Just When You Thought It Couldn't Get Weirder...

I said in the Mitt Romney post that I would address Donald Trump within the NYMZA context. Well, I have looked more closely and recent information (recent for me, anyway) has spun my perception of this like a top. I'm going to just get straight to the point on this one.

If you have read my works, specifically Empire of the Wheel 2: Friends From Sonora and Origin: The Nineteenth Century Emergence of the 20th Century Breakaway Civilizations, you will know of my research and opinion on the mysterious Sonora Aero Club and NYMZA(NJMZa) and the breakaway subject in general. I have gone on the record as being firmly anti-NYMZA(NJMZa). I conclude that NYMZA(NJMZa) is aligned with collectivist globalism, something to which I am vehemently opposed. Readers of the above books will also know that I propose there exists a breakaway civilization founded by what I call the '1903' and that I think they can and do oppose NYMZA/NJMZa and its allies. The 1903, for those unfamiliar with my books, was a result of the dissolution of the Sonora Aero Club, a secretive group of German immigrants who opposed the growing imposition of NYMZA/NJMZa their oversight organization bent on military applications of the mysterious anitgravity technology the group was alleged to have developed -- in the 1850s. The leaders of the Sonora Aero Club quietly dissolved the group after the reported death of their chief, Peter Mennis, the man with the secret of the technology. But a mere few years later, an airship was proposed and demonstrated to Abraham Lincoln's representatives and was promptly forgotten. My readers already know that I do not think this was the case. Rather, I argue that the technology was developed after the Civil War in America's first 'black program'. That program led to the mystery airships of the 1890s, in my opinion, and ultimately the breakaway I call the '1903'.

And it is with the 1903 we find a connection to US politics today.

Where did I get '1903' for a moniker of this supposed breakaway civilization? From the legend that a mysterious group of financiers and investors backed the construction of a an airship that flew to Mars -- in the year 1903. You can read Origin for the details and refer to my sources as well, for the purpose at hand, I will continue with what is most pertinent to this article. Who designed and engineered this airship supposedly capable of flying to Mars in 1903?

Nikola Tesla. The world famous genius who came to the United States in the late 19th Century was known to have invented and designed many astounding things but also invented our present system of electrical power, alternating current. Much has been said of Tesla, some true, some not. Tesla died in January 1943 in Manhattan and within hours it is said someone entered his room and confiscated certain technical papers from a safe. During this period right after Tesla's death, it is a fact that federal agents also entered the room. These were agents of the Office of Alien Property ('alien' referring to non US person immigrants, not ETs), the Office of Naval Research and the FBI. Bureau documentation released on this issue indeed identifies the OAP as the organization that took custody of Tesla's papers and other property and also clearly states that FBI agents removed nothing from Tesla's room. These papers have long been a source of speculation easily as wild as those of mine that irritate my critics so joyously. There remain many questions about what exactly was taken and why, if true, these papers remain unseen by the public. What was in those papers? Who knows?

Might there have been something in the Tesla papers of special interest to the US intelligence establishment of the time? It was 1943 and the world was at war -- with Germany. Nazi Germany.
If you aren't familiar with the wonder weapons and other astounding things credited to Nazi Germany prior to and during the war, just Google it. The point is, the US intelligence establishment and the military were deeply concerned with what might be in those papers that Nazi agents operating in New York might find interesting. So specialists were brought in to review the Tesla papers.

What was their conclusion? That there was nothing of much value for defense and that Tesla was an old man whose last decade or so of life wasn't very productive in a practical sense. One analyst who reviewed the papers at the request of the FBI said that Tesla’s “thoughts and efforts during at least the past 15 years were primarily of a speculative, philosophical, and somewhat promotional character,” but “did not include new, sound, workable principles or methods for realizing such results.” And thus it was put to rest, as far as the FBI et al were concerned.

But was it really? Is it possible that there actually was something of vital import to the war effort and the FBI's special analyst went on record otherwise in cooperation with wartime national security directives? That is entirely possible. It might also be worthy of considering that said specialist could have been affiliated with an organization that preferred Tesla's papers be ignored or forgotten. Why? Maybe in those papers were proprietary technological secrets which the owners did not want known to the public or even exploited by the war effort. Maybe in those papers were Tesla's design schematics for the legendary Mars airship of 1903 -- and if that's the case, the party most interested in keeping Tesla's missing papers et al from public view would be the '1903' breakaway group, in my wildly speculative opinion.

Whose idea was it to suppress the contents of Tesla's papers? If the FBI, we can reasonably assume this served the war effort and national security. But what if the FBI reasonably accepted the conclusion of their specialist and let it go? In a scenario of suppression that was not on behalf of US national security we are left with an implication that the specialist might have been working on behalf of the 1903 group. The specialist might have discouraged US interest with an aim of averting development of the technology found in the papers. The specialist analyzing Tesla's papers may have kept the secrets of the breakaway civilization I call '1903' securely within the control of the group -- or perhaps said analyst merely withheld one secret: the Mars airship, the very project that I speculate might have motivated the very breaking away of the '1903' group in the first place. This would mean that the Allies could have benefited from Tesla technology yet not obtain the airship design. The '1903' group could have still let the Allies have secrets to turn the tide of the war without compromising their existence. It all rests on what the specialist who analyzed the papers actually shared with the FBI.

So who was that analyst?

John G Trump, the uncle of the current President Elect of the United States. A physicist and brilliant engineer affiliated for years with M.I.T., John Trump in 1943 had already been working on radar systems development for the war effort. John was the brother of Fred, the father of Donald Trump. But who could he possibly have been to the breakaway civilization I call the '1903'? What possibly could John Trump's connection to a breakaway civilization ever be?  (Photo left is John G Trump, courtesy Getty Images)

Recall whom I said the 1903 group emerged from. The Sonora Aero Club, the secretive group flying anti-gravity 'aeros' in California in the 1850s, according to the legend. That group of German immigrants who rejected the militaristic aims of their parent organization headquartered in Berlin, the NYMZA/NJMZa. The Sonora group included a member who designed these curious 'aeros', painted by Dellschau in 1920, of which I draw your attention to the names of the lower object in Graphic 1 and the objects in Graphic 2:


GRAPHIC 1

GRAPHIC 2

Multiple machines labeled TRUMP. Machines built by German immigrants who were very secretive and disappeared in America around 1860, never to be found again, we are told.

The man credited with these Aero Trumps was named Homer Trump.

Donald Trump was the son of Fred, himself the son of a German immigrant named Friedrich Trump who immigrated from Germany to the US in 1885. Is it possible that there was a Donald Trump relative in the Sonora Aero Club? There is nothing to say that Homer Trump was not a cousin of the Trump clan related to Donald Trump. Homer could have come to the US in the mid 19th Century and been a member of the Sonora Aero Club. Since the club members were reportedly so secretive, this would explain no traceable connection to Donald Trump's immediate family (so far!) if said Homer Trump had disappeared at the dissolution of the club. Naturally, I will engage in further wild ass speculation on this.

What if Homer Trump of the Sonora Aero Club was involved in the subsequent black project that I argue for in the post Civil War years (see my books for the details). By the time of the late 1890s airship mysteries, Friedrich Trump, Donald's grandfather, had been in the US for a decade. That makes it possible for Donald's grandfather to have met the aero club Trump or that man's offspring. All of this makes Donald's engineer Uncle John more interesting. More specifically, it makes Uncle John being selected by the FBI to review Tesla's secret papers all the more enticing. It all rests on BIG -- 'HUGE' -- IFs.

IF there was a Trump family connection to the Sonora Aero Club via Homer Trump, and IF the club's technology and even perhaps Homer and other former members were involved with my hypothetical black project that resulted in the 1890s mystery airship sightings, then that might suggest, as I have speculated elsewhere, that the legend of the 1903 Tesla airship to Mars might be true. Thus IF true, and IF, as stated above, the Trump relatives of Donald were acquainted with the aero club Trump, then it can be suggested that the breakaway 1903 group might have a stake in keeping Tesla's designs or references to them suppressed -- and therefore, John G Trump would be a likely agent of suppression. As the technical analyst of Tesla's secret papers on behalf of the FBI -- John Trump could also have been an agent of suppression for the 1903 breakaway group.

What might this mean to us today?

Anyone who runs for President of the United States is going to have powers that back them up, especially on the unseen level. I have argued in a previous post that NYMZA/NJMZa had a stake in stopping Donald Trump and possibly exercised it through Mitt Romney's 'Never Trump' campaign. IF the NYMZA/NJMZa is so opposed to Donald Trump, who could possibly have opposed them and stand a chance of winning?

The 1903 Group.

Therefore, I propose yet another wild ass speculation of insane proportions that the NYMZA/NJMZa Never Trump cabal, the Republican Establishment (greatly represented by the Bush clan), and the Clinton political machine were all foiled by the silent backing of the breakaway civilization '1903' for Donald Trump, President-Elect of the United States.

One last thing. Look closely at the graphics above with the Trump aeros. They are numbered in a series. The series is '4500'. Donald Trump is going to be the 45th President.

What the hell, you might ask?

Exactly.

More to follow, to be sure...

A Brief History of the First Russo-American Cyberwar

Posted by George Freund on December 15, 2016

How Obama lost — and Putin won

by BRIAN FRYDENBORG

It is fitting that, on the 75th anniversary of Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor, I’m writing about an attack that has been far worse in its overall effects on America than Pearl Harbor was.

If Dec. 7, 1941 is a date which will live in infamy, then 2016 is a year which will live in infamy.

All things being equal in an election that was decided by, at current count, fewer than 38,600 votes spread across three states, it’s pretty certain that without Russia’s political cyberwarfare offensive in the First Russo-American Cyberwar — and Pres. Barack Obama’s stunning lack of response — Hillary Clinton would now be the U.S. president-elect.

I’m a liberal Democrat who proudly voted twice for Obama, but I will make clear what no one seems to want to, although it pains me. I tried making excuses before and after the campaign — Obama thought Clinton would win anyway, he wanted to play it safe, maybe he has something secret in store, etc. — but I thought more about, the truth became clear.

Obama failed miserably in his role as commander-in-chief, protector and defender of the United Sates of America in the final months of his eight-year presidency. In doing so, he ensured the destruction of his own legacy along with the American political system as we know it and the U.S.-led international system that has been a bulwark of great-power peace since World War II.

Here is the story of how Obama lost the war.

This is hardly a war. Spies have been reading mail and diplomatic cables for as long as there has been mail and diplomatic cables. The U.S. has used manipulation and outright military force to fix election. They have assassinated leaders and made attempts on others. It's the American way. In South and Central America tens of thousands or more likely hundreds of thousands have been killed in these operations never mind the untold imprisoned and tortured. So for Obama to plead piousness is an insult to history. I'm sure the Russian files have been 'sexed' up as they used to say in the Tony Blair days. The intelligence agencies have no credibility as a moral high road because they have absolutely no morals. Ehat matters about the E-Mails is the content not the manner that they were made public. Many generations ago the British Supreme Court ruled that evidence still remains evidence if you steal it even. The theft of it is another matter. We have evidence. It proves by their own hand that they are traitors, sex offenders and killers and thieves. In a more perfect world we'd be thanking the Russians for revealing the evil in our midst and become the best of friends. 

JAPAN AND RUSSIA ISSUE JOINT STATEMENT ABOUT KURILES AFTER ONSEN ...

  https://gizadeathstar.com/2016/12/japan-russia-issue-joint-statement-kuriles-onsen-summit-mr-abe-mr-putin/

Last Thursday in my News and Views from the Nefarium I talked about the Onsen summit in Japan between Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin. As I put it then, one should not expect many breakthroughs from the summit on the issue of the Kuril islands, those northern islands seized from Japan by the Soviet Union at the end of World War Two. Neither nation has, since then, been willing to renounce those claims. Instead, I suggested that one has to look forward to a long process of negotiations on a whole host of issues. But the central geopolitical issue is, Russia needs Japanese financing and expertise to develop Siberian infrastructure, and as a counter-balance to growing Chinese influence in the region, and Japan needs a close, and secure, supply of energy that cannot be interdicted by China.

This geopolitical convergence, I've been arguing, is a much stronger gravitational pull than anything else keeping the two Asia powerhouses apart, including American pressure on Japan, and including the stormy relationships between the two countries that began in the Russo-Japanese war, when Japanese land and naval forces easily and handily defeated the Tsar, and seized several key Russian outposts in the far East, including Port Arthur. Back then, both powers sought a "neutral negotiating power" to conclude a peace, which was Teddy Roosevelt's USA. Notably, neither power is now paying all that much attention to the USA, although Mr. Abe's government carefully avoided giving the impression that Mr. Putin's visit was a state visit, for he did not meet with Emperor Akihito.

However, I think we can safely chalk up my prediction of "no breakthroughs" at the summit in the "big miss" column. Here's why:

Putin, Abe agree on joint Russia-Japan activities on Kuril Islands

Putin: Kuril Islands may become unifying element, help Moscow & Tokyo finally sign peace treaty

There's much to ponder in these articles, and I think it is safe to say that the two nations may have found not only a way around the Kurils issue, but also, in arriving at a unique solution, perhaps have established a template for further long-term action. In short, I think it's safe to say that what we may have just witnessed is a quiet breakthrough, but one whose implications will continue to affect regional geopolitics for years if not decades to come.

First, note what the first article states about the Kurils issue:

Putin and Abe had to discuss the issue one-on-one after Russian and Japanese experts failed to agree on the wording of the statement, he added.

According to Ushakov, the statement on joint Russian-Japanese economic activities in the South Kuril Islands, which may concern fisheries, tourism, culture and medicine, will be published tomorrow.

Abe told reporters the leaders “thoroughly and frankly discussed the issues of free access to their homeland by former residents of the islands, joint economic activities between the two countries with a special economic zone on the islands, as well as the issue of a peace treaty."

Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov later stressed that the Japanese side had no objections to working in the framework of Russian law in the Kurils.

In other words, the rumors that we've heard about precisely such a solution to the problem, first aired by Russian and Japanese diplomats some months ago, appears to have been given some sort of formal consent by the two leaders. Note that under the terms of this putative agreement, Russia retains sovereignty, and hence, Japanese living, or doing business there, will operate under Russian, rather than Japanese law. In return, a "special economic zone" will be created, including free access of Japanese to the islands. What this means, I suspect, is that the Kurils are being viewed by both powers as the base of operations for future Japanese participation in Siberian infrastructure development. As such, we may expect that this "special economic zone" may include a lessening or complete lifting of tariffs between the two countries in the Kurils itself, for the flow of goods, services, and finance. Watch for future agreements working out the details of this arrangement. What intrigues here is that neither leader, apparently, ever raised the issue of sovereignty over the Kurils, but rather, cut right to the chase about the potentials for long term Russo-Japanese cooperation.  And lest the obvious be missed, this is also an indicator of increasing American weakness, or at least, of the perception of increasing American weakness, particularly by The Empire of Japan.

Mr. Putin seems to reinforce these speculations with his own statements, as recorded in the second article:

Russia's Kuril Islands, long disputed by Japan, may become a unifying element, Russian President Vladimir Putin said during his visit to Japan, noting that joint economic activities there could help the two countries finally agree on a peace treaty.

“If we take the right steps in the direction of the plan proposed by the Prime Minister [Abe], and he proposed creating a separate structure regulating economic activities on the islands, striking a legal intergovernmental agreement [and] working out a mechanism for interaction, [we can], on this basis, generate the conditions that would allow us to finally solve the problem of the peace treaty,” Putin told the news conference following talks with Japan’s prime minister on Friday.

“These islands, instead of a bone of contention between Russia and Japan, can, on the contrary, become something uniting [the two countries],” the Russian leader said.

The "long term template" idea appears to be in the thinking both of Mr. Abe, and Mr. Putin. The Kurils, in short, and far from being a stumbling block, are being made a test bed for wider and longer term arrangements. And geopolitically, it is difficult to conceive how China or the USA will be able to inject themselves into the process. It is under these conditions and considerations that I suspect we've witness a breakthrough.

But there is much more than economic cooperation going on here. There are also now on the table bi-lateral defense talks under way on mutual security concerns between the two countries (citing the first article again):

Putin and Abe also agreed to restore military cooperation between the two countries as well as ties in the spheres “frozen” in recent years, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Thursday.

It was agreed to resume “2+2” ministerial talks, which would involve meetings between foreign ministers and defense ministers of both nations, he explained.

According to Lavrov, the Japanese side has become more aware of Russia’s worries over US global missile defense system and its increased presence in the Asia-Pacific region, which Moscow views as “inadequate to the threat posed by North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs.”

“We have an impression that our Japanese colleagues now understand better Russia's concerns in this matter,” Lavrov said, adding that Russia and Japan had confirmed mutual interest in cooperation on security issues, despite what he called “special relations” between Tokyo and Washington.

In other words, in spite of the "special relationship" between Japan and the USA, which Russia acknowledges, Japan and Russia are proceeding with bi-lateral talks between their respective foreign and defense ministers.  What these talks are about are easy to guess: China, and, as the article itself suggests, North Korea, which curiously, the article states that the American presence is "inadequate to the threat posed by North Korea's nuclear and missile programs." In other words, Moscow is blaming not Tokyo, or Beijing for the North Korea problem, but Washington, and apparently, the Japanese were able to see Russia's point. This, in itself, is another earthquake, for it is suggesting that North Korea is being propped up covertly by Washington as an agent provocateur to create instability in the region in order to justify the continue American military presence in the region. This is admittedly a wild speculation, but there have been stories and rumors to that effect over the years on the internet. In any case, that Russia would phrase things in this unusual manner, and that Japan would apparently be willing to listen and consider this strange viewpoint, speaks volumes.

In any case, Mr. Abe also seems to be viewing the Kuril "economic zone" issue as a stepping stone to an eventual formal peace treaty between the two nations according to the second article:

Prime Minister Abe, who has repeatedly pledged to resolve the decades-old conflict, also expressed confidence that a special economic regime for the disputed Kuril Islands would help resolve the peace treaty problem.

“We’ve agreed with the Russian president to create a special economic regime for conducting special business activities on [the disputed] islands,” he said at the joint press-conference on Friday, adding that “the special economic regime will be aimed at providing a background for resolving the [peace treaty] problem, [it] will be a very important step for solving the peace treaty issue in the future.”

Abe also noted that Moscow and Tokyo are set to begin immediate negotiations on granting Japanese citizens free access to the graves of their relatives on the islands.

“We agreed that former residents could freely visit the places where they had previously lived and buried their ancestors. We agreed, on humanitarian grounds, to immediately begin negotiations on how to provide this access. This way, we can, at least in part, meet the wishes of the former inhabitants of the islands,” Abe said. Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov stressed earlier that the Japanese side had no objections to working on the Kurils within the framework of Russian law.

The bottom line here is that Japan and Russia just set off a geopolitical earthquake, in my opinion, one with long term implications for the region. As we watch the details of these agreements being worked out over the coming years, I suspect that we will see a fundamental realignment of power and particularly a wide-ranging sphere of cooperation between the two countries on economic and military affairs. & ....

TIDBIT: AND WHILE WE’RE TALKING ABOUT RUSSIA…

https://gizadeathstar.com/2016/12/tidbit-talking-russia/

...let's talk about the in my opinion largely fake "Russia hacked the US elections" meme being reported in the corporate, controlled propaganda organs right now:

We've all heard the story about Russia supposedly hacking the American elections. Well, I for one haven't seen much evidence forthcoming for that claim, nor do I see what benefit Russia would gain from engaging in such risky activity, but it is interesting that James Comey, the Director of the FBI, has been apparently in touch with President-elect Trump assuring him that Russia did not do any such thing:

Home | Newsfront Tags: 2016 Elections | Donald Trump | Hillary Clinton | Russia | comey | fbi | russia Ed Klein: Comey Tells Trump Russians Didn't Influence the Election

Even geopolitically, I think the principle of "innocent until proven guilty" should hold true...

VACCINE-AUTISM STUDY “DEPUBLISHED”

https://gizadeathstar.com/2016/12/vaccine-autism-study-depublished/

The news this past few days hasn't been all geopolitical. If you've been following the increasingly controversial issue of the relationship between vaccination and autism over the years, an important story emerged on Dec. 5 that once again demonstrates the utter uselessness of corporate controlled media and the dangers of big pharma. This article was shared by Mr. V.T.:

Study Proving Vaccines Cause Autism Banned From Internet

The abstract of this study demonstrating a relationship between the cocktails of vaccinations now given to young children, and autism, says it all:

Results: A total of 415 mothers provided data on 666 children, of which 261 (39%) were unvaccinated. Vaccinated children were significantly less likely than the unvaccinated to have been diagnosed with chickenpox and pertussis, but significantly more likely to have been diagnosed with pneumonia, otitis media, allergies and NDDs(defined as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and/or a learning disability). After adjustment, the factors that remained significantly associated with NDD were vacvcination… male gender… and preterm birth. In a final adjusted model, vcaccination but not preterm birth remained associated with HDD, while the interaction of preterm birt and vaccination was associated with a 6.6-fold increased odds of NDD….

Conclusions: In this study based on mothers’ reports, the vaccinated had a higher rate of allergies and NDD than the unvaccinated. Vaccination, but not preterm birth, remained significantly associated with NDD after controlling for other factors. However, preterm birth combined with vaccination was associated with an apparent synergistic increase in the odds of NDD.

The article adds that this study was peer-reviewed:

The paper was peer-reviewed by Linda Mullin Elkins, a chiropractor at Life University, and Kelly Hsieh from the University of Illinois at Chicago. It was edited by Amit Agrawal at Gandhi Medical College in India.

 There was the usual backlash about shoddy methodology and "fake science":

The initial backlash was significant. Public comments included, “this study is of poor design, though not impossible results. Study relies of self-report of moms, inducing bias,” and threats of commercial sabotage, “Another garbage vaccine study in Frontiers journal. Scientists, stop reviewing/publishing there.”

Science Blogs also weighed in to discredit the results of the study, quickly posted an article titled, “Antivaccinationists promote a bogus internet “survey.” Hilarity ensues as it’s retracted.”

This was followed by scrubbing the paper from the internet, but not before a screen shot of the abstract - which appears in the article - was saved:

Not only has the first study into vaccinated versus unvaccinated children been unpublished by Frontiers In Public Health, but a cached version available on internet archives has also been removed, suggesting there is a serious campaign to stop members of the public from viewing the study. However a screenshot of the abstract was saved before it was scrubbed from the internet.

What is amazing to me here is the duplicitous nature of "big medicine" itself. Doctors rely on a day-to-day basis of the reports of their clients, or their clients' parents, on the nature of symptoms, and through careful question and answer, arrive at diagnoses. In other words, in the daily practice of medicine, doctors rely on the anecdotal testimony of their patients. Most patients won't walk into their doctors' offices and relate that they need an x-ray because they suspect they have a crack in their right femur that is causing them pain, or announce that their headaches are due to the beginnings of a glioblastoma multiform. But they will relay information of an informal nature, and that informal nature of the information is not dismissed simply because it is relayed by a "non-professional" without medical credentials or peer review.

But "big medicine" and "big pharma" would have us believe that when several such stories are relayed - by mothers whose children were vaccinated and who ended up on the autism spectrum - that this is merely anecdotal and of no evidentiary value at all. Merely to collect and publish such information is now apparently "fake science" and to be "scrubbed" from people's ability to scrutinze and evaluate the evidence from themselves, thus removing one key component- the patient him- or herself - from the entire process, making 'big medicine's" own pronouncements rather moot.

There's another criticism that can be leveled here as well, for big medicine and big pharma, by so brazenly scrubbing such reports, open themselves and their own studies to the criticism of a "conflict of interest." The fact that this study was initially peer-reviewed and then subsequently withdrawn speaks volumes about that conflict of interest. When the peers of ultimate censure are the big corporations and their controlled media, then actual free flow of ideas is stopped, and with it, all science and all medicine. What has happened here is that big pharma and big medicine have gone in front of families struggling to care for autistic children, as if they were all gathered in a room together to share their experience and stories, and told them there's no relationship between their vaccines and their suffering children, "and we don't care what you think to the contrary."

That's how brazen - and illogical and irrational - they have become. (The greed was always there.)

We'll see how long that story lasts when the first class action suits start to hit them, and juries, rather than bought-and-paid for "science" in journals, have to decide the question.
