On COI #146, Kyle and Will break down Twitter’s latest attempt to root out what it calls ‘misinformation,’ with the platform announcing a new partnership with Reuters and the Associated Press to ‘fact check’ information on the site. The two newswires are among the most respectable in western media, but have poor track records reporting on certain issues and a tendency to uncritically repeat the empire’s narratives and framing.
A major offensive by the Taliban has seen the militant group capture five provincial capitals over the last week, including Kunduz city, while Taliban fighters continue to threaten Lashkar Gah, Kandahar and even Kabul, where they’ve launched several bombings and assassinations in recent days. As Afghan government forces fold under the assault, US officials are warning of a stepped-up bombing campaign to keep the group out of important cities.
New York City has become the first in the US to adopt a full-blown vaccine passport. Mayor Bill de Blasio says the new pass will come into force in mid-September, and that the government will inspect businesses to ensure compliance. The program may be a sign of things to come for the rest of the country, as cities, counties and states across the US reimpose mask mandates and other pandemic restrictions due to hype around the Covid-19 “Delta variant.”

The Poppy feilds should be burned next and the global supply of opium will be destroyed soon to pre 9/11 levels, and that is a great thing!
August 11, 2021 Taliban Takes Control of Two-thirds of Afghan Territory
Violence continues to escalate in Afghanistan. As experts predicted, the Taliban launched a brutal offensive against government forces, achieving full control of 65% of the entire national territory. The situation is extremely dangerous for the central government, as the state does not have strength enough to combat the threat, while international support seems increasingly distant.

The destruction of the poppy fields would be an economic tragedy for Afghanistan and would reduce the quality, but wouldn’t put more than a minor and temporary dent in the global supply, of opium.
Another lost war by the World’s most active Meddler and War Monger, the USA…
Makes me wonder if the so called withdrawal is/was just an excuse to get the troops out of harms way because we were about to start a bombing campaign.
Speaking of the virus, we’ve put all our eggs in the vaccine basket and reject a possible alternative. When we treat symptoms with over the counter pain killers and fever reducers people still have the virus but think they are over it because their symptoms are temporarily reduced so out they go spreading the virus around. Also their immune systems are compromised because the fever and the pain is all part of your body’s natural immunity trying to save your life but your system is getting false signals because of the medications. So the virus just keeps multiplying and gets into you lungs and bingo its curtains. Stop with the medications, take a hot bath and get into a warm bed, it works with the flu. If it gets deep in your lungs better go to the hospital.
