AUSTRALIA: Class action VAX HARM lawsuit brought against TGA for negligence, breach of statutory duty and misfeasance in public office

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The class action, organised and crowd-funded by Queensland GP Dr Melissa McCann, takes aim at the Commonwealth government and the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) — along with a number of senior public servants — alleging negligence, breach of statutory duty and misfeasance in public office.

The suit alleges that the respondents approved the vaccines “with no proper or reasonable evidentiary or logical basis to reasonably determine the vaccines to be safe, effective and possessing a positive risk-benefit profile”.

“The action will argue that the Therapeutic Goods Administration did not fulfil their duty to properly regulate the Covid-19 vaccines, resulting in considerable harm and damage to Australians,” Natalie Strijland from NR Barbi Solicitor said in a statement.

Ms Strijland said the action “arises upon the basis that the government did not truly establish that the vaccines were indeed safe or effective for use by the Australian public, and the claim now proceeds upon the basis that the government in fact acted negligently in approving the vaccines and also by failing to withdraw them after approval based upon the known evidence”.

“Australians who have experienced a serious adverse event following Covid-19 vaccination are invited to step forward and register for this class action,” she said.

In USA, suits like this will be dismissed or defeated based on the fact that the DOD oversaw the entire covid response and is ultimately responsible for all of it. And their excuse will be ‘national security’. The vaxxes are classed as ‘countermeasures’ and ‘prototypes’ in an undefined war, hence DOD purview. Let’s see what happens in Australia. ABN

Kinzhal destroys deep bunker near Lviv

The story of this Kinzhal attack dates back to early March. There have been many rumors about this devastating attack, which seems to have actually happened. This video has nothing especially new to offer but it provides a good overview of what is known about the attack and the chilling impression it made on Western powers, who may have lost their appetite for WW3 due to it.

Did the Neocons Save the World from the Thucydides Trap? — Ron Unz

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Over the last couple of years I’d begun seeing our growing conflict with China described as an inevitable consequence of “the Thucydides trap” but hadn’t been entirely sure of the source of that idea. Decades ago, I’d had a very strong interest in Classical Greek history, so the reference was obvious to me: the bitter rivalry between a dominant Sparta and a rising Athens that had led to the decades long Peloponnesian War that devastated Greece. But only recently did I discover that the term had been popularized in Destined for War, a 2017 national bestseller by Harvard’s Graham Allison, which had followed his earlier 2015 Atlantic article on the same subject.

This is an excellent overview of the geopolitical situation US neocons have created for USA and how bad it is, though maybe some good will come of it because even US neocons may fear full-blown war with China. Good read and best not to skip it even if you already sense the core problem. ABN

‘The Secretary of Defense lied… so has the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs’ — US perfidy & corruption described and analyzed

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Excellent interview, full of information and intelligent analysis. Very direct and to the point throughout. This is a model for how an interview can be conducted and how an interviewee can respond. As many of us have known all along, this war has been a psychopathic massacre of Ukrainian men and a disaster for Western geopolitics. ABN

Corruption in Ukraine — Seymour Hersch

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

…Zelensky has been buying the fuel from Russia, the country with which it, and Washington, are at war, and the Ukrainian president and many in his entourage have been skimming untold millions from the American dollars earmarked for diesel fuel payments. One estimate by analysts from the Central Intelligence Agency put the embezzled funds at $400 million last year, at least; another expert compared the level of corruption in Kiev as approaching that of the Afghan war, “although there will be no professional audit reports emerging from the Ukraine.”

“Zelensky’s been buying discount diesel from the Russians,” one knowledgeable American intelligence official told me. “And who’s paying for the gas and oil? We are. Putin and his oligarchs are making millions” on it.

Many government ministries in Kiev have been literally “competing,” I was told, to set up front companies for export contracts for weapons and ammunition with private arms dealers around the world, all of which provide kickbacks. Many of those companies are in Poland and Czechia, but others are thought to exist in the Persian Gulf and Israel. “I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that there are others in places like the Cayman Islands and Panama, and there are lots of Americans involved,” an American expert on international trade told me.
