“Internment. Mandatory medication. Segregation of whole sections of society. Mass sackings. A drumbeat media consensus. The systematic censoring of dissent. The deliberate creation by the state and the press of a climate of fear and suspicion. What could possibly justify this?”
“Covid-19 is a nasty illness which should be taken seriously, especially by those especially vulnerable to it. But it is nowhere near dangerous enough - if anything could be - to justify the creation of a global police state.”

So it’s rational to ask if it’s just a pretext.
“As for the [waxings] - well, let's just acknowledge that [waxination] has become a subject which it is virtually impossible to discuss with any calmness or clarity, at least in public.”

And this is in ‘free countries’, ‘democracies’…
“And when we witness an active state/media campaign against early treatment of a disease, along with a refusal to report any of the mounting evidence of side-effects, it ought to be clear that something is happening which cannot be explained by the story we are being told.”
“For all these reasons and more, I have not been vaccinated against covid, and don’t plan to be. This does not make me ‘anti-vax’ - a category designed to feed into the culture war narrative which separates the good from the bad people, and leads both sides to demonise the other”
“In the last month alone I’ve watched media commentators calling for censorship of political opponents, philosophy professors justifying mass internment, human rights lobby groups remaining silent about ‘vaccine passports’, and countless ‘liberals’ campaigning against liberty.”
“As freedom after freedom has been taken away, I have watched intellectual after intellectual justify it all. I have been reminded of what I always knew: cleverness has no relationship to wisdom.”
“Across the world we are seeing an unprecedented claim to control staked by the forces of the state, in alliance with the forces of corporate capital, over your life and mine. All of it converges on the revealed symbol of our age: the smartphone-enabled QR code…”
“Amongst the vast flock of contested facts that wheel around this virus like a murmuration of starlings, darkening the skies, addling the mind, one stands out. It is the fact that these vaccines, whatever their efficacy in other areas, do not prevent transmission of the virus.”
“This single fact - which has long been known but is barely ever mentioned - blows apart the case for vaccine passports, segregation, lockdowns of the 'unvaxxed' and all such similar measures.”
“We’re being herded into a future in which scanning a code to prove you’re an obedient member of society will be a permanent feature of life. Soon we could be living in a world in which the state has taken full charge of our bodies…”
“In eighteen months we have moved smoothly from ‘two weeks to flatten the curve’ to ‘mandatory injections to avoid prison.’ We have normalised this, and accepted it. We have not asked questions. Those who have dissented have been censored, silenced, bullied and abused.”
Yet “huge numbers of people have taken to the streets to say the same thing: enough. As the pressure builds, the explosions begin - widespread walkouts and strikes in the USA, hundreds of thousands of people across Europe & round the world have begun to take to the streets…”

In an open letter, an employee of German public broadcaster ARD for 12 years is critical of one and a half years of Corona coverage: Ole Skambraks claims these questions do not get the attention they should ... 0/

1. Why do we know so little about “gain of function research” (which aims at making viruses more dangerous to humans)?
2. Why does the new Infection Protection Act state that the basic right to bodily integrity and the inviolability of one’s home may be restricted henceforth – even without an epidemic situation?

Having been astonished lately to find a seemingly anti-censorship organisation - @IndexCensorship - publishing defamatory nonsense *advocating* censorship, it is an intellectual relief, if a serious ethical & political concern, to learn it's spook-fed.

It's part of a wider problem: 'The infiltration & manipulation of press freedom & human rights groups by the intelligence services is merely an extension of the cold war efforts to ensure that they remain largely ineffective & steer any campaign into safe, apolitical liberalism.'
Edward Said reflected on the wider problem of 'the insidious intellectual abuses of American power' in this book review from 1999:

Craig Murray should not be in prison.
Craig Murray has spent his life courageously standing for what is right. He does not stand alone. Image
Good news under the circumstances - circumstances that would never have arisen in a society worthy of being called just or democratic.

The big question here is: Why is CIJA (Commission for International Justice and Accountability) mounting an elaborate sting operation on the citizen investigator?
Here are McKeigue's statement and earlier questions to CIJA director: syriapropagandamedia.org/personal-state…
bbc.co.uk/news/uk-565256…
CIJA - and Tsamota, a group of companies with the same director - were previously investigated by European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF). CIJA has been funded by several governments, including UK.
In the news last year:
CIJA's operation has also been investigated by @MaxBlumenthal and @BenjaminNorton for Grayzone, who found it 'collaborated with al-Qaeda to wage lawfare on Syria'.

Why have upwards of 20 articles been produced attacking those of us who are questioning important aspects of UK propaganda operations? Several of these are by Dominic Kennedy (listed in Integrity Initiative documents) for the Times.
off-guardian.org/2020/10/06/the…
The Times's first hit on the the Working Group - by Kennedy & colleagues - was the very morning US, UK and France were bombing Syria in response to the allegations of a chemical attack on Douma.
Three years on, distinguished and honourable public figures are expressing their deep concern at how the OPCW report on Douma was nobbled by those whose justification for the bombing is challenged by the truth.
