Pseudopandemic

Iain Davis is a journalist, author and blogger who is a frequent contributor to news media organisations. In this dense and well-informed book with over 1,300 footnotes, he does what investigative journalists should be doing but dare not do in the mainstream, which is to take the lid off the back story and explain the larger and deceptive context of the pandemic and the likely development of future events. His analysis is highly congruent with that of Kees van der Pijl described by Edward Curtin above. The GPPP of the title refers to Global Public Private Partnership initiatives fronted by the World Economic Forum which coined the term ‘New Normal’ involving the UN SDGs and the implementation of the so-called Great Reset. A related term is ‘stakeholder capitalism’, which is shorthand for large private corporations acting as ‘trustees’ (while maximising financial returns) working in partnership with national governments as state franchises and with autonomous regional organisations. (p. 188)

Davis distinguishes between ‘core conspirators’ holding ultimate authority in the inner circle (e.g. trustees of the WEF and senior representatives of such bodies as Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the Trilateral Commission, the Foreign Policy Association, the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) located at Chatham House, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Bilderberg Group). Many of these groups have historical ties to Freemasonry and the original Round Table set up by Cecil Rhodes and initially run by Lord Alfred Milner. The next circle consists of ‘informed influencers’ who corrupt and manipulate scientific, medical and statistical data fed to the media, and finally ‘deceived influencers’ who are unaware of the larger picture and the nature of the fear-driven psyop in which they are taking part. This involves, for instance, the flawed PCR test leading to inflated cases (‘casedemic’ where a positive test in asymptomatic people is counted as a case), correspondingly inflated death figures drawing no distinction between dying with Covid and from Covid (over 95% of deaths involved two or more comorbidities), suppression of clinically effective early treatments, the idea that only vaccines and expensive drugs like remdesevir are legitimate forms of treatment, and that herd immunity can only be achieved through vaccination, with no role attributed to natural immunity.

These messages were transmitted through the corporate ‘Trusted News Initiative’ conveying government policy by diktat on the basis of a ‘scientific consensus’ reflecting the power of the pharmaceutical industry and vested interests on the part of key players (pp. 287, 322). Any scientist or doctor questioning the official narrative is accused of purveying disinformation and is subjected to professional censure and even loss of employment. The public is expected to place absolute and unquestioning trust in this narrative, while multiple government agencies have been set up to hunt down ‘disinformation’, labelling such dissidents conspiracy theorists, right wing extremists or even domestic terrorists that are a threat to democracy (!). It is to their credit that the BMJ accused politicians and governments of suppressing science for political and financial gain, unleashing state corruption on a grand scale and revealing ‘how the medical-political complex can be manipulated.’ (p. 49) The information war is a weaponised battle for trust, with ‘fact checkers’ financed by industry actually checking for consistency with the official narrative with little regard for integrity or reliable sources. Davis shows how the general public has been emotionally manipulated and deceived while at the same time being pressured into social conformity.

Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci are among those who forecast an impending pandemic and took part in scenario planning simulations outlining the correct policies and procedures, which have in fact being followed to the letter (the last of these was Event 201 in New York in October 2019 attended by key government and industry figures and financed by the WEF, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Johns Hopkins University). Among the topics covered was the necessity of narrative control through propaganda, and the key role to be played by vaccines in which Bill Gates is heavily and profitably invested as well as being the main private funder of the WHO, GAVI (The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization) and CEPI (The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations), all working in partnership to deliver a pharmaceutical rather than natural form of health.

I have written elsewhere in this issue on the dangers of impending technocracy already identified and supported by Zbigniew Brzezinski (1928–2017) as far back as the 1970s. He foresaw what he called a ‘technetronic’ society where the latest communication techniques could be used by the elite to ‘manipulate emotions and control reason.’ (p. 229) We are now entering this era where ‘this elite would not hesitate to achieve its political ends by using the latest modern techniques to influence public behaviour.’ [It was this same Brzezinski who as national security adviser devised the geopolitical plan to lure the Soviets into Afghanistan in 1979.] The messaging is important, and is ideologically based on ‘progressive’ communitarianism (p. 263) using catchphrases such as sustainability and inclusivity publicly promoted by the WEF as integral to the New Normal. Further scenarios have been developed by the RIIA’s Futurescape, which makes chilling reading.

While I agree with Davis’ core arguments related to the intended creation of ‘a biosecurity based technocratic formal global governance’, I part company with his views on population and climate change. I concur that the exclusive focus on climate change is designed to drive fear, but I do regard the overall human impact on the planet as well as existing agricultural and food systems as unsustainable. Carrol Quigley from Georgetown University already had a firm grasp on the objectives of the powers of financial capitalism in the 1960s whereby they aimed at ‘nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole’ with the Bank of International Settlements sitting at the apex of the pyramid and run as a private corporation.

The pandemic served the purpose of a trigger event resetting human behaviour and opening up a pathway to an even more fundamental reset of the financial system fronted by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. It is shocking to learn that the Fed has been further monetising debt through purchasing bonds from the largest two global investment firms, BlackRock and Vanguard in what can only be described as an insider operation for the benefit of these companies. The pandemic crisis is regarded as a unique opportunity, especially at a time when BlackRock states that ‘monetary policy is almost exhausted’, requiring an ‘exit strategy’ to be placed on the ‘policy horizon’ consisting of ‘the successful transition to a net zero, carbon neutral global economy’ not only through green bonds but also by pressuring companies to buy into the ‘sustainable metrics’ represented by an environmental, social and governance (ESG) score. This heralds a new international monetary and financial system (IMFS) consisting of central-bank digital currencies (CBDCs) operating within an all-pervasive behavioural and centralised control system coordinated by the same key players who regard this as ‘a historic investment opportunity’ (Larry Fink, chairman of BlackRock).

Central bankers consider the advent of CBDCs as a question of when rather than if (watch out for a staged cyberattack as a further persuasive crisis) to be sold as ‘financial inclusion’ and representing the polar opposite of green localisation and decentralisation supported by the grassroots. Davis warns that ‘unquestioning belief in their systems of authority is essential for their plan to succeed’ through coercion, deception and, if necessary, the use of force. Hence the need to understand and expose these hidden agendas as a means to re-claiming and asserting our sovereignty as human beings with inalienable rights and freedoms. In this respect, the book is an important wake-up call.
