   INTO A GAP OF LOST HISTORY

      What is found on the following web page is not fiction or something from an Indiana Jones riddle.  The information herein is also not found on any other website.  It involves TRV, a new frontier of psychic accoutrements on a timescale of the future as well as the past.  

      Unhinge your mind from mortal hearsay, preconceived notions of what technical remote viewing (TRV) may or may not be, and take a journey on endless paths beyond the thoughts and journeys of archeologists, astronomers and other scientific minds, and enter the inter-dimensional mind.  Is it possible?

      History can sometimes be aloof, and it may take an historian to remind us where we have travelled before.  Take this example, of the night of March 30, 2001about 10 years before the 2011 recession-depression, when we find a night with a glow most memorable, especially if you were in a part of the country where it was visible to the eye, the night the skies of North America, and many other parts of the world, were painted with dazzling shimmering colors. 

      Too bad if you lived like in Los Angeles or Detroit, New York, Chicago, you were socked in by clouds.  Unlinked in history was a night when a giant sunspot from the Sun created all this.  The point is that the giant sphere of our Sun is vital to the new stories found in Alert For The Times, Book of Secrets, an ebook written by historian Robert C. Valentine.   You will find many historical links within the digital book, such as James Jancik of Feet to the Fire from Chicago,  and Art Bell, George Noory, names familiar to Coast To Coast AM listeners, involving research many years in the making.  And, we take you back, back in time some 20 years and more involving endless paths of information not found elsewhere.   This includes the unusual story of March 30 and CMEs (below from AM radio).   

     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Major Dames is executive director for the Matrix Intelligence Agency, a private consulting group.  He formerly directed Psi Tech and is retired. Remember these names? Mission Impossible, I Spy, 007 James Bond, the older Secret Agent or Mission Impossible fighting subversives and the Soviet-era bad guys?  Part of Maj. Dames' life story in relation to TRV is described here and he is the real deal, although mainly electronic warfare counterfuge.  He is a decorated military intelligence officer primarily in electronic warfare, training and operations officer in espionage, biological case officer, and an original member of the U.S. Army prototype remote viewing training program. He was a technical consultant for the feature film Suspect Zero, (a Tom Cruise-Paula Wagner production), and he also played the role of an FBI remote-viewing instructor in the movie.

    Please note, an ebook and book have more information than is presented here.   It fills the world of the bizarre.

      A most profound prognostication he ever made was a strange one, involving the chilling story of a Boeing 767 jetliner that crashed 60 miles south of Nantucket, Massachusetts, in October of 1999 killing all 217 aboard.  During the night of Thursday, November 11, 1999, Maj. Dames appeared on Art Bell’s radio program, Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell.  This 5-hour program was heard Monday through Friday live in the late evening, 10 pm PST.  It is now under the helm of George Noory.  Maj. Dames had foreseen the destruction of the jet.  What follows is only a synopsis...BUT IF YOU really want the full information and all the news scoops to your heart's content, complete with informative videos, his story is offered in Alert For The Times, Book of Secrets in avid detail. The digital ebook version runs in the neighborhood of 12 Mb, and all the latest updated information is now available starting a week before Easter 2023.  Almost 50 years ago, the subject TRV, short for Technical Remote Viewing, had been secretive, nestled under a government program.   Other books on the market describe and center on the distant relatives, like coordinate remote viewing etc.

     Do you remember July 23, 2014?

   A history of Technical Remote Viewing and Major Dames

      During the course of the author’s research—Robert C. Valentine—on Maj. Ed Dames and remote viewing which spans 27 years, there have been quite a variety of topics put on file.   We shall concentrate here on only five: EgyptAir Flight 990, a strange fungus, the weather, COVID-19, AND the Ukraine crisis.   What Maj. Dames had to say about COVID-19 is extremely timely.  

    Pictured below alongside Major Ed Dames is the brother of the author, George, and to the right is Robert

endless time Geo-MajDames-Robert.gif


    The flight of a giant jet that crashed in 1999: EgyptAir Flight 990 (cont)

   From the world of parapsychology labs, we bring you a story about the fight and take-over of a giant jet that crashed late 1999.

    “There was a violent altercation in the cockpit, Art.

    One of the crew members, or it could have been a flight attendant attacked the pilot from behind.   There was a very violent altercation [that] followed, part of members of the crew tried to hold down a single individual, but the individual got up again. And started essentially...went postal in the cockpit, that is why when the cockpit voice recorder is retrieved, you will hear that in the recorder...”

    The quote above was made by Maj. Ed Dames on November 11, 1999, between 11 and 11:30 pm PST BEFORE the flight recorder was retrieved from a crashed EgyptAir Flight 990.  The following educational video is included for a better understanding of this event, assisted by the information gathered from the flight recorder, which was found from the deep of the Atlantic several days later after Nov. 11.   This was an exceptional example of alerting the public before the investigators made their public findings.  [Note: Rivets to be inspected for damage?  Yes, but according to the NTSB, 767 aircraft have provisions for such things to avoid a crash, and there is the account of the flight officer repeating over and over, when he was still alone in the cockpit <I rely on Allah.>   See also The Atlantic Monthly, November 2001 issue.]  

     Major Dames is not some seer who predicts the future or intuitive who brings astonishing revelations.   On some things it must be said he has been incorrect; he has been chillingly correct on others.   He is of the belief the ozone conditions will continue to deteriorate so bad, the structure of our society changes radically. 

     Since 1995, Maj. Dames, recipient of the Legion of Merit from the U.S. Army, paratrooper, a biological case officer, specialist in bio-electronics and bio-chemical warfare, has been publicly predicting earth changes.   Since 1996 he has spoken about wild, rapacious winds to come down on deck, with the strength of a tornado or hurricane but, in reality not from a tornado or hurricane. 

     Is it invented?   Is it amazing?   He warned to be on our guard. 

     From October 12, 1996, Maj. Dames has been making announcements about what to watch out for, and the author has been monitoring him every step of the way.  It is set forth in the wonderfully informative ebook:  Alert: For The Times, Book of Secrets.  The updated version after 27 years in deep research is available.  People, moreover, do not compute that there is a difference between remote viewing moving people and something ecologically large.   The information is so fantastic, nobody else has conveyed it, and that is what makes this 370+page digital book unique. 

      September, 28, 2001: “We are better than the best natural psychics who have ever lived at what we do.... ” Major Ed Dames

Maj. Ed Dames

   Remote Viewing and a new plant fungus 

 

     Maj. Dames made a most bizarre prediction in April of 1998, when he revealed a new genus of plant fungus would sweep the world.   About 13 days before Father Malachi Martin appeared as a guest on Coast To Coast AM, during the night of April 24-25, 1998, the author was able to record what Dames told Art Bell on the air on Coast To Coast AM, and he stated that this new plant fungus “appears to accelerate the growth of fungi.”   He also said that the African fungus, a particular matter in the atmosphere over Africa will affect food crops, not animals.  It later became known as Ug99, which is an amazing complex form of blight, Wheat Stem Rust.  A horrible devil of a disease that is eating the whole plant.  We in America may take food for granted however, in places like India something that affects plants like wheat, which India is the second largest producer of wheat in the world and a foundation of Indian substanance, Ug99, if left unchecked, can reverse everything that Dr. Norman Borlaug accomplished. 

Date: April 8, 1999 Extra From: Fox News Science Tech section: “A new mutated form of the stem rust fungus, a disease... reappeared suddenly several weeks ago at” a farm in the rainy highlands of Uganda, as discovered by a research group of scientists from Mexico.  The reappearance of the wind-borne spores which grow on plant stems threatens a genetic fix introduced in the 1950s and 1960s.  

 

   This killer rustlike fungus— has already spread from Africa, as Maj. Dames told us over 23 years ago that it would.   Author Valentine has the actual recording that Dames made back in 1998.  That despicable blight is called Ug99, and that is revealed for you in the ebook.  This is something that the team of remote viewers led by Maj. Dames clearly foresaw as a future event—just like the Fukushima Japanese earthquake and nuclear disaster that was predicted years before it even occurred.   A powerful report on the nuclear disaster is also found in this interview from March 31, 2016 heard on Coast To Coast, when Linda Moulton Howe was interviewed by George Noory--if you can find it, it is worth your while--the repercussions have not abated.  A fungus that has evolved—for over 20 years—that most Americans don’t know about?   A mutation that almost no wheat crop can resist the horrible destruction?  

 

*Do you remember the year 2004? It was severe in tornadoes, cyclones, hurricanes and straight-lined winds.   Were 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 all the same? 2004 seems to be an unforgetable and notable year in terms of winds.

     Instead of sticking to special contracts with wealthy clients or military intelligence, Maj. Dames expanded into the avenue of the biosphere. 

     The source of Maj. Dames’ predictions is technically not based on a prediction, a fragile premonition or a lucky guess.  It is not telekinesis-the ability to move objects at a distance.  The subject is Technical Remote Viewing (TRV). The pathway for technical remote-viewing involves brainwave frequency, a synthetic telepathy that operates around the brainwave frequency of 4-7 Hz, known as theta. 

     Since the mid-nineties, when Dames and his team had set a course to go public, he and his team had been processing the mind pattern of what the future would hold, and in terms of weather, they did not see the extremes of weather lessening.  The nature of TRV involves a dimension of once-highly-classified techniques.  Techniques once developed at SRI by pioneer Ingo Swann as far back as the 1970s, under coordinate remote-viewing.

   Technical Remote Viewing, Maj. Dames and The Year of Winds 

    

     Dames and company were conducting environmental studies when 19 years ago on April 10 , 2004, Major Dames made a pronouncement that extreme winds would be seen in 2004.  What kind of a deal is that?  What made it so special?   Both mainstream scientists and numerous weather bureaus cannot deny the fact Maj. Dames made a statement on April 10, 2004, well before 2004 became critical, that 2004 would be the "year of winds“.  This historical point should not be muffled.  [Since 1900, typical tornado year counts hovered around 1,100 so, maybe you may think, the count went a bit above that.  If you do not know the full story, the following may shock you.]

 



     In 1999, historically at least 1,236 tornadoes had been reported and that was rather high, but, that was eclipsed in 2004.  

     So many people today forget that Major Dames made a pronouncement, and the Major’s pronouncement regarding 2004 that 2004 would be “the year of winds” seems to have played out as those events constituted a year of winds beyond normal.
     Before we delve into 2004, allow us to quote a person who has nothing to do with Maj. Dames or technical remote-viewing. Chief meteorologist Jack Hayes, Director of NWS said this about the howling winds and wind storms, “In my weather career spanning four decades, I've never seen a year quite like 2011....with nearly every conceivable type of weather.”

     2011?

     Yes, for in 2011, despite a massive outbreak of twisters, and also other record breaking phenomena, those winds—a horrific and powerful series of record-breaking wind-stormsdid not break the record of 2004, and the record of confirmed tornadoes still stands.       

    When the year ended in 2004, the United States people had been subjected to a murderous 1,722 twisters.   In 2011, despite a massive outbreak of twisters, the record was not broken, as it had tallied 1,704.  And, into the record books it went in second place.

 

 
   
The year of winds forms a record and a testament to the accuracy of Major Dames!


   

      I also remember going back to the year 1998 when I learned that the Astronomical Society had issued one of its first warnings to military establishments to be aware of solar flares due to Sun bursts which may blast high altitude pilots and affect radio wave communications—words echoing Maj. Dames.  Then, what followed the closing of summer of 1998?  Thousand of homing pigeons became lost in unheard of numbers.  Look up in google the early Oct. 1998 story of the pigeon race of over 1,800 birds that were part of a 200-mile homing-pigeon race from New Market VA to Allentown PA.  Or, also of another pigeon race that started in western Pennsylvania where 700 out of 900 pigeons went missing.   They are startling news of over 1800 pigeons that lost their homing instincts.  That along with bees being blinded and close to over 300 whales beaching themselves and perishing off remote coasts of the globe.  Ditto with dolphins.  At that time no one knew for sure why these stories occurred, but Major Dames did provide an answer and it is found in the fascinating new ebook.  

    On Oct 1, 1998, on Coast To Coast AM came the creepy news from Maj. Dames:  he exclaimed a remarkable strong wave of radiation, a geomagnetic Sun flare, had depressed our upper Earth atmosphere.  Its intensity was of a short duration but it was never seen before by world scientists.  

    On the West Coast of the United States, moreover, the burst turned night into day in the upper ionosphere.  But it was not from our Sun.   It was a gigantic implosion from a super dense neutron star, some 26,000 light years away, Magnetar SGR 1900+14.  Maj. Dames did not mention at first it was SGR 1900+14; he did not state, "Ladies and gentlemen we will be hit by SGR 1900+14 on so and so date."  But, he did warn us about the sun bursts and that it would grow in ugly ferocity.  Can you imagine that?    Something so far away, like 26,000 light years away and still having us feel the affects?
    Is is merely some Doomsday implantations?  

    This is all chronicled in a book that seems to be too amazing to be believed—another indication of something Maj. Dames on Coast To Coast AM has tried to warn people beforehand, and revealed in Alert: For The Times, Book of Secrets. 

    Despite the fact recent historical developments are propelling weather-related news to the forefront, it seems people, unfortunately, are making it out to be only a global warming picture.  You either are for it or against it.      Bingo, that’s how people place the ocean currents, atmosphere or the changes in Greenland and Antarctica weather picture.  The author has studied the topic of weather and climate long enough to know this.  This author  provides serious researched information that forms an unusual historical track record and that is not found anywhere in the entire world in book form.     

     All this is enumerated in the fine book.  But, whether it’s explainable by science or not, there exist a few things that have occurred and remain to this day unexplainable by science.   The sun is strangely quiescent now.   No scientist can explain why the sun exploded the way it did in March of 2001.   Nor, why another burst of energy with a killer force more powerful than every nuclear devise being detonated at once chose to do its thing on November 4, 2003.   Only by the grace of God, Earth was luckily not facing the direction of the Sun, for if it had, the repercussions are too horrible to even contemplate.   That is no fabrication.

    Author Valentine has it all chronicled in tantalizing format in his ebook.  

 

    It gives you a bio on Major Ed Dames and the rise of PSI Tech from the 1990s, plus the disenchanting economy and weather of our time that is not found anywhere else!--items of our modern history that are quite relevant to us.   

    Here are further examples of what readers may see in this reference document—AND it auspiciously includes the 2008: NY Thunderstorm Ground ZeroChicago 7:30 central time August 5, 2008; Hurricane Sandy, and 2021 the year of heat.  

   

 

    However, on the timetables of time, some items in the book do not involve the weather.

    On national radio on Coast To Coast AM, Jan. 1, 2005, Dames predicted that a huge quake of 9 would hit Indonesia in March.
    On March 28, it materialized.

    He warned to be on our guard. 
    He also warned about something entirely different, and that dealt with the economy. 
    Before our economy circa 2009 began to hit the skids and was in serious trouble he warned people. 
    Where are we today? For starters see the astounding national debt.
    If you have a good paying job, do you really understand this exorbitant national debt situation?  Brilliant mathematicians tell it like it is. Part of the economic picture revolves around the unemployment rate and the food stamp numbers.
     Some accountants hope you are too dum to know it.   It is important to discern the difference on how one treats the true numbers.  According to Catherine Austin Fitts, while 39 million people are on food stamps, an unbelievable 300%+ is being spent to assist Wall Street over what is being spent to help those on the food stamp program.   And, that was before COVID-19 hit.  She related this on Coast To Coast AM to George Noory.  All these economic items and corollaries are also included in Alert: For The Times, Book of Secrets.  

    The recent government statisticians lately announced the unemplyment rate fell to 6.7%.   [At one time before that CORONA hit, many mathematicians said it really was around 11.5% or above.]  The numbers are significantly higher than just 6.7% in 2020 and how close it will approach the unemployment rate of the 1930s Great Depression is still up for grabs. [Early 2022, it is stated it went below 4%, which is great news.]
    Times were terrible during the Great Depression.   Bread lines were rampant.   It was very sad when many people were at the start out of a job.   A Bing Crosby song from the 1930s:

      What did Maj. Dames have to say about COVID-19?  

      The virus aka COVID-19 has been either a massive, violent scourge to many or an instrument of mass-hysteria that does not warrant that much criteria of danger.  

       It is more than painful affliction.  

       It brings death;  it is a killer and will be marked by history as a potent cultural event, a bringer of sorrow and death that knew no class, race, distinction-- like war, and one of Maj. Dames' earliest prognostications on COVID-19 was treated by him as a series of warnings, that to some was akin to mere fear mongering and was more bent along hyper-media baloney.    When it was just beginning to run its dreadful course in late Spring of 2020, his spoken words can be encapsulated here.  

       It was going to bring a changed environment, he stated, in more ways than was imaginable.  Moreover, on Dec. 26, 2020 Maj. Dames issued the following on COVID-19.  This is not an imagination situation. Remote viewers foresaw this not just a few years ago, but decades ago; stating even that this pandemic will make science-fiction movies look like kindergarten shows.  

        Much more is elaborated in the informative digital book.  In 2020, as early as March 17 when he appeared on Coast To Coast AM with George Noory, he began to speak out loudly about it.    Suffice to say, this corona virus attacks weak immune systems, and takes advantage of the weak.  Major Dames spoke about martial law, and lime pits, the importance of vitamins A and D, oil of oregano, further economic consequences, and said in March that it could be nine months before this particular pandemic peaks.  This brief link has biographical information.  He explained in this interview (3-17-2020) what the kill shot is, which is covered in minutest detail in the digital book.  He has been predicting it over many years along with the disturbances of the Sun, the global economic collapse and Fukushima.

     From the author: Since I love trains, I could not pass this up.  This RR bridge is Europe’s longest bridge.  I have been privileged to have met such persons as Major Dames, Gordon-Michael Scallion, Sean Morton, Dannion Brinkley and Rev. Andrew Wingate.   Science alone cannot give you all the answers.   However, I have also learned it would be foolish to subtract science from our lives.   With the exception of the Bible, there is no official document telling us what to expect in our future.  But, the following to me is disturbing.  It is not about past history, it is about a new chapter in world history that is getting creepy and that has hit the limelight that warrants mention.  Enclosing snippets from our current and influential news media.

A Narrative of a mere two Springs ago

Biden of the United States said, "freedom will always triumph over tyranny."   War Front Ukraine Mar. 2: Russian forces stalled 17 miles from capital city Kjiv.  Mar. 2: From ABC News World Tonight With David Muir  inside KJIV Children's Hospital, one  of the largest children's hospitals in Europe, Ian Pannel foreign correspondent "medics and staff now risk their own lives to care for more than 190 desperately sick kids here... some of whom are on chemotherapy and...like little Yarig, who has fluid in his brain."   Mar. 2: From NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt, a new organization called  KLEPTOCAPTURE is to target the rich in Russia in ways never seen in the history of the world, Kierce Simmons foreign correspondent said, "And, just today, another high profile Russian businessman, Roman Abramovich, worth an estimated $13 billion, announcing he is selling Chelsea soccer club and he is advocating for peace talks with Ukraine....Oleg Deripaska, worth $4 billion, and once called Putin's favorite industrialist, declared last week, 'Peace is very important.'   Mikhail Fridman, owner of one  of Russia's biggest banks (with a net worth of $11.4 billion) told his London investors, that war is a tragedy.  But, none criticized Putin directly."  Rail lines to southern port of Mariupol have been cut.  March 3: Russian govt compares Western media reports as a Hollywood make-believe.  I predict Putin acts on 1 more set of peace talks.  A green corridor of evacuation of women and children is being negotiated in Kherson between Russian commander and city officials thanks to an American civil engineer Don Flett over there. No cruise missile, which is great against jets and helicopter gunships, can theoretically be used well against Russian mobile launchers. However, Javelins and hand-held RPG types r effective, which require someone to get close to the enemy.  What is showing to be effective are drones which are guided in on a target. Effective now in open country.  However, once the fighting enters apartment and tall edifice environments, that answer is to be determined.  This reminds me of the early months up to April 1942—albeit in jungles-the battles of Bataan where US and Filipino troops held on bravely, and at first even held the Japanese in check in their advance. Yes, despite what you may have read about the Fall of the Philippines, General Homma and his 150,000 plus troops were facing horrid casualties in particular by the Philippine Scouts and regulars before all of the Philippines fell—and MacArthur escaped.    A catastrophe is averted March 4 at Zaporizhya when a nuclear training building catches fire from Russian shelling but it is outside the perimeter of Europe's largest nuclear power plant, source BBC.  From Channel 4 News despicable war.

Across the board, egregious censorship was imposed on Russian people Mar. 4:  Govt. became fearful of the build-up of civilian attacks and the unfolding humanitarian crisis reporting by both Russian and non-Russians.  Their fear of the world news media instituted penalties of up to 15 years prison in Russia for any journalist and anyone that tells the truth about what is ensuing in Ukraine.  The range extended to Facebook, Twitter, and any social media outlet, especially those using "war" or "invasion" and that show images of people protesting or running away.  This fear according to Putin are "fake news".   BBC, CBS, ABC,  Russian television RAVE, Radio Free Europe, Bloomberg, Echo of Moscow radio (Echo Moskvy), Dozhd (Rain), Sky News, CNN, and NBC desist all transmissions from Russia.   March 4: Monster protest in Prague, Czechoslovakia, courtesy of Guardian News.

Hollywood Where Are You?

You got people in need. Once upon a time, you had production power, as Jimmy Stewart, Tyrone Power, Bette Davis of WW II fame.  Where are our directors and the muscle of the Hollywood of today?  I wonder when Hollywood will have the brains and guts to do a Hollywood movie on this invasion and the occupation? 

Remember David Hasselhoff of Knight Rider?  He sang a song in the period when the Berlin Wall fell—it is now 33 not 20 yrs— called Looking For Freedom. (Courtesy of Andre Rieu). Those at our famed Broadway, you are needed as much as Hollywood.  FREEDOM is at stake, or are you waiting for more to die and see freedom rot?   Don’t linger by the sidewalk.  You have astounding muscle, it is high time to rise.  We do not need to go to war, this is a unique time in history. 

Come on, man make some history

. . .Remember the new call word below?  Nice, but what is needed: more help and muscle. 

 

Fight them in the Banks

If You Can't Fight them with Tanks 

The war of today:  How utterly fantastic, when in WW II, the  Allied fighting men would cheer when they took down a Nazi plane,

 AND NOW. . .

Who?  Are acting like the Nazis cloaked under the 2022 word "Special Operation.”

This is not an invasion, it is only “a special operation” it is claimed.  Evidence of a special operation. An invasion is an invasion no matter what you want to call it.  An orange is an orange no matter what you want to call it. Back in the 1980s people were looking for freedom and it may be nostalgic to remember 1989, the song of looking for freedom.   Probably the last transmission from France 24 inside Russia.  Final broadcast of a Moscow source that told the truth—and the state of war inside Russia, courtesy of CNN March 6.  Director and anchor, Ekaterina Kotrikadze interviewed by CNN's Fareed Zakaria.  ABC News Eeeking out a way to live, Mar. 6.  BBC (7.42 mins) March 6 including the lousy deal that AFTER Russian forces gave a green light for the old and children to evacuate Mariupol, they then NIX.

Systemic shocking news from Mariupol: Russian warships fire broadsides plus Russia has committed thermobaric rockets into the entrapped city.  March 22, 2022: The best opportunity for world peace is now: if this Fri.  a papal declaration of a ceremony called a consecration occurs as requested. 105 years ago, Our Lady of Fatima made a promise to humanity, that Heaven, meaning God, would grant this planet an era of world peace.  She never said only for Holy Joe Catholics, or old people of faith; she meant everybody of the whole human race.   The ball started rolling early March when several Ukrainian bishops begged the Pope for a consecration of Russia, as our Lady requested.   [Previous Popes in 1942, 1952, 1964, 1981, 1984, 2000 and 2013 had done a consecration each his own way, but never following her request to the exact letter. Hence the savagery of war continues.]  Be you Christian or not, would it not be GREAT if the terrible war in Ukraine would stop?  

80 years ago, and prior to that, the Blessed Lady forewarned about a future seeing an annihilation of nations.  Every time the Blessed Lady has spoken, she uses words that are exact and has never minced words.  The balance of war lies on the tipping scales of accuracy.

(source The N Y Times).  Poland expels 45 Russians for carrying out espionage.  This is the largest expulsion of spy agents in Europe since 1983, when 147 Soviet intelligence officers had been caught and ousted in Europe.  Russian Ambassador stated in the UN that the West paints a 1-dimension of the conflict, and called the Western countries as "pawns in a geopolitical game" against Russia. A Russian supply ship carrying armored vehicles near port of Mariupol is struck by anti-Russian forces, details unclear.  U.S. troops participate in joint military defensive exercises with NATO troops in Poland. Ukraine claims 6 Russian generals have been killed since start of war.  People are hopeful the Kremlin does not engage in chemical warfare.  (Chemical warfare occurred in WW I but not in WW II.)  Pres.

April 2: As N. Russian forces are retreating from Kiev sectors, redeploying to the S. and Donbas, larger scale Moscow operations in the south intensified.  Many areas around Kyiv are horribly bombed but freed of Russian occupiers; dead bodies liter the streets.  Some 30 km from Ukraine border, Russian fuel depot which was bombed yesterday by attack helicopters confirmed.  Ukrainian troops first time down enemy chopper using a British Starstreak missile traveling at 3x speed of sound ie. at least 2,300 mph fired by shoulder.  Ukrainian troops capture a key airfield 6 miles W. of Kyiv.  German Defense Ministry approved shipment of 58 PbV-501 light tanks from 1990s via Sweden, Czech Republic on their way to Ukraine; it must be remembered, however many of the Russian armored casualties are light tanks.  Puma drones, night vision goggles, laser guided missiles, kamikaze-drones, armored vehicles, anti-drone systems, and ammo are on their way in delivery from the West to Ukraine; in the area of delivery, rescue buses, negotiated by International Red Cross, still not allowed through Russian checkpoints but 2 supply trucks were looted by Russian troops in outskirts of Mariupol.  News leak: the Russian Federation Civil Aviation Administration was hacked last week, (Rosaviatsia HQ in Moscow) in charge of all civil aviation in Russia; it is believed 65 terabytes of data was erased.  Apr. 5: Over 400 bodies counted in northern suburbs of Kyiv; survivors tell of massacres and rapes of Ukraine civilians; yesterday the reports said 300 bodies discovered. Apr 6: Assets of Russia’s largest two banks frozen.  A convoy of Red Cross buses finally allowed to reach and evacuate about 1,000 from Mariupol, but it is too late for 5,000 civilians killed in huge port-city since the invasion, 210 were children, 50 were burned to death in a hospital.  Mayor of Mariupol declares Russians using mobile crematoriums to cover their tracks.  In reaction to the nasty atrocities perpetuated on defenseless civilians that were newly discovered further N., the U.S. announced tougher penalties against Russian bankers, more sanctions on Kremlin officials and families and sanctions on Putin’s daughters.  Mariupol still has pockets of resistance; while to the Northeast 5 civilians were killed by artillery fire in the Donbas-Donetsk region: Apr. 7.  Car after car fleeing westward from Donbas-Donetsk.  Every hospital and medical clinic has been destroyed in Luhansk.   4,676 civilians were evacuated by evacuation corridors, 1,205 from Mariupol.  Another column of 9 buses heading back to Mariupol.  Russia is secretly targeting Facebook accounts of Ukrainian soldiers.  CNN report: U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Miley expects the war in Ukraine to "be a long slog." France and Italy have delivered the latest version of “Milan” to Ukraine fighters.  Antitank Milan handheld mini-rocket launchers are portable, easily stationed on a tripod, built by MBDA of France, and using an infrared lamp pinpoints a target for close combat.  The mini-rockets cannot be affected by radio jamming, flares or aluminum, and is more powerful than standard bazookas or rpg’s as it is claimed can penetrate 1,000 mm armor at 3000 m (3,280 yards). The newest version is said can have a range of 3 km.   U.S. Senate called for revival of Lend-Lease, and Senators quickly rallied passing the WW II-era program; it now goes to the House of Representatives.  (Under that Lend-Lease program, the following WW II  stats should not be long-lost: 750 tanks, 800 aircraft and 1,400 vehicles had been delivered from America under Lend-Lease, not to those beleaguered fighting on Bataan, but to the isolated, undersupplied troops in Russia from midsummer of 1941-early '42—along  with 100,000 tons of supplies that never reached MacArthur and Wainwright—that is exactly 8 decades ago, 1942-2022 that helped a Soviet Union successfully defend their homeland, and in 2022, how are the Russians repaying us?  The above statistics were deemed extremely vital when the Soviet Union was against the wall with limited resources in the period mid-1941 to early 1942 as stated in this author’s recounting of WW II!  They are all researched facts as the fighting went on simultaneously in the Philippines and Russia, eighty years ago to the date.)  UN General Assembly suspends Russian participation from UN Human Rights Council.  German Foreign Intelligence stated last night they have intercepted recent radio communications catching Russian officers talking about shooting civilians.   Apr. 15 Good Friday: it is confirmed, the Russian cruiser Moskva, 3rd largest vessel and flagship, after being hit by Ukrainian Neptune missiles Apr 13, sinks and rests at the bottom of the Black Sea; it possessed 16 anti-missile firing capabilities, each w/1 ton of high explosives (8 to a side) none encased behind protective heavy steel; death of captain unconfirmed.  Day 55, a day after Easter, Gen. Dvornikov increases air strikes on central and NW Ukraine as a military diversion to capturing Mariupol.  Western journalists largely fall for it as 315 target-sites all over an overcast and cloudy Ukraine hit by air missiles and long-range artillery. Beautiful, art-city of Lviv, which had largely escaped attacks until now, as snow lightly falls, is struck by missiles, 7 killed, one is a child.  Mykolaiv, near the port city of Odesa, did not escape, hit under Dvornikov’s new southern attack campaign. 4.98 million people have been forced to flee to neighboring nations to seek refuge since the start of the war, according to the UN.  The last of Ukraine’s fighters in Mariupol are cornered in a tiny part of a large steel factory complex with underground tunnels, with prospects of being re-supplied zero, ammunition  virtually gone. The city of Mariupol is so shattered, Dmytro Kuleba, Foreign Minister of Ukraine, said, “The city doesn’t exist anymore,” April 18.  Over 900 cadavers counted in n. suburbs of Kyiv.  Estimated number of people killed in Mariupol: 2,000-5,000.  April 19: No western navies in the Sea of Azov or Black Sea.  Some fighter jets given to Ukraine to defend itself.  In past 24 hours, a total of 1,260 targets were struck by artillery and missiles; the eastern city of Kreminna has fallen (1st city to be captured by Gen. Dvornikov, the butcher of Aleppo) and CNN reported a first big shipment (of 7 minimum) were offload off airplanes and loaded for transport to the war theater in Ukraine (via rail), they constitute the $800 million dollar aid package from America—18 Howitzers, 11 Mi-17 choppers, 300 Switchblade drones and various protective equipment, like the first of 30,000 sets of body armor and helmets.  CNN also reports at least 500 Javelins, 200 M113 armored personnel carriers plus 10 counter-artillery radar sets will follow.  Rem? I told you about the rail route through the Kjiv Pass and the journey beyond?  Question: Do rail lines extend beyond Lviv?  Also, a lot were stuck at Lviv, including medical equipment.  Something new under the sun, Apr. 19, T-minus 19 days before May 9th, Russian foreign minister Lavrov provides a hint of specifics that his country will not use nuclear weapons, and that Moscow would only use “conventional” munitions. He also, reconfirmed the establishment of separate Donetsk and Luhansk republics. The Donbas possesses rich coal reserves with wonderful coal mining.  The dirty trick is this, talk about new republics while at the same time create a separate Southern zone to the Russian-annexed Crimean peninsula, capture the city of Kherson, important as it is key to the freshwaters canals to Crimea, and destroy Ukraine’s best armed forces, which are fighting in the S. and E.   Crush and eliminate Ukraine’s best armed forces and elimination of the trading hubs of Mariupol and Odesa for Ukraine—those were strategic keys of the Russian “special operation”.  Simple ABC.  UN Sec-General Antonio Guterres appeals to Russia for a cease fire in Ukraine, starting Thurs. to coincide with Orthodox Christians’ Holy Week observances. April 24: Orthodox Easter.  May 1: Intense fighting in S.E. Ukraine continues but a new Red Cross-UN evacuation of civilians from besieged Mariupol sees new daylight—the Red Cross buses are not stopped as they head to Zaporizhzhia, 140 miles from Mariupol.  Putin and his special-temporary-draftees plan was to end late Spring of 2022, unless they re-enlist. So what could Putin be cooking?  If he calls it a "war," draftees cannot quit anymore  And, he still would have his army, tricky world.  Putin is getting desperate.  MAY 9 came and went and the "occupation" is still not called all-out-war.  3 Min video with music.  How long will it take Hollywood to make a movie out of all this?, from the common people's perspective, maybe both sides. After you see the 3 min video, find a way to play it again while you read the following, it adds pep to history.

Summer-autumn-winter of 2022: lousy military stalemate.

From the beginning of the conflict Feb. of 2022 to Jan. 28, 2023, the Russian forces have lost 125,500 troops and of these 9 were Russian generals, including Major Gen. Andrei Simonov, Chief of the Electronic Warfare Troops of the Russian 2nd Army, 300 war jets, 300 helicopters, over 700 cruise missiles, 250 air defense systems. 6,400 armored vehicles, 20 military ships and boats, and over 3,100 tanks.  Ukrainian forces have lost over 10,000 troops (lowest est), 3,189 tanks, 6,300 armored vehicles, 293 war jets, 285 helicopters, 221 air defense systems plus over 40,000 unarmed civilians.  Between 15 to 30 million people are refugees, estimates vary. Drones and other system losses, and casualty rates, boggle the mind as they are also high.  Both Russia and Ukraine jealously guard their casualty numbers.

The Battle of Donbas, Winter.

Dateline Jan. 25, 2023: United States will send 31 Abram battle tanks and Germany will send 14 Leopard 2 A6 battle tanks to Ukraine, however, it will take months for full arrival--in anticipation of President Putin's claim to do a new Spring offensive on Ukraine.  In addition to the tanks, they will be provided 55 mine-resistant ambush protected vehicles, 100 M113 armored personal carriers, logistics, ammunition and training on using the tanks and their critical maintenance.  The U.S. has already sent in some Bradley Fighting armored vehicles, which are superior in speed.  CBS report.  An M1 Abrams can hit a speed at 30  while the Bradley can attain a top speed of 40 mph, but it is less protected.  The Leopards can hit 43 mph, but the Leopard 2 A6 is not Germany's best.  The best, most advanced is the A7.  There is the highly secretive role of AI in this war few know about but real information is sparse.  (If Putin has enough trained reserves and conscripts, he will not wait for the first day of official Spring.  My military guess will be the Crimea sector but early indications on Feb. 13 indicate early targets are the areas around Bakhmut.  NBC report Feb. 13.  Same date ITV News also great footage; both sides suffering terribly.  Heaviest battles are in the East.  If I were the military Chiefs of Staff of Ukraine, I would strike first with the civilian Resistance and AI (if true) to disrupt big-time Putins' Spring Offensive, if they have munitions. Two behind-the-scenes stories of the President of Ukraine,  Hiroshima wrap-up (7mins) and a nasty surprise on the stage of Rome-Ukraine relations when the President met in Rome the Vicar of Christ Pope Francis and gave him an icon painting, the cool publicized view, and the not so cool view. . .  is this gift from the Pres. disrespectful?, the image of Jesus Christ is totally wiped out in black, as if baby Jesus does not exist.  Is this a hidden message from President Zelensky, a Jew?

   Sneaky Aid from Holland; every little bit counts. 

   Banzai Japan.

   This author predicts Bakhmut (it is not a sprawling port city like Mariupol) will fall, but it will be determined if Ukraine can make a strategic withdrawal and get its troops out or, hold on...latest major news, May 25: Wagner troops pulling out of Bakhmut.  May 26, 2023  another civilian structure, a hospital, is hit in Dnipro by Russia, courtesy of DW News. Nothing official has been released from either Russian or Ukraine sources on casualty figures in the  Bakhmut sector, but all sources indicate as of Jun 9, Russia has suffered 100,000 casualties in Bakhmut, including over 20,000 dead. Dead of Ukraine in Bakhmut 20,000 to 50,000 with total casualty figures in the same vicinity.  From eastern Siberia, Russian forces so desperate, they moving  up old 60-year old tanks.

    It is highly unlikely the latest news of ABG tank shipments (America-British-German) will arrive on time for a Spring offensive.  Will the West see the ABG aid of Jan-Feb 2023 become a repeat of the ABDA military aid to the western Allies of Feb. 1942 in the Pacific? when the WWII world saw the Allies defeated and fall all over the Pacific when Imperial Japan took control, exactly 80 years ago--eventually too little too late!

    How and what will the largest war on the European continent since WW II still bring?

    Polish residents welcome a U.S. Stryker Armored Vehicle convoy.  

    Is the beat of a  lousy stalemate over?  First, the good news from the standpoint of Ukraine, early June Ukrainian troops on the big push even having a Russian train with secret ballistic missiles blown. Large Russian military HQ hit by US made HIMARS in Melitopol, courtesy of Eagle Eye.  Now the bad news Loose Lips sinks ships.  In other words, don't expect real time combat news from the Front, courtesy of CNN.  What prey tell can break the stalemate?  Probably, Air Force units. I will say that over and over, you need a tough, well trained Air Force because you are not fighting hidden enemies in the jungles. But from where? You need bases and they have to be well hidden.  Those suckers are finally arriving.​  The rumble of involvement by a free people. Ukrainian people either get good news or great news before July 4. AH is it a war game?

However, beware of El Nino which can muck things up in Europe.

What gives May 8-9?

Was or is there a Phony War?

 

   The following paragraphs were kept as a form of posterity and in the hope some semblance of prayer for peace brings the war in Europe to an end.  It was written before the invasion began.   If only international conflagrations were like international sports competition.  There would be battling, victors, loosers, broadcast rights leading to a succession of knock-outs but with little real bloodshed and deaths.  There would be tears, jeers, surprising finishes, and hard work, but, out of all that, is an eventual champion.  It’s been 4 years that in Ukraine there was big talk not to broadcast the World Cup from Sochi, Russia, however, the Ukrainian state TV did broadcast the soccer matches.  Russia received wide-spread praise as World Cup hosts to those summer games that became the most viewed World Cup ever, and the most viewed TV broadcast—surpassing the Beijing Summer Olympics of 2008.

    The hot-shot video game giant Electronic Arts added an expansion to their video FIFA World Cup electronic game, but Britain’s Foreign Office warned English fans of Asian or Afro ancestry of “racist, homophobic, and anti-British hostility” however, in the end it never materialized for English fans were extended a warm welcome from ordinary citizens of Russia.  Where once many Russians and Germans fought in WW II in Volgograd to the death (formerly Tsaritsyn aka Stalingrad til 1961) is a beautiful stadium, the Volgograd Arena with 42 elevators.

    And, after 158 goals scored in overall 61 matches in Russia, our world saw France and Croatia face off for the championship, while England and Belgium fought for 3rd place. 

    There were no deaths and coffins, no loss of life, as after the Sochi World Cup ended, the world saw France defeat Croatia 4-2.

    Does Russia want to start a world war after their fabulous sporting event of 2018?  Did Japan make money after their international event last year?  I don’t know, but they made a lot of friends, and the hands of peace were shaken.  

    Let us hope Spring of 2022 does not wind up like 1940, after the Olympics of 1936.  There was talk of friendship at first.  Then, boom 4 years later, what did the world see?

 

    Early Feb. 2022, the world was witnessing military mobilization along Eastern Europe in ways not seen in many a decade, in Ukraine, the bread basket of Europe.  This time the two biggest kids on the block, Russia and the United States, are shouting and flexing their muscles in the hope of being “some champ” in a sequence of events along Ukraine very loud early 2022, with everybody calling each other names and blaming the other as the cause of everything.  

     I hope the situation in Ukraine does not turn into a boiling pot ready to explode.  And, that leaders of the West and Russia simmer down as opposed to letting it boil out of hand . . .day by day.  Major Dames was on the air with George Noory on Jan. 25, 2022 where he expressed what he thought would happen.  Despite being embroiled in Technical Remote Activities—notably finding missing children—he was a guest on Coast To Coast, and by way of radio said several things during the 2 hour interview program.  He mentioned a zoom review for March 5, 2022, talked about internment camps in Australia, and a pyramid-shaped UFO picture taken by the U.S. Navy.  In the arena of global terrorism, Dames said American banks would issue new currency after a bank holiday as a result of an internet outage of gross proportions.  Not using TRV, he explained in brief when the banks come back up, the Federal  Reserve will create a central bank digital currency to keep up with the Chinese.  And, “commercial banks will start dropping off slowly.”

    He was obliged to give his views on the problem in Ukraine.  Despite some 120,000 Russian troops amassed along the borders of Ukraine, he believed Putin would not invade Ukraine. That was his opinion not from TRV.  He believed things will calm down, and that Russia will not attack the Ukrainian people but, Russia will show it's muscle. But, in this author's opinion, if the Western media speak and berate about Putin's insecurities Putin will not be afraid to show external aggression to show he is no weak ruler.  For the record, the Baltic states all border Russia.  Moreover, since March of 2004, they’ve been in defense mode—and, like to be free— but not once have they—with or without NATO—ever invaded Russia.  That is a stretch of almost 20 years we’re talking about.  We leave you with this thought, an historical morceau, from The Economist Feb. 9, 2022. 

oAddendum:   Why can't we all get along and not go to war?  It is the young who come back injured with no legs or arms not the fat cats in their air-conditioned offices.  What happened in Red Square when everybody knew this song worldwide, even in Red Square by the Beatles . . . meaning peace.

 

 

      Thirty years ago, the topics of Garabandal, which occured at the height of the Cold War--from the 1960s--and Fatima, which is from 1917, were not favorites of mine.   In early 1996, I never had heard of Rev. Malachi Martin, Rev. Andrew Wingate—both whom could discern things the ordinary person cannot—and I knew little about Art Bell, Linda Howe, George Noory, or Major Edward A. Dames.  

     As humanity faces dramatic changes, one of the most intimating is the drama of 2022, namely the Russia-Ukrainian crisis where the question on many minds is "How far will Russia go?"   The intricacies that will affect millions of people is a problem of unsurmountable crisis.  Years ago, the Lady of Fatima warned the world of dangers that would someday stem from the errors of Russia.  Antecedent to 2022, you found scores of people tying in Fatima to something that belonged to old, past days.  Alright, to peer into those past days, under the menu go to Fatima, and find the PDF called Keypoints.   You will get a taste of a world gone by, especially the 1950s and 1960s, the height of the Cold War, and also see what happened when people prayed in the 1950s regarding Austria.  Believe what you want.  The information is not invented.  The special PDF is near the bottom of our Fatima web page.   Tip: find pic of Mel Gibson at bottom. 

     Please note, our digital book has more information than is presented here.  

     To put it into perspective and very bluntly, what is documented in the book is an astounding translation of humankind’s future, that defies explanation.   While Alert: For The Times is composed of many years of research, and discloses fading secrets, it does not claim to tell you the future.  The ordinary person in the street knows little about the techniques of the skill of remote viewing, as seen in this contemporary social posting in video format, including social posts by people who are not aware about historical events, but do mention their opinions including their inaccuracies that Dames has never been right.  This modem of opinion is not 100% accurate.
     Think back in history to what we have related.  It involves patterns of history and not opinions.
 

     We know there are many of the opinion TRV is a hypothesis or who think it may not work. But, you can be the deciding factor once you read the spellbinding new ebook.
