As a side note, the guy who pushed the Russia Hoax about Trump, Max Boot, of the fame of being a "spy hunter" had his wife indicted for being a Foreign Asset. Dude was married to a spy and didn't realized it. LMAO

This event will have massive repercussions and it will be used by every threat actor as a road map for further action.

Crazy how things change even I had trouble buying groceries today.

Getting a little bit of Wag-the-Dog vibe here;

1. Biden's infirmity. Attracting too much attention, change the story.

2. Questions about Trump shooting. Attracting too much attention, change the story.

3. Global CrowdStrike outage. Soon-to-be attracting too much attention, change the story.....

4. ?

Someone online said that he was a C++ programmer, called C++ something like "not memory protective" saying it is possible to write a bad memory call by mistake, so it could be. However, given the timing and extent, I prefer assuming intent, not stupidity. The question in my mind is whether it was a white hat or black hat operation. Trump is almost killed but gets nominated successfully, plays "Nessun Dorma" at the close of the convention, which is clearly linked to the clean-up phase of "The Sum of All Fears", and then he talks to Zelensky the very next day and bang, what will be called the most famous null call in history takes place, not coincidentally keeping a lot of people from traveling. Huh.

Crowdstrike software is almost everywhere. Will the company implode now or make it through somehow? Was it an inside white hat sleeper intending to cripple or kill Crowdstrike? The CEO was apparently quite upset and nervous, which seems to indicate the actual intended victim was Crowdstrike itself.

If a lot of people and companies now remove Crowdstrike software and load competing software (which is what I think Musk did with his companies), then the actual outcome may be to make the internet *less* likely to get taken down, simply because the ecology of protective software is more varied and therefore likely more resilient.

If this idea is correct, then perhaps we should look to see what other software companies have enormous spread across the internet and bad reputation for associations with the Dark Side to see whether (once the Crowdstrike issue sorts itself out) that company then gets hit in a way that also fosters a richer ecology.

Today while doing research on other subject and matters (but marginally related to this) I remembered that last month the West suffered the largest data breach in history (The SnowFlake breach), and lo and behold, also connected directly to the WEF, and a critical point on the supply chain.

Safe to say these aren't coincidences. Many of these critical companies are all interconnected with many of the major players and I read something from an IT person that is poignant to this. Entirely regulatory capture driven, these highly connected people influence and put themselves in places to take advantage and, well, do this.

Same as a few of the AI safety people are doing right now !!!!!

Very good observation, Moriarty, but the point of my comment was that the well-placed people associated with Crowdstrike (and the DNC and so on) were "done to" rather than doing this themselves in order to create harm. Likewise, who was actually behind the Snowflake breach? Was it a random mistake or were they specifically targeted by some kind of anti-government anarchist? I saw today that CS came out and said there were actually two parts to the problem that took so many clients down, one which appeared to have been deliberately introduced some time ago and the other triggering it a few days ago. Coincidentally a very short time after the assassination attempt and Trump wrapping up the Convention and calling Zelensky the very next day. Now we're trying to figure out if Biden is even alive while we watch a literal coup d'etat of the US government.

Things are getting spicy.

Whitney Webb (excellent investigative journalist and contributing editor of unlimitedhangout.com) on twitter recently: "For those interested in the recent news regarding Crowdstrike, consider that Crowdstrike is part of the Global Cyber Alliance, part of the WEF-led effort to force you to adopt digital ID for internet access in order to stop "cybercrime"

Professor - change management rules: no update is rolled out into production, until tested in the test environment. Once certified, then version control handles the "gold standard" roll out in staggered fashion (if possible).

Not unrelated... SS rules: secure the perimeter, sterilze, occupy, do not allow clear targets and always utilize failsafe (hit and clear the deck) code even if you think you might be wrong.

In other words, two catastrophic failures based in gross incompetence have occurred within a week of each other. One in Butler, and other one globally at most every major corporate IT center.

And they can't even manually operate a cash register (without pictograms or during power failure) or tell direction by time of day.

Ever since 9/11 was being war gamed on 9/11. and event 201 was war gaming what was about to happen weeks later, I have become so jaundiced that I view almost ALL such events like this as possibly a real INTENTIONAL action or an intentional test run action to see what will happen

Now for example they have a good idea what happens if you take out a huge portion of the internet so they can update their "attack methods manuals". I would presume intended or not lots of geeks are feverishly taking notes on what happened and what is still unfolding as a result of that outage

If you're planning a REAL attack you don't want to just unplug the internet without knowing what will happen first. For example you'd want to be certain that your own private military stuff still works

Yes. A real-world-effects "penetration testing" dry run.

This outage also serves as a signpost to point back to, and establishes handy precedent, to use as justification for the changes they'll bring in, once they've run the main event.

It wouldn't fly to take down the Internet, then bring it back up, locked tight as a drum.

This way they can say "You saw what happened last time. We had no other choice".

I think in rural areas, at some states we have crows, but there are none in the city =( and I really love crows.

I follow this family in Azerbeijan from Country LIfe Vlog (CLV) they have 2 tame crows, they raised them from baby time. They are very smart but also a nuisance at times (eating from everything they find, including on the table, picking cat's tails, pulling table cloth, picking the flower bouquets)

They have so little respect they state and then do and the "people" get programmed to see it as excellent foresight.

Lol the digital version of event 201 is everywhere on the WEF and co's foot prints.

Oops. I got macafee. But you say he WAS - so it might be okay now. What a mess. At least I no longer have Microsoft. That Linux was too difficult and when my puter broke down all they had was this googlemania. (just before Christmas, everything sold out). So far so good.

It is difficult to differentiate a coding mistake and a coding mistake that could have been maliciously added to a working code.

In Zach Vorhies' excellent Twitter post that you've linked above, he says:

“Memory in your computer is laid out as one giant array of numbers. We represent these numbers here as hexadecimal, which is base 16 (hexadecimal) because it's easier to work with... for reasons.

The problem area? The computer tried to read memory address 0x9c (aka 156)”.

Coincidentally, in Hebrew Gematria ‘False Flag’ = 156.

Just sayin’…..

Whose false flag against whom? Feels like we're living through a very dreary and long theater of palace intrigue. Can we just skip to the end?

All of this stress adds to poor health. They know it and count on it.

Detach as much as possible is the advice I give to myself. I am a merely spectator and living life to its fullest.

This hybrid war, undeniably stressful, God has turned into a silver lining for me. JPs substack has prepared and united us, and I'm grateful to have this little taste of earthly peace.

I know I'm going to be just fine. Isaiah 26:3

Sez777, thanks for the smile. A little polish for my tinfoil hat? 😁

Love it when we find crumbs. I take classes at UCSD and this little gem shows up in the url to sign in. 'Shibboleth' is in the Hebrew bible and used as a 'secret code' among among followers of Effective Altruism which was SBF's little pet. Pronunciation seems to be an important part of the secret. Once you see it, you can't unsee it!

Lol. Stay polished. Stay shiny. 😁 Glad I made you smile.

There is a whole unseen side to the world we live in, kept hidden, and for the exclusive use of the privileged few.

This esoteric knowledge of symbols and numbers, in existence for centuries, never went away.

I remember clearly the feeling of being sucker-punched the day I realised that numbers (just like the individual letters of the alphabet) have been used to create an entire secret language.

They are a signalling tool, embedded in everyday communications, and in planned, scripted, public rituals (of which almost all the big news events are).

You're right - once you see it, you never look at anything the same way again.
