British army creates team of Facebook warriors

The British army is creating a special force of Facebook warriors, skilled in psychological operations and use of social media to engage in unconventional warfare in the information age.
The 77th Brigade, to be based in Hermitage, near Newbury, in Berkshire, will be about 1,500-strong and formed of units drawn from across the army. It will formally come into being in April.
The brigade will be responsible for what is described as non-lethal warfare. Both the Israeli and US army already engage heavily in psychological operations.
Against a background of 24-hour news, smartphones and social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, the force will attempt to control the narrative.
The 77th will include regulars and reservists and recruitment will begin in the spring. Soldiers with journalism skills and familiarity with social media are among those being sought.
An army spokesman said: “77th Brigade is being created to draw together a host of existing and developing capabilities essential to meet the challenges of modern conflict and warfare. It recognises that the actions of others in a modern battlefield can be affected in ways that are not necessarily violent.”
The move is partly a result of experience in counter-insurgency operations in Afghanistan. It can also be seen as a response to events of the last year that include Russia’s actions in Ukraine, in particular Crimea, and Islamic State’s (Isis) takeover of large swaths of Syria and Iraq.
Nato has so far been unable to find a counter to what the US and UK claim is Russia creating unrest by sending in regular troops disguised as local militia, allowing president Vladimir Putin to deny responsibility.Isis has proved adept at exploiting social media to attract fighters from around the world.
The Israel Defence Forces have pioneered state military engagement with social media, with dedicated teams operating since Operation Cast Lead, its war in Gaza in 2008-9. The IDF is active on 30 platforms – including Twitter, Facebook, Youtube and Instagram – in six languages. “It enables us to engage with an audience we otherwise wouldn’t reach,” said an Israeli army spokesman.
It has been approached by several western countries, keen to learn from its expertise.
During last summer’s war in Gaza, Operation Protective Edge, the IDF and Hamas’s military wing, the Qassam Brigades, tweeted prolifically, sometimes engaging directly with one another.
The new brigade is being named the 77th in tribute to the Chindits, the British guerrilla force led by Maj Gen Orde Wingate against the Japanese in Burma during the second world war. Wingate adopted unorthodox and controversial tactics that achieved successes completely disproportionate to the size of his forces, sending teams deep into Japanese-held territory, creating uncertainty in the Japanese high command and forcing it to alter its strategic plans.
In a nod to the Chindits, members of the 77th Brigade will have arm badges showing a mythical Burmese creature.
The aim is that the new force will prove as flexible as the Chindits in the face of the dizzying array of challenges being thrown up in the early part of this century.
The creation of 77th Brigade comes as the commander of Nato special operations headquarters, Lt Gen Marshall Webb, speaking in Washington this week, expressed concern about Russia and about Isis.
“Special operations headquarters is uniquely placed to address this,” he said. “We tend to take an indirect approach. We can engage without being escalatory or aggressive. We tend to view things from an oblique angle, and we absolutely acknowledge that trust, information-sharing and interagency collaboration is crucial.”
Learn how to protect yourself from cancer-causing microwave radiation

(NaturalNews) It's time to recognize a simple, yet alarming truth. We are all living in a sea of microwave radiation - generated by microwave ovens, cell phones and Wi-Fi 'hot spots'. This exposure represents one of the greatest threats to human health, and the telecommunication industry does NOT want you to know the truth about electromagnetic frequencies. (EMFs)
The stakes are very high. We are seeing an epidemic rise in the rates of autism, chronic fatigue and stress-related diseases like cancer. On the next NaturalNews Talk Hour, Jonathan Landsman and David Carpenter, M.D., an environmental health expert, talk about what you need to know to protect yourself from EMFs.

Why should we care about wireless microwave radiation?
For starters, let's not forget, we (humans) are bioelectrical beings. Our hearts and brains depend on internal bioelectrical signals to function properly. And, whether we like it or not, hundreds of scientific studies now prove that microwave radiation - that comes from cell phones, baby monitors plus other wireless mobile devices - significantly disturb cellular functions.
In just the last decade or so, the United States has seen cell phone towers expand from just 36,000 to over 260,000 - with no end in sight. These towers are being placed near schools and healthcare facilities - placing our children (and the elderly) at even greater risk of sickness and premature death. It's no wonder why we see the direct correlation between the use of microwave radiation technologies and the growth of autism, Alzheimer's disease, and a variety of other autoimmune conditions.
To be blunt, there is a biochemical reason why so many people are suffering with irregular heartbeats, sleep disorders, memory problems, increased anxiety levels and brain fog. In addition, we are seeing a dramatic increase in reproductive problems, brain cancer and learning disabilities in children. On the next NaturalNews Talk Hour, Jonathan Landsman and Dr. Carpenter will talk about how to stop this madness.

The ugly truth about cell phone technology
Cell phone manufacturers would have you believe that the 'low level' microwave radiation produced by your cell phone is 'perfectly safe'. But, Dr. Barrie Trower, a retired British military intelligence scientist, has a very different opinion.
According to Dr. Trower, during the Cold War of the 1950s and 1960s, low-level microwave radiation was used as a stealth weapon - by the Russians - toward the American embassy, giving embassy employees (and their family members) breast cancer and leukemia. In addition, microwaves were the perfect stealth weapon to be used on dissident groups around the world - because it changed their mental outlook on life and gave them cancer, without them even knowing it.
Experts warn about the dangers of cell phone technology:
"The greatest polluting element in the earth's environment is the proliferation of electromagnetic fields. I consider that to be a far greater threat on a global scale than warming, or the increase of chemical elements in the environment." - Dr. Robert O. Becker, M.D., author of "The Body Electric"
"People exposed to cell tower signals experience dizziness, nervousness, chest pain, shortness of breath, numbness and tingling, weakness, and difficulty concentrating." - Dutch Government report
"Humans who live within 4 km of a broadcast antenna experience behavioral disorders, cognitive dysfunction, and adverse health effects including leukemia, diabetes, and psychoses." - Magda Havas, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Environmental & Resource Studies at Trent University
"The extrapolated trend indicates that 50% of the population can be expected to become electro-sensitive by the year 2017." - Dr. Olle Johannson, neuroscientist
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IRIC), part of the United Nations' World Health Organization (WHO), classifies lead, chloroform, gasoline fumes, DDT and radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF/EMF) as 'Class 2B Possible Human Carcinogens'. Don't ignore the growing threat of EMF pollution - join us for an informative program about how to protect your health.
This week's guest: David Carpenter, M.D., an environmental health expert
Learn about the dangers of wireless technology - before it's too late - Sun. Feb. 1
David O. Carpenter is a public health physician whose current position is Director of the Institute for Health and the Environment at the University at Albany, as well as Professor of Environmental Health Sciences within the School of Public Health at the University at Albany. After receiving his MD degree from Harvard Medical School, he chose a career of research and public health.
Dr. Carpenter's research initially was basic neurobiology and more recently has primarily been the study of human disease resulting from exposure to environmental contaminants. He has focused on the relationship between exposures to a variety of chemicals and ionizing radiation and incidence of several human diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and diseases of the nervous system. With more than 350 peer-reviewed publications and editor of five books, Dr. Carpenter is the leading expert on electromagnetic frequencies and its effects on human health.
The world is waking up to the dangers of wireless technology. In 2014, an international group of doctors and scientific experts urged pregnant women to limit their exposure to wireless radiation from cell phones and other devices. We're all being affected by this technology. Learn how to protect yourself from harm by tuning into the next NaturalNews Talk Hour with Jonathan Landsman.

The below video is about an ebola cure that is suppressed. Ebola is a man made disease as is morgellons I believe.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bryOFf2z6JI
What this doctor is claiming is that a medication known as nano silver can cure most diseases that it has been tested on. I do not know if it will be effective against Morgellons disease but I would think it would be worth a shot.
The natural solutions foundation has an online shop where nano silver can be purchased.
http://www.nsfmarketplace.com/
Dr. Rima Laibow in the above video has been exposing the new world order eugenics program for worldwide "culling" of the population for years so I take her word for it, she has the credentials and is one of those rare medical professionals who understands the true scope of what is going on in the world.
I believe that Morgellons is a man made disease much like Ebola and Aids. I am not saying that this is the cure, Morgellons may in fact be designed to resist Nano silver treatment, But I do believe it is worth a shot.
Godbless and be strong
What is resilience? How adversity builds character
It has often been said that adversity builds character. How does this work?Research on resilience suggests a metaphor: Comparing the building of resilience with the building of strength through physical exercise.
Two quotes from Eleanor Roosevelt capture this:
Do one thing everyday that scares you.
and
I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do, provided he keeps doing them until he gets a record of successful experiences behind him.
You cannot get stronger without exercising (say, for instance, lifting weights). For the training to be significant, you have to go beyond your comfort zone.
However, there is an important note of caution: If you lift weights that are way too heavy for you, you get injured. Then, not only do you not get stronger, you’re not even able to exercise any more, until the injury is healed.
The practical implications are very clear:
- You need to be challenged in order to grow. As you successfully overcome challenges, you build resilience, i.e. the ability to successfully face other challenges.
- But, if the challenges are overwhelming, i.e. too far beyond your capacity to handle adversity, you get traumatized. I use the word “traumatized” to describe a situation that is similar to the physical injury that comes from exercising way beyond your abilities: This reduces your capacity to function effectively, let alone face adversity. You can’t make significant progress until this is healed.
The following is excerpted from an article in The New York Times' Science section, January 5, 2011: On Road to Recovery, Past Adversity Provides a Map, by Benedict Carey
Research suggests that resilience may have at least as much to do with how often people have faced adversity in past as it does with who they are — their personality, their genes, for example — or what they’re facing now. That is, the number of life blows a person has taken may affect his or her mental toughness more than any other factor.
“Frequency makes a difference: that is the message,” said Roxane Cohen Silver, a psychologist at the University of California, Irvine. “Each negative event a person faces leads to an attempt to cope, which forces people to learn about their own capabilities, about their support networks — to learn who their real friends are. That kind of learning, we think, is extremely valuable for subsequent coping,” up to a point.
In a study appearing in The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Dr. Cohen Silver, E. Alison Holman, also of the University of California, Irvine, and Mark D. Seery, of the State University at Buffalo, followed nearly 2,000 adults for several years, monitoring their mental well-being with online surveys. The participants, a diverse cross section of Americans between the ages of 18 and 101, listed all of the upsetting life events they had experienced before entering the study and any new ones that hit along the way. These included divorce, the death of a friend or parent, a serious illness, and being in a natural disaster.
Or, none of the above: A subset of the participants, 194, reported that they had experienced not one of the fairly comprehensive list of 37 events on the survey. “We wondered: Who are these people who have managed to go through life with nothing bad happening to them?” Dr. Cohen Silver said. “Are they hyper-conscientious? Socially isolated? Just young? Or otherwise unique?”
They weren’t, the researchers found. Stranger still, they were not the most satisfied with their lives. Their sense of well-being was about the same, on average, as people who had suffered up to a dozen memorable blows.
It was those in the middle, those reporting two to six stressful events, who scored highest on several measures of well-being, and who showed the most resilience in response to recent hits.
In short, the findings suggest that mental toughness is something like the physical strength: It cannot develop without exercise, and it breaks down when overworked. Some people in the study reported having had more than a dozen stressful events, and it showed.
“These people were truly suffering,” Dr. Cohen Silver said, “and we do not minimize in any way the pain of such events when you’re going through them. But it does appear that if you’ve had several such experiences but not too many, you learn something.”

Maybe you changed your name or got a tattoo and suddenly you find that all hell broke lose in your life?
Well, psychiatrists had rules, at least in the past that only they are allowed to do that and get away with it. But what if you tried and got burned? Maybe you wanted to be a star? Maybe you realized you were gay and gone in realization? And suddenly all hell broke lose? (btw I'm not gay, I like women and they know it ;) You pushed the envelope?
You think that all people are equal under the god, you know what you heard from media? Well, some people are destined to rule and control and you are NOT one of them!
Maybe having some of these symptoms:
- Maybe you have constant humming in left ear/head, sometimes pitch sounds (buzzing) in the left or right side?
- Maybe when you sleep on your right side, with your right side of the head against the pillow you sometimes hear something like clock ticking?
- Maybe you think that one is being watched constantly, maybe looked for hidden cameras in the apartment where you live?
- Maybe you notice that people outside of your house are imitating your private moves and habits you do only in your privacy?
- Maybe you notice strange looks from the people around you, or comments?
- Maybe sometimes headache?
- Maybe unexplained sexual arousal in inappropriate situations? Or lack of it when there should be?
- Maybe you sometimes have strange dreams or images pop up when eyes closed?
- Maybe occasional sirens or strange voices on the left side of the head/ear?
- Maybe sometimes you hear clicks like a morse code on the left side of your head/ear?
- Maybe sometimes you find yourself constantly talking to yourself from the inside of your head?
- Maybe you sometimes sleep to much and sometimes can't sleep at all or stay up all night?
- Maybe you sometimes feel something on the left side of your chest, and you think it might be the heart?
- Maybe you sometimes feel or felt stiffness in your neck?
- Maybe you sometimes had ticks on your head or restlessness in your hands or legs and it went away suddenly like it came?
- Maybe sometimes you feel numbness in your fingers, arms or legs?
- Maybe you sometimes felt something like somebody is poking you in the eye with something sharp?
- Maybe you sometimes noticed changes in your voice tonality?
- Maybe you sometimes have bad skin and sometimes is fine, noticed changes and having circulation problems?
- Maybe you sometimes felt dizzy when standing up and it went away suddenly like it came? Sometimes you might even lost consciousness?
- Maybe yo were forced to psychiatric care and forced to take drugs like risperidone or spent some time in a mental hospital?
- Maybe you told the police or doctors what is happening to you and you just got a schizophrenia diagnose and maybe some mental hospital time?

Whike the majority of members on peacepink are truly good people, some are not. Over tbe five years Ive been on peacepink Ive Witnessed plans to kill office workers by someone trying to recruit TIs to drive a suicide bus into a building. I have read where other members support the actions of Myron May and Aaron Alexis, as righteous acts of war.
On Saturday night in open chat, LaBrat openly confessed to having killed at least one person, and tgere arec4 witnesses. This is disturbing, most esPecially because he said he may kill again.
If we claim to be good people, we Must show concern for innocent life. I have reported this confession to the authorities. However the reality is I am not always on to see tgese confessions. It is a community responsibility to assure innocent life is not lost. If you witness a confession of a frime, or intent to commit a crime, copy it to a place off site like your email,mso the moderators wont delete it. They have a history of protecting those who admit to violence.
If you need help in reporting, or are afraid to get involved, contact me David ofTomorrow and I will arange to make the proper reports.
Thanks, and stay safe!
No governments, media or human rights organisations will admit these electronic crimes and technologies exist and are being used to torture and abuse people.

The third stepping stone was the 2001 book about vigilante stalking by David Lawson, a private investigator, titled "Terrorist Stalking in America", reviewed here:

Ms. Naylor's book, with some material provided by Cheryl Welsh, is clearly a fourth and major stepping stone, by which the targets of vigilante stalking and electronic mind/body harassment hope to see the day the criminals are stripped of their cover, and justice will be served.

Evidence has shown that regular physical activity can improve cognitive function and brain plasticity. However, research has been unclear in proving how much exercise is needed and how long these benefits can last for. A recent study conducted at the University of Adelaide in Australia suggests that one 30-minute session of vigorous exercise can lead to changes in the brain that make it more “plastic,” including improvements in memory and motor skill coordination.
"Although this was a small sample group, it helps us to better understand the overall picture of how exercise influences the brain,” lead researcher Associate Professor Michael Ridding said in a statement. “We know that plasticity is also important for recovery from brain damage, so this opens up potential therapeutic avenues for patients. Further research will be required to see what the possible long-term benefits could be for patients as well as healthy people."
Ridding and his colleagues recruited a small group of adults in their late 20s and early 30s who were asked to ride exercise bikes for a period of 30 minutes. The team of neuroscientists monitored changes in the brain directly after the exercise session and again 15 minutes later. Results show that even one 30-minute session of physical activity can improve the brain’s plasticity, or its ability to change physically, functionally, and chemically. Positive changes in the brain were sustained 15 minutes after exercising.
"We saw positive changes in the brain straight away, and these improvements were sustained 15 minutes after the exercise had ended," Ridding added. "Plasticity in the brain is important for learning, memory and motor skill coordination. The more 'plastic' the brain becomes, the more it's able to reorganise itself, modifying the number and strength of connections between nerve cells and different brain areas. This exercise-related change in the brain may, in part, explain why physical activity has a positive effect on memory and higher-level functions."
A similar study conducted at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign found that regular exercise can benefit the brain’s supply of white matter, also known as “the subway of the brain” due to its ability to connect different regions of grey matter in the cerebrum to each other. Researchers assessed the link between physical fitness and the brain in 24 9- and 10-year-olds. Children who were more physically fit had thicker and denser white matter, meaning they had a greater capacity for memory, attention span, and cognitive efficiency.

Particularly in the 20th century, there have been numerous experiments performed on human test subjects in the United States that have been considered unethical, and were often performed illegally, without the knowledge, consent, or informed consent of the test subjects.
The experiments include: the deliberate infection of people with deadly or debilitating diseases, exposure of people to biological and chemical weapons, human radiation experiments, injection of people with toxic and radioactive chemicals, surgical experiments, interrogation and torture experiments, tests involving mind-altering substances, and a wide variety of others. Many of these tests were performed on children,[1] the sick, and mentally disabled individuals, often under the guise of "medical treatment". In many of the studies, a large portion of the subjects were poor, racial minorities or prisoners.
Funding for many of the experiments was provided by United States government, especially the United States military, Central Intelligence Agency, or private corporations involved with military activities. The human research programs were usually highly secretive, and in many cases information about them was not released until many years after the studies had been performed.
The ethical, professional, and legal implications of this in the United States medical and scientific community were quite significant, and led to many institutions and policies that attempted to ensure that future human subject research in the United States would be ethical and legal. Public outrage in the late 20th century over the discovery of government experiments on human subjects led to numerous congressional investigations and hearings, including the Church Committee and Rockefeller Commission, both of 1975 and the 1994 Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments, among others.
