THE 'NOVICHOK' RUSSOPHOBIA REVIVAL OPENED TODAY
We are supposed to believe that two top Russian agents were sent to kill Sergei Skripal despite him being sent to the UK in a Spy swap, they chose a “novichok” nerve agent as the manner of death. In broad daylight they painted this on the front door of his house, in full view of the neighbours and passers-by on the packed housing estate and without any protective equipment, despite the fact that a tiny droplet on your skin could kill you.
The agents then went for a walk in Salisbury town centre, looked in the window of an antique shop, and put the perfume bottle containing the novichok back in its packet including somehow resealing the cellophane wrapping. They then placed the “perfume” in a charity bin.
The Skripals came back home, and both touched the door handle. Despite the novichok being instant-acting and extremely deadly, they then went out for lunch and ate a full meal and drank wine and had a high old time for three hours, being joined and photographed by their MI6 handler Pablo Miller (whose existence is D-noticed).
After their meal, the novichok finally took effect and they both collapsed on a park bench. Despite the fact that they were different ages, sexes and weights and presumably contacted differing amounts of novichok, they both collapsed at just the same moment, about three hours after contact, so neither of them was able to call for help.
But luckily the very first person to come across them on the park bench was, completely by coincidence, the most senior ranking Nurse of the British Army, who just happened to be passing. They went to hospital and were saved and did not die after all.
A policeman sent to their house touched the door handle and also got novichok poisoning, and he later got ill and was hospitalised, but did not die either. He had returned to his own home and later it was found that he had got novichok all over the light switches and door handles there, but by great fortune his family, who continued to live in this house, did not get ill from it.
The official explanation of this is that it was “a miracle”.
Meanwhile, the “perfume” sat in the charity bin. It sat there for months and months, despite the fact that it was emptied regularly and despite the fact that Charlie Rowley was one of a number of people who also regularly stole from that bin.
Somehow both the bin’s official and unofficial emptiers continually missed the perfume bottle, again and again and again. Finally, several months later, the perfume bottle’s mysterious invisibility cloak failed and Charlie Rowley saw it.
He gave it to his girlfriend Dawn Sturgess, who put some perfume on and died. Charlie Rowley got ill but did not die. He was later able to tell the press inconvenient facts, like the cellophane on the perfume was fully sealed and that he took stuff from that bin fairly often.
When Rowley and Sturgess were taken to hospital, the police descended and sealed off the house and made a massive terrorism theatre of searching it, that went on for days. They were searching for a small container of liquid.
Finally, after days and days of 24/7 painstaking combing through the house by England’s finest, somebody spotted a perfume bottle sitting in plain sight on the kitchen counter, the perfume bottle’s invisibility cloak failed again and the Novichok was found!
At no time, despite what was published, has any official Lab definitively identified the substance as "Novichok" AND Where are the Skripals after all this time?

The charade of 'negotiations' which has taken place in Berlin is now over and all the indications are that the war in Ukraine will not only continue but will only end when the Russians have won a military victory. Indeed Putin has all but said as much today. That victory draws ever closer, with claimed Ukrainian 'victories' in Kupiansk and Novorossiysk exposed as media fabrications.

Meanwhile I notice that the US, having accepted wholesale Zelensky's and the UK/EU's 'revisions' to its 'peace proposals', is once again discussing further sanctions. The Europeans for their part are pressing forward with their plan to misappropriate the Russian assets and have also begun punishing dissidents, starting with Xavier Moreau and Jacques Baud.

In some respects this is all clarifying and I suspect that there are quite a few people in Russia who will be privately relieved by it.

Meanwhile Western economies continue to sink, living standards stagnate, and the Trump administration embraces - as ...

Prof. Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi - A Lecture well worth listening to

My Fellow Duranians, Good Day!

I would kindly ask ALL members who are interested to first watch the attached 3 hour discussion in it´s entirety and contemplate what your question would be IF it were not answered in the discussion.

Last night on the Medical Doctors for CoVid Ethics International (MD4CEI), Professor Doctor Sucharit Bhakdi was invited to speak to a group of medical experts, journalists and various pundits.

I had the privilege to first be in a live lecture with the good professor as well as being able to ask the first open round question.

My second question was not of medical nature but more for our community here, where I asked Prof. Bhakdi if he would be open to speaking to us here should there be any further questions that were not asked last night or any follow up questions. and he was only to willing to join us should this be the case.

I am leaving this post up for 3 days, so the whole community has the opportunity to read this and then listen to the whole lecture....

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
