BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. A THIRD TRUTH SUMMIT - with a twist. But as for the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth ... I MUST ADMIT THERE WAS A MAJOR SILENCE.
I’ve noticed recently, when I mentioned anything less than wonderful about Islam, that I tended to get 2 sharply different responses. There was strong agreement from some people. And there was what I call THE BIG BUT from other people: BUT I know a nice Muslim, BUT they’re not all like that, BUT there are nasty passages in the Old Testament, BUT BUT BUT. My sense: the difference came from whether people had gone down the Islam rabbit hole - just as there is a huge difference between people who have, and have not, gone down the plandemic rabbit hole.
That brings me to my BIG ANNOUNCEMENT - a THIRD TRUTH SUMMIT, with a twist.
THE TWIST. I won’t be doing many new interviews, or exploring many different rabbit holes (plandemic, forest fires, mind control, economy). Instead I am returning to the first truth interviews I did - in this case with major figures in the exploration of Islam, including Bill Warner. Mark Durie. Robert Spencer - the equivalent, perhaps, of Reiner, Mike Yeadon and Peter McCullough.
Yes, there will again be information. But, as with the 2 Truth Summits from 2023, a big focus will be the people:
- who are they,
- how did they get to be as they are,
- how did their interests develop,
- what have they found,
- what keeps them doing.
But the personal isn’t enough. So, as with the other Truth Summits, I’ll also be providing information.

WHY THE ATTENTION TO ISLAM? My sense is that this is one important part of the puzzle.

WHEN WILL THIS TAKE PLACE? The tentative start date is Monday, March 11.

By the way, this is the first rabbit hole I felt pulled into. I’ve had a lifelong passion for human rights and freedoms, and justice in general. But before exploring Islam, I had never experienced such a divide between the mainstream story and what most people around me adamantly believed.
I’ve always found it easy to be outside a majority viewpoint. I was, for instance, for women’s equality when women were not even allowed to be bus drivers in Canada or the US, let alone commercial airplane pilots - when, in Canada, women were fired from flight attendant positions at 33 while people would have been shocked at any similar restriction for men.
But there was something different about what I came up against in 2006. Up to then, I was on the side of greater rights and freedoms - and much of the mainstream media was with me. Now rights and freedoms - like freedom of speech, as well as critical thinking skills - were being taken away, and much of the mainstream media was against me.
I was faced with 2 increasing taboos:
One, a taboo on thinking instilled in my students, in college after at least 12 years of “education.” I thought a lot about what I was seeing, spoke on the topic, and also wrote extensively, including a book (ebook): Think of Sink: We Think or the West Sinks.
Two, a taboo on exploring and presenting facts about Islam - the ideology, the history, the current situation in Islamic countries, the situation with Muslim incomers (immigrants, etc) in non-Muslim countries.
There was a rigidity that I hadn’t frequently encountered before.
I couldn’t find many other people looking at the taboos against critical thinking (against thinking!!) - no big blog, for instance. I did find a couple of major blogs looking at Islam - for instance, JihadWatch and the GellerReport (which I believe had a somewhat different name 15 years ago).
For years Islam became my major focus, and then I looked further. Already before the plandemic, I was exploring other anti-truth rabbit holes - climate, for one.
With the plandemic, my focus shifted completely for several years.

A MAJOR SILENCE - WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE IS TO MY CREDIT
And now I come to what I see as a personal failing. We’ve all heard: Give me the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. That isn’t what I did.
I made a choice, which made sense to me when I made it, to leave my concern with Islam to one side for a time, and instead to concentrate on this huge menace, the plandemic - the masks, lockdowns, mandates, injection injuries and death, blocks against access to readily available remedies. So I generally left aside - like luggage not wanted on a voyage - those truths relating to Islam. That was a major silence - because I had put years into exploring Islam, also doing interviewing with many of the major figures exploring Islamic ideology and history. Further, Islamic immigration into the West was continuing and even escalating - with a considerable portion of the incomers denigrating the West, and also denigrating Jews. Also continuing and even escalating was the widespread acquiescence to Islamic demands (no offending allowed!!!).
On top of everything, I’ve recently noticed that many people alert to the plandemic destructiveness are unaware of the dangers related to Islamic ideology
And that brings me to my decision to break my general silence about Islam and have a third Truth Summit .
Personal Journeys: Understanding Islam, Understanding the West.
I’d love to have you along.

Iraq celebrates its first woman airplane pilot (yes, girls can and do go to school in most of the Islamic countries, with Afghanistan being a tough exception) - https://www.shafaq.com/en/Report/Captain-Razin-Al-Doski-makes-history-as-the-first-Iraqi-woman-to-pilot-for-Iraqi-Airways
