Wider War Will Bring Inevitable Attempts At Martial Law In America by Brandon Smith
SUNDAY, OCT 29, 2023 – 04:01 PM – Not long ago at the height of fear over the global pandemic the US underwent a change that many people argued would never happen. For years I have heard people say that authoritarian controls in America are “tinfoil hat conspiracy theory” and doom mongering – All the prepping, all the talk of community organizing, all the guns and the gear and the training were for nothing.
Then…the covid agenda hit like a freight train.
Our constitutional rights were no longer set in stone, but mere guidelines that government officials could bend or break in the name of “public health safety.” Laws no longer had to be passed through a series of checks and balances; mandates could be implemented as if they were laws without public oversight and enforced unilaterally.
There was talk (primarily among Democrats) of severe punishments for people who refused the pointless covid vaccines. They wanted vaccine passports, they wanted prison time for those that spoke publicly against the vax, they wanted people’s jobs taken away, they wanted their children taken away, and there were even plans to build covid detention centers to segregate and lock up “vax deniers.”
It boggles the mind, but this was serious debate within the US and it was all triggered in the span of a year. Nearly half the country was willing to abandon the Bill of Rights over a virus with a survival rate of 99.8%. The conspiracy theorists were right all along; our freedoms rest on a razor’s edge and preparing to survive and fight for those freedoms is perfectly rational.
Luckily, the covid agenda failed. The mandates were ultimately blocked by red states and in many rural areas they were barely enforced at all. Biden’s vaccine passport attempt was stopped cold by the Supreme Court, but I have long believed that the Supreme Court made this decision exactly because of the level of public resistance. They knew if they pressed the issue, civil war was on the table.
Medical authoritarianism collapsed because conservatives and independents were not onboard and they could not be shamed into compliance.
So many coincidences Chananya Weissman
The following video (in Hebrew) is a must watch:
Can it be? A collection of questions are forbidden to be asked regarding the October 7 attack.
Below is an English translation of the many “coincidences” that are mentioned in the video, each of which is supported with evidence. I leave it up to you to draw your own conclusions and take appropriate measures.
It could all be a coincidence that this war was already written about in the 18th century by the known Freemason Albert Pike.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that American international security advisor Henry Kissinger said 10 years ago that in 10 years Israel will cease to exist.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that the Prime Minister met with Kissinger 9 days before the massacre.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that the Prime Minister also testified 3 years ago they suggested he make a move that would set the entire Middle East on fire.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that the European Union supplied Gaza with paragliders 3 months before the attack.
And it could also be a coincidence that Walla writer Amir Bohbot uploaded a video a few days before the massacre: “Forget about Hamas, the story is here. Head of Military Intelligence, you played it.”
And it could also be a coincidence that a video was uploaded from the party a few hours before it about an attack that was going to take place.
And it could also be a coincidence that the best intelligence in the world didn’t know about the largest and most well-planned massacre in history.
It could be a coincidence that the intelligence missed the largest terrorist attack in Israel’s history when the head of Zaka, Yehuda Meshi, openly testified that they are informed in advance about every attack.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that specifically this time the intelligence also didn’t pay attention to Egyptian intelligence that warned about it.
And it could also be that just by coincidence the IDF didn’t pay attention to the fact that Hamas was taking down their cameras from the fence.
And maybe it’s a coincidence that Israeli intelligence didn’t think thing much of something that even an ordinary observer understood! And even warned about it!
And it could also be a coincidence that even the second warning did light a red alert by anyone.
And it could also be a coincidence that a few weeks before the massacre the observation balloons by the Gaza border were taken out of service, and the IDF chose to postpone taking care of them in spite of all the warnings.
And it’s also a total coincidence that even the intelligence forces of the Shabak didn’t function.
And it could also be a coincidence that a horrible order was given to the local task forces that they are forbidden to keep weapons in their homes.
And it could also be a coincidence that no one was on standby that morning.
And it could also be a coincidence that the entire top brass of Israeli security was on vacation that morning – the very morning that was full of severe alerts and warnings.
And it could also be a coincidence that 3 months before the massacre they took away the license from one of the most important people in the area to listen in on Hamas communications and report to the IDF.
And it could also be a coincidence that they ignored for more than a year the warnings of Raphael Hion, who heard Hamas speaking explicitly about what they were planning to do.
And it could also be a coincidence that the intelligence didn’t know about this secret plan that was broadcast on Arab television a few days before it happened.
And it could also be a coincidence that they made a mistaken decision not to update anyone about their conclusion that it seemed there would a battle on Shabbos in the Gaza envelope.
And it could also be a coincidence that by mistake an order was issued for the media not to publicize the infiltration of terrorists and thereby to save the lives of citizens!!
And it could also be a coincidence that the helicopters that arrived received a horrible order not to get involved in the battle.
And maybe by mistake, by coincidence that the army issued statements that they didn’t know what was going on for many hours when at that very time countless soldiers were already updated beginning that morning.
And it could be totally by coincidence that the terrorists felt so comfortable, as if they knew that no one was chasing after them.
And it could also be a coincidence that specifically that day the female observers didn’t see all those hundreds of terrorists, bikes, jeeps, parachutes, and thousands of citizens.
And it could also be a coincidence that specifically that day no one rushed to the fence.
And it could also be a coincidence that all the alerts of the female observers that they issued mere hundreds of meters from the fence simply didn’t get passed along any further.
And it could also be a coincidence that five female observers who were taken away on a helicopter have disappeared without a trace.
And it could also be a coincidence that no one properly realized that it would be appropriate to rush over the air force and stop all those terrorists already at the beginning.
And it could also be a coincidence that the army took so many hours to absorb the fact that they were STILL murdering men and taking women and children hostage – after 27 HOURS!!!

Tribal Warfare by Victor Rosenthal
October 30, 2023 – The deliberate viciousness of the attack by Hamas on southern Israel was an announcement of the tribal nature of the conflict. Although it is true that the initial assault troops were followed by a civilian rabble that participated joyfully in the mass murder, rape, and looting, the Hamas soldiers themselves received explicit orders (this is documented) to perpetrate a terrorist massacre with all the trimmings, and they did so exceeding the expectations of their commanders.
This wasn’t an accident. It wasn’t merely an outburst of the hatred that is drilled into all Gazans by their Hamas-controlled (and UN-supported) educational system, although that is what made it possible for human beings to become monsters. The savagery was fully intended by the Hamas leadership.
A tribal war is fought for territory, but it is also fought for honor. And honor is gained (or in the case of Palestinians, lost honor is regained) by humiliating the enemy. And this is done here in the Middle East by exaggerated cruelty, especially to the weakest elements of the enemy tribe. That’s why Hamas fighters and their followers tortured women in unmentionable ways and overcame the normal human resistance to hurting children and the elderly.
There is little distinction between civilians and soldiers in tribal warfare, except insofar as soldiers are considered more dangerous. An enemy is an enemy, and you kill enemies.

What Would King David Do? Chananya Weissman
April 10, 2023 – In this age of instant reactions and herd mentality, we need to step back and ask a simple question: What would King David do?
I encourage everyone to read through the parts of Shmuel and Divrei Hayamim that cover King David’s life. Even a superficial reading will fill you with true Jewish feeling and thinking, and an occasional refresher course will fortify your mind against un-Jewish ideas.
King David would not plead with the United Nations to condemn the recent slaughter of Jews in Israel. Under his watch, Israel would have nothing to do with the wicked farce that is the United Nations, let alone grovel for their recognition, sympathy, or approval.
King David would not plead with world leaders to issue statements in support of Israel. He would not ask them to affirm Israel’s right to exist or Israel’s right to defend itself. Who does that? How pathetic!
King David would not freeze construction of homes in any part of Israel, ever, in order to mollify those who don’t want Jews living there. Who ever heard of such a thing? How could a leader of any country adopt such a policy and face his people, or even himself?
King David would not respond to the slaughter of Jews by granting approval for limited construction of additional homes. One builds homes for his people because that’s what normal people do, not as a punishment to those who murder his people. Do you think the bloodthirsty Arabs are deterred because of this? Do you think they ever sat around planning a terrorist attack, and then called it off because an apartment was approved in some border town in response to the last one?
Do you think they quake in fear because we quickly clean up the aftermath of a terrorist attack and “go back to normal”, proclaiming that killing our people won’t deter the rest of us from going on living? Do you think that deters them? “Oh no, the Jews cleaned up the blood! They are drinking coffee and shopping again! Why should we bother killing more of them?”
Our enemies laugh at us. They scorn us. And they are right. We are fools and losers for pretending this is an act of defiance or deterrence.
Our enemies would not laugh at King David. They would cower in fear at the very mention of his name.
ALARMING OBSERVATION by Ed., the Daily Shmutz Editor
Here is the reader count since last night for the different categories posted in the Daily Shmutz:
COMMENTARY / OPINION 64
GEOENGINEERING WEATHER 11
COVID-19 10
NEWS 0 (!!)
ISRAEL 9 (??)
What’s wrong with this picture?
I work my little tuchis off all day, every day for free, in order to bring you news and information that is not found in the main stream media. This is to help my readers connect the dots, and to have educated perceptions of our rapid demise. When I see zero reads for the NEWS, it tells me ‘We don’t need no stinkin’ news’! When I see nine reads for Israel, I wonder where are all those Christians who just “LOVE Israel” at this pivotal point in our history and our future? ‘We don’t need no stinkin’ news about Israel!’ How can you connect the dots if you ignore the most important ones?
“You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink!”
I do not expect to reach everybody, and I will have reached my goal if I even reach one of you! And toward that goal I will continue to work as hard as I can. But I strongly recommend that you read the NEWS and ISRAEL categories first, because they are the ones that will effect you first (besides GEOEGINEERING / WEATHER, of course).

Victor Davis Hanson: Biden is Not With Israel, But the American People are [52:53] Caroline Glick
10/28/2023 – Historian Victor Davis Hanson was my guest this week on the Caroline Glick Show.
Victor and I discussed the war, the Biden administration’s position on the war and Israel, and how Israel should relate to its position.
We also spoke about the state of the American people’s support of Israel.
Don’t miss this critical discussion.
Chomp Chomp, Gulp Gulp By James Howard Kunstler
October 28, 2023 – “Remember the good ole’ days when we lived in a country where no one had the answer to this baffling question: How could something like the Holocaust happen?” — John Nolte, Breitbart
Of course, you realize that if this tragic business in the Middle East gets out of hand millions of people might die, maybe even you and me. Any way you cut it, looks like Islam wants to rumble. Basic problem: the little slab of land on the Mediterranean at issue is in the possession of one group of people and another group of people wants to drive them out. There is no “two state solution” because there is only one place in that place.
The world has already forgotten the butchery of October 7. Islam won’t even go so far as to acknowledge that something happened there, or that it matters. This is a quandary for Western Civ which operates lately on the ethos that anything goes and nothing matters. Face it: that’s a luxury belief. A society in collapse learns painfully that the first thing to go is luxury, Louis Vuitton bags and foolish Woke thinking. Western Civ may not be able to pretend any longer that nothing matters.
The reason Israel is where it is is because Western Civ treated the Jews abominably in the 1930s and 40s. The result, establishing a state of Israel in its historic location, was a power move, of course, by the powers who won the Second World War, but it had the imprimatur of a sacred duty. We’ve forgotten the impact, even to regular grunt US soldiers who liberated the extermination camps of Europe, of the unspeakable barbarism they encountered. It maimed the psyche of Western Civ to discover what savagery its best educated member nation turned out to be capable of. Is there any question that Germany lost its mind in those years?
Western Civ has been busy losing its mind for about seven years now. It’s so tormented that it has been flirting with suicide, for instance, allowing its borders to be overwhelmed with swarms of declared antagonists to Western culture. The European Union guilt-tripped themselves into letting that happen. The process in the USA appears more sinister and calculated, a sheer political ploy. In any case, nobody is lifting a finger to stop it.Israel is a full-fledged member of that lunatic asylum. Israel is engaged in as much of a civil war between Left and Right as its godfathers in Europe and North America are enduring. On top of that, Israel decided to become the poster-child for Covid-19 vaccination “uptake.” It seemed like a valiant stand in the first flush of the Covid “crisis,” but now it looks more like they poisoned more than 90-percent of their population. You don’t hear much about it these days, but it’s lurking there, just like the massive vaccine damage that Europe and America have by stealth sustained lurks in the background of rising war fever and disintegrating economies.
Escalations Cannot Be Stopped – The White House Is Rattled; Escalations Might All Fuse Into ‘One’ By Alastair Crooke
October 28, 2023 – Tom Friedman uttered his dire warning in the New York Times on Thursday last:
“I believe that if Israel rushes headlong into Gaza now [unilaterally] to destroy Hamas — it will be making a grave mistake that will be devastating for Israeli interests and American interests”.
“It could trigger a global conflagration and explode the entire pro-American alliance structure that the U.S. has built…I am talking about the Camp David peace treaty, the Oslo peace accords, the Abraham Accords and the possible normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. The whole thing could go up in flames.
“Unfortunately, the senior U.S. official told [Friedman], Israeli military leaders are actually more hawkish than the prime minister now. They are red with rage and determined to deliver a blow to Hamas that the whole neighbourhood will never forget”.
Friedman here is talking, of course, about an American alliance system, pivoted around the idea of Israel’s military prowess being invincible – the ‘Little NATO’ paradigm that acts as the essential substrata for the spread of the American-led Rules Order through West Asia.
It is analogous to the substrata of the NATO alliance, whose claimed ‘unchallengeability’ has underpinned U.S. interests in Europe (at least until the Ukraine war).
One Israeli Cabinet member put it to the veteran Israeli defence correspondent Ben Caspit that Israel just cannot permit its long-term deterrence being undermined:
US Leadership Wreaks Mayhem and Destruction Across the World By Vasko Kohlmayer
October 28, 2023 – “US leadership holds the world together,” declared Joe Biden in a recent televised address to the nation.
Of all the untruths that Joe Biden has uttered in his term as president this one is perhaps the most egregious. It is enough to look at the past two decades to see just how wrong President Biden’s claim is.
Instead of holding the world together, America’s political leadership has, in fact, inflicted wholesale chaos, death, and destruction in many places across the globe. It has attacked and invaded sovereign nations, shattered societies, created instability and caused the deaths of millions.
One Mistake Before Armageddon By Paul Craig Roberts
October 28, 2023 – Each of us faces each day threats to our health, happiness, and life. Overarching it all, we collectively face death from nuclear weapons.
The development of nuclear weapons was a human stupidity. They cannot be used, but their existence threatens the life of the planet. So why have them? Accident, emotional response, loss of reason are all human faults that can come into play at any time.
During the 20th century Cold War these dangers were underlined by the Cuban Missile Crisis. President Nixon led the way to sanity with arms control agreements with the Soviet Union and his opening to China. Presidents Carter and Reagan kept the momentum going for reduced tensions and peaceful coexistence.
The turnaround came with the Soviet collapse. The neoconservatives took advantage of Russian weakness and prevailed on President Clinton to break the promise given by the George H.W. Bush administration to Gorbachev not to move NATO to Soviet borders if Gorbachev permitted the reunification of Germany. The George W. Bush and Obama administrations continued the hostile policy that Clinton renewed.
Today all the arms control agreements that reduced tensions and the danger of nuclear confrontation are erased. The last one–never ratified by the US–was revoked by the upper house of Russia’s parliament last Wednesday. Tass, the Russian news agency, reported that “Achieving the goal of preventing the proliferation of nuclear weapons is not deemed possible in the current international situation, given the destructive position of the United States.”
We Are About To Witness One of the Most Pivotal Moments in Modern History By Michael Snyder
October 28, 2023 – Most people don’t seem to realize that one of the most important moments that any of us have ever witnessed is about to happen. When the Israeli invasion of Gaza officially commences, nothing will ever be the same from that point forward. The entire Middle East will erupt in flames and the global economy will go completely haywire. But Israel doesn’t have a choice in this matter. If our babies were killed, our women were raped and our grandmothers were kidnapped, we would be going to war with Hamas too. Unfortunately, much of the Islamic world is uniting behind Hamas, and so Israel could soon find itself literally fighting a war of national survival.
I know that Israel does not want to fight a multi-front war against multiple Islamic enemies.
But once again, after what Hamas just did to Israeli women and children, there is no choice.
Hamas must be destroyed, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that the timing of the ground invasion has been decided…
The Day After by Victor Rosenthal
October 29, 2023 – I’m going to make this short, because it really is simple.
After Hamas is completely extirpated from Gaza, militarily and politically, and its leadership wiped out, then what?
The Biden Administration wants to see the Palestinian Authority put in control, which, they think, will finally enable the two-state solution they have been trying to impose since the 1970s. Israel cannot allow this.
The PA, dominated by the terrorist organization Fatah, is no more prepared to suffer a Jewish state next door than Hamas. The only thing that prevents PA Arabs from doing precisely the same thing that Hamas did on 7 October is the day in, day out activity of the Shabak and the IDF to arrest or kill terrorists and interrupt their plans.
If you don’t believe this, look at what the PA says in its own media. But even if this weren’t true, and the PA actually was a “moderate” institution interested in peaceful development of a Palestinian state, what prevents it from being taken over by extremists? After all, this is precisely what happened in Gaza after Israel withdrew its soldiers, expelled its civilians by force, and even exhumed its dead from Gazan cemeteries in 2005 (think about why this last step was necessary).
As long as there is Palestinian sovereignty in Gaza, there is no doubt that it will develop into a base for terrorism. Those residents of the Western Negev that survived the pogrom of 7 October will not return. In effect Israel will cede a large part of her country to her enemies.
One the dumbest people on the planet.
