I have increasingly said that all around those who live in the “western democracies” there is an information war taking place. The primary targets of that information war are the truth tellers who do not point fingers directly toward the Potemkin Village of political representatives, but more importantly point out the people who really control the actions taken by the politicians.
Within this quiet and opaque battlespace, a place where only the well-studied and smart grey people travel, we talk about root causes and identify the true origin of the cancerous control systems. This is the world of finance, money and global influence, the political outcomes are downstream. The grey men are the ones who I believe are the core of the greatest awakening. I consider myself a proud member.
Amid the “grey man group” is the voice of Neil Oliver, a voice who was increasingly red pilling the people of Great Britain, who, like us, are also in an abusive relationship with government. The British Government through OfCom took Neil Oliver off air stopping his televised broadcasts. However, even though they are not allowed to have him on television, GBNews still puts Oliver’s content on YouTube. WATCH:
[Transcript] – We tell ourselves that children are our most precious resource and treasure. We sing songs about it. I believe that children are our future and all that jazz. Let’s have a look at the recent reality of life and death of children around the world, shall we?
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, more than 12,300 children have been killed in that open air prison since October last year. The children of the generation that went through the fires of hell and said, never again, are witnessing 21st century children consumed by other flames.
Plausible genocide the International Court of Justice calls it, if taken at face value, it would mean more children died in Gaza between October last year and February this year than the combined number of all that died in all conflict around the world in the four years from 2019 to 2022.
For those who dismiss numbers presented by the Gaza Health Ministry as unreliable, even fictional, the Save the Children charity estimates the total of dead children in Gaza in the 100 days from October to the end of January, that’s already six weeks out of date, at 10,000.
Whichever figures you believe, it seems reasonable to accept we are confronted by a lot of dead children and babies piling up in the few square miles of Gaza. There’s all manner of footage, again, much of it roundly dismissed as fake in some way of little corpses pooled from piles of rubble and wrapped in brightly coloured blankets for transport to God knows where. Maybe God does know.
Hopefully God cares as well, because evidently not enough of the right people do. Not enough to make it stop. Children are our future, we sing. So what about all those children with no futures at all?
Last month, Unicef estimated at least 17,000 Gazan children had been orphaned by that war, or at least separated from all family and therefore left alone. 17,000 stories of heartbreak and grief. In a separate report for Unicef, the plight of the children of Ukraine was laid bare.
Two years of chaos, destruction and loss, separation from families, disrupted schooling, disrupted health care, reports of a mental health crisis and a learning crisis. Many children have fled the chaos alone, exposing them to abuse of every kind. Human trafficking on an industrial scale. Children robbed of childhood. Scars visible and invisible. Human traffickers, child traffickers. Dark tales abound of more of the same harvesting a bumper crop of orphans in Gaza, too.
It seems to me that present evidence makes plain that far from irreplaceable treasures, too many children are treated as disposable.
Closer to home, we have altogether different damage to contemplate. All parents hear and share anecdotal evidence of harms caused to children during the Covid years.
In lockdown, the response to the neighbourly question ‘how are you all doing’ was met first with a cheery ‘fine’, time spent digging deeper, however, invariably revealed struggles, anxieties, real concerns about youngsters.
We must now conclude that as a society, we will be dealing with the poisonous consequences of lockdown for years to come, if not forever. A consensus on the number of so-called ghost children, those who fell off the radar of schools and social services during the Covid debacle and haven’t been heard of since is hard to come by, but tens of thousands is certain.
And the think tank Centre for Social Justice says 100,000. The CSJ tries to keep a spotlight on the poorest and most disadvantaged in society. And as early as 2021, they were warning: “Covid 19 has wreaked havoc in our schools. Young people’s life chances have been laid waste by successive school shutdowns and interruptions to the learning.
“The damage caused by lockdowns could not be clearer than in the case of school attendance. The pandemic has given rise to a generation of ghost children. If we’re not careful, we’re creating an Oliver Twist generation of children exposed to significant safeguarding hazards”.
Over the years here at GB News, I’ve spoken specifically about children. My primary motivation for speaking out at all in any context from the beginning three or four years ago was, as a parent, fearing for my own children, what lockdown and the rest of the madness would do to them.
How it would affect their futures by fundamentally altering the fabric of society. When it came to the product pushed as vaccines, my number one focus was on making sure no needle touched any of my children. And so from time to time on a Saturday night, I made children the focus of what I was talking about, including asking questions about harms caused to so many by the malignancy of the lockdown policies that kept families apart, closed schools, delayed learning to speak, compromised normal emotional and psychological development, delayed the learning of social skills left unknowable numbers isolated in dangerous domestic circumstances.
But the truth is that the viewing figures for those monologues, were always conspicuously lower than those on other subjects. Maybe when it comes to children, too many people just don’t want to know, just don’t want to think about it. But here we are in 2024 and our world made different.
All parents know that if their children were hooked on phones and the rest of the tech before lockdown, that time of enforced isolation only cranked up the addiction. We all hear the stories about spikes in the number of children self-harming with eating disorders, simply struggling with day to day life, referrals for children needing mental health treatment spiked along with the rest.
Last year, it was reported that one in five primary and secondary aged children are behind in their speech skills, their understanding of words. Charity Speech and Language UK said it was the highest number of children with speech and language challenges ever recorded. 80 per cent of teachers said children in their classrooms were lagging behind.
This is fundamental, condemning generations to underachievement, to isolation from society on account of not understanding, not being able to make themselves understood. During a recent parliamentary debate on excess deaths, Conservative MP Dr Caroline Johnson, a consultant paediatrician as well as an MP, reported that up to March 2023, there was an 8 per cent increase in child deaths compared to the year before.
She went on to say suicide and self-harm was the main cause of death for children between the ages of ten and 17 “getting much worse in the 10 to 14 age group”. Stop for a moment to take that in. Of course, the vast majority of MPs won’t discuss excess deaths full stop, staying away in droves from any debates on the subject.
Which brings me to the subject of accountability. We can see where we are now, surrounded by children struggling, falling behind, falling through cracks in the floorboards, dying in greater numbers than before, self-harming, killing themselves. All of this has happened on our watch.
In a time made utterly different by official policies, with which MPs of all stripes remained in lockstep, almost without exception, giving the full-throated support. Safe and effective, that, worst of all mantras was a death sentence for uncounted numbers.
Worst of all, it was never based on data of any sort, just baseless, preordained propaganda from the start. Save our NHS, three weeks to flatten the curve. No jab, no job, or yet more mantras, all of them contributing to the alternative reality in which we find ourselves with children bearing so much of the brunt.
Last week, the summertime catch up tsar tasked back in 2020 with helping repair the damage done to education, talked about the circumstances that saw him resign his post and walk away in disgust, describing how government at first promised commitment and then refused to foot the bill for the necessary measures.
Sir Kevin Collins said: “All these things we could have done to send a signal about childhood, but we did nothing. We gave up. It was pathetic”. We must have accountability from MPs, from doctors, from scientists, from the media, from all levels of the establishment. Because if those who set and train the policies that left us where we are remain in post, then we will have learned nothing, and even worse consequences will lie ahead.
All the time children were shut up at home, all the time we were told children are resilient, it was wine time Friday in Downing Street, a maskless free for all who had access to the data, plainly reassured those ruling our lives, restricting our lives that there was nothing at all to fear. We know where we are. Hardly any child can report a peer that died of Covid.
Plenty more have seen youngsters, often the fittest of the fit youngsters, dropping dead on the field of play for reasons that are never made plain, never discussed, like so many of us have certainly known family members, neighbours, parents of friends succumbing to unexpected heart attacks and strokes.
More of those who feature in the spiking figures of the excess deaths were not supposed to notice, far less mention. A generation of our youngest, at crucial times in their education knew they were let down by teachers, by university lecturers, let down by the authorities that closed the schools and the gyms and the rest of the venues making up the fabric of their lives, that they were pressured into accepting medical interventions even when they’d had Covid and so had natural immunity from an illness that posed them no meaningful threat anyway, so they could get into pubs and nightclubs.
They look on the adults, those who wielded power over them and find no reason to trust those so-called grownups ever again. It’s no exaggeration whatever to say that on the altar of save Granny, children’s well-being was knowingly sacrificed, and many of them know it. I remember seeing at the time that a society standing behind a shield made of its own children, that forces children to risk their lives by being injected with products that were demonstrably neither safe nor effective, and that, most important of all, they never needed, is no society at all.
Here’s the thing. Society sought to put children’s lives on hold, to shut them indoors, to sacrifice their education, to turn a blind eye to the hobbling of the natural development of the very youngest and most vulnerable.
I ask again, where are we as a society? Who are we as a species if we don’t put children first at all times as parents? Our gut reaction should be to nurture and care. So why do we so often look the other way, while so much is inflicted on the innocent by those guilty of putting profit and ideology before the wellbeing of our youngest?

Life as a “grey man” looks like this….
….. But, we are on the right side of history.
I appreciate your fellowship!
The vaccine is Trump’s achilles heel if he doesn’t take the advice of Barnes et al and start to pivot. It’s a message we must all get to him.
MAGA DOESN’T PIVOT.
No need
Trump was lied to…Plain and simple.
Yes, he was lied to; but at some point he needs to acknowledge that fact and respond accordingly.
“Whichever figures you believe”
Whichever ? How about being rational and believing neither. Especially as party two likely got their “figures” from party one. Rather like CNN gets it numbers from the Biden keepers. Why believe either?
I know everyone thinks the Covid imprisonment is the cause of our children’s ignorance. I’ve worked in schools since 1988. Sorry, but dumbing down has been going on for a long time. Fani Willis didn’t get stupid from lockdowns.
Hamasniks use children as shields. There is no way any Hamas/ Gazan
Count of ANYTHING is accurate.
Gods wrath will come upon those who have harmed children. Children innocent of the crimes of their caretakers. Children born in the image of God.
What did Jesus say about the children held back from him?
I got Tuckered one time. I mentioned Pizzagate on CTH. I also got Tuckered here for mentioning Eric Ciaramella. And Ray Epps. Come to think about it, I have been Tuckered on CTH more than Tucker has been Tuckered on Tucker.
yet you are still here and posting….
settle down ….
try posting something the least bit controversial on powerline blog or linked in…
employ a verbotten word or phrase and you’re toast.
not here.
6his is a great site. IMO
Censorship is censorship here, there, and everywhere else.
Here in liberalized suburbia the children who understand the truth are slowly growing in numbers, and are rapidly growing in strength.
Sundance, I appreciate your fellowship too! As well as that of all the other sane thinkers for whom you provide a space for conversation.
Thank you!
Nice to see Neil Oliver calling out our “gallant little ally” Israel and what it’s doing to the people of Gaza and it’s children.
Sort of reminds us what it did to the USS Liberty in 1967.
Does the Amen Corner approve of this?
Utterly kill the Amelikites. If you don’t Haman will build your gallows.
I wonder if the Jews have read their scriptures.
If someone broke into Neil Oliver’s home and killed his wife and then kidnapped his children, what would Neil Oliver do?
Does anybody think maybe there’d be a lot less killing … if Hamas would release hostages?
Have CTH readers joined the “Rape is Resistance” folks?
Youall are aware that Christian villages in Africa routinely and regularly get massacred in exact same way as October 7 ….
far, far away from gaza, far far far away from jews
“The debate begins with moderator Bernard Shaw of CNN asking Dukakis, “Governor, if Kitty Dukakis were raped and murdered, would you favor an irrevocable death penalty for the killer?”
There may have been other questions in the 90 minutes, but this is the one that everyone remembers.”
Dukakis said no. I guess he didn’t care much for his wife.
I am wishing and wishing and wishing that Marl Levin (a very big Trump supporter, btw as big as they now get) would somehow someway become aware of Neil Oliver’s existence and opinions on this matter and invite him on his TV program and that Neil Oliver would accept. Maybe even arrange for President Donald J. Trump to watch and listen to the program and then make his comments during the last 5 or 10 minutes.
I would pay to see that.
Ps gaza before October 7 had several universities and multiple hospitals and the ability to build sophisticated high-quality tunnel system larger than the NYC subway system, as well as luxury villas for the hamasrulers not to mention huge arsenal of all kinds of weapons rocket launchers that reach everywhere in Israel
Some hellhole in an area twice the size of Washington DC
Hamas elite have taken almost all the “aid” (and its the most “aidd wallowing recipient in the world”, and built those tunnels.
They overpumped the aquifer into the tunnels, and left almost none in the city. Same with electricity.
They refused a new, FREE, RO desalination plant to be built that could provide massive amounts of clean water, AND a proffered deal w/Egypt, the PA, to develop the Gazan offshore gas wells, which would provide plenty of power for Gaza.
Why??… So there’s luxury in Doha for them, schitt for the Gaza kids, and they can blame Israel for everything.
The children of Gaza are trained by the adults to become what Hamas is Children’s song in Gaza: “Palestine is our country and the Jews are our dogs.”—
IMO opinion Hamas has never cared about children until the retribution for their own cowardly acts brought it to our attention. That doesn’t mean parents in general didn’t care about their children. Rid the country of Hamas and the hate filled teaching and the country could thrive. Sisi (Abdel Fattah El-Sisi) President of Egypt did that in Egypt, he cleaned out the terrorists and their radical teachers so the ordinary Muslim Egyptians and others could live their life in peace and prosperity.
IMO the leftist government of Israel caused Hamas to know they could attack and kill with impunity. Israel’s government did that by making gun ownership so onerous most Israelis simply went unarmed. Probably for the first time in Israel history were a majority of Israel’s citizens unarmed.
Weakness is provocative.
That being said, Hamas being filled with murderous and hate filled ideology was largely left alone to scheme and plot for far too long, as in Gaza.
This will end when Hamas ceases to be a credible threat to the average Israeli.
Dear Neil and Sundance, The way to solve the problem of Gazan children dying is to remove those who are responsible for their deaths, who put those children in harm’s way, and who are using those children as human shields and as propaganda. I am speaking about the murderous terror group Hamas. And if you don’t understand that, then there is not much hope for you
Kids have been considered disposable since abortion was widely adopted as a form of birth control/population control. Globohomoco revels in stacking up the little dead bodies, trading around the little orphaned survivors, and watching the rest grow up—if they do manage to grow up—into weaklings, robots, or monsters.
Strong kids from strong families, now THAT is scary.
Hamas claims 12,300 children are dead over the past five months. They also claimed 500 people were killed in a hospital “bombed” by Israel (it later turned out the casualties were only about 50 not 500 and the explosion was from a Palestinian rocket that fell short.)
Meanwhile there were approximately 88,000 babies killed by abortion each and every month of 2023 in the US, even after the Dobbs decision.
Now here is a truth teller.
Oliver spot on as usual….
I guess Neil Oliver doesn’t believe these children are being used as human shields. He also doesn’t acknowledge that Israel warned of the coming attacks allowing time to evacuate the innocent. Instead we need a cease fire without hostages first being released so Hamas can then rearm and continue in its quest to destroy Israel.
What a wonderful humanitarian you are!
You are told you must leave your home with your 3 children because we’re going to bomb it. You do not have a car. Your home is going to be destroyed so anything you want to keep or need to have for your children, you must carry. You have had little food or water for months so you are weak and the children are crying and hungry. Tell me how do you go? Where do you go when you know nobody anywhere else?
Real compassion (sarc) on the part of Israel to tell you before they bomb everything you own while starving you. And they tell you so they can say, “Well, we told them to leave.”
Belle….
The “human shield “ argument
is off the charts stupid that
people are using as their talking
point.
A parent who has no means
to remove their child from
harm.
Just call a child a “human shield “
and that makes it OK
to kill the child?
We have all seen parents who care
little for their children…absolutely
no supervision.
The people who use the “human
shield” argument would be the
ones who would see a toddler from
a parent like that playing in the
middle of the road…….
Speed up and run over the child
and kill it💁🤷♀️
And use the argument that
it was Ok because the parent
allowed the child to be in danger.😡
Or, use the argument that better
to run the child over and kill it
than have it grow up to be like
its stupid parent.
The depravity is off the charts.
I wonder if the people who are
regurgitating those talking points
will one day actually realize what
they are saying?
I would love nothing better
than to place them in a corner
on a chair and tell them to
actually THINK about what
they are saying.
May God have Mercy
on their Souls.
Sorry there isn’t a magic wand in their to give you the simple solution you crave. Welcome the the savagery of most of the ME.
THERE ARE NO GOOD ANSWERS WHEN DEALING WITH THE RELIGION OF DEATH.
Who put Hamas in charge of those people?
The Gazans, last and ONLY election, 2007.
I guess they should have done what Hamas did and provide no warning.
The Israelis had the Hamas plans for over a year. Jordan warned them several days in advance of what was planned. Egypt’s intelligence warned them 3 days in advance. No warning??? Mossad and US intelligence had no idea?? That is not even a good excuse.
Like a number of people worldwide, I’m wondering if this was a psyop. Pretend you don’t know what is going to happen, so you have the excuse to kill swaths of Palestinians and keep on killing them.
Israel has gone from having 1139 civilians killed – genocide and criminally wrong – to killing 30 times that and wounding another 70,000+. Hamas was horribly wrong and should be punished for their genocide – arrest them, try them, convict them and punish them. That is the rule of law. I am positive that every Hamas person could be identified. I am sure the leadership involved in this plan can be identified.
But at this point, Israel is horribly wrong. It is also genocide. I cannot condone what Hamas did, but I cannot condone Israeli actions and it will not bring them peace and security.
Peace will come only when Hamas is gone. Removing Hamas from the midst of “civilians” who mostly support the terror organization is not simple. You seem to imply that the Jews made up the rape, torture, mutilation, and abduction of their people, many of who were young women. What is it about Jews and the history of Israel that would lead you to believe such an abhorrent thing? What is it about Palestinians and Hamas and their history that leads you to believe their numbers? When the Muslim 9/11 terrorists brought down the Twin Towers and 3000 or so Americans died, were you spouting the same equivalence that the USA should limit the number of radical jihadists killed to only equate with the 3000 Americans who died that day? Was that an American psyop? Is it that you hold the Jews to a much higher standard than yourself when you expect them to absorb so much more suffering before they can respond, and even then, to respond lightly? I don’t understand.

Why don’t you study some REAL GENOCIDE before you hold court, oh righteous one.
The whole bug hoax is not going away, in fact the desire for true accountability is just getting stronger.
Way too many were hurt and that will never go away.
The spirited back and forth here in this thread re: Israel v Hamas calls to mind the earlier threads in which we’ve been reminded not to focus of whether republicans or democrats are right and think instead at who benefits from the conflict. Who benefits from war in the Middle East? Who are the real parties in interest, not whose bombs are actually killing whose children and who counts and reports accurately. As Americans (most of us here), what role if any did our own policies, weapons sales, intelligence services play.
