US Fracking companies are going bust like Party Balloons. Good news for the planet! But…

But how the hell did they get permission and investment to drill MILLIONS of toxic wells in their own back yards? Well for one thing a whole lot of state and media sponsored nationalistic HYPE to make the US self sufficient in gas and oil. Plus almost free loans backed by the US superpower privilege to ”just print money’.

And always the BIG WIN around the corner, sure to come, just by investing one more time.

There is a huge global spike in methane, one of the most potent greenhouse gases driving climate change over the last decade, according Harvard University Studies. The U.S. is the biggest culprit, mostly from oil and gas fracking wells, there are over a million of them active.

Then there was the ‘wizard wheeze’ to compress the glut of gas into LNG and ship it to the US vassal states worldwide, investing lucratively in not one but many conversion and port facilities..

Destroying the environment doesn’t count it seems ‘‘The Earth is put there by God to be used up by me”.. . Does it say that somewhere in the Bible?

So.. Export as Liquid Natural Gas.. A sure fire winner? You bet your bottom dollar ! But US frack gas LNG, even at rock bottom prices, will always be much dearer due to transport costs than Qatari, Russian or Australian gas. And despite US strongarm threats to force vassal states to buy it the giant LNG facilities in construction are already looking like ‘stranded assets’.

Turkey’s military operations are part of an extermination policy against the Kurdish populations.

Veysi Dag 17 July 2020

While the world is busy with COVID-19, Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s regime is actively engaged with its pan-Islamic and nationalistic ambitions in eliminating the most “disloyal” segments of the Kurdish population.

The Turkish military has launched military operations called “Claw-Tiger” and “Claw Eagle” in June 2020 against the Kurdish militant forces in Northern Iraq, following its military operation, named “Operation Peace Spring” in October 2019 and “Operation Olive Branch” against the Kurds in Northern Syria in January 2018 as well as uninterrupted crackdown against the Kurds Turkey.

Using drone strikes, the Turkish air force has recently killed at least two Kurdish refugee women in the Maxmur Refugee Camp, left a number of civilian casualties in Kuna-Massi, a tourist resort, killed five civilians in Sheladize and a number of Yezidi activists in the Sinjar region of Iraq.

Moreover, the Turkish drone strike killed three civilian women in Kobane, and the Turkish military killed hundreds of civilians and displaced hundreds of thousand of civilians in Afrin in Northern Syria.

These Turkish military operations are part of an extermination policy against the Kurdish population which includes the purging of Kurdish politicians, journalists and activists in Turkey.

Don’t just trust my word. Look into these issues for yourself., and better yet, find your own information.

Testing will soon begin in poverty-stricken parts of Africa for a biometric ID which will also be your payment system and vaccine record. 

The biometric digital identity platform that “evolves just as you evolve” is backed by none other than the Bill Gates-backed GAVI vaccine alliance, Mastercard, and the AI-powered “identity authentication” company, Trust Stamp.

The GAVI Alliance, which is largely funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates and Rockefeller Foundations, as well as allied governments and the vaccine industry, is principally concerned with improving “the health of markets for vaccines and other immunization products,” rather than the health of individuals.

According to its own website Mastercard’s GAVI partnership is directly linked to its “World Beyond Cash” effort, which mainly bolsters its business model that has long depended on a reduction in the use of physical cash.

Reducing the use of cash is needed (by them!). Cash is impossible to track, but if you use centralized digital currency, the ruling class has complete control over what you can spend.

Can tear gas mess with your period By Alexandria Herr from Grist, shared with thanks

If you found yourself googling “Can tear gas mess with your period” in the last few months, it turns out you aren’t alone.

Tear Gas is on the list of banned war weapons yet it is used against innocent civilians. Though it has devastating health effects, the male dominated research industry has never investigated its effects on women’s menstrual cycle.

Several people who were exposed to the tear gas during the recent protests in response to police brutality have come forward online to say they experienced painful disruptions to their menstrual cycle. These anecdotes have prompted concern over the chemical’s impact on reproductive health.

Mallory (who did not want to include her last name due to the personal nature of her experience) was tear gassed by the police in late May as part of a crowd of protestors in Columbus, Ohio. Four days later, she says she got her period — two weeks earlier than expected, and heavier and more painful than she had experienced in a long time.

“I was bleeding through my pants even with a tampon,” she said. “It was pretty overwhelming.”

Ultimately, Mallory says she had two periods in the length of her typical menstrual cycle — the early one, and then one at the usual time. But it wasn’t until she started seeing people connecting the dots between tear gas and menstrual irregularities online that she realized her recent exposure to tear gas might have something to do with it.

Protesters report adverse effects from tear gas exposure …

I’m a mess…I just started my period AGAIN. That’s the third time since repeatedly heavily exposure to teargas in the uprisings.Others are saying regardless of IUDs or taking T, they’re having multiple periods too. @ColumbusGov tell the people what’s happening to our bodies.

She talked to her gynecologist, who didn’t have answers as to whether there was a connection. But Mallory kept thinking about it. “It’s not normal for everyday civilians to be exposed to multiple rounds of tear gas,” she said.
