The special "Massacre in Orlando" section begins on page A10 with the next stage of propaganda, 'er, grief, and the heroes of the staged and scripted crisis drills duly noted.
Page A11 tells me "Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and some vulnerable GOP lawmakers signaled Wednesday that they are open to changing the nation’s gun laws, raising the possibility that the political tide might be shifting" as "Trump’s unfavorable rating far surpasses Hillary Clinton’s even as the presumptive Democratic nominee received her worst ratings in more two decades in public life."
She is drawing in the youth vote, though, and where the hell was the FBI anyway?
Looks like the commingling of the gay agenda is the thing that is being used to change everything(!). They are even throwing a dash of religion into the swill and tying it into what happened in South Carolina! Talk about throwing everything and the kitchen sink at the wall in hopes something will stick! All of yesterdays anomalies and questions have vanished, too!

"Brexit plan for the financial world? Cross your fingers" by Peter S. Goodman New York Times June 16, 2016
NEW YORK — Among those who manage gobs of money, the possibility that Britain might actually disavow the European Union seemed until recently like a remote and even outlandish possibility.
But about a week before voters go to the polls to determine their future, masters of finance are suddenly absorbing the prospect that Britain might really walk, unleashing anxiety and uncertainty throughout the global economy.
They used to call them masters of the universe, and it provides an insight to the self-internalization of attitudes and values those that control them. The paper isn't being written for you or me. That's why I can't read it anymore.
If these guys are such masters, why is the world economy in such grave condition?
Like local responders readying sandbags as a hurricane menaces their shores, financial industry overseers have been quietly drawing up contingency plans while surveying the expensive havoc a Brexit is already wreaking. Central bankers from London to Washington have been monitoring the tempest while making preparations to unleash credit should markets seize with fear.
They have been printing money for eight years and here we are.
Angst has seeped into the calculations.
Whatever stories policymakers and businesspeople tell themselves, the only certainty is a surplus of uncertainty. Whatever provisional plans they sketch, they will find themselves mostly just wishing that nothing terrible happens.
Then they are with the rest of us, and I'm exhausted when it comes to fear, instability, and all the other foot-hopping the pre$$ has us doing.
The most nettlesome variable may be trade.
The agenda pushing in my pre$$ ALWAYS comes back to MONEY!
Those urging a Brexit insist Britain can negotiate a tailor-made deal. Many economists describe that notion as delusional.
These are the same economists who have been consistently wrong and who drove the world economy into the ditch while the upper echelon of elite made out fabulously?
Eager to discourage other members from considering an exit, Europe would seek to ensure that Britain paid a price....
Some might call such a thing a threat or extortion, which is odd because we are all supposed to be in this together when it comes to economics, blah, blah, blah, and yet TPTB are going to punish you if you think differently or disobey.

The List — Bilderberg 2016: Middle Class Becomes Aimless as Tech Takes Over
(Truthstream Media) This 2016 Bilderberg Meeting will be characterized by its focus on the growing underclass of “precariats” with insecure jobs and no future in an age of A.I.
While Bilderberg handles the propaganda coup to stop Brexit from succeeding and while they discuss the ways they have of dealing with Donald Trump, there will be a topic with far greater significance for your future…
More than ever, the effects of technology is being felt, and is ready to shake the foundations that our society is built upon. That means jobs with no security, few benefits and an economy with an uncertain future.
(Please see the notes under the list and topics for further information.)

What will be most important at the 2016 discussion?
There are gigantic moves underway with regard to the price of oil and the end of the petrodollar era. The geopolitical effects are not only being played out in conflict regions like Syria, Yemen and the Ukraine, but in the headlines (as seen in the public passing of the blame between Saudi Arabia and U.S. over 9/11) and in economic sabotage seen most blatantly with Venezuela, but happening all across the globe.
The Brexit referendum would be a particularly large blow to the European Union’s credibility and image, and the Bilderberg crowd – who gave birth to the EU – have reputations and egos invested deeply in the superstate project.
But in the long-term, it is the drastic changes in the economic landscape that will cause the most instability, outrage and upheaval.
It is largely centered around the rapid pace of technological growth and the online world, and the grave implications it has for employment and living standards.
Just check out the topics Bilderberg is focusing on – United States “economy: growth, debt, reform” as well as discussion on the impact of “technological innovation” and migration to economic and social factors. Looming largest of all is the ominous topic “precariat and middle class.”
What the hell is the precariat? And why is this term important for Bilderberg or the middle class?
In the age where even the Davos elite are preoccupied with the wealth gap and the power of the 1% over the ‘revolutionary’ masses… the term “precariat” is a modern spin on the proletariat of the next era… getting by from gig-to-gig an in an economy with no clear future and uncertain job security.
Precariat via Wikipedia:
In sociology and economics, the precariat is a social class formed by people suffering from precarity, which is a condition of existence without predictability or security, affecting material or psychological welfare. Unlike the proletariat class of industrial workers in the 20th century who lacked their own means of production and hence sold their labour to live, members of the Precariat are only partially involved in labour and must undertake extensive “unremunerated activities that are essential if they are to retain access to jobs and to decent earnings”. Specifically, it is the condition of lack of job security, including intermittent employment or underemployment and the resultant precarious existence.[1] The emergence of this class has been ascribed to the entrenchment of neoliberal capitalism.
Like the sardonic question posed by Bilderberg in 2014 – Does Privacy Exist? – the precariat is meant to poke at all the American Dream leftovers who will find themselves without direction, meaningful employment or much other hope for the coming decades of innovation under robotics and automation.The topic is one that has been probed by Guy Standing, who is Professor of Development Studies at SOAS, University of London and has promoted the idea of basic income as a global right.
Northeastern University reported on Professor Standing’s new agenda:
Guy Standing, author of The Precariat: The New Dangerous Class, and A Precariat Charter, spoke about his new work to an overflow group of students and faculty in the Raytheon Amphitheater on February 22nd, 2016.
Standing defines the precariat as an emerging class of people facing lives of economic insecurity, moving in and out of jobs that give little meaning to their lives. As such, they develop emotions of anomie, anxiety, alienation, and anger. The precariat is a “dangerous class” because it is internally divided, including college graduates without career prospects, adjuncts and other involuntary part-time workers, migrants and other vulnerable groups that tend to be vilified, as well as what Standing called “atavists” and “nostalgics”. Lacking agency, its members may be susceptible to the calls of political extremism.What will happen to people when millions can no longer find work? Who will support their cost of living and what will justify their place in society?
How will a dead broke government pay for all its dependents in the larger collectivist society? Global government shall apparently aim to provide…
In considering these questions, please also note the presence of David M. Cote, the Chairman and CEO of Honeywell (a major defense contractor) who has not previous shown up on any Bilderberg attendee rosters.
He is almost certainly in Dresden to give a special presentation on: US political landscape, economy: growth, debt, reform.
How will financial futures be dealt with in the face of bankrupt and bloated obligations for benefits?
How can governments pay for all those people to retire, have health care and live decent lives?
David M. Cote is there to give an answer bankers can believe in.
David M. Cote is an expert on financial “risk” who is known for losing $2 billion in derivatives while at JP Morgan Chase, who served on the NY Federal Reserve board and who was appointed by President Obama to a key committee on debt wherein Cote has recommended cutting social benefits in order to reduce the budget deficit.
According to the Union Leader:
In 2010, President Barack Obama named Cote to serve on the bipartisan National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, more commonly known as the Simpson-Bowles Commission.
Cote said he [….] discuss[ed] reigning in federal entitlement programs as part of an overall effort to curb budget deficits and reduce the federal debt.
..
“By and large, a majority of politicians understand the problem,” he said. “It’s a lack of political will out of fear their decision will be used against them.”
[…]
Cote is a co-founder of Fix the Debt, a group of executives and former legislators who campaign for deficit reduction and tax reform. In a 2013 interview with the New Hampshire Union Leader, Cote […] framed the options for deficit reduction in terms of either increases in taxes or a reduction in social security benefits, saying, “If you have people saying, ‘Don’t raise my taxes, but don’t cut my benefits,’ it makes it really difficult to get anything done.”The rapidly aging baby boomers have created a giant problem for taxes and debt. But there are even more important factors on the horizon.
While dealing with these issues is clearly important, and the prospect of cutting benefits might even sit well with many conservatives, keep in mind that Bilderberg is operating in the shadows, and creating a solution for the elite.
These insider titans stand to prosper through the management of pension funds and their investment in derivatives and other vehicles, through increased profits in health care and through the management of a society that has become entirely dependent upon social welfare and benefits just to get by.
In the wake of continuing technological revolution, human labor has officially been discounted, rendered obsolete and has become secondary in usefulness only. The effects of that truth are about to widely felt.
The bureaucrats know it. The banksters know it. The executives know it. The Silicon Valley elite know it.
And here they are, gathered round the table to discuss how to handle the public relations problem of a society about to tear into pieces, or become completely under the thumb. What happens then?

"Oy Vey!; False Flaggots" by David Cole, June 09, 2016
Last week, the 2016 Los Angeles Jewish Film Festival (LAJFF) concluded its weeklong series of screenings here on the L.A. Westside. It’s always a special time when the LAJFF comes to town, because when else are you going to see Jews in Beverly Hills? I didn’t attend any movie screenings (I was too cheap to buy a ticket), but I did attend one of the after-parties, as it was held just a few blocks from where I live. The movie chosen by the Chosen to open the festival wasn’t technically a movie, but an episode of the hit Israeli TV series False Flag. In Israel, the series is titled Kfulim, or “Doubles.” The opening-night gala screening was cosponsored by the Consulate General of Israel.
At the after-party, I paced my drinking well enough to speak coherently with some of the attendees. I asked several of the people associated with the series to explain the name change. Why not call it Doubles here in the U.S.? I received basically the same answer every time I posed the question. In America, claiming that something is a “false flag” is the newest conspiracy craze. It’s a hot, trendy buzzword among American conspiracy buffs (including conspiracy “celebrities” like Jesse Ventura, Steven Seagal, and Exene Cervenka). After the Umpqua Community College mass shooting last year, the local sheriff who investigated the crime turned out to be a false flag enthusiast. Following the San Bernardino massacre last December, attorneys for the family of the killers suggested that it was all a false flag setup.
False flag mania has now reached the point where the producers of a massively popular, high-profile Israeli TV series think the term is hip and familiar enough to garner their show attention and success in the U.S. There was a small air of condescension among some of the people with whom I spoke, a sense of (and I’m paraphrasing here) “if the goyim want to believe every Muslim act of terror is a false flag, we might as well profit from it.” Truth be told, I share that condescension. I wrote disdainfully about false flag conspiracy theorizing over a year ago, and after my experience at the LAJFF after-party, I thought it might be edifying to revisit the topic.
First off, it’s important to get an understanding of the definition of “false flag” among the conspiracy-minded. Initially, the term had a fairly simple meaning. It’s an operation designed to hide the true identity of the perpetrators of a crime while at the same time framing an innocent person or entity. Soldiers from country A dress in the uniforms of country B and carry out atrocities to make country B look bad. That has happened, no question. In fact, it’s an age-old war tactic, although so is claiming that something was a false flag when it wasn’t (country B actually does commit an atrocity and tries to weasel out of it by claiming, “No, it was people from country A wearing our uniforms! We wuz framed”).
Thanks to a dynamic partnership between trolls and lunatics, “false flag” has transmogrified into something very different these days. Now it is used to refer to fake events, hoaxes that were completely staged. “Crimes” (mass shootings, bombings, etc.) that involve no actual crime and no real victims. The “perpetrators” are all conspirators and the victims are all “crisis actors.”
Not only did Sandy Hook never happen, there is no Sandy Hook. Obama faked a town called Newtown and a school called Sandy Hook. Thousands of average people were hired to portray residents, neighbors, students, and administrators, and every member of the media was bribed to play along. There was no gunman, no victims. And of course, not one of the pretenders—not even the small children—has ever betrayed the secret (because we all know that 6-year-olds are the world’s best secret-keepers). Bataclan never happened. The Boston Marathon bombing and the Brussels airport attack? Never happened. The Santa Barbara mass shooting? Aurora? Roanoke? Charleston? San Bernardino? Fake, fake, fake. Crisis actors and stage blood.
“False flaggots reach their conclusions first, and interpret the evidence to support what they’ve already decided to be true.”
I’ve had several prominent false flaggots tell me that I was an “inspiration” for this lunacy during my Holocaust revisionist years. “You’re the one who taught me, man, to, like, examine film clips and photos for tiny clues to expose hoaxes!” I hear that more times than I’d like to say, so permit me to set the record straight: If you think my work poring over documents and taking a magnifier to historical ruins is in any way equal to what false flag nutjobs do these days, you’ve completely missed the point of my work. Please stop giving me credit, and, while you’re at it, stop sending me so many damn friend requests.
As a way of trying to make karmic amends for any role I might have played in encouraging false flag mania, I’ll outline just a few reasons why this kind of thinking is sloppy, wrong, and counterproductive.
To begin with, none of the celebrated false flag experts can point to a single provable example of a thousand people staging a crime scene and keeping it secret. In a widely disseminated piece, found on just about every false flag site in existence, detailing 56 “government admitted” false flags, not one example involves actors pretending that a crime or war atrocity occurred. There is not one single example of a faked incident in which the victims were playacting. The closest thing on the list is the case of an Italian cop who cut his own jacket in order to claim he was stabbed (and this was not a “government” crime; the cop was prosecuted for lying). All of the other examples are of genuine crimes that were, in some cases, falsely blamed on an innocent person or entity. And some of those examples aren’t really false flags at all.
The list includes the Katyn Forest massacre. That wasn’t a “false flag.” The Soviets invaded the eastern half of Poland. They rounded up Polish nationals and killed them. They committed the crime as themselves, as Soviets; they didn’t pretend to be anyone else. When the Nazis discovered the bodies, the Soviets panicked and said, “We didn’t do it. The Germans found the bodies; they must’ve done it!” (In international law, this argument is known as the “He Who Smelt It” defense.) Saying “I didn’t do it” isn’t a “false flag”; the Soviets simply lied. The list also claims that the Reichstag fire was a “false flag.” That’s sheer pseudohistory. Very few historians still believe that the Nazis were behind the fire; most agree that communist agitator Marinus van der Lubbe was the sole arsonist.
If there’s zero proof for previous “playacted” mass crimes, there’s an equal paucity of evidence that they’re suddenly, for some reason, happening every month now. False flaggots are incompetent when it comes to evidence because they work backwards; they reach their conclusions first, and interpret the evidence to support what they’ve already decided to be true. This is the exact opposite of everything I tried to impart as a revisionist historian. Having decided in advance that an event is a false flag, they look for rationalizations, a way to claim that a particular piece of evidence supports their conclusion, even if the claim contradicts one they made a week ago.
With Sandy Hook, a false flag was declared because one of the grieving fathers didn’t seem “sad enough.” Conversely, with the Santa Barbara shooting, the proof of a false flag was that one of the grieving fathers was grieving too much! When Aurora’s James Holmes was captured alive, that was proof of a false flag (“how suspicious; normally those guys are killed or kill themselves”). When Sandy Hook’s Adam Lanza killed himself, that was proof of a false flag (“how convenient; now they don’t have to bring him to trial”). The lack of blood next to a Charlie Hebdo massacre victim was proof of a false flag (“there should be free-flowing blood!”), whereas the abundance of free-flowing blood in the aftermath of the Santa Barbara shooting was evidence of a false flag (“it’s red paint; real blood would have clotted instead of flowed!”). Santa Barbara shooter Elliot Rodger’s vast history of social-media posts was evidence of a false flag (“what 22-year-old has that many online videos?”), whereas Adam Lanza’s lack of social-media posts was proof of a false flag (“what 21-year-old has that few online videos?”).
Speaking of Lanza, another “proof” is that he was supposedly too small to adequately handle a firearm. The San Bernardino killer’s family attorney mirrored this sentiment when calling false flag in the case of female shooter Tashfeen Malik: “She’s probably about 90 pounds, so it’s unlikely she could even carry a weapon or wear some type of a vest or do any of this. It just doesn’t make sense for these two to be able to act like some kind of Bonnie and Clyde or something.”
Too petite to be like Bonnie Parker? Parker was 4-foot-10, 90 pounds. But what are facts to a false flaggot? After the Boston Marathon and Brussels airport bombings, flaggots claimed that scenes of victims with their clothing torn by the explosions were proof of a false flag. “Look at those pants—they look like they were shredded with scissors! Only a ‘sheeple’ could believe that a bomb can blow off clothes but not the skin underneath.” Now, you can show a loon like that the footage of a man in China standing next to an exploding manhole and getting his clothes neatly blown off while his white undershirt stays intact, but they’ll just accuse you of being part of the conspiracy (hell, they’ll probably claim that the Chinese faked the manhole explosion just to trick ’em). I have one false flaggot among my Facebook friends who used the “pants blown away” argument to declare the Brussels attack a fake, only—a month later—to post photos of what he agreed was a real terrorist attack, the ANC’s 1983 Church Street bombing in South Africa. And guess what? Those photos show a victim with his pants similarly blown away.
Any photo can be made to look “flaggy” if you try hard enough. Everyone agrees that the Vietnam-era “napalm girl” photo is genuine…but give it the right captions, and voilà—proof of a false flag! As for the enduring myth of the “Facebook page that was set up to benefit the victims before the crime ever took place,” a favorite bit of claptrap by master flaggot Jim Fetzer, I debunked that magic trick in early 2013 after several of my GOP friends became Sandy Hook hoax enthusiasts.
Along with spouting pseudohistory and presenting pseudoevidence, false flaggots are also quite expert at pseudocertainty. They “know” they’re right, so they have a smirking disdain for all who disagree with them, and that’s led to them becoming exceptionally skilled bullies, harassing victims of mass shootings and—in some cases—threatening nonbelievers. Last December, false flaggot extraordinaire Kevin Barrett, a white convert to Islam (so you know it’s not like he’s nuts or anything), wished death upon The Washington Post’s Niraj Chokshi for reporting on the San Bernardino massacre without “admitting” it was a staged fake. I told Niraj about the threat, and we both agreed it wasn’t worth taking seriously, but he nevertheless made good sport of it on Twitter.
In my day, the revisionists were the ones who got death threats from the establishment goons. The fact that false flag conspiracy nuts are now the ones doling out the threats speaks volumes about their character (and the lack of substance to their arguments).
Although Muslim loons and their apologists are quickly jumping on the false flag bandwagon these days, in the U.S., the majority of flaggots promote their hooey in the name of protecting Second Amendment rights. We’re told that incidents like Aurora and Sandy Hook were staged in order to facilitate the coming “gun grab.” “They keep staging these fake shootings so that the people will become so frightened, they’ll support gun control.” Apparently, the “conspirators” are all-powerful enough to fake Sandy Hook and a hundred other mass shootings, but they still need our support, our “vote,” to pass their gun-grab bills. An all-powerful conspiracy that can be stopped at the ballot box. These Elders of Zion can flawlessly manipulate any event, but they can’t pass simple legislation without the support of Biff and Henrietta Klumpdrucker in La Porte. Fascinating.
And here we see the danger of false flaggotry. Because, indeed, leftists do want to curb gun rights. But they do so not by spending millions of dollars to create Broadway-show-quality staged events with thousands of paid “crisis actors,” but rather by exploiting actual events. The Reichstag fire really is a good lesson—not in “false flags,” but in how a leader can take a genuine event that happened independently and exploit the hell out of it. The Nazis, while innocent of having started the fire, definitely used it after the fact to curb freedoms and consolidate power. The spread of false flag lunacy is hampering the ability of sane skeptics and activists to fight those who seek to curtail constitutional rights and impose leftist tyranny. Indeed, I would think that nothing pleases the powers-that-be more than the growing popularity of false flag theories. As false flaggots are busy arguing over whether the bodies in the Bataclan theater were crisis actors or crash test dummies (yes, this is an actual debate), I’m certain that the people who want to flood the West with Muslims just love seeing folks distracted by that lunacy.
The rise in false flaggism is certainly a boon for the actual villains of the world. Every conspiracy theorist I know lives in constant fear of being “taken out” by “them.” But frankly, if I were “them,” I’d be happy enough to just sit back and watch false flaggers sink deeper and deeper into madness.
After all, you can wish death upon your enemies, but it makes better sense to wish them insanity. Because dead people become martyrs, whereas lunatics become irrelevant.

"Orlando Shooting: Still No Evidence" by Paul Craig Roberts • June 14, 2016
In response to my challenge ( http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2016/06/13/orlando-shooting-paul-craig-roberts/ ) readers report that they have found no evidence of bodies or blood. One person reports that a TV station posted names of some victims, which is the way the absence of Sandy Hook bodies was handled.
One person who said he is a veteran said the AR-15 can have a 30-round clip. That would mean four reloadings in order to shoot 103 people. The veteran said that the rifle can be reloaded in 5 seconds: one clip is dropped out, another put in, and the bolt released. But 5 seconds is not fast enough to prevent being rushed. Remember, sprinters can cover 100 yards—300 feet—in less than 10 seconds. Ordinary people who are not couch potatoes can cover 300 feet in 20 seconds. That means they can cover 150 feet in 10 seconds or 75 feet in 5 seconds or 15 feet in 1 second.. In the crowded club, people were likely no more than 10 feet from the shooter, 20 feet at the most. Moreover, if there is only one shooter, he can be rushed in an arc that he cannot possibly cover. It is difficult to imagine that there were no veterans in the club, no people aware that guns run out of bullets and have to be reloaded and that so many people would miss four opportunities to disarm the shooter. It is hard to imagine that none of the hundreds of people present were capable of presence of mind. Bottles could be thrown at him, glasses, chairs. And no one did anything?
Mainly what readers have reported is evidence that the Orlando shooting is a hoax. One reader sent me a video in which a skeptic uses a RT video to show that the same three allegedly injured people, who so far are the only victims we have been shown, are being carried toward the night club, not away from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiLk-V9DFpc
Another person sent a video that shows the man with the red shoes who is being carried is put down after the camera walk-by. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaNewsknuBw
Here are readers reporting their inability to find any real evidence. Somehow 103 people were shot and there is no visible evidence.
Dear Mr. Roberts, in response to your request for evidence regarding the Orlando shooting, I held my nose and forced myself to watch about an hour and a half of fox and cnn. No blood whatsoever. Nothing real about any of the videos or stupid interviews with alleged victims. I knew we were being lied to the first night when Fox News trotted out Bernard Kerik. We know that traitor lied to us about 911. Why would we believe anything that evil bastard said about this event. Thanks for such a great article. You really nailed it. Dutch
I was watching one of the networks at a local eatery. My working assumption on these mass shootings is that they are fake, either entirely so, as you mildly suggest in your latest article, or perpetrated by government informants. The cameo profiles of victims began appearing on TV last night, as my wife and I sat at a bar-restaurant eating chicken wings. Who believes this stuff? Pepe Escobar and others are also articulating skepticism on their Facebook pages. Is this a distraction from some important stuff going down at Bilderberg?
Thank you for your great work. I agree with your take on Orlando,San Bernardino,etc. Do you think there is a legal way to expose the people that perform these fictitious acts (I.e perhaps class action lawsuits against the crisis actors, etc).? Thanks again for all your efforts. Husni
A fat, crying woman under shock yells out a detailed story to the cameras, without stopping. It seems she practiced the script for a week or so. Such poor acting just causes pity. Someone should have said : ” Madame, please slow down. Fetch your script and come back for a second take, OK ?”
It took 3 hours for the police to proceed with an assault. 53 wounded people lay officially inside the establishment, crying for help. Are there recordings of these desperate yells ? Fifty three folks !
I searched Orlando on You Tube (easy, fast, no sound, and no blood). Thank God, actually.
Was wondering what your take is on this. Veterans Today has it as most likely another false flag. Like you pointed out, many groups to benefit from this. The DEMS are pushing hard for gun control, Israel is ecstatic of more hatred towards Muslims, the DOD loves more war money, and the beat goes on. I was looking for ambulances and paramedics, but saw none. Then the BOZO, known as the President here, gets on TV asap and pushes gun control, never mentions anything else. He was cold and remorseless, and walked away fast. Meanwhile, the Congress and President and Homeland Insecurity are bringing in crateloads of questionable immigrants, some handled by religious groups no less (raking in the dough).
I have not seen any evidence, but I am a bit ’over-the-hill’(62 yrs old) when it comes to comprehensive internet searches. However, I asked my computer savvy 24 yr-old son, and he has not found any videos of the carnage inside nor out. He did suggest to me that if anyone did capture anything on their cell phone, etc., that the police/authorities would immediately confiscate it. I don’t know though… Please let us peons know if you find anything remotely credible. thank you PCR
I appreciate readers bringing to my attention more evidence that suggests we are witnessing another drill, like the announced drill at the Boston Marathon, turned into a fake terrorist attack. That indeed might be what the Orlando shooting was. However, remember, our purpose is not to disprove the official story, but to find evidence in its behalf.
So far all we have are official statements and testimony by what seem to be crisis actors. 103 people cannot be shot without there being real evidence.
It has to be somewhere.
My cautionary statement was that we should not believe massive terrorist attacks without evidence, especially when we know for an absolute fact that the government lied to us about Saddam Hussein, Assad, and Libya. These lies have kept us at work destroying Muslim countries for 15 years, with a consequence that Europe is being overrun with refugees from our wars based on nothing but the government’s lies.
It is not an unreasonable conclusion that a government that will lie to us about Iraq, Libya, Syria, the economic condition of the country and that will lie to the 9/11 Commission might also lie to us about Boston, Sandy Hook, San Bernandino, and Orlando.
My point is simply that we are given stories based not on visible evidence but on claims. These kind of events have to leave massive evidence, but somehow it is not visible.
To recap, we are trying to see if we can find real evidence that supports the official story. We are not trying to disprove the official story but to prove it.
If we cannot prove the story, we are entitled to disbelieve it.

"The shooting in Orlando – a few very basic thoughts
The Saker
June 13, 2016
Frankly, I did not feel like commenting on this shooting. Primarily, because I don’t believe that this event deserves the reaction it got. Yes, sure, 50-100+ innocent people were shot/hurt, but that is more or less what happens on a daily basis in so many locations of our planet that I don’t see how the Orlando shooting would deserve some special attention (for example, just four days ago 19 Yazidi ladies were burned alive to death in a cage by Daesh for refusing to have sex with Daesh fighters). But then I got a ton of emails about that. And, besides, since the homosexual lobby in the USA demands special protection for homosexuals, the massacre in Orlando is a big deal because it is a perfect illustration of how our masters want us to react.
Check out this BBC article: “In pictures: LGBT parades across Europe“. So “gay” pride is, apparently, a big deal to our rulers. Which makes the massacre in Orlando a big deal too. Clearly the powers that be are intensely preoccupied with the well-being and safety of homosexuals. Fair enough.
But then, at the very least, let’s make darn sure that we keep in mind what this massacre has no relationship to:
1) Homosexuality. Yes, the club where the massacre happened was known to be “gay friendly” and the presumed shooter apparently wanted to kill homosexuals. But so what? If he has chosen any other group, vegans, or Latinos, or soccer players or diabetics, this would really made no difference to the nature of the massacre or for the evaluation of the character of the shooter. Innocent blood is innocent blood. There are not subcategories for this.
2) Islam. Yes, the shooter apparently call 911 to declare his allegiance to Daesh and Daesh has, according to reports, claimed responsibility for the massacre. So what? Anybody can claim responsibility for anything, including the Garden Gnome Liberation Front. I would even argue that Daesh has nothing to do with Islam either because Daesh’s relationship to Islam is similar that of a tumor to a healthy tissue: a lot of common DNA, for sure, but with some absolutely crucial differences which makes them mortal enemies.
3) Guns. Turns out that the supposed perpetrator did have a legal firearm license. But he should not have had it. He was known to be a wife beaterand he was reportedly mentally unstable. Under Florida law, both of these conditions should have resulted in his firearms license been revoked. In other words, even if this shooter purchased his guns legally, his license should have been revoked. When an alcoholic continues to drive around in his car and ends up killing somebody, does anybody suggest that cars are to blame? Of course not. And yet in the case of mass shootings guns are inevitably blamed for the violence. So what is the political agenda here?
So if this is not about homosexuality, Islam or guns, what is it about?
It is about making us believe that is is about homosexuality, Islam and guns, of course!

Pulse Mass Casualty Event: Media in a rabid push for fascist gun-control legislation
It's what Everyman should know.
In 2015 there was a popular “conspiracy theory” floating around
the internet after a rash of mysterious “suicides” by high profile
banking professions. What once looked like wild speculation is now
beginning to resemble a vast criminal conspiracy connected to the Libor,
interest-rigging scandal. Over forty international bankers allegedly
killed themselves over a two-year period in the wake of a major
international scandal that implicated financial firms across the globe.
However, three of these seemingly unrelated suicides seem to share
common threads related to their connections to Deutsche Bank. These
three banker suicides, in New York, London, and Siena, Italy, took place
within 17 months of each other in 2013/14 in what investigators labeled
as a series of unrelated suicides.
