Fiona Hill, a former top Russia analyst for the White House, said during her testimony on Thursday that conspiracy theories linked to billionaire philanthropist George Soros were anti-Semitic, likening them to “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.”
The comments came after Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) questioned her about conspiracy theories about Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a fellow impeachment inquiry witness who is of Ukrainian Jewish descent. The conspiracy theories have been promoted by Infowars’s Alex Jones and longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone, who was convicted by a federal court last week.
Media Matters (Soros) called Roger Stone’s outing of Fiona Hill as a Soros (OSI) operative a “SMEAR” (Stone was right)
Here’s proof Roger Stone was right–that Fiona Hill has been inside Soros’s Open Society Institute (OSI) (NY) since before Nov. 04, 2000 directorship filing for the INSTITUTE FOR WAR & PEACE, Co. No. 2744185.
Remarkably, she was hired to advise OSI while she was still completing her PhD at Harvard in History. Her PhD thesis chair was Richard Pipes, a notoriously biased Russian history professor who was a speaker at two Bilderberg conferences, was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and was a C.I.A. advisor to Daddy Bush.

According to her resume Fiona Hill worked for the George Soros Open Society Institute from 2000-2006, just 13 years ago.

For today’s respite I have chosen Mantovani And His Orchestra – Autumn Leaves
( Les Feuilles Mortes )
We haven’t had much color here in my neck of the woods. We just had our first frost this past week. The leaves are turning more brown than with color. A bit of a disappointment. This song though, brings back memories of many beautiful falls.
Notes from the clip-“Autumn Leaves” is a popular song. Originally it was a 1945 French song, “fr:Les feuilles mortes” (literally “The Dead Leaves”), with music by Hungarian-French composer Joseph Kosma and lyrics by poet Jacques Prévert. The Hungarian title is “Hulló levelek” (Falling Leaves). Yves Montand (with Irène Joachim) introduced “Les feuilles mortes” in the film Les Portes de la nuit (1946)

This week we celebrate Halloween, All Souls Night and for others Samhain. I chose this video for today’s Sunday Respite.
Halloween is an annual holiday celebrated each year on October 31, and Halloween 2019 occurs this Thursday, October 31. It originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts.
In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints; soon, All Saints Day incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain.
The evening before was known as All Hallows Eve, and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving jack-o-lanterns, festive gatherings, donning costumes and eating sweet treats.
This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

Wishing everyone a wonderful week and a magickal Halloween, All Souls Night and Samhain.

The gremlins have apparently have gotten into my wordpress account. No matter, it was due for an update as it has been around for over ten years and is dated. Certain features are no longer working. I am using an old WP version so it’s time may have come and it is not compatible with newer features. The Side bar for one does not show unless one has chosen an individual post. My apologies to those linking to me.
I had planned on moving on from this wordpress account as they has taken to removing accounts for political purposes and I had wanted a domain anyway.
Either way, I will not be doing day to day posting on any impeachment process. I have spent way too much time and energy on the topic that is upsetting and taking joy from life.
I intend to keep posting here as long as it functions. Should it fail entirely I will try to get a domain with Bunkerville in it. When we first came up with the title we did not anticipate it being more than a friend and family affair blog.
Here we go with my October post.
Best wishes for a wonderful day and much peace.
Wishing everyone a wonderful Labor Day… Thoughts and prayers for all those going through trying times with the hurricane.
We had a few nights of cool weather, and soon we will have nature showing us her best colors. Here is one of my favorite songs. Memories of season’s past.
Here is today’s selection. It’s great in full screen.
GIOVANNI MARRADI – Try To Remember
For today’s Sunday Respite I thought I would chose Beauty on the Roads. It seems appropriate for this weekend.
I thought first i would include a reminder how accurate the so-called hurricane models were when hurricane Irma went through Florida two years ago. I can attest to the “accuracy.” Be safe.
