Putin issues warning to West
Russian leader responds to seizure of his country's assets abroad
The nationalization of assets is a double-edged weapon, Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed during a government meeting in response to some Western countries proposing to seize his country's property abroad.
“We’re already hearing announcements coming from some officials about the possible nationalization of some of our assets. Well, this can be taken very far. Let no one forget that this is a double-edged weapon,” he cautioned on Tuesday.
Major conflict between great powers more likely – General Milley
Russia and China challenge the current world order, top American military officers have claimed
As the world becomes more unstable, the “potential for significant international conflict is increasing, not decreasing,” a top US military officer told lawmakers on Tuesday.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, defended the record-breaking $773 billion budget the US Department of Defense is requesting for the fiscal year 2023 at a grueling House Armed Services Committee hearing. The meeting saw innumerable mentions of US adversaries Russia and China, both of whom are perceived in Washington as a threat to US global power.
NATO to Build New Centre for Quantum Technology in Denmark
The development of quantum computers is part of an international race for supercomputers and is poised to change everything from weather forecasts to military modelling, encryption, and code-breaking.
NATO has chosen to launch a new centre for the development of quantum technology in the Danish capital, Copenhagen.
The idea behind the centre, which will be part of the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, named after the Danish physicist who was among the pioneers in quantum mechanics, is to develop and test new multi-use technology to boost green transition, navigation, research, and defence. The Technical University of Denmark, Aarhus University, and the Danish National Metrology Institute are also expected to contribute.
According to Danish Defence Minister Morten Bodskov, the development of quantum technology will bring major security policy changes for Denmark and NATO.
From Korea To Libya: On the Future Of Ukraine & NATO's Never-Ending Wars
Much has been said and written about media bias and double standards in the West's response to the Russia-Ukraine war, when compared with other wars and military conflicts across the world, especially in the Middle East and the Global South. Less obvious is how such hypocrisy is a reflection of a much larger phenomenon which governs the West's relationship to war and conflict zones.
On March 19, Iraq commemorated the 19th anniversary of the US invasion which killed, according to modest estimates, over a million Iraqis. The consequences of that war were equally devastating as it destabilized the entire Middle East region, leading to various civil and proxy wars. The Arab world is reeling under that horrific experience to this day.
Russia to resume flights with Israel and 51 other 'friendly' countries
Russia has closed its airspace to airlines from 36 countries, including all 27 members of the European Union, in response to Ukraine-related sanctions targeting its aviation sector.
Russia plans to end restrictions on flights to and from 52 countries after April 9, part of its plans to reduce measures taken to slow the spread of COVID-19, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said on Monday.
Russia plans to resume flights to and from Argentina, South Africa and other "friendly countries," Mishustin said, meaning those that have not joined the latest wave of Western sanctions on Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine, which Moscow calls a "special operation" to demilitarize its neighbor.
Less than 10% got COVID throughout the pandemic
Data from April 1 shows that only 9 per cent of Canadians were even infected with COVID-19 throughout the pandemic, and only 0.0993 per cent died from it — despite near-constant fearmongering from the mainstream media.
As of April 1, there have been 3,507,206 recorded cases of COVID-19 in Canada since the pandemic began. For a population of slightly over 38 million, that’s less than 10 per cent.
Additionally, there have only been 37,728 COVID-related deaths.
In other words, after two years of lockdowns, medical tyranny, segregation, and all the other abhorrent actions taken by the Canadian government, COVID-19 has had a total death rate of 0.0993 per cent. This is only slightly higher than the annual flu, which had a death rate of 0.0232 per cent in 2018, right before COVID came along.
Military Brass Are A National Security Risk (Video)
The lawsuit between the U.S. Navy Seals and Joe Biden revealing an 1100 percent death rate that could balloon into 5000 percent due to the injection of the mRNA covid vaccine shines a spotlight on the leadership of our military under a bumbling imposter in chief.
The Marxists running Biden's dwindling brain have loudly complained about systematic racism in the private and public sectors. Yet there is no concern for the systematic ignorance within the U.S. military that allows those seeking higher brass to continue for decades as serial rapists and child molesters.

'When There Is No Food There Is No Peace, America's Time Of Plenty Is Ending And The Casualties Will Be Catastrophic' - Reader Warning With Shocking New Images
The headline is a direct quote from an email from a reader who travels, and visits different stores in multiple states, generously spending time to provide ANP with images like the one above, as he helps us document the food crisis here in America.
While there are still some that visit their local grocery stores and find higher prices and less options, but can still find what they want, over the past two years we have been seeing images like the one above, and those below become more and more common.
The email message with that image stated "Worse here than I've seen yet. Chicken section is virtually empty."
TSA, DHS to stop using gender in security processes
The TSA said it is working closely with airline carriers to promote the use of “X” and “U” (undisclosed) gender markers in their reservation systems, its press release said.
(Daily Caller News Foundation) — The Transportation Security Administration and Department of Homeland Security announced new, gender-neutral security measures Thursday.
The TSA will update its advanced imaging technology (AIT) at airport checkpoints with the help of $18.6 million from Congress, according to a press release shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation. The new AIT system will be gender-neutral.
“By replacing the current, gender-based AIT system, this new, more accurate technology will also advance civil rights,” the TSA said in its release.
Solar Storm to Hit Earth, Prompting Monitoring by Airlines, Electric Grid Operators
A solar storm will sweep across the Earth Wednesday night, raising prospects of dazzling Northern Lights visible as far south as Chicago while prompting airlines and electric-grid operators to step up monitoring of the potentially damaging geomagnetic activity.
Solar eruptions—called coronal mass ejections—burst from the sun in two waves Monday and are building up enough energy to potentially become a level 3 geomagnetic storm when it hits, according to Rob Steenburgh, a space scientist with the U.S. Space Weather Prediction Center.

Israel: Rulling coalition loses majority as whip resigns
Iran could be planning a ‘surprise’ for Israel in Jerusalem - analysis
Hamas and other extremist groups have encouraged Palestinian tensions with Israel in Jerusalem during Ramadan.
Israel is concerned about an incident in Jerusalem, and it could be planning a “major operation in a sensitive area near al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem,” Iran’s Tasnim News Agency reported.
Iran termed this an “unexpected event.” This is language coming from senior Iranian media sources close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC backs Hamas.
THE NEGEV TWO-STATE SUMMIT
The “two-state solution” has made a comeback. That’s the main take-home lesson from the Negev Summit last week. The final remarks of the four Arab foreign ministers, and U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s remarks at the summit and throughout his visit, make this glaringly obvious. All of Israel’s guests demanded that it be advanced.
The so-called two-state solution has a hundred-year history of uninterrupted failure. In 1920, the League of Nations gave Britain the mandate for Palestine, which they were legally required to administer as the future homeland of the Jewish people. In 1922, the British carved out the majority of the land set aside for the Jews and established the Arab state of Transjordan—now known as the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
Do you realise how much you have been manipulated through Government Propaganda over the past Two Years?
I strongly suspect that most people still don’t understand just how much they have been manipulated over the last two years. Nor do they realise the depth of the deceit or the extent of the fraud which has changed their lives.
Most people believe that although their politicians can’t be trusted on the small things they’re probably pretty trustworthy on the big things: that’s what they want to believe. They want to be able to trust that their government will look after them, protect their interests and defend them against the big threats.
The mass of people know that the politicians in government are a bit crooked but want to believe that they are not completely crooked. Questioning that belief requires great strength because we like to believe that people are fundamentally good and we like to be able to trust the people who rule our world. The principle of cognitive dissonance means that most people find it difficult to believe that anyone in power could be determined to control them, harm them both physically and mentally and eventually to destroy them.
(WATCH) Large destructive tornado produces damage in South Carolina, Large hail destroys vehicles in Florida
Calls poured in to 911 dispatchers in Allendale, South Carolina, after what the National Weather Service said was a large and extremely dangerous tornado passed over the area around 4 p.m.
A tornado emergency was declared for the city, located about 73 miles south of Columbia. Damage is still being assessed. “We have downed power lines that are blocking several roads we have a couple of cars get hit by trees and I know there is at least one roof that has been removed from someone’s house,” Allendale County Emergency Management Director Kara Troy told The Weather Channel.
OPENAI CHIEF SCIENTIST SAYS ADVANCED AI MAY ALREADY BE CONSCIOUS
"IT MAY BE THAT TODAY'S LARGE NEURAL NETWORKS ARE SLIGHTLY CONSCIOUS."
OpenAI’s top researcher has made a startling claim this week: that artificial intelligence may already be gaining consciousness.
Ilya Sutskever, chief scientist of the OpenAI research group, tweeted today that “it may be that today’s large neural networks are slightly conscious.”
Needless to say, that’s an unusual point of view. The widely accepted idea among AI researchers is that the tech has made great strides over the past decade, but still falls far short of human intelligence, nevermind being anywhere close to experiencing the world consciously.
It’s possible that Sutskever was speaking facetiously, but it’s also conceivable that as the top researcher at one of the foremost AI groups in the world, he’s already looking downrange.
There's so much chaos and noise, it's crazy. Writing down little pieces of it keeps me from losing my mind.
