British military declares war on vaccine opponents
The British army has chosen to go to "war" against opponents of the upcoming mass vaccinations that are planned. It is the 77th Brigade, the so-called DCSU, or "Defense Cultural Specialist Unit" that will monitor and counter "online propaganda against vaccines".
Published: December 5, 2020, 10:05 am
According to the Sunday Times, vaccine dissidents will be hunted down by pinpointing adversarial physical, virtual and cognitive behaviours. The unit was founded in 2010 and worked with psyops teams in Afghanistan by studying the behaviors and cultural characteristics of the Afghan people and then providing cultural and linguistic advice to the British ground troops, the brigade noted on its own website.
But the department’s work has continued and now focuses on influencing people via social media. Ahead of the planned mass vaccination campaigns that will be launched in the UK, the brigade’s collective experience and capabilities are said to play a major role in counteracting and combating opponents of the vaccines that the authorities want to force the population to take.
According to the newspaper Newsweek, at least one of those in charge on Twitter has direct links to the 77th Brigade. This individual is Gordon MacMillan who started working for Twitter in 2013 and is responsible for the editorial work that Twitter puts out in the Middle East and North Africa. At the same time, he also worked for the 77th Brigade as an “active reservist”, but both Twitter and the British military have played down their cooperation.
Twitter has denied sharing information with intelligence services. The 77th Brigade said in a brief statement to Newsweek: “There is no relationship or agreement between the 77th Brigade and Twitter, other than that we use Twitter as one of many social media platforms for engagement and communication. The army does not comment on the specific activities of reservists working within the division.”
According to the Sunday Times, the brigade is already monitoring the network for Covid-19-related material and analyzing how British citizens are affected by this. The brigade denied that it was actively trying to influence British citizens in a specific direction, instead claiming that it “collects evidence of vaccine information from hostile states, including Russia”.
But the brigade’s activities do not stop at gathering information, but also consist of direct surveillance and countering of “enemy actors”, which in this case includes what is called “militant vaccine opponents”. How vaccine opponents become “militant” seems unclear, however, instead it seems to be about all groups and individuals who are opposed to the vaccines, regardless of whether this comes from conspiracy theories about the dangers of vaccines.
The British authorities will thus soon launch a massive and comprehensive campaign to combat vaccine resistance, which is also large in the UK, where every third Briton – similar figures as in Sweden – is hesitant to take the rapidly evolving vaccines that will soon be available, experience Times. The work of the 77th Brigade will then be to attack and fight vaccine opponents in various ways so that only a positive image of the vaccines will reach the population through various information and misinformation campaigns. Even when one chooses to call vaccine critics and opponents “militants”, one can assume that these campaigns have already begun.
Sweden is also suspected of launching extensive mass vaccination campaigns through several authorities, such as the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) and the National Board of Health and Welfare, during the winter to, just like in the UK, influence people to take the new vaccines.

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.
The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.

Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."
