    Happy Spring Equinox,



    AccuWeather

    Vivid greens and purples lit up the sky as a powerful geomagnetic storm brought stunning northern lights across Alaska and even into parts of the lower 48 last night. ✨

    More countries sign joint statement on Strait of Hormuz by European nations, others



    LONDON, March 19 (Reuters) - Several more countries on Friday joined leading European nations, Japan ​and Canada in signing a joint statement, opens new tab saying they were ready to join appropriate efforts to ‌ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz and would take steps to stabilise energy markets.
    This is the full text of the statement from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Japan, Canada, Republic of Korea, New ​Zealand, Denmark, Latvia, Slovenia, Estonia, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Czechia, Romania, Bahrain and Lithuania:

    We condemn ​in the strongest terms recent attacks by Iran on unarmed commercial vessels in ⁠the Gulf, attacks on civilian infrastructure including oil and gas installations, and the de facto ​closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces.
    We express our deep concern about the escalating ​conflict. We call on Iran to cease immediately its threats, laying of mines, drone and missile attacks and other attempts to block the Strait to commercial shipping, and to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 2817.

    Freedom of ​navigation is a fundamental principle of international law, including under the United Nations Convention on ​the Law of the Sea.
    The effects of Iran’s actions will be felt by people in all parts of ‌the world, ⁠especially the most vulnerable.

    Consistent with UNSC Resolution 2817, we emphasise that such interference with international shipping and the disruption of global energy supply chains constitute a threat to international peace and security. In this regard, we call for an immediate comprehensive moratorium on attacks on civilian infrastructure, including ​oil and gas installations.

    We ​express our readiness ⁠to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait. We welcome the commitment of nations who are engaging in preparatory planning.

    We ​welcome the International Energy Agency decision to authorise a coordinated release of ​strategic petroleum ⁠reserves. We will take other steps to stabilise energy markets, including working with certain producing nations to increase output.
    We will also work to provide support for the most affected nations, including through the United ⁠Nations ​and the IFIs (International Financial Institutions).
    Maritime security and freedom of navigation ​benefit all countries. We call on all states to respect international law and uphold the fundamental principles of international prosperity ​and security.

    I have a question -for everyone. What are the gas prices in your local area and how much have they risen in the last 1-2 weeks?

    Today at the pump in California I paid $6:30 a gallon, a rise of roughly $1:50 a gallon.

    I wonder how bad this is going to get.

    My heart goes out to the areas mentioned in the video and can't help but wonder how far and how fast the trend might travel.

    Deep breath.

    Answer for Casey Claar:

    Different gasoil product prices : valid from 22.03.2026 in Belgium

    Benzine 95 RON E10 1,8630 euro/l +++ regular fuel for cars
    Benzine 98 RON E5 1,9290 euro/l +++ premium fuel for cars
    Diesel B7 2,2890 euro/l +++ diesel for cars and trucks
    Gasolie verwarming (H0/H7) (vanaf 2000 l) 1,3908 euro/l +++ gasoil heating for homes
    Gasolie verwarming (H0/H7) (minder dan 2000 l) 1,4310 euro/l +++ gasoil heating for homes

    In US$ per gallon, for diesel: about 10,5 US$ per gallon.... for regular fuel about 8,60 US$ per gallon

    And Belgium is not the lowest in Europe. For instance the Netherlands and Germany are a lot pricier yet.

    $2.89 a gallon everywhere in Ecuador. It rose by $0.13 last week, the only increase so far.

    Casey, I don't think that Europeans will have any sympathy for the higher gas prices in the USA. The European governments tax a gallon of gas at (roughly) 52-65% while Americans only pay (roughly) 15%. Amazingly, Europeans allow their governments to charge such outrageously exorbitant taxes on gas. If gas were taxed at over 50% in the USA, there would be rioting. I don't think that comment is an overstatement.

    For Reference, Most of the prices are as of March 16 - 21, 2026

    Saudi Arabia $2.34/gallon
    Russia $3.44/gallon
    East Coast USA $3.57/gallon
    China $4.50/gallon
    Brazil $4.54/gallon
    Japan $4.69/gallon
    Argentina $4.92/gallon
    California $6.30/gallon (see note below)
    Poland: $7.00/gallon
    Spain: $7.57/gallon
    Italy: $8.06/gallon
    France: $8.41/gallon
    Finland $9.00/gallon
    Germany: $9.37/gallon
    Netherlands $10.01/gallon
    Malawi $13.02/gallon
    Hong Kong $16.93/gallon (no sure why this is the case when the rest of China is much lower)

    California has the highest gas taxes in the U.S., totalling around $0.90 per gallon from federal, state, and local sources. The state excise tax alone is 61.2 cents per gallon and increases annually with inflation. They also insist on a Special Gasoline Blend and have some meaningless carbon fuel standards. This is one of the reasons so many people are moving out of California.

    Some prices and tax info I looked up individually.

    In my country there always has been a huge tax on petrol and diesel, plus VAT. The money the government collects is supposed to be ring fenced for building and maintaining transport infrastructure. Pretty much everyone is sceptical about how that tax revenue is actually used and firmly believes that a lot 'disappears' in corruption (over inflated government contracts). Vehicle licences, roadworthy inspections, tolls ... more tax revenue for government, that is supposed to be ring fenced for transport infrastructure.

    1 April the increases for petrol, diesel, paraffin, gas, etc. kick in ... about 25%, which includes a huge increase in the tax levy. It is going to be bad!

How did it happen and what power structures were in place the created sheep of populations around the world that's the question that our guest Sonia Elijah aims to answer in her brand new book called 3/11 Viral Takeover."

    (Brief podcast at the link featuring preview on Redacted)

    "Exactly six years ago today, March 23, 2020, Boris Johnson told the nation to “stay at home.” Schools closed, businesses shuttered, families separated, and the UK (along with much of the world) entered unprecedented lockdown.

    What began as a health emergency morphed into something far more profound: a coordinated test of global compliance, fear, and control.

    I was thrilled to return to Redacted with Clayton Morris to discuss my new book 3/11 Viral Takeover: On March 11, 2020, a Pandemic was Declared and Our World Changed Forever. We unpacked the forensic timeline, from the WHO’s March 11 declaration to the mechanisms that locked societies down and silenced dissent.

    Beyond Pesticides/ 5 trillion microbes per acre
    GMO 2.0 is already in the ground — here's what the science says

    Institute for Responsible Technology
    3/23/26
    https://api.neonemails.com/emails/co...SYdluXm5f22xg=

    "Dear IRT Community,
    Something important happened last month that we want to make sure you know about.

    Beyond Pesticides — one of the most respected voices in pesticide reform — just published a detailed analysis of our peer-reviewed article, Genetically Modified Microorganisms: Risks and Regulatory Considerations for Human and Environmental Health, published in the journal Microorganisms in February.

    When a publication of their caliber dedicates this kind of attention to our work, it means the scientific and advocacy communities are paying attention. That matters enormously for what we're trying to accomplish.

    The article we published — two years in the making, authored by eight scientists from the US, Israel, and Australia — makes the case that genetically modified microorganisms (GMMs) represent one of the most urgent and underregulated threats to human and environmental health we have ever faced. Unlike a GMO crop you can choose not to eat, these are living, self-replicating organisms already being released across millions of acres of agricultural land. They can mutate. They travel. They transfer their altered genes to native species. And current regulations — in the US and around the world — are wholly inadequate to address those risks.

    The Beyond Pesticides coverage draws out the full picture: what's at stake for your gut health, your children's developing microbiomes, the soil beneath our feet, and the ecosystems we all depend on. It also highlights something we've been saying for years — that regulatory agencies are applying frameworks designed for toxic chemicals to living biological organisms, and the consequences of that failure could be long-term and irreversible.

    I want you to read this coverage and share it widely. The more people who understand what's happening — and why it demands urgent regulatory action — the closer we get to the protections that should already be in place.

    You Won’t BELIEVE What Just HAPPENED in Europe!!!



    Dr. Steve Turley
    Mar 24, 2026
    Civilizational populism is effectively reconstituting politics in a manner that radically diverges from older liberal that basically told the people to sit down and shut up and allow a professional class of liberal elites to and manage the state in accordance with what's best for them, the liberal elites, not the people. What civilizational populism represents is a bonafide recovery of the voxuli, the voice of the people.

    And it's spreading like wildfire both here with the MAGA movement and all over the world.

    More and more populations are demanding a return to national sovereignty. That is what we saw awaken Europe over the weekend. The populist right is no longer a protest movement. It's no longer fringe. It's no longer a moment. It is a majority in the making.

    And the establishment elites from Paris to Berlin have absolutely no answer for it. The people of Europe are waking up. And as we found out this weekend, they are voting.

    ´The Philippines has declared a state of national energy emergency, citing the "imminent danger" posed to the country's fuel supplies by the conflict in the Middle East.

    President Ferdinand Marcos Jr said he had signed an executive order to safeguard energy security amid severe disruption to global supply chains.

    The US-Israel war with Iran - and the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping route - has sent shock waves through global energy markets, causing soaring prices and shortages.

    The Philippines is highly dependent on fuel imports and particularly vulnerable to disruptions in production and shipments.´

    The United States Army has increased its maximum enlisted age from 35 years old to 42. They've done this in the past to fill quotas, and it could be a tell for a future land battle. The minimum age is 17-18 and the Marines don't want people over 28 years old.

    stripes
    Quote Those in their late 30s and early 40s can now join the U.S. Army.

    The Army increased its maximum enlistment age to 42 this month, bringing its accession policy closer in line with most of the United States’ other military services, according to updated service regulation documents published this month.

    Individuals up to 42 with or without prior military service can enlist in the Regular Army, the Army National Guard and the Army Reserves, according to the updated Army Regulation 601-210 published March 20. AR 601-210 is the regulation that governs policies and procedures for the Army’s enlistment process.

    The Army in recent years had capped the enlistment age at 35, although it did accept some older recruits with waivers, officials said. The policy did not change the Army’s minimum ages for enlisting, which remain 17 with parental permission or 18.

    The updated enlistment age brings the Army in line with the Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard, which all accept recruits up to 42. The Navy accepts recruits up to 41, and the Marine Corps only accepts enlisted recruits up to 28 years old.

    It is not the first time the Army has accepted older recruits. The service temporarily increased its maximum enlistment age to 42 in 2006 as it struggled to fill its ranks amid major combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The service dropped its enlistment age back to 35 in 2016.

    The Air Force and Space Force were the most recent services to raise their max enlistment age in 2023 when they moved it from 39 to 42 amid a yearslong recruiting slump that saw Air Force recruiters fall short of their enlistment goals for multiple years.

    But the Army policy change comes amid a solid recruiting environment in which its recruiters have reached or surpassed their goals in the last year and report being on track to meet their 2026 recruiting aims.

    The policy change is meant to better align the service with Defense Department standards, an Army spokesperson said Tuesday.

    The updated Army regulation also allows recruits who have a single marijuana possession or drug paraphernalia possession conviction to enlist without a waiver. Such convictions previously would have technically barred potential recruits from enlisting, but those with such convictions were often granted waivers to join the service.

    All of the U.S. military services also allow exceptions to their enlistment policies via waivers. The Air Force, for example, recently allowed 51-year-old David Goggins to enlist. Goggins is a storied former Navy SEAL who entered the Air Force as master sergeant and was assigned to the Special Warfare Training Wing, according to an Air Force spokesperson. In 2023, RAND Corp. analysts suggested the Army raise its maximum enlistment age to help it increase recruiting at a time when the service had just missed its recruiting goals by about 25% in 2022.

    In a 2022 study, RAND analysts found that older recruits might perform better. It found recruits between 25 and 35 were about 15% less likely to wash out of initial entry training than younger recruits. That age group was also about 6% more likely to reenlist after their initial contract, RAND found.

    The company also found that recruiters believed older recruits were “of higher quality, more focused, and more motivated, as well as being ready to ship to basic training more quickly.”

    Not really breaking news as I know this forum of intelligent minds has most likely already covered this subject, but a calendar that follows the 13 moon annual cycle always made more sense to me. At this point, "What haven't they f'ed with?" is most likely the better question. Some great lines and real "Aha" moments in this one. Worth a watch.


    "September means seven, October means eight, November means nine, and December means ten — yet they are the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th months. This is the hidden history of the 13-month calendar, the Roman calendar rewrite, the Gregorian reform, the Ishango Bone, lunar timekeeping, and why humanity may have lost a cleaner way to measure time.

    Why do our month names no longer match their numbers? Why does September mean “seven” if it is the ninth month? Why do we live on a 12-month calendar when the moon still moves in roughly 13 cycles per year? This episode traces the forgotten history of calendar reform — from the Ishango Bone and ancient lunar counting, to Rome’s manipulation of time under Numa Pompilius and the Pontifices, to Julius Caesar’s “year of confusion,” the Gregorian deletion of days in 1582, and the modern 13-month calendar movement backed by George Eastman, Kodak, and the League of Nations.

    This is not just a story about dates. It is about power, timekeeping, lunar cycles, solar calendars, Roman control, religious resistance, and the possibility that 13 was not feared because it was unlucky — but because it preserved an older structure of reality that institutions replaced. From Ethiopia’s living 13-month calendar to the mathematics of equal months, this is the deeper story of how the modern calendar was built, what it erased, and why almost nobody questions it."

    We all know it's happening and somehow still manage to compartmentalize and siphon it away into the worries-for-another-day folder of our minds, but it's real, it's now. I, for one, did not consent to any of this, and I broadcast this to the Creator often and with passion. "I do not consent." Like Passio said, "Learn to say no." And yet, easier said than done, and there's the rub...

    Yes, it's real/now and actually has been for quite some time--at least it's clear that the self-replicating, mobile nanobots have been in the VAXX for quite some time, though it's hard to say how long they've been raining down on everything from the air (one of the ingredients of chemtrails, apparently).
    As well as the post #4193 above, in this thread, for more details on the nanotech, see the thread which consists mainly of reports of microscopy research done by Dr. Ana Mihalcea and her associates in Humanity United Now at: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/sho...ght=ubiquitous

    The subject doesn't get a lot of attention as I think most people, even truth seekers, can't really deal with it as yet and naturally, there are a multitude of distractions to divert from it.
    There are at least remedies for ridding the body of the toxic metals which make up the nanotech with EDTA, Methylene Blue, etc. See this thread: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/sho...ight=protocols
    It takes ongoing individual attention and effort for the detoxifying, but getting it to STOP is probably going to take a massive global effort.

    Iran War Exposed China’s Military Tech — Then a Massive Data Leak Hit
    Lei's Real Talk
    432K subscribers
    Streamed live on Mar 19, 2026

    "The Iran war didn’t just test China’s military technology—it exposed it.
    As U.S. and Israeli strikes unfolded, China’s advanced air defense systems didn’t just struggle—they failed. But the real story didn’t stay on the battlefield.
    Inside China, something started to break.
    Top weapons scientists were quietly removed. Key figures in radar, missiles, and nuclear research vanished from official records. At the same time, a massive supercomputer data leak surfaced—potentially exposing the core of China’s military technology.
    This video takes you inside what Beijing isn’t explaining:
    the purges, the hidden losses, and the growing signs of a system under pressure.
    Because what failed in Iran may not just be weapons—
    but the entire structure behind them."

    Japan Just Built Something So IMPOSSIBLE... China's Fleet Is Now USELESS
    The Geo Network

    Mar 20, 2026

    "China's recent military maneuvers and the deployment of its advanced Fujian aircraft carrier were designed to cement dominance in the Pacific. Beijing had a concrete plan to encircle Taiwan and neutralized Japan from helping its ally. However, Tokyo, shedding its traditional "passive" stance, has quietly unleashed a series of fütüristik weapon systems that have turned the tide.

    This OSINT tactical breakdown details how Japan has transformed its military status, deploying इलेक्ट्रॉनिक युद्ध uçakları, hedefe saniyeler içinde ulaşan elektromanyetik raylı toplar, ve "sonsuz cephaneye" sahip yüksek enerjili lazer silahları. While Russia tries to apply pressure from the North, Japan has unleashed its own $175 billion "Golden Dome" (Altın Kubbe) project, designed to detect and destroy "unstoppable" hypersonic missiles.

    Watch this full geopolitical analysis to see how the US Aegis destroyers and Japan’s impossible technology have rendered the world's largest navy—China’s fleet—completely useless.

    🎯 Topics Covered in This Geopolitical Analysis:

    The Fujian Abluka Plan: How China intended to trap Japan and Taiwan.

    Japan's Sci-Fi Arsenal: Electromagnetic railguns and high-energy lasers.

    The $175B Golden Dome: Neutralizing hypersonic missiles at the edge of space.

    The Northern Front: Breaking Russia's submarine and hipersonik füze patrol.

    Caged Carrier: Why the world’s largest navy is now obsolete.

    💬 With laser technology with infinite ammo, do you think traditional aircraft carriers are permanently obsolete in the Pacific, or can China adapt? "
