Prominent rabbis in Maryland who appeared in a video last year urging their congregations to get injected with the COVID-19 vaccine are now maintaining silence about recent studies confirming the vaccine’s dangerous adverse events.&nbsp;The rabbis, including Rabbi Jonathan A. Seidman, Rabbi Zvi Weiss, Rabbi Menachem Goldberger, Rabbi Dovid Heber, Rabbi Tzvi Teichman, Rabbi Shmuel Kaplan, Rabbi Ori Moshe Milrod and Rabbi Elchonon Lisbon appeared together in a video montage modeled after <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRp1CK_X_Yw">videos</a> by Hollywood celebrities urging citizens to vote.&nbsp;Without providing supporting evidence, the rabbis in the video claim that 100% of COVID-19 deaths are unvaccinated, that the vaccine has no negative impact on fertility, that COVID-19 does not discriminate by age or health status, and that the vaccine is safe “across&nbsp;populations”.&nbsp;“The [Master of the World] has given us a gift: COVID-19 vaccines,” the rabbis begin in the video, building the case for the shot. “The vaccines are allowing us to reopen and to enjoy [celebrations] safely again. With all the data that has emerged, we clearly see just how safe and effective the vaccines are across populations, including the elderly, those with underlying health conditions, and pregnant and nursing women. Due to so many people being vaccinated, the number of hospitalizations and deaths decreased greatly since the vaccines were released.”&nbsp;Then, the rabbis moved on to warn their followers of the dangers of not getting vaccinated.&nbsp;“But the numbers of COVID-19 cases are spiking again! In June [2021], 100% of people who [Heaven have mercy] died in Maryland were unvaccinated,” they said, then echoing, “100%. Unvaccinated people died. Died.” &nbsp;“The Delta variant is 225% more transmissible than the original virus, now responsible for over 80% of current cases. [Thank G-d], vaccines are effective against the variants, keeping those people – vaccinated people – out of hospitals and from losing their life. Let’s all feel comfortable [praying in the synagogue]. Take [responsibility] for your neighbor’s health. Protect yourself – and them – by getting vaccinated. &nbsp;“There is unfortunately a lot of misinformation circulating. It’s important to know the truth: after a year of research, clinical trials and the actual vaccines in use, we see no evidence of any kind of negative outcome for fertility and no evidence of increased risk to women of childbearing years. COVID-19 does not discriminate by age or health status. There is no predicting how severe a case someone will experience. Unvaccinated people who were hospitalized or died didn’t think it would happen to them. We are a cohesive community. The best way to ensure our health and safety is with one voice."The rabbis then take turns repeating the words, “one voice.”&nbsp;“Cases are spiking in every state, in our relatives’ cities. Let’s not add Baltimore, [G-d forbid], to that list. The best preparation to prepare ourselves for Rosh Hashanah is to look about our neighbors, our friends, our [congregants in synagogues]. Travel and celebrate the [High Holidays] responsibly - get vaccinated now! The [Master of the World] has given us a gift: safe and effective vaccines. It’s easy and quick.”&nbsp;The video concludes with each rabbi taking turns saying “get vaccinated” and “now”.&nbsp;“Be smart. Be responsible. Get vaccinated.”&nbsp;<div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oK5tUd8r5PI" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>The video appears to be a joint effort by the City of Baltimore, the Baltimore City Health Department, the Associated Jewish Federation of Baltimore and Bikur Cholim.&nbsp;But now the spiritual leaders are silent about the vaccine’s adverse events, specifically regarding fertility and cardiac events.&nbsp;A <a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/andr.13209">peer-reviewed study</a> from Tel Aviv University published this month found that the vaccine causes low sperm count in men for about five months following the shot. And as <a href="https://americasfrontlinenews.com/post/new-study-shows-25percent-increase-in-cardiovascular-event-during-vaccine-rollout">reported</a> by America’s Frontline News, a study from MIT found a 25% uptick in cardiac events among people under 40, entirely correlated to the vaccine.&nbsp;America's Frontline News included these studies when we reached out to many of the rabbis in the video for comment:<blockquote>As I'm sure you are aware, the science supporting these claims is dubious at best, with one recent study (<a href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/andr.13209" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>) showing that the vaccine negatively impacts male fertility. Another study (<a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-10928-z#Sec14" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>) shows that the vaccine has a direct correlation to a 25% increase in cardiac events in young, healthy people.Furthermore, the CDC has&nbsp;<a href="https://americasfrontlinenews.com/post/cdc-admits-failure-to-monitor-covid-vaccine-safety" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">admitted</a>&nbsp;to not monitoring the vaccine's safety as it said it would do.We would be grateful for your response to the following questions, in addition to any other statement you would like to make:<ol><li>What research was done by yourself and the other rabbis on the COVID-19 vaccine prior to promoting it? Were any medical professionals with dissenting opinions consulted?</li><li>On what basis was the claim made that 100% of COVID deaths were unvaccinated?</li><li>Will you be notifying your congregation of any scientific findings on the dangers of the vaccine such as those mentioned above, especially regarding fertility?</li><li>Did your congregation or anyone involved in its administration, including yourself, receive any financial benefit from a governmental body, including grants or any other form of benefit, directly or indirectly in connection with your promotion of the COVID-19 vaccine?</li><li>Have you consulted with the physicians and doctors who predicted the current wave of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10895067/Doctors-trying-determine-young-people-suddenly-dying.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">young healthy people dying inexplicably</a>&nbsp;as a result of the vaccine, and those who are currently saying that it is a result of the vaccine? If not, will you consult with these physicians?</li></ol></blockquote>The rabbis did not respond to America’s Frontline News' request.“We feel betrayed,” Chavah Sherman, a former member of Baltimore’s Jewish community, told America's Frontline News. “A rabbi’s words are like Torah law and we’re taught to listen to the rabbis unquestioningly. But they took advantage of that. They didn’t do real research, they just listened to the government and pushed a potentially lethal substance on their followers, endangering the community.”&nbsp;“Now young, healthy people are dropping dead,” Sherman added, referring to <a href="https://americasfrontlinenews.com/post/media-report-mysterious-deaths-among-young-healthy-people">reports</a> “stymieing” doctors. “Will they be doing another video&nbsp;addressing the dangerous effects of the shots?”&nbsp;It is unclear where the rabbis received the information they did and if they conducted any research of their own before urging their followers to get the shots. They also did not disclose if they consulted with any dissenting physicians prior to the video or if they received any compensation from authorities in exchange for the vaccine commercial.&nbsp;“I find it very sad that the Rabbis will not listen to the other side. They close their ears, they don't want to hear,” shared another Baltimore Jewish community member who chose to remain anonymous for fear of reprisal. “It's very tragic. I personally know somebody who they found dead in their house, in their basement. He had no specific health problems. They won't see any connection [to the vaccine], nobody wants to see any connection.”She went on to say that she had revered one of the rabbis in the video.“One of the rabbis in this video - I'm just shocked. I had always thought of him as a righteous man on two feet. And I just can't wrap my head around it that G-d is blinding his eyes.”“This video is so disappointing,” said Devorah Barron, another member of the Jewish community in Baltimore. “Any rabbi I contacted to share other info was not really interested in the other side. They only follow doctors who believe this is the only route to take. I hope they are not judged too harshly for anyone who followed their advice and got injured or died from following their guidance. Being a rabbi is a huge responsibility. Putting your face on something like this should take a lot of forethought and own research.”She then expressed how she and many other women feel in the Baltimore community.“We really feel lost and leaderless,” she said. “We've been ostracized. People think we're crazy.”“It's a sad moment when you realize your mentor made a huge mistake,” another former community member told America's Frontline News. “But it's even sadder when they won't admit that mistake. Now that the science is showing they were wrong, I hope they'll show respect for their congregations and come clean about the vaccine."Another Jewish resident who says she is familiar with the rabbis wept when she saw the video."There is a feeling of being abandoned and alone, knowing that in this area I cannot follow and rely on the rabbis here in Baltimore and that saddens me very much. They're overall wonderful rabbis.“But G-d wants us to turn only to Him." she added. “So at the same time that there's a feeling of abandonment, there's also a feeling of being strong and grateful. G-d gave me an ability to see more, to pray more, and to turn to Him more.”America’s Frontline News will continue to report on community leaders who promoted the vaccine and remain silent about its risks.&nbsp;

'Leaderless': Jewish Baltimore residents bewail vaccine injuries as rabbis maintain silence

<h2>Move over book burning, hello de-platforming?</h2>Closed out of your Facebook or Instagram account? Maybe your website suddenly disappeared, or your YouTube channel was demonetized or deleted? Perhaps you lost access to thousands of hours of posts and videos you produced, and your years of work were gone in an instant? That's de-platforming; the modern version of book burning, a “punishment” for going against the mainstream narrative. And, the censorship doesn't stop with social media, it includes PayPal accounts and more.<h3>Getting up again</h3>How do individuals who went afoul of the globalists, who didn't keep quiet and let others do their thinking for them, respond when they find themselves de-platformed by social media companies and other services? Here's what London Real's Brian Rose, Americas Frontline Doctor founder Dr. Simone Gold, and independent researcher James Roguski did to pick themselves up and continue their work despite the heavy-handed censorship they experienced.Brian RoseWhen London Real YouTuber Brian Rose publicly began trying to understand COVID-19 and its countermeasures, he soon found his entire life seemingly deleted from the internet by the social media giants.&nbsp;Not only did he lose all his years of work, amounting to thousands of videos which he had uploaded to the internet. He also lost access to his Paypal account, and more, because in his search for the truth about the pandemic; his counter-narrative interviews with David Icke were too dangerous for the globalists to allow. &nbsp;In his below documentary, Rose&nbsp;recounts his experiences and how he ultimately started a channel of his own. He explains that he was wholly unprepared for what happened on May 3, 2020, even though he knew that many would want to stop the interview (@about 3:36):<blockquote>Over the past few weeks, our entire world has been transformed. Everything we took for granted has now been taken away and our freedoms have been replaced with fear. All those rights we fought centuries for have been handed over without a second thought.&nbsp;We all process fear in different ways. I cope by immersing myself in my work and today my job is to ask questions. One million people will be watching and they all want answers.&nbsp;Countless others are trying to stop this from happening. At any moment they can walk through that door or lock this broadcast. I'm scared but I don't know what else to do. I prepared my whole life for a moment like This. But nothing would prepare me for what happened next. . .</blockquote>&nbsp;<div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">WATCH THE MOVIE THAT YouTube DOES NOT Want YOU TO SEE (and SHARE IT Far And Wide ) <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LondonReal?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LondonReal</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WeWillNotBeSilenced?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WeWillNotBeSilenced</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/StopCensorship?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#StopCensorship</a> <a href="https://t.co/txcVpjPDWz">https://t.co/txcVpjPDWz</a>— Brian Rose, Founder &amp; Host of London Real (@LondonRealTV) <a href="https://twitter.com/LondonRealTV/status/1796285778517221575?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 30, 2024</a></blockquote> <script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>&nbsp;Dr. Simone GoldDr. Simone Gold, founder of <a href="https://www.aflds.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">America's Frontline Doctors</a>, was one of the first doctors to understand that how she was being told to treat COVID patients wasn't normal.

A British vigilante group known as the “Blade Runners” is receiving widespread support from British taxpayers as it continues to destroy climate surveillance cameras across London.<h2>The ULEZ mandate</h2>By order of London Mayor Sadiq Khan, the city is peppered with ultra-low emission zones (ULEZs), areas accessible only to low-emission vehicles. Cars that do not meet the city’s environmental standards are charged £12.50 ($16) for entering the ULEZ. Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras positioned around the zones read license plates and check them against the vehicles’ make and model in real time. If a vehicle does not meet the environmental threshold, a fine is levied against the car owner.&nbsp;The ULEZ climate mandate has drawn heavy&nbsp;<a href="https://frontline.news/post/london-hundreds-protest-against-climate-mandates">protests</a> from residents, including&nbsp;<a href="https://frontline.news/post/british-veteran-launches-hunger-strike-as-unrest-grows-over-climate-mandates">hunger strikes</a> and refusals to pay fines. Taxpayers have also taken to disabling the ANPR surveillance cameras which Transport for London (TfL), the city’s transportation department, said will be used both for climate and law enforcement.<h2>Taxpayers cheer the ‘Blade Runners’</h2>Since the climate restrictions were expanded last year, the Blade Runners have taken to disabling and destroying hundreds of cameras. Between April and September 2023, Metropolitan Police recorded 200 reports of cameras being stolen and 595 reports of cameras being vandalized.TfL began placing black boxes around ULEZ camera wirings to protect them from being cut, but taxpayers found other ways to disable the cameras — like removing them completely.<div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"> MUST SEE: Blade Runners topple THREE ULEZ cameras in a coordinated strike… The people are fighting back! <a href="https://t.co/Yvr2Xr7Lun">pic.twitter.com/Yvr2Xr7Lun</a>— David Morgan #StayFree (@david_r_morgan) <a href="https://twitter.com/david_r_morgan/status/1802726912050995623?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 17, 2024</a></blockquote> <script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>In response, the city&nbsp;<a href="https://frontline.news/post/london-taxpayers-attack-surveillance-vans-in-continued-revolt">deployed</a> mobile surveillance vans mounted with ANPR cameras across London in the hopes of evading attacks, but Blade Runners soon began targeting those as well.

Comments on the post were largely supportive, with users writing that, “When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty,” and “Fair play to them, it's a complete scam that does nothing.”Blade Runner Matt Hardy told the&nbsp;Daily Mail&nbsp;that the Blade Runners are “people pissed off about the tyranny reigning over us and getting out and doing things about it – real votes, real boys here.”<h2>‘These cameras are not about the climate. They are about control’</h2>British actor and influencer Laurence Fox said this week he was just given back his electronic devices by police after being arrested earlier this year for cheering on the Blade Runners:<blockquote>These cameras are not about the climate.

British taxpayers cheer vigilante group destroying climate cams

Fisker is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the electric vehicle (EV) company announced Tuesday.<h2>‘Like other companies in the electric vehicle industry’</h2>“Fisker has made incredible progress since our founding, bringing the Ocean SUV to market twice as fast as expected in the auto industry and making good on our promises to deliver the most sustainable vehicle in the world,” a spokesperson <a href="https://assets.ctfassets.net/cghen8gr8e1n/6W19OiEBJDVIFVEmo4feHA/df902c5cb2b067251a300efb0b35f611/Fisker-Filing-FINAL.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">said</a>.The California-based company added it is not the only EV maker that has been struggling to stay in business.“We are proud of our achievements, and we have put thousands of Fisker Ocean SUVs in customers’ hands in both North American [sic] and Europe. But like other companies in the electric vehicle industry, we have faced various market and macroeconomic headwinds that have impacted our ability to operate efficiently. After evaluating all options for our business, we determined that proceeding with a sale of our assets under Chapter 11 is the most viable path forward for the company.”Fisker’s collapse is the latest indication that the EV industry is folding due to sinking demand. Other EV industry players are also cutting their losses as they jump ship.<h2>Hertz</h2>In March, Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr&nbsp;<a href="https://www.motorfinanceonline.com/news/hertz-ceo-resigns-amid-ev-investment-setback/#:~:text=Scherr's%20departure%20coincides%20with%20Hertz's,electric%20vehicle%20(EV)%20rentals">resigned</a> after his bet on EVs cost the car rental giant its biggest quarterly loss since 2020. Hertz had been praised by the Biden administration for its ambition to convert 25% of its fleet to EVs by the end of this year. In January, however, the company announced it would instead be selling its 20,000 EVs — including Teslas — at heavily discounted prices and replacing them with gas-powered cars.<h2>Mercedes-Benz</h2>Mercedes-Benz also recently had to give up its ambition to only sell electric cars by 2030. Instead, EVs are expected to make up only 50% of the German carmaker’s sales over the next decade.<h2>Apple</h2>In February, Apple abandoned its multi-billion dollar effort to create an electric car. Despite being a decade in the works and employing 2,000 people, Project Titan was axed due to falling consumer demand.<h2>Aston Martin</h2>A lack of consumer demand is also partly to blame for Aston Martin&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13138123/Aston-Martin-puts-brakes-new-electric-supercar-2026-bosses-say-drivers-want-engines-throaty-roar.html">placing</a> its battery-operated “supercar” on hold until 2026.“Demand, certainly at an Aston Martin price point, is not what we thought it was going to be two years ago,” said Aston Martin Executive Chairman Lawrence Stroll.&nbsp;<h2>Ford</h2>In December, Ford slashed production of its flagship EV at its assembly plant in Dearborn, Michigan by half. The automaker cut the monthly production quote for the all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck from 3,200 units to 1,600 units per month.<h2>Biden administration continues to force EV production</h2>Nevertheless, the Biden administration in March issued new climate mandates aimed at forcing more EV production. The new rules from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) contain tight emissions standards that will&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/epa-electric-vehicles-emissions-limits-climate-biden-e6d581324af51294048df24269b5d20a">require</a> 56% of new vehicle sales to be fully electric by 2032, with an additional 13% required to be hybrids.

For the last two years, British authorities have been testing AI-powered emotion recognition cameras on travelers in train stations, according to recently disclosed documents.<h2>What can the cameras see?</h2>In each of eight train stations around the UK, five to seven cameras or sensors scan the passing crowds. Using AI software from Amazon, the cameras use object recognition algorithms to spot criminal activity, trespassing, weapons, wet floors, overcrowding, and overstuffed trash cans.&nbsp;They can also alert authorities when passengers engage in “unusual behavior,” such as shouting, running, smoking, or skateboarding.&nbsp;A combination of existing cameras and newly installed smart cameras are being used for the surveillance project. All are equipped with Amazon’s Rekognition surveillance system.<h2>Emotional recognition</h2>Through a combination of facial and behavioral analyses, the Rekognition software allows officials to also <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/amazon-ai-cameras-emotions-uk-train-passengers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">analyze visitors’ emotions</a>. Internal documents note that the cameras can detect whether a passenger is “happy, sad [or] angry.” They can also recognize passenger satisfaction, which “could be utilized to maximum advertising and retail revenue.”<h2>Anti-social behavior</h2>Authorities can also detect passengers who exhibit “anti-social behaviour,” which&nbsp;<a href="https://www.met.police.uk/advice/advice-and-information/asb/asb/antisocial-behaviour/what-is-antisocial-behaviour/">according</a> to London’s Metropolitan Police Service means “behaviour by a person which causes, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to persons not of the same household as the person.”<h2>Social distancing, face masks, and demographics</h2>Other&nbsp;<a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24757655-usecases_dpas_review_managed_stations?responsive=1&amp;title=1">use cases</a> for the surveillance cameras include detecting whether passengers are keeping to social distancing rules and wearing face masks. The cameras can also scan for demographics by identifying people’s age profiles and “socio-economic classification,” which the documents note can create “revenue opportunities for better targeted advertising and product placement.”<h2>‘Quite a concerning step’</h2>The documents were obtained by Big Brother Watch, a civil rights and government watchdog group, in response to a Freedom of Information (FOI) request. Network Rail, a body within the Department of Transportation which manages most of the country’s train network, has been overseeing the surveillance project.&nbsp;“The rollout and normalization of AI surveillance in these public spaces, without much consultation and conversation, is quite a concerning step,” Jake Hurfurt, head of research and investigations at Big Brother Watch,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wired.com/story/amazon-ai-cameras-emotions-uk-train-passengers/">told</a> Wired.As of now, the surveillance systems do not use facial recognition technology, which analyzes faces and matches them against facial images stored in certain databases.
