The C19 Shot Is 'the Biggest Biological Pharmaceutical Safety Disaster in the History of Mankind'
"Many tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, and potentially millions of people have lost their lives with the vaccine," grieved Dr. McCullough.
"This will go down as the biggest biological pharmaceutical safety disaster in the history of mankind — by a mile. This will go down worse than most wars in terms of mortality."
Dr. Peter McCullough is one of the most published cardiologists ever in America and is now serving as the Chief Scientific Officer for The Wellness Company.

A protest against an international privatisation conference at Dublin's Burlington hotel turned violent when the Gardai (Irish police) attacked protesters with batons. They were aided by a number of non uniformed men armed with sticks and torches, some of who may have been political police (Special Branch) but others appeared to be private security.
One of the non uniformed men attacked photographers including this reporter, attempting to smash their cameras to the ground. Under the attack the protesters retreated out of the hotel car park and down the street. At least twelve were arrested and at least two protesters received head wounds. The one pictured below appears to be the less serious of the two.
After I gave my camera to someone else to take care of I returned to demand the name of the person who had tried to smash it. At this stage he was at the centre of a group of uniformed Gardai. Some of these had removed their numbers from their uniforms.

Some 1,000 people gathered on St Stephens Green to
party in Dublin's' Reclaim the Streets event, coinciding with European car
free day (not that
you would
know it
was that in Dublin!). According to
one participant: "The day has been good so far. It's been a good turnout
and the cops have been well behaved. RTS is a self organised space,
everyone can play a part and not just consume. It's about empowerment and
having a good time."
The party was preceded by a
Critical
Mass
. Unlike last year's
car free
day
which a saw a number of arrests or the Mayday RTS which saw a
Garda
riot, the Gardai were peaceful.
This was despite some over excitable
media
build up.

Some IMC contributors
paid a visit to one of Fine Gael's forums on the Nice Treaty at
which Peter Sutherland - in reply to an IMC question about the
complexities of Article 133 of the Treaty - gave a very honest
answer. "He kindly confirmed that the General Agreement on Trade
and Services can be ratified post-Nice without ever being debated
in, much less subject to the approval of, a National or European
parliament or any other form of democratic institution." In the
course of his answer he mentioned three groups - the EU Commission,
The Council of Ministers and the Article 133 Committee as being the
groups with the combined power to sign the EU as a whole up to GATS.
When did anyone ever vote for one of these groups? They are all
appointees rather than elected representatives. And who are the 133
Committee anyway? Try Google. You will get more info from a simple
search about this shadowy group than the EU will ever give
you. Article continues hereRead

Boats from Ireland, Wales, England and the Isle of Man joined Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior to meet two BNFL ships carrying 255 Kg of Mixed Oxide (MOX) nuclear fuel which had been rejected by the company's Japanese customers. After meeting in Holyhead the boats split into two groups, one heading north to wait for the BNFL ships in Barrow, close to the Sellafield facility, and the other heading south to meet the ships on the high seas. Both groups were successful and their message of protest was delivered loud and clear.
While the Flotilla was preparing to deliver a message to the MOX ships, activists staged a land-based protest by chaining themselves to the roof of the Sellafield visitors centre. Earlier a 40-strong group organised by Gluaiseacht travelled to Sellafield to voice their opposition to the plant.
Recent weeks have seen huge difficulties for BNFL and the British nuclear industry. British Energy, Britain's main operator of nuclear power stations, is effectively bankrupt while BNFL's biggest customer for it's MOX business, Tokyo Electric, has been found to be falsifying safety data and has suspended its MOX programme indefinitely. Meanwhile a MORI opinion poll indicates that 72% of the British public want government subsidies to go to Wind and renewable energy and not to the nuclear industry.
The success of the flotilla action and the corporate media attention that it generated has highlighted the problems that BNFL is facing and has boosted the spirits of anti-Sellafield activists. Further actions against Sellafield are already being discussed and planned, and the struggle against Sellafield and the British nuclear industry is likely to intensify in the months ahead.
