The Fiasco Squad

Eyes Wide Open In Wonderland’s Dystopic Vision

1942 as head of the British Institute Radio Engineers Lord Louis Mountbatten gave a speech on the “thinking machine” a direct reference to the first development of what we now know as AI and the work being done at Bletchley Park, the British intelligence code breaking unit staffed by the homosexual and alleged pedophile Alan Turring. Uncle to Andrew Mount Batten and King Charles Mount-batten was the high-ranking naval officer and tech savy pedo royal mate of alleged pedo Arthur C Clark (who in turn counted Charles among his mates).

This would occur at the same time Donald Barr, father of US Attorney General William Barr a fluent German, mathematician was working on developing new technology (including the UK Navy’s over horizon radar that Clark was closely linked to) for the OSS, a predecessor to the CIA, in Europe. Making him one a very small circle of people working in such areas at this time. After the war he gravitated towards sci-fi writing producing several short stories and book called Space Relations whose plot follows thus.

“In the future, humans have formed an intergalactic empire ruled by aristocrats. During a time of war with the Plith, an empire of ant-like alien bug people, ambassador John Craig, a formerly liberal Earth man in his 30s, is dispatched to the strategically important planet Kossar, a human colony that was settled by the Carlyle Society as a place of exile for political extremists and now is ruled by an oligarchical high council of seven nobles, each of whom is in charge of a different domain with its own traditions. Their boredom and absolute power have driven them to madness, to the point that Kossar’s entry into the empire has been stymied by the Man-Inhabited Planets Treaty’s clause (written by Craig) against alliances with slave owning societies, due to its practice of kidnapping humans to become illegal playthings of the galaxy’s super-rich”.

Mount Barton had in turn multiple connections to Kensington club (Crowley ) located next to Kensignton Royal gardens famed of Peter Pan. Mount batten was also closely affiliated with St Petersburg (Putin Town) based Romanovs who were also deeply into occult as was Lord Jellico a member of New Zealand own branch of Crowley Kensington HQ Golden Dawn Whare Ra in havelock North and was a future Governor General of New Zealand among his many titles.

Jellicoe & Mountbatten were symbols of the old-world order still trying to have relevance in new and quickly changing new world order. Increasingly the institutes of this modern world are themselves becoming stagnant and repeating pattern of the of the old order interm of hoarding knowledge and wealth. The Kensington Society itself cover the various spiritualist movement set up in Kensington in the late 1800s early 1900s including.

• College of Psychic Studies: dedicated to the study of psychic and spiritualist phenomena, was founded in 1884 (as the London Spiritualist Alliance) based in South Kensington.
  
• The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn:  founder by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers, operated a headquarters out of a building in West Kensington (specifically, what is now a cafe at 36 Blythe Road). Aleister Crowley, a famous English occultist, was initiated into the order there.
  
• The Quest Society: Founded in 1909 by G. R. S. Mead, this society held lectures on the comparative study of religion, philosophy, and science at the old Kensington Town Hall. It aimed for an undogmatic approach to esoteric studies.
  
• Society for Psychical Research: While not specifically “Kensington Society,” the Society for Psychical Research (SPR), a pioneering scientific organization dedicated to examining paranormal phenomena, was set up in London in 1882 and has significant archival holdings nearby at Cambridge University Library. 

Weirdly many of these ‘wiccans’ where also prominent scientists including the father of Eugenics Ronald Fisher (whose formula for singularity Anova was the name sake given to a piece of designer Jewelry made by Dynsberg Kern which own PM Jacinda often wears) Jack Parsons who also worked with NZ William Pickering, who led the Californian branch of Crowley’s Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.) and engaged in “sex magic” rituals. And then there was L. Ron Hubbard, the future Naval officer and founder of Scientology who influenced organization like Setti heavily in addition to in all probability the US Airforce’s Hollywood based Wonderland studio which would later be implicated in the Wonderland Gang John Holmes homicides which revolved around the reprisal following theft
of narcotics from a key supply of LA narcotics peddled through the night clubs on Hollywood Boulevard – that linked direct to the former Wonderland studios via Laurel Canyon. As well as being the name’s sake for the Wonderland Murder which covered the disappearance of children in the early 1980s from Laurel Canyon and the Wonderland Charles Manson killings. It was even used by Michael Jackson to name his own ranch. Unsurprisingly Wonderland was the name given by detectives to a pedophile ring discovered in 1998. Detectives seized 750,000 images of abuse and found 145 male members. Membership was granted when an individual could provide 10,000 pictures of children being sexually abused. In September, police recovered 750,000 images and videos depicting 1,263 different children from the illicit group who was headquarter in California and had their own initiations rituals.

The original Wonderland was Airforce base at Lookout Mountain in Laurel Canyon used for propaganda and psychological operations as many of the children of the classified military operation (specifically involving chemistry of mathematics) went on to be leaders of pop culture and gravitated to Laurel Canyon including Led Zepli, John Phillips (Mamma & Poppas) Dave Crosby who dad Major Floyd Crosby workedfor US intelligence making military propaganda films during WW2 at the Wonderland studios .

Wonderland/Golden Dawn would both have overlaps with US Pyops commander Michael Aquino operation in Presidio San Francisco. Aquino went to head the church of Set in the 1980’s and has since being found linked to organization such as the far based Church of Odin. Hubbard himself was the founder of billion-dollar Scientology church (whose members have included Tom Cruise, Danny Davitto, John Travolta, Whoopi Goldberg) and is credited with the rite called the “Babalon Working”. Cruise of course stars in Stanley Kubrick Eyes Wide Shut about wealthy billionaire with hallow hearts trying to find meaning in clandestine secret societies and pseudo spirtuality.

The general popularity of 19th century occult concurred in the era of Darwinism when new ideas and new technology saw the fusion of a New Dawn. An era which incorporated old world paganism with new world science or at least pseudo-science ideas such as eugenics. Members of the aristocracy seemed very drawn to these fringe ideas and developing technologies. And the pattern repeated today with many of Epstein guest including tech billionaires and scientist invited to dinner where pseudo intellect tries to merge new age ideas with cutting edge technology and discourse of colonizing mars into a Wonderland of their own liking.

In the late sixties as Arthur C Clark wrote the 2001 Space Odyssey, which began with Kubrick’s interest in Clarke’s short story “The Sentinel’, which warning on the dangers of technology (with John Good the British mathematician who worked as a cryptologist at Bletchley Park with Alan Turing as the movies AI consultant) Bar wrote Space relation about the colonization plans of the human trafficking elite which includes idea of farming children for fun and organ harvested to handle rigors of space and to improve genetics of inbreed families. Barr then hired Epstein who would recruit more than 21 scientists to his orgy Island as he discussed space colonization. Epstein like Robert Maxwell seemed to recruit blackmail pedo with access to power, money, technology including Mount Batten nephew Andrew while of course Charles own pedo links included Clark (accused but cleared by authorities) Bishop Conway, Rolf Harris, Jimmy Saville.

Was Space Relations a parody of what Barr (who incidentally was also an expert on child trauma) learned in OSS. Did Epstein tap into that knowledge for his own black mailing and space fantasy purposes?

WILL THE REAL JACNDA ARDERN STAND UP

As rumors of Ardern run at the top UN job continues to grow Ben Vidgen author of the widely cited Ardern in 7 minutes does a recap on Dame Ardern to demonstrate that rather than being a ‘communist’ or Queen of progressive liberal values Dame Ardern is simply a pawn of Rogernomics 2.0 and that the progressive liberal brand she has tried to sell here in NZ and increasingly over-seas are assisted by the same neoliberal promoters and spin doctors who helped sell P-Diddy and Tax dodges disguised as ‘soup kitchens’

WATER WARS DOWN UNDER

2014 Department of Conservation ranger agitating to pull organisations together in 2013 to save the Eyrewell beetle was silenced by Doc management. What was once a forest is now home to 14,000 dairy cows. Satellite photographs show centre-pivot irrigators are busy creating grass where trees once stood. The forest was home to a small, dark brown beetle commonly known as the Eyrewell ground beetle. Globally, only 10 have ever been found. All were found amongst trees in Eyrewell Forest, the last in 2005. The beetles’ home was returned to Ngāi Tahu as part of a treaty settlement in 2000. Since then, the 6700 hectares of plantation pines have steadily disappeared, and dairy cows have taken over.

2015 I discovered Fonterra getting to brief on water from US Chief Joint of Staff as they want to get into the water business – source the guy who took the briefing Nick Gerritsen

2015 I hear the rumor of Fonterra Doc Meridan Ngai Tahu flying bankers into Fjordland to inspect the glaciers. I assume the rumor can’t be confirmed – wrong DOcs CEO Lou Sanders slap a photo of the group on his web site include Goldman Sachs Toyko CEO author of the concept of green bond (derivatives market) Nestle and other banking interest.

On his blog DIC Lou Sanford noted “Fonterra Living Water Partnership Recently I was able to take Fonterra Chair John Wilson and CEO Theo Spierings for a night at Plateau Hut in Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park. The aim was to share progress on Living Water and enable a unique DOC experience for one of our key partners. We discussed how the new project management of the $20 million Living Water project is working and the move to work closely with dairy farmers on improving water quality at the five catchment sites”. Lou Sanson, Director-General DOC.

The Nature Conservancy (TNC) promotes itself as a charitable environmental organisation, pursuing solutions to conservation challenges, and working with partners including indigenous communities, businesses, governments, multilateral institutions, and other non-profits. DOC stated “TNC are significant donors to conservation around the world and across the Asia Pacific region and covered the costs of this helicopter charter”. You can read more about TNC on their website. The TNC personnel present included a Nestle executive and reportedly included Sach Toyko top man Masanori Mochida (masanori.mochida@gs.com for anyone wanting to know) whose name is on a 2014 Goldman Sach annual report which bears all its directors including Mochida’s name.

It states;

“Environmental sustainability continues to be a focus across both the public and private sectors”. In February 2014, the Goldman Sachs Environmental Finance Innovation Summit brought together companies, investors, development banks, NGOs, policymakers and key thought leaders to discuss market-based approaches to the environment. A particular focus of the Summit included GREEN BONDS to fund new projects, green banks “to finance clean energy technologies and public/private partnerships to address critical water infrastructure and other needs around the world”. The report declares that Goldman Sachs has been an innovator in the green bond market, “a market that saw nearly $39 billion in new issues last year, more than twice the volume in 2013, according to Bloomberg”. In March DOC hosted The Nature Conservancy Board in Auckland and Fiordland last month. Conservation Minister (Greens) Eugene Sage (daughter on mining surbey said to have detailed knowledge of West Coast mining resources) opened the symposium, which covered NZ international innovation in marine and freshwater management, and natural capital funding models.

TNC is financially sponsored by numerous corporations including Goldmansach Coca Cola and Nestles. August 29th 2018 Coca-cola sates

“Our (water) replenish projects are conducted with the expertise and support of many critical partners such as World Wildlife Fund (WWF), USAID, The Nature Conservancy, Water For People, Water and Sanitation for the Urban Poor (WSUP), Global Water Challenge, UN-HABITAT, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).”

2015 Same trip only sheep farmer in Tuatapere tells me how Meridan brought up the valley and leased it all to dairy on understanding one day they will have to move. After several attempts to buy him out the Meridan agent says sell up or be flooded out – inspection on Manapouri shows new wires with increased voltage installed so loaded nearly touching the trees. The voltage the new wires can handle is about twice its normal load ( pretty much the whole South Island network has been upgraded since then ).

2018 Ngai Tahu talk about converting Tiwai to a Hydrogen plant their no mention that the catalyst will involve iron sands from the West Port that become radioactive and highly toxic when moved.

2017-18 During my investigation of Tiwai I not only find ouvea smelter dross at Matura but I find and photograph it at site in Awarua, Liddel St, Bond St all in flood prone areas all in non-sealed bags . I find Gore Council and Invercargil documents that outlay the toxic content which I read out at the Matura meetings TVNZ camera man film me, but the footage is only shown minus the audio.

Hamish McCullun formerly of Taha soils confirming the toxicity of Ouvea is far worse than the public were told. The Ouvea at Matura under public scrutiny is moved out at nighttime. The trucks are not moving it with like or special Haz suits as McCullum stressed was needed.

Based on the smelter output of 5 percent were talking hundreds of millions of dollars in toxic materials. Sources confirm material still stored in Tiwai and Ravensdown signage support their statements. Ditto some stuff shipped offshore via Bluff (where Environmental South is a shareholder) but as fast as ship it the smelter produces more. Ouvea’s main danger is the impact it has on nitrate levels in soils (as I understand it) led to believe is mixing it in fertilizer and road (based on Environment South report which takes piss out Enviro South own management and its hypocritical status as Southland Port share holder)

October 2018 Ngāi Tahu Farming told Stuff the last of the forest would be removed for the intensive dairy conversion. Its CEO Andrew Priest said the organisation turns to Ngāi Tahu values to guide their farming.

2018 became aware that former Russian KGB agent Alex Kouzminov, author of Biological Espionage, working for Waikato District Council is touring NZ inspecting our artisan wells and water ( Source Terri Knight Kiwi Distillery Golden Bay) becomes involved in Waiwera Thermal pools and bottling plant as a Russian syndicate buy Studholme Dairy factory in Waimate and dairy farms up Waitaki. Russian users are listed as the largest users of data based on water use set up by Waitaki Council.

2019 Weeks before Chch shooting Chch mayor Liane Dalziel is busted trying to give preferential treatment to Chinese consortium wanting to buy Ocean Cloud bottled artisan water from a deep aquifers feed from. At the same time frame Ngai Tahu put in court papers making a guardianship claim to all of the South Islands water.

Post shooting NZ government gives Ngai Tahu dairy 56 million subsidiary to put 14000 cows on the Canterbury plains in partnership with Waimakari Irrigation Ltd directors include Russell Carmody who along with Scott Carmody were former owner of Eyrewell lodge now headquarters of Ngai Tahu Dairy who are in partnership with Lincoln for sustainable water management care and observation

Scott Carmody detains Chch shooter Brenton Tarrant who just killed 51 people including Professor Muhammad Abdus Samad, a retired lecturer from the Bangladesh Agricultural Development Corporation and a visiting professor at Lincoln University specialising in water care. This is no big deal in itself and with our giving you a blow-by-blow account. Something just not adding up in Chch shooting. I was an artillery intelligence operator for 32E so my questions are

1. Where the ballistic report there literally no accounting for who fired what were

2. The Alnoor mosque was repaired in just two days by a Labour Party friendly cleaner. So all ballistic evidence was gone. The Linwood Mosque was leveled shortly after.

Using police evidential summary report and walking the route I discovered

A. Each intersection has high resolution cameras. Yet police used low resolution photos so you couldn’t see the shooters car clearly but at 100 meters from Linwood summary confirm the shooter’s car has three bullets in it based on one unnamed witness. The report says not sure whose bullet holes which is the bit that convinced me something not right here .

To start with if it was a cop who fired there must be a job sheet saying who fired when where & what. To suggest that just went golly gosh we don’t know who fired is nonsense and in 35 years of covering this sort of things I have never seen a case where eventually you don’t get a blow-by-blow account of who fired what when and where.

In short the Empirical summary is being doctored.

Witness from 3 points -a bar next door, a tyre shop across the road next to a takeaway with a smash window ( suggesting Tarrant fired at something away from the mosque) and car traveling towards the mosque describe the shooter being engaged by unknown personnel in Australian camouflage – possibly 2 Commando who were training with other visiting soldiers and police as part of numerous counter terror drills being held ( including the one Carmody and Manning were attending at Princess Margaret) who helped the first responders. Which is fine but again if they fired weapons that should be in the investigation summary but it’s not.

In short, I’m making no claims, but I do believe

1. Our soils are worse than were being told

2. It almost seems as if the business model were looking at is fuck the river water we will use that to power smelter and data centers and then charge a fortune on artisan wells water or if we cant have it just pollute it eg Sam Creek.

This is why I wanted to see what Professor Abdus Samad one of the victims of the March 15 th shooting who was looking at the declining water quality of Christchurch but I just don’t seem to be able to find any of his reports online or even listed which is yet another oddity

2022:  Te Whenua Hou Te Whenua Whitiora – The New Land, The New Horizon, the $11.5 million programme aims for a 20 percent reduction in water usage, greenhouse gas emissions and nitrate leeching by 2030.Ngāi Tahu Holdings Farming and Forestry General Manager Will Burrett is “very excited” about the trial, which in essence is about finding more resilient and ethical practices.

2022 Stats NZ figures show Canterbury’s dairy cattle numbers at 1.25 million, up 10-fold from 113,000 in 1999. ECan in 2025 found 44% of the wells, or eight out of 18, exceeded the maximum acceptable value (MAV) in New Zealand’s drinking water standards of 11.3 milligrams of nitrate-nitrogen per liter of water.

2022 New research has found there is not enough rain and river water in Canterbury to dilute nitrate pollution from dairy farming to acceptable drinking water standards. Former NZSIS agent Dr Mike Joy report shows every liter of milk produced in the region needs up to 11,000 litres of water to dilute the pollution from its production.

2024 I arrived in Golden Bay I walked in one night to hear Merv Solly saying how Tiwai was trying to sell him Ouvea as fertiliser. Not sure what happened as Merv never brought it up again and sidestep when I asked him about it. No smear on Merv who is a decent man. But I would like to know.

2024 Companies Cloud Ocean Water and Rapaki Natural Resources have been allowed to extract 9 billion of liters of water each year from Christchurch’s aquifers using a decades-old consent granted for industrial use. Belfast water” and “Ngāi Tahu” are linked through a legal dispute where the Ngāi Tūāhuriri hapū (a sub-tribe of Ngāi Tahu) has successfully opposed a foreign water bottling company in the suburb of Belfast, Christchurch. This is part of a broader, landmark court case initiated by Ngāi Tahu against the Crown for a greater say in the management of South Island freshwater.

The larger Ngāi Tahu freshwater claim

The lawsuit: Ngāi Tahu is suing the Crown for recognition of its rangatahi (authority) over South Island freshwater. Their argument: The tribe argues that it has never given up control of the freshwater, as it did not cede it in the Treaty of Waitangi or subsequent land deeds.

The goal: The lawsuit seeks a partnership with the Crown to manage water, not sole ownership. It aims to have freshwater managed sustainably for the benefit of the community, including cultural practices like whitebaiting, recreation, and economic development.

Why it matters: This is a significant legal case because it has the potential to redefine freshwater rights and management in the South Island. In an unprecedented case, Ngāi Tahu is suing the Crown in a bid to share control of water management in its tribal area. “it says the health of water under the current regime has become increasingly degraded and that it has been prevented from properly exercising”.

2025 Canterbury regional council said up to 25,000 more dairy cows could be added to the region’s herd this year, following an end to a temporary ban on intensive dairy farm conversions. Environment Canterbury (ECan) kept data on new dairy discharge consents as a proxy for conversions, which showed there were 32 new consents approved this year, and 15 more in progress.
