WMD All Over Again. “It is possible to wake up in October 2009 and imagine that one is still in George W. Bush’s America”

From: AntiWar

It is possible to wake up in October 2009 and imagine that one is still in George W. Bush’s America.  President Barack Obama promised change but has yet to deliver unless one counts his ownership of a huge budget-busting stimulus package that would likely make even Alan Greenspan recoil in horror.  Overseas, the United States is still embroiled in Iraq in support of a government that is increasingly developing into one party rule while a new surge into Afghanistan is being considered that might add as many as 45,000 soldiers to a conflict that appears to have no realizable objective and surely cannot be won.

… And the US media smelled blood in the water.  The always-ready-to-bomb-first Washington Post featured an op-ed on September 21st by the so-called Bipartisan Policy Center called “Last Chance for Iran”

Canceled European Missile Defense
Signals New Disarmament Race To War

CANCELLED EUROPEAN MISSILE DEFENSE SIGNALS NEW DISARMAMENT RACE TO WAR

This week Obama scrapped the Bush era proposal to build an anti-ballistic-missile system in Poland along with its corresponding search and tracking radar in the Czech Republic, which was supposedly designed to protect against a rogue missile attack from Iran. Getting Obama to dump the ABM system was a top priority for Russia, which knew that the Iran threat was an excuse to justify placing a system close to Russia capable of intercepting Russian missiles in their upward boost phase. This is where US interceptors would be most effective, having no warhead–instead of trying to knock down incoming Russian warheads, traveling at hyper speeds, over the target area. That’s a recipe for failure, especially if Russian claims about maneuvering warheads are true. This sudden backing down from directly confronting Russia appears to be part of a new and massive disarmament campaign as heralded by Obama in his speech to the UN–something the West always reverts to prior to sinking into a new world war. This week I’ll analyze why all such disarmament measures, without actual and verifiable Russian and Chinese reductions, will make the US more susceptible to a nuclear first strike.

The UK Guardian reported that, “Barack Obama has demanded the Pentagon conduct a radical review of US nuclear weapons doctrine to prepare the way for deep cuts in the country’s arsenal, the Guardian can reveal.” This is exactly the same thing President Bill Clinton ordered in 1996 that led to the secret issuance of PDD-60 completely changing the Reagan era nuclear doctrine designed to win a nuclear war with Russia. PDD-60 is still secret, but a few public statements issued in late 1997 by Clinton disarmament advisor Robert Bell and Craig Cerniello of Arms Control Today (who was part of the drafting and review process) [<[http://www.armscontrol.org/act/1997_11-12/pdd> http://www.armscontrol.org/act/1997_11-12/pdd ] indicated that the Presidential Decision Directive instructed US missile commanders “not to depend on launch-on-warning” (a tactic of launching all fixed silo missiles at the enemy before opponents first strike missiles landed and destroyed ours), –in essence, this PDD directed our country to absorb a first strike and retaliate later.

A frustrated Marine General is said to have exclaimed, “Retaliate with WHAT?” He knew, as did other commanders of our Trident nuclear submarines that Clinton had unilaterally agreed to keep half of all our SLBM submarines in port at any one time “to assure our Russian friends that we are not a threat.” When you telegraph a subtle message to the Russians that we are going to absorb a first strike, you induce them to make sure they hit us with everything necessary to make sure we cannot respond after a first strike.

PDD-60 also removes all alternate submarine launch codes so that our subs cannot fire without direct communications with the President. Those vital communications links will assuredly not survive a massive first strike. Even if they did, it is probable given what we know that the President would simply not issue the orders to launch until a first strike had landed. This is not deterrence. This is suicide, or a very carefully planned agenda to make the US vulnerable. Why would US leaders do this? It is designed to drive Americans into a New World Order that has military power over member nations–something no amount of public manipulation in past decades has been able to do. When our leaders come out of their bunkers they will declare the “Russians and Chinese deceived us” and now (that our military forces are mostly destroyed) we have no choice but to enter into a military alliance with the UN to save us.

Assembly of God ‘Christian’ and President Bush’s Attorney General: John Ashcroft’s ‘Christian Mafia,’ power-OVER, cult membership. “By their fruits you will know them”

Many evangelical ‘Christians’ were excited when President Bush chose ‘born-again,’ Assembly-of-God-‘Christian’ John Ashcroft to be our Attorney General. But look at the power-over, reverse-Jesus’-Sermon-on-the-Mount, secret, cultish organization that Ashcroft belonged to and perhaps still does.

No wonder why Ashcroft helped drive many of President Bush’s anti-constitutional policies, like the so-called Patriot Act.

And remember that both President Bushes are secret society members too (Skull and Bones).

Journalist Jeff Sharlet said this about The Family:

“The Family is the organization that runs the C Street house. … They also call themselves the Christian Mafia.”

When you’re chosen, the normal rules don’t apply. Morality is for the little people.”

Jesus didn’t come to take sides. He came to take over.”

Transcribed by Jeff Fenske from: Real Time – Jeff Sharlet on his book “The Family.” Watch video here.

Anyone running for office can call themselves a ‘Christian,’ but Jesus warned us:

by their fruits you will know them. … Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” – Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Mt. 7)

The truth will set us free: Greg Boyd: In the kingdom of God, we are not allowed to have any enemies (Pastor Greg Boyd discusses power-over verses Jesus’ example of power-under)

Details of secret CIA torture prisons released

From: Telegraph

Kyle “Dusty” Foggo, a senior CIA officer who is currently in jail for corruption has told The New York Times how he oversaw the construction of three identical prisons from his base in Frankfurt where he ran the spy agency’s main European supply base. …

The prisons were designed to facilitate harsh interrogation and torture and sometimes held as few as four detainees. …

There were non slip floors and wooden walls which detainees were slammed against. They also used the waterboarding torture technique.

Dr. Stanley Monteith On President Trumans’ Globalist Agenda (Bombing Japan When They Were Trying To Surrender, Turning China Over to the Communists, etc.) & How Our Media Was Taken Over 100 Years Ago

stanmonteith

Real Historian, Dr. Stanley Monteith

One of the greatest patriots ever!!

From: Dr. Stanley Monteith’s Radio Liberty Newsletter – August 2001

[…]

What is the “painful truth” we face today? The fact that our government has two levels, an outer level everyone recognizes and an inner level that operates behind a cloak of secrecy. The outer level consists of our elected officials, our court system, and the vast bureaucracy they’ve spawned. The inner level is controlled by powerful men who control our intelligence agencies, our politicians, most media outlets, many of our major corporations, and our tax-exempt foundations. They operate outside the law and interlock with the “Brotherhood of Darkness.” Henceforth I will refer to the men and the groups that work in the inner level as “the dark side.” [14]

Where did the “dark side” come from? How does the “dark side” conceal its existence? How does the “dark side” control our legitimate government? I will answer each question in turn because you can’t grasp the significance of the Oklahoma City bombing without an understanding of the “dark side” of government.

Where did the “dark side” come from? Those who have heard my talk on Geopolitics or read my book, Brotherhood of Darkness, know that two different ideologies have been competing for supremacy in our country for the past 380 years. One ideology is based on Christianity, truth, and righteousness; the other on occultism, deception, and depravity. Occultists consider Manly P. Hall the leading esoteric philosopher of modern times. If you read his book, The Secret Destiny of America, you will learn that the Rosicrucians sent a group of men to North America shortly after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth. Their assignment was to prepare this country to lead the world into the Novo Ordo Seclorum, the coming Secular World Order. [15] One hundred and fifty years later, our Founding Fathers established the United States. They based our laws, our calendar, and the structure of our government on the Bible. The new nation prospered as no nation has ever prospered before, but that didn’t discourage those who were dedicated to “the dark side.” When Franklin Delano Roosevelt became President, they consolidated their power. President Roosevelt was a 32nd degree Mason; both he and Eleanor were involved in the occult. [16] FDR replaced every retiring Supreme Court judge with a Mason, or someone sympathetic with their goals, who was willing to undermine the Constitution, centralize power in Washington, D.C., and destroy our Christian heritage. Vice President Harry Truman was a 33rd degree Mason, and when President Roosevelt died, Truman continued to pack the Supreme Court with Masons. As a result, Freemasons controlled the United States Supreme Court from 1941 to 1971. During those years they removed God and prayer from public schools, increased the power of the Federal bureaucracy, and established the “dark side” of our government. [17]

Establishment historians praise President Truman and ignore the fact that he was personally responsible for the death of millions of human beings. We are told that he saved the lives of thousands of American soldiers because he forced the Japanese to surrender by dropping atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. That isn’t true. The Japanese government tried to surrender seven months before Harry Truman sanctioned the murder of 200,000 Japanese civilians. The war ended on August 14, 1945. Four days later (August 19, 1945) the Chicago Tribune reported:

[Editor’s Note] After first reading this very newsletter, years ago, upon my request, Dr. Stan sent me a photocopy of the Chicago Tribune article which I transcribed and sent out in full to my email list at the time. It is what it is.

Real History: Hiroshima Didn’t Have to Happen. Japan was Ready to Surrender. We Slaughtered Them and Should Repent!

From the August 18, 2001 issue of the Arizona Daily Star, here.

Fifty-six years ago this month, we became the first and only nation to use nuclear weapons in warfare. The world was told that the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were justified in order to bring a swift end to the war without a costly and bloody invasion of Japan’s home islands.

This, to put it charitably, was a lie. No less an authority than General Dwight Eisenhower has stated unequivocally: “It wasn’t necessary to hit them with that awful thing.”

President Truman’s top military advisors were virtually unanimous in their belief that the atomic bombs were not needed to end the war without an invasion: Generals MacArthur, Clarke, Bonesteel and Marshall of the Army; Admirals Leahy, Nimitz, Halsey, Wagner and Radford of the Navy; and Generals Arnold, Eaker, LeMay, Spaatz and Chennault of the Air Force. (Comments from each of these men can be found at www.doug-long.com, in an extended discussion of Gar Alperovitz’ book The Decision to Use the Atomic Bomb, the most extensive examination of the new evidence in this case.)

The military leaders knew, as most civilians and soldiers did not, that Japan’s military situation was completely hopeless. We controlled both her seas and her skies with impunity. The war would be over long before an invasion could be mounted. Eisenhower also knew what some of his fellow generals did not: that for over a year we had been intercepting Japanese diplomatic cables seeking surrender.

Dozens of such messages have now been declassified. This cable traffic became more frequent and more desperate in the final weeks of the war. By then it was clear that the Japanese Emperor and even elements of her military were committed to surrender. And there is now no doubt that President Truman knew this when he made the decision to use nuclear weapons. We have a diary entry in his own handwriting concerning the “cable from Jap Emperor asking for peace.”

There was only one condition. Japan was asking for the same terms on which the war was later settled: that she be allowed to retain her Emperor. Truman’s political advisors told him that even a hint that we would agree to this, even a private assurance, would be likely to bring the war to an end. But Truman not only refused to offer such assurances, he explicitly removed them from the statement issued at the Potsdam summit in July, knowing full well that this would prolong the war.

He waited long months until the atomic bomb was available, without pursuing other avenues to peace. Far from saving lives, the nuclear option caused more soldiers to die in a war that was essentially over.

Why did Harry Truman do this? The available evidence in the historical record indicates that Truman and his closest advisor, Secretary of State James Byrnes, felt that nuclear weapons would give America unchallenged military power. They were looking ahead to the Cold War; they believed that demonstrating our willingness to use such weapons would make the Russians “more manageable” ….

…rather than expressing a triumphalist joy for the lives saved in an invasion that never would have occurred; we should unflinchingly recall this anniversary with humility and sorrow.

Gerald Celente on “people ripping off people at every level”: “We cannot move forward as a nation and succeed unless we bring our morality to the level it should be at”

Transcribed by Jeff Fenske from Coast to Coast AM, 7/14/09

Gerald Celente (Trends Research Institute):

“The other issue that is overriding…: people ripping off people at every level.

The nation has lost its morality. And speaking for myself and my moral code, we are fighting a war in Iraq that has been proven to be fought over false—whether or not they knew it is another issue that should be found out, in my belief. But there were no weapons of mass destruction; there were no ties to Al-Qaeda.

And in my belief, in living in this type of morality at so many different levels, from Wall Street to Washington to main street to the people that are ripping off the system, we cannot move forward as a nation and succeed unless we bring our morality to the level it should be at.”

(video) ‘Presidential Secrets’: Former CIA Operative Chip Tatum Speaks About Drug Running, G.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Oliver North, Neutralizing Ross Perot, Task Force 160’s Darkest Green (‘Black’) Helicopters, Assassinations

Over a decade ago, this first video is one of many that helped open my eyes as to what is really going on. Chip Tatum is allowed to discuss these firsthand accounts because a Federal judge ruled this information isn’t classified. Though the third video below especially show how the Federal courts are manipulated to protect the numerous, immoral black ops programs.

The second video is also very eye opening. It covers more ground and moves faster.

The very men who pose as conservatives (even ‘Christians’*) have been right in the middle of the covert dirty business, including bringing in the drugs to America. It has been said that the war against drugs is the war against the CIA’s competition.

Look what happened to Noriega and many others — Saddam Hussein, for example. Our traitor-leaders use our own military to take out foreign leaders who won’t play ball — who won’t be manipulated.

Ever wonder what happened to Ross Perot? Why he stepped out of the race when he had tremendous support…?

* Oliver North is actually hailed as a hero by many evangelicals. He spoke in a very large evangelical church here in Anchorage, for example. He’s one of the commentators that Rupert Murdoch uses to deceive Americans on Fox News. They steer conservatives away from true patriots like Ron Paul and into the hands of the globalist neocons. There is no way they could pull all of this off without strong Satanic spiritual forces at work and the ‘church’ laying down, not doing careful research, and even falling into the trap of actively supporting Satan’s One-World-government agenda, even the reverse-freedom military engagements.

With solid information like this, we never have to be a part of the problem and can live the rest of our lives with clean hands and clear consciences!!

Do the research and be free!

Paul Craig Roberts: Fear Rules in America

It is all very simple if you are an American. America is pure, but other countries, except for our allies, are barbaric. …

Americans are the salt of the earth. They never do any wrong. Only those other people do. …

Fear has made every American a suspect, eroded our rights, and compromised our humanity.

From: Infowars

The power of irrational fear in the US is extraordinary. It ranks up there with the Israel Lobby, the military/security complex, and the financial gangsters. Indeed, fear might be the most powerful force in America.

Americans are at ease with their country’s aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan, which has resulted in a million dead Muslim civilians and several million refugees, because the US government has filled Americans with fear of terrorists. “We have to kill them over there before they come over here.”

Fearful of American citizens, the US government is building concentration camps apparently all over the country. According to news reports, a $385 million US government contract was given by the Bush/Cheney Regime to Cheney’s company, Halliburton, to build “detention centers” in the US. The corporate media never explained for whom the detention centers are intended.Most Americans dismiss such reports. “It can’t happen here.” However, In northeastern Florida not far from Tallahassee, I have seen what might be one of these camps. There is a building inside a huge open area fenced with razor wire. There is no one there and no signs. The facility appears new and unused and does not look like an abandoned prisoner work camp.

What is it for?

Who spent all that money for what?

There are Americans who are so terrified of their lives being taken by terrorists that they are hoping the US government will use nuclear weapons to destroy “the Muslim enemy.” The justifications concocted for the use of nuclear bombs against Japanese civilian populations have had their effect. There are millions of Americans who wish “their” government would kill everyone that “their” government has demonized.

When I tell these people that they will die of old age without ever seeing a terrorist, they think I am insane.

Gerald Celente: Timeline Update — Temporary Reprive; Global Depression Still Coming

Transcribed by Jeff Fenske from The Alex Jones Show, June 4th 2009

Fresh air!

Men and women of integrity admit when they’ve missed it. Gerald is indeed a truther!!!

He tells Alex:

We had predicted that the crash of ’09 would have taken place already. We believed it would have happened in March, and it was right on schedule to do so. The market hit a low on March 9th.

But they come up with schemes undreamed of. Who would have thought, for example…that now we own General Motors, we’re 60% owners of this company. Who would have dreamed that they would be pumping 12.8 trillion dollars into the system?

Gerald sees a war (or wars) likely—partly as a distraction “to cover up their failures.” Americans like these wars, he says.

He also spoke of the dollar already losing value. And he sees this, including rising crime (including corporate):

During the summer, things usually quiet down. Europe goes on vacation, and things start getting real again around September or October. Again, just look through history.”

“The other one is Christmas sales, 2009. Watch how those sales come in. You’re going to see them way, way worse than they were last year, and they were terrible last year.

Then you move into the new year, and that’s when things in 2010 really start to unravel.

That’s our timeline.”

We invaded Iraq, and then we torture people after we invade?”

Dr. Paul on North Korea

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDTu-JBDlzs]

Dr. Paul discusses the NPRK’s detonation of an atomic device and how they achieved that technology using subsidies from the Clinton Administration.

(video) Top architect explains why 9/11 buildings were brought down by controlled demolition and Al Qaeda didn’t have the technology or access to do it. Who did? Two months before the ELEVATOR MODERNIZATION PROJECT, Nick ROCKEFELLER predicted a 9/11-like event to trigger war!

Adapted from: Transcript of Richard Gage explaining controlled demolition on KMPH in Fresno

Richard Gage:

We’re told that…the buildings collapsed due to structural weakening, due to the fires.

The problem is that we don’t have large gradual deformations associated with collapses.  And fires in high rises have never brought down a steel frame high rise building at all, ever.

And what we have, unfortunately, is the evidence in the twin towers and the third skyscraper to collapse that day, which most people don’t know anything about it.  We have the evidence of the ten key features of controlled demolition.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oO2yT0uBQbM]

We have 700 architects and engineers demanding a new investigation as a result of this evidence and the evidence in the World Trade Center that is very explosive.

Almost every architect and engineer we show this information to agrees with us that these are controlled demolitions.  If we can get them to look at the information, because obviously the implications of a controlled demolition are dark for our country.  Because that means somebody besides Al Qaeda was involved.

What we find down there [at ground level] is pools of molten ironSeveral tons. …

Jet fuel and office fires don’t produce molten iron or molten steel.  It doesn’t begin to melt until three thousand degrees.  But what we have is the fires only produce maybe fourteen, sixteen hundred degrees.

So what produced all that molten iron?  Well, it has in it the chemical evidence of a special incendiary, which is thermite, a high tech incendiary used to cut through steel like a hot knife through butter. … This is very high-tech thermite, nano-thermite, it’s not found in a cave in Afghanistan, it’s produced in very sophisticated defense department contracting laboratories. …the particles are one thousand times smaller than a human hair. … We’re talking about several tons of nano-thermite and ordinary thermite.

One would have to have access through security.  So the security company involved for the World Trade Center should be thoroughly investigated.  And it turns out to be Securi-com, Stratesec, somebody should look to see who’s on the board of those companies. Some very interesting individuals turn out to be.

In addition, one would have to have the cover, of say, an elevator modernization, which was in fact going on nine months prior to 9/11 [Compare with the Rockefeller article, below. Nick Rockeller’s statement was eleven months prior to 9/11! – ed.], so that there were workers throughout the World Trade Center, that had access to the hoistway which is immediately adjacent to the core columns and beams in the building.”

(video) Norman Dodd: Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations INTENTIONALLY ALTERED AMERICAN HISTORY in Order to Merge America Into a Monopoly They Control

Norman Dodd tells how the Rockefeller, Carnegie, Guggenheim and Ford Foundations set out to control education and rewrite American history in order to merge America into the one-world government they could control.

Perhaps we are seeing an example of the fruits of their history rewrite now that our government and the mainstream media (also controlled) claim that President Herbert Hoover didn’t do enough to avert the Great Depression, while true history says the opposite: AMAZING!!! Historians Twist History of the Great Depression(s) to Make Gov’t Intervention Appear Desirable.

Here is the incredible testimony of this great man, interviewed by G. Edward Griffin in 1982:

Norman Dodd (June 29, 1899 – January 1987) was a chief investigator in 1953 for U.S. Congressman B. Carroll Reece Special Committee on Tax Exempt Foundations (commonly referred to as the Reece Committee). Wikipedia

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUYCBfmIcHM]

G. Edward Griffin begins (full transcript):

The story you are about to hear represents a missing piece in the puzzle of modern history. Without this knowledge, many contemporary events are simply beyond understanding.

You are about to hear a man tell you that the major tax exempt foundations of this land since at least 1945 have been operating to promote a hidden agenda. And that agenda has nothing to do with the surface appearance of charity, good works, or philanthropy.

This man will tell you that the real objectives include the creation of a world-wide collective estate including the Soviet Union which is to be ruled from the behind the scenes by those same interests which now control the tax exempt foundations.

Norman Dodd says this starting at 25:45:

We are now at the year 1908 which was the year that the Carnegie began operations. And in that year the trustees meeting for the first time raise a specific question which they discuss throughout the balance of the year in a very learned fashion, and the question is, is there any means known more effective than war assuming you wish to alter the life of an entire people? And they conclude that no more effective means than war to that end is known to humanity.

So then in 1909 they raise the second question and discuss it, namely, how do we involve the United States in a war? Well I doubt at that time if there was any subject more removed from the thinking of most of the people of this country that it’s involvement in a war. There were intermittent shows in the Balkans but I doubt very much if many people even knew where the Balkans were.

Then finally they answer that question as follows: We must control the State Department. And then that very naturally raises the question how do we do that? And they answer it by saying we must take over and control the diplomatic machinery of this country and finally resolve to aim at that as an objective.

Then time passes and we are eventually in a war which would have been World War I and at that time they record on their minutes a shocking report in which they dispatch to President Wilson a telegram cautioning him to see that the war does not end too quickly.

And finally, of course, we are, the war is over. At that time their interest shifts over to preventing what they call a reversion of life in the United States to what it was prior to 1914 when World War broke out. And they arrive at that point, they come to the conclusion that to prevent a reversion we must control education in the United States.

And they realize that that’s a pretty big task. So it’s, to them, it is too big for them alone so they approach the Rockefeller Foundation with the suggestion that that portion of education which could be considered domestic be handled by the Rockefeller Foundation and that portion which is international should be handled by the Endowment.

And they then decide that the key to the success of these two operations lay in [an] alteration of the teaching of American history.

Skousen: Backing Evil with Scripture

World Affairs Brief, May 22, 2009 Commentary and Insights on a Troubled World.

BACKING EVIL WITH SCRIPTURE

Many Christians think it is wonderful anytime government officials mention God or quote from the Bible. I take strong exception, and not because I believe it is improper for government officials to appeal to God. I simply object to dropping the name of God or quoting scripture to cover for evil, and otherwise convince naive troops and Christians in general that an evil cause is just. TPM.com correspondent Steven Waldman recites what we know now about the misuse of God to add a religious sense of righteousness to the Bush wars.

“Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld put Bible verses on the top of the ‘Worldwide Intelligence Update’ presented to President George W. Bush, Robert Draper reports in GQ. Flip through this gallery of these extraordinary memos. Each cover page features inspiring color photographs — soldiers praying, a young man preparing for battle, Saddam’s statue falling. With them are biblical quotes, some related to providing strength to the soldiers but some about the godliness of the cause. Next to a picture of an American tank is the quote: ‘Open the gates that the righteous nations may enter, The nation that keeps faith. Isaiah 26.2’ A photo of two soldiers in prayer is accompanied by the quote, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for us. Here I am Lord, send me! Isaiah 6:8’ A photo of an American tank at sunset has superimposed on it, ‘Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Ephesians 6:13’

Mr. Draper writes that these were the brainchild of Major General Glen Shaffer, a director for intelligence serving the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the secretary of defense.” In almost all the scriptures highlighted by Shaffer, the true context is a spiritual war for the soul, not a physical battle.

Ron Paul’s AMAZING Speech: Current Conditions or Just a Bad Dream – 5/19/09

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOK31D2xuOA]

“Could it all be a bad dream, or a nightmare? Is it my imagination, or have we lost our minds?

It’s surreal; it’s just not believable. A grand absurdity; a great deception, a delusion of momentous proportions; based on preposterous notions; and on ideas whose time should never have come; simplicity grossly distorted and complicated; insanity passed off as logic; grandiose schemes built on falsehoods with the morality of Ponzi and Madoff; evil described as virtue; ignorance pawned off as wisdom; destruction and impoverishment in the name of humanitarianism; violence, the tool of change; preventive wars used as the road to peace; tolerance delivered by government guns; reactionary views in the guise of progress; an empire replacing the Republic; slavery sold as liberty; excellence and virtue traded for mediocracy; socialism to save capitalism; a government out of control, unrestrained by the Constitution, the rule of law, or morality; bickering over petty politics as we collapse into chaos; the philosophy that destroys us is not even defined.

We have broken from reality–a psychotic Nation. Ignorance with a pretense of knowledge replacing wisdom. Money does not grow on trees, nor does prosperity come from a government printing press or escalating deficits.

We’re now in the midst of unlimited spending of the people’s money, exorbitant taxation, deficits of trillions of dollars–spent on a failed welfare/warfare state; an epidemic of cronyism; unlimited supplies of paper money equated with wealth.

A central bank that deliberately destroys the value of the currency in secrecy, without restraint, without nary a whimper. Yet, cheered on by the pseudo-capitalists of Wall Street, the military industrial complex, and Detroit.

We police our world empire with troops on 700 bases and in 130 countries around the world. A dangerous war now spreads throughout the Middle East and Central Asia. Thousands of innocent people being killed, as we become known as the torturers of the 21st century.

We assume that by keeping the already-known torture pictures from the public’s eye, we will be remembered only as a generous and good people. If our enemies want to attack us only because we are free and rich, proof of torture would be irrelevant.

The sad part of all this is that we have forgotten what made America great, good, and prosperous. We need to quickly refresh our memories and once again reinvigorate our love, understanding, and confidence in liberty. The status quo cannot be maintained, considering the current conditions. Violence and lost liberty will result without some revolutionary thinking.

We must escape from the madness of crowds now gathering. The good news is the reversal is achievable through peaceful and intellectual means and, fortunately, the number of those who care are growing exponentially.

Of course, it could all be a bad dream, a nightmare, and that I’m seriously mistaken, overreacting, and that my worries are unfounded. I hope so. But just in case, we ought to prepare ourselves for revolutionary changes in the not-too-distant future.”

If They Knew the Truth, They’d Hate Us Even More

They do not hate us because we are good.  They hate us because we are a selfish and evil people consumed with our own comfort and drowning in the fetid smell of our own decay.  We are a depraved, unproductive, and brutal empire on the brink of collapse.  …if they knew the whole truth, they would hate us even more.

From: Insolent Media Center

We Americans like to think of ourselves as civilized people.  Historically, we have supported our government in war under the belief that our government and our soldiers are honorable and that we do not engage in unjust wars.  Ugly things like genocide, torture, naked aggression, raping, pillaging, and scorched earth policies are things that others do, not us.  Since we are so good and virginal in every sense, we reason that others hate us only because of our goodness and purity.  If they knew the truth about us, we think, they would love us.

Yet, if this is so, why is it that we need to hide from the world the activities of our soldiers and intelligence agents over seas?  Why cannot we, the “liberators” of Iraq, show the world the lovely photos of our soldiers at work Abu Ghraib?  Why must the CIA consider destroying the records of American conduct in the prisons at Guantanamo?  We are so pure, clean, honorable, and all, aren’t we?  What have we got to worry about?

Could it be that those baby faced soldiers we praise and pay tribute to are not as honorable as we would like to believe?  According to the latest body keeping the Oval Office seat warm, release of photos showing the activities of our soldiers, activities ordered by George Bush and Dick Cheney, would make the world hate us more than they already do and would, as a consequence, endanger the lives of our soldiers. Just how horrible are these images?

Celente: The Bailout Bubble — The Bubble To End All Bubbles

From: Rense

The Bailout Bubble – The
Bubble To End All Bubbles
By Gerald Celente

5-14-9

KINGSTON, NY — The biggest financial bubble in history is being inflated in plain sight, said Gerald Celente, Director of The Trends Research Institute. “This is the Mother of All Bubbles, and when it explodes,” Celente warns, “it will signal the end to the boom/bust cycle that has characterized economic activity throughout the developed world.”

Either unwilling or unable to call the bubble by its proper name, the media, Washington and Wall Street describe the stupendous government expenditures on rescue packages, stimulus plans, buyouts and takeovers as emergency measures needed to salvage the severely damaged economy.

“All of this terminology is econo-jargon,” said Celente. “It’s like calling torture ‘enhanced interrogation techniques.’ Washington is inflating the biggest bubble ever: the ‘Bailout Bubble.’ “This is much bigger than the Dot-com and Real Estate bubbles which hit speculators, investors and financiers the hardest. However destructive the effects of these busts on employment, savings and productivity, the Free Market Capitalist framework was left intact. But when the ‘Bailout Bubble’ explodes, the system goes with it.”

The economic framework of the United States has been restructured. Federal interventionist policies have given the government equity stakes, executive powers and management control of what was once private enterprise. To finance these buyouts, rescue and stimulus packages — instead of letting failed businesses fail and bankrupt banks and bandit brokerages go bankrupt — trillions of dollars are being injected into the stricken economy.

Phantom dollars, printed out of thin air, backed by nothing … and producing next to nothing … defines the “Bailout Bubble.” Just as with the other bubbles, so too will this one burst. But unlike Dot-com and Real Estate, when the “Bailout Bubble” pops, neither the President nor the Federal Reserve will have the fiscal fixes or monetary policies available to inflate another.

With no more massive economic bubbles left to blow up, they’ll set their sights on bigger targets. “Given the pattern of governments to parlay egregious failures into mega-failures, the classic trend they follow, when all else fails, is to take their nation to war,” observed Celente.

Since the “Bailout Bubble” is neither called nor recognized as a bubble, its sudden and spectacular explosion will create chaos. A panicked public will readily accept any Washington/Wall Street/Main Stream Media alibi that shifts the blame for the catastrophe away from the policy makers and onto some scapegoat.

“At this time we are not forecasting a war. However, the trends in play are ominous,” Celente concluded. “While we cannot pinpoint precisely when the ‘Bailout Bubble’ will burst, we are certain it will. When it does, it should be understood that a major war could follow.”

Tonight on ‘Coast’: Joel Skousen

From: Coast to Coast AM

Tuesday May 12, 2009

Political scientist and expert in relocation for personal security, Joel Skousen will share his analysis of why the financial bailouts of the major banks are corrupt, and how the U.S. financial turmoil will be resolved by WWIII with China and Russia.

……………….

Recap

… Skousen said the collapse of the Soviet Union was a deception, and the heads of the Communist party went underground and became oligarchs. Russia plans a preemptive nuclear strike against America, he declared, by targeting such cities as Long Beach, San Diego, Seattle, Colorado Springs, Kansas City, Amarillo, Norfolk, Jacksonville, Kings Bay, GA, and Omaha, which all have military presences, as well as Washington D.C. …

A nuclear attack by North Korea, or uprising in former Soviet states could act as a trigger event, drawing the U.S. in, and setting the stage for the world war, Skousen noted.

Chuck Baldwin: Can Christians Serve In The New World Order Army?

From: News with Views

Many patriotic Americans, including many retired and former military personnel, are increasingly chagrined at the direction the U.S. armed forces are taking. For one thing, there were numerous instances in the Clinton and both Bush administrations when American GIs were required to serve under foreign or United Nations commanders. Does anyone remember the Michael New case? How can any American GI, who has taken an oath to the U.S. Constitution, willingly surrender himself to a foreign commander, flag, or uniform? That is a potential conflict that has caused many to question modern military service. …

Another disconcerting element of modern military service is the reality that today’s American military is more and more being used as the tool of globalists to forge an international New World Order.

Gingrich: One EMP (electromagnetic pulse) weapon could take out a third of the electric generating capacity of the United States

Transcript: Gingrich, Sanford on ‘FNS’

Monday , April 06, 2009

CHRIS WALLACE, HOST: … Mr. Gingrich, before today’s launch, you said the North Koreans should not be allowed to fire a missile and that the U.S., quote, “should take whatever preemptive actions are necessary.” Are you saying that “President Gingrich” would have taken out that missile on the launch pad?

NEWT GINGRICH, FORMER SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE: Yes, I’m saying if you look at the new book by my co- author Bill Fortune called “One Second After,” and you look at electromagnetic pulse capabilities, which can take out — one weapon could take out a third of the electric generating capacity of the United States.

Ron Paul: Imagine

From: Texas Straight Talk

Imagine

Imagine for a moment that somewhere in the middle of Texas there was a large foreign military base, say Chinese or Russian. Imagine that thousands of armed foreign troops were constantly patrolling American streets in military vehicles. Imagine they were here under the auspices of “keeping us safe” or “promoting democracy” or “protecting their strategic interests.”

Imagine that they operated outside of US law, and that the Constitution did not apply to them. Imagine that every now and then they made mistakes or acted on bad information and accidentally killed or terrorized innocent Americans, including women and children, most of the time with little to no repercussions or consequences. Imagine that they set up check points on our soil and routinely searched and ransacked entire neighborhoods of homes. Imagine if Americans were fearful of these foreign troops, and overwhelmingly thought America would be better off without their presence.

Imagine if some Americans were so angry about them being in Texas that they actually joined together to fight them off, in defense of our soil and sovereignty, because leadership in government refused or were unable to do so. Imagine that those Americans were labeled terrorists or insurgents for their defensive actions, and routinely killed, or captured and tortured by the foreign troops on our land. Imagine that the occupiers’ attitude was that if they just killed enough Americans, the resistance would stop, but instead, for every American killed, ten more would take up arms against them, resulting in perpetual bloodshed. Imagine if most of the citizens of the foreign land also wanted these troops to return home. Imagine if they elected a leader who promised to bring them home and put an end to this horror.

Imagine if that leader changed his mind once he took office.

The reality is that our military presence on foreign soil is as offensive to the people that live there as armed Chinese troops would be if they were stationed in Texas. We would not stand for it here, but we have had a globe straddling empire and a very intrusive foreign policy for decades that incites a lot of hatred and resentment towards us.

According to our own CIA, our meddling in the Middle East was the prime motivation for the horrific attacks on 9/11. But instead of re-evaluating our foreign policy, we have simply escalated it. We had a right to go after those responsible for 9/11, to be sure, but why do so many Americans feel as if we have a right to a military presence in some 160 countries when we wouldn’t stand for even one foreign base on our soil, for any reason? These are not embassies, mind you, these are military installations. The new administration is not materially changing anything about this. Shuffling troops around and playing with semantics does not accomplish the goals of the American people, who simply want our men and women to come home. 50,000 troops left behind in Iraq is not conducive to peace any more than 50,000 Russian soldiers would be in the United States.

Shutting down military bases and ceasing to deal with other nations with threats and violence is not isolationism. It is the opposite. Opening ourselves up to friendship, honest trade and diplomacy is the foreign policy of peace and prosperity. It is the only foreign policy that will not bankrupt us in short order, as our current actions most definitely will. I share the disappointment of the American people in the foreign policy rhetoric coming from the administration. The sad thing is, our foreign policy WILL change eventually, as Rome’s did, when all budgetary and monetary tricks to fund it are exhausted.

Ron Paul: Obama Foreign Policy Identical To Bush? Absence of “change” underlines fact that both parties follow same agenda on major issues

From: Prison Planet

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD5FcSuMO1U]

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4C33bcLFAw]

Congressman Ron Paul has slammed Barack Obama’s foreign policy, saying it is identical to that of his predecessor George W. Bush, proving once again that both parties follow the same agenda on major issues.

Paul compared Obama’s pre-election promises to those of his predecessor George W. Bush, who before his election in 2001 guaranteed that the U.S. would not be the policeman of the world or engage in nation building.

Since the inauguration, Obama has sent 30,000 more troops into Afghanistan and and rapidly expanded the Bush-era bombing raids on Pakistan.

“Even though Obama was the so-called peace candidate and was going to bring our troops home from that war in Iraq, I’m afraid there’s evidence now that shows he’s going to pursue the same foreign policy – which was my argument during the campaign, that no matter what happens, both major parties support the same foreign policy, the same monetary policy, the same welfare policy and there’s never really any change,” said the Congressman.

As we reported last month, Obama’s war chest for 2009 alone, when one includes the budget of the defense department, the vast majority of which is related to spending on new fighter jets and other weapons-related programs, is a whopping $805 billion dollars.

Every single component bar one of the DoD budget is up 5-10% compared to 2008, with the budget for “military construction” increasing by a mammoth 19.1%.

Meanwhile, despite public pronouncements by Obama that a plan to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq is in progress, the details of the agreement actually establish a permanent presence of a sizable occupying force in perpetuity.

Obama swept to power on the promise that he would “immediately” withdraw troops from Iraq.

In reality, after the “withdrawal” of U.S. troops in 19 months, “Mr. Obama plans to leave behind a “residual force” of tens of thousands of troops to continue training Iraqi security forces, hunt down foreign terrorist cells and guard American institutions,” reported the New York Times.

A senior military officer spelled it out more plainly to the Los Angeles TImes, “‘When President Obama said we were going to get out within 16 months, some people heard, ‘get out,’ and everyone’s gone. But that is not going to happen,’ the officer said.”

Ron Paul also discussed Obama’s monetary policy, noting that every time a new government initiative was announced to supposedly rescue the economy, the stock markets sink.

Paul said that he also did not hesitate to slam Obama’s policies on civil liberties, especially on liberal talk shows that were sympathetic with the new president.

“I don’t think there’s any reason for us to rejoice,” said the Congressman.

Ron Paul: We Killed a Million Iraqis and that Pleased Bin Laden, Who Will Eventually Bankrupt this County

From: Raw Story

Paul noted that George Bush ran in 2000 on a pledge to end Bill Clinton’s nation-building, but then he “joined the idea that the American taxpayers — you — have an obligation to take care of everybody and police the world.”

“This is literally what bankrupts the country,” Paul complained. “It costs us a trillion dollars a year to take care of our foreign policy, and that cannot last.”

“The person most pleased with our foreign policy is Osama bin Laden,” Paul went on. “He said, ‘I’m going to get you to come over here and we’ll fight you on our sand, and we will do what we did to the Soviets.’ … He said he will do the same thing, he will eventually bankrupt this country.”

“So yeah,” Paul acknowledged. “We want to get rid of a bad guy in Iraq — we did. But … another one million Iraqis got killed. Believe me, they weren’t all terrorists. … But nevertheless, it pleased Osama bin Laden.”
