During the month of August 2022, the U.S. Marine Corps conducted the first ever live-fire ‘wargame’ for its new CH-53K King Stallion, over the Saylor Creek bombing/gunnery range in South-Central Idaho.

Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron (HMH) 461 had the honors, and launched out of the U.S. Air Force’s Mountain Home Air Force Base, in Southwestern Idaho. HMH-461 in based in North Carolina, they chose Idaho to test their new mount, because Idaho is geographically and climatically different from North Carolina.

The USMC, and Lockheed-Sikorsky, claim the new-build CH-53K is more powerful, can fly higher, can stay airborne longer, is safer and easier to maintain than the older CH-53E Super Stallion.

In my opinion, the King Stallion is different enough that it should be considered its own helicopter family, apart from the CH-53 lineage.

For the first time ever, the United Nations (UN) has joined forces with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), in the Southwest Asian (Middle East) Kingdom of Jordan, to prepare for possible nuclear attack on oil industry infrastructure!

Believe it or not, Jordan is a NATO Partner (a step below being a full NATO Member), and in June 2022, Jordan’s British empire imposed King Abdullah-The-Second stated he would support the creation of a ‘Middle East NATO’!

NATO image, Jordanian Petroleum Refinery, 11SEP2022.

The NATO side of the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) training is through NATO’s Defence (British empire spelling) and Related Security Capacity Building Initiative. According to NATO, this CBRN training was initiated three years ago, at the request of the King of Jordan. Bora Önen, NATO Defence and Related Security Capacity Building team leader, explains:

The war game scenario involved a nuclear ‘dirty bomb’ being unleashed on an oil refinery. Khan Jahier, policy officer with NATO’s Enablement and Resilience Section, Defence Policy and Planning Division:

Ulrik P. Ahnfeldt-Mollerup, with the UN Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT), explains why the UN joined with NATO for the CBRN training in Jordan, and it involves the old False Flag standby; religious extremists:

Operation Jupiter: Scientists create new deadlier Omi-S while proving m-R-N-A does not work!

Video October 19, 2022 Hutchins AAron

19 October 2022 (11:09-UTC-07 Tango 06) 27 Mehr 1401/23 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1444/24 Geng-Xu 4720/19 октября 2022 года

Scientists in the leftist-liberal-progressive state of Massachusetts have created a new Coronavirus with an 80% kill rate! They call it Omi-S.

In a Boston University lab, scientists claiming to be trying to prove that the spikes on viruses (aka Spike Proteins) are the key to their infectiousness, combined different Coronaviruses and apparently created a more deadly virus. By the way, when scientists play god with pathogens this is officially known as Gain of Function.

The just published, yet to be peer reviewed, study is called Role of spike in the pathogenic and antigenic behavior of SARS-CoV-2 BA.1 Omicron, go read it for yourself.

Omi-S is a combination of “…the S gene of Omicron in the backbone of an ancestral SARS-CoV-2 isolate…”, the result of this Gain of Function experiment is “the Omicron S-carrying virus inflicts severe disease with a mortality rate of 80%.” However, the protein spikes have “…an appreciable but minimal role in…pathogenicity”.

“Mutations in the spike RBM are major drivers of Omicron’s escape from neutralization”

But buried within the study is the discovery that the Omicron protein spikes appear to play a major role in protecting the virus from mRNA vaccines: “…we examined if Omi-S captures the immune escape phenotype of Omicron. A large body of literature has demonstrated extensive escape of Omicron from vaccine-induced humoral immunity. We compared the in vitro neutralization activity of sera obtained from vaccinated individuals against the SARS-CoV-2 Washington isolate (USA-WA1/2020), Omi-S, and Omicron. Sera collected within two months of the second dose of mRNA-1273 (Moderna mRNA vaccine; n = 12) or BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA vaccine; n = 12) vaccine were included. We performed a multicycle neutralization assay using a setting in which the virus and neutralizing sera were present at all times, mimicking the situation in a seropositive individual. All sera poorly neutralized Omicron, with 11.1-fold (range: 4.4- to 81.2-fold; p < 0.0001) lower half-maximal neutralizing dilution (ND₅₀) for Omicron compared with WA1. In fact, around 80% of samples failed to completely neutralize Omicron at the highest tested concentration.”

Role of spike in immune resistance of Omicron.

Fold-change in ND50 values is indicated. c,d,e,f, Schematic of the chimeric (top panels; c,d) and mutant (top panels; e,f) viruses. The amino acid numbering for WA1 mutants in e is based on the WA1 spike sequence, whereas the numbering for Omicron mutants in f is based on the Omicron spike sequence. Six of the 24 sera (three from Moderna and three from Pfizer) were tested. Each serum sample is represented by a dot of specific color. The data are plotted as fold-change of the parental virus. Statistical significance was determined using a two-tailed, unpaired t test with Welch’s correction. *p <0.05, **p <0.01, ***p <0.001, and ****p < 0.0001; ns, not significant.

According to the published study’s footnotes, this Gain of Function study was funded by Boston University, and taxpayer funded grants from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH)-National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Despite the taxpayer funding coming directly from NIH, the director of the Boston University lab straight-up lied to a reporter about the funding, saying they got no funding from the NIH! Perhaps it is semantics as the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is a department of the NIH: “It is a murky world, but in our view because the funding was not supporting the work that was supported in this paper, that it wasn’t necessary to report it to NIH.”-Ronald Corley

This YouTube discussion fails to mention that the study revealed that mRNA vaccines do not work, they just focus on Gain of Function:

Cold War to Ukraine Crisis: USAF sends 27 Block-25 Falcons to the Boneyard!

Video October 19, 2022 Hutchins AAron

“It’s a little surreal, to be honest with you. I can remember as a lieutenant growing up, flying with a lot of guys in F-4s and watching that historic change from F-4s to F-16s. And here I am, 20 years later, watching an F-16 I’ve flown be retired. I’ve gone full circle, and it’s bittersweet. But it’s an awesome opportunity to be the last commander to fly this jet.”-Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Eldredge, 309th Fighter Squadron

On 07SEP2022, the last of 27 F-16C ‘Block 25’ Falcons was flown from Luke Air Force Base, in Arizona, to The Boneyard. The retirement ceremony was held on 06SEP2022.

U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman David Busby, 07SEP2022.

The 309th Fighter Squadron (FS) ‘Wild Ducks’ had been flying Block 25 F-16C/Ds for 28 years. The 309th FS has an interesting history, going back to World War Two, in that it has been based at various locations around the world and around the United States, and repeatedly in-activated and re-activated. The last time it was in-activated was in 1993, after the non-official, non-declared Cold War ended, yet was re-activated the very next year, in 1994. It also experienced a period of being officially “unmanned”, from May 2014 to July 2014.

Pilots, ground crew and honorary members of the 309th FS signed their names to the last Block-25 F-16C.

The F-16 Falcon first flew in 1974, the first F-16’A’ in 1976, the first F-16’Cs’ began with production Block 25, in 1984. The first Block 42 Night Falcons appeared in 1988, so the 309th FS is still flying a Cold War era aircraft.

“How is it possible that we, the world, found out in December of 2019 that there is a CoViD… ….in China… On January the 11th [2020] the Chinese government released the DNA data, or a segment of it, to the public and three days later Pfizer already started a ‘test’ for this vaccine! How is that possible?…. In the case of Moderna… …they submit the trials since 2017! So I’m restating the question, how is it possible… they submitted tests of their vaccines years before the virus?”–Cristian-Vasile Terheș, Romania’s representative to the European Union parliament, 11OCT2022

Data published by the European Union’s (EU) EuroStat is implicating something is wrong with the Pandemic vaccines; high mortality rates seem to coincide with high vaccinations rates!

Cristian Terhes, an EU parliamentarian, posted a scathing video on YouTube. He was joined by five other EU parliament members (two from Germany, one each from Italy, France, Croatia) blasting the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Pfizer, Albert Bourla, for refusing to appear, to explain now revealed ‘secret contracts’ (which were massively redacted when released), and to explain why testing was not done when officially Pfizer promised testing was done. The EU video also reveals the correlation between high vaccinations rates and high death rates, and reveals that Moderna reps started testing for CoViD-19 in 2017:

In September 2022, during testimony before a Congressional committee, Anthony Stephen Fauci proudly held up a Reuters’ statement, claiming his statements had been ‘fact checked’ as true!

I’ve already revealed who the Facebook ‘fact checkers’ are (one of three fact checking services owned by a single privately funded liberal journalism university in Florida). Who are the fact checkers for Reuters?

A rebellious British Doctor (now working in the United States), Suneel Dhand, who has been questioning the Pandemic mandates from day one, investigated and found out the ‘fact checker’ for Reuters is an executive for Pfizer!

The Reuters ‘fact checker’ is Jim Smith, who was elected to the board of directors of Pfizer back in June, 2014. Not only is he an executive for Pfizer but he has been the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for Reuters since January, 2012! He is also a member of the globalist World Economic Forum, and all this information is readily available on Pfizer’s website! In a court of law, the fact that Jim Smith is top dog for a news media operation and that he is an executive for a pharmaceutical company, would disqualify him as a fact checker for conflict of interest!

Biden’s War: Indiana deploys for the never ending MFO!

On 17OCT2022, the Indiana Army National Guard conducted a ‘departure’ (deployment) ceremony for the 1st Squadron, 152nd Cavalry Regiment.

204 militia Soldiers, known as The Ghostrider Squadron, are deploying to the Sinai Peninsula (which joins North Africa to The Middle East/Southwest Asia) for the Egypt-Israeli Multinational Force and Observers Mission (aka MFO).

Indiana Army National Guard photo by Master Sergeant Brad Staggs, 17OCT2022.

According to the U.S. Army, since 2003 more than 35-thousand Army National Guard personnel have deployed for the U.S. MFO mission, in “an almost continuous Guard contribution.”

Indiana Army National Guard photo by Master Sergeant Brad Staggs, 17OCT2022.

The U.S. MFO mission has been in effect since 1981, as a result of the United Nations vetoing participation in the 1978 U.S. brokered Camp David Accords peace deal (which includes tens of Billions of U.S. tax dollars per year each for Israel and Egypt, for military assistance as well as economic assistance).

Indiana Army National Guard photo by Master Sergeant Brad Staggs, 17OCT2022.

In 2020, there were reports that U.S. President Donald Trump was going to end the MFO. Even before that, in 2002 then U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld wanted to end the MFO. The development of religious extremism has actually served to rationalize the continuance of the MFO (especially since Egypt reduced its own military presence on the Sinai), and has mutated the MFO mission.

As of 2011, Egypt and Israel together received $169-billion from U.S. taxpayers since 1979, more than any other country in the world! The U.S. MFO mission proves there is no such thing as peace without the taxpayers sending weapons and spending cash! And is there ever any actual peace in that region?

Retirements began in 2018 and are ongoing, as the new EC-37B is only now coming off the production line. Unfortunately, just like the EC-37B the British empire’s BAE System is also involved with the EC-130H (another Yankee taxpayer feather in the cap of the Red Coats). A total of 14 modified EC-130H served in the USAF.

First flight 1981, entered service 1982, costs $165-million each. By October 2021, the EC-130H Compass Call had been flying for 40 years. However, keep in mind that the first Compass Calls were modified C-130Hs that had already been flying for at least a decade (known as Baseline 1 aircraft)!

On 31AUG2021, yet another Compass Call was retired to the ‘Boneyard’ on Davis-Monthan Air Force Base (AFB), in Arizona. U.S. Air Force (USAF) video by Senior Airman Kaitlyn Ergish:

12JUN2019, the 43rd Electronic Combat Squadron (Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona) deployed to NATO Poland, for the first time in the Squadron’s history. Compass Call worked alongside fighter aircraft (in U.S. English the word aircraft is both singular and plural, do not add an ‘s’ at the end of the word aircraft) of the U.S. and Polish air forces.
