Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.

And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.

In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

offsite link Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Sat Nov 01, 2025 00:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.

Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.

In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.

Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

A comprehensive study by leading pediatric scientists has confirmed that the devastating surge in heart failure among children is caused by Covid mRNA shots.

The peer-reviewed study, published in the prestigious journal Med, was conducted by scientists at the University of Hong Kong.

The team, led by Dr. Hing Wai Tsang, Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, School of Clinical Medicine, the University of Hong Kong, uncovered evidence to confirm that Natural Killer (NK) cell activation by Covid mRNA injections causes the pathogenesis of acute myocarditis.

Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that restricts the body?s ability to pump blood.

No Galway Discussions over Proposed Arts' Plan

category galway | arts and media | news report author Tuesday September 01, 2009 03:31author by Fred Johnston Report this post to the editors

Hopes Dashed for Face-to-Face Consultations - so what is City Hall afraid of?

Galway's arts practitioners were promised consultation over any proposed Arts Strategy Plan - but Galway City Arts Office has put the clamps on it and curiously instructed the person brought on board to assist with the arts' strategy that she is not to meet individually with artists or practitioners

A respected and highly experienced arts practitioner and organiser, Sarah Searson's role in Galway was expected to be that of a fresh ear willing to meet face-to-face with artists and arts' practitioners to bring about an acceptable Arts Plan, a Plan the city hasn't been able so far to produce.

But in a letter from Ms Searson this evening by e-mail I am informed that: "I won't be in a available to meet with you individually, as this is not part of my agreed role with the City Council to meet with their clients individually. If you have specific questions, or concerns the City Arts Officer would be the correct channel through which to address these. . . . . . .

If there are other points that you feel are important to make, we would also welcome these by email. "

This will be seen by more than one group as highly disappointing and unsatisfactory. One must ask what sort of arrangement could possible have determined that the City Council Arts Office would not permit her to meet face-to-face with individuals artists. It is impossible to see how anyone or any group can express their views freely on how the arts are run in Galway to Ms Searson without now being aware that these may be discussed with the Galway City Arts Officer, who has already opposed vigorously the development of one major arts' group in the city.

A longed-for independent assessment of the arts in Galway city has thus been prevented. One can only ask why. The City Councillors remain mute on the topic. As does The Arts Council.
