Indonesia Under Martial Law

 

With the stroke of a pen, President Joko Widodo has nullified Indonesia's Constitution, cancelled all Human Rights and placed the military in charge of enforcing his unilateral dictatorial edict, and all on the eve of the country's 75th anniversary of independence.  They should all be charged with blasphemy and jailed for no loess than two years for denying Divine Providence.  Soeharto was never this bad.

===================================================================

Personal Report:

In the town of Kudus, Central Java (pop. 94,000), a major effort was undertaken to vaccinate the entire town in early June.  In the past week and a half (as of July 1), we have lost two in-laws and two friends, and the problems there have made global news.

My wife's cousin reports that a similar vaccination campaign took place in the town of Jatiwangi, Central Java (pop. 83,000), and nearly the entire town is now sick or dying.  There appears to be a complete blackout on this story.

JIExpo Convention Center in Jakarta has been identified as a potential emergency field hospital and I have seen truck-loads of soldiers coming and going in the past several days.

Though the emergency is being blamed on "Delta Variant," it is clearly related to areas where vaccinations have had the widest distribution.  The primary vaccine being used here is SinoVac, developed by SinoPharm.  AstraZeneca is also being distributed, and much of the supply for this one comes from the EU and Australia, who have stopped using it and are dumping it in the Third World.

The "Delta Variant" seems clearly (to me) to be vaccinosis and not a virus of any kind, much less a variant of SARS-COV-2.
