What I Think is Happening Personally - My Thoughts on Ukraine and Spraying 12/07/09 10:22am
These are my thoughts on what is happening.
After spending the hours/days/weeks on investigating what is happening in Ukraine and other areas, I am now going to voice my thoughts on the situation.
These thoughts include many aspects including those, some would call conspiracies.
The plague/bacterial pneumonia that has been in Ukraine AFTER Spraying was done trying to cause a Major outbreak of disease. I firmly believe it was done on purpose and Ukraine was the testing place for the first spraying!
I firmly believe it is being done by TPTB - WHY?
With all the economic breakdowns and Ukraine has many problems with many complicated aspects involved with their breakdown. From the Presidential elections and power plays, to their money problems, to Russia wanting their resources of gas, to so many other internal problems they have, after I researched what is going on there, they were the perfect testing ground in TPTB eyes. I feel very bad for Ukraine's people, after all I have read about their situation. Their political situation is sickening - it is not about the people there, it is about the power players. The country is underwater financially, trying to get loans from the IMF and they do not have good medical care overall.
Poland - the Health Minister has remained firm (which is awesome) against vaccines - could their spraying (still not sure, it actually happened) be part of a retaliation against the Polish people?
I also believe this spraying did not have the complete effect TPTB have wanted, the amount of spreading of the disease/plague has decreased from all that I have read (unless the numbers are being hidden).
What does that mean?
It means TPTB may have used the spraying of Ukraine as a test - to see how effective the disease sprayed was and how well it would spread.
Are they now refining the disease, so it will be more lethal for the coming sprayings planned?
I believe there will be 9 times of spraying, which we will hear about with sickness afterwards.
I also believe there have been 4 so far (by my count).
One - Ukraine
Two - Paraguay
Three - Poland (though not sure about that one)
Four - Saratov
Considering a certain program stated a long time ago "ill winds" would start at the end of Oct. - and then the spraying of Ukraine happened - says the program was exactly correct in it's predictions.
The prediction says 9 times around the world with these "ill winds". I thought about it many times on how it could be 9 times. After hearing of more incidents of spraying - beginning in Paraguay with the spraying of a tribe there and them being sick afterwards, made me realize, we would hear about spraying and then people being sick afterwards 9 times.
It was somewhat confirmed after I read the newest Web bot alta report that came out yesterday. You can get it here: www.halfpasthuman.com for $10.00, it is 58 pages. BUT I warn you - Do not get it - if you can not handle some extreme changes in the world coming up.
It mentioned the "ill winds" saying the 9 times was SET in the language and the "ill winds" WILL be around the world 9 times!
Now, think about the one place that would be the best to spray.... where people from every corner of the world will be there, thus the disease is set to absolutely travel to every single country of the world. After the testing of Ukraine and the refining of the disease to make it more contagious, it could then spread around the world, from this one event. Which is also mentioned in the report, as having spraying being done and disease following that spraying. Now, you guess which event is coming up that will have people from Every corner of the world, in February and is an ideal place to set off a world wide plague/disease! The language from the web bot - has the Olympics firmly within it - as spraying of disease!
Now, I have been contacting Medical Examiners and even though information SHOULD BE Public about what caused deaths, I am Getting Nowhere! I have now been asking ONE SIMPLE QUESTION - Which is: "Did the People die of Bacterial Pneumonia?" The people I talk to will NOT answer that One question nor will others call me back. I have challenged the people at the examiners offices, asking WHY they will not answer that? Also, isn't that information suppose to be available to all?
NOW - I have to Ask EVERYONE - For ALL OF US TO WORK TOGETHER!
Those of you in Iowa, North Carolina, Texas and in the countries of Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Norway to contact your medical examiners office and DEMAND to know - if Bacterial Pneumonia was the cause of death with the Bleeding Lungs!
Bacterial Pneumonia, is the Plague/1918 Spanish Flu causes of death.
WHO and the governments of the World Need to Be Honest about the deaths and what has caused them, without giving us the same old tired story of "Swine flu and Get your vaccine"!
Bacterial Pneumonia CAN BE SPRAYED - I have posted many things about it, even from the U.S. government about using it as bio terrorism.
There comes the question of WHY - WHY would governments do this - sounds way too conspiracy minded - right?
This part gets into all the other things going on right now.
Consider the amount of FRAUD the banks and governments have committed and are still hiding AND when the full information of all the Tungsten Filled FAKE Gold that is out there in 400 oz bars.
All the banks, governments and Media shrills are saying "We are over the worst" BUT the TRUE Facts are - they are HIDING the Worst. The WORST of the economic situation is yet to come.
To me, this is like what Enron did, they hid for years the REAL Books, they manipulated the numbers - BUT finally they could be manipulated no longer and they Fell with a Big Bang! That is what is happening, I believe in the U.S and other places in the world. The governments are hiding it all - along with the banks.
Do the governments want mass riots when people realize they have been fooled and Lied to? NO
How can they lessen the impact the most? Make people sick.
Think they would not do that? Look at history, Governments do whatever needs to be done, to get to the end result THEY WANT!
Look at Pearl Harbor (U.S. govt. KNEW it was going to happened and allowed it - to get into World War 2) - The U.S. Govt. ALLOWED Thousands to DIE - and the Naval Ships Destroyed.
Earlier in history, they gave Indians blankets with small pox, because they WANTED the land!
The LIE of Iraq being involved with 9/11 - just to go to war with them and take over the country.
The Fact that has just been released that Bin Laden had been cornered in Afghanistan, BEFORE the U.S. went into Iraq, so they let him go - otherwise the Iraq war would not be warranted nor accepted by the people.
The Official FACTS of 9/11from the U.S. government - are NOT True - research it - you will find that statement I just made is TRUE! I am not going to get into 9/11 here - But I will say.... aren't you curious WHY so many pilots/architects/engineers/politicians/t.v. personalities - the list goes on and on - Say 9/11 could NOT have Happened as the official government statement says it did? The buildings collapsing is the KEY part - ESPECIALLY Building 7 and the Pentagon hit! RESEARCH IT - FIND OUT - The Truth WILL SET YOU FREE - But then you will QUESTION Everything else - which is what I have been doing!
Vietnam war was based on Lies in the beginning.
The list goes on and on - all confirmed (except for 9/11) at this time.
So does it make sense, considering the world's economic situation is breaking down that Now - people are being sprayed and made to get sick, so there will be less mass rioting when TRUTH comes out?
The above is filled with conspiracies, yet - if you research all above mentioned, you will find they are not really conspiracies, but reality.
Also mentioned in the new alta report out yesterday.... is a Fashion change slated for around February of 2010 - where faces are hidden under mask - INCLUDING EYES - with glasses/goggles, for around the world.
So, I will say again - get prepared for this - while supplies are available.
BUT - I also believe there are ways to combat this by us all.
First getting information OUT that spraying has and is occurring to cause disease BESIDES the Chemtrails that are laid across the Earth's skies every day.
If in your area - if there are Low flying planes and helicopters - that Are actually spraying something - Alert people around you and get the information Out.
I believe if we all come together with Actual Knowledge - Truth and Knowledge is the Key to Combating what may be planned, we can survive the "ill winds" planned.
Also, I have been spending literally Hours investigating a certain person - which I have hinted at before in a previous post - I have come up with some very interesting information, which I am not ready to release yet. There is ONE key information I have yet to find, which would be Absolute Proof of what looks to be the Truth of the site/person that they are Part of the PTB/vaccine companies/WHO game! Their plays of the game are to cause constant Fear - be quoted by MSM and release information of Mutations all the time, but Not the Real Truth! They have embedded themselves in the alternative media too - being quoted by them all the time - they were set there to do that, so they control the information on BOTH sides! BUT history shows how embedded the site/person is with the vaccine makers and Big Institutions, supported by Rockefeller etc, of which I DO Have Proof of. Again, there is ONE Thing I want to find, before I post my findings.
The Following IS TO THOSE INVOLVED IN THE SPRAYINGS, who may be reading this:
How can you Live with yourself, knowing you will cause suffering and death around the world?
Be it your job of a pilot, bioengineer, virologist, government worker, Military personnel, WHO worker, etc - Do you Really feel your job to follow orders and not lose it, is more important than saving Millions of lives, by NOT following orders? Do you realize what you are doing and will do, affects your OWN family and friends?! Don't you think your Own Soul Salvation and Karma is important? If you did, you would Stop doing what you are doing!
Please, if you are involved in Chemtrails or the Spraying of Disease - Quit your job - Leave the Military - Come out in the Opened about it - HELP combat it - for your good of your own soul, the good of your family and friends AND the good of the World! All of us out here, WILL help you get the message out. Can you live with yourself for the rest of your life and can you live with yourself after you die, do you Really know where you will be going then, if you are part of a plan to cause disease and death around the world?

WHO to monitor Flu In Vancouver Before and During Olympics - Request ALL Athletes Be Vaccinated 11/30/09 7:38am
WHO to monitor Flu In Vancouver Before and During Olympics - Request ALL Athletes Be Vaccinated
The World Health Organisation is sending a representative to the 2010 Winter Olympics to monitor for potential disease outbreaks, and organisers and health experts have taken steps to protect against the H1N1 virus.Why doesn't this make me feel better, knowing WHO will be in charge of watching the athletes, officials, spectators and media in Vancouver before and during the Olympics? Maybe, it is because they are not honest about what is happening in the world and how many people have had adverse side effects and ALL the deaths from the Swine Flu (that is just a coincidence in their opinion). Also, they have connections and are on the payroll of vaccine makers!
Article:
Article:
Planning for any impact swine flu could have on the games has been underway since April, when British Columbia health officials increased the stockpile of antiviral drugs available in the province.
The WHO declared an official global pandemic in June.
Most athletes, officials and spectators are expected to be vaccinated against H1N1 by the time the Winter Olympics begin in February.
"If the vaccination rate is high enough, I don't think H1N1 is going to be a risk," said Dr Patricia Daly, chief medical health officer for Vancouver Coastal Health, the agency overseeing health services for the Olympics.
British Columbia's provincial health officer said the original supply was boosted by three million doses, bringing the total amount available to 10 million.
About 250,000 spectators are expected at the games, and there will be about 10,000 media members, and 5,000 athletes and officials.
Vancouver organisers and the International Olympic Committee have recommended to all of the national Olympic committees that their athletes and officials be vaccinated against both H1N1 and seasonal influenza.
Daly said international athletes will be offered the vaccine when they get to Canada, with some teams arriving as early as January to begin training.
Public health nurses at the athletes village will conduct tests and monitor for illness at venues, including hotels where officials and sponsors are staying.
Seasonal flu is always a risk at a Winter Olympics, but monitoring done during prior games has shown little danger of a major outbreak.
At the Olympic village during the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, 188 cases of influenza were diagnosed.
During the 2006 Olympics in Turin the incidence of influenza-like illness was less than that recorded during the same period a year earlier, according to Italian researchers.
I will also say - The New Web bot report is suppose to be coming out this week (Clif, has mentioned it most likely will be the last one, due to the expected shut down of the internet- IP Addresses use only - within the next few months). The report is ONLY $10.00 and the last report mentioned the Olympics being a place where a disease will be launched/sprayed/started and spread around the world from those at the Olympics. That disease will be a killer. Once something is mentioned, Clif normally does not include it in the next report, so we will see if this report has anything more about the Olympics and disease. But for those interested in getting the coming report, please go to http://www.halfpasthuman.com/.
UPDATE Half Past Human has the scheduled release for the next Web bot report for Dec. 21st. - But watch for it at the site, many times it has been earlier than date stated. Also you can do what I have done - I have already paid for mine - via Pay pal -with a note saying it is for the December Report.

Internet Shut Down Due to Pandemic? Official Govt. Documents With Web bot Info mixed In 11/23/09 3:20pm
Internet Shut Down Due to Pandemic? Official Govt. Document With
Web bot Info mixed In
Web bot Info mixed In
First Thank You Very Much Armin for providing these documents from the United States Government!
Linked is a 77 page from the United States Government about "What to do with the Internet in case of a Pandemic".
Well considering we now have a "National Emergency" over a H1N1 Benign Virus already declared by President Obama ( I am still bewildered over it - as there was No reason).
This document can now come in play. They had specified in it - only in an act of War or another such emergency could the Presidential Powers take over the Internet. btw: This document was created last month - after it was created then the National Emergency was declared.
I did not read Every Word of the 77 page document BUT I read enough of it to understand what they have planned! I will be inserting the KEY points of the planned internet control and what pages they are on so you can read them yourself in the document linked.
Before I insert them, I would like to revisit two things from earlier this year. (also this is all actually about the epidemic - facts - mixed with prediction - from the Web bot, besides my "little conspiracy thought")
One, Please remember Jay Rockerfeller earlier this year proclaimed "the number one hazard in the world is the Internet"! (Yeah, hazard for the PTB, because we spread truth- my conspiracy thought!). So, we know they don't like the internet because too many people become aware of truth through it! Just like I hope this site and we are all doing now!
Second, I would like to mention the Web bot prediction for the internet.
The Web bot has predicted the internet will be shut down and limited in the form that the ONLY way people will be able to go to one website or another is through IP addresses Only! When should this come into play? Think the beginning of next year - in other words start writing and noting IP addresses immediately of the sites you go to the most etc.
I have already set my computer up with the Mozilla Firefox internet, there is a special little add on you can do - that adds the internet IP address at the bottom of Every single internet page you go to. Thus, internet IP addresses can be compiled. UPDATE 3:51PM ADD ON FOR IP Addresses for Firefox at this Link
Also I suggest people in forums/message boards, etc start a thread/message where people can add IP addresses for everyone else to see. In other words we all help each other out with the IP information.
Here is some information from the U.S. Govt Document linked HERE

Here is some information from the U.S. Govt Document linked HERE
On pages 25 and 26 is the following information
Providers identified one technically feasible alternative that has the potential to reduce Internet congestion during a pandemic, but raised concerns that it could violate customer service agreements and thus would require a directive from the government to implement. Although providers cannot identify users at the computer level to manage traffic from that point, two providers stated that if the residential Internet access network in a particular neighborhood was experiencing congestion, a provider could attempt to reduce congestion by reducing the amount of traffic that each user could send to and receive from his or her network. Such a reduction would require adjusting the configuration file within each customer’s modem to temporarily reduce the maximum transmission speed that that modem was capable of performing—for example, by reducing its incoming capability from 7 Mbps to 1 Mbps. However,
according to providers we spoke with, such reductions could violate the agreed-upon levels of services for which customers have paid. Therefore, under current agreements, two providers indicated they would need a directive from the government to take such actions.
Shutting down specific Internet sites would also reduce congestion, although many we spoke with expressed concerns about the feasibility of such an approach. Overall Internet congestion could be reduced if Web sites that accounted for significant amounts of traffic—such as those with video streaming—were shut down during a pandemic. According to one recently issued study, the number of adults who watch videos on video-sharing sites has nearly doubled since 2006, far outpacing the growth of many other Internet activities.22 However, most providers’ staff told us that blocking users from accessing such sites, while technically possible, would be very difficult and, in their view, would not address the congestion problem and would require a directive from the government.23 One provider indicated that such blocking would be difficult because determining which sites should be blocked would be a very subjective process. Additionally, this provider noted that technologically savvy site operators could change their Internet protocol addresses, allowing users to access the site regardless. Another provider told us that some of these large bandwidth sites stream critical news information. Furthermore, some state, local, and federal government offices and agencies, including DHS, currently use or have plans to increase their use of social media Web sites and to use video streaming as a means to communicate with the public. Shutting down such sites without affecting pertinent information would be a challenge for providers and could create more Internet congestion as users would repeatedly try to access these sites. According to one provider, two added complications are the potential liability resulting from lawsuits filed by businesses that lose revenue when their sites are shutdown or restricted and potential claims of anticompetitive practices, denial of free speech, or both. Some providers said that the operators of specific Internet sites could shut down their respective sites with less disruption and more effectively than Internet providers, and suggested that a better course of action would be for the government to work directly with the site operators.
pg 32 TO 33 reason for National Emergency?
Some observers have suggested that an authority granted to the President in the Communications Act of 1934 could conceivably be used to take actions to address Internet congestion during a pandemic.33 In their view, the President may have, under certain limited circumstances involving a state or threat of war, the power to authorize government control of the telecommunications systems and, if properly invoked and delegated, this might broadly provide authority for the government to require private sector entities to take actions intended to address congestion. However, according to FCC staff we spoke with, while the authority under the Act may grant the President powers over telecommunication systems during wartime, they did not know whether such powers could be exercised in a pandemic. However, until DHS, as the lead agency responsible for coordinating protection of telecommunications, including the Internet, takes action to work with other agencies to assess whether sufficient authorities exist to direct necessary actions by the private sector, the potential for a timely and effective federal response to congestion is reduced
I LOVE THIS PART!!! HILARIOUS!!
Although its own study identified voluntary public reduction of Internet use as an effective means of reducing pandemic congestion, DHS has not begun steps to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of obtaining such public cooperation. According to the DHS study and to providers and others we spoke with, voluntary actions taken by the general public could have significant potential to reduce the surges in traffic loads that residential users may experience during a pandemic. For example, the general public could be asked to limit video streaming, gaming, and peer-to-peer and other bandwidth-intensive applications during daytime work hours. They could also be encouraged to use broadcast news sources in place of online news. A similar campaign developed by another agency—HHS—to publicize pandemic awareness strategies showed that such public education efforts can require months to prepare and cost millions of dollars to test and implement. For example, as part of creating various radio and television messages to provide information to the public about how to prepare for a pandemic, HHS conducted market research using various techniques, including focus groups, to gauge the public’s opinion about a pandemic. In 2005-2006, when they began this effort, HHS staff stated that it took the agency about 6 months to develop the public service announcements (PSA). In 2006-2007 HHS staff spent about 4 months planning and producing PSAs. The cost of running radio PSAs in 137 cities over an 11-month period in 2007 was about $1.5 million dollars.
Let me get this Straight THEY HAD A FOCUS GROUP TO GAUGE THE PUBLIC'S OPINION ABOUT A PANDEMIC IN 2005 AND 06!? What I think about that... it says A LOT about how the Government plans Ahead of time for things! There is a double meaning in that statement I just made Too!
