Israeli Business Ethics Confirm Antisemitic Tropes

“The Jewish religion is an ethical religion.” The late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginzberg once said. It would stand to reason that the “Jewish state” would reflect this high standard. But, as American expat Saul explained in 2013, Israeli business behavior confirms the worst Jewish stereotypes.In Israel the golden rule is, “Screw the other guy before he screws you.”If this is how (Israeli) Jews treat each other, imagine how they treat the goyim.

Since my Twitter feed has been suspended again, (due to the article below; Twitter only permits hatred of Christians, whites and heterosexuals) I am going to post latest news at the top of my each article until Gab gets its act together and provides a embedded feed.

Charlie Ward- Pandemic of Stupidity and Greed

We’ve heard the phrase, “all’s fair in love and war.” Well, in Israeli business, profit is all that matters.

This is the meaning of the common Hebrew phrase, “shitat matzliach,” literally, “when it comes to succeeding, anything goes.”

Deception and misinformation are hallmarks of the Israeli business model whether conducted at home or abroad. Literally anything goes, as long as a profit can be had. Indeed, Israeli society is so used to this type of behavior that there appears to be no ramifications for getting caught trying to cheat a client or customer. If caught, the ‘seller’ just shrugs — “Everyone does it” — and the buyer, shrugs back with a smile, “Caught you!” Business proceeds.

Foreigners should be aware that to an Israeli you are a “frier,” which means a sucker. 

Non-Israelis are simply easy targets for deceptive business practices because outside of Israel, in the more ‘civilized’ world, people take the Golden Rule for granted. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” In other words, treat business partners and customers fairly. 

But, in Israel the golden rule is different — it means, “Screw the other guy before he screws you.” This is “shitat matzliach” in it’s most base form. All Israelis know what the term “frier” means, and many liberally apply it to the less clever folks from abroad. Yes, in every country there are cheaters, but in Israel, it is an art and way of life.

EXAMPLES

This type of business practice fosters a culture of deception and mistrust. 

The biggest culprits of this behavior are the cell phone companies. Israel’s pride — Israelis invented the cell phone — these are the most corrupt institutions in the country. It is common for the major cell phone providers to double charge, to extra charge, and to flat out change services of customers’ account without notice. 

Making matters worse, they almost all insist on linking to a customer’s bank account. The result is that frequently thousands of shekels are stolen from bank accounts. The banks in Israel typically side with the company. It’s not like in America where a customer can dispute a charge with his bank and the bank will credit the money back, forcing the biller to prove the charges were owed. 

It’s the opposite. The customer now has to sue in small claims court to get their money back. The companies know that most people won’t go through this hassle of court for smaller amounts of money (under 1000 shekels), and this is clearly part of their “shitat matzliach” strategy.

MORE EXAMPLES

Shitat matzliach can be seen in just about every Israeli business. For example, the process of registering one’s car in Israel is a major racket. In the US we have the “smog check” racket. The Israelis take this to new heights. Every year, drivers must have their automobile tested. The tests alone cost over 1000 shekels, and invariably the testing facilities will find “problems” with the cars that need to be fixed. 

There are only so many testing facilities in the country, and all are equipped to do most of the “work” required. It’s like having an accountant figure out your taxes and keeping the tax money.  

Everyone is aware of the Israeli registration scam, but it’s written off to “shitat matzliach” (these agencies and the government are going to make profit somehow) and the citizenry inevitably falls back on the age old Israeli adage, “Ein ma-la-asot” there’s nothing that can be done. (This is Israel, a country founded on theft of Palestinian property, after all.)

An acquaintance was recently scammed by El Al. They charged her $200 for a third bag and when the customer complained that the stated charge was $100, the company told her she misunderstood their policy. Threatened with small claims court over the difference, El Al said, “Bring it on.” It’s all shitat matzliach

The companies in this country know most people will not sue for $100 dollars, thus they will push the envelope, cheat, break their own rules. Failing to do so is like giving money away. These greedy companies suffer no ramifications for deceiving customers with incorrect rules and terms, or in flat out not respecting their rules and terms.

REAL ESTATE  

Not just private landlords but rental agencies will screw over the tenant every chance they get. Deposits are routinely withheld, the landlord or agency claiming damages were done when none were, or when the problem was legally the property owner’s. 

A friend of mine recently had his apartment flood from a leak within the walls of his unit. The leak persisted for days while the rental agency claimed it was the tenant’s responsibility. It absolutely was not, but the agency, notorious for this type of behavior — in the name of “shitat matzliach” — was hoping the tenant, who has to live with the water and mold, would grow tired of waiting and deal with it himself. 

The apartment is now full of mold; the leak still not fixed, and the rental agency is threatening to evict him, no doubt planning to use his security deposit to fix the leak. It is illegal, but common practice here.

Ordinary Israelis are not unlike ordinary people in other countries — they conform to social norms. Unfortunately, in Israel the norm is to expect to be cheated and to always be on the alert for scams. It is thus typical for ordinary Israelis to cheat first figuring the other is going to try it too. This becomes “circular logic” – a self-fulfilling prophecy if you will. Israelis inevitably conclude, “nothing can be done. This is Israel.”

As Randall Terry said, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.” In Israel there is NO shame, thus Israelis do not comprehend the  ramifications of their actions. Invariably they fall back on, “anti-Semitism,” as if the Holocaust gives them a free pass to do whatever they want. 

As a Jew, I find it embarrassing, and it is my hope that people around the world cease associating Zionism or Israel with Judaism. Not all Jews are deceptive in business practice, even if a majority of Israelis are.

Reminder–Agenda 2030: No Property, Privacy, Cash, Freedom, Meat or Pets

We’re being frogmarched into an Orwellian future.The United Nation’s Agenda 21 intends to ban all “unsustainable” practices including irrigated crops, animal farming, having pets, freedom of movement, private cars, air travel and sea freight. 
They intend to outlaw the ownership of all private property, (yours not theirs) as this promotes inequality. What’s “unsustainable” is locking down the human race forever. What’s “unsustainable” is 10% of the people owning 55% of the wealthwhich they will address by getting rid of 80%, and keep 10% as servants. 

from May 3, 2021at a reader’s request

by Teresa Tannahill

(excerpt by henrymakow.com)

If you sit down and read all 351 pages of Agenda 21, plus its ancillary documents, you will find that it’s all about complete control and inventory of everything on the planet: Animal, mineral and vegetable. Including humans. 

The virus would be a means to that end. Bill Gates has already stated that the ingredients are proprietary, copyrighted and will not be released publicly. I predicted last year that the vaccine almost certainly wouldn’t provide immunization against any coronavirus. There has never been a successful vaccine for a coronavirus. They are too slippery, meaning they mutate too much. 

We have now learned that the vaccines don’t prevent a recipient from catching the virus or from passing it on. They only lessen symptoms. Most of the vaccines are not vaccines in the traditional sense of the word. They are gene therapy…

The global human population is surging towards 8 billion. The UN claims that there are a billion undocumented humans on this planet. And that global population is ultimately heading for nearly 11 billion…

In 2009, Boris Johnson published an article in the Telegraph stating his alarm over the exploding world population.  Boris Johnson’s father, Stanley Johnson, has published numerous books and papers for the United Nations on the problem of human overpopulation. He also publishes books about global warming and pandemics. 

Here is an article by Stanley Johnson about the need to do something about overpopulation. 

And here is Stanley Johnson in 2012, in his own words, stating that he wishes to see the population of the UK down to 10 or 15 million by 2025.  

As mentioned, UN Agenda 2030 is the next major milestone of Agenda 21.  The required changes are enormous. Yet we are seeing them all around us. Most of these changes have accelerated since the pandemic. 

The measures “they’re” taking to “protect us” from the virus are indistinguishable from many of the stated goals of UN Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. 

GREEN ENERGY

… While we’ve been kept under house arrest, they’ve been shutting down fossil fuel power stations, oil rigs, oil wells, coal mines, pedestrianizing city centres, disabling our food supply chain, forcing farmers to cull ‘greenhouse gas emitting’ livestock and let ‘unsustainable irrigated’ crops rot. 

More information in this Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/26021243858 1462/?ref=share 

Virtually every major town and city in the UK has had permanent changes to road layout to allow for social distancing. Pedestrianization and cycle ways. One-way systems. Cities are becoming very car-unfriendly. Glasgow has lost a third of its parking spaces overnight. 

Google ‘social distancing centre traffic’. If there’s a vaccine coming, why are these changes permanent? 

To recap, we can expect a cashless society, negative interest rates, social credit system, mass surveillance, mandatory vaccines, ID2020, AI, restriction of movement, health passports, rationing of food and energy, confiscation of private property, banning of private motor vehicles and crippling taxation. Eventually? Depopulation and rewilding of the planet. Several leading medical experts and scientists have stated that they believe the vaccines will eventually be used for depopulation.

LOCKDOWN BLACKMAIL

Meanwhile, the mask mandates, lockdowns and vaccine passports will make our lives intolerable until we submit to vaccination. I’ve been studying geopolitics since 2008 and tracking the WEC and UN’s machinations since January. 

We’re being frogmarched into a dystopian technocracy. An Orwellian future. It was always going to happen, it’s just happening faster than I thought. I can only conclude that the technology needed to implement it was ready after all. 

They’re even hinting at transhumanism and the “Fourth Industrial Revolution”. These topics are covered in the Great Reset videos and literature. We’re living a bloody science fiction novel. 

 https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be& v=ebiUd-Wb6NM &amp

We really are in deep trouble. The world is being steered by a megalomaniac madman, Klaus Schwab, and he has the full power of the United Nations at his disposal. 

This is not speculation, this is fact. The lockdowns aren’t about a virus. The virus was the excuse for the lockdowns. The whole purpose of the lockdowns is to destroy our economy and take away our freedoms. To force us to have these experimental vaccines. 

They’re implementing a hard Agenda 21, a “Great Reset” with the slogan, “Build Back Better” Only Britain won’t be better. Far from it. Those that survive the mass vaccination will live in an Orwellian nightmare like communist China.

“Judeo Masonic Mafia” Behind Covid Depopulation Agenda

Testimony of Russian ex-Military Intelligence Colonel Vladimir Kvachkov, March 25, 2020

So the aim of the behind-the-scenes Zionist and financial powers is reducing the world’s population. It’s their idée fixe.

They think there’s too many of us ordinary people in the world. There should be around 100 million of their kind and a maximum of 1 billion people on Earth to serve them. Then they’ll be living in abundance here on Earth.

According to Wikipedia, Kvachkov  is a Russian former Spetsnaz colonel and military intelligence officer, known for being arrested and charged for the attempted assassination of politician and businessman Anatoly Chubais in 2005, for which he was jailed for three years until he was acquitted on 5 June 2008. Kvachkov did not admit nor did he deny his role in the assassination attempt, instead declaring the act not criminal, and that the elimination of Chubais and the present Russian government was justified as Russia is under the occupation of a “Judeo-Masonic mafia”.
“This virus has a 4th dimension as well – the economic one. The first is the religious one – destruction of people on Earth, reducing the population numbers. The second one is to establish political control over humanity.The third one is the financial deflation of that gigantic financial bubble. And the fourth dimension is the elimination of their geo-economic competition.”

Transcript abridged by henrymakow.com

“The coronavirus phenomenon, the so-called pandemic – and let me tell you, there’s no pandemic, it’s all a lie – needs to be considered as a global, strategic special operation. This is exactly how you need to think of this thing. These are command and staff exercises of the world’s behind-the-scenes powers on controlling humanity. This is what the goal of this coronavirus is.

I’ll repeat it once again. We have little faith in God and even less so in the existence of Satan, the enemy of the human race. So the aim of the behind-the-scenes Zionist and financial powers is reducing the world’s population. It’s their idée fixe.

They think there’s too many of us ordinary people in the world. There should be around 100 million of their kind and a maximum of 1 billion people on Earth to serve them. Then they’ll be living in abundance here on Earth.

Because, us the people, the earthlings – there’s too many of us for the behind-the-scenes world powers.

This is why the coronavirus and the financial crisis that has emerged almost immediately – they’re inextricably tied to one another. The aim is to stop people’s movement around the world, to curtail political freedoms.

In political terms, it would be practically impossible to do all that. There are differences in constitutions. Whether they’re being implemented or not – that’s a different question.

However, there are some political rights that people are accustomed to and they believe them theirs to have forever.

The first attempt to take away those rights from people happened on September 11th, 2001. Not many seem to remember that, after the so-called attack on WTC towers, Pentagon and White House in the USA, the global war on terrorism was declared.

Let’s remember, in order to understand what the coronavirus is now, let’s analyze that first attempt – the declaration of war on humanity that was disguised as a war on terrorism. That was 19 years ago. The behind-the-scenes world powers created the events of September 11, 2001.

Now they need another excuse for greater control and takeover of humanity. That’s how they came up with the coronavirus. Basically, to put it this way, it’s not a pandemic, not an epidemic.

Even now, I literally looked at the data this morning, 300 people in the world die from it daily. You can imagine what kind of scale this is.

Of course, I’m sorry about each person who dies, but 300 people across 7.5 billion people – that’s basically nothing.

These command-and-staff exercises of the behind-the-scenes world powers have an aim to limit different political rights and make people afraid. The fools are already grabbing food in shops here. Millet, buckwheat, etc. …

The first goal is to reduce the population numbers on Earth. That’s their Satanic goal.

The second, political goal of the behind-the-scenes world powers is to seize power.
The third goal is related to finances and power over the economy.

FINANCIAL CRISIS 

Financial, as we already know, at least those who are interested in this … Now, for every product that exists – please, give me your pencil. Okay. Lets say this pencil costs 1 ruble or 1 dollar – let’s say it’s 1 dollar.

For this pencil, it was issued 20 times the amount – in money, in promissory notes, equities and other financial derivatives. That means, if you take the real value of this pencil, it comes with 20 different papers that carry 20 times the value.

Accordingly, all the financial and economic relations have gone from the real economy to this virtual economy. It’s a financial bubble that exists now and which encompasses, I think, 1 quadrillion and 200 trillion dollars. It’s a complete financial bubble. It needs to be deflated.

FRS, the Federal Reserve System, literally some days ago, that was in February, I think – introduced a zero-percent interest on deposits.

Now, in many countries, it’s even a negative interest rate – that is, you deposited 100 dollars and you get 90 or 95 dollars. But at least you’re still going to get it. So, we’re already getting negative interest rates on deposits. So, that wealth has to be deflated. How will it be deflated?

Again, through this artificial international … we see the economy has crashed, it’s clear, accordingly – we can’t meet your domestic demand like we did before, you need to tighten your belts, etc.

CHINA

Now is a very important moment. Note, it allegedly started in China. Even though the Chinese are now adamant and report that the coronavirus was created artificially. It has an artificial origin – it’s been proven scientifically already.

Of course, in every virus, seeing that it’s the simplest kind of microorganism – as far as I remember – mutations can happen, but they’re of an accidental nature.

And when you take the RNA molecule, not DNA – they have RNA – and there’s a part of the genome that’s clearly been carved out and another one inserted in its place – and this happens 3 or 4 times …

It is perfectly obvious that the Chinese scientists have figured this out – it was artificially created and purposefully spread, initially in Wuhan.

They had 2 kinds, 2 viral strains. Okay now. And what about Italy, what happened there? How come a strain that is even more dangerous than the Chinese one suddenly appears in Italy? I think now they have a few thousand infected and around 1000 have already died.

But again, 100x more people die in Italy from flu, pneumonia, scrofula and hepatitis. But we don’t talk about that. Instead, we are being served special political information propaganda, psycho-informative propaganda.

[This is a] special psycho-informative operation of the world globalist mass media that is serving the behind-the-scene Zionist liberal powers that are creating this terror right now. This is why we need to deal with this phenomenon as we would with a special operation that is conducted in the form of command and staff exercises. Now they’re looking at who’s obeying and who’s not.

In China, they introduced strict measures. But, then comrade Xi went to Wuhan and put the pro-American party faction who took that road in their place. In China, not everything is smooth there.

They have, let’s call them that – a pro-Chinese (patriotic) faction, that’s somewhat close to us, which is associated with Xi Jinping. And there are obviously pro-American ex-Komsomol members that are money-oriented or simply put – have their focus on the ‘dough’ (money). And they, of course, tried to use the coronavirus in Wuhan to gain certain economic and political benefits.

Comrade Xi put them all in their place and, consequently, it was over with the virus in China. And then it started in Europe. Accordingly, we as a military intelligence, look at “who” (it is obvious) and “where” (it is also obvious).

Europe and China are two geo-economic adversaries of the USA. And this is where they injected this virus.

This virus also has a 4th dimension as well – the economic one. The first is the religious one – destruction of people on Earth, reducing the population numbers. The second one is to establish political control over humanity.

The third one is the financial deflation of that gigantic financial bubble. 

And the fourth dimension is the elimination of their geo-economic competition.

This I’m telling you from the perspective of an officer from the Defence and Strategic Studies of the General Staff of the Armed Forces. This is my assessment of the current epidemic…

Now, the main efforts of the behind-the-scenes world powers are focused on causing disruption in China and Western Europe. And Russia is their target on 2 accounts: they want to reduce our population numbers and cleanse our territory. That is still to come. Yes…

So, I’m speaking as a military doctor – epidemiologist and parasitologist. Until we’re able to get rid of our internal parasites who rule over us, we won’t be able to tackle other parasites.

World’s Most Prestigious Medical Journal Roasts Facebook Over ‘Inaccurate, Incompetent & Irresponsible’ Fact Check

The Machiavellian quote (sic) that “if you’re going to come at the king, you best not miss,” may be about to bite Mark Zuckerberg and his army of fact-checking mercenaries.

While Zuckerberg may feel omnipotent atop his opaque algo-world but the so-called ‘fact-checkers’ – so expert at shutting down any narrative-conflicting-information (on behalf of, and often at the behest of, the Biden administration) – may have met their match by claiming that one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious medical journals delivered “false information” that “could mislead people.”

Bombshell That Went Virtually Unreported in the Corporate Media: Facebook Court Filing ADMITS ‘Fact Checks’ Are Just A Matter Of Opinion.

As we detailed in early NovemberThe British Medical Journal (BMJ) – a weekly peer-reviewed medical trade journal, published by the trade union the British Medical Association – published a whistleblower report calling into question data integrity and regulatory oversight issues surrounding Pfizer’s pivotal phase III Covid-19 vaccine trial.

Brook Jackson, a now-fired regional director at Ventavia Research Group, revealed to The BMJ that vaccine trials at several sites in Texas last year had major problems – including falsified data, broke fundamental rules, and were ‘slow’ to report adverse reactions. 

When she notified superiors of the issues she found, they fired her.

“A regional director who was employed at the research organisation Ventavia Research Group has told The BMJ that the company falsified data, unblinded patients, employed inadequately trained vaccinators, and was slow to follow up on adverse events reported in Pfizer’s pivotal phase III trial. Staff who conducted quality control checks were overwhelmed by the volume of problems they were finding. After repeatedly notifying Ventavia of these problems, the regional director, Brook Jackson, emailed a complaint to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Ventavia fired her later the same day. Jackson has provided The BMJ with dozens of internal company documents, photos, audio recordings, and emails.” – The BMJ

Very soon after, as the worrisome story went viral, BMJ soon would get a taste of what Facebook, Google, and others are doing to independent media platforms. As TrialSiteNews.com reportseven though BMJ is one of the most prominent medical journals and the information was rigorously peer-reviewed, strange things started occurring.

For example, readers would try to post some of the information on social media such as Facebook to share with their networks. But “some reported being unable to share it [the information].” Moreover, those individuals that were simply sharing this content, peer-reviewed from The BMJ, were warned by Facebook that, “Independent fact-checkers concluded, “This information could mislead people.”

biden's bodyguards facebook and twitter

Moreover, they were told, “Those trying to post the article were informed by Facebook that people who repeatedly share ‘false information’ might have their posts moved lower in Facebook’s News Feed.” 

In addition, some group administrators received notices from Facebook that the information was “partly false.”

Readers were sent to a “fact check” performed by Lead Stories, a third-party fact-checker. 

And so, as possibly the top experts in the world when it comes to medical research information, BMJ has now been forced to fact-check the ‘fact-checkers’.

In a no-holds-barred ‘open letter to Mark Zuckerberg’, the editors exposed that ‘fact-check’ as “inaccurate, incompetent, and irresponsible.”

Having received no response from Facebook or from Lead Stories, after requesting the removal of the “fact checking” label, the BMJ’s editors raise a “wider concern”:

We are aware that The BMJ is not the only high quality information provider to have been affected by the incompetence of Meta’s fact checking regime…

Rather than investing a proportion of Meta’s substantial profits to help ensure the accuracy of medical information shared through social media, you have apparently delegated responsibility to people incompetent in carrying out this crucial task.

Fact checking has been a staple of good journalism for decades.

What has happened in this instance should be of concern to anyone who values and relies on sources such as The BMJ.

Additionally, ‘goopthink’ offered more anti-censorship fire and brimstone in an eloquent comment at ycombinator:

In addition to the points raised by BMJ and in the comments below, there is a limit to what independent fact checking can accomplish.

For example, are their fact checkers conducting their own scientific experiments validating claims and outcomes of a scientific paper? Are fact checkers reaching out to sources from a news article and verifying quoted information? When “breaking news” or “scoops” are reported presenting totally new information about the world, how can that be verified against other information that – by virtue of something being new – cannot be verified by other preexisting sources?

If the fact checking process is limited to verification based on other information that is currently available, and if the fact checking process cannot distinguish between factual information and the opinions people hold as a result of that information, the outcome will be an inevitable echo chamber that reinforces currently dominant views or whatever preexisting biases are present.

… and that is exactly what the establishment wants.

Bombshell That Went Virtually Unreported in the Corporate Media: Facebook Court Filing ADMITS ‘Fact Checks’ Are Just A Matter Of Opinion.

Full letter from The BMJ below(emphasis ours):

Open Letter From The BMJ To Mark Zuckerberg

Dear Mark Zuckerberg,

We are Fiona Godlee and Kamran Abbasi, editors of The BMJ, one of the world’s oldest and most influential general medical journals. We are writing to raise serious concerns about the “fact checking” being undertaken by third party providers on behalf of Facebook/Meta.

In September, a former employee of Ventavia, a contract research company helping carry out the main Pfizer covid-19 vaccine trial, began providing The BMJ with dozens of internal company documents, photos, audio recordings, and emails. These materials revealed a host of poor clinical trial research practices occurring at Ventavia that could impact data integrity and patient safety. We also discovered that, despite receiving a direct complaint about these problems over a year ago, the FDA did not inspect Ventavia’s trial sites.

The BMJ commissioned an investigative reporter to write up the story for our journal. The article was published on 2 November, following legal review, external peer review and subject to The BMJ’s usual high level editorial oversight and review.

But from November 10, readers began reporting a variety of problems when trying to share our article. Some reported being unable to share it. Many others reported having their posts flagged with a warning about “Missing context … Independent fact-checkers say this information could mislead people.” Those trying to post the article were informed by Facebook that people who repeatedly share “false information” might have their posts moved lower in Facebook’s News Feed. Group administrators where the article was shared received messages from Facebook informing them that such posts were “partly false.”

Readers were directed to a “fact check” performed by a Facebook contractor named Lead Stories.

We find the “fact check” performed by Lead Stories to be inaccurate, incompetent and irresponsible.

  • It fails to provide any assertions of fact that The BMJ article got wrong
  • It has a nonsensical title: “Fact Check: The British Medical Journal Did NOT Reveal Disqualifying And Ignored Reports Of Flaws In Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine Trials”
  • The first paragraph inaccurately labels The BMJ a “news blog”
  • It contains a screenshot of our article with a stamp over it stating “Flaws Reviewed,” despite the Lead Stories article not identifying anything false or untrue in The BMJ article
  • It published the story on its website under a URL that contains the phrase “hoax-alert”

We have contacted Lead Stories, but they refuse to change anything about their article or actions that have led to Facebook flagging our article.

We have also contacted Facebook directly, requesting immediate removal of the “fact checking” label and any link to the Lead Stories article, thereby allowing our readers to freely share the article on your platform.

There is also a wider concern that we wish to raise. We are aware that The BMJ is not the only high quality information provider to have been affected by the incompetence of Meta’s fact checking regime. To give one other example, we would highlight the treatment by Instagram (also owned by Meta) of Cochrane, the international provider of high quality systematic reviews of the medical evidence. Rather than investing a proportion of Meta’s substantial profits to help ensure the accuracy of medical information shared through social media, you have apparently delegated responsibility to people incompetent in carrying out this crucial task. Fact checking has been a staple of good journalism for decades. What has happened in this instance should be of concern to anyone who values and relies on sources such as The BMJ.

We hope you will act swiftly: specifically to correct the error relating to The BMJ’s article and to review the processes that led to the error; and generally to reconsider your investment in and approach to fact checking overall.

Best wishes,

Fiona Godlee, editor in chief

Kamran Abbasi, incoming editor in chief

The BMJ

Competing interests:

As current and incoming editors in chief, we are responsible for everything The BMJ contains.

It appears the ‘fact-checkers’ have some facts of their own to check… or otherwise admit they are simply there – as Fauci and Collins collusion was exposed this week – to maintain the propaganda peace for whoever is pulling the strings.

CONFIRMED: US Taxpayers Are Funding UN-Supported ‘Money Cards’ For Illegal Migrants

Cash debit cards are being handed out not only to illegal immigrants but to “repeat border crossers.” Todd Bensman reports on one of his trips to Reynosa, Mexico’s migrant camp where he took photo documentation of a United Nations-supported International Organization for Migration (IOM) handing out the money.

us taxpayers are funding un supported ‘money cards’ for illegal migrants

Bensman writes:

One of two workers at a plastic folding table inside the Reynosa camp, which was filled to capacity with at least 1,200 mostly U.S.-expelled Central Americans, said they were distributing the cards for IOM to help migrants waiting until they cross the Rio Grande at greater leisure to claim asylum, for which most will be declared ineligible years later.

Many parents, for instance, got about $400 every 15 days, I was told, or $800 a month if they were still there to collect it, although the support level varied.

migrant cards un.jpg

When Bensman tweeted the photos he took, Republican lawmakers were outraged, as they saw the images as evidence that the U.S. taxpayer-funded 10M was providing material support to an ongoing mass migration harmful to America’s national interest.”Bensman admits “when I took the photos, I wasn’t exactly sure of exactly what I was seeing in Reynosa.”But, he continues, “here’s what I have learned since: The money card is confirmed beyond doubt, but also ‘hard cash in envelopes’ and ‘movement assistance’; and an online IOM ‘Emergency Manual’ describes what I saw as part of a program it terms ‘Cash-Based Interventions,’ or CBIs.”Therefore, Bensman investigative report continues:A couple of weeks later, Texas Rep. Lance Gooden, R-Texas, and 11 other House Republican co-sponsors introduced the “No Tax Dollars for the United Nations Immigration Invasion Act” bill. It would prohibit the $3.8 billion in contributions currently proposed in the White House 2022 budget to the IOM and other UN-supported organizations. A Daily Caller story that broke news of the bill’s introduction quoted Gooden citing my Reynosa photos……So, for starters, country-specific IOM “Cash Working Groups” are indeed coordinating the handouts of the cash-holding plastic cards I saw (referred to as prepaid debit cards, e-wallets and e-cards) to intending U.S. border crossers in Reynosa, Mexico. But it turns out that is just an iceberg tip. The IOM is handing out cash and other material support to intending illegal border crossers in as many as 100 other shelters it helped build, expand, or supports from Central America north.
Some form of this has been around for years, but starting with a mass-migration event and Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy in 2019, the IOM supercharged the program and “institutionalized” it. This doubled the countries where it is used in 2020 and increased by 77 percent the number of recipients to 1.6 million worldwide, according to an annual 2020 IOM report. That would include Mexico.The IOM Emergency Manual document says this cash assistance also includes less-seeable bank transfers, mobile transfers, and e-vouchers that go to intending illegal border crossers en route or at least temporarily blocked like many of those I saw and interviewed in Reynosa. In addition to those and the pre-paid plastic cards, the IOM says in its Emergency Manual that it also sometimes hands out “cash in envelopes (hard cash).” No details are offered on that.Many payments are given as “unconditional; unrestricted cash transfers” for “multi-purpose use,” the manual says. Still other handouts subsidize the lodging, rent, and utilities of intending border crossers for “safe tenure, to reduce the risk of forced eviction.”Source:

Again And Again: NO JAIL For Cop Who Admitted To Raping A Child For Years

When he was just 13-years-old, the victim of Byrnes Mill officer Ryan Shomaker was raped. The abuse would last years as the boy transitioned from a middle school student to high school, and this week, after attempting to seek justice for years, this abused boy found out that his rapist will not be going to jail.

again and again no jail for cop who admitted to the repeated rape of a child

Shomaker, 48, admitted to the abuse and pleaded guilty to second-degree sodomy, not once, but twice. On Dec 2 in Jefferson County, and on Nov. 22 in St. Louis County, Shomaker admitted to the crimes against this boy.

In Jefferson County, Shomaker was charged with first-degree statutory sodomy, an unclassified felony punishable by five years to life in prison, and in St. Louis County he was charged with two counts of sodomy. However, he was allowed to plea down to one count each of second-degree sodomy.

As the Leader reports, on Dec. 2, Jefferson County Div. 5 Circuit Judge Victor Melenbrink sentenced Shomaker to seven years in prison in the Jefferson County case, and St. Louis County Circuit Judge Joseph Dueker sentenced Shomaker to seven years in the St. Louis County case.

Despite these sentences, after the fact, Shomaker’s sentences were both suspended and this child rapist was given just 5 years probation.

Shomaker’s attorney called the lack of jail for the child rapist, “a fair outcome.”

“It was a negotiated resolution with both counties,” Joseph Wayne Flees II said according to the Leader. “We feel it addresses some of the potential concerns the state may have had in the case with their victim. It is essentially a fair outcome.”

According to court documents, Shomaker met his victim on an app in 2014 when he was just 13. The abuse continued for the next four years until the victim worked up enough courage to come forward.

After the victim came forward, Shomaker “separated” from the Byrnes Mill Police Department on Oct. 31, 2018. His case has been moving through the courts ever since.

The reason Shomaker was charged in two different counties was due to the fact that the abuse took place in multiple jurisdictions. According to the probable-cause statement, the victim told a Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office deputy that Shomaker sexually molested him multiple times during his juvenile years, “at least two of which were within the Jefferson County jurisdiction.”

The first time they met, the boy was taken back to Shomaker’s home where he was sodomized by the officer, according to court documents. Just three days later, Shomaker found the boy again, where he was taken to a parking lot in House Springs, where Shomaker abused the child again.

This pattern unfolded for years and despite text messages proving that Shomaker knew he was doing this to a child, this monster will not be going to jail.

Diary Of Joe Biden’s Daughter Reveals: Child Sex Trauma, Drug Abuse, Resentment For Her Father

Ashley Biden’s diary is the subject of a criminal investigation by federal authorities. The diary’s content and text have ended up online, and passages in which Biden writes about her father, US President Joe Biden, are causing controversy.

The diary began when the author was at the Florida Rehabilitation Center, which then goes onto describing her romantic interests, a marriage that later crumbled apart, the battle with drug and sex addictions, and her family life when her father ran for the position of president.

Who Is Ashley Biden?

diary of joe biden's daughter reveals child sex trauma, drug abuse, resentment for her father

Ashley Blazer Biden is an American social worker, activist, philanthropist, and fashion designer. Her parents are U.S. President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden.

She served as the executive director of the Delaware Center for Justice from 2014 to 2019. Prior to her administrative role at the center, she worked in the Delaware Department of Services for Children, Youth, and Their Families.

Biden founded the fashion company Livelihood, which partners with the online retailer Gilt Groupe to raise money for community programs focused on eliminating income inequality in the United States, launching it at New York Fashion Week in 2017. She is married to physician Howard Krein.

Ashley Biden’s Diary

Ashley Biden’s diary is the subject of a criminal investigation by federal authorities. The content and text of the diary were published by a conservative news site before the 2020 presidential election, but it didn’t get much attention until now.

Now the New York Times is accusing a woman named Aimee Harris of being the person who gave it to Project Veritas, which is under investigation for its role in acquiring the diary.

The diary’s content and text have ended up online, and passages in which Biden writes about her father, President Joe Biden, are causing controversy (download link below):

With a few redactions made into the diary so as to hold back the identities of private individuals, the media are now able to fully publish the diary with 112 pages that was identified by the whistleblower as belonging to Ashley Biden.

The National File received the document through the means of a whistleblower who feared the media organization that hired him would not publish it in the penultimate days prior to the presidential election.

The whistleblower went to the lengths of hiring an expert who was able to verify that the diary was indeed that of Ashley Biden despite having a recording from Ashley Biden herself that admitted the diary was hers.

A recording of the said whistleblower elucidating on the efforts he went to so as to verify the authenticity of the diary is in the possession of the media.

Within the recording, the whistleblower also adds that his media outlet chose against publishing the documents after being pressured by a competing media company.

The media outlets have already reported quite a few stunning discoveries from within the diary already, which included the author believing that she was a victim of sexual assault as a child and shared “probably not appropriate” showers with her own father.

It also contains the author’s entries that detail substance abuse, entries on the author’s failed crumbling marriage alongside multiple affairs, entries showing the family fearing a scandal over their brother’s new home, and entries showing deep depth of the resentment against her father for his money, control, and emotional manipulation tactics.

The Only Study Claiming Surgical Masks Work Has Just Fallen Apart

The main study that media outlets and the government used to prove that surgical masks are effective has just completely fallen apart.

the only study claiming surgical masks work has just fallen apart

In the initially published piece, the authors did not post the raw number of seropositive cases in their study, preventing anyone from computing standard statistical analyses of their results. Many experts also objected to the number of statistical regressions run to pull signals out of their very complex intervention.

Recently, the authors finally released their code and data.https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=true&embedId=twitter-widget-0&features=eyJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2hvcml6b25fdHdlZXRfZW1iZWRfOTU1NSI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJodGUiLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3NwYWNlX2NhcmQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib2ZmIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH19&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1463617857741279241&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fhumansarefree.com%2F2021%2F12%2Fstudy-claiming-surgical-masks-work-has-imploded.html&sessionId=a0ca057e4fb2d1dc1ed4d761967c64403109e7df&theme=light&widgetsVersion=f001879%3A1634581029404&width=550px

Following the release of their data, statistical analyses were able to be conducted. There were 1,106 symptomatic individuals confirmed seropositive in the control group and 1,086 such individuals in the treatment group. The total difference between the two groups was miniscule: only 20 cases out of over 340,000 individuals over a span of 8 weeks.

In a post by one author who ran an analysis following the release of the data, he described several other issues with the study:

“The intervention was highly complex and included a mask promotion campaign and education about other mitigation measures including social distancing. Moreover, individuals were only added to the study if they consented to allow the researchers to visit and survey their households.

“There was a large differential between the control and treatment groups here, with 95% consenting in the treatment group but only 92% consenting in control. This differential alone could wash away the difference in observed cases. Finally, symptomatic seropositivity is a crude measure of covid as the individuals could have been infected before the trial began.”

The CDC Caught Hiding Data About Mask Efficacy In Schools

According to a recent report in NY Magazine, the CDC covered up what one of their own studies found about masking children in schools.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a notable, yet mostly ignored, large-scale study of COVID transmission in American schools at the end of May.

The findings in their study cast doubt on the impact of things like distancing, hybrid models, classroom barriers, HEPA filters, and, most notably, requiring student masking.

In the CDC’s study, they found no statistically significant benefit to any of these. In other words, “these measures could not be said to be effective.”

Despite the findings in their own study, the CDC a month later recommended that all kids starting at the age of 2 wear masks regardless of vaccination status.

The Vast Majority Of Scientific Research Show Masks Are Ineffective At Preventing The Spread Of Respiratory Illnesses

The randomized clinical trial (RCT) is recognized as the most credible research design for clinical investigation. The goal of the RCT is to achieve a valid comparison of the effects of an investigational treatment or treatments with the control treatment (standard of care) in the target patient population.

Contrary to popular belief, every single RCT ever performed on mask usage and prevention of infection for laboratory-confirmed influenza, the common cold, or other respiratory viruses shows that masks are ineffective.

The CDC recently even conceded that they are not aware of any randomized control trials that conclude masks are effective at preventing the spread of coronavirus, or any respiratory virus for that matter.https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=true&embedId=twitter-widget-1&features=eyJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2hvcml6b25fdHdlZXRfZW1iZWRfOTU1NSI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJodGUiLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3NwYWNlX2NhcmQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib2ZmIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH19&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1435957090686750721&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fhumansarefree.com%2F2021%2F12%2Fstudy-claiming-surgical-masks-work-has-imploded.html&sessionId=a0ca057e4fb2d1dc1ed4d761967c64403109e7df&theme=light&widgetsVersion=f001879%3A1634581029404&width=550px

“Among 2862 randomized participants, 2371 completed the study and accounted for 5180 HCW-seasons. … Among outpatient health care personnel, N95 respirators vs medical masks as worn by participants in this trial resulted in no significant difference in the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

Long, Y. et al. (2020) “Effectiveness of N95 respirators versus surgical masks against influenza: A systematic review and meta-analysis,” J Evid Based Med. 2020; 1–9.

“A total of six RCTs involving 9,171 participants were included. There were no statistically significant differences in preventing laboratory-confirmed influenza, laboratory-confirmed respiratory viral infections, laboratory-confirmed respiratory infection, and influenza-like illness using N95 respirators and surgical masks. Meta-analysis indicated a protective effect of N95 respirators against laboratory-confirmed bacterial colonization (RR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.43-0.78). The use of N95 respirators compared with surgical masks is not associated with a lower risk of laboratory-confirmed influenza.”

“Self-reported assessment of clinical outcomes was prone to bias. Evidence of a protective effect of masks or respirators against verified respiratory infection (VRI) was not statistically significant.

Jefferson T, Del Mar CB, Dooley L, (2020) “A meta-analysis included 44 new RCTs and cluster-RCTs in this update, bringing the total number of randomized trials to 67.

This analysis concluded that there is low certainty evidence from all trials reviewed that wearing a mask may make little or no difference to the outcome of respiratory illness compared to not wearing a mask.

Lipp A, Edwards P (2005) “Disposable surgical face masks: a systematic review.”

“Two randomized controlled trials were included involving a total of 1453 patients. In a small trial there was a trend towards masks being associated with fewer infections, whereas in a large trial there was no difference in infection rates between the masked and unmasked group.”

masks don't work

A fairly recent study from Denmark involving a sample size of 6,000 participants found that “there was no statistically significant difference between those who wore masks and those who did not when it came to being infected by Covid-19.”

Another ecological study of state mask mandates and their use – which included data from the winter case spike – has found that widespread mask-wearing didn’t slow the spread of COVID-19.

The study, conducted by the University of Louisville using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, found that “80% of US states mandated masks during the COVID-19 pandemic,” but while “mandates induced greater mask compliance, [they] did not predict lower growth rates when community spread was low (minima) or high (maxima).” The study also found that “mask mandates and use are not associated with lower SARS-CoV-2 spread among US states.”

Additionally, the vast majority of gold-standard scientific researchcompiled over multiple decades, conclude masks are completely ineffective at preventing the spread of respiratory illnesses.https://tv.gab.com/channel/realredelephants/embed/never-forget-what-they-have-done-61738664acd7072584b33c28

Exactly Which Dystopian Novel Are We Living In? Brave New World, 1984, Fahrenheit 451?

There’s a debate going on among the disaffected/ terrified over which dystopian novel we’re now living in.

As John Rubino remarks, some point to social media addiction and designer drugs to suggest Brave New World.

Others see mass surveillance and pandemic lockdowns as putting us squarely in 1984.

Still others cite online censorship and cancel culture as favoring Fahrenheit 451.

Each of these opinions seems valid, which is confusing.

A prisoner should know the shape of their cell. So it’s a relief to find out that someone (not sure who) has settled the argument by creating the following Venn diagram (Tweeted by our friend David Morgan).

Turns out we’re not in a single dystopian novel. We’re in all of them simultaneously.
