at the conference. But it doesn't matter. And the idea that it was my speech was also pretextual, because Airbnb didn't bother to obtain a transcript or a video of the speech before they made this decision.Kevin Barrett: So this wasn't really about anything you said. It was about associating with the wrong people. It's guilt by association. And I guess they're saying that American Renaissance is, quote unquote, a hate group. So whatever you say at their convention, it's equally bad. Which strikes me as very strange. If I were invited by any group to talk to their convention, I'd probably go. And if I disagreed with them, I would explain why. And then I guess I would get banned by Airbnb just for having been to their convention if it's a convention that Airbnb doesn't like. I really don't understand that logic.Michelle Malkin: Yes, and your family members. And here's what concerns me as a mom of tw

Daud Batchelor on “Muhammad the Ultimate Leader”; James Howard Kunstler on COVID “Wake-Up Call”
First half hour: Daud Batchelor discusses his book Muhammad the Ultimate Leader: From Western Business Perspectives. It begins:“Of five non-Muslim biographers cited by Khalid Yassin, who had studied leaders throughout human history, three of them determined that the most profound human being who has impacted on humanity was none other than the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (saas).One of the biographers, Michael S. Hart, a Christian, noted that Jesus Christ (on whom be peace) was not a father or husband, and was not a ruler, a military commander, nor a statesman. Consequently, he remarked that Jesus (owbp) cannot be a full role model for us. However, he believed Muhammad (saas) was as influential as Jesus Christ (owbp) on a spiritual level, and as well, ‘Muhammad, may well rank as the most influential political leader of all time.’ Hart stressed,‘It is this unparalleled combination of secular and religious influence which I feel entitles Muhammad to be considered the most influential single figure in human history.”Second half hour: Notable American author James Howard Kunstlerrecently published a wickedly concise summary of the state of the Western world, “Wake-Up Call“:“Who would have guessed that Canada, demure, inoffensive, shrinking violet among nations, would rise to lead a world-wide revolt against the Satanic dominion of digital neo-Bolshevism?…Well, now it has happened, and the head of Canada’s government, Justin Trudeau — arguably the most fatuous would-be tyrant in the former “Free World” — has failed to emerge from his hidey-hole for the better part of a week, perhaps afraid of his seeing his shadow like the groundhog of legend, and it begins to look as if his days as Prime Minister grow short. It’s rumored that the Canadian military told Mr. Trudeau in plain un-Woke Canadian English to f**k-off, they will not take orders to put down the trucker’s protest, and even the Mounties are wobbling, so it’s left to the Ottawa police, who threaten to arrest anyone aiding the truckers with food, water, and fuel. Wait and see how quickly that will turn to fighting in the streets. Constitutional crisis, ay?”The onrushing implosion of Western governments’ COVID policies, Kunstler writes, could turn explosive: “We now enter a period of danger as the sleepwalkers of America awaken from their induced consensus trance and begin to understand how they were harmed, swindled, and robbed by a corrupt, criminal officialdom.” This is a public episode.

Ken Meyercord on Ukraine False Flags
Washington, DC-based gadfly and retired TV talk show host Ken Meyercord reports: “Today’s Washington Post is full of reports on the possibility of the Russians executing a false flag operation to justify their invasion of eastern Ukraine; namely, staging an attack purportedly by Ukrainian forces on the Russian-speaking population of the secessionists provinces of the Donbass. However, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), an organization comprising 57 States encompassing three continents – North America, Europe and Asia, reports a buildup of 150,000 Ukrainian troops on the border with the break-away Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics., so an attack on these republics may not be a false flag at all but the commencement of a Ukrainian attempt to regain these territories (the border area is a much more active warzone already than I had realized). As to the legitimacy of these areas seceding, let’s remember that the people running the Ukrainian government today did not exactly come to power through constitutional means (If those rioters who broke into the Capitol on Jan. 6th had truly been insurrectionists and had succeeded in overthrowing the government, might not some of these united states have broken away and declared their independence?). Whether the Ukrainian troop deployment is a tit for a similar Russian tat, I cannot say, but I would guess the reverse. Ukraine is a long way away but a conflict there is likely to have a significant impact on us all, so we might want to pay attention and act on it.” This is a public episode.

Activists Rashid Daoud and Martin Hill make their livings as long-haul truck drivers. What do they think of the Freedom Convoy occupying Ottawa—and the likelihood that US truckers will follow suit? As Politico reported yesterday: “As hard as it is to imagine, President Biden’s political fortunes are about to get worse. The massive trucker convoy that crossed Canada to protest against that country’s new vaccine mandates will almost certainly be replicated in the U.S. and will bring with it huge headaches for the Biden White House.” This is a public episode.

Josh Mitteldorf on COVID/Vaccine Controversies, Miracles & Quantum Theory, Atlantis, 6th Extinction, and More
Scientist Josh Mitteldorf, author (with Dorion Sagan) of the book Cracking the Aging Code , just published "5 Theories on the Origin of Omicron, the Variant That Might End the Pandemic." Today, Josh returns to Truth Jihad Radio to tackle a long list of controversial issues—not just the usual COVID debates! As he wrote me ahead of the interview:"Kevin - I'm delighted we're going to have this conversation. You're one of the few people who have read in areas diverse enough to make it possible. I don't expect we're going to figure anything out, but perhaps we'll be able to broaden the conversation about what's happening in the world.* I would like to start with this quote from Charles Eisenstein about miracles.* I'd like to explain my (very incomplete) view of physics and metaphysics: Poincare's determinism, superceded by quantum indeterminism that says that half of the information in present reality is missing, replaced by "randomness". Well, it's not random. It's the place where spirit or consciousness or human intention enters into the world. This was proven by Robert Jahn and Brenda Dunne in a long series of experiments.* This is a time of important, transformative change, but it's hard for us to see who is behind it and what they want.* It may be helpful to remember the last time the world was transformed by apocalypse, an incident recorded both as Noah's Flood, the sinking of Atlantis, and the Younger Dryad impact event.* It is certainly relevant that without some kind of transformative event, humanity is on the road toward global ecocide, which would devastate the human population incidentally in the course of the Sixth Extinction.* Satanism. Ritual child mutilation and murder. Skull and Bones. Bohemian Grove. Part of what this is about is "learned psychopathy" = psychological manipulation of people to dissociate them from their conscience and from the innate feeling that life is sacred. Jeffrey Epstein's link to Gates, the Clintons, Dershowitz, the British Royal family...* The Nimitz spacecraft. Anti-gravity, zero-point energy extraction. There are technologies here on earth with transformative properties. Certainly the beings (human or not) who control these technologies have enormous potential to shape the destiny of the planet. What do they want?* On the one hand, they disable nuclear missiles* On the other hand, they mutilate cattle and abduct humans* How are the beings that control such technology related to the perpetrators of the pandemic? Are they directly involved -- the very same people? Are they just watching the evil perpetrators, letting it happen? Will they intervene to make sure the transformation goes one way or the other?* At the end of this essay, I raise the point that this technology very probably has potential for giving us abundant energy, eliminating the need for much war and destruction, and (in the wrong hands) the potential to blow up whole cities with a device far simpler than a nuclear weapon. Is this why the oligarchs feel a need to enslave us?I want to end, as we did last time, with the reminder of what we know we're aiming for: peace and freedom, local autonomy and diverse communities.- Josh" This is a public episode.

Joel Hirschhorn on Real COVID/Vaccine/Collateral Death Toll, “Praise the Lord and Pass the Ivermectin” and More
Joel Hirschhorn, author of Pandemic Blunder: Fauci and Public Health Blocked Early Home COVID Treatment, writes in his new article “Praise the Lord and Pass the Ivermectin”:“Hospitals have become killing machines, places where the kiss of death is a protocol following government guidelines. Despite the wide COVID vaccine use, deaths in hospitals because of late stage viral infection remain at a high level. Difficulty in getting COVID testing quickly and often probably contributes to the high death rate. Too many people do not get their COVID infection addressed early…”We also discuss the controversy about excess death numbers and what is causing them (a topic of Dr. Hirschhorn’s article last fall that estimated more than two million total deaths): “note that there were many more COVID death in 2021 when there was wide use of vaccines than in the first year of 2020 before vaccines were used…It is reasonable to believe that CDC knows the real figures for total deaths from all causes, the levels of excess deaths of 15% and 19% for the two pandemic years, and they keep the official data on COVID related deaths.” Here are the CDC’s publicly available figures:Note: Dr. Hirschhorn’s exposure of Fauci, Pandemic Blunder, scooped RFK Jr.’s book by almost a year! And don’t miss his article about COVID treatment protocols including how to obtain Ivermectin, etc. This is a public episode.

Meryl Nass on Fake Science vs. Vax Death Count
Medical doctor and biowar expert Meryl Nass sorts through the inadequate data on adverse events following COVID vaccinations, and contradictory reports on whether the vaccines raise or lower life expectancy, and uncovers disturbing facts that appear to have been deliberately concealed. Is the big pharma funded pro-vax lobby placing lies and deceptions in major scientific journals? Dr. Nass writes: “This is some of the fake science that needs to be called out. (Super Cheat Klein is one of the authors.) And this.”We’ll also discuss this new study suggesting that the incidence of myopericarditis post-vaccination is “markedly higher” than the CDC claims. And we’ll examine some of this week’s headlines including “Indiana life insurance CEO says deaths are up 40% among people ages 18-64” and “How to verify for yourself that over 150,000 Americans have been killed by the COVID vaccines.” This is a public episode.

Dr. Peter Chojnowski on Fatima Apparitions Conspiracy
Eschatologists from many religious traditions agree that we are approaching the End Times—what Muslims call Akhir-uz-zaman. Tonight’s show is dedicated to Fatima—the daughter of Prophet Muhammad (peace upon him) whose name, by Divine synchronicity, was given to the village in Portugal where the apparition of the Holy Virgin appeared in 1917, offering the Three Secrets of Fatima to three young Portuguese shepherds. One of them, Lucia Santos (Sister Lucy), later became embroiled in the controversy over the Vatican’s alleged suppression of the too-terrible-to-be-revealed Third Secret of Fatima.A few years ago I speculated about the deeper meaning of the Fatima apparitions in my article “Islam, Armageddon, and the Secret of Fatima.”Dr. Peter Chojnowski of SisterLucyTruth.org argues that Sister Lucy was “disappeared” and replaced with an imposter circa 1960:“The life of Sr. Lucy and the catastrophic changes in the Church over the course of the 20th century give rise to a problem that demands an explanation.“1. How do we account for the dramatic changes in Sr. Lucy’s behavior, in her appearance, and even in her handwriting after 1967?“2. How do we account for the behavior of the Vatican and Church hierarchy remaining completely silent on the Third Secret for 40 years and clearly promoting a campaign of silence and propaganda to create an entirely new understanding of Fatima, one that waters it down into insignificance?“3. How do we account for Sr. Lucy’s complete support of this propaganda as well as her requests for complete and blind submission to the Popes after Vatican II when before 1960 she did not hesitate to repeat how the Popes had failed to heed to Our Lady’s requests and how displeasing this was to Our Lord, Our Lady, and herself?“What you will discover in these pages is the most reasonable explanation for every question above, namely, that the original seer of Fatima, Sr. Lucia, was replaced by an entirely different person, resembling her and acting in her name. Does the forensic evidence suggest this? Overwhelmingly yes. Our purpose is to hire the top scientific, medical, and forensic professionals to analyze and evaluate this evidence to come to the truth of Sr. Lucy’s identity and ultimately to discover what happened to the seer of Fatima.” This is a public episode.

Ron Unz: MSM Hit Piece on RFK Jr. Is "The Dog That Didn't Bark"
Ron Unz responded to the AP’s 4,000-word hit piece against RFK Jr. just hours after its publication. He noticed a very strange omission: “Almost half of the entire book under attack—around 200 pages—is devoted to the presenting and promoting the astonishing claim that everything we have been told about HIV/AIDS for more than 35 years probably amounts to a hoax…Yet not a single word of this astonishing situation appears in the long AP article, that attacks Kennedy on almost all other possible grounds, fair or unfair. Did all six of the AP writers and researchers somehow skip over those 200 pages in Kennedy’s bestseller?”Probably not. More likely, they were told “don’t go there.”But why not? After all, if RFK Jr. is an “AIDS denier,” the people tasked with destroying his reputation would surely say so….and then call him a homophobe, and probably a racist to boot. Wouldn’t they?Not if they knew or suspected that RFK Jr.’s sources, including Nobel laureates Luc Montagnier and Kary Mullis, are right about the HIV hoax. The MSM dog should have barked its head off about those 200 pages of RFK Jr.’s The Real Anthony Fauci. But it didn’t. Paging Sherlock Holmes! Sherlock, we’ve got a problem! This is a public episode.

Jamie Macphail on "9/11: Unravelling the Lies"
Jamie Macphail’s book 9/11: Unraveling the Lies is a terrific resource for newcomers to the controversies around 9/11—and also for us old-timers who occasionally need to refresh our memories. As the author puts it, the book is “A comprehensive and up to date analysis summarized into one volume to provide an overview for both convinced skeptics and those inclined to believe the official account.”Below is a transcript of the first two-thirds of the interview. (I’ll complete the transcript this weekend.)Jamie Macphail discusses 9/11: Unraveling the Lies Kevin Barrett: You're listening to Truth Jihad Radio, where we've been talking about 9/11 and other forbidden topics since 2006. If you like the show, please subscribe at Substack. You can find it by way of TruthJihad.com. Just click on the Subscribe at Substack button.Welcome to Truth Jihad Radio, the radio show that goes all out for truth, starting with 9/11 truth and moving on from there to all of the biggest issues that are being covered up or spun or completely suppressed or lied about in the corporate controlled mainstream. Today, we're going back to 9/11, the mother of all false flags and the mother of all red pill issues, with the author of a terrific new book summarizing the best evidence against the official story. Jamie McPhail is the author of Unraveling the Lies, and it is available free of charge on the Internet. And so this is actually a good book to pass out to any (if there are any) intelligent, sentient beings that haven't yet figured out 9/11 in your neck of the woods. You can pass them the URL for this book and they can take a look at it for free and see what they think. It's a valuable book. Thank you so much, Jamie. How are you doing?Jamie MacPhail: Very good. Nice to talk to you Kevin.Kevin Barrett: Good to have you. So I noticed that in a way this is sort of like an update of the kind of information that David Ray Griffin has been working on for so many years. But instead of 14 volumes or whatever he's published, you've packed it all into one volume.Jamie MacPhail: Yeah. David Ray Griffin has been a great source of information on 911, along with a few others, such as David Chandler, of course, Kevin Ryan, Kevin Fenton, of course, writing on the issues around the intelligence agencies. There are so many people. Graham McQueen, of course,has been a great contributor to the to the cause well. And Mark Gaffney, just to name a few.I've kind of read all their stuff and sought to put it all together into one coherent narrative, but trying desperately to avoid getting caught up in rabbit holes, which 9/11 is absolutely replete with. You know, there's so many areas of 9/11 that if you're not really careful, you can just get caught into a particular perspective that can be then knocked down and destroyed as an argument. So I've tried to keep clear of the pitfalls. For example, the Pentagon is a classic one where most people who have written about 9/11 have always followed the line that it's a cruise missile and there's no evidence of the 757. And I had that view myself as well, actually for many years, until I came across the research of David Chandler, Wayne Coste and their colleagues on the on the website 911SpeakOut.org, which is very, very good and very useful to to investigate for those who are interested in the Pentagon. So that's one of the rabbit holes of 9/11n. We can very easily get caught up in the idea that there was no plane that went into the Pentagon.Kevin Barrett: And the rabbit hole is a good metaphor for that. Since there are those two holes: There's the the hole on the outside, and then there's the interior hole in the E ring, the central one of the five rings in the Pentagon. And just a cursory examination, especially of the exterior hole, without knowing the larger context, can easily make it seem very obvious that there was no big plane. Jamie MacPhail: Yeah, absolutely. And (Gen. Albert) Stubblebine was a great advocate of that. And he, of course, was a major figure within the American Army, and he came out and said, in about 2005, that the plane does not fit the hole. I don't know if you remember that one.Kevin Barrett: Yeah, it was like if the plane does not fit, you must acquit.Jamie MacPhail: "So there's no there's no plane, it must have been a cruise missile." But there is very clear evidence (of a big plane impact). I've borrowed some pictures from 911SpeakOut.org to put in the book. It's very clear that there was structural damage along about a 90 foot area of the front of the Pentagon there, indicating that yes, actually it wasn't a cruise missile, it was something much larger that caused that amount of damage. I know this is a contentious view. There are many people in the 9/11 truth movement who still maintain that it was a missile or bombs and had nothing to do with the 757. But I would challenge that view myself. And the evidence relating to the shenanigans of Dick Cheney in the Presidential Emergency Operations

Thaddeus Kozinski on “What Plato can Teach us about Covid 19”
Philosophy and humanities teacher Thaddeus Kozinski, author of Modernity as Apocalypse: Sacred Nihilism and the Counterfeits of Logos, discusses his new essays “What Plato can Teach us about Covid 19” and “Covid 19: The Warning.”Kozinski writes: “The last eighteen months is perhaps the demonstrative proof that Plato was right…” How so? As Plato knew, “the vast majority of us need a polis as well as a Church, one that unites us, not in the isolated and isolating ‘pursuit of happiness,’ but in the communal enjoyment of happiness, in the knowledge, love, and celebration of the Good in the Real.” But the post-Enlightenment secular liberal state explicitly takes no position on the Good and the Real…at least not until a contrived state of emergency panics the population into blindly submitting to the rulers’ Evil Illusion.In “Covid 19: The Warning” Kozinski holds nothing back: “What I mean, then, by ‘the Covid-19 pandemic’ is the installation, under the cloud of a hoax pandemic and engineered ‘virus’ (in truth, as Dr. Judy Mikovitz has proven, a pandemic of retro-virus diseases caused by decades of poisonous, animal-DNA infected vaccinations, now being deliberately triggered through the unleashing of a bio-engineered pathogen under the name Sars 2-Covid) of a global religion of Satan-worship commanding our obedience to the Great Lie and the fear and hatred of all that is true, good, and beautiful, including psychotically fearful, masked zombies celebrating their forced isolation and torture…” This is a public episode.

Ex-Cultist Radhia Gleis on BuddhaField Cult /Trump Cult
Radhia Gleis discusses her award-winning new book “THE FOLLOWERS: ‘Holy Hell’ and the Disciples of Narcissistic Leaders: How My Years in a Notorious Cult Parallel Today’s Cultural Mania.” The autobiographical volume describes the author’s 25 years in the BuddhaField cult led by Jaime “Michel” Gomez, an apparent narcissistic sociopath and homosexual predator-cum-hypnotherapist with a flair for plagiarizing spiritual books and trying out their tricks on unsuspecting seekers. (And as the Firesign Theaterreminds us, there’s a seeker born every minute!)Taking up where Will Allen’s documentary Holy Hell left off, Gleis systematically compares Jaime Gomez’s BuddhaField with Donald Trump’s MAGA movement…and discovers a long list of similarities. Though her core argument is convincing—yes, Trump is a narcissistic sociopath and de facto cult leader who manipulates rubes in many of the same ways that Jaime Gomez, Jim Jones, Rev. Moon, and other such con artists have—she drinks way too much Democratic Party kool-aid along the way. And though she ignorantly slanders the Qur’an, her post-BuddhaField spiritual/religious views are beautifully-expressed and uncommonly insightful. So though I don’t expect this interview to be as contentious as the Mona Shaikh meltdown, there will definitely be some differences of opinion on display. This is a public episode.

DAUD PIDCOCK WAS A LEADING BRITISH MUSLIM CAMPAIGNER AND COMMENTATOR AT LEAST SINCE 1989 WITH THE RUSHDIE AFFAIR. MANY IN THE BRITISH MUSLIM COMMUNITY WILL NOT EVEN KNOW OF HIM AS THEY WERE NOT EVEN BORN IN THE 80’S. A VIDEO IS POSTED ON OUR HOME PAGE DURING A HOUSE OF LORDS SEMINAR FEATURING HIM.

Have you noticed that the world isn't getting any less crazy? In fact, it's getting so crazy that more and more people are beginning to wonder whether we may be living in the end times, the akhir-uz-zamman. Sheikh Imran Hussein is the world's most interesting eschatologist, that is, student of the end times. Today, we're bringing on another very interesting and accomplished student of the end times, David Musa Pidcock. He's the co-founder of the Islamic Party of Britain, and his views are way outside the mainstream box.David is a Muslim leader from the UK who has done all kinds of interesting work on a wide array of issues. And today we're going to talk about one that he's especially well versed in, which is the question of end times scenarios. And in Islam, we call that akhir-uz-zaman. Are we living in the end times? If we're going to apply any template to the crazy events going on in today's world to try to make sense of it and tell an overall story about it—some might call it a myth, others might call it an accurate story—this akhir-uz-zaman or end times template strikes me as rather uncannily appropriate in many ways. So let's hear what David thinks. Welcome! As-salaamu alaikum.David Pidcock: Wa alaikum as-salaam. This is a particularly interesting subject and one that I've concentrated on for quite some time. We've put out a book in response to Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses. It’s called Satanic Voices, Ancient and Modern. And in it I came across some very interesting material, particularly on the issue of the British Embassy in Constantinople (and a hadith about the end times). Now this is very interesting for our times from the beginning of the 20th century till today.Now, the British Embassy had written a letter basically notifying the British government of what had just happened on July the 8th 1908 in Constantinople. A coup d'etat had taken place on July the 8th, and the whole of the Ottoman Empire basically was then taken over by 70,000 Masonic Jews from Salonika. And he gives a whole background to what's going on and what would happen.Kevin Barrett: This was the so-called Young Turks, right?David Pidcock: Oh yes, the young Turks, up to their old tricks, I suppose you could say. But what's interesting is that they (the Salonika Jews) had congregated in the Ottoman Empire. After the the Spanish Inquisit
