In 1951, Solomon Asch conducted his first conformity laboratory experiments at Swarthmore College, laying the foundation for his remaining conformity studies. The experiment was published on two occasions.[1][11]
Results
In the control group, with no pressure to conform to actors, the error rate on the critical stimuli was less than 1%.[1]
In the actor condition also, the majority of participants’ responses remained correct (63.2%), but a sizable minority of responses conformed to the actors’ (incorrect) answer (36.8 percent). The responses revealed strong individual differences: Only 5 percent of participants were always swayed by the crowd. 25 percent of the sample consistently defied majority opinion, with the rest conforming on some trials. An examination of all critical trials in the experimental group revealed that one-third of all responses were incorrect. These incorrect responses often matched the incorrect response of the majority group (i.e., actors). Overall, 75% of participants gave at least one incorrect answer out of the 12 critical trials.[1] In his opinion regarding the study results, Asch put it this way: “That intelligent, well-meaning, young people are willing to call white black is a matter of concern.”

The government and their filthy apparatchiks fully understand that most people will conform to the group, especially young people!
The scary part about the above study is that 75% of the population ARE conformists! I never understood how Hitler came to power. I do now.
Due to an influx of emails and comments, we felt the need to recap why we believe SARS-COV-2 has yet to be proven to exist. Firstly one has to discuss what process virologists use in the discovery of a new virus.
Virologists must know that the common definition of isolation and purification are virtually identical. For example, according to the Oxford English Dictionary:
One can argue about subtleties, but if you took some ore and isolated gold, it would be the same as purifying gold. But with viruses, virologists have thoroughly debased the word “isolation” while rarely using the word “purification”.
Since 1954, virologists have taken unpurified samples from a relatively few people, often less than ten, with a similar disease. They then minimally process this sample and inoculate this unpurified sample onto tissue culture containing usually four to six other types of material — all of which contain identical genetic material as to what is called a “virus.” The tissue culture is starved and poisoned and naturally disintegrates into many types of particles, some of which contain genetic material. Against all common sense, logic, use of the English language and scientific integrity, this process is called “virus isolation.” This brew containing fragments of genetic material from many sources is then subjected to genetic analysis, which then creates in a computer-simulation process the alleged sequence of the suspected virus, a so-called in silico genome. At no time is an actual virus confirmed by electron microscopy. At no time is a genome extracted and sequenced from a real virus.
The proper way to isolate, characterize and demonstrate a new virus is to firstly take samples (blood, sputum, secretions) from many people (e.g. 500) with symptoms that are unique and specific enough to characterize an illness. Without mixing these samples with ANY tissue or products that also contain genetic material, the virologist macerates, filters, and ultracentrifuges i.e. purifies the specimen. This common virology technique, done for decades to isolate bacteriophages1 and so-called giant viruses in every virology lab, then allows the virologist to demonstrate with electron microscopy thousands of identically sized and shaped particles. These particles are then isolated and purified virus.
These identical particles are then checked for uniformity by physical or microscopic techniques. Once the purity is determined, the particles may be further characterized. This would include examining the structure, morphology, and chemical composition of the particles. Next, their genetic makeup is characterized by extracting the genetic material directly from the purified particles and using genetic-sequencing techniques, such as Sanger sequencing, that have also been around for decades. Then one does an analysis to confirm that these uniform particles are exogenous (outside) in origin as a virus is conceptualized to be, and not the normal break-down products of dead and dying tissues.2 (we know that virologists have no way to determine whether the particles they are seeing are viruses or just typical break-down products of dead and dying tissues.)3
If we have come this far, then we have fully isolated, characterized, and genetically sequenced an exogenous virus particle. However, we still have to show it is causally related to a disease. This is carried out by exposing a group of healthy subjects (animals are usually used) to this isolated, purified virus in the manner in which the disease is thought to be transmitted. If the animals get sick with the same disease, as confirmed by clinical and autopsy findings, one has now shown that the virus actually causes disease. This demonstrates infectivity and transmission of an infectious agent.
None of these steps has even been attempted with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, nor have all these steps been successfully performed for any so-called pathogenic virus. Our research indicates that a single study showing these steps does not exist in the medical literature.

The Wuhan Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre published the first full SARS-CoV-2 genome (MN908947.1 ). This has been updated many times. However, MN908947.1 was the first genetic sequence describing the alleged COVID 19 etiologic agent (SARS-CoV-2).
All subsequent claims, tests, treatments, statistics, vaccine development and resultant policies are based upon this sequence. If the tests for this novel virus don’t identify anything capable of causing illness in human beings, the whole COVID 19 narrative is nothing but a charade.
The WUHAN researchers stated that they had effectively pieced the SARS-CoV-2 genetic sequence together by matching fragments found in samples with other, previously discovered genetic sequences. From the gathered material, they found an 87.1% match with SARS coronavirus (SARS-Cov). They used de novo assembly and targeted PCR and found 29,891-base-pair, which shared a 79.6% sequence match to SARS-CoV.
They had to use de novo assembly because they had no prior knowledge of the correct sequence or order of those fragments. Quite simply, the WHO’s statement that Chinese researchers isolated the virus on the 7th January is false.
The Wuhan team used 40 rounds of RT-qPCR amplification to match fragments of cDNA (complementary DNA constructed from sampled RNA fragments) with the published SARS coronavirus genome (SARS-CoV). Unfortunately, it isn’t clear how accurate the original SARS-CoV genome is either.
Background: The ongoing outbreak of the recently emerged novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) poses a challenge for public health laboratories asVIRUS ISOLATES ARE UNAVAILABLE while there is growing evidence that the outbreak is more widespread than initially thought, and international spread through travellers does already occur. Aim: We aimed to develop and deploy robust diagnostic methodology for use in public health laboratory settings WITHOUT HAVING VIRUS MATERIAL AVAILABLE. Methods: Here we present a validated diagnostic workflow for 2019-nCoV, its design relying on close genetic relatedness of 2019-nCoV with SARS coronavirus, making use of synthetic nucleic acid technology.
A novel coronavirus currently termed 2019-nCoV was officially announced as the causative agent by Chinese authorities on 7 January. A viral genome sequence was released for immediate public health support via the community online resource virological.org on 10 January (Wuhan-Hu-1, GenBank accession number MN908947 [2]), followed by four other genomes deposited on 12 January in the viral sequence database curated by the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID). The GENOME SEQUENCES SUGGEST PRESENCE OF A VIRUS closely related to the members of a viral species termed severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-related CoV, a species defined by the agent of the 2002/03 outbreak of SARS in humans [3,4]. The species also comprises a large number of viruses mostly detected in rhinolophid bats in Asia and Europe.
What is required first for virus isolation/proof? We need to know where the RNA for which the PCR tests are calibrated comes from.
As textbooks (eg, White / Fenner. Medical Virology, 1986, p. 9) as well as leading virus researchers such as Luc Montagnier or Dominic Dwyer state , particle purification – ie the separation of an object from everything else that is not that object, as for instance Nobel laureate Marie Curie purified 100 mg of radium chloride in 1898 by extracting it from tons of pitchblende – is an essential pre-requisite for proving the existence of a virus, and thus to prove that the RNA from the particle in question comes from a new virus.
The reason for this is that PCR is extremely sensitive, which means it can detect even the smallest pieces of DNA or RNA – but it cannot determine where these particles came from. That has to be determined beforehand.
And because the PCR tests are calibrated for gene sequences (in this case, RNA sequences because SARS-CoV-2 is believed to be an RNA virus), we have to know that these gene snippets are part of the looked-for virus. And to know that, correct isolation and purification of the presumed virus has to be executed.
Hence, we have asked the science teams of the relevant papers which are referred to in the context of SARS-CoV-2 for proof whether the electron-microscopic shots depicted in their in vitro experiments show purified viruses.
But not a single team could answer that question with “yes” – and NB., Nobody said purification was not a necessary step. We only got answers like “No, we did not obtain an electron micrograph showing the degree of purification” (see below).
We asked several study authors, “Do your electron micrographs show the purified virus?”, They gave the following responses:

It is unequivocally recognized by both the European Commission and the US CDC, the most important national health organization in the world that the virus has never been isolated. The European Commission, which in its document of 16 April 2020 last wrote: “Since no virus isolates with a quantified amount of the SARS-CoV-2 are currently available …”1
The CDC writes: “Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available…”2
In short, both Europe and the US say the same thing: they call a material in which the virus has not been quantified “isolated virus”. But if it hasn’t been quantified, how can it be an isolated virus?
“In other words, it is a Frankenstein virus which has been concocted and stitched together using genomic database sequences (some viral, some not). It has never been properly purified and isolated so that it could be sequenced from end-to-end once derived from living tissue; instead, it’s just digitally assembled from a computer database. In this paper, the CDC scientists state they took just 37 base pairs from a genome of 30,000 base pairs which means that about 0.001% of the viral sequence is derived from actual living samples or real bodily tissue. In other words, they took these 37 segments and put them into a computer program, which filled in the rest of the base pairs.

The governments of many nations around the world couldn’t seem to come up with a real virus either when challenged to do so. More evidence proving the “virus” is constructed on a computer database from a digital gene bank comes from Frances Leader, who questioned the UK MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency) whether a real isolated virus was used to make the COVID vax (read more about the COVID vaccine which is not a vaccine here). Leader found that the WHO protocols that Pfizer used to produce the mRNA do not appear to identify any nucleotide sequences that are unique to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Leader asked if the “virus” was actually a computer generated genomic sequence, and ultimately the MHRA confirmed they had no real specimen:
“The DNA template does not come directly from an isolated virus from an infected person.”
These are just a few examples, there are many more. So has SARS-COV-2 been isolated and purified to show existence? You decide.

Horror! Afghanistan has been overrun by a regime so barbarous and cruel that under its rule people are allowed to step outside without a passport, may even enter government offices, museums, and stores without said passport, and where — gasp (!) — men may walk outside without face coverings!
This is simply too barbaric to even contemplate! Why can’t the Taliban be more like us?? It’s time to enter the 21st century, fellas!
On the other hand, the Taliban do at least ban concerts, cinemas and night clubs so there is still hope they may yet join the civilized world and offer progressive governance, with more clampdowns on anything that makes life worth living, just as the West has done for the past year and a half. Fingers crossed!
The dystopian life under the Taliban:

Funerals can be held. Attending a funeral is a reasonable excuse to leave home and to enter a lockdown area.
You can only leave your home to attend a funeral, memorial service or gathering afterwards if you’re a spouse (including a de facto), parent, child or sibling of the deceased.
Up to 10 people can attend an indoor or outdoor funeral or memorial service or gathering afterwards — but they must wear a mask indoors. The people conducting the service are not included in this cap.
A place of worship can’t open to members of the public except to hold a funeral service or memorial service that complies with the rules for funerals and memorial services — see above.

Those influential leftist activists in the Alt-Media Community who are condemning the Taliban should actually appreciate its anti-imperialist victory over America even if they still disagree with aspects of the group’s vision.
Leftist Gatekeeping Goes Against Genuine Anti-Imperialism
The Taliban’s swift takeover of Afghanistan surprised many observers, but perhaps none more than the influential left-wing voices in the Alt-Media Community who’ve since scrambled to explain this by speculating that the group is really an American proxy. According to their interpretation of events, the Taliban didn’t take over Afghanistan after defeating America, but was merely handed control of it by their supposed foes per a secret deal between them. Part of the basis for their theory is Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaeen telling the BBC from 28:07 of this interview that his movement wants to open up a new chapter of relations with the US and hopes that America will help reconstruct the war-torn country.
These well-intentioned leftist activists’ justified distrust of American imperialism has regrettably clouded their judgement. They’re unable to accept that the Taliban – which is still designated as terrorists by Russia despite Moscow pragmatically interacting with them – has transitioned into an anti-imperialist national liberation movement that successfully defeated the world’s military superpower in a more humiliating fashion than even the Vietnamese did. In their minds, any movement that previously received American support like the Taliban’s mujahideen forefathers did during the 1980s, doesn’t embrace leftist ideologies, and requests the US’ reconstruction assistance as a form of reparations is incapable of being genuine anti-imperialists.
Prior Pragmatic Cooperation With The US Doesn’t Discredit Anti-Imperialism
This is the completely wrong way to judge such movements. For starters, the mujahideen pragmatically cooperated with the US out of shared interests at the time. The Soviet-backed government was extremely unpopular across the majority of Afghan society even though it was enthusiastically supported among the country’s minority of urban dwellers. I explained the complex geostrategic dynamics at play in that conflict in a response that I recently published to respected Islamabad-based physicist and writer Mr. Pervez Hoodbhoy here which should be read by those who are interested in learning more about my interpretation of those events. In short, the mujahideen and the Americans were using one another, only for the US to later abandon its allies and then decisively turn against the movement that eventually emerged from them.
Prior cooperation with the US shouldn’t disqualify any movement, let alone on the basis of their forefathers (as the Taliban wouldn’t be established until over a decade later), since other ones that these same leftist activists rightly regard as anti-imperialists have their own history of ties with the global hegemon. Syria for instance worked very closely with the CIA’s secret rendition program throughout the 2000s yet it presumably did so in order to retain pragmatic relations with the US out of fear that failing to cooperate with it on this issue of shared anti-terrorist interests might be exploited as a pretext for pressuring it even further. It also shouldn’t be forgotten that the US earlier brokered Syrian-”Israeli” talks and that President Assad later hosted John Kerry.
Leftist Ideologies Don’t Have A Monopoly Over Anti-Imperialism
The next leftist talking point to debunk with respect to their gatekeeping of what constitutes anti-imperialist forces nowadays is that these movements must always embrace leftist ideologies in order to be considered genuine. No ideology has a monopoly over anti-imperialism nor should any ever aspire to such. Leftism is extremely unpopular in Afghan society which instead very proudly embraces its Islamist traditions. Many of these same leftists consider Islamist-inspired movements like Yemen’s Ansarullah (“Houthis”), Lebanon’s Hezbollah, and the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) among others to be genuine anti-imperialists despite inexplicably denying this same designation to the Taliban and never accounting for these double standards.
It can’t be known for sure, but those leftist activists might be basing their double standards on the fact that the three aforementioned movements are politically allied with Iran, which they regard as the regional anti-imperialist leader because of its principled opposition to “Israel”. If that’s their criteria, though, then it should be noted that the Taliban also detests “Israel” too even though they’re not politically allied with Iran. In fact, they have a history of problems with the Islamic Republic even though they’ve since been hosted in Tehran for peace talks as recently as last month after pledging to change their former ways and behave much more pragmatically once they return to power. This fact should make those leftists reconsider their double standards.
Reconstruction-As-Reparations Doesn’t Contradict Anti-Imperialism
The last of these three primary leftist talking points to challenge is the claim that those movements that want cordial relations with the US after their wars with it finally end and hope for it to reconstruct their country as a form of reparations can’t legitimately describe themselves as anti-imperialists. Countries like Cuba, Iran, Syria, and Venezuela that these same leftist activists consider to be anti-imperialist regularly advocate for America to lift its unilateral sanctions regime against them so that they can trade with it, and there’s nothing “ideologically inconsistent” with that either since. China, which can be considered the world’s leading anti-imperialist force right now, conducts hundreds of billions of dollars worth of trade with the US every year
Furthermore, the Taliban’s reconstruction-as-reparations plan is consistent with China’s and Russia’s visions. The first-mentioned wishes that the US joined its Belt & Road Initiative (BRI) instead of trying to sabotage it while the second’s Special Presidential Representative for Afghanistan said that the US has financial and economic responsibilities to Afghanistan even after the war ends. The emerging plan that I outlined here is that the US will seek to expand its economic influence northward from Pakistan to the Central Asian Republics via the PAKAFUZ railway (which essentially functions as the northern expansion of BRI’s flagship project, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor) while Russia expands its own southward to the Indian Ocean via that same route.
American Imperialism Is No Match For The Taliban’s Anti-Imperialism
Having established that the Taliban should legitimately be regarded as a genuine anti-imperialist national liberation movement that embodies the popular will of the social majority and successfully defeated the world’s military superpower, it’s now time to talk about the group’s future. The Taliban might struggle to win the trust of Afghanistan’s urban minority which is fearful that their new leaders’ strict interpretation of Islamic law will infringe on their previously Western-backed civil liberties. Some social tensions can therefore be expected, but it’s unlikely that they’ll destabilize the country all that much. On the topic of instability, the US might try to support some anti-Taliban terrorist groups like ISIS-K, but its means to do so are severely limited by its failure to establish any regional military presence in the wake of its shameful retreat from Afghanistan.
The Taliban’s seizure of American military equipment will enable it to more confidently defend itself from internal and external threats, whether naturally occurring or externally exacerbated. It can also now count on those US-trained members of the Afghan National Army (ANA) who mostly peacefully surrendered to them earlier this month after they sympathized more with the group than with their foreign-backed puppet leader. The Taliban’s agreement not to attack retreating US troops was pragmatic since it prevented unnecessary retaliatory strikes against civilians and allowed the US to save some modicum of “face” so that it can then participate in the group’s reconstruction-as-reparations plan. Leftist activists should therefore appreciate the Taliban’s anti-imperialist victory over America even if they still disagree with aspects of the group’s vision.
(Chaz Anon) Appeal to Authority is a logical fallacy. Yet, during this long drawn out Covid-19 simulation of Global authoritarianism we are told over and over to trust the CDC, which has gotten it wrong all along the way. The key to a healthy republic is to continually question authority. And the most important question to put before this autocratic authority is: Has the Sars-CoV-2 Virus Ever Really Been Isolated? And if so, show us the proof.
The United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta has confirmed in writing they do not have any real-life, isolated, purified, sample of the SARS-CoV-2 Virus and cannot provide any records about that virus, which allegedly causes COVID-19.
Over the last several months Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests have been made to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) asking for evidence that CDC has isolated or purified the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
On June 7, 2021, the CDC confirmed (again) in writing they do not have any records showing they have ever isolated or purified the virus that allegedly causes the disease called COVID-19.
These written requests were made by Ms. Christine Massey to CDC/ATSDR FOIA Chief Officer Mr. Robert Andoh, to locate and deliver ANY records, research and/or findings for ANY “viral” isolation and purification (by anyone, anywhere, anytime in the World) from a patient sample, via maceration, filtration and/or the use of an ultracentrifuge . . . what is called the ‘Gold Standard’ for isolating and identifying a pathological micro or nana organism.
The ‘Gold Standard’ for isolating and identifying microbes are referred to as Koch’s and Rivers Postulates which was established many years ago for isolating bacteria (Koch) or Viral (Rivers) postulates.
Here is a side-by-side comparison of Koch’s Postulates and Rivers Postulates:
Isolation: The action of isolating; the fact or condition of being isolated or standing alone; separation from other things or persons; solitariness.
– Oxford English Dictionary
The controversy over whether the SARS-CoV-2 virus has ever been isolated or purified continues. However, using the above definition, common sense, the laws of logic and the dictates of science, any unbiased person must come to the conclusion that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has never been isolated or purified. As a result, no confirmation of the virus’ existence can be found. The logical, common sense, and scientific consequences of this fact are:
In as concise terms as possible, here’s the proper way to isolate, characterize and demonstrate a new virus. First, one takes samples (blood, sputum, secretions) from many people (e.g. 500) with symptoms which are unique and specific enough to characterize an illness. Without mixing these samples with ANY tissue or products that also contain genetic material, the virologist macerates, filters and ultracentrifuges i.e. purifies the specimen. This common virology technique, done for decades to isolate bacteriophages1 and so-called giant viruses in every virology lab, then allows the virologist to demonstrate with electron microscopy thousands of identically sized and shaped particles. These particles are the isolated and purified virus.
These identical particles are then checked for uniformity by physical and/or microscopic techniques. Once the purity is determined, the particles may be further characterized. This would include examining the structure, morphology, and chemical composition of the particles. Next, their genetic makeup is characterized by extracting the genetic material directly from the purified particles and using genetic-sequencing techniques, such as Sanger sequencing, that have also been around for decades. Then one does an analysis to confirm that these uniform particles are exogenous (outside) in origin as a virus is conceptualized to be, and not the normal breakdown products of dead and dying tissues.2 (As of May 2020, we know that virologists have no way to determine whether the particles they’re seeing are viruses or just normal break-down products of dead and dying tissues.)3
If we have come this far then we have fully isolated, characterized, and genetically sequenced an exogenous virus particle. However, we still have to show it is causally related to a disease. This is carried out by exposing a group of healthy subjects (animals are usually used) to this isolated, purified virus in the manner in which the disease is thought to be transmitted. If the animals get sick with the same disease, as confirmed by clinical and autopsy findings, one has now shown that the virus actually causes a disease. This demonstrates infectivity and transmission of an infectious agent.
None of these steps has even been attempted with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, nor have all these steps been successfully performed for any so-called pathogenic virus. Our research indicates that a single study showing these steps does not exist in the medical literature.
Instead, since 1954, virologists have taken unpurified samples from a relatively few people, often less than ten, with a similar disease. They then minimally process this sample and inoculate this unpurified sample onto tissue culture containing usually four to six other types of material — all of which contain identical genetic material as to what is called a “virus.” The tissue culture is starved and poisoned and naturally disintegrates into many types of particles, some of which contain genetic material. Against all common sense, logic, use of the English language and scientific integrity, this process is called “virus isolation.” This brew containing fragments of genetic material from many sources is then subjected to genetic analysis, which then creates in a computer-simulation process the alleged sequence of the alleged virus, a so called in silico genome. At no time is an actual virus confirmed by electron microscopy. At no time is a genome extracted and sequenced from an actual virus. This is scientific fraud.
The observation that the unpurified specimen — inoculated onto tissue culture along with toxic antibiotics, bovine fetal tissue, amniotic fluid and other tissues — destroys the kidney tissue onto which it is inoculated is given as evidence of the virus’ existence and pathogenicity. This is scientific fraud.
From now on, when anyone gives you a paper that suggests the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been isolated, please check the methods sections. If the researchers used Vero cells or any other culture method, you know that their process was not isolation. You will hear the following excuses for why actual isolation isn’t done:
If No. 1 is correct, and we can’t find the virus in the sputum of sick people, then on what evidence do we think the virus is dangerous or even lethal? If No. 2 is correct, then how is the virus spread from person to person? We are told it emerges from the cell to infect others. Then why isn’t it possible to find it?
Finally, questioning these virology techniques and conclusions is not some distraction or divisive issue. Shining the light on this truth is essential to stop this terrible fraud that humanity is confronting. For, as we now know, if the virus has never been isolated, sequenced or shown to cause illness, if the virus is imaginary, then why are we wearing masks, social distancing and putting the whole world into prison?
Finally, if pathogenic viruses don’t exist, then what is going into those injectable devices erroneously called “vaccines,” and what is their purpose? This scientific question is the most urgent and relevant one of our time.

Every now and again, some crappy little country has to pick up the United States and throw it against the wall. It’s the only way Americans will learn to stay at home and attend to their swampy garden. Is this the moment they learn? We shall see; but American propaganda and self-delusion is strong.
Its allies, relying on Washington’s word, information and competence have followed it into another disaster that they will have to pay for because they don’t have two oceans between it and catastrophe. Is this the moment they learn? We shall see; but European propaganda and self-delusion is strong.
I don’t blame Biden much and he did have the courage to get out rather than kicking it down the road for his successor (although he did break the agreement Trump had made). In his much-mocked speech last month he was only repeating what rooms full of be-medalled and be-starred people told him. Is this the moment he learns? We shall see; but American propaganda and self-delusion is strong.
NATO’s nation-building, security-building, defence institution building piffle is exposed as delusory nonsense. Is this the moment they learn? We shall see; but NATO propaganda and self-delusion is strong.
A stunning and comprehensive defeat, worse than Vietnam. The “unipolar moment” ends in chaos and humiliation at Kabul airport: the hyperpower can’t even conduct a retreat.

The Afghanistan defeat will be more disastrous than we can now imagine.
State Department spokesman Ned Price gave a press conference where he informed the Taliban about U.S. expectations. He announced that “a future Afghan government that upholds the basic rights of its people, that doesn’t harbor terrorists, and that protects the basic rights of its people, including the basic fundamental rights of half of its population, its women and girls, that is a government that we would be able to work with.”
Price did not have a clue about how inane this sounded. The country is in chaos, the U.S. has suffered a major defeat, and he is listing demands. There are thousands of Americans trapped in Afghanistan right now. Our response is to anger and insult the people who hold their lives in their hands.
The president is portraying the withdrawal as a partial success: “[o]ur mission to degrade the terrorist threat of al-Qaeda in Afghanistan and kill Osama bin Laden was a success.” He claimed, “I am president of the United States of America, and the buck stops with me,” and then proceeded to blame everyone from Donald Trump to the Afghan military for the defeat. This was a large enough mistake that even Jake Tapper took note of it: “[t]he president said that the buck stopped with him but, in fact, this speech was full of fingers pointing and blame.” If the president loses the support of the Deep State media, he is finished.
Ned Price claimed, “We are confident, but more importantly, the military and our Intelligence Community leaders have spoken, and even testified to the fact that we will have capabilities … to detect and to disrupt any terrorist plotting.” Ned is probably referring to the inner circle of the State Department when he claims, “We are confident.” Our NATO allies do not seem to share Ned’s confidence in our Intelligence Community.
Biden stated that we are “moving quickly to execute the plans we had put in place to respond to every contingency, including the rapid collapse we’re seeing now.” He claims that the reason why people were not evacuated sooner was “some of the Afghans did not want to leave earlier, still hopeful for their country.” He also wanted to “avoid triggering a crisis of confidence.” The president, claims he, “will not repeat the mistakes we’ve made in the past.”
Yet Biden has no clue about what will transpire in this “fluid situation.” He has already demonstrated a lack of judgment. He has been criticized for being mentally challenged. He accidentally revealed the identities of CIA agents during a video conference. His gaffes are not new. In 2016, he outed the military aide who carried the nuclear football.
The Taliban is not interested in what the U.S. or the international community thinks. Threats of boycotts and withholding foreign aid will not convince them to join the 21st century. Their policies about women will not change, much less their views of homosexuality. Ned claims, “We are operating on multiple fronts and around the clock to protect our people, those who have worked side by side with the United States over the years.” This must sound very reassuring to people who have worked for the U.S. and find themselves far from the Kabul airport.
The Taliban has not given up on its beheading technique. An Afghan translator who worked for U.S. was beheaded. It is unlikely that this is an isolated case. Twenty-two Afghan commandos were executed by the Taliban when they attempted to surrender. A Twitter message reads, “An Afghani interpreter I have come to know well over the years was hung in the streets last night. They melted his DoD ID into his chest. Cut off his arms. And killed his family.”

France has gone authoritarian in inept fashion, as its bid to control the movement of its citizens failed TWICE in a week when the platform that generates government QR codes was overwhelmed. The result, predictably, was chaos.
France and other budding authoritarian countries with ambitions to lord over their citizens’ movements by introducing health passes have eyes that are bigger than their stomachs. They have proven repeatedly that they’re far too incompetent to practice proper authoritarianism. Events last week are a case in point.
French President Emmanuel Macron announced in the dead of summer that suddenly all French citizens would require a health pass to access all venues in daily life with a capacity of 50 or more people – meaning a negative Covid-19 nose swab test, the full vaccination protocol, or a positive Covid test no more than six months old (after which you’re expected to ignore your acquired immunity and succumb to the jab).
Suddenly, people camping in the middle of summer found themselves unable to use the outdoor pool at their vacation destination and unable to take high-speed trains back home without the health pass. And this pass takes only one form – that of a QR code generated by a government-run platform.
When a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or pharmacist, enters your test or jab information into the system – called SIDEP (which stands for ‘Population Screening Information System’, like something out of a bad sci-fi movie) – you receive a link via text message and/or email that you click to download the QR code to a government-issued smartphone app called ‘TousAntiCovid’ (or ‘All Anti-Covid’). This can then be scanned by security agents at the entrance to swimming pools, gyms, shopping malls, restaurants, hospitals, libraries, movie theaters, or trains.
This useless system of apartheid, in practice, allows negative tested unjabbed to mingle freely with non-tested but jabbed potential Covid carriers. It also, in practice, is completely unreliable in the image of its creators.
On August 9, the same day that the system was expanded beyond just ‘leisure venues’ like gyms and pools, Macron’s start-up nation project crashed for several hours, leaving people locked out of daily life.
Apparently, the government wasn’t prepared for the number of people who all needed to request a QR code at the same time. But then, just four days later, on the Friday of the August holiday weekend, as people were scrambling for tests and QR codes to access their travel, hotels, and other activities, the system crashed yet again from 3:30pm to at least midnight, again apparently due to usage volume.
Pharmacists took to social media to complain in real time. “The government is as usual not up to the task… As pharmacists, we test and vaccinate in our dispensary without appointment from Monday morning to Saturday evening… The SIDEP site crashes regularly,” said one.
Another tweeted directly at Macron: “@EmmanuelMacron THE SIDEP PLATFORM THAT DOESN’T WORK; HOW DO I REPORT PEOPLE?”
Yet another tried addressing Health Minister Olivier Veran, saying that World of Warcraft’s gaming platform was more reliable than the government’s system: “Hello @olivierveran. Is it normal to have less connection problems on @Warcraft_FR than on the SiDep? What do I do with the vaccinations and the tests?”
One citizen tweeted the Olympique Marseille football club to ask how they were supposed to get into the match against Bordeaux over the weekend without the coveted QR code: “A question @OM_Officiel: given that the Sidep site does not work to send the QR Codes of negative antigenic tests, how do we do it?”
Several others captured the frustration of living in our new dystopia: “SIDEP YOU’RE DEAD HOW DO I GO TO THE RESTAURANT?”
It’s one thing to have designs on creating a massive data dragnet under sanitary pretext – which some Western countries appear to now be doing in order to compete with China’s data collection system of ‘social credit’, which uses people’s private information to control them by dictating which venues and activities they’re permitted to access. But it’s another to not even have the discipline or the competence to be authoritarian.
About the only thing worse than an authoritarian government is an inept authoritarian government. The result is chaos, as we’re discovering.
And by the way, who actually manages the health data of French citizens? Where does it go? It’s a question worth asking given that our governments are so insecure that they see hackers lurking everywhere, ready to pounce on their vulnerability and capitalize on their incompetence. Why should any of us trust any of our health information to governments that are less able to protect our private data than we are ourselves?
Up until now, French health data in the pandemic era has been entrusted to Microsoft, with ‘plans’ to migrate to a French provider still in the works.
But the damage may already be done.
Government health data collection – for QR code purposes or otherwise – is a question of sovereignty, both personal and national. And France’s data regulatory body – the CNIL (or the “National Commission for Informatics and Freedoms”) – has already sounded the alarm on the country’s outsourcing of Covid related health data to American service providers, making it accessible to the US government.
Last year, the commission reminded the French government of “the concerns raised by the European Data Protection Board concerning access by United States authorities to data transferred to the United States, and particularly the collection and access to personal data for national security purposes under Section 702 of the US FISA Act.”
Why should any of us trust these people with anything, let alone our private information or our health? Particularly when they couldn’t run a drunk fest in a vat of ale.
