Pittsburgh Shooting Hoax Pittsburgh Shooting Hoax by Miles Mathis First published October 27, 2018 Just my opinion as usual, come to by compiling mainstream evidence freely available on the internet. My readers are already intuiting this was a fake, and of course they are correct. It couldn't be much more obvious, though I am sure it will get even more obvious as more information is released. We have seen that some in Government and the Jewish communities love nothing better than pretending to attack themselves. It has proved to be a fantastic way to generate sympathy. or it was in the past. I think a lot of people are starting to see through it, which is why the governors and families have had to turn up the volume. Average people yawn and change the channel, so they have to televise fakes on every channel, sometimes at a rate of two or three a week. Pretty soon they will have to hire people to come directly to your house and lecture you on these topics, to make sure you are properly propagandized. You will have to pass a test at the end. Some will say, “Why would you just assume this one is fake, without even studying it in full?” A better question for them is “why wouldn't I?” I have proven that every previous similar story was a fake, so the chances this one is real are vanishing. I have never studied a promoted tragedy like this and found it to be genuine. NEVER. I have shown they are run by the same people for pretty much the same reasons, and always have been. So when a new one comes along, it isn't hard to spot. And here again, we have the bald numerology, with aces and eights all over the place. Eleven people were killed, and it was done during brit milah, which is circumcision done on 8-day-old boys. They make sure to tell you that in the reports, in case you don't know it. We are even told the seating capacity of the synagogue's main sanctuary, although I don't know what that has to do with anything. Is that crucial information here? We are told the number because it is 1250, which adds to. eight. The synagogue was built in 1946, and the suspect is 46. 1946 is year one of the old CIA. The suspect Bowers is sure to talk a lot about his Glock 33. Bowers posted a webpage 17 days before the event. 1+7=8. Although he has been posting threatening comments about Jews for weeks—including pictures of his guns—supposedly law enforcement including FBI had never heard of him. This despite the fact that online chats are known to be monitored for just this purpose. Many of them were created just for that. At USAToday, I see they are already having a candlelight vigil. Didn't this just happen a few hours ago? How can you organize a candlelight vigil so fast? I happen to be older than 10, so I remember that candlelight vigils used to take several days to organize. They were scheduled to coincide with burials. But now they schedule them on the same day? Why? Just for TV, of course. Besides, there will be no real burials, since they have no real bodies. So they might as well run the candlelight vigil on the same day. It is just lucky they didn't mix up their dates and run the candlelight vigil yesterday. Although we see footage of hundreds of SWAT team members who look like they are outfitted for war, somehow no one managed to shoot this guy? Was he wearing Ironman armor, or what? We are told Bowers was taken into custody within 20 minutes of the 911 call. That is blisteringly fast, especially since we are told he barricaded himself inside. Well, if he was taken into custody so fast, why were the streets of Pittsburgh brimming with SWAT teams and paramilitary? It couldn't have been to create massive fear, could it? Why were schools shut down and people told to stay indoors? Because of one guy who was taken into custody within 20 minutes? It couldn't have been to create massive fear, could it. I am just surprised they didn't lock down the entire country. We are told Bowers was posting on Gab five minutes before he went on this rampage. Does that sound believable? If you were going to shoot up a synagogue, would you go online five minutes before and post your thoughts? I am just surprised he didn't send out Tweets every five minutes to keep us updated on his progress. USAToday is admitting that active shooter drills had just occurred in Pittsburgh at the Jewish Community Center and nearby schools. These Jewish community drills had been occurring at least back to January of this year, with at least one of them being in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood, site of this event. That is the usual red flag. They are like dress rehearsals for the hoax. This is why reporters in Pittsburgh at first thought the synagogue shooting was a drill. [Added next day: Also, one of the rabbis at the Pittsburgh synagogue, Alvin Berkun, has a son, Jonathan Berkun, who is the rabbi at a synagogue in Aventura, Florida—the same city the fake mail bomber is from. His synagogue participated in a bomb plot psyop in 2016. In addition, Jonathan Berkun's wife Rabbi Lauren Berkun is the director of the Shalom Hartman Institute, a leading center for Jewish advocacy. On its website, we see the Institute includes the Center for Israeli-Jewish Identity, and we are told this Center includes “senior officers in the Israeli Defense Forces”. Which tells us Mossad is probably involved in coordinating these fake events in the US. Given that, we may assume Rabbi David Hartman, the founder of the Institute, likely had ties to Israeli Intelligence back to the 1970s or before. Hartman was an advisor to Zevulun Hammer, Israeli Minister of Education, and also to several Prime Ministers. He was professor at Berkeley in the 1980s—always a red flag. But you can research that more fully if you wish. However, I will remind you of this: we have seen many many times that both churches and synagogues are simply Intel fronts, going back centuries. Rabbis, priests, and other “clerics” are often little more than agents in white robes, pretending to be holy in order to more easily scam you. So having this happen in a synagogue is a red flag by itself, with nothing else said.] [Added November 1, 2018: the youtubers have come back to life on this one (or youtube is failing to block some of them, anyhow), and we find another link there: the Berkuns are buddies with Jewish US Congresswoman from Florida Debbie Wasserman Schultz. With some more digging, I found out some things on my own. Schultz was instrumental in publicizing the fake death of Daniel Wultz. He is the Jewish kid from Florida allegedly killed during the Tel Aviv suicide bombing of 2006—which also never happened. And how many people were allegedly killed there? Eight or eleven, right? Yep, eleven. Wultz allegedly died on Mother's Day, for added effect. Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack, which is a continuation of the joke. Islamic Jihad is just a puppet of Israel, composed of actors. See Ramadan Shalah, who got a PhD in banking at the University of Durham in England. But that isn't suspicious, is it? He is just another crypto-Jew in a turban, pretending to be the enemy. Don't believe me? We also have a link to Florida, since Shalah was a professor of economics at the University of South Florida in Tampa. He left the university in 1995 to lead the Islamic Jihad. You have to laugh. Who buys this stuff? As usual, he has been on most-wanted lists worldwide for two decades, they know where he is, but he remains free to do interviews and make appearances. The media can find him whenever they need to, but worldwide Intel can't.] Trump said some very strange things today in response to this fake shooting. He said the guy should get the death penalty. Isn't it a little early for that? Shouldn't we try him first? No? Just lead him straight to the electric chair, eh? Trump also said this could have been prevented if the synagogue had armed guards. Really? Four armed policemen were allegedly wounded and Bowers wasn't killed, but an old guy with a Colt sitting at the back of the synagogue could have prevented this? I am just surprised Trump didn't suggest body scanners at the doors of all churches and synagogues, but maybe that is tomorrow's script. You know it is coming to that. Trump should just cut to the chase and recommend everyone go out and buy more guns and ammunition, so that he and his buddies who own the gun companies can make more money. I guess the sales were slipping a bit last week, so someone made a few calls and set this event up pronto. [Later Trump continued the strange comments, saying this: The Jews have endured terrible persecution, and you know that we've all read it: We've studied it. They've gone through a lot. And those seeking their destruction—we will seek their destruction. Wow. So I guess we now know what this event is about.

This research addresses this question and tests for the effects of institutional linkages between banks and states on the enforcement of these regulations. It is hypothesized here that a bank’s institutional link to its home state is necessary to block attempted enforcement. This research utilizes comparative studies of cases in which enforcement and penalization were attempted, and examines the role of institutional links between the bank and state in these outcomes. The case comparisons include five cases in all, with three comprising positive cases in which enforcement was blocked, and two in which penalty occurred. Combined, these cases control for rival variables such as rule of law, state capacity, iv authoritarianism, and membership of a country in a regulatory body while also testing for the impact of institutional linkage between a bank and its state in the country’s national political economy.
