How easy it is to make people believe a lie, and how hard it is to undo that work again! (Mark Twain)
Turn off your television. Turn off the news media. Do not visit their websites. Do not listen to their broadcasts. The reality they present is not real. Turn it off. It is poison for your mind. Turn it off, now.

There is a propaganda technique I have seen in use elsewhere, as with climate change, and certainly with germ theory and vaccinations. I would like give it a name and place it alongside other logical fallacies like ad hominem, post hoc ergo propter hoc, appeal to authority, etc. I think of it as smug arrogance.
It is the technique of argumentation where the proponent of an idea assumes himself right on all matters and therefore immune from criticism. He snidely dismisses criticism, censors opponents, and attach to them such epithets as “conspiracy theorist” or “denier.” Continue reading “A new logical fallacy”

US Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper described the assassination of General Soleimani as a “decisive defensive action” while confirming that the operation ordered by Donald Trump had been carried out by the Pentagon. “The game has changed” said Defense Secretary Esper. – Michel Chossudovsky, January 4, 2019
If it isn’t our old friend Amy Goodman (AKA, Janis) with the retired “good” general managing public perception as the new Middle East Plan is unveiled. It hardly seems – to me at least – that “the game has changed.” https://www.globalresearch.ca/we-re-going-to-take-out-7-countries-in-5-years-iraq-syria-lebanon-libya-somalia-sudan-iran/5166
It’s the same game, always. Why would anyone want to continue playing this game?
So it’s Turkey Day in the US of A. Which means many of us will be spending a lot of time today and the next few weeks with family and friends. Some of us might even be brave enough to bring up some conspiracy topic: 9/11, sports, secret celebrity twins. Inevitably we will be dismissed. So I’m posting this to jump start a conversation about effective ways to talk about conspiracies with friends and family. Continue reading “Talking Conspiracy with Family & Friends”
Miles Mathis posted a paper I wrote showing that the famous Dreyfus Affair was a manufactured hoax. For those of you coming here from that paper, welcome! Below I have a brief clarification about the goals of the Dreyfus affair plus a bonus outing of another French spook. But first a few preliminaries:
I am a new addition to the blog here along with several regulars who have until now only contributed to the comments section. Mark Tokarski is the captain who prefers to stay out of the limelight. He welcomes thoughtful comments and constructive criticism. But he runs a tight ship, so please be thoughtful and respectful when commenting or you might have to walk the shill plank. (-;
Mark, along with another contributor who goes by straightfromthedevilsmouth (or ‘straight’ for short), has discovered a shocking number of celebrities who we know as a single persona but are actually ‘played’ by identical twins. If you’ve read Miles’s work, you know that Intelligence loves twins, like Paul & Mike McCartney and Elvis & Aron Presley. Well it turns out those ones are just a drop in the bucket. You can find all of the twins uncovered so far in The Honor Roll of Twins on the right sidebar under the Blogroll. We have a working hypothesis that twins can be ‘engineered’ by artificial embryo splitting, but that’s for another day.
…and nothing to get hung about.
Living is easy with eyes closed.
Misunderstanding all you see.
Do you think maybe they were trying to tell us something? Well, my eyes are open. And I’ve accepted Mark’s generous invitation to blog here to try to share what I see from my perspective. I told him I wouldn’t have time to contribute for awhile, but dagnabbit it’s just too compelling. I was previously commenting here under the pseudyonym ‘daddie_o’ but that username is already taken, so now I’m ‘daddieuhoh.’
A little bit about me: I’m a disenchanted academic. My field is in the social sciences. About the 1st of this year, I happened to start watching a documentary called “9-11: The New Pearl Harbor.” The scales fell from my eyes, and I was thrust into a couple of months of intense reading up on many different conspiracy theories, trying to sort fact from fiction. I’m still at it. I’ve come to the conclusion, mainly thanks to others’ research, that much of what we see on TV or read in the newspapers is fake and phony. We’re being manipulated and duped on a grand, almost unimaginable scale. Our thoughts and passions are being molded and orchestrated. So much of the world we think we live in is a sham, a conjob. And so many of the conspiracies we read about are false leads and misdirection. Waking up to this realization was psychologically difficult at first. A bona fide ontological rupture. But I would not trade my newfound perspective for anything. I’m wide awake inside the Matrix, and I’m not going back to sleep.
We are in Copenhagen, Denmark, leaving tomorrow.
I don’t know how much play this event is getting over in the Land of the Free, but they had what appears to be a false flag event here today, a young man shooting and wounding a couple of cops and a foreign tourist. The event happened in Christiania, a part of Copenhagen that was once a military facility, but since 1971 or so has been occupied by a hippie commune.
That is why I wanted to see it, and we had plans to go there today. In fact, we did go to Christinia, and all was quiet. There were no cops around, and no signs of agitation. Here is the event, as described by news sources:
The suspect, identified in press reports as Mesa Hodzic, was declared dead just before 2am, the Independent Police Complaints Authority (Den Uafhængige Politklagemyndighed) said.
“The 25-year-old man … died overnight in Rigshospitalet [hospital] from his injuries,” the agency, which is investigating the incident because police used their guns during the arrest, said in a statement.
Hozdic was suspected of shooting two police officers and one civilian in Christiania on Wednesday night. One officer was shot in the head and is still in critical condition, while the other two men suffered only minor injuries.
The 25-year-old was still armed when police confronted him in a residential area near Copenhagen Airport. He was shot by Copenhagen Police’s Special Intervention Unit during his arrest and was taken to hospital.
Hozdic was a Danish citizen who came to Denmark from Bosnia at the age of four.
Police said on Thursday that Hodzic has “ties to [militant Islamist group] Millatu Ibrahim and sympathies for [terrorist group] IS,” but stressed that there is “currently no evidence” to suggest that the shooting was a result of his Islamist beliefs.
Above is his photo. His eyes are as narrow-set as any I have ever seen. His face is long and narrow. For whatever reason, this photo appears to have been altered to change his appearance. Do narrow-set eyes make him appear more sinister? He actually looks pretty tame to me.
Reasons to suspect it is all false flag:
As as we walked across town today on our way to the hotel, and after our visit to Christiania, it was a bustling Saturday with open malls crowded with locals, farmers markets going, tourists filling up the restaurants. It was as if nothing had happened.
However, at an intersection at a large public gathering spot, police had about a hundred uniformed men present, and had rudely cordoned off streets forcing people to walk other directions to get to their destinations. They also had helicopters flying over. We asked them why, and they said they feared a protest of the event. Perhaps the residents of Christiania, hippies from way back who have little regard for police, know the event was staged, and were going to make a scene.
I checked local TV new for coverage. It was all talking heads, city officials with microphones stuck in their faces. Of course, I do not speak the language. But if they do news here in Denmark like we do in the US, the reporters are mere shills.
Anyway, if I had to bet, I would bet that this was a false flag event.
PS: It appears in retrospect that without that gathering of a hundred police or so in the town square, the even might have passed without notice. Was the purpose then of the show of force by police to remind the public to be a more afraid?
The scene above is the train station in August of 1980 Bologna, Italy, after a bomb exploded and killed 84 people and wounded 200 others. Back in those days terrorists used real bombs and really did kill people. That particular bombing was part of “Operation Gladio,” and was done by agents of NATO as part of what was called internally a “strategy of tension.”
The idea then was to pull of these acts of terror and blame Communists, as they wanted to be sure that there were no communists in government. Only fascists need apply. The notion is about that Gladio ended when people were tried and jailed in Italy, but I doubt it. The strategy of tension is all around us to this day. The object is to keep us in a state of fear – the easier to manipulate and control us.
I was at the gym this morning, and as I sat lifting my weights, I was humming along with a song in my earphones. As I looked up in the mirror, a lady behind me was snapping her fingers and dancing to my tune. We both laughed, and later I told her the name of the tune. She said “I didn’t pick up on that, but you were entertaining for us when the news on TV is so bad.”
Thus did I learn that we have had another event. Brussels this time.
People, I know you won’t listen, that you’ll automatically believe what’s on the TV. Even now, as CIA agent Anderson Cooper is in flight to the scene of the crime, the American news media is full of uncritical vapid pretty faces repeating every morsel handed them by the agents of terror. Just understand that blondes are no better at news reporting than they are at any other facet of life.
In other words, hold back. Don’t assume anything is true. Wait for evidence. Analyze it for yourself. Remember that the New York Times, fifty-two years after the fact, is yet to admit the the Gulf of Tonkin was a hoax, and that trusted source has not transformed over the years into an agent of truth. Not hardly.
Use your heads! Please.
I live by Carl Sagan’s maxim that “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.” It makes life easier, as I fear treading nowhere. I often encounter people spreading notions of space aliens, NSA watching my every move, remote viewing, Illuminati running everything, and I have no fear. If they bring the evidence I will join them. However, they always come up short. It always falls back on one person’s experience or deep knowledge without anything objective to harden the case.
People who read me regularly may be surprised at those words, as I do make claims that shock them – Bernie Sanders is a sheep dog*, Donald Trump might be genuine even if stupid on a high level, John F. Kennedy Jr. was really the love child of Jackie and Aristotle Onassis. And John Lennon did not die in 1980.
I just got done viewing a video link I suggested others watch in the post below. Such suggestions are always done tongue-in-cheek, as if I’ve learned anything in nine years of blogging, it is that people do not want to know things that upset their belief systems. I must be different in structure – that’s all I can make of it, as I love to see cherished beliefs torn apart. I no longer hold on to anything as sacred. I must be growing up emotionally and intellectually at once.
But as I watched the video, which I’ve not seen for a couple of years at least, I once again realized the levels of deception that went into the planning of 9/11. Beyond the events there is a highly sophisticated cover-up, including the so-called “9/11 Truth” movement, an Intelligence operation designed to mislead the curious of mind. As Andrew Johnson, a man I deeply admire, says in the video, good disinformation is 90% truth, with the 10% held back being the essential evidence we are all denied.
I wondered how on earth the average citizen can ever penetrate the levels of deception? People are busy working jobs that drain their energy, and on top of that have families and relationships to maintain. They’ve been brought up to trust the very authority figures they need to mistrust if they are ever to get a grip on things. Add to that the vast amount of entertainment and propaganda we are immersed in … how does anyone ever find out anything true?
The answer is … they don’t. Even if you in the upper 10% on intelligence, even in the upper 3% or even 1% … you are going to get your chain yanked. It is too damned sophisticated to overcome.
Anyway, perhaps you are on in a hundred who will view the video beneath the fold here. Do it for your own enlightenment, but don’t imagine you can turn on anyone else. That does not happen.
