Israel Is About To Use A Highly Suspicious Technology To Stop Covid From Entering The Country by Howard Bloom

Israel is about to use a highly suspicious technology to stop covid from entering the country. Since January 25th, Israel has closed its borders to foreign travelers. But If you are an Israeli citizen re-entering the country from a foreign nation, you are required to spend two weeks in quarantine, either in a government hotel or at your home. The real trick is to make sure that you do not step out of your quarantine location even once. How can the government be sure that you abide by this restriction, a restriction that could feel like prison to you, but that could save other people’s lives? A new law passed March 17th in Jerusalem requires that you wear an electronic bracelet that will tell your government if you leave your home or hotel room. Say the Israeli authorities, the electronic wrist band will not invade your privacy. It will not listen in on your conversations. If you leave quarantine, the electronic wristband will not even report your location. It will simply report that you are not where you are supposed to be. But you can easily imagine how with just an extra chip or two, the electronic wrist band could listen in on your most private confessions and keep tabs on you 24 hours a day. Where you stand on this electronic intrusion depends on where you sit. Imagine the electronic bracelet being used in the United States.

If you were a Republican and the electronic bracelet was imposed on you by a Biden administration, it might look to you like the beginning of a new communist totalitarianism, the mark of the beast, and a sign that Biden is the anti-Christ. And if you were a Democrat and a Trump administration forced you to wear an electronic bracelet, it might appear to you to be a move toward a Trumpian dictatorship. But if you believed in your government, the bracelet might seem like a wise idea. Which brings up a problem.

The real leader of Israel’s war with the coronavirus is not Israel’s Health Ministry. Israel’s minister of health at the beginning of the covid crisis a year ago said covid was irrelevant because the messiah was about to come in April. So he acted as if Covid did not exist and, in fact, came down with covid himself. Yet Israel is one of the most admired countries in the world for its success confronting covid. More than half the Israeli population has now been vaccinated, a level of vaccination no other country in the world has achieved. How did this happen in spite of a Health Minister who was asleep at the switch? Israel’s spy agency, its Mossad, is recognized as one of the most effective intelligence agencies in the world. In February 2020, just as covid was rearing its ugly head, the head of the Mossad ran into the head of Israel’s biggest hospital, the Sheba Medical Center, at a private dinner and got an earful on the coming danger of covid. And on the serious shortages already hitting Israeli hospitals. So the Mossad made the war with covid one of its highest priorities. The Mossad chief called around to the heads of foreign intelligence services and to the heads of a few countries and managed to wrangle medical essentials for Israel just before the whole world was about to cry out for them. These included covid tests, ventilators, masks, and protective equipment. The Mossad also obtained the technologies Israel needed to manufacture ventilators and masks on its own. Today, Israel produces 25 million masks a month. But if you were ordered to wear an electronic bracelet for two weeks, would you get queasy about the fact that a spy agency was at the center of your nation’s anti-covid campaign? It all depends on whether you viewed that spy agency as your enemy or trusted that spy agency to defend your life. Israelis believe their Mossad saves lives.
