Top News Stories Of The Week, Issue No. 7
Headline stories from throughout independent media you should know about, from the week of August 6h, 2022
Compiling some of the top headlines of the week from across alternative media, curated by Break The Matrix and beyond.
In this weeks edition…
1.) Media Ignoring The One Peace Treaty That May Help Make The World Safer
Certainly in recent months with geopolitical tensions worsening there has been a marked increase of talk regarding nuclear weapons and even the potentiality of nuclear war
But notably with all of the attention given to the subject, it isn't outright being condemned. In fact, some war-mongering pundits have actually attempted to put a positive spin on the possibility of nuclear annihilation.
This is further exemplified by the fact that, as Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting (FAIR) notes, much of the mainstream media is completely ignoring the existence of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). Which was first adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2017 and officially entered into force in January 2021.
If all of these corporate outlets truly desired a freer, more unified, and peaceful world every single one of them would be dedicating considerable amounts of time to reminding the public of the existence of the treaty and it's purpose in attempts to pave the way for less nuclear proliferation, instead of more of it. The fact that they are not speaks volumes.
2.) VAERS Reports Continue To Skyrocket
The Free Thought Project reports that 600% more deaths have been reported to the VAERS database in last 19 months than in its entire 32 year history.
This is incredibly concerning, and it should be reported as such. Though most of the mainstream press continues to ignore it.
Since the rollout of the experimental injection — which one must keep in mind has still not received full approval and is still only under emergency use authorization; has not been fully tested; was authorized using faulty data from insidiously corrupt institutions with massive conflicts of interest; and is, by all relevant data, unnecessary, — injury reports have continued to pile up.
So much so that reporting avenues such as VAERS, the European counterpart, and even military databases are seeing shocking record breaking rises in every side effect associated with vaccine injury. Despite this authorities continue to ignore the trend.
3.) Expanding The IRS Is Only Going To Hurt Average Americans, Job Listing says New IRS Hires Must Be Willing To Kill Americans
While doing so under the guise of "taxing the rich", congress has authorized a massive overhaul of the IRS in what is yet another weaponization of the agency against the working class. The expansions to the IRS, totaling an additional 80,000+ employees, would mean the agency would have more employees than the Pentagon, State Department, Border Patrol, and FBI combined.
As this article from the Foundation for Economic Education points out, the IRS is a rogue agency that already has a history of unjustly targeting innocent Americans. And at a time when so many people are struggling financially due to the consequences of lockdowns, inflation from fed spending, and the controlled collapse of our supply chain, this is yet another tool by the establishment to weaken the working class.
In the days to follow, the agency posted and promptly deleted job listings upon which requirements included a willingness to be able to use deadly force if necessary.
The implication is quite clear; they're about to start going after more Americans than ever before to take more of their hard earned money.
Coupled with the fact that an investigation from last year has shown the agency is also buying tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, working class Americans appear to literally be in the crosshairs of the kleptocratic agency.
4.) CBS Documentary Proves Ukraine Mishandling Weapons Shipments — Then They Delete It
Via RT —
“With the US and its allies pledging unprecedented levels of military support to Ukraine, a recent CBS News bombshell report (now deleted) revealed that only around 30% of the weapons sent by the West actually make it to the front lines. The report adds to ongoing rumors of waste, corruption, and black market profiteering.
The US has approved more than $54 billion of economic and military aid to Ukraine since February, while the UK has committed nearly $3 billion in military aid alone, and the EU has spent another $2.5 billion.
“There is really no information as to where they’re going at all,” said Donatella Rovera, a senior crisis adviser with Amnesty International. “What is really worrying is that some countries that are sending weapons do not seem to think that it is their responsibility to put in place a very robust oversight mechanism.”
Following comments my own —
Isn't it funny how my foreign policy analysis continues to be right?
Like I said a year in advance that the United States & NATO was going to turn Ukraine into another protracted quagmire just like Syria, then it happened.
Then back in March I pointed out that arming Ukrainian Neo-Nazi groups was going to predictably create the same blowback that it did when the US armed jihadist "moderate rebels" in Syria.
Now, CBS for once did an investigation and reported actual news, and found that 70% of the weapons going to Ukraine are unaccounted for. They then promptly retracted said report because warmongers are displeased by facts.
Just like in the early days of the dirty war in Syria, we've now reached the point in the saga where they are beginning to admit that the "weapons are going missing".
Any bets on how long it's going to take for the MSM to admit the weapons are falling into the hands of extremists? Because that's what's going to happen next.
5.) The US Government Is The World's Worst Violator Of Press Freedom.
While the first world authoritarian regime that is the United States Empire grandstands as a beacon of freedom and democracy, the reality is it goes to great lengths to perpetuate censorship and the persecution of alternative voices.
Whether it be through the arbitrary detention and torture of Julian Assange, setting the precedent that telling the truth can be deemed illegal whenever the US government demands it;
Or the big Tech companies of Silicon Valley – who exist as extensions of the US National Security state – utilize sophisticated means of repressing dissident voices by proxy;
Or the facilitation of propaganda assets posing as "independent journalists" abroad in order to sew the seeds of discontent and disarray on behalf of regime change operations —
The irrefutable fact of the matter is that the American government is guilty of all the things it accuses its foremost adversaries of doing.
6.) Les Wexner’s Ties To Israeli Intelligence, Academia, & A Web Of Globalist Officials
In this excerpt from Whitney Webb's upcoming book, evidence is documented continuing to tie the key figures of the Epstein network to global leaders and institutions with a considerable amount of power across the planet.
From nearly every aspect of the Israeli government, to top schools such as Harvard, and the World Economic Forum, the tentacles of Wexner’s reach is unfathomable. And further demonstrates how deep the insidious network has entrenched itself in the fabric of ruling class society.
8.) WHO Renews Push For Global Pandemic Treaty, As World Bank Creates $1 Billion Fund For Vaccine Passports
Children’s Health Defense has recently reported the World Health Organization has plans to move forward with a renewed and revised version of its draconian sovereignty stealing treaty which would grant the WHO “absolute power over global biosecurity, such as the power to implement digital identities/vaccine passports, mandatory vaccinations, travel restrictions, standardized medical care + more.”
Previously I’ve reported on the dangers the pandemic treaty poses. In my recent article Five Major Stories You’re Being Distracted From While Roe v. Wade Dominates The Headlines, I elaborate stating;
While the entire world has had their attention diverted to one thing or the other — the World Health Organization is in the midst of it’s very own power play.
Receiving almost no critical attention in the corporate press, the WHO is spearheading an initiative to establish an international cooperative under a “pandemic treaty” that would end national sovereignty as we know it.
As Rio Times reports,
“The treaty changes aim to give the WHO de facto governing power over its member states in the event of a pandemic, without involvement or consultation with national governments or national parliaments.”
Michele Bachmann Dean, Robertson School of Government, Regent University adds: “This authority that they would be given would impact 99.4% of all the people in the world… The WHO would have the decision-making authority to intervene in the United States’ government policy and any nation of the world without our permission.”
“For instance, the lockdowns where you see 26 million people today locked down in Shanghai, China… the WHO would have the authority to be able to impose that here in the United States for whatever pretext they want. They don’t have to show data; they could do this. What this does, bottom line is it creates a platform for global governance, global governance through the WHO.”
The World Council for Health (WCH), a coalition of scientists, doctors, lawyers, and civil society advocacy organizations, opposes the World Health Organization (WHO)’s moves to implement a power grab in the form of a global pandemic agreement, while the world’s attention is diverted by the latest crisis.
The WCH considers the proposed WHO agreement not only unnecessary but a threat to sovereignty and inalienable rights. It increases the WHO’s suffocating power to declare unjustified pandemics, impose dehumanizing lockdowns, and enforce expensive, unsafe, and ineffective treatments against the will of the people
In episode 832 of The Rundown Live I interviewed Shabnam Palesa Mohamed, spokesperson for the World Council for Health, who elaborated upon the treaty and its potential ramifications in further detail.
In recent months the treaty has faced considerable backlash from several non western countries heavily impeding its progress. Now the WHO is attempting to force through this globalist agenda once again.
9.) Bombshell FOIA Documents Expose Big Tech / Government Collusion
A Freedom of Information Act request has gleaned hundreds of internal CDC documents that serve as a smoking gun proving collaboration between elements of the federal government and supposedly "private" companies, including Google, Twitter, and Facebook, coordinating efforts to censor speech and information that they deem to be misinformation. Some of which has later proven to be true.
If only there was a word to accurately describe the merger of state and corporate power for totalitarian interests.. Oh yeah there is, it's called fascism.
10.) Plundering Syria — US Steals Up To 83% Of Syrian Oil.
New damning information has been released from Syria's Oil Ministry indicating that American occupational forces steal approximately 66,000 barrels from the country's oil fields every single day.
It's been no secret that a primary facet of America's multiple wars of aggression is the looting of natural resources from those whom they impose themselves upon. But new information goes to show exactly how grotesque the theft truly is.
In addition to the information released from the oil ministry, more evidence has been released to corroborate the claim. Published on August 10th, video from a Russian attack helicopter purports to show a massive convoy of American vehicles full of Syrian oil making its way across the border of Raqqah into Iraq.
Infamously, in 2019, then President Donald Trump stated matter of factly that the current role of the United States occupation in Syria was to take control of the nation's oil. Which is a war crime. It appears as though the Biden Administration is continuing to follow in its predecessor's footsteps.
12.) CDC Drastically Changes Its COVID Policy
In what should be considered the final nail in the coffin for the past 2 and a half years of COVID-1984 insanity it seems as though the CDC have finally caved in to facing the facts.
Announced on August 11th, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention has completely altered its guidance’s for those exposed to COVID-19 to focus on individual decisions rather than a collectivist response. Including stating that those exposed to the virus no longer need to quarantine, that the unvaccinated should follow the same guidance as the vaccinated, that students may stay in class after being exposed to the virus, and that testing is no longer necessary for those without symptoms.
Of course for those that have been paying attention for the past two years and remained logically consistent much of this advice falls in line with what many of us have been saying from the beginning. In fact it is strikingly similar to the same recommendations by many of the renowned experts that were so viciously slandered for their views throughout the entirety of this ordeal.
Although such a concession, while certainly welcomed, is also somewhat bittersweet at this point in time. It cannot be understated the incredible amount of irreparable societal damage that has been done by the totalitarian response.
Businesses closed forever, financial livelihoods shattered, countless lives destroyed, the discrimination of vaccine mandates, the irreversible psychological damage of mass masking of children and even adults. The evisceration of civil liberties from enhanced surveillance tactics. Not to mention the innumerable catastrophic consequences of lockdown mandates.
And just like that they flipped the script. "You guys were right, this is the right way to approach things". Surely we will still see some residual of the totalitarianism that so quickly crept its way into our society. But we should not be so quick to merely embrace the victory and move on either. The monsters responsible for these years worth of suffering and the generations of suffering that will continue due to the after effects of their decisions still must be held accountable for their actions.
POSITIVE STORIES OF THE WEEK
It isn’t all bad! Even with all the insanity around the world and much of the harsh topics we have to cover as independent journalists, it is important to realize there is still so much good left in the world too.
The predator class thrive on keeping society trapped in a low vibrational frequency perpetuated by fear, anger, stress, anxiety, toxicity, and all-around negativity. The best way to fight this is of course with more goodness, love, kindness, compassion, empathy, and overall positivity.
To that end, Break The Matrix makes it a point to attempt to close out every day with a Positive Story Of The Day to remind readers there is always something to smile about and bring a little bit of joy and happiness back into the news cycle.
Here are this weeks positive stories…
1.) “It Means Everything.” Neighbors “Adopt” Grandma After She Loses Husband And Home.
You don't have to be blood to be family, and this positive story exemplifies that to full effect, along with the beautiful healing power of kindness and community.
Shortly after Gean LeVar’s husband passed away, she also lost her home. With nothing left and nowhere to go she was faced with a terribly life altering scenario. That’s when a kind neighbor stepped in to offer a helping hand, and soon 200 volunteers had joined in to save Gean’s home.
2.) Parts Of Great Barrier Reef Show Highest Coral Cover In 36 Years
Great news for the Great Barrier Reef!
Things can and are changing for the better, don't let anyone else convince you otherwise.
