As the COVID-19 pandemic consumes the health and takes the lives of thousands upon thousands of our fellow human beings, the "news" of this global tragedy also takes a toll upon innocent people. In this time, people who operate media outlets are either of two fundamental mindsets: they can be either people of faith or people without any serious faith. The people of genuine faith seem to promote hope and sincerely seek ways to be of help to solve problems -- even to solve the spread of the disease -- even to find a real cure for the disease. The people without any serious faith promote fear and fan the fear into flames of panic within the minds and hearts of those who have the audacity to hope for a victorious outcome.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has paid a high price for the National Unity Government being forged with Benny Gantz - by agreeing to Gantz becoming Israel’s Prime Minister in 18 months’ time without going to an election.
Netanyahu had run out of time to explore other options – having had that decision foisted on him by two extraordinary High Court of Justice cases ordering the Knesset Speaker – Yuli Edelstein – to convene the Knesset contrary to the Knesset’s own rules and procedures.
Compliance by Edelstein would have unleashed a train of events that would have caused havoc and instability at a time when unity was sorely needed. Edelstein resigned.
It is indeed a miracle that Netanyahu and Gantz rescued Israel from this rapidly escalating political and constitutional crisis at the same time as Israel is coping with the ravages of Covid-19.
Cutting through Fox News packaged propaganda: One day after their latest anti-Trump poll would have you believe that Joe Biden is "CRUSHING" President Donald Trump in 2020 voting polls, comes Chris Stirewalt saying the Coronavirus outbreak left Joe Biden 'adrift' and 'on the shelf' (Samuel Chamberlain, Fox News, March 30, 2020.)
But Stirewalt didn't mention that it was Fox News who, in their latest misleading poll, took Biden off the shelf.
Animals Need Social Distancing TooA comedic uncle called today to ask how we are surviving in our lockdown quarantine, if we have food and medicine, if we are lonely, cabin feverish, closer than ever, or ready to kill each other.
He told us that his son and best friend were coming out of their police-imposed two-week quarantine upon their return flight from a European Union country. The police made sure they went straight home and stayed there for two weeks. In order to provide groceries and medication for his elderly parents, his son could now receive a special travel document within the city presentable to police roadblocks upon request.
People want to know: just how bad is the COVID-19 virus and is fighting it worth the destruction of the world's economic and financial system while disrupting the lives of hundreds of millions of people? The story behind the story will make it clear that things are seldom as they seem.
In short and when seen through the lens of Sustainable Development, aka Technocracy, the whole world has just been punked and then panicked into destroying itself over COVID-19.
If I could reach through my screen and physically shake people with this news, I would.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the US front man for managing the "pandemic," has just written an article that ought to be titled: I WAS WRONG AND THIS IS MY CONFESSION.
