After being snubbed by Germany and NATO, Poland has a huge shopping list of military arms that they would like to purchase from South Korea, worth tens of billions of dollars. Not mentioned in the article below, Korean media is also reporting Poland wants up to 44 F50A light fighter jets developed by KAI.
Despite all the stupid domestic and American naysayers of the recent past who now remain completely silent, the South Korean defense industry is rapidly rising in its international status. It’s becoming more and more a very important export industry comparable to such as the semiconductor industry.
UNEXPEXTEDLY, various airlines operating out of Newark, NJ, are suddenly needing to cancel thousands of flights over the Juneteenth holiday weekend.
Apparently, they have not hired enough pilots, flight crews, and ground crews to make up for those forced out over not getting the jab, retirements, illnesses, and normal employee attrition.
Of course, they’re calling it weather-related. Like they always have.

If it is just one location for the flight cancellations, it likely is weather related (or if it is a staff shortage it would be something more stationary like rampers or air traffic control rather than flight crew). I know flights were cancelled in Albuquerque, NM yesterday because of a fire.
OTOH, longterm there is definitely a pilot shortage problem. They’re lowering the number of hours needed to apply to the majors and they will likely extend the age of retirement out to 67 or 68.
They’ve bought back the un-jabbed people, but there is definitely a large number of flight crew with heart problems and related issues. My spouse flew with a person who works with the disability (people applying for it) and he said the rates are much higher than average now. Might also be covid, not necessarily vaccines. Might also be a bit of both.

I was blessed to never be wounded (visible or not) while in service.
It happening again. Edwards AFB just upgraded its HPCON to “B” due to “increased risks in the community”. Increased risk of what they didn’t say, but I think we all can take a guess. Scorpions?
Meanwhile … (below abstracted from Mercola dot com)
– In recent weeks, media outlets around the world have started highlighting a medical phenomenon called “sudden adult death syndrome,” or SADS, in what appears to be a clear effort to obscure the reality of COVID jab deaths.
– Underlying factors for SADS include undiagnosed myocarditis, inflammatory conditions and other conditions that cause irregularities in the electrical system of the heart, thereby triggering cardiac arrest
– While SADS has been known to occur previously, what’s new is the prevalence of this previously rare event. In Australia, the Melbourne Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute is setting up a new SADS registry “to gain more information” about the phenomenon
– Data compiled by the International Olympic Committee show 1,101 sudden deaths in athletes under age 35 between 1966 and 2004, giving us an average annual rate of 29, across all sports. Meanwhile, between March 2021 and March 2022 alone — a single year — at least 769 athletes have suffered cardiac arrest, collapse, and/or have died on the field, worldwide
So, Mercola tries to steer the reader into thinking things like this are due to the bax-sheen. I think these events are all just a coincidence, and more likely due to climate change.
After all, the FDA, CDC, NIH, and WHO along with Pfizer and Moderna are here to protect us, right? If these shots were actually causing deaths, they’d tell us, right?

I’d like to know how highly vaccinated countries compare in “SADS” rates with countries that have lower jab rates. It’s kind of hard to tell if the symptoms are from covid itself (which pretty much everyone has had now, jabbed or no) or the jabs, or a combination.
It is definitely true that pilot communities (high jab rates) are experiencing higher than average heart related disability issues and/or death rates. But I’m not sure how that compares to the community at large. Might be higher for everyone.

This guy blocked me on twitter for asking the above question. He couldn’t stand to have the vaccine questioned, even when I acknowledged it might not be the vaccine. I just want to see it studied. He couldn’t stand to have an insider explain that disability applications in the airline biz have increased substantially.
He says he was a former Navy pilot.
It annoyed me.

Liz, I wish death in the vaccinated.
“But but but ChickenHead, how could you wish such a thing?”
Because the vaccinated (mostly) are not human. They don’t think like humans or reason like humans. They don’t display the motivations, set the goals, make observations, recognize patterns… or any of the other behaviors that sets humans above beasts.
This is fine. Snakes aren’t human and I don’t wish death on them.
But if a snake were to come into my bed and try to bite me, I might wish death on it.
And the vaccinated have tried to bite me.
Apart from society-destroying malignancy and mismanagement in response to covid, the vaccinated, for some fucking reason, want me to be vaccinated too. They are willing to restrict my social life and limit my food buying to do it.
Red line, àssholes.
Now you can all die in a fire… or more likely, a percentage of you can die from heart issues and possibly increased rates of cancer.
But how are they not human?
I have had this conversation many times…
“Covid was rough so I sure am glad I am vaccinated.”
“Wait. You are saying the vaccine is a failure but you are glad to have it?”
“It’s not a failure.”
“You just said you are vaccinated but had coivd. In what metric is that not failure.”
“They never said you wouldn’t catch covid. They said it would keep you out of the hospital and keep you from dying.”
“First, healthy people in your demographic didn’t die or go to the hospital before the vaccine even existed.”
Stupid look… thoughtful for a second… then stupid again.
“Second, they DID say the vaccine would stop you from catching covid.”
“No they didn’t.”
“OK, see if any of this sounds familiar…
– two shots and back to normal
– 98.4% effective
– breakout infections are extremely rare”
Stupid look again.
“Well, I don’t want to talk about it.”
“So you bought into one lie to be a test subject for an experimental medical procedure and now you are buying into another lie so you won’t kick yourself for a bad decision.”
“I don’t want to talk about it. I only listen to experts.”
And these are the “people” who want to force some sort of crazy, ineffective, possibly dangerous medical experiments off on me?
This is not even rational behavior… even in terms of complete selfishness. It’s like they came down with something that affected their brain like a crazy cat lady who touched a little too much infected cat shìt.¹
There appears to be some ways to increase resistance to the potential vaccine side effects but these non-humans will die before admitting they were tricked. Good.
So I can no longer see the vaxtards as human. They are clearly something cognitively less.

How about a quick Ukraine War/World War update.
…because we sure aren’t getting this information from the news.
Kaliningrad is that little part of Russia on the Baltic sea between Poland and Lithuania.
Well… Lithuania just cut it off from mainland Russia (via Belarus)… banning transit of EU sanctioned good such as coal, metals, construction materials and advanced technology.
Russia is approaching cautiously… but is suggesting maybe this is close to an act of war… and maybe requires a response if not quickly reversed (which it won’t be) as Russia feels it violates post-Soviet legal agreements and threatens its national interests.
Lithuania is a NATO member… so that gives everyone pause.
But it is clear that NATO is going to keep turning the screw until Russia has to respond.
Then it is World War… 3 or 4 depending on how you consider the cold war.
Bonus: Belarus would like nothing more than to invade Lithuania and warcrime everyone there.
We are really, really close to NATO vs Russia/Belarus in open conflict and nobody knows. This should be headlines. Your propaganda outlets… er… news outlets are not serving you well.
Double Bonus: China will attack Taiwan the moment war in Europe breaks out.
Triple Bonus: the only way to foil all this is a coup against Zelensky and an unconditional surrender.
We are on the brink and nobody knows.
Enjoy your 5 dollar coffee and 5 dollar gas while wondering which booster to get next.
I figure I go to some Affirmative Action bureaucrat’s office door with my back to the camera while he is watching ladyboy pr0n, or whatever government workers do when they aren’t completely fücking off.

Keep your body language humble and surprised.
Once you are down, “ᵀʰᵃᵗ ᵃˡˡ ʸᵒᵘ ᵍᵒᵗ, ᵇᵒʸˀ”
Because, let’s face it, those kicks to the head are worth like a million dollars each.
…later that year…
“I just asked him where the bathroom was, your honor. He just attacked me. And once down, I begged him to stop. I don’t remember exactly but I think he said, ‘Here in Black MAGA Country, we ask for Trump, not bathrooms.'”
“We find in favor of the plaintiff in the amout of 28 million dollars.”

I’m not sure people who suggest that know how often those drones crash. They need to work some bugs out first. Also, those drones do have pilots, the pilots are just operating on the ground.
