F-16s, Romanian bases, and NATO pilots

I shall return yet again to the prospect of “Made in the USA” F-16s sallying forth boldly into eastern Ukraine to "teach the cabbage heads what Airpower(capitalized) really means."

From what information I've been able to glean in recent weeks, it does in fact look as though the US is aggressively setting up air ops housekeeping in Romania, very near the Black Sea coast — ostensibly to serve as the base of F-16 operations against Russia.

I submit that the preparation of this base is implicit proof that they have long-since assembled and, likely for many months, been honing the skills and teamwork of a few squadrons of "NATO-affiliated contractor pilots" — and the plan must be to use them.

You see, if the “true plan” were to put a dozen woefully undertrained Ukrainian apprentice kamikazes behind the wheel of 1980s vintage F-16s, and then wave them off on a glorious one-way mission into the wild blue yonder ... well, you don't need much of a logistical hub for that operation.

So, if they're really working to prepare what is reputed to be the "largest NATO base in Europe", the logical conclusion is that it is intended to house, maintain, and sustain at least a couple squadrons of NATO "volunteer" pilots flying much later F-16 models than the European boneyard relics Ukraine has long been promised.

Hey, I say field five full squadrons, and outfit at least a couple of them with the latest model F-16 Vipers.

Go big or go home.

Make it the last “all in” roll of the wunderwaffe dice.

Never mind that literally no one in the US air fleet, at any level, has any experience whatsoever in high-intensity air combat operations against an enemy that:

- can match or exceed you with high numbers of superior air frames

- will be flying from interior lines, with well-established logistical infrastructure

- backed by high numbers of the finest layered air defenses on the planet

- with far superior magazine depth

- and will significantly outrange NATO platforms in almost every plausible scenario.

Oh, yeah. And I almost forgot: anyone (including the perpetually catastrophist Russian murmurers) who believes for a moment that Russia will not act to obliterate a NATO base in Romania under such circumstances ... well, that's just silly talk.

Of course, they will. They'll hit it hard. Really hard — with a strike package that exceeds anything ever thrown at a Ukrainian target over the course of this war.

It could well become the most intensely pressure-packed moment in modern times — a situation exceptionally fraught with the possibility of catastrophic miscalculation.

Every time I stop to think about these things, I just shake my head at the obvious stupidity of it all.

If the Imperial Masters of War actually attempt such an air campaign against Russia, not only will the entire operation almost certainly end up being a logistical debacle of truly epic proportions, but the combat results will be shockingly one-sided — disastrous to the point the US will very likely feel compelled to cease operations after just a few days, and try to spin it into some sort of "bold statement” that "achieved its purposes".

But it will be ugly. Exceedingly ugly. And everybody that is anybody of consequence in power structures around the world will know the score and understand exactly what it means.

GLOBAL RISK

New Nuclear Bomb Training At Dutch Air Base

12.13.23|3 MIN READ|TEXT BY HANS KRISTENSEN

The Dutch air base at Volkel appears to have started integration training with the new U.S. B61-12 guided nuclear gravity bomb in 2021, even before the bomb went into full-scale production and entered the U.S. stockpile in 2022.

An image included in a Sandia National Laboratories video from early-2022 that snapshots accomplishments from 2021 shows what appears to be a B61-12 training shape hanging under the right wing of an F-16 (see image below).

F16 with nuclear bomb

The Dutch air force apparently started training for the new U.S. B61-12 guided nuclear bomb in 2021.

posted on a public forum shows the outline of a vault inside a Protective Aircraft Shelter at Volkel Air Base (see below).

Eleven aircraft shelters at Volkel are equipped with an underground nuclear weapons storage vault.

Although the training B61-12 is mounted on an F-16, the weapon is not yet assigned to the NATO fighter jets. The B61-12 has entered the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile, but it is so far only assigned to the B-2 strategic bomber, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. The fighter jets (F-15E, F-16, Tornado) have completed integration flights but had, as of recently, not yet been assigned the B61-12 (see table below). The new F-35A that will take over the nuclear strike role at Volkel and other European bases had also not been assigned the B61-12 yet, but U.S. European Command training was scheduled to start in 2023.

The new B61-12 nuclear bomb had, until recently, only been assigned to the B-2 strategic bomber not yet to dual-capable fighter aircraft.

The 312^th Squadron of the 1^st Wing at Volkel Air Base is part of the so-called NATO nuclear sharing arrangement where the United States equips Dutch F-16s (and aircraft of five other NATO countries: Belgium, Germany, Greece, Italy, Turkey) and trains their pilots to employ U.S. B61 nuclear bombs in war. During peacetime, the weapons are under the custody of U.S. Air Force units (the 703^rd Munitions Support Squadron (MUNSS) at Volkel).

The location of the USAF nuclear weapons custodial unit at Volkel Air Base is written in tiles.

On December 8, 2023, the 312^th Squadron performed what is known as an elephant walk where 14 F-16s were displayed on the runway at the same time. A similar display was performed in 2021. At least one of the pilots in the 2023 event can be seen wearing a helmet visor with a nuclear weapons explosion mushroom cloud (see image below). It is possible, but unknown, that this is the helmet of the commander of the 312^th Squadron.

One of the pilots in the December 2023 elephant walk at Volkel Air Base wore a nuclear mushroom cloud design on his helmet visor.

The nuclear weapons upgrade at Volkel Air Base is part of a broad nuclear modernization program of U.S. non-strategic nuclear forces in Europe that includes replacement of aircraft, bombs, base infrastructure, nuclear command and control, readiness level, operational planning, and public visibility.

There is no public information that the B61-12 bombs have been shipped to Europe yet but the C-17A nuclear transport aircraft has been cleared and the first shipments could potentially begin next year. If so, they would replace the estimated 100 B61-3/4 nuclear bombs currently deployed in Europe (see figure below).

The constant rain of US propaganda has rendered comatose even the survival instinct of most Americans.

Introduction

I have read Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s new book, “The Wuhan Cover-Up and the Terrifying Bioweapons Arm Race”. It is a masterpiece of research, investigation, connecting the dots, and contextualizing for what is probably modern humanity’s most pressing issue. While Kennedy and I disagree on many key points, I cannot underestimate how important this book is in informing you about the role bioweapons play in modern politics, geopolitics, economics and war.

I am a co-founder of the Bioweapon Truth Commission and the curator of its Global Online Library. Yet, I learned so much from this book that it left my jaw hanging. As I was reading Kennedy’s book, I kept thinking two things. First, I can’t believe this man is running for president of the United States and will unfortunately not get elected. And secondly, if I ever needed a trial lawyer, he would be the one I’d like to have.

I have been subscribing to Kennedy’s newsletter and website, the Children’s Health Defense (https://childrenshealthdefense.org/), which has thankfully enhanced my arc of awareness that I never knew before, about vaccines and corrupt medical practices, especially since the advent of Western mRNA genetic modification shots (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/03/07/its-all-here-the-china-rising-radio-sinoland-covid-19-chemical-and-bioweapon-file-film-and-tape-library/). This new book really ties together the nexus between vaccines, Big Pharma, the military, and the CIA.

“The Wuhan Cover-Up and the Terrifying Bioweapons Arm Race”, coupled with Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s previous book, “The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health”, are a one-two punch to really explain so much of what is going on behind our headlines today (https://www.amazon.com/stores/Robert-F.-Kennedy-Jr./author/B09KQXYQ9Y). I have spent many hours poring over “The Wuhan Cover-Up” and many more writing this book review. I have meticulously annotated it and looked up scores of references that are in the back of the book. It has well over 2,000 references. I can only think of one other author who writes investigative books like this that are so thoroughly researched, and that is John Potash, whom I have had the pleasure of interviewing, and among many US government assassinations and subterfuge, covers RFK Jr’s father and uncle (www.chinarising.puntopress.com/search/?q=potash).

Without further ado, I strongly encourage everybody to read Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s last two books, “The Real Anthony Fauci” and “The Wuhan Cover-Up”. They will open your eyes to the sordid, corrupt and satanic Western underworld that is controlling much of humanity and trying to drive us into a totalitarian dystopia.

After reading them, hopefully it will give you and all of us ammunition to try to put a stop to the potential destruction of the human race. It is that important.

Here is the annotation for each entry,

RFKJ: are quotes from the book.

JJB: are my comments.

Many hyperlinks are provided that are in raw https://www. format.

The devil is in the many details. There is a lot here, so may I suggest hitting all the “RFKJ” and “JJB” references? These are extracts from the book and my comments, respectively. “Jeffrey Sachs” is also worth searching for.

My closing comments and observations are after all the page-by-page citations!

Detailed Book Review

Part One: The Road to Wuhan; JJB: This is an excellent summary table of chemical and biological weapon use around the world in the 20^th century. We can add genocidal Western atomic (chemical) warfare with the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Ugly-Hidden-History-Korea/dp/0926664069/).

Chapter 5: Downloading Ishii and His Henchmen: Japan’s Paperclip; JJB: The USA refuses to send Japanese BW war criminals to the postwar international trial. Instead, the US military brought these top leaders to Fort Detrick, Maryland, to launch the world’s biggest BW development programs, which continues to this day across the globe in America’s 330 bioweapon labs.

https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2023/07/17/cynthia-chungs-new-book-the-empire-on-which-the-black-sun-never-set-the-birth-of-international-fascism-and-anglo-american-foreign-policy-is-fabulous-as-is-our-discussion-china-rising-radio/). Operation Paperclip was later renamed DARPA, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

I was shocked to learn that the CIA has been and continues to lead the US’s bioweapon programs. I previously thought that it was the military and Big Pharma. No, it’s a three-headed monster.

I have written much about this (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2018/03/31/the-face-of-western-imperialism-exposed-by-ebola-from-china-rising-capitalist-roads-socialist-destinations/). Nevertheless, Robert F. Kenney Jr (RFKJ) amply shows that my previous citation of “hundreds of thousands attacked” is a gross underestimation. It’s in the millions and ongoing today. I see chemtrails all the time in the US and France. I never see them in China.

JJB: This does include America’s 330 BW production labs on every continent except Antarctica.

Yet, there is a clear difference between the USA versus USSR/Russia and China. The latter two have been repeatedly attacked with BW and chemical weapons (CW) by the prior, since 1945. There is no evidence that the latter have used their BW programs for offensive warfare. America has hundreds of BW development labs on every continent except Antarctica and surrounds the latter with them. Russia and China have no BW labs outside their boundaries.

Russia and China are proof that countries can develop BW-CW to know what to expect when attacked with germ warfare, but not use them on others. The USA and its vassals have been and continue to use BW and CW on their own citizens and all of their perceived enemies across the planet.

Chapter 17: Enter Dr. Anthony Fauci; RFKJ: Dr. Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) funds creation of first coronavirus chimera (genetically engineered) at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. They replaced a mouse spike protein with a feline one, jumping species.

JJB: NIAID is one of 27 bodies making up the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which is controlled by the US military and the CIA.

RFKJ: Dr. Fauci’s success with Kuo suggested that in principle he now had the capacity to teach animal pathogens to leap to humans, spread quickly, and kill more efficiently.

sic)) stopped calling the research “dual use” and rechristened it with the less menacing moniker, “gain-of-function”.

Chapter 23: The P3CO; JJB: HHS creates a protocol called “P3CO”: Potential Pandemic Pathogen Care and Oversight Framework, to vet GOF research.

Chapter 24: Peter Daszak Makes EcoHealth the Laundromat through Which the Pentagon, Spooks, and Public Health Technocrats Funnel Money and Bioweapons Technology to China; RFKJ: NIH has funded at least 60 scientific projects at the Wuhan lab, which is 63% of all of NIAID’s GOF budget. Most of this was laundered through EcoHealth Alliance and its President, Peter Daszak.

JJB: As we shall soon read, spoiler alert: illegal USA BW research could have been done in any the hundreds of American military BW labs around the world, but Wuhan was sought out for the mission. Why? Because the CIA wanted to spy on China.

JJB: As in the United States, it appears that most BSL-3 and BSL-4 labs are overseen by the Department of Defense and its affiliates. To say that the Wuhan Institute of Virology is overseen by the People’s Liberation Army is a tautology, just as is, “the US Army at Fort Detrick”. Ditto the Communist Party of China (CCP). You have to be a member of the CCP to be in Chinese military. It’s no different in the USA, where you have to support the capitalist system. Socialists and communists are not welcome.

Traditionally, biological warfare concerns have focused on a relatively limited, select group of naturally occurring pathogens viewed as having a set of desirable characteristics: 1) highly pathogenic, 2) readily available, 3) easily produced, 4) weaponizable, 5) stable, 6) infectious at a low dose, 7) easily transmissible, and 8) inspiring of fear.

Ralph Baric: With the advent of synthetic biology, recombinant DNA technology, reverse genetic approaches (i.e. the development of molecular clones of infectious genomes) and the identification of virulence alleles, not only are new avenues available for obtaining these pathogens, but more ominously, tools exist for simultaneously modifying the genomes for increased virulence, immunogenicity, transmissibility, host range and pathogenesis. Moreover, these approaches can be used to molecularly resurrect extinct human and animal pathogens, like the 1918 human influenza virus.

JJB: This is the psychopathic war criminal American, with Anthony Fauci’s taxpayer NIAID money laundered through Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance, who showed WIV how to weaponize germs. Why? Because the CIA wanted a presence there.

However, in the downloaded Archive.org book (link above), it does not say this. It says, “Ten million people to save lives, save countless wealth, can create a new era in the prevention and control of infectious diseases”!

Note: after downloading the Archive.org book in text format, I imported it into Word, searching “new era”. This passage is on page 298, with 1.27cm/0.5” margins all the way around.

Paper: Synthetic Viral Genomics: Risks and Benefits for Science and Society

Author: Ralph Baric, University of North Carolina Charlottesville

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/38000014_Synthetic_Viral_Genomics_Risks_and_Benefits_for_Science_and_Society

In December of 2007, Dr. Baric published an extraordinarily candid paper that explained his purpose in conducting such experiments and that set the stage for all future gain-of-function research. Thanks to Anthony Fauci, Dr. Baric is one of the top recipients of NIH funding. Some 200 grants from NIAID and NIH and hundreds of papers in his curriculum vitae have helped Dr. Baric earn his unofficial title as the “Godfather of Weaponized Viruses” and the world’s leading authority on coronaviruses.

Following Shiro Ishii’s strategy, the virology community and its government funders routinely claim that the purpose of gain-of-function science is to predict natural spillovers and to develop countermeasures vaccines. But Dr. Baric’s 2007 article unabashedly celebrates the recent revolutions in synthetic biology, genetic engineering, and cloning technologies as potential boons to a brave new era in bioweapons development. In contrast to his later statements, the Dr. Baric of 2007 adopted a refreshing frankness about the martial purpose of his gain-of-function dabbling. While Baric’s article periodically invokes the obligatory propaganda tropes that mask GOF as purely defensive or benevolent science, they seem like window dressing to an otherwise naked and giddy appeal to an audience of potential funders principally committed to developing bioweapons.

Dr. Baric begins by warning that traditional biodefense strategies are focused on the “small group of plant, animal, and human pathogens with bioweapons potential that occur in nature” and “counterterrorism think tanks anticipate that these particular threats will ameliorate over the next decade because of medical countermeasures, (e.g., drugs, vaccines, diagnostics)”. After suggesting Mother Nature has little more to offer in the way of weapons, Baric then proclaims that advances in genetic engineering and synthetic biology can be used to create new biological weapons able to evade these traditional medical defenses. He urges the bioweapons cartel to waste no time launching a new arms race by exploiting these new GOF technologies. “The technology to synthetically reconstruct genomes is fairly straightforward and will be used, if not by the United States, then by other Nations throughout the world. Given Baric’s central role in the GOF arena, his reflections lend a sinister context to the entire field of study.

In the years after Baric published this paper, bioweapons enthusiasts began “assessing the potential for viral spillover”, the new euphemism for bioweapons research and development. Some version of this core phrase suddenly became a ubiquitous contrivance for concealing bioweapons science in dozens of NIH, USAID, and NSF grant applications.

In the years leading up to his ominous 2007 paper, Baric had explored numerous techniques for coaxing animal viruses to become more deadly and to infect humans. All of these were inherently limited by the known difficulties of culturing coronaviruses. Already by 2002, Baric had perfected a technique, with the help of Mark Denison, that circumvents these difficulties.

Here is Baric’s 2002 study. Yount and Baric are at UNC, Denison is at Vanderbilt and Weiss is at the University of Pennsylvania.

JJB: It is Fauci, Baric and Daszak chasing after the Chinese, not the other way around.

JJB: It was Baric who wanted Shi’s field research to weaponize coronavirus genomes found by Shi, and he was happy to teach her his dark arts to get those genomes.

According to Baric: “We talked after the meeting. I asked her whether she’d be willing to make the sequences to either the SHC014 or WIV1 spike available after she published. And she was gracious enough to send us those sequences almost immediately – in fact, before she’d published”.

Baric’s specialty, synthesizing super infectious clones of naturally occurring viruses, solved one of the long-standing challenges of CoV research: the near impossibility of culturing most species in vitro.

JJB: Shi field discovered viruses, Baric weaponized them and with Daszak using Fauci’s NIH money, taught her how to do it.

JJB: Shi’s central problem? Who’s doing the weaponizing? It’s Baric’s project and goal to weaponize SHC014, not Shi’s. This war crime of Baric’s was a giant step towards creating COVID-19.

JJB: Why would Fauci, Baric and Daszak allow this, called by a Stanford University bioengineer, “an actual scandal” and other scientists, “It’s so recklessly dangerous”. Because the CIA wanted to spy on China at all costs.

By thanking Shi and calling Baric’s SARS-CoV virus “WIV1” in the 100% non-China study, the West’s Big Lie Propaganda Machine was locked and loaded to tar and feather the Chinese with COVID-19 and deftly deflect its true origins, going back to the USA’s weaponization of germs starting back in the 1960s, ongoing.

JJB: Shi? She was paid by Daszak to get the coronavirus genomes that Baric wanted to make COVID-19. Daszak’s chronic rule breaking? No, Fauci, Collins, Baric and Daszak are war criminals committing crimes against humanity and need to be brought before a Nurenberg 2.0, tried and hanged.

JJB: Chinese project? Who is doing MERS weaponization here? Fauci and Daszak are paying WIV to use its lab outside the USA during a supposed White House mandated GOF moratorium, which they totally ignored, with a quid pro quo to teach the Chinese the West’s dark arts.

JJB: Again, who is in the driver’s seat? Who are the teachers and who are the students? All the evidence shows that Baric and Daszak were doing the weaponizing, using virus strains found by the Chinese. It’s Daszak’s proposal to NIH, not Shi’s.

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/03/the-virus-hunting-nonprofit-at-the-center-of-the-lab-leak-controversy).

JJB: The Chinese did not know how to weaponize viruses until Fauci paid Daszak and Baric to teach them how to do it. Daszak was in Wuhan as a CIA asset, so that Langley could spy on China. Do you think the Chinese did not know what was going on, and would not want insider knowledge, knowing how much they have been a victim of Western/Japanese BW-CW attacks since 1839? I don’t either.

https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21066966/defuse-proposal.pdf).

JJB: No, Daszak is the awarded project leader/principal investigator and EcoHealth Alliance got the money, not Shi and Wuhan. Daszak is using the Chinese to weaponize viruses, with Baric’s dark arts.

JJB: This is clear evidence that Fauci, Collins, Daszak and Baric wanted to create what became COVID-19, to the point that they turned their Chinese students loose to get it done. Daszak also later admitted that WIV was not required to share its research notes with. No worries. Baric only needed the superbug, since he knew how to reverse engineer anything given to him, with his proverbial eyes closed.

JJB: This is Daszak’s responsibility to stop the show and inform NIH, not the responsibility of the Chinese. It’s his project and Fauci’s money paying for it.

JJB: Daszak was the teacher. The Chinese were the students. Fauci and Collins were the school principal and vice-principal. The principals and teacher are responsible for the students, not the other way around.

JJB: No, Daszak, as the Principal Investigator and Project Leader is responsible to tell the Chinese subcontractors to stop. He did not. Shi was the subordinate. It was the US that was paying China.

JJB: Feigned surprise? This phrase is not even mentioned in the Intercept article. This is gross propagandizing on the part of RFKJ (https://theintercept.com/2021/09/09/covid-origins-gain-of-function-research/).

JJB: Given that Daszak was working for the CIA, the latter knows how to apply political pressure. Nonetheless, what a pitiful statement that one can allow crimes against humanity to be approved, yet you get promoted up and up.

JJB: WIV is only mentioned three times and Dr. Shi only once in the 17-page Congressional letter to NIH Director Dr. Lawrence Tabak, DDS (https://d1dth6e84htgma.cloudfront.net/legacy/uploads/2022/04/4.25.22-Letter-to-Dr.-Lawrence-Tabak-2.pdf and https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/03/the-virus-hunting-nonprofit-at-the-center-of-the-lab-leak-controversy). Again, Daszak was the teacher, the Principal Investigator and Project Leader. The Chinese were the students and getting paid by Fauci and NIH to learn.

JJB: Given all the evidence, it seems this description should be reversed. Shi’s lab was a hired gun.

JJB: Shi Zhengli is the lead researcher, using Baric’s reverse genetics technology, Daszak’s hands-on help and NIH money to pay for it all. It is SARS-CoV weaponization.

DARPA turned it down, so you know how beyond-the-pale was Daszak’s Dr. Demento proposal.

JJB: …and Shi? Not true. Shi simply followed Baric’s instructions and copycatted them. She did nothing “pioneering”. She was Baric’s and Daszak’s student from the get-go and Fauci paid them to teach her.

RFKJ: In fact, since 1992, at least 14 publications have described adding a furin cleavage site to a virus that did not have one, including a study from WIV. 14 out of 14 times it makes the viruses nastier.

JJB: That’s exactly what happened. To wit – the World Military Games in Wuhan (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/04/02/godfree-roberts-shares-his-sars-cov-2-timeline-there-is-a-99-chance-it-should-be-called-the-yankee-coronavirus-china-rising-radio-sinoland-200402/).

JJB: This study shows that apparently, unbeknownst to Baric, the seamless ligation concealment gimmick does indeed leave its own minute but legible signature.

RFKJ: Furthermore, these same researchers discovered damning signature in the SARS CoV-2 genome. The authors of the study, a team of researchers from Duke University, University Clinics of Wurzberg and an industry group, identified a characteristic signature in the amino acid code, an indelible artifact that could only have emerged from Baric’s no-see-um methodology. By identifying the possible fingerprint of Baric’s methodology, the BioRxiv study connects the biological breadcrumbs that link Baric’s federally funded research to the global pandemic.

JJB: Give rise to liability for negligence? Or better yet Nuremberg 2.0? Why did Baric teach this method to the WIV? To hide what he and Daszak were doing there.

Chapter 51: Fauci Surely Knew the Wuhan Lab Was a Disaster from Which His Tiny Monsters Were Bound to Escape; JJB: The referenced timeline (Page(s) 160; July 2019) shows that COVID-19 was already in Spain in March 2019 and in Italy in September 2019 and highly likely around Fort Detrick, Maryland, USA in the spring and summer of 2019 (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/04/02/godfree-roberts-shares-his-sars-cov-2-timeline-there-is-a-99-chance-it-should-be-called-the-yankee-coronavirus-china-rising-radio-sinoland-200402/ and https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-circulating-in-italy-as-early-as-september-2019-scientists-claim-12133825).

JJB: given the shocking decades of leaks across the USA described in Chapter 27 above, this is truly the pot calling the kettle black.

JJB: I could not have said it better myself!

JJB: This makes no sense. How can Ben Hu and company be “patient zero” in November 2019, yet other fellow lab technicians spread it all over Wuhan in August, three months earlier? Given that it is already proven COVID-19 was in the West before the outbreak in Wuhan, it is much more likely that the CIA, DOD, Fauci, Daszak and Baric were pushing WIV to obfuscate, to cover Western asses all the way back to 1945. The US was the leader and financier of all this devilry. China was the subordinate student.

; RFKJ: The Chinese accused Washington of cultivating the COVID-19 bioweapon at Fort Detrick and then planting it in China during the October 2019 Military Games.

JJB: The results of the Games strongly suggest that the US team were not athletes, as traditional top-place competitors (Russia, China, Europe, etc.) fared as expected. Only the USA dropped to 35th place, below Tunisia, Namibia and Bulgaria. The USA got zero gold medals! They were the laughingstock of Chinese social media, being called “soy sauce soldiers”. Their hotel, the Oriental Mandarin is only 300 meters from the famed “ground zero” wet market. More likely, they were mostly bioweapon field technicians (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/04/02/godfree-roberts-shares-his-sars-cov-2-timeline-there-is-a-99-chance-it-should-be-called-the-yankee-coronavirus-china-rising-radio-sinoland-200402/ and https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2023/02/12/rogue-news-hosts-jeff-j-brown-to-discuss-all-about-the-real-china-transcript-and-podcast-china-rising-radio-sinoland-230212/ and https://web.archive.org/web/20200312031439/https://www.globalresearch.ca/china-coronavirus-shocking-update/5705196 and https://web.archive.org/web/20200312031319/https://www.globalresearch.ca/covid-19-further-evidence-virus-originated-us/5706078).

Chapter 56: Farrar, Money Magician. JJB: You can say that again! Farrar is another bioweapon CIA/MI6 asset.

JJB: the West did not adopt China’s Covid lockdown system. China and the world adopted all of it from the United States, whereupon it was pushed by the WHO, WEF and national governments around the world (https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/planning-preparedness/national-strategy-planning.html).

JJB: This surprised me, but on more thought, it seems to me that the WEF hopes to co-opt China. Many have tried to co-opt Baba Beijing over the decades, including the Rockefellers, Western governments etc. They have all failed. “Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer” – Michael Corleone in The Godfather Part II (https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/the-annual-summer-wef-meeting and https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202108/1230523.shtml). China is not hermit kingdom North Korea. Baba Beijing would be committing gross negligence if did not encourage its national companies to get in the WEF mosh pit and report back.

WEF is mostly funded by multi-national corporations (https://www.weforum.org/communities/forum-members/). The complete list is not found on the web, but Palantir Technologies, PayPal, Pinterest, Royal DSM and Huawei are mentioned. Here is a partial list from 2015, which has a number of Chinese companies (https://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_GGC_Members.pdf). As of January 2016, the community of Forum Members comprises more than 390 firms from over 60 countries.

JJB: this is classic psyops and psychological deflection away from the CIA/MI6 and onto China. All the evidence shows that China is following the lead of the CIA/DOD/NIH/EchoHealth cabal and all their subsidiary units. China has always been a student and subordinate of the West in bioweapons and still is.

JJB: But everybody in the world can pile on Shi Zhengli and the WIV.

JJB: This, after a Western research journal pulled their paper, proving that SARS-CoV-2 is manmade. Is is included in the Bioweapon Truth Commission Global Online Library (https://lanbro-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/jeff_brownlanglois_com/EbqRah7M7iVMvhU4Ew1Fc6QBXkYQ4o5NBSNpDrNGKMPwSQ?e=Jmj1Ar).

JJB: this is the Western pot calling the Chinese kettle black.

JJB: Thacker was talking about Western science writers, even commenting about a colleague.

JJB: Based on all the available evidence presented in this book review, this is flipping reality on its head. It was Daszak who was using the Chinese and hiding under their skirts, along with Fauci and Baric. It is Jeremy Farrar of Wellcome Trust who has to use burner phones to do his bioweapon communication.

JJB: True, along with Daszak, Baric, Collins and Farrar, all CIA/DOD assets, all war criminals who deserve Nurenberg 2.0.

JJB: Horton was carrying CIA/DOD’s water. Based on all the available evidence presented in this book review, this is flipping reality on its head. It was Daszak who was using the Chinese and hiding under their skirts, along with Fauci and Baric. It is Jeremy Farrar of Wellcome Trust who has to use burner phones to do his bioweapon communication.

JJB: Bill Gates is one of the most powerful actors on the world stage and needs to join the other Westerners at Nurenberg 2.0.

JJB: Now let me see if I’ve got this straight. In the previous chapter, RFKJ said that Bill Gates, along with the Wellcome Trust, CEPI and Gavi, controls the World Health Organization.

Now, it’s a vassal of China? Here are some facts about China’s limited role in the WHO,

WHO

JJB: WHO funding is 20% from member countries, based on GDP, called Assessed Contributions. Therefore, China is the second biggest member contributor after the USA, then in descending GDP, Japan, Germany, UK, France, Brazil, etc (assessed-contributions-overview-for-all-member-states-as-at-31-december-2021.pdf (who.int).

In the report above, China contributed in US$28,719,905 out of a total Assessed Contributions = $246,763,095, or 11.6%. However, this is only 20% of the total WHO budget, so China’s total contributions to WHO are only 2.3%.

The other 80% are Voluntary Contributions. They presumably come from foundations, trusts, corporations, NGOs, etc (https://www.statista.com/chart/21372/assessed-contributions-to-the-world-health-organization/).

WHO Core Voluntary Contributions 2022 by country, in descending order: United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, France, Ireland. China makes no Core Voluntary Contributions (https://www.who.int/about/funding/).

Even still, these Core Voluntary Contributions only make up 4.1% of the total WHO budget, the remaining given by foundations, trusts, corporations, NGOs, etc., such as Gates, Wellcome Trust, CEPI and Gavi.

RFKJ: Wellcome, the Gates Foundation and Gavi collectively donated (to WHO) $1.4 billion, including $170 million specifically for COVID-related programs since 2020.

JJB: WHO Executive Board members: China is one 34 countries geographically distributed around the world for equal representation on the board (https://apps.who.int/gb/gov/en/composition-of-the-board_en.html).

WHO Chair and Officers of the Executive Board: China has no officers of the WHO Executive Board (https://apps.who.int/gb/gov/en/chair-and-officers-of-the-executive-board_en.html).

JJB: Other than its mandated country Assessed Contributions, China is not a significant influence in WHO. It is clear that Gates, Wellcome Trust, CEPI, Gavi, and WEF drive the World Health Organization, it programs and initiatives.

Gavi

RFKJ: Gavi (the vaccine alliance), is itself a significant WHO donor…

JJB: Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, formerly the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations, was founded in 2000 by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, the WHO, UNICEF and the World bank with the aim of immunizing 300 million children worldwide with routine vaccines.

https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/view.aspx?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gavi.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Finvesting%2Ffunding%2Fdonor-contributions-pledges%2FContributions-Proceeds-to-Gavi-31-Dec-2023.xlsx&wdOrigin=BROWSELINK).

China has no member in GAVI’s Secretariat (https://www.gavi.org/operating-model/gavi-secretariat).

China has next to zero influence in Gavi.

CEPI

RFKJ: In 2017, Jeremy Farrar, President of the Wellcome Foundation, co-founded Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, CEPI, with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Wellcome and the World Economic Forum (WEF), as a mechanism for promoting and funding epidemic vaccines.

It’s worth repeating that Gates was heavily invested in the pharmaceutical companies that benefited from the rise in “Pandemic Preparedness and Response”, that his quasi-governmental organizations, including CEPI, advocated. Gates, whose investment strategy is often referred to as “philanthrocapitalism”, boasts that his vaccine enterprise is the best investment I’ve ever made, with his $10 billion investment yielding “$200 billion in social and economic benefits”.

JJB: George Gao, head of China’s CDC is the only Chinese member of CEPI’s Scientific Advisory Committee (https://cepi.net/Scientific-Advisory-Committee).

China has no leadership role in CEPI (https://cepi.net/cepi-leadership).

China has no CEPI board members (https://cepi.net/cepi-board).

China has no members in CEPI’s Joint Coordination Group (https://cepi.net/cepi-joint-coordination-group).

CEPI full list of investors PDF is blocked (https://cms.cepi.net/sites/default/files/2024-03/2024_03_18%20%20CEPI%20-%20Investors%20Overview.pdf), and I could find no references in the Wayback Machine. I wonder why?

One Chinese on CEPI’s Scientific Advisory Committee and dominated by Gates, Wellcome Trust and WEF?

In sum, China has very little presence in CEPI.

My closing comments and observations

I again congratulate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for putting this book together. It is a monument to fine research, investigation and thorough contextualization.

I learned so much. It was not just Big Pharma and DOD, but the CIA was on board the BW train from day one and running the show. Operation Paperclip morphed into DARPA. The US’s BW-CW attacks on American citizens and allies are magnitudes more than I could previously show. Using UV light and radiation, the US was already weaponizing germs in the 1960s and doing reverse genetic engineering in the early 1980s, including coronaviruses. COVID-19 has been in the pipeline for a very long time (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2021/09/07/we-made-sars-and-we-patented-it-on-19-4-2002-before-there-was-any-alleged-outbreak-in-asia-david-e-martin-testifies-at-the-german-corona-inquiry-committee-july-9th-2021-avtran/).

The total psychopathy of actors like Anthony Fauci (NIAID), Frances Collins (NIH), Ralph Baric (UNC), Peter Daszak (EcoHealth Alliance) and Jeremy Farrar (Wellcome Trust) has caused the death, illness and handicapping of millions of innocent people around the world, ongoing. I knew Bill Gates was a malevolent force on the international scene, but did not know how much he controls the World Health Organization, CEPI and Gavi. I also learned that Jeremy Farrar and the Wellcome Trust are the British doppelgangers of Bill Gates and his billion-dollar foundation, and equally as evil and genocidal.

These war criminals and their many acolytes across the West should be tried and hanged in Nuremberg 2.0.

BW labs in the USA, and we can assume elsewhere, have leaks on an almost daily basis. How many people get sick or die and we are not even aware of it? How many leaks are intentional, for testing purposes? The West has no qualms about using their citizens as unaware lab rats and guinea pigs.

I am shocked how mainstream and encouraged bioweapon research is in leading universities and institutions around the world. It’s banal that a Nobel Prize winner weaponizes germs. Research journals are full of thousands of studies that are blatant recipes to wipe out the human race, livestock and poultry, and apparently that is A-OK.

I will nevermore believe anything that science journalism and research journals print. They have become completely prostituted to Big Pharma and CIA/DOD. The Chinese, seeing how the West does this, and to have a place at the research table, has now joined in the pay-for-publishing corruption. Can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.

There are no consequences, no punishment, no shame for the West’s BW-vaccine criminals against humanity. Led by the USA, the West has over 300 germ warfare labs on every continent, except Antarctica and thousands more back home, one not far from where you live. It compromises and corrupts governments around the world, because everybody wants to have inside access, in hopes of protecting themselves.

China is no different. As the most BW-CW attacked country in the 20^th-21^stcentury, they hitched their wagon to the Western BW train, after the US’s SARS attack on China in 2003. Ralph Baric, Dr. COVIDmaker himself was already reaching out to the Chinese, having just perfected his now infamous reverse genetic engineering, i.e., weaponization of coronaviruses. In 2008, Fauci, Baric and Daszak started pouring BW research money and knowhow into China, and the Chinese, desperate to have inside access to their attackers’ technology, along with international virology respectability, were happy to be students.

It would be like the USA paying Chinese scientists in the 1950s to work and learn how to make the atom bomb in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Of course we accept! Until 2012, the question must be asked, why did Fauci, Baric and Daszak commit treason against the West? Was the CIA already calling the shots and demanding in-country access to spy on the Chinese?

Because that is what happened in 2012, when the CIA’s spy network in China got wiped out. At this point, for sure the CIA was pushing their asset, Peter Daszak to spare no time and expense to be in China, gathering intelligence on China’s progress in bioweapons, all taught to them by Daszak and Baric, paid for by Fauci. While Daszak is surely CIA, Baric seems to be beholden to the US military. Ditto Fauci, as NIH is controlled by the Pentagon.

RFK, Jr. makes a good case that COVID-19 was released by the Wuhan Institute for Virology (WIV), in the autumn of 2019. However, Baba Beijing’s original charge that it was released by the 300+ US soldiers attending the World Military Games (WMG) there is, chronology-wise, a more plausible story. In any case, Spain announced that it had found COVID-19 in-country no later than March, 2019, six months before the WMG (https://web.ub.edu/en/web/actualitat/w/sars-cov-2-detected-in-waste-waters-in-barcelona-on-march-12-2019), and was detecting unusual respiratory ailments a year before that. More evidence of respiratory illnesses and deaths right around Fort Detrick in the spring and summer of 2019 is also extremely suspicious, especially since the CDC took the dramatic step of shutting down Fort Detrick’s BW work that summer, for unacceptable handling of germs.

Thus, we have two possible leaks, WIV and Fort Detrick, with confirmations in Spain and Italy, well before the world-infamous outbreak in Wuhan in November 2019.

RFK, Jr. goes to great lengths to blame China for the cover-up of COVID-19’s origins. My careful review of the evidence provided in his book clearly shows that Western actors were the leaders and teachers. The Chinese were subordinate followers and students. It was Western actors who reached out to the Chinese and eagerly gave them all the secrets of BW dark arts, only getting some bat genomes and desperate CIA espionage access inside China in return.

I did find one glaring bad source that is a key accusation in the book,

This brings up a very important point, as shown here,

Yet, there is a clear difference between the USA versus USSR/Russia and China. The latter two have been repeatedly attacked with BW and chemical weapons (CW) by the prior, since 1945. There is no evidence that the latter have used their BW programs for offensive warfare. America has hundreds of BW development labs on every continent except Antarctica and surrounds these two rivals with them. Russia and China have no BW labs outside their boundaries.

There is also an important omission,

https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/07/23/its-getting-uglier-by-the-day-a-timeline-of-euranglolands-recent-causus-belli-against-china-western-capitalism-is-declaring-war-on-communist-socialist-china-because-it-cannot/ and https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2020/02/04/transcript-is-wuhan-coronavirus-a-hit-job-this-is-a-whodunit-not-to-miss-uriah-heep-our-expert-sherlock-holmes-solves-the-case/).

This helps explain China’s 24/7 vigilance against BW attacks, starting in 1937 with the Japanese.

Kennedy seems to have his own pangs of doubt about the book’s thrust,

Was Kennedy’s book vetted and edited by the CIA/DOD? It would not be the first time, nor will it be the last, that books about intelligence and military need to be “verified” for publication approval. His frank admission above suggests he’s not entirely comfortable with the book’s finger pointing.

The CIA is in Kennedy’s life. RFK, Jr.’s presidential campaign manager is a former CIA spy, none other than his daughter-in-law, Amaryllis Fox (https://edwardcurtin.com/the-cia-does-soulful-work/). That’s closer than six degrees of separation. The CIA is like the Mafia. Once you are a part of the family, you can never leave.

That is why I am finishing this book review with the strong impression that “The Wuhan Cover-Up” is a CIA/DOD limited hangout. This means admitting the US’s extensive BW war crimes in an historical way, providing thousands of references to overwhelm readers, yet deftly deflecting all of it onto China. This starts with the book’s title and cover, looking like China’s flag, the stars replaced with coronaviruses, which is what 99% of them will see and remember, as well as the many role reversals in the text, turning it all around on the Chinese, when the evidence clearly shows that the Chinese were always the students and subordinate subcontractors.

The accurate title would be, “The CIA/DOD/Big Pharma Cover-Up”, but that is not how psyops works. While a fabulous BW research resource, with its thousands of references – which I will continue to consult for the Bioweapon Truth Commission’s Global Online Library – the CIA can chalk up this book as very successful Yellow Peril propaganda.

To this day, the Chinese continue to get blamed for the book’s subtitle, “The Terrifying Bioweapons Arms Race”. This, while Fauci, Baric and Daszak continue to make millions committing crimes against humanity, and hey – who has ever heard of the CIA, Pentagon and Big Pharma working together on bioweapons?

Are you joking? Everybody knows it’s the Kung FLU!

Diplomacy for Dummies

Recently, a stark example of the war on consciousness in the West was on full display:

https://www.rt.com/russia/592298-polyansky-western-diplomacy-primitive/

Russians have had to dumb down their speeches at the UN so other countries can understand them, deputy representative Dmitry Polyansky has said

I don’t know what media you consume for your news, but the recent press conference by President Joe Biden, where he refers to President El-Sisi as the president of Mexico comes to mind. Mexico is on the US border. President El Sisi is the current leader of Egypt, which is what…5000 miles away from the US East Coast.

Well, we can sort of excuse Mr. Biden, who is now an octogenarian for not being as sharp as a tack. Although I regularly read The Greanville Post, by editor Patrice Greanville. (He's 84).

Or watch interviews with former CIA analyst, Ray McGovern, who participated in USA/USSR arms control negotiations 50 years ago.

Seems like, some people become very wise as they get older, and some people get dumber….I mean an Arab leader coming from Mexico???

Then, we can look to the chief architects of US foreign policy such as Secretary of State, Tony Blinken. As an arch Russophobe, cites his stepfather who was saved from a Nazi concentration camp by the US. But it seems that Blinken has a selective or defective memory:

https://nationalinterest.org/feature/what-tony-blinken-conveniently-left-out-his-family%E2%80%99s-story-174288

Blinken told his stepfather’s story as a tale of one-sided U.S. beneficence, but Samuel Pisar remembers it differently: “I was saved by the Battle of Stalingrad, which was the turning point of the war, and the Red Army offensive,” he said in a 2010 interview with Russian media outlet RIA Novosti. “For me, during the Second World War, Russia was a savior. I consider my saviors to be the Russian and American armies. You can criticize Stalin, the Gulag, and other things that happened in Russia from 1920 to 1930, but the heroism, sacrifice, and victory of Russia in the war against Fascism cannot be questioned. It’s sacred.”

Krishramurti on the Crisis in Consciousness

What the world is now with all the misery conflict destructive brutality aggression and so on..man he still as he was still brutal violent aggressive acquisitive competitive and he is built a society along these lines. ..what we are trying you know all these discussions and talks here…is to see if we cannot radically bring about a transformation of the Mind, not accept things as they are but to understand it to go into it to examine it give your heart and your mind with everybody think that you have to find out a way of living differently

My Dinner with Andre –a totalitarian system based on money, with people creating their own prison.

‘I mean are we just like bored spoiled children who’ve just been lying in the bathtub all day just playing with their plastic duck and now they’re just thinking well what can I do?

Okay yes we’re bored we’re all bored now but has it ever occurred to you that the process that creates this boredom that we see in the world now may very well be a self-perpetuating unconscious form of brainwashing created by a world totalitarian government based on money and that all of this is much more dangerous than one thinks and it’s not just a question of individual survival but that somebody who’s bored is asleep and somebody who’s asleep will not say no.

See I keep meeting these people I mean uh just a few days ago I met this man whom I greatly admire he’s a Swedish physicist Gustav bjor Strand and he told me that he no longer watches television he doesn’t read newspapers and he doesn’t read magazines he’s completely cut them out of his life because he really does feel the we’re living in some kind of orwellian nightmare now and that everything that you hear now contributes to turning you into a robot…

When I was at Findhorn I met this extraordinary English tree expert who had devoted his life to saving trees. He just got back from Washington lobbying to save the Redwoods he’s 84 years old he always travels with a Backpackers he never knows where he’s going to be tomorrow and when I met him at Findhorn he said to me, ‘where are you from’.

And I said New York. He said ‘ah New York yes that’s a very interesting place do you know a lot of New Yorkers who keep talking about the fact that they want to leave but never do and I said oh yes and he said why do you think they don’t leave I gave him different banal theories. He said, ‘Oh I don’t think it’s that way at all, I think that New York is the new model for the new concentration camp where the camp has been built by the inmates themselves and the inmates are the guards and they have this pride in this thing they’ve built.

‘They’ve built their own prison and so they exist in a state of schizophrenia where they are both guards and prisoners and as a result they no longer have having been lobotomized the capacity to leave leave the prison they’ve made or to even see it as a prison.’

Examples of Brazen Contempt for the Public Consciousness

If You Believe the Government, ‘You’re Stupid’

December 18, 2013

Americans are taught the myth that their democracy is safeguarded by an independent press. But the government and other powerful entities have long mastered the art of manipulating the major media, even to the point of bluntly telling reporters the facts of life, as Jon Schwarz recalls.

By Jon Schwarz

Everyone who watched John Miller’s “60 Minutes” segment on the NSA should follow it up with this story involving Morley Safer, who, at 82 years old, is still a correspondent at “60 Minutes”:

In August, 1965 Safer appeared in what became one of most famous TV segments of the Vietnam War, showing U.S. troops setting fire to all the huts in a Vietnamese village with Zippo lighters and flamethrowers.

Longtime CBS News correspondent Morley Safer.

A year later in 1966, Safer wrote an article about what he’d seen firsthand during a visit to Vietnam by Arthur Sylvester, then Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs (i.e., the head of Pentagon PR). Sylvester met with reporters for U.S. news outlets at the U.S. Embassy in Saigon:

There was general opening banter, which Sylvester quickly brushed aside. He seemed anxious to take a stand, to say something that would jar us. He said:

“I can’t understand how you fellows can write what you do while American boys are dying out here,” he began. Then he went on to the effect that American correspondents had a patriotic duty to disseminate only information that made the United States look good.

A network television correspondent said, “Surely, Arthur, you don’t expect the American press to be the handmaidens of government.”

“That’s exactly what I expect,” came the reply.

An agency man raised the problem that had preoccupied Ambassador Maxwell Taylor and Barry Zorthian [a press officer based in Vietnam], about the credibility of American officials. Responded the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs:

“Look, if you think any American official is going to tell you the truth, then you’re stupid. Did you hear that?, stupid.”

One of the most respected of all the newsmen in Vietnam,a veteran of World War II, the Indochina War and Korea, suggested that Sylvester was being deliberately provocative. Sylvester replied:

“Look, I don’t even have to talk to you people. I know how to deal with you through your editors and publishers back in the States.”

At this point, the Hon. Arthur Sylvester put his thumbs in his ears, bulged his eyes, stuck out his tongue and wiggled his fingers. [For the full article by Safer, see below.]

There are several significant aspects to this:

— A top U.S. official was honest enough to tell reporters: look, we lie to you constantly and you’re a moron if you believe anything we say. He also honestly expressed his total contempt for them and intention to manipulate news coverage by dealing directly with their management and employers.

Moreover, Sylvester (who before going to work for the Pentagon had been the Washington correspondent for the Newark News) put his beliefs into practice at key moments of history. He lied about what the U.S. knew about Soviet missiles in Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and personally told the key lies about the Gulf of Tonkin incident (listen to him here).

And word was passed to Safer’s superiors at CBS that “Unless you get Safer out of there, he’s liable to end up with a bullet in his back.”

This is such important information about how politics and the media work that it should be taught to everyone in second grade. It’s not.

— Even if regular people don’t know this story, you’d expect it to be famous within the media, and particularly famous at “60 Minutes.” You might even imagine that “If you think any American official is going to tell you the truth, then you’re stupid” would be spray-painted on the walls of the “60 Minutes” offices. But if the performance of John Miller and his producers on the NSA segment is anything to go by, that is not the case.

It’s hard to imagine what more the U.S. government could do to get reporters to distrust it, and all for naught. John Miller likely has an office feet away from someone who’s been told by a top U.S. official that reporters are morons if they believe anything top U.S. officials say. Miller’s response? Believe everything top U.S. officials say. (Of course, given that Miller is recreating Sylvester’s career path, it may also simply be that he agrees with Sylvester on the necessity of the press being handmaidens of government.)

— Even if reporters have forgotten this story, you’d expect that it would be Exhibit A for left-wing media critics and repeated so often that it would be common knowledge in those limited circles. Yet the forces of forgetting in the U.S. are so powerful that I’d never encountered it, and I’m probably one of America’s top 25 consumers of left-wing media criticism.

I can’t find any references to it by Noam Chomsky, Gore Vidal, Norman Solomon, Jeff Cohen, Robert Parry, Robert McChesney or Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting. (William Blum does tell part of what happened in his book Killing Hope, and the key sentence appears
in some online collections of quotes about the media.)

To make it even more surprising, Safer’s story was well-known enough at the time that Indiana’s anti-war Senator Vance Hartke referred to it on the Senate floor as “the now famous article.” And references to it sometimes appeared in books about Vietnam during the late Sixties and early Seventies. But after that it evaporated.

So if something this significant can disappear from history, truly only god knows what else has been thrown down the memory hole. To try to pull it back, I’m putting the entire text of the article online for the first time below, and adding the gist to Safer’s Wikipedia page.

I’m also going to try to get John Miller to answer a straightforward question: has Morley Safer ever told him this story?

Jon Schwarz is editor of MichaelMoore.com and was research producer for ‘Capitalism: A Love Story.’ He’s also contributed to the New Yorker, New York Times, Atlantic, Wall Street Journal, Slate, Saturday Night Live and NPR. [Reprinted with the author’s permission.]

‘Look, If You Think Any American Official Is Going to Tell You the Truth, Then You’re Stupid’

By Morley Safer
Of the Columbia Broadcasting System

There has been no war quite like it. Never have so many words been churned out, never has so much l6-mm film been exposed. And never has the reporting of a story been so much a part of the story itself.

This has been true whether you are reporting television’s first war, as I have been, or for one of the print media. Washington has been critical of American newsmen in Saigon almost continuously since 1961. That criticism has manifested itself in a number of ways,from the cancellation of newspaper subscriptions to orders to put certain correspondents on ice to downright threat.

As a friend of mine puts It, “The brass wants you to get on the team.”

To the brass, getting on the team means simply giving the United States government line in little more than handout. It means accepting what you are told without question. At times it means turning your back on facts.

I know of few reporters in Viet Nam who have “gotten on the team.” The fact is, the American people are getting an accurate picture of the war in spite of attempts by various officials,mostly in Washington,to present the facts in a different way. That is why certain correspondents have been vilified, privately and publicly.

By late winter of 1964-1965 the war was clearly becoming an American war. And with it came an American responsibility for providing and reporting facts. American officials thus were able to deal directly with reporters. The formality of “checking it out with the Vietnamese” ceased to be relevant.

In Washington the burden of responsibility of giving, controlling and managing the war news from Viet Nam fell to,and remains with,one man: Arthur Sylvester, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs.

By early summer of 1965 the first set of ground rules had been laid down for reporting battles and casualties. There was no censorship but a very loose kind of honor system that put the responsibility for not breaking security on the shoulders of correspondents. The rules were vague and were therefore continually broken.

For military and civilian officials in Viet Nam there was another set of rules,rather another honor system that was not so much laid down as implied. “A policy of total candor” is a phrase used by Barry Zorthian, minister-counselor at the U.S. Embassy in Saigon. Zorthian is what Time calls “the information czar” in Viet Nam.

The breaking of the vague ground rules was something that annoyed everyone. Correspondents were rocketed by their editors, and the military in Viet Nam felt that Allied lives were being endangered. So in midsummer, when Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara came to Saigon and brought Sylvester with him, we all looked forward to the formulation of a clear-cut policy. Sylvester was to meet the press in an informal session to discuss mutual problems. The meeting was to take the vagueness out of the ground rules.

The Sylvester meeting was surely one of the most disheartening meetings between reporters and a news manager ever held.

It was a sticky July evening. Inside Zorthian’s villa it was cool. But Zorthian was less relaxed than usual. He was anxious for Sylvester to get an idea of the mood of the news corps. There had been some annoying moments in previous weeks that had directly involved Sylvester’s own office. In the first B-52 raids, Pentgaon releases were in direct contradiction to what had actually happened on the ground in Viet Nam.

There was general opening banter, which Sylvester quickly brushed aside. He seemed anxious to take a stand,to say something that would jar us. He said:

A network television correspondent said, “Surely, Arthur, you don’t expect the American press to be the handmaidens of government.”

“That’s exactly what I expect,” came the reply.

An agency man raised the problem that had preoccupied Ambassador Maxwell Taylor and Barry Zorthian,about the credibility of American officials. Responded the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs:

“Look, if you think any American official is going to tell you the truth, then you’re stupid. Did you hear that?,stupid.”

One of the most respected of all the newsmen in Vietnam,a veteran of World War II, the Indochina War and Korea,suggested that Sylvester was being deliberately provocative. Sylvester replied:

“Look, I don’t even have to talk to you people. I know how to deal with you through your editors and publishers back in the States.”

At this point, the Hon. Arthur Sylvester put his thumbs in his ears, bulged his eyes, stuck out his tongue and wiggled his fingers.

A correspondent for one of the New York papers began a question. He never got beyond the first few words. Sylvester interrupted:

“Aw, come on, What does someone in New York care about the war in Viet Nam?”

We got down to immediate practical matters,the problems of communication, access to military planes, getting out to battles.

“Do you guys want to be spoon-fed? Why don’t you get out and cover the war?”

It was a jarring and insulting remark. Most of the people in that room has spent as much time on actual operations as most GI’s.

The relationship between reporters and public information officers in Saigon, or the other hand, has been a good, healthy one. The relationship in the field is better, and in dealing with the men who fight the war it is very good indeed.

ABOUT THE ARTICLE

Arthur Sylvester, assistant secretary of defense in charge of public affairs, said Wednesday that no government official should lie when giving out information about the country.

He said it was all right to withhold information to safeguard the country. He was testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. This article is one correspondent’s report of Sylvester’s statement about truth in public affairs one year ago.

From the book The Game of Death, by Albert E Kahn and Michael Sayer

Deliberately dumbing down the population starting with public education

III. WAR ON THE MIND

BY ALBERT E KAHN

Chapter 3 from The Game of Death

IN THE early summer of 1949 an extraordinary document, which bode portentous changes in the lives of countless young Americans, was published in the United States. Entitled American Education and International Tensions and printed in the form of a 54-page booklet, the document consisted of a report issued under the auspices of the National Education Association, the largest and most influential educational body in the country.

The report advanced the startling thesis that the time had come to revamp completely the traditional function of the nation’s schools as institutions of objective instruction and free inquiry, and to convert them into agencies of political indoctrination and instruments for producing un-questioning adherence to the official policies of the U. S. Government. (And its semi-official doctrine, capitalism—Ed).

CIA and the role of manipulating culture

https://www.thecollector.com/abstract-expressionism-waging-a-cultural-cold-war-2/

The Cold War was very ideologically charged: it was a battle between opposing political systems. It is therefore only natural that the spread of culture played such an important role. The CIA employed the most effective sort of propaganda, the sort which influences the minds of people without them realizing it. Eventually, their covert methods made Abstract Expressionism so popular that it became quite difficult for an artist to find success working in any other style.

They want to destroy social consciousness by eliminating Socialist Realism as an art genre.

https://news.artnet.com/art-world/artcurious-cia-art-excerpt-1909623

When the US government established the CIA in 1947, it included a division known as the Propaganda Assets Inventory, a branch of psychological warfare intended to boost pro-American messaging during the Cold War. In the following excerpt from the new book ArtCurious: Stories of the Unexpected, Slightly Odd, and Strangely Wonderful in Art History, author Jennifer Dasal explores how the intelligence agency curated exhibitions of abstract art to wage its ideological war.

How to Win the War on Consciousness–Develop Critical Thinking

https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/an/an03/an03.065.than.html

Harking back 2500 years, we see that this is not a new problem. The story goes that the Buddha was traveling around India, and came to a village of the Kalama people. There were confused because sometimes some guru would show up and explain why they should follow him. Later on, another guru would come to town, and tell the people that the first guru was wrong and that they should follow this guy.

So when Siddhartha Gotama (the Buddha) came to their town, they asked his opinion. Rather than telling them ‘The Truth’, in response to this question, he answered the following:

Which of these venerable brahmans & contemplatives are speaking the truth, and which ones are lying?”

“Of course you are uncertain, Kalamas. Of course you are in doubt. When there are reasons for doubt, uncertainty is born. So in this case, Kalamas, don’t go by reports, by legends, by traditions, by scripture, by logical conjecture, by inference, by analogies, by agreement through pondering views, by probability, or by the thought, ‘This contemplative is our teacher.’

When you know for yourselves that, ‘These qualities are unskillful; these qualities are blameworthy; these qualities are criticized by the wise; these qualities, when adopted & carried out, lead to harm & to suffering’— then you should abandon them.

Note by the translator:

Traditions are not to be followed simply because they are traditions. Reports (such as historical accounts or news) are not to be followed simply because the source seems reliable. One’s own preferences are not to be followed simply because they seem logical or resonate with one’s feelings.

Instead, any view or belief must be tested by the results it yields when put into practice; and — to guard against the possibility of any bias or limitations in one’s understanding of those results — they must further be checked against the experience of people who are wise. The ability to question and test one’s beliefs in an appropriate way is called appropriate attention.

The ability to recognize and choose wise people as mentors is called having admirable friends. According to Iti 16-17, these are, respectively, the most important internal and external factors for attaining the goal of the practice.

Think for Yourself–Put No One’s Head Above Your Own

In other words, Think for yourselves, and seek multiple sources, such as those noted above (but not only these) in order to decide what is true or false, or what is right or wrong.

How America Impoverished the 90%

Their poverty is a feature, not a bug

GODFREE ROBERTS

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON SEP 16, 2023

The doctrine of developmentalism – that countries develop best by educating their people, fostering strong domestic markets and imposing high tariffs on imports – enjoyed a golden age postwar. By 1969, says Naomi Klein, the Southern Cone looked more European than Third World. Workers in new factories formed strong unions that negotiated middle-class salaries and their children went off to study at new public universities. By the Fifties, Argentina had the largest middle class in South America, while Uruguay provided free health care to its 95% literate people.

Ike’s War On Development

Since developmentalism is rooted in equality, justice and independence, the US painted it as the first step towards godless communism, forever tarnishing it in Americans minds. Then, in 1953, President Eisenhower launched the war on development by appointing the Dulles brothers – who had represented the Cuban Sugar Cane Co. and United Fruit Co. – as Secretary of State and CIA Director.

When Iran elected a fervent developmentalist President, Mohammad Mossadegh, Eisenhower and the Dulles set out to destroy him and his country, a project that remains a White House priority.

Despite his good image for having "warned us" about the MIC, Eisenhower like all US presidents was an unapologetic meddling imperialist.

Empty calories

Ike’s anti-development policy was called Capitalist Modernization Theory: [According to this], Western societies are inherently progressive in ways older civilizations can never be, and the wealth they generate is distributed unevenly because some people work harder than others. But the only road to economic evolution and social modernization leads through free trade, individual effort and capitalism, and those who stray from the path will be destroyed.

So thorough was the anti-developmentalist campaign that the US carried its attack to the UN, where it blocked all resolutions recognizing food, shelter and national development as human rights. Learning of this a horrified Harold Pinter wrote,

The crimes of the United States have been systematic, constant, vicious, remorseless, but very few people have actually talked about them. You have to hand it to America. It has exercised a quite clinical manipulation of power worldwide while masquerading as a force for universal good. It’s a brilliant, even witty, highly successful act of hypnosis. "U.S. foreign policy is best defined as follows: kiss my arse or I’ll kick your head in. It is as simple and as crude as that. What is interesting about it is that it’s so incredibly successful. It possesses the structures of disinformation, use of rhetoric, distortion of language, which are very persuasive, but are actually a pack of lies. It is very successful propaganda. They have the money, they have the technology, they have all the means to get away with it, and they do.” – Nobel Prize lecture, 1958.

To keep developmentalism dormant, the US systematically destroyed developing economies and assassinated defiant leaders. To this day, the Joint Chiefs reassure the nation that they are ready to nuke China for having the audacity to develop its economy.

Enter the Dragon

Maurice Meisner,

Starting with an industrial base smaller than that of Belgium's in 1952, the China that for so long was ridiculed as "the sick man of Asia" emerged at the end of the Mao period as one of the six largest industrial producers in the world, comparable to the industrialization of Germany, Japan, and Russia.

In Germany the rate of economic growth 1880-1914 was 33% per decade.

In Japan from 1874-1929 the rate of increase per decade was 43%.

The Soviet Union from 1928-58 achieved a decadal increase of 54%.

In Mao’s China from 1952-72 the decadal rate was 64%.

By maintaining Mao’s breakneck pace for seventy years, China has created the largest and most complete (war-fighting) economy on earth – so resilient that, in the face of embargoes and threats, its trade has grown by $1 trillion under the embargoes and the economy by $1.6 trillion this year alone.

Washington’s last stand?

China’s development represents a defeat far more consequential than America’s combined losses in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Ukraine. China not only defied America and developed, but is supplanting it as leader of the world.

Addendum

Even the CIA-redacted Wikipedia accepts, however grudgingly, that China has accomplished a virtual miracle in a much shorter time than ANY capitalist nation in history thanks to its socialist core. The quote below testifies to this:

[4]^[5] which still stands in 2022.^[6]^[7]^[8]

The Chinese definition of extreme poverty is more stringent than that of the World Bank: earning less than $2.30 a day at purchasing power parity (PPP).^[9]Growth has fuelled a substantial increase in per-capita income lifting people out of extreme poverty. China's per capita income has increased fivefold between 1990 and 2000, from $200 to $1,000. Between 2000 and 2010, per capita income also rose at the same rate, from $1,000 to $5,000, moving China into the ranks of middle-income countries.

Every aspect of the global-warming debate is like this: propaganda-driven by and for the investors, instead of fact-based for the public.

However, the conservative billionaires’ propagandists lie even more boldly to allege that global warming isn’t happening, and that if it is happening it’s good, and that if it isn’t good then it isn’t being caused by the fuels that their corporations produce and buy.

So, lies predominate on BOTH sides. One can believe either side only on the basis of faith — the necessary scientific answers haven’t yet been sought (much less found). So: the public is at the mercy of — and deceived by — agents who are serving the investors.

On 6 May 2023, I headlined “You want to know how to stop global warming? Here is how” and opened: “Outlaw the purchasing of any stock or bond — any investment securities — in fossil-fuel extraction companies, such as ExxonMobil and Peabody Coal: any such company at all.” That would make impossible the transfer of ownership of any share of stock, and make impossible any lending to, any fossil-fuels exploration-and-extraction corporation, and therefore the stock-value in all such companies would plunge near to zero, and the only way that those corporations would have any value at all for the stockholders would be by the corporation’s distributing to those stockholders high dividends, which would force all of these companies onto the path of no further R&D (no further exploration) and of their declining toward expiration, so that those corporations will no longer be producing those fuels. This would cause the prices of those fuels to rise sharply, so that ONLY new non-fossil-fuels technologies will be getting the new R&D and will be attracting consumers (because fossil-fuels prices will be soaring); and, since exploring for yet more fossil-fuels will cease while all of those R&D expenditures will then go instead into the much safer thorium-nuclear and other entirely new energy technologies that MIGHT actually succeed at safely lowering energy-costs, there will then be a POSSIBILITY of preventing runaway global warming.

None of the existing ‘clean-energy’ technologies is price-competitive with fossil fuels; and, so, continuing the existing ‘free-market’ policies will inevitably produce global burnout. IF there is any way to prevent that outcome, then it can result ONLY from outlawing the purchase of any stock or bond from any fossil-fuel corporation, as I explained.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR / SOURCE

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is 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.
