The deadline imposed by ISIS for Japan to pay $200 million to free two captives passed, starting what the terrorist group called a countdown clock on Friday, even as questions swirled about the authenticity of the initial tape and whether the pair is even alive.

A tweet from a Twitter account linked to ISIS said the hostages had been killed “because of Japan’s choices.” The tweet, on the same one that previously posted the countdown clock, warned that a new video was “being sent to production.” Intelligence sources told Fox News the claim the hostages had been killed could not be confirmed, but said the situation is being monitored as they await release of a new video.    Continue reading “Experts say ISIS ransom clip faked as deadline for Japanese hostages passes”

We have seen the “depopulation agenda” waved away as simply a conspiracy theory time and time again, despite public statements from very high profile personalities and members of the elite, despite a government sourced website (data obtained from govt sources,the site itself isn’t a .gov site) projecting a 78 percent drop in American population by the year 2025, despite all evidence showing the agenda is real…. and now a study shows yet another manner being implemented to obtain that objective.   Continue reading “Wiping Out America…..
