As everyone focuses on the devastation that would ensue if Joe Biden were re-elected, or the triumphs for America that would come with a Donal Trump win, the refusal to target and address the real problem persists. The real problem that will continue with either one of those candidates is the government behaving in full partnership with the United Nations (UN), and corporations that are World Economic Forum (WEF) members.
Every issue at the forefront, right now, was initially brought into our lives by UN Agenda 21. Sustainability is the catch phrase today, a synonym for Agenda 21. Thanks to GHW Bush who signed it, the opportunity came for Bill Clinton to successfully integrate it into the federal government in 1993, bringing non-governmental organizations and corporations to the table. With the Agenda 21 framework integrated into federal legislation, the UN could really begin targeting everyone's lives with Agenda 2030 in 2015, condensing 40 chapters into 17 sustainable development goals. As the title suggests, who better to announce his intention of "fundamentally transforming the United States of America" than Barack Hussein Obama. Since that time America has seen nothing but divisiveness between those who have adopted this deception for global governance and those who want to retain the freedoms that have been fought for over two hundred years. In 2019, the UN and WEF teamed up in a strategic partnership to fund and accelerate Agenda 2030. It has only accelerated the nightmare. What did the UN and WEF bring us with these agendas? Strengthening public-private partnerships which is nothing more than corporatism or crony capitalism. The ability of anyone to decide who they want to be for gender equality or having a right to all family planning services, including abortion. Littering the land with wind turbines and solar panels, again taking away more land use and production, while destroying hydroelectric dams that served several purposes. Creating schemes that take land out of production and away from citizens for supposed protection while at the same time forcing practices that destroy it. The integration of Agenda 21 into the now destroyed education system. And dumping money towards an infrastructure that brings the internet to everyone. Then there is the housing goal for you to pay $45 billion to compactly cram as many people as possible into cities per WEF dictates, what better way to achieve the goal to move people into "sustainable" cities for more control. Those are just a few of the damaging actions brought by the UN and WEF that are being ignored, but being served to us by the government.. With Joe Biden's pitch to Build Back Better, it effectively cements the WEF Great Reset into America. There is also the skyrocketing national debt. This debt comes from pushing America into a dystopian world that Americans did not request, while deliberately bankrupting them. Until it is understood that the root cause of current problems is the refusal to address what the real problem is, nothing will change, until it is too late. And it will be too late, if not already. After decades of mockery towards those who have been sounding the alarm, at least now the government is openly admitting to its sin. This is not a democrat or republican issue, it is a malignant cancer in both, a colossal failure to follow the Constitution, a dereliction of the self-governed to keep its government in check, and refusal to confront the truth. Expect no change to the problems with whoever is elected. Nobody is willing to address the truth. The government machine has grown to such a magnitude that there is most likely nothing that can be done to change it. The enormity of indoctrination is such that there is little that can be done to reverse the trend of self-destruction. And that is the truth.

While Israel is being condemned for its actions taken against Hamas following the October 7, 2023 attack in Israel, there are some aspects of warfare being used by Israel which most may not be aware. In February 2023, Israel announced the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to detect and classify terrorist targets which would accelerate the ability to thwart activity. This type of warfare was previously used by Israel in 2021. Using technology for rapid enemy targeting has been studied by Israel since at least 2019 through its Targeting Directorate program, which has resulted in an increase in the number of targets that could be identified. Israel Defense Forces (IDF) states this is "not a list of operatives eligible for attack", but used only to aid in human analysis. More clearly, Israel states these AI identified targets are only for the purposes of determining which ones to strike based on human analysis of the data. AI has the capability of collecting large amounts of intelligence data such as from information channels, social media, and phone usage to determine targets, and determining a location of the enemy. Similar activity by human intelligence analytics would take days. Determining the location of a target can take minutes with AI. While this may sound like an advancement that contributes to the elimination of an enemy, other investigations into its operations contends a different perspective.
Based on "interviews with six anonymous Israeli intelligence officers", +972, an independent, non-profit magazine, reported in April, 2024 that AI use was expanded through Israel's AI based Lavender program that tracks people, a system that decides who to bomb in Gaza, and is being used with little human oversight. According to +972, "during the first weeks of the war, the army almost completely relied on Lavender, which clocked as many as 37,000 Palestinians as suspected militants — and their homes — for possible air strikes." Israel's intelligence Unit 8200, comparable to the U.S. National Security Agency, created the Lavender program. This Unit 8200 Commander explained how AI was used to identify a Hamas commander in 2021. In spite of this sophisticated technology, Israel failed to foresee the coming Hamas attack. In response, Israeli military reports that AI is used to " cross-reference intelligence sources, in order to produce up-to-date layers of information on the military operatives of terrorist organizations” and "does not include automated target annihilation". While +972 claims Israel designated all operatives in the Hamas military wings as human targets, regardless of military importance, no collateral information on “Operation Iron Swords” supports that claim. Iron Swords was the name that referenced a wide range of ground operation counteroffensives. Israel reiterated the “army does not use an artificial intelligence system that identifies (terrorist) operatives or tries to predict whether a person is a (terrorist). Information systems are merely tools for analysts in the target identification process.” So there are two reports, one stating AI has been used for not only identifying targets, but is being used as the basis for actual attacks, some of those attacks occurring in target homes, along with other claims that civilian casualties were of no consequence. Israeli reports state that is not true, AI is only used for identifying targets which is then used for analysis by humans for potential targeting. How does one know which report to believe? There are no links to verify the +972 information, just anonymous sources. And +927 is no favorite of Netanyahu for its left of center reporting. The use of AI technology in warfare raises ethical and legal questions that have not been addressed. The World Economic Forum (WEF) put its two-cents worth in on the issue, generally addressing the Lethal Autonomous Weapon Systems (LAWS) aspect, and it just being another issue for regulation. As usual, the U.S. State Department has bloviated about non-binding guidelines for the use of AI in warfare under international law. There was even a global summit on the responsible use of AI in the military. The United States isn't innocent in this trend, the military has been exploring the same use of AI technology, and for the potential use of AI as well. With continued advancement of this technology, there seems to be a fine line between "semi-autonomous systems and entirely automated killing machines". Some Israeli leaders have proclaimed their intention to become an “AI superpower" and "seeks to position itself as a global leader in autonomous weaponry." Robert Work, former U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense, states at the 1'16":36 mark that China is racing to be ahead of the U.S. in military power with AI and autonomous technology that is a "national plan". But this type of AI warfare is already being used in war elsewhere, perhaps a perfect opportunity for testing the new technology. Not surprisingly, it is being advanced by Silicon Valley for its profit making ability. Eric Schmidt, former Google CEO, "Is Building the Perfect AI War-Fighting Machine" for such purposes as global security, with Ukraine being a suitable AI lab for experimentation. Palmer Luckey is another contributor to this type of warfare with his Anduril defense tech company. These youngsters are building a compilation of weapons as if they were to be used in a video game. Maybe they should spend some real time in a war zone to see the devastation brought on by wars. Maybe the truth is it has always been this way, man developing more sophisticated weaponry to destroy each other. The question is how should heinous people who want to dominate and destroy others be stopped or eliminated? Over time, there has never been a shortage of those individuals in the world. The other question is the danger of AI, maybe it is the real enemy. Could this technology literally take over one day, some say it is already training itself. Or will AI affect what it means to be human, possibly leading to extinction? In 1970, such a proposition was taken in the movie Colossus: The Forbin Project, which can be watched here. Two computers coming together and essentially taking over the world with the threat of destruction if not heeded. Maybe AI technology is the real threat that should be stopped now rather than using it to make war more sophisticated. There are no easy answers to what is just one more problem mankind is creating. By now, many may already be aware of the current "crisis" with the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDWR) "curtailing" the use of ground water to farmers with "junior rights" in eastern Idaho. IDWR based the curtailment on farmers for either failing to submit a mitigation plan, or submitting an unacceptable water mitigation plan, by May 2. In the Magic Valley, surface water farmers have "senior rights" so they have priority over water flowing to that area. The curtailing is all based on the continued shrinkage of the Eastern Snake River Plain Aquifer (ESPA) and mitigation plans to conserve or recharge the water in the aquifer. The Comprehensive Aquifer Management Plan (CAMP), passed in 2009, was intended to establish "a long-term program for managing water supply and demand in the ESPA through a phased approach for implementation". One issue that doesn't seem to make the news is that water rights are the same as private property rights. Even IDWR acknowledges "Water rights are real property rights". Basically with the curtailment, the state is taking real property from the farmer.
In the IDWR's final Sustainability section of its State Water Plan, it states, "Ensure that all actions taken toward a sustainable water future protect and respect private property rights both in the land and water rights", and develop management plans "while respecting private property rights". Idaho statute 42-222A states that when a "drought emergency" is declared, and with the Governor's approval, IDWR "is authorized to allow temporary changes to the use of water rights." As far as what has been reported, there has been no drought emergency declared. By IDWR's own admission, the ESPA "is a key element of southern Idaho’s economy" covering "10,800 square miles", and producing "approximately 21% of all goods and services" with "an estimated annual value of $10 billion." By shutting water off to the eastern Idaho agricultural sector, the economic loss will not only affect the farmers but also the general population and state. In 2015, as junior water rights holders, the "Idaho Ground Water Appropriators (IGWA)" in eastern Idaho came to a settlement with the senior water rights holders, the "Surface Water Coalition (SWC)" members in the Magic Valley area, laying out several provisions that would be taken to ensure water conservation for the aquifer while maintaining senior water rights. Objective c of the settlement states to "Minimize economic impact on individual water users and the state economy arising from water supply shortages." Objective f also states the intent to "pass legislative changes needed to support the objectives of this Settlement Agreement". The settlement was subsequently amended twice in 2015, and in 2016, with a map identifying the well locations in 2017. In 2022, the problem with city growth and increased water demand was addressed as water needs pull from the aquifer as well. The settlement also refers to "calculation techniques to measure ground water levels." Melaleuca’s Executive Chairman, Frank VanderSloot, spoke to the issue of those calculations, or formulas, being changed by IDWR in an interview. He also referenced the massive economic loss this will have for Idaho in which this article provides more details. It won't just be the farmers that will be economically impacted if water is shut off to this area. According to this eastern Idaho farmer, it is about mismanagement of the resource, not a shortage. Along with VanderSloot, this farmer and others agree that Governor Little has the authority to address the issue but so far has not done so. The problem with changes in the calculations and impact on the economy is also noted by this farmer, saying IGWA went beyond what has been requested in conserving water. And in spite of offering to pay for an upgrade to "modernize the Twin Falls Canal" the "offer has been repeatedly rejected." It is always good to find out what the full story is from those in the trenches. However, investments are being made to reduce the amount of water waste in the Magic Valley. Current IDWR Director, Mathew Weaver, has even admitted that "Historically, a significant amount of water has flowed out of the state, untapped." He reports that efforts to reduce this water loss to other states with infrastructure development have been happening for 15 years. Sounds like it needs to move faster. As of June 13, IDWR and eastern Idaho water districts continue to work on finding a solution to avoid having IGWA wells shut off. Another aspect not reported is that water use in the ESPA has been in litigation for several years with SWC wanting more water. The current mitigation plan came from the court in 2019 with subsequent amendments, the last in 2023 by the IDWR Director that increased the allotted water to SWC users. That decision is still being challenged. Now the farmer in this video mentions the possibility of the senior water rights holders charging people who are not in their canal system for using water in the state, which is dismissed by another individual as being only equivalent to twelve days’ worth of water. But it does raise the question of the Lava Ridge wind project simultaneously announcing plans to move forward with its project, in spite of massive local objections. There is also the upcoming Salmon Falls wind project waiting to move forward. Wind projects have impacts to groundwater, and to surface runoff patterns. Even Rep. Glenneda Zuiderveld questioned the relationship between these two issues. While Magic Valley Energy makes light of any water problems for their wind project, claiming the use of water for the Lava Ridge project is "minimal" because the "huge aquifer" is like a "big bathtub" and "in pretty good shape", there is a unreported component to the story. Apparently, "The water required to support construction activities will not add to the cumulative use of water in the region, drawing instead from previously permitted sources already allocated for use, such as those available through rental from the Water Supply Bank." The Water Supply Bank "facilitate the acquisition and voluntary exchange of water rights, for new and supplemental water uses." And there is an ESPA modeling tool for renting water rights. “Water rights can be leased from a willing seller near the project area. The seller would pause their water usage for the two-year period to allow for the needed water for construction.” It really becomes highly suspect that the extra water for the Magic Valley area might have something to do with profits for a project that seems to be moving forward in spite of opposition. To offset their losses some eastern Idaho farmers enroll in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), or the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). By taking their land out of food production, instead planting food for wildlife, they are paid by the government. Somehow this removes greenhouse gas emissions but in reality, it just makes land worthless and non-productive which is another whole story in itself. Most people with common sense would rather have locally grown food to eat, and maintain livelihoods. This USGS has a map that shows the streamflow in real time. Hopefully, this crisis will be solved without devastation to the farmers and economy. As we look at the environment and the amount of water being used, are there ways water usage can be reduced? While this is only affecting the farmers now, at some point everyone will be targeted for their water use. It might be time to rethink that lawn and instead opting for a landscape that drinks less. Alex Newman posted a short video on the dangers that Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) will bring to everyone's life. Although he mentions the United Nations as part of this agenda, the World Economic Forum is drooling for it as well.
