[Springboard] {Disarmed} signs of global contradictions (images)

[John Cock]

I am fulfilling a promise to get my list in. I've collected, read several
times, and highlighted the many contradiction statements. Good stuff. I
think we've about covered it. I'm more than ready to go to the next step.
What I've tried to do is get beyond just words to images that have been
helpful to me of late. ~John
