The curious case of the biolabs in Ukraine

Since the "Wuhan-lab-leak" hypothesis, the world has been at least paying attention to potentially dangerous research.

So, several days ago, when Sputnik News published how Russians had found American-funded biolabs in Ukraine, I've paid attention, too. Nevertheless, the narrative pushed out by Sputnik News sounded very convenient for justifying current military operation that I took it as a peculiar and interesting rather than "the truth".

To my surprise, the existence of some sort of labs in Ukraine has now been confirmed by US official (see Brand's podcast below for more). Also, Chinese have jumped on the bandwagon to support Russia on this particular matter (probably because offence is the best defence).

I'm ignoring UN cheap politicking on this matter as that lot never really solves any "hot potato".

P.S. Russell Brand who is doing really good job on this topic is also on Locals.

Climate change 101

I know I haven't been around lately...work...life...However, the 12-years-old clip popped into my feed and I wanted to share it. The reason? This clip provides the great basic understanding into what are the issues with so-called "evidence" related to anthropogenic (human-induced) climate change and the lack of logic when it comes to the interpretation of such evidence. The sad reality is that even after 12 years from this clip, we are still forced to endure nonsensical conclusions that hurricanes hitting Florida are caused by big bad climate change.

A Non-existent Crisis

The mainstream media is doubling down on the alarmism, and it is not hard to guess why. However, to be fair, consider my little observation an educated guess, an opinion, rather than the fact. Time will show whether I am right.

(1) 'Climate change affects everyone': Europe battles wildfires in intense heat by Reuters (https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/spain-portugal-battle-wildfires-heatwaves-scorch-southern-europe-2022-07-17/)

If you spent time in Southern Europe, Mediterranean, during summer season - July and August in particular - you probably know that heat-induced wildfires are nothing new. In fact, they are quite common and remarkably devastating for the affected communities, and I have witnessed several in person. Most of the time, the wildfires occur due to heat igniting grasses, especially in the areas where there are broken glass or broken bottles. The glass serves as an amplifier for the sun rays, especially, in the vicinity of dry grasses, or even dry pine needles, and as ...

Great interview. Highly recommended.
