these are the sort of items which could easily be called blowback due to 'our way of life';


Thanks to the overprescription of antimicrobial drugs and use of antifungicides in crop production, a relatively new germ that preys on people with weakened immune systems is rapidly spreading across the globe, according to the New York Times.

The infection – a fungus called Candida auris, kills half of patients who contract it within 90 days, according to the CDC – as it’s impervious to most major antifungal medications. First described in 2009 after a 70-year-old Japanese woman showed up at a Tokyo hospital with C. auris in her ear canal, the aggressive yeast infection has spread across Asia and Europe – arriving in the US by 2016.

The earliest known case in the United States involved a woman who arrived at a New York hospital on May 6, 2013, seeking care for respiratory failure. She was 61 and from the United Arab Emirates, and she died a week later, after testing positive for the fungus. At the time, the hospital hadn’t thought much of it, but three years later, it sent the case to the C.D.C. after reading the agency’s June 2016 advisory. –NYT........https://www.theburningplatform.com/2019/04/06/mysterious-drug-resistant-germ-deemed-an-urgent-threat-is-quietly-sweeping-the-globe/

should you wonder why i regularly post items in opposition to israel, here are a few sentences to explain that written by others;

Because no other claimed democratic government:

1. Kills unarmed protestors, including students, as an everyday alleged security operation and imprisons thousands of dissidents, including teenagers, without trial

2. Imposes a inhumane blockade of essential goods upon 2 million civilians in an illegal effort to produce a regime change in an entire population by denying it adequate electricity and water, medical, food and building supplies – for more than 10 years with the result that an entire people are now predominately unemployed, with inadequate food and water, no jobs and no future – all this under the transparent pretext of ‘arms control’

3. Treats over 20% of its own people as second-class citizens with restricted civil rights purely because of their ethnicity

4. Refuses to allow UN inspectors from the IAEA to inspect its undeclared nuclear weapon stores, now estimated to contain up to 400 warheads in secret underground bunkers

5. Refuses to be a party to the nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty,  the Chemical Weapons or the Biological Weapons Conventions (CWC/ BWC)

6. Refuses to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 2334 that demands its withdrawal from all Occupied Territories including the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, or with UNSCR 497 which stipulates that Israel’s ‘decision to impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration in the Occupied Golan Heights is null and void and without international legal effect.’   Consequently, US President Trump’s recent decision, in collusion with AIPAC the Zionist lobby, regarding the Golan Heights is a violation of international law and a threat to global peace........https://www.globalresearch.ca/why-israel-seen-treating-united-nations-total-contempt/5673754

caitlin writes here about julian assange and what the assault upon him by the empire is about, and why his freedom is of concern to you;


By the time I publish this we’ll be at or around the 24-hour mark since WikiLeaks announced that two high level Ecuadorian government insiders had told them that Julian Assange faces eviction from the Ecuadorian embassy within days, which seems to have been further confirmed by the Foreign Minister of Ecuador now tweeting that states have the right to revoke political asylum at any time. Activists are mobilizing everywhere, a round-the-clock presence has been set up outside the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and a #Unity4J emergency broadcast is currently underway full of many respected dissident voices coming together in defense of the legendary leak publisher........https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/04/06/why-your-hatred-of-assange-is-completely-irrelevant/

i post this found comment so more things can be considered than are in the standard 'free press' crap you see on the tv;

I’m sure that you’ve heard the concerns that people have about some anti gunners using the law to disarm neighbors, or family members out of spite or over politics. I suspect that would be a common abuse.
One thing that no one seems to consider is abusive exes. If I live in a state with red flag laws then I can get the police to disarm my ex wife, or girlfriend if I intend to harm her. I could simply call the police, and say that she’s suicidal and may harm herself or others. The cops disarm her, and now she’s helpless. So much for the Dems being the party of women.
I doubt that anyone has considered this. You have a huge public forum. Feel free to pass on this concern if you want. It is a great arguing point if nothing else.

at the link there are comments and other links that may add to the confusion and illumination of the question;

In the Ethiopian 737 crash, impact with the ground occured at an estimated 575 mph. Debris is clearly visible in the crash scene photos. Why didnt the debris evaporate like it did for Flight 93 on 9/11?............https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/b9zbjs/in_the_ethiopian_737_crash_impact_with_the_ground/
