Alfred McCoy: Ukraine War Will Birth New World Order

Posted on by

On Democracy Now, Professor Alfred McCoy explains why the Ukrainian war will give birth to a new world order.  That is, a new New World Order.

Lila: Perhaps it is in this sense that the predictions since 2015 from various Rabbis that we are living in messianic times and that the moshiach has arrived/is arriving can best be understood. After all, if this new order,  diminishes the United States and NATO, which it seems to be doing,  then the fall of Edom/AntiChrist, associated in the minds of the Rabbis with Western  Christianity/Europe/North America, must be accompanied by the rise of the Messiah, which in this geopolitical reading, is the new NWO, led by Russia and China, ostensibly, with Israel playing a mediating role.

Establishment: Covid-19 Is New Normal

Posted on by

Two establishment mouthpieces, Amy Goodman of Democracy Now and Laurie Garrett, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “The Coming Plague” and consultant to the predictive programming movie, “Contagion,” chat up our new Covid-19 normal and a future of vaccinations for all 7.5 billion members of our species:

“LAURIE GARRETT: So, at a moment when a massive-scale collaboration is necessary — and let’s be clear, we’re going to have to vaccinate 7.5 billion human beings. It’ll be the largest vaccination effort ever even imagined, much less executed, in the history of our species. When that is being revved up in Europe, and there’s a desperate desire to see Asian countries, European countries, African countries, Latin American countries all collaborating with a common mission, the United States is saying, “Bye, guys.”

AMY GOODMAN: Astounding. You have people like — well, you have countries like Norway who are giving a billion dollars, and, as Juan pointed out, the United States is not giving anything to the vaccine effort. But, Laurie, in an interview you did with The New York Times, headlined “She Predicted the Coronavirus. What Does She Foresee Next?” you said that you see that the pandemic goes on for like 36 months. I think people are cringing all over who are hearing this right now. But if you can say — lay out the scenario. And what exactly does that mean? Do you stay in your home for that amount of time? What would be the most logical, safe reopening, if that can happen, and also dealing with this pandemic? Why do you say 36 months?

LAURIE GARRETT: Well, 36 months is my best-case scenario. Worst case is that it becomes a new permanent feature on the landscape for generations to come.“

Note: Amazon reviewers find a major error in “The Coming Plague,” as well as undisguised political propaganda:

“She claims, in the chapter “Microbe Magnets” that there were 500,000 deaths from Cholera in NYC in 1832. Wow… that’s a horrifying number. Except it isn’t true. There were about 250,000 people living in NYC that summer, and 3215 of them succumbed to the disease. I was able to check it from multiple sources in mere moments, with the magic of the internet at my fingertips, and although I know she wouldn’t have had that in 1994, it is still an egregious error.”

“It would be more than a year before the Reagan administration’s health leadership would accept the idea that AIDS in Africa was primarily heterosexual. The administration would never fully acknowledge that the virus might also be heterosexually transmitted in the United States. Indeed, disputes over heterosexual transmissibility of the virus and the applicability of the African (read: black) experience to the Euro-American (read: white) context would rage within the upper echelons of the U.S. government throughout the eight-year-long Reagan administration and well into the term of his successor, George Bush.”

Really? The author had to add in “(read: white)” and “(read: black)” to make the issue about whether AIDS was spreading heterosexually a racist issue?
