‘SHOEBOX’ AND THE International Harvester COE

Just to remind people that Pfizer’s own ‘scientific’ documents revealed that the DNA they use for their mass-production of mRNA Corona-virus vaccines comes from the inflammation causing endotoxin Escherichia coli (E.coli), you know, that common bacteria that seems to cause constant food recalls: 18SEP2023, Wisconsin ground beef being recalled from three states due to possible E.coli contamination.
30AUG2023, USDA issues recall due to possible E.coli in Texas beef.
Pfizer used two different production ‘processes’ when making their mRNA vaccines. Process 1 was used for the trials vaccines, and involved synthesizing the mRNA. However, that process could not support mass-production, so they created Process 2 which involves ‘brewing’ in plasmid vats the DNA of E.coli (because it is more efficient and therefore cost effective):
But wait, the governments who ‘mandated’ that their citizens take this E.coli containing mRNA vaccine knew it had E.coli in it because the E.coli plasmid process had been reported as early as October 2020! However, it was known as far back as 2011 that there was a connection between E.coli and mRNA!
Science, 25FEB2011: Translation-Independent Localization of mRNA in E. coli
BIA Separations, October 2020: High yield mRNA production process from E.Coli to highly pure mRNA. “A new purification approach starting from E.Coli all through to mRNA production is presented here. This new approach integrates a pDNA linearisation step before polishing of plasmid DNA.”
News-Medical, 19MAR2021: Developing a COVID-19 vaccine using inactivated E. coli
National Library of Medicine, published online 20APR2021: Production in Escherichia coli of recombinant COVID-19 spike protein fragments fused to CRM197
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News, 12JUL2023: Expanding mRNA Manufacturing Techniques “The costs of using E. coli are an order of magnitude cheaper than IVT and the downstream processing of the mRNA product is not too complicated, notes Brown, adding that the original problem with using E. coli was it just chewed up mammalian mRNA…”

Health/fitness trackers have been in use since the 1980s, but the latest U.S. Army version takes ‘health tracking’ to a new level: “The HRAPS is a fantastic tool to help tactical commanders and frontline health care providers make critical decisions about Warfighters’ health and performance during both training and real-world operations. It is designed to help small-unit leaders and frontline medics identify possible health concerns before they become critical. It gives a snapshot of critical health and performance data about once a minute, so leaders can know their Soldiers’ location and vital signs at all times whenever the device is transmitting data.”-Emily Krohn, U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity-HRAPS program

During this year’s U.S. Army overall Best Squad Competition (2nd annual) a new device was tested, in the name of health. It is called HRAPS, Health Readiness and Performance System.
The HRAPS has a lightweight transmitter, about the size and shape of an earbud, that attaches to your chest. The HRAPS has been in development since 2018.
Your ‘bosses’ (officials, health providers, etc) get portable, handheld devices that display your health data, and location, in real time.

Packaged HRAPS waiting to be tested in a CBRN environment, during Exercise Scarlet Response in Perry, Georgia, 19JUL2023. U.S. Army photo by Cameron E. Parks.
The U.S. Department of Defense is using the excuse of supposed ‘failures’ of medevac during the Iraq and Afghanistan occupations, and the expected coming Near Peer War, to justify HRAPS: “Because of the forecasted future nature of combat, it will be imperative to have modern, user-friendly, rugged, and expeditionary tools like HRAPS to help frontline commanders in the Joint Forces make more informed decisions. The reality is that medevac capabilities found during previous operations, like in Iraq and Afghanistan, will be stretched very thin due to the possible operating environments of the future, where small teams will deploy far from higher echelon care facilities in austere, remote locations. It will be a critical advantage to have tools like HRAPS that will help provide advanced warning for health concerns that can point to deeper issues before they become emergencies. Having real-time health information for the Warfighters on the frontlines will help inform field medical care and maximize the effectiveness of available resources.”-Emily Krohn, U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity-HRAPS program

Of course, this new device is being touted as a tool only for saving your life: “During emergency situations while treating injuries and casualties, every minute counts, and having a baseline of physiological data tracked over a period of time would help inform decision making while treating Soldiers in the field. We know that the effects of injuries compound over time, so being able to identify vital sign anomalies before they present in a patient is important to helping prevent possible complications with the onset of symptoms. If abnormalities do appear, we will be able to treat them early in the continuum, which would help mitigate injuries before they begin to escalate, and help providers apply a more holistic approach to casualty treatment, leading to better overall outcomes.”-Staff Sergeant Jesse Hylton, Best Squad competitor who is testing HRAPS

The Republic of Bulgaria is now a member of NATO, during the non-declared Cold War (1947-1991) the People’s Republic of Bulgaria was a member of the Warsaw Pact. Warsaw Pact Bulgaria first received the MiG-29 during the last years of the Cold War, starting in 1989. Bulgaria joined NATO in 2004.

In 2019, NATO-Bulgaria paid Lockheed Martin, in full, for eight U.S. made F-16 Falcons, however, on 17MAY2023, BulgarianMilitary.com reported that the United States government/Department of Defense canceled any additional F-16 purchases and told Bulgaria to continue using the MiG-29!
On 11AUG2023, The Sofia Globe reported that NATO-Bulgaria is paying NATO-Poland 9.5-million Euros to rebuild six MiG-29s!

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).
During the Cold War it was known as Mikoyan & Gurevich (Микоян и Гуревич), hence MiG (МиГ). The MiG-29 began military service in 1983. NATO reporting name Fulcrum.

From 1983 to 1985 the MiG-29 was kept out of public sight, then the leadership of the Soviet Union changed, adopting a concept called Glasnost which resulted in public demonstrations of the MiG-29 all over the world.
In 1989, the Soviet Union was trying so hard to be ‘open’ that they sent one of their new MiG-29s to an airshow in NATO-Canada.

In the late 1980s, MiG developed a ‘K’ navalized version of the MiG-29 (first flight 23JUL1988), but there were no takers. In 2004, India decided they wanted the MiG-29K for their small aircraft carrier fleet. The training version MiG-29KUB first flew in 2007. The KUB version can also act as an electronic warfare aircraft.
Apparently, the fact that India liked the MiG-29K influenced the Russian Military Maritime Fleet to buy their own MiG-29Ks in 2009.
In 2011, California Air National Guard F-16s flew to Ukraine to take part in wargame Safe Skies. This video, by Senior Master Sergeant Christopher Drudge, shows a Ukrainian MiG-29UB taxiing past the California F-16s:
In 2016, UAC-Mikoyan introduced a new ‘MiG-29’ called the MiG-35 (which looks a lot like the navalized MiG-29K). NATO calls it the Fulcrum-F.

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).
NATO reporting name Hip. The Михаил Мил Ми-8 (Mikhail Mil Mi-8) rotary wing began military service in 1968, with the Soviet Union. First production was done in the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic. The Mi-17 Hip has more powerful turbines than the Mi-8 Hip, also, the position of the tail rotor is different.
The Mi-8 is also used by silly-vilian (civilian) transport companies. I have several Western/NATO publications from the 1970s that speculate that the Mi-8 started military service prior to 1967. The earliest photos I’ve found of the Hip are from the early 1970s.

“In September 2008, building on the experience of over a decade of working together, the Secretaries General of both NATO and the United Nations (UN) agreed to establish a framework for expanded consultation and cooperation….
The UN is frequently invited to attend NATO ministerial meetings and summits; the NATO Secretary General participates in the UN General Assembly; and staff level meetings, covering the broad range of cooperation and dialogue, take place on an annual basis between the secretariats of NATO and the UN.”–Relations with the United Nations, NATO, 25JUL2023
On 19SEP2023, the taxpayer funded North Atlantic Treaty Organization released a promotional video boasting that both NATO and the United Nations were created after the Second World War to impose the Western elites’ version of ‘peace & security’:
At the July 2023 Vilnius Summit, NATO issued a detailed statement revealing that after 1992 (the end of the Cold War/fall of the Soviet Union) the Balkans Wars were used to justify the expansion of NATO and integration into UN ‘peacekeeping’/globalist operations. The title of the NATO statement is Relations with the United Nations, read it for yourself (and notice they use British empire English grammar and spelling, they do not use U.S. English).
