Sent by a friend, who commented ‘mildly interesting’, which I agree with. Still mildly worth a look because we rarely get honest views of Israel from people who live there or know it well ABN
“Soluble vs insoluble” is one of the most enduring oversimplifications in nutrition. Two fibers in the same label bucket can do completely opposite things in your body.
Fiber has at least four properties that vary independently:
Solubility (does it dissolve in water?)
Viscosity (does it form a gel?)
Fermentability (do colon bacteria eat it?)
Physical structure (intact or particulate?) Each property drives a different outcome. The label binary collapses all four into one.
β-Glucan (oats, barley). Soluble, highly viscous, moderately fermented. Lowers LDL via bile acid sequestration. The FDA-approved oat health claim is built on this property.
Psyllium. Soluble, highly viscous, poorly fermented. Survives intact through the colon. Lowers LDL. Normalizes stool (works for both constipation and diarrhea).
Inulin / FOS (chicory, onions, garlic). Soluble but non-viscous. Highly fermentable. Bifidobacteria use it as substrate to produce SCFAs. Minimal LDL effect. Can bloat.
Resistant starch (cooked-cooled potato, green banana). Insoluble but highly fermentable. Produces butyrate, the primary fuel for colonocytes (~70% of their ATP).
Why the binary fails:
Inulin and psyllium are both labeled “soluble fiber.” Inulin ferments completely, produces SCFAs, has only minimal LDL effects. Psyllium passes through largely intact and lowers LDL via bile acid sequestration. They share one property and differ on every other one that matters. Practical translation. Match the fiber to the outcome:
LDL drop → viscous fibers (psyllium, β-glucan, raw guar gum)
Microbiome support → fermentable fibers (inulin, FOS, resistant starch)
Regular stools → either viscous gel-formers or coarse insoluble particles
The label binary doesn’t tell you which is which. The properties do.
This article is misleading and is dangerous to infants.
It ignores the hazards of injecting newborns with toxins such as propylene glycol, polysorbate 80, benzyl alcohol and highly neurotoxic aluminum in vitamin K shots given hours after birth.
It fails to acknowledge the high vitamin K in colostrum, available to infants as soon as born, the earliest breast milk.
It fails to acknowledge much safer vitamin K orally to the mother within the days before birth.
Blood needs to be thinner at birth, and cord-cutting needs to be delayed a few minutes so blood shunted back to the placenta in birth canal can return to the infant with the infant’s own stem cells for lifelong benefit.
But pharma-allied Pro Publica hides all that in their shameful and dangerous propaganda piece, because there is huge $$ for stealing cord blood and placenta from mother and baby, to sell for profit to the “anti-aging” industry.
She is the loudest, most aggressive pro-Israel voice in Donald Trump‘s orbit.
So when Laura Loomer leaned in close to the President two months ago and warned him that the American public was giving up on the Jewish State, his two-word reply landed like a thunderclap, carrying an ominous message for Benjamin Netanyahu.
‘You’re probably going to be the last pro-Israel President we ever have,’ Loomer recounted telling Trump, in an interview with the New York Times.
Trump, she says, replied: ‘You’re right.’
The White House pointedly did not deny the exchange. Spokeswoman Anna Kelly instead offered a boilerplate response that Israel ‘has always been a great ally to the United States’ and that its military was an ‘incredible partner’ in Iran.
Even Loomer, the far-right firebrand who has made it her mission to purge MAGA of anyone who wavers on Israel, concedes there has been a marked shift in public opinion, notably among Republicans.
She went so far as to suggest Israel should accept the elimination of US military aid, currently a $38 billion 10-year package set to expire in 2028.
Facing skeptical questions from MAGA-aligned college students about US support for Israel, JD Vance recently suggested his support for Jerusalem is not unequivocal.
‘Israel, sometimes they have similar interests to the United States, and we’re going to work with them in that case. Sometimes, they don’t have similar interests,’ he said at the University of Mississippi in October.
That this is a top story this morning and that Laura Loomer is a significant part of it is amazing and also a deep sign of the times. She is a bizarre character to be speaking with the president of USA at all and also to be a center-piece of the apparent decline of Israel. All of this provides even more credence to this video and others like it from the Promethean group. ABN
We finally have the name of the weapon used to manufacture the “official narrative” of the Charlie Kirk assassination. It isn’t a firearm—it’s a Israeli dystopian hacking software called Toka.
The Software:Co-founded by former Israeli PM Ehud Barak (the same man tied to Jeffrey Epstein), Toka is designed to infiltrate any connected camera system. Its specific “selling point” to intelligence agencies? The ability to edit video feeds in real-time or recorded history so seamlessly that forensic investigators can’t find a single digital fingerprint.
The Frame-Up: For months, witnesses have insisted they saw the true “assassin” dressed in all black on the roof. Yet, the “official” footage released to the public showed a person they claim was Tyler Robinson. This is where the technology comes in:
Digital Erasure: Toka allows operators to literally “brush out” an individual—like the assassin in black—and replace them with a background or a different figure entirely.
Real-Time & Retrospective Editing: Experts have confirmed that the software can access any web-connected camera—including those in parking lots, hotels, and airports—and alter both live feeds and past recordings.
Zero Digital Footprint: Unlike other spyware that leaves a “digital fingerprint,” Toka is designed to modify video pixels without leaving any telltale signs of a hack. This makes it impossible for forensic investigators to prove a video has been tampered with.
“Ocean’s Eleven” Capabilities: Media outlets like Haaretz have compared the technology to the heist movie Ocean’s Eleven, where a live feed is diverted to a “mock” version of reality while the real event is happening undetected.
This explains why the footage of “Tyler” on the Losee building rooftop is physically impossible. The figure has no shadow that matches the sun’s position. Why? Because the software is perfect at altering pixels, but it can’t account for the complex physics of light and shadow in a 3D space.
Manufacturing the Narrative: If they can edit the past without leaving a trace, they can “place” Tyler on that roof at the exact moment they need him to be there to satisfy the mainstream media script.
We are witnessing the birth of a new kind of lawfare: Digital Assassination. They don’t just kill the target; they use foreign-funded technology to frame the innocent and erase the guilty.
The pixels are lying, but the physics don’t. It’s time to look past the “official” feed.
Toka’s marketing literally promises to “save operators from exposure.” If a foreign-linked entity wanted to eliminate a political threat like Charlie Kirk while ensuring their operative was never seen, this is the exact tool they would use.
A major flawin the video above is the subject on the roof has no shadow. This provides credence that the Toka technology, which cannot do shadows, was used. ABN
The day will come when AI can answer almost all of our questions.
I doubt it will be able to know on its own what questions we want to ask. In that respect, we will have knowledge or information AI does not have.
AI will also not know what we humans are going to ask each other or say to each other. And only a human interlocutor can answer a subjective question we ask them about themself.
Only humans have complex subjectivity which is difficult for us to figure out. AI may be able to help us with that to some degree.
But how will it help us with the complex subjectivity that exists between two or more humans?
With the help of some sort of brain monitoring device worn or embedded in a human, AI will have some calculable grasp on our subjectivity.
Would it ever be good enough to be a substitute for a human companion?
Is subjectivity anything else but confusion within the human system? Or is it a nonrational transient appraisal or measure of the system?
Subjectivity can be beautiful, ugly, inspiring, boring, intriguing, illusory.
FIML may wind up being the only thing humans can do that AI cannot do. ABN
This statement was finalized and adopted at the Seattle Glyphosate Symposium, which took place 25-26 March, 2026 in Seattle, Washington. The statement’s authors are listed below.
Glyphosate, a broad-spectrum herbicide (plant killer) typically marketed as Roundup, is the world’s most widely used pesticide. The diversity and magnitude of glyphosate uses in agriculture, in forestry and in industrial, commercial, residential and municipal settings have grown dramatically since first approval in 1974.
Humans are exposed to glyphosate through direct spraying and other skin contact, through occupational or residential proximity to sprayed areas, through exposure to dust and through consumption of food and water contaminated with glyphosate residues. Food is the main route of exposure for most people while occupational exposures are typically the highest.
National and international biomonitoring surveys detect glyphosate in samples collected from 70-80% of all people examined, including children.
Glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) harm human health and can cause cancer. The comprehensive evidence supports this conclusion, with the strongest epidemiological evidence linking exposure to increased risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a cancer of the lymphatic system.
There is additional evidence from human and/or animal studies that glyphosate and GBHs increase the risk of multiple adverse health effects in addition to cancer, including diseases of the kidney and liver, and impacts to the reproductive, endocrine, neurological, and other metabolic systems. Children, infants and fetuses are the most susceptible.
Further strong evidence finds that glyphosate and GBHs cause genetic damage, oxidative stress, and hormonal disruption — biological changes that can set disease in motion. Our understanding of glyphosate’s ability to cause these changes has developed from multiple lines of evidence in animal, human and in vitro studies.
Additional research is needed to better understand the full extent of glyphosate’s and GBH’s effects on human health and the underlying mechanisms involved, such as epigenetic alterations, microbiome disruption and endocrine effects.
The evidence that glyphosate and GBHs harm human health at levels of current use is now so strong that no additional delays in regulation of glyphosate can be justified. Regulatory agencies in countries around the world should treat glyphosate and GBHs as hazardous, as some countries have started to do. Agencies should act without further delay to limit their use, or eliminate them if legally required, to protect public health.
Preventive measures to reduce human exposures while handling and applying glyphosate are accessible, proven effective, and inexpensive. These actions should be implemented without delay while research continues.
Safeguards must be implemented to ensure that any reduction in glyphosate use does not result in regrettable increases in the use of other equally or more harmful pesticides, for example paraquat.
Glyphosate is not the only pesticide that has been inadequately evaluated or regulated. The approval processes globally for all existing and new pesticides are weak and fail to protect human health, especially the health of infants and children. This system needs to be fundamentally revised. Regulatory agencies need to make pesticide approval decisions based on a more comprehensive and unbiased suite of health effects data. If pesticide use is approved, these agencies must closely monitor use, exposure data and harmful outcomes, especially for susceptible and highly exposed groups. The costs of obtaining such data must be borne by the pesticide industry, but the testing must be conducted by laboratories and organizations independent of the pesticide industry and free from financial conflicts of interest (COI), defined as funding from industries and trade associations that have a financial stake in the outcome.
Risk-assessment methods and processes used to evaluate pesticides must be updated to use best-available science, including: using transparent, consistent and unbiased approaches to evaluate all the evidence; accounting for human variability and susceptible populations such as fetuses, infants and children, and highly exposed populations such as farmworkers; accounting for cumulative exposures and risks for pesticides that contribute to common adverse health outcomes; and identifying adverse health effects and risks at all exposure levels. This is clearly not the case now.
All scientific evidence used in pesticide evaluations must be publicly available, not labeled proprietary or restricted to active ingredients, and must comply with laws protecting human subjects in research. Financial COI, which do not include government funding, must be addressed throughout the research and regulatory processes, including accounting for bias from industry-funded studies, and ensuring that individuals with financial COI are barred from participating in scientific advisory panels and other bodies that formally review scientific data.
Ultimately, pesticide use must be reduced overall, and eliminated to the extent possible. This is consistent with the United Nations Global Biodiversity Framework global target to reduce pesticide risks by 50% by 2030 relative to 2010–2020 and replace pesticides with safer, more sustainable pest control systems that rely more on prevention than treatment. This is imperative for the health of humans, ecosystems and future generations.
…According to official data, there are 1.82 million practicing physicians in the EU, about four per thousand inhabitants. Including retired doctors, there are at least two million doctors, for 450 million people. In addition, there are 456,000 pharmacists working in pharmacies, 365,000 dentists, and 3.6 million nurses. Overall, there are at least seven million medical personnel, to which number should also be added thousands working in the various health ministries, in hospital administration staffs, in health insurance companies, as ambulance personnel, in the pharmaceutical industry, so that the total number of people employed in the “health industry” may be between eight million and ten million people. Add to that the number of dependents and family members, and one could say that some twenty million EU citizens depend wholly or partly on money earned in the health business. According to official figures, health care spending in the EU in 2022 was ten percent of GNP, en enormous figure, while the EU pharmaceuticals market was estimated at over 500 billion Euro in 2024.
Given those numbers, it is not very surprising that governments and business would want to make sure that physicians take the kind of decisions (i.e. make diagnoses and write prescriptions according to strict guidelines) that sustain the system and make it profitable. In a sense, the almost two million physicians are the front troops of the system. As long as they prescribe the pills and vaccinations that the pharmaceutical industry produces, the system will thrive. One could also say those almost two million doctors are drug pushers just as much as street dealers in marijuana, cocaine and fentanyl. This latter business in Europe is estimated at 30 billion Euro (2019), but this is all tax free.
In line with centralized medicine, medical students across the EU are being trained to think alike and behave like loyal members of the state-directed medical establishment. In other words, the EU medical establishment (already part of a global network controlled and managed by the WHO), functions like the Roman Catholic Church or a traditional old-style Communist Party. Medical “consensus” (imposed top-down) is for physicians what dogma is for Roman Catholic clergy and the party line for Communists. All physicians are required to adhere to medical consensus and those who don’t are made to pay for it. It means that in practice the Hippocratic oath is no more than a cute folkloric custom without content or true meaning.
USA is very similar. Furthermore, it does appear that the totalitarian medical system has been and still is a spearhead of universal totalitarianism. The same kinds of totalitarian control are present in news media, social media algorithms, captured agencies throughout government, government itself. The human need to socialize and conform is being used against us in every example you can think of: A general rule is conjured, followed by regulations, typically lower down on the ladders of power. Then these regulations metastasize and multiply into other organizations. Then they climb and descend the ladders of power. Like all fractal processes, there are currents of control going both ways, all ways, bottom to top, top to bottom. Before long, you have elementary school teachers deciding your child’s gender in a school system that has previously ruled it is in the best interests of your child that you will not be told what is happening. Totalitarianism is maddening in its details, a telling fact that always identifies it. ABN
The daughter of a Hollywood mob boss has shared a chilling revelation from her father that offers new insight into one of America’s most notorious unsolved murders.
Luellen Smiley is the daughter of mobster Allen Smiley – a member of a loose alliance between the Italian and Jewish mafias known as National Crime Syndicate, which dominated organized crime in the US in the early to mid-20th century.
He was next to Bugsy when he was shot through a window of his mistress’s $17 million Beverly Hills mansion – murdered in cold blood with two gunshots to the head on June 20, 1947. His killer has never been found.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Luellen recounted the 1983 deathbed conversation she had with her father that revealed just how close he had been to Bugsy and throws open new questions about the intended target of the hit.
‘He was in the hospital. He was dying of liver failure,’ Luellen explained.
‘And he said, “There’s going to be a lot of talk about me after I pass. And you’ll read things in the newspaper about me. Just remember that [Bugsy] was my best friend, and he would take a bullet for me.”‘
Luellen said she was certain that her father knew who Bugsy’s killer was but he never told her, police or the FBI, despite law enforcement’s persistent efforts to get him to talk.
Luellen described her father as a man who was ‘tyrannical’ but also ‘devoted’
