The Unbearable Lightness of China
By Pepe Escobar, April 27, 2020
As
Mahbubani carefully explains, “while Chinese leaders want to rejuvenate
Chinese civilization, they have no missionary impulse to take over the
world and make everyone Chinese.” And still, “America convinced itself
that China has become an existential threat.” The best and the brightest
across Asia, Mahbubani included, never cease to be amazed at the
American system’s total inability to “make strategic adjustments to this
new phase in history.” Mahbubani dedicates a whole chapter – “Can
America make U-turns?” – to the quandary.
The Dengvaxia Disaster Was Twenty Years in the Making—What Will Happen with a Rushed COVID-19 Vaccine?
By Children’s Health Defense, April 27, 2020
For
several weeks, Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates have been beating the
drum about a
COVID-19 vaccine, seeking to keep the world’s coronavirus
optics focused on a medical intervention that Gates acknowledges to be
risky enough to require indemnification against lawsuits. The two are
casting a COVID-19 vaccine—which they speculate could be ready in as
little as 18 months—as the passport for a return to “normalcy.” The two
opinion leaders’ gambit seems to be backfiring among people savvy enough
to understand that Fauci’s and Gates’ organizations, pocketbooks and
agendas are driving the rush for an indemnified vaccine. Other Americans
may be too distracted by the historically unprecedented lockdown,
however, to think through the safety issues raised by a potential
COVID-19 vaccine.Saudi Arabia: What Happens When the Oil Stops
By David Hearst, April 27, 2020
Saudi
Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) can no longer plead
youth or inexperience. That time has passed. What you see is what you
get. The misrule, blunders and war associated with him as crown prince
will only continue with him as king. The full repertoire of the crown
prince’s statecraft was on display in a stormy telephone call he made to
Russian President Vladimir Putin on the eve of an Opec meeting last
month which ended in a calamitous price war between Saudi Arabia and
Russia.
As Food Banks Struggle to Cope with Demand, Desperate Farmers Dump Unsellable Produce
By Alan MacLeod, April 27, 2020
In
San Antonio, over 10,000 people lined up overnight in their vehicles in
the hope of receiving a box of basic foods. “Needs have skyrocketed not
just here but around the country,” one Washington, D.C. organizer told MintPress last
week. Meanwhile, a veteran Louisiana food bank employee said the
current situation is graver than it was after Hurricane Katrina. Food
banks are going millions of dollars over budget trying to keep up with
surging demand; one estimate suggests that one in three people seeking
groceries at pantries last month had never done so before. Those who
manage the facilities are worried that they will soon be completely
drained of food.
The Digital Revolution: Unlimited Ability to Spy and Control Populations. The Creation of a Police State Dystopia
By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, April 26, 2020
The
digital revolution provides government and corporations with unlimited
and unaccountable ability to spy and control populations. Every word,
deed, and movement of people can be tracked and a “social credit”
dossier built for them. China already has such a control system in
place. Those whose profiles are outside acceptable parameters are
unable to function in normal society, being blocked from passports,
driving licenses, employment, and activities reserved to those with
acceptable social credit scores.
The Gates Foundation and the “War on Cash”: ‘Financial Inclusion’ in an Age of Neoliberalism
By Colin Todhunter, April 26, 2020
When
we look beyond the mainstream narrative to gain an understanding of the
current crisis, it doesn’t take long before the name of Bill Gates and
his foundation appears. And this is no coincidence seeing that he has
placed himself firmly in the limelight on prime time TV shows offering
his opinion on COVID-19 and what he thinks should be done. He has
mentioned the need for maintaining some form of lockdown until a vaccine
is discovered.
Predictions: What Will Happen Next in the Corona Crisis?
By James Corbett, April 26, 2020
There
is a second wave of Covid-19 coming in the next few months. We don’t
have to speculate about this. Not only have we heard this from all
manner of politicians and health “authorities” over the past few months,
but it was an integral part of MIT Technology Review’s now-infamous
“We’re not going back to normal” article, which revealed how the waves
of lockdown and release were going to restructure our lives and
condition us into the Corona World Order. And, lest there be any doubt
that this is an important part of the plandemic narrative, Bill Gates
just reaffirmed it in his latest “GatesNotes” on “The first modern
pandemic.”
