Brazilian Police Kill Two Dozen In Deadliest Favela Raid In Rio’s History

3 years ago

More than 100 heavily armed Brazilian police officers stormed a sprawling Rio de Janeiro favela (a shanty town or slum) Thursday and killed at least two dozen people, a raid that human rights activists, researchers, and journalists described as the deadliest such police atrocity in the city’s history. The hours-long operation, purportedly aimed at drug traffickers in the poverty-stricken Jacarezinho favela, ultimately left at least 25 people dead, including one police officer. Horrific video footage and images posted to social media in the wake of the raid—which was carried out despite a court order against such incursions during … Read More

Swedish Study: Cervical Cancer Increases Since HPV Vaccines

6 years ago

It seems there are more “correlation and causation” effects from vaccines, especially with the much-touted ‘cervical cancer prevention’ vaccines known as Gardasil®, Gardasil 9® and Cervarix® – the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines manufactured by Merck & Company and GlaxoSmithKline, respectively! These vaccines are loaded with aluminum adjuvants. Gardasil® Each 0.5-mL dose of the vaccine contains approximately 225 mcg of aluminum (as Amorphous Aluminum Hydroxyphosphate Sulfate adjuvant), 9.56 mg of sodium chloride, 0.78 mg of L-histidine, 50 mcg of polysorbate 80, 35 mcg of sodium borate, <7 mcg yeast … Read More

Medical Publication: Graphene Bow-Tie Nanoantenna for Wireless Communications in the Terahertz Band

10 years ago

Abstract: The interconnection of nanoscale devices (i.e., nanonodes) within a nanonetwork with existing communication networks, as well as the Internet, defines a new networking paradigm, namely the Internet of Nano-Things. Within this context, the definition of a nanonode requires specific features, especially for what concerns novel nanomaterial and components. Graphene-enabled wireless communications is emerging as a novel paradigm, which has been proposed to implement wireless communications among nanosystems. Indeed, graphene-based plasmonic nanoantennas, namely graphennas, are just a few micrometers in size, and are accordingly tuned to radiate electromagnetic … Read More

Selwyn Duke: “The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.” (Often incorrectly attributed to George Orwell)

15 years ago

We already know that dead people can vote, but here’s a new one for you: they can plagiarize, too. A few years ago, I read a “George Orwell” quotation that had begun to gain some currency: “The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.” The problem is, Orwell never said it. And I ought to know. Because I said it. (Or, to be precise, I wrote it.) I originated the saying – and it’s safe to aver that it has achieved saying … Read More

Hindenburg Disaster: The German Zeppelin Burst into Flames while Docking at Lakehurst, NJ. Was this a False Flag Intended to Provoke War?

87 years ago

On May 6, 1937 the German zeppelin Hindenburg burst into flames while docking at Lakehurst, New Jersey. The spectacular disaster brought an end to the airship era. In March 2013, major news outlets reported that the calamity’s “true” cause had been identified. “The explosion that destroyed the Hindenburg was caused by static electricity,” said Reuters, based on a British documentary by TV host Jem Stansfield, who reached his conclusion by blowing up three model hydrogen airships. Stansfield’s hypothesis fell short of excitement, however, since it was only a … Read More
