Subject: Colombian doings and the fraught world we live in - thanks to lying politicians

Hi to all our friends and families,

These blogs seem to be few and far between these days (the last one was early November last year) - , but there is so much happening in the world, and with us here⁷ in Colombia as well, that these matters constitute our excuse. We'd also have to say that the lack of response to these blogs remains an inhibiting factor, in spite of the few hardy souls who put up with our irrational rants - and make comments! But we will continue to persevere. Oh God, we can hear the chorus of woke folks around the place!

First our doings over the last 6 months or so - 

** We first applied for our 5 year Permanent Residency visas (a misnomer if ever there was one, unless it is expected that we would expire from this mortal coil in 5 year's time!) in October 2023. Jim's went through with no issues, although we had to put up with the usual Migracion Colombia's unaccountable delays. However, it is now in hand, so no worries. That sounds like an Aussie - God forbid!! 

But Jean's was another historia. Not to labour the story, she went to Miami in April 2022 and in order to qualify for a new long-term visa, you cannot be out of Colombia for more than 6 consecutive months during the preceding visa period. However, this is where the nonsensical story starts. Her Spirit Airlines flight on 22/04 was cancelled after she had been processed through Immigration. So she did the correct thing and was processed back into Colombia. She flew out the following day and returned in about 10 days. However, this is where the problems started.  Migracion did not process the cancelled flight at all, but entered the re-entry as an entry from Panama City. She has never been to PC and without a recorded  exit from Colombia, how could that have happened? Through some sort of twisted logic, they then deduced that all that meant that she had been out of Colombia for more than the statutory 6 months! However, the stamps in her passport are correct, inasmuch as they record the correct situation. In our innocence, we simply thought that a reasonable discussion and explanation with Migracion would solve the issue, which was their error anyway!! But NO - for some inexplicable reason they insisted on a confirmation letter from the airline that the flight on 22/04/22 had actually been cancelled. Our existing lawyer (who is not a specialist immigration lawyer) was unable to obtain this letter - and in fact Spirit initially denied that the flight had been cancelled!  At this stage things were getting a bit desperate and we were recommended to a specialist immigration lawyer. This is in no way a criticism of our original lawyer who is our friend and was up against a situation she had no experience of.

However, to cut a long story short, our new lawyer obtained the airline letter, and when we asked how - she said "don't ask"!! Then after many visits to Migracion in Belen, Medellin, we now have the correctly modified Movements Certificate and the 3rd visa application is underway. Jean's existing visa expires on June 5th. so after thinking we had plenty of time, that commodity is now in somewhat short supply, but we have been assured that her new visa will be ready before the expiry date. All in all, this farcical process will have cost us in total 8 million Colombian Pesos (NZD 3,500) since October last year. But cheaper than having to move to Argentina!!

We jokingly said to Perry that he dodged a bullet because if her visa was expiring before the issuance of the new one, he might have had Jean descending on him for an indefinite period of time! Anyway, she could have slept on the boat which is on davits on the jetty in front of the house!!

The lesson that we have learnt is don't try and argue with Migracion from a logical point of view because there is NO logic.You just go with the flow and provide whatever they ask for and maintain some sort of civility. They are quite literally a law unto themselves.

But now SUCCESS!! On 04/05 we were advised by our immigration lawyer that Jean's 5 year visa had been approved. We were expecting this, but nevertheless it is a huge relief. We have since been back to Migracion to confirm that the details on the new visa are correct - why they can't simply do all that by email is beyond us. Now on or about May 30th. we will have to go back to Migracion to collect Jean's cedula - a plastic card with all the visa details, about the size of a credit card which is actually the ID we always carry. But we will get copies made and laminated and carry those, keeping the originals here out of harm's way. 

Before we can get a Colombian passport, we will need another 5 year visa, by which time we will be 87! Whether it will be worth obtaining a passport at that stage is a moot point - it will depend on whether we will have popped our clogs or not!! We've increased our whisky intake to preserve ourselves into the future - only joking!! 

** Last December we flew to Miami to be with Perry and his family for Christmas and New Year. They had been in New Zealand before that and we actually arrived in Miami 3 days before they got back. While in NZ, they saw Perry's father who lives in Riverton at the bottom of the South Island and caught up with friends and family, as you do. Thinking of Riverton, puts us in mind of the time before we sailed from NZ in July 2011 on "Tiare Taporo III" when we would listen on the SSB to weather reports on Bluff Fisherman's Radio for the Puysegur marine area. A woman called Mere called the weather in a monotonous tone and typically it would go something like this - "SW 25 knots this morning turning NW gusting 40 in the afternoon. Overnight and in the morning gusting NW 55 then turning SW gusting 50 then reducing to 30 overnight". We had harboured thoughts of circumnavigating NZ before leaving for warmer climes but after a few of those we were glad events had conspired against us!!

We had a great time in Miami, although we have to say that the atmosphere generally had deteriorated since our previous visit. People were distant and unsmiling and it was just different. Still, when you consider what Biden has done to the country with unbridled immigration and inflation, perhaps it was unsurprising.

We had a restful time during our Miami sojourn and found a Colombian cafe with very good coffee and food around the next block - but SO expensive compared with El Retiro. Whole Foods Supermarket - owned now by Jeff Bezos - was also a frequent destination. We bought some clothes and Jim a hat from West Marine, which was good, but a visit to Target was disappointing and a great waste of time. Ross Dress for Less even more so. But speaking of spending money in the US, it really isn't much fun for us as recently the NZD/USD exchange rate has hovered around NZD 1.00 = USD 0.60, so we're losing around 40% of a NZ dollar's purchasing power. We use our NZ credit card whenever in the US as we don't have any USD bank account. But soon many reports have the USD crashing as their national debt level right now is approaching 35 Trillion US dollars - an unsustainable amount. One consequence of this debt level is that the annual interest cost is now exceeding the annual defence budget. And this level of debt could well (probably) see the USD lose its World Reserve Currency status - a position they have held since the Bretton Woods agreement in 1944.

There was a New Year party at Perry's and that was a great success. All no doubt drank far too much, but a good time was had by all and the food was great on Perry's new outdoor built-in BBQ. At Christmas we had all been to their Argentinian friends' place and had a very pleasant hospitable time. Their grandfather, Santiago, was visiting from Buenos Aires and they also came to Perry's for New Year. Jim and Santiago had a very long talk about the geopolitical situation! He is in his 80's and still does financial consulting work.  

A highlight was being taken one evening up to Fort Lauderdale where we went to a live theater performance of the Shen Yun touring troupe, which is based in NY City. They were performing Chinese folk songs and stories from 5,000 years ago and it was spectacular. The movements and costumes were mesmerising. Thank you to Perry and Tracie for enabling this as our Christmas present. Sadly the CCP of China doesn't like any Chinese history which isn't part of the CCP and so has been lobbying the US Government to have them shut down, especially as they were publicising Falung Gong which is anathema to the CCP. All in all, an unforgettable night.

The weather in Florida was of course winter, but unseasonably cold and swimming in the pool was impossible without running the heater and heating the whole pool from cold. At $10 per hour for gas and the need for at least 12 hours to get it up to a reasonable temperature, that was hardly a cost effective operation! 

Then towards the end of our stay, Perry hired a Jeep Wagoneer with 9 seats and we all went up to the Sebring area where they have an older house on one of the lakes - Lake Josephine, which is joined by narrow shallow channels to two other lakes. It was all fascinating to see as we had been keen to see the Florida lakes area north of Okeechobee, but a little disappointing as all the lakes are fairly shallow sink holes on peat bottoms, so the water is black! We had a good look around the area - there are some very palatial homes on some of the lake shores and of course Sebring is the home to a very famous motor racing track.

Then it was back to Miami and very soon on Jan. 9th. we were winging our way back to Medellin - Aeropuerto Jose Maria Cordova. Good to be home again after living out of suitcases which contained some more spare parts for our old German chariot! Much more on that subject further on!!

** In March this year we had a friend of Jean's, Catherine, come to stay. Jean had first met Catherine during their GE Free protest days in NZ around 20 years ago. Catherine had organised a  visit to Jamaica before flying to Medellin for a month's stay. Jim had met her back in NZ before our nautical adventures and so it was good to see her again. We collected her from Jose Maria Cordova and brought her back to our house. 

Catherine has since travelled on to a few of the Windward Islands in the Caribbean which she has been enjoying.

We spent time in Medellin and all 3 went up to Parque Arvi on the cable car - 2,000 feet above Medellin. We also saw again the Botero Museum which has a great collection of Botero's works - paintings and sculptors which are unmistakable in style and entertaining to see. We visited Astrid, our lawyer, in her apartment and then had a look at Parque Luces and the surrounding extensive very cheap market-like shops selling all manner of things. We showed her all around Oriente which comprises the area where we live and also went to El Carmen de Viboral where the world-famous hand painted crockery is made. 

** Then on the return from there the car started to miss so we changed course and went to the workshop of Juvenal in Rio Negro, to whom we had been introduced by Juan - the owner  of a 1981 W123 250 which he had bought new in Germany back then. Jim also had had a 1977 W123 250 in NZ some years before. Anyway, the problem appeared somewhat more serious than just a coil. A transistor on the Engine Control Module had blown and was irreparable in Colombia. So, we tracked down another unit from a "totalled" car in Miami and had that sent to Colombia along with 3 replacement coils of a much better German brand than could be obtained in Colombia - and at about one third of the price. Now we have the car back and it is running perfectly, but we would like to get the spare damaged Module repaired back in the US. However, the problem is finding someone who repairs ancient electronic items! 

We are changing the existing 16" wheels back to the original 15" ones, which the previous owner still had, and replacing a thermal switch which controls the electric auxiliary cooling fans as well as brake pad wear sensors. The brake pad warning light stays on and we know the pads are ok because we replaced them last year.

The joys of owning a 31 yr old classic MB, especially in Colombia, where almost all the problem is finding a workshop which has an empathy with and knowledge of older cars. Juvenal (fingers crossed) seems to have the necessary credentials. His workshop in a bus park in Rio Negro is hardly impressive but he is prepared to enlist the help of particular experts in various areas, which was certainly the case with our electronic issue. At one stage he even gave us a ride in an almost 60 year old Renault R12 - same type which Jim's family through Etablissements Donald-Tahiti used to sell in French Polynesia all those years ago. As an aside, the first car that Jim ever drove on the right was a Renault R16 on Tahiti in 1968!!! He's since driven on the right in New Caledonia, Turkey and Florida - and now in Colombia.

Since then though, after a chance conversation with another expat we met recently here, we have been introduced to another workshop which specialises in classic car restoration. The big problem with Juvenal was that the car was filthy when we collected it and it took us 5 hours collectively to clean it up - particularly the inside. It reminded Jim of the bad old days in NZ where after even just a lube and oil change, it was necessary to wipe the grease off the steering wheel! We've even given the seats some leather preservative and the Colombian leather looks a million dollars - well, not quite!!

But we always get pleasure from driving the old girl, which in our experience is incomparable to cars costing 5 or 6 times more to buy. And if we have to be without her for a week or so now and again, it's not of any consequence as we have no urgent need to go anywhere. Shops are within walking distance, which we became well used to during our sojourn on the yacht!! And the bus service here is without peer - to Medellin or Rio Negro and the bus stops on demand, whether getting on or off. The drivers are the most obliging we have EVER met anywhere. And the 30 km trip from here to Medellin for instance is only 19,000 Pesos for both of us - NZD8.30. A trip from here to Medellin and then to Migracion by 35 minute taxi ride and return to El Retiro is typically COP 80,000 (NZD 35) in total for both of us.

We have had quite a change in the weather in the last 2 weeks or so. Previously we and most of the western S American continent as well as Panama, had been in the grip of an El Nino induced drought. Panama has been in a bad way with diminishing water supplies from the Gatun Lake which has forced the reduction in the number of ships transiting the Canal. However, La Nina seems to have made a comeback as forecast and typical rains have resumed. There have been severe water shortages in Colombia with the capital, Bogota having complete water shut-downs by suburb on a daily basis. There was even a last minute panic here and in Medellin (which gets all of its water from this area) to save water, but in reality the shortage, which is now over, is being caused by extensive residential apartment building without corresponding infrastructure enhancements. However, the realisation seems to have now hit home and necessary works to capture more water from the rivers that tumble down from the hills above us, is underway. And the drought has now broken with a vengeance as a few nights ago (03/05) it poured all night and the lower part of Retiro was flooded again, although not as badly as in October 2022 just before we moved up here. Our house is elevated so no risk of flooding here, unless the flood was of biblical proportions a la Noah!! At 7,000 feet altitude not too much chance of that. But we are not as high as the top of Mt. Ararat here!! Ararat in Turkey/Armenia is over 5,000 metres (approx. 17,000 feet), so maybe we will need to build an ark. We'll be very choosy as to who is allowed on board!!!  

And now for the meaty part of the blog where weighty matters of the day are discussed - and there is no shortage of those!! They are in no particular order of importance.

** To start with, we have been trying to make sense of all the geopolitical events of late. And it seems to us that in trying to understand things completely, you can boil the whole ghastly mess down to just one issue - GLOBALISM versus NATIONALISM. We have to say that we are very much in the latter camp as this is the ONLY way in which countries can maintain their culture, character, control of their own currency and economic and political affairs, and basically their FREEDOM. 

Globalism a la the WEF is an extremely destructive philosophy as it requires countries to abrogate all those matters as above and which have been established over centuries with corresponding extreme hardship and sacrifice - all to be thrown away on the altar of Globalism. This is just another word for another more truthful description - that of traitorousness and sedition. 

Trade agreements are another issue  - perfectly natural and desirable to protect individual countries' rights to trade expeditiously with one another, but NOT as the EU has developed from the original European Economic Community in 1973 into an almost fully fledged United States of Europe.

** We have the on-going Ukraine War which has been slowly building since 2014. Then in 2022 of course Russia invaded Ukraine due to the lies and deception of the US and its NATO allies, where in the Minsk Accords of 2015 they promised that Ukraine would never join NATO and would remain neutral. But then they immediately began building the Ukrainian military into an efficient and credible fighting force to impose US will on Russia a la the Russian effort in Cuba in 1961. But Russia was quite understandably not having any of that, since a red line had most definitely been crossed. So, they invaded - intially with a small force, as they believed that at that point the US would finally take them seriously. In fact at that point Ukraine and Russia had an agreement for a cease-fire, but NO - the US and NATO in the form of the British P.M., Boris Johnson at the behest of his US masters, told Ukraine in no uncertain terms that the cease-fire would cease immediately and that the war would continue. Part of their twisted thinking was that by continuing, they would force regime change in Russia, but that was a massive miscalculation. President Putin is now more popular than ever and the bulk of the Russian population is solidly behind him. In the meantime Russia has exerted more and more pressure on Ukraine because really they have had no alternative. 

Now we have the appalling spectacle of the warmongers in the US Congress, aided and abetted by the Republican RINO Speaker, passing another ludicrous spending bill to throw another 60 odd BILLION dollars down the Ukraine toilet to enrich all the members of Congress as well as the military/industrial cabal. Then a small proportion actually goes to Ukraine to grease the palms of the crooks who purport to run the country. Ukrainian military casualties already total over 600,000 DEAD and at least 100,000 wounded with most of those AMPUTEES. Biden and Zelensky and their hangers-on are the real war criminals and at some point they must be held to account. 

Russia will advance over the whole front to the Dnieper River and they will take the Russian cities of Karkhov and Odessa. Then, thanks to the ludicrous US foreign policy a la Biden, all that will be left of Ukraine will be a land-locked mountainous rump of a country with very little wealth. It may in fact, along with Moldova, be subsumed into Romania, which would make sense, except that Romania is part of NATO and that would put another NATO country on the Russian border. Hmmmmm.

The Russian Federation will hold onto the traditional Russian areas already conquered and Russia will no longer face the cold prospect of NATO missiles aimed at Moscow. Russia will not be disposed to ANY concessions when it comes to "negotiations", given the outright deceit with which they have been treated over many years by the US and NATO. They will understandably be extremely hard-nosed.

GAME OVER!!!!!! 

As a footnote - it is just very fortunate for humanity as a whole that President Putin is a very clever strategist who is not given to impulsive or emotional decisions. His actions to date have been admirably restrained. By contrast, the clowns/lunatics in the White House - and some European "leaders" - notably Macron - are simply deluded opportunists who seem to think that a "limited" nuclear war, which they continue to try to goad Russia into, is somehow acceptable. What planet do these people come from? Let's hope that they somehow learn that a "limited" nuclear war is just a fantasy which exists only in their fevered phsycopathic imaginations. Quite simply, nuclear war means Armageddon. 

The other factor which must be weighing heavily among Washington "minds" is that the USD is now under unprecedented attack from BRICS and the many nations who are now members. It seems to us that this attack, along with other issues affecting the future of the World Reserve Status of the USD, will eventually succeed as the world as a whole is now finished with American financial hegemony and will embrace almost any alternative. 

But the danger now is that, with desperation setting in, the US and NATO will probably be inclined to resort to any action that they perceive as possibly effective in propping up the USD. The possible consequences of this thinking, when you consider all the angles, are hardly re-assuring. 

** Israel and Gaza - here we are torn between understanding the horrific attack that took place against Israel on October 7th. 2023 and the need for Israel to destroy the people that initiated the attack which saw almost 1,500 Israeli civilians lose their lives in the most horrific circumstances.

But in destroying Hamas, tens of thousands of mostly innocent Palestinian civilians have been killed and Hamas is still far from exterminated. In fact it is not possible to exterminate Hamas, because it is simply an idea or movement, and there will always be more religious fanatics to fill the shoes of those "exterminated".

In all of this, it is necessary to also consider the escalating risk of regional war with Iran, Turkey, Egypt and even Russia, unless Israel reigns in its continued policy of destroying Gaza with no thought of collateral civilian casualties. In considering this, it also needs to be well understood that the US is not the military power that it once was in the 1990's. In fact Russia right now has a modern mechanised army of in excess of one million under arms and Turkey could muster over two million. And their military is modern and well equipped as well. 

By contrast the US would be lucky to muster much more than maybe 250.000 combat ready troops - and they are scattered in many places, thanks to the lunatic US policy of creating war wherever the opportunity presents itself. These wars have been a big contributor to the current US Federal debt of 35 TRILLION US dollars, but of course they have been massively profitable for the Military/Industrial Complex! In addition to all that, the US does not any longer have the financial or physical wherewithal to produce weapons on the scale that would be required - unlike Russia with China's help. Their munitions factories are working 24/7.

Probably the only workable solution right now is what has been postulated on numerous occasions, and that is the continuation of Gaza in a two-state solution with Israel. A strong and policed security fence along the Gaza/Israel border should hold the situation in the immediate term.

Otherwise continued slaughter of Palestinians with all the human cost, will achieve nothing except an unacceptable increased risk of nuclear war which could easily and very quickly escalate into a global conflict.   

However, it's all very well to be idealistic about the possibility of Israel finally accepting the notion of a two state solution. But there are oil deposites off the Gazan coast and Israel, which is devoid of natural resources, no doubt has its eye firmly on those, which would be unattainable unless Gaza and its inhabitants are removed from the map. Already some 300 million USD has been spent on creating on-shore docking facilities so the intentions of Israel seem clear. 

Palestine is NOT at this stage a sovereign state and so the oil deposits fall within Israel's EEZ and therefore legally belong to Israel. 

The only impediment to exploiting the oil is the pesky population of Palestinian Arabs and the terrorist organisation of Hamas. So it seems likely that the continued GENOCIDE of Palestine will continue with all the geopolitical consequences that are entailed. As this is written, Israel is already conducting "operations" in Rafah in southern Gaza on the Egyptian border.  

** We can only hope that the US, and by extension the world, can survive the next 6 months until President Trump is re-elected President of the United States of America. The scale of the immense damage that has been deliberately wrought by the Democrats is daunting to say the least. Apart from the geopolitical issues detailed above there are inflation which will be largely brought under control by freeing up oil and gas production in the US, and the southern border, where it is estimated that up to 40 million illegals (12% of the whole population) have been released with no recognisance whatsoever into the continental US. The number of bad actors and where they may currently be is absolutely unknown. President Trump has said that he will deport ALL the illegals,but if the total of 40 million is correct, that would amount to 27,000 per day for the next 4 years. An impossible goal in our opinion. Then there is the matter of the Federal debt approaching 35 TRILLION dollars. The interest on this alone is now more than the entire military budget.

These matters are enormous hurdles, but with single-minded determination and a Congress willing to disassociate itself from the bribery of big Pharma and the Military/Industrial Complex, they can possibly be achieved, although it will probably take more than the 4 years of the next presidential term.

** The other pressing matter directly involved with the US debt is the effort being made by the BRICS countries to establish their own gold-backed currency which they will use for international trade, and particularly for petroleum. This effort has been well referred to above. It is now well advanced and looks like being successful in the medium term. The US has enjoyed financial dominance over world trade for the last 80 years, but stupidly they have used this privileged position to constantly bully other countries to follow their own agenda, including sanctions and the like - which have really blown up in their faces where Russia is concerned. Russia's financial position has gone from strength to strength since Russia invaded Ukraine. The total US debt combined with the BRICS movement could well see the US dollar lose its coveted World Reserve Currency status and if that happens, the consequencs with the US debt in the mix as well can only be imagined. But it won't be pretty, and that's putting it mildly.

** And finally this matter that we wanted to discuss is the latest development as regards the Covid mRNA "vaccines" - which are not vaccines at all. They're actually GMO's - Genetically Modified Organisms. This is now legally well proven and it is legally established that the pharmaceutical companies concerned were well aware that the product they were pushing was in fact a GMO - well capable of changing an individual's DNA. They wilfully withheld this fact from various regulatory agencies in all countries in order to get fraudulent approval for "THE JAB" from which they have made billions of dollars. If they had been upfront and declared the JAB as a GMO from the outset, the approval time would have been far longer, and there would have been much more extensive testing which would have exposed the harmful effects of the JAB. If this delay had occurred, approval would at the least have been considerably delayed, or withheld altogether. Then all the excess deaths which have appallingly occurred would not have happened. Having said that, it seems anecdotally that MOST of the harmful effects have only occurred after the third jab. 

Far fewer people would have died with effective Covid medication such as Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, and Covid would have simply faded into the background. Instead we had all the fear-mongering and social pressure combined with mandates for the "vaccine".and people still got the Covid and in many cases died because their immune systems had been so badly compromised due to the deleterious genetic effects on the human system from the "vaccine". These events briefly outlined here constitute the greatest medical scandal ever to have seriously harmed the human race. There is a very informative conversation between Dr. John Campbell of the UK and Mr. Julian Gillespie - an Australian lawyer who is closely involved in bringing an action against the Australian Government for damages caused to the people whose welfare they are supposed to defend. A very interesting point - as the JAB is now a legally proven GMO, the indemnity which various governments around the world gave to companies like Pfizer have NO LEGAL EFFECT. This is because the various indemnities given covered vaccines - NOT GMO's. This development now leaves the way wide open for multi-billion dollar lawsuits which are only now just beginning. If you have any shares in Pfizer, we'd sell them NOW!! It is noteworthy that AstraZeneca have now withdrawn their JAB from the market and stopped any further "vaccinations". Perhaps they are trying to circumvent legal actions which they are possibly anticipating?

The Campbell/Gillespie conversation, which lasts for an hour and a half, was recorded on Youtube on April 22nd. We have listened to the podcast and, although we were aware of many of the issues discussed, we were nevertheless mesmerised and we have sent it on to National, ACT and NZ First to use in the current NZ Royal Commission of Inquiry into the mishandling of the so-called Covid "pandemic" in NZ. We hope that at least someone listens. If anyone is interested in obtaining a copy of the podcast, just let us know and we can email it to you along with a copy of our informal submission via the Coalition members to the Royal Commission of Inquiry.

Finally, don't dare accuse us of being conspiracy theorists - the conspiracists are the pharmaceutical companies who outrageously deceived sovereign governments by claiming their product was a "vaccine", whereas THAT WAS A LIE; THE "VACCINE" WAS/IS A GMO - GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISM with all the ramifications flowing from that causing death and injury which governments the world over are now shamefully and wilfully ignoring in a criminal cowardly attempt to evade proper responsibility.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) is now pressuring all countries to sign an agreement which would give the WHO unbridled control of individual countries' health systems in the event of another "pandemic". From what we hear, Bird Flu is the next one and "gain of function" scientific endeavours are well underway to create a highly transmissable and lethal virus upon the world - again. These people are evil and no doubt Fauci et al are financially involved as it is now well proven that they had this involvement with Covid-19. trump will undoubtedly take the US out of the WHO and in view of the harm they have caused to date, NZ should do the same.

We hope that everyone is well and that life is treating you all tolerably well........

Cheers and lotsaluv from us in El Retiro, Colombia.
