CIA faces furious backlash after hidden document with potential cure for cancer is declassified after 60 years

The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors.

The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy. The research also highlighted experiments showing that certain chemical compounds were capable of targeting both parasitic infections and malignant tumors.

‘The Americans knew. They read it, classified it CONFIDENTIAL, and locked it in a vault for 60 years,’ one person shared on X, including the CIA documents in the post. Another X user said: ‘The CIA knew from 1951 that cancer was parasites.’

Canada’s ‘SAME-DAY’ Euthanasia: Inside the Rapid Expansion of MAiD

– this is fast becoming Canada’s new “free” healthcare system which was the real goal of MAiD from the start. Canada is the canary in the coal mine. Programs like this will spread across the globe and will be how they address healthcare costs and reduce the population.

Some assisted deaths are being approved and carried out within 24 hours, raising urgent questions about safeguards and consent. Even as the program grows, troubling cases keep emerging: patients approved and euthanized within hours, consent disputed or coerced, and families left asking whether every possible alternative was explored.

The Canadian government has begun ramping up the nation’s disturbing “assisted suicide” program after official data revealed that thousands of citizens have been euthanized with state-sanctioned lethal injections within 24 hours. More than 2,200 doctors and nurse practitioners participated in Canada’s euthanasia program in 2024. Federal data shows about 100 of those providers performed more than 30 assisted deaths each.

Top executives have recently signaled the plans to other senior leaders at Meta and told them to begin planning how to pare back, two of the people said. The sources spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to disclose the cuts.

“This is speculative reporting about theoretical approaches,” Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said in response to questions about the plan.

Major UAE Fujairah Port In Flames As Iran Vows Escalation For Kharg Island Attack

US Embassy Baghdad also struck by drone…

Upon the overnight major US attack on Iran’s key oil hub of Kharg island, here’s what Iran’s military is threatening to do by way of response and escalation – which was also entirely predictable:

“If Iran’s oil, economic, or energy infrastructure is attacked, we will immediately destroy energy and economic infrastructure across the region belonging to companies with American shareholders or ties to the U.S.” –IRGC spox

This is When Volatility Kicks In – Martin Armstrong – Oil Could Test $200; Warns Attacking Iranian Water Supplies Could Bring Out Nukes

Legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong warned in late December to be ready for the “Perfect Storm for Debt, Economy, War, Gold & Silver.”

The rain and thunder started at the beginning of February, and the storm is just beginning. Armstrong says, “This is where the volatility starts kicking in. I think Europe is so desperate for war. My concern with the Trump Administration is I would not step a foot in there. Europe needs war. You already had the finance ministers of France and Germany say that they may need IMF bailouts. This is why they want war. It’s a distraction. Without war, people are going to figure out what the hell is going on. My pension fund is gone. Everything is defaulting. What’s going to happen? They are basically going to be storming the parliament with pitch forks.”

On gold and silver, Armstrong is decidedly bullish on both metals and says, “This is not the major high.  We have too much craziness on the horizon, from sovereign debt default to war.  You are just getting a pullback and consolidation. . .. I am looking at the $165 to $200 per ounce area for silver.  For gold, I am looking at resistance at the $8,500 per ounce level and, after that, $10,000 per ounce . . . in the next few years.”

In closing, Armstrong says, “Winston Churchill said, ‘In time of war, truth is very precious, and it needs a bodyguard of lies to protect it.’”

UK Councils Warn Schools: Children’s Drawings Could Be Blasphemous Under Islamic Law

Labour-run authorities mandate sensitivity to sharia prohibitions, extending censorship into art, music, and dance lessons…

Guidelines warn that depicting humans or prophets could spark blasphemy complaints, forcing teachers to tiptoe around religious sensitivities at the expense of creativity and open education.

The push comes amid a broader Labour government drive to monitor and suppress any perceived slights against Muslims, turning schools into surveillance outposts rather than places of learning.

THE UN CONDEMNS….IRAN !

JEFF CHILDERS

Iran is illegal and breaks international laws or something. On Wednesday, the New York Times quietly reported, “U.N. Security Council Condemns Iran’s Retaliatory Strikes in the Middle East.” The sub-headline added, “In an overwhelming vote, the council backed a resolution condemning Iran. A Russian proposal calling for an end to the war that didn’t assign blame or even name the parties was rejected.”

It wasn’t even close. In fact, the vote established the single largest coalition around a UN Security Council resolution in history. Thirteen of fifteen Security Council members agreed —Russia and China abstained but did not oppose it— and a historically ‘overwhelming’ 135 other member nations joined in condemning Iran. Not condemning Trump. Not condemning the United States. Iran.

The Security Council —the body that defines international law— called Iran’s attacks against its neighbors “a breach of international law and a serious threat to international peace and security.” Iran is the threat. Iran is breaking international law.

Russia attempted to pass a bland, competing resolution addressing the broader war and generally calling on “all parties” to stop fighting (without blaming anyone). Even that weak gesture still failed: only 4 votes in favor, 2 against, 9 abstentions. It probably didn’t help much that Russia is currently attacking Ukraine. Being engaged in active hostilities against your neighbor is not a particularly compelling look when calling for somebody else to quit fighting. The jokes write themselves.

In any event, neither Russia nor China formally criticized the US.

Meanwhile, Democrats and legacy media pundits continue to insist Trump’s Iran campaign is “illegal” and violates international law. Just this week, Senate Democrats pushed a War Powers resolution to halt the operation, questioned whether Trump had already committed “war crimes,” and the New York Times’ live blog has helpfully reminded readers approximately forty-seven times that Trump never got congressional authorization.

What about international law! The rules-based order! Won’t somebody think of the norms!

But, now that the world’s premier international law body looked at the situation and decided to condemn Iran, will Democrats modify their stance? (The UN didn’t even condemn Israel, which is probably another record.) Somehow, I imagine that Democrats will keep on forgetting to mention this vote, as they and their media allies have done ever since the vote was taken.

But my goodness. With a historic vote showing UN unanimity like never before in human history, you’d almost think the rules-based international order they keep invoking actually agrees with Trump on Iran. That’s a very inconvenient fact when their entire argument depends on him being the rogue actor. Just. Saying.

IRAN HAS NO FRIENDS

FROM US COMMAND CENTRAL

Last night, U.S. forces executed a large-scale precision strike on Kharg Island, Iran. The strike destroyed naval mine storage facilities, missile storage bunkers, and multiple other military sites. U.S. forces successfully struck more than 90 Iranian military targets on Kharg Island, while preserving the oil infrastructure.

Interesting Twist Regarding Passage Through The Straits

Already, Iran has been allowing limited passage of tankers, if they were Chinese flagged ships.  Latest developments is reported that they are floating allowing other ships thru if the oil is paid for with yuan as opposed to US dollars.  Puts US on the spot. Allow the oil to flow but at the cost of less petro dollar usage, or not allow and face continuing higher oil prices.

US defense official confirms to Fox News that the Pentagon is sending the USS Tripoli, a Marine Amphibious Ready Group, and the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) to Mideast. The Tripoli is stationed out of Japan and would take about 2 weeks to get to the Mideast. Accompanying the ARG and the MEU are approx. 2500 US Marines.

China Owns Canada’s Only Antimony Mine — Holding Canada’s Trump Card — China shuttered it.

Beaver Brook in Newfoundland could produce five percent of the world’s antimony supply — a mineral critical to warfighting that Washington now calls a national security emergency. China shuttered it.

In the rugged interior of Newfoundland, an hour’s drive west from the Canadian Forces Base in Gander, sits a dormant mine with profound implications for the nation’s security and prosperity. Beaver Brook could be the largest North American producer of antimony — a critical mineral threaded through the entire spectrum of modern military hardware, from small arms and artillery shells to advanced missile seekers and night-vision goggles.

But China owns the mine and shut it down in early 2023 — one year before Beijing imposed export controls blocking antimony sales to U.S. military end users, driving prices from about US$5,900 per tonne to more than US$50,000.

United Airlines Must Face Class Action Lawsuit Over COVID Vaccine Religious Exemption Policy

A class action lawsuit against United Airlines over the airline’s COVID-19 vaccine religious exemption policy can move forward, a federal appeals court ruled this week. The appeals court upheld a lower court’s 2024 ruling that United discriminated against the employees by placing them on unpaid leave after granting their religious exemptions to the vaccine.

Maker of Ozempic, Wegovy Failed to Report Strokes, Suicidal Ideation and Deaths

The FDA reprimanded Novo Nordisk for “serious violations” in failing to report serious side effects tied to its blockbuster GLP-1 drugs, including Ozempic and Wegovy. Investigators said the company didn’t report cases involving strokes, suicidality and patient deaths, raising concerns about systemic problems in its drug safety monitoring.

The FDA this month issued a formal warning letter to Novo Nordisk, reprimanding the pharmaceutical giant for “serious violations” in failing to report serious side effects linked to Ozempic, Wegovy and Saxenda. The March 5 letter followed FDA inspections, conducted in January and February, of Novo Nordisk’s U.S. operations in Plainsboro, New Jersey.

Investigators concluded the company failed to comply with federal regulations governing the reporting of post-marketing adverse drug experiences (PADE) — a critical safety system used to detect safety signals after the drugs are already on the market.

US NDAA signed by Trump includes language making it easier to conscript American teens for overseas wars

Congress slipped language into its massive 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) bill that automatically and involuntarily registers every young man for the military draft on his 18th birthday.

This changed the law, effective January of this year, to make it easier for the government to mobilize young men for war through a military draft.

“If they can draft you, they own you,” (Ron) Paul says, adding that “Tyrants need slaves.”

March, 12: FAFO (or perhaps more appropriately – The Fog of War flows thick in IRAN)

The cardboard cutout spoke —- The Strait of Hormuz will remain closed. All US bases in the region must be shut down immediately. Iran demands reparations, or property belonging to the aggressors will be seized or destroyed. Studies have been conducted on opening additional fronts “where the enemy has minimal experience and would be highly vulnerable”. And vengeance for Minab will not be forgiven.

Ukrainian Companies Prohibited From Exporting Shahed Interceptor Drones

Waves of Iranian Shahed drone attacks across the Middle East have spurred widespread interest in Ukrainian interceptors.

The makers of the Ukrainian Sting interceptor drone told The War Zone that despite growing interest in the Middle East for their product, they are not yet allowed to sell them outside the country. Other Ukrainian drone manufacturers, like SkyFall, are also reportedly interested in providing interceptors to the region.
