The Rothschild Weather Control Conspiracy

From STORMFURY to HAARP: Unpacking the Physical Limits of Geoengineering and the Spread of Weather Disinformation

Fri Oct. 23, 2026 /Mpelembe Media/ — The viral “THRONE CLIMATE” narrative functions as a grand super-conspiracy, falsely alleging that a secretive elite connected to the Rothschild family operated a worldwide network of 22 weather modification stations for 47 years to manufacture catastrophes like Hurricane Katrina and the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

Chris Greenough, Edge Hill University

While these images are hardly a reflection of what little can be surmised about the historical Jesus, they certainly reflect social and cultural ideas about masculinity and idealised notions of manhood.
