The Great "London-is-burning" Lie of July 19, 2022 ... conjured by the media

The following was written in 2022.  But, it is far more pertinent today, in light of the continuing hoax of the UN & Gavin Newsom ... as well as during the Biden-Harris Years ... which claim the world to be in a Climate Crisis.  There are over 60 climate-related discourses here, to prove the sky-is-falling claim to be an insult to a reasonable person's intelligence.  And they are supported with numerous pieces of evidence which, predictably enough, is known as "Evidentiary Support."  

In as much, if you don't at least look through the numerous pieces of evidence here, then you have zero right to speak on the subject.  Basing one's belief on anything ... by means of only one biomarker ... especially by one statistic that is taken out of context ... is the sign of someone easily persuaded and therefore easily duped.  

Of course, the rise in CO2 is the sole marker cited in doomsday diatribes.  Yet, the amount still is a mere trace amount in the atmosphere which is 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, 9% Argon, and a mere 0.044% CO2.  Moreover, CO2 has three alternating vibrational modes attached to it, one of which renders CO2 incapable of capturing Infrared Light.  This is why it was possible for there to have been a major ice age, while the CO2 count was 9 times higher than today.

And ironically enough, since March of 2025, the atmospheric CO2 count of Planet Earth declined by 3 parts per million.  Once again, from March 2025 to the end of November 2025, the CO2 count dropped by 3 ppm.  That was unexpected.  Very unexpected.  The assumption was that it was going to increase by 2 or 2 ppm.

Ironically enough, like a typical dictator, Al Gore refused to have videoed debates about his doomsday climate claims.  This is because he knows that he will lose the debate ... in the cross-examination.  

And of course, Attenborough was proven 100,000% wrong in him having stated that the weather of Planet Earth was stable for 1,000 years, until the invention of the combustible engine.  It was anything but that ... and lots of historic and statistical and archeological evidence exists to prove Attenborough to be nothing but a liar.  

In the last 1,000 years, there were droughts and historic storms, including one that rearranged a coastline in 1287.  There were also the resultant floods, along with glacier growth, heat waves, and more, all occurring when the CO2 level was as low as during the Roman Era.  So, in the words of Jackie Gleason (super famous TV host of the 1960s), "And away we go."

Let us begin with the various fire & incident frequency charts provided to the public by the London Fire Brigade.  Concerning Greater London's size, it encompasses an area of 610 square miles.  

Keep in mind that, during July of 2022, the media kept stating that the rise in atmospheric co2 was finally causing an out-of-control rise in Greater London fires.  Well, the opposite is true.

From the Year 2004 to the Year 2022, the annual number of London Area fires were cut in half, in comparison to the fire numbers ranging from 1969 to 2004. In fact, each individual year ... from 2004 to 2022 ... was 1/3 of what it was in 1976.  

Moreover, the year prior (2021) was the year of the least number of fires in the record-keeping history of Greater London.  Meanwhile, the Year 2022 had the fourth least number of fires in the Greater London area ... since the beginning of record-keeping there.  In fact, while the atmospheric co2 level was rising throughout the years 2004 to 2022, the number of Greater London fires continuously decreased.  Therefore, an elevation of co2 will NOT cause your city or town to dry-out & burn-up.  See for yourself.

In July of 2022, the media claimed that atmospheric co2 finally reached a tipping point.  In July of 2022, the same media began the countdown to the End of the World ... proverbially speaking.   On the 19th of that month, the London Area thermometers went above 100F.  In London, the official reading was 102F.  In a town located 11 miles west of London, the reading was 104F, for two hours only.

The claim was that co2 was saturating the atmosphere so badly that it was now causing London to dry-out and burn out-of-control.   The newscasters claimed that, on July 19th, the London Fire Brigade had its "most incidents" since the bombing of London, in WWII.  

The same media said that the London Area had the most fires in any one day, on July 19, 2022.  The truth is that July 19, 2022 wasn't anywhere close to that.  In comparison to any WWII air raid, the July 19th incidents was less than chump change.  Compared to the daily average of fires in 1976, the number of fires on July 19th was 52 fires LESS.  

Compared to the daily average of Greater London fires in 1970, 1975, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1994, 1995, 2000, 2001, 2003 and a few other years, the number of July 19th fires were 24 to 38 LESS.  At the very least, there were approximately 2,500 Greater London days that had more fires than did July 19th day.  Reporting July 19th as the worst day since a world war was like lighting a candle with one matchstick and claiming it to be a 5-alarm fire.

In the entire Year of 2022, there were 19,297 fires in the 607 sq mile area known as Greater London.  In 1976, there were over 60,000 fires in the exact same area. In 1989, 1990, 1995, and 2003 there were over 55,000 fires EACH YEAR, in the exact same Greater London region.   More important is the fact that, in every year from 1969 to 2005, there were at least 40,000 fires.  That amounts to 37 consecutive years when the yearly fire count was at least TWO TIMES MORE than it was in 2022.   This also amounts to an average of 164 fires per day during 1976 versus an average of 53 fires per day in 2022.

Now, July 19 was an average day in terms of "incidents."  The daily average for 2022 was 343 incidents per day.  In 2022, 47% of all Greater London incidents were false alarms; 59,415 of them.

On July 19, 2022, there were 362 incidents.   On that same day, there were 142 false alarms.  There were 112 fires on that day, and that number has an ironic twist to it.  This is because the daily average of fires from 1970 to 2004 were at least 109.  Thus, July 19, 2022 was an average day, when looking at the big picture. 

A complete London Fire Brigade Incident Record for July 19 can be found directly below, via 7 photo-copies.  You can do the statistics yourself.

https://www.bluemarblealbum.com/2024/05/July2022-official-greater-london-fire-stats.html

Let's review this correctly, without any sleight of hand con artistry:

Between 1970 and 2004, the 610 square mile region known as Greater London had between 109 to 164 fires PER DAY.  This translates into 60,000+ fires per year and 40,000 fires per year.  Then, in the Year 2009, yearly London fires decreased below 30,000.  Then, in 2014, yearly fires decreased to 20,000 per year.  So, between 2015 and 2022, Greater London had an average of between 41 to 55 DAILY fires.  Thus, it was an unconscionable lie to have stated that Greater London's climate had gotten out of control.  The opposite was true.

The number of London fires were literally cut in half, while co2 increased significantly in the atmosphere.   Thus, a courtroom lawyer could actually tell a jury that the rise in co2 caused a decrease in London fires.  Yet, the truth is that co2 remains at such a small atmospheric level that it can't affect the air, either for good or for bad.  The only greenhouse gas which holds influence is water vapor.  In fact, Cirrus clouds retain infrared light more effectively than does co2.  

The atmosphere is humongous.  Acres of plants, trees, weeds, and blades of grass are all tiny, in comparison.  CO2 drives the biosphere; not the atmosphere.  The other greenhouse gases ... other than water vapor ... are too small in quantity to drive any air mass greater than a laboratory experiment chamber.

Ther article below is "truncated."  It's only part of the whole.  The entire article can be found by clicking here:

"London fires drop by 64% in a decade, according to brigade"

 

Back to 2022

The pronounced decrease in Greater London fires occurred while the population of the area increased by 1,300,000 people.  Now, an increase in population brings with it an increased probability of fires.  However, despite the simultaneous increase in the London Area population and in the atmospheric CO2 level, Greater London achieved an eighteen-year-long streak of consistently decreased fire event numbers.  Thus, CO2 is not as powerful as the media claims it to be, in killing-off society.   The asininity of demonizing CO2 is that, without CO2, life on Earth ceases.  After all, CO2 is the activator of photosynthesis. 

At this point, keep in mind that the media in July of 2022 showed houses or small buildings on fire, as if CO2 caused spontaneous combustion throughout London.  "Chart #17" below is from the London Fire Brigade, and it mentions that "House fires in Greater London have reduced drastically since 1981."  This decrease occurred while co2 levels were rising and while the population of Greater London was rising by an additional 1.3 million people.

This proves that in no way did the constant rise of atmospheric co2 cause an increase in Greater London fires.  Thus, the 2022 London news reports were all scams.  It was one big false alarm.   In as much, let's view additional evidentiary support provided by the London Fire Brigade:

Above:  The stats of 2021.  That's last year.  Last year was the year of the LEAST NUMBER OF FIRES in the London Area, in all of London's recorded history.  In as much, 14,929 is much less than 40,000.

Most important is that the co2 level of 2021 was the exact same co2 level of 2022, minus an insignificant one and a half parts per million.  The exact same co2 level gave the 610 square mile London Vicinity its LOWEST AMOUNT of fires-per-year, ever since record keeping began.  Thus, we have 100,000% proof that the co2 level of 2022 did NOT cause London to catch on fire, as the media very falsely claimed, to its future legal detriment. 

Above are the stats for the Year 2020.  This is the year with the second LOWEST number of fires.  17,409 is also much less than 40,000.

Directly below are the stats for the Year 2022, as of October of that year.  The Year 2022 will be one of the lowest incident & fire years on record.  In fact, it thus far is the year with the least number of incidents, depending on the November & December stats.  But as far as goes its final tally for fires, that is projected to be about 18,000 to 19,000, if this chart (posted in November) includes the October fire statistics.  If the chart below only includes the stats up to September, then the projected sum total is 20,000 to 21,000 for the year.  This also is much less than the typical 40,000+ yearly fires that occurred between 1968 and 2004.

This was "as of September 2022."

 

 

This was 2022 in its entirely; the fourth lowest number of fires in its record-keeping history.  Take note that there were 59,415 false alarms in the same year.

Below is the Year 2009.  It's posted here to show you that other years had many more fires than did the Year 2022, in addition to what the 2014 London Fire Brigade graph showed.  The 29,591 fires of 2009 are much more than the 14,929 fires of 2021 and the 19,297 fires of 2022.

 

 

Below is the Year 2010, posted to show the same.   The 27,462 fires of 2010 are a whole lot more than the 14,929 fires of 2021 ... and the 19,297 fires of 2022.  Thus, there was no co2 saturation burning-up Greater London.  It was all a lie.

 

And of course, in order to show that there is no cherry picking going-on here, the Year 2011 is included.  Its fire numbers are also much higher than those of 2022, as well as 2021.  Thus, 2022 was NOT the tipping point in any capacity.  It was merely another year where the media once again lied to the public.

 

 

Many other years had averaged many more calls (incidents) per day than 2022 ... and 2011.  In fact, the Year 2009 had an average of 370 "incidents" (fire calls) per day.  After all, it had 134,379 incidents.  There has always been a high number of fire-calls ("incidents") in Greater London, in any one day.   There were 350 "incidents" throughout Greater London, in 2022.  The average daily incidents for the entire year of 2022 was 348.  That was typically average ... not a record-breaking day.

 

UK's 2022 crop yields also prove the London-is-burning-due-to-co2 alarm to be a false one.

Now, when you see a fire occurring near green grass and green leafage, the fire is not fueled by dried-out grass and leafage.  Moreover, being that the media claimed England to have been the victim of drought and heatwaves in the Summer of 2022, one would logically conclude that the 2022 harvests of the UK would be dismal crop failures.  Well, they turned out to be very healthy crop yields, thereby showing the July 2022 media members to be a cabal of sophomoric liars.  Observe:

No downhill sliding board here.  Steady crop yield pattern, with increases, since the Year 2000.

In 2022, the UK enjoyed an 8 1/2% increase in cereal grains.  It was simply that there was an approximate 1% less and a 1 1/2 % less moisture content in the harvested grains than average.  So, where is the great co2 disaster in Britain, during 2022.  The agricultural industry didn't see one, at all. 

None the less, wheat was up 11% and barley was up 6%.  The UK's main oilseed harvest was up by 39%, but the crop yield increase was only 17%, being that the UK used more farmland for planting its main oilseed crop.  In fact, the UK used 13% less farmland for oats, and the oats yield for 2022 was surmised (estimated) to be 10% less than last year.  Technically, this translates into a humble 3% increase for UK oat farmers, per acre. 

Conclusion:  There is no man-made-co2 driven climate catastrophe occurring in Greater London.  

Concerning the commercial media networks' claim that mankind has to aggressively rid the atmosphere of the industrial "carbon footprint," you need to understand the following facts:  The atmosphere is made of [1] 78% carbon-free Nitrogen, [2] 21% carbon-free Oxygen, [3] 0.93% carbon-free Argon.  Thus, the Earth's atmosphere is already at least 99.93% carbon-free.  

 

Know that the concentration of co2 in the atmosphere is so low that, for every 2,398 molecules in the sky, only one of them is co2.  One more time:  Outside in the sky, there is 1 and only 1 co2 molecule for every 2,398 molecules out there.  Round it off to 1 co2 molecule for every 2,400 molecules in the atmosphere. 

 

China, India, & Indonesia are the present concerns:  Not London.

 

The only valid present concern is whether the construction of multiple Chinese, Indian, & Indonesia coal power plants will result in the aggressive rise in atmospheric co2, or will there be carbon capture technology provided with each new coal plant.  An aggressive rate of rise changes the picture, moderately for the present --- but significantly for the distance future, as in the next century.

 

At present, there's not an immediate hysteric concern.  No scientist publicly claimed that the world is coming to an end, due to "greenhouse gases" in twelves or in 112 years.  However, the recent history of Beijing does not give humanity much trust in the ruling political political of today's China, not to mention the ruling parties of India & Indonesia.  So, we cringe, wondering what will become of the atmosphere in the decades to come.  

 

This is why hoaxes like the London one have to be ejected from society's concerns.  China, India, & Indonesia are what count.  Not London and not healthy Australia ... and not the American Southwest which got its share of monsoon rains in recent years.  Moreover, there is the issue with Mercury and Sulfur Dioxide when it comes to coal use.  That must be addressed more so.  BTW, refusing to go to high school in Sweden isn't going to help, at all.

Qualifying Note:  The Sulfur Hexaflouride issue is the other important concern at present.  That one can still be proverbially nipped at the bud, though.  However, you don't jag around with something like Sulfur Hexaflouride.  You cut to the chase and get the task done.  The task is finding its substitute.   It's all too tempting for industry not to do so.

We proceed to 1901, 121 years before the July 2022 day placed under amplified attention by the media.  July 19, 2022 was presented as the unprecedented beginning of the End of the World.  The media claimed that it was a day unprecedented in the history of England.  They lied.  The truth is the climate is CYCLICAL --- unless something.   In as much, the Year 2022 was little more than the Year of the Great Deja Vu ... of 1922.  Enough newspaper photocopies on that year are already posted at thr Blue Mrble Album.  We'll go back further, to 1901, so that you can see that "this" has all been seen and experienced before, time after time.

Let's sail over to Italy, to see how it was doing in August of 1901.

It is often stated that "history repeats itself."  Well, that is the historically proven case, concerning Climate History.  And remember, in 1901 the co2 level was a mere 296 parts per million.  The co2 count was 121 ppm LESS than today.  It was 29% LOWER than today.  Yet, sweltering heat & much more dry drought-inducing heat occurred and reoccurred throughout the first four decades of the 20th Century than today.  This was when the co2 level was much lower than today.  

 In 2014, NASA declared that the worst drought year in the past 1,000 years was 1934.  The co2 level at he time was 309 ppm.  That's 108 ppm LOWER than today.  Yet, according to the Al Gore theory, 2020, 2021, and 2022 should have been the worst drought years.  Well, contrary to what the media claimed, Arizona & Nevada have been getting yearly monsoon rains.  This neglect of reporting the truth is the result of media's managers wanting to deceive you into thinking that we are trapped in a deadly circle of Dante's Inferno.  The truth is that we are doing nothing more than repeating history in a cyclical fashion.

In caveman days, the co2 level was 260 ppm.   And during recent heated eras, such as the Roman Warm Period & the Medieval Warm Period, co2 was only 280 ppm.  Today, atmospheric co2 is 421 ppm, and today's heat is quit  only a repeat performance of the past.  The two 1901 articles above are a small sample of the hundreds of pieces of documentary evidence which show that a rise in temperature is not dependent upon a rise in co2.  Rather, according to ice core analysis, a rise in temperature historically came first, resulting in added evaporation of ocean water and the simultaneous emission of additional co2 into the atmosphere.

Climate is a pattern --- not a week-long event or even a month-long event.  July 18th & 19th were the the result of a dry air mass from Northern Africa.   And yes, there were a couple weeks of no rain --- in July, when such a thing is likely to happen.  However, after July 19th, everything instantly went back to normal.  The "back-to-normal" part is the climate.  

To call July 2022 "unprecedented" makes knowledgeable people roll their eyes and say, "Give me a break, and cut it out with the theatrics."  After all, there was such a thing as the Great Fire of London in 1666, along with ~the Great Fire of Tooley Street, 1861, ~the Burning of the Parliament, aka the Palace of Westminster (which was a complex of buildings), 1834, ~the Whitehall Palace Fire, 1698, ~the London Bridge Area Fire, 1633, the first London Bridge Fire, 1135, ~the Southwark Fire of 1212, ~the Great Fire of 1087, ~the Great Fire of Aldgate which burned all the way to Ludgate and which included St. Paul's Cathedral, 961, ~the Fire of 120 AD, when the Romans ruled.  

And of course, there were the fires caused by Boudicca's rage.  Those were not atmospheric science issues.  In fact, the Great Fire of 120 AD could have been an act of war, as well.  None the less, calling the July 2022 London fires unprecedented invalidates a journalist, as much as does calling July 2022 a co2 cataclysm.  After all, the rise in co2 for the last 19 years was accompanied by a major decrease in London fires.

Now, Planet Earth has had atmospheric co2 at  levels 9 times and even 16 times HIGHER than today.  In fact, during the height of atmospheric co2, the Cambrian Explosion occurred, resulting in the emergence of multi-celled sea life.  And later in history, when atmospheric co2 was 9 times higher than today, the Ordovician Ice Age was in progress.  This assertion, of course, is all a matter of "ice-core proxy evidence," inter alia. --- (Inter alia means, "and other things.")  Incidentally, the "inter alia" included the stoma-count of fossilized leaves.  Stoma are openings in the leaves, where co2 is absorbed.

 

 Anyway, London had two back-to-back heat days, one week apart.  The first week comprised two 87 degree Fahrenheit days.  One week later, there was a 99 degree Fahrenheit day, followed by a 103 degree Fahrenheit day.  After the 103 Fahrenheit day of July 19, the temps immediately went back to normal.  But, the propaganda machines had a field day with Britain's sole 100+  Fahrenheit day.  Oh, it was Armageddon 3.0, the Apocalypse 4.0, and the End of the World, squared & cubed.

Needless to say,  it was everybody's fault, for riding in motor vehicles and keeping warm in the Wintertime, as well as using evil evil air conditioners in the Summertime. 

Below is the London Temperature Calendar, for July 2022.  Here's the London that was presented by the media as an overly heated inferno.  Show me where this super oppressive, long-term, human-body-killing heat is, in the London Summer of 2022.  Yes, there are a couple of weeks of temperature anomalies, in London.  But, there was nothing that resulted in the death phrases "may have caused" and "likely to have caused."  This was followed by a ridiculous number Paris experienced in 1976 & 2003.

And of course, there was so much misinformative hype about Paris in July of 2022 that it insults the intelligence.  Those news articles use the phrases, "likely to have caused" and "may have caused" a certain number of deaths that equaled the deaths suffered by Britain, during the first day of the Battle of the Somme.  None the less, deadly heatwaves, deadly droughts, deadly storms, deadly floods, deadly pestilence, deadly algae blooms, hurricanes, blizzards, cold snaps, Yellow Sky days, ice stacking, glacier growths, glacier meltdowns, etc, etc, etc.  It all happened throughout the past 700 years.  

The sophomorically trained and sophomorically educated journalists look for that one tipping point moment.   Climate is an habitual trend ... NOT a one-day, two-day or even two-week event.  Here, see the temperatures of July 2022 yourself.

The actual Great London Fire Brigade Incidents Report of July 19, 2022, showing that the media lied to humanity, as usual.

Prelim Note: Photocopies of the official July 19, 2022 London Fire Brigade's Incident Report are posted below, at the end of this post.  Also posted within this post are other official London Fire Brigade statistical products that were published for public view.   Such a conveyance of information is known as "public relations."

Let's review another insult to the intelligence, compliments of the modern commercial media.  July 19, 2022 was the day.  A dry wind had been in England from Africa.  Such a thing will reduce humidity considerably ... but only temporarily.   Also, the high temp of the day was over 100F.  Eleven miles from London, for two hours, the temperature was 104F.   Elsewhere nearby, it was 102F.

The day prior, it was an equally rare 98F.  Even the week prior had a few days in the mid-80s Fahrenheit, for the high of each day.  Other than that, England had no dreadful climate condition.  It was far from Paris during its 1911 heatwave, its 1976 heatwave, and its 2003 heatwave, as well as Paris' 2022 heatwave.  None the less, the media had to hyper-exaggerate the weather in London, telling the world that life-given co2 was now burning down London.  The actual claim was that the rise in co2 caused London area wooden structures and wooded areas to be easily vulnerable to igniting and burning.

So, the media showed the video of a regular, ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill fires.  The narrator was mentioning that that fire was ignited because the atmospheric co2 level had risen to an intolerable level.  It was said that the London Fire Brigade (the LFB) had its most "incidents" since World War II. It was said that the fire brigade was sooooo overwhelmed that it couldn't keep-up with all the calls made to its dispatcher offices.

The bottom line ... the conclusion ... was that the world had now reached a tipping point, and that the number of fires throughout the 607 square mile terrain called Greater London would keep increasing, month by month ... and year by year ... until complete catastrophe would prevail.

Now for the truth:  You need to begin with the statistical graph below, produced and published by the London Fire Brigade, itself.  It shows that, as of the Year 2014, the yearly number of fires which occurred in Greater London decreased by more than 50%.  Greater London fires were cut in half.  This, alone, invalidates the July 2022 doomsday claim of media reporters who are apparently far too lazy to do a little homework, before opening their mouths and causing emotional trauma amongst schoolchildren, their moms, and people who never do any true fact-checking.

Now, record-keeping of the fire calls to the Greater London Fire Brigade ... and the results of those phone calls ... began in 1966.  As you can see in the graph below, from 1970 to 2005, there were at least 40,000 fires per year in the 607 square miles area called Greater London.  In 1976, there were over 60,000 fires.  And in the Years 1970, 1979, 1983, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1995, 2001, and 2003, there were more than 50,000 fires per year in Greater London.

In contrast, in the Year 2022, when the media claimed that London was now being overwhelming with increasing fires, there were only 19,298 fires in Greater London.  More impactfully is the fact that, in the Year 2021, there were the LEAST NUMBER OF FIRES in any one year since Greater London record-keeping began.  In 2021, there were 14,929 fires.  

So, let us compare:  60,000+ fires in 1976 vs 14,929 fires in 2021.  Moreover, 50,000+ fires per year in 1970, 1984, 1990, 1995, 2001, and 2003 VERSUS 19,298 fires in 2022.

Now, compare the fire states in the incident record below to the graph above.  A lot less fires during the year when the mainstream media very falsely claimed that Great London fires were now on the rise, due to co2.  Fires in each year of the 2010s & 2020s had become half of what they were in the 20th Century.  Also take note that, in 2022, there were 59,415 false alarms.

For the record, below is the year with the least number of Greater London fires, namely 2021.  In addition, there were 53,486 false alarms in 2021.  Thus, the July 2022 news reports about London catching on fire in great numbers was a complete falsehood.

Below:  And of course, we need to contrast 2021 & 2021 with an yearly year.  Well, the earliest available is 2009.  There were more incidents and fires in 2009.  There were also 62,991 false alarms in 2009.

Below:  The LFB officially reported that house fires have reduced "drastically" since 1981.  Thus, the 2022 claim that co2 levels reached a tipping point that caused London fires to increase is a complete lie.

Below is yet another publication of the London Fire Brigade which reported that yearly fires between 2010 to 2016 were much lower than those which transpired from 1970 to 2005.  The yearly fires from 2017 to 2023 have even been lower in number.   This also shows that July 2022 media to have been a gang of liars, in asserting doomsday claims that were the opposite of the doomsday reports.

Now for the temperature record of July 2023, one year later.  If co2 caused Greater London to reach a tipping point, then the temperatures of this past July have been alarmingly high.  Below is the July report from the world-renown Weather Channel.  Look and see for yourself if the July 2023 were a month of blazing heat or a month of moderate and quite tolerable temps.

Directly Below:  The Month of July 2023 temperature report, by the equally renown Accuweather Corporation.

Added note: As far as goes the Summer of 2024, there was one day where the temperature reached 90F.  One 90 degree day is NOT the end of the world ... nor a climate crisis ... nor global boiling.

Below:  The actual July 19, 2022 London Fire Brigade Incident Report in detail.  Compare the statistical numbers of this day to those within the Years 1970 to 2005.  You will realize that in no way was July 19, 2022 the day of the most incidents or fires since WWII.  In fact, count all of the FALSE ALARMS for that one day.  You will end up counting 142 ... for only one day.  Even at that, the number 142 is not far away from the usual daily number of false alarms ... the average ... the median ... the expected.

 

 

In re: The "Let's give 'em 1789" poster.

Update:   A very interesting thing happened.  Shortly after I published this "1789 Post," the "Let's give them 1789" poster outside was taken down.  And I spoke to NO ONE about this topic, anywhere in town.   Mighty coincidence.

                                           

If you have been keeping track in any capacity, you know that I live in the college section of the City of Pittsburgh ... in between the Pitt campus, the Carnegie-Mellon campus, and the Carlow campus ... as well as living a short drive away from Chatham, Point Park, and Duquesne Universities, as well as Allegheny County Community College.  

And of course, I live in the Jewish section of Pittsburgh, three blocks away from the Tree of Life Synagogue which underwent an antisemitic massacre in 2018, while I was stationed in the Chicago Area.  

All of this means that I live in the area where political activism and political opinions are made visually known.  Well, there is a certain poster that circulated this year which states:

They want 1939.

Let's give them 1789.

Well, that poster omitted the final line to its logical conclusion which happens to be:

                And it will yield for us Napoleon 1799.

The Assessment of it All

Hey.  Why should I care?  History has shown humanity that us Italians make for some pretty exciting emperors, where there's never a dull moment.  And some of those Italian emperors were pretty sharp dressers, too.  

All of this will simply be History Repeating Itself.  It will simply be Nature balancing itself out, again.   Of course, if you want to know the future, then study history.  Start with the Italians.  There is A LOT of history with Italians, for sure, even with Italians in America.  

To think:  The French got rid of a French king in exchange for an Italian Emperor.  Good choice.   Us Italians are just too fun to leave behind.   After all, Italians are the inventors of the various Ferrari models, the Lamborghini, the Pagani Zonda, and the Maserati ...

... as well as the barometer, the thermometer, the Intel 4004 Microprocessor, the hydrofoil, eyeglasses, the piano, the Jacuzzi, the 1994 version of the Touchpad, the expresso machine, etc., etc., etc.  

In addition to the Italian Napoleon Buonaparte

Italians also gave the world Vinny Testaverde,  Vince Ferragamo,  Joe Flacco,  Joe DiMaggio,  Joe Pesci,  Joe Montana (who was part Irish),  Ed Marinaro,   Dan Marino  (who was part Polish),  Leonardo Da Vinci,  Leonardo Di Caprio (who is part German),  Leonardo Fibonacci,  Director Franco Zeffirelli,  Nobel Prize Economist Franco Modigliani,  Pittsburgh Steeler Franco Harris (who was part African),  as well as Tony Lazzeri,  Tony LaRussa (who is part Spanish),  and Phil Rizzuto.

There was/is also Yogi Berra, but not Yogi Bear, as well as Sylvester Stallone, but not Sylvester the Cat. 

Then, there is Susan Sarandon,  Susan Lucci,  Jennifer Aniston (who is part Greek),  Lindsay Lohan (who is part Irish),  Robert DeNiro (who is also part Irish), John Travolta (who is also part Irish),  Gwen Stefani (who is also part Irish) and Sofia Scicolone, also known as Sophia Loren.  

There was also Tony Bennett, and there is Stefani Germanotta (aka Lady Gaga, who is 75% Italian and 25% of the Entire Map of Western Europe, almost.)  

It's also important to note that Tiananmen Tim Walz is NOT Italian in any capacity.  That's a relief.  However, he is an embarrassment to Swedes and Germans, as if they really care.  At this point in time, Germans and Swedes realize that those in charge of their nations didn't know what they were doing and needed a relief pitcher long ago.

For those unaware, Napoleon was native to the Italian Island of Corsica

In 19th Century Italy, there used to be a pun which went as follows:  E vero che tutti i Franchesi sono burgiardi?  The answer was:  Non. Ma Buonaparte.  Translated, it went: Is it true that all Frenchman are liars?  ANS: No, but a good part are.  A good part is a pun of Buonaparte.  Thus, the sarcastic answer was, No.  Only Napoleon is a liar.

The point here is that it didn't register in the minds of Italians that Napoleon was Italian.  After all, Corsica IS Italian.  Sicily IS Italian.  And Sardinia is an exceptional part of Italian where secrets to health are to be found.  This is due to Sardinian longevity.

BTW, the name, Napoleon, referred to the Greek City of NAPLES.  Southern Italy was once Greco Magna ... Greater Greece.   I even have Greek DNA, in addition to Italian and Irish, as well as Albanian DNA ... and a dash of DNA from Russian-Georgia which I think is fascinating.

And yes, I admit that Frank Sinatra was overrated, as was Muzio Clemente.  However, Vivaldi was NOT that overrated ... only a little overrated.  

Furthermore, Antonio Salieri was NOT the mortal nemesis of Mozart.  That whole thing was a myth and a half.  Salieri was well positioned in Baroque Society.  No problemo with his status.

Oh, and we Italians invented the Renaissance, too.  So, we can do it again.   Lots of fun.  Lots of fun.

So, arrivederci, baby.  See you after your 1789 Party, when someone is going to have to pick up all the broken pieces & shattered lives you leave behind.  

The problem with you (in the plural) is that, when you go on your rampages, you end up killing yourselves.  Or or or, you end up getting yourselves killed.  Either way is the case with yous guys out there in Hate Land.  Maybe all of that tattoo ink leached into your brains.

For now, have a nice day ... or evening ... or sunset ... or sunrise ... or six months of darkness, if you're in Antarctica and it's Summer in North America.

Fatal Errors & Fatal Destinies

Gettysburg ... © Patrick Anthony Pontillo 

Before all else, it needs to be mentioned that Abraham Lincoln's greatest mistake was that of not prosecuting Jefferson Davis for treason.  After all, Davis was the one who had a real Insurrection for consecutive years, unlike Trump who did say "peacefully and patriotically," on January 6th.  Meanwhile, CNN spent years never airing that segment of his Jan 6th speech. 

In contrast Jefferson Davis had Southern generals and Southern cavalrymen, as well as Southern artillery units repeatedly killing Union soldiers.  He had the REAL INSURRECTION.  The leniency granted to Davis by Lincoln lead to Abraham's early death, because it emboldened Lincoln's enemies.

As far as goes President D.J. Trump

Donald Trump's fatal error in 2017 was that of not greenlighting the prosecution of Hillary Clinton, for the things already revealed about her in 2016 ... by Comey, on national television.  That would have prevented the blatantly ridiculous Russia Collusion Hoax, concerning an election which followed the same statistical pattern as did the elections of 2004, 2008, and 2012, thereby showing no deviation in trend, and therefore no signs of collusion, occurred in 2016.

As far as goes Donald Trump's mistake of 2025, it was him not greenlighting Israel to permanently shut-up Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and send him to Bye-Bye City.  This would have spared humanity from an obsessed terrorist set on killing and killing and killing some more.  

It's very simple.  When you kill the killer, the killing stops, and Ali was set on killing every single Jew on Earth, BECAUSE the Quran and the Hadith claims that God ordered the Muslims to go out and kill every Jew on Earth.  This included the killing of Jewish infants who are incapable of committing any crime.

That Iranian guy was targeting civilians for death.  He has also targeted Donald Trump for death.  In fact, a head of state calling for the assassination of another head of state is an Act of War. That Iranian guy has got to go ... to Bye-Bye City.  In as much, give Persia back to the Persians ... which was taken from the Persians in 1925, by Southern Russian Cossacks who changed the name of Persia to Iran.  

Iran had the power of a pin cushion in 2025, losing its own air superiority to a much smaller Israel in a matter of days.  Iran was at the mercy of Israel and the United States.  Yet, Trump had mercy on the Merciless One of Iran who turned out to be an ingrate.

The Head Terrorist of Iran claimed victory over two of the most proficient military forces on Planet Earth.  Those two military entities could have easily turned all of Tehran into rubble ... or into a facsimile of the craters of the Moon.  Yet, the Head Iranian Terrorist had to claim victory, instead of thanking Donald Trump for his mercy.

As far as goes the Kamala Harris who has too many idiocies to enumerate, there was her suddenly pretending to be the pro-Southern-Wall champion while she simultaneously claimed Trump to be anti-wall.  Well, there were several videos on Kamala condemning the idea of the wall, even to the point of calling it a vanity.  

Of course she claimed that Trump only built 52 miles of it.  Try 458 miles plus 206 miles.  See below, for the specifics of the matter presently deceitfully by the Ever-Lying Kamala Harris: 

Also needed to be stated is this:  The greatest farce in the 2024 Harris Campaign was an endorsement letter allegedly signed by 82 American Nobel Prize winners, 23 of whom were allegedly economic laureates.

The opening irony here is that the endorsement letter was being signed very shortly before the 2024 election ... on Oct 24.  This means that Kamala had already squandered the vast majority of her 1.5 BILLION DOLLAR campaign treasure chest.  She was proving herself to be an irresponsible fiscal airhead.  Yet, Nobel Prize winners were praising the irresponsible spendthrift from California.  That made their credibility evaporate, as soon as the news of Kamala's financial incompetency became public knowledge.

Killer Kamala

Moreover, Bidenomics was killing the working poor, while it put constant grief on the working middle-class.  After all, while Kamala Harris possessed senatorial tie-breaker power ... and while she was able to prevent two disastrous senate bills from passing ... the US ended up undergoing its highest inflation rate in 40 years ... because of those two senatorial tie-breaker votes.  Kamala killed us.

American Gasoline was at its highest average price ever, under Biden-Harris.  In 2022, the price jacked-upward to the tune of $5.07.  Crude oil was near the record high mark, too.  Yet, Nobel Prize winners were damning Trump, while praising Kamala, despite the financial disasters of 2022, 2023, and 2024 that Kamala could have prevented.

Now, Kamala's "border policy" ... which was soundly condemned in July 2024's House Resolution 1371 ... was praised by the 82 Nobel Prize winners.  Yet, as far as went Kamala Harris' border policy, the House of Reps cited the documented statistic that 400,000+ unvetted & illegal aliens were flown into (or throughout) the United States ... at taxpayer expense ... via Kamala Harris and her "abuse of parole programs."

A record 31,077 Chinese citizens were encountered at the Southern Border, and it must be remembered that the distance between El Paso Texas and Beijing China is 6,773 MILES ... or 5,887 NAUTICAL MILES.  The Chinese "nationals" did not walk from China to Mexico.  Moreover, the Chinese gate crashers were often observed as military healthy, military aged males traveling without a spouse or children.  It looked more like a pre-invasion airborne unit's air drop than it looked like immigrants passing through.

The Biden Border Crisis cost the United States approximately $150.7 billion yearly, according to the House Budget Committee.   This amounted to it costing each individual taxpayer $1,156 per year . . . for unvetted illegal immigrants who did not wait their turn in line ... and who did not prove that they were safe for society.

https://budget.house.gov/press-release/the-cost-of-the-border-crisis-1507-billion-and-counting

Apparently 82 Nobel Prize recipients are okay with Rape & Murder, as well as national bankruptcy.  They obviously didn't care about Laken Riley and similar victims.  In my opinion, Kamala and the rest of the TV-viewed democrats saw these unvetted aliens as future registered democrat party voters who would keep the Dems in power for 12 to 24 years.  They saw these unvetted immigrants as their Voter Base.

As a quick note,  Tim Walz said that the democrat party power would last for 40 years.  Now, that was a fantasyland exaggeration.  Due to the Democrat Party's proven incompetency and wildly perverted goals, the Democrat Party Stranglehold on Power would not have gone past 12 years.  And then, America would have acted as if it were Liberation Day in Paris, 1944.  It would have been a lot like going back into time.

As a further example of the Biden/Harris ineptitude, in May of 2024 there were 170,723 illegal immigrant encounters made at the Southern Border.  Yet, Kamala was video-recorded as having said that the border is closed ... and safe.  She lied as usual.

Kamala:  Lowest Poll Numbers in NBC history

The 82 Nobel Prize laureates also ignored ... or didn't even know about ... the fact that, in June of 2023, Kamala received the lowest approval rating in the history of the NBC vice presidential approval rating poll.

The suspicion here is that the Nobel Prize winners didn't read the final letter ... or the full letter.  At present, 82 Nobel laureates quickly lost their credibility.  Their prestige plummeted to nothing, especially concerning those 23 economic laureates.  This is due to Kamala's irresponsible campaign spending, and the surprisingly healthy state of the June 2025 American stock market indices under Donald Trump.  Eighty-two laureates chose the wrong horse in this race.

They did not realize how successful the Trump game plan could become.  They did not take into account that Donald Trump changed a metropolitan skyline or two, while Kamala did no such thing.  They didn't take into account that Donald Trump had a long history of creating numerous private sector jobs, while Kamala created zero of them.   Donald Trump was tried & tested.  Kamala was not.  Plus, the first Trump term had a number of economic successes.

Trump's biggest accomplishment in his first term was that of preventing all of the Covid-related government checks from creating a disastrous amount of Demand Pull Inflation, like the Biden Payouts did during the start of the Biden Administration.  There is a trick to doing this.   Needed are Congressional incentives.

The trick is that of turning a lot of M1 into M2.  You do such a thing by enticing Americans into purchasing CD's, IRA's, treasury bonds and the such.

Thus, the Number 1 rule when inflation strikes is to turn M1 into M2 in mass quantities thereof.  Go and look at the Money Supply graph and/or chart of 2020 ... of the COVID months.  The Biden People were not smart enough to do the same thing in 2021 & 2022.  The Biden People were incompetent.  Injurious.  An affront to humanity.

Directly below is a link to a copy of House Resolution 1371.  It's not a long text, at all:

See:   https://www.congress.gov/118/bills/hres1371/BILLS-118hres1371eh.pdf

One question is this:  Were the 82 Nobel laureates paid any money to endorse Harris?  Were they promised to be given some sort of economic or political kickback by Harris ... such as large government grants ... if they were to endorse a Kamala Harris who had zero macro-economic successes in her life?

Was there some type of "de facto" & pernicious bribery occurring in October of 2024, when the internal polls were showing that Kamala was going to come up short in the upcoming November election?

Well, there was Kamala bribing the black male into voting for her, as she promised "forgivable loans" to blacks.  That promise happened to have been racist and unconstitutional.  It violated the Code of Equal Opportunity.  It created discrimination.  It showed that Kamala does think things out.  It showed that she really is an airhead.

Furthermore, keep in mind that, on November 2nd, it was reported that Kamala "leapfrogged" Donald Trump in Iowa and was going to win that state by 3.4%.  Well, Trump ended up winning IOWA by a margin of 13.2%, to the tune of 55.7% to 42.5%.

There was dishonesty occurring shortly before election day, and the endorsement of the 82 laureates occurred a mere 12 days before the election.  No one had the time to test those laureates for cracks and for misunderstandings in their endorsement of a Kamala Harris who never proved herself economically.

When it came to economics, Kamala proved herself to be clueless.  Working class Americans paid for her incompetency.  Food prices under Kamala & Joe were ridiculously high and they have yet to decrease to PRE-Biden numbers.  Yet, Kamala went about, giggling away ... or cackling ... or whatever you call it ... like a happy-go-lucky-simpleton.  Meanwhile, millions of Americans were in a grind, because of Kamala, the senatorial tie-breaker.

Historic Anniversary ... Tragic Anniversary

Last week, on June 28th, there was the anniversary of the most consequential assassination in human history.  The June 28th, 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand triggered World War 1 which would, in turn, trigger the vengeful World War II.  More specifically, it would be the imbalanced Treaty of Versailles that would trigger the resentment which would trigger World War II.

Gavrilo Princip ... the 23 year old 1914 assassin ... was a part of a six-man assassin squad.  Five of those assassins were members of a student revolutionary group which would eventually be called, the Young Bosnians.  They traveled through a network of safe houses where weaponry would be provided ... even planted ... on the path to the Austrian-Hungarian emperor.

It was a planned assassination, where college-aged youths were recruited to do the dirty work of a secret military society founded in 1911, by Serbian officers.  This concept of recruiting propagandized youth to do violence for rich people sitting behind the scenes sounds very familiar and equally current.   How many "protestors" were recently paid to show up at protests that blocked streets, underwent vandalism, resulted in fires, and didn't have permits attached to the protests?

Likewise, Thomas Matthew Crooks was only 20 years of age, when he came an inch or so away from murdering Donald Trump and triggering what was to be guaranteed a civil war that would have left the very lazy and unskilled democrats crying for help.

Ironically, a successful assassination of Donald Trump would not have guaranteed a victory for the overly airheaded anti-Catholic Kamala Harris.  Kamala would have been seen as a person cheating her way into the White House, BECAUSE of the derelict & buffoonish disorganization of the Secret Service and Pennsylvania State Police, on July 13th, 2024.

That assassination would have been seen as a "setup," and JD Vance (or whoever would have picked-up the flag of a fallen comrade) would have been seen as a Republican candidate determined to operate a memorial presidency, where all of Trump's policies would be faithfully followed.

In as much, he who fails to learn from the mistakes made in history are condemned to repeat them.  So, how about you dorko dweeb-en-heimers out there whose ears stick out like Alfred E Neumann's shut up about putting a bullet through Donald Trump's head?  In fact, shut up & grow up.

How would you like it, if a crew of well-dressed Sicilians surrounded you in the basement of a reception hall, and started doing batting practice on your head with 36 inch-long Louisville Sluggers?  You wouldn't like it very much, and you would soon find yourself rising from your body, followed by you being surrounded by a few ... and then by a million ... spiritual serpents engulfing you and turning your habitat into what is traditionally called, Hell.

As a historic note:  It was not until two days after the Butler assassination attempt that JD Vance was officially nominated & approved as the 2024 vice presidential candidate.  Someone wanted to make sure that Donald Trump would never make it to the convention.

There is a mystery about Crooks and the Butler roof.  It was a metal roof, and it was hot.  I have years of construction experience and know the pain of making contact with asphalt roofs in 91F weather.  How did Crooks ignore the pain of a heated metal roof, while making a nearly perfect shot?

If he were on a pain-killer drug, then how did he come so close to making a bull's eye, in his assassination attempt?  Was he so psyched-up that he didn't care about this pain?  And if so, who psychologically brainwashed him into making him believe that Donald Trump was the most evil man in the world who just had to be killed ASAP?

The Youth need to realize that, when MSNBC is damning Trump, proof that their anchors and commentators are lying exists in the fact that they do not invite Donald into the TV studio to defend himself.  There is no point and counterpoint.  There is no observance of the FCC Fairness Doctrine, when it comes to MSNBC.  It's all one-sided, and that is the Nazi Way.  Ironically, the Fairness Doctrine was repealed by none other than ... Ronald Reagan, in 1987.

Activists who advocate assassinating a president who is dedicated to protecting his citizens never go to the place of Divine Transformation traditionally called, Heaven.  They go to Hell, because they are a living Hell ... namely, annoying, irksome, disrespectful, and outright vicious.

Concerning you nerdo dork types who carry Alfred E Neumann ears out there, there are millions of men who would be more than willing to show you how manly you are not, just to shut you up.  After all, each one of you is an annoying little twit.

It's interesting how a former high school nerdo geek who could not endure one morning of football camp talks all so tough.  Zero humility there, even though such a loud mouth never did an Oklahoma drill or even hit a sled during camp.  But, he's a Mr Tough Guy whose gonna see to it that Donald Trump gets a bullet in his head.  Sure thing, Mr Macho.

It's interesting how those dweeby high school types who were always the first ones knocked out of the dodge ball court talk up a real tough game.  They're like that 86 year old Jihad Joe in Iran who has zero right to the throne of Persia, in the first place ... and who then claimed that he defeated the United States and Israel, despite the fact that he had relatively few anti-aircraft batteries remaining ... and despite the ALLEGATION that 30 of his generals and 11 of his nuclear scientists were killed by Israeli air force personnel, during the 12 Day War.  See for yourself:

Above is a copy of an actual World War I poster.  In 1925, Persia then fell to Russian Cossacks and became "Iran."  For those of you whose brains melted in the American public school system, the poster above shows a reason why Persia fell, in addition  to the Ottoman Empire falling after WWI.  The Ottoman Empire officially fell in 1918.
