<p>COUNT ONE  (Conspiracy to use incendiary devices to create controlled-diameter holes in metallic targets)</p>
<p>The Grand Jury charges:</p>
<ol>
<li>On 9/6/2001 The Powers That Be (TPTB), the defendants herein, did knowingly, intentionally, willfully and maliciously conspire, combine and agree together and with others unknown to the Grand Jury to remove bomb-sniffing dogs from the World Trade Center I and II, while the defendants and their unknown agents placed AN-M14 thermite charged incendiary devices between the 92nd to 98th floors of the North Tower and between the 78th to 84th floors in the South Tower.  The object of the conspiracy were as follows:<br />
-  Kill and injure innocent people (1,434 in the North Tower, 589 in the South Tower).<br />
-  Damage the property of Silverstein Properties, Inc. (Larry Silverstein suffered a net loss of 4 billion dollars). <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[3]</a><br />
-  Generate confusion surrounding the impact holes in the towers to prevent the discovery of the test of the Earth (Count 2).The object of the conspiracy were as follows:<br />
At 8:46 AM on September 11, 2001, TPTB caused the thermite-charged incendiary device to explode creating an impact hole that extended from the 92nd to 98th floors of the North Tower.<br />
At 9:03 AM on September 11, 2001, TPTB caused the thermite-charged incendiary device to explode creating an impact hole that extended from the 78th to 84th floors at South Tower.</li>
<li>COUNT TWO (Conspiracy to conduct a Metaphysical Catechism (Test) of the Earth)</li>
<li>On 9/11/2001 TPTB, the defendants herein, did knowingly, intentionally, willfully and maliciously conspire, combine and agree together and with others unknown to the Grand Jury to conduct a Metaphysical Catechism (Test) of the Earth that resulting in the deaths of 2,023 persons.</li>
<p>The Powers That Be (TPTB), armed with the lost knowledge from the ancient world Atlantis, in a metaphysical struggle with the Earth are using humans to weaken the earth with environmental damage and pollution. <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a></p>

<p>It was the object of the conspiracy to determine if the earth was sufficiently weakened, so TPTB could take over and begin the transition to a One World Government and New World Order on 9/12.

<p><strong>The Manner and Means Used By the Conspirators to Further the Objects of the Conspiracy </strong></p>
<p>Among the manner and means used by the defendants to further the objects of the conspiracy were the following:</p>
<p>COUNT THREE (The Conspiracy to use Computer-Generated Video Graphics (CGI fakery) to add an impediment to the discovery of the Metaphysical Test of the Earth).</p>
<li>On 9/11/2001 TPTB, the defendants herein, did knowingly, intentionally, willfully and maliciously conspire, combine and agree together and with Mike Rivero, a.k.a. John Wenckus, and others unknown to the Grand Jury, to use fake and/or doctored TV images to create the illusion of real plane crashes at the WTC.</li>
</ol>
<p>It was the objective of the conspiracy to create an almost impenetrable barrier to the discovery of the Metaphysical Catechism (Test).</p>
<p>All in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1114, 1111 and 2(a)&amp;(b); and Title 28, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 64.2(h). Vincent Bugliosi, United States Attorney</p>
<p>[Prosecutor Note: Normally I (Vincent Bugliosi) won’t take a conspiracy theory case especially one that is Metaphysical (Sartre didn't understand the word metaphysical).  I spent the last eight years writing "Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy" where I poked fun of the JFK conspiracy theories. I agreed to prosecute this case because I read <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/04/30/the-key-to-the-secret-of-the-universe-pa-2">The Key to the Secret of the Universe, Part 2</a> by Robert Singer.</p>
<p>{The following transcript is truth disguised as fiction, because truth is stranger than fiction.}</p>
<p>All the information herein, is taken from real events that can be verified by the numerous exhibits and hyperlinks.</p>
<p>"Any resemblance to real people is purely intentional."</p>
<p>CIA agent Mike Rivero, did not agree to cooperate with the grand jury and therefore we were required to invent his testimony based on the facts and the evidence that can be verified by the exhibits and hyperlinks.</p>
<p>All other witnesses that appeared before the grand jury did so by their own volition.</p>
<p><strong>Opening statement (by Vincent Bugliosi)</strong></p>
<p>Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for agreeing to be on this panel.</p>
<p>Before we begin, let me say this: our staff spent the last nine years researching and investigating the official story of September 11 and have come to the conclusion that</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Nineteen fanatical Arab hijackers, masterminded by an evil genius named Osama bin Laden, crashed airplanes into steel skyscrapers because they “hate our freedom to go shopping.” Inexplicably, the jet fuel, which is basically kerosene that burns at about 400c, took on the qualities of an explosive demolition agent, vaporizing 70 tons of aircraft into a puff of smoke and causing 110-story buildings to collapse into a pile of rubble.</p>
<p>That story is so preposterous that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the Neocons <em>didn’t </em>expect you to believe it.</p>
<p>Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the Neocons <em>expected y</em>ou to believe <em>9/11 Truth</em>: A rogue element of the US government that needed a New Pearl Harbor, used controlled demolition to destroy the Twin Towers.</p>
<p>Without getting into the details I agree that Bush played the part of being stupid really well, but do you actually think he would put his plans on the Project for A New America website? <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[5]</a></p>
<p>If you are not already aware, <strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/is-all-of-the-media-is-controlled/">ALL of the media</a></span></em></strong> is controlled</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><a href="http://skepticwiki.org/index.php/Disinfo">9/11 Truth is a cesspit</a>. There is not a shadow of a doubt that the 9/11 “Truth” was planned simultaneously with 9/11 itself. That is why you have so many conflicting stories, points of view, arguments and discussions, etc. The Trolls were pre-ordained and planned. So were the major websites (e.g., 911Truth.org, Infowars and <a href="http://algoxy.com/psych/whatis9-11disinfo-rense.html">Rense.com (Participation in Overinformation, Misinformation as Disinformation</a>, or <a href="http://www.wingtv.net/thorn2006/rense1.html">Who is Jeff Rense?</a>). “It is a known fact that any grouping of five or more will be infiltrated.” &#8211; Veronica Chapman, Truther</p>
<p>Alex Jones is the &#8220;Minister of Truth&#8221; over a flock of &#8220;Truthers&#8221;, whose church is the &#8220;9/11 Truth Movement.&#8221; Pastor Jones is none other than a member of Project Mockingbird, Jesuit Temporal Coadjutor and alternative Media Gatekeeper for the Vatican: <a href="http://spirituallysmart.com/Jones-CIA.htm">Alex Jones Jesuit Temporal Coadjutor CIA Disinformation Agent</a>. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[6]</a><br />
Then, I suggest you request time to re-read the materials in the Exhibit 7. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[7]</a></p>
<p>That being said, the story behind “the story behind the story” of how the World Trade Center I and II collapsed on September 11, 2001 is <em>The Most Important issue in the History of the Universe</em>.</p>
<p><strong>Count 2:</strong> Conspiracy to use incendiary devices to create controlled-diameter holes in metallic targets</p>
<p>Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, thermite <em>was</em> used on 9/11, but only to create the impact holes in the Twin Towers where the alleged planes flew into the North and South Towers.</p>
<p>There is absolutely no evidence, hypothesis or theory that can prove that a controlled demolition using thermite, “Israel’s Super-Thermite” or nano-thermite, is responsible for the collapse of the Twin Towers on 9/11. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[8]</a></p>

<p>TPTB and Vladimir Ilyich Lenin knew that “The Best Way To Control The Opposition Is To Lead It Ourselves.&#8221;</p>
<p>Steven Jones, the “expert” for the 9/11 Truth movement, is a professor of physics with no expertise whatsoever in material science. Dr. Jones was asked to leave the university when he embarrassed the physics department at Brigham Young by <a href="http://911research.wtc7.net/essays/jones/StevenJones.html#carlson">going public</a> with his “best hypothesis” about the collapse of the Twin Towers.</p>
<p>Jones writes that demolitions of WTC 1, 2 and 7 are the same, however:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">WTC 7 was a bottom-up a gravity-assisted collapse with a small debris field, while WTC 1 and 2 were primarily top-down, virtually unassisted by gravity and showered debris in a wide radius as their frames essentially &#8220;peeled&#8221; outward. <em>FEMA: WTC Study, Ch. 5 (05/02)</em></p>
<p>Jones’ research, never peer reviewed, does not prove the building collapsed from controlled demolition. <a href="http://nomoregames.net/index.php?page=911&amp;subpage1=trouble_with_jones">A peer review of Steven E. Jones&#8217;  9/11 Research (The Trouble with Jones)</a></p>
<p>Inexplicably, Steven Jones was allowed to advance his <em>hypothesis </em>in front of millions on MSNBC.<br />
“What I&#8217;m doing, Tucker (Carlson), is presenting evidence, <em>but it&#8217;s a hypothesis to be tested. That&#8217;s a big difference from a conclusion, and so I just wanted to clarify that.”</em><br />
Exhibit 9 has all of the information required to thoroughly discredit any theory of controlled demolition from Dr. Steven “Cold Fusion” Jones. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[9]</a></p>
<p>To repeat COUNT 2<br />
September 11 was a Metaphysical Catechism to determine if the Earth was sufficiently weakened so TPTB could begin the transition to a One World Government and New World Order.<br />
The Earth, despite decades of unprecedented environmental damage and pollution, still had sufficient energy to resist the takeover and, in resisting, was the source of the energy that caused the Twin Towers to collapse and turn largely into dust.</p>
<p><strong>What are the indications that we know the Earth passed the test? </strong></p>
<p>We have a signed affidavit from an officer in the U.S. Navy:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I was an officer on the USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70) deployed in the Persian Gulf. On September 10<sup>th</sup>, our ship was chopped (turned around) in the Straits of Hormuz, went to Battle Condition II, and prepared to invade Iraq. The order to stand down came 5 hours after the 2nd tower collapsed. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[10]</a></p>
<p>The USS Carl Vinson was in the Persian Gulf with orders to invade Iraq. Logic would dictate the invasion would go forward when the buildings collapsed and not be called off. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[11]</a></p>
<p>The invasion of Iraq (the cradle of civilization) <em>was called off because TPTB understood the earth still had sufficient energy to resist and that energy caused the towers’ collapse</em>.</p>
<p>And if you need more proof the test passed, what did George W. Bush tell us do on 9/12? Answer: “Go Shopping.”</p>
<p>“Environmental Damage and Pollution are the Goal and Not the Unintended Consequence of Our Consumer (shopping) Society.” <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a></p>
<p>We will hear testimony from Dr. Judy Wood, the only scientist who has completed a forensic study of the photographic evidence from the WTC area before, on and after 9/11. The evidence she has compiled shows the effects related to experiments done by John Hutchinson and Nikola Tesla.</p>
<p>She will be followed by Mike Rivero and finally we will hear from Nikola Tesla via an interplanetary communication device.</p>
<p><strong>Call the first witness.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Testimony of Mike Rivero</strong></p>
<p>Bugliosi: Good morning Mr. Rivero, please tell the jury what you did before launching your website <a href="http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/">www.whatreallyhappened.com</a> for the CIA, and whether you are also known as <a href="http://letsrollforums.com/9-11-passenger-mystery-t20589.html?p=179006">John Wenckus? </a><strong><a href="http://letsrollforums.com/9-11-passenger-mystery-t20589p7.html">CNN Removes Picture of John J. Wenckus</a></strong></p>
<p>Rivero: Yes, I went by the name of John Wenckus when I worked for NASA.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: You have admitted your part in the conspiracy to produce the faked plane impacts with the World Trade Center using <a href="http://www.freedomdomain.com/911/911revisited.html">CNN Video Fakery/Cartoon CGI</a>.</p>
<p>What technical expertise qualified you for the task?</p>
<p>Rivero: I spent 25 years as a photo imaging expert analyst for NASA. During that time, I consulted in Hollywood on Sci-Fi projects and created the special effects for Star Trek, Stargate and the ABC hit miniseries &#8220;Lost.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Please summarize for the Jury CGI Video Fakery and the no-plane issue.</p>
<p>Rivero: The objective of the faked airplane crashes was to prevent discovery of the Metaphysical Catechism (Test).</p>
<p>TPTB suffer from OCD when it comes to their metaphysical struggle with the Earth; they don’t leave anything to chance. A real and present danger existed. What if the Earth prevailed (which it did on 9/11), and the profane (middle class) found out about the conspiracy to use humans to weaken the Earth with environmental damage by living in a consumer society?</p>
<p>Then people would stop shopping, watch <a href="http://www.storyofstuff.com/">The Story of Stuff</a> and then go out and form sustainable living communities like <a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Want-to-find-real-communit-by-Katherine-Smith-100825-450.html">Portland City Repair</a>. If that happened in <em>2001 the </em>TPTB would have been defeated long before <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/03/02/an-ominous-drilling-sign-for-the-truth"> October 29, 2008.</a> <a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Power-of-Community-by-Katherine-Smith-100813-23.html">The Power of Community</a>, <a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Why-was-I-born-Why-are-we-by-Katherine-Smith-P-100801-782.html">Why was I born? Why are we here?</a></p>
<p>The test designers built into the test a “gotcha.”</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Explain.</p>
<p>Rivero: They knew a scientist, like Dr. Judy Wood, would come forward and debunk Steven Jones. Dr. Wood has presented a compelling case for the collapse that explains the 1,400 cars that were toasted in inexplicable patterns and the dip of the Earth&#8217;s magnetic field at the precise moment of the supposed first plane &#8220;impact.&#8221; Furthermore, she calls attention to the presence of Hurricane Erin off the coast of New York on 9/11.</p>
<p>The test was designed to ensure that no one would listen to Dr. Wood.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: How was that accomplished?<strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p>Rivero: They used computer-generated video graphics to fake the plane crashes into the North and South towers, a.k.a. the no-plane theory.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: I’m having trouble. What do no-planes have to do with the no-controlled demolition of the Twin Towers?</p>
<p>Rivero: Actually, everything and nothing.</p>
<p>We knew that <a href="http://www.septclues.com/">investigators</a> would quickly realize the physical impossibility of jumbo jets, being largely aluminum, penetrating the steel frames of the towers.</p>
<p>Look at this image of the second impact, taken from a news helicopter which shows a video composite of a Boeing 767 accidentally appearing from behind a layer mask.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.rumormillnews.com/pix5/Noplaneseoutframe.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.rumormillnews.com/pix5/Noplaneseoutframe.jpg"><img class="alignnone" title="Nose Out" src="http://www.rumormillnews.com/pix5/Noplaneseoutframe.jpg" alt="" width="233" height="174" /></a></p>
<p>We knew that even an amateur researcher would figure out that digital compositing was used to depict the plane crashes in the news reports and subsequent amateur videos, so then we “had” them.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: I am not sure the jury is following your logic.</p>
<p>Rivero: Everyone on the team realized a legitimate investigator or truth seeker has integrity and a duty to report everything they discover, even if it has no relevance or importance to the events under investigation.</p>
<p>When the investigators reported on the impossibility of a Theory of Controlled Demolition, they would also report that no planes were flown into the Twin Towers. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[12]</a></p>
<p>Look at this statement from Morgan Reynolds:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;There were no planes, there were no hijackers. I know, I know, I&#8217;m out of the mainstream, but that&#8217;s the way it is. How could two large wide-bodied aluminum jetliners penetrate massive steel towers and disappear with no deceleration visible, no plane wreckage visible in gashes and none knocked to the ground below the impact zone?”</p>
<p>Reynolds knows he is out of the mainstream and he knows the issue is irrelevant to his discovery that controlled demolition could never explain the collapse of the Twin Towers.</p>
<p>But once he put his no-plane (foot) in his mouth, it became the hyper-straw man by which ALL of his theories could be attacked. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[13]</a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The crackpot theories like &#8220;no-planes, pods, energy weapons, holograms,&#8221; etc., were all looked at by many of us many years ago; we found there to be no truth to any of them and deemed them disinfo.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The WTC demolitions are proven and the official 9/11 airliner tales are proven hogwash. This article, the beneficiary of work by many other investigators, proves it. I await the replies of Hoffman and other apologists to reestablish the official, albeit impossible, airliner stories. I expect little more than obfuscation. What really happened? I do not know. What is clear is that the government is lying about the four reported Big Boeing crashes.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I don&#8217;t like these theories because they require a level of technology in excess of what&#8217;s needed to do the job. Global Hawk + nanothermite = Job Done.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The no-planers actually create the disinfo they peddle, so they&#8217;re otherwise known as disinfo artists. Several of them have grievances with the 9/11 Truth movement, so that is the likely reason they create the disinfo and try to pass it off as &#8220;9/11 Truth&#8221; to make the movement look bad.</p>
<p>“The 9/11 Truth Movement served the dual purpose of vectoring genuine truth seekers to dead ends and branding those who questioned authority and the true nature of reality (the Theory of Controlled Demolition) as insane.”</p>
<p>The Truthers, who saw “there was no break in the building wall between the port engine and fuselage when the <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/images-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911">757 allegedly hit the North Tower</a>,” were threatened with violence and banned from conspiracy theory websites.</p>
<p>Everyone else in the “Truth” community kept quiet and accepted Professor James Fetzer’s explanation:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">“It’s Tactical. Even if they (the advocates of No Plane Theory) are right, it hurts the movement. Many feel that there is so much evidence of government complicity beyond the issue of big passenger jets that diverting attention to the one thing most people believe that they &#8220;saw&#8221; is not to our tactical and strategic advantage.”</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Whoa, that’s a lot to take in.</p>
<p>Rivero: Yes, but, if you think about it, you have to appreciate the lengths TPTB were willing to go to keep anyone from finding out about the metaphysical struggle. My favorite ad hominem attack:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">What it boils down to is that not a single legitimate research organization in the 9/11 Truth movement supports any of these crackpot disinfo theories. Not scholars, pilots, architects and engineers, lawyers, firefigters, 9/11 bloggers, Loose Change, you name it. Nobody supports these fringe theories. [all “illegitimate” organizations run by the CIA]</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Call the next witness:</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Good afternoon Dr. Wood. Thank you for taking time to testify at these proceedings.</p>
<p>Wood: You are welcome.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Dr. Wood, please inform the jury about your science background and explain your theory of the collapse of the Twin Towers.</p>
<p>Wood: I am a former professor of mechanical engineering, with expertise in material science. My research concludes the buildings were destroyed using some type of “field effect technology,” related to what has become known as the Hutchison Effect and the presence of Hurricane Erin. <a href="http://www.unfilteredhistory.com/blog/uncategorized/appendix-911-new-york-city-grand-jury-hands-down-indictment-on-911/">[14]</a></p>
<p>Bugliosi: Dr. Wood, you raise important questions about the so-called collapse and the dip of the Earth&#8217;s magnetic field at the precise moment of the supposed first plane &#8220;impact.&#8221;</p>
<p>Can we safely assume you are aware of the Radiant Energy research by <a href="http://educate-yourself.org/fe/radiantenergystory.shtml">Nikola Tesla</a> in the Late 19th Century?</p>
<p>Wood: Of course, who isn’t?</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Tesla, as you may or may not know, had a metaphysical view of the Earth when he and Rudolf Steiner affirmed that the “ether” was composed of four fractions which he described as, 1) the Light Ether, 2) the Warmth Ether, 3) the Chemical Ether and 4) the Life Ether, a combination of the first three. <a href="http://www.teslaphysics.com/">Tesla Physics</a></p>
<p>The energy from the <a href="http://www.reformation.org/tesla-and-tunguska.html">Tunguska Event</a>, an explosion in 1908 was 1,000 times more powerful than the Hiroshima atomic bomb and destroyed over 1,000 miles of a very remote and sparsely inhabited region of central Siberia.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: As you have referenced Tesla in your own research, would you agree Radiant Energy (from the ether) could explain the collapse of the Twin Towers?</p>
<p>Wood: I can’t be sure. I didn’t investigate Tesla’s theory; however, when John Hutchison tried to reproduce some of Tesla&#8217;s experiments, he reported that sometimes objects would move or be affected up to 1 or 2 blocks away from his apartment.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: I would like to read a statement to the jury from your associate <a href="http://www.checktheevidence.co.uk/cms/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=206&amp;Itemid=76">Andrew Johnson</a>:</p>
<p>&#8220;I, Andrew Johnson do no know exactly how the energy used to destroy the WTC manifested itself, but the buildings are no longer there, so the energy source did, indeed, manifest itself.</p>
<p>One question that has arisen is what the energy source for the destruction of the WTC actually was. Once the evidence is studied, it can be clearly seen that it is not gravity, kerosene or plane crashes. It is also not thermite, RDX or even conventional nuclear explosives.</p>
<p>Dr Judy Wood&#8217;s study shows that the characteristics of the Hutchison Effect, originally demonstrated with increasing degrees of reliability from the early 80&#8217;s to the present day, are a precise match for the evidence found after and during in the destruction of the WTC.</p>
<p>One of the primary indicators is the huge energy change which occurred, where at least 85% of the buildings turned to dust in approximately 20 seconds, and which was accompanied by a tiny change in ambient temperature. Asymptomatic of the energy generated in an explosion.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">That is, we did not see people who were right in the dust cloud being burned alive. (This simple observation is often overlooked.)</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">So, what is the source of the &#8220;Hutchison Energy?&#8221; I, myself, do not precisely know, but it appears that the interference effects involved in Hutchison&#8217;s experiments unlock some other energy source &#8211; which may be described as Zero Point Energy, Vacuum Energy or, who knows, possibly even Orgone Energy (discovered by Wilhelm Reich).&#8221;</p>
<p>[End of Andrew Johnson statement]</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Is this an accurate assessment of your research?</p>
<p>Wood: Yes.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Dr. Wood, what is your conclusion on how the Twin Towers were turned largely into dust?</p>
<p>Wood: We believe the evidence is consistent with the use of directed energy weapons that go well beyond the capabilities of conventional explosives. The only energy that can explain the dip in the earth’s magnetic surface is “…something which had a long-range effect, not limited to the region around the World Trade Center.”</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Dr. Wood, you have yet to address what would be the motive of the U.S. government to have tested/used an energy directed weapon on 9/11?</p>
<p>Wood: My research does not try to determine what the source of this energy is &#8211; whether it is within matter itself or whether it is, perhaps, a part of the &#8220;Radiant Energy&#8221; which Tesla discovered.</p>
<p>What is clear is that the experiments that John Hutchison has been doing do not seem to be identical to any that are recorded as having being done by Tesla, though John Hutchison has used Tesla coils as an electrostatic source in some of his past experiments.</p>
<p>Some might say the 9/11 perpetrators knew of a way to exploit &#8220;Earth energy&#8221; or &#8220;universal energy&#8221; as part of a weapons system &#8211; and that this formed part of a &#8220;larger exercise.&#8221; The source of the energy is open to debate &#8211; as is the motive behind why this type of weapon was used on that site at that time.</p>
<p>My position is that use of the weapon was a demonstration of &#8220;free energy&#8221; technology &#8211; and that we (or some group of people) have a choice as to how we use this energy source.</p>
<p>I am a scientist and don’t speculate as to why they did it. I am convinced they did use an energy weapon on 9/11 to bring down the Twin Towers. [14]</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Dr. Wood, thank you for your testimony. We will now contact our next witness, Nikola Tesla via an interplanetary communication device using a magnifying transmitting tower, designed in 1901, by the witness himself at the Wardenclyffe laboratory in Shoreham, Long Island. Nikola, can you hear us?</p>
<p>Tesla: Yes, you are coming in loud and clear.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Mr. Tesla did you know that you are now among the 100 most famous people to have lived in the last 1,000 years? <a href="http://www.teslasociety.com/">Tesla Memorial Society of New York</a></p>
<p>Tesla: I am humbled to say the least.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Mr. Tesla, TPTB have been charged with One World Government and New World Order conspiracy. Are you familiar with the defendants?</p>
<p>Tesla: J. Pierpont Morgan was a founding “Power That Be” member and his connection to The House of Rothschild (the power behind TPTB) is the Skull and Bones Society through the <a href="http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/esp_sociopol_skullbones04.htm">Davison Family</a>. He gave me the money to build the Wardenclyffe laboratory.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Did Morgan’s decision to withdraw the funding for Wardenclyffe have anything to do with the quote often attributed to the famous financier?</p>
<p>&#8220;If anyone can draw on the power, where do we put the meter?&#8221;</p>
<p>Tesla: No, that was another misattributed quote that TPTB made sure found its way into our filtered history.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: What do you mean?</p>
<p>Tesla: The “<em>Let them eat </em><em>cake”</em> phrase, misattributed to <em>Marie Antoinette, was to give the middle class (former serfs and slaves) living the American Dream (a nightmare for the planet) the impression that the revolution </em>began as a public uprising over lack of food and government representation and not by cells of French Masonry and the German Illuminati<em> (The House of Rothschild, </em>TPTB<em>). </em><a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article18909.html">Liberté, Enlightenté, Entitleté </a></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">“If one desires to point to a major world event proven to have been inspired by secret society machinations [of the Illuminati], one need to look no further than the French Revolution, which devastated that nation between 1787 and 1799.”<em> The Masonic book A Ritual and Illustrations of Freemasonry</em> by Nesta H. Webster.</p>
<p>Tesla: The &#8220;where do we put the meter&#8221; phrase is to perpetuate the myth that everything that is wrong in America is about someone getting rich while we are getting swindled.</p>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that found its way into the history books and the writings of economic experts, is that, somehow, J.P. Morgan and TPTB (swindlers and scoundrels of history) were made wealthier accumulating the monopoly money they printed.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: What, that isn’t true?</p>
<p>Tesla: Vince, according to one source in the late 1800s, when the planet was still in ecological balance, &#8220;it was estimated TPTB controlled almost half the wealth of the world” <em>The Power Of The Rothschilds</em> By Fritz Springmeier, <em>The History of the House of Rothschild</em> by Andrew Hitchcock</p>
<p>That would be real wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold and the coal reserves of the U.S.</p>
<p>Vince, how much do you think they are worth today?</p>
<p>Bugliosi: I am not sure but I hear they have a lot of money.</p>
<p>Tesla: And that’s my point: wealth isn’t fiat currency (monopoly money), wealth is raw materials, commodities, iron ore, petroleum, lead, copper, silver, gold and don’t forget the coal reserves used to generate 54% of the electricity in the U.S. for the last 100 years.</p>
<p>So Vince, the $500 trillion dollar question is, what happened to their real wealth, where is it now?</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Now I see where you are going; their real wealth was burned up as in consumed, by the middle class so former members of the Third Estate (serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs and leave the lights on because their goal all along was to “make electricity so cheap that only the rich will be able to burn candles.&#8221;</p>
<p>Tesla: Yep, and now we get to the best part of this mental monopoly money masturbation exercise. Let’s say J.P. was clueless and didn’t understand he was exchanging his <em>real</em> wealth for the monopoly money his central banks were printing “out of thin air.”</p>
<p>We would have to assume he had some obsessive compulsive desire to be the robber baron that accumulated the most monopoly money in history.</p>
<p>Vince, are you following?</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Yes.</p>
<p>Tesla: All right, then, how do you reconcile Edison’s statement, “electricity so cheap” with the J.P.’s quote, &#8220;If anyone can draw on the power, where do we put the meter?&#8221;</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Now you have lost me again.</p>
<p>Tesla: Sorry, I realize all this is new but it’s really quite simple: you are aware that the “Public” Utilities Commission regulates privately owned electric utilities “allegedly” to provide safe, adequate, reliable service at fair, reasonable rates.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Yes, but now I realize that “fair and reasonable” should be replaced with “to provide electricity, so cheap that we will use it irresponsibly.”</p>
<p>Tesla: Vince, you catch on fast. Look, there are only six possibilities why J.P. Morgan and the swindlers and scoundrels downward-manipulate the costs, that is, they manipulated the price of electricity lower, not higher as you would expect, so the mining industry can still make a profit when your utility bill is $50/month. <a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article7746.html">Silver, But No Silver Lining</a>,</p>
<ol>
<li>The energy markets are too complex to understand.</li>
<li>Politics bumping into economics: Consumers don’t like price fluctuations and, thus, the pressure is on politicians to keep stringent price caps.</li>
<li>Corporations don’t rule the Congress, the Senate and of course the Pubic Utility Commissions. Mark Twain was talking about 1890 when he said: &#8220;We have the best government that money can buy.&#8221; Everything changed <em>for the people</em> in the 20<sup>th</sup> century.</li>
<li>Lobbyists hired by the coal mining industry for the first and only time in legislative history <em>failed</em> to influence public policy to make a profit.</li>
<li>Shelby Foote, notable historian of the Civil War was wrong when he said, government “of and by and for the people” perished from the Earth when our beloved President Lincoln slaughtered 620,000 Americans to end our right of self-determination.</li>
<li>J.P. Morgan and the coal industry didn’t realize the average utility bill over the last 100 years (less than $50.00/month) would still be considered cheap if it was 3% higher ($51.50/month). Can you calculate how much extra monopoly money those scoundrels would have today if your electricity bill was 3% higher? (75,000,000 Households x 12 months x $1.50 x 50 years = )</li>
</ol>
<p>Vince, I think you would agree that none of the above makes any sense.</p>
<p>The cost of electricity is downward-manipulated to diminish its value to the user and increase demand. Can you guess why? <a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14621.html">The Myth of &#8220;Free&#8221; Enterprise Economic System</a></p>
<p>Bugliosi: Electricity generated from coal-fired plants is the dirtiest source of energy and contributes to smog, soot, acid rain, global warming, toxic air emissions and, of course, is instrumental in TPTB’s strategy to weaken the Earth.</p>
<p>Nikola, you are a genius and deserve to be one of the 100 most famous people to have lived in the last 1,000 years and you are a man with a broad vision of the cosmos and the role that the ether (or aether) plays in the manifestations of all electrical phenomena.</p>
<p>Furthermore, you have confirmed our allegation that TPTB wanted to weaken the Earth.</p>
<p>Can you confirm if a Metaphysical Catechism would result in <a href="http://educate-yourself.org/fe/radiantenergystory.shtml">the creation of an abrupt disruption in the equilibrium of the ether fractions</a> (Light, Warmth and Chemical Ethers) using one-way, high-magnitude pulses of short duration could explain the collapse of the Twin Towers?</p>
<p>Tesla: Yes it would and I might add the Towers would turn the largely to dust.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: Could you describe in layman’s terms what were the details of the Metaphysical Catechism (Test) for the jury?</p>
<p>Yes, but first we must verify The Basic Archetypal Background<strong>:</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">“The events of 9/11 are immensely complex, beyond words really, with so many causes, consequences, and dimensions. But the planetary archetypal situation was dramatically clear. In the last few weeks the planetary alignment that represents the heaviest—the darkest, most weighty, mortally serious, historically grave—of all archetypal combinations, the Saturn-Pluto alignment, reached exactitude, an opposition.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The first two weeks of this month in particular were critical, as the Sun and Full Moon moved into a rare and extraordinarily precise grand cross (two oppositions&#8211;Saturn with Pluto, Sun with Moon&#8211;both 90 degree square to each other).” <a href="http://www.gaiamind.org/WTCNotes.html">Click here</a> to read ”Notes on World Trade Center attack September 11, 2001” by Richard Tarnas</p>
<p>As you can see the day was immensely significant metaphysically and astrologically.</p>
<p>Bugliosi: No kidding.</p>
<p>Tesla: The easiest way to understand a Metaphysical Catechism is to imagine an Arm Wrestling match, considered by many to be the ultimate test of strength, between TPTB and the Earth with the legs of the Arm Wrestling table the North and South Tower.</p>
<p>Arm Wrestling is a battle of leverage, and the strategies and techniques depend on the location and time of the Arm Wrestling match.</p>
<p>On 9/11, TPTB failed to demonstrate good sportsmanship when they violated rules from the <em>American Metaphysical Armsport Association: Rules, Conducts and Manners</em> manual.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Rule #15032 – failure to give notice.<br />
Rule #25443 – participants must mutually agree on the location of the match. <em> </em></p>
<p>TPTB are known for using the Sidemore strategy:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;I never, ever, ever go to the inside on a bigger guy. The reason is that if I cannot take him down immediately then he can probably throw his weight into the match and pin me in a heartbeat. To me a quick surge of backpressure is the only way to go. Finger attacks are the way to go. &#8221; &#8211; Mark Sidemore</p>
<p>8:46 a.m. &#8211; Arm Wrestling initiated by TPTB, in violation of rule #15032, at the electro-magnetic grid location 40° 42&#8242; 41.3852&#8243;, -74° 0&#8242; 44.0064 (One World Trade Center).</p>
<p>The TPTB began with a surge in backpressure. The Sidemore technique had a high probability of success because the powerful electromagnetic frequencies from the micro cities would interfere with the Earth’s energy. The intention was to further weaken an Earth (suffering from decades of environmental damage and pollution) which possessed greater strength than TPTB.</p>
<p>Although the Sidemore attack failed, TPTB knew that the Earth would not throw her weight into the match and pin TPTB.</p>
<p>Why? Because the energy required in a toproll maneuver would result in the collapse of the North and South Tower Arm Wrestling table legs, killing all 17,400 occupants in an unusually horrible and agonizing death.</p>
<p>The Earth would never do such an abominable thing to innocent bystanders (<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/04/30/the-key-to-the-secret-of-the-universe-pa-2">Click here</a> to read why TPTB killed 70 million people to ensure the Jews arrived in Haifa not in 1946, or 1950 but in <em>1948)</em>.</p>
<p>Instead the Earth was limited to a quick surge of backpressure, releasing enough energy to keep from being pinned and prolonging the match until the Towers could be safely evacuated.</p>
<p>A toproll from TPTB locked the Earth in a death grip followed by 73 minutes of surges from side to side, counting on the micro cities’ powerful electrical systems to drain the Earth’s energy. During that time the earth perspired, which explains the presence of Hurricane Erin off the coast of New York.</p>
<p>9:59:04 a.m. Exhausted from the interference from the electricity and the protracted back and forth pivots, the Earth’s grip was slipping, the arm and hand were in the losing position, as they were below two-thirds of the way to the pin pad.</p>
<p>Because nearly everyone was safely evacuated from the South Tower, the Earth summoned all of her strength and an enormous surge of energy came forth. She was able to execute an outside toproll maneuver and the match was saved. The energy expended for the maneuver caused the Arm Wrestling table leg of the South Tower to collapse.</p>
<p>The match continued an additional 29 minutes while 90% of the occupants were safely evacuated from the North Tower.</p>
<p>10:28:31 a.m. The Earth executed a toproll followed by the press. The match was over. The Earth was declared the winner and the Arm Wrestling table leg of the North Tower collapsed. Five hours later the invasion of the cradle of civilization <em>was called off because TPTB were defeated</em>.</p>
<p>And if you need more proof TPTB accepted defeat, what did George W. Bush tell us do on 9/12? Answer: “Go Shopping.”</p>
<p>“Environmental Damage and Pollution are the Goal and Not the Unintended Consequence of Our Consumer (shopping) Society.” <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/04/23/liberte-enlightente-entitlete">Liberté, Enlightenté, Entitleté</a></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">When the loss of fluids reaches a critical level, the earth is struggling to pump heavy, thick, sluggish serum that is not only pressurized, but is also hot. As it is extracted, the tortured lungs of the earth are suffocating and are making a frantic effort to inhale small gulps of air.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The pressure gradually decreases, making it less profitable to take the remaining serum, but to make doubly sure of a mortal wound, the legionnaire uses external-energy to pierce and inject cold water into the sac surrounding the heart.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>On June 15, 2010, Barack Obama addresses the nation on the Crusextraction of the earth.</strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;">“The millions of gallons of oil that have spilled into the Gulf of Mexico are more like an epidemic<em>, </em>one that we will be <em>fighting</em> for months and even years<em>.</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;">But make no mistake: we will <em>fight</em> this spill with everything we’ve got for as long it takes.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;">Tonight I’d like to lay out for you what our <em>battle plan</em> is going forward: what we’re doing to clean up the oil, what we’re doing to help our neighbors in the Gulf, and what we’re doing to make sure that a catastrophe like this never happens again.”</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Capture, clean up, help our neighbors…but to stop the 60,000 barrels of fluids being poured out every day is not a priority because the legionnaire wants the spill to go on for <em>months and even years.</em></p>
<blockquote style="text-align: left;"><p>“They shall look on Him whom they pierced”</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;">A legionnaire does not give aid and cap the wounds of his enemy. He watches as the fluids are poured out in the water.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>The worst environmental disaster in our history and the 2008 Financial Collapse are related.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Steven Kopits, managing director of Douglas-Westwood, notes the US oil demand in a mild recession declines about 3%.</p>
<blockquote style="text-align: left;"><p>“In the current recession, oil demand briefly dropped nearly 3 mbpd from its peak, about half of which occurred in <em>September 2008</em> in the aftermath of the collapse of financial markets following the bankruptcy of the investment bank Lehman Brothers.</p>
<p>If we allow that this will be a severe – but not catastrophic – recession, then a drop of 7%, or 1.5 mbpd of US consumption from peak to trough, is entirely possible.” <em>Recession &amp; Oil Demand</em> by Steven Kopits</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;">Current estimates of the BP oil Crusextraction (spill) are an insignificant 35,000 – 60,000 barrels per day.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Steven estimates that the earth is “<em>benefiting”</em> from the 2008 recession at the rate of 1,500,000 barrels per day!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">An explosion on an oil-drilling rig off the coast of southeast Louisiana did not reveal a heretofore undiscovered vulnerability in the earth’s crust.</p>

<p>CBS&#8217;s Chip Reid asked about the resignation hours earlier of Elizabeth Birnbaum, head of the MMS, or Minerals Management Service. &#8220;I found out about her resignation today,&#8221; Obama replied.

<p>That&#8217;s very clear, sir. But why not share some with the guys at BP who actually are responsible for the spill?”</p></blockquote>
<p>The leak, instead of being 210,000 gallons of the Earth’s vital fluids being extracted, the <a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/greenspace/2010/05/gulf-oil-spill-60000-barrels-a-day-could-be-spilling-in-worst-case.html"><em>Los Angeles Times</em></a> is now reporting that BP admits “that the leak rate is around <strong>2.5 million gallons a day</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>Crusextraction of the Earth, Response: Earthquakes And Tsunamis</strong></p>
<p>In 2005, world oil-production alone (not including natural-gas) was an incomprehensible 80 – 100 million barrels of oil per day.</p>
<p>USGS coastal geologists understand these factors cannot be ignored as far as influencing earth crust stresses and<em> </em>confirm the earth’s response to extracting by force 3,360,000,000 – 4,200,000,000 gallons of the planets vital fluids every single day: Earthquakes and tsunamis.</p>
<p>While disagreement abounds on this topic, scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) say that oil production at plate boundaries where hard, rocky slabs slide against each other to releases tremendous amounts of energy and could be the cause for the 2004 quake that triggered a deadly tsunami in Sumatra.</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here&#8217;s how it works: With high-tech equipment, oil companies pinpoint oil-rich areas and use large drills to puncture the surface below the sea, sometimes as deep as 10,000 feet. As this pricey fluid gets sucked from the sediment pores, the surrounding rocks shift positions to fill in the newly vacated spaces. At a large scale, for example the volume displaced when millions of barrels of oil are produced, the land movement can actually cause a mini-seismic earthquake, said Robert Morton, a USGS coastal geologist.</p></blockquote>
<p>During these various stages the globe of the earth is gradually being depressurized and cooled internally, causing contraction for both of these reasons. When objects cool down, they automatically shrink/contract in size. If you let high-pressure air or gas out of a cylinder, it forms ice around the outlet, and cools the entire cylinder. If you let some of the air out of a football, or basketball, the ball shrinks and goes badly out of shape.”</p>
<blockquote><p>“Apply that to the Earth and you have earthquakes – simple common-sense – not rocket-science. A fact so simple that anyone who understands the oil-extraction process would understand, but, because they are insanely-blinded by their insatiable greed and avarice, they often overlook the obvious.” (Paul Noel, JAH, Sterling D. Allan and Mary-Sue Halliburton) [3]</p></blockquote>

</ul>
<p>The following verses identify the Mosque of Omar (the Dome of the Rock), built in 688 A.D. as the  “abomination of the desolation” as spoken of by the messiah Jesus Christ:</p>
<blockquote><p>But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand). Mark 13:14</p></blockquote>
<p>And the prophet Daniel:</p>
<blockquote><p>And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. Daniel 11, v31</p></blockquote>
<p>The Dome of the Rock was one of the most important events for Christians, Jews and Muslims. [1]</p>
<p>Ian Gurney’s <em style="font-style: italic;">The Cassandra Prophecy</em>, which contained the exegesis that proved the abomination of desolation is the Dome of the Rock, is considered by some to be a work of unparalleled eschatological research and the seminal essay on the future according to ancient prophecy found in the book of Daniel and Revelation (A summary of Gurney’s work can be found in my article, <a href="http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/9109">Is Jesus Christ Coming Back to Earth in XXXXIII (2023)?)</a> [2]<a href="http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/9109"></a></p>
<p><em style="font-style: italic;">There is no possibility </em>the construction of The Dome of the Rock built in 688 A.D<em style="font-style: italic;">. or </em>that the people of Israel had their own state in 1948,<em style="font-style: italic;">was a chance occurrence.</em> [3]</p>
<p>Gurney correctly realized this was impossible without providence or miracles and <em style="font-style: italic;">incorrectly</em> concludes “Ancient prophecy and world events appear to be running in parallel, and mankind&#8217;s destiny seems to have already been foretold.”</p>
<p>Put another way, Gurney believes:</p>
<ol>
<li>God, in his omniscience, told the sixth <em style="font-style: italic;">century</em> B.C. prophet Daniel and the father of modern political Zionism, Theodor Herzl, these events would occur by providence or miracle.</li>
<li>God was the hidden hand behind the Scofield Bible, WW I, WW II, the Holocaust and the deaths of 70 million people because Jehovah wanted to see his chosen people arrive in Haifa not in 1946, or 1950 but in <em style="font-style: italic;">1948</em>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Mr. Gurney did not consider my <em style="font-style: italic;">conclusion</em> that:</p>
<ol>
<li>Satan told Daniel what to write and at the first Zionist conference in 1897, Baron Rothschild told Theodore Herzl that UN Resolution (GA 181) creating the Modern State of Israel would be adopted within 50 years.</li>
<li>Satan and the House of Rothschild (TPTB) were the not-so-hidden hand behind the Scofield Bible, WW I, WW II, the Holocaust and the deaths of 70 million people because there was a satanic purpose for the Jews arriving in Haifa not in 1946, or 1950 but in<em style="font-style: italic;">1948</em>. <a href="http://dprogram.net/2009/03/17/providence-miracle-or-what-really-happened/">The Modern State of Israel Providence, Miracle, or What Really Happened – Part 1/4</a> <a href="http://dprogram.net/2009/03/17/world-war-i-ii-part-2/">World War I, II – Part 2/4</a></li>
</ol>
<p>The <em>prima facie</em> case for my <em style="font-style: italic;">conclusion</em> can be found in Appendix A.</p>
<p>Look for the third and final installment: The Satanic purpose behind The House of Rothschild getting the Jews to The Modern State of Israel in 1948 and how it unlocks The Key to the Secret of the Universe.</p>

<p>Appendix A, a Prima Facie Case</p>
<p>Below are 10 allegations, facts and evidence used to prove a Prima Facie Case for:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Satan and the House of Rothschild (The Powers That Be, TBTB) were the not-so-hidden hand behind the Scofield Bible, WW I, WW II, the Holocaust and the deaths of 70 million people because there was a satanic purpose for the Jews arriving in Haifa not in 1946, or 1950 but in <em style="font-style: italic;">1948</em>.</p>
<p>1. The Modern State of Israel and therefore, the Dome of the Rock portends Armageddon [4]</p>
<p>2. Satan is behind all the secret societies in history.</p>

<p>[Authors Note: Lest anyone think the material contained herein is historical fiction, watch the History Channel documentary <em style="font-style: italic;">Mysteries of the Freemasons</em>]</p>
<p><strong style="font-weight: bold;">The House of Rothschild,  the Illuminati and The Mysteries of the Freemasons</strong></p>
<p>The &#8220;Illuminati&#8221; was a name used by a German sect that existed in the 15th century.</p>
<p>Dr. Adam Weishaupt, <em style="font-style: italic;">A Human Devil,</em> was born on February 6, 1748, the son of a Jewish (Khazar) rabbi had been indoctrinated into Egyptian occult. He studied the power of the Eleusinian mysteries and the influence exerted by the secret cult of the Pythagoreans. [5]</p>
<p>Weishaupt also studied the teachings of the Essenes, and acquired copies of the <em style="font-style: italic;">Kabal, The Major Key of Solomon and The Lesser Key of Solomon</em>, which revealed how to conjure up demons and perform occult rituals.</p>
<p>On May 1, 1776, under the direction of the newly formed House of Rothschild, he united all the different occult groups and founded the Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria, derived from Luciferian teachings, which became known as the Order of the Illuminati.</p>
<p>In 1776, one of those coincidences that don’t happen very often happened:</p>
<ul>
<li>May 10, 1776 the Continental Congress authorized the thirteen colonies to form local (provincial) governments.</li>
<li>Jul 4, 1776 The Declaration of Independence is signed.</li>
</ul>
<p>In 1777, Weishaupt joined the Eclectic Masonic lodge &#8220;Theodore of Good Counsel&#8221; in Munich, and near the end of 1778, he came up with the idea of merging the Illuminati and the Masons.</p>
<p>The Freemasons practiced the occult and professed to have the &#8216;light&#8217; received from Satan. By the middle of 1779, the Freemasons were under the complete influence of the Illuminati and the Rosicrucian Order.</p>
<p>Rosicrucians believe that “true knowledge of the universe can only be known by the elite”, who in turn have a responsibility to share this<em style="font-style: italic;">knowledge </em>with the masses.</p>
<p>Freemasonry uses the metaphors of operative stonemasons&#8217; tools and implements, against the allegorical backdrop of the building of King Solomon&#8217;s Temple, to convey the <em style="font-style: italic;">knowledge </em>to the masses.</p>
<p>The Mason’s system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols, serve only one purpose. They keep the profane (masses), “who aren’t fornicating and reading the papers” [Albert Camus], busy deciphering the symbols and clues that lead nowhere… until <em style="font-style: italic;">the time of the end</em>. [6]</p>
<p>The House of Rothschild (The Illuminati), responsible for all social cataclysms in the modern history are behind WW I, WW II and The Modern State of Israel because it was a pivotal and a necessary part of their plan for a New World Order. [7]</p>
<p>3.  Satan undoubtedly wrote, or at the very least, influenced the most important book in Western civilization, the Bible.</p>
<p>The followers of Judaism, Christianity and Islam who insist on the inerrancy of the Bible also believe in demonic spirits and would agree:</p>
<ul>
<li>Satan is not stupid, in fact, he is extremely clever</li>
<li>Satan can influence people and the writing of books</li>
<li>Satan has been around since before the creation of the world</li>
<li>Satan’s mission is to lead us away from the work of God</li>
</ul>
<p>And since Satan does his best work through religions, it’s obvious he would be present at the First <em style="font-style: italic;">Council of Nicaea</em> in AD 325 when the earlier gospels were gathered up and burned. <a href="http://satanwrotethebible.com/">Satan Wrote the Bible</a> [8] [9]</p>
<p>4.  Psychohistory can explain why professor Bart D. Ehrman, a professor of Religious Studies, considers “the Bible the most important book in Western Civilization.”</p>
<p>Anyone who thinks God wrote the Bible, should read Ehrman’s, <em style="font-style: italic;">Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why</em>.</p>
<p>Ehrman says he immerses himself in the Bible, “though he doesn&#8217;t believe in its infallibility”, because “ it is the most important book in Western civilization.”</p>
<p>Satan understood &#8220;the science of historical motivation,&#8221; (i.e. psychohistory – the study of psychology and history) and the principle of methodological individualism (Broadbeck; Danto; Mandelbaum).</p>
<p>Methodological individualism is the theory that  &#8220;the ultimate constituents of the social world are individual people.  Every complex situation, institution, or event is the result of a particular configuration and the interactions of groups &#8211; nations, political parties, gangs or tribes of individuals, their <em style="font-style: italic;">dispositions and beliefs</em>, and physical resources and environments&#8221; (Danto, 267).</p>
<p>All or part of the Bible has been translated into more than 1,200 languages, and every year more copies of the Bible are sold than of any other single book.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter what you believe about the Bible: The work of God or Satan, it needs to be studied because it shaped the <em style="font-style: italic;">dispositions and beliefs</em> of most of humanity on earth.</p>
<ol>
<li>There are only two possibilities why Satan left the Key in the Book of Daniel (688 A.D.):</li>
</ol>
<p>[Before you start arguing that you don’t accept Satan wrote the Bible and God left the Key in the book then consider the following: Jehovah put the Key in the book of Daniel (12:9) because he wanted you to find it but then in an earlier verse (12:2) forbids you from touching it or “running to and fro” trying to figure it because if you did manage to unseal it “knowledge shall be increased”, even to the time of the end]</p>
<p>1. Satan is arrogant, inept or just stupid and left the Key in verse 12:9. By the time he realized his mistake it was too late so he added the warning:  You are not allowed to touch it or “run to and fro trying to” figure it because if you unsealed it, “knowledge would increase”, even to the end of time (verse 12:2).</p>
<p>2. Satan is arrogant, but he is neither inept or stupid.</p>
<p>The Key could not have been discovered before 1948.</p>
<p>The Freemasons placed a pyramid, a Pagan temple of Satan worship, on the one dollar bill with the capstone not yet joined upon the top of the pyramid.</p>
<p>Included are the Latin words from the Great Seal of the United States of America, &#8216;Annuit Coeptis&#8217; which translates to &#8216;The Birth Of&#8217; and &#8216;Novus Ordo Seclorum&#8217; the &#8216;New World Order&#8217;.</p>
<p>The symbolism is to signify that the plan is not complete because three milestones on the road to a One World Government and New World Order had not taken place in 1776.</p>
<p>What was left to complete in 1776, 1789 or 1910?</p>
<ul>
<li>Historical Event 1 &#8211; the end of Diaspora. The people of Israel had their own state in 1948.</li>
<li>Historical Event 2 – the control of the holy of holies. The people of Israel had control of the Temple Mount in 1967</li>
<li>Historical Event 3 &#8211; Israel is at peace with its Arab neighbor took place in 1978</li>
</ul>
<p>The Key was not discovered until 1999 when <em style="font-style: italic;">The Cassandra Prophesy</em> was published.</p>
<p>However, the Key could not unlock any secret because Gurney came to the incorrect conclusion that “Ancient prophecy and world events appear to be running in parallel, and mankind&#8217;s destiny seems to have already been foretold.”</p>
<p>And to make doubly sure the Key could not unlock anything for as long as possible, Satan is behind the “error” made in 1898.  James Hastings, M.A., D.D. in 1898 published a dictionary of the Bible that analyzes the different interpretations of Daniel 11:31 and ignores the plain language of Mathew 24:15 and inexplicably identified “the abomination of desolation” as 167 B.C. [10]</p>
<p>Appendix Footnotes:</p>
<p>[4] The Modern State of Israel portends Armageddon.</p>
<p>Armageddon, the final battle, will come when someone blows up the Dome of the Rock. That magnificent golden domed mosque built on the site of Solomon’s Temple (the abomination of desolation) is preventing the return of the messiah. Radical Christians and Jews believe Christ will not come back to earth until the Jews rebuild the Temple.</p>
<p>Should the Dome be demolished, then for the first time in history, thanks to Saddam Hussein when he destroyed 90 percent of Iraq’s Wetlands, 200 million people could cross the Euphrates for a holy war in Jerusalem.</p>
<p>A war that will rid the planet of millions of useless eaters.</p>
<p>The Rothschild New World Order only needs 500 million of us for slaves. <a href="http://dprogram.net/2009/03/17/providence-miracle-or-what-really-happened/">The Modern State of Israel Series</a></p>
<p>[5] Gerald B. Winrod wrote in his <em style="font-style: italic;">Upon the Civil Amelioration of the Condition of the Jews</em> wrote in his book Adam Weishaupt is A Human Devil.</p>
<p>[6] Occultists love the number &#8220;13&#8243; (thirteen colonies)</p>
<p>1776 was the birth of our nation and in one of those coincidences that don’t happen very often, 1776 is the same year the modern Illuminati was formed.</p>
<p>The Great Seal was designed by the Freemasons, who were given the job of creating the occult and Masonic symbols by the Illuminati (TPTB) to keep the masses busy until the time of the end.</p>
<p>Careful analysis of the seal and the so-called American Eagle discloses: [10]</p>
<ul>
<li>13 leaves in the olive branch</li>
<li>13 bars and stripes in the shield</li>
<li>13 arrows in the right claw</li>
<li>13 letters in the &#8220;E Pluribus Unum&#8221; on the ribbon</li>
<li>13 stars in the green crest above</li>
<li>32 long feathers on its right wing representing the 32º in Freemasonry</li>
<li>13 granite stones in the Pyramid. (The 13 layers represent the 13 Illuminati bloodlines)</li>
<li>13 letters in Annuit Coeptis</li>
</ul>
<p>[7] TPTB, all members of the occult, are in a struggle to take over the Earth. <a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/03/02/an-ominous-drilling-sign-for-the-truth#more10301">An Ominous Drilling Sign for the Truth</a></p>
<p>[8] What is the best evidence that Satan wrote the Bible?</p>
<p>The Apostle Paul has the answer:  Eternal life (Immortality) with God is a <strong style="font-weight: bold;"><em style="font-style: italic;">free</em></strong><strong style="font-weight: bold;"> <em style="font-style: italic;">gift</em></strong><strong style="font-weight: bold;"><em style="font-style: italic;">.</em></strong></p>
<p>&#8220;For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the <em style="font-style: italic;">gift </em>of God; Not of works, lest any man should boast.&#8221; No man can stand before God in eternity, and boast that they &#8216;earned&#8217; their way to Heaven. All people in Heaven will be there only because of Jesus&#8217; <strong style="font-weight: bold;"><em style="font-style: italic;">Free</em><em style="font-style: italic;"> </em></strong><em style="font-style: italic;">Gift</em>, which He obtained from God because of His substitutionary death sacrifice on the Cross. Rather than punishing each person&#8217;s individual sins, God heaped all those sins on Jesus on the Cross Isaiah 53:2-12] In Ephesians 2:8-9</p>
<p>Now, you are probably thinking, &#8216;How can I obtain this <em style="font-style: italic;">free gift</em> of eternal life&#8217;? Again, the Bible is not silent. In Acts 16:25-33, the jailer anxiously asked Paul, &#8220;What must I do to be saved&#8221;? Paul answered &#8220;Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved &#8230;&#8221; verse 31&#8243;. You must <strong style="font-weight: bold;">BELIEVE </strong>on Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. To truly believe, you must place your complete faith and trust in Christ and rely upon Him as your <strong style="font-weight: bold;">only </strong>hope of salvation and eternal life. This is a matter of the heart and you cannot hope to deceive God by putting on an act because He knows everything about you. Many people mistakenly think that by merely believing the facts concerning Jesus Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection, they will be automatically be given the <em style="font-style: italic;">gift</em> of eternal life. But such is not the case. Preachers call that a &#8220;head knowledge and not a heart knowledge.&#8221; Salvation is <em style="font-style: italic;">freely </em>given, but only to those who are genuine believers.</p>
<p>Only The Bible reveals the truth about Salvation. Did I mention it’s a <em style="font-style: italic;">Free Gift</em>.</p>
<p>[9] The Bible “did not fall from the sky.” The books of the New Testament, written by the apostles, were selected by the Churches in the persons of its bishops and teachers in order to get the “story about Jesus” straight. How do we know that?</p>
<p>Luke 1: 1-4, where Luke, a friend and disciple of the apostle Paul (not jesus), wrote his gospel as “an orderly account” of the life, ministry, death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus after having “carefully studied” and consulting “eyewitnesses.”</p>
<p>Until that moment in history, Jesus was viewed by his followers as a mortal prophet….a great and powerful man, but a man nonetheless.  Then the “eyewitnesses” established Jesus’ officially as the Son of God.</p>
<p>[10] There are four stumbling blocks that have kept mankind and scholars from fully understanding the book of Revelation and the date of the 1st and 2nd Coming of the Messiah.</p>
<p>1.      Believers and Biblical scholars spend their time interpreting and reinterpreting the scriptures to convince themselves they either (a) get the blessings promised to Israel or (b) will be raptured right before the tribulation.</p>
<p>2.      The year of the 2nd Coming could not be verified until the latter half of the twentieth century.</p>
<p>3.      Christians incorrectly believe Mark 13, is a commandment by God that “no one is allowed to know something that “even the angels in heaven don’t know.”  God told Daniel the year, not the day or the hour.</p>
<p>4.      An “error” made over 1400 years ago.</p>
<p>An error made in the seventh century BC concerns an event that ranks as one of the most important in the history Jews, Christians and Muslims: “The abomination of the desolation”.</p>
<p>And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate Dan 11:31</p>
<p>James Hastings, M.A., D.D. in 1898 published a dictionary of the Bible that analyzes the different interpretations of Daniel 11:31 and ignores the plain language of Mathew 24:15:</p>
<p>When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand).</p>
<p>Inexplicably he concludes the verse refers to “The setting up by Antiochus Epiphanies of a small idol/altar on the altar of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem in 167 BC” and the Maccabean revolution.</p>
<p>Jesus contradicts this interpretation in the gospels,</p>
<p>But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand). Mark 13:14</p>
<p>The two verses refer to a conversation between Jesus, Peter, James and Andrew on theMount of Olives.  Before he mentions the abomination Jesus says the following to his disciples admiring the grandeur of the temple.</p>
<p>Seest thou these great buildings? There shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down Mark 13:2</p>
<p>Here Jesus is prophesying an event that is to take place within the lifetime of the disciples. August 29th in 70 A.D. (the exact same day the Babylonians burned down Solomon&#8217;s temple 657 years earlier) the Roman army razed Herod&#8217;s Temple to the ground.</p>
<p>As Jesus places the event of the abomination after the destruction of the temple in 70 A.D. and uses the words “when ye shall see” (Mark 13:14), he places the event in the future.</p>
<p>It is impossible the abomination spoken of by Jesus could have taken place prior to 70 AD and therefore any exegesis that identifies the abomination, as 167 B.C. is the “error” made over 1400 years ago.</p>

<p>I found, according to me, the key to the secret of universe while “wandering into a spiritual area, where I had little knowledge.”</p>
<p>I wrote an essay based on a book by Ian Gurney, the Cassandra Prophesy: “<a href="http://www.atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/8474-is-jesus-christ-coming-back-to-earth-in-xxxxiii-2023.html">Is Jesus Christ Coming Back to Earth in XXXXIII (2023)?”</a>.</p>
<p>I claim the key to the secret can be found by identifying “the abomination of the desolation” as spoken of by the prophet Daniel in the Greatest Book of Disinformation ever written (The Bible):</p>
<blockquote><p>But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand). Mark 13:14</p></blockquote>
<p>Ian Gurney, in 1999,  correctly identified one of the most important events for Christians, Jews and Muslims:</p>
<blockquote><p>And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. Daniel 11, v31</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>An Arithmetic Challenge</strong></p>
<p>Step 1: Select any historical writing (fiction or non fiction), for example, a book, documentary or a bible.</p>
<p>Step 2: Select any three historical events from the writings in Step 1, that you think are prophetic. You are free to make any case, no matter how weak, that the description of the events you chose was prophetic and took place in the future.</p>
<p>Step 3: Select any three numbers from the writings in Step 1 that you can make a prima facie case, no matter how weak, represent an elapsed time interval from a third historical event or the date of an historical event.</p>
<p>That is, the writings are prophetic in that they claim the three historical events you selected in Step 1 will take place when the time period of the three intervals has elapsed or the date those historical events took place.</p>
<p>Step 4: Perform an arithmetic calculation to ensure that all three events when the intervals are subtracted result in the same date (or were the dates of the historical events), you identified in Step 2.</p>
<p><em>I realize this is a little confusing so I will give you an example from:</em></p>
<p>Step 1: The Bible</p>
<p>Step 2 (Prophetic Events)</p>
<ul>
<li>Historical Event 1 &#8211; the end of Diaspora. The people of Israel had their own state in 1948.</li>
<li>Historical Event 2 – the control of the holies of holies. The people of Israel had control of the Temple Mount in 1967</li>
<li>Historical Event 3 &#8211; Israel is at peace with its Arab neighbor took place in 1978</li>
</ul>
<p>Step 3:</p>
<ul>
<li>An elapsed time from the “abomination of desolation” to the end of Diaspora = 1260</li>
<li>An elapsed time from the “abomination of desolation” to a time when the Jews will again control the holiest of holies = 1279</li>
<li>An elapsed time from the “abomination of desolation” to a time when Israel was at peace with its Arab neighbor = 1290</li>
</ul>
<p>Step 4: Perform the arithmetic calculation to ensure that all three events when the intervals are subtracted result in the same date, you identified in Step 2.</p>
<ul>
<li>1948 – 1260 = 688 AD</li>
<li>1967 – 1279 = 688 AD</li>
<li>1978 – 1290 = 688 AD</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Construction begins on the abomination of desolation in 688 A.D.</strong></p>
<p>On the death of Abu Bakr, Omar ibn al Khattab, advisor to Mohammed became the second caliph and ordered that a magnificent golden domed mosque, Islam’s third holiest shrine, be built… directly over  “the most holy place” in Jerusalem.</p>
<p>The Mosque of Omar, The Dome of the Rock is the correct identification of the abomination of desolation.</p>
<p>Coming next: How to use the Key to unlock the Secret to the Universe?</p>
<p>[Excerpt, from <a href="http://www.disinfo.com/2010/03/an-ominous-drilling-sign-for-the-truth/">An Ominous Drilling Sign for the Truth</a>]</p>
<p>The Powers That Be (TPTB), are in a metaphysical struggle with Mother-Earth (Gaea) and created the middle class afflicted with “The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement” (The American Dream) for the last 75 years, in order to weaken the planet with environmental damage and pollution. (<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a>)</p>
<p>On October 29, 2008, TPTB determined their plan did not succeed: They were unable to defeat Gaea.</p>
<p>Gehenna and the abyss is the eternal destination and a thousand years of punishment for The House of Rothschild, Global elite, Illuminati, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (wicked people).</p>
<p>TPTB did not wish to spend eternity in Hell, so between October of 2008 and October 2009, they threatened Gaea with World War III. &#8220;Escalation Scenarios: The Third World War and Its Aftermath&#8221; (Pakalert) and Dr. Strangelove articles were everywhere in the media.</p>
<p>There are only three outcomes to this galactic metaphysical struggle that goes back, at least, to the Dark Ages: (<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a>)</p>
<ol>
<li>Gaea determines man’s future.</li>
<li>TPTB determine man’s future in a new World Order where they attain immortality and rid the planet of all but 500 million useful eaters.</li>
<li>TPTP are defeated (As I claim they were October 2008) and have three choices:</li>
</ol>
<blockquote><p>1. The dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan (TPTB) can accept defeat and agree to be tossed into the Abyss, be locked up for a 1000 years and then thrown into the Lake of Fire.</p>
<p>2. Make good on a threat of total world annihilation (i.e. Nagasaki and Hiroshima) and spend a 1000 years in the 700-acre, secret subterranean city, deep within the bedrock underneath Central Park in Manhattan (Manhattan Project). This assumes Gaea allows them to launch WWIII. [4]</p>
<p>3. Continue to drill holes in the earth (Perpetual Check) prolonging the inevitable looking for a heretofore-undiscovered vulnerability in the Earth’s crust.</p></blockquote>
<p>I know not what course others may take, but as for me I hope the TPTB accept defeat and are thrown into the Lake of Fire.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The year is 2010 and to anyone not in denial, the industrialized nations have entered the greatest calamity the world has ever known:</p>
<ul>
<li>Iceland is history.</li>
<li>Greece’s economy, much like the ancient Parthenon, is in ruin.</li>
<li>46 states could face bankruptcy in the United States.</li>
</ul>
<h2><span style="font-weight: normal;font-size: 13px">So then, why is President <em>Obama going back on his word and drilling holes in the earth?</em></span></h2>
<p>The Interior Department under Barack Obama offered for sale more acres of dry-land drilling on public lands than the Bush Administration had at the same point in 2008.</p>
<p>An economy in a state of rigor mortis doesn’t need oil to lubricate an engine that blew up on October 29, 2008, and our way of life won’t come back if the oil industry creates a handful of jobs or we reduce our dependence on foreign oil.</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill </em>didn’t make<em> </em>environmental<em> </em>sense in 1973 or 2008</strong></p>
<p>In 1973<em>,</em> America’s solution to the Arab oil embargo and long gas lines wasn’t mass transit, high mileage cars or alternative energy, it was the 800 mile Trans-Alaska Pipeline through some of the most pristine country in Alaska.</p>
<p>Then in 2008, in response to $5.00/gallon gasoline, Americans agreed to give up their last Arctic Wilderness and do more offshore drilling.</p>
<p>Despite the fact that the oil companies and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), an independent statistical agency within the Department of Energy, estimated that new oil from ANWR would have only a negligible impact on the world price of oil. The EIA projection for oil production in the ANWR would amount to 0.4 to 1.2 percent of total world oil consumption in <em>2030</em>, assuming the U.S. congress approved legislation to drill, back in 2008.</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill hasn’t made economic sense for at least the </em>last 20 years!<em> </em></strong></p>
<p>Matt Simmons an investment banker, considered to be a mover and shaker in<strong> </strong>the oil industry thinks he, “spent his career in the wrong kind of barrels.”</p>
<p>[From a presentation by Matt Simmons at the 2004 Offshore Technology Conference [1]]</p>
<p>It will take 16 trillion dollars to replace the production we now have on line and add to it by 2030.  Oil or another form of energy is an indispensable requisite for life as we know it.</p>
<p>But over the past 20 years, oil has been a terrible investment.  A 15% return on investment (ROI) is what one expects to get from a building.  Oil’s ROI has largely been less than 15%.  Scotch returns 50% ROI, wine returns 15%.</p>
<p>Why has oil given such a lousy return?</p>
<p>Because spot energy pricing, where oil is bought and sold like a commodity has destroyed long term value for the oil industry.  Spot markets make all contracts short term, so no one is looking out for the future.</p>
<blockquote><p>“The not-so-invisible hand of JP Morgan Chase is guilty of the ongoing intentional, not accidental, great crime of manipulating the spot markets, <em>lower</em>, not higher as you would expect. So you could, prior to 2008, ‘save money and live better’ while at the same time pollute the environment.” (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article7746.html">Silver, But No Silver Lining</a>)</p></blockquote>
<p>[End of the Matt Simmons Presentation]</p>
<p>Why has oil been a “terrible investment”?</p>
<p>Inexplicably, the industry picks the most expensive places on the earth to drill for oil.</p>
<ul>
<li>Chevron spent $2.7 billion over 10 years on just the first phase of a deep-water oil project in the Gulf. Other sub-salt discoveries involve drilling more than 30,000 feet, some of the most expensive wells ever drilled.</li>
</ul>
<p>On January 7, 2010, the Wall Street Journal published, “Cramped on Land, Big Oil Bets at Sea”</p>
<blockquote><p>“Big Oil never wanted to be here, in 4,300 feet of water far out in the Gulf of Mexico, drilling through nearly five miles of rock. It is an expensive way to look for oil.”</p></blockquote>
<p>“You really don’t need to know a lot about geology or oil to figure out something is wrong here, why don’t they go back to the old days and drill oil wells onshore?” (<em>Buy Oil Stocks… No Matter What</em>, Chris Mayer)</p>
<p><strong><em>Drill, Drill, Drill, Environmental damage is the answer</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>The <em>Environmental</em> damage and pollution to the earth from the role petroleum products play in modern society; the intentional and accidental releases into the environment, was th<em>e Goal, </em>Not The Unintended Consequence of the Petroleum Industry<em>.</em> <em></em></p></blockquote>
<p>The Powers That Be (TPTB), are in a metaphysical struggle with Mother-Earth (Gaea) and created the middle class afflicted with “The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement” (The American Dream) for the last 75 years, in order to weaken the planet with environmental damage and pollution. (<em><a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a></em>)</p>
<p>Until October 2008, the huddled “middle class” masses should have been thanking John D. Rockefeller and the Petroleum industry for letting former serfs and slaves drive cars, trucks, motorcycles and RVs to the mall so they could consume useless toxic products from the petroleum industry. (<em><a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article12261.html">Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité – Providence, Miracle or What Really Happened</a></em>)</p>
<p>But at the same time they should have been blaming them for, putting the planet, according to a massive United Nations report the GEO4, at the “unknown points of no return”</p>
<p><em>TPTB believed </em>if they gave up their real wealth: Raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, copper, silver and gold in exchange for $500 trillion of the fiat currency (Monopoly money) they created out of thin air so the middle class<em> </em>could<em> </em>live the American Dream, a nightmare for Gaea, they would attain immortality in a period known as the New World Order (Millennium).</p>
<blockquote><p>The New Heavens and the New Earth is the eternal destination and a thousand years of peace and plenty and paradise on Earth for The House of Rothschild, Global elite, Illuminati, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (righteous people).</p></blockquote>
<p>On October 29, 2008, TPTB determined their plan did not succeed: They were <em>unable</em> to defeat Gaea.</p>
<blockquote><p>Gehenna and the abyss is the eternal destination and a thousand years of punishment for The House of Rothschild, Global elite, Illuminati, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (wicked people).</p></blockquote>
<p>TPTB did not wish to spend eternity in Hell, so between October of 2008 and October 2009, they threatened Gaea with World War III. &#8220;Escalation Scenarios: The Third World War and Its Aftermath&#8221; (Pakalert) and Dr. Strangelove articles were everywhere in the media.</p>
<blockquote><p>The Book of Revelation describes the final battle with Gaea and there is no Nuclear World War III at Armageddon in the valley of Megiddo.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Therefore, the escalation scenarios were a bluff (we hope).</p>
<p>Rev 9:16 describes a hand-to-hand combat when the world ends. A Nuclear Armageddon would make too much of the planet uninhabitable for the One World governors and the 500 million “useful eaters” they need for slaves when they take over the world.</p></blockquote>
<p>Google Trends confirmed the TPTB thought the bluff was successful when the Nuclear War headlines were replaced with the Swine Flu.</p>
<blockquote><p>“President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency.” <em>Washington Post</em> (October 25, 2009)</p></blockquote>
<p>The nation’s chief health officer had the power to let hospitals move emergency rooms offsite to speed up the immunization of the masses with a shot-based on genome sequencing–a biotechnology that allows a doctor to tailor medical treatments to an individual’s genetic profile:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here for your shot?”</p>
<p>“Worried about the Bird Flu? Oh of course sit here, roll up your sleeve. Oops, sorry you died.”</p>
<p>“Well I guess it was too late for you; next time, get here sooner!”</p></blockquote>
<p>The controversial Swine Flu vaccine, many believe, was a ruse to start us on a slow and orderly road to a population of slaves (useful eaters). (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article16671.html"><em>Ominous Signs Are Aligned: Not A Particularly Good Sign</em> (11-09)</a>)</p>
<p><strong>Bluff Unsuccessful, Perpetual Check</strong></p>
<p>As of November 10, 2010 swine flu articles were replaced with headlines about drilling holes in the earth indicating the bluff &#8211; the threat of a nuclear war failed.</p>
<p>In a futile attempt to avoid going to Hell, TPTB are drilling holes in the earth hoping to find a heretofore undiscovered vulnerability in the earth’s crust:</p>
<blockquote><p>Interior secretary Salazar announced 38 lease sales for oil and gas on public lands and 75 days later President Obama signed an executive order to loan two billion dollars of our “tax payers dollars” to a Brazilian Oil Exploration Company to drill for oil off the coast of Brazil.</p></blockquote>
<p>This is a strategy known in Chess as “perpetual check”  &#8211; a sequence of checks from which the opponent (Gaea) can escape, used by a player (TPTB) with a worse position in order not to lose the game.</p>
<p><strong>The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti – Check!</strong></p>
<p>F. William Engdahl, authority on the New World Order and most of the scholars, pundits and thinkers of our time have a strongly held belief that everything wrong in the world is because someone is, greedy, corrupt or just “power hungry.”</p>
<p>F.W.  and the “experts” believe we sent 20,000 US troops to Haiti on the pretext of humanitarian aid so  “Washington and private business interests tied to it could get a geopolitical prize of the first order.”</p>
<p>F.W.  writes prolifically about the New World Order at the Center for Global Research and would probably admit the Federal Reserve fiscal policy is as much about power as about money but without a metaphysical perspective, he would not agree the environmental damage and pollution was the goal of our consumer society.</p>
<p>“The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti” is his latest article that erroneously asserts that the real reason for the US military occupation of Haiti is so we can “carve up of the vast wealth of the nation.”</p>
<p>Haitian scholar Dr. Georges Michel, wrote that the U.S. has known about the vast oil and natural gas reserves in Haiti since 1908.</p>
<p>So why are we carving up Haiti now?</p>
<p>A clue to this enigma can be found in “The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti”:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The vast oil reserves of the Persian Gulf and of the region from the Red Sea into the Gulf of Aden are at a similar convergence zone of large tectonic plates, as are such oil-rich zones as Indonesia and the waters off the coast of California.</p>
<p>In short, in terms of the physics of the earth, precisely such intersections of tectonic masses as run directly beneath Haiti have a remarkable tendency to be the sites of vast treasures of minerals, as well as oil and gas, throughout the world.” (2005, Caribbean Basins, Tectonics and Hydrocarbons” Institute for Geophysics at the University of Texas)</p></blockquote>
<p>F.W. misses the significance of “determining as precisely as possible the relation between tectonic plates” but the geologists do not:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Jan. 12 earthquake was on a fault line that passes near potential gas reserves, said Stephen Pierce, a geologist who worked in the region for 30 years. The quake may have cracked rock formations along the fault, allowing gas or oil to temporarily seep toward the surface, he said yesterday in a telephone interview.</p>
<p>A geologist, callous as it may seem, tracing that fault zone from Port-au-Prince to the border looking for gas and oil seeps, may find a structure that hasn’t been drilled,” said Pierce, exploration manager at Zion Oil &amp; Gas Inc.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The earthquake in Haiti may have exposed vulnerability (a structure that hasn’t been drilled) in the earth’s crust and TPTB are rushing to take military advantage of their opponent. [2]</p>
<p><strong>Crusextraction of the Earth, Response: Earthquakes And Tsunamis</strong></p>
<p>In 2005, world oil-production alone (not including natural-gas) was an incomprehensible 80 – 100 million barrels of oil per day.</p>
<p>USGS coastal geologists understand these factors cannot be ignored as far as influencing earth crust stresses and<em> </em>confirm the earth’s response to extracting by force 3,360,000,000 – 4,200,000,000 gallons of the planets vital fluids every single day: Earthquakes and tsunamis.</p>
<p>While disagreement abounds on this topic, scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) say that oil production at plate boundaries where hard, rocky slabs slide against each other to releases tremendous amounts of energy and could be the cause for the 2004 quake that triggered a deadly tsunami in Sumatra.</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here&#8217;s how it works: With high-tech equipment, oil companies pinpoint oil-rich areas and use large drills to puncture the surface below the sea, sometimes as deep as 10,000 feet. As this pricey fluid gets sucked from the sediment pores, the surrounding rocks shift positions to fill in the newly vacated spaces. At a large scale, for example the volume displaced when millions of barrels of oil are produced, the land movement can actually cause a mini-seismic earthquake, said Robert Morton, a USGS coastal geologist.</p>
<p>During these various stages the globe of the earth is gradually being depressurized and cooled internally, causing contraction for both of these reasons. When objects cool down, they automatically shrink/contract in size. If you let high-pressure air or gas out of a cylinder, it forms ice around the outlet, and cools the entire cylinder. If you let some of the air out of a football, or basketball, the ball shrinks and goes badly out of shape.”</p></blockquote>
<p>“Apply that to the Earth and you have earthquakes – simple common-sense – not rocket-science. A fact so simple that anyone who understands the oil-extraction process would understand, but, because they are insanely-blinded by their insatiable greed and avarice, they often overlook the obvious.” (Paul Noel, JAH, Sterling D. Allan and Mary-Sue Halliburton) [3]</p>
<p><strong>The Crusextraction </strong></p>
<p>During the various stages of the energy extraction process, the globe of the earth suffers limitless pain as the area where the drilling occurs. It is gradually being depressurized and cooled internally, causing cycles of constriction, joint-rending cramps, intermittent partial asphyxiation and searing pain as they use large drills to puncture pericardium and into the heart, sometimes as deep as 10,000 feet.</p>
<p>As the serum gets sucked from the sediment pores, the surrounding rocks shift positions to fill the newly vacated spaces causing unbearable agony as the earth automatically contracts in size and goes badly out of shape resulting in a deep crushing pain.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I Thirst.&#8221; &#8220;My strength is dried up like a potsherd; my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.&#8221;(Psalm 22:15)</p></blockquote>
<p>Then another agony begins when millions of barrels of vital bodily fluids are produced.  This causes deep, crushing pain as the sac surrounding the bowels of the earth slowly fill with hydrocarbon soil and began to compress the tectonic plates causing (shock) mini-seismic earthquakes.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint, my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.&#8221; Psalm 22:14</p></blockquote>
<p>When the loss of fluids reaches a critical level, the earth is struggling to pump heavy, thick, sluggish serum that is not only pressurized, but is also hot. As it is extracted, the tortured lungs of the earth are suffocating and are making a frantic effort to inhale small gulps of air.</p>
<p>The pressure gradually decreases, making it less profitable to take the remaining serum, but to make doubly sure of a mortal wound, the legionnaire uses external-energy to pierce and inject cold water into the sac surrounding the heart.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;They shall look on Him whom they pierced.&#8221; Psalm 22:16,17</p>
<p>&#8220;And immediately there came out blood and water.&#8221; John 19:34</p></blockquote>
<p>As the sac fills with cold water, the last remaining serum floats up on top.</p>
<p>This escape of watery fluid from the sac surrounding the heart and the wound through the sac surrounding the interior of the heart causes painful Tsunamis. This is rather conclusive evidence that the earth was tormented but not “deceased”.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p>
<p>There are only three outcomes to this galactic metaphysical struggle that goes back, at least, to the Dark Ages: (<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2010/02/17/the-question-of-questions">The Question of Questions</a>)</p>
<ol>
<li>Gaea determines man’s future.</li>
<li>TPTB determine man’s future in a new World Order where they attain immortality and rid the planet of all but 500 million useful eaters.</li>
<li>TPTP are defeated (As I claim they were October 2008) and have three choices:
<ol>
<li>The dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan (TPTB) can accept defeat and agree to be tossed into the Abyss, be locked up for a 1000 years and then thrown into the Lake of Fire.</li>
<li>Make good on a threat of total world annihilation (i.e. Nagasaki and Hiroshima) and spend a 1000 years in the 700-acre, secret subterranean city, deep within the bedrock underneath Central Park in Manhattan (Manhattan Project). This assumes Gaea allows them to launch WWIII. [4]</li>
<li>Continue to drill holes in the earth (Perpetual Check) prolonging the inevitable looking for a heretofore-undiscovered vulnerability in the Earth’s crust.</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ol>
<p>I know not what course others may take, but as for me I hope the TPTB accept defeat and are thrown into the Lake of Fire.</p>

<p>[2] Coso Springs &#8211; Check</p>
<p>Drilling holes in the earth’s crust for oil isn’t the only strategy for weakening the earth.</p>
<p>The U.S. Department of Energy has reported that just <em>one</em> geothermal location out of the hundreds that have been identified, is so powerful it has the potential to produce 50,000 times the known oil and gas reserves in the world.</p>
<p>The Naval Air Weapons Station, China Lake, sits on top of the Coso Hot Springs, one of the hottest land masses in the United States and could be vulnerability in the Earth.</p>
<p>To bring heat up to the surface they drill a hole <em>deep</em> into the Earth, tapping the area beneath the Earth&#8217;s surface that produces heat over 400 degrees. Next, they inject water into the hole. The water instantly boils and begins to produce steam that rises out of the hole.</p>
<p>[3] However, since A.D. 1900 [the dawn of the Industrial Age and our Consumer society], the growth in major earthquakes has been relentless. From 1900 to 1949 it averaged three major quakes per decade. From 1949 the increase became awesome with 9 killer quakes in the 1950&#8217;s; 13 in the 60&#8217;s; 56 in the 1970&#8217;s and an amazing 74 major quakes in the 1980&#8217;s. Finally, in the 1990&#8217;s, as [sic] the present rate, we will experience 125 major killer quakes in this decade (Source: U.S. Geological Survey Earthquake Report, Boulder, Colorado).</p>
<p>[4] Is there anything we can do to prevent total world annihilation?</p>
<p>This question was posed to Duncan O&#8217;Finioan at the September 2009, Awake and Aware Conference in Los Angeles put on Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy founders of Project Camelot.</p>
<p>Project Camelot Overview and mission statement: To provide researchers, activists and ‘whistleblowers’ with access to all forms of media in order to get the truth out. Our focus includes but is not limited to the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>extraterrestrial visitation and contact, time travel, mind control, classified advanced technology, free energy, possible coming earth changes, revealing plans that exist to control the human race.</li>
</ul>
<p>Project Camelot is clearly a disinformation project, <em>however</em> there is information in disinformation.</p>
<p>Duncan O&#8217;Finioan was a featured speaker at the September conference.</p>
<p>Duncan, allegedly, is a refugee from a US military program that trained super soldiers, with psychic abilities and uncommon strength –and skilled in psychotronics, that is: mind control.</p>
<p>[Excerpt from “We Are No Mind Control Experiment”] Kerry Cassidy</p>
<p>After Duncan tells you to avoid anything with the word Project on the front, (4:57, <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2197572">http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2197572</a>) he responds to a question from an attendee in the audience about the Illuminati.</p>
<p>Duncan: Find a teacher someone who is a true white lighter, work with them let em teach you.</p>
<p>Attendee: And the possible solution if we can send white light, energy and love, call it prayer, call it what you will. To…you know, it’s a radical idea, but to the Illuminati or the leaders out there, so that they can help to understand really what they are doing. And so they will have more love and actually change their mind to prevent unleashing such a super soldier force. As well as helping to shield them in the same energies that are shielding you so that the negative energies that are around them will not be able to be around them.</p>
<p>Duncan: You raise an excellent point, however the Illuminati know exactly what they are doing. What you are saying has merit and possibly has a chance…</p>
<p>Then Kerry Cassidy takes over the stage and delivers the following speech:</p>
<p>Kerry: OK I want I want to say something here, what we are talking about is awareness. OK, being awake and being aware knowing OK, becoming aware just the act of learning and becoming aware just what we are doing right here, this creates the power. OK, its not enough to just send blind light blind love. OK, it must be intelligent it must have perception attached you must do more than just give the heart. OK, you must understand what you are seeing and why you are doing what you are doing that’s so knowing, and putting that piece together that that’s  the missing piece. OK, and then, it’s awareness. OK, what you want to convey is the awareness of all the aspects of what’s going on there. OK, so if you are loving, you are loving consciously knowing all the parameters of what that means, not blindly OK, so don’t give your energy blindly. If you know if you want to give your energy… and power and light and love to the Illuminati, know what you are doing, be conscious while you are doing it.</p>
<p>[Review the ustream video below and confirm Kerry’s use of the word OK is a mind control trigger. <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2335499">Bill &amp; Kerry - General Discussion</a>]</p>
<p>Kerry: “If you want to give your energy… and power and light and love to the Illuminati”, to stop the Illuminati from unleashing total world annihilation, “know what you are doing, be conscious while you are doing it.”</p>

<p>“There are now well over 150 million Americans who feel stress over these things on a consistent basis. Over 60 percent of Americans now live paycheck to paycheck.”  (<a href="http://dissidentvoice.org/2010/02/the-economic-elite-vs-the-people-of-the-united-states-of-america-part-i/">The Economic Elite vs. People of the USA</a>, David DeGraw)</p>
<p>In an effort to explain our escalating financial crisis, the American Nightmare (an Environmental Dream), the “experts” are under the erroneous impression that the Fed &#8220;missed&#8221; the warning signs leading up to the October 2008 meltdown.</p>
<p>The pundits are focusing their angst on the 44th POTUS, who might very well go down as the single most inept president in all of American history. (<a href="http://www.commondreams.org/view/2010/01/22-7">How to Squander the Presidency in One Year</a>, David Michael Green)</p>
<p>Barack Obama is not inept, greedy or stupid and he isn’t one of  “us.”</p>
<p>He rose from obscurity to power with his top economics adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the co-founder of David Rockefeller&#8217;s Trilateral Commission and he travels in the same circles as other members of the super-secret Skull &amp; Bones Society at Yale University, who pretend to be running for president every four years.</p>
<p>The decision to have Obama preside over the greatest financial calamity since the Great Depression was made five years ago; the November election was a formality. (<a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Why-Joseph-Biden-will-be-t-by-Robert-Singer-081009-755.html">Why Joseph Biden will be the Next Vice President of the United States</a>)</p>
<p>To believe otherwise, is to ignore the Bradley/Palin effect and the decision by John McCain to wait until his concession speech to shed the image of a nasty &#8220;grumpy old man.&#8221;</p>
<p>In September 2008, when the Obama campaign seemed to be slumping and their candidate&#8217;s long-standing lead in the polls had evaporated, the senator&#8217;s supporters openly worried that a potential victory might be slipping away. Then, providence joined the campaign: The failure of the giant investment bank Lehman Brothers followed by a global financial meltdown in the month of October.</p>
<p><strong>“Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.”   John F. Kennedy</strong></p>
<p>And, “speaking of change”, the escalation of the war in Afghanistan and Iraq and his policies on Guantanamo, state secrets, renditions, executive power, bailouts and the stimulus packages are for the most part identical to those of George W. Bush.</p>
<p>However, the policies at the Federal Reserve have changed inexplicably, monumentally and historically:</p>
<p>As of October 2008, the men behind the Federal Reserve, all connected to the House of Rothschild, are no longer giving up what’s left of their real wealth so the middle class can live the American Dream, a nightmare for the planet.</p>
<p>Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy, in his first government position, shuffles back and forth from the West Wing to the Treasury Department (Federal Reserve) rewriting the rules of American “capitalism” as he dismantles the US Housing, Automobile Industry and the American Dream. (The 31-Year-Old in Charge of Dismantling G.M., David E. Sanger)</p>
<p>Deese’s First Rule: Withdraw Credit and Liquidity:</p>
<p>Causing spending to fall even further, forcing companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating even more unemployment…263,000 jobs eliminated bringing the total to 39 million Americans who are no longer working or looking for work. (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14115.html">The September Employment Rate is 90%</a>)</p>
<p>And that’s before the recently announced “planned three-year budget freeze on government discretionary spending.”</p>
<p><strong>Capitalism never made sense</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>“The Fed didn’t miss anything; the October meltdown was an inside job”</p></blockquote>
<p>Professor Ebeling, the Ludwig von Mises professor of Economics at Hillsdale College, understood something was wrong when he wrote, &#8220;The perverse development and evolution of historical capitalism, the institutions necessary for a truly free-market economy have been either undermined or prevented from emerging.&#8221;</p>
<p>But when he claimed, &#8220;It is the principles and the meaning of a free-market economy that must be rediscovered&#8221; in order to overcome the burden of historical capitalism and save liberty, he should have written that principles must be rediscovered in order to prevent the planet from attempted murder (ecocide).</p>
<p>American &#8220;capitalism&#8221; and our consumer economy never made economic, environmental or common sense—unless the goal was ecocide.</p>
<p>Capitalism and a not-so-free market economy based on consumer products, that is, products we are manipulated to want, not need, was never sustainable. Consumers consume…the resources of the planet.</p>
<p><strong>Who is Responsible?</strong></p>
<p>The “experts” are under the impression this is the natural order of things.</p>
<p>Allegedly, this is another “example” of the private credit monopoly of rich and predatory moneylenders that “prey upon the people of the United States” for the benefit of themselves. [1]</p>
<blockquote><p>“For the benefit of the middle class is a more accurate statement.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The people responsible for the October collapse, our Federal Reserve, also get credit for the windfalls of “Monopoly Money”, created out of thin air, which financed our consumer society.</p>
<p>Those predatory moneylenders gave the middle class the highest standard of living in the world.</p>
<p>Recall when the American economy appeared headed into a recession at the end of the dot-com bubble, the Federal Reserve began slashing short- term interest rates until they reached a historically low one percent. The move re-inflated the economy by allowing homeowners to extract $750 billion in equity from their homes—up from $106 billion in 1996—and apply the dollars toward a multitude of consumer items and other credit card debt.</p>
<p>As interest rates plummeted and alleged home equity artificially soared, buyers were able to afford first and second homes, and they did it by taking out risky mortgages with &#8220;teaser rates&#8221; similar to those offered by the credit card industry. Even as interest rates adjusted upward, the sponsoring banks used complicated financial derivatives to resell the risky mortgages as &#8220;asset-backed paper.&#8221;</p>
<p>As housing prices edged downward and mortgage rates inched upward, the recession was put on hold with the help of an astonishing 10 to 12 credit card offers per month being delivered to some consumer mailboxes. The credit card companies issued 1.5 billion cards to 158 million cardholders and promised an improbable zero percent interest—some deals for up to 18 months. (Similar to mortgage debt, the credit card debt is put into pools also known as derivatives that are then resold to investment houses, other banks and institutional investors.)</p>
<p>Thank those rich and predatory moneylenders for the short-term interest rates and the liquidity that allowed the debt to be pooled, sold and resold.</p>
<p>But blame them because our hyper-shopping has wreaked havoc on the planet.</p>
<p><strong>Who is Behind the Federal Reserve?</strong></p>
<p>Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan—all connected to The Global Financial Elite (TGFE), direct the Federal Reserve to create money out of thin air.</p>
<p>The process that the Federal Reserve, or any bank, uses to create money “consists of making an entry in a book, that is all,” said Graham Towers, governor of the Bank of Canada. “Each and every time a bank makes a loan (a debt) . . . new bank credit is created—brand new money.”</p>
<p>Money used to pay for the Industrial Revolution, orchestrate the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s, the dot-com and the housing market bubbles, resulted in 60 years of unprecedented prosperity for the middle class.</p>
<p>These scoundrels at the beginning of the 20th century, owned or controlled one-sixth of the world’s real wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold.</p>
<p>So how do they get rich exchanging real wealth for about $500 trillion of the Monopoly money they printed?</p>
<p>They don’t, they are the losers, not the middle class!</p>
<p>Remember those trees we chopped down so just about anyone in America could afford their dream house, or those mountains we blew up so we could have that fat station wagon in our driveway? All of those resources “now used up”, were once owned or controlled by the robber barons of our history books.</p>
<p>Their real wealth, not yours or mine has been &#8220;cut, mined and hauled away so Americans could trash the planet with houses, second houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs— the cheap stuff we associate with the good life that put the planet on the downward spiral to ecocide. (<a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Dem-Bones-is-Connected-To-by-Robert-Singer-090121-759.html">Dem Bones is Connected To De Debt Bone</a>)</p>
<p>The middle class should be thanking those scoundrels for all that &#8220;stuff&#8221;—but blame them for conning us into trashing the planet.</p>
<p><strong>The Story of Stuff</strong></p>
<p>The Story of Stuff, an animated video about the underside of our consumer society, believes the scoundrels are a bloated corporation sporting a top hat with a dollar sign etched on its front.</p>
<p>Film narrator, Annie Leonard argues our environmental damage is the result of the greedy corporations externalizing costs (shift them onto the public and the environment) so they can make more money.</p>
<p>But that premise is contradicted on film when Annie stands in line to buy a radio for $4.99 and correctly realizes the price couldn’t possibly capture the cost of the radio but incorrectly concludes that the greedy corporations pollute the environment so they can make more profit. [2]</p>
<p>If profits were the motive, then why wasn’t the radio $5.99?  A price anyone would consider a &#8220;throw away&#8221; or loss leader.</p>
<p>We have come to believe that everything wrong in America is about someone getting rich while we are getting swindled.</p>
<p>That our economy runs on profits is a true statement, but imagine how much those moneygrubbers would have made if the radio was $5.99.</p>
<p>That $1.00 would be 100% pure profit.</p>
<p>The swindlers and scoundrels downward-manipulate the costs of what was in 1910 their real wealth:</p>
<blockquote><p>Raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold, to industry at prices lower, <em>not</em> higher as you would expect, so the corporations can still make a profit selling you a radio for $4.99.</p></blockquote>
<p>Downward manipulation is an uneconomic aberration discovered in the precious metals market by the noted silver analyst Ted Butler.</p>
<p>We are conditioned to believe that prices are always inflated so the greedy corporations can make more money but Ted Butler’s research confirmed the price of silver has been manipulated to stay at the $4-5 price range for years. The beneficiaries of this type of manipulation are the consumers since industrial users can sell their products cheaply and still make a profit. (<a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Myth-of-Free-Enterpr-by-Robert-Singer-100225-556.html">The Myth of the &#8220;Free&#8221; Enterprise Economic System</a>)</p>
<blockquote><p>Behind every consumer society is the reality of a credit-based monetary system and a fiat currency.   Behind every fiat currency is a Federal Reserve or a Central Bank controlled by The Global Financial Elite including, Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and J.P. Morgan, Ted Butler’s prime suspect in the “ongoing intentional not accidental” great crime of keeping the price of silver low so consumers can buy a lot more ‘radio’ (silver) for their dollar.” (<em><a href="http://news.silverseek.com/TedButler/1226344970.php">The Real Story</a></em>, Theodore Butler, <em><a href="http://www.opednews.com/articles/Silver-but-no-Silver-Lini-by-Robert-Singer-081212-594.html">Silver But No Silver Lining</a>)</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Annie should be asking herself why those scoundrels intentionally sold their raw materials cheaply so just about everyone could afford the American Dream, a nightmare for the Planet.</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Results in Cognitive Dissonance</strong></p>
<p>The premise that anyone would intentionally damage the planet, which future generations will inherit, results in Cognitive Dissonance (CD). CD is the discomfort felt at the discrepancy between what you already know or believe, and new information or interpretation that contradicts a strongly held belief system.</p>
<p>But what if the attempted murder of the environment was the goal from the beginning and not the unintended consequence?</p>
<p>Then we were &#8220;conned&#8221; into shopping for stuff to intentionally because The Global Financial Elite are in a metaphysical war with mother-earth (Gaea) and hope to attain immortality in the New World Order. [3]</p>
<p>Now the world around you will finally make sense.</p>
<p>Hot, flat, and crowded Thomas L. Friedman will finally know what planet George W. Bush is on.</p>
<p>Bush lost the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq, but is winning the war waged on the environment.</p>
<p>Dubya was deadly serious about Ecocide when, after rejecting the global climate change targets of the July 2008 G8 summit, he said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221; China is now the world’s biggest polluter, <a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article8911.html">Meat, Milk and Motors: The New China Syndrome </a></p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Eliminates the Stupid Explanations</strong></p>
<p>We see the collapse of GM and Chrysler as the result of failed public policy, government action, inaction and conclude the leadership is inept, arrogant or just &#8220;stupid&#8221; because only Ecocide could explain an industry that failed to keep up with the competition and adjust to new market demands.</p>
<p>Did Detroit forget the Volkswagen Beetle was the most successful car in history?</p>
<p>An incredible 21,529,464 Beetles were produced with the same body style and the same taillight (<a href="http://www.cartype.com/pages/272/worlds_5_most_successful_cars">World&#8217;s 5 Most Successful Cars</a>).</p>
<p>The policies and decisions for the last 31 years aren’t inept or stupid if the goal was pollution.</p>
<p>The Beetle as a mobile pollution device was a failure. Its effects on the environment were minimal compared to the Detroit lineup of egocentric gas-guzzlers, all designed with a different taillight and eco-unfriendly accessories.</p>
<p>The “Evil” Federal Reserve made sure that shiny new automobile with the V8 engine, chrome wheels and bumpers was so cheap just about everyone in America could afford the mobile pollution device of their dreams.</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Explains Why Alaska is in the Picture</strong></p>
<p>Most analysts point to the oil shock of the mid-1970s, set off by the Arab oil embargo of 1973 as the turning point for the US economy and automobile industry.</p>
<p>Why didn’t our then-President Richard Nixon and the rest of the U.S. government promote mass transit, renewable energy, and high-mileage vehicles?</p>
<p>Because the objective that makes the most sense was to disturb 800 miles of the most pristine country in Alaska with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline.</p>
<p>In 2008 we had a similar shock when $4.50 a gallon gasoline convinced Americans they should give up their last Arctic wilderness (<a href="http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article10594.html">U.S. Economy in Free Fall, Why is the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve in this picture?</a>).</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Explains why Electricity is so Cheap </strong></p>
<p>Electricity radically transformed and expanded our energy use. To a large extent, electricity defines modern technological civilization and made the Industrial Revolution and therefore our consumer society possible.</p>
<p>Electric power arrived barely a hundred years ago, but high costs and the Great Depression dried up most investment capital and delayed electric service to rural Americans until President Franklin Roosevelt signed into law the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) in 1935.</p>
<p>The REA loaned money created by the Federal Reserve at low interest rates and helped to set up electricity cooperatives.</p>
<p>Historically, energy is priced below its actual environmental and social cost in order to create excessive demand and discourage conservation. In other words such pricing diminishes the value of energy to users and causes them to use it irresponsibly and increase the amount of pollution coal-fired plants generate.</p>
<p>Why is electricity priced so cheap that &#8220;only the rich can afford to burn candles&#8221;?</p>
<p>Because cleaner alternatives like wind, solar or even natural gas don’t require mining companies to use dynamite to blast away 800 to 1,000 feet of 500 mountaintops and bury over 1200 miles of rivers and streams. [4]</p>
<p>Ecocide explains why 54% of electricity comes from the most abundant raw energy, coal and is the dirtiest source of power for much of the world. Coal-fired plants harm wildlife, generate smog, soot, acid rain, global warming, toxic air emissions and require billions of gallons of our most precious resource—water.</p>
<p><strong>He Ruined the Country</strong></p>
<p>The private credit monopoly of rich and predatory moneylenders do not “prey upon the middle class” to get rich.</p>
<p>You don’t become wealthier by exchanging gold, silver and raw materials for about $500 trillion of the Monopoly money you print.</p>
<p>Moneylenders created the middle class and then conned us into trashing the planet because Ecocide was the goal not the unintended consequence.</p>
<p>American &#8220;capitalism&#8221; and our consumer economy make perfect sense if the goal was the attempted murder of the planet.</p>
<p>Maybe ecocide is what Woodrow Wilson meant when he confessed that he &#8220;ruined the country.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In an effort to explain our escalating financial crisis, an American Nightmare (an Environmental Dream), the pundits are focusing their angst on the 44<sup>th </sup>POTUS, who might very well go down as the single most inept president in all of American history. (<em>How to Squander the Presidency in One Year</em>, David Michael Green)</p>
<p>Barack Obama is not inept, greedy or stupid and he isn’t one of  “us”.</p>
<p>He rose from obscurity to power with his top economics adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the co-founder of David Rockefeller&#8217;s Trilateral Commission and he travels in the same circles as other members of the super-secret Skull &amp; Bones Society at Yale University, who pretend to be running for president every four years.</p>
<p>The decision to have Obama preside over the greatest financial calamity since the Great Depression was made five years ago; the November election was a formality. (<em>Why Joseph Biden will be the Next Vice President of the United States</em>)</p>
<p>To believe otherwise, is to ignore the Bradley/Palin effect and the decision by John McCain to wait until his concession speech to shed the image of a nasty &#8220;grumpy old man.&#8221;</p>
<p>In September 2008, when the Obama campaign seemed to be slumping and their candidate&#8217;s long-standing lead in the polls had evaporated, the senator&#8217;s supporters openly worried that a potential victory might be slipping away. Then, providence joined the campaign: the failure of the giant investment bank Lehman Brothers followed by a global financial meltdown in the month of <em>October.</em></p>
<p>And, “speaking of change”, escalating the war in Afghanistan and Iraq and his policies on Guantanamo, state secrets, renditions, executive power, bail-outs and the stimulus packages are for the most part identical to those of George W. Bush.</p>
<p>However, the policies at the Federal Reserve have changed…inexplicably, monumentally and historically:</p>
<blockquote><p>As of October 2008, the men behind the Federal Reserve, all connected to the House of Rothschild, are no longer giving up what’s left of their real wealth so the middle class can live the American Dream, a nightmare for the planet.</p></blockquote>
<p>Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy, in his first government position, shuffles back and forth from the West Wing to the Treasury Department rewriting the rules of American “capitalism” as he dismantles the US Housing, Automobile Industry and the American Dream. (<em>The 31-Year-Old in Charge of Dismantling G.M.</em>, David E. Sanger)</p>
<p>Deese’s First Rule: Withdraw Credit and Liquidity:</p>
<blockquote><p>Causing spending to fall even further, forcing companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating even more unemployment…263,000 jobs eliminated bringing the total to 39 million Americans who are no longer working or looking for work. (<em>The September Employment Rate is 90%</em>)</p></blockquote>
<p>And that’s before the recently announced “planned three-year budget freeze on government discretionary spending.”</p>
<p><strong>The Federal Reserve Act of 1913</strong></p>
<p>One of the most important domestic acts in the nation’s history took the power to create money from the people and gave it to the robber barons of our filtered history books in<em> theory for profit</em>.</p>
<p>The Federal Reserve was instrumental in the development of America into a world power.</p>
<p>The United States, in its first decades, was a land of small farms and nearby towns with few cities of any consequence. The young nation seemed far more interested in becoming a successful experiment in democracy, rather than an economic power.</p>
<p>A central bank, necessary for a consumer society, large cities, a common medium of exchange, and a mechanism to regulate that medium were greeted with hostility, since many of the nation’s leaders disdained the urban life.</p>
<p>Anyone who spoke against the “Creature from Jekyll Island” by G. Edward Griffin was silenced.</p>
<p>Presidents Garfield and McKinley, outspoken champions of “sound” money and opponents of a central bank, were suspiciously silenced permanently.</p>
<p>The conflict between rural values and urban reality ended when Woodrow Wilson “unwittingly ruined his country” and signed into law the legislation that put “the growth of the nation . . . and all our activities in the hands of a few scoundrels (men).”</p>
<blockquote><p>Once those scoundrels got control of the supply of money in the Franklin Roosevelt Administration, they began to buy government securities at the rate of ten million dollars a week for 10 weeks, and created one hundred million dollars in new (checkbook) currency, which alleviated the critical famine of money and credit, and the factories started hiring people again.&#8221; (<em>Secrets of the Federal Reserve</em>, Eustace Mullins)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Now those scoundrels remain in control of the supply of money in the Barack Obama Administration, they are making generous interest payments to the banks for “parking” their TARP and other government taxpayer bailout money, which is aggravating the critical famine of money and credit, and the factories started laying people off (263,000 people in September bringing the total to 39 million Americans who are no longer working or looking for work).</p></blockquote>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that found its way into the history books and the writings of economic experts, is that somehow these Robinhood barons (swindlers and scoundrels of history) were made wealthier by manipulating the Monopoly money they created out of “thin air” used to “alleviated the critical famine of money and credit” so the factories could start hiring people again and finance our consumer society.</p>
<p>In 1910, the men behind the Federal Reserve Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan, all connected to the Rothschild’s global financial empire, owned or controlled one-sixth of the world’s <em>real</em> wealth—gold, silver and raw materials—not the fiat currency we call money.</p>
<p>And their real wealth, where is it now?</p>
<p>Used up, as in consumed, by the middle class so former members of the Third Estate (serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs—the affordable things we take for granted which put the planet, according to the<em>GEO4, </em>a massive United Nations Report, at the<em> “unknown points of no return.” <span style="font-style: normal"><em>(Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité – Providence, Miracle or What Really Happened</em>)</span></em></p>
<p>The swindler’s and scoundrel’s wealth, not yours or mine, was eventually “cut, mined and hauled away,” so that Americans could “trash the planet” with that cheap stuff until October 2008.</p>
<p>Money control, Gustav Stolper wrote in “This Age of Fables” is, “the supreme and most comprehensive of all governmental controls and the 1838 quote:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws&#8221; (Incorrectly attributed to Mayer Amschel Rothschild who died in 1812).</p></blockquote>
<p>Reflects the &#8220;maxim&#8221; of the House of Rothschild.</p>
<p>However, &#8220;money lenders of the Old World” cannot be talking about profits unless you believe The Rothschilds didn’t understand that they were about to give up $500 trillion of <em>real</em> wealth in exchange for $500 trillion pieces of worthless fiat currency.</p>
<p>During the last 100 years, those swindlers and scoundrels were able to distort the structure of relative prices; generate misallocations of labor and capital throughout the economy; rationalize new governmental interventions in the face of the market &#8220;instability&#8221; manipulate the patterns of and the profits from international trade which resulted in the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970s, the dot-com and the housing market bubbles and unprecedented prosperity for the middle class.</p>
<p>Would we have a financial crisis to go with our environmental crisis if Wilson hadn’t ruined the country when he gave away the people’s right to print their own money and we had our own bank?</p>
<p>No.</p>
<p>North Dakota is the only state in the union to own its own bank. The Bank of North Dakota (BND) was established by the state legislature in 1919 specifically to free farmers and small businessmen from the clutches of out-of-state bankers and railroad men.</p>
<p>The state of North Dakota, one of only two states (along with Montana) expected to meet its budget in 2010. North Dakota was also the only state to actually gain jobs in 2009 while other states were losing them. Since 2000, North Dakota’s GNP has grown 56 percent, personal income has grown 43 percent and wages have grown 34 percent. North Dakota in 2009, had a budget surplus of $1.3 billion, the largest it ever had – in a state with a population of 700,000. (<em>The North Dakota Model for Capitalizing Community Banks, </em>Ellen Brown)</p>
<p>North Dakota, a land of small farms and towns more interested in remaining a successful experiment in democracy rather than an economic power.</p>
<p>At this point, it is advantageous to consider the efforts of writer Andrew Hitchcock:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Rothschilds have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives, and are the hidden hand behind all the social cataclysms in history: The French and American Revolution, the Civil War, World Wars, the Industrial Revolution, the Federal Reserve (and our consumer society).”</p></blockquote>
<p>John Sherman, a Rothschild protégé in a letter sent to New York bankers on June 25, 1863 in support of the then proposed National Banking Act, wrote:</p>
<blockquote><p>“The few who understand the system, will either be so interested in its profits, or so dependent on its favors that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantages&#8230;will bear its burden without complaint, and perhaps without suspecting that the system is inimical to their best interests.” <em>(World War II And Pound, 1940-1945: The Anti-Semite Revealed</em>, Ellen Cardona)</p></blockquote>
<p>In other words, the “few that understand the system”, without a 20th century environmental perspective of the middle class “trashing the planet”, would not be capable of comprehending a system that would put the planet at the “unknown points of no return” because the environmental damage and pollution was the goal and not the unintended consequences of the Industrial Revolution and our consumer society.</p>
<p>The Federal Reserve isn’t evil because they print our money and make us pay interest on it; they are evil because they are in a metaphysical war with mother-earth (Gaea).</p>
<p>October 2008 marked the last day the “lender of last resort” would give up what’s left of their real wealth, used to con us into shopping for useless toxic stuff, to weaken their opponent, mother-earth. (<em>Ominous Signs Are Aligned: Not A Particularly Good Sign (11-09)</em>)</p>

<p>Can Jared Diamond’s “Geographic Determinism” answer &#8220;Yali&#8217;s &#8216;Cargo&#8217; Question&#8221;: Why &#8220;they&#8221; are so rich and &#8220;we&#8221; are so poor?<em> </em></p>
<p>Geographic Determinism: The shape and location of continents, flora, fauna, microbes, water, climate, topography determine history: Civilizations benefit because human populations with an east-west orientation (east-west) have a more consistent climate than those with a north-south orientation (<em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393061310?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=disinformation&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=0393061310">Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies</a>,</em> Jared M. Diamond).</p>
<p>No, it cannot.</p>
<blockquote><p>Civilizations benefit because <em>God and the House of Rothschild so loved the world, that he gave his only</em> begotten <em>Son to the human populations with an east</em>-west orientation, that whosoever believeth in him shall not have to obey the laws of nature.</p>
<p>Original sin entered the world when man went from trying to survive, to trying to justify his existence. &#8220;<strong>Cogito, ergo sum</strong>&#8220;, less ambiguously translated: “I am thinking, therefore I exist&#8221;, which is the foundation of Western philosophy.</p></blockquote>
<p>Societies of civilized savages began when hunters and gatherers started farming and discovered toilet paper.</p>
<p>Hunters and gatherers are unable to upset the ecological structures of the planet because they obey the laws of nature.</p>
<p><strong>Agrarian Economies and Hemp</strong></p>
<p>The first civilized societies and their agrarian economies had an environmental impact, but the damage was negligible because:</p>
<ol>
<li>They practiced sustainable farming</li>
<li>The population had not reached carrying capacity</li>
<li>It was against the law <em>not</em> to grow HEMP</li>
</ol>
<p>The eco-friendliest plant in all of history was so important that King Henry VIII in 1535 and Queen Elizabeth in 1563 signed into law that every landowner must grow hemp.</p>
<p>In colonial America, you could be jailed for refusing to grow hemp (<em>Hemp in Colonial Virginia</em>, G. M. Herdon).</p>
<p>Hemp was a major crop until the 1920s, supplying the world with its main supply of food and fiber (80% of clothing was made from Hemp). Natural biomass from hemp could provide the planet energy and reduce our dependence on foreign oil (<em>Major Crop Chronology of Hemp throughout history</em>).</p>
<p><strong>The Textile Industry “Suddenly” Discovers Cotton</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>In the early 20th century, historians (such as Charles Beard) looking for the social forces they thought controlled history, emphasized industrialization and urbanization.</p>
<p>These were forces unleashed by the Industrial Revolution and the <em>textile industry</em>. By the mid 20th century, attention turned to the broader concept of &#8220;modernization,&#8221; which included industrialization, urbanization, psychological changes and changes in values. Eric Hobsbawm called &#8220;modernization” (Consumerism), &#8220;probably the most important event in human history” (Hobsbawm 1988, p. 46 <em>Industrial Revolution</em>, Berg and Hudson, (1992)).</p>
<blockquote><p>“The Cotton Manufacture of England (and subsequently, America) presents a spectacle unparalleled in the annals of industry, whether we regard the suddenness of its growth, the magnitude which it has attained, or the disaster to the environment the “wonderful inventions” to which its progress is to be ascribed.</p>
<p>Cotton in the 1700’s was rare: Whilst the writers of antiquity, both sacred and profane, abound in allusions to clothing made of wool, flax and hemp, there are scarcely a dozen sentences to be found in the whole body of Greek and Latin literature, and not one in Hebrew, referring to cotton.” (<em>The Cotton Manufacture</em>,  Baaxitea by Jos Writftii, R.A)</p></blockquote>
<p>Cotton, heavily dependent on fossil fuels and pesticides, allows us to wear the latest fashions while drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes at Starbucks pondering if an SUV or station wagon will make us look <em>fat</em> or if an SUV is a <em>fat</em> station wagon.</p>
<p>The birth of the textile industry marked the last time Earth would be in ecological balance because the Rothschilds convinced the textile industry that we should wear clothes made out of the one plant that does more damage to the environment than coffee or tobacco…Cotton (<em>Cotton Industry Running Down Myths And Misinformation</em>, By Elton Robinson).</p>
<p><strong>Environmental Damage Was the Goal</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>The world turned when the secret societies (The Powers That Be, TPTB), beginning with the Knights Templar armed with the lost knowledge of the ancient world Atlantis, embarked (not so secretly) on a plan to use humans to weaken the earth with environmental damage and pollution. [1]</p>
<blockquote><p>“According to the Egyptian priests that Plato&#8217;s informant had spoken with, Atlantis had a prosperous and sophisticated civilization before its demise. Advanced in science, it was also in possession of knowledge concerning both the geography and geomancy of the entire earth. Geomancy is the discovery and mapping of power places on either regional or global scales.” [2]</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>East-West Civilization Pivoted at the Dark Ages</strong></p>
<p>Until the Dark Ages, the populations of “savages” believed they were only a small part of the whole circle of life and that each part of creation played a significant role in the contentment and survival of the other.</p>
<p>American Indians, also known as the People of the Land, traditionally and historically believed, humans were created to be caretakers of the garden &#8212; Mother Earth.  They held all things of creation sacred and respected Nature.</p>
<ul>
<li>Never take more than we need;</li>
<li>Thank Creator for what we have or what we will receive;</li>
<li>Use all of what we have;</li>
<li>Give away what we do not need.</li>
</ul>
<p>American Indians held a special knowledge of the land and its inhabitants. They held a collective. That is until God gave us permission to slaughtered them and the animals because they didn’t believe in Jesus Christ.</p>
<p>In the name of Jesus Christ, native peoples were slaughtered along with the animals because they didn’t believe in the Son of God and therefore could not have a soul.</p>
<p>Christianity spread the belief that humans were now the greatest and most important part of creation and because the environment exists to serve man we should use our opposing thumb to (technology) to make the earth conform to us.</p>
<p><strong>Enter the Middle Class</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Ancient knowledge allowed the Knights Templar (and their successors, the Illuminati) to see a future where consumerism would weaken Mother-Earth (Gaea) and went east-west (Europe) in search of a middle class.</p>
<p>The House of Rothschild, with or without ancient knowledge, knew better than to head north-south because the populations were <strong>not</strong> oriented around their lot “in this life” and had a Varna “Caste” in stone.</p>
<p>Unlike feudal society people in each Varna were born into his/her class and could not move up the class hierarchy. Feudal society had no restrictions (http://www.hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/h_caste.asp).</p>
<p>Consumerism is anti-thetical to the Caste System.  Consumerism requires a focus on pleasure and a conviction that it is right to seek the satisfaction of selfish desires in this life. The Caste system has a focus on life the next time around.</p>
<p>East-west feudal society had consumers in the “Third Estate”, but first they would need to be “enlightened” with a philosophy and movement based on respect for the dignity of man, concern for his welfare, and the creation of favorable conditions for a just, social “middle class” life.</p>
<p>At the beginning of the French Revolution, kings, monarchs and the despots of our history books held supreme power. By the time it ended, the human rights movement replaced centuries of tyranny and oppression for the common man (<em>The History of the House of Rothschild</em> by Andrew Hitchcock, <em>The Establishment</em> By Ted Lang).</p>
<p>Roger Chartier writes in <em>The Cultural Origins of The French Revolution</em>, the popular notion that the Enlightenment caused the Revolution makes the mistake of <em>post hoc ergo propter hoc</em> &#8211; &#8220;after the fact, therefore because of the fact.&#8221;</p>
<p>Thus, Chartier and other historians without a 20<sup>th</sup> century environmental perspective of the middle class “trashing the planet” could not understand why the despots use their Guillotine and dispense with such heretical movement.</p>
<p>Once the “Third Estate” (97% of the east-west population) was liberated they went on to become consumers and then after World War II, hyper-consumers.</p>
<p>Thank those kings, monarchs and the despots for not cutting off our heads, but blame them for the environmental damage and pollution, the forces of &#8220;modernization” and our consumer society, according to a massive United Nations report the GEO4, threatens the planet with Ecocide.</p>
<p>The GEO4 reports humanity is at serious risk due to “the dangers of climate change, water scarcity, dwindling fish stocks and the pressures on the land and the extinction of species” and finds the planet in “dire environmental straits because humanity’s footprint [its environmental demand] is 21.9 hectares per person while the Earth’s biological capacity is, on average, only 15.7 ha/person.”</p>
<p>The report gives details on past trends and future prospects on the atmosphere, pollution, food, biodiversity, water and inequality in the world and the picture is grim.</p>
<p><em>Have we, according to the GEO4, probably passed the “unknown points of no return”</em> because corporations pass the costs of producing a product to third parties so they can make more profits? (<em>Corporations Rule the World</em>, David Korten).</p>
<p>The Story of Stuff, an animated video about the underside of our consumer society refutes a theory that profits are why we are at the <em>“unknown points of no return”</em>.</p>
<p>Film narrator, Annie Leonard, argues our environmental damage and pollution is the result of the corporations externalizing the costs (shift them onto the public and the environment) so they can make more money.</p>
<p>But that premise is contradicted on film when Annie stands in line to buy a radio for $4.99 and correctly realizes the price couldn’t possibly capture the cost of the radio but <em>incorrectly </em>concludes that the greedy corporations pollute the environment so they can make more profit.</p>
<p>If profits were the motive, then why wasn’t the radio $5.99?  A price anyone would consider a &#8220;throw away&#8221; or loss leader.</p>
<p>We have come to believe that everything wrong in America is about someone getting rich while we are getting swindled.</p>
<p>That our economy runs on profits is a true statement, but imagine how much those “bloated corporations sporting a top hat with a dollar sign etched on its front” would have made if the radio was $5.99.</p>
<p>That $1.00 would be 100% pure profit.</p>
<p>A not so-invisible-hand downward manipulates the costs that is, they manipulate the prices lower, not higher as you would expect, so the corporations can still make a profit selling you a radio for $4.99. [3]</p>
<p><em>Have we, passed the “unknown points of no return”</em> because we “choose to fail”?</p>
<p>In his books Guns Germs and Steel and Collapse, Jared Diamond, like the scholars and thinkers of our time think we passed the “<em>unknown points of no return”</em> because they believe the failed public policies, government actions and inactions to protect the environment are the result of a leadership that is inept, arrogant or just “stupid” [when they "choose to fail”] (Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed, Jared Diamond).</p>
<p>Hot, flat, and crowded Thomas L. Friedman thinks Bush is “stupid” when he writes, what are they thinking what are they doing … “what planet is George W. Bush is on?</p>
<p><em>Or, have we have passed the “unknown points of no return”</em> because the environmental damage and pollution was the goal and not the unintended consequences of the Industrial Revolution?</p>
<p>At this point, it is advantageous to consider the efforts of writer Andrew Hitchcock:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Rothschilds have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives, and are the hidden hand behind all the social cataclysms in history: The French and American Revolution, the Civil War, World Wars, the Industrial Revolution, the Federal Reserve (and our consumer society).”</p></blockquote>
<p>Rothschild policies include “total ruthlessness” and as Frederic Morton writes in the Preface to Hitchcock’s <em>The History of the House of Rothschild</em>,  “For the last one hundred and fifty years, the history of the House of Rothschild has been to an amazing degree the backstage history of Western Europe&#8230;. The overwhelming success of the Rothschild’s lay in their willingness to do what had to be done.”</p>
<p>The historical research by Toqueville, Chartier and Hitchcock, if examined without prejudice, supports a <em>prima facie</em> case that the House of Rothschild orchestrated the French and American Revolutions to create the middle class (consumers) to “trash the planet.”</p>
<p>Our last President Bush, connected to the House of Rothschild global financial empire, was deadly serious when, after rejecting the global climate change targets of the July 2008 G8 summit, he said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dubya lost the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq, but is winning the war waged on the environment.</p>
<p>Therefore, you might conclude I have a tin-foil hat conspiracy theory for the House of Rothschild conning us into shopping for useless toxic “stuff”.</p>
<blockquote><p>But to suppose a conspiracy to environmentally damage and pollute the planet taking into consideration, national, international, state, regional and local governments then adjusting for the intricacies of population diversity, mentality and attitudes with all its inimitable contrivances, that an ecocide conspiracy could have been orchestrated by The House of Rothschild, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree.</p></blockquote>
<p>However what is not absurd:</p>
<p>The House of Rothschild understood &#8220;the science of historical motivation,&#8221; i.e. psychohistory (psychology and history) and the principle of methodological individualism (MI) (Broadbeck; Danto; Mandelbaum).</p>
<p>Methodological Individualism is the theory that  &#8220;the ultimate constituents of the social world are individual people.  Every complex situation, institution, or event is the result of a particular configuration and the interactions of groups &#8211; nations, political parties, gangs or tribes of individuals, their dispositions and beliefs, and physical resources and environments&#8221; (Danto, 267).</p>
<p>The Dark Ages shaped individual and group human behavior by changing the “dispositions and beliefs” of nearly all the east-west societies in Europe from worshipping the Earth (pagans), to worshiping Jesus Christ, Allah and Yahweh (monotheism) and that humans were now the greatest and most important part of creation.</p>
<p>The “good news” was man no longer had to obey the laws of nature; God wanted us fed, clothed and car-ed.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p>
<p>There are only three possibilities for how we probably passed the “<em>unknown points of no return</em>”, the first two:</p>
<ol>
<li>TPTB are inept, corrupt or just “stupid” because since 1910 the House of Rothschild and the evil robber barons behind our Federal Reserve have exchanged their real wealth for 600 trillion of fiat currency (monopoly money) they printed so former members of the Third Estate (serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs—the “stuff” which put the planet on the road to Ecocide.</li>
<li>TPTB are really benevolent and wanted their former serfs and slaves to have the highest standard of living for the last 75 years.</li>
</ol>
<p>Make no sense.</p>
<p>We passed the “<em>unknown points of no return</em>” because The House of Rothschild in a metaphysical war with mother-earth (Gaea), until October 2008 were using humans to weaken the planet with environmental damage and pollution.</p>
<p>Should their plan succeed, TPTB<em> believe,</em> they will attain immortality in a period known as the Millennium, a thousand years of peace, plenty and paradise on Earth in a New World Order for the House of Rothschild, the Bilderbergers, the CFR and other secret societies (Revelation 20:4-7).</p>

<p>[1] <strong>The Knights Templar:</strong> their origins go back to Solomon’s Temple, the Great Pyramid and Atlantis, have been associated with the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail, a secret fleet that sailed the oceans, and an awe-inspiring self-confidence and known today as the preservers of knowledge and sacred objects. <em>The Amazing Knights Templar </em>By David Hatcher Childress http://www.newdawnmagazine.info/Article/The_Amazing_Knights_Templar.html <em>Freemasons, Priory of Sion, Illuminati, Templars and Other Groups Explained </em>by Jotter Scalems in Organizations, May 21, 2008</p>
<p><strong>Atlantis</strong> Between 3113 BC and 1198 BC, there were the pass-by and eventual impact of the cometary object (called Proto-Encke) which destroyed the legendary island of Atlantis, located approximately 250 miles west of the Straits of Gibraltar. <em>The Destruction of Atlantis, and Survivors of Atlantis</em>, Frank Joseph</p>
<p>In his dialogues, Critias and Timaeus, Plato states that Atlantis sank beneath the waters following a great cataclysm 9000 years before his time. Until recently, the notion of a sunken island in the Atlantic was considered preposterous however recent geological, oceanographic, climatological and biological studies have conclusively shown that numerous islands did indeed exist in the Atlantic and other parts of the world in Paleolithic and Neolithic times. <em>Sacred Geography in Ancient Europe</em>, Martin Gray 2006, http://www.knowth.com/sacred-geography-1.htm</p>
<p>According to the Egyptian priests that Plato&#8217;s informant had spoken with, Atlantis had a prosperous and sophisticated civilization before its demise. Advanced in science, it was also in possession of knowledge concerning both the geography and geomancy of the entire earth.</p>
<p>[2] Geomancy may be defined as the discovery and mapping of power places on either regional or global scales. Evidence is accumulating which indicates that the mysterious Atlantis culture had mapped a planet-spanning grid of these terrestrial power points positioned with geometric regularity. This geomantic information, in various forms, later left its imprint on the sacred geographies of numerous other cultures. Globally occurring legends also tell of astronomer-sages who knew of grand celestial cycles, the existence of past cataclysms and the possibility of future ones. Geomantic power places would become, thousands of years later, the sacred sites of megalithic and succeeding cultures. <em>The Magic Land</em> by Martin Gray, http://www.world-mysteries.com/gw_mgray2.htm</p>
<p>[3] D<em>ownward manipulation</em> is an uneconomic aberration discovered in the precious metals market by the noted silver analyst Ted Butler. We are conditioned to believe that prices are always inflated so the greedy corporations can make more money but Ted Butler’s research confirmed the price of silver has been manipulated to stay at the $4-5 price range for years. The beneficiaries of this type of manipulation are the consumers since industrial users can sell their products cheaply and still make a profit the customers get to buy a lot more “radio” for their dollar. Silver, but No Silver Lining, Robert Singer.</p>

<li>Inflation, yes…but not for a while. And gold? Well, we are in it for the long run. In the short run, anything could happen.</li>
<li>To clarify our view on gold, The Daily Reckoning is not bearish on the metal. It is not bullish on the metal either. It is buggish. We are gold bugs. In the long run, gold will retain its value. Since that’s all we ask of it, we are always satisfied. Even if it is down in the short run – and it went through an 18-year down cycle from 1980 to 1998 – it will come back in the long run.</li>
<li>A wave of risk aversion swept through global markets, triggering massive technical selling in the precious metals.</li>
<li>Bullion tumbled more than 4 percent in heavy trade, briefly falling below $1,060 an ounce as escalating sovereign debt fears in Europe prompted investors to bid up the dollar and unload riskier assets.</li>
</ul>
<p>The “experts” are having trouble explaining the movements in the precious metals markets because they just can’t comprehend a debt-based monetary system.</p>
<blockquote><p>The process that the Federal Reserve, or any bank, uses to create money “consists of making an entry in a book, that is all,” says Graham Towers, governor of the Bank of Canada. “Each and every time a bank makes a loan (a debt) . . . new bank credit is created—brand new money.”</p></blockquote>
<p>There is just no limit to the amount of monopoly those scoundrels behind the Federal Reserve can create out of “thin air” that they use to manipulate the dollar on the foreign exchange market and the precious metals at the Comex.</p>
<p>You are free to <em>blame</em> them for keeping investors from being wealthy while everyone else is out of work, out of hope and living in tent cities, but be sure and <em>thank</em> them for postponing the greatest calamity the world has ever seen.</p>
<p>When The Powers That Be can no longer keep the precious metals from taking off and the dollar from landing at zero, look out, Mad Max and the breakdown of society is around the corner: This is an Ominous <em>Neutral</em> Sign.</p>

<p>[Note: If you are not up-to-date with the debate over Evolution, Creationism and Intelligent Design, you will want to read the Preface Notes first, identified by a [p] at the beginning of the sentence. Preface Notes will separate fact from fiction and rumor from humor in my prima facie case for Intelligent Design.]</p>
<p>[<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p1</a>] Professor Richard Dawkins, one of the greatest living “experts” on blind Watchmakers and selfish gene-centric Evolution got out his Ouija Board to channel the spirit of Charles Darwin, author of The Origin of Species and the father of Naturalism and Atheism.</p>
<p>Contacting Darwin was considered of a dangerous and controversial nature because if his current residence is Hell then a whole lot of evolutionary biologists will be out of work.</p>
<p>[<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p2</a>] Dawkins and company agreed it was worth the risk because there aren’t enough Evolutionists to rip out the pages of one million copies of Ray Comforts new book linking Darwin and Natural Selection to Hitler.</p>
<p>Richard Dawkins (RD) was the designated medium and Niles Eldredge took the following notes.</p>
<p>Everyone placed their fingers on the planchette and Mr. Dawkins asked the Ouija board the burning question, “Charles, are you in Hell?”</p>
<p>Spirit Response: “The subscriber you are trying to reach out of range, planchette<em> will now channel hypothetically</em>.”</p>
<p><em>What follows is pure Unadulterated Unverified Nonsense and reflects my belief that </em>the scientific arguments and rational thinking of Intelligent Design is a thirst-quenching alternative from the obdurate (obstinate) Evolutionists whose only motivation is to eliminate God.<em> </em></p>
<p><em>Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead is purely coincidental. </em>Since Charles Darwin, Richard Dawkins or Niles Eldredge never attended a channeling session, neither of them could endorse these views, which may or may not prove to be correct.</p>
<p>RD: Mr. Darwin, everyone wants to know if there are any Evolutionists in Foxholes?</p>
<p>Darwin: Huh?</p>
<p>RD: [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p3</a>] Creationists are telling everyone you repented because you were reading the book of Hebrews to Lady Hope on a beautiful autumn afternoon a few days before you died.</p>
<p>Darwin: Ah yes, that autumn afternoon, I can still smell her perfume.</p>
<p>RD: So you were with her and reading the Bible before you died?</p>
<p>Darwin: Well, if you mean six months before I died and “with her” in a biblical sense, the answer is yes.</p>
<p>RD: You read a story from the Bible to get her in bed?</p>
<p>Darwin: She was an evangelical, what story should I have read? Richard, do you know the difference between girls aged: 8, 18, women 28, 38, 48 and ladies 58 and 68?</p>
<p>RD: No</p>
<p>Darwin: At 8 &#8211; You put her to bed and tell her a story. At 18 &#8211; You tell her a story and take her to bed. At 28 &#8211; You don&#8217;t need to tell her a story to take her to bed. At 38 &#8211; She tells you a story and takes you to bed. At 48 &#8211; You tell her a story to avoid going to bed. At 58 &#8211; You stay in bed to avoid her story.</p>
<p>I was 73; taking Lady Hope to bed was a BIG story!!</p>
<p>RD: So you never regretted coming up with the Theory of Evolution?</p>
<p>Darwin: Of course not, my daughter told everyone as much and getting “life from non-life” is a hypothesis not a theory and I stole that from Anaximander. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f1</a>]</p>
<p>RD: But you added a plausible mechanism, &#8220;Natural Selection.&#8221;</p>
<p>Darwin: Notice the word “plausible”. Just because some birds (i.e. finches) had long curved beaks so they could get fat eating tiny bugs on the Galapagos Islands doesn’t prove that life began in a &#8220;primordial soup&#8221;. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f2</a>]</p>
<p>RD: That was only variety, what about similarity? If you look at an x-ray of the upper limb of a crocodile, a bird and a human, they all have five digits for “fingers” and two bones in the forearm. Similarities are evidence that we have all descended from some common ancestor.</p>
<p>Darwin: Sure, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, it was a good design…worthy of being duplicated.</p>
<p>Look Richard, after 150 years I expected you guys to come up with something better than if a bird was born with the wrong beak he uses it to fight because a short stout beak is useless to get insects out of crevasses in the rocks.</p>
<p>RD: [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p4</a>] Well we might have if Michael Behe hadn’t written Darwin&#8217;s Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution based on your definition of “irreducibly complex.”</p>
<p>Darwin: So what? Only the religious dummies go to Christian bookstores.  Bush Jr., Quayle and the Creationists prove Professor Lynn’s research that less than 7% of university academics believe in God. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f3</a>]</p>
<p>RD: Normally, that would be so, but Behe makes a credible, sophisticated case for Creationism without using the Bible so his book is at Borders, Barnes &amp; Noble. Thank “god” for Judge John E. Jones III, who was nominated by President George W. Bush, who ruled Intelligent Design is not science but essentially religious in nature and cited Behe&#8217;s testimony in Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f4</a>]</p>
<p>But I got to tell you it’s hard to attack a reputable scientist from a reputable institution with a sophisticated argument even with a court case from a biased judge.  And wait till you see his photo.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.rumormillnews.com/pix5/Behe.jpg" /></p>
<p>Darwin: So what’s the problem?</p>
<p>RD: Michael Behe represented himself as a scientist persuaded by the evidence, not a Creationist with an evangelical agenda like John Sanford with a toothy smile bragging about being saved: [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f5</a>]</p>
<p><img src="http://www.rumormillnews.com/pix5/John_C_Sanford.jpg" /></p>
<p>Darwin: What’s Behe saying?</p>
<p>RW: He maintains that biological systems are irreducibly complex and possess incredibly complicated structures that can be reduced to very basic states.</p>
<p>Darwin: Didn’t I say that?</p>
<p>RD: Yes but he proved that if an everyday non-biological irreducible complex mousetrap could not have developed in stages then a species which originally possessed no eyes will never come to possess perfect ones due to a small chance development because it affords an advantage due to natural selection. Behe says, “such a system without an Engine of Change could not have evolved slowly, piece by piece.” Behe and his buddies found out modern genetics, not random radioactive mutation is the engine of change. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f6</a>]</p>
<p>Darwin: Well, random mutations <em>are</em> random. Haven’t we proven a mutated gene can cause cancer, organ failure and death? New species result from trillions of trillions of random tiny “beneficial” random mutations. Did I mention they are random and life probably came about through… you guessed it, a series of … random mutations?</p>
<p><em>[TRANSMISSION INTERRUPTED]</em></p>
<blockquote><p>This is another favorite deductive method of the evolutionary theorist. The &#8220;improbability drive&#8221;, in which they decide upon a conclusion without any evidence whatsoever to support it, and then continually speculate a series of wildly improbable events and unbelievable co-incidences to support it, shrugging off the implausibility of each event with the vague assertion that sometimes the impossible happens (just about all the time in their world). There is a principle called &#8220;Occam&#8217;s Razor&#8221; which suggests that in the absence of evidence to the contrary, the simplest explanation, Intelligent Design, is most likely to be correct. Evolutionists hate Occam&#8217;s Razor.</p></blockquote>
<p><em>[TRANSMISSION RESUMED]</em></p>
<p>RD: Yes, Charles we get it. But Michael Denton wrote Evolution a Theory in Crisis and points out “The the tiniest bacterial cells are irreducibly complex, and are actually a microminiaturized factory containing thousands of exquisitely designed pieces of intricate molecular machinery made up of a hundred thousand million atoms far more complicated than any machine made by man and absolutely without parallel in the non-living world.”</p>
<p>A new generation of bacteria typically grows in 20 minutes to a few hours and although there is much variation in bacteria and many mutations they never turn into anything new. They always remain bacteria.</p>
<p>Forget human vision being formed by Natural Selection, molecular biologists have demonstrated that the cell could not have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f7</a>]</p>
<p>Darwin: Well, you can’t say I didn’t warn you when “I freely confessed that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, <em>WAS</em> absurd in the highest degree.”</p>
<p>RD: But you said, “the <em>absurdity</em> was illusory and that the difficulty of believing a perfect and complex eye could be formed by Natural Selection, though insuperable by our imagination, can hardly be considered real&#8221;… Of course, no one knows what the Hell you are talking about… “illusory, insuperable, can be considered real” but it was all we had.</p>
<p>Darwin: Yes, I wrote a confusing sentence, what did you want me to do? Admit I <em>wanted to find an alternative to God</em> because I could not persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created the Ichneumonidae with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of Caterpillars, or that a cat should play with mice.”  Richard, have you persuaded yourself there could be a beneficent God that would allow suffering?</p>
<p>RD: No, but I’m not omnipotent and why does there have to be a benefit in beneficent?  On the other hand, a “perfect and complex eye” is a benefit for human vision.</p>
<p>Darwin: The “ayes” were a problem even before modern ophthalmology.</p>
<p>RD: Damn those eye scientists. They found three, almost imperceptibly tiny eye movements ‘tremors, drifts and saccades’ caused by minute contractions in the six muscles attached to the outside of each of your eyes. Every fraction of a second, they very slightly shift the position of your eyeball, automatically, without conscious effort on your part, making human vision possible.</p>
<p>Tremors — the tiniest and probably the most inexplicable of these movements, continuously and rapidly wobble your eyeball about its center in a circular fashion. They cause the cornea and retina (front and back) of your eyes to move in circles with incredibly minute diameters of approximately 1/1000 (.001) of a millimeter, or .00004 inch. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f8</a>]</p>
<p>This size is about 70 times smaller than the thickness of a piece of paper.</p>
<p>Darwin: You can’t be serious, are you saying that 70 circles of the same diameter (OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO) all touching can be placed in a row straight across the thickness of the paper?</p>
<p>RD: Yep. There are other problems too; people are questioning the benefit of symmetrical mutations in aiding survival. How would you explain two symmetrical, arms, ears, nostrils and eyes?</p>
<p>Heck, I’m thinking an eye in the back of my head would be handy but on the other hand two arms are necessary to pop open a can of Beer.</p>
<p>Darwin: Well, an eye in the back of your head would be useful if your only concern was a predator sneaking up behind you when you were drunk, but you need to think Survival of the Symmetrists and Lady Hope.  There would have been no story about taking her to bed if I looked like The Elephant Man.</p>
<p>By the way, did you go to inaugural Gordon Conference in Neuroethology in the UK?</p>
<p>RD: [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p5</a>] No, but Bora Zivkovic did and made the mistake of exposing Carl Zimmer for leaving out the Ampulex compressa (Emerald Cockroach Wasp) and its prey/host the American Cockroach (Periplaneta americana) out of his research.</p>
<p>Darwin: [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15290">p6</a>] We have an explanation for the wasp: They represent an evolutionary transition.</p>
<p>In the beginning, wasps were bigger and strong enough to drag a paralyzed cockroach to their burrow where they laid an egg on the belly of the roach.</p>
<p>The egg hatches and the larva chews a hole in the side of the roach and begins devouring the organs one by one for about eight days. However, the offspring of the fit wasps were stupid and ate the organs in the wrong order and the roach died before they could hatch. This gave an evolutionary advantage to the smart larva, one that saved the nervous system organs for dessert.</p>
<p>However, the larvae that survived weren’t strong enough to drag a big roach into its burrow so they had to learn how to retool the roach&#8217;s neural network that only affects the specific circuits that are involved in walking. The wasps took classes in neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neurochemistry so they could learn about the nervous systems, metabolism and the specific factors that regulate dendritic branching patterns of neurons; molecular, cellular and behavioral effects of neurotoxins in cockroaches.</p>
<p>Then the smaller smarter wasps can inject it’s venom <em>very precisely</em> into the subesophageal ganglion in the head of the roach so they can grab the roach by its antennae and walk it around like a dog on a leash back to its nest.</p>
<p>RD: And don’t forget the witty comment from “Kafka” on Zimmer&#8217;s blog:</p>
<p>&#8220;I had a dream that I was a cockroach, and that wasp Ann Coulter stuck me with her stinger, zombified my brain, led me by pulling my antenna into her nest at Fox News, and laid her Neocon eggs on me. Soon a fresh baby college Republican hatched out, burrowed into my body, and devoured me from the inside. Ann Coulter&#8217;s designs may be intelligent, but she&#8217;s one cruel god.&#8221;</p>
<p>Darwin:  I must freely confess this example of evolutionary transition is absurd. By the way what are you doing to stop Ray Comfort from giving away his special edition of My Origin of Species making me responsible for Hitler’s “final solution”?</p>
<p>RD: We are using a favorite Creationist tactic:  Unilateral resistance, book burnings and I’m telling the students to rip out the Introduction of the book.</p>
<p>Darwin: Is that working?</p>
<p>RWD: No, but it doesn’t matter because someone is now arguing the existence of God with Intelligent Design based on the perceived evidence of order, purpose, and design in nature. They got it from Plato and Aristotle.</p>
<blockquote><p>Teleology: study of causes says the existence of God is intuitive and makes a prima facie case for an intelligent designer. Though modern science rejects creationism, which holds that the human race can be traced to a talking snake and a spare human rib, Kent Hovind stresses it requires even more faith to believe in evolution. [<a href="http://www.daily.pk/?p=15297&amp;preview=true">f9</a>]</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Buzzzt –Negative energy detected…</strong>Charles<strong> </strong><em>Darwin wanted to find an alternative to God; Richard Dawkins wants to prove he is smarter than God.</em></p>
<p>Please wait…. take a few deep breaths while we fill Richard Dawkins with an entirely different personality. Tuning RD to an Intelligent Designed spirit.</p>
<p><strong>RD (Spirit-filled): </strong></p>
<p>Creationists try and prove the existence of God, which is <em>true</em> with false and absurd statements from the Bible:<strong> </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>“In the beginning God&#8230;” Genesis 1:1 Actually the Bible doesn’t need to prove God. It simply declares His existence as a settled fact, and then tries to win the debate with a free pass to heaven for all that believe that he is, and a promise of Hell for those who those fools that hath said in his heart, there is no God”. Psalm 53:1. They know the bible is true because it couldn’t have been authored by men-it foretells the future with 100% accuracy every time.</p></blockquote>
<p>Evolutionists try and prove that Macroevolution, which is <em>false</em> with Microevolution, which is true.</p>
<blockquote><p>Microevolution can explain the types of bird beaks, the colors of moths and the length of the giraffe’s neck because they are variations in the gene pool of each species.  Selective breeding cannot create a new species and when it goes too far the species doesn’t evolve into something different it dies out.</p></blockquote>
<p>It’s been 150 years and no one has found a natural process that can show how things to fall together into organized complexity (macroevolution).</p>
<p>According to the brilliant English astronomer, Sir Fred Hoyle, the chances of higher life forms ever evolving is the same as a tornado sweeping through a junk-yard, assembling a Boeing 747 from the materials therein or about 1 in <em>10 to the 40,000th power.</em></p>
<p>To illustrate just how impossible it is, imagine this: On the ground are all the materials needed to build a house (nails, boards, shingles, windows, etc.).  We tie a hammer to the wagging tail of a dog and let him wander about the work site for as long as you please, even millions of years.  The swinging hammer on the dog is as likely to build a house as mutation-natural selection is to make a single new working part in an animal, let alone a new creature.</p>
<p>You can cross a cocker spaniel with poodle and get a cockapoo but if it looks like a dog, barks like a dog, a cockapoo is still a dog.  If you want to prove The Theory of Evolution, then let’s see a frogapoo.</p>
<p>Darwin:  I know not what course others may take, but as for me if it’s a choice between Evolution, Creation and Deism I’ll stay dead.</p>
<p><strong>Epilogue</strong></p>
<p>Believe it or not, the best essay about the debate over Evolution was written by Jim Pappas and published in the Indianapolis Christian Issues Examiner on September 11, 2009.</p>
<p>Of course, Jim is a Creationist who wants to show “how to mine the riches of God’s Word and ferret out the truth of history and science in the Bible”, but we won’t hold that against him.</p>
<p>[Beginning of “Emperor of evolution has no clothes”, by Jim Pappas]</p>
<blockquote><p>“&#8230;we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated.”  Dr. Richard Lewontin &#8211; 1997</p></blockquote>
<p>You can see by many of the comments to this series on Dr. Lewontin’s quote that evolution’s adherents claim science is counter-intuitive, and often against common sense.</p>
<p>There is a plainly stated reason for this, “we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes”.</p>
<p>Evolutionists are “forced” by their “a priori adherence to material causes” to believe evolution is the only possible answer.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Because their pre-existing belief that there is no God, and there is nothing beyond the observed natural realm.</p>
<p>Evolutionists purposely limit their views to fit their presupposition, and anything that disagrees with them they decry is “unscientific” or “religious”.</p>
<p>The truth does not matter to the evolutionist; the only thing that matters is their absolute faith in material causes.</p>
<p>It does not matter to them that their explanations are counter-intuitive.</p>
<p>They just claim “science” is counter-intuitive.</p>
<p>But is science really counter-intuitive?</p>
<p>When the apple fell on Newton, was it counter-intuitive to think there is some force causing the apple to fall down, instead of falling up? Is it counter-intuitive to observe that mammals drown if they breathe under water because they need oxygen in the form of gas?</p>
<p>Is in counter-intuitive to understand that the heart is what pumps the blood through the body and not the liver? Science is NOT counterintuitive.</p>
<p>So what else are evolutionists left with?</p>
<p>Creating “an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations&#8230;no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated.”</p>
<p>In the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary (online), “mystify” means “to intentionally perplex the mind of”, “impose upon the credulity of” and “make obscure or difficult to understand”, or “to embellish (as fact) or fancifully”.</p>
<p>Why in the world would evolutionists want their concepts to “intentionally perplex the mind of” people, or make them “obscure or difficult to understand”?</p>
<p>It is so they will seem so intelligent and beyond question that people will follow lock step into their belief system because of their perceived brilliance without noticing that the Emperor of Evolution has no clothes.</p>
<p>Just who are these “uninitiated”?</p>
<p>The “uninitiated” are all people, and particularly all people who do not readily buy into the hoax of evolution. The “uninitiated” are anybody without advanced degrees who dare to question the so-called science used by evolutionists. What about the people with advanced degrees who disagree with evolution? Just ask an evolutionist, who will describe the highly qualified and educated scientists who disagree with them as “stupid”, “insane”, “out of their minds”, and “not really scientists”.</p>
<p>When you think about it, evolution is more of a fanatical religion whose adherents absolutely despise anyone who would defile their system of beliefs, than honest science. Do not dare expose their way of thinking, or their faith; unless their wrath means little to you.</p>

<p><strong>Preface and Footnotes</strong></p>
<p>[p1] Clinton Richard Dawkins, FRS, FRSL (born 26 March 1941) is a British biological theorist with a background in ethology and who came to prominence in 1976 book with his book The Selfish Gene, which popularized the gene-centered view of evolution. Dawkins was a co-founder of the Out Campaign, as a means of advancing atheism and free thought and is one of world&#8217;s most widely publicized atheists. He is a prominent critic of religion, creationism and pseudoscience</p>
<p>19th Century: Watchmaker analogy William Paley said that if you were walking through the woods and saw a smooth stone on the ground, no big deal, just a river stone formed by the forces of nature. But if you saw a watch on the ground, you would immediately know that this was made by a watchmaker because of its complexity. Since a living organism is more complex than that watch, it too must be designed.</p>
<p>Dawkins in 1986 said living systems “give the appearance of having been designed for a purpose.” But then wrote “The Blind Watchmaker: Why the Evidence of Evolution Reveals a Universe Without Design” to prove the “appearance of design” was only an illusion which could be explained by evolution and natural selection.</p>
<p>In the book he argued against the watchmaker analogy, and described a dysteleological perspective on the process of evolution by natural selection as &#8220;blind&#8221;, without a design or a goal.</p>
<p>In his 2006 million-selling book The God Delusion, he contended that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist, writing that beliefs, based on faith rather than on evidence are a delusion.</p>
<p>[p2] &#8220;We have a clip on livingwaters.com of Richard Dawkins speaking about &#8216;Survival of the fittest.&#8217; In responding to the statement &#8216;So the way we have created our human society where we look after the weaker people is counter evolutionary,&#8217; he said, &#8216;profoundly counter Darwinian, and thank goodness for that.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>Ray Comfort is the Founder/President/CEO of Living Waters Publications. After relocating from New Zealand to Southern California in the late 1980s, Ray introduced a long line of pastors and churches to a biblical teaching which he called Hell&#8217;s Best Kept Secret.</p>
<p>If the special edition of Ray Comfort&#8217;s special edition of The Origin of Species that presents the case for Intelligent Design is as weak as atheists maintain, why would Dawkins telling his followers to rip it out? Answer: Because it would strengthen the case for evolution? But it does the opposite, and that&#8217;s why they are so threatened,&#8221; Comfort says. &#8220;Among other things, they don&#8217;t want students to discover how Hitler used evolution as the catalyst for his &#8216;final solution.&#8217;&#8221; Los Angeles, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire-US Newswire/</p>
<p>[p3] Darwin’s theory of evolution according to an “Urban Legend” bothered Darwin later in life because he was worried it would lead to atheism.  He, himself, admitted that something as infinitely complex as the human eye could not come about through blind random chance.  Shortly after his death, Lady Hope addressed a gathering of young men and women at the educational establishment founded by the evangelist Dwight Lyman Moody at Northfield, Massachusetts. She had, she maintained, visited Darwin on his deathbed on a beautiful autumn afternoon. He had been reading the Epistle to the Hebrews, had asked for the local Sunday school to sing in a summerhouse on the grounds, and had confessed: &#8220;How I wish I had not expressed my theory of evolution as I have done.&#8221; He went on, she said, to say that he would like her to gather a congregation since he &#8220;would like to speak to them of Christ Jesus and His salvation, being in a state where he was eagerly savoring the heavenly anticipation of bliss.&#8221;</p>
<p>However a letter written by Darwin’s daughter on February 23, 1922 to The Christian, a religious journal refute any such savoring of heavenly bliss, her comments:</p>
<p>“I was present at his [Darwin’s—BT] deathbed. Lady Hope was not present during his last illness, or any illness. I believe he never even saw her, but in any case she had no influence over him in any department of thought and belief. He never recanted any of his scientific views, either then or earlier. We think that story of his conversion was fabricated in the USA. In most of these versions, hymn singing comes in and a summerhouse where the servants and villagers sang hymns to him. There is no such summerhouse and no servants or villagers ever sang hymns to him. The whole story has no foundation whatsoever (see Hawton, 1958, p. 4).”</p>
<p>Also to be considered is this: many of the “facts” of the Lady Hope story are, quite simply, wrong. For example, Darwin died April 19, 1882. But the story of Lady Hope specifically states that she visited him on a beautiful autumn afternoon. That would have left six months between her visit, and his demise. Yet evidence available to us proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that Darwin was neither bedridden nor “on his deathbed” during that six-month period</p>
<p>[p4] Michael Behe is a biophysics professor at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania and his book, <em>Darwin&#8217;s Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution</em> released last summer, has been causing a firestorm of activity in academic circles ever since. Creationist books are rarely sold in secular bookstores or reviewed in secular publications and are usually released by Christian or small secular publishers willing to take a chance. <em>Darwin&#8217;s Black Box</em> has gained the attention of evolutionists not normally accustomed to responding to anti-evolutionary ideas in the academic arena. People like Niles Eldredge from the American Museum of Natural History, Daniel Dennett, author of <em>Darwin&#8217;s Dangerous Idea</em>, Richard Dawkins of Oxford University and author of <em>The Blind Watchmaker</em>, Jerry Robison of Harvard University, and David Hull from the University of Chicago have all been forced to respond to Behe either in print or in person. In summary, the reason for all this attention is that they readily admit that Behe is a reputable scientist from a reputable institution and his argument is therefore more sophisticated than they are accustomed to hearing from creationists. Creationists and intelligent design theorists are usually dismissed Ad Hominem, but not Behe&#8217;s <em>Darwin&#8217;s Black Box.</em></p>
<p>Behe&#8217;s simple claim is that when Darwin wrote The Origin of Species, the cell was a mysterious black box. We could see the outside of it, but we had no idea of how it worked. In Origin, Darwin stated,</p>
<p>“If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed, which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down. But I can find no such case.”</p>
<p>Behe found the case in the Black Box and your everyday non-biological irreducible complex mousetrap. It is composed of five basic parts: a catch (to hold the bait), a powerful spring, a thin rod called &#8220;the hammer,&#8221; a holding bar to secure the hammer in place, and a platform to mount the trap. If any one of these parts is missing, the mechanism will not work because each individual part is integral and therefore must be…irreducibly complex. <a href="http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/behe/review.html">http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/behe/review.html</a>, Darwin&#8217;s Black Box Irreducible Complexity or Irreproducible Irreducibility? by Keith Robison</p>
<p>[p5] <em>Revenge of the Zombifying Wasp</em>, Bora Zivkovic, February 04, 2006</p>
<p>I am quite surprised that Carl Zimmer, in research for his book Parasite Rex, did not encounter the fascinating case of the Ampulex compressa (Emerald Cockroach Wasp) and its prey/host the American Cockroach (Periplaneta americana, see also comments on Aetiology and Ocellated).</p>
<p>In 1999, I (Bora Zivkovic) went to Oxford, UK, to the inaugural Gordon Conference in Neuroethology and one of the many exciting speakers I was looking forward to seeing was Fred Libersat.</p>
<p>The talk was half-hot half-cold. To be precise, the first half was hot and the second half was not.</p>
<p>In the first half, he not just introduced the whole behavior, he also showed us a longish movie, showing in high magnification and high resolution all steps of this complex behavior (you can see a cool picture of the wasp&#8217;s head here).</p>
<p>First, the wasp gives the roach a quick hit-and-run stab with its stinger into the body (thorax) and flies away. After a while, the roach starts grooming itself furiously for some time, followed by complete stillness. Once the roach becomes still, the wasp comes back, positions itself quite carefully on top of the roach and injects its venom <em>very precisely</em> into the subesophageal ganglion in the head of the roach. The venom is a cocktail of dopamine and protein toxins so the effect is <em>behavioral modification</em> instead of paralysis.</p>
<p>Apparently, (<em>apparently</em> is a word evolutionary psychologists often use when trying to describe events that took place centuries ago. In the absence of hard evidence speculation reigns supreme) the wasp&#8217;s stinger has receptors that guide it to its precise target:</p>
<p>&#8220;To investigate what guides the sting, Ram Gal and Frederic Libersat of Ben-Gurion University in Beer-Sheva, Israel, first introduced the wasp to roaches whose brains had been removed. Normally, it takes about a minute for the wasp to find its target, sting, and fly off. But in the brainless roaches, the wasps searched the empty head cavity for an average of 10 minutes. A radioactive tracer injected into the wasps revealed that when they finally did sting, they used about 1/6 the usual amount of venom. The wasps knew something was amiss.&#8221;</p>
<p>The wasp then saws off the tips of the roach&#8217;s antennae and drinks the hemolymph from them. It builds a nest &#8211; just a little funnel made of soil and pebbles and leads the roach, by pulling at its antenna as if it was a dog-leash, into the funnel. It then lays an egg onto the leg of the roach, closes off the entrance to the funnel with a rock and leaves. The roach remains alive, but completely still in the nest for quite some time (around five weeks). The venom, apart from eliminating all defensive behaviors of the roach, also slows the metabolism of the cockroach, allowing it to live longer without food and water. After a while, the wasp egg hatches, eats its way into the body of the roach, eats the internal organs of the roach, then pupates and hatches. What comes out of the (now dead) cockroach is not a larva (as usually happens with insect parasitoids) but an adult wasp, ready to mate and deposit eggs on new cockroaches.</p>
<p>Why was the second half of the talk a disappointment?</p>
<p>I know for a fact I was not the only one there who expected a deeper look into evolutionary aspects of this highly complex set of behaviors. However, the talk went into a different direction &#8211; interesting in itself, for sure, but not as much as an evolutionary story would have been. Libersat described in nitty-gritty detail experiments that uncovered, one by one, secrets of the neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and neurochemistry of the cockroach escape behavior &#8211; the one suppressed by toxin &#8211; as well as the chemistry of the toxin cocktail. Ganglion after ganglion, neuron after neuron, neurotransmitter after neurotransmitter, the whole behavior was charted for us on the screen. It’s an impressive feat, but disappointing when we were all salivating at a prospect of a cool evolutionary story. http://sciencepolitics.blogspot.com/2006/02/revenge-of-zombifying-wasp.html</p>
<h4>[p6] Transitional Fossils</h4>
<p>“The number of intermediate varieties, which have formerly existed on the earth, must be truly enormous. Why then is not every geological formation and every stratum <span style="text-decoration: underline;">full of such intermediate links?</span> Geology assuredly does not reveal any such finely graded organic chain; and this, perhaps, is the most obvious and gravest objection which can be urged against my theory.” <em>Charles Darwin</em></p>
<p>Transitional Fossils, 150 years later: have they found them yet? No.</p>
<p>Do you notice any fish today growing little stumps, legs, so they can crawl up on land?</p>
<p>Are there any reptiles developing feathers today?</p>
<p>We should be able to see this sort of evidence if evolution is occurring today. Why don’t we see half formed organs instead of complete ones?</p>
<p>Stephen Jay Gould knew about the absence of transitional fossils and invented the idea of “punctuated equilibrium” to explain this absence. The basic idea is that there were periods of extreme biological changes that occurred over short periods of time which precluded the build-up of a fossil record due to lack of time.</p>
<p>What is his primary evidence for his theory?</p>
<p>Answer: The lack of evidence!</p>
<p>What do we actually find in the record?</p>
<p>We find a sudden appearance of a vast number of highly complex organisms (known as the Cambrian explosion) then stasis.</p>
<p>How can this support a transitional theory?</p>
<h4>Non-viability of transitional forms</h4>
<p>Two lizards had some little babies. They noticed their scales were a bit fuzzier than normal. Then these fuzzy scaled lizards passed on these traits to their offspring and the scales continued to mutate to more feather like things.</p>
<p>You see, these are the pre-cursor to wings. But the feathers are getting so long now, they are getting in the way and even though they can’t yet fly, they can’t run very well either. They are having trouble escaping predators and getting food.</p>
<p>This is the problem with transitional forms for complex features. Until some primitive if not complete functionality is there, there is no advantage. This is known as the non-viability of transitional forms.</p>
<p>Footnotes:</p>
<p>[f1] Many people misunderstand what Darwin&#8217;s theory is about. Perhaps the most common error is that it is a theory of the origin of life (&#8221;abiogenesis&#8221;), that is not the case &#8211; Darwin&#8217;s theory does not deal with that matter, but rather is only about how successive generations of organisms change over time (&#8221;evolution&#8221;). Another common point of confusion about Darwin&#8217;s work is that he was the first person to propose the idea of evolution &#8211; this is far from the case &#8211; evolutionary ideas date back to at least the 6th century BCE (e.g. the Greek philosopher Anaximander). Instead Darwin&#8217;s great “insight” was &#8220;natural selection&#8221;, which is an explanation of how evolution works to produce new species and to create organisms suited to their environments.</p>
<p>[f2] Charles Darwin 1809 – 1882 was trained to be a Clergyman of the Church of England.  After graduating from Cambridge at the age of 22, he gave up the Christian ministry to become a naturalist.</p>
<p>Charles Darwin is today known for his theory of evolution by natural selection. He developed this theory over a number of years after returning from a 5 year (1831 to 1836) round the world voyage on HMS Beagle. He observed the varieties of plants, animals and fossils in different regions of the world and noticed certain similarities in some species and came to the conclusion that simpler life forms evolved into more complex life forms. The outline of the theory was first presented in a paper read to the Linnean Society by Charles Darwin&#8217;s friends, Sir Charles Lyell and John Dalton Hooker (Darwin himself was unable to attend this presentation of his work because of the recent death of his infant son from scarlet fever) on July 1st 1857. Darwin then presented his ideas to a wider public, and at considerably greater length, in his classic 1859 book, &#8220;On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or The Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life&#8221;, which today is usually referred to simply as &#8220;On the Origin of Species.&#8221;</p>
<p>[f3] In a forthcoming paper for the journal Intelligence, Richard Lynn, emeritus professor of psychology at the University of Ulster, argues that there is a strong correlation between high IQ and lack of religious belief and that average intelligence predicts atheism rates across 137 countries. Several Gallup poll studies of the general population have shown that those with higher IQs tend not to believe in God.&#8221; A survey of Royal Society fellows found that only 3.3 per cent believed in God &#8211; at a time when 68.5 per cent of the general UK population described themselves as believers. A separate poll in the 90s found only seven per cent of members of the American National Academy of Sciences believed in God. Times Higher Education magazine.</p>
<p>[f4] The decision of the court in the Kitzmiller et al. v Dover Area School District et al. case: Judge John E. Jones III, who was nominated by President George W. Bush, made a very strong ruling that intelligent design is creationism not science and that members of Dover&#8217;s school board lied under oath to hide their religious motivations.

<p>However, the first ID scientists were actually motivated by the inability of modern biology to explain the origin of the digital information encoded in the DNA molecule well prior to the 1987 ruling. And many physicists during the 60’s and 70’s, including Fred Hoyle who coined the famous “Big Bang” quote, had increasingly been persuaded by the evidence of a finely tuned universe ideally suited to support the existence of life.</p>
<p>There is however an interesting tension between the ID movement in science and Christians who believe the Genesis account of creation literally. The ID people do not advocate any particular designer or even refer to God at all. That is not their interest. This tension is not to say that ID is not a friend to Christians who believe the Bible Creation story. Their scientific arguments and rational thinking are a refreshing respite from the bulldog like evolutionists whose primary motivation appears to be to eliminate God. <em> </em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>[Note: You can hardly swing a cat without hitting a headline related, according to me, to me<a href="http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2009/12/11/the-most-important-issue-in-the-history-"><em> The Most Important Issue</em> in the History of the Universe.]</a></p>
<p>The agreement—first reported by Mother Jones on Friday—is a major victory for the plaintiffs, some of the recovered messages could potentially shed light on controversies such as the lead-up to the Iraq war and the leak of Valerie Plame Wilson&#8217;s covert CIA identity.</p>
<p>A Major Victory?</p>
<p><strong>I can hardly stop laughing!</strong></p>
<p>Valerie Plame first became a household name when her identity was disclosed by conservative columnist Robert Novak on July 14, 2003. The column came only a week after her husband, former ambassador Joseph Wilson, had written an op-ed for the New York Times asserting that White House officials twisted pre-war intelligence on Iraq.</p>
<p>Her outing was seen as political retaliation for Wilson’s criticism of the Administration’s claim that Iraq sought uranium from Niger for a nuclear weapons program.</p>
<p>According to George W. Bush, the 2003 invasion of Iraq was required because Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) and a connection to 9/11&#8211;and don’t forget Bush wanted to free the Iraqi people.</p>
<p>Recently, the Bush Administration has admitted there were no WMDs and Saddam Hussein had no ties to the attacks on 9/11.</p>
<p>Enter Valerie Plame, the Spy Who Got Shoved Out Into the Cold.</p>
<p>The Plame leak was a breach of national security and a violation of law under the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982.</p>
<p>One could &#8220;predict that the investigation” of Bush and Cheney would die in the CIA as George J. Tenet would stay loyal to Bush.</p>
<p>But instead, in another one of those strange quirks of fate, Mr. Tenet decided to do “the right thing” and investigate the scandal – ad nauseaum.</p>
<p>The story was in the news until 2007 and Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald during the investigation commented, &#8220;As you sit back, you want to learn why was this information going out. Why were people taking this information about Valerie Wilson and giving it to reporters?&#8221;</p>
<p>Answer? Disinformation.  Instead of organizing an elaborate PR campaign to disparage Wilson, Cheney could have directed the CIA to hide a few WMDs prior to the invasion.</p>
<p>“We found them, he had them, look, here they are, Bush and Cheney were telling the truth.”   [1]</p>
<p><strong>Next, consider CODEPINK </strong></p>
<p>A group of women who want to end the war in Iraq.</p>
<p>It is now 2009, when will Jodie Evans, Diane Wilson and Medea Benjamin realize the obvious: We aren’t leaving Iraq for at least 100 years.</p>
<p>The House, Senate and the Bush Administration are gone but the troops are permanently deployed in the &#8220;Cradle of Civilization.”</p>
<p>Jodie, Diane and Medea: You can’t “bring the troops home” if you don’t know why the U.S. is building permanent headquarters, a $592 million &#8220;Embassy in Baghdad.”</p>
<p>We are not in Iraq because we are addicted to war, to liberate the people from the tyranny of Hussein&#8217;s version of Ba&#8217;athism or because Saddaam had WMDs or a connection to 9-11.</p>
<p>And you can forget about oil and geopolitics. Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan put that assertion to rest when he claimed, &#8220;The Iraq war is largely about oil.&#8221;</p>
<p>The intentional outing of Bush, Cheney and Valerie Plame is so absurd they expected you to believe the administration was acting on behalf of Bush’s buddies in the oil industry.</p>
<p>There is little or no evidence that Big Oil favored a war, particularly one carried out unilaterally that risked destabilizing the world&#8217;s most oil-rich region, Saudi Arabia and the Emirates.</p>
<p><em>Exopolitics</em> is a study based on the belief there is an extraterrestrial (ET) presence on Earth and clandestine government organizations have intentionally withheld the information from the population.</p>
<p>The work of Dr.Michael E. Salla, PhD in government from the University of Queensland and William Henry conclude <em>the U.S. and German governments believe there is a Stargate (portal to another world) in Iraq</em>, a country also known as Ancient Mesopotamia, the land of Babylonia and the Cradle of Civilization. [2]</p>
<p>My goal in writing is to help wake up the huddled masses.</p>
<p>To that end, the &#8220;Most Important Issue in the History of the Universe&#8221; is:</p>
<p>The Story Behind the Story Behind the Story of The Iraq war and September 11, 2001.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Because if you don&#8217;t know Why we aren’t leaving Iraq for at least 100 years and how the twin towers collapsed, you can’t be sure you are waking up the masses from the right dream.</p>
<p>P.S. You can forget about Chris Bollyn’s recent discovery of Super-Termite (nanothermite) at “Israel’s Super-Thermite Lab”.</p>
<p>Bollyn’s thinking reflects the conventional wisdumb of the 9-11 Truthers:</p>
<p>“The main reason for 9-11 was to change the military equation in the Middle East and bring the United States and NATO into the region on a permanent basis to wage war against the foes of Israel.  But how could they possibly think they would get away with such an audacious and heinous crime of false-flag terrorism?”</p>
<p>He then goes on to make the ludicrous statement:</p>
<p>“What they didn’t expect is that a few Americans would dig into the evidence and uncover every stone to find the real culprits.  They certainly didn’t expect that a careful and independent scientific analysis of the dust would reveal that a nano-composite form of super-thermite was used to pulverize the World Trade Center.”</p>
<p><em>“What they didn’t expect is that a few Americans would dig…” I can hardly stop laughing! </em></p>
<p>But when I did stop (laughing) and contacted Andrew Johnson at Check The Evidence, he pointed out:</p>
<p>Q) What is thermite anyway? Answer: Aluminum powder and Iron Oxide (rust).</p>
<p>Fact: The exterior of WTC towers contains aluminum and there were some rusty beams inside the buildings. Therefore we can dismiss any smoking gun theory of super-thermite because you would expect to find Aluminum powder and Iron Oxide in the remains of the World Trade Centre.</p>
<p>Q) What does thermite do to metal? Answer: It melts through it.</p>
<p>Q) What happened to the towers? Answer: They turned largely to dust.</p>
<p>Thermite cannot have been responsible for turning towers to dust.  Let&#8217;s see this nanothermite in action please!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an explosive but the towers didn&#8217;t explode -they turned into a fountain of dust. [3]</p>
<p>[1] 9/11, What’s Wrong With This Picture? http://dprogram.net/2009/03/26/911-whats-wrong-with-this-picture, makes a compelling argument the government wants you to believe “they” did it.</p>

Where are the concrete floors? Where is the office furniture? Where is the office machinery? Where are the filing cabinets? Where is the wall board? Where are the bookcases? They were not there, so most of it appears to have turned to dust, as illustrated in Figure 31. Pulverized to dust, http://www.drjudywood.com/articles/DEW/StarWarsBeam3.html</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recall the baffling news events from November 2009?</p>
<ul>
<li>Is Doomsday Coming? Perhaps, but Not in 2012 [1]</li>
<li>Survey: Nearly half of adults don&#8217;t plan to get H1N1 vaccine</li>
<li>Fort Hood attack likely Islamist terrorism, Cornyn and Lieberman say Al-Qaeda still biggest threat to British security, says Gordon Brown</li>
<li>Al-Qaeda terrorists being trained in Pak: British PM</li>

</ul>
<p>The following will help you understand what’s really going on:</p>
<p>Backwardation is The Powers That Be (TPTB) downward manipulating the precious metals and at the same time keeping investors from being wealthy when everyone else is out of work, out of hope and living in tent cities: This is a <em>Neutral</em> Sign. [2]</p>
<p>When TPTP can no longer keep the precious metals from taking off and the dollar from landing at zero, look out, Mad Max and the breakdown of society is around the corner.</p>
<p>As of November 2009, Google Trends confirms the nuclear war hysteria had just about fallen off the radar screen.</p>
<p>For example, Pakalert &#8220;Escalation Scenarios: The Third World War and Its Aftermath&#8221; and Dr. Strangelove articles were everywhere until the beginning of October…when they faded into the background and the swine flu returned with a vengeance:</p>
<blockquote><p>“President Barack Obama declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency, giving his health chief the power to let hospitals move emergency rooms offsite to speed treatment and protect non-infected patients.” Washington (October 25, 2009)</p></blockquote>
<p>Swine flu instead of a nuclear war?</p>
<p>If TPTB have abandoned a nuclear strategy and returned to the FLU this is an Ominous and <em>Not A Particularly Good Sign</em>.</p>
<p>A World War III that involves most or all nuclear powers, was a <strong>BLUFF. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Environmental Damage And Pollution Are The Goal And Not The Unintended Consequence Of Our Consumer Society</strong></p>
<p>TPTB, armed with the lost knowledge from the ancient world, Atlantis are in a metaphysical struggle to use humans to weaken the earth with environmental damage and pollution. [3]</p>
<p>Sometime between October of 2008 and October 2009, TPTB determined they had LOST the struggle with Mother-Earth and were forced to BLUFF with the <em>threat </em>of a nuclear event. TPTB don’t want World War III because it would make planet uninhabitable.</p>
<p>The Book of Revelation in the Bible describes what happens when TPTB defeat the Earth and there is no nuclear war at Armageddon in the valley of Megiddo:</p>
<blockquote><p>This great slaughter of the Antichrist and his armies will take place in and around the valley of Megiddo near Haifa in Israel. It will mark the end of man&#8217;s cruel rule on earth (the cruel rule responsible for the American Dream, a nightmare for the planet), as Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and His Heavenly forces (TPTB) forcibly take over the World to rule and reign and run it the way it should have been run if man had not disobeyed God (lived in disharmony with the earth) and gone his own selfish way!</p></blockquote>
<p>Should their plan succeed, <em>TPTB believe </em>they will attain immortality in a period known as the New World Order (Millennium), a thousand years of peace and plenty and paradise on Earth for The House of Rothschild, Bilderbergers, CFR and the other secret societies (Global elite, TPTB).</p>
<p>The Anti-Islamic rhetoric, headlines about Al-Qaeda and terrorism “alerts” confirm Albert Pike&#8217;s vision: The Third World War is a depopulation event, not a nuclear holocaust when someone blows up the Dome of the Rock.</p>
<p>Albert Pike received a vision, which he described in a letter he wrote to Mazzini, allegedly dated August 15, 1871. The letter graphically outlined plans for three world wars that were seen as necessary to bring about the One World Order: [4]</p>
<p>Although there is controversy regarding the actual date the letter was written, it could not have been written after World War II and therefore the contents are prophetic:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the &#8220;agentur&#8221; of the &#8220;Illuminati&#8221; between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm … Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Armageddon And The Flu Could Eliminate One-Third Of The Masses </strong></p>
<p>Let’s say one of those radical Christian or Jewish groups plotting to blow up the Dome of the Rock, that magnificent golden domed mosque built on the site of Solomon’s Temple, is successful. Islam’s third holiest shrine stands directly over the most holy Jewish place and is preventing the Messiah from returning to Earth.</p>
<p>According to biblical prophecy, the temple must be rebuilt and sacrifice reinstated before Jesus can come back to earth; the first time for the Jews, the second time for the Christians. No temple = no Messiah.</p>
<p>What would happen if the Dome were to be demolished?</p>
<p>Well, for the first time in history, thanks to Saddam Hussein who drained 60 percent of the wetlands, 200 million people could cross the Euphrates for a holy war in Jerusalem, also known as Armageddon. [5]</p>
<p>Revelation 9:16 describes a hand-to-hand combat <em>not a nuclear event</em> because a Nuclear World War III would make too much of the planet uninhabitable for the One World governors and the 500 million useless eaters they need for slaves when they take over the world. [6]</p>
<p><strong>Do Not Take a Swine Flu Vaccine, It Could Kill You! </strong>[7]<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Remember the last Bird (now Swine) Flu hoax, where the public stampeded to get their worthless dose of Tamiflu and were convinced it was a scare tactic to make Rumsfeld millions?</p>
<p>Well, at the first sign of an epidemic, even without the forced immunization clause in the Patriot Act, the fools will still rush down to get their shot.</p>
<p>Immunization will be based on genome sequencing–a biotechnology that allows doctors to tailor medical treatments to an individual’s genetic profile:</p>
<p>“Here for your shot?”</p>
<p>“Worried about the Bird Flu? Oh of course sit here, roll up your sleeve. Oops, sorry you died.”</p>
<p>“Well I guess it was too late for you; next time, get here sooner!”</p>
<p>Either of these events would get us started on a slow, but orderly road to a population of slaves.</p>
<p>Note: The game is not over, we need figure out what we did before that worked and resume that behavior to help the Earth overcome TPTB!</p>
<p>And yes, it&#8217;s related (according to me) to me “The Most Important Issue in the History of the Universe.” [8]</p>
<p>I know not what course others may take, but as for me if it’s a choice between Nuclear Strategy, Mad Max and the Swine Flu Shot give me <em>Death</em>.</p>

<p>&#8220;Readers who argue that the terms Nazism and Zionism were not known in 1871 should remember that the Illuminati invented both these movements. In addition, Communism as an ideology, and as a coined phrase, originates in France during the Revolution. In 1785, Restif coined the phrase four years before revolution broke out. Restif and Babeuf, in turn, were influenced by Rousseau &#8211; as was the most famous conspirator of them all, Adam Weishaupt.&#8221;</p>
<p>[5] In 1994, 60 percent of the wetlands were destroyed by Saddam Hussein&#8217;s regime. They were drained to permit military access and greater political control of the native Marsh Arabs.

<p>Jean-Jacques Rousseau in his early writing contended that man is essentially good, a &#8220;noble savage&#8221; when in the &#8220;state of nature&#8221; (the state of all the other animals, and the condition man was in before the creation of civilization and society), and that good people are made unhappy and corrupted by their experiences in society. He viewed society as &#8220;artificial&#8221; and &#8220;corrupt&#8221; and that the furthering of society results in the continuing unhappiness of man.</p>
<p>Put another way, in the beginning civilized humans were hunters and gatherers, when we started wearing clothes made out of cotton, using deodorant, living in houses and using toilet paper we became savages.</p>
<p>The only difference between civilized “savages” and 20<sup>th</sup> century man is we used our opposing dumb to conquer Mother Earth.</p>
<p>The indigenous populations knew Nature was not ‘wild’ and hostile but was a benevolent friend. Then, by a twist of organized religious dogma, many began to think humans are the greatest and most important part of creation and they saw Nature as ‘fallen’ and sinful.   Since the end of the “dark age” man has attempted to divorce himself from Nature to the detriment of all creation.</p>
<p><strong>A comet was responsible for the Pleistocene extinctions–not the Clovis hunter</strong></p>
<p><strong>[Note: </strong>The following is either summarized or taken directly from “The Woolly Mammoth and the Noble Savage”, by Louis Proyect<strong>]</strong></p>
<p>The characterization of the indigenous populations as being just as wasteful as a modern corporation is a popular notion among progressives and evolutionary psychologists.</p>
<p>The American Indians, according to this theory, are responsible for driving the bison off cliffs, killing the woolly mammoth and a number of other Pleistocene megafauna.</p>
<p>Paul S. Martin, geosciences professor emeritus, began writing about Pleistocene extinctions and Clovis people’s sole responsibility for the “blitzkrieg” in 1967.  (The Clovis were “paleo-Indians” named after the archaeological site in New Mexico where a characteristic spear point was discovered.)</p>
<p>Jared Diamond, wrote “The Third Chimpanze”, where he embraced the Pleistocene overkill scenario with enthusiasm: Primitive man was nothing more than a marauding ape in Stanley Kubrick’s “2001” who discovered that a bone can be used as a club. [1]</p>
<p>In chapter 17, “The Golden Age that Never Was”, Diamond begins by scoffing at Rousseau’s noble savage and proceeds to demonstrate that the Maori was able to “exterminate” the moa, a flightless bird, that like the mammoth did not understand that man was their enemy.</p>
<p>Diamond writes, “Like the naïve animals of the Galapagos Islands today, moas were probably tame enough for a hunter to walk up to one and club it.” It should be pointed out that <em>probably</em> is a word evolutionary psychologists often use when trying to describe events that took place centuries ago. In the absence of hard evidence (how else can it be otherwise), speculation reigns supreme.</p>
<p>In the next chapter Diamond turns his attention to the New World:</p>
<p>Among the startling discoveries about Clovis people is the speed of their spread and the rapid transformation of Clovis culture. Around 11,000 years ago Clovis points are abruptly replaced by a smaller, more finely made model now known as Folsom points (after a site near Folsom, New Mexico, where they were first identified). The Folsom points are often found associated with bones of an extinct wide-horned bison, never with the mammoths preferred by Clovis hunters…</p>
<p>Despite Diamond’s characteristically triumphalist tone, scientists are by no means unanimous that the first hunters to emerge from the ice-free corridor at Edmonton thrived and multiplied, because they found an abundance of tame, easy-to-hunt big mammals. PBS recently aired a show that put forward a new theory, namely that a comet was responsible for the Pleistocene extinctions–not Clovis hunter. [2]</p>
<p>Skeptics have noted there’s no sign that early hunters preyed on giant ground sloths, short-faced bears, or the massive, armadillo-like glyptodonts or any evidence according to Donald Grayson and David Meltzer (“Overchill”) to lay blame for a continent’s worth of lost megafauna at the foot of the first Americans.</p>
<p>Some of the most compelling political rebuttal to Jared Diamond, comes from Vine Deloria Jr., the American Indian scholar who died in 2005. His “Red Earth, White Lies” is a scholarly and polemical rebuttal of the “overkill” hypothesis:</p>
<p>Clovis-point locations by the common agreement of scholars date to around 12,000 years ago. This enabled “scholars” to argue that “the Indians did it” by linking a few sites which had bones of extinct megafauna and were also dated at that time.</p>
<p>However, this thesis is really applicable only to the herbivores because almost every advocate of the idea cites those locations where mammoth bones are associated with evidence of human activity.</p>
<p>We never hear about the giant rhinoceros, beaver, or armadillo, nor do the scholars refer to carnivore extinction except by indirection, assuming that the extinction of herbivores doomed meat-eating predators.</p>
<p>Can we imagine hungry saber-toothed tigers and other carnivores unable to feed upon the smaller species of deer, moose, and bison when they discovered that the mega-animals had been destroyed?</p>
<p>When the Europeans came to North America the land was filled to overflowing with all manner of edible grazing game. The bison are conservatively estimated at a population of nearly 60 million creatures at the time of discovery.</p>
<p>Since no species could evolve in 12,000 years, we must assume that the game animals we see today were here in their present form at the time when Martin suggests the Paleo-Indians were ruthlessly slaughtering the mammoth and mastodon.</p>
<p>So there are two problems with the Pleistocene overkill scenario.</p>
<ol>
<li>Why did the megacarnivores not pounce upon the smaller, weaker herbivores and maintain themselves in grand style?</li>
<li>Why did the Paleo-Indian hunters not begin with smaller-sized animals, which would have been easier to kill, less dangerous to be around, and which themselves might be relegated to the fringes of the good grazing places by the larger and certainly more dangerous megaherbivores?</li>
</ol>
<p>Paul S. Martin made a feeble effort to answer the second question by admitting that “we must beg the question of just how and why prehistoric man obliterated his prey.</p>
<blockquote><p>We may speculate but we cannot determine how moose, elk, and caribou managed to survive while horse, ground sloth, and mastodon did not.” He begged people not to ask him for specifics about the second question and was not even aware of the complexity of the first question.</p></blockquote>
<p>As is so often the case with indigenous peoples and the scientific community, no matter the best of intentions of the latter, differences over Pleistocene extinctions, Kennewick Man, supposed Anasazi cannibalism, etc. became a political battleground.</p>
<p>Jared Diamond like many of his co-thinkers, has an unhealthy need to establish primitive man as primitive in the sense of  “savage” and is not concerned if it denigrates the reputation of native peoples, his interest in these matters is highly ideological.</p>
<blockquote><p>When Friedrich <em>Engels</em><em> </em>referred to hunting and gathering societies as “primitive”, it was in the technical sense only. Of course, the words “savage” and “barbarian” had unfortunate connotations no matter the intentions of people such as Engels.</p></blockquote>
<p>In seeking to destroy the myth of Rousseau’s “noble savage”, Diamond resorts to the teachings of Thomas Hobbes in “Leviathan”:</p>
<blockquote><p>It may seem strange to some man, that has not well weighed these things; that Nature should thus dissociate, and render men apt to invade, and destroy one another: and he may therefore, not trusting to this Inference, made from the Passions, desire perhaps to have the same confirmed by Experience.  Let him therefore consider with himselfe, when taking a journey, he armes himselfe, and seeks to go well accompanied; when going to sleep, he locks his dores; when even in his house he locks his chests; and this when he knows there bee Lawes, and publike Officers, armed, to revenge all injuries shall bee done him; what opinion he has of his fellow subjects, when he rides armed; of his fellow Citizens, when he locks his dores; and of his children, and servants, when he locks his chests.  Does he not there as much accuse mankind by his actions, as I do by my words?  But neither of us accuse mans nature in it.  The Desires, and other Passions of man, are in themselves no Sin.  No more are the Actions, that proceed from those Passions, till they know a Law that forbids them; which till Lawes be made they cannot know: nor can any Law be made, till they have agreed upon the Person that shall make it.</p></blockquote>
<p>The world of the evolutionary psychologist is dark, evil, and grubby both in the earliest stages of history and in the contemporary world.</p>
<p>Indeed, the best thing that can be said about our evolution is that we have drawn on the power of the state to control our worst instincts.</p>
<p>As Jared Diamond says in his New Yorker article,</p>
<blockquote><p>the Papuan New Guineans practically got down on their hands and knees to thank the colonizers who finally were able to bring peace and stability to the highlands where tribal wars had left so many dead.</p></blockquote>
<p>So bad was the fighting that Diamond was led to conclude that primitive peoples were more genocidal than the Nazis, if not by absolute numbers killed then by percentage.</p>
<p>Of course, given his tendency to make things up, we have no confidence in his assertions. <strong>[</strong>End of excerpt from “The Woolly Mammoth and the Noble Savage”, by Louis Proyect<strong>]</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Conclusion</strong></p>
<p>Louis Proyect’s conclusion on the Pleistocene extinctions and how to transcend the noble savage versus Hobbesian jungle dichotomy reflects his socialist ideology:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Put simply, a hunting and gathering society had little need to kill animals except to satisfy such needs as food, clothing and shelter—all of which a bison could supply.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>On the other hand, capitalism sees all flora and fauna as input to the commodity production process. Today vast trawlers scour the ocean to turn the last bluefin tuna into the last sushi special.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, American Indians struggle to defend their right to fish for Salmon and whales as part of their traditional way of life. Some ecologists can’t distinguish between the trawler and the Makah motorboat, but that would not be the first time in history that an Indian gets a raw deal.”</p></blockquote>
<p>His classic Marx “use values” assumes “the American Indians had no ecological insights or beliefs.</p>
<p>However, American Indians held a special knowledge of the land and its inhabitants and believed they were only a small part of the whole circle of life and that each part of creation played a significant role in the contentment and survival of the other.</p>
<p>They accepted the divine idea that all things were equal and no animal, including man, held dominion over other parts of creation.</p>
<p>American Indians, also known as the People of the Land, traditionally and historically believed, humans were created to be caretakers of the garden &#8212; Mother Earth.  They held all things of creation sacred and respected Nature.</p>
<ul>
<li>Never take more than we need;</li>
<li>Thank Creator for what we have or what we will receive;</li>
<li>Use all of what we have;</li>
<li>Give away what we do not need.</li>
</ul>
<p>They weren’t environmentalists they were <em>communist Pagans</em>.</p>

<p>We have been conditioned from birth to believe that everything wrong in our society is about Greed: The inordinate desire to acquire or possess more than one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth.</p>
<p>However, my research concludes the earth’s environmental damage and pollution was not the result of greed and the unintended consequences of our capitalistic consumer society, but was the goal.</p>
<p>Until the common man became “civilized” he had almost no environmental impact on the earth. Hunters, foragers and gatherers are unable to upset the ecological structures of the planet. [1]</p>
<p>The first civilized societies and their agrarian economies had an environmental impact but the damage was negligible because only 3% of the population, Kings and Lords were consumers.</p>
<p>The earth wasn’t in trouble until the House of Rothschild unleashed the middle class on the planet when they financed and fomented the American and French Revolutions. [2]</p>
<p>Now the Third Estate (97% of the population) was freed to become the consumers of useless and toxic products from the Industrial Revolution.  And thanks to those scoundrels behind the Federal Reserve, former serfs and slaves could now have their own castle with a Sport Utility Pollution Vehicle (SUPV) in the driveway.</p>
<p>The first industrial revolution, the textile industry, based on the one plant that does more damage to the environment than coffee or tobacco…cotton, marked the last time the earth would be in ecological balance. [3]</p>
<p><strong>A Theory of Ecocide Explains the Unexplainable</strong></p>
<p>To support my theory, I point out that the Federal Reserve isn’t evil because they print our money and make us pay interest on the principal.</p>
<p>They are evil because Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan, all connected to the House of Rothschild’s global financial empire, directed the Federal Reserve (until October of 2008) to create money out of thin air to pay for the American Dream, an environmental nightmare for the planet. [4]</p>
<p>These scoundrels, at the beginning of the 20th century owned or controlled 1/6<sup>th</sup> of the world’s <em>real</em> wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold.</p>
<p>And when I write, “So how do they get rich exchanging real wealth for about $500 trillion of the Monopoly money they printed?”</p>
<p>I assume the answer is intuitive because their real wealth has been used up; <em>they</em> are the losers, not the middle class!</p>
<p>And I remind anyone still listening:</p>
<p>Remember those trees we chopped down and mountains we blew up so we could experience unprecedented prosperity for the last 60 years?</p>
<p>All of those resources (raw materials for the American Dream) “now used up”, were once owned or controlled by the scoundrels of our history books.</p>
<p>Their real wealth, not yours or mine has been &#8220;cut, mined and hauled away so consumers could trash the planet with houses, second houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs— the material possessions we associate with the good life that put the planet on the downward spiral to ecocide.</p>
<p>Although this premise first appeared in Dem Bones is Connected To De Debt Bone (published at The Market Oracle and G. Edward Griffins website January 2009 [5]), the Internet is not buzzing about a theory of ecocide, which would explain the failure of public policies, government actions and inactions to protect the environment.</p>
<p>A theory of ecocide would allow hot, flat, and crowded Thomas L. Friedman to know what planet George W. Bush is on. <strong> </strong>Our last president Bush (we hope) wasn’t “stupid” if his goal was Ecocide.<strong> </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>At the G8 summit, Dubya was deadly serious about Ecocide when, after rejecting the global climate change targets of the July 2008 G8 summit, he said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221;</p>
<p>He proposed drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve, which would trash America’s last arctic wilderness. Sonar testing is about torturing whales and dolphins, and the border fence that keeps everything out but the illegals is disrupting an extraordinary source of biological diversity along a 2,000-mile-long region that includes deserts, mangrove forests, plains, mountains, river valleys and wetlands.</p></blockquote>
<p>Bush lost the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq, but is winning the war waged on the environment.</p>
<p>A theory of ecocide is also the solution to the enigma of China’s economic policy, which resulted in every person in the (rich) U.S. borrowing about $4,000 from someone in the (poor) People’s Republic of China. China wanted to be the Air Pollution champion of the world and be able to say &#8220;Goodbye, from the world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221; [6]</p>
<p>Cognitive Dissonance could explain why no one is jumping on a theory of ecocide.</p>
<p>After all, the premise that anyone would intentionally damage the planet, which future generations will inherit, contradicts a strongly held belief system that those responsible would have to live with the polluted air, fouled water and a poisoned food chain. [7]</p>
<p>Recently I debated a “critical thinker” trying to convince her the rich aren’t getting wealthy printing their own Monopoly money.  She articulated what we are conditioned to believe from birth:</p>

<p>“Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.”—JFK.</p>
<p>Our consumer society didn’t just happen, it was planned. Not in 1910, or 1954, but in the year 1832, the year William Huntington Russell and fellow classmate Alphonso Taft at Yale University founded the Skull and Bones society, a branch of the Bavarian Illuminati.</p>
<p>According to most of the available biographical data on its early members, the money required to sustain the secret order&#8217;s campus affairs and its broader role in placing its members into key positions of influence upon their graduation from Yale was derived from the opium trade in the Far East.</p>
<p>Members, known as “Bonesmen,” include Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan all connected to the House of Rothschild’s global financial empire. They are founders of the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, France, and Germany or, for that matter, any central bank anywhere in the world. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913, one of the most important domestic acts in the nation’s history, took the power to create money from the people and gave it to the Bonesmen, in theory, for profit.</p>
<p>Russ Baker&#8217;s new book, “Family of Secrets: the Bush Dynasty, the Powerful Forces That Put It in the White House, And What Their Influence Means for America,&#8221; is about George H. W. Bush’s secret intelligence work with the CIA many years before he became the Agency’s director. Bush Sr. had played a powerful but hidden role in determining the direction of the U.S. government.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s common knowledge that the Bushes sit at the intersection of America&#8217;s business and intelligence communities, but it not so common knowledge that the Bush Family, Bush Sr., Jr. and grandfather Prescott Bush, were all Bonesmen. Prescott Bush’s initiation in 1918 is said to have included robbing the grave of the Native American warrior, Geronimo. Prescott Bush helped Henry Ford, Averell Harriman and others finance Adolph Hitler.</p>
<p>Russ Baker suggests the strong possibility that Bush Sr. was connected to the assassination of President Kennedy because “Lyndon Johnson would be more obedient to Texas oil men.”</p>
<p>A more plausible connection is Abraham Lincoln was killed for the Legal Tender Act of 1862 and Kennedy for Executive Order 11110.  Lincoln’s “greenbacks” would have prevented the Federal Reserve from creating $500 trillion of money out of thin air, money that Warren Buffett and Marketwatch say financed our global consumer society.</p>
<p>And, JFK’s &#8220;United States notes&#8221; backed by silver, which were withdrawn the day he was shot, would have put the Federal Reserve out of business and returned to the Treasury Department the Constitutional power to create and issue a debt-free currency.</p>
<p>Anyone who spoke against the “Creature from Jekyll Island” (Federal Reserve banking cartel exposed by G. Edward Griffin) was silenced. Presidents Garfield and McKinley, outspoken champions of “sound” money and a central bank, were silenced permanently.</p>
<p>In 1908, President William Howard Taft, a second-generation Bonesmen, sent Congress a Constitutional amendment authorizing the Federal Income Tax, the foundation for the Federal Reserve System that was signed into law furtively by Taft’s successor, Woodrow Wilson, on Christmas Eve of 1913.</p>
<p>Robert Owens, a co-author of the income tax act, later testified that the banking industry had conspired to create a series of financial panics throughout the 19th century in order to rouse the people to demand “reforms” that served the interests of the financiers. The public became convinced that the country needed a central banking system to stop future panics, and helped the Bonesmen pass legislation that allowed  the nation’s money to be issued by a private central bank.</p>
<p>The Rothschild Brothers of London observed, &#8220;The few who understand the (Federal Reserve) system will either be so interested from its profits or so dependent on its favors, that there will be no opposition from that class.”</p>
<p>In 1980 Ronald Reagan is elected president of the United States and he and George H. W. Bush move into the White House.</p>
<p>Two weeks after taking office, Reagan addressed the nation on the economy.</p>
<p>&#8220;By 1960 our national debt stood at $284 billion. Today the debt is $934 billion. We can leave our children with an un-repayable massive debt and a shattered economy, or we can leave them liberty in a land where every individual has the opportunity to be whatever God intended us to be. Together we can forge a new beginning for America.”</p>
<p>In the same speech Reagan displays his innocence of Federal Reserve politics, “Now, in all of this we will, of course, work closely with the Federal Reserve System toward the objective of a stable monetary policy.”</p>
<p>On March 26, 1981 Reagan signs Executive Order 12301 establishing the Presidential Council on Integrity &amp; Efficiency to review federal programs for inefficiencies and corruption.</p>
<p>Predictably, four days later, the Federal Reserve and H.W. Bush “works with” John Hinckley Jr. to instruct Reagan on the first lesson of Federal Reserve politics. A president can be more popular than the vice president, but not always more powerful.</p>
<p>Although the Bush and Hinckley family had long, close ties overlooked by the press— the brother of the man who tried to kill the president was acquainted with the son of the man who would have become president if the attack had been successful—the family connection between Scott Hinckley and Neil Bush did not escape Alexander Haig, who, after the Reagan assassination attempt, temporarily prevented Vice President Bush from taking control of the White House.</p>
<p>Reagan learned the lesson: he was a figurehead relegated to witnessing the growth of America’s hyper-consumer society and national debt from the sidelines.</p>
<p>Directly and indirectly, the Bonesmen orchestrated the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s and the dot-com and the housing market bubbles.</p>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that has found its way into the history books and the writings of economic experts is that somehow these men were made wealthier from the Monopoly money they printed, the same money that enabled consumers to buy houses, second houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs, i.e. the cheap “stuff” we use on a daily basis. Let’s not forget the fact that in 1910 these men already controlled one-sixth of the world’s wealth. And that was real wealth—gold, silver and raw materials—not the fiat currency we call money. Don’t forget the world they owned and controlled in 1910 had a mostly balanced ecology.</p>
<p>The Skull and Bones society and the Federal Reserve were critical to the growth of our industrial and consumer society, but responsible for much of the financial and environmental damage done to the planet.</p>
<p>We perceive our Country as a constitutional republic, a government representative of the people and accountable to them; but it now seems that premise is nothing more than an illusionary, sentimental belief.</p>

<p>The end of our consumer society is on the horizon, which should be no surprise to anyone who took Economics 101. Do we really expect to spend our way out of this mess by buying and selling each other useless cheap stuff from China?</p>
<p>As the financial collapse gathers steam, gold and silver oracles like Butler, Friedman, Morgan and Turk who have been predicting for years the launch of the price of silver to the moon will see their prophecy fulfilled, but a celebration is not in order.</p>
<p>Being wealthy during the last 60 years of unprecedented prosperity at the expense of the Third World and the environment is one thing, but profiting from a bull market in silver when millions of hungry Americans are living in tent-cities next door is quite another.</p>
<p>A default at the Comex that will ignite the explosion in the price of silver and gold is in progress. Investors turned away from the bullion and coin dealers who refuse to sell silver at the $9 paper price opened commodity futures brokerage accounts.  They hope to take delivery of the real thing&#8211;silver bars with serial numbers&#8211;at the manipulated price of $9 an ounce before the Comex has to shut down and admit they never had enough real silver.</p>
<p>Silver delivery at $9 per ounce is courtesy of The Shorts, the largest concentrated short position by four or less dealers in financial history.</p>
<p>Ted Butler, a brilliant researcher, has been writing about the concentrated short position in silver for years and initially thought the default at Comex would come when the dealers ran out of liquidity, but his research suggested otherwise: “Even when holding extremely large short positions and incurring massive unrealized paper losses, measuring in the many hundreds of millions of dollars, the dealers have never collectively turned tail and bought back their short positions to the upside.”</p>
<p>Shorts to Comex and the regulators: The dramatic price decline in August from $21 to $9 is our parting gift to you for looking the other way during our obvious manipulation of prices in the War on Precious Metals. We had to prevent gold and silver from gaining legitimacy as stores of value or consumerism would not have become hyper-consumerism. Mopping up our mess will be easier at $9 instead of $21.</p>
<p>The Comex maintains a guarantee fund and insurance policy to meet a clearing member default, but it has only about $250 million, which is insufficient to cover the losses, but imagine a default at $50 or more per ounce.</p>
<p>Why has the price of silver historically been suppressed, stuck for years in the $4 to $5 trading range?</p>
<p>The downward price manipulation of silver caused by the excessive and uneconomic short position on the Comex has been the subject of most of Butler’s research. His explanation for market fluctuations are often greed-and-profit but he just as often contradicts himself and writes:  “It is my contention that this uniquely large and concentrated short position in silver explains why the price is still cheap. Therefore, in spite of the open losses the shorts are experiencing and the great profits accruing to silver investors, the price manipulation is still in place.” James R. Cook, president of Investment Rarities, credits Ted Butler for the vast majority of investment silver purchased in the past seven years, but when Cook asks the obvious question, “Isn’t the manipulated downward price consistent with a strategy to encourage the purchase of silver?”, Ted is unable to provide a greed-and-profit motive and repeats what has become his mantra,  “My main motive has been and still remains doing what I can to end this manipulative crime in progress.”</p>
<p>It is manipulative and it is a crime, but Ted Butler is unable to consistently support a profit motive because there isn’t one. The Puppet Masters manipulate the paper price of the precious metals downward to prevent gold and silver from gaining legitimacy as stores of value instead of the fiat currencies we call money.</p>
<p>Behind every consumer society is the reality of a credit-based monetary system and a fiat currency.  There is not enough gold and silver in the world to back the trillions of dollars required for the industrial revolution and the global consumer economy. Behind every fiat currency is a Federal Reserve or a Central Bank controlled by the same men: Rothschild, Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb, and Ted Butler’s prime suspect in the “ongoing intentional not accidental” great crime of keeping the price of silver low so investors can “buy a lot more metal”: JP Morgan Chase. &#8220;The paper margin calls and technical selling in silver was intentionally planned and forced on us by those who held big short positions.”</p>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that found its way into the history books and the writings of economic experts is that somehow these men were made wealthier from the Monopoly money they printed, the same money that enabled consumers to buy houses, cars, furniture and electronics, i.e. the cheap “stuff” we use on a daily basis. Recall that in 1910 these men already controlled one-sixth of the entire world’s wealth, and it was real wealth: gold, silver and raw materials in a world before we had a “throw away&#8221; mentality and the planet’s ecological structures were still in balance.</p>
<p>The Federal Reserve puppet masters orchestrated the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s and the dot-com and the housing market bubbles, all of which resulted in unprecedented prosperity.</p>
<p>Consumers can thank the puppet masters for all that “stuff” they have because as Ron (sound money) Paul puts it,  “Our current system gives us a free ride, our paper (fiat) buys cheap goods from overseas, and foreigners risk all by financing our extravagance.”</p>
<p>Thank them also for the unprecedented environmental damage and pollution caused by our hyper-consumer society.</p>
<p>We have consumed the resources of our planet; and it’s time for a change to a sustainable, non-consumer society. When people still had jobs and weren’t scared to go shopping, I recommended The Story of Stuff but, thanks to the financial meltdown, consumerism is on the way out, so now the video to watch is the sequel:  The Power of Community – How Cuba Survived Peak Oil.</p>

Because, if you accepted the new information, you would have to admit you been ”had,” or ”conned,” in this case into shopping for stuff to trash the planet.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">The benefit of the new information is that the world around you will finally make sense. Hot, flat, and crowded Thomas L. Friedman will finally know what planet George W. Bush is on. Bush lost the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq, but is winning the war on the environment.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">At this point, it is advantageous to consider the efforts of writer Andrew Hitchcock, author of <em>The History of the House of Rothschild</em>.:</p>
<p style="text-align: left">&#8220;The Rothschilds have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives, and are the hidden hand behind all the social cataclysms in history.”</p>
<p style="text-align: left">The French and American Revolution, the Civil War, World Wars, the Industrial Revolution, the Federal Reserve and our consumer society. Rothschild policies include “total ruthlessness” and as Frederic Morton writes in the Preface to “The Rothschild’s,” “For the last one hundred and fifty years, the history of the House of Rothschild has been to an amazing degree the backstage history of Western Europe&#8230;. The overwhelming success of the Rothschild’s lay in their willingness to do what had to be done.”</p>
<p style="text-align: left">What follows is the history that has been intentionally left out of our textbooks. The historical research by Toqueville, Chartier and Hitchcock if examined without prejudice supports a <em>prima facie</em> case that the House of Rothschild orchestrated the French and American Revolutions to create the middle class (consumers) for the purpose of trashing the planet.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">Our last President Bush, connected to the House of Rothschild Global Financial Empire, was deadly serious when, after rejecting the global climate change targets of the July 2008 G8 summit, he said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221; [1]</p>
</blockquote>
<p>“Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.”   John F. Kennedy</p>
<p>In the early 20th century historians (such as Charles Beard), looking for the social forces they thought controlled history, emphasized industrialization and urbanization. These were forces unleashed by the industrial revolution and the textile industry. [2] By the mid 20th century, attention turned to the broader concept of &#8220;modernization,&#8221; which included industrialization, urbanization, psychological changes and changes in values. Eric Hobsbawm called &#8220;modernization” (Consumerism), &#8220;probably the most important event in human history.”</p>
<p><strong>Consumerism Needs the Middle Class</strong></p>
<p>If you were living in the 18<sup>th</sup> century looking for humans to consume the resources of the planet where would you find them?</p>
<p>Answer: 95-97percent of the population of Feudal Society. The “Third Estate” had  potential consumers but first they would need to be “enlightened” with a philosophy and movement based on respect for the dignity of man, concern for his welfare, and the creation of favorable conditions for a just social life.</p>
<p>Men began to think government was not something kings exercised by divine right and then Maximilien Robespierre started the French Revolution. The order was given to Robespierre in book form by Rothschild’s agent Adam Weishaupt and his associate Xavier Zwack. [3]</p>
<p>At the beginning of the Revolution, Kings, Monarchs and the despots of our history books held supreme power; by the time it ended, the human rights movement replaced centuries of tyranny and oppression for the common man.</p>
<p>Is that possible?</p>
<p>Revisionists are still trying to explain why the despots of our history books wouldn’t use the Guillotine to dispense with such a heretical movement.</p>
<p>Roger Chartier writes in <em>The Cultural Origins of The French Revolution</em>,  the popular notion that the Enlightenment caused the Revolution makes the mistake of <em>post hoc ergo propter hoc</em> &#8211; &#8220;after the fact, therefore because of the fact.&#8221; Thus, Chartier and other historians claim it was the French Revolution that made the Enlightenment.</p>
<p>The Declaration of the Rights of Man is often seen as the quintessential Enlightenment document but the declaration called for a meritocratic social order, not an egalitarian one. Equality was conspicuously absent.</p>
<p>The revisionists are consistent in dismissing the Marxist interpretation, but without a 20<sup>th</sup> century perspective on environmental damage they have no systemic theory explaining the events in late 18th century France. Ecocide was a pivotal and necessary part of the Rothschild plan for a New World Order.</p>
<p><strong>Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité </strong></p>
<p>In the summer of 1789 when France rose up in revolt it wasn’t over intellectual, social or political issues; it was food. The country was in the midst of a famine caused by abnormal weather.</p>
<p>The common man was having trouble developing his natural talent and potential because he was hungry.</p>
<p>&#8220;The French Revolution will only be the darkness of night to those who see it in isolation; only the times which preceded it will give the light to illuminate it.&#8221; The whole social edifice of Ancien Regime France collapsed at a single blow, and the fact that this was in the midst of one of the worst El Niño episodes of the millennium is something that should be taken into account when examining this history.”, de Tocqueville 1952, p. 249</p>
<p>September 11, 1814 should be examined as well. [4]</p>
<p>The rise of humanism and the social injustices in the 18<sup>th</sup> century did not create the revolutionary brew that saw the overthrow of the French monarchy. The House of Rothschild and the weather changed the course of history.</p>
<p>When the French government on the verge of bankruptcy from the seven years wars was unable to provide famine relief, public frustration erupted into violent demonstrations and the French Revolution.</p>
<p>Of course most despots would call for an inquisition and blame the peasants for the worst El Niño episode in history.</p>
<p>In 1795 when the people rebelled against a provision of the National Convention, Napoleon simply fired “a whiff of grape shot” into the mob, and the rebellion was over. [5]</p>
<p>Why did the House of Rothschild allow the revolution to succeed?</p>
<p>Answer: There were not enough consumers in the First and Second Estates in 18<sup>th</sup> century Feudal Society to weaken the planet.</p>
<p><strong>The House of Rothschild Global Financial Empire</strong></p>
<p>The vast accumulation of wealth, financial and natural resources of the House of Rothschild is legendary.</p>
<p>&#8220;And there was no news more precious than the (predetermined) outcome at Waterloo&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>Considered the turning point in history, exploiting the Battle of Waterloo gave the Rothschild family complete financial control of Europe, and soon after, the world.  England would set up a new Bank of England, with Nathan Mayer Rothschild in control.</p>
<p>According to one source in the late 1800s, when the planet was still in ecological balance, &#8220;it was estimated the House of Rothschild controlled almost half the wealth of the world” [6]</p>
<p>That would be <em>real </em>wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, copper, silver and gold.</p>
<p>How much are they worth today?</p>
<p>Almost half of the world&#8217;s<em> fiat</em> wealth about $500 trillion of the fiat currency (monopoly money) they created out of thin air to finance our consumer society. [7]</p>
<p>And their real wealth, where is it now?</p>
<p>Used up, as in consumed, by the middle class so former members of the Third Estate (serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs—the affordable things we take for granted which put the planet on the bridge to Ecocide.</p>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that found its way into the history books and the writings of economic experts, is that somehow the International Bankers (swindlers and scoundrels of history) were made wealthier accumulating the monopoly money they printed.</p>
<p>The swindlers and scoundrels wealth, not yours or mine, was eventually “cut, mined and hauled away,” so that Americans could have that cheap stuff that is currently “trashing the planet”.</p>
<p>During the last 100 years those swindlers were able to distort the structure of relative prices; generate misallocations of labor and capital throughout the economy; rationalize new governmental interventions in the face of the market &#8220;instability&#8221; manipulate the patterns of and the profits from international trade which resulted in the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s, the dot-com and the housing market bubbles…which resulted in unprecedented prosperity for the middle class… and $500 trillion of monopoly money for the House of Rothschild.</p>
<p>Did Woodrow Wilson “ruin his country” when he signed The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and made the middle class prosperous beyond precedent in the most powerful nation in the world?</p>
<p>Yes, because prosperous beyond precedent was unprecedented environmental damage for the planet.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><strong>Capitalism never made sense unless the goal was ecocide.</strong></p>
<p>The ideal and the principle of the market economy of Capitalism was never fulfilled.</p>
<p>What is called capitalism is a distorted, twisted and deformed system of increasingly limited market relationships as well as market processes hampered and repressed by state controls and regulations. And overlaying this entire system are the ideologies of 18th-century mercantilism, 19th-century socialism, and 20th-century welfare statism.</p>
<p>Professor Ebeling, the Ludwig von Mises professor of Economics at Hillsdale College, understood something was wrong when he wrote: “the perverse development and evolution of historical capitalism, the institutions necessary for a truly free-market economy have been either undermined or prevented from emerging.”</p>
<p>But when he claimed, “it is the principles and the meaning of a free-market economy that must be rediscovered” in order to overcome the burden of historical capitalism and save liberty, He should have written principles must be rediscovered<em> in order to save the planet from ecocide</em>.</p>
<p>It didn’t matter if we listened to Keynes, Friedman or Mises; or for that matter anyone from the Rothschild-funded Austrian School of Economics, consumerism never made economic, environmental, or common sense. [8]</p>
<p>Even conscious consumers consume, as in use up the resources of the planet.</p>
<p><strong>Revolution</strong></p>
<p>The American and French Revolutions<strong> </strong>made consumers out of 97% of the population who could now afford, thanks to those scoundrels behind the Federal Reserve, their own castle with all the furnishings and a two-car garage for their mobile pollution devices – the personal automobile. [9]</p>
<p>Let me repeat, since 1910 the House of Rothschild and the Rockefellers have exchanged their real wealth for 600 trillion of fiat currency (monopoly money) they printed so former members of the Third Estate (serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs—the “stuff” which put the planet on the bridge to Ecocide.</p>
<p>The only thing dumber is when a poor person in the People’s Republic of China loans about $4,000 to everyone in the (rich) USA. [10]</p>

<p>[1] If “trashing the planet” was his military objective, our last President Bush was not stupid, but a brilliant commander-in-chief waging an all-out war on biodiversity, animals and rainforests. He wanted to drill in the ANWR to trash America’s last Arctic Wilderness. Sonar Testing is about torturing whales and dolphins. And the Border Fence that keeps everything out but illegal’s will disrupt an extraordinary source of biological diversity along the 2,000-mile long region.</p>
<p>[2] By 1850 the United States following the lead of England built their own industrial revolution around textiles.  There arose a great demand for the one crop that does more damage to the environment than planting coffee or even tobacco… Cotton. Today, our planet is in desperate trouble. Earth is suffocating as large tracts of rain forests disappear. Pollution, poisons and chemicals are killing the planet. These problems could have been avoided if the British textile industry hadn’t “suddenly” discovered Cotton.</p>

<p>August 21, theatres around the nation screened the documentary I.O.U.S.A. and a live discussion with America’s most notable financial leaders and policy experts, including Warren Buffett; William Niskanen, chairman of the Cato Institute; Pete Peterson, senior chairman of The Blackstone Group and former U.S. Comptroller General, Dave Walker.</p>
<p>August 25, Mr. William Niskanen, CEO of the Cato Institute, confirmed his remarks on the I.O.U.S.A. post-broadcast panel discussion.</p>
<blockquote><p>Dear Mr. Singer,</p>
<p>I do not have a tape of my remarks last Thursday evening. As I remember, however, I expressed being puzzled why the central banks of China, Japan, and South Korea have continued to invest so much in U.S. Treasury securities.  For these central banks have earned a negative real return on these securities, for which the interest rate has been lower than the depreciation of the dollar.</p>
<p>I would value your judgment about this puzzle… William A. Niskanen</p></blockquote>
<p>China is a “Hot Topic” at the nationally and internationally recognized Center for Trade Policy at Mr. Niskanen’s Cato Institute, but the research staff has been unable to find a political, diplomatic, military or economic solution to the China puzzle, because there isn’t one.</p>
<p>China’s economic policy is an enigma that would baffle Ludwig von Mises and Karl Marx. The answer to the Chinese enigma: China is now the Air Pollution champion of the world.</p>
<p>No country in history has emerged as a major industrial power without creating a legacy of environmental damage. But just as the speed and scale of China’s rise as an economic power have no clear parallel in history, its pollution problem has shattered all records as well.</p>
<p>China’s environmental degradation is so severe it has become the world’s problem. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides spewed by China’s coal-fired power plants fall as acid rain on Seoul, South Korea, Tokyo and according to the Journal of Geophysical Research, much of the particulate pollution over Los Angeles originates in China.</p>
<p>Chinese officials, before and after the Tiananmen Square massacre, pretend to pursue economic development and industrialization for the benefit of their population, but in spite of the glitter of China’s big cities and the rise of its billionaire class, the vast majority of the Chinese people are repressed, working in slave labor camps and living in poverty.</p>
<p>The path China took to industrialization was unusual.  John Watson, Professor at Reno-based Desert Research Institute, notes: “They&#8217;re making a lot of the same mistakes we made in our air pollution history. You can just see the parallels: they&#8217;re building more highways and encouraging more sprawl.”</p>
<p><strong>Mistakes?  Consider the Communists First Five-Year Plan</strong></p>
<p>When Communism became the ideology of the people in 1949, they fought pollution during the successful First Five-Year Plan from 1953-57 and were moving towards 100% recycling until 1958 when the Great Leap Forward became the Great Leap Famine and between 16.5 million and 40 million people died before the experiment came to an end in 1961.</p>
<p>During the Five-Year Plan, Chinese articles and journals extolled the benefits of recycling. “When a case of pollution arose, there was scientific and collective action to undo the damage. The most harmful industrial wastewater is that which contains phenol. If this kind of poisonous industrial water is drained into a body of water (such as a river, lake, or sea) before treatment, it will pollute the water, kill the fish, and endanger the health of the people. And if such poisonous waste water is drained into the farmland, it will badly affect the normal growth of the crops.”</p>
<p>The “Mistakes” explanation requires you believe no one in China read or studied the industrialization of the Western Countries. “Cost-benefit analyses in the U.S. show that emission reduction programs have provided much greater benefits than their costs, by a ratio of up to 40 to 1. Air pollution damage not only impacts the ecosystem but imposes major economic costs as well as, from premature mortality, increased health care and lost productivity and, more importantly, decreased crop yields.”</p>
<p><strong>Air Pollution thick as Pea Soup</strong></p>
<p>A World Bank study found China is home to 16 of the world’s 20 worst cities for air quality. Three-quarters of the water flowing through urban areas is unsuitable for drinking or fishing.</p>
<p>Pea-soup air in Beijing is caused in part by a sudden switch from bicycles to automobiles as a means of transportation. With nearly 156 million motor vehicles, bicycles are no longer welcome in cities that are being rebuilt to accommodate automobiles.</p>
<p>China’s bike lanes have been sacrificed in the name of road and highway construction. In the Fujian province, Chinese city and regional officials went so far as to ban electric bicycles because they were worried “the lead-acid batteries are an environmental risk, and that the use of electric bikes undercuts the use of public transit.” Both arguments apply far better to automobiles, but automobiles are encouraged and riding a bicycle without a license can get you arrested.</p>
<p><strong>Following Western Pollution’s Footsteps</strong></p>
<p>The U.S. also sacrificed mass transit in the 1930’s when the National City Lines (NCL) converted the nation into an automobile-dependent society by dismantling most streetcar systems throughout the United States.</p>
<p>John D. Rockefeller, the #1 wealthiest man in all recorded history, was a founding member of the NCL holding company and our “Federal” Reserve Bank.  Under the ruse of Christian temperance, he gave $4 million to a group of old ladies, and the temperance movement was no longer about drinking alcohol but about the knob on the dashboard of the Model T.</p>
<p>The knob allowed the driver to adjust the fuel-air mixture for either alcohol (ethanol) or gas. Henry Ford said that alcohol was “a cleaner, nicer, better fuel for automobiles than gasoline.”  Ironically, no one followed Henry’s advice until 2000 when George W. Bush subsidized Archer Daniels Midland to burn up, according to the distinguished McKnight University Professor C. Ford Runge, enough calories to feed one person for a year every time we fill up the 25-gallon tank in our SUV.</p>
<p>The Federal Reserve and John D. were behind our automobile-dependent consumer society and the outlawing of the production and sale of alcohol. John D. was a notorious “robber baron”, so we naturally assume his motivation was greed and profit.</p>
<p>But Rockefeller, known as a brilliant businessman and visionary, already owned or controlled most of the world at the end of the 19th century and as a member of the Federal Reserve he understood no one gets wealthier printing their own Monopoly money.</p>
<p>Therefore, if profits were the motive of the world’s richest man &#8211; John D. would have bought up all of the farmland in the United States or for that matter all of the farmland in the world, so he could really control the knob on the Model T.</p>
<p>Then Henry Kissinger’s quote would have been: “Control ethanol you control nations and people”</p>
<p>Rockefeller and the Federal Reserve were critical to our fossil fueled industrial and consumer society, but that also made them responsible for much of the environmental damage done to the planet.</p>
<p>China’s leaders and their Central Bank were critical to the unprecedented growth of the Chinese economy that benefited the West, but replacing bicycles with automobiles is responsible for much of the environmental damage done to the East, West, North and South.</p>
<p>The vast trade surplus of $1.4 trillion and counting, a result of official Chinese government intervention to depress the Renminbi (RMB), is that every person in the (rich) U.S. has borrowed about $4,000 from someone in the (poor) People’s Republic of China so the Chinese economy can produce the most environmental damage in our history.</p>
<p><strong>Our last president Bush wasn’t “stupid” if his goal was Ecocide. </strong></p>
<p>All too often we see the result of failed public policies, government actions and inactions, and conclude the leadership is inept, arrogant or just “stupid.”</p>
<p>At the G8 summit, George W. Bush said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.” He proposed drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve, which would trash America’s last arctic wilderness. Sonar testing is about torturing whales and dolphins, and the border fence that keeps everything out but the illegals is disrupting an extraordinary source of biological diversity along a 2,000-mile-long region that includes deserts, mangrove forests, plains, mountains, river valleys and wetlands.</p>
<p><strong>Chinese officials are worried about their people eating…meat</strong></p>
<p>On November 11, 2008, NPR aired the story: “Chinese Government Fights Recession,” where Beijing’s correspondent Anthony Kuhn reports:  “there is a lot of worry in the government that ordinary Chinese were not going to be able to afford to eat meat.”</p>
<p>In 1980, when China’s population was still under one billion, the average Chinese ate 20kg (44lbs) of meat. Last year (2007), with an additional 300 million people, it was 54kg.</p>
<p>Promoting meat in the world’s highest populous country and diverting grain to fatten animals will be,  “the end of self-sufficiency for China,” says James Rice, Chief of China Operations for Tyson Foods. “This year will be the last in which China produces enough corn for itself, and the last that it is self-sufficient in protein.”</p>
<p>The editors of World Watch state that “the human appetite for animal flesh is a driving force behind virtually every major category of environmental damage now threatening the human future—deforestation, erosion, fresh water scarcity, air and water pollution, climate change, biodiversity loss, social injustice, the destabilization of communities and the spread of disease.”</p>
<p>Lee Hall, the legal director for Friends of Animals, is more succinct: “Behind virtually every great environmental complaint there’s milk and meat.”</p>
<p>Automobiles milk and meat are the answer to the Chinese enigma; <em>China is on the bridge to ecocide.</em></p>

<p>Maybe it’s the smoke from Mt. Vesuvius that keeps Arianna Huffington and the financial community from seeing that the economic collapse has nothing to do with the Fed &#8220;missing&#8221; the warning signs leading up to the October meltdown.</p>
<p>“Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.”   John F. Kennedy</p>
<p>The Fed didn’t miss anything; the October meltdown was an inside job.</p>
<p><strong>Capitalism never made sense</strong></p>
<p>Professor Ebeling, the Ludwig von Mises professor of Economics at Hillsdale College, understood something was wrong when he wrote: &#8220;the perverse development and evolution of historical capitalism, the institutions necessary for a truly free-market economy have been either undermined or prevented from emerging.&#8221;</p>
<p>But when he claimed, &#8220;it is the principles and the meaning of a free-market economy that must be rediscovered&#8221; in order to overcome the burden of historical capitalism and save liberty, he should have written that principles must be rediscovered in order to prevent the planet from attempted murder (ecocide).</p>
<p>American &#8220;capitalism&#8221; and our consumer economy never made economic, environmental or common sense—unless the goal was ecocide.</p>
<p>Capitalism and a not-so-free market economy based on consumer products, that is, products we are manipulated to want, not need, was never sustainable. Consumers consume…the resources of the planet.</p>
<p><strong>Who is responsible?</strong></p>
<p>Arianna said it’s time to &#8220;recognize the natural order of things: that is, the very people responsible for the economic collapse not only are still in power, but are still lining their pockets with outrageous windfalls &#8212; courtesy of the American taxpayer.”</p>
<p>The people responsible for the October collapse, our Federal Reserve, also get credit for the windfalls of “Monopoly Money”, created out of thin air, which financed our consumer society.</p>
<p>They are the private credit monopoly of rich and predatory moneylenders that “prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves.” [1]<strong></strong></p>
<p>For the Benefit of the “middle class” is a more accurate statement.</p>
<p>Those predatory moneylenders gave the middle class the highest standard of living in the world.</p>
<p>Recall when the American economy appeared headed into a recession at the end of the dot-com bubble, the Federal Reserve began slashing short- term interest rates until they reached a historically low one percent. The move re-inflated the economy by allowing homeowners to extract $750 billion in equity from their homes—up from $106 billion in 1996—and apply the dollars toward a multitude of consumer items and other credit card debt.</p>
<p>As interest rates plummeted and alleged home equity artificially soared, buyers were able to afford first and second homes, and they did it by taking out risky mortgages with &#8220;teaser rates&#8221; similar to those offered by the credit card industry. Even as interest rates adjusted upward, the sponsoring banks used complicated financial derivatives to resell the risky mortgages as &#8220;asset-backed paper.&#8221;</p>
<p>As housing prices edged downward and mortgage rates inched upward, the recession was put on hold with the help of an astonishing 10 to 12 credit card offers per month being delivered to some consumer mailboxes. The credit card companies issued 1.5 billion cards to 158 million cardholders and promised an improbable zero percent interest—some deals for up to 18 months. (Similar to mortgage debt, the credit card debt is put into pools also known as derivatives that are then resold to investment houses, other banks and institutional investors.)</p>
<p>Thank those rich and predatory moneylenders for the short-term interest rates and the liquidity that allowed the debt to be pooled, sold and resold.</p>
<p>But blame them because our hyper-shopping has wreaked havoc on the planet.</p>
<p><strong>Who is Behind the Federal Reserve?</strong></p>
<p>Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan—all connected to the House of Rothschild’s global financial empire, direct the Federal Reserve to create money out of thin air.</p>
<p>The process that the Federal Reserve, or any bank, uses to create money “consists of making an entry in a book, that is all,” said Graham Towers, governor of the Bank of Canada. “Each and every time a bank makes a loan (a debt) . . . new bank credit is created—brand new money.”</p>
<p>Money used to pay for the Industrial Revolution, orchestrate the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s and the dot-com and the housing market bubbles, all of which resulted in 60 years of unprecedented prosperity for the middle class.</p>
<p>These scoundrels, all connected to the House of Rothschild, at the beginning of the 20th century, owned or controlled one-sixth of the world’s <em>real</em> wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold.</p>
<p>So how do they get rich exchanging real wealth for about $500 trillion of the Monopoly money they printed?</p>
<p>They don’t, <em>they</em> are the losers, not the middle class!</p>
<p>Remember those trees we chopped down so just about anyone in America could afford their dream house, or those mountains we blew up so we could have that fat station wagon in our driveway? All of those resources “now used up”, were once owned or controlled by the scoundrels of our history books.</p>
<p>Their real wealth, not yours or mine has been &#8220;cut, mined and hauled away so Americans could trash the planet with houses, second houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs— the cheap stuff we associate with the good life that put the planet on the downward spiral to ecocide.</p>
<p>The middle class should be thanking those scoundrels for all that &#8220;stuff&#8221;—but blame them for conning us into trashing the planet.</p>
<p><strong>The Story of Stuff</strong></p>
<p>The Story of Stuff, an animated video about the underside of our consumer society, believes the scoundrels are a bloated corporation sporting a top hat with a dollar sign etched on its front.</p>
<p>Film narrator, Annie Leonard argues our environmental damage is the result of the greedy corporations externalizing costs (shift them onto the public and the environment) so they can make more money.</p>
<p>But that premise is contradicted on film when Annie stands in line to buy a radio for $4.99 and correctly realizes the price couldn’t possibly capture the cost of the radio but <em>incorrectly </em>concludes that the greedy corporations pollute the environment so they can make more profit. [2]</p>
<p>If profits were the motive, then why wasn’t the radio $5.99?  A price anyone would consider a &#8220;throw away&#8221; or loss leader.</p>
<p>We have come to believe that everything wrong in America is about someone getting rich while we are getting swindled.</p>
<p>That our economy runs on profits is a true statement, but imagine how much those moneygrubbers would have made if the radio was $5.99.</p>
<p>That $1.00 would be 100% pure profit.</p>
<p>The swindlers and scoundrels downward-manipulate the costs, that is, they manipulate the prices lower, not higher as you would expect, so the corporations can still make a profit selling you a radio for $4.99. [3]</p>
<p>Annie should be asking herself why those scoundrels intentionally sold their raw materials cheaply so just about everyone could afford the American Dream, a nightmare for the Planet.</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Results in Cognitive Dissonance</strong></p>
<p>The premise that anyone would intentionally damage the planet, which future generations will inherit, results in Cognitive Dissonance (CD). CD is the discomfort felt at the discrepancy between what you already know or believe, and new information or interpretation that contradicts a strongly held belief system.</p>
<p>But what if the murder of the environment was the goal from the beginning and not the unintended consequence, then we were &#8220;conned&#8221; into shopping for stuff to intentionally weaken the planet? [4]</p>
<p>Now the world around you will finally make sense.</p>
<p>Hot, flat, and crowded Thomas L. Friedman will finally know what planet George W. Bush is on.</p>
<p>Bush lost the war on terrorism and the war in Iraq, but is winning the war waged on the environment.</p>
<p>Dubya was deadly serious about Ecocide when, after rejecting the global climate change targets of the July 2008 G8 summit, he said, &#8220;Goodbye, from the (then) world&#8217;s biggest polluter.&#8221; [5]</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Eliminates the Stupid Explanations</strong></p>
<p>We see the collapse of GM and Chrysler as the result of failed public policy, government action, inaction and conclude the leadership is inept, arrogant or just &#8220;stupid&#8221; because only Ecocide could explain an industry that failed to keep up with the competition and adjust to new market demands.</p>
<p>Did Detroit forget the Volkswagen Beetle was the most successful car in history?</p>
<p>An incredible 21,529,464 Beetles were produced with the same body style and the same taillight. [6]</p>
<p>The policies and decisions for the last 31 years aren’t inept or stupid if the goal was pollution.</p>
<p>The Beetle as a mobile pollution device was a failure. Its effects on the environment were minimal compared to the Detroit lineup of egocentric gas-guzzlers, all designed with a different taillight and eco-unfriendly accessories.</p>
<p>The “Evil” Federal Reserve made sure that shiny new automobile with the V8 engine, chrome wheels and bumpers was so cheap just about everyone in America could afford the mobile pollution device of their dreams.</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Explains Why Alaska is in the Picture</strong></p>
<p>Most analysts point to the oil shock of the mid-1970s, set off by the Arab oil embargo of 1973 as the turning point for the US economy and automobile industry.</p>
<p>Why didn’t our then-President Richard Nixon and the rest of the U.S. government promote mass transit, renewable energy, and high-mileage vehicles?</p>
<p>Because the objective that makes the most sense was to disturb 800 miles of the most pristine country in Alaska with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline.</p>
<p>In 2008 we had a similar shock when $4.50 a gallon gasoline convinced Americans they should give up their last Arctic wilderness. [7]</p>
<p><strong>Ecocide Explains why Electricity is so Cheap </strong></p>
<p>Electricity radically transformed and expanded our energy use. To a large extent, electricity defines modern technological civilization and made the Industrial Revolution and therefore our consumer society possible.</p>
<p>Electric power arrived barely a hundred years ago, but high costs and the Great Depression dried up most investment capital and delayed electric service to rural Americans until President Franklin Roosevelt signed into law the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) in 1935.</p>
<p>The REA loaned money created by the Federal Reserve at low interest rates and helped to set up electricity cooperatives.</p>
<p>Historically, energy is priced below its actual environmental and social cost in order to create excessive demand and discourage conservation. In other words such pricing diminishes the value of energy to users and causes them to use it irresponsibly and increase the amount of pollution coal-fired plants generate.</p>
<p>Why is electricity priced so cheap that &#8220;only the rich can afford to burn candles&#8221;?</p>
<p>Because cleaner alternatives like wind, solar or even natural gas don’t require mining companies to use dynamite to blast away 800 to 1,000 feet of 500 mountaintops and bury over 1200 miles of rivers and streams. [8]</p>
<p>Ecocide explains why 54% of electricity comes from the most abundant raw energy, coal and is the dirtiest source of power for much of the world. Coal-fired plants harm wildlife, generate smog, soot, acid rain, global warming, toxic air emissions and require billions of gallons of our most precious resource—water.</p>
<p><strong>He ruined the Country</strong></p>
<p>The private credit monopoly of rich and predatory moneylenders do not “prey upon the middle class” to get rich.</p>
<p>You don’t become wealthier by exchanging gold, silver and raw materials for about $500 trillion of the Monopoly money you print.</p>
<p>Moneylenders created the middle class and then conned us into trashing the planet because Ecocide was the goal <em>not</em> the unintended consequence.</p>
<p>American &#8220;capitalism&#8221; and our consumer economy make perfect sense if the goal was the attempted murder of the planet.</p>
<p>Maybe ecocide is what Wilson meant when he confessed that he &#8220;ruined the country.&#8221;</p>

<p>The U.S. Department of Labor Official Employment rate in September 2009 is now 90% (Unofficial rate is 75%).</p>
<p>And for those Americans who are still employed, they will find it harder to get that sweet deal on a new car because auto dealers won’t be competing with each other now that Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy made the decision (<em>not </em>the Chrysler bankruptcy judge), to close dealerships without regard to profitability.</p>
<p>Deese, age 31, in his first government position, shuffles back and forth from the West Wing to the Treasury Department dismantling the US Auto Industry and rewriting the rules of American “capitalism”. [1]</p>
<p>Deese’s first rule: Withdraw Credit and Liquidity. <strong> </strong></p>
<p>Result – Catch 22:</p>
<p>The pullback in spending causes companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating unemployment.</p>
<p>Which causes spending to fall and companies to cut back on inventory and staff -Creating more unemployment.</p>
<p>Causing spending to fall even further, forcing companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating even more unemployment…263,000 jobs eliminated in September.</p>
<p><strong>Full <em>Un</em>-Employment is on Track for 2012</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>The world is engulfed in a global economic crisis of staggering ferocity.</p>
<p>Making matters worse, a government &#8220;by and for&#8221; the American people may not be prepared for the social dislocation, economic despair and breakdown in law and order that is likely to ensue.</p>
<p>The Los Angeles Times Reports on the Current <em>Un</em>-Employment Situation: In addition to the 15.1 million people counted as officially unemployed, the number of people so discouraged that they have quit looking for jobs is 9.2 million.</p>
<p>Is the total number of unemployed now 24,300,000?</p>
<p>No.</p>
<p>The newly defined “de-facto” unemployment rate does not include all the categories of people who are no longer in the labor force, in other words, the under-employed, the marginally employed, and the part time job seekers who can no longer find work.</p>
<p>Data from The McKinsey Global Institute estimates the real de facto unemployment rate in the United States would be 24.78%.</p>
<p>Thus, there are almost 39 million, not 15.1 million, or even 24.3 million Americans who are no longer working or looking for work, and that figure is before the Federal Reserve kicks Brian Deese into high gear. [2]</p>
<p>Since there is not enough police, National Guard or military to keep order when 39 million people panic, Barack Obama will restore order by telling his followers standing in lines that this nation, unlike in the past, will put its hands on &#8220;the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.&#8221;</p>
<p>As a president elected in a landslide by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled, Obama will lead the nation out of its unsustainable American Dream and into a great new depression.</p>
<p>Even with evidence to the contrary, Americans believe government is suppose to take care of them because &#8220;it&#8217;s their job.&#8221; In an environment of homelessness, poverty and suffering, millions of unemployed Americans will forget their 60 years of unprecedented prosperity&#8211;at the expense of the Third World and the environment&#8211;and look for someone to blame.</p>
<p>But they won&#8217;t find a Bush, Clinton or even a Ronald Reagan in Washington. Instead, sitting in the Oval Office will be King Barack Obama, telling us to return to our homes, cars or tent cities.</p>
<p>The newest leader will, in fact, be followed because this time Americans believe their dreams came true in 2008 when Barack Obama was elected the 44<sup>th</sup> President of the United States.</p>
<p>We hope and pray Obama wants to put us back to work and reclaim the American Dream but the new rules of capitalism call for an American Nightmare.</p>
<p>Barack Obama, an unknown senator four years ago, is not one of  &#8220;us.&#8221; He travels in the same circles as other members of the super-secret Skull &amp; Bones society of Yale University who pretend to be running for president every four years. The decision to make Obama Commander in Chief of the collapse was made four years ago; the November election was a formality [3].</p>
<p>To believe otherwise is to ignore the Bradley/Palin effect, the voting machines that flipped ballots before the voter left the booth, and the decision by John McCain to wait until his concession speech to shed the image of a nasty &#8220;grumpy old man.&#8221;</p>
<p>In September 2008, when the Obama campaign seemed to be slumping and their candidate&#8217;s long-standing lead in the polls had evaporated, the senator&#8217;s supporters openly worried that a potential victory might be slipping away. Then providence joined the campaign: the failure of the giant investment bank Lehman Brothers followed by a global financial meltdown which began in the month of <em>October.</em> [4]</p>
<p>&#8220;If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy,&#8221; on Nov. 4, 2008 you received your answer: It did not matter who you voted for because it was already written: Barack Obama would be the President of the United States by a landslide.</p>
<p>Instead of being the “most dangerous man in America”, the Candidate for Change and Hope will be the “most remarkable leader the world has ever seen”&#8211;intellectual, oratorical, governmental and a genius who will guide us through the greatest calamity the world has ever seen.</p>
<p>Thanks to Barack Obama, a 21st century Martin Luther King, there will be chaos, but not anarchy.</p>
<p>The really inconvenient truth is this: The 600 detention centers built by the Halliburton subsidiary KBR do not have the capacity to hold the 39 million Americans who will be out of work, out of home and out of food.</p>
<p>Will they be out of hope?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“We don’t want your tired, poor, huddled masses yearning to trash the planet” The Federal Reserve, 2009.</p>
<p>By Robert Singer</p>
<p>Having trouble understanding the events since the October 2008 financial crisis?</p>
<p>Any of this sound familiar:</p>
<ul>
<li>Banks hoarding their TARP funds</li>
<li>Gas prices going up when they should be going down</li>
<li>Automobile dealerships closed without regard to profitability</li>
<li>Health Care reform: The Kevorkian is out of jail early</li>
</ul>
<p>What’s going on?</p>
<p>Bush Sr. said our way of life wasn’t negotiable in 1992 but as of October 2008, it&#8217;s all over but the weeping and gnashing of teeth.</p>
<p>And in one of those coincidences that don’t happen very often: like all four financial meltdowns in history occurring in <em>October</em>, the October 2008 financial meltdown guaranteed Barack Obama, an unknown senator 4 years ago, would be the 44th president of the United States. [1]</p>
<p>October 2008, to anyone not in denial, marked the last day the men behind the Federal Reserve, all connected to the House of Rothschild, gave up what’s left of their<em> </em>wealth so the huddled middle class can trash the planet.</p>
<p>In 1910 these men already controlled one-sixth of the world’s <em>real</em> wealth—gold, silver and raw materials—not the fiat currency we call money.</p>
<p>Trashing the planet began when the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, one of the most important domestic acts in the nation’s history, took the power to create money from the people and gave it to the swindlers and scoundrels (robber barons) of our filtered history for profit.</p>
<p>One of the more absurd notions that found its way into the writings of economic experts, is that the Federal reserve took away the peoples right to create money so they could make a “profit.”</p>
<p>If exchanging $500 trillion of <em>real </em>wealth: raw materials, commodities, copper, iron ore, petroleum, lead, silver and gold for fiat currency so the middle class (former members of the Third Estate i.e. serfs and slaves) could have houses, cars, RVs, TVs and DVDs—is profitable, then Econ 101 is for dummies and the robber barons are now Robinhood Barons. [2]</p>
<p>During the last 100 years those swindlers were able to distort the structure of relative prices; generate misallocations of labor and capital throughout the economy; rationalize new governmental interventions in the face of the market &#8220;instability&#8221; manipulate the patterns of and the profits from international trade which resulted in the Industrial Revolution, the Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970’s, the dot-com and the housing market bubbles…all of which created unprecedented prosperity for the middle class, $500 trillion of Monopoly money for the House of Rothschild and ecocide for the Planet. [3]</p>
<p><strong>Banks Don’t Make Loans To People Living In Tent Cities</strong></p>
<p>The Robinhood Barons are now making generous interest payments to the banks for “parking” their TARP and other government taxpayer bailout money <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">instead of</span></em> making loans to struggling Americans living in their cars and in tent cities. [4]</p>
<p>Oil prices are on the rise, which is driving up prices at the pump. Economics for dummies would dictate they should be falling. [5]</p>
<p>Out-of-work, out-of-hope homeless people living in <em>Bushvilles</em> no longer need cheap gasoline to go shopping for all that affordable “stuff” the Fed financed so we could trash the planet.</p>
<p>And those Americans who are still employed will find it harder to get that sweet deal on a new car because auto dealers won’t be competing with each other now that Brian Deese, special assistant to president Obama for economic policy made the decision (<em>not </em>the Chrysler bankruptcy judge), to close dealerships without regard to profitability.</p>
<p>Deese, age 31, in his first government position, shuffles back and forth from the West Wing to the Treasury Department dismantling the US Auto Industry and rewriting the rules of American “capitalism”. [6]</p>
<p>Deese’s first rule: Withdraw Credit and Liquidity.</p>
<p>Result – Catch 22:</p>
<p>The pullback in spending causes companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating unemployment.</p>
<p>Which causes spending to fall and companies to cut back on inventory and staff -Creating more unemployment.</p>
<p>Causing spending to fall even further, forcing companies to cut back on inventory and staff &#8211; Creating even more unemployment…</p>
<p><strong>Unemployed Americans Don’t Need Healthcare (Euthanasia should be a Right not a Privilege)</strong></p>
<p>Elizabeth McCaughey, former lieutenant governor of New York said older Americans should be worried about Page 425 of the Health Care Bill, which she claims has the government sponsoring suicide education.</p>
<p>Her claim that Congress would make it mandatory that every five years, people in Medicare have a required counseling session that will tell them “how to end their life sooner, how to decline nutrition, how to decline being hydrated, how to go into hospice care,&#8221; got her a &#8220;pants on fire&#8221; rating.  The claim has nonetheless spread like wildfire, being repeated not just on blogs and radio shows but by Republican members of Congress because as Committee Chairman Thaddeus McCotter (R-MI), pointed out &#8220;this provision may start us down a treacherous path toward government-encouraged euthanasia if enacted into law.&#8221;</p>
<p>Why can’t we go down the “Right and Dignity to Die” path? [7]</p>
<p>Opponents of &#8220;death with dignity with their slippery slope argument make about as much sense as the Pro life (really pro fetus) movement in denying a woman the choice to give birth.</p>
<p>A compassionate society would never withhold &#8220;the ultimate civil right,&#8221; from a mentally competent, terminally ill person who chooses to avoid unnecessary suffering.</p>
<p>Now that our way of life (trashing the planet) is over there is no need to feed, clothe and “car” all these humans but euthanasia is way too inefficient at population reduction.</p>
<p><strong>What is the Best Way to Depopulate? Top 2 Wiki Answers</strong></p>
<p>Armageddon and The Flu Could eliminate 200 million of the masses.</p>
<p>Let’s say one of those radical Christian or Jewish groups plotting to blow up the Dome of the Rock, that magnificent golden domed mosque built on the site of Solomon’s Temple, is successful. Islam’s third holiest shrine stands directly over the most holy Jewish place and is preventing the Messiah from returning to Earth.</p>
<p>According to biblical prophecy, the temple must be rebuilt and sacrifice reinstated before Jesus can come back to earth; the first time for the Jews; the second time for the Christians. No temple = no Messiah.</p>
<p>What would happen if the Dome were to be demolished?</p>
<p>Well for the first time in history, thanks to Saddam Hussein who drained 60 percent of the wetlands, 200 million people could cross the Euphrates for a holy war in Jerusalem also known as Armageddon.  [8]</p>
<p>Or remember the last Bird (now Swine) Flu hoax where the public stampeded to get their worthless dose of Tamiflu and were convinced it was a scare tactic to make Rumsfeld millions.</p>
<p>Well, at the first sign of an epidemic, even without the forced immunization clause in the Patriot Act, the fools will rush down to get their shot.</p>
<p>Immunization which will be based on Genome sequencing–a biotechnology that allows doctors to tailor medical treatments to an individual’s genetic profile:</p>
<p>“Here for your shot?”</p>
<p>“Worried about the Bird Flu, oh of course sit here, roll up your sleeve, oops, sorry you died.”</p>
<p>“Well I guess it was too late for you; next time, get here sooner!” [9]</p>
<p>The Illuminati, they say, need only 500 million of us when they take over the world.</p>
<p>Either of these events would get us started on a slow, but orderly road to a population of slaves.</p>
<p>New World order conspiracy theorists expect a depopulation event to eliminate 5 billion useless eaters.</p>
<p>I don’t know for sure what is behind Obamacare but it certainly isn’t depopulation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Robert Singer</p>
<p>Free enterprise, also called free market, is an economy governed by the laws of supply and demand, not restrained by government interference, regulation or subsidy.</p>
<p>Command economy is basically a slave enterprise where supply and price are regulated by the government rather than market forces.</p>
<p>The only thing I will agree with about the “law of supply and demand” is that supply at a downward-manipulated price, can create demand.</p>
<p>Downward manipulation is an uneconomic aberration first discovered in the precious metals market by the noted silver analyst, Ted Butler.</p>
<p>We are conditioned to believe free enterprise supply and demand would lead to inflated prices so the greedy corporations can make more money, but Ted Butler’s research in the silver market concludes the opposite.</p>
<p>The beneficiaries of this type of manipulation are the consumers because corporations can sell their products affordably and still make a profit.</p>
<p>Butler’s investigation has identified JP Morgan Chase, one of the founding members of the Federal Reserve, as the prime suspect, in the “ongoing intentional, not accidental” great crime of keeping the price of commodities low so the middle class can afford the American dream, a nightmare for the planet. [1]</p>
<p>I’ll get right to the point: McDonalds in the 1950s made a profit by selling a product for less than the competition, but a not-so-invisible hand produced cheap calories in great abundance so Ray “Crock” could sell a cheeseburger, fries and a large Coke for a price equal to less than an hour of labor at the minimum wage — and still make a profit.

<p><img src="http://disinfo.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hamburger-300x195.jpg" alt="hamburger" title="hamburger" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-13482" width="300" height="195" />You don’t eat the hamburger at McDonalds because it’s a dollar: It’s a dollar to get you to eat it.</p>
<p>How did we get a food system that produced what should be a $35 hamburger <em>downwardly manipulated </em>to $1? [3]</p>
<p>&#8220;Taxpayer subsidies basically underwrite cheap grain, and that&#8217;s what the factory-farming system for meat is entirely dependent on,&#8221; Doug Gurian-Sherman, a senior scientist in the Food &amp; Environment Program at the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS). [4]</p>
<p>In other words, the Scoundrels behind the Federal Reserve, Rothschild, Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and JP Morgan Chase, underwrite cheap grain and the factory-farming system for meat, so you can get a hamburger for a dollar.</p>
<p>Our current food system—characterized by monocultures of corn and soy in the field and cheap calories of fat, sugar and feedlot meat on the table—is not the product of any free market but rather the result of a specific set of governmental and monetary policies  (from those Scoundrels at the Fed) and the free gift of fossil fuels from the world’s richest man in history and another founding member of the Federal Reserve, John D. Rockefeller.</p>
<p>He didn’t just give dimes away, he gave away his oil so you could get inexpensive fuel and food.</p>
<p>If you fly over Iowa from October to April you will notice the land is completely bare— black—because you are seeing an agricultural landscape created by cheap oil from John D.</p>
<p>Cheap energy enabled the creation of monocultures and vastly increased the productivity both of the American land and the American farmer but at the same time, subsidized monocultures of grain also led directly to monocultures of animals.</p>
<p>Since factory farms could buy grain for less than it cost farmers to grow it, they could now fatten animals more cheaply than farmers could.</p>
<p>So America’s meat and dairy animals migrated from farm to feedlot, driving down the price of animal protein to the point where an American can enjoy eating a hamburger or chicken McNuggets for a dollar.</p>
<p>Taking the animals off farms made no economic, environmental or ecological sense: their waste, formerly regarded as a precious source of fertility on the farm, became a pollutant—factory farms are now one of America’s biggest sources of pollution.</p>
<p>As Wendell Berry has tartly observed, to take animals off farms and put them on feedlots is to take an elegant solution—animals replenishing the fertility that crops deplete—and neatly divide it into two problems: a fertility problem on the farm and a pollution problem on the feedlot. The former problem is remedied with fossil-fuel fertilizer; the latter is remedied not at all.</p>
<p>After World War II, the US government pursued a monetary policy, at the direction of the Fed, subsidizing commodity crops by paying farmers (money created out of thin air) by the bushel for all the corn, soybeans, wheat and rice they could produce. One secretary of agriculture after another implored them to plant “fence row to fence row” and to “get big or get out.”</p>
<p>The chief result was a flood of cheap grain that could be sold for substantially less than it cost farmers to grow because a government (Scoundrel) check helped make up the difference.</p>
<p>As this artificially manipulated cheap grain worked its way up the food chain, it drove down the price of all the calories derived from that grain: the high-fructose corn syrup in the Coke, the soy oil in which the potatoes were fried, the meat and cheese in that burger until the price reached a dollar. [5]</p>
<p><strong>ADM Gets Caught Putting Money In The Cookie Jar</strong></p>
<p>“The Informant!” is a movie about the lysine price-fixing scandals that Archer Daniels Midland found themselves in the center of back in the 90s.</p>
<p>ADM was caught fixing the price lysine, an amino acid and very attractive animal feed additive used to make chickens fat, dumb, and happy, back <em>up</em>, after it was <em>manipulated</em> too far <em>down</em> for anyone to make a profit.</p>
<p>Price-fixing is a crime no matter how many people ADM feeds. [6]</p>
<p>From cradle to grave we are brainwashed to believe everything is about profit.</p>
<p>So, in the film, when Mark Whitacre tells the FBI that ADM cheated millions from the consumer by colluding to fix prices, we forget that Americans spend less than 10% of their incomes on food (down from 18% in 1966).  When we eat inexpensive burgers and fries, it’s thanks to ADM downward-manipulating the price of lysine. [7]</p>
<p>Our not-so-free market economy based on consumer products, that is, products we are downward manipulated to want, not need, was never FREE or sustainable. Consumers consume…the resources of the planet.</p>
<p>The huddled masses should be thanking those scoundrels at the Federal Reserve for 60 years of d<em>ownward manipulating </em>the price of commodities: It resulted in unprecedented prosperity, but don’t forget to blame them because the American dream was an environmental nightmare for the planet. [8]</p>

<p>[3] Economist Douglas McDonald estimates that if water subsidies were withdrawn from California livestock producers, the income of the state’s other businesses and workers would rise over $10 billion annually (1987 figures).</p>
<p>Other economists have exposed the cost of water subsidies to the meat industry that are hidden in the state’s rising prices for water rights, and thus, housing. Fields and Hur calculate the overall price of subsidizing the California meat industry’s water to be $24 billion (1987 figures).

<p>[4] Time Magazine, <em>Getting Real About the High Price of Cheap Food</em>, By Bryan Walsh Friday, Aug. 21, 2009</p>
<p>[5] In years past, except in the dead of winter, you would have seen in those fields a checkerboard of different greens: pastures and hayfields for animals, cover crops, perhaps a block of fruit trees. <em>Farmer in Chief</em>, Michael Pollan, Published: October 9, 2008</p>
<p>Before the application of oil and natural gas to agriculture, farmers relied on crop diversity (and photosynthesis) both to replenish their soil and to combat pests, as well as to feed themselves and their neighbors.</p>
<p>[6] Each day, the 28,000 people of Archer Daniels Midland Company transform crops such as corn, oilseeds, wheat and cocoa into food ingredients, animal feeds, and agriculturally derived fuels and chemicals.</p>
<p>The editors of World Watch state that “the human appetite for animal flesh is a driving force behind virtually every major category of environmental damage now threatening the human future—deforestation, erosion, fresh water scarcity, air and water pollution, climate change, biodiversity loss, social injustice, the destabilization of communities and the spread of disease.”</p>
<p>Lee Hall, the legal director for Friends of Animals, is more succinct: “Behind virtually every great environmental complaint there’s milk and meat.”</p>
<p>[7] Archer Daniels Midland has been sued for colluding to fix prices in the citric acid and high fructose corn syrup markets among others, but their most noteworthy violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 was the part ADM played in fixing the price of lysine, an amino acid used in animal feed. Lysine is especially good at making chickens fat, dumb, and happy, which makes it a very attractive feed additive. Unlike any other price-fixing conspiracy before or since, ADM&#8217;s involvement in forming and participating in a cartel was meticulously recorded by a mole inside the organization while the crime was being committed, offering an incredible insight into the nuts and bolts of an international corporate conspiracy.</p>

<p>Google “9/11 conspiracy” and you get 134,000,000 results. Google “9/11 outrageous conspiracy” you get 556,000 results.
