    Something else that is hidden in plain sight here is the WEF logo.

    A line going through the three O's making them 666.

    "Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six." Revelation 13:18

    Now, number 6 alone is the number of man.

    But simple reduction using numerology, 6 + 6 + 6 = 18, 1+8 = 9

    Nine (9) being the number of the beast which is an inverted 6.

    Year 2025 is also a 9 year (and a very significant year for these people)
    2 + 2 + 5 = 9

    Klaus Shwab the chairman of WEF is a 9 lifepath. His DOB is 30-03-1938 (3 + 3 + 1 + 9 + 3 + 8 = 27)

    2 + 7 = 9

    What this means for future events i do not know yet..

    Exclamation Re: World Economic Forum (WEF) 2025-26 annual meetings

    • This is the WEF's Depopulation Agenda – 'It's the Heart of Fascism':

    ON! reporter Jonathan Krispijn spoke in Davos with author and columnist Larry Alex Taunton, known for his investigation into the WEF, which he says promotes anti-human, godless views and depopulation. “It is the heart of left-wing hypocrisy and fascism,” says Taunton, who regularly went undercover at the WEF and heard many interesting things as a result.

    No conspiracy theory

    That the WEF wants to depopulate the world is not a conspiracy theory, according to him. “[Henry] Kissinger pushed this. ‘We have a population problem and we need to kill a lot of people.’ You can read this report on the internet. It’s easy to download,” Taunton said earlier in his podcast Ideas Have Consequences. “So before you say this is a conspiracy theory, conspiracies are secret. None of this is secret,” he continued. “It’s public.”
    Schwab

    “Bill Gates lectures on it. Klaus Schwab talks about it. The World Economic Forum talks about it. Paul Ehrlich talked about it. Henry Kissinger talked about it. Guess who was taught by Kissinger at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government? Klaus Schwab,” Taunton laughed.

    Translated from German
    Agenda Command Output +++ Globalists-WEF 2026: "The World on the Edge of an Abyss…"

    Today, the WEF globalist meeting kicks off in Davos. AUF1 will report daily. Right on cue, the WEF has released its current "Global Risks Report 2026."

    According to it, the following points are the "top 6 threat scenarios" from the WEF's perspective for 2026, in this order:

    ◾️ Geoeconomic confrontation
    ◾️ Interstate armed conflicts
    ◾️ Extreme weather events
    ◾️ Societal polarization
    ◾️ Disinformation and misinformation
    ◾️ Economic downturn

    The report states:
    "With the entry into the year 2026, the world stands on the edge of an abyss.
    The turbulence caused by conventional wars and the strategic deployment of economic weapons continues to drive the further fragmentation of societies.
    The rules and institutions that have ensured stability for decades are threatened in a new era in which trade, finance, and technology have become weapons of power projection."

    ❗️Disinformation – and free opinions

    Alternative media, dissenting opinions in social media: All of that is "disinformation and misinformation" to the globalists. Ursula von der Leyen issued the rallying cry exactly two years ago at the WEF: The fight against disinformation as the main agenda for the coming years! (In the video, the 2-year-old video)

    The report explains why the shift in media is so threatening to the globalists' interpretive dominance. Quote:

    "Parallel to growing concerns about disinformation and misinformation, trust in news is declining, while news avoidance is increasing."

    "For the first time in the US, more people get their news from social media and video platforms than from television or traditional news websites."

    For the year 2026, "Disinformation and misinformation" ranks 5th among the greatest threats. For the period up to 2028 (i.e., 2-year scenario), it ranks 2nd. This also shows that 2026-28 will be the most intense phase in the fight against free opinions, as we have already analyzed at the Alternative WEF: The globalists are preparing a war for 2029/30 and will brutally intensify the fight against dissenters in the run-up (2026-28). Countervoices must be cleared out of the way.

    The 15 main threats up to 2028 in the ranking are according to the WEF:

    ◾️ Geoeconomic confrontation
    ◾️ Disinformation and misinformation
    ◾️ Societal polarization
    ◾️ Extreme weather events
    ◾️ Interstate armed conflicts
    ◾️ Cybersecurity risks
    ◾️ Inequality
    ◾️ Erosion of human rights and civil liberties
    ◾️ Environmental pollution
    ◾️ Involuntary migration and displacement
    ◾️ Economic downturn
    ◾️ Harm in the digital space / Online dangers
    ◾️ Lack of economic opportunities and unemployment
    ◾️ Censorship and surveillance
    ◾️ Concentration of strategic resources and technologies

    Yves Engler

    Mark Carney is a ‘lying Liberal’, not a defender of international law, let alone an anti-imperialist. The prime minister’s speech in Davos reflects a long Liberal tradition of seeking to convince people to ‘judge what I say, not what I do’.
    At the World Economic Forum in Switzerland yesterday Carney gave a speech challenging Donald Trump and defending sovereignty. He was widely lauded for explicitly criticizing the so-called international rules-based order.

    Liberal Canadian politicians are adept at rhetorical flourishes and too often liberal, even left-minded people buy their snake oil. But Carney has an actual record and except for a small positive shift towards China — driven by corporate Canada — that record is highly imperialistic.
    Days ago, Carney said he would join the Trump-chaired, international law violating, so-called ‘Gaza Board of Peace’. The PM has repeatedly said Canada would only accept a “Zionist Palestinian state” and his foreign affairs minister, Anita Anand, described Canada’s “unwavering support for Israel’s security.” In practice, this means refusing to uphold Canadian law — on arms sales, registered charities, foreign enlistment and war criminals in Canada — vis a vis a genocidal apartheid state.

    Two weeks ago, Carney “welcomed” the US kidnapping Venezuela’s president in a crass violation of international law that killed about 100 people. Canadian soldiers working through NORAD and Operation Caribbe, as well as integrated in US units, likely assisted US violence on Venezuela.

    Last week Carney echoed US/Israeli statements on Iran. Israel was hoping to reignite its summer war on that country, which Carney backed. In June Canada’s PM immediately labelled Israel’s destruction of multiple buildings in Tehran and the assassination of numerous scientists and military officials as “defending itself”. A month ago, foreign minister Anand publicly rejected restarting diplomatic relations with Tehran. (Canada has sanctions on Iran, labels the country a state-sponsor of terror and lists part of its military a terrorist organization.)

    Carney’s Canada remains part of the Haiti Core Group, which has been dictating that country’s affairs since the US/France/Canada overthrew its elected government in 2004. Canada remains part of the imperialistic Five Eyes, NATO and NORAD. Last year Carney hosted the G7.

    Under pressure from Trump, Carney has radically increased Canadian military spending. This country’s armed forces are structured to assist US global power projection. Despite Trump’s annexation threats, it’s unclear if a single one of the hundreds of treaty-level agreements, memoranda of understanding and bilateral forums on defence Canada has with the US military has been paused or canceled. The Canadian military has maintained a slew of aggressive international deployments alongside the US. Joint naval patrols in far flung oceans, US arms testing in Canada and officer exchanges all seem to be continuing as usual. In “Canadian soldiers have been carrying out Donald Trump's orders”, a January 20 Economist article notes, “there may be hundreds of Canadian soldiers serving in the United States. Publicly available information suggests that several are deployed within units that have been carrying out some of Mr. Trump's most controversial orders” in Venezuela, El Salvador and elsewhere.

    In my 2020 book The House of Mirrors: Justin Trudeau’s foreign policy I have a section titled “Judge What I Say, Not What I Do”. It’s relevant to understanding Carney’s speech to the World Economic Forum. It notes:
    “Early in the Liberals reign Stéphane Dion presented ‘a guiding principle for Canada in the world’. During a major policy speech, the foreign minister claimed ‘responsible conviction’ was the principle motivating the government’s international policy. The ‘responsible conviction’ label was a way to distinguish the Liberal brand from the Conservatives. It supposedly also offered a moral-philosophical basis for signing off on the controversial light armoured vehicle sale to Saudi Arabia.

    “When Chrystia Freeland took charge of foreign policy a year later, she replaced the ‘responsible conviction’ nomenclature with ‘international rules-based order’ (IRBO). On dozens of occasions Freeland, Trudeau and other Liberal officials referred to the IRBO, ‘international order based on rules’ or ‘international system based on rules’. The top stated ‘aim’ laid out in her major June 2017 foreign policy pronouncement was: ‘First, we will robustly support the rules-based international order, and all its institutions, and seek ways to strengthen and improve them.’ At the start of 2020 the Global Affairs website’s No. 1 priority was ‘revitalizing the rules-based international order.’

    “But, while the IRBO rhetoric was clever branding, designed partly to distinguish the Liberals from Donald Trump’s ‘America First’ sloganeering, the Liberals repeatedly violated the IRBO and ignored efforts to strengthen it.”

    IRBO was a rhetoric – echoed by US President Joe Biden – designed to sidestep international law. A leading promoter of the IRBO rhetoric in the Trudeau government was Freeland’s successor as foreign affairs minister François-Philippe Champagne. Yesterday Champagne excitedly tweeted, “Canada is back on the world stage. The New York Times just published the full transcript of PM Mark Carney’s speech at WEF 26.”

    Once again, they talk the talk, but rarely walk the walk. Liberals are shameless.

    🌐⚔️🇷🇺A panel discussion titled "Can Russia Maintain a Wartime Economy?" is scheduled to start right now in Davos.

    Not a single Russian will be present. Instead, there will be a Belarusian opposition member, someone from a western backed think tank from Moscow, the foreign ministers of the Netherlands and Romania and someone from the PM's office of Moldava.

    Certain to be a fair, balanced, insightful session, on a par with the usual level of discussion on similar topics in the west.

    Canada and Europe can't change their past because they have gotten buyer's remorse.

    That is particularly new for 2026 because of Venezuela and Greenland, and perhaps theatrics in Iran being more true domestically, switcheroo.

    Of course it is a "survival mode", like Saudi Arabia changed its priorities about five years ago, they're still the Saudis with a few less obnoxious extensions.

    But, it is overdue, it is an issue that has been forced, and it is only one, so you might still have Zionists against American hegemony. They might think the best way out of it is to militarize themselves. At least they're thinking about not being a footstool any more.

    Europeans are only panicking over Trump’s assault on the so-called “rules-based” order now that they find themselves on the short end of the stick for the first time. Welcome to the world you helped build.

    When the U.S. violates an agreement signed with the EU barely six months ago,
    @vonderleyen
    suddenly springs to action and insists that "in politics as in business—a deal is a deal", and that when counterparts "shake hands, it must mean something."

    Sadly for Europe, its current conundrum is the very definition of "blowback". The E3/EU faithfully obeyed and even abetted President Trump when he unilaterally abrogated the Iran Nuclear Deal during his first term. In doing so, they should have thought about today.

    There is one clear lesson to be drawn from all this: Either "all deals are deals", or "no handshake means anything". It is that stark, and the consequence of the latter is nothing short of the breakdown of the international order.

    Case in point: Mr. Trump's threat to take over Greenland by any means—unlawful as it is under any conception of international law or even a "rules-based order"—could not happen to a more deserving continent.

    🇮🇷 🎥 WATCH: U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent brags at Davos about the role U.S. sanctions have played in collapsing Iran’s economy, fueling public anger, and driving the recent nationwide protests.

    Speaking to Fox News, Bessent said: “It’s worked because in December, their economy collapsed. We saw a major bank go under. The central bank has started to print money. There is a dollar shortage. They are not able to get imports, and this is why the people took to the streets.”

    “This is economic statecraft. No shots fired,” Bessent added. “Things are moving in a very positive way here.”

    The antics of the countries having anything to do with Switzerland are awkward, which all plays into the favor of China who appears to be the one drawing applause. Not because they're saying anything new or different. They're repeating themselves. Most of the rest of the audience just proved it. Aside from their own statements, they seem to have gained some kind of inevitable acceptance:



    Quote World Economic Forum President Borge Brende has noted that China is doubling down on investment in research, development and innovation, and that "technologies can represent huge opportunities for productivity gains and also growth in the years to come. And China is a major contributor to that."

    According to Macron:

    Quote “China is welcome, but what we need is more Chinese foreign direct investments in Europe, in some key sectors, to contribute to our growth, to transfer some technologies, and not just to export towards Europe, some devices or products which sometimes don't have the same standards, or are much more subsidized, than the ones being produced in Europe,” Macron said.

    He's saying this in front of IMF and World Bank officials who are supposed to be the ones doing it. It's to...modernize and adapt your country to the world market and...he has so to speak made the African choice here, as if he were one of his own colonies.
