223- Another trip to Belfast
🇪🇸 🇬🇧 We are back in Belfast again - another unplanned trip. Unfortunately a family member has had an injury and we are here to help ensure that proper support is organised for the recuperation. Thanks to all the family friends who are also helping and supporting.
Compared to the quality of healthcare that V and I have personally experienced around the world, the service here can only be described as abominable - it cannot be acceptable to say "we do not do personal care or cleaning" to patients who are in pain to move have spent more than a day in Accident & Emergency department and spent the night on a trolley in the corridor. I have another friend who is experiencing something similar with a family member as well.
There are a few caring individuals in the staff but they are extinguished by the overwhelming bureaucracy of the system that treats people like tickets to be progressed through various SOPs, requiring them to be glued to their phones and computer terminals like some sort of perverse social media game. The entire system has been dehumanised. To those who will defend NHS, I can only say "wake up and get real".
It has been a busy week and there is still plenty to do. We are still here a few more days. The recovery will take time and we do plan to be back again in a few weeks for a longer stay during the summer time.
One of the benefits of our stage of life is that we can be flexible. I will also take every opportunity to do what is important for us every day. As a reminder, you should be well aware of Steve Jobs' 2005 commencement address - if not, check here and particularly part 3.
So it is that this week I was happy to be able to join the annual golf day of my former school. I have never played a round of golf in my life and that is certainly one of the reasons why I knew that I had to explore life outside Northern Ireland. Even so, it's good to get another chance to meet up with former school colleagues and other survivors. So what are your plans? Let me know!
Interview of the week
This week Hrvoje did one of his best and most important interviews. Do take time to click below and read the summary or listen to the discussion. Martin's experience and research is fascinating - especially the story both he and Hrvoje have encountered with Tatiana Stella (director of the Streit Council) which likely was to silence them.

I am not a fan of Christian Apologetics but he does research significantly wider and deeper on many topics and some of his findings should really make you think. Remember the Ethical Skeptic mindset - I am sure you will not agree with all they say but you need to take on board the findings of decades of thorough and comprehensive research - and remember that in these matters: "there are no coincidences".
All of this corroborates, supports and expands on what we already knew from The Report from Iron Mountain. Be in no doubt - this is what the Empire is planning and executing - that is what you see all around you today.
TLDR: War is not merely an instrument of policy but a fundamental social system for societal control. The report argues that economic, political and social systems are subordinate to the war system, which provides critical functions that would collapse without it.
Key Conclusions:
- Lasting peace is theoretically possible but practically undesirable because it threatens societal stability
- The war system must be maintained and improved until viable substitutes are developed
- Any substitute must involve a "believable life-and-death threat" to preserve social order
- The findings should remain secret to avoid "crisis in public confidence"
The report chillingly recommends that governments continue planning for "optimum" annual casualties in warfare while developing these substitutes—concluding that war, or something indistinguishable from it, remains absolutely necessary for human societies.

Around Belfast this week
🛠️ Project Updates
Being busy this week I did not have much time for project work - other than server maintenance on some locally running systems. The updates below are mainly informational but you will certainly benefit from such skills, knowledge and activities. What are you doing?
How did it all start?
Some of you were intrigued by Foci's 6-month update last week. For those who were asking - this is how he got started. He certainly looks younger and more innocent. Listen, learn and then give it a go yourself.

And the next level
This one is indeed, "next level". You will be amazed at what tools are available and how Foci masters and explains all these things. You might even be intrigued enough to give some of these a try-out yourself.

On a more serious note
You may have noticed (or even wondered why) things tend to turn out the way you imagine them. People also tend to turn out the way that you see them; if you think they are "idiots and bl**dy nuisance" that is exactly what they will be to you.

Non marketable securities - do you see it yet?
In case you are having difficulties seeing where you are being misled, Sasha explains it step by step, pointing out the relevant lines on the balance sheet. You really should look into this - you will quickly understand how and why the US Stock Market valuations are increasingly unrelated to the proper value of the companies.
If it walks, looks and quacks like a cartel...
- "Pre-planned manoeuvre designed to pump valuations by making up numbers" (line 17–18)
- Potential cartel behaviour: Google and Amazon seem to be coordinating through Anthropic investments (lines 19–20, 152–157)
- Intentional timing deception: Deferring investment to capture gains in earlier quarter (lines 58–69)
- Self-created valuation gains: Google driving up Anthropic's valuation with its own money, then booking the gain as profit (lines 75–84)
- Circular dealing/round-tripping: Same money recycled as investment → revenue → profit (lines 168–172)
- Accounting standards exploitation: Using "gain on equity securities" rules to book self-generated profits (lines 75–82)
Sasha's conclusion: "Google now just gets to decide how much profit they want, however they feel like every quarter."
🤔 Closing Thoughts
I took advantage of being in Northern Ireland this week to take physical delivery of a set of fascinating books. These come from Truth University in the UK and represent years of dedicated research by multiple researchers.
Since it was a busy week I only got to read the first of the books, Plagues, Pandemics and Raging fires. At 60 pages it is an easy afternoon or evening read and it will really open your mind - it is required reading.

Some of you may prefer to listen to the exposition and discussion of this book and quite a few more fascinating topics in James' recent interview with the author, Dr Gloria Moss.
Roger Price
Click for summary and to listen to the interview
Dr Gloria Moss discusses her career as a researcher of cognitive differences between the sexes (how this was actively suppressed) and her advocacy for critical thinking as a defense against authoritarianism.
The interview covers the origins of Pergamon Press founder Robert Maxwell, citing connections to MI6 and questions the integrity of the peer-review system. Evidence from Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and other sources demonstrates that peer review often suppresses innovative research and is ill-suited to identifying impactful ideas.
Drawing on the work of Professor Samuel Cohn, Dr Scott and Dr Duncan, Dr Moss challenges the traditional contagion theory of historical plagues, noting a strong correlation between plague sites and mining locations in Britain. She also discusses research by Carlo Brogna et al. identifying toxin-like peptides in COVID-19 victims and questions the transmission narratives of the Spanish Flu based on experiments by Dr Rosenau.
Dr Rosenau's experiments failed to transmit influenza. Despite multiple aggressive attempts under controlled conditions, the researchers could not successfully infect the healthy volunteers. As one source notes: "Rosenau's and colleagues' experiments proved a full century ago that the most intimate contact was not enough to 'transmit' influenza between people, no matter how sick the flu patients were".
Beyond that she also highlights research demonstrating that the so-called plagues were not caused by rats or fleas, rather most likely by poisoning of water supplies. She cites many pieces of evidence for this, not least the historical references to smoking and alcohol providing resistance to and recovery from such poisoning.
She, like me and many others, noticed that smokers were remarkably unlikely to be affected by the recent Covid plandemic. This would certainly seem to be due to well demonstrated effect of nicotine on inhibiting such poisons. All of this is confirmed by objective analysis of mortality over the period.
You will also understand that fires on a grand scale (London 1666, Stockholm 1625, Northampton 1675, Warwick 1694 and many more) seem to share many identical attributes that are beyond coincidence. You might recognise the same playbook being used recently in California 2024, Lahaina, Maui in Aug 2025, Pallisades in Jan 2025 and many more. Fires like this are used as part of a societal reset - that of London was used to eliminate and reset debt and the wealth of the population, not least through the establishment of the Cestui Que Vie legislation.
