Rabobank now links your spending to carbon emissions
Since Friday, Rabobank customers can see how much CO2 they emit based on their spending in the bank’s app.
[IAF: If spending == carbon, a zero carbon policy implies zero economic activity.
This is the “true cost accounting” that the Rockefeller Foundation describes, whereby the technocrats can skew real ‘value’ in any direction they want to achieve the goals of their agenda.]

Russian 'victory' in Ukraine 'possible' – UK PM
Boris Johnson admits that Western support may not lead to success for Kiev
There is a “realistic possibility” that Russian forces could “win” in Ukraine and that the conflict, in the eastern European state, could last for a “long period,” British Prime Minister Boris Johnson conceded on Friday.
During a press conference in New Delhi, a British reporter asked Johnson if he agrees with the Western intelligence assessment that the military action in Ukraine could continue till the end of 2023 and end in victory for Russia. The British prime minister conceded that both these statements might turn out to be true.
Weighing on Russia’s chances of ‘winning,’ Johnson said: “I think the sad thing is that is a realistic possibility, of course.”
Saying that Vladimir Putin “has a huge army,” the prime minister claimed that the Russian president “has a very difficult political position because he has made a catastrophic blunder.” He didn’t specify what he meant by “blunder” but he was presumably referring to the military attack on Ukraine.
In Johnson’s opinion, Putin now has only one option: “to continue to try to use his appalling grinding approach, led by artillery, trying to grind the Ukrainians down.”
Pointing out that Russian forces are now “very close to securing a land bridge in Mariupol,” Johnson stressed that the situation “is unpredictable at this stage.”
The prime minister noted, however, that the Ukrainians are demonstrating “incredible heroism” and such a “willingness to fight” that their spirit cannot be conquered, even if the conflict lasts for a long time.
Earlier this month Johnson visited Kiev for talks with the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, following a promise to provide Ukraine with £100m worth of weapons.
“And I think no matter what the military superiority Putin may be able to bring to bear in the next few months – and I agree it could be a long period, he will not be able to conquer the spirit of the Ukrainian people. This is just an observable fact,” Johnson said.
On Thursday, unnamed western officials told journalists that “even if Putin were able to secure a respectable set of objectives inside Ukraine it’s very hard to see how Russia will have succeeded strategically as a result of this intervention.” In the officials’ opinion, Russian authorities’ actions “united opposition” and have already led to “significant changes in European security architecture” which is “very much contrary to Russia’s strategic interests.” That point of view prompted intelligence representatives to call Russia’s attack on Ukraine a “strategic blunder.”
Russian officials, meanwhile, insist that the military operation is going “according to plan.”
“Of course, the Commander-in-Chief not only receives daily, but hourly reports from the military, and from the Minister of Defense, the Chief of the General Staff, he receives information, clarifications on how the special military operation is being carried out,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists on Thursday, apparently refuting numerous claims by Western intelligence that Putin has allegedly been misinformed by his advisers about the situation on the ground as well as of the consequences of sanctions for the Russian economy.
Russia attacked its neighbor following Ukraine’s failure to implement the terms of the Minsk agreements, signed in 2014, and Moscow’s eventual recognition of the Donbass republics of Donetsk and Lugansk. The German and French brokered Minsk Protocol was designed to give the breakaway regions special status within the Ukrainian state.
The Kremlin has since demanded that Ukraine officially declare itself a neutral country that will never join the US-led NATO military bloc. Kiev insists the Russian offensive was completely unprovoked and has denied claims it was planning to retake the two republics by force.

Someone just asked us "how's this looking two years later?"
I'd say it's 100% withstood the test of time. As has all our work on the fake '#COVID19' "pandemic".
If anything we were giving too much benefit of too much doubt to an official narrative now TOTALLY discredited.

"Let’s have a little reality check on Emmanuel Macron, shall we?
He is an ex-employee of the Rothschild investment bank.
In 2016 he announced he was running for President as leader of a political party that was less than a year old.
He had never even run for office of any kind before, let alone won.
Nevertheless, his “movement” stormed over the established political parties and he won the presidency.
This year, despite Covid and lockdowns and eighteen months of yellow vest protests, he’s still expected to win a second term (and he did)
Does any of that really make sense?..."

💢A war which did not need to happen is driving up food and oil prices.
💢Sanctions which did not need to be put in place are also driving up food and oil prices.
💢Western allies are intentionally raising their oil prices.
💢Despite warning of a food crisis, US and UK are paying farmers not to farm.
💢A “bird flu epidemic” very much like the fake Covid “pandemic” is driving up the price of poultry and eggs.
💢Western companies are actively making the fertiliser shortages worse.
💢Bizarre fires are crippling large sections of the US food industry.
💢 you can reason that the chaos on the ground and concomitant increase in food prices is part of a deliberate policy serving the Great Reset agenda.

6 LESSONS FROM THE MASTER OF PROPAGANDA
1. YOU MANIPULATE THE LEADER OF A GROUP, THE PEOPLE WILL FOLLOW
Edward Bernays tells us that one of the easiest ways to influence the thoughts and actions of large numbers of people is to first influence their leader.
If you can influence the leaders, either with or without their conscious cooperation, you automatically influence the group which they sway.
In fact, one of the most firmly established principles of mass psychology is that the “group mind” does not “think”, rather, it acts according to impulses, habits and emotions. And when deciding on a certain course of action, its first impulse is to follow the example of a trusted leader.
