Well said emerson. Yes, these are extremely dark days. We are all transfixed, absolutely horrified.. it does appear Samson Options have been activated, in spite of seeming meekness in Villainius, no? Everything’s dissembling and time-wasting, until they can finagle what they think should be the knock-out blow.. and Rooskies are onto them, hence Medvedev’s morbid resignation lately..
We never trusted Erdogan, and for good reasons. He is died-in-the-wool Muslim Brotherhood (MB), a loyal uneducated street thug since his youth. Meyssan showed his youth as a bodyguard of another Turkish Sultan, riding on the foot-rails of a limousine of a prior Turk Sultan. (photo above) Imagine Zelensky survives and ages 30 years into his acting role – this is the essence of Erdogan…
Even amongst his closest handlers is MI-6, as with all MB, a Sir Richard Moore, the same British MI-6 leader who handles Zelensky today (!!). The Brits are laser focused on anything impinging on Crimea and the Black Sea!! Moore was the same British ambassador to Turkey before that – and during the 2016 coup attempt against Erdogan! That Erdogan still clings to them in spite of such betrayal is illuminating of his character, abject dependency, lack of insight and unoriginality.
So with the Azov betrayal and miserable outreach to NATO, Erdogan now returns home to his roots. And these Anatolian roots have ever been control-ground zero for the British for the Black & Red Seas, Islamic world, and the Russian underbelly.
He did somewhat serve his purpose, of delaying the general world war and of thus fatally weakening NATO, but this was a bonus and unintended largesse from our Sultan. He still keeps the Black Sea uncomplicated by enforcing the Treaty of Montreux. But the truth outs during the crunch. And Sheikh Imran Hosein was spot on: Erdogan will stay loyal to NATO until Armageddon… indeed, according to his eschatological timeline, the battle to liberate Constantinople occurs AFTER Armageddon.. In my view, since Ottoman days, the Turks have been and will remain fellow travellers of the Anglo-Saxons – against Russia, Arabs, and the larger World-Island. Erdogan is merely the last Sultan of an ancient and rooted pedigree.
I am more sanguine about India. Their polity is quite corrupt, as all western-style democracies.. And the provincial Modi clique may be an outlier.. the reality is the huge bureaucracy has its will and heft too. He may not be able to do much damage, even if he wants to, of which I am not sure at all. Modi is a simple man, very much like Erdogan. From similar impoverished background, living day to day, at mercy of the slick media team around him.. like the proverbial Latin generals in their labyrinth, he is a prisoner of his environment and system… but the massive anti-imperialist and socialist Indian intelligentsia and nomenklatura should dampen many of his lusts and ill-considered moves towards the Hegemon.
What gives me great hope overall is that it takes few to decisively act in History. I’ve already mentally blocked out all except Russia, China and the USA. And China remains within its reticent shell, its ancient remote posture. The USA is floundering on every front. And Russia’s made its decision. And this decision suffices to engineer the needed change for all. And Russia is not only the key military and key commodities superpower, it sits astride the World-Island and so will geographically determine the next century.. Remember the mocking title of my sub-section on Mackinder? “The auto-da-fé of Mackinder, Spykman & Gang…” 🤣😂
So even if the 90% align with the Hegemon, it will not help the Hegemon… Fortunately such an extreme scenario does not exist. So it may help calm us to see India, Turkey, Arabs, Africa, LAC, etc.. as a luxury. Not essential to the proceedings at all. They will help legitimize the Victory, as followers always do, but they are superfluous, whether due to circumstances, heft, or temperament.
So India and Turkey only set themselves back by dithering. And their large populations largely align with multipolarity, against the corrosive elements of their elites, as shown in poll after poll. This informs the schizophrenia and wild to-and-fro swings of their agonizing useless elites too. They are afraid of nooses and pitchforks, as they should be! So these recalcitrant Indian and Turkish elites, by hook or crook, will be brought back to the normal and iron flow of the Current, if only out of self-preservation.
Don’t be sad! Live your life. Enjoy time with family and get sun. Each day is precious. We remain hopeful in spite of all. These galactical geopolitical rearrangements are not only way above our pay-grade, dwelling overlong on their morbidness harms our health too. Despite fate, the future’s not set yet. We agree with Medvedev, there’s still hope.. And Prayer can move and affect Time itself…..

Re: “you undoubtedly recall putin making erdogan wait for an audience & when they met in what seemed a smallish hall not grand, lacking russian opulence but indelibly important, dedicated to a victory”
Yes! I remember that very well. Russians can be blunt when they wish to. And they kept Erdogan’s posse standing to the side during the meeting, like a bunch of useless flunkies, lol. Here are photos of it.
It was a most dangerous moment for the Turks; they got the message, and were chastened for a while… but can a scorpion deny its nature?? We are back to square one again..
And the UkroNazi allies of the MB “avenged” the insult by dismantling Catherine the Great’s statue in Odessa, lol.
Indeed, I had a foreboding once that dancing fool of a Foreign Minister Cavusoglu was replaced with Hakan Fidan. (note his words in this article, spoken June 21, right after his appointment as FM, and from LONDON: always the servants of Empire speak of Crimea. This contest around the Black Sea region, and contiguous with Syria, is the sine qua non of the End Times…)
Fidan is one of the real power sources, or enforcers, in the Turk deep state. And like Bandar “Bush” (longest serving Saudi ambassador to USA and godfather of Al Qaeda) he ran the ISIS ratline into Syria, and much of NATO’s global world jihadist movements.
Fidan has:
- coordinated the transfer of ISIS by sea from Libya to Syria through the Barsai crossing on the Turkish-Syrian border.
- is in charge of the relations between the Turkish state, al-Qaïda and Daesh.
- was the liaison officer for the terrorists within the NATO military staff since 1990s wars on Yugoslavia. (also excellent recap of why Myanmar is eternal target of Anglos – to sever the maritime Silk Road, and the essential shortcut around Straits of Malacca to the Indian Ocean)
- According to a Russian intelligence report, in 2014 he joined Libyan jihadists to Daesh inside Turkey for a more effective front against the Syrian state.
The Turks moved front and center a godfather of Global Terror Inc. It is like making John Bolton the VP, like Cheney back in the days of Bush the Younger the Mad. So do you see why it is shortly gonna get real ugly with the Turks? And Al Assad refuses to still deal with Erdogan? That is why Russia is currently keeping its powder dry….

I forgot to include a photo with a better angle of the flunkies standing under the statue of Catherine the Great and detail of the way Putin handled them, to an electric global reception:
“The video footage of Erdogan’s reception at the Kremlin was full of unmistakable scenes of humiliation of Turkey’s president cum sultan by the czar of Russia. The body language of both leaders was revealing. As Erdogan sat next to Putin, the latter stood up and made a coarse gesture to call members of the Turkish delegation for a handshake. He acted as if he were doing them a favor or gracing them with his attention. The Turkish officials, including the foreign and defense ministers and the country’s spymaster, rushed clumsily toward Putin. They looked more like school kids called by the headmaster. Erdogan, seeing what was happening, stood and walked toward the opposite direction to shake hands with Sergey Lavrov and Sergei Shoigu, Russia’s foreign and defense ministers.
The most striking humiliation of the Turkish guests appeared in the choreography of the meeting. Footage showed the crowded Turkish delegation standing under an imposing statue of Catherine the Great, the Russian empress who annexed Crimea from Ottoman Turkey in 1783 and defeated the Ottomans several times in the Russo-Turkish wars in 1768-74 and 1787-1792. To add insult to injury, Erdogan was seated next to Putin under a bronze sculpture of Russian soldiers of the fateful Russian-Turkish War that ended in Ottoman Turkey’s defeat in 1878.”
And apparently the Arabs responded right then by (1) seeing no need for Viagra for the next full year, and (2) immediately jumping ship from the sinking Hegemon seeing how the new Tzar man-handled his regional Turk gauleiter!
“…The image is depicted by the Russian official media concerning the meeting of President Vladimir Putin with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the Kremlin last Thursday where the Turkish delegation stood under the statue of Catherine the Great, the Empress who defeated the Ottomans in Crimea and assisted the independence movements in the Arab World, especially in Egypt and Sayda (Sidon) Governorate in Lebanon. This enabled her establish herself as the Ottoman influence began to wane in many regions that used to be under its control.
…When Russian media focused on the photo of the Turkish delegation standing under the statue of Catherine the Great (1762-1796) without showing the location of the Russian delegation, it spoke volume about “veiled defeat” of Turkey in the Northern Syria battle. It’s a reminder that this same woman put the Ottoman Empire into oblivion.”
The detail with bringing them under the eyes of Catherine Romanov has multiple purposes. It also warns Russians are aware of Turk revanchism, along with their NATO hyena-pack, and will fight to defend and retain Crimea, as did the Empress Catherine.

- in 3rd left of back row is the Black Prince and current FM Hakan Fidan,
- in front row, from right-most to 3rd right are: former FM Dancing Queen Cavusoglu, the Sultan’s son-in-law Selçuk Bayraktar (yes, of same drone company), and former Def Min Hulusi Akar, among other key Turk leaders
Any Questions about love-lost between Russians and Turks?? They understand each other impeccably after nearly a millennium, as do the French and British….

HT, thx but alotta sharper pencils on this site! And I’ve enjoyed and followed geopolitics since internet came out, esp Meyssan & Pepe Escobar carefully for 20+ years. I’ve benefited from countless others too, given the blessings of the internet – a true motherlode of data and hive mind of all humanity. Each side flocks with its kind – we anti-imperialists and socialists and traditionalists have pooled resources and built each other up!
emerson, it is not only muslims but most of mankind mesmerized by the Hegemon — and against their own interests. This is why I call it above all an Empire of the Mind. It is the essence of Parasitism, no? To invade the Host and turn its energy, mind and very life-essence in absolutely fruitless and suicidal directions. But it is a worn and stale game after several millennia. They are reaping the whirlwind now. Scriptures let us know there is a fixed term of their torment against mankind.. like the prophecy below
many interpret these squabbling yet interlocking western imperialists as the last iteration of the Beast, being the feet of clay and iron of a paradigm which began with Babylon…
IMHO the City of London focused on several “lieutenants” or gauleiters in each region on earth, to further its agenda. Turkey since Ottoman times as I explained above. Germany for central Europe. Japan in East Asia. Note all were turned to fight Russia from the West, South, and East, their chief foe and permanent target (Medvedev: the Anglo-Saxons are “our eternal enemies”, as only those tormented for a millennia can honestly say of the tormentor) As you know, no significant power lives North of Russia.
More recently since WW2 it has been the Muslim Brotherhood and their crazed Salafi offspring unleashed towards the Muslim world, to seed unending chaos and prevent development. But Afro-Asia is now fighting back in a coordinated fashion for the first time in centuries… woe to the losers.
And as the mindwashing and coups are blocked, currencies-controls overcome, and their lost military supremacy turns really bitter, they will be all rolled back to wither on their resource-poor vine. So a bleak future indeed looms for Germany and its Eurocrazies, Turkey and its extremists, and Japan and its fascist discharges. They are all going down with their imperial master in London.
PS — I had cousins who lived in Turkey in 1980s and taught me some. They bitterly complained of work of freemasonry amongst Turks. For example, rumors persist Ataturk, the soldier who overturned the Ottomans and founded their republic, was a “muslim” conversos – from a Jewish tribe of Misurata, Libya. Much of the jews evicted by the Spaniards during the Reconquista settled in Libya and northern Africa.
It is noteworthy much of the traitors who served NATO and helped overturned Gaddafi were from Misurata. And Erdogan and Turkey’s key stronghold is similarly in Misurata… Coincidence? Or the resumption of ancient tribal ties??
It is no coincidence both Turkish and Russian societies are superstitious and hate/fear secret societies. Both their empires were in great part destroyed in the decadent decades leading to WW1 by elite factions subservient to secret societies, chiefly run out of London, Paris, Germany and Vatican. This is the secret glue to this day binding liberals, nazis, salafis, MB, zionists, fascists, rapturist evangelicals, etc.. Most of its members appear ignorant footsoldiers believing they work towards higher ideals and a return to cleaner days, whereas they herald evil destruction worldwide. Only a few elites at the top are consciously satanic. It is a terrible paradigm.

Carthage: in its day the commercial epicenter of the West Mediterranean
Last Image: top half @ third century BC; bottom half in present day
Pepe’s sojourn in Sicily reminded me of Carthage. I’ve never been on Sicily island itself, but saw it with unassisted eyesight at sea level from quaint Tunis hosting the remains of Carthage — they’re that close across a narrow point of the Med. That’s why both locations have historically been strategic to control — the US Navy has its 6th fleet HQ nearby and Sigonella base is on Sicily and countless other bases too, including drone and signals planes involved in daily Black Sea skullduggery.
ZZzzzzzzzz……………
Flotsam from the Maelstrom – “Nemesis visiting earlier Hegemons”
(1) [repost]Agriculture: the Secret Weapon of the Carthaginian Empire. It had been so for Pax America too, explicitly so since WW2. A US senator around 1946 boasted they would control mankind thereby.. and all other agencies helped Big Ag achieve the aims: WB/IMF/tariffs & economic hitmen forced most Global South into cash crops or single commodities basis and then external food dependency..
(2) The Harbour at Carthage: A True Ancient Marvel. They took Sea commerce and ports to impressive levels. (see photos above too)
(3) The epochal ruins today within Tunis. Little is preserved due to original Roman leveling, followed by numerous rebuilding over the last 2.2 millennia by several successor civilizations (including germanic Vandals, lol!)

These sort of atrocities are usually timed to the satanic or occult. I noted media which had the bridge struck at 4:21 am. I wondered whether it was really 4:20 — that was Hitler’s birthdate.. a major day of pilgrimage in the past to his hometown. It got so the Austrian authorities forbade visitation on that day due to being overwhelmed and sheer embarrassment.
However 4:21 is another notable day… the birthday of Queen Elizabeth II. This was also celebrated in the occult. A channel now defunct noted the hit music song by Prince called “I Would Die 4 U,” alluded to his religious devotion to her. Note the lyrics! Even within the title is encoded her birthday; the last two words numerically say, 4:21, since “U” is the 21st letter of the alphabet… crazy is crazy. They are so.
The name of this album was “Purple Rain.” Purple is color of royalty. Rain could be spelled “reign.” The demented do fashion themselves masters of all humanity, of an Empire over which the sun does not set.
And in fact a ritual took place where the persona of Prince did “die for her” on April 21, his recorded day of death. A bizarre ritual of the possessed. And keep in mind, the devoted and demented MI6, SAS and other Brit agencies largely run the Ukrainian terror regime.

Sleepy Joe blurted out, “God Bless the Queen” while in Connecticut. Talk about a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court! And being submitted, forced to acknowledge fealty to the larger Pirate-base. She was also the longest reigning royalty of all, among the British.
There’s so so much more to Prince, Purple Rain and this ritual. I’ve forgotten most of it. Prince, acknowledged a music genius, appears a central minor figure in the End Times. A herald or songster if you will of his Master.
The refrain “Rainman” or “rain” in many songs refers to the Devil or Antichrist, as this principality is the muse or pied piper of many. In fact the lyrics above explicitly say he is the Queen’s Messiah (the entity speaking through him to his other royal vessel). He also sings of being of neither gender in the first lines. The Baphomet is a hermaphrodite.. and a current wave of disturbing gender dysphoria is submerging the fallen West.. Prince proclaimed himself to be so too in his life — and looked disturbingly androgynous and changed his name to a bizarre symbol incorporating both male and female signs:
Additionally it appears to have elements of the ancient egyptian ankh (god Osiris), the circle and crescent of moloch, the coiled tail and open jaws of a serpent, etc.. demonic!
Purple is the melding of blue and red. Like gender being dissolved, politics and “false dualities” (according to their paradigm) will be broken by their false Messiah. Ordo ab Chao heralds the overturning of all prior traditions and understandings of religion, politics, gender, good and evil itself. They will thereafter build-back-better (a “b” looks like a “6” so bbb = 666) according to a new template. Note the Build Back Better theme were signature campaigns of both Biden and the Brit Boris Johnson.
The era of the AntiChrist is marked by breathtaking assault on all that was sacred in the past. “He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.” His new standards and singularly unique viewpoint will be dictated to all other religions, civilizations, and mankind.
So this ritual celebrates the coming new future and eradication of the old past. Why all history needs to be erased, and has largely been done so in the West. Any sovereign rival or even potential source of resistance will also be fought and erased. Why Russia, the kinetic bulwark of the Global South, needs to be destroyed at all costs. As above with Carthago, “Russio delenda est!”

Lighthouse of AlexandriaCrooke’s latest discussed several articles we had also discussed recently — Mac Sweeney’s excellent review of the invention of modern “West” & Mr P’s Nakedcapitalism comparison of nazi hubris in 1940s and nazi hubris today… I suppose we all contemplate the unsavory dregs of the fallen giants! We lilliputians only get to see the fall of a Gulliver once a millennium or so. As myths “pop” madness takes over.
ZZzzzzzzzz……………
Flotsam from the Maelstrom – “Perpetuation of Myths”
(1) “How much was lost when the Library of Alexandria burned?” The seismic fin de siècle such as ours have traditionally been eras of great loss of continuity — in traditions, knowledge, tech, etc. What remains is often curious. What will survive our own era??? Roman aqueducts, roads, colosseum, etc.. still exist 1.6+ millennia later. Will western standards built on contrived planned obsolescence be visible in 100 years?
(2) Paris @ 1921 Centenary of death of Napoleon. Few lessons were learned in those Roaring 20s. Even during this breather between world wars, they were prepping the Germans for next Drang nach Osten. Note the secret society brother @ 0:55 with the sign of the Hidden Hand, like his idol Old Boney in most portraits. (old boney = Napoleon in Brit slur of his era) That Roaring 20s, like Kiev/DC/City in our own Roaring 20s, saw a people wholly sold out to Mephisto.
(3) “Sometimes we wonder what winter has in store for us…” the Battle of Smolensko in just these mid to late July days of 1941, within days of launching Operation Barbarossa, impressed on the German high command that Blitzkrieg had its limits and Russians would go down fighting. A few intelligent men began to understand they were in for Old Boney’s fate… and yet like Ukies, they kept feeding the Grinder for another four years! Listen to the dawning Horror, from their own writings, within days of Operation Barbarossa, as their delusion met cold hard Reality!!
Part of their misunderestimation, to quote Dubya, was due to lack of understanding of the furious Soviet industrialization and its true capacities to wage industrial warfare (ummm. sound familiar today?). Here is the first of several nice charts by Ben Norton that explains:
The German Nazis did not encounter the same cakewalk given by secret friendlies of the western front.. those weren’t threatened with wholesale extermination for lebensraum. And this habitual nazi error of warming up with the junior varsity squad then hitting the wall of the Eastern Front is itself an earlier echo of the cakewalks of taking Iraq & Afghan & others for NATO who then blithely marched into the SMO meatgrinder.
Attrition, attrition, attrition, ever the bane of the crazed aggressor invader. Time, land, space, numbers, will, moral, the grit of fighting for your families’ lives — were always against them. UkroNatzo is merely the latest fertilizer offering to the blessed rich black soil of Novorussiya

Funny, about 3 am local I often walk in the garden and stand, watching the celestial dome, and so I was to-day, an’ imaging 5,000 years ago in some Eurasian garden. The distant barking, the distant rooster, the “trinkles” of water… not so different, and totally different. We can see the milky way fairly well, and both before dawn and after nightfall we can see, faintly, satellites during their illumination, presumably observation machinery. They move fast, so low altitude polar orbits. My hunch is that astrology is a complex of scrying – and scrying may couple to spooky action…I once knew a psychologist gal who gave it up for astrology. It worked about as well, maybe better. I know she told my fortune accurately in 1969 – it came true.

OK that will teach me to be cheeky with HT again. For once I’m speechless. I’ve met the match!
Mr P, good observation about the Jul 20 (Op Valkyrie). There are many ways to take down the madmen, short of nuclear war. If implosion is too slow, or they keep sending up canon-fodder to the Grinder, their cities can be asymmetrically “kettled” through hunger-riots. Maybe the plebs can display terrible street ornamentation.
btw, this was a plague of ancient world, and still occurs in the Global South today. Rome got to the point they distributed free rations (a sack of grain monthly) for centuries to avoid hunger-riots, so their Oligarchy could then plunder abroad undisturbed on the homefront. It appears the modern Roosky vandals are more clever their tormented germanic predecessors. No need to crash the Gates of Imperial Rome. Just crash their dinari and grain supplies, and let gravity and the plebs handle the rest. The West will become an interesting lab, concurrent with vaccine effects. I will find and share an illuminati or tarot card I saw around 2020 showing Paris burning during the Olympics, which happens to be in 2024….
Funny how you brought up the Montreax treaty. This was on my mind for months and especially in the last days. It may expire next week, as it is linked to the expiring Treaty of Sèvres and the Treaty of Lausanne, if the British have their way… Montreux appears to me a temporary concession back then to the Soviets at a point of Anglo weakness. They knew Russian lust for the Straits, and accommodated them to maintain Turk neutrality and to avoid Constantinople/Istanbul’s taking during WW2. I suspect the Sultan’s greatest, last and most fatal betrayal is in the offing. Why Russians have been keeping their powder dry to date.
I thought Hal said a few weeks ago he was expanding to new nationwide station?? So it ain’t just the rural Mormon ranches in the West listening. In a way he is doing a superb job. As hunger and impoverization will heat Eurocrazies, he raises the temperature of many decent folks against the irredeemable elites. Both regions are set on Guidelines and Hunger Games timetables by their compassionate elites.

A, in addition to the interesting cake suggested by Mr P, here are some ways we deal with severe heat (those of us unable to enjoy the exquisite weather of Kenya or Uganda 🤓🤔 — note I am NOT being cheeky, lol). Was taught a lot by Yemenis, who live in even hotter weather than you without AC (!!)
- don’t towel off after showering, lol. The evaporation cools nicely. May work best in drier climes though.. And if water is not a consideration, shower every other hour or so!
- popsicles! get several molds from dollar stores and fill every night with 90-95% mix of water and your fav fruit juice. A light fruit like grape is heavenly.. I sometimes have to fight the kids for the last one…
- go native and thumb your nose at the heat! This actually works. I get to hating the AC and turn it off. You will get used to sweating, and it is actually healthier than the artificial AC environment. I and many sleep better under the fan than under the AC, and electricity bills are more kind. Also try drinking hot tea! For many, it increases sweating and paradoxically tolerance for heat. The ambiance is no longer hell..
hot/cold can be turned on its head and be made a state of mind..

AHH> “Montreax may expire…” (!!!!!) Now my senses all aroused…Father would if by magic to send us his thought, give forth extemporaneously a legal brief on this Treaty. I have vague recollection of being perhaps 4 years old by the fire’s hearth going over maps while he explained the critical importance of the strait. His area of focus was International Law. After Magna Carta from Mother, his was perhaps my first law lecture, such as it was. But to aroused> Now I shall follow the scent.
The Brit, or nazi, if you like, view, no doubt, will follow the time-tested principle of “the Law is whatever the Judge says it is.” and claim, whatever logic and Law dictate, that the Treaty does not apply.
They say that the foreign office would find the right judge. They do have a fine records of so doing.
Was fubar in W1 not enough for the pirate raiders? “Distinguished British historians, including Basil Liddell Hart, have stated that had the campaign been carried to a successful conclusion, the war would have shortened.” Right. When, dear Basil, did it end?
There was a naval exercise @ Constanta Romania… Whatwegunnado now? may be a matter for nazis to decide between endless rushing on freebase coke…buttressed, no doubt, with a stiff backbone of pervitin. Recently Macgregor spoke to a Swedish naif of good disposition in re NATO and the US Command Structure, opining that the US structure was formed to employ generals and feed, well, you know… but that it was incapable of war. By structure, I believe, as well as resources and defective policies.
………………….
BBC said Iraq affray Swedish provocations “small fire” and went on to some distraction, and nothing about this psychop is seen on site…which says it is ! Cute. So one “plan B” is to provoke emotion among the believers, “rumble the fractious ungrateful savages in the rebellious colonies.” Now, for Pittsburgh PA…. I can’t imagine another election season in USA… plan B….
………….BTW I agree with everything about the hot weather tactic. Chinese people say to drink warm water, I have read. Simple sugars and alcohol are not beneficial, of course. We arrange the day to follow the pattern, knock off work about noon, nap/read/fan. We have also a big AC, Mrs P favors that, I less so… When dear amarynth spoke of the condensate wetting things… well, this big house AC machine inhabits to loci, one inside, one outside. The inside evaporative machinery of course precipitates water, and there’s a drain pipe through the wall. This pipe, however, clogged… and insidiously wetness wicked up through hundreds of books. Most we saved, but the damages are forever. This drain circuit got modified so that I can in passing give a puff into a section of hose to sense any clogging. I mean to build an outside shower… But in the more simple way of things, a plastic “solar shower” thing hung in the sun or shade is very welcome. We lived that way for years, more or less. Oh, thinking back to Anita’s rice dish…perhaps some bits too of mutton. Longtimeago.

Just a bit of some rascal’s art work, right?
But set art aside…and note that RT news people on air misunderstand the NATO treaty….RT needs to commission perhaps a “special investigation documentary” on the Treaty, its background and the cryptonazis, and open nazis, who peopleds this device. and what the several articles actually mean, which isn’t what RT has been saying.
(amarynth, dear, if you want it gone, then please remove the art work, it’s perhaps too brutally true)

Here’s the Brit adage:
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”Dull is blandly said to be “boring.” It appears a pun. Like a sharp knife blunted, the intrinsically razor sharp human mind has been neutered. Submitted. A satanic mockery, no? The second part, made into a rhyme, makes this explicit:
“All play and no work makes Jack a mere toy.”Perhaps the second part also applies to the crafting of the ideal leisure class, one that is putty in elite decider hands. The current functionaries of NGOs abroad who are what Michael Hudson aptly termed, “talent scouts for traitors.”
Stanley Kubrick had a field day with this in his masterpiece “The Shining (1980).” This was a very deep movie. I hate horror, and didn’t initially like it, but came to appreciate its layers, more apparent with each viewing. It is 7 movies or so in one really: on the psychopathy of Anglo elites; genocide of native Americans; the abuse of gold in the world economy; pedophilia; the moon landings; incest; nature of madness, etc… He had moved from New York to England in 1961. He apparently realized he had moved from the Big Satan to the Really Big Satan.
Anyway, he used that saying of Jack to drive home several plots. On madness. Was it a reveal too of the essence of feudalism by the cruel and calculating Brits — to work a man to death — not only to maximize profit, but the Eugenicists did it to cull and weed out those who couldn’t hang in the inhuman system.
It even affected the upper middle class: resident-doctors in the US as recently as 20 years ago had finally received limitation of their weekly duty hours to 120 hours/ week (!!!) Do the math. Imagine their workload and duty hours before this, when it was merely reduced to a maximum of 17 hrs/day….
We joked amongst ourselves it was the last form of slave labor in USA. Even with those hours, and largely carrying the workload of hospitals, residents back then averaged some $30-35,000/annum (!!) And US medicine had inherited this brutal system from Pax Britannica in 19th century. Does it help explain why most western docs were perfunctory, cold, somewhat antisocial, and content to treat symptoms rather than the whole person? They were invariably too tired and punching in the clock, like a factory hand.
Father noted two facts several decades ago that shocked: (1) some of the dumbest humans he had ever known were docs in the West. They worked hard, but lacked imagination or ability to think outside the box. Maybe he didn’t factor in the workload and how many came to hate humanity too. They were essentially zombies, and by design.
(2) few professions were as potentially capable of being spiritual leaders in our dark age. Like Moses, who was trained in the best universities of his age, in superpower Egypt, and then received Revelation, they could combine the material and the eternal immaterial.
This also informs elite design of medical curricula, like the undergraduate, of dumbing down to blindly follow algorithms (benefiting Big Pharma), and treat symptoms, rather than to truly fly. And above all to so dangle the carrot of fabulous wealth to keep busy these natural leaders that they could not overturn the satanic paradigm.
And as we discussed above, they also did it to keep folks too tired, busy, and hand-to-mouth to not interfere with the plundering ways of their betters. Note what Crooke said about the demands of bourgeoisie after WW2:
“At the end of the two World Wars, west Europeans had sought a fairer society (the industrial society that had preceded the wars was frankly both feudal and brutal). Europeans wanted a new deal that cared for the less advantaged too. It was not socialism per se that was sought, though some plainly did want communism. Essentially, it was about re-inserting some ethical values into an amoral laissez-faire economic sphere.”The feudal West can’t have it both ways. Squeeze the very life-force, imagination, and innovation out of their dehumanized “human labor,” and compete against the larger, organized and industrial socialist states with a sense of stewardship and compassion breeding élan in a cohesive resilient society. This is why the smarter western philosophers of the early 20th century knew they were doomed and the future lay with Russia.
The miracle is their momentum of 400 years of Plunder still kept them going another 100 years. And here we are

It never occurred to me that computers rust in very humid climates. Would a dehumidifier make any difference in such an environment?
One could deduct the cost of acquisition for ACs and dehumidiers as “work related” usage. How else to save our digitally stored work?
Ancient Chinese doctors would only get paid so long their retained clients stayed healthy. “One cough and no more coins until you’ve fixed it doc”.
Obviously, dead patients stop paying. So no incentive to prescribe us those pesky jabs.

Re: “I much prefer being just a hand.” Me too. Less grief with less effort for a more productive and satisfying work environment. You get to do a job to your satisfaction, conscientiously, knowing you didn’t harm another human being.. Truly, it’s the dimwits in our disaster capitalism era which float to the top, no??
Re: “The diffidence Mac shows to Mr K struck me hard. He spoke as to a superior.” the good colonel is a company man. Bred and true. And has been given the medals and stature and platform to match. He knows his place and salutes his betters….. all u need to know.
The British-designed medical residency is truly inhumane and satanic. So many hours are spent onsite in the hospital, that every resident is given a small sleeping quarters. I still have PTSD when I hear a pager ring, and have refused to carry one for decades!
Residencies last an average of four years or so, depending on specialty. And keep in mind, in the USA – the track is as follows: 4 years of High School (HS), 4 of undergraduate studies, 4 of med school (MD), THEN 4+ of residency. For some surgical subspecialty residencies, such as cardiothoracic, it can be 9-12 years (!!). So up to 20 years post-HS.. And often to even qualify, they had to publish and get PhDs in advance — so many literally graduate as greybeards…
Even middling subspecialties like neurosurgery (~7 years post-MD) cauterizes a person’s life; a Joke: “the quality of the neurosurgeon is measured by # of divorces.” One of my mentors during first year wardship (in MD program, first two years are classroom and physical sciences lab didactics and last two years in hospital training) was deep into his own residency in vascular surgery and recommended we DO NOT enter that specialty track given work hours alone (!). I think he was determined to finish it himself not for the imminent $500k/yr but he had already spent 13-14 years post-HS. It was too late to back out and hefty bills awaited. He was a superb and humane physician too.
All this informs why medicine steadily lost the smartest minds – who sped into finance and get rich quick ponzi schemes. The money was not seen to be worth the terms of labor… all this deliberate IMHO, to desensitize each generation’s new docs so they do not care too much. The sheer workload makes them cynical and turns some antisocial.
Many get so used to the crazy work hours, thinking it is normal, not having understanding of history, human nature and bodily/mind/spiritual needs — that they continue working ridiculous hours. For example, in Emergency Med, they work average 12-hr shifts, about 4 days in a row/wk for about 2-3 weeks, a week off, then same 12-hr/4-shifts but at night. This wrecks havoc on sleep patterns, social life, life satisfaction itself. Even for those who love it… Their average career length is 9 years due to this madness (!!) Imagine all the pain, 12 years post-HS, for 9 years! The more intelligent get out early and transition to another specialty or enter academic medicine with more support, with research interests spreading out the pain. The entire Medical Cartel is geared to making docs so tired they are non-thinking zombies, killing themselves even as they work on palliative care on equally disturbed patients.
One of the best advice was given me by what I suspect was a bipolar air force generalist – an Irish catholic with good intentions, if a little batshit crazy. He’d travelled all over the US and abroad and noted most US docs were as debt-trapped as the rest. Many started spending WAY outta line during residency – they were docs now and deserved the best, no?? Imagine spending like crazy on $30k/yr for 4- 12 years, on top of $2-500k school loans, and $2-300k new home…. most take 30+ years to dig out. Why most did not blink and gave the killshots on command in 2021-2022…
Even after residency, many let egos get to their heads and overspent… million dollar homes above their means, latest luxury cars and bling, living paycheck-to-paycheck even though hauling $3-500k/yr! And many married to other docs too. The sheer madness of the entire society. This was one of his most useful charts for keeping a balance in life:
A friend’s father, a shrink, who’d entered medicine in 60-70s, complained he was earning far less while still seeing more patients. So medicare/medicaid was legislating them to death, as much of reimbursement ran through them and they set the insurance payments industry standards too.
Some docs spent 1-3 hours post-office hours on charts alone, after 8-10 hours seeing 28-40 patients (!!) trying to keep up with filing requirements both legally to cover their behind in a litigation-happy environment as well as reimbursement hoops needing satisfying with every single patient. Such an unhealthy and unhappy environment!!
NB: all this served to wipe out single practitioners, the honest independent backbone of primary care in the USA. Often the leaders of small-town Americana. They could not keep up with lawfare requirements and keep personal time. They pulled their shingles and joined multi-practitioner, or multi-specialty teams, and even these were becoming untenable due to billing requirements and workload. So they joined hospitals and huge private corporations. And became voiceless cogs in the iron wheel, earning paychecks and told what to prescribe and which algorithm to follow…
This is why as soon as I completed my residency, I got the hell outta dodge.
Even abroad this inhuman system followed, as the US/Brit system is most widely adopted worldwide. So I entered into academic medicine. It pays less, but following academic cycles you can take several months off per year, less onerous work hours even during the 9-10 months/yr (typically clinic is only one day/wk, the rest teaching & research). And particular bonus for me, as was in a history-teaching track in undergrad — I love teaching.
The entire western paradigm, crafted with satanic exactitude by the Brits, is dying on every level. Do you understand why the French youth, busy torching the entire nation, have the most sense?? When it gets this bad, it must be brought down. Only on the other side of the ashes is there hope….

Thank you kindly, Brother.
The academy had advantages, as you may realize Mother and Father cottoned to those very advantages…and it meant inter alia, despite heavy schedules, at least schedules! And periods for family. It worked, but not very well. There are a few trades – US merchant marine officer Captain (tanker any tonnage any ocean!) – last I know – 6 months and a day “on”, the balance of the year “off”. He blew most of the “off” time with whores and coke… and he’s dead. He did have a great series of “off” adventures, and several stimulating divorces. The construction trades are actually rather fun, especially in the union trades – the major difference being union builds a pension, and scabbin’ don’t. Union jobs are safer too. That matters…a serious injury, a small fall – can fubar the entire rodeo… An occupational hazard for the trades is a variety of honey-traps…father or not if they know your name…and emergency exparte court orders for support issue like confetti here in homoliberalanstalt. I have advised the fellas to stop going to bars and move up in class – and socialize with proper ladies. Some have done, and it’s saved them grief and money! The Union Contract can be a warm secure blanket…and a shield.
If I remember correctly, Mother was the sole “employee” for her surgeon father in a dusty Midwest town. Ran the office, and I think his brothers and he were combined for a time…During the depression that was. They got by, but had to keep a large garden (!). As I once said, at 16 she was at Stanford…a runaway! And obediently returned when her father came out to Palo Alto and asked her please to do so. I have the idea that I know the story because she had come to doubt that choice. So I share it for memory.
I had not really thought about the French youth and their motivation….in unworkable systems numerous simultaneous or near simultaneous “ignitions” tends to occur, so, with a shrug, I expect spontaneous manifestations throughout westzone. Everyone with power will try to exploit or stimulate or direct this in their desired ways, and these disparate efforts will produce a vector sum nobody desired – so I assume.
Corbett on Rockefeller speaks to the medicine take-over the art and rule it- plot, seems congruent, iirc, with your description. The cryptonazifinks turned art into pornography,compassion into icy cunning, love to hate…and see evil as good…recalling the classical quote. I did take on some mortgage debt, longtimeago…but weuns cotton to pay cash or do without. Quakercussidness? Caution…an’ shunning usury.
The hate felt toward Rus by westzone, this to me is a claim unsupported by memory. I always liked the Ruskies…and remember a rogue white Russian neighbor, obviously a genteel officer of Imperial Russian Army, abroad and engaged in the crimes of his class and trade… Neat fella. He went poof one day and was never seen again… no kidding. Looking back…weeeel…https://youtu.be/w-N_z6-T2CM Yeah, so I think. Anyway the idea that west hates east – well, I can see that’s where the easy loot resides, but ordinary multitudes do not lust for the Russian treasures – people say to me that they see Putin as a good Russian leader, good for Russia, but that they don’t care a whit for Russia one way or t’other. I don’t doube the claims, but they must apply to some other “demographic” than that in which we reside.
Enough! Sun’s up and do some work! Later…
Best! P

“Corbett on Rockefeller speaks…” Exactly. This is what I was getting at. As with elementary education controlled by Carnegie and other foundations following the prudent Prussian design to regiment the entire society into obedient worker-drones and warrior-drones, so it was for medicine.
And like a start-gun going off, all these trusts and foundations did this legwork to craft the society that exists today around ww1 – many key medical orgs and academies and medical curricula criteria were established and legislated into mandatory state credentialing back then around the same time too. Prussian totalan krieg taught them to control all — even elite classes and the desirable tastes so as to not get in the way of the total war effort.
I was lucky. I was in a more humane generalist field. I really felt for the surgical guys, who drew the short end of the stick during training. And I came in at a time onerous duty hours were being limited to a max of 120 hrs/ weeks.. even so I was on call 2-3 nights per week in first year with two 36 continuous hrs weekly.
These 36 hours in a row typically began with 8 hours of outpatient clinic (or hospital rotation), then overnight hospital ER triaging/admitting our patients as well as following admitted inpatient wards during their overnight needs, and with last 4 hours or so in another clinic the next morning (!!) Would you want to be treated by anyone on his 33rd continuous hour in a life and death moment?!!! It is a brutal and brutalizing system, designed by British madmen.
I do appreciate timetables and the need to instill discipline and rote habit, necessary for the novice and which occurs with repetition and time.. the safest medical care is at the hands of practiced practitioners going through the muscle memory of “the usual care.” Contrary to accepted public wisdom, you do not want “the best care” — that can more often lead to mistakes and complications by the self-conscious; a guy doing the same thing he’s done for 10,000 other patients is much safer. And “idle hands are the devil’s workshop.”
But this was different. I was disturbed at the whole during training and even more so during reflection with the passage of time. Docs were undergoing an initiation of sorts, an involuntary trauma-based one as during covid with its lockdowns, masking, lack of human contact such as no hand-shaking, social distancing, working from home, even avoiding outdoors beaches and playgrounds for kids, the least at-risk age-group (!!).
This type of damage continues on looong after the trauma is removed, like a dormant yet weakening cancer. Every day in my town I see poor folks still driving alone or walking outdoors with a mask. This was never seen before 2020… folks became broken and damaged in terrible ways.
For example, among the consequences even for ostensibly intelligent and all-knowing docs is a curious lack of self-reliance and blind adherence to official guidelines. When one is habitually worn out and forced to make life & death decisions, one clings to authoritative algorithms — proffered by the CDC, FDA, specialty academies and boards, etc… imprinted during the traumatic process. One becomes like a fastidious chemist or cook — treating the numbers and odds rather than the complete unique human in front of you. And focused on acute care rather than comprehensive prevention with a judicious eye capable of zooming in and out from the here-and-now to the wider view. To be fair, sub-specializing furthered this latter process; each focuses on his narrow point of care.
Who benefits? It is a harsh and often career-long regimentation that has been instilled, of shaping fearful, diffident “healers” who do not think outside the box. This paradigm benefits neither the patient, physician nor the wider society deprived of essential public health and primary care. And imho, this is beyond just feeding the Medical Cartel and Big Pharma. It is about larger control, no? Medical care, like US foreign policy, has unaccountable forces behind the scenes driving it, to same catastrophic ends…
Docs largely had their authority and true wherewithal stripped, before they even got out of the gate, and ceased to have the courage to be communal leaders.. Docs were neutered and entire societies harmed, so sad…. And so, no one is available as a father figure, as a leader, as a source of inspiration and good. Nihilism and darkness prevails, filling the vacuum. This is how to take a civilization down
PS – the equivalent take-down of lawyers paced that of the medical practitioners.. remember Atticus Finch, Perry Mason, etc…?? Idealism lost, replaced by blood-suckers. And we arrived today at a “Justice Dep” which openly shields the Biden crime family
