China Refuses to Flex

The Global Times won’t even admit the existence of the hypersonic orbital glider that has been widely reported across the West:

The Financial Times (FT) quoted on Saturday several sources saying that “the Chinese military launched a rocket that carried a hypersonic glide vehicle” in August and judged it to be a “nuclear-capable hypersonic missile.” According to the FT article, the missile “flew through low-orbit space” and could help China “negate” US missile defense systems which are designed to target the fixed parabolic trajectory of a ballistic missile. The progress of the Chinese military has “caught US intelligence by surprise,” the report said.

The US generally has the ability to monitor global missile launches. If the FT report is to be believed, it means that there is a key new member in China’s nuclear deterrence system, which is a new blow to the US’ mentality of strategic superiority over China. According to the FT, the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology announced the 77th and 79th launches of the Long March 2C rocket, but there was no announcement of a 78th launch. The report believes the 78th “secret launch” may be to test the above-mentioned hypersonic missile.

The FT also reported that China has tested a new space capability with a hypersonic missile, citing sources. It said the missile missed its target by about more than 30 kilometers, yet the test showed that “China had made astounding progress on hypersonic weapons.” But if Chinese authorities do not voluntarily release such top defense secrets, others can only speculate based on technical monitoring methods.

It is meaningless to discuss the credibility of the FT report. But it is important to note the unstoppable trend that China is narrowing the gap with the US in some key military technologies as China is continuously developing its economic and technological strength. China doesn’t need to engage in an “arms race” with the US – it is capable of weakening the US’ overall advantages over China by developing military power at its own pace.

China appears to be attempting to reassure the world that despite its weapons development program, its ambitions are toward regional, rather than global, dominance. I tend to believe them, simply because for over two thousand years, they have been considerably more sinned against than sinning with regards to foreign intervention. According to Lee Kuan Yew, even their invasion of Vietnam was limited to containing “the Prussians of Southeast Asia” and dissuading the Vietnamese from expanding their field of operations beyond their occupation of Cambodia.

Of course, that’s the problem with imperialism. In order to be left alone, a nation has to develop sufficient strength to impose its will upon its neighbors. The question, then, is if that nation can simultaneously develop sufficient moral strength to resist the imperialist temptation.

One has to admire the dry restraint of the Chinese foreign ministry. It’s all about space tourism, you see.

Speaking during a regular press briefing on Monday, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian was asked to comment on a report from the Financial Times that Beijing had conducted a hypersonic missile test in August, which had shocked US intelligence. The spokesman stated that China had undertaken “routine spacecraft test” to evaluate the rocket’s reusable technology. “This is of great significance for reducing the cost of the spacecraft. The peaceful use of space provides a convenient and inexpensive way to travel,” Zhao added.

But We’d Hear About It

A lot of naive people assume that if there were serious problems with the vaxxes, they’d hear about it. But that’s a false assumption, because there is tremendous pressure being put on those who suffer adverse reactions in addition to an organized campaign to gaslight them about the cause of their suffering:

My name is Chantal, I’m a 37 year old Police Officer from Western Australia and I had a severe reaction after receiving the Pfizer vaccine.

To the people who threatened me with defamation charges and disciplinary action for telling my story, I am disappointed. I’m disappointed that your priority is to silence me for your own ego and agenda rather than ask if I’m ok and offer me any help! At no time have you asked if I’m ok or cared for a second about my health or welfare. You decided that putting me under more stress, when that stress can cause further risk to my life is your priority. It makes me question humanity and how any person can have such a lack of empathy towards another.

The morning of my appointment, I was really scared about getting the vaccine as I knew it wasn’t right for me. I spoke to the doctor about my concerns and she was willing to write me a letter to delay it but asked me what would that mean for my job. I didn’t know and it worried me. That day she had spoken to a lot of people from my job and she said that a lot of them felt threatened and put into a position to make a choice that they didn’t want to and whilst in the waiting room, my colleagues told me the same thing. The doctor told me that she was concerned about giving the vaccine to people who weren’t doing it freely by their own choice. Sadly, I joked with the doctor saying “I’ll be the one the vaccine kills.” Sadly, it could have.

Within 10 minutes of getting the Pfizer vaccine, I got vertigo and nausea and within 15 minutes I had hives all over me. The doctor and ambulance officer got the rash under control but as soon as I got home I had a fever, chills and felt very unwell. For the following 3.5 weeks I suffered rashes every day, fevers as high as 39.7, aching muscles, flu like symptoms, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pressure in my sinuses and a cough so bad that it felt like my blood vessels were going to explode in my face. Some days I cried because I thought I was going to die. I was so sick. When I thought I was starting to get better, I still had extreme fatigue and was constantly light headed. I went back to work but spent a lot of time laying on my office floor and struggling to get through the day.

On a Tuesday night, I noticed that my eyes felt weird. They had a heavy feeling and felt like they needed rubbing all the time. The next morning I woke up to go to work and one eye wouldn’t open and the other wouldn’t close. The one that wouldn’t close also wouldn’t blink. I thought that I had allergies so I took an antihistamine and drove one hour to work. By 9:00am, I felt my top lip go a bit funny and my work colleague told me that my face was drooping sideways and she was taking me to emergency. I will be forever grateful for her making me go as she saved my life.

Within 1 minute of being at emergency, everyone was rushing around me and I started to panic. Next second I’m getting wired up to machines and a stroke specialist and multiple other doctors and nurses were in my cubicle. I was admitted to hospital.

The next morning, I got up and had a shower but instead I ended up having a stroke. I was in the shower by myself and my body started waving uncontrollably and the right side of my body got a weird sensation. I could no longer stand and I was on the floor scared. My right side got really heavy and felt numb with a weird pins and needles type of sensation. At this stage the left side of my face was fully paralysed and I had extreme muscle weakness in my left arm and leg.

I was taken for more tests which showed that the main artery to my brain had a rupture and I had suffered a mini stroke (TIA). I was transferred to the stroke ward at a different hospital that day and from that moment on, I was monitored hourly….

I was unable to have any treatment as the doctors deemed it too unsafe so the only thing that the doctors and I could do was wait and hope that my artery will heal itself. This will take a long time and in the mean time, my usual activities are on hold.

When I was discharged from the hospital, I was really happy as I couldn’t stand being locked up in the hospital. Don’t get me wrong, my nurses and doctors were amazing and I can’t say one thing wrong about their efforts and caring nature. However, it was so scary being home without the constant care. I wasn’t allowed to be left alone and the risk of having another stroke was and still is very high. I was in constant fear and even though my confidence is increasing, I still worry every second. I am further away from instant care and the risk of permanent brain damage is very real. I now also suffer constant nose bleeds and painful joints.

I was booked in for an appointment at the vaccine safety clinic. Sadly, there were about twenty other women the same age as me sitting around waiting. I didn’t really understand what the appointment was about until I was taken into a private room with a doctor who tried to tell me that the vaccine had nothing to do with what had happened to me but then also couldn’t tell me that it didn’t. He sat in his chair stating that it was worth the risk of having another stroke to get my second Pfizer shot. How can a doctor sit there and tell someone those things. He was willing to risk my life to meet what I believe his goal to be of getting as many people vaccinated as possible. He didn’t care about my safety and even asked after I refused the vaccine if I wanted him to call me back in three months time to see if I changed my mind.

The lesson is this: do not submit to the shots under ANY circumstances. It doesn’t matter if they threaten your job, your career, or anything else. If what they were doing was right, if what they were doing was safe, they wouldn’t need to threaten you.

The Downside to Vaccinated Crowds

They’re going to need a lot more medical staff at public events… for the spectators. The latest heart attack at a football game took place during the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle.

Sergio Reguilon is pointing out something to the referee on the far side. Looks like something from the crowd. This can’t be good.

Oh no. Paramedics from both sides are now sprinting over to the crowd

The right decision is made on the pitch. Play has stopped here. We’ve seen scenes similar to this only too recently in games of football. All we can do is hope for the best.

This is the right call. Referee Andre Marriner is sending the players inside with what we can only assume is a supporter receiving medical treatment. Early on in the incident, Tottenham’s Eric Dier was one of the first to get to the Tottenham bench and call upon the medical staff. He was making a chest pumping motion, which gives you a clue as to the severity of all this.

Rule by Pervs and Pedos

Israel may have suffered under the pedocracy even longer than the United States:

An unnamed former secretary accused Shimon Peres of sexual assault, Israeli news reporter Rina Mazliah revealed to N12 on Saturday.

“He pulled me toward him and put his hand under my shirt,” said the anonymous woman. “I said to him ‘wait wait’ and he pushed me up against the wall. I pushed him and ran away. I have an awful memory of him.”

This accusation follows those made by former MK Colette Avital who alleged last week that Peres had sexually assaulted her in the 80’s. Avital told Haaretz that Peres pinned her to a door and tried to kiss her while he was prime minister in 1984. She also said that on another occasion, he invited her to his hotel room for breakfast while they were on a diplomatic mission in Paris and tried to push her onto the bed when she entered the room.

Remember, this guy was one of the most powerful politicians in Israeli history, ruling as its eighth Prime Minister and ninth President.

QUANTUM MORTIS Episode 23

In other Arkhaven news, we managed to work a schedule out with the SWAN KNIGHT SAGA illustrator, so the hiatus for that series should not be as long as we initially thought. He’s already drawing Issue 04 and he does a pretty good imitation of Richard Bonk’s style.

And in other comics industry news, this reported DC Comics ban on independent artists who dare to work with Comicsgate should serve Arkhaven rather well going forward. We’re very pleased with how our collaboration with Joe Bennett is going – the man is a machine – and we anticipate working with more talented ex-DC and ex-Marvel artists in the future. We have no doubt whatsoever that those ranks will be growing in the future as the Big Two gradually diminish in sales, size, and influence.

According to a new rumor, DC Comics is reportedly threatening any freelancer who is caught partnering with Comicsgate – in any capacity – with a lifetime ban from working for the publisher.

Word of DC’s supposed new anti-Comicsgate policy was first made public by Shelley Lopresti, the wife of veteran comic book artist Aaron Lopresti, who himself recently made a turn towards Comicsgate after an appearance on Ethan Van Sciver’s livestream made in promotion of the crowdfunding campaign for his original series Wraith of God earned him a deluge of condemnation from contemporary comic book professionals and audiences.

On October 14th Shelley took to her personal Twitter account to reveal, “As if we needed another reason to boycott DC Comics…..they are now threatening their freelancers that if they do any work for anyone associated with Comicsgate that they will never work for DC again.”

Cracks in the Pedocracy

Another high-ranking government pedo arrested in Washington DC:

An assistant to the House of Representatives’ Sergeant at Arms was arrested Wednesday on child pornography charges, police said.

Stefan Bieret, 41, was charged with 10 felony counts of possession of child pornography after cops executed a search warrant at his home in Burke, Virginia, Fairfax County cops said Thursday.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children had earlier received a tip of an illicit image being uploaded to a Dropbox account, whose owner lived in Fairfax County, police said.

Detectives there launched an investigation in August and executed a search warrant on the Dropbox, which had contained images of child sex abuse, police said.

Bieret was ultimately identified as the account owner and “multiple” electronic devices were recovered from his home. He was ordered held without bond at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center, cops in Virginia said.

Do you still believe it’s just an unfortunate coincidence that there are so many predators in high places?

Murder, He Suspected

An English funeral director suspects the number of excess deaths due to the vaxxes in the UK are not an accident:

In America, assisted living home deaths marked a huge amount, if not the majority, of coronavirus deaths, as reported at RAIR. But it is not just about elderly patients being more susceptible to the coronavirus, there is deep speculation that deaths of the elderly could have been prevented, and may have been deliberate.

John O’Looney and his colleagues noticed that for the first year, there were no surplus deaths at all and if anything, fewer deaths. Those who died supposedly from the coronavirus, O’Looney asserts, appear to have succumbed to a drug called Midazolam given to nursing home residents.

The funeral home director is not alone in his suspicion.

But after the vaccine was introduced to his area in January, O’Looney said that the calls made to his funeral home soared, going up “300 percent”. “I’ve never seen a death rate like it in 15 years,” he said. “Initially, [the deaths were] all exclusively care homes,” O’Looney said. But after the roll out of the mRNA injection, the deaths were no longer exclusively from nursing homes, and the ages of the dead varied significantly.

“I’ve got a 32-year-old, a 33-year-old and a 28-year-old in my care at the moment,” O’Looney explained as an example. “They’re all jab recipients and they all died unexpectedly and suddenly,” he continued.

The majority of deaths appear to be blood clots (heart attack and stroke) and organ failure, O’Looney said. He described one woman who passed away who was “in her fifties” without health issues, and “super fit” who “goes to the gym every day, runs six kilometers”. The funeral director said that the woman was given a booster and “died of liver failure the following week.”

Even if you’ve been vaxxed, remember, the sooner you get off the train, the better your odds will be.
