Chomsky is DEAD wrong about 9/11

Here's a good essay on the "Dissident Voice" website dealing with the reluctance of academia to investigate what really happened on 9/11:

http://dissidentvoice.org/2013/11/911-and-academia/

And here is an excellent website which lays out the basic problem:

http://911inacademia.com/

Frankly, so-called academics are ALL beholden to government or institutional funding which would vanish if they seriously tackled the reality of 9/11.

This issue makes me question the relevance of Professor Chomsky. Does anything he does or says make a difference, or is he merely a kind of safety valve who keeps certain issues from boiling over into effective action?

The Money Changers Serenade

Bankgangsters rule the world:

When a person becomes a Treasury official it is made clear that the choice is between serving the banks and becoming rich or trying to serve the public and becoming poor. Few make the latter choice.

... the goal of the financial sector has always been to convert all income, from corporate profits to government tax revenues, to the service of debt.

http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2013/11/29/money-changers-serenade-new-plot-hatches-paul-craig-roberts/

"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered ... I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies ... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

Thomas Jefferson (attributed)

[Note: Although it has been demonstrated that Jefferson may never have said or written these words, they accurately describe what has happened to us.]

The Separation Wall

This is OUR legacy in Palestine - Apartheid, Not Peace:

But even more important than this physical wall is the wall we have built in our minds which separates us from the truth.

What? You don't know what I mean? That's exactly what I mean.

Israel's nukes

"The last place in the world you want nuclear weapons is the Mideast. Why? People over there are crazy."

Senator Lindsey Graham

Yes they are, Senator Graham. And that includes the Israelis and the Zionist Christians:

http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2013/11/25/the_real_nuclear_option_israel_iran

Should there be a nuclear war in the Middle East, it most likely will be started by Israel. They are the only nation in the region which is actually threatening the use of such weapons.

Seymour Hersh called Israeli nukes the "Samson Option". Although Samson destroyed his tormentors, in pulling down the building upon them he also killed himself.

Is that what G-d wants?

Here is an excellent background piece on Israel's nukes:

Interview with Dr. Andrew Wakefield

Is there a connection between vaccines and autism? Watch this video and decide for yourself:

http://youtu.be/4mmVzXnPrvc

And please take a look at some of the comments people made about the video: ignorant people tossing insults back and forth.

By the way, the charge that Wakefield wanted to profit from his research is laughable. ALL medical researchers and Big Pharma are affected one way or another by the profit motive. The number of them who profit from their research is LEGION. This is a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

A question about the alleged Unabomber

There is a new book about Ted Kaczynski - Harvard and the Unabomber:

http://dissidentvoice.org/2013/11/technocracy-vs-humanism-then-and-now/

My question is this: why is violence and disruption caused by the ruling class acceptable, while violence in response to the actions of the ruling class is not?

The violence and disruption caused by the ruling class, when it is portrayed at all, seems to affect an unnamed mass of humanity (about whom we don't give a shit), while the publicized acts of people like Ted Kaczynski are always associated publicly with a list of gifted individuals, some of whom will be said to be "the most brilliant and visionary ... scientists of our time".

Are the rich allowed to kill us because we are worthless, while they and their friends somehow have value? Is the pursuit of knowledge, especially scientific knowledge, more important than basic human kindness? That's the way it seems to me.

An outbreak of lawlessness

Good essay by Charles Krauthammer on the outbreak of lawlessness in the United States:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/charles-krauthammer-the-democrats-outbreak-of-lawlessness/2013/11/28/3184b6f2-579b-11e3-8304-caf30787c0a9_story.html

I find it difficult to believe that Obama ad-Dajjal EVER went to law school or was a professor of constitutional law. His fundamental ignorance of and disrespect for the constitution and the law in general are both breathtaking and disgusting.

But the behavior of Obama ad-Dajjal is merely symptomatic of the general breakdown of the US government. Frankly, this all represents a disgraceful betrayal of the people by their government.

There will be more lawlessness to come. And you can bet your bottom dollar (if it's still worth anything) that whatever replaces the US government will NOT be democratic or compassionate.

Israel is targeting children

As far as I am concerned, the Israelis are monsters. Why are we still supporting them?

http://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/israeli-forces-raid-home-arrest-4-year-old-dad-says

Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

Luke 17:1-2 KJV

Genocide in Syria

What is happening in Syria is reminiscent of what the US did to Iraq - starve them and destroy their country:

http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2013/11/29/un-urges-supportforrefugeechildren.html

Are not both an act of genocide? Or do you still buy that "regime change" bullshit?

One of the symbolic reasons for World War Two

Apollo brings light, Apollyon brings darkness.

Bringing the sun and the moon together produces a solar eclipse ... the darkness which Apollyon represents.

China is the land of the moon, while Japan is the land of the rising sun. Uniting the two, by war or by peaceful means, could result in the rise of Apollyon. The United States does not want this to happen, except under conditions favorable to us.

So, we prevented Japan from conquering China, and we brought them to their knees.

Then we dropped two atomic bombs (miniature versions of the sun) on Japan to show them (and the world) that WE control the sun ... not Japan. And ever since, we have kept the two apart and encouraged them to fight each other.

That's what this current "air defense zone" baloney is all about ... to keep the moon from uniting with the sun.

Solar Panels On The Moon ???

A Japanese company wants to build solar panels on the moon:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/japan/10480950/Japanese-firm-plans-250-mile-wide-solar-panel-belt-around-Moon.html

Since the ability to GET to the moon currently does not exist, I think they should focus on cleaning up their mess at Fukushima instead.

When the Chinese eventually do get to the moon, they will destroy any Jap installations they find there anyway.

Interview with Glenn Greenwald

I like Glenn Greenwald. I always have.

I also like Laura Poitras.

I believe that both of them are honest, well intended persons.

That is the subjective prism through which I view them.

Why do the MSM dislike him so much? Is it because they are sock puppets for their governments?

The people have a right to privacy; governments do not.

Freedom From Want

As we celebrate Thanksgiving today, let's not forget the millions of people who suffer from hunger all around the world:

We may be blessed, but the gifts we have received create an obligation that we must fulfill.

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Matthew 25:31-46 KJV

The US Army's New Culture

This list was provided by an active-duty captain in the US Army.

The Army's new culture consists of the following:
1. No profanity
2. No gender distinction
3. No touching
4. No yelling
5. No accountability
6. No sweating
7. No violence
8. No mean thoughts
9. No using rank
10. No command authority
11. No authorized use of command tone
12. No prowess 
13. No cunning 
14. No war-winning
15. Mandatory OER peer-ranking, so that all officers try to scuttle each other, instead of being a cohesive team.

It's a whole new Army, and that's why I'm getting out. When mediocre minds are allowed to execute grand vision, everyone suffers. Please quote me on that.

If we ever have to fight a real enemy, this new culture is a recipe for disaster. It's the kind of shit Bill Clinton imposed, and it's no surprise that Obama ad-Dajjal is now doing the same thing.

Monsanto vs. the world

“Control oil and you control nations,” said US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in the 1970s. “Control food and you control the people.”

Great essay by Ellen Brown about corporate efforts to control the world's food supply:

http://dandelionsalad.wordpress.com/2013/11/26/monsanto-the-tpp-and-global-food-dominance-by-ellen-brown/

Could Monsanto be the fourth horseman of the apocalypse?

Noam Chomsky is wrong about 9/11

Professor Noam Chomsky thinks the government's official conspiracy theory about 9/11 is correct:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/26/noam-chomsky-911-truther_n_4345829.html

Dr. Chomsky is a linguist, and not an architect, engineer, or materials scientist. He clearly does not understand Newton's laws of motion and how to apply them to the study of what happened on 9/11. There are at least 2,099 reputable architects and engineers who disagree with his assessment of 9/11, and the number is growing:

http://www.ae911truth.org/

His claim that engineers and scientists would have come forward by now is misleading. They have, and some of their findings have been published in peer-reviewed journals. More of them have not been published for at least two reasons:

• The US government destroyed almost all of the evidence from the building debris, preventing any independent investigation, and
• Anyone who goes against the scientific establishment gets slandered or ruined by it. Should you not believe this, look up what happened to Dr. Steven Jones and Dr. Andrew Wakefield (Jones in the case of 9/11, and Wakefield in the case of autism).

A scientist and engineer with whom I am familiar and who has had the courage to stand up for 9/11 Truth is Dr. Judy Wood, who has filed a formal lawsuit accusing the NIST of science fraud in the matter of its 9/11 mis-investigation. Her book Where Did The Towers Go is a true eye-opener. Some of her claims are rather far-fetched, but her basic thesis is sound: what happened to the WTC buildings on 9/11 was neither a structural collapse nor a conventional controlled demolition.

I'll have more to say about this in a day or two.

Polar bears on the wane

And speaking of change and genetic diversity, Canada's polar bear population is collapsing:

http://www.theguardian.com/environment/interactive/2013/nov/27/canada-dwindling-polar-bear-population-interactive

Everything we do in our attempts to maintain stasis on this planet may be doomed to failure. And why do our policy planners think stasis is a good idea anyway? Because rich people are worried they will lose their money. No other reason.

Life has existed on this planet for billions of years. It has its ups and downs, but life always finds a way to get around climate change and other so-called disasters. If you believe the theory of evolution, you also have to believe that change is good, for without change there can be no evolution ... at least not in the sense that process was understood by Darwin.

Humans may not want to die out, but for all we know that's what it will take for the rest of the lifeforms on the planet to survive. In trying to save ourselves, we may kill everything else ... which will lead to our extinction anyway.

Catch 22, or something like that.

Cancer in Israel

Have you seen this picture on the front page of The New York Times?

The accompanying story discusses cancer statistics in Israel:

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/27/health/in-israel-a-push-to-screen-for-cancer-gene-leaves-many-conflicted.html

A closed society with an isolated gene pool is doomed to suffer problems like this. They can TRY to solve them using gene therapy or other forms of medical treatment, or they could accept something that in the USA is a truism: organisms which enjoy genetic diversity thrive, while those who don't often wither.

As "Lupi" from North Haven, CT remarked:

In the whole article, not one mention of the costs of in-breeding? I remember the day an Ashkenazi friend, who had one of the genes and has since died of ovarian cancer, said to me, "Your husband and I made wise choices for our children: we each married gentiles."

G-d loves ALL his children. Stop pretending that you're so "special" and mingle with your neighbors. You'll be healthier, happier, and live longer.

And you'll also avoid the unnecessary war with Iran you currently seem hell bent to bring upon the world. The last time the Temple was rebuilt, it was with the help of Cyrus. Why do you now think that rebuilding it requires you to attack his descendants?

Perhaps Messiah will come NOT after you devise ways to destroy all your enemies, but when you start following the law, restart the practice of jubilee, and learn the meaning of the word "compassion".

Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Jeremiah 31:31-34 KJV

Be an inspiration to humanity, not a scourge.

Recalling the words of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Perhaps a more tragic recognition of reality took place when it became clear to me that the war was doing far more than devastating the hopes of the poor at home. It was sending their sons and their brothers and their husbands to fight and to die in extraordinarily high proportions relative to the rest of the population. We were taking the black young men who had been crippled by our society and sending them eight thousand miles away to guarantee liberties in Southeast Asia which they had not found in southwest Georgia and East Harlem. And so we have been repeatedly faced with the cruel irony of watching Negro and white boys on TV screens as they kill and die together for a nation that has been unable to seat them together in the same schools. And so we watch them in brutal solidarity burning the huts of a poor village, but we realize that they would hardly live on the same block in Chicago. I could not be silent in the face of such cruel manipulation of the poor.

My third reason moves to an even deeper level of awareness, for it grows out of my experience in the ghettos of the North over the last three years -- especially the last three summers. As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems. I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through nonviolent action. But they ask -- and rightly so -- what about Vietnam? They ask if our own nation wasn't using massive doses of violence to solve its problems, to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today -- my own government. For the sake of those boys, for the sake of this government, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence, I cannot be silent.

[Taken from "Beyond Vietnam - A Time to Break Silence" @ http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkatimetobreaksilence.htm]

Guess what? Surprise, surprise !!! The United States is STILL the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today:

http://www.mintpressnews.com/pentagon-approves-record-sale-of-advanced-arms-to-countries-at-war/173618/

Ironically, WE are the true "prisoners of war" of America's conflicts. In nearly every single instance of conflict since World War Two, we have rejected diplomatic means and sought to impose our will using military might. Having drunk the intoxicating liquor of our foe's unconditional surrender, we seemingly can find no other way to interact with the rest of the world.

This will cease when we are broke ... and the nations of the world will breath a HUGE sigh of relief when it happens.

Leaving the US

Here is a report about expats leaving the US to avoid a new tax law:

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/11/27/209810/new-tax-law-driving-expats-to.html

I do not sympathize with them. What this report seems to say is that they are cheating on their taxes and don't want the US government to find out. That's a piss poor excuse for leaving.

What I CAN sympathize with is someone leaving the US to seek justice, stability, and a better way of life.

Germans moving to campgrounds

Like many Americans, people in Germany are camping out these days because they cannot afford to live anywhere else:

http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/campgrounds-turn-residential-in-germany-a-935811.html

I'll admit, it's difficult to feel sorry for someone who owns a Mercedes, but I think there is a clear global trend. The middle class is dying out, and in their waning years they are finding novel ways to live well on a small pension. I may try this some day, but probably not in Germany.

Seeking better Indians at Gitmo

In a secret facility known as "Penny Lane", the CIA turned kidnapped terror suspects into double agents:

http://bigstory.ap.org/article/penny-lane-gitmos-other-secret-cia-facility

These were the "better Indians" of the Global War on Terror.

Upon meeting General Philip Sheridan in 1869, Comanche Chief Tosawi reputedly told him, “Me, Tosawi; me good Injun,” to which Sheridan supposedly replied, “The only good Indians I ever saw were dead”. History remembers this exchange with the infamous phrase “the only good Indian is a dead Indian”.

When something is “good”, it is often accompanied by other things that are “better” and “best”. To America the only good Indian may be a dead Indian, but a better Indian is one who helps America kill other Indians. And the best Indian of all is one who forgives America for killing his children, raping his wife, stealing his possessions, exterminating his people, and eradicating his way of life.

As it was then, so it is now. Everywhere the evil spirit of America travels, we seek better Indians to help us kill the other Indians. That was the strategy of our forefathers during the French and Indian Wars and subsequent westward expansion, when they would arm one Indian tribe and turn them loose to attack another. That was our strategy in Iraq, where General Petraeus armed the warring Sunni and Shia militias to help them kill each other. That’s our strategy in Afghanistan, where “better Indian” Hamid Karzai helps us murder his countrymen. That’s also our strategy in Syria, where we are arming so-called insurgents and encouraging them to attack the troops of a legitimate government. America loves this strategy because it always works. We usually can find pent-up hatreds to exploit, and when we cannot it’s quite easy to create them.

Where are OUR iconic photos ???

Remember this iconic photo from the Great Depression?

Have you seen anything like this from the current economic disaster? I haven't. Is it because the poor of our era have been disappeared?

By the way, the woman in the photo later said that the photographer (who garnered considerable fame from the photo) never contacted her later to see how she was doing or to help her. Why am I not surprised?

Another ObamaDon'tCare Dire Prediction

An estimated 80 million persons who currently have health insurance through their family's employers also will see their plans cancelled because of ObamaDon'tCare:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/11/26/evidence-shows-obama-administration-predicted-tens-millions-would-lose-plans/

Are we really THAT stupid that we could not see this coming? Relieving employers of the obligation to provide health care benefits and shifting the cost to their employees was the whole idea behind ObamaDon'tCare.

Obama ad-Dajjal knew this all along; why didn't we?

And you re-elected this liar?

Sheesh !!!

The problem is civil obedience

A worthwhile essay by the late Professor Howard Zinn and a related video with Matt Damon:

https://dandelionsalad.wordpress.com/2013/11/25/the-problem-is-civil-obedience-by-howard-zinn-video/

I start from the supposition that the world is topsy-turvy, that things are all wrong, that the wrong people are in jail and the wrong people are out of jail, that the wrong people are in power and the wrong people are out of power, that the wealth is distributed in this country and the world in such a way as not simply to require small reform but to require a drastic reallocation of wealth. I start from the supposition that we don’t have to say too much about this because all we have to do is think about the state of the world today and realize that things are all upside down.

Zinn said these words over 40 years ago, but they are as true today as they were then. About the only difference is that the rich are even richer and the poor are even poorer.

For what it's worth, I think Matt Damon is pretty creepy. I can't put my finger on it, but he just does not come across to me as being honest. Is he a "philanthropist" like Hillary Rodham? The only reallocation of wealth involving him of which I am aware has been from all of us to Matt. Am I missing something? Did he ever bite the Hollywood hands that feed him?

The red list of endangered species

Cool photo essay from The Guardian website:

http://www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2013/nov/26/red-list-endangered-species-in-pictures

Q: If, as we are constantly told, "change is good", then why is conservation of species (i.e., maintaining the status quo) also good?

A: They really don't give a damn. Both ends of this spectrum (and everything in between) is all about making money.

Period.

I do, however, sympathize with all the life on Earth. We all are competing for the same space and the same resources and unfortunately for them we think most of it belongs to us.

Of course it actually belongs to the bankgangsters, the corporations, and their accomplices in the one percent, but you know what I mean.

The dangers of cyborgs

The world is rushing headlong toward the day when humans and machines will combine into a new organism. There's even a name for the blessed event ... "The Singularity". We've all seen movies about cyborgs (e.g., The Terminator) and robots (e.g., I, Robot), and now we're being treated to TV shows along a similar vein (e.g., Almost Human).

Although Ray Kurzweil, Sergey Brin, and others think this is a great idea, I have my doubts.

Realistically, the new organism will be infinitely more intelligent and powerful than a standard human being. If you don't think we're "useless eaters" yet, just wait until after The Singularity occurs.

And in a prophetic vein, I'm worried even more that The Singularity will lead to the rise of the Antichrist and the False Prophet. Cyborgs will be to us like demigods were to the Greeks and Romans. It is likely that they will want to be worshiped and that they will extinguish anyone who refuses to worship them.

Does that sound familiar?

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

Revelation 13:14-15 KJV

Some complaints are more important than others

Because "someone complained", a sign thanking veterans for their service must be taken down:

http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2013/11/26/huntington-beach-bar-fights-to-save-sign-that-salutes-veterans/

Well ... millions of people are complaining about the disaster known as the Patient Protection (sic) and Affordable (sic) Care Act, but is it going to be taken down?

You see the trend. Everyone, including those who think they were fighting for our freedoms, will be taken down.

Don't worry ... humility is good for the soul.

More about Comet ISON and the star called Wormwood

The Greek goddess Artemis (Diana to the Romans) was the sister of the god Apollo. As I have previously written, both Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana had public personae which were based upon the personality of Artemis.

The plant known as common ragweed has the scientific name "Ambrosia artemisiifolia" or "the ambrosia of Artemis". It also is known as "Roman Wormwood" and "American Wormwood". Every fall when I inhale the ambrosia of Artemis / American Wormwood, I get very wheezy, sneezy, and ill.

Perhaps the star called Wormwood will be associated with another Artemis/Diana-like figure ... such as Hillary Diane Rodham. She and her alleged "husband" also have been portraying themselves as Apollo/Artemis-like figures.

Look for Comet ISON to be a harbinger of her next assault on the people of the US.

By the way, her Forbes website profile claims she is a "philanthropist". The usual definition of that term is "a person who seeks to promote the welfare of others, esp. by the generous donation of money to good causes". Although she is making millions of dollars, can you name a single good cause to which she has applied it ... other than her campaign fund, which arguably will NEVER promote the welfare of anyone other than herself?

23andMe

When I first read about 23andMe in "Fast Company", I thought they had a cool idea and considered buying their DNA testing service.

However, then I read about the FDA complaint:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2013/11/25/fda-this-dna-testing-company-could-kill-you/

And THEN I realized that 23andMe is run by the wife of Sergey Brin of Google.

I have read too many stories about Google's data mining of everything on the planet to EVER trust them with my DNA. My opinion, and I'm entitled to my opinion, is that turning one's DNA over to anyone in return for an FDA-questionable analysis is NOT a good deal ... regardless of the price.

The indigenous peoples of the world were decimated by European "explorers" who stole their wealth under the Doctrine of Discovery. Something similar is being done by today's data miners. They are mining the planet (including places they do not own) and extracting data which then becomes their wealth. True, it's all legal, but does anyone still want to play "cowboys and Indians" when this time you have to be one of the Indians? Not me.

Forewarned is forearmed.

Quote for the day

There are poisons that blind you, and poisons that open your eyes.

Playwright August Strindberg

Is Comet ISON the star called Wormwood ???

People are saying that Comet ISON may be the "comet of the century":

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/comet-ison-if-it-survives-trip-around-the-sun-could-bring-spectacular-sky-show/2013/11/24/f544103a-53b6-11e3-a7f0-b790929232e1_story.html

Until the sixteenth century, comets were usually considered bad omens of deaths of kings or noble men, or coming catastrophes, or even interpreted as attacks by heavenly beings against terrestrial inhabitants.

The Book of Revelation seems filled with prophecies which may be related to comets. This particular comet is thought to be composed of the original material from which the solar system was made:

http://www.nasa.gov/content/goddard/timeline-of-comet-ison-s-dangerous-journey/#.UpODTMSTh1Y

As it cooks off in our region of the solar system, let's pray this comet is not carrying anything which is poisonous to life on Earth. If it is, we may be due for the fulfillment of one or more Biblical prophecies:

And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

Revelation 8:10-11 KJV

Is Comet ISON the star called Wormwood? Some think it is:

I hope you have enjoyed reading my blog and that what I have written has been of some value to you.

In the future I will focus more on prophetic events and less on the day-to-day stupidity of the US government.

As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

Luke 3:4 KJV

Saudis appear to be ungracious hosts

Here is a revealing article about what Saudi Arabia is doing to its migrant workers:

http://dandelionsalad.wordpress.com/2013/11/24/we-are-kept-in-a-concentration-camp-by-graham-peebles/

Why are (were?) the Saudis our friends? Is money really more important than the fate of millions if not billions of people? For America, the answer apparently is "yes".

Afghanistan may bring back stoning

We have squandered trillions of dollars and ended or shattered the lives of thousands if not millions of people, and this is the result: the people of Afghanistan want to bring back stoning as the punishment for adultery:

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/nov/25/afghanistan-reintroduction-public-stoning-adulterers

Amazing, but quite easy to believe. Neither Islam nor traditional cultural beliefs will ever be eradicated with bombs and bullets. Rome could not defeat Christianity. Why have we learned nothing from that fact?

Love Canal - An Example For The Rest of Us

Love Canal is back in the news:

Wouldn't it be nice if we all could be as motivated as Lois Gibbs? If we were, maybe the bankgangsters and corporations could finally be held responsible for their crimes.

Illinois is going bankrupt, too

This essay paints a bleak picture of the Land of Lincoln:

State, local, and federal budgets all are under fire. This should have been anticipated by the morons who offshored our tax base. I believe that they knew what would happen, and that they should be outed for the traitors they are.

Why remain loyal to a government that continually betrays us? That's a tough question, wouldn't you say?

India is the most attractive investment destination

The United States has dropped to # 5:

Do you get the feeling that "our" government is focused on the wrong priorities?

The final pillars of the dollar are crumbling

Here is the latest analysis from the the GlobalEurope Anticipation Bulletin. I strongly suggest that you read the whole thing:

http://www.leap2020.eu/GEAB-N-79-is-available-2014-Internationalization-of-the-Yuan-the-opening-of-Saudi-Arabia-the-implosion-of-the-EU-and_a15012.html

The rapid internationalization of the Yuan, causing a decline in the central role of the dollar; the loss of Saudi support, a key part of the petrodollar edifice; and the loss of the Americanist bastion of the EU, replaced by a Euroland relying on the Euro, are all threats to the three remaining essential pillars of American power, which will disappear in 2014, precipitating considerable global upheaval.

It's starting to look like 2014 will be a very bad year for Uncle Sam. Hopefully those of us in the rank and file will fare better than this analysis seems to predict.

Thought for the day

"Today the world became a much more dangerous place because the most dangerous regime in the world made a significant step in obtaining the most dangerous weapons in the world," PM Netanyahu told his Cabinet on Sunday, calling the deal a "historic mistake."

[borrowed from http://apnews.myway.com/article/20131124/DAA8VNQO2.html]

Frankly, this same statement would have been MORE accurate and appropriate if it had been voiced on the day that ISRAEL took steps to obtain nuclear weapons and the US decided to do nothing to stop them. Whatever deal was made between the US and Israel to allow THAT to happen was indeed an historic mistake.

A few people claim that this is why JFK was murdered: because he was going to prevent Israel from going nuclear. Once JFK was dead, LBJ gave them the green light. [For more on this theory, see the book Final Judgment by Michael Collins Piper.]

Israel clearly is the most dangerous regime in the world because they refuse to work with the international community and have stated openly that they would use nuclear weapons against their "enemies". And Robert Fisk agrees with me on this:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/robert-fisk-he-may-huff-and-puff-but-benjamin-netanyahu-is-on-his-own-now-as-nuclear-agreement-isolates-israel-8960766.html

In addition, they actually believe that G-d wants them to kill people. Often, people who claim to hear the voice of G-d are insane. Do you believe that G-d speaks to the Israelis of today? I have my doubts. Hopefully whatever voice they hear really is G-d, or we're all in a lot of trouble.

A ray of sunshine

Things aren't as bad as once thought:

http://dissidentvoice.org/2013/11/the-decline-of-the-us-and-everyone-else/

In sum, the structures of the US empire, corporate, financial, military and political-cultural, all remain in place and ready to regain dominance if and when political opportunities arise.

The point is that the thesis of the ‘decline of the US empire’ and its corollary, the ‘crises of the US’ are overstated, time bound and lack specificity. In reality, there is no alternative imperial or modern anti-imperial tendency on the immediate horizon.

If imperialism is declining, so is anti-imperialism. If capitalism is in crisis, the existing anti-capitalists are in retreat.

The whole world is on a downhill slide, and we look pretty good in comparison. Woo-Hoo !!!

More symbolism in the murder of JFK

I have previously written about some of the symbolism in the murder of JFK. Here is a bit more:

(1) The Greeks and Romans, who worshipped the god Apollo, had many beliefs about the afterlife and the underworld. This map expresses some of them:

As you can see, they believed that the dead passed an elm tree on their way to the ferry which would take them across the river Styx. JFK's fatal head wound was inflicted on Elm Street in Dallas.

(2) The Roman god Mercury (Hermes to the Greeks) was believed to be the god who brought the dead to the ferry. If you will recall Dr. David Mantik's paper, he saw what he thought was mercury residue in the X-rays of JFK's skull:

http://assassinationresearch.com/v2n2/pittsburgh.pdf (see pages 16-18)

(3) As JFK's limo sped toward the triple underpass railroad bridge, it was entering the flood plain of the Trinity River. There is a sign in Dealey Plaza which states that it is the site of an early ferry crossing.

(4) Mercury (Hermes) was also the god of commerce. One of the other two roads running through Dealey Plaza was Commerce Street, and as he was murdered JFK was on this way to the Trade Mart. Curiously, Clay Shaw (the man tried by Jim Garrison for the plot to kill JFK) operated a "trade mart" in New Orleans.

(5) Hermes and Apollo were thought to be bisexual or gay. J. Edgar Hoover, who is known to have been gay, is widely believed to have assisted in the orchestration of JFK's murder and its cover up. I say this not to criticize his sexual preference but to point to the similarity between Hermes and Hoover. And for some reason, many of the people in Oliver Stone's movie JFK are portrayed to be gay men.

(6) Shortly after the murder of JFK, the United States was introduced to Beatlemania. As I wrote in a previous post, Beatlemania (worship of baetyls) is a form of Cybele worship:

http://sainthoward.blogspot.com/2012/10/how-does-baetyl-live-on-december-8-1980.html

(7) And last, but not least, November 22 is the Greco-Roman festival of the goddess Artemis (Diana). As I wrote previously, Jackie Kennedy's public persona was based upon the goddess Diana. Curiously, so was the public persona of Princess Diana of England.

The Book of Revelation in the Bible represents the intersection of Greco-Roman religious beliefs and early Christianity. The latter cannot be fully understood without reference to the former. Clearly, Greco-Roman beliefs are still powerful forces in our world (e.g., fraternities, sororities, Mardi Gras, etc.). Perhaps the gods and spirits behind these beliefs are still with us too and are conjured up by the non-Christian rulers of this world when they see fit.

And maybe that's part of what happened in Dallas on November 22, 1963.

A Living Death: Life without Parole for Nonviolent Offenses

Please spend some time reviewing this ACLU report. It says a lot about the kind of people we are.

Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Genesis 3:1-5 KJV

We sure screwed up that one.

Is Christianity Communism ???

This essay argues that Christianity is communism:

http://koinoniarevolution.com/2013/11/17/christianity-is-communism/

Many people believe that communism is "godless" and has nothing in common with Christianity. They are wrong.

Perhaps what we should ask ourselves is whether capitalism is Christianity ... or whether the United States operates on Christian principles. I believe the answer to both of those questions is "no".

And they will deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity.

Jeremiah 9:5 KJV

Three in Dealey Plaza and the WTC

Here's a comparison I had not thought of which is intriguing:

Three is symbolic of Apollo's tripod and Poseidon's trident (a.k.a. the devil's pitchfork).

Did O and Miriam Carey have a love child ???

Remember Miriam Carey, the Connecticut woman who recently was murdered by the police in DC?

Her sister, who is a retired NYC police sergeant, is claiming that Miriam may have been killed because of a love child Miriam had with Obama ad-Dajjal:

http://atlah.org/2013/11/22/family-of-slain-miriam-carey-calls-for-paternity-test-of-possible-obama-love-child/

For two related stories, see http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1712.htm and http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1716.htm

If this sounds bizarre, please recall the controversies over what happened to Vince Foster and Ron Brown during the Clinton administration. Where they also murdered, or do you believe what the government says about their deaths?

By the way, I am not a follower of Sorcha Faal. She does, however, often write about some interesting stuff.

Not a single penny from the US

Remember those workers in Bangladesh who died in a factory fire? European companies are donating money to help them, but US firms are not:

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/11/23/business/international/us-retailers-decline-to-aid-factory-victims-in-bangladesh.html

Yep ... we are the most compassionate and generous people in the world. Only problem is that our corporations now have all the money. Like zombies they have a body and a mind, but no heart and no soul.

One more reason why the Israelis will NEVER accept Jesus

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Matthew 9:13 KJV

The Israelis want to rebuild the Temple and restart the daily sacrifices. They do NOT want to show mercy to the Palestinians, and they do NOT want to practice jubilee.

They believe that sacrifice is more important than mercy.

They rejected Jesus then, and they reject Him now.

The real reason Iran cannot have nukes

And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

Revelation 17:12 KJV

There are currently nine nations that are known to have nuclear weapons:

• United States
• United Kingdom
• France
• Russia
• China
• India
• Pakistan
• North Korea
• Israel

If Iran were to get nukes, they would be the tenth nation (or kingdom) to do so.

Perhaps the powers that be are not ready to start the End Time clock and think they can delay it by preventing a tenth king from getting nuclear weapons.

Hey ... this makes as much sense as anything you will hear from John Kerry.
