Segment 1: Setting the Stage: The Ideological Framework and Authorial Expertise

We begin today by diving into the compelling and controversial material put forth by Joachim Bartoll, an author and coach who challenges many prevailing notions in modern health and nutrition, particularly concerning diabetes. The underlying philosophical context for this discussion is deeply rooted in concepts like the Terrain Theory and the necessity of a Species-Appropriate Diet. Bartoll maintains a massive body of work, with over 1,800 self-published articles, 600 officially published articles, and eight books, stemming from more than 31 years of writing. His website archives show a long history of output, stretching back to 2001, with hundreds of articles published yearly in recent times, including 190 posts in 2025 alone.

Bartoll frames contemporary nutrition science as "Nutrition Ideology". His website structure features quick start guides covering topics like "The World Playbook as We Know It" and addressing "Germs, Viruses, Contagion, Disease and Other Lies". Key nutritional topics covered include the macronutrients—protein, fat, and carbohydrates—and deep dives into concepts like fasting, fat gain, and hormone function. Crucially, the sources indicate that the author views Veganism Destroyed as a primary subject, alongside the debunking of Diet-, Nutrition Information and Scams. The author himself has an extensive background, having been involved in the health and fitness industry for over 35 years as an elite-level trainer, coach, and body transformation specialist, serving over 1,200 clients. He transitioned to being an animal-based nutritionist in 2018. Furthermore, he spent 17 years studying Western ‘Modern’ Medicine and Pharmacology, but his current methodology is based on over six years of intense study of Human Physiology, Biology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, The Terrain Theory, and German New Medicine. This deep study helped him personally to heal his cancer and failing organs in 2018, cured his lifelong asthma and allergies, and has resulted in him not being sick since. Bartoll sees himself as a truth-seeker and an observer of the occult.

Segment 2: Type 5 Diabetes (MRDM) and the Role of Malnutrition

The core focus of the author’s argument centers on the newly acknowledged classification of Type 5 diabetes, which is also known as malnutrition-related diabetes mellitus (MRDM). This specific form of diabetes has been linked directly to chronic undernutrition. Specifically, MRDM is associated with inadequate intake of (animal) protein during critical early developmental periods, such as early childhood and adolescence. The direct physiological outcome of this deficiency is the impairment of the pancreas’s development and function.

The characteristic feature of MRDM is a severe insulin deficiency. This deficiency arises because the pancreatic tissue is underdeveloped, leading to an inability to produce sufficient amounts of insulin. This mechanism stands in stark contrast to Type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is defined as “insulin resistance,” a state where cells, often damaged by high blood glucose from carbohydrates, possibly combined with seed or vegetable oils, ignore the signals of insulin, thus failing to store glucose as glycogen. Unlike Type 2 diabetes, which involves insulin overproduction initially, MRDM fundamentally results in a state of severe insulin deficiency.

Segment 3: Exposing the Lie: Connecting Type 5 and Type 1 Diabetes

The author contends that the acknowledgment of Type 5 Diabetes (MRDM) exposes flaws in the medical establishment’s understanding of Type 1 diabetes. The medical system differentiates Type 5 as a “non-autoimmune” condition, contrasting it with Type 1 diabetes. However, the author argues that anyone with a basic understanding of biology, physiology, and biochemistry can see the connection between the two conditions.

The underlying assertion is that concepts such as “genetic disorders” and “autoimmune diseases” are pseudo-science. These terms are viewed as a scapegoat that deflects blame away from the true underlying causes: poor nutrition and high toxicity. This perspective is grounded in the author's statement that the first law of biology dictates that an organism will do anything to survive and multiply, meaning it would never harm itself by passing on "malfunctioning" genes or bodily functions. This biological principle suggests that Type 1 diabetes is, in fact, the same underlying condition as Type 5 diabetes.

If Type 5 diabetes (MRDM) is recognized as a malfunctioning pancreas caused by malnutrition, it is viable that Type 1 diabetes occurs when malnutrition hinders development during pregnancy, fetal stages, infancy, or the months following birth, leading to an underdeveloped or damaged pancreas. From a physiological and biological standpoint, this makes sense, especially given what is known about nutrient deficiencies and toxicity during pregnancy. The author suggests that officials resist admitting this truth because it would put the blame on mothers consuming "toxic crap" and insufficient nutrients for the baby. Such an admission would force acknowledgment that plant-based and processed foods are extremely toxic and completely void of bioavailable nutrients, and that most supplements, fortified foods, and infant formulas are toxic and worthless. Therefore, by officially acknowledging Type 5 diabetes, the medical establishment has inadvertently provided an explanation for Type 1 diabetes as well, confirming the idea that bodily ailments are ultimately due to either high toxicity, malnutrition, or a combination of both.

Segment 4: Healing and Regeneration Through Species-Appropriate Nutrition

While Type 5 and Type 1 diabetes imply early damage or underdevelopment, the human body is highlighted as being extremely resilient. The sources emphasize that our organs possess the ability to regenerate, and this regenerative capacity includes the pancreas. While conventional doctors might suggest oral medications and a general "high protein diet," real healing and regeneration are only possible if the necessary nutrients are obtained in their fully bioactive chemical form.

This requires consuming our natural, species-appropriate diet, which the author defines as animal-based food, arguing that humans are obligate hyper carnivores. To maximize the preservation of nutrients and co-factors, this food must be cooked as minimally as possible—ideally raw, or only cooked to “blue” or “rare”.

The specific biochemistry of organ and pancreas regeneration depends upon highly bioavailable cofactors. These essential nutrients include heme iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), all of which are necessary to fuel cell renewal and mitochondrial function. Critically, these specific cofactors are only found in animal-based foods, which directly explains why the deficiency of animal protein causes issues with the pancreas. The path to healing the pancreas, along with most other damaged tissues, involves a diet that is rich in raw or slightly cooked red meat, bone marrow, egg yolks, and organ meats such as the liver, heart, and the pancreas itself. This approach, according to the author, is simple physiology and biochemistry.

Finally, to accelerate any type of healing process, including that of the pancreas, prolonged fasting is recommended. However, fasting is only beneficial once an individual is "fully nourished," meaning they have adhered to a species-appropriate diet for a period of several weeks. The author provides coaching and consultation for those who need assistance transitioning to this natural, species-specific way of eating or dealing with health problems.

The provided text is an excerpt from an article by Joachim Bartoll Official arguing that Type 5 diabetes, or malnutrition-related diabetes mellitus (MRDM), exposes a fundamental misunderstanding or outright deception regarding the true cause of Type 1 diabetes. Bartoll claims that the medical establishment incorrectly attributes conditions like Type 1 diabetes and "autoimmune diseases" to genetics, whereas they are actually caused by malnutrition and high toxicity, often stemming from processed and plant-based foods. The article posits that Type 5 diabetes, linked to protein deficiency and underdeveloped pancreatic tissue, is essentially the same condition as Type 1 diabetes but occurs earlier in fetal or infant development due to maternal nutritional issues. Bartoll champions an animal-based, obligate hyper carnivore diet—specifically raw or lightly cooked animal products rich in bioavailable cofactors like zinc and B12—as the only effective means for pancreatic and organ regeneration. He concludes that healing from diabetes and other ailments requires a species-appropriate diet and potentially prolonged fasting, offering coaching and consultation services to aid in this dietary transition.

Discuss Diabetes Causes.

The sources provided, written from the perspective of Joachim Bartoll, challenge conventional medical understandings of diabetes causation, proposing that all forms of diabetes ultimately stem from malnutrition and/or high toxicity1. The author views genetic disorders and "autoimmune diseases" as pseudo-science used as a scapegoat for poor nutrition and high toxicity2.

The sources discuss the causes of diabetes by focusing on three types:

1. Causes of Type 5 Diabetes (Malnutrition-Related Diabetes Mellitus - MRDM)

Type 5 diabetes, also known as Malnutrition-Related Diabetes Mellitus (MRDM), is acknowledged as a distinct form of diabetes linked to specific nutritional deficiencies3.

• Underlying Cause: The condition is tied to chronic undernutrition3.

• Specific Nutrient Deficiency: A key factor identified is the lack of (animal) protein during early childhood and adolescence3.

• Physiological Effect: This chronic undernutrition impairs the development and function of the pancreas3. The outcome is a state of severe insulin deficiency because the underdeveloped pancreatic tissue is unable to produce sufficient insulin3. This differs from Type 2 diabetes, which is characterized by insulin resistance3.

2. Proposed Causes of Type 1 Diabetes

The author suggests that the acknowledgment of Type 5 diabetes (MRDM) secretly explains the cause of Type 1 diabetes as well1. While the "medical establishment" distinguishes Type 5 as "non-autoimmune" and separate from Type 1, the author argues they are connected2.

• Hypothesized Cause: Type 1 diabetes is hypothesized to be the same mechanism as Type 5 diabetes4.

• Timing of Deficiency: The malfunctioning pancreas that leads to Type 1 diabetes occurs due to malnutrition during pregnancy and the developing stages of the fetus and the baby, and perhaps even the months after birth4.

• Specific Factors: This early-life malnutrition prevents the child from developing fully, resulting in an underdeveloped or damaged pancreas4. This is attributed to toxicity and nutrient deficiencies during pregnancy4.

• Toxic Components: The author claims that officials avoid admitting this cause because it would assign blame to mothers consuming "toxic crap" and insufficient nutrients, and would reveal that anything plant-based and processed is extremely toxic and void of bioavailable nutrients4. It would also show that many supplements, "fortified" foods, and baby/infant formulas are toxic and worthless4.

3. Causes of Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is categorized differently, focusing on insulin resistance rather than severe insulin deficiency3.

• Primary Cause: Type 2 diabetes is caused by high levels of blood glucose from carbohydrates3.

• Contributing Factors: This carbohydrate consumption often occurs in combination with seed/vegetable oils3.

• Physiological Effect: The high blood glucose and oils damage the cells, leading to "insulin resistance" where the cells are no longer able to store glucose as glycogen and thus ignore the signals of insulin3.

Discuss Nutrition and Diet.

The sources approach nutrition and diet from a specific perspective, asserting that Nutrition Science is Nutrition Ideology1. The focus is on identifying and adhering to what is called the Species-Appropriate, Species-Specific Natural Diet1.

The Species-Appropriate Diet and Human Biology

The central thesis regarding diet is that humans are obligate hyper carnivores2. Consequently, the natural and species-appropriate human diet is animal-based (carnivore)23.

This dietary approach covers discussions of the Macronutrients: Protein, Fat, and Carbohydrates1.

For optimal nutrition and regeneration, animal-based food must be consumed in a fully bioactive chemical form2. To preserve all nutrients and co-factors, food should be as minimally cooked as possible, preferably raw or only cooked to “blue” or “rare”2. A diet rich in animal-based foods recommended for healing includes raw or slightly cooked red meat, egg yolks, bone marrow, and organ meats such as heart, liver, and the pancreas itself4.

Malnutrition, Toxicity, and Disease

According to the sources, any bodily malfunction is attributable to either malnutrition or high toxicity, or both5.

1. Protein Deficiency and Pancreatic Damage: The sources draw connections between chronic undernutrition, specifically the lack of (animal) protein, and impaired health6. Type 5 diabetes, also known as malnutrition-related diabetes mellitus (MRDM), has been acknowledged as a distinct form linked to chronic undernutrition, particularly protein deficiency during early childhood and adolescence6. This deficiency impairs the development and function of the pancreas, leading to severe insulin deficiency due to underdeveloped pancreatic tissue67.

2. Nutrient Requirements: The regeneration of organs, particularly the pancreas, is dependent biochemically on bioavailable cofactors that fuel mitochondrial function and cell renewal4. These essential nutrients—including heme iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and coenzyme Q10—are stated to be only found in animal-based foods4. This explains why the lack of animal protein causes problems with the pancreas4.

3. Toxicity and Plant-Based Diets: Plant-based and processed items are described as extremely toxic and completely void of any bioavailable nutrients7. The sources discuss "Veganism Destroyed"1 and the Extreme Dangers and Damage of a Fruitarian Diet, noting that while some may survive for months or years on such toxic diets, they often sustain irreversible damage, such as losing teeth and dramatically shortening their lifespans as organs take damage58. Plant toxins, accumulated toxicity, tissue damage, and a decreased lifespan are cited concerns8.

Healing and Regeneration

The organs are said to have the ability to regenerate, including the pancreas2. Real healing and regeneration are only possible by obtaining necessary nutrients in fully bioactive chemical form through the species-appropriate natural human diet2.

To speed up healing, including that of the pancreas, prolonged fasting is suggested, but only once an individual is fully nourished (having followed the species-appropriate diet for a few weeks)9.

The sources also address related topics concerning diet and fitness, including:

• Nutrition Deficiencies, Hunger and Cravings1.

• Diet-, Nutrition Information and Scams1.

• Gaining Weight/Muscle Mass1.

• Fat Gain, Energy and Hormones1.

• Fat Loss and Fasting1.

• Sport- and “Health” Supplements1.

• The Simple Truth About Obesity8.

If individuals need assistance transitioning to this natural species-appropriate way of eating or need help with specific health problems, coaching and consultation services are available39.

Discuss Organ Regeneration.

The discussion of organ regeneration in the sources centers on the premise that the human body, specifically the organs, possesses an inherent capacity to heal and renew itself1. This ability is highlighted in the context of correcting damage or underdevelopment caused by malnutrition or high toxicity2.

The Pancreas and Regeneration

The sources specifically discuss the regeneration of the pancreas, particularly in relation to conditions like Type 5 Diabetes, also known as malnutrition-related diabetes mellitus (MRDM)13.

• MRDM is characterized by severe insulin deficiency stemming from underdeveloped or damaged pancreatic tissue due to chronic undernutrition, especially a lack of animal protein during early development34.

• The author posits that if the pancreas is underdeveloped or damaged due to a misfortunate childhood (malnutrition and toxicity), it still has the ability to regenerate12. This regenerative capability also applies to "most other damaged tissues as well"5.

Requirements for Real Healing and Regeneration

According to the author, while the body can be very resilient, real healing and regeneration of organs, including the pancreas, are only possible if specific nutritional criteria are met12.

1. Bioactive Nutrients and Diet: Regeneration depends on acquiring necessary nutrients in a fully bioactive chemical form1. The source asserts that the only way to achieve this is through the species-appropriate and natural human diet of animal-based food, based on the claim that humans are "obligate hyper carnivores"1.

2. Minimally Cooked Food: To preserve all necessary nutrients and co-factors, the food must be as minimally cooked as possible, preferably served raw or only cooked to “blue” or “rare”1.

3. Biochemical Dependence: Biochemically, the regeneration of organs, particularly the pancreas, relies on bioavailable cofactors that are essential for fueling mitochondrial function and cell renewal5. These key nutrients include:

    ◦ Heme iron5.

    ◦ Zinc56.

    ◦ Vitamin B1256.

    ◦ Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)56.

    ◦ These essential nutrients are stated to be only found in animal-based foods, which is offered as the explanation for why a lack of animal protein causes issues like pancreatic damage5.

Dietary Recommendations for Organ Healing

To heal the pancreas and other damaged tissues over time, the recommended diet involves food rich in the necessary bioavailable cofactors5. This includes a diet rich in:

• Raw or only slightly cooked red meat5.

• Egg yolks5.

• Bone marrow5.

• Organ meats such as heart, liver, and the pancreas itself5.

Speeding Up Healing

While proper nutrition is the foundation, prolonged fasting is suggested to "do wonders" to speed up any kind of healing, including that of the pancreas7. However, this method should only be employed once the individual is fully nourished—meaning they have already been following a species-appropriate diet for a few weeks7.

The author notes that their belief in the power of organ regeneration is supported by personal experience, having healed their own cancer and failing organs in 2018 by studying Human Physiology, Biology, and Biochemistry, and adopting an animal-based diet8. The author contrasts this approach with conventional methods, noting that doctors often recommend oral medications and a "high protein diet," whereas true regeneration requires the fully bioactive nutrients found in the specified animal-based diet1.

Discuss Fasting and Health.

The sources discuss fasting primarily in the context of accelerating the body's natural healing processes, but only after proper nourishment has been established.

Fasting as a Tool for Healing and Regeneration

According to Joachim Bartoll, prolonged fasting will "do wonders" to speed up any kind of healing1.

This application of fasting specifically includes the healing and regeneration of organs, such as the pancreas1.

Prerequisite: Being Fully Nourished

A crucial condition is placed on the use of prolonged fasting for health benefits: it should only be undertaken as soon as you are fully nourished1. This requires that the individual has been following a species-appropriate diet for a few weeks prior to fasting1.

The sources strongly advocate for the species-appropriate human diet to be animal-based (as humans are described as obligate hyper carnivores)2. This diet provides the necessary nutrients in fully bioactive chemical form to support the healing and regeneration of organs2. Specifically, the regeneration of organs, including the pancreas, is dependent on bioavailable cofactors like heme iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and coenzyme Q10, which are found only in animal-based foods and fuel mitochondrial function and cell renewal3.

Types of Fasting and Related Topics

The article excerpts and related topics list mention several forms of fasting:

• Prolonged fasting is explicitly recommended to speed up healing1.

• The content is associated with tags for "extended fasting" and "dry fasting"4.

• The author has also published content related to "Intermittent Fasting"5 and addresses "Debunking Myths About Intermittent Fasting?"5.

Overall, while humans are noted to be very resilient and can survive for months or years on toxic, nutrient-void diets, the highest level of healing and repair is achieved by first consuming an optimal, nutrient-rich, animal-based diet and then utilizing prolonged fasting16.

Discuss Health Misinformation.

The sources characterize much of established health and medical information as deceptive or fundamentally incorrect, referring to it as lying, pseudo-science, scams, and propaganda1.... The author, Joachim Bartoll, asserts that officials and the "medical establishment" conceal the true causes of disease24.

Core Claims of Health Misinformation

The author frames several key medical and biological concepts as misinformation or "lies":

• Lies About Disease and Contagion: The navigational structure of the author's website suggests that accepted notions of "Germs, Viruses, Contagion, Disease and Other Lies" are part of a misinformed "World Playbook"1.

• Pseudo-Science of Genetics and Autoimmunity: The author explicitly states that "genetic disorders" and “autoimmune diseases” are pseudo-science2. These concepts are allegedly used as a "scapegoat for poor nutrition and high toxicity"2. This belief is based on the biological principle that an organism's primary function is survival and multiplication, meaning it would not "hurt itself by passing on ‘malfunctioning’ bodily functions or ‘genes’"2.

• Lies Regarding Diabetes: The title of the featured article claims that the existence of Type 5 diabetes (Malnutrition-Related Diabetes Mellitus or MRDM) demonstrates that "They Have Been Lying About Type 1 Diabetes The Whole Time"5.

    ◦ The "backwards and lying medical establishment" and media are criticized for classifying Type 5 diabetes as a “non-autoimmune” condition to differentiate it from Type 1 diabetes, despite the author's belief that they are connected physiologically and biologically2.

    ◦ Officials are accused of refusing to admit that Type 1 diabetes is caused by toxicity and nutrient deficiencies during pregnancy4. The author suggests this refusal is intended to avoid admitting that anything plant-based and processed is extremely toxic and void of bioavailable nutrients4.

Nutritional Misinformation and Scams

The sources suggest that established dietary advice constitutes misinformation:

• Nutrition Science as Ideology: The author titles one section "Nutrition Science is Nutrition Ideology" and refers to nutritional advice as "Diet-, Nutrition Information and Scams"1.

• Toxicity of Conventional Foods: Admitting the true cause of diseases like Type 1 diabetes would allegedly show that "almost every single supplement is toxic and worthless," along with “fortified” food and baby/infant formulas4. Furthermore, the truth would reveal that "anything plant-based and processed is extremely toxic"4.

• "Backwards Thinking": Several related articles are titled to indicate that current scientific thinking is flawed, including "Backwards Thinking: Gut Microbiome 101 and Type 2 Diabetes" and "More Backwards Thinking: Fight Diabetes By Regrowing The Pancreas"3.

The author bases his current work on the premise that he spent "17 years of wasted studies in Western ‘Modern’ Medicine and Pharmacology"6 before finding alternative explanations in Human Physiology, Biology, Biochemistry, The Terrain Theory, and German New Medicine6.

The author sees himself as a "truth-seeker at heart"7, stating that the information provided on his website represents his thoughts, views, and speculations intended as "possibilities for you to consider" so readers can make their own conclusions7.

Understanding Diabetes: A New Perspective on Nutrition and Pancreatic Health

Introduction: A Different Way to Think About Diabetes

This document explains the biological reality of diabetes, a condition directly caused by malnutrition and toxicity. It moves beyond the misleading narratives of the medical establishment to reveal the true root causes of the different forms of diabetes. Here, we will explore the evidence that pancreatic dysfunction is not a matter of genetics or a self-attacking body, but a direct and logical consequence of a diet that lacks the essential nutrients required for proper development and function.

1. The Author's Core Argument: Malnutrition as the Root Cause

The central argument is that all forms of diabetes are the result of either malnutrition, high toxicity, or a combination of both. This perspective rejects concepts like "genetic disorders" and "autoimmune diseases" as pseudo-science and a scapegoat for poor nutrition. From a biological standpoint, the idea that a body would attack itself is nonsensical, as it violates the primary drive for survival. The first law of biology dictates that an organism will do anything to survive and multiply; a species that systematically attacks itself would die out within a few generations. Therefore, conditions like diabetes must be understood as a direct consequence of a diet lacking essential, bioavailable nutrients.

2. Explaining the Three Types of Diabetes

Viewed through the lens of malnutrition, the different types of diabetes are not distinct diseases but different manifestations of the same fundamental problem.

2.1. Type 2 Diabetes: A Problem of "Insulin Resistance"

Type 2 diabetes is categorized as "insulin resistance." This occurs when high levels of blood glucose, primarily from carbohydrates and toxic seed/vegetable oils, damage the body's cells. Overwhelmed and damaged, these cells lose their ability to store more glucose and begin to ignore the signals from insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar.

2.2. Type 5 Diabetes (MRDM): The Malnutrition Link

Type 5 Diabetes, also known as Malnutrition-Related Diabetes Mellitus (MRDM), is now acknowledged as a distinct form of diabetes. This condition is directly linked to chronic undernutrition, particularly a deficiency in animal protein during childhood and adolescence. This lack of essential building blocks impairs the proper development of the pancreas, resulting in underdeveloped pancreatic tissue and a severe inability to produce enough insulin.

2.3. Type 1 Diabetes: The Author's Main Theory

The existence of Type 5 diabetes reveals the truth about Type 1. The argument is that Type 1 is the same fundamental issue as Type 5—a malfunctioning pancreas caused by malnutrition—but the nutritional deficiencies occur much earlier in life. Specifically, this malnutrition happens during the development of the fetus and continues through infancy, preventing the pancreas from ever developing fully.

The fact that the medical establishment classifies Type 5 as a "non-autoimmune" condition is a quiet admission that supports this theory. However, officials will likely never admit this connection publicly, as it puts the blame on the mother for consuming toxic, nutrient-poor foods during pregnancy. From a purely physiological and biological standpoint, this developmental explanation is far more logical than an "autoimmune" theory.

3. A Side-by-Side Comparison: Two Views on Diabetes

This table summarizes the conventional views and contrasts them with the malnutrition-based perspective, revealing the core difference in understanding the root cause.

Diabetes Type

Conventional View (As Characterized by the Author)

The Author's Malnutrition-Based Perspective

Type 1

Autoimmune Condition

An underdeveloped pancreas resulting from severe malnutrition during fetal development and infancy.

Type 2

Insulin Resistance (Cause often linked to genetics and lifestyle factors).

Insulin Resistance is the mechanism, but the root cause is cellular damage from high glucose (from carbohydrates) and toxic seed/vegetable oils.

Type 5

Non-Autoimmune

An underdeveloped pancreas caused by chronic undernutrition (especially a lack of animal protein) during childhood and adolescence.

4. The Path to Healing: Regenerating the Pancreas Through Nutrition

Since the root cause is malnutrition, the solution lies in providing the body with the correct biological building blocks to heal itself.

4.1. The Body's Ability to Regenerate

A core truth of biology is that the body's organs, including the pancreas, have the natural ability to regenerate. This healing process, however, can only occur if the body is supplied with the proper nutrients in their most bioactive forms.

4.2. The "Species-Appropriate" Diet

The only path to true healing is through a "species-appropriate" diet, which recognizes that humans are obligate hyper carnivores. This diet consists of animal-based foods eaten raw or minimally cooked (e.g., blue or rare) to preserve their full nutritional value. Key foods include:

• Red meat

• Egg yolks

• Bone marrow

• Organ meats (such as heart, liver, and pancreas)

4.3. Essential Nutrients for Healing

Four bioactive nutrients, found only in animal-based foods, are essential for regenerating the pancreas. They provide the raw materials needed to fuel mitochondrial function and cell renewal.

• Heme Iron: A highly bioavailable form of iron crucial for energy production and building healthy cells.

• Zinc: A vital cofactor for countless biochemical processes, including cell growth, repair, and proper organ function.

• Vitamin B12: Essential for nerve function, cell formation, and metabolic processes that drive regeneration.

• Coenzyme Q10: A powerful antioxidant critical for fueling mitochondrial energy production, which drives cell renewal and regeneration.

4.4. The Role of Fasting

Prolonged fasting can accelerate the healing process, but only after a person has become fully nourished by following the species-appropriate diet.

5. Conclusion: A New Outlook

This perspective provides a paradigm shift in understanding diabetes. It moves away from the pseudo-scientific labels of "autoimmune" and "genetic" to reframe the condition as a direct, and reversible, consequence of malnutrition. The core message is one of biological reality and empowerment: by providing the body with a nutrient-dense, species-appropriate diet rich in animal-based foods, it is possible to regenerate damaged tissues and restore pancreatic health.

welcome to the LennyAndMariaPodcasts.com series.

Source 1: Afghanistan Goes Dark: Taliban Pull Plug on 40 Million People

The entire country of Afghanistan entered a total communications blackout starting at 5 PM on Monday, September 29th. Taliban authorities deliberately cut the country’s fibre-optic backbone. This drastic action reduced internet and mobile connectivity to less than 1% of normal operations, according to the internet watchdog NetBlocks. Everything from border operations to daily shopping, international trade, tourism, and bureaucratic procedures was instantaneously cut off. Diplomatic sources indicate that the shutdown will "remain in place until further notice".

The Taliban has officially framed the measure as a morality measure, aimed at curbing "evils" such as pornography access. Weeks prior to the total communications failure, fibre links had been progressively severed province by province. Haji Attaullah Zaid from the Balkh administration stated that this measure was taken to prevent immorality, and an alternative would be built within the country for necessities. The effective consequences on the ground are immense, throttling phones, banking, customs, media, schools, hospitals, and aid work. Officials did not provide specific advance notice for this week’s complete cut-off, although sporadic bans had been rolling out in parts of the country over the preceding weeks.

The connectivity cut-off is the latest in a series of Taliban-enforced restrictions since their return to power, following the removal of books written by women from the country’s education system and the outlawing of teaching human rights and sexual harassment earlier this month. The Taliban supreme leader, Hibatullah Akhundzada, had ordered a "complete internet ban" earlier this month, which began in smaller provinces. This blackout critically impacts international aviation, cross-border trade, remittances, and humanitarian operations that rely on digital links for clearance and coordination. The UN has flagged critical risks to healthcare, payments, and access to information, especially for women and girls who have already been forced into online spaces for services denied offline. Humanitarian aid agencies are slowing life-saving work and complicating security coordination by falling back to limited satellite links and radio. Everyday commerce is suffering as payment networks, banking, and supply chains stall, hourly impacting medicine deliveries and markets. Travelers and residents cannot enter or leave the country, facing canceled flights and offline visa and ticketing systems, with even overland crossings relying on digital systems, which affects international trade routes and personal freedoms.

The information vacuum created by the nationwide switch off allows for total narrative control if services partially return, potentially through throttling internet speeds or limiting access to international platforms. If past shutdowns in other countries serve as a guide, authorities may be using the darkness to detain critics, conduct raids, or push through policy changes that would face immediate public visibility and pushback otherwise. This deliberate, nationwide action, plunging a population larger than Ukraine or California into darkness, displays a government willing to make drastic changes and risk absolute disruption to citizens' daily lives to impose what it considers moral restrictions.

Source 2: Gen Z is losing the ability to write by hand; handwriting plays a key role in cognitive development - The Expose

Handwriting has been central to human communication for 5,500 years. However, new research suggests that Generation Z, generally born between the late 1990s and early 2010s, may be the first generation to lose this fundamental skill. A study by the University of Stavanger reports that approximately 40% of young people in this generation struggle to communicate effectively by hand.

Experts caution that this trend is far from trivial because handwriting is fundamentally linked to cognitive development. It engages the brain differently than typing on a keyboard, connecting directly to skills such as comprehension and memory. The ubiquitous presence of digital technology threatens this skill, which has played a crucial role in shaping human civilization.

Digital transformation has made handwriting less common, as young people prefer instant messaging, social networks, abbreviations, and quick exchanges, replacing pen and paper with keyboards and touch screens in many daily routines. According to university professors cited in the Turkish newspaper Türkiye Today, Generation Z students have so thoroughly integrated keyboards into their daily lives that they become "bewildered" when required to revert to handwriting. Lack of practice leads to a marked deterioration in their handwriting, often rendering it disorganized and difficult to read.

A specific deterioration observed by Professor Nedret Kiliceri is that university students lack knowledge of the basic rules of handwriting. They avoid long sentences and tend to write isolated sentences rather than paragraphs that group related sentences by meaning. This pattern is seen as an influence of social media, leading students to arrive at university without pens, relying entirely on keyboards. The erosion of handwriting impacts more than just the ability to write a postcard or letter; it profoundly affects how Generation Z interprets and perceives the world. Handwriting is generally associated with a more personal and thoughtful form of communication, contrasting with the frequently impulsive nature of digital texts. The challenge remains whether Generation Z and future generations can balance the digital world with the age-old skills that have shaped society, which will determine how we understand and communicate in the future.

Source 3: How a Shutdown Could Cripple U.S. National Security & Trump Targets ‘Woke Generals’

The possibility of Washington gridlock leading to a U.S. government shutdown poses real danger to America's national security. A shutdown risks turning political dysfunction at home into real danger abroad, weakening deterrence, creating cyber blind spots, and impacting operational readiness. Active duty military personnel will continue their missions but will work without pay until the government reopens, which is a blow to morale, especially for enlisted members supporting families.

Hundreds of thousands of civilian defense department employees, who form the backbone of the department, could be furloughed. These civilian workers maintain equipment and provide logistics, and without them, the U.S. military operates on borrowed time, burning through manpower reserves and spare parts without proper support. Historically, even brief shutdowns can delay training rotations, slow weapons testing, and postpone maintenance, which risks eroding the force's overall readiness, creating gaps enemies could exploit.

The defense industrial base is also impacted, facing delays in paying invoices and awarding contracts. For small firms running on tight margins, a few weeks without cash flow could force layoffs or shutter facilities entirely, constituting a "death sentence". Shutdowns generate blind spots in cyberspace, as the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) relies on civilian analysts to monitor threats and coordinate with private industry. If these staff members are furloughed, patches and warnings that should be issued within hours could take days or simply never materialize, leaving the U.S. exposed to hackers. Intelligence operations face challenges as well; while high-priority collection continues, the support structure—including analysts who fuse data, contractors who maintain systems, and translators—may be impacted, weakening the ability to brief policy makers and spot emerging threats in real time. In a crisis, these missing days or hours could be costly.

Domestic impacts include warnings from the FAA that a shutdown would halt the training and hiring of air traffic controllers, leading to increased congestion and potentially higher risks in the skies. Safety inspections on aircraft could be delayed. Essential personnel like TSA and border officials would work without pay. Furthermore, infrastructure oversight, such as dam inspections and nuclear plant security reviews, could be slowed, leaving critical facilities without the usual level of federal monitoring. Adversaries and allies observe these battles, interpreting dysfunction as weakness and wondering about America's capacity for sustained leadership, thereby eroding credibility which is crucial for deterrence. While a short shutdown won't cripple defenses overnight, sustained gridlock deepens the damage to readiness, intelligence, and the system's operational foundation.

In separate news regarding military culture, Defense Secretary Pete Hegsath and President Trump recently gathered over 800 flag officers (admirals and generals) at Marine Corps base Quantico in Virginia, signaling an intent to remake the armed forces into a leaner, more "battle ready department of war". Hegsath declared that the era of "woke generals" is over. He indicted decades of "drift" within the Pentagon, asserting that "reckless political leaders" promoted officers based on "historic firsts" and diversity quotas rather than merit, resulting in a rudderless military that became the "woke department". Hegsath cited his earlier firings of the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Charles Brown Jr., and the Navy's highest-ranking officer, Admiral Lisa Franketti, as proof that he would purge a leadership class characterized by a "broken culture".

Hegsath warned those who disagreed with his message to "do the honorable thing and resign". Reforms starting immediately include pegging fitness tests only to male standards, tightening grooming rules, and granting commanders more latitude to enforce discipline without fearing politically motivated complaints. The administration plans to rewrite the definitions of "bullying" and "toxic leadership," arguing that liberal policy protections against abuse had "neutered the chain of command". When addressing women in combat, Hegsath advocated for one high, gender-neutral standard, stating that if women cannot qualify for certain jobs, "it is what it is". President Trump pledged a record $1 trillion investment in the military in 2026, promising to make the military stronger, tougher, faster, fiercer, and more powerful than ever before. Trump defended his executive order to rebrand the Pentagon as the "Department of War," calling it a symbolic restoration intended to project deterrence to adversaries abroad. The message conveyed at Quantico was that loyalty, toughness, and a willingness to shed the Pentagon's "sensitive guard rails" will determine which leaders carry America’s forces into the next era.

Source 4: How many migrants are living in Europe, and which country has the most? - The Expose

Data compiled by Visual Capitalist presents available migrant data according to country of birth as of January 1, 2024. When ranked by the share of foreign-born residents, Liechtenstein tops the list of European countries. 70% of Liechtenstein’s 40,000 residents were born abroad, and approximately two-thirds of those foreign-born residents hail from outside the European Union. Luxembourg (51%) and Malta (31%) also heavily rely on immigrants. These countries' favorable tax regimes, small domestic workforces, and cross-border job markets act as strong pull factors. In Luxembourg, Malta, and Liechtenstein, non-EU migrants constitute a majority of the foreign-born population, highlighting their roles as global talent hubs beyond just Europe.

In terms of absolute numbers, Germany leads Europe with the most immigrants, hosting 16.9 million foreign-born residents. This figure is equal to one-fifth of Germany’s population and accounts for one-quarter of all foreign-born residents in the EU. Only 37% of these arrivals originate from within the EU, indicating that Germany’s appeal extends significantly beyond the continent, reflecting broader geopolitical magnetism, including Asian and Middle-Eastern inflows. Germany’s population is aging, with a median age of 47 (making it the 9th oldest country globally by this metric), and its robust manufacturing base maintains a consistent demand for labor.

Migration patterns exhibit an East-West divide in Europe. Western and Northern Europe generally report immigrant shares above 15%, while many Eastern European states fall below 5%. Poland (3%) and Romania (3%) are noted as sitting at the bottom of the list. This imbalance reflects the ongoing East-West migration path where Western job markets and higher living standards continue to attract Eastern Europeans, despite economic convergence narrowing wage gaps. Many Eastern European countries now have fewer residents than they did in 1990.

The data used relies on administrative sources provided to the EU, such as registers for population, residence, work permits, foreigners, tax, or health insurance. Consequently, this data does not capture immigrants who reside illegally or whose presence is not recorded by a government agency. Immigrants must reside in the country for more than 12 months to be counted. Regarding Ukrainians, all reporting countries except four—Slovakia, Poland, Sweden, and Liechtenstein—include those under refugee or temporary residence permits in their migration statistics. Data for the UK is not collected or published by Eurostat since Brexit, though the last census (2020-2021) showed about 16% of the UK population was foreign-born.

Source 5: Learning From Ants - LewRockwell

The observation is made that if 100 red fire ants and 100 large black ants are placed in a jar, nothing happens initially, but if the jar is violently shaken and the ants are dumped out, they will fight until they kill each other. The ants perceive each other as the enemy, yet the real adversary is the person who shook the jar. This analogy is applied to contemporary society, prompting the question of who is "shaking the jar" and why.

It is natural for humans to identify with some individuals more than others, a tendency predating Homo sapiens. People generally seek to be surrounded by those with shared perceptions and behaviors, as this is the basis of trust, which is essential for increased safety within a group or herd. In nature, many species adapt to a condition of mutual tolerance to coexist, even if they are natural enemies in other contexts, such as predators and prey sharing a water hole. For the most part, mankind seeks to live in a spirit of cooperation, understanding that "getting along" is generally in one's best interest, even in close quarters like cities or fenced countryside divisions.

However, in many countries of the First World, there is a rapidly increasing polarity among people, causing those who would normally lean toward mutual tolerance to become so polarized that they engage in heated arguments even with family members. This heightened polarization is not attributed to the rise of the internet, which actually broadens public discourse, but rather to the media. Many people distrust the media networks that purport to deliver "news," which today often consists of objective information being replaced by continuous diatribes against one political party or the opposing party. When viewing the news, one arrives at "Indoctrination Central," where viewers are dictated opposing beliefs, such as that vaxxing is a humanitarian duty versus that vaxxing leads to enslavement by globalists injecting microchips. Likewise, the media dictates the belief that warfare is essential to protection versus that wars will destroy us.

Those who control the media are identified as the source of the polarization in the First World. As to the "Why?", the answer is simple: the more a people can be manipulated into fighting each other, the easier it becomes to subjugate them. Since the effort to polarize people (Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. white, Man vs. woman) has become so massive, the conclusion is that the ultimate objective is to implement a far greater level of subjugation in an abnormally short period of time using the "divide and conquer" strategy. It is vital for people to recognize that those controlling the media are manufacturing conflict between groups that would otherwise exercise mutual tolerance. Those who succumb to the bait by becoming rabidly supportive of one political party or allowing themselves to be conned into hatred of an entire gender or race will be the greatest casualties of subjugation.

Source 6: Murderers for Trump - LewRockwell

President Trump has expressed support for the death penalty for drug dealers. His recent actions suggest that the death penalty he seeks is often implemented through extrajudicial murder, rather than resulting from conviction and sentencing after prosecution and trial. Trump previously congratulated Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte on his "unbelievable job on the drug problem," despite Duterte later being charged by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for violent acts including murder against alleged criminals, including drug dealers.

In September, Trump ordered the U.S. military to conduct "a kinetic strike" in international waters against "terrorists transporting illegal narcotics, heading to the United States," resulting in the killing of eleven "terrorists". Subsequent lethal strikes destroyed a second boat on September 15th and a third boat on September 19th, also described as trafficking illicit narcotics in international waters.

These actions are characterized as extrajudicial murder because they occurred without arraignment, arrest, indictment, trial, conviction, or sentencing. There was no proof of the boat's cargo, and neither the boat nor its occupants posed a threat to the United States, as the strikes took place in international waters far from American territory. Drug law violation is not a death-penalty offense. Trump ordered the U.S. military to kill these individuals, taking the role of judge, jury, and executioner. The use of the U.S. military for drug smuggling, which is a criminal offense, rather than reserving it for an act of war, is noted. Trump’s actions are often excused by conservatives because he labeled the people murdered by the military as “narco-terrorists,” but the assertion is made that the war on drugs is just as bogus as the war on terrorism. The writer suggests that military personnel who murder for Trump are the real narco-terrorists.

Joining the military means an expectation to unconditionally follow orders, potentially including being ordered to murder for the current or future president, and to help carry out an interventionist, belligerent, and reckless U.S. foreign policy. This involves serving as a pawn in the hands of Uncle Sam and part of the president's personal attack force, rather than defending American freedoms or the Constitution. In contemporary America, criticizing the military is often viewed as criticizing America itself, leading to a deferral to the militarization of daily life, such as military salutes at public concerts and flyovers at ball games.

Source 7: Thailand freezes millions of bank accounts - The Expose

The Bank of Thailand (BoT) has frozen over three million bank accounts as part of a nationwide crackdown on financial fraud. The central bank has issued warnings that more freezes are imminent. This action began in August 2025 and has caused widespread disruption, affecting small businesses, foreign residents, and ordinary citizens, often without prior warning.

This severe banking crisis is characterized by government overreach and overwhelming regulations. The process was streamlined by the BoT, the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, and the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society under the pretense of safeguarding the banking sector. Thousands of accounts are frozen weekly. Victims of a freeze are often locked out of all their accounts without warning, losing the ability to purchase necessities like groceries or gas, with no clarification as to which transaction was flagged for potential money laundering or suspicious activity.

Confidence in the banking system and the government has evaporated, causing panic. People rationally fear that their accounts will be targeted next without warning. Retailers have begun demanding payment in cash and refusing cards, worried they too will be removed from the banking system. This government overreach has backfired, propelling people to remove themselves from the banking system entirely. The Assistant Governor of the BoT, Darunee Saeju, stated that measures were being put in place to verify and immediately unlock wrongly affected accounts within 48 hours.

This banking crisis in Thailand is not an isolated phenomenon; Vietnam recently erased 86 million unverified bank accounts. Governments are demanding that banks track and scrutinize every transaction, tracing each account to individual citizens using biometric data. Officials believe these measures will prevent capital from leaving their radar, thereby enabling taxation. Instead, this system of centralized financial control is fueling the cycle of private waves as citizens lose trust in the current financial system.

Source 8: The Intelligent Person’s Guide to Race & Racial Differences, by F. Roger Devlin - The Unz Review

Discussion of race is often obscured by contradiction and wishful thinking, such as claiming all races are equal while whites oppress others, or denying race exists while striving for greater diversity. However, the basic facts about human races can be stated clearly. According to current information, human beings originated in Africa between two and three million years ago and began spreading across Europe and Asia about 1.8 million years ago. When a species spreads across a large area, it encounters new environments that pose different survival challenges, leading to evolution and new genetic mutations. For example, light skin is harmful in tropical Africa but beneficial in northern latitudes with less sunlight, eventually becoming the norm in Europe.

There are countless areas where racial differences can be observed, starting with athletic performance. American basketball is dominated by Blacks, Olympic table-tennis gold medalists are usually East Asians, and Whites dominate field events like the hammer throw and shot put. The dominance of sprinting competitions by West Africans (or those of West African descent) is attributed to at least six traits compared to Asians and whites: on average, they have longer legs, narrower hips, a lower center of gravity, lower body fat, higher quantity of fast-twitch muscle tissue, and higher testosterone levels.

Reluctance to discuss racial differences is often motivated by fear of making invidious distinctions between "superior" and "inferior" races. To counter this, it is noted that racial differences relate to specific traits; a race may be "superior" at sprinting, but no race is best in every trait, making it meaningless to claim any race is inherently superior per se. Recognizing differences does not logically imply that one race should rule over or benefit at the expense of others.

Race and intelligence are sensitive areas where disparities have been found. In America, average Black IQ lags about fifteen points behind average White IQ (85 vs. 100), a difference known since WWI. Globally, larger differences are found: Black Africans have an average IQ around 70, Australian Aborigines at 62, Northeast Asians (Japanese, Chinese, Koreans) average 105, and Ashkenazi Jews average as high as 112. Scholars struggling with these findings develop complicated theories to account for phenomena like persistent African poverty and widespread Jewish success, which are easily explained by those who recognize that racial differences are normal and natural. Attempts to blame these differences on environment, such as black Americans growing up in less desirable neighborhoods, are countered by studies showing that children of the wealthiest 20% of black families still perform worse in school than children of the poorest 20% of white families. Studies of identical twins reared apart and trans-racial adoptions confirm that intelligence correlates more strongly with genetic relatedness than early childhood environment. The argument that intelligence tests are "culturally biased" against blacks is undermined by the fact that East Asians, who are non-white, outscore whites on these same tests, and modern tests avoid cultural references, relying on pattern recognition with geometric shapes and numbers.

Another sensitive area is race and crime rates. Detailed FBI statistics show that in 2013, black Americans were six times more likely than non-blacks to commit murder. In 2014 in New York City, Blacks were 31 times more likely than whites to be arrested for murder and over 98 times more likely to be arrested for shooting. Hispanics commit violent crimes at about three times the white rate. Evidence suggests that police shootings of blacks are not more common than predicted by black crime rates and the likelihood of resisting arrest.

The preference for one’s own race (racial discrimination) is a deeply rooted fact of human nature, supported by psychological research. Three-month-old infants look longer at faces of their own race. People of all races exhibit greater sympathetic pain reaction when viewing injuries to hands of their own race. The brain's amygdala, associated with wariness, displays heightened activity for other-race faces even after a second viewing, but perceives same-race faces as "familiar" quickly. The only people who appear to lack a preference for their own race suffer from Williams Syndrome, a condition where they are "hypersocial" but usually retarded and suffer from other problems. This kin preference evolved because early humans lived in small, kinship-based hunter-gatherer bands where survival required internal cooperation and competition against similar rival groups. Efforts to eliminate racial discrimination are fighting against this deep biological reality.

The most significant environmental difference faced by early humans leaving Africa was that the Eurasian landmass experiences cold winters, requiring foresight, intelligence, impulse control, and resourcefulness for survival. This selective pressure caused humans in northerly areas to gradually become more intelligent and future-oriented than those who remained in the tropics, potentially explaining the higher intelligence and lower crime rates of East Asians and whites compared to Africans.

Racial differences can also be explained through r/K selection theory, which relates to reproductive strategies. The 'r' strategy involves high fertility and little parental investment, while the 'K' strategy involves lower fertility but higher investment in nurturing offspring. Humans generally are K strategizers, but black Africans lean toward a relatively 'r' strategy compared to White and Asian populations, exhibiting higher fertility (women averaging seven or eight children in recent years in sub-Saharan Africa) and tending to devote less time to their offspring. This is seen as a natural response to tropical environments where random diseases are a common cause of death, increasing the likelihood that some children will survive. In northern latitudes, the threat of winter favors a 'K' strategy, where more effort is devoted to preparing children for future challenges. Psychologist J. Philippe Rushton found that East Asians averaged traits indicative of K-strategy (larger brain size, greater intelligence, greater sexual restraint, lower crime rates), Blacks were at the r-extreme, and Whites scored in between.

Finally, the overwhelming majority of great accomplishments in history—inventions, science, exploration—have been the work of White men living in Europe or North America. This high achievement requires more than just high intelligence; East Asians, for example, are considered more conformist than Europeans, making them less likely to venture into uncharted waters where new discoveries are made.

Source 9: The Israel Lobby Wants Thomas Massie Gone. Will Voters Obey?

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) is being aggressively targeted by pro-Israel forces due to his consistent non-interventionist foreign policy stance. Pro-Israel Republican megadonors established the MAGA Kentucky super PAC with $2 million specifically to ensure Massie is ousted. Contributors included Paul Singer ($1 million), John Paulson ($250,000), and Miriam Adelson’s Preserve America PAC ($750,000). The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) has promised "unlimited" campaign spending to ensure his defeat if he runs for Senate.

Massie has been Congress’s most consistent opponent of the neoconservative/neoliberal foreign policy consensus, earning him the nickname “Mr. No,” similar to his predecessor Ron Paul. His legislative record includes introducing the War Powers Protection Act in 2013 to block unauthorized U.S. military aid to Syrian rebels, arguing that U.S. national security interests were unclear. He consistently opposed U.S. involvement in Yemen’s civil war, co-sponsoring resolutions to remove U.S. Armed Forces from unauthorized hostilities there, noting Congress never authorized the action. In 2017, he was one of only four House members to vote against a pro-NATO resolution, deeming expansion unaffordable and unwise. Regarding the Russo-Ukrainian war, Massie opposed multiple aid packages and the Lend-Lease Act, receiving an “F” grade from Republicans for Ukraine, stating that supporting the aid was "economically illiterate and morally deficient" and conscripted American taxpayers into welfare payments for a foreign government. Most recently, in June 2025, Massie co-sponsored a bipartisan War Powers Resolution to prohibit unauthorized U.S. military involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict, and he was the only Republican to criticize Trump’s strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities as "not Constitutional".

Massie’s most politically fraught positions stem from his consistent opposition to pro-Israel legislation, often being the lone Republican dissenter. He cast the sole Republican vote against a resolution opposing the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement in 2019, arguing that Congress should leave the condemnation of private boycotts to the States and the people. In 2021, he was the only Republican to vote against $1 billion in funding for Israel’s Iron Dome defense system, arguing that foreign aid bankrupts the country. AIPAC responded by running ads against him. In May 2022, Massie cast the lone dissenting vote against a resolution condemning antisemitism, tweeting that legitimate government punishes unprovoked violence but cannot legislate thought. In October 2023, he opposed a $14 billion aid package for Israel, stating that this would be extracted from working Americans through inflation and taxes, declaring, "AIPAC always gets mad when I put America first". He was also the sole member of Congress to oppose a resolution affirming Israel’s right to exist and equating anti-Zionism with antisemitism in November 2023.

President Trump has joined the opposition, branding Massie a "pathetic loser" who is "not MAGA" and should be dropped "like the plague". This hostility escalated after Massie criticized Trump’s Iran strikes and his explosive revelation during a June 2024 Tucker Carlson interview that “everybody but me has an AIPAC person” who acts like a "babysitter," exposing the systematic nature of Israeli influence in Congress. Trump’s deference to powerful Jewish donors, rather than genuine policy disagreements, is seen as the motivation for his hostility toward the most consistent non-interventionist in Congress.

AIPAC and its Super PACs demonstrate a willingness to spend unprecedented sums to eliminate critics of Israeli policy, seen in the recent $14.5 million spent opposing Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) and over $8.5 million opposing Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.). The funding often comes from Republican megadonors channeled through AIPAC, which acts to "launder" funds into Democratic primaries. Massie's upcoming primary challenge is seen as the ultimate test of whether a politician can survive the full force of this pro-Israel opposition. If Massie survives, it would mark the first crack in the façade of Zionist invulnerability; if he falls, it will confirm that American politicians can be bought and buried by the cash stockpiles of World Jewry.

Source 10: The Split (Miles Mathis)

There are visible signs of a split within the ruling class, exemplified by the conflicting Trump and Biden regimes. This split goes beyond simple window dressing, revealing a loss of control among the governors due to the exponential rise of information. The size and complexity of U.S. Intelligence agencies, especially after the post-Watergate expansion and the splitting off of DHS after 9/11, led to internal competition in resources and future plans for tyranny.

A clear indication of this is the CIA/DHS split. Trump has expressed support for the CIA but appears to despise the Cheneys, who backed DHS. Trump has shown disregard for DHS, notably by nominating a "nobody" to head the agency. Furthermore, Project 2025 includes defunding or even abolishing DHS as part of its platform.

A visible change in information control, dubbed an "invisible sea change," suggests a powerful entity is moving into the gap between the Red and Blue political factions. This is evidenced by new, slick channels appearing on platforms like YouTube that seriously question mainstream events, such as the Charlie Kirk event—videos that would have been censored previously. Although the Kirk event was likely orchestrated by the Red side of Intel to blackwash Democrats and create sympathy for Republicans, some faction is now exposing the event's cover. Since neither the Red nor the Blue political factions want to damage the "old Wurlitzer" (propaganda machine) by pointing at the rulers themselves, the entity acting against both factions must be what is called the Deep State.

Possible reasons for this Deep State action include: the top rulers deciding to be more benevolent; the rulers deciding it is politic to back off somewhat due to internal self-interests; or the action being a calculated lulling of the populace before the "final crush". A feigned benevolence can be more useful in governance than poorly cloaked malevolence, especially when using the carrot works better than the stick on a "balking mule". Given that Erika Kirk's mother works for DHS, one possibility is that if DHS ran the Kirk event, the CIA may be blowing its cover to further damage the rival agency.

Source 11: Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa (Miles Mathis)

The trajectory of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, who transitioned from being labeled one of the world's most dangerous jihadists with a $10 million bounty on his head in 2017 to becoming President of Syria and a UN delegate in 2024, is noted as a remarkable turnaround in only seven years. This transformation is especially difficult to understand given that he was installed in Syria precisely when Israel was invading it, suggesting the same people who allegedly hunted him for years put him in power. The narrative that the Syrian General Command appointed him Prime Minister and then President is undermined by the fact that Syria had been a military dictatorship since 1963, and that command lacked the authority for such appointments.

The conclusion drawn is that this scenario proves al-Sharaa has always been a CIA actor and front, and the Syrian General Command is run by the CIA. The entire "dangerous jihadist" persona is dismissed as a Hollywoodized "ruse" or "Vaudeville" created to give U.S. military intelligence something to do.

Al-Sharaa is described as the opposite of a terrorist: he is a rich boy from a prominent oil family. Wikipedia admits his father was an engineer for the Saudi ministry of petroleum, owned a real estate company, and owned grocery stores. His father’s profile is further complicated, with claims he was also an economist, researcher, and writer, and that he held advanced degrees in multiple fields including law, economics, political science, and engineering, despite allegedly being imprisoned and escaping at least once. Al-Sharaa’s brother Maher, who holds a doctorate in medical sciences, now serves as Ahmed’s Secretary-General. Al-Sharaa's uncle, Farouk al-Sharaa, who has a degree in English Literature, was Vice President of Syria from 2006 to 2014 under Assad, meaning the family was always pro-Western and pro-Ba'athist.

Source 12: ETERNAL PEACE ☙ Tuesday, September 30, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠

President Trump, in a joint press conference with Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu, announced a 20-point peace plan to resolve the contentious war in Gaza. Trump described this as potentially "one of the greatest days ever in civilization," calling the plan "eternal peace in the Middle East". This plan is already a historic achievement because nearly every Muslim nation on Earth, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Indonesia, and Pakistan, has agreed to or endorsed it, with Hamas and Iran being the only holdouts.

The framework promises an immediate ceasefire, the return of hostages (dead or alive) within 72 hours, and the freeing of thousands of Palestinian prisoners. Gaza would be transferred to a technocratic caretaker government overseen by a new Board of Peace, chaired by Trump, with former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair penciled in as a sidekick. Hamas would be offered amnesty if they disarm, or exile if they refuse. The plan includes economic incentives, such as a gusher of aid money and high-tech reconstruction contracts, coupled with Israel's security perimeter and the threat of "finishing the job" if Hamas refuses to cooperate.

U.S. corporate media coverage of this historically ambitious framework has been muted almost to the point of inaudibility, skeptically framing it as mere "principles" or a "Trump vanity project," and tucking it away behind stories about the government shutdown. Trump’s team, including Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, managed to gather all the agreements from the Gulf states over months while maintaining astonishing operational security and discipline, meaning the media never caught a glimpse of the diplomatic work. Trump has effectively replaced the entire State Department with "two guys in the back room," making the usual machinery of diplomacy look like a Potemkin village. This raises the suspicion that the old bureaucracy was designed to manage conflicts indefinitely, rather than solve them. Trump's framework demotes the United Nations to the role of glorified caterer, running convoys of bottled water and flour sacks, while the actual governance and decision-making is handled by the Board of Peace (chaired by Trump) and a U.S.-Arab stabilization force.

In separate news regarding accountability for censorship, YouTube (owned by Google) agreed to pay $24.5 million to settle a lawsuit filed by President Trump concerning the suspension of his account after January 6, 2021. This sum included $22 million for Trump’s Trust for the National Mall and $2.5 million for conservative organizations. This marks the latest in a series of settlements this year from media companies, including $25 million from Meta/Facebook, $10 million from Twitter/X, $15 million from ABC, and $16 million from 60 Minutes, totaling nearly $100 million. Trump announced the settlement, stating that this "MASSIVE victory proves Big Tech censorship has consequences". Furthermore, YouTube announced it would reinstate all accounts banned for violating pandemic-era rules intended to curb "misinformation," including "election denialism," conceding that it values conservative voices.

In another alarming domestic story, "Ian Andre Roberts," the superintendent of Iowa’s largest public school district since 2023, was arrested by ICE and subsequently lost his state license and was placed on unpaid leave. Roberts, who received a $300,000 annual salary and was described by corporate media as a "champion for racial equity," is an illegal immigrant from Guyana who had been roaming the U.S. since 1998. During his illegal residency, he acquired a driver’s license, a social security number, an online degree, a series of increasingly rewarding superintendent positions in multiple states, and had illegally voted Democrat for nearly two decades. Roberts had successfully dodged an ICE removal order issued in May 2024. He was caught with a gun, a large knife, and $3,000 in cash while attempting to flee ICE agents; illegals are prohibited from possessing firearms. The case raised national questions about how Roberts could have been illegally voting for so long and how he managed to secure a long string of high-profile jobs requiring intensive background checks.

Source 13: ☕️ NEVER MIND ☙ Monday, September 29, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠

NYC Mayor Eric Adams suddenly dropped out of the mayoral election with only one month remaining. Adams, a former cop, had taken the reins from the previous mayor, Bill de Blasio, in 2022. Adams' withdrawal leaves voters facing a choice between former Governor Andrew Cuomo (disgraced Nursing Home Killer) and Zohran Mamdani, an avowed socialist whose agenda sits leftward of Senator Bernie Sanders. Adams had slowly begun unwinding de Blasio's COVID policies and publicly complained about the burden of illegal immigrants, which led to FBI raids over poorly defined bribery allegations involving a free plane ticket to Turkey. After Democrats made it clear he was persona non grata and Trump’s DOJ dismissed the lawfare prosecution, Adams re-registered as an independent. Mamdani, born in Kampala, Uganda, and a U.S. citizen since 2018, is poised to win, and would become the City's first Muslim, Indian-Ugandan, and youngest mayor. President Trump called Adams’ withdrawal a gift to the Republican Party, suggesting that a shock like a communist taking over New York City might be necessary to "straighten [it] out".

In religious news, Pastor Voddie Baucham Jr. died at age 56 following an "emergency medical incident". Baucham was quietly influential and credited with helping fuel America’s homeschooling revolution with his observation: "We cannot continue to send our children to Caesar for their education and be surprised when they come home as Romans". Baucham’s ministry used logic and reason, appealing to thoughtful intellectuals. He defended classical Christianity, systematically deconstructed wokeism and sexual politics, and rhetorically battled against COVID fearmongering and the jabs. He concisely defended the Bible as a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses reporting supernatural events in fulfillment of specific prophecies, claiming divine origin for the writings.

The nation is currently experiencing the greatest Christian revival in memory, with the velocity increasing following the killing of Charlie Kirk. Historically, America has seen two "Great Awakenings," the first beginning in the 1730s and the second beginning around 1800, both reversing sharp declines in religious faith. The most recent and steepest decline in American religious faith began in the early 1990s, but this decline halted in 2020, the year of the Pandemic. The current revival includes a surge of young people, especially young men, returning to church, high-profile conversions, states returning the Ten Commandments to schools, and an unapologetic emphasis on Christian belief from top leaders like Vice-President JD Vance.

This revival is viewed by progressives with terror and loathing, who fear "Christian nationalism"—the combination of politics and faith. Historically, American Christians were always loudly political, with religious motivations driving movements like abolitionism, suffrage, and civil rights; the idea of strict Church-State separation forbidding religious political speech is a recent anomaly of the last 50 years. French philosopher Alexis de Tocqueville observed in the 1830s that religion "must be regarded as the first of their political institutions," regulating the state by regulating the citizens' souls. The real threat is noted as the absence of Christian participation in politics. Conflict is expected to increase alongside the public trend in faith.

In the UK, the National Health Service (NHS) promoted new "guidance" supporting first-cousin marriages, claiming the long-taboo practice offers "economic advantages" and "stronger extended family support systems". This guidance was hastily deleted following "scorching-hot backlash". This incident illustrates that "public health" is a label used by progressives to advance "stupidest and wokest ideas," such as trying to "destigmatize" a minority practice, despite the well-known fact that first-cousin marriages increase rates of birth defects, demonstrating that public health often means anti-health and anti-public sentiment.

Finally, the day after War Secretary Pete Hegseth deployed the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, to protect a federal immigration facility from Antifa rioters, the City of Portland and the State government filed a joint lawsuit to block the deployment. The state’s lawsuit invoked the Tenth Amendment, a concept usually championed by conservatives, arguing that it reserves all non-delegated powers to the states. This action forces leftists to argue for states' rights and contend with the brutal fact that they previously redefined "insurrection" (on January 6th) to mean unarmed trespass by political protestors.

The primary takeaways reveal a world grappling with escalating authoritarian control, deep-seated political and institutional fractures, and profound cultural transformations.

Key Themes:

• Rise of Authoritarian Measures: Governments are implementing drastic measures of control with significant societal impact. In Afghanistan, the Taliban has imposed a near-total communications blackout, crippling the nation's infrastructure and isolating 40 million people under the guise of morality. In Thailand, a government crackdown on financial fraud has led to the freezing of over three million bank accounts without warning, eroding public trust in the financial system and prompting a shift to cash.

• US Political and Security Instability: The United States faces multiple crises of stability and credibility. An impending government shutdown threatens to cripple national security by furloughing essential civilian personnel in defense, intelligence, and cybersecurity, leaving troops unpaid and creating strategic blind spots. Concurrently, the Trump administration is initiating a radical overhaul of the military, rebranding the Pentagon as the "Department of War" and purging "woke generals" while promising a record $1 trillion budget. This is compounded by President Trump's use of the military for extrajudicial killings of alleged drug smugglers in international waters, bypassing the entire legal process.

• Deepening Societal and Ideological Divides: Analysis suggests that societal polarization is being actively manufactured and manipulated, likened to shaking a jar of ants to incite conflict, thereby making the populace easier to subjugate. In the US political arena, this is exemplified by the unprecedented mobilization of the pro-Israel lobby (AIPAC) to oust Rep. Thomas Massie, a principled non-interventionist, revealing the profound influence of foreign interests on American politics. Further analysis posits a significant schism within US intelligence agencies, primarily between the CIA and DHS, which may be driving contradictory narratives in public information channels.

• Profound Cultural and Demographic Shifts: Data indicates significant transformations in Western societies. European migration patterns show high concentrations of foreign-born populations in Western and Northern Europe, with Germany hosting 16.9 million immigrants. In education, a "digital native" generation (Gen Z) is reportedly losing the cognitive skill of handwriting, with 40% struggling to communicate effectively by hand. Parallel to this, a significant Christian revival is reportedly underway in the United States, particularly among young people, reversing decades of decline and prompting escalating pushback from progressive factions.

• Major Geopolitical Maneuvers: The Trump administration has unveiled an ambitious 20-point peace plan for Gaza, reportedly securing endorsements from nearly every major Muslim nation except Iran and Hamas. This diplomatic effort, largely developed in secret, aims to establish a technocratic government in Gaza under a US-led "Board of Peace," effectively sidelining the United Nations.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Escalating Authoritarianism and State Control

A recurring theme is the implementation of sweeping state-level actions that curtail individual freedoms and disrupt societal functions under the pretext of security or morality.

1.1. Afghanistan's Nationwide Communications Blackout

On Monday, September 29, 2025, Taliban authorities severed Afghanistan's fibre-optic backbone, plunging the country of 40 million people into a total communications blackout.

• Scope of Shutdown: Internet and mobile connectivity were reduced to less than 1% of normal operations, according to the internet watchdog NetBlocks.

• Official Justification: Officials framed the move as a morality measure to curb "evils" like pornography. A spokesperson for the Balkh province governor stated the ban was meant to curb access to "pornographic content inside Afghanistan" and that an alternative "will be built within the country for necessities.”

• Impact: The shutdown has had a boundless effect, halting air travel, border operations, banking, commerce, international trade, tourism, schools, hospitals, and media. The UN has warned of severe economic and humanitarian risks.

• Humanitarian Crisis: Aid agencies are forced to rely on limited radio and satellite links, slowing life-saving work. The blackout poses a critical risk to women and girls who have been forced into online spaces for services denied to them offline.

• Information Vacuum: Analysts suggest such shutdowns can be used by authorities to detain critics, conduct raids, or implement policies that would otherwise face public pushback, allowing for total narrative control.

1.2. Thailand's Mass Bank Account Freeze

The Bank of Thailand has frozen over three million bank accounts in a nationwide crackdown on financial fraud, which began in August 2025. This action has affected ordinary citizens, small businesses, and foreign residents without prior warning.

• Government Action: The initiative, a collaboration between the Bank of Thailand (BoT), the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, and the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, was streamlined under the premise of safeguarding the banking sector.

• Public Reaction: The sudden freezes have caused widespread panic and a loss of confidence in the banking system. People fear their accounts will be targeted next, leading to a significant shift back to using cash. Retailers are increasingly refusing card payments.

• Broader Trend: This event is not isolated. Vietnam recently erased 86 million unverified bank accounts as part of a similar trend where governments demand banks track all transactions using biometric data to prevent capital from escaping taxation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. US Political, Military, and Security Landscape

The United States is experiencing significant internal turmoil, characterized by political gridlock, a radical military restructuring, contentious foreign policy actions, and deep institutional fractures.

2.1. National Security Risks of a Government Shutdown

A potential US government shutdown poses a direct and significant threat to national security, turning political dysfunction into tangible danger.

• Military Morale and Readiness: Active-duty personnel will continue their missions but without pay, severely impacting morale. The furloughing of hundreds of thousands of civilian Defense Department employees—who handle equipment maintenance and logistics—means the military will operate on "borrowed time," burning through reserves.

• Defense Industrial Base: Contract awards and payments to the defense industrial base will be delayed. While an annoyance for large contractors, this could be a "death sentence" for smaller firms operating on tight margins.

• Cybersecurity and Intelligence Blind Spots: The Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) relies on civilian staff who would be furloughed, delaying patches and warnings. Intelligence collection will be weakened as analysts, contractors, and translators are impacted, reducing the ability to spot emerging threats.

• Domestic Infrastructure Risks: The FAA would halt the hiring and training of air traffic controllers, and TSA and border officials would work without pay. Federal oversight for critical infrastructure, including nuclear plant security and dam inspections, could also be slowed.

• Erosion of Credibility: Adversaries view shutdowns as a sign of weakness and division, eroding the credibility that is a cornerstone of American deterrence. The situation is described as a "self-inflicted wound that makes the US less secure."

2.2. The Trump Administration's Military Overhaul

President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth convened a rare gathering of over 800 generals and admirals at Marine Corps Base Quantico to announce a fundamental reshaping of the US military.

• Rebranding and Mission: The Pentagon is being rebranded as the "Department of War," a symbolic move President Trump claims "is going to stop wars" by projecting deterrence.

• Purge of "Woke Generals": Hegseth declared the era of "woke generals" is over, citing the recent firings of General Charles Brown Jr. and Admiral Lisa Franketti as proof he would "purge a leadership class of broken culture." He warned any officer whose "heart sink" at his words to "do the honorable thing and resign."

• New Policies:

    ◦ Fitness tests will be pegged to male standards only.

    ◦ Grooming rules will be tightened.

    ◦ Definitions of "toxic leadership" and "bullying" will be rewritten to grant commanders more latitude and prevent "politically motivated complaints."

    ◦ Combat standards will be gender-neutral, with Hegseth stating, "If women can make it, excellent. If not, it is what it is. If that means no women qualify for some jobs, so be it."

• Massive Budget Increase: Trump pledged a record $1 trillion investment in the military for 2026, promising it will be "stronger, tougher, faster, fiercer, and more powerful than it has ever been before."

2.3. Extrajudicial Killings and Foreign Policy

President Trump has ordered a series of "kinetic strikes" by the US military against alleged drug traffickers in international waters, which critics label as extrajudicial murder.

• Timeline of Strikes: Three lethal strikes were carried out on boats in international waters on September 2, September 15, and September 19, 2025.

• Legal Critique: These actions bypassed all legal due process, including search, seizure, arrest, trial, and sentencing. The author of "Murderers for Trump" argues this makes Trump "judge, jury, and executioner."

• Precedent: The actions are linked to Trump's previous praise for former Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, who was charged by the International Criminal Court for acts including murder against alleged drug dealers and users. Trump told Duterte he was doing an "unbelievable job on the drug problem."

• Justification: The targets were labeled "narco-terrorists," a term the author dismisses as a bogus justification similar to the "war on terrorism."

2.4. The Campaign to Unseat Rep. Thomas Massie

A powerful coalition of pro-Israel donors and political figures, including President Trump, has mobilized to oust Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Congress's most consistent non-interventionist.

• Financial Mobilization:

    ◦ The MAGA Kentucky super PAC was created with $2 million specifically to defeat Massie.

    ◦ Major donors include Paul Singer ($1 million), John Paulson ($250,000), and Miriam Adelson’s Preserve America PAC ($750,000).

    ◦ The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) has promised "unlimited" spending to defeat Massie if he runs for Senate.

• Massie's Record: His "Mr. No" reputation stems from consistent votes against foreign entanglements in Syria, Yemen, Ukraine, and Iran, as well as opposition to NATO expansion.

• Conflict with Pro-Israel Interests: Massie has been the lone Republican voting against key pro-Israel legislation, including resolutions opposing the BDS movement, funding for the Iron Dome, and resolutions condemning antisemitism.

• Trump's Reversal: In 2022, Trump endorsed Massie as a "Conservative Warrior." Following Massie's criticism of Trump's strikes on Iran and his public statements about AIPAC's influence, Trump branded him a "pathetic loser" who should be dropped "like the plague."

• AIPAC's Influence: Massie stated in an interview that "everybody but me has an AIPAC person... It’s like your babysitter... who is always talking to you for AIPAC." This revelation has intensified the backlash against him.

2.5. The Theory of a US Intelligence Split

An analysis by Miles Mathis posits a growing schism within the US intelligence community, primarily between the CIA and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which could explain contradictory public narratives.

• Evidence of a Split:

    ◦ President Trump has shown strong support for the CIA (speaking at Langley) while expressing disdain for DHS, nominating a figure seen as a "nobody" (Kristi Noem) to lead it and supporting Project 2025's goal to defund or abolish the agency.

    ◦ The analysis connects DHS to "the blackest of the black hats" like Dick Cheney, who helped found it.

• Impact on Information: This internal conflict may be leading to factions blowing the cover on each other's operations. The analysis suggests that the public questioning of the staged Charlie Kirk assassination on platforms like YouTube is not coming from the "Blue" (Democrat-aligned) side of intelligence but from a third faction—possibly the CIA undermining a DHS-run operation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. Societal and Demographic Transformations

Significant shifts are occurring in Western demographics, fundamental skills, and the scientific understanding of human differences.

3.1. European Migration Data

According to Eurostat data as of January 1, 2024, migration has significantly reshaped European demographics, particularly in Western and Northern nations.

• Data Caveats: The data, sourced from administrative registers, does not include illegal immigrants and only counts those residing in a country for over 12 months. The UK is not included due to Brexit.

3.2. Decline of Handwriting in Generation Z

Research suggests that Gen Z (born late 1990s-early 2010s) may be the first generation to lose the ability to write by hand, a skill central to human communication for 5,500 years.

• Key Statistic: A University of Stavanger study reports that approximately 40% of Gen Z struggle to communicate effectively by hand.

• Cognitive Impact: Experts warn this is not trivial, as handwriting is linked to cognitive development skills such as memory, comprehension, and the ability to form coherent arguments.

• Educational Observations: Professor Nedret Kiliceri notes that even university students lack knowledge of basic handwriting rules, avoid long sentences, and no longer write coherent paragraphs, preferring isolated sentences influenced by social media.

3.3. Analysis of Race and Racial Differences

An article from The Unz Review presents a detailed, albeit controversial, summary of scientific and statistical claims regarding racial differences.

• Core Theses:

    ◦ Racial differences are a natural product of evolution as humans migrated out of Africa and adapted to different environments (e.g., cold winters).

    ◦ No race is superior per se; abilities are trait-specific. For example, West Africans are cited as being superior in sprinting due to a combination of physiological traits.

• Intelligence (IQ): The article cites data on average IQ scores among different racial groups:

    ◦ Black Africans: ~70

    ◦ American Blacks: ~85

    ◦ White Europeans: ~100

    ◦ Northeast Asians: ~105

    ◦ Ashkenazi Jews: ~112

• Crime Rates: Citing FBI data, the article reports significant disparities in US crime rates:

    ◦ Black Americans were six times more likely to commit murder than non-blacks (2013).

    ◦ In NYC (2014), blacks were 31 times more likely than whites to be arrested for murder.

    ◦ Blacks are about 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white person than vice-versa.

• r/K Selection Theory: The article applies J. Philippe Rushton's theory, suggesting races can be placed on a spectrum. East Asians are presented as more 'K-selected' (lower fertility, higher parental investment, greater social organization), while black Africans are presented as more 'r-selected' (higher fertility, lower parental investment), with whites in between. This is framed as an evolutionary response to environmental pressures like disease prevalence versus the need for long-term planning to survive winters.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Cultural and Ideological Dynamics

The current landscape is marked by intense ideological conflict, manufactured polarization, and a significant religious revival clashing with secular progressive movements.

4.1. The "Shaking the Jar" Theory of Societal Polarization

An article on LewRockwell.com presents an analogy by Shera Starr to explain modern societal conflict.

• The Analogy: If red ants and black ants are placed in a jar, they coexist peacefully. But if the jar is violently shaken, they will fight to the death, each believing the other is the enemy. The real enemy, however, is the person who shook the jar.

• The Argument: This is presented as "exactly what’s happening in society today." Those who control the media are identified as the ones "shaking the jar" by creating and amplifying divisions (e.g., Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. white, Man vs. woman).

• The Goal: The purpose of this manufactured polarization is "divide and conquer." The more a people can be made to fight each other, the easier it is to subjugate them. The author warns that this trend is expected to become "far worse."

4.2. A Third Great Awakening in America

Multiple sources report a significant Christian revival in the United States, reversing a decades-long decline in religious affiliation and sparking fierce ideological opposition.

• Reversal of Decline: After nearly 90% of US adults identified as Christian in 1990, the figure steadily fell until 2020, the year of the pandemic, when the decline halted. A surge in faith, particularly among young people and young men, has accelerated since the assassination of Christian activist Charlie Kirk.

• Historical Context: The current trend is being compared to two previous "Great Awakenings" in American history (1730s and post-1800), which both followed periods of low church attendance and reversed spiritual decline.

• Prominent Figures: The movement is associated with the high-profile defiance of lockdown orders by pastors like the late John MacArthur and the intellectual, anti-woke arguments of the late Pastor Voddie Baucham Jr., who died at 56 after a heart attack.

• Progressive Pushback: The revival is met with what is described as "terror and loathing" from progressives. The left's focus on combating "Christian nationalism" is identified as a reaction to Christians refusing to keep their faith separate from politics. This conflict is escalating, with reports of church shootings by attackers identifying with "Trantifa" (transgender Antifa).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Major Geopolitical Developments

5.1. Trump's Gaza Peace Plan

President Trump, alongside Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu, has announced a 20-point peace plan for Gaza, which has already received widespread endorsement from the Muslim world.

• Key Provisions:

    ◦ An immediate ceasefire.

    ◦ Return of all hostages (dead or alive) within 72 hours and the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners.

    ◦ Gaza to be handed over to a technocratic caretaker government.

    ◦ Establishment of a "Board of Peace" chaired by Trump, with Tony Blair as a key figure.

    ◦ Deployment of a US-Arab stabilization force.

    ◦ Amnesty for Hamas if they disarm, exile if they do not.

    ◦ Massive aid, high-tech reconstruction contracts, and a special economic zone.

• Unprecedented Support: The plan has reportedly been endorsed by Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Indonesia, and Pakistan. The Palestinian Authority has "welcomed" it. Only Hamas and Iran are noted as holdouts.

• Operational Secrecy: The plan was developed over months with no leaks to the media, demonstrating what is described as "astonishing discipline and operational security" by Trump's team, led by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff.

• Sidelining the UN: The plan demotes the UN to a logistical role of delivering aid, with all political and security decisions handled by the new US-led Board of Peace. The analysis suggests the traditional diplomatic bureaucracy was designed to manage conflict, not solve it, a system Trump has now bypassed.

5.2. The Installation of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa in Syria

An analysis by Miles Mathis argues that the rapid rise of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa from a wanted jihadist to the President of Syria is proof that he has always been a CIA asset.

• Contradictory Narrative: Al-Sharaa went from having a $10 million bounty on his head in 2017 to being installed as President in December 2024, coinciding with an Israeli invasion of Syria.

• Elite Family Background: Contrary to the "dangerous jihadist" persona, al-Sharaa comes from a wealthy and powerful family.

    ◦ His father was an engineer for the Saudi ministry of petroleum, a real estate owner, and held advanced degrees.

    ◦ His brother Maher holds a doctorate of medical sciences.

    ◦ His uncle, Farouk al-Sharaa, was the Vice President of Syria under Assad from 2006-2014.

• Conclusion: This elite, pro-Western background makes the story of him being a genuine revolutionary leader who overthrew the government implausible. The author concludes the "whole dangerous jihadist thing was just Hollywood" and that al-Sharaa was installed to run Syria on behalf of US/Israeli interests.

Briefing on Key Global and Societal Trends

Executive Summary

This document synthesizes critical insights from recent analyses of global events, domestic US politics, and societal shifts.

East Asians are presented as more 'K-selected' (lower fertility, higher parental investment, greater social organization), while black Africans are presented as more 'r-selected' (higher fertility, lower parental investment), with whites in between. This is framed as an evolutionary response to environmental pressures like disease prevalence versus the need for long-term planning to survive winters.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Cultural and Ideological Dynamics

The current landscape is marked by intense ideological conflict, manufactured polarization, and a significant religious revival clashing with secular progressive movements.

4.1. The "Shaking the Jar" Theory of Societal Polarization

An article on LewRockwell.com presents an analogy by Shera Starr to explain modern societal conflict.

• The Analogy: If red ants and black ants are placed in a jar, they coexist peacefully. But if the jar is violently shaken, they will fight to the death, each believing the other is the enemy. The real enemy, however, is the person who shook the jar.

• The Argument: This is presented as "exactly what’s happening in society today." Those who control the media are identified as the ones "shaking the jar" by creating and amplifying divisions (e.g., Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. white, Man vs. woman).

• The Goal: The purpose of this manufactured polarization is "divide and conquer." The more a people can be made to fight each other, the easier it is to subjugate them. The author warns that this trend is expected to become "far worse."

4.2. A Third Great Awakening in America

Multiple sources report a significant Christian revival in the United States, reversing a decades-long decline in religious affiliation and sparking fierce ideological opposition.

• Reversal of Decline: After nearly 90% of US adults identified as Christian in 1990, the figure steadily fell until 2020, the year of the pandemic, when the decline halted. A surge in faith, particularly among young people and young men, has accelerated since the assassination of Christian activist Charlie Kirk.

• Historical Context: The current trend is being compared to two previous "Great Awakenings" in American history (1730s and post-1800), which both followed periods of low church attendance and reversed spiritual decline.

• Prominent Figures: The movement is associated with the high-profile defiance of lockdown orders by pastors like the late John MacArthur and the intellectual, anti-woke arguments of the late Pastor Voddie Baucham Jr., who died at 56 after a heart attack.

• Progressive Pushback: The revival is met with what is described as "terror and loathing" from progressives. The left's focus on combating "Christian nationalism" is identified as a reaction to Christians refusing to keep their faith separate from politics. This conflict is escalating, with reports of church shootings by attackers identifying with "Trantifa" (transgender Antifa).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Major Geopolitical Developments

5.1. Trump's Gaza Peace Plan

President Trump, alongside Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu, has announced a 20-point peace plan for Gaza, which has already received widespread endorsement from the Muslim world.

• Key Provisions:

    ◦ An immediate ceasefire.

    ◦ Return of all hostages (dead or alive) within 72 hours and the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners.

    ◦ Gaza to be handed over to a technocratic caretaker government.

    ◦ Establishment of a "Board of Peace" chaired by Trump, with Tony Blair as a key figure.

    ◦ Deployment of a US-Arab stabilization force.

    ◦ Amnesty for Hamas if they disarm, exile if they do not.

    ◦ Massive aid, high-tech reconstruction contracts, and a special economic zone.

• Unprecedented Support: The plan has reportedly been endorsed by Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Indonesia, and Pakistan. The Palestinian Authority has "welcomed" it. Only Hamas and Iran are noted as holdouts.

• Operational Secrecy: The plan was developed over months with no leaks to the media, demonstrating what is described as "astonishing discipline and operational security" by Trump's team, led by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff.

• Sidelining the UN: The plan demotes the UN to a logistical role of delivering aid, with all political and security decisions handled by the new US-led Board of Peace. The analysis suggests the traditional diplomatic bureaucracy was designed to manage conflict, not solve it, a system Trump has now bypassed.

5.2. The Installation of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa in Syria

An analysis by Miles Mathis argues that the rapid rise of Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa from a wanted jihadist to the President of Syria is proof that he has always been a CIA asset.

• Contradictory Narrative: Al-Sharaa went from having a $10 million bounty on his head in 2017 to being installed as President in December 2024, coinciding with an Israeli invasion of Syria.

• Elite Family Background: Contrary to the "dangerous jihadist" persona, al-Sharaa comes from a wealthy and powerful family.

    ◦ His father was an engineer for the Saudi ministry of petroleum, a real estate owner, and held advanced degrees.

    ◦ His brother Maher holds a doctorate of medical sciences.

    ◦ His uncle, Farouk al-Sharaa, was the Vice President of Syria under Assad from 2006-2014.

• Conclusion: This elite, pro-Western background makes the story of him being a genuine revolutionary leader who overthrew the government implausible. The author concludes the "whole dangerous jihadist thing was just Hollywood" and that al-Sharaa was installed to run Syria on behalf of US/Israeli interests.

Global Instability and Systemic Risk: An Analysis of Contemporary Political, Digital, and Societal Fragmentation

A Comprehensive Strategic Assessment Prepared for Executive Leadership

Date: October 1, 2025 Prepared by: Strategic Intelligence & Global Risk Unit

PAGE 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report synthesizes contemporary geopolitical, digital, and societal friction points, highlighting profound shifts in governance, communication, and social cohesion globally. Key observations indicate an accelerated trend toward digital fragility, heightened political polarization driven by media manipulation, and widespread governmental overreach.

Key Findings:

• Digital Centralization Risk: Total communications blackouts (Afghanistan) and banking system crises (Thailand) demonstrate the extreme vulnerability inherent in centralized digital dependence, impacting commerce, humanitarian aid, and national security.

• Geopolitical Alignment and Interventionism: The U.S. political system remains heavily influenced by external lobbies, notably the pro-Israel establishment, which utilizes significant financial resources to manage and suppress non-interventionist congressional voices. This dynamic underpins continued foreign entanglements despite internal political divisions.

• Deep State Fragmentation: The U.S. Intelligence Community shows signs of a deepening "split," with factions potentially utilizing media leaks and controlled information dumps to undermine rivals (e.g., CIA vs. DHS) and advance internal agendas.

• Accelerating Polarization: Societal division is deliberately induced and amplified by those controlling media narratives, reducing mutual tolerance among populations and facilitating greater subjugation. This polarization manifests across ideological, racial, and social lines (Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. White, Man vs. Woman).

• Erosion of Core Cognitive Skills: A significant portion of the younger generation (Gen Z) is losing the ability to write by hand (approximately 40%), a development linked to declines in memory, comprehension, and the capacity to form coherent arguments due to digital reliance.

Strategic Outlook: The interplay between technological over-dependence and political manipulation suggests a turbulent future where civilizational stability depends on understanding which external forces are "shaking the jar" of internal conflicts. The resilience of fundamental systems—including banking, national security, and critical infrastructure—is compromised by both intentional attacks and internal governmental dysfunction.

PAGE 2: INTRODUCTION & METHODOLOGY

1.0 Report Objectives and Scope

This assessment is compiled to provide executive insight into several seemingly disparate global events that collectively reveal structural fragility and shifts in power dynamics occurring in late 2025. These events span communications infrastructure collapse, financial governance crises, political interventionism, and cognitive degradation, often framed through non-traditional media sources arguing against mainstream narratives.

The methodology involves synthesizing primary facts and explicit analytical commentary presented within the provided intelligence streams. Four key thematic areas anchor this analysis:

1. Digital and Infrastructure Vulnerability

2. Geopolitical Conflict and Interventionism

3. Societal Cohesion, Race, and Identity Dynamics

4. Political System Integrity and External Influence

1.1 The Context of Information Control

A critical element across all observed domains is the deliberate control or suppression of information. News reporting today is often presented as "Indoctrination Central," characterized by unceasing diatribes against opposing political factions rather than objective analysis. The entities funding or controlling the media are identified as the source of societal polarization, aiming to facilitate greater subjugation by making people fight each other.

Conversely, reliance on traditional infrastructure is viewed as precarious. For instance, the internet, which has created dependencies, can be switched off without warning, resulting in an "information vacuum" that allows for total narrative control. The ability of a whole country to be "switched off" sets a "worrying precedent".

PAGE 3: SECTION I: DIGITAL FRAGILITY AND GOVERNANCE OVERREACH

2.1 Case Study: Afghanistan Communications Blackout

On Monday, September 29, 2025, Afghanistan entered a total communications blackout. Taliban authorities cut the country’s fiber-optic backbone, plunging internet and mobile connectivity to less than 1% of normal operations. This decision, framed by officials as a morality measure to curb "evils" like pornography, follows weeks of progressively severing fiber links province by province.

Operational and Humanitarian Impact: The effective impact of the nationwide switch-off is described as "boundless".

• Commerce and Daily Life: Banking, payment networks, customs, media, schools, and supply chains have stalled. Kabul residents report being "blind" without phones and internet for day-to-day lives.

• International Disruption: Air travel halted without warning, affecting Turkish airlines flying into Kabul. Border operations, international trade, and tourism are cut off.

• Humanitarian Crisis: The UN warned of severe economic and humanitarian risks, noting that critical healthcare, payments, and information access are compromised. Aid agencies are reduced to relying on radio and limited satellite links, slowing life-saving work and complicating security coordination.

• Risk to Foreigners: Foreign tourists (over 3,000 visited in Q1 2025) are stranded with canceled flights, offline land borders, and no means to contact families or embassies, facing "no support whatsoever".

This information vacuum raises concerns that authorities may be using the darkness to conduct raids, detain critics, or push through policy without outside visibility.

2.2 Case Study: Centralized Banking Crisis in Thailand

Governmental efforts to control financial transactions via digital means have precipitated a banking crisis in Thailand. The Bank of Thailand (BoT), in conjunction with the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, has frozen over three million bank accounts in a crackdown on financial fraud since August 2025.

Consequences of Overreach:

• Loss of Access: Accounts were frozen "instantaneously without warning". Citizens were locked out, losing the ability to purchase essentials like gas or groceries.

• Public Confidence Collapse: This sudden freezing has caused panic, leading to retailers demanding cash payments, as they fear their own accounts might be targeted next. People are removing themselves from the financial system entirely due to fear of arbitrary removal.

• Surveillance Infrastructure: Thailand is cited as a case study for the use of biometric data to monitor and scrutinize every banking transaction. Governments intend these provisions to prevent capital from escaping taxation and the financial radar.

• Regional Precedent: This phenomenon is not isolated; Vietnam recently erased 86 million unverified bank accounts. Furthermore, past warnings included Kuwait threatening to freeze accounts of residents who do not register biometric fingerprints.

PAGE 4: SECTION I (Cont.) & INTERIM OBSERVATIONS

2.3 Societal Dependence and Cognitive Erosion

The pervasive adoption of digital technology is linked to a decline in traditional skills crucial for cognitive development.

• Handwriting Skills Decline: New research suggests that Generation Z (born late 1990s to early 2010s) may be the first generation to functionally lose handwriting. A University of Stavanger study reports that approximately 40% of young people struggle to communicate effectively by hand.

• Cognitive and Communication Impacts: Handwriting is key to cognitive development, linked specifically to memory and comprehension, engaging the brain differently than typing. Professors note that students increasingly avoid coherent paragraphs, preferring isolated sentences, an influence attributed to social media.

• Digital Replacement: Keyboards and touch screens have replaced pen and paper, leading some experts to believe Gen Z may not master handwriting at a "functional level".

2.4 Interim Conclusion: Systemic Vulnerability

Digital systems, while enabling "modern convenience," are exposing populations to immediate control by "power-crazed psychopaths". Whether through deliberate national communications shutdown (Afghanistan) or financial system expulsion (Thailand), centralized digital systems create extreme dependence that can be weaponized against populations, limiting personal freedoms and international commerce.

PAGE 5: SECTION II: GEOPOLITICAL VECTORS OF CONFLICT

3.1 U.S. National Security Risks from Government Shutdown

Political gridlock in Washington threatens a U.S. government shutdown, creating real dangers for national security, which foreign adversaries are closely monitoring for signs of weakness.

Critical Security Consequences:

• Military Readiness and Morale: Active duty personnel continue missions but without pay, impacting morale, particularly for enlisted members supporting families.

• Civilian Defense Backbone: Hundreds of thousands of civilian Defense Department employees (labeled the War Department) could be furloughed, disrupting equipment maintenance and logistics. Historically, shutdowns delay maintenance, postpone training, and slow weapons testing, eroding overall force readiness.

• Cyber Blind Spots: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) relies on civilian staff to monitor threats. Furloughs mean patches and warnings could be delayed, exposing the U.S. to hackers.

• Intelligence Gaps: While high-priority collection continues, support structures—analysts, contractors maintaining systems, and translators—may be affected, weakening the ability to spot threats and brief policymakers in real time.

• Homeland Infrastructure: Shutdowns would halt the hiring and training of air traffic controllers and delay safety inspections, potentially leading to increased congestion and higher risk in the skies. Critical facility oversight, such as nuclear plant security reviews, could also be slowed.

• Deterrence Erosion: Adversaries view dysfunction in Washington as a signal of weakness and opportunity, eroding America's credibility, which is the cornerstone of deterrence.

3.2 Restructuring the U.S. Military: The Cultural Reset

A major internal shakeup in the U.S. military is underway, spearheaded by President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, aiming to transform the armed forces into a "leaner, more battle ready department of war".

• End of the "Woke" Era: Hegseth declared the era of "woke generals" over, indicting decades of "drift" where officers were promoted for "diversity quotas and historic firsts rather than merit". He pointed to the firings of General Charles Brown Jr. and Admiral Lisa Franketti as proof he would "purge a leadership class of broken culture".

• Restoring Discipline: Reforms include pegging fitness tests to male standards only, tightening grooming rules, and granting commanders more latitude to enforce discipline. Definitions of "toxic leadership and bullying" are being rewritten, arguing that "liberal policy protections against abuse had neutered the chain of command".

• Gender Standards: Hegseth insisted on having one standard for combat readiness, regardless of gender.

• Symbolic Change and Investment: Trump rebranded the Pentagon as the Department of War, defending the choice as a symbolic restoration intended to project deterrence. Trump pledged a record $1 trillion investment in the military in 2026.

PAGE 6: SECTION II (Cont.)

3.3 Foreign Policy and Extrajudicial Actions

The current administration has demonstrated a readiness to engage in lethal extrajudicial actions globally.

• Drug Trafficking Strikes: President Trump ordered the U.S. military to conduct "kinetic strikes" against vessels in international waters transporting illegal narcotics heading to the U.S.. Multiple lethal strikes occurred in September, resulting in the killing of "terrorists".

• Lack of Due Process: These actions constitute "extrajudicial murder" as they occurred without search, seizure, arrest, or trial, and the vessels posed no immediate threat to American territory. Drug smuggling is classified as a criminal offense, not an act of war requiring military response.

• War on Drugs/Terrorism: Labeling those killed as "narco-terrorists" serves to excuse these actions. It is argued that the "war on drugs is just as bogus as the war on terrorism," both contributing to the development of a "national security, police state".

3.4 The Proposed Gaza "Eternal Peace" Framework

A significant foreign policy development was President Trump's announcement of a 20-point peace plan for Gaza, aiming for "eternal peace in the Middle East". This plan achieved historic consensus among most Muslim nations globally.

Plan Components and Reception:

• Broad Support: Endorsements came from Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Indonesia, and Pakistan, and was even "welcomed" by the Palestinian Authority. Hamas and Iran were the only reported holdouts.

• Key Terms: The plan includes an immediate ceasefire, hostage return (dead or alive) within 72 hours, and the release of thousands of Palestinian prisoners.

• Governance and Reconstruction: Gaza would be managed by a technocratic caretaker government under a new "Board of Peace" chaired by Trump, with Tony Blair penciled in as a sidekick. A U.S.-Arab stabilization force would maintain order, complemented by reconstruction contracts and a special economic zone.

• Media Coverage: U.S. corporate media coverage of this potential breakthrough was "muted almost to the point of inaudibility," skeptically framing it as mere "principles" or a "Trump vanity project".

• Diplomacy Shift: The plan highlights the effectiveness of Trump's small team (Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff), who bypassed the traditional, multi-billion dollar UN bureaucracy and Foggy Bottom machinery, suggesting the old system was designed to "manage" conflicts, not "solve" them. The UN's role is demoted to "glorified caterer," handling aid convoys.

PAGE 7: SECTION III: SOCIETAL POLARIZATION AND RACE DYNAMICS

4.1 Engineered Conflict: The "Shaking of the Jar"

The polarization observed across First World countries is deliberate, explained metaphorically by the "ants in a jar" analogy: if a jar of red and black ants is shaken, they fight each other, when the real enemy is the person who shook the jar.

• Source of Polarization: Those who control the media are identified as the source of this polarization. Objective information is replaced by indoctrination, with networks running unceasing diatribes against opposing parties.

• Objective of Control: The goal of polarizing people is subjugation. By making people fight each other (Liberal vs. Conservative, Black vs. White), the ruling powers make themselves easier to control. This pressure is expected to intensify, requiring citizens to recognize the manufactured conflict.

4.2 Race, Intelligence, and Evolutionary Differences

Analysis of racial differences is highly sensitive but relies on evolutionary biology and historical data points to explain contemporary social trends.

4.2.1 Origins and Development: Human beings originated in Africa 2-3 million years ago and spread out, encountering new environments that led to evolutionary differentiation. The emergence of different races is seen as a natural product of differing evolutionary histories.

4.2.2 Intelligence Differences:

• Average intelligence disparities are found globally. American average Black IQ is cited as approximately 85, compared to average White IQ of 100.

• Global averages are cited as Black Africans around 70 IQ, Australian Aborigines at 62, Northeast Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Koreans) at 105, and Ashkenazi Jews possibly as high as 112.

• These differences are attributed to genetic factors and evolutionary selection pressure. For example, the selective pressure of cold winters in northern latitudes favored qualities like intelligence, resourcefulness, foresight, and impulse control, leading to higher average intelligence and lower crime rates among Whites and East Asians compared to Africans.

PAGE 8: SECTION III (Cont.)

4.2.3 Athletic Performance and Biology: Differences are visible in athletic performance: American basketball is dominated by Blacks, while Olympic table tennis is dominated by East Asians.

• Sprinting Dominance: West Africans excel at sprinting due to multiple traits compared to Whites and Asians, including longer legs, narrower hips, lower body fat, higher quantity of fast-twitch muscle tissue, and higher testosterone levels.

4.2.4 Crime Rates: Detailed FBI statistics reveal racial disparities in crime rates in America:

• In 2013, Black Americans were six times more likely than non-Blacks to commit murder.

• In New York City (2014), Blacks were 31 times more likely than Whites to be arrested for murder; Hispanics were over 12 times more likely.

• Blacks are about 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a White person than vice-versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.

4.2.5 Kin Preference and Altruism: Efforts to eliminate "racial discrimination"—the tendency to prefer one’s own race—are fighting a "deeply rooted fact of our human nature".

• Biological Basis: This preference is a product of evolutionary history, where survival depended on cooperation within a kinship group and suspicion of outside groups. This behavior is observed in three-month-old infants, neural activity (amygdala), and comparative reactions to pain.

• Williams Syndrome: The only people who seem to lack preference for their own race suffer from Williams Syndrome, a condition linked to being "hypersocial" but also usually retarded.

• Current Context: Whites are almost exclusively asked not to prefer their own race, while other groups are permitted to organize exclusively, effectively disarming Whites in a competitive world.

4.3 European Migration Patterns

Migration trends demonstrate a significant demographic imbalance across Europe.

• In absolute numbers, Germany has the most immigrants in Europe (16.9 million), accounting for one-quarter of all foreign-born residents in the EU. This inflow is driven by an aging population (median age 47) and a robust manufacturing sector. Only 37% of these arrivals originate within the EU.

• In proportion to population, Liechtenstein tops the list (70%), with Luxembourg (51%) and Malta (31%) also highly dependent on immigrants. These countries, known for small domestic workforces and favorable tax regimes, rely predominantly on non-EU migrants.

• East-West Divide: Western and Northern Europe average immigrant shares above 15%, whereas Eastern states like Poland (3%) and Romania (3%) remain below 5%. This reflects the historical East-West migration path drawn by higher living standards and better job markets in the West.

• Data Limitations: Migration data primarily rely on administrative registers and exclude immigrants who entered illegally.

PAGE 9: SECTION IV: POLITICAL SYSTEM INTEGRITY AND EXTERNAL INFLUENCE

5.1 The Israel Lobby vs. Thomas Massie: A Test of Political Integrity

The effort by powerful pro-Israel Republican megadonors and lobbying groups to defeat Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) highlights the extreme financial influence exerted on U.S. foreign policy.

Massie's Record of Opposition: Massie has established himself as Congress’s most consistent non-interventionist since Ron Paul. His dissenting votes include:

• Voting against unauthorized U.S. military aid to Syrian rebels.

• Consistently opposing U.S. involvement in Yemen’s civil war.

• Voting against NATO expansion.

• Opposing the Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act and multiple aid packages.

• Being the only Republican to vote against $1 billion in funding for Israel’s Iron Dome.

• Casting the lone vote against a resolution condemning antisemitism (May 2022).

• Being the sole Republican to vote against affirming Israel’s right to exist (November 2023).

Lobby Mobilization: The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) has promised an "unlimited" campaign budget to defeat Massie if he runs for Senate. Donors contributing millions to the anti-Massie effort include Paul Singer, John Paulson, and Miriam Adelson’s Preserve America PAC.

Presidential Opposition: President Trump, despite his anti-"endless wars" claims, has joined the effort, branding Massie a "pathetic loser" who should be dropped "like the plague". This opposition intensified after Massie criticized Trump’s Iran strikes and revealed the systematic nature of Israeli influence, stating that "everybody but me has an AIPAC person" assigned to them, casually referred to as their "AIPAC guy" or "babysitter".

The Stakes: Massie’s race is seen as the "ultimate test" of whether any principled politician can withstand the full force of pro-Israel opposition. If Massie falls, it will confirm that American politicians can be "bought and buried by World Jewry’s limitless stockpiles of cash".

5.2 U.S. Intelligence Community Fragmentation

Evidence suggests a split within the U.S. Intelligence community, exceeding mere political window dressing, with factions competing over resources and future plans for tyranny.

• The CIA/DHS Divide: The divide is visible through the conflict between the CIA and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Trump has shown disregard for DHS, nominating a "nobody" to head it and including defunding/abolishing DHS in Project 2025.

• Information Warfare: Factions within Intel are utilizing non-traditional channels (like YouTube, Rogan, Infowars) to "blow the cover" of events run by rival factions, such as the assassination of Charlie Kirk, which was allegedly run by the "Red side of Intel". This suggests a powerful, perhaps "Deep State," entity is thwarting the immediate interests of both the Red (Republican/DHS) and Blue (Democrat) factions.

• Geopolitical Actors as Fronts: High-profile figures, including global jihadists, are exposed as Intelligence actors. For instance, Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa, formerly a highly sought-after jihadist with a $10 million bounty, became President of Syria in 2024 and a UN delegate, demonstrating he was "always a CIA actor and front".

PAGE 10: CONCLUSION AND STRATEGIC OUTLOOK

6.1 Synthesis of Systemic Erosion

The current global landscape is defined by systemic erosion, where centralized systems—be they communications, financial, or political—are either failing due to inherent fragility or being weaponized for control.

• The Vicious Cycle of Control: Governmental overreach (e.g., Thailand’s banking crisis) fuels public mistrust, prompting citizens to remove themselves from centralized systems (e.g., returning to cash). Simultaneously, the loss of basic cognitive skills like handwriting suggests a population becoming less capable of coherent critical thought, making them susceptible to the polarizing narratives injected through centralized media.

• Risk of Internal Collapse: While foreign conflicts and interventionism consume significant resources (including the unprecedented $1 trillion military investment pledged by Trump for 2026), internal structural failures, such as a U.S. government shutdown, pose an immediate and severe risk to national security and global deterrence.

• Political Accountability Deficit: The ability of powerful lobbies to deploy "unlimited" funding to defeat political opposition (Massie) indicates a fundamental breakdown in representative democracy, where loyalty to external interests supersedes accountability to domestic voters.

6.2 Strategic Outlook: Navigating the Chaos

The environment demands strategic awareness regarding deliberate conflict manufacturing. The sources indicate a necessary return to non-digital or non-centralized alternatives, not as a retrograde step, but as a safeguard against immediate, total dependence.

Outlook Components:

1. Shift in Military Doctrine: The dismantling of "woke" policies and the re-establishment of strict, non-gender-neutral standards within the U.S. military reflect a profound cultural shift aimed at increased battle readiness and operational focus.

2. Information Resilience: Individuals and organizations must cultivate information sources outside the polarizing narratives dictated by major media networks, which serve the purpose of greater political subjugation.

3. Future of Conflict Resolution: The success of Trump's "two-man diplomacy shop" in achieving broad Muslim-world buy-in for the Gaza plan suggests that traditional, massive diplomatic bureaucracies (UN/State Department) may be obsolete or even counterproductive in solving conflicts.

4. The New Political Battleground: The fight for American political integrity is increasingly defined by resistance to foreign lobbying influence. The outcome of challenges like the one facing Rep. Massie will serve as a definitive indicator of whether political leadership can operate independently of well-funded, external pressures.

In conclusion, global systems are rapidly approaching a flashpoint, characterized by self-inflicted wounds (shutdown risk, internal intelligence conflict) juxtaposed against external authoritarian control (Afghanistan blackout, Thailand banking freeze). The most critical variable remains the public’s ability to recognize and resist engineered polarization designed to facilitate "a far greater level of subjugation".
