Build Back Better – can you believe it?

There’s a lot of arson about. Dozens of fires have broken out simultaneously across Canada. The gov is doing little about it — it has barely investigated arson, but it has rejected offers of help from retired firemen and foresters. The prime minister blames it all on climate change: “We’re seeing more and more of these fires because of climate change.”
This is because it serves the euphemistically-named Sustainable Development Goals. That is precisely what Trudeau says, using circular logic: “The SDG goals are what is necessary to build a successful planet. Full stop.” A textbook example of tautology.
Every pocket politician — from Chuck Schumer to Jagmeet Singh — has lined up to quoth the narrative. Like cawing ravens.
It is also an example of the end justifies the means: even if you burn down the country, or allow it to be burned down, in order to introduce a collectivist Green future, you had to demolish something to “build back better.”
The World Economic Forum which promotes the Great Reset names Trudeau and Canada’s cabinet among its most trusted servitors.
People, be scared, said the bouffant one in a television interview, repeatedly. “There is anxiety about the future that we have not seen at this level before” about climate, food and fuel shortages.
War has returned to Europe because authoritarians are trying to undermine our freedoms, says Trudeau. “That is why, as much as it takes; as long as it takes.”
Over in Ukraine, even while people are being killed, dozens of companies are building the collectivist Green future. In other words, Ukrainians are being fed the idea of a Green future as the only alternative to war and death: the same dialectic in countries that sustain the war.
A Ukrainian soldier breaks down and curses his government.
For collectivisation it is necessary for the people not only to obey but to embrace the official story as their own story. Many people already believe whatever they’re told — they are anxious and scared, and it is because of climate change and war. But that is not enough fear.
In the U.S. the Department of Homeland Security has awarded a grant of almost $750,000 to — wait for it — the Polarization & Extremism Research & Innovation Lab (PERIL).
The American penchant for anagrams always gives the game away.
The head of this unit is an academic who serves on an advisory board of the Southern Poverty Law Center, one of whose managers was arrested in connection with an arson attack on a police training centre in Atlanta earlier this year. PERIL will produce videos aimed at teens to “inoculate them” against violent extremism.
Fire, fire
The official story of the Great Fire of London is still trotted out. Bear in mind that it was the Great Reset of 1666 — financially and in terms of the state’s creeping control of individuals.
The supply of water from the Islington reservoir was closed off on Sep 1, the day before the fire began. Prior to the rebuilding of London, Pudding Lane had been only one street from the Thames, so access to water should not have been an issue.
Baker Thomas Farriner was blamed for the fire breaking out in his ovens but he died only four years later, still protesting his innocence. An employee of the navy, Farriner said the fire was “absolutely set on purpose” and the Lord Chancellor, Edward Hyde, told Charles II that there was “a universal conclusion that this fire came not by chance.”
The minister Thomas Vincent said the fire moved strangely, against the wind (which came from the east to the west) and yet the fire spread east from the Tower of London, and north from Pudding Lane. The diarist John Evelyn noted the same.
Vincent was surprised that St Paul’s cathedral, at the time the third largest in Europe, isolated in its own territory, lacking any neighbouring buildings and built of stone yet caught fire from the top, not the bottom.
Until it was partially erased in 1830, the monument to the fire stated:
“This pillar was set up in perpetual remembrance of the most dreadful burning of this Protestant city, begun and carried on by the treachery and malice of the Popish faction, in the beginning of September, in the year of our Lord MDCLXVI, in order to the effecting their horrid plot for the extirpating the Protestant religion and English liberties, and to introduce Popery and slavery.”
Thus it was widely thought at the time that the fire was a plot. The blaming of Popery may have been a misdirection. To “introduce slavery” cannot be misconstrued.
After the plague of 1665 and the fire the government passed the Cestui Que Vie Act 1666 creating trusts that claim corporate ownership of persons, leaving us with Admiralty law.
The author has been fascinated by the fire since an exhibition at the Greenwich museum about Samuel Pepys’ chronicle of the events.
Professor Gloria Moss, to whom most of the above findings are credited, points out that Christopher Wren went abroad only once in his life — in 1665, to Paris, the year before the fire — where he spent most of his time studying the work of French and Italian architects and domed buildings in particular. By Spring of 1666 he already had permission to build a dome on the medieval cathedral.... and with the work underway, the roof was already covered in pitch tar. [1]
The aldermen who did nothing to stop the fire (according to Pepys) had within four days formed a committee to build back better.
Information was suppressed at the time. All unauthorised accounts of the fire were banned, and the Privy Council ordered destroyed a pamphlet in 1667 that could have been presented to the Commons inquiry into the fire.
Tenants were obliged to pay the rent even if a property was destroyed, and to reimburse the landlord for any damage. They were forced to pay by parliament which in Jan 1667 declared the fire was not a malicious act, ensuring that the cost lay with the tenants.
Bring out yer…
Seven hundred years ago there was a plague. The Chinese were blamed, and it was used as the occasion for a Great Reset.
History does not repeat, but it rhymes.
The plague would reappear from time to time and there was another significant outbreak in 1665, particularly affecting London.
Given that the Fire of London now appears to have been orchestrated by banking interests, it really does start to look suspicious.
When Covid rolled around, the press made much of a mass grave of 48 skeletons in Thornton Abbey, Lincolnshire, that was found, conveniently, in Feb 2020. [2]
The Smithsonian got in on the action Mar 2021, writing of the "transformative pandemic." [3]
Several points are central to understanding the Black Death. There is no evidence that all deaths were caused by bubonic plague, though Yersinia pestis bacteria has been found in some corpses. The bacteria may have been endemic or parallel. The attack may have been deliberate and biological, as one 14th century account by the Genoese Gabriele de’ Mussi asserted.
He said Mongols laying siege to the Italian-run, Crimean port of Kaffa, hurled their own dead over the city walls. This does not explain how the Mongol forces themselves became infected. [4]
Crimea came under attack by the Mongols periodically from the 1230s and the city of Kaffa in 1343-47. The battle between the Mongols and Genovese inhabitants was triggered by ethnic rivalry and trade. Could rather the water supply have been poisoned?
A former field archaeologist at the Museum of London, Barry Sloane, author of “The Black Death In London” (2011) said there is no evidence of a massive die off of rats... and that fleas cannot be blamed as the plague peaked during the winter when the presence of fleas is low.
That in turn tends to rule out bubonic plague. Many other things can spread by human transmission, says James Wood of Penn State University, The presence of Yersinia pestis does not mean it was the killer. [5]
Narrative
This is not a story of motive. The evidence is all around us, should we care to see.
Some researchers allege that the Black Plague of the 1340s-50s was not natural but was spread — medicine was a tightly controlled profession even then. Apothecary is an old English term for one who distributes “materia medica.” The word is apotheker in German and Dutch but the profession goes back millennia. In our epoch it originated in Babylon.
“I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal” (Deuteronomy 32:39) said the Lord through His servant Moses.
Priests were not usually doctors; though curiously “Moses assigned to them [priests] only the task of police supervision in cases of contagious diseases.” Pandemics? [6]
The physic garden was central to medicine, and Arab and Jewish doctors were often employed by kings (for example, James II of Aragon [died 1327). [7]
An extant example is Chelsea Physic Garden in London, near the church attended by Thomas More.
Christians at the time would flock to Canterbury and the shrine of Saint Thomas à Becket. The city had several hospitals attached to the Church which dispensed faith, as well as schooling — Christopher Marlowe was their pupil — and relics played an important role.
What that meant is that of plants and poisons — for all medicines are poisons intended to kill in some degree, as Paracelsus (1493–1541) said, the dose differentiates a poison from a remedy — such knowledge was held tightly.
In our era William Avery “Devil Bill” Rockefeller Sr. (1810 –1906) was a herbalist and con artist, and patriarch of the family. Without his exploits and the kerosene he sold as snake oil, the family would not have built their oil business, much less become today’s dynasty.
Many medicines today are made from oil, by cracking petrochemicals, and that’s how the Rockefellers became by the mid-1900s the owners of most of the world’s pharmaceutical businesses.
But the process had to be refined — the best experiments were on real live humans. Many count the “Spanish flu” (1918-1919) as one of those experiments.
Then they experimented quite openly in Nazi Germany — the Rockefellers employed Joseph Mengele and financed the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute — and afterwards imported those scientists into the U.S. and we got the postwar vaccine industry.
An excellent book is “Dr. Mary's Monkey: How the Unsolved Murder of a Doctor, a Secret Laboratory in New Orleans and Cancer-Causing Monkey Viruses are Linked to Lee Harvey Oswald, Assassination and Emerging Global Epidemics” — an heroic title and a good read by Edward T. Haslam.
What’s your point?
When you watch a football game, and I tell you a sports narrative that conflicts with what you saw at the stadium, you would call BS.
We see the press speak with one voice. We see government agencies commandeer universities and social media companies to coordinate censorship. We remarked that it looked almost like the military had taken control of the press as in wartime.
And now we know it has.
The spinelessness on display from politicians is as clear as the ease with which they abandoned their role as tribunes of the people. Except for a few noble cases, such as the UK’s Andrew Bridgen MP and Sen Ron Johnson in the U.S..

Didn't know this! Quite a twisted web. These people are pure evil.
I know Russia and China are not our saviors, but let's hope we are on the threshold of a new paradigm that these ancient cultures will bring with their different ethos. We are totally bankrupt as a cultural force and offer nothing to the world. The rest of the world is sick of us and our history of divide and conquer mentality.
Reading Cynthia Chung's essay today on a history of Iran and its oil tribulations show how perfidious the British are. On the surface the combined west is all multifaceted and glossy, but inside the structure is a rotten corpse stinking up the place.
A fascinating history. Many thanks.
