Smutty Scanners and Private Planes
By Becky Akers
Twice in as many months, events have conspired to give the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) exactly what it wants despite the public’s intense opposition. You need not be a skeptic for this to seem oddly convenient rather than merely coincidental.
First was the Underwear Bomber’s attempt on Christmas Day to emasculate himself aboard his flight. The TSA immediately exploited that fashion faux-pas to push its favorite toy, whole-body imagers. These pornographic scanners peer through passengers’ clothing to photograph the bombs so many tape to their bodies — and the bodies themselves.
The TSA has been trying to turn airports into peep-shows courtesy of these strip-machines since 2002. But judging from passengers’ refusal to submit, they preferred to lose the War on Terror rather than exhibit themselves to government agents. The idea was so patently offensive that Congress, never known for its prudery, introduced legislation last year restricting the scanners’ use.
Then along comes Umar Farouk Abdullmutallab and his burning britches and bingo, resistance to titillating the TSA drops (at least among Congressmen: Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), sponsor of the aforementioned legislation, mourned that though “it passed in the House with overwhelming support on both sides of the aisle,” Abdullmutallab’s stunt renders “the Senate . . . very reluctant. And I understand why.”) Whole-body scanners are now zooming along the fast track and coming very soon to an airport near you.
Never mind that “it is unclear whether the [scanners] or other technologies would have detected [Abdullmutallab’s] weapon,” as the Government Accountability Office put it, nor that his diaper wasn’t imminently dangerous since the odds of his successfully detonating it were low. (Explosives are notoriously temperamental: they require careful handling and precise conditions. Yes, Abdullmutallab might possibly have blown a hole in his plane — just as birds could fly into its engine and force a landing on the Hudson River. But both are unlikely). Game, set, match, with the TSA and manufacturers gloating over $300 million in “stimulus funds . . . allocated for technology to detect explosives carried by passengers.”
The TSA pants to control private planes as much as it does to see us naked. And so it’s muttered for years about the dangers of “General Aviation.”

Transcribed by Jeff Fenske from Radio Liberty, 2/23/10
Dr. Stanley Monteith:
“Certainly, there is no question that those buildings were brought down by controlled demolition. They killed almost 3,000 Americans, and the murderers are still there.”
“This is such an important subject, and we need to keep bringing this up over and over again until the murderers, and there are murders, and they should be held before the bar of justice.”
Robert Baer wrote that one of the highest ranking intelligence officers in the country said: “When the dust finally settles, the American people will discover that what happened on September 11th was not a failure of intelligence. It was a triumph of intelligence.” [Dr. Stan’s recollection of Baer’s quote]
Dr. Stan continues: “How could the deaths of 3,000 people be a triumph of intelligence? Well, of course, it got us into the wars, and that’s what it’s all about and massively expanded the government’s control over the lives of the people.”

Misprision of treason – Peace Action –
Stop War by exposing the 9/11 Cover-up
According to a college dictionary, the definition of Misprision of felony (or treason) is the ‘offense of concealing knowledge of a felony (or treason) by one who has not participated or assisted in it.’ Another source described treason as a word that ‘imports a betraying, treachery, or breach of allegiance.’ The Constitution of the United States, Art. III, defines treason against the United States to consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid or comfort. The events of September 11 was described as an act of war by President Bush, and used to justify expanding the war in Afghanistan by President Obama. These administrations, based on the following evidence, have committed treason against the US by covering up and misusing the events of September 11.
Misprision of treason – Whereas, US code 18 (Sec. 2382) – Misprision of treason, – states: “Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States and having knowledge of the commission of any treason against them, conceals and does not, as soon as may be, disclose and make known the same to the President or to some judge of the United States, or to the governor or to some judge or justice of a particular State, is guilty of misprision of treason and shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than seven years, or both.” It follows that anyone who has knowledge of treason in regard to that event, its cover-up, and subsequent actions against the United States, and does not notify the stated authorities is guilty of misprision of treason.
Therefore, the undersigned citizen of the United States of America, in accordance with the law pertaining to Misprision of treason, promises to contact “some judge of the United States, or . . . governor or . . .judge or justice of a particular State,” with the following evidence. Please encourage, especially those who have taken sworn oaths of office, to also sign and take appropriate actions, or possibly be guilty of Misprision of felony (treason).
Evidence of treason
Although the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) says that World Trade Center 7 was the first steel-framed skyscraper in history to undergo total collapse from fire alone. The fact that NIST refused even to consider nano-thermate presence and destructive potential, but rather summarily dismissed the use of it, is disingenuous. Fire doesn’t pulverize a million tons of concrete. High-powered explosives do. Vital evidence from the World Trade Center crime scene, including most of the steel from WTC 1, 2 and 7, was deliberately destroyed before it could be properly examined.
The buildings collapsed too rapidly and with too much violence for the NIST explanation to be correct; the temperatures attained during the destruction were much too high; the acceleration of the buildings during their collapses was much too smooth. Well over one hundred first responders perceived explosions at or near the times of the collapses, and nano-thermite, a highly sophisticated substance that can be used both as an explosive and as an incendiary, has been found in large quantities in the debris of the World Trade Center.
The presence of thermite and nano-thermite was confirmed by independent researchers, who have analyzed the dust collected by four individuals in four different locations in the vicinity of the World Trade Center. These studies confirm the presence of small chips composed of an extremely sophisticated mixture of nano-scale aluminothermic composite materials (explosives). This work is published in Open Chemistry/Physics Journal, “Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe.” One of its authors, Nil Harrit in a German interview in May 2009, said: “There are no experts on nano-thermite without connections to the military…. This stuff has only been prepared under military contracts in the USA and probably in bigger allied countries. This is secret military research…It was not prepared in a cave in Afghanistan.”
Senior Counsel for the 9/11 Commission, John Farmer, disclosed in his book, The Ground Truth “…at some level of the government, at some point in time…there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened… I was shocked at how different the truth was from the way it was described …. The [Norad air defense] tapes told a radically different story from what had been told to us and the public for two years. This is not spin.” Whenever contact is lost with any airplane, fighter jets routinely take to the air to investigate. This commonly occurs about 100 times per year in well under 20 minutes. But on 9/11 nearly two hours passed without any interception.
There were also warnings of the impending attacks from at least eleven other countries. Also, prior to 9/11, insiders such as John Ashcroft, top military officers, and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown were warned not to fly. Additional evidence of foreknowledge came from insider trading. Shortly before 9/11, tens of millions that were made by Put options on American Airlines show 99% probability of illegal insider trading.

If You Want To Lose Your Soul
Blindly Support Your Government
– Right Or Wrong
By J. Speer-Williams
3-6-10
A soul-less being has no empathy for others. Lose your empathy, and you’ve lost your soul.
There is a “great divide” forming amongst mankind, and it’s often war that most often triggers that divide.
Once a combat soldier kills a defenseless non-combatant, he either likes it or feels remorse. If he likes it, he kills more non-combatants, many more. If he feels remorse, he’s likely to kill more non-combatants to anesthetized or deaden his feelings of moral anguish for having initially killed an innocent human being. In either case, such wanton killing is encouraged by “command intention,” from above, for a variety of reasons; but mainly, it’s done to spread the contagion of universal madness: a people without empathy.
In such a mad society, Israeli citizens justify burning alive Palestinian children, while American republicans still support Bush’s torture and murder of about two million innocents, and democrats overlook Obama’s expanded war and torture in Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Pakistan.
Soon our madness – absence of empathy – spreads throughout the Middle East, and then around the world in the form of justifying or overlooking all governmental crimes as we are now emotionally invested in them, with our lack of empathy.
A lack of empathy blinds human beings to justice, liberty, and personal discernment, rendering them soulless – a major reason for all wars.

Recently, the German television station ProSieben ran a news story covering W. C. Heraeus in Hanau, Germany, the world’s largest privately owned refinery. In the story, Wilfried Hörner, the head of the gold foundry, shows a 500 gram bar (16.0755 troy ounces) received from an unidentified bank. The bar had the right physical dimensions to be an authentic gold bar, but one of the Heraeus employees suspected something funny. After the bar was cut in half, you can see that the inside is tungsten, with only a coating of gold on the outside.
You can watch this news story on You Tube, where it was posted February 28, at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKczs-7BFRI.
Last fall, Rob Kirby of Kirby Analytics in Toronto reported that China’s central bank had discovered some 400-ounce gold-plated tungsten bars among those it had recently received from bonded warehouses. It was later learned that at least four counterfeit bars were found and that all had come from sources in the United States.
Only a blind or deliberately naïve man cannot see that America–the once-proud “land of the free”–is being systematically turned into a twenty-first century police state. Good grief! The Heritage Foundation’s Index of Economic Freedom notes that America is not even listed among the “free” countries of the earth. …
When will we recognize that the Department of Homeland Security would be more properly named the Department of Homeland Enslavement? When are we going to wake up to the fact that the Patriot Act is nothing but a tool of the federal government to usurp constitutionally protected liberties? When are we going to realize that the federal “war on drugs” inflicts more damage on the Bill of Rights than it does any major drug dealer? When will we get fed up with these random police checkpoints (manned by agents from virtually any and every police agency, including federal agents) going up everywhere? When will we tire of our local policemen and sheriff’s deputies more resembling military commandos than peace officers? When will we demand that our State and local officials stop begging the federal government for “stimulus” money? In other words, when are we going to decide that we want to live in FREEDOM?

There is a classic story about how no one had been able to capture a herd of wild hogs that was rooting up crops from numerous farms. It got so bad that rewards had been posted for anyone clever enough to corral the critters. But even this resulted in only limited success.
One day a stranger (who was a wily old trapper) came into town and–entering the general store–ordered a truckload of fence posts and fencing, along with some feed. When asked what he was going to use it for, he said, “I’m going to get those wild hogs y’all are having trouble with.” Of course, everyone in the store laughed at the overconfident stranger. A few weeks later, however, the stranger rode into town with the back of his truck tightly packed with the smelly swine.
When asked how he was able to accomplish what no one else had been able to do, the old trapper replied, “Simple. I started putting the feed out in a small clearing and the hogs began freely eating the feed. It didn’t take long and they were there every day. Then I put up the fence posts, but with no fencing. At first the hogs were a little skittish, but it wasn’t long and they ignored the posts. Then I began putting the fence up, but I left the gate off. Again, the hogs were skittish at first, but soon realized they could come and go freely, and before long, they were devouring the free food with a vengeance. Then, one day when the hogs were aggressively consuming the vittles, I slammed the gate closed.”
Ladies and gentlemen, I submit that what the old trapper did to the wild hogs is exactly what our soon-to-be oppressors are doing to us! What is worse, most Americans seem about as oblivious to the whole thing as that bunch of pigs. For anyone who is paying attention, however, the signs of growing enslavement are everywhere.

How Glenn Beck skewered Debra Medina. Sarah Palin also supported the Bilderberg candidate, Rick Perry:
From: Wall Street Journal, March 3
Perry Rolls to Victory in Texas Primary
Mrs. Medina, a nurse from south Texas who favors replacing property taxes with sales taxes, burst into the statewide political scene through her strong performances at two debates. But she fumbled a question about whether the federal government was involved in the 9/11 attacks.
It is incredible to realise that it has become the norm for young men to grow up watching videos of trafficked women being abused for their amusement. It is legitimised by the silence of the media, education system and religious groups, who rarely denounce it.

WARNING!! DISTURBING MATERIAL
Shelley Lubben (left) believed she was ready to shoot her first porn film. She was in for a shock: ‘When I walked in, it’s like a dark satanic anointing just fell on me. It was creepy, it was dark, it was eerie, and it was nothing like prostitution. I knew I was in the devil’s territory; this was the final frontier of Satan.’
During the little satanic ritual that followed she hit rock bottom: ‘I sold what was left of my heart, mind and femininity to the porn industry and the woman and person in me died completely on set.’
Then something remarkable began to happen; Shelley’s survival instincts kicked in and she re-connected with the Christian God of her childhood and, after taking a long and slow period of rehab to recover from her ordeal, she started on a crusade to expose the reality of porn.
She has marketed herself as a charismatic public figure in the televangelist style, telling her life story in a confessional manner as an entertaining way to deliver her message. The hub of her operation is the Pink Cross, a charity that launches fierce grassroots activism and collects data on the industry.
There is one overriding truth to Shelley’s work; behind whatever thin veil of glamour they might masquerade with: porn stars are prostitutes. Delete any notion in your mind of a glamorous ‘porn star’ now.
Using Shelley’s research, I have written this article with the hope that it will act as a wake up call to men in the western world with an addiction to a quite pathetic act; self-pleasure to film footage of prostitutes at work.

A psychologist asks: Have consumerism, suburbanization and a malevolent corporate-government partnership so beaten us down that we no longer have the will to save ourselves
Can people become so broken that truths of how they are being screwed do not “set them free” but instead further demoralize them? Has such a demoralization happened in the United States?
Do some totalitarians actually want us to hear how we have been screwed because they know that humiliating passivity in the face of obvious oppression will demoralize us even further?
What forces have created a demoralized, passive, dis-couraged U.S. population?
[…]
Yes. It is called the “abuse syndrome.” How do abusive pimps, spouses, bosses, corporations, and governments stay in control? They shove lies, emotional and physical abuses, and injustices in their victims’ faces, and when victims are afraid to exit from these relationships, they get weaker. So the abuser then makes their victims eat even more lies, abuses, and injustices, resulting in victims even weaker as they remain in these relationships.
Does knowing the truth of their abuse set people free when they are deep in these abuse syndromes?
No. For victims of the abuse syndrome, the truth of their passive submission to humiliating oppression is more than embarrassing; it can feel shameful — and there is nothing more painful than shame. When one already feels beaten down and demoralized, the likely response to the pain of shame is not constructive action, but more attempts to shut down or divert oneself from this pain. It is not likely that the truth of one’s humiliating oppression is going to energize one to constructive actions.
[…]
When people become broken, they cannot act on truths of injustice. Furthermore, when people have become broken, more truths about how they have been victimized can lead to shame about how they have allowed it. And shame, like fear, is one more way we become even more psychologically broken.
U.S. citizens do not actively protest obvious injustices for the same reasons that people cannot leave their abusive spouses: They feel helpless to effect change. The more we don’t act, the weaker we get. And ultimately to deal with the painful humiliation over inaction in the face of an oppressor, we move to shut-down mode and use escape strategies such as depression, substance abuse, and other diversions [sex, football – ed.], which further keep us from acting. This is the vicious cycle of all abuse syndromes.
[…]
When human beings feel too terrified and broken to actively protest, they may stage a “passive-aggressive revolution” by simply getting depressed, staying drunk, and not doing anything — this is one reason why the Soviet empire crumbled. However, the diseasing/medicalizing of rebellion and drug “treatments” have weakened the power of even this passive-aggressive revolution.
Television: In his book Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television (1978), Jerry Mander (after reviewing totalitarian critics such as George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, Jacques Ellul, and Ivan Illich) compiled a list of the “Eight Ideal Conditions for the Flowering of Autocracy.”
Mander claimed that television helps create all eight conditions for breaking a population. Television, he explained, (1) occupies people so that they don’t know themselves — and what a human being is; (2) separates people from one another; (3) creates sensory deprivation; (4) occupies the mind and fills the brain with prearranged experience and thought; (5) encourages drug use to dampen dissatisfaction (while TV itself produces a drug-like effect, this was compounded in 1997 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration relaxing the rules of prescription-drug advertising); (6) centralizes knowledge and information; (7) eliminates or “museumize” other cultures to eliminate comparisons; and (8) redefines happiness and the meaning of life.

Alex Jones is in trouble, and it’s much worse than I had thought.
It looks like a lack of moral character has split the main resistance to the one-world government / New World Order — if this is even just mostly true.
It looks like most will just blame Alex, but it wasn’t just Alex. Along with the abuser/manipulator were the many enablers, who knew what was going on but didn’t stand up to him until now….
There is a war on for our minds and our country, but that doesn’t justify manipulative control over fellow humans. Nip it in the bud: “deal with a problem when it is still small, before it can grow into something serious.”
And saying ‘NO!’ to abuse and manipulation at the get go makes it easier for the abuser/manipulator to admit he’s wrong. Alex is a ‘Christian.’ Now, it’s going to be really hard for him to get right with all. Oh boy!
And if he doesn’t apologize and come clean (which he must do for his own rightness with God and people), many will not forgive him, which will keep this split going.
I would blame much of this on the doctrine that is destroying America: once-saved-always-saved — every born-again believer goes to heaven no matter what — which I counter at ONEcanhappen with Who-Goes-To-Heaven Scriptures — Narrow is the Way.

I’m standing at the entrance to Bohemian Grove,
a secret society where our ‘conservative’ leaders ‘worship[ed]’:
both President George Bushes
and President Reagan
in front of the 30-foot stone owl
during the Cremation of Care mock human sacrifice.
There is no way I would infiltrate.
And incidentally, this was off-season.
Staying nearby in Petaluma,
I just had to see the entrance.
