Truths to Remember in a Time of Lies

The #US #Declaration of #Independence
❛❛ We hold these #truths to be self-evident, that all men are created #equal, that they are endowed by their #Creator with certain #unalienable #rights, that among these are #Life, #Liberty and the #Pursuit of #happiness. ❜❜ 1776
Surely and logically, all #alien #beings deserve the same unalienable rights as everybody else.

[2/3] It's not showing how remote viewing can explain #UFOs. It's not showing remote viewing at all, so far.
Post #Newton, #science & #philosophical thought require #math & other #technologies that extend our #human senses & capabilities — #radioastronomy for example. These methods reach beyond our #biases, #intuitions & other limitations.
The show asks us to be #skeptical of official agendas, but then clouds its own #agenda. It knows a few things, but does it reveal hard #truths about #UFOs?
Even though this has been reported by #Zionist media, it's really worth the read if you wanna know some dark #truths about #Germany (and its insane relationship with "#Israel" and #Zionism):

Mostly auto translated, notes by me in brackets:
Berlin in mid-May at about 6 o'clock in the morning, a loud "Pounding" against the apartment door gets student Alina T. [not her real name, see below] out of her sleep. The young woman does not know what’s going on at first glance." "The DHL man? - No, can’t be!", she is completely confused.
When her husband opens the door, several LKA [State Police, criminal matters] officers, two employees of the district office and also the SEK [SWAT] pass him and "storm" into the apartment. Puzzled, he looks at the search warrant.
Alina T. [never charged with a crime], meanwhile still in the bedroom, tries to close the door, the young woman is half naked. But two female officers stop her and enter the bedroom, arresting Alina T, who is trembling in fear. She describes the moment of the house search opposite the ARD [largest public German broadcaster] Hauptstadtstudio [Berlin office].
Use of anti-constitutional symbols?
The background was a Facebook entry in the student’s profile: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free". When she was told this, Alina T had to laugh first - for relief. Because now it is clear that it can only be a misunderstanding.
…
She is also scared now, at the end of June - because the "misunderstanding" has not yet dissolved. Criminal proceedings are underway for the use of anti-constitutional symbols. She wants to protect her identity, so we changed her name.
…
Alina T is a case in statistics that Federal Interior Minister Nancy Faeser regularly uses as evidence of the massively increased number of anti-Semitic offences. For the year 2023, the report lists 5,164 offences in this category.
…
The Federal Ministry of the Interior cannot quantify how often the slogan "From the river to the sea - Palestine will be free" is reflected in these statistics.
…
"This slogan alone has led to a large number of investigations in a few months. I assume a high three-digit, if not four-digit, figure nationwide since 7 October 2023. "Because of it, apartments are searched, demonstrations are banned and people are repeatedly arrested at meetings," lawyer Benjamin Düsberg, who also represents Alina T., tells the ARD-Hauptstadtstudio.
…
That the statement should nevertheless lead to criminal liability without further circumstances is due to a decree of the Federal Ministry of the Interior from the beginning of November. After that, the statement is generally attributed to Hamas. Whoever uses it should automatically use the flag of a terrorist organization.
This logic was contradicted by the Mannheim Regional Court in mid-June in the second and last instance. From the Board’s point of view, the statement remains "general" and has a complex history. It cannot be deduced from him how historical Palestine should be liberated. In addition, "Hamas' own-use of the slogan must be denied", which is not part of the Hamas Charter.
Doubts about the legality of the procedure
The court further states: "The extent to which Hamas has used the slogan in its entirety and has made itself its own, is not shown in the statements in the 'Situational Overview Report Anti-Semitism' of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, but is merely asserted there."
The court also makes it clear that the Ministry of the Interior cannot at all define in a binding manner whether it is a mark of Hamas. The fact that the ministry classified the mere part of the slogan "From the river to the sea" in its prohibition order of 3 November as a hallmark of Hamas does not therefore lead to the parole’s criminality.
According to the Court, the prohibition order "has no constitutive effect, although considerable doubts have already been raised as to whether the prohibition with Art. 5 paragraph 1 GG [Grundgesetz, Basic Law, allegedly the "Constitution"] is compatible and does not violate the state neutrality obligation and the prohibition of discrimination".
…
At the request of the ARD-Hauptstadtstudio, the ministry informs that it does not feel bound by the decision. [#Gestapo don't care]
…
However, further consequences could also emerge that go beyond a house search. The ministry plans to facilitate deportations, should "terror be glorified" on the Internet - even without a corresponding court ruling.
[Heil Nancy [#Faeser]!]

If you ask an infectious diseases specialist whether we should start worrying about influenza A H5N1, they will probably tell you that we should always be worrying about it. An influenza pandemic has long topped the list of global threats to health, and avian influenza poses a particularly serious concern.

Dear American media:
“This is something Americans have always known even if sometimes we neglect it—nothing is more important to democracy than holding the powerful accountable”
-author Chris Pavone speaking through fictional journalist Pete Wagstaff in Two Nights In Lisbon.
(Great book-hard to put down -Pavone writes the female main character like he really knows women and can see the world through their eyes—a bit rare in male novelists.)
@Snowshadow right?!
Our political cartoonists are often the "canary in the coal mine". #truths

«
Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot.
