Quote:Biden Admin Sells Federal Helium Reserve, Threatening US Industry & National Security

The US government is selling off the Federal Helium Reserve, which is a large subterranean stockpile located in Amarillo, Texas.

The Helium stockpile provides up to 30% of the nation's reserves of this rare element with critical purposes for the medical field, industrial manufacturing, and national security.

The top bidder will own about 425 miles of pipelines spanning Texas, Kansas, and Oklahoma, as well as around 1 billion cubic feet of the only element on Earth cold enough to make an MRI machine operate.

NBC News reports that, "Regulatory and logistical issues with the facility threaten a temporary shutdown as it passes from public to private ownership, and hospital supply chain experts worry the sale could have serious consequences for health care down the road — especially when it comes to MRIs."

"The sale of the government’s stockpile of the nonrenewable element could exacerbate an existing supply shortage," medical industry expert Soumi Saha  told NBC News.

Indeed, Helium is vital not only to the medical field for use in MRIs, but it has critical use for cryogenics, semiconductors, superconductors, and rocket technology.

The Impact of Selling the Federal Helium Reserve from the  National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (2000) discusses "The Impact of Selling the Federal Helium Reserve." https://doi.org/10.17226/9860.

CRYOGENICS

"The largest current use of helium is for cryogenics. The amount of helium used for cryogenics was about 620 million scf (17 million scm) in 1996. The main cryogenic applications to be discussed in this section are magnetic resonance imaging, semiconductor processing, and large-scale and small-scale fundamental research that requires helium temperatures."

MRI

"The main medical use of liquid helium is for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. Liquid helium is needed as a refrigerant for the superconducting magnets that are critical components in many of these devices. The availability of helium at a favorable price and the stability of the helium market have contributed to the rapid growth of MRI as a diagnostic tool and have allowed it to make a significant contribution to health care in the United States."

SEMICONDUCTORS

"Silicon wafer suppliers are the primary users of helium in the semiconductor industry... activities in the industry that use helium are plasma etching and vacuum pumping..."

"[I]t is very important to this key industry. An increase in the price of helium could be accommodated, but if helium were to disappear altogether, semiconductor processing would be severely hampered."

ROCKET PROPULSION SYSTEMS

"Helium plays a unique and critical role in the pressurizing and purging of primary rocket propulsion systems. It will continue to do so as long as the propellant is a combination of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. First, helium gas is used to pressurize the propellant tanks for the engines. In this application, pressure is provided to prevent pump cavitation and must be sufficient to keep the tanks from collapsing under vehicle-imposed structural loads. Pressure-fed propulsion systems are also used to provide engine-chamber pressurization. Second, helium gas is used for the purging of the propellant feed systems for liquid-hydrogen engines. Helium is used because its normal boiling point is lower than that of hydrogen. Thus it is the only element that can be used without compromising propellant integrity or feed-system function. Other gases would freeze, producing particles that could clog equipment and seize an engine, or react with or dissolve in the liquid hydrogen, reducing engine efficiency, all with potentially disastrous results."

Thus, the Biden administration by selling off its Federal Helium Stockpile is undermining U.S. industrial manufacturing vital to National Security and the medical field.

As a political backdrop, the Biden action targets Texas, which is currently locked in a standoff with the federal government over border security.

On Friday, the Biden administration announced that it is considering a freeze on Liquefied Natural Gas exports, which would seriously damage the U.S. economy, and most severely, Texas' economy.

Montana? Holy Shit the insanity is everywhere.

Yeah, it is getting bad when a gang of migrants attacks cops in open daylight in times square.

AND

Of course these peaceful asylum seekers were released instead of deported immediately.

New York TV News:

I know I've been sort of AWOL from this board (or any boards for that matter) for a while. To be honest, I've just been so disgusted with humanity in general that it felt useless to say anything. But, this damn brain of mie simply cannot stop running (birth defect) and a week or so ago I managed to out together some clues to what is going on behind the scenes.

I speak of the planned-demic that affected the world in 2020 and 2021.

The whole thing never made sense to me. A virus from Wuhan China got loose and caused a major panic in that area. China shut down all domestic flights into and out of Wuhan... but not International flights! Entire families were being devastated while Chinese authorities took drastic, draconian actions against them to deny medical treatment.

Then, of course the virus, which turned out to be extremely contagious, got loose across the globe. World leaders scrambled to get it back under control. The media was reporting it like we were experiencing the Black Plague v2.0. Yet, the actual fatality rates were fairly low... a little higher than the common flu, but certainly nothing to compare with the Bubonic plague or Ebola... or even the Spanish flu. In response to this "unprecedented" emergency, schools were shut down... churches were forbidden to operate... small businesses were forced  to close... people were denied health care... families were forced apart, unable to even attend a funeral for their deceased loved ones... we in the USA literally ripped the very fabric of society asunder.

The methodology to contain and treat this disaster was more of a disaster than the disaster. Andrew Cuomo, in the midst of a general panic over a highly contagious and supposedly incurable and fatal outbreak, forced nursing homes to take in known contagious cases by law! The vast bulk of the early deaths attributable were from nursing home outbreaks, many instigated directly by the same governments that were crying to help. Cuomo even, after requesting a naval medical ship and getting it, abused the resource. The naval ship was never intended to treat Chinese virus cases; it was to treat other cases so the NY medical system could ficus on the virus. But Cuomo intentionally sent known virus cases to the naval ship, despite full knowledge that the ship couldn't offer containment.

That's homicide... no argument can be made to hold water against that statement. Andrew Cuomo is the most prolific mass murderer in US history.

Several things were tried with approval by the various governments in the USA. There was social distancing... which led to building occupancy rates being sharply curtailed to the point that employees were required to maintain a running count of customers in the stores, a daunting task that used so much manpower that smaller stores had to simply close up shop. That concentrated all public shopping into the larger retailers, further fueling congestion at the stores. Now we had long lines waiting to enter a store, sometimes for hours, outside and unprotected from the elements in close proximity to each other, just so they could "social distance" for a few minutes once it was their turn to enter. We tried face masks, my personal pet peeve, which aggravated asthma cases and COPD cases, weakening the immunity of people affected. It also served as a mobile petri dish... people would remove these masks, full of exhaled pathogens, across parking lots, littering the ground with something that, were common sense be used, should have been treated as hazardous medical waste. The result was further exposure to the general public. We tried mandatory quarantine for those who tested positive... not in a controlled facility, but at their home. This meant that anyone required to get a test would spend all their time up to the testing date in town buying supplies to last two weeks... busily contaminating as many people as possible. It also meant that people were loath to even take the test, since the penalty for failing it was so high, leading to who knows how many un-diagnosed cases escaping notice.

At the same time, doctors across the globe were experimenting with different medications to try and somehow save their patients. Hydroxychloroquine was an early medicine that showed promise as part of a cocktail which also included high levels of zinc and vitamin C. Field reports were that it showed success if the disease was caught early. But the CDC then tested it, using hydroxychloroquine alone without the rest of the cocktail, on patients in advanced cases, and summarily determined that it was not just ineffective, but actually dangerous! This despite hydroxychloroquine having a record of safe usage among most patients for 40 years. Eventually it was actually outlawed to treat the virus!

Remdesivir was another drug which showed early promise... but it was similarly attacked. monoclonal antibodies were developed that indeed did help control the virus, but then their availability was curtailed in states which were using them. Why? Something to do with racism if I remember right. We all know that's just a dog whistle general excuse.

Instead, we got a vaccine... unproven technology (although it is now proven to work), rushed through trials, the ingredients hidden behind excuses of too much information to divulge, with blanket legal immunity to the companies that made it, and immediately purchased en masse by the US government. Those purchases were used to provide free vaccinations to as many people as possible. Initial offerings were limited to certain groups, but ask any marketing expert: that is a sure way to create interest among others. As stockpiles filled up, it was released for the general public... then attempts were made to force it onto the general public. Social media was crawling with pleas to please, please, get the vaccine, if not for yourself, then think of Grandma! But that flew in the face of reality... if a vaccine protects the vaccinated, then the only people at risk from the unvaccinated are the unvaccinated!

Many companies required vaccination as a condition of employment. Others offered to drop the face mask requirements for the vaccinated. The military made it a mandate, government programs started talking about mandating it for the retired and disabled, and Biden actually attempted to make it a mandate for the general public.

Notice that while all this is going on, we're still no closer to a treatment... just a vaccine.

Then reports start coming in of people having adverse reactions to the vaccine. They're minimized in the media. They're ridiculed in social media. People fully vaccinated begin to contract the virus in large numbers, in direct opposition to the promises made. The CDC responds by literally changing their definition of a vaccine. Then cases come to light of the vaccinated being hospitalized with the virus, and even dying from the virus. And still, the media downplays the reports and social media laughs at them.

Turns out, the spike protein used to develop immunity is the main problem with the virus! But it only becomes a major problem in the bloodstream, not the lungs. The virus affects the lungs primarily, only entering the bloodstream when the lungs are bleeding, often helped by ventilators. The vaccinations go directly into the bloodstream.

I watched all this unfold before my eyes, trying desperately to understand: WHY? what could the end goal be? Depopulation? Obviously not, because it wasn't working nearly as effective as other methods. A rights grab? I thought that might be feasible for a while, but things have somewhat returned to normal on that front and that's a lot of work to go through when we have been slowly losing our rights anyway. It didn't affect the 2nd Amendment. Maybe to remove a sitting President? OK, but why was it global?

Then i figured it out.

I have long said that when the actions of politicians make no sense in achieving their goal, they are lying about their goal. Politicians are not stupid... they are able to convince over 50% of the voters to vote for them while actively stealing from them. They are good at acting stupid. So if one can figure out what goal is best served by the totality of the actions taken, one has determined the actual goal.

It's not depopulation per se... it's population control.

For many years we have seen the effects of planned obsolescence. Products are literally designed to break as soon as the warranty is out, so more products can be sold. I believe tat is the purpose of both the virus and the vaccine. We know that politicians have been warning us about the insolvency of Social Security, but what they aren't keen on saying is the Social Security is not now, nor has it ever been, insolvent. Nor is it expected to e insolvent in the foreseeable future. It is broke only because the trust fund is full of IOUs from the US Congress, IOUs that were never intended to be repaid. As the amount of liquidity on the Social Security trust fund declines, so does the ability to continue raiding it and, heaven forbid, continue not repaying all that money "borrowed" over the years.

We just saw a major increase in retirement age, along with increases in amount paid into Social Security. Too many of those too soon, and people will become unruly and ask embarrassing questions. So a different approach is needed: kill off the older people, aka the "useless eaters," and simultaneously lower the expected life span of everyone else. The vaccine does that exactly: the elderly generally have weakened immunity to any virus, and the fact that the vaccine can cause heart issues is now a scientific given. The virus was released to cause a panic while eliminating a portion of the elderly, which was then used to drum up public acceptance for the vaccine, which in turn reduces the lifespan of most of the vaccinated. That's why it was quickly distributed to retirement communities; that's why it was aided in spreading by all the "precautions"; that's why the vaccine was pushed so hard.

It also explains the global phenomenon... most countries have some sort of public retirement system, and most of them are experiencing similar problems to those in the USA. All would love to get their hands on that retirement money.

The sad part is, what's now done is now done. Once that vaccine does damage, there's no known way to correct it. The only silver lining I can see is that it doesn't seem to work its voodoo equally... some will die early (already have), some will simply see a shorter lifespan, and some will likely escape without any major consequences. No one know what category they will fall into on that. It's all in the roll of the dice now.

And I'm crawling back into my comfy little hole under the nice rock. Do with this revelation as you will.

You just have to wonder how much longer the Muslims and their sympathizers will let us live in our own native countries ? I suppose the couple was lucky the cop was evidently not a Muslim too.

Quote:Frank Strazdins has spoken out after he was placed under arrest for inciting a riot by having the Australian flag on his head near an Invasion Day protest. Mr Strazdins told Sky News host Andrew Bolt that he was walked off the road, away from the protesters. “My partner ... was in the shop, she had them on her head as well, and we had them on all day," he said. “The police officer said there are 30,000 people out there and this is the problem. “I felt really disappointed, I was gobsmacked as to what happened.”

Of course Biden re-funded them after their free money had been cut off.

Quote:A major United Nations (UN) agency providing humanitarian services for Palestinians has deeper ties to Hamas and other Islamic terrorist organizations than previously realized, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.



Over a thousand UNRWA staff members, roughly 10% of the agency’s total staff, have links to Islamic terrorist organizations, according to U.S. intelligence reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. 

Approximately a dozen UNRWA staff members, many of them primary and secondary school teachers, were involved in the Oct. 7 attacks against Israel that left over 1,200 civilians dead and took hundreds more hostage.


“UNRWA’s problem is not just ‘a few bad apples’ involved in the October 7 massacre,” a senior Israeli official told the WSJ. “The institution as a whole is a haven for Hamas’ radical ideology.”


Out of the dozen UNRWA staffers directly implicated on Friday, six aided Hamas in the terror group’s sweeping attacks against Israel, according to the U.S. intelligence report reviewed by the WSJ. Two UNRWA staffers played a direct role in kidnapping Israeli citizens, two more were traced to the scene where a high number of Israelis were killed, and others played a role in helping plan and coordinate the attack ahead of time.
One of the 12 UNRWA staffers was a Hamas commander and was involved in the attack against Kibbutz Be’eri that killed 97 people and kidnapped over two dozen more, according to the WSJ. Another escaped the scene of the attacks with the dead body of an Israeli soldier.


Approximately 1,200 of the roughly 12,000 total UNRWA Gaza staff are linked to Hamas or Islamic Jihadist terror groups, according to the intelligence report review by the WSJ. Approximately 50% of total UNRWA Gaza staff have close relatives with Hamas and Islamic militant groups.


UNRWA fired the dozen staff members allegedly involved in the Hamas attacks and launched an investigation into the matter on Friday. The Biden administration halted funding for UNRWA after reviewing the intelligence report and alerting the agency about its existence.


“The United States is extremely troubled by the allegations that twelve UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel,” the State Department said in a statement. “The Department of State has temporarily paused additional funding for UNRWA while we review these allegations and the steps the United Nations is taking to address them.”


The Trump administration previously cut funding with UNRWA in 2018 but funding was renewed by the Biden administration in 2021, according to the WSJ.

Over in the Gender Ideology circus clown priorities...The EU has called for 'gendered language' to be axed. It says that 'virile', considered 'strongly associated with only men', should be substituted with 'strong or energetic'. LMAO!

Quote:The EU has called for 'gendered language' such as 'no man's land' and 'Joe Public' to be axed.

A 61-page document advises policymakers, legislators and the media to revise the order of common phrases such as 'King and Queen' or 'brother and sister' in which the male comes first.

It suggests to 'try swapping the order of these phrases sometimes'.

Bureaucrats say 'Joe Public' should be replaced with 'average citizen' and 'no man's land' should be substituted with 'unclaimed territory'.

Tory MP Nick Fletcher has called the guidelines 'nonsense' and argued that the EU had 'far more serious issues' that it should be concerned about.

The 'Toolkit on Gender-sensitive Communication' document compiled by the The European Institute for Gender Equality highlights language that needs to be changed and notes alternatives.

It also notes that terms such as 'shrill' and 'pushy' have 'strong connotations that are strongly associated with only women' and should be replaced with 'high-pitched' and 'assertive' respectively.

It says that 'virile', considered 'strongly associated with only men', should be substituted with 'strong or energetic'.

The famous Star Trek line, 'To boldly go where no man has gone before', is noted in the bundle as an example for which 'women may be subject to invisibility or omission'.

Don Valley MP Nick Fletcher told The Telegraph: 'I think it's nonsense, especially when there's far more serious issues going on at the moment that we need to be concerned about.

'The EU needs to take a good hard look at themselves and think about what other problems are going on in the world at the moment.'

He added: 'We've got wars being waged, an energy crisis and a lot of countries are dealing with the same kind of problems that we are in the UK.

'Things like this are a waste of our time.'

Former Tory MP Ann Widdecombe told The Sun: 'It's ridiculous.'

Nigel Mills, Conservative MP for Amber Valley, told the newspaper: 'This is utter madness. It's an attack on the English language.'

Even though Britain officially left the EU in January 2020, English is still its official language.

Has anyone else heard about this?

Quote:We explore the unexpected and historic move made by China and Turkey to halt all commerce with the United States and the United Kingdom in this video. This audacious decision has profound ramifications for world trade, politics, and the ongoing battle in Yemen. It has sent shockwaves through the global geopolitical landscape. The decision by China and Turkey to impose economic sanctions in favour of the Houthi rebels in Yemen is a significant event that has attracted international notice. It draws attention to the complexity of modern geopolitics, which is characterised by countries like China vying for global dominance and influence. China's and Turkey's geopolitical interests are at the core of the Houthi rebels' backing. Yemen's location along important maritime trade routes, including the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait, and its abundance of natural resources, including oil and natural gas, make it particularly important to China. Supporting the rebels fits with Turkey's regional goals as it pursues a more assertive foreign policy agenda in the Middle East and North Africa. The decision to halt trade with the US and the UK will have a big impact on the world economy. Many countries trade heavily with these two Western giants, so any disruption in trade might have a ripple impact on firms and industries around the globe. It is anticipated that this action will cause supply chain disruptions, affect international markets, and have an adverse effect on everyone's finances. Moreover, this judgement has significant international ramifications. The United States and the United Kingdom have denounced the acts of China and Turkey, alleging that they are aggravating the humanitarian crisis and hindering efforts to bring about peace in Yemen. Diplomatic connections have been strained, and the already complex global dynamics have been made more so by this circumstance. There is a serious humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen as a result of the prolonged conflict, with many people suffering from disease, famine, and forced migration. There are worries that the humanitarian crisis may get worse as a result of China and Turkey's decision to back the Houthi rebels and put sanctions on the US and the UK. Trade disruptions and economic penalties have the potential to worsen the situation and make it even more difficult for relief and necessities to go to those in need. The international community has reacted to this circumstance by launching diplomatic initiatives to mediate and reduce tensions in the area. Several nations, including the United Nations, are making concerted efforts to get all sides to the negotiating table and achieve a truce. The humanitarian community is working harder than ever to help the Yemeni people. The use of economic sanctions as an instrument of statecraft is not without complexity and difficulties. Although they have the ability to apply economic pressure, there is disagreement over how well they work to accomplish political goals. In this instance, sanctions are being used by China and Turkey in support of the Houthi rebels and to further their geopolitical objectives. The Yemeni war and the international response to it are made more complex by these acts. China and Turkey's decision to halt commerce with the US and the UK highlights how the balance of power is changing globally and how crucial diplomacy is to ending hostilities and handling humanitarian catastrophes. It serves as a reminder that countries must take into account the wider ramifications of their actions on the international arena in an interconnected globe. Significant ramifications for global trade, diplomacy, and the humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen result from China and Turkey's decision to apply economic sanctions in favour of the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Prioritising diplomatic efforts to reach a peaceful conclusion, ensuring the delivery of humanitarian relief, and addressing the fallout from economic sanctions are all tasks that the international community must do. This circumstance emphasises how important it is to work together, have open communication, and uphold international standards and values when tackling difficult global issues.

There are more stories from that war than days in a life time...this is but one story.. I had a friend shot down while resupplying Khe Sanh who spent 3 days in the mud while praying, shooting, and eating mud until he got a ride out of that hell hole; he lost his religion in that war.

Khe Sanh was before my time but the stories from that operation were still alive in 69/70 for those who wanted to listen.



When we did Cambodia there were no OH-6s left by the second week of the operation as they were all shot/crashed/destroyed... Hunter killer teams were then 2 or three Cobras.
