I no longer recognize the peaceful Sweden I was born in and the medium-sized city of Norrk\u00f6ping, where I have lived peacefully for 25 years, is starting to feel more like Chicago in the late 1920s.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This summer, the entrance to a house I often pass on the way to my band\u2019s rehearsal studio was destroyed by a bomb attack. A week later, thieves broke into our studio and stole music equipment. It was not hard to guess who and why. In the courtyard outside, drug dealing has been going on for some time time.<\/p>\n<p>Just one month later, an explosion blew the roof off an apartment building in the same district. This time, it was a freak accident where an electric scooter that caught fire while charging indoors and then ignited a number of spray bottles kept nearby. During the technical investigation, the police found a large stash of drugs.<\/p>\n<p>A few weeks ago, a seventeen-year-old boy was shot to death in broad daylight outside the grocery store where I usually shop and a month earlier, a man was murdered in a nearby restaurant. This is a continuation of a gloomy development.<\/p>\n<p>The city I moved to is no longer recognizable. Shootings have become commonplace. Criminal networks operate in the background. To curb crime, surveillance cameras were recently installed outside the entrance to our apartment building.<\/p>\n<p>Everything to \u201censure our safety\u201d. This happened just a couple of days after the Swedish government declared at a press conference that it would crack down on crime through more surveillance in public spaces.[1] All to restore order out of the chaos that this same Swedish government had invited in 2015 when opening our borders to more refugees than our small nation was able to take care of.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<div id=\"attachment_279669\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bombings-in-Sweden-2022-23.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-279669\" class=\"wpa-warning wpa-image-missing-alt wp-image-279669\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bombings-in-Sweden-2022-23.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"282\" data-warning=\"Missing alt text\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bombings-in-Sweden-2022-23.png 600w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Bombings-in-Sweden-2022-23-480x226.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 600px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-279669\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bombings in Sweden 2022-23. Click to enlarge<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>In the rest of the world, unrest has also continued. While the war in Ukraine has developed into a deadlocked trench war, another war was again sparked in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>This time, after a particularly suspicious act of terrorism where a terrorists were able to cross the world\u2019s most monitored border without problems and spread terror for several hours before there was any reaction from Israeli security forces. The attack and the resulting retaliation has once again caused division in the world. The motto \u201cdivide and conquer\u201d is more relevant than ever. This conflict risks spreading and resulting in a major global war.<\/p>\n<p>In my formerly neutral and peace-loving Sweden, which in 2022 took the historic decision to join NATO because of Russia\u2019s attack on Ukraine, an agreement was recently made to make seventeen of our military bases available to NATO even before the membership is formalized.[2] At the same time, the arms industry rejoices over new lucrative contracts. Ammunition stocks are depleted and need to be replenished.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden has so far contributed SEK 22.2 billion in <em>military<\/em> (rather than <em>humanitarian<\/em>) support to Ukraine.[3] At the same time, financial support to peace organizations has been terminated. It is clear that Sweden has become little more than a vassal state, with no real independence of our own, that primarily serves the big corporations and their owners.<\/p>\n<p>Now preparations seem to be in the making for a major conflict in line with old Biblical prophecies.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, efforts to strengthen the UN organization to guarantee \u201cpeace and order\u201d in a fragmented world continue. This year, <strong>United Nations <\/strong>will hold its pivotal <strong>Summit of the Future<\/strong> with the goal of setting the guidelines for a new global order with a new and upgraded UN.<\/p>\n<p>Negotiations are also underway to give the WHO greatly expanded powers. This is similar to the situation during World War II when the foundations of the United Nations were negotiated while Berlin and Tokyo were carpet-bombed.<\/p>\n<p>During 2023, I have followed the work at the UN and analyzed the eleven <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/common-agenda\/policy-briefs\">Policy Briefs<\/a>\u00a0that were released between March and September. These are to serve as a basis for the \u201cPact for the Future\u201d that is to be concluded and signed on 22-23 September 2024. Together with the World Health Organization\u2019s new Pandemic Treaty which is to be signed at the World Health Assembly in May 2024, it will in a concrete manner transfer power from the nations to a supranational level.[4]<\/p>\n<p>This means that we will not be able to choose our own path in dealing with future pandemics. In addition, the UN wants to create an \u201cemergency platform\u201d that will be automatically triggered in the event of a global crisis. This opens the door for totalitarian powers on global scale.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>An International Focus<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After having written and lectured primarily for a Swedish audience, last New Years I set the goal of finding a larger audience outside Sweden. During 2023, I have therefore shifted my focus and started writing more in English. This has so far resulted in sixteen articles and a growing international interest.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yTwOuN39VHo?si=lCIQGV5YYd_lxjXH\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>My most read article, \u201cWhy the President of the Club of Rome tried to stop the approval of my dissertation\u201d, has currently had close to 17,000 views. This was written after a visit to the birthplace of the <strong>Club of Rome<\/strong>, Accademia dei Lincei in Rome (where I also found interesting connections to Sweden and the Swedish 17th Century Queen Christina who abdicated and moved to Rome).<\/p>\n<p>I have also lectured in our neighboring Nordic countries. In April, I was the opening speaker at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spotcon.org\/\">Spotlight Conference<\/a> in beautiful Stavanger, Norway. A conference, organized by the <a href=\"https:\/\/old.binders.info\/\">Binders Initiative<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.eu\/\">Children\u2019s Health Defense Europe<\/a>, with high-profile speakers such as American scientist <strong>Sasha Latypova<\/strong>, British parlamentarian <strong>Andrew Bridgen<\/strong> and Swiss lawyer <strong>Philip Kruse<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In early May, I also had the privilege of giving a lecture in the Finno-Swedish city Eken\u00e4s and meeting a dedicated group of free thinkers.<\/p>\n<p>I then met the inspiring Irish youtuber <strong>Ivor Cummins<\/strong> for an interview in Stockholm. Ivor has perhaps done more than anyone to spread my research over the past year. Among other things, he noticed and shared my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=R14b0ZSSSUM&amp;t=1030s\">opening address<\/a> from the <strong>Northern Light Convention<\/strong> in Malm\u00f6 2022. The address has so far had 284,000 views, while the interview has reached 120,000 views. This meant that the first English edition of my 2019 book <em>Rockefeller: Controlling the Game<\/em> quickly sold out.<\/p>\n<p>Ivor and I also met for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RRbmUZd-dKo\">interview<\/a> in connection with <strong>The Doctors Appeal\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>conference \u201cOn Guard for the Liberty of Mankind\u201d at Johannesberg Manor outside Stockholm in late September.<\/p>\n<p>It was a fantastic opportunity to meet like-minded people. At the same conference, I also met American economist <strong>Catherine Austin Fitts<\/strong>, who did a <a href=\"https:\/\/home.solari.com\/engineering-the-global-coup-part-ii-with-dr-jacob-nordangard\/\">follow-up interview <\/a>with me. I will now contribute with an article about the digital world brain to the next <a href=\"https:\/\/home.solari.com\/\">Solari Report<\/a>. The eminent <strong>Whitney Webb<\/strong> also appears in the same issue.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after the conference, I was invited as a contributor to the American M.D. <strong>Meryl Nass\u2019<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/doortofreedom.org\/\">Door to Freedom<\/a> initiative. On behalf of this collaboration, I held two lectures in English in Stockholm that were filmed, in order to contribute to spreading knowledge about the UN\u2019s <strong>Pact of the Future<\/strong> and the declaration of the \u201cplanetary state of emergency\u201d called for by agenda-setting individuals and organisations such as the Club of Rome<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8ZgEZqMju2M?si=5fL5CkUPXTZilLUJ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>During 2023, I have also been interviewed by, among others, <strong>Daniel Estulin<\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.corbettreport.com\/nordangard-un\/\">James Corbett<\/a>,<\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=jtiy-P-pfGA\">Tom Nelson<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In April, my 2020 book <em>The Global Coup d\u2019Etat<\/em> (<em>Globalny Zamach Stany)<\/em> was published by Polish <a href=\"https:\/\/art-print.pro\/\">Vin Ross Publishing<\/a>, and in September the Rockefeller book (<em>Les Rockefeller: Ma\u00eetres du jeu)<\/em> was released by French publisher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.editionsjcgodefroy.fr\/livre\/les-rockefeller\/\">Editions Jean-Cyrille Godefroy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Within the next few months, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyhorsepublishing.com\/\">Skyhorse Publishing<\/a> will be releasing <em>Rockefeller: Controlling the game<\/em> in the US (pre-order <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyhorsepublishing.com\/9781510780217\/rockefeller\/\">here<\/a>) and later <em>The Global Coup d\u2019\u00c8tat<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Another unexpected surprise was that <a href=\"https:\/\/awakeningrecords.cn\/\">Awakening Records<\/a> will be reissuing the 1993 album <em>Lay it to Rest<\/em> with my old band <strong>Captor <\/strong>on vinyl and cassette<\/p>\n<p>Next up is the filming of the <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ds9oXu62DHM&amp;t=2872s\">Temple of Solomon<\/a><\/em> lecture series in English. The plan is also to publish it as a book, along with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=enwCg32iPOc&amp;t=8s\">Temple of Solomon album<\/a> by my band <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/wardenclyffe.se\/\">Wardenclyffe<\/a><\/strong> as soundtrack, before next Christmas. This was already the plan for 2023, but unfortunately other things got in the way.<\/p>\n<p>This year will in all probability be as eventful and I will do my best to continue analysing what is happening on the world stage. I hope to have the opportunity to lecture in Europe and other parts of the world (<a href=\"http:\/\/jacob@nordangard.se\/\">contact me<\/a> if you want to organize).<\/p>\n<p><strong>2024 will be a decisive year. Will we experience the unforeseen \u201cblack swan\u201d event that Klaus Schwab predicted at the World Government Summit 2023? The cyber \u200b\u200battack that WEF has been preparing for since 2019 to wipe the slate clean for the new digital order? Will a planetary emergency be declared?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We must, however, not give up despite all the negative things that keep happening. I still believe in the goodness and creative abilities of man. More and more people are waking up and looking elsewhere for more reliable information than the government and corporate propaganda. National and global authorities\u2019 attempts to control the narrative by censoring alternative media are in fact signs of desperation.<\/p>\n<p>Like many others in the wake of the many crises of recent years, me and my wife have also gotten many new friends, supporters, and met many wonderful people from all around the world. This is one of the upsides of the many tragedies and threats facing us as a species.<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks to everyone who supported me during the year and witnessed my talks.
