Delta Employees Smuggled Guns Onto Planes for 5 Years!

More proof that the naked body scanners have been an unnecessary, dehumanizing, police state scheme (see links below). Reports of this incident now tell the public that the workers aren’t screened. Doing so, one expert admitted, would require massive expenditure and airport construction.
This guy was carrying ammo with the guns too.

Prosecutor: Delta Employees Smuggled Guns Onto Planes ‘for Years’

Dec. 24, 2014

A plot by at least two current and former Delta Air Lines workers to smuggle guns onboard flights traveling between Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and New York City’s John F. Kennedy and LaGuardia International airports was an “egregious breach” of American air traffic security, Brooklyn District Attorney Kenneth Thompson said Tuesday.

Former Delta employee Mark Henry, 45, who was fired in 2010 for abusing the airline’s buddy pass system, received the guns from 31-year-old Eugene Harvey, a Delta luggage handler in Atlanta who has since been fired as a result of the investigation. According to a statement from the Brooklyn district attorney, once Henry cleared security, Henry met up with Harvey inside the airport and the two allegedly exchanged the guns for cash. …

Thompson said investigators believe Henry had been smuggling guns onto planes for at least five years while using employee companion passes and allegedly transferred 16 weapons — including four 9 mm pistols, a .380-caliber pistol and ammunition and magazines — on Dec. 10 alone. …

The Brooklyn district attorney estimated that between May 2014 and December 2014, Henry took guns on about 20 commercial airliner flights between the two cities, but wasn’t discovered until Dec. 10.

(video) The Desecration of Charlton Heston — "I just don't understand the SPIRIT OF PATHETICNESS that is taking everything over" – Alex Jones

After seeing Alex talk about it, when I first saw Jim Carrey’s satirical music video, “Cold Dead Hand,” I shuddered! I thought this was so despicable that I didn’t even post it. It really is a desecration of Charlton Heston. But a ‘Christian’ said how much she likes Jim Carrey, and wasn’t even phased after I showed her this video, so I decided to address this subject more. I just now posted more Carrey exposé videos (linked below), and now this one, with the disgusting link above.
Those of you who are ‘Christians’ and think guns are evil should realize that Jesus told his disciples to buy swords, which at least two of them did carry. Total pacifism is not Christian (neither is warmongering, the other extreme). Also, the 2nd Amendment isn’t about hunting. It’s about protecting the United States from becoming a tyranny, like what happened in England. Without the 2nd Amendment, we would probably already be fully in the NWO, with Satan in charge.
America is on its last leg.

Santa Claus: The Great Imposter — “Ho! Ho! Ho! I Am God” — Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omnipotent | Santa = Satan; elves = demons | Saint Nicholas never existed?

. . . every one of us shall give account of himself to. . . (Romans 14:12)

Santa.

He’s making a list, He’s checking it twice
He’s gonna find out Who’s naughty or nice
.

Excerpts from:

.

“A wink of his eye, and a twist of his head,
soon led me to know I had nothing to dread.”

Twas’ the Night Before Christmas, Clement C. Moore

THE CONCERN And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea. John 9:42

.
Who, REALLY, is this man we affectionately call Santa Claus?

What do we REALLY know about Santa?

Is Santa just a jolly, harmless, friendly fellow?

Or is there something or someone else hiding behind jolly ol’ St. Nick?

___________

The first major problem in the Santa Claus saga is the person of St. Nicholas. There is very little evidence, if any, that the man St. Nicholas actually existed.

Nicholas’ existence is not attested by any historical document, so nothing certain is known of his life except that he was probably bishop of Myra in the fourth century. . .

(“Nicholas, Saint” Encyclopaedia Britannica 99)Nicholas, Saint (lived 4th century), Christian prelate, patron saint of Russia, traditionally associated with Christmas celebrations. The accounts of his life are confused and historically unconfirmed.
(“Nicholas, Saint” Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 99)

Unfortunately, very little is known about the real St. Nicholas. Countless legends have grown up around this very popular saint, but very little historical evidence is available. (Del Re, Gerard and Patricia. The Christmas Almanack. New York: Random House, 2004, p. 130)

In 1969, the final nail in the coffin to the feeble fable of St. Nicholas was officially hammered down. Despite the fact, St. Nicholas is among Roman Catholicism’s most popular and venerated “Saints,” Pope Paul VI officially decreed the feast of Saint Nicholas removed from the Roman Catholic calendar. UPI Wire Services reported that St. Nicholas and forty other saints were deleted because “of doubt that they ever existed.” (“Pope Marches 40 Saints Off Official Church Calendar.” UPI Wire Services. <www.stnicholascenter.org/Brix?pageID=389>)

__________

Previously, we established the peculiar fact that today’s Santa Claus and St. Nicholas are not the same. They never have been. Santa Claus is dressed in a long shaggy beard, furs, short, burly and obese. The legends of St. Nicholas portrayed a thin, tall, neatly dressed man in religious apparel. You could not possibly find two different characters.

If Nicholas, the ascetic bishop of fourth-century Asia Manor, could see Santa Claus, he would not know who he was. (Del Re, Gerard and Patricia. The Christmas Almanack. New York: Random House, 2004, pp. 138,141)So the legends of Saint Nicholas afford but a slight clew to the origin of Santa Klaus,–alike, indeed, in name but so unlike in all other respects. (Walsh, William S. The Story of Santa Klaus. Detroit: Gale Research Company, 1970, p. 54)

The startling fact is, Santa Claus is not the Bishop St. Nicholas – but his Dark Helper!

In certain German children’s games, the Saint Nicholas figure itself is the Dark Helper, a devil who wants to punish children, but is stopped from doing so by Christ. (Renterghem, Tony van. When Santa Was a Shaman. St. Paul: Llewellyn Publications, 1995, p. 105)

Black Pete, the ‘grandfather’ of our modern Santa Claus. Known in Holland as Zwarte Piet, this eighteenth-century German version, is—like his ancient shamanic ancestor—still horned, fur-clad, scary, and less than kind to children. Although portrayed as the slave helper of Saint Nicholas, the two are, in many villages, blended into one character. This figure often has the name Nikolass or Klaus, but has the swarthy appearance of the Dark Helper. (Renterghem, Tony van. When Santa Was a Shaman. St. Paul: Llewellyn Publications, 1995, p. 98)

___________

While Santa and Claus may be disguising their real meaning – there is no disguising St. Nick. He is a well-known character.

Old Nick: A well-known British name of the Devil. It seems probable that this name is derived from the Dutch Nikken, the devil… (Encyclopedia of Occultism and Parapsychology, p.650)

Nick, the devil. (Walter W. Sleay, Concise Dictionary of English Etymology, p. 304)

Devil: Besides the name Satan, he is also called Beelzebub, Lucifer . . . and in popular or rustic speech by many familiar terms as Old Nick . . . (Oxford English Dictionary Vol III D-E)

___________

Santa’s Little Helpers?

Santa has some cute little helpers called elves. Webster’s Dictionary has an interesting definition for the friendly elf:

ELF
1. A wandering spirit; a fairy; a hobgoblin; an imaginary being which our rude ancestors supposed to inhabit unfrequented places, and in various ways to affect mankind. . .
2. An evil spirit; a devil.
(Webster’s Dictionary “elf”)

____________

Oh, how he loves the little children.

All the children of the world.
Red and yellow, black and white,
They are precious in his site.
Santa loves the little children of the world.

They stand in line to sit in his loving lap. They get their picture with Santa. They tell Santa their most intimate secrets.

They love their Santa – because he first loved them.

Is there something slightly familiar with this picture?

13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Mark 10:13-14

We love him, because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19

Satan is accomplishing EXACTLY what he desired.

Satan’s ultimate goal is worship. And millions of children are lovingly giving him their God-given child-like faith. They love their Santa! They worship their Santa!

___________

Santa is All Knowing – He is Omniscient

He knows. . .ALL

He KNOWS when you’re awake
He KNOWS if you’ve been good or bad.”

___________

Santa is Everywhere – He is Omnipresent

Santa miraculously visits millions of children, all across the world, in one “quick as a wink” night. “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. . .” (1 Cor. 15:52) – Santa appears – all over the world!

___________

Santa is All-Powerful – He is Omnipotent

To the average child – Santa can do anything. The following are actual letters to Santa from children, taken from a local newspaper.

___________

Their Santa NEVER fails!

In one night, the all-powerful, Santa delivers millions and millions of gifts to children all around the world. Who could do that? Now, who REALLY believes that? That little child who has been preached to about Santa. That is who. They believe it. Just ask one. Nothing is too hard for their Santa. If the Christian world had, even a small drop of the faith the average child has in Santa – we’d have revival overnight!

Isn’t it amazing what these little children actually believe “with all their heart” about their great god and saviour Santa?

___________

. . . every one of us shall give account of himself to. . . (Romans 14:12)

Santa.

He’s making a list, He’s checking it twice
He’s gonna find out Who’s naughty or nice

So then every one of us shall give account of himself to. . . Santa?

Hummingbirds. Even though they are the smallest birds on earth, and the smallest of all warm-blooded creatures, they can still fly over 30 MPH, fly backward, and at birth, weigh less than a post-it note!

These amazing creatures flap their wings up to 80 times a SECOND, allowing them to hover over flowers filled with nectar.

They are able to determine sugar content, and only consume nectar that is at least 10% sugar. Less than that could not sustain their super-fast metabolism, with their heartbeat of around 1200 times a minute!

With this in mind, hummingbirds typically would not be able to survive a long cold night. HOWEVER, they “happen” to have a built-in mechanism called “Torpor” that goes into effect as they sleep, shutting down their metabolism to 1/15th the normal rate. It effectively slows down their heart rate from around 1,200 beats per minute… to 35 beats per minute.

Did this tiny creature evolve by chance? Or was he intricately designed and formed with purpose? Such beauty is often overlooked in today’s society, but if we only stop to consider the intricate details of a hummingbird, we can appreciate God’s infinite “wonders without number”.

THE ‘24’ EFFECT: How ‘Liberal Hollywood’ Carried Water For Torture — Study: “MOST OBSERVERS, even those within professional circles, have unfortunately been INFLUENCED by the media’s colorful (and artificial) view of interrogation as almost always involving hostility”

TalmudVision (TV) is turning America to the dark side!

From: Variety

The ‘24’ Effect: How ‘Liberal Hollywood’ Carried Water For Torture

those seeking to defend the Bush administration in light of the recent Torture Report — and that’s mostly conservatives — could hardly have had a better ally than the images of torture in TV and movies, particularly in the face of “ticking-bomb scenarios.”

Fox’s “24,” naturally comes to mind, and the movie “Zero Dark Thirty,” which was criticized for its depiction of torture….

The practice has been employed in other series as well – such as “Sons of Anarchy,” “Scandal” and “Homeland” – and countless movies, with the bad guys using it (see various Quentin Tarantino films) as well as the ostensible good guys. …

Mayer also noted that an advisory panel to the U.S. intelligence community studied the issue and concluded “most observers, even those within professional circles, have unfortunately been influenced by the media’s colorful (and artificial) view of interrogation as almost always involving hostility.”

On Saturday coming home from our hunting trip @danielmcgeehee Bobby Williams and I stopped in Jekyll Island Georgia and ate lunch at the Jekyll Island hotel (shrimp & grits)

We walked into the “Federal Reserve” room where the “system” of the Private Central Bank was formulated at a secret meeting of the Banksters of the day in 1910 – that would result in President Woodrow Wilson signing the FED into existence 23 Dec1913 – This Private Central Bank is the primary source of all Americas problems for over 100 years as they own both sides of the Isle – May God deliver us from this wickedness

The Last real President (American) we had was JFK – He was killed because He was about to shut the “system” down

Rand Paul: Some 'Christians' are "Too Eager for War" — "Jesus stood up in a different sort of way … 'Blessed are the peacemakers' not 'blessed are the war-makers'"

From: motherjones.com

Rand Paul: Republicans Are “Too Eager for War”

—By David Corn | Fri Jun. 27, 2014

It was only a year ago that Paul described the Republican Party as overly enthusiastic for war. During a little-noticed interview with the Christian Broadcast Network, Paul remarked, “Part of Republicans’ problems—and frankly, to tell you the truth, some in the evangelical Christian movement—I think [they] have appeared too eager for war.” This was a stark assessment of his own party.

Paul went further, noting that these Republicans and evangelicals were not in sync with Jesus:

When people come to me and they’re lobbying for ratcheting up some sort of bellicose policy towards one country, even if it’s a bad country, I tell them that and when I read the New Testament, that when I read about Jesus, I don’t see him involved, he wasn’t really involved with the wars of his days.  And, in fact, people rebuked him for not being [what] they wanted. They wanted somebody to stand up to the Romans. He stood up in a different sort of way, but he didn’t organize coalitions and guerrilla bands and arm them.

IT’S NOW ILLEGAL IN ILLINOIS TO FILM COPS

Or any government officials, for that matter

by STEVE WATSON | INFOWARS.COM | DECEMBER 10, 2014

An amendment to a Senate bill in Illinois has been overwhelmingly passed to ensure that recording police officers and government officials is now a felony.

The Amendment to Senate Bill 1342 was stealthily introduced on the back of an unrelated piece of legislation last week. It essentially reestablishes a completely unconstitutional eavesdropping law that was previously overturned by The Supreme Court in March for being too draconian.

The amendment has stripped away safeguards to free speech rights from the original legislation and instituted a blanket ban on recording officials in public. It was passed by both the Illinois House and the Senate, with huge majorities, within two days of its introduction.

A post at watchdog website IllinoisPolicy.org notes that the bill is designed to prevent people from documenting interactions with cops on their cell phones by making it a class 3 felony to “eavesdrop” on city and state officials including police officers, police, an attorney general, an assistant attorney general, a state’s attorney, an assistant state’s attorney or a judge.

The new amendment legislates its way around the ‘reasonable expectation of privacy’ standard in law by refraining from defining it, and merely states that recording any “oral communication between 2 or more persons” is now illegal.

A class 3 felony is punishable by a prison sentence of two to four years. The bill also outlines that it is now a class 4 felony to record a private citizen in such circumstances. The crime is punishable by one to three years in prison.

The vaguely worded legislation states:

(a) Eavesdropping, for a first offense, is a Class 4 felony (from Ch. 38, par. 14-4) and, for a second or subsequent offense, is a Class 3 felony.

(b) The eavesdropping of an oral conversation or an electronic communication of any

law enforcement officer, State’s Attorney, Assistant State’s Attorney, the Attorney General, Assistant Attorney General, or a judge, while in the performance of his or her official duties, if not authorized by this Article or proper court order, is a Class 3 felony, and for a second or subsequent offenses, is a Class 2 felony

Jacob Huebert, Senior Attorney at Liberty Justice Center, notes “There’s only one apparent reason for imposing a higher penalty on people who record police in particular: to make people especially afraid to record police.”

Huebert also notes that the legislation could impact the widely proposed move to implement body cameras for all police officers

“Police may argue that using body cameras to record encounters with citizens outside of “public” places would violate the law, as citizens have not consented to being recorded.” he writes.

Horrific Torture Report Shows Why Much Of The World Considers America To Be The Nazis Of The 21st Century

By Michael Snyder, on December 9th, 2014

Good guys do not sadistically torture people.  Good guys do not threaten to sexually abuse the family members of their prisoners, and they certainly do not forcibly ram things up the rear ends of those in their custody.  One of the greatest dangers that our country is facing is the fact that we are not passing on what it means to be “American” to future generations.  Once upon a time, Americans were the good guys.  But now, instead of fighting the Nazis we are behaving just like them.  The details of the Senate torture report that was just released are almost too horrifying to talk about.  We must talk about them though, because we are losing our soul as a nation.  So please be warned – this article is going to be quite graphic.  The reason for this is so that we can all take a long, hard, honest look at what we have become.  After everything that has happened, top politicians from both political parties are still standing up and defending those that conducted and authorized this torture.  The rest of the world is watching this, and the number of people that are absolutely convinced that America is pure evil is growing by the day.  By not loudly condemning this torture and bringing the perpetrators to justice, we add fuel to the fire of those that hate this country, and we make it more likely that Americans will be targets of violence all over the planet. …

When I was growing up, I was taught that Americans never torture their prisoners.  That was something that the Russians, the Nazis, the Chinese and the North Koreans did.  We were the “good guys”, and so I was taught that we always treated our prisoners humanely.

Oh how things have changed.

The following is a summary of some of the details from the Senate torture report that just came out.  As a nation, we should be deeply, deeply ashamed of what our government has been doing….

Bush Officials Step Up To Blast Torture Report Before It’s Out

The 500-page summary of the report, set to be released Tuesday, is understood to suggest that the CIA’s use of techniques like waterboarding did not produce significant intelligence and that CIA officers misled those responsible for the program’s oversight, including higher-level agency officials, the White House and Congress.

Speaking to The New York Times on Monday, former Vice President Dick Cheney, a fierce defender of the government’s use of torture, said that the idea that the CIA misled the White House “is just a crock.”

CIA officers “are patriots, and whatever the report says, if it diminishes their contributions to our country, it is way off base,” George W. Bush said Sunday in an interview on CNN.

TOP NSA WHISTLEBLOWER: FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS GONE ROGUE
Former code breaker reveals dire state of “pre-fascist” America
by MIKAEL THALEN | INFOWARS.COM | DECEMBER 9, 2014

Former NSA technical director turned whistleblower William Binney joined the Alex Jones Show Monday to break down America’s increasingly swift descent into a fascist state.

[youtube=youtube.com/watch?v=TxTkeSa0QlI]

Binney, a 36-year veteran of the NSA, detailed multiple aspects of the agency’s current agenda, including its “treasonous” role in lying to judges in order to get unconstitutional domestic spying programs legitimized.

“When the government gets boxed into a corner, where they’re threatened by the test of a constitutionality of any of the programs they’re running, they lie to the courts,” Binney said. “And the courts are letting them get away with it.”

“They are allowing perjury by the government to determine what in fact is tested in the courts in terms of constitutionality. That in my book, is what treason is all about. You are fundamentally going after the foundations of this government and corrupting it. That to me is real treason.”

Despite tireless claims that such programs are used to protect the public from foreign threats, countless leaks have revealed the agency’s true endgame: Total population control.

“It’s being used to set up the way and means to control the population,” Binney said. “I’ve been referring to it as the new Stasi agency because that’s exactly what the Stasi did, they had files on everyone…”

In Stasi fashion, the NSA has begun feverishly spying on its own, fearing further leaks from a growing number of disgruntled employees.

“I know that they’ve instituted programs that get agency employees to spy on one another, which simply means it’s just like East Germany,” Binney said. “You got your neighbors spying on you and here its your neighbors you’re working with and trying to do the job (with). That makes a very unhealthy atmosphere to work in.”

Although many employees have begun to recognize the agency’s criminal behavior, fear of retaliation by the Obama Administration, which has charged more legitimate whistleblowers with espionage than all other presidents combined since 1917, has kept more potential truth tellers at bay.

Binney himself was a victim to such government overreach when more than a dozen FBI agents attempted to intimidate him into silence during a 2007 raid on his home.

“It’s really strange to be coming out of your shower in the morning and to have somebody pointing a gun at you, so your looking at the end of the barrel of a pistol…” Binney said of the incident. “We were trying to work within the government all the way up to then but they didn’t want to do that… they didn’t want anyone in the government to know what they were doing.”

Binney also mentioned the extreme capabilities of the agency’s new Utah data center, where Infowars reporters were confronted by NSA security last year.

“That’s the whole point of why they had to build Bluffdale with all that storage,” Binney stated. “It wasn’t for metadata, it was for content of communications like all of your emails and phone conversations…”

“If you wanted to put together all of the relationships of everybody in the world on metadata relations and build those kind of graphs… then you could do that and store it in a room 20 foot by 40 foot… and you could keep it there for 50 years perhaps… The real point was that the hundreds of thousands of square feet of storage was needed for the content and that’s where the bulk of data is.”

According to multiple insiders, the most troublesome of the NSA’s activities lies in their blackmail of government officials.

Binney made specific mention of the FBI’s targeting of former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. After coming out against Wall Street’s Bush era exploits, the former governor found himself embroiled in a prostitution scandal that ended his career. The FBI’s access to NSA data through the Patriot Act undoubtedly provided the government with the tools needed to destroy Spitzer.

Fellow NSA whistleblower Russel Tice has also alleged similar incidents, reporting that Hillary Clinton, Senators John McCain, Diane Feinstein and Barack Obama were spied on during his 2002 to 2005 tenure at the agency.

Unfortunately, these much-needed leaks have in some ways worked to embolden arrogant members of the NSA’s leadership, leading Binney to believe that the best hope for constitutional restoration may lie in the spy agency’s pocket book.

“The one thing that could really hurt them is cutting their financial money, cutting the budget that they have,” Binney said. “That’s why they got so nervous about Representatives Amash and Conyers and their coalition group to defund NSA last July.”

“I would advocate hitting your state and local government employees and making sure that they stand up and resist this and also hit all your representatives in Congress and if they don’t start going along we need to have a unified effort to fire them, get rid of them.”

Civil liberties advocates worldwide have begun doing just that, using politics, encryption and the First Amendment to push back against the federal government’s nightmarish surveillance future.

RAND PAUL: JOHN MCCAIN WANTS ANOTHER 15 WARS — "If I'm ever commander-in-chief, I will not want to take the country to war"

RAND PAUL: JOHN MCCAIN WANTS ANOTHER 15 WARS
“If I’m ever commander-in-chief, I will not want to take the country to war”

by STEVE WATSON | INFOWARS.COM | DECEMBER 3, 2014

As he announced his intention to run for reelection in the Senate, Rand Paul declared he will run for “less war”, distancing himself from the traditional Republican foreign policy platform by adding that his colleague John McCain wishes to see the US involved in wars with 15 more countries.

Appearing at a Wall Street Journal sponsored event, Paul described himself as “one of the least reluctant to go to war” in the Senate.

“If I’m ever commander-in-chief, I will not want to take the country to war,” the Kentucky Republican added, saying “It will be the last resort and only when the country is united.”

RUSSIA’S PREPARATIONS TO FIGHT AND WIN A NUCLEAR WAR

Kudos to Michael Snyder this week for joining the fight to warn the world about the growing Russian threat. As usually, he always crafts his writings as “10 or 20 Signs” of something which end up being a bit contrived for the numbers sake. Still, here are some of the better excerpts from “10 Signs That Russia Is Preparing To Fight (And Win) A Nuclear War With The United States.”

If the United States and Russia fought a nuclear war, who would win? You might be surprised by the answer. Under the Obama administration, the rapidly aging U.S. strategic nuclear arsenal has been shrinking [and they have been deliberately disarming what we do have, even though the Russians are cheating on those same arms control treaties]. Meanwhile, the Russians have been developing an entirely new generation of bombers, submarines and missiles that have the capability of delivering an absolutely crippling first strike. At this point, most Americans consider a full-scale nuclear war to be inconceivable [due to all the anti-war and anti-nuclear propaganda].

But in Russia attitudes are completely different. To the Russians, the United States is enemy number one these days and the Russians are feverishly preparing for a potential military showdown. Of course the Russians don’t actually want to have to resort to nuclear war. [Very naive of Snyder. In reality, the Soviet Union never fell and the Continuing Soviets continually practice for a pre-emptive nuclear strike on US military forces]

A lot of Americans are still operating under the faulty assumption that the doctrine of “mutually assured destruction” still applies. The thinking was that both sides had so many nuclear missiles that a launch by one side would guarantee the destruction of both parties. [That’s never been true, including the myth of a nuclear winter.]

But since that time, so much has changed. [Because the US is actively inviting a first strike against our forces by disarming while Russia cheats—and we don’t even have a treaty with the Chinese for them to cheat on, so it’s full steam ahead for all the major nuclear powers except the US.] For one, the U.S. nuclear arsenal is far, far smaller than it was back then. Back in 1967, the U.S. military possessed more than 31,000 strategic nuclear warheads. Now, we only have 1,642 deployed, and that number is scheduled to be further reduced to about 1,500. Sadly, reducing the size of our nuclear arsenal by close to 95 percent is not enough for anti-nuke crusader Barack Obama. He has spoken of unilaterally reducing the size of our strategic nuclear arsenal down to just 300 warheads.

During this same time period, the Russians have been developing some very impressive stealth delivery systems which have the capability of hitting targets inside the United States within just minutes of an order being issued. This is particularly true of their submarine-launched missiles. The newest Russian subs have the ability to approach our coastlines without us even knowing that they are there… And if the Russians have an anti-ballistic missile system that can intercept the limited number of rockets that we can launch in return, they may be able to escape relatively unscathed. In order for “mutually assured destruction” [MAD] to work, we have to see the Russian missiles coming and have enough time to order a launch of our own.

That’s called Launch on Warning, wherein we launch upon satellite warning of a Russian/Chinese attack. When you use launch on warning our missiles are out of their silos by the time the incoming attacker’s missiles hit—striking empty silos. Whereas the one who launches second can target the enemy’s nuclear facilities that are still operational.

Mutually Assured Destruction was sold to the world based on the flawed premise that nuclear powers would hit each other’s cities and kill everyone. But this is simply not anyone’s first strike strategy. Nobody wants to destroy the world, but rather kill military targets and then blackmail the world into submission. The winner can then run their version of global government.

The US knows this and is setting up our military for unilateral destruction—by issuing Presidential Decision Directive 60 (PDD-60) in 1997 instructing our nuclear forces to “not rely on Launch on Warning” but to be prepared to “absorb a nuclear first strike and retaliate afterwards,” which appears suicidal. But our leaders aren’t suicidal, they intend to survive and win a nuclear war. That’s why they are building and modernizing all their deep underground bunkers.

They will use the decapitation of US military forces and missiles to drive all of us into accepting a militarized global government and then bring out heretofore secret defense and weapons systems to win the war (which won’t be easy) under the banner of the New World Order. That, in a nutshell, is why the US isn’t doing anything to stop North Korea (the probable trigger event), or deter Chinese and Russian disarmament. So, here are Snyder’s 10 signs that Russia is preparing to fight (and win) a nuclear war with the US:

#1 Russia is spending an enormous amount of money to develop the PAK DA Strategic Bomber. Not a lot is known about this stealth bomber at this time.

#2 Russian nuclear bombers have been regularly buzzing areas in northern Europe and along the coast of Alaska. The Russians appear to be brazenly testing NATO defenses.

#3 Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu says that Russian nuclear bombers will now conduct regular patrols “in the western Atlantic and eastern Pacific, as well as the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico“.

#4 Russia is constructing an anti-ballistic missile system which will supposedly be superior to anything that the U.S. currently has. [True. All their interceptors have explosive warheads. Ours do not.] The S-500 missile is intended to be capable of intercepting intercontinental ballistic missiles when combined with radar input from the likes of the new A-100 AWACS aircraft. It is supposed to be able to track and shoot at up to 10 supersonic targets at any one time at heights of up to 40km.

#5 Russia recently successfully test launched a new submarine-based intercontinental ballistic missile…The RSM-54 intercontinental ballistic missile Sineva (NATO code name SS-N-23 Skiff) is part of the D-9RM launch system.

#6 Russia already possesses super silent nuclear attack submarines that are virtually undetectable when submerged… That means that the Russians are able to sail right up to our coastlines and launch nukes whenever they want. [He’s confusing attack subs with ballistic missile subs. The super silent attack subs are sub hunters, NOT ballistic missile subs.]

#7 Russian media outlets are reporting that 60 percent of all Russian nuclear missiles will have radar-evading capability by 2016. [There’s no evidence of this yet, nor of their claimed maneuvering warheads, which is very difficult to do at many times the speed of sound and high reentry temps]

#8 For the first time ever, Russia has more strategic nuclear warheads deployed than the United States does… Russia now has 1,643 warheads deployed on intercontinental ballistic missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles and heavy bombers. The United States has 1,642, said the fact sheet released Wednesday. [The US has zero direct knowledge of what the Russians have in terms of missiles and warheads. We have never been allowed to inspect all of their facilities, notably the huge and secret underground Yamatau Mountain complex. You can bet the true number of warheads is many times higher.] The warhead count for the Russians, based the Sept. 1 report required under the 2010 New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), shows an increase of 131 warheads since the last declaration on March 1. The U.S. reported a warhead increase of 57 during the same period. It is not clear why the warhead numbers increased. [US numbers of Russian warheads are simply an assumption that the Russians are in compliance with all treaties—a laughable idea meant only to deceive the American public. Notice that even when the US says the Russian count has increased rather than decreased, they never protest or explain how they know this, and no one asks.]

#9 Russia has a massive advantage over the United States and NATO when it comes to tactical nuclear weaponsNATO countries have only 260 tactical nuclear weapons in the ETO. The United States has 200 bombs with a total capacity of 18 megatons. They are located on six air bases in Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Turkey. France has 60 more atomic bombs. That is pretty much it. Russia, according to conservative estimates, has 5,000 pieces of different classes of TNW – from Iskander warheads to torpedo, aerial and artillery warheads! The US has 300 tactical B-61 bombs on its own territory, but this does not change the situation against the backdrop of such imbalance. The Americans are well aware of this. They were convinced before that Russia would never rise again… [Nonsense. The US government always knew that the fall of the Soviet Union was a deception but they covered for the Russians.]

#10 Russian President Vladimir Putin has initiated a huge “weapons modernization program” that is projected to cost the equivalent of 540 billion dollars…

That includes tens of new ballistic missiles each year (SS-24s or Topol M road mobile missiles—which cannot be targeted), while the US just removed all of the triple warheads from our remaining 400 Minuteman III missiles, reducing them to 1 warhead each.

The China Threat: We have almost no firm intelligence on how many missiles and warheads the Chinese have, but the US estimate of a 100 is laughable, deliberately underplaying the China threat. The Chinese have over 3,000 miles of tunnels to hide their mobile missiles. Also from Snyder:

Just the other day the Chinese successfully tested a new submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missile… China’s JL-2 second-generation intercontinental-range submarine-launched ballistic missile, which has the ability to reach the continental USA, is already believed to be deployable by the People’s Liberation Army.

As I pointed out in prior years, the US will do anything to coverup or downplay the Chinese threat. The Chinese were even so bold as to infiltrate both the California coast (undetected during a naval exercise, no less) and the Gulf coast where they launched a ballistic missile into the sky which hundreds witnessed. The Pentagon tried to tell the public it was a jet contrail from an aircraft.

Snyder summarizes the deplorable state of public awareness, for which I fully blame the media and the government who purposely downplay these threats while they are in full preparation for nuclear war, both as a government and as individuals building private bunker-style shelters under their luxury homes in the Rockies.

Most Americans do not believe that any of this is a concern whatsoever. Most Americans just assume that a full-scale nuclear war is virtually impossible [and that if the government and media aren’t worried, it can’t be a real threat]. But the truth is that a successful first strike against the United States is more possible today than it ever has been before. Hopefully the American people will wake up to this reality before it is too late.

DEEPER ISSUES BEHIND THE FERGUSON RIOTS

There are many motives driving the latest Ferguson, MO unrest after the Grand Jury decided not to indict Officer Wilson. Some of it was justifiable frustration by the public about growing police dictatorial attitudes and thuggishness, some was irritation against the prosecutor’s manipulation of the grand jury, but the pillaging itself was largely criminal elements from the black community taking advantage to simply loot, pillage and destroy. Very little of this is actually about racial discrimination. This week, I’ll analyze the larger issues that aren’t going to be fixed by the establishment and which will give rise to even more social unrest and tyranny in America.

I won’t go into all the ongoing details of the unrest and destruction in Ferguson and across the country except to repeat some of the headlines: “Grand Jury refuses to indict”, “Protesters Overturn Barricades, Swarm Courthouse”, “Michael Brown’s Mother Collapses Outside Station”, “Traffic Blocked on Interstate”, “St. Louis Airport Shut Down”, “Cars Vandalized, Overturned”, “Store Robbed by Brown Looted”, “Businesses Destroyed and Burned” (mostly minority owned), “Ferguson Mayor Criticizes Delayed Deployment of National Guard”, “Protesters shut down CA freeway”, “3 NY Bridges Closed”, “45 arrested in Boston.” In short, it was as big a disaster and protest as had been predicted.

The mainstream media mostly fled the scene citing safety concerns due to harassment from the protesters themselves who disliked the way things were being reported. The best coverage by far was by Alex Jones’ team of gutsy reporters who stayed through it all filming away and broadcasting a running commentary. But here are the larger issues:

Looting and Authorities’ Refusal to Stop It: The authorities seemed more bent on tear gassing protestors than actively trying to deter or stop the looting and destruction of property. This was a case of the police not being aggressive enough against criminal behavior—the violence against innocent shop owners which is never justified by either racism or perceived lack of justice. As Gary North wrote,

 The looters and rioters in Ferguson have sent a message: the state is impotent when it comes to protecting life and property. Yet these two protections are basic to the theoretical justification for the state’s possession of a lawful monopoly of violence. The state of Missouri visibly shares this with looters. “Sorry; there is nothing much we can do.” The looters knew this, and they acted accordingly.

But, in fact, the police could have done a lot to stop looters, including putting out a public policy order that looters will be shot on sight by strategically placed rooftop snipers. These kinds of special declarations could have changed looter’s expectations of immunity and given armed shop owners the right to protect their property with deadly force. This is an important policy during mass looting where property owners cannot be expected to argue and confront would-be looters individually and go through the steps of determining if a threat to his life is present (the normal standard for use of deadly force). I know that’s improbable with the anti-gun mentality of public officials and even most police chiefs, but someday this growing permissiveness about looting will lead to major unrest and damage to society—and eventual vigilante backlash.

While I take a very strong view that police encounters with unarmed individuals need to be restricted to non-lethal means, mass criminal activity needs to be stopped quickly before it spreads—even with deadly force, if necessary. Looting is very contagious and trying to arrest masses of looters is nearly impossible without police outnumbering looters at least 2 to 1, and that puts a whole lot of policemen at risk inside a huge mob. A few warning shots and the real follow-on risk of being shot would make looting quickly cease. Deadly force should not be used against peaceful protests, but it is with looting because looters know they are in the wrong.

It was disturbing to read how some of the liberal mainstream media [Time.com] was openly justifying mob violence as a legitimate form of civil disobedience when “injustices” aren’t getting results from authorities. Attacking other innocent people is NEVER justified when government is the problem.

Growing Police Arrogance and Thuggishness: This is a very serious problem in America today, and it is at the core of growing public fear and distrust of police, especially among minorities where the highest concentration of crime and gang activity occurs. Liberals decry the statistics showing that black and Latino minorities have the highest rate of encounters with police—leading to charges of racial profiling, but most of the encounters and even profiling are justified. There’s nothing wrong with police being alert to markers of where the highest propensity for criminal activity exists, and watching for them. There is an undeniable high percentage of black and Latino males involved in drugs, gang and criminal activity in large urban areas, so the high percentage of police confrontations with those groups isn’t going to change by forcing police not to scrutinize these groups closely.

This awareness of crime markers, however, never justifies treating the entire class of minorities with disrespect during encounters that are not dangerous or criminal in nature. Badmouthing, foul language and cursing by police as they issue orders is totally inappropriate when beginning an encounter. It inflames and makes every situation worse. It was a major factor in the initial fist fight that ensued between Brown and Officer Wilson.

There’s also a real and pernicious militaristic and macho attitude among many in the police, especially those trained in SWAT tactics. Bad attitudes and habits spread widely within police ranks when not disciplined by the leaders. This leads to a “do as I say, and don’t question my authority” mentality among many in law enforcement today—even when they are dealing with minor infractions or with the elderly, women, children or pregnant people rather than saving it for suspected criminals.

To be sure, there are still plenty of courteous police around the nation, but the number of bad cops is increasing dramatically. The primary reason for this is the refusal of police chiefs and Sheriffs to curtail aggressive talk and behavior. Even worse, aggressive cops have seen their chiefs justify and protect bad behavior through sham “investigations” and cover-ups many times before. That’s what leads to this sense of immunity and arrogance that bad cops display.

I’ve got hundreds of files on innocent people’s encounters with aggressive police violating their rights. Invariably, when they complain or file suit against the police, the officers lie about the encounter. They concoct egregious and false scenarios claiming how the victim was attacking them that justified their aggressive tactics, when in fact it was just the opposite. Then it becomes the victim’s word against police, and that old “support your local police” attitude kicks in with prosecutors and judges. We all know now, as well, that it is a fact that corrupt police can and do plant drugs or a gun on a victim to justify an arrest or the death of an innocent subject after a deadly no-knock arrest goes bad.

But the highest blame goes to the courts who almost always refuse to sanction bad police behavior, hiding behind the worn-out excuse, “I’m not going to second guess the police.” What a cop-out! We’re not demanding they “guess” or “second-guess” at all, but make a concerted legal judgment about police behavior and justification of force. If the courts won’t judge aggressive behavior who will?

In fact the only times the courts will rule in favor of a victim of police abuse is when the victim has video or audio recordings so that police can be exposed in their lies—and that’s why police demand people not record their activities. Some of the most aggravated examples of police abuse occur against people who are filming them. Even when prosecuted based on recorded evidence, the result is hardly ever jail time for the cop. The taxpayer is forced to pay off the victim and the police chief and his cop go back to their jobs, gloating about dodging another bullet. Sadly, civilian police review boards rarely help, because they are appointed by mayors or city councils, and they make sure the majority are reliable defenders of police behavior.

All of this commentary very much relates to Officer Darren Wilson because we have video evidence of him displaying just this kind of dictatorial attitude in an encounter with a black citizen in 2013. Wilson was directed to investigate complaints about this person’s junky yard, but instead of being courteous, he starts talking about “putting your [expletive] in jail” if he doesn’t stop videoing the encounter, a clear abuse of authority. Here is Mike Arman’s recording of his encounter with Darren Wilson. It’s hard to hear what Wilson is saying, but the UK Guardian reported:

Video footage has emerged showing Darren Wilson – the police officer who shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black 18-year-old in Ferguson, Missouri – threatening and arresting a resident who refused to stop filming him with a cellphone. [a legal action]

Wilson is seen standing near his Ferguson police SUV and warning Mike Arman: “If you wanna take a picture of me one more time, I’m gonna lock your [expletive] up.” Arman, who had requested Wilson’s name, replies: “Sir, I’m not taking a picture, I’m recording this incident sir.” The officer then walks to the porch of Arman’s home and apprehends him, after telling him that he does not have the right to film.

What we see here is illegal conduct by Wilson—a false statement on the law and a wrongful demand to cease as the justification for a wrongful arrest. Did the police ever reprimand Wilson for this? No. Is it relevant to the Brown incident? Yes because it shows Wilson had a history of speaking derisively to blacks and ordering them around. This attitude appears to be what triggers the violent confrontation with Brown.

 The Grand Jury Decision: There was widely conflicting evidence presented to the grand jury, and the prosecutor was clearly trying to skew the proceedings toward no indictment. While he did bring forth all witnesses on both sides, he showed favoritism toward those tending to justify Wilson’s behavior. The prosecutor also failed to present any evidence of police investigative irregularities that looked like intent to cover-up:

Initial interviews of Wilson were not recorded, photographs of the crime scene which would have confirmed the distance at which Brown was shot from Wilson’s vehicle were not taken, nor were photos immediately taken of Wilson’s condition upon returning to the station. Important measurements were not taken. The same questionable excuse was given in both cases—dead battery in camera. What are the chances for two official cameras having dead batteries on that day?

There was a major issue about Officer Wilson’s claim about multiple misfires of his weapon. Wilson said that in his grappling with Brown at his cruiser’s window, with Brown reaching in and struggling for control of his weapon, that Wilson’s gun misfire twice in trying to shoot Brown. But I find this highly suspicious. Wilson was using a semi-auto pistol in .40 SW caliber. With a misfire you can’t just pull the trigger again (like you can with a revolver that rotates the cylinder to a new round). A semi-auto pistol has to be cleared manually which is a two-handed operation to rack the slide to the rear and chamber another round. He couldn’t have done that once or even twice if he were grappling with Brown for the gun, as he claims.

While it is clear by later photos of Wilson’s face that he had been attacked by Brown, I don’t believe Wilson was justified in killing the guy after he had driven him off with gunfire that probably hit Brown’s hand. First, Wilson pursued Brown with his weapon instead of call for backup. Either Wilson was a very bad shot or Brown was a fair distance away when Wilson opened fire on him with five additional shots, which were all near misses except one. All the bullets are wide afield of the torso except the final head shot which killed Brown. Some witnesses said Brown had raised his hands to surrender when Wilson began firing again. Another, which the prosecutor relied on and emphasized, said Brown charged Wilson.

It is possible that both types of witnesses were correct. Brown may have initially surrendered but if Wilson started to shoot at him anyway, Brown may have decided his only chance of survival was to charge. Wilson should have called for backup and had the wounded Brown arrested.

Importantly, the jury did not address the issue of Wilson provoking a violent response by cursing at Brown while ordering him off the street. Clearly, there was blame on both sides, but the greater blame has to lie with the officer for provoking an angry response to a non criminal activity (walking in the street) and then initiating deadly force on Brown with a volley of shots into an unarmed man who had retreated from the fight.

The Grand Jury Process: Grand Juries were designed by the judicial founders of our country to be a restraint on unwarranted prosecution, but the process has since been turned into a group of common citizens (often selected for their lack of experience) directed in their every move by a prosecutor who has total charge of the entire secret procedure. Grand Juries are often nothing more than rubber stamps for the prosecution.

It is noteworthy in the case of the Oklahoma City bombing case that the grand jury was not permitted to interview any witnesses that testified to a John Doe number II, who many suspect was the government agent involved in guiding McVeigh’s actions. Witnesses were frequently told by the prosecutors to shut up. Witnesses admitted they were pressured by the FBI to implicate McVeigh and change their stories before appearing to the grand jury. When a few members of the jury began to challenge the control of the prosecutor and demand more information, the prosecutors and supervising judge put extreme pressure them, particularly on one juror who sensed a cover-up was going on. The judge dismissed him without hearing his objections. How transparent and fair is that process? See the story of whistleblower grand juror Hoppy Heidelberg here.

Here are excerpts from a David Feige piece in Slate on “The Independent Grand Jury That Wasn’t.”

As we think about the subsequent outrage, feast on images of the looting and fires, and pore over the damage assessments and arrest counts, it is worth taking a moment to talk about the road to this ruinous place and the ways in which St. Louis County prosecutor Robert McCulloch’s decisions exacerbated the problem.

McCulloch did something sneaky. He decided to foist the responsibility for an inevitably unpopular decision onto the members of the grand jury. By letting them make the ultimate decision, McCulloch hoped that he would be absolved of the responsibility for either prosecuting a cop or freeing a man many saw as a murderer.

But in order to do this, McCullough first needed to sell the notion that the grand jury was an independent body. And while there is some historical basis for this claim, in modern America, the grand jury is by no means independent. Rather, it is completely controlled by and ultimately loyal to the prosecutors who submit cases to it.

It was, in a way, a brilliant move—McCulloch wrapped himself in a profound loyalty to one of the few unimpeachable virtues in politics: transparency… And he might have pulled it off, but for the bizarre self-justifying ramble that was his press conference… Rather than take the podium, announce the decision, and then go on to explain the process and answer questions, McCulloch launched into a lengthy disquisition on the evidence, detailing the physical evidence and the ways in which it both discredited many of the witnesses who claimed to have seen what happened… Over the course of almost 20 minutes, McCulloch didn’t merely fail to get to the question on everyone’s mind, he implicitly demonstrated the very thing he’d spent weeks denying—that he had everything to do with the decision.

What became clear in his rambling presentation was that, just like in every other case, McCulloch had used his role as “legal adviser” to the grand jury to structure evidence and frame the presentation in such a way as to yield the very conclusion suspicious residents of Ferguson always feared. Robert McCulloch hadn’t changed the nature of the grand jury process after all. He hadn’t ceded autonomy to an independent body, he’d done what prosecutors have always done: presented his case to the grand jury, and placed his thumb squarely on the scale.

Prosecutor presented a defense because he was “going to be fair” but that means any time he went before the grand jury before and presented on the prosecution case, he was being unfair. In fact, that [is] exclusively what prosecutors do.

He is right, prosecutors almost always only present the prosecutor’s case to grand jurors and that is why they almost always rubberstamp what the prosecution suggests. I much prefer the preliminary hearing procedure that many states use, where the proceedings are public and where defense attorneys and prosecutors present the evidence before a judge—who determines if there is probable cause to proceed.

The grand jury decision is not the only legal challenge Wilson will face, though the options from Obama’s justice department (civil rights charges) are highly unlikely. The next most likely step is a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Brown’s parents. What is certain is that Darren Wilson won’t be safe to drive the streets of Ferguson any longer. He’s been in hiding since the incident and may well have to move permanently to a non-black neighborhood to avoid revenge attacks. I doubt he’ll ever work in law enforcement again—he’s too tainted..
