THIS WEEK IN REVIEW

Over the past week at the Hanford Nuclear facility in eastern Washington, 3,000 gallons of nuclear material leaked from a defective inner shell of a double-shell storage tank into its outer shell. The facility was built in 1943 to accommodate plutonium production for World War II. Despite assurances by the US department of Energy and the Washington State Department of Ecology that the leak poses no risk to the public, a former employee (who was the one who first reported the leak) says it is catastrophic.

Here are a few recent so-called hate crimes that turned out to be hoaxes: A gay preacher claimed that the staff at a Whole Foods store wrote ‘fag’ on his cake, but evidence from the surveillance camera indicates that he himself wrote it to draw attention to discrimination. Another example occurred at Kean University in New Jersey where a black student made death threats to all black students but later admitted she did it in order to generate enthusiasm for her racial-injustice rally. [When governments do this, it is called a false-flag operation.] InfoWars 2016 Apr 21 (Story)

Key West, Florida: Residents are hopping mad at the CDC, the FDA and Oxitec, the producer of GMO mosquitoes. They do not want to be experimented upon with millions of engineered insects that the government plans to release supposedly to fight the Zika virus. The residents are planning to sue government officials who are forcing the experiment on them. [Note that the news reporters pretend not to know anything about the well-circulated reports showing that the alleged danger from this virus is a complete hoax.] ABC News 2016 Apr 21 (Story)

Pakistan: Shooters on motorbikes killed seven policemen who were guarding health workers administering polio vaccines during a 3-day vaccine drive. Since December, 2012, an estimated 80 workers have been killed in similar incidents. [Curiously, the news makes no mention of the probable motive behind the attacks. Could it be outrage at the spread of polio by the vaccines?] Shanghai Daily 2016 Apr 20 (Story) (Cached)

Michigan: A District Judge accepted charges against three state and local officials involved in the Flint water-pollution tragedy in which tens of thousands of people were poisoned. This is the first time a public official has been charged with a crime in this matter. The defendants are charged with tampering with evidence and other crimes. Governor Rick Snyder has refused to resign but promised to drink Flint water for a month to prove it is safe. RT 2016 Apr 20 (Story)

The World Health Organization is calling for the destruction of the triple-strain, live-virus, oral, polio vaccine because it can cause polio. Last year, 100 cases of polio were reported, and 30 of them were caused by the vaccine. David Knight reports that authorities are trying to cover up the fact that the vaccine causes the disease it claims to cure. InfoWars 2016 Apr 19 (Story)

Here is another report on the fact that the 3-strain oral polio vaccine is a primary cause of polio. It is significant, however, in that it is released by a strongly pro-Big-Pharma publication. Even though it states the facts in the most pro-vaccine way possible (“Don’t worry, folks. We now have a better vaccine.”) the truth is in the story nevertheless: Within the last 10 years, there have been 725 cases of polio paralysis, and 90% of those were caused by the vaccine.

A Gulf War veteran had his children taken away by the State of Kansas over his use of marijuana as a medical treatment for PTSD symptoms (sometimes called battlefield stress) . The bigger story is that Child Protective Services and the profit-driven industry that it funds kidnaps children from families and adopts them out for profit. Armies of lawyers, social workers, psychologists, therapists, judges, and local governments depend on the system for funding. Bonus payments are made to states when adoptions increase, and bonuses range form $5000 to $10,000 per child adopted. InfoWars 2016 Apr 19 (Story)

California: Assemblyman Kevin McCarty has submitted a bill that would close down most if not all gun stores. Among other things, the law would require videotaping all transactions using facial-recognition technology and also require gun dealers to carry at least $1 million in liability insurance. [We do not think this bill will pass as it stands, but you never know what to expect in the People’s Republic of California.] Breitbart 2016 Apr 19 (Story) (Cached)

Germany is prosecuting Lutz Bachmann, leader of a group called PEGIDA (Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the West). His ‘crime’ is allegedly inciting racial hatred with Facebook comments in which he is said to have described migrants as cattle, scum, and trash. DW 2016 Apr 19 (Story) (Cached)

Deutsche Bank admitted it conspired to rig gold and silver prices. In addition to paying fines, the bank also agreed to expose others participating in the price-fixing scheme. Other banks have agreed to similar actions, so it appears that the conspiracy may be unwinding – at least at the inter-bank level. See the following report on the even larger scheme involving gold belonging to governments. ZeroHedge posted posted 2016 Apr 18 (Story) (Cached)

In response to lawsuits filed by gold and silver traders, Deutsche Bank has reached financial settlements for manipulating gold and silver prices. While this is a step forward, it fails to address an even larger manipulation of gold prices, which is the practice of central banks ‘lending’ gold belonging to their governments to commercial banks, which then dump it on the open market to depress the price.

Emails reveal that New York’s Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and other collaborating Attorneys General secretly collaborated with Rockefeller-funded environmental groups to intimidate and prosecute those who reject the theory of global warming. Fox News 2016 Apr 18 (Story) (Cached)

Japan: Two major earthquakes on April 14 and 16 killed at least 42 people and caused severe damage to homes, roads, and bridges. Journalists have expressed concern over the safety of the nation’s only operating nuclear plant on Kyushu island, but nuclear regulators say there is no evidence of sufficient damage to the facility to close it down.

An 18-year old Connecticut girl, who was forced by the courts last year to undergo chemotherapy for Hodgkins lymphoma, says her cancer is back. She did not want to poison her body with chemotherapy, but the state denied her freedom to choose because she was considered a minor. Now that she is 18, she is pursuing alternative, non-toxic treatments. NY Post 2016 Apr 18 (Story) (Cached)

A report in The New York Times says that Saudi Arabia is threatening to sell off $750 billion in US bonds if Congress passes a bill that would allow 9/11 victims to sue foreign governments. This is in response to recent pressure to declassify a Joint Congressional Inquiry report that implicates Saudi officials living in the US as key players in the 9/11 terrorist plot. It may be no coincidence that fifteen of the nineteen alleged ‘hijackers’ were Saudi citizens. CNN 2016 Apr 16 (Story)

The Obama administration issued 680,000 green cards to foreigners from Muslim countries during a five-year period, which is more than double the amount of European immigrants receiving green cards. This confirms that it is the policy of the federal government to favor Muslim immigration over others. [It is our opinion that this is not motivated by favoritism for Muslims but to dilute the traditional American culture and to create division and discord. A divided America is a weak America and, thereby, less resistant to world government.] Judicial Watch posted 2016 Apr 16 (Story) (Cached)

German Chancellor Angela Merkel has complied with the demands of Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan and will allow a German citizen to be prosecuted in Germany for writing a crude, satirical poem about Erdogan. DC Whispers posted 2016 Apr 16 (Story) (Cached)

The UN is hoping to put the Paris climate-change treaty into effect in 2018 instead of 2020 as originally anticipated. Earlier this month, the US and China announced they would join the Paris Agreement in 2016. Google, Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft are promoting the deal and warned that any opposition would prove ‘costly’ to both the global economy and human well-being.

The documentary Salmon Confidential shows that the Canadian government is covering up the cause of a dwindling population of its Pacific Coast Salmon. It is caused by fish farms that keep salmon in pens. Fish farms breed pathogens that can spread rapidly and contaminate wild fish swimming nearby. This causes wild salmon to die from leukemia, retroviruses, brain tumors, and immune-system decay. All farm-raised fish, not just salmon, are fed a concoction of antibiotics and vitamins. Some are fed synthetic pigments to make up for the lack of natural flesh coloration due to an altered diet. Mercola posted 2016 Apr 16 (Story) (Cached)
