THAT WHICH WAS, IS, AND WILL BE - II



Recently there have been efforts by some to promote quatrains by Nostradamus indicating that December 21, 2012 would be the end of what we know about the Earth and civilization.

I responded to an online offer to see what one of these publishers had to say. It was a very nicely written article about Nostradamus, the quatrain in question, and and offer to better prepare us for that time.

The assumption is of course that lots of bad things will suddenly happen and change every aspect of life as we know it.

I personally do not care to find value in Nostradamus. The Bible has already shown me and many others about future times although it does not provide a specific date. So we live by faith and our patients is nurtured by it also. Our intuition or instinct become sharpened by the Holy Spirit, which is ever invisible and ever present.

Now unfortunately the publisher offered information that would help you and I prepare for 2012, but he wants us to pay for this information. So it is a commercial enterprise. More significant was the fact that it used numerology to render value to their premise. December 21, 2012 or 12, 21, 2012. 1+2 = 3, 2+1 = 3, 2+0+1+2 = 5. Adding 3+3+5 = 11. In the numeric values of numerology the number 11 is a divine and cannot be changed by adding 1+1 together.

However, the said publisher of the 2012 debacle indicated the 1+2 = 3, 2+1 = 3 and 1+2 (as in 2012 or 12) was 3. Add 3+3+3 together and you get the number 9. Which is incorrect. You cannot use a numerological value from 2012 and ignore the first number 2. So the theory that that publisher has derived at from their use of numerology is incorrect. In that year, day and month it will not add up to a number 9, but instead number 11.

Assuming that I am correct and that this period will have some significance by the calendar numbers: what will be the end as we know it?

This question has been on my mind for decades. Like a puzzle and yet all one need do is look at history. If there is going to be some cataclysmic out come December 12, 2012 it will not be the first, nor something humans have not seen and endured before.

To assume that it will be an economic collapse is a strong notion. And it appears that this may be occurring to the extent that the rich will be alright but the working people and the poor might suffer greatly. Again this is not new. The depression of my mother's time was far worse than anything we have experienced since that time. So a global economic collapse would not be new.

To think that the world will be at war, and rumors of war is not new either. We been in small and big wars fairly regularly since WWI. Note* they are arranged, and declared in interesting numerical intervals now at an increasing rate. About 20 years had passed between WWI and WWII. Then the Korean War occurred about 10 years later. Within 7 years of that ending we were openly involved in the Vietnamese problem. From that point there have been less publicized smaller wars primarily in the middle-east and insurrections in Africa, as well as S. America and other parts of S.E. Asia. My point is war is not new.

Perhaps a plague or virus will be the thing to look forward too. Well, that is not new either. The Black Plague, Polio, Tuberculosis, Aids/HIV, Cancer have all weighed in the taken many lives. So this is not new either.

There is only one aspect of human development that we have not accomplished yet globally that would absolutely change life as we know it. Do you know what that is?

In the the book of Genesis we read that God created man and woman in his image, beginning of course with Adam and Eve. If this is true then this means that we are like God in many ways, but most importantly, we are spirit!

In the New Testament Jesus comes and reinforces this fact by say: "Seek ye the kingdom of Heaven first, and the rest shall be given to you". Meaning again that by being and living as Godly spirits our first purpose of living is to seek God in ALL aspects of our life: from this food, clothing, money, shelter, spouses, family will be given to you.

It is very clear to me that our civilization, from the beautiful mountains and plains, rivers, lakes, valley and fields of America, to Europe, Russia, China, S.E. Asia, Africa, and the middle-east, the one thing man and woman has not universally done is live by the spirit that God made them. This cannot occur by a one-world-religion, but merely by a real change of heart in men and women around the world.

This is in part due to the god of this earth who prefers that we live in just as we are living. Confused, doubtful, fearful, reckless, deceitful. We build our identities up by the value of what we have and own. We presume our profession says a lot about who we are, and in some ways for some people this is true. But unless we are seeking the kingdom of heaven first we will never come to the center of what we are and live as magnificently as God wants.

As 12-21-2012 = the number 11, which is a divine number I presume that this date, if it has any significance at all will ring in a period whereby billions of people will see and know for the first time in the generations of their ancestors the meaning of God. God will become bigger than any Multinational corporation, any military might, any sporting event, any new political power, any false prophet, and any false gods. In Taoist I Ching hexagram numbers 11 is synonymous with : PEACE.

Even with suffering, hunger, poverty, violence, political intrigues, disease and famine, God's people will standout in awesome and unrecognizable numbers to denounce to cloak of deception that prevails and covers the minds-eye of many otherwise good people.

It is by this occurrence the god of this earth works feverishly 24/7 to dissuade and confuse us to this powerful truth. This fact is not new either. For the god of this earth has been using these ploys from ancient times up to today. This could ring in the time of peace that the book of Revelations prophecy. If so we know that this time signals not a true peace but the beginning the a presence of the god of this earth, the rapture of God's saved people, and the tribulation.

That's my guess in any case.

THAT WHICH WAS, IS, AND WILL BE



Yesterday online there was a story about a young man in Florida who was fired from his job for wearing a button that refers to God and our country. The major chain he worked for has a policy about not wearing religious oriented slogans on buttons or graphics on clothing.

In recent years courts have had to adapt to people suing municipalities, and public property for having statues magnifying God for all too see. Amendments in our Constitution allow some people prejudiced or offended by public display of Godly items or even public prayer to be over ruled and removed or discontinued.

As a nation we have fallen so low from a cohesive morality to a point that not long a boy children shot other children holding prayer prior to entering school. I personally cannot forget the the boys who shot the young girl in her face when she admitted loving Jesus Christ during the infamous Columbine incident.

Today some people enjoy their new emancipation from seeming moral. I recall while running down Ocean Park Boulevard in Santa Monica, a young women passing by wearing a t-shirt that read "Fuck U of M". She looked dead at me as I jogged by here as if to say notice me. I doubt that she would understand that my disgust had to do with the use of profanity written across her breast than her hatred for U of M.

Some people have been shocked when I ask them to stop cursing when the are talking to me. Or to cease referring to a women under discussion as "cunt", or "bitch" or "cock-sucker". It find regular conversation that includes profanity offensive. My entire family does. We've all grown up that way. But today more and more people seem to rely on the lowest levels of language to communicate seriously important issues, and wonder why it falls on deaf ears.

I don't need to be the best Christian or a perfect man to see with great clarity that this country is on a downward spiral. Sadly this fall is taking place during continued political upheaval in the middle-east, and economic miasma world-wide, with a pending perpetual global food crisis, and unpredictable catastrophic weather patterns, a last but not least potential pandemics. I know it is hard for the non-believer to understand what I mean when I say: This is the time of the Anti-Christ!



We hear that name frequently, but evangelical radio and television shows have stepped their teachings in New Testament Prophecy at the risk of loosing ardent followers who often send donations. The truth is not even some baptized Christians can accept without denial the fact their is a growing darkness across in entire land.
So they go to other more pleasant ministries.

If the true believer of Biblical teaching does not speak up for Jesus, and in turn our country, then politically, economically, legally, and spiritually we are headed for hell. It should be obvious by now, but it's hard to get hard-headed people to listen and hear the word.

During WWII there was Pius XII or Pope Pacelli, a pious man, the Vicar of Christ on Earth. As the war continued and the Third Reich began shipping Jews to camps the Pope got news of these actions. Many people, including Christian Nazi's and Italian Catholics under Mussolini's rule, would have done more to stop the extermination if so powerful a man as Pope Pacelli had spoken out and mentioned in writ and orally his distaste for Hitler's Final Solution.

As the years rolled on and Great Britain, the United States were well aware that millions of Jews from around Europe were being worked to death, starved, gassed, shot, and used as laboratory experiments, leaders admonished and waited with bated breath of the Pope to speak up. The idea was that if the Pope would not condone the Nazi's activities then the U.S, Britain and others could back him up politically and militarily from a moral standpoint.

However, he didn't say a word. When he did mention something about it he did so in writing and never mentioned Hitler, the Nazis, or what was happening to Jewish people in Europe, in Rome, even those who had converted to Catholicism. Some scholars believe one reason for his remaining mum was due to his concern that if the Nazi's were forced out of power then Stalin's army would definitely swarm into Germany and take over. He had already seen what the communist do to churches and religious professionals, and to his thinking continuous open dialogue with Hitler was the not the worse of the two evils. The end result was after the war Pope Pacelli was tagged with the name "Hitler's Pope". That was during a period where more people were converting to Catholicism around the world than before!

Ironically, I have read that the International bankers that funded Hitler also secretly funded Stalin, and hence pitted them against each other. I have never been taught nor read that any historian thinks Stalin should be considered an anti-Christ because he killed upwards to 70,000,000 folks. Keep that in mind as you apprehensively watch world events unfold today. And don't blame the messenger for trying to open your mind to the reality.



I reiterate, we are on a morally downward momentum. We're too accepting of violence and death, lovers of decadence and putridity. Some of us have become so obsessed with these qualities we do them too ourselves. Thus our society has become overwhelmingly self-destructive. Any banker, elite, or oligarch who wants control of the masses can easily see that our civilization is almost sitting ducks. By our own mistreatment of ourselves we're practically giving away our souls while they steal everything else.

Martin Luther King said, our civilization is dysfunctional. It has gotten worse since his death over 40 years ago. The earth is sick too. Why is it most Christians can clearly see the world's demise coming and others cannot? The Bible. If an organism or entity remains dysfunctional or sick for too long you know what the outcome is. I don't believe we can really blame anyone one else for this debacle accept the "god of this planet." I know people who considered selling their souls to him for fame, money, power, women because the knew others who had taken that path before them.

There is a price for everything we do. The god of this earth offers riches, beautiful people, power, fame to you because he cannot give you eternal life. In fact you lose your soul, which is really the best thing you have going for yourself right now. Your spirit lives within you and is waiting to be magnified by Jesus, but don't know that yet. The god of this earth doesn't want you to know it either. He'd rather blind you with bling-bling, big booties, power lunches. Suckas!

Jesus on the other hand shows us the way to the Kingdom of Heaven, which in turn enlivens our spirits to LIVE, which is a verb and action, so that your soul will live on after your flesh rots away. Why is it so important for your soul to be saved? Well pick up your Bibles, go to Bible classes with that friend who's been invited you, ask the Lord to come into your life and revolutionize it now and forever. Then you'll find out. You will be changed! Its all free.

In conclusion, if Biblical prophecy bares up, as it is doing with great accuracy, then all of us are going to be lulled or forced into believing and serving the lies of the anti-Christ. The only real chance we have to keep him away from your valued soul is accepting Jesus. This too is a historical fact.

The Economic Crisis in Europe


Photo: Greek Farmers Protest earlier this year.

As an addendum to my previous article about the U.S. financial crisis I thought it would be best to add excerpts and photos of this article from Robert Morley of www.Trumpet.com.

I think anyone who is vitally interested in the direction the world is going now needs to find Christian historians who have proven their ability in relating old world history with today's events. You don't have to be a Christian to start wising up.

I've included some photos from other sites from earlier this year so that you can see that this financial crisis is no small order and will not be solved overnight. It is worldwide. Understand now, that most things, political, economic, social, are global. What happens here can have good or bad affect on other countries and their people.

The Unseen Danger in Europe’s Economic Crisis

From the January 2009 Trumpet Print Edition

Europe’s history is a series of crises and Germany’s crucial reactions to them. That history is not over yet. By Robert Morley


America’s banking crisis tore into Europe with shocking ferocity. Governments from London to Berlin are assessing the carnage and scrambling to prop up collapsing banks. With more failures expected, and unemployment rising, Europe may be facing its gravest crisis since the 1930s. And when Europe is faced with crisis, history says we had better beware: Earthshaking events often soon follow.

The global depression of the 1930s was not just an economic crisis; it was a political and social one too. That disaster sowed the seeds for the rise of radical nationalistic and totalitarian movements around the world. In Russia and elsewhere, it emboldened communism. In Japan, it empowered the Cult of the Emperor. In Italy, Mussolini’s fascists rose to the fore, in tandem with the Falangists of Spain. In France, it was the Croix-de-Feu.

In Germany, it was the Nazis.

People were desperate, and leaders with radical solutions gained power.

The current global economic crisis is creating desperation in Europe again. We need to take notice: The last worldwide financial catastrophe left more than dead banks. The Great Depression only ended when the world went to war. That economic crisis ended in a global bloodbath!

A Series of Economic Shocks

Right now Europe is shaken. After Lehman Brothers fell in America in September, dominoes across the Continent began cascading. UK mortgage lender Bradford & Bingley came crashing down; so did Iceland’s three largest banks, eventually plunging the small Nordic nation into bankruptcy negotiations. In Germany, Hypo Real Estate Holdings, the largest commercial property lender in the nation, had to be propped up by the government in order to keep it from falling and taking a whole lot of people with it.

Then, the biggest shock to that date hit Europe. Fortis, the 300-year-old bastion of Flemish finance, narrowly avoided tumbling into oblivion by a Dutch and Belgian nationalization on September 28.

The next day, Dexia, a financial company whose roots stretch back to 1860, was felled and hurriedly propped up again by the French, Belgians and Luxembourgers. In Switzerland, banking giants UBS and Credit Suisse are teetering on the edge, and it is unclear whether even the Swiss government possesses the resources it would take to save them from falling. In Denmark, a host of smaller banks are ready to tip over.

But the dramatic nature of the European crisis was made most clear after Ireland issued what the Telegraph called the “most radical bank bailout” in years—a blanket guarantee covering its entire banking sector (Oct. 5, 2008). Irish taxpayers are now responsible for $400 billion, twice the nation’s gross domestic product. Then Germany went one step more radical and announced it would federally guarantee all private savings accounts, thus setting off a rush of other European governments to guarantee their respective financial industries.

The European banking sector resembles the carnage in America. The Telegraph claimed the European Central Bank may be losing control. “The ecb is no longer able to inject liquidity because the money is just coming back to them again,” said Hans Redeker, currency chief at France’s bnp Paribas (Sept. 30, 2008). UK economist Barry Gills explained that “there is no expectation that loaning money will be profitable and not loss-making” (EUobserver, Sept. 30, 2008). As a result, European banks are taking emergency loans from the ecb, but instead of lending it out to cash-strapped individuals and corporations, they are hoarding it to protect themselves—at the safest place possible: in money accounts at the ecb.

In reality, the European economy is faltering. The eurozone economy shrank during the second and third quarters of 2008. France and Germany are already in recession, and the European Commission expects Britain and Spain to enter recession soon too. Meanwhile, eurozone unemployment hit 7.5 percent in August, and Germany is now expected to join France, Italy and Spain in the ranks of those with growing numbers of unemployed.

Historically, Europe, especially Germany, facing an economic crisis is not a good sign.

Does A U.S. Economic Crisis Still Loom?



Photo Image from: Atlantic Magazine, May 2009. Also see www.theatlantic.com/doc/200905/imf-advice.

Economy May 2009 Atlantic

The crash has laid bare many unpleasant truths about the United States. One of the most alarming, says a former chief economist of the International Monetary Fund, is that the finance industry has effectively captured our government—a state of affairs that more typically describes emerging markets, and is at the center of many emerging-market crises. If the IMF’s staff could speak freely about the U.S., it would tell us what it tells all countries in this situation: recovery will fail unless we break the financial oligarchy that is blocking essential reform. And if we are to prevent a true depression, we’re running out of time.

by Simon Johnson

This is a very strong warning about the serious potential of the U.S. economy failing amidst a desperate attempt to save it. It is uncomfortable to read or hear. While on the one hand some economic advisers are saying the economy is improving and will recover, President Obama has continued to stay with his knowledge and advise that we are still potentially threatened by a potential depression! He has been ridiculed by political opponents who disagree with his negative outlook. While others view his opinion and policies as nothing more than 'telling it like it is'.

In 2006 I worked for a small mortgage firm. Most of the applications for refinance loans were by people who had low credit scores. It seemed as though the good credit market, known as the prime market, had been exhausted. Lenders were tightening up. Where it seemed relatively easy to get a loan approval the winter and spring of 2006 by summer few loans were being processed at all.

One summer evening that year I overheard a meeting between a loan agent for a large lender and my employer. She warned him that the projections for 2007's mortgage year were falling through the toilet. Basically she suggested he get out of business. Which is what he did. During that time the previous White House administration was keeping the same national profile: Everything is okay and we're seeing modest growth.

As I continued to call homes around the country the following year (2007) the lay-offs from individuals gradually increased throughout the year. Eventually I'd talk to business owners who were downsizing or closing down permanently. Eventually our economic recession became a major news item with buzz words like BAILOUT becoming focal point as more lay-offs from the Big Three auto companies loomed in the not too distant future.

This past spring and summer economic projections seem to have flip-flopped as much as the Dow Jones. One week there is a rally worth jumping into, the next week the major indexes drop so significantly small fortunes are lost. When you read the first paragraph of this article by Simon Johnson and you have to ask yourself, 'does anyone really know what's going on?'

Assuming that the former Chief Economist for the International Monetary Fund knows what they are talking about you may need to know what a oligarchy is? Webster Dictionary Definition:

A form of government with the ruling power belonging to a few.

What Mr. Johnson is suggesting is despite the known description of our free enterprise democracy being pluralistic by its nature, where the government is for and by the people, the truth is today our economy is being run by a few from Wall Street who have taken over the government and hence dictate our monetary policy.

One of the key criticisms the Producer, Mr. Jones, of the video "The Obama Deception", accused the White House of doing was filling seats of the administration with Wall Street players, a.k.a. oligarchs.

In the article Mr. Johnson uses examples from experience in dealing with third-world countries, and Banana Republics who have had to come to the I.M.F. for loans to help them bail themselves out of economic miasma. None of them like visiting the I.M.F. for help. It's like going to an oncologist when you think you have symptoms for Cancer.

Apparently some of the problem stems from the oligarchs of those countries using their power, their connections, to use the country's money riskily in ventures they hope will turn a gigantic profit. In years past sometimes it has worked, sometimes not. When it doesn't work these oligarchs can use their high-level connections to get help from private investment, the banking system, corporations, and government before their is a collapse. Sometimes this help works, sometimes it doesn't. The oligarchs run to the I.M.F. when their risk have failed and no one else will help them. Mr. Johnson writes:

"The reason, of course, is that the IMF specializes in telling its clients what they don’t want to hear. I should know; I pressed painful changes on many foreign officials during my time there as chief economist in 2007 and 2008. And I felt the effects of IMF pressure, at least indirectly, when I worked with governments in Eastern Europe as they struggled after 1989, and with the private sector in Asia and Latin America during the crises of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Over that time, from every vantage point, I saw firsthand the steady flow of officials—from Ukraine, Russia, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea, and elsewhere—trudging to the fund when circumstances were dire and all else had failed." (1)

Mr. Johnson goes on the write that:

"Almost always, countries in crisis need to learn to live within their means after a period of excess—exports must be increased, and imports cut—and the goal is to do this without the most horrible of recessions. Naturally, the fund’s economists spend time figuring out the policies—budget, money supply, and the like—that make sense in this context. Yet the economic solution is seldom very hard to work out. No, the real concern of the fund’s senior staff, and the biggest obstacle to recovery, is almost invariably the politics of countries in crisis." (1)

From this perspective it seems that the criticism of President Obama's negative warnings about the economy are a real attempt to face the harsh reality in order to find a solution. In the meantime his critics are taking a political stance and steering Citizens from the truth. That truth is this may not be one of those recessions that ends in 18 months before the good times roll again. If this country is being run by oligarchs whose risk promulgated our economic problems via the mortgage industry, then we may still have problems unless the oligarchs change their ways.

Continuing with Mr. Johnson's writing:

"Typically, these countries are in a desperate economic situation for one simple reason—the powerful elites within them overreached in good times and took too many risks. Emerging-market governments and their private-sector allies commonly form a tight-knit—and, most of the time, genteel—oligarchy, running the country rather like a profit-seeking company in which they are the controlling shareholders. When a country like Indonesia or South Korea or Russia grows, so do the ambitions of its captains of industry. As masters of their mini-universe, these people make some investments that clearly benefit the broader economy, but they also start making bigger and riskier bets. They reckon—correctly, in most cases—that their political connections will allow them to push onto the government any substantial problems that arise."(1)

Squeezing the oligarchs, though, is seldom the strategy of choice among emerging-market governments. Quite the contrary: at the outset of the crisis, the oligarchs are usually among the first to get extra help from the government, such as preferential access to foreign currency, or maybe a nice tax break, or—here’s a classic Kremlin bailout technique—the assumption of private debt obligations by the government. Under duress, generosity toward old friends takes many innovative forms. Meanwhile, needing to squeeze someone, most emerging-market governments look first to ordinary working folk—at least until the riots grow too large.
(1)
Up to this point I've been quoting Simon Johnson's article. I will stop at this here to make a final conclusion and leave the link to this four page article for you to continue reading yourself. From the last quote Mr. Johnson uses Banana-Republics as another example where oligarchs have run economies into difficult times. Most important is the fact to Mr. Johnson's expert eyes America today looks remarkably like a Banana Republic economy. Despite our more advanced military, economy, and technology we also have a unique debacle: our oligarch is bigger and more complicated. Surmise the problem for yourself.

The Global Food Crisis



Photo: www.impactlab.com Ethiopian Children.

For the poor will never cease from the land; therefore I command you, saying, open your hand wide to your brother, to your poor and your needy in your land. Deuteronomy 16:17

Thomas Robert Malthus once postulated in his Essay On the Principle of Population, 1798 that there is a direct correlation between conflict among people and available resources. In other words as the population numbers rise and demand for valuable resources increases shortages of those resources promulgates conflict. For this reason he suggested that food relief should not be given to all but the poorest because of their vast numbers and the world’s limited ability to produce enough for everyone. Food relief to other less impoverished populations would encourage childbirth into economic misery. His research indicated that populations increase geometrically doubling every 25 years if unchecked, while food production increases arithmetically very slowly.

This attitude was view as harsh and it ultimately lessened Malthus’s thesis and its impact on the world. Lately food scientist are beginning to finally understand why Malthus held his unpopular position without shame.

According to writer Joel K. Bourne, National Geographic, June 2009, The Global Crisis of Food, The End of Plenty, between 2005 to 2008 the price of wheat, rice, and corn rose so high worldwide that it caused food riots in two dozen countries and pushed 75 million people into poverty. The problem? For the past decade the world has consumed more food than has produced. For years countries have relied upon stockpiles of food to feed their countries. In 2007 the second lowest shortage of all time lasted for 61 days thus causing the prices to increase.



Chart: www.news.monga.com/bioenergy/2008

In the same report Joachim Von Braun, the Director General of the International Policy Research Institute in Washington, D.C. warns that “agricultural productivity growth is only one or two percent a year. This is too low to meet population growth and increased demand.

I think Mr. Braun took the thesis right out of the mouth of Mr. Malthus. Basic economics teaches us that high prices are a sign that demand has outpaced supply. In the world today food shortages and even lower prices are causing agricultural inflation which burdens the poorest billion people on the planet. Many of these people live in the poorest countries and spend 50-70 percent of their low incomes on food.

Mr. Braun’s and his group of consulting groups are world renowned for having figured out ways to increase the output of wheat, corn, and rice production between the 1950’s and 1960’s. As the population increased to 6 billion there was enough food to go around. There success was dubbed the Green Revolution. However, the population is expected to skyrocket to 9 billion by 2030; meaning they will have to double production in half the time.

With the industrialization of other countries in recent history, like China, for example, billion of people have not only enjoyed being regularly fed, but have increased the production of meat products to their dinner plates. Today China uses a good deal of pork for all types of meals, but pigs need to 5 times more grain than people do in order to grow big and healthy and ready for butchering. The same can be said for the U.S. love of beef products. The fact is to keep beef production levels high enough to handle current demands for our growing population we need to grow big, healthy cows , which consume 10 times more grain than people do. A person can feed themselves more efficiently by eating the grain themselves. In China pork consumption increased 45% between 1993-2005. That is certainly a lot more pigs consuming a lot more grain to feed a lot more people. Our need for pork, lamb, and beef, is a double edged sword because as our need for it grows it helps shorten the supply of grains for future consumption by people.

Add to this debacle increase world consumption of oil for heating and transportation, rising cost, shorten supplies, and the need to use corn for bio-fuel production. The need to find ways to turn other grains into fuel is putting humans in the midst of a real problem that analyst are saying will cause perpetual hunger in the world. Will we strive to help each other through this problem or will we choose conflict?

Free and At Rest, Amen.



For he who has died has been freed from sin: Romans 6:7



Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another: Romans 14:19



For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also: James 2: 26.



Take heart and mourn not for her passing, but rejoice for her life, for Eunice is not dead, but at rest. For as Christ died and resurrected she lived through him in works and faith that she may live again. In Memory of Eunice Kennedy Shriver 1921-2009. Hail the True and the Brave. Hooyah!

July 4th 2009 Accident



At around 10:50 p.m. I heard a car approaching at pretty high speed. Then smash, revving engine, crash, screech! People gathered in front of the house where the car stopped very quickly. A young woman yelled up the street at the driver, "she deserve to have all her bones broken or to have her ass beat!"

Apparently several under-age teens had the keys to the car. They had been drinking 1800'. They came flying down this street until they lost control. Cars are expensive and dangerous in the wrong hands. So is alcohol. Don't drink and drive.

WHAT A DEMOCRACY IS NOT

4th of July Special


The last two articles, “What Is An American,” and, “A Lesson From Observing the Assassination”, dealt extensively with one of my greatest heroes former President John F. Kennedy. As I celebrate this 4th of July in 2009 by observing him and his legacy it seems appropriate to complete this third writing with his speech to West Berliners.

Amidst the Cold War and the need for Détente missile negotiations President Kennedy went to Europe on a foreign affairs trip.The German city had been divided by the giant wall which split the country into two political fronts: communist in the east, and democratic in the west. Berlin was the first city in Europe he visited and while the speech was not very long he nonetheless filled with the air with his passion for freedom and democracy. The speech does not explain what democracy is, however, it is a rally for what democracy is NOT nor must ever become.
An obstruction to the freedom of people.

“I am proud to come to this city as the guest of your distinguished Mayor, who has symbolized throughout the world the fighting spirit of West Berlin. And I am proud to visit the Federal Republic with your distinguished Chancellor who for so many years has committed Germany to democracy and freedom and progress, and to come here in the company of my fellow, American, General Clay, who has been in this city during its great moments of crisis and will come again if ever needed.

Two thousand years ago the proudest boast was “civis Romanus sum.” Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is “Ich bin ein Berliner.”

I appreciate my interpreter translating my German!

There are many people in the world who really don’t understand

There are many people in the world who really don’t understand, or say they don’t, what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world. Let them come to Berlin. There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future. Let them come to Berlin. And there are some who say in Europe and elsewhere we can work with the Communists. Let them come to Berlin. And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress. Lass’ sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.

Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect, but we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in, to prevent them from leaving us. I want to say, on behalf of my countrymen, who live many miles away on the other side of the Atlantic, who are far distant from you, that they take the greatest pride that they have been able to share with you, even from a distance, their story of the last 18 years. I know of no town, no city, that has been besieged for 18 years that still lives with the vitality and the force, and the hope and the determination of the failures of the Communist system, for all the world to see, we take no satisfaction in it, for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.

What is true of this city is true of Germany---real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice. In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people. You live in a defended island of freedom, but your life is part of the main. So let me ask you as I close, to lift your eyes beyond the dangers of today, to the hopes of tomorrow, beyond the freedom merely of this city of Berlin, or your country of Germany, to the advance of freedom everywhere, beyond the wall to the day of peace with justice, beyond yourselves, and ourselves to all mankind.

Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free. When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe. When that day finally comes as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines of almost two decades.

All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin, and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words “Ich bin ein Berliner.” End

We are a democratic country and therefore a free people. As a free people with leaders we vote for instead of kings or dictators to rule us we are blessed with the opportunity to challenge other countries by leading by our example. Still there are those who continue to rule their countries with tyranny, terrorist who kill the innocent for political attention, people in such need for democracy they will fight against ruling factions and risk their lives for freedom of expression. The election process of 2008, which brought President Obama to the White House revealed to the world how a country can progress beyond even its own expectations.

“We shall be judged more by what we do at home more than what we preach abroad.”

WHAT IS AN AMERICAN?

What Is An American?
4th of July Special Edition

This 4th of July, 2009 is the 9th celebration of Independence of the 21st century. Our country has gone through so much to be so young, and yet there is so much more to go through. At this hour in all the homes across this land men and women strive to sustain control over their lives, seek deeper meaning to their existence, sustenance for their minds and bodies, shelter over their heads.

In this hour of our 223rd year of Independence as we cautiously prepare for change and pray for stability one may pause and ask the question, who are we? What is an American?

Not long ago a very young man home from active duty in the war spoke before people on July 4th, 1946 in Boston and described elements of the American character. His name was John Fitzgerald Kennedy. He could not have known that in the not too distant future he would be President of the United States of America.

Notwithstanding his ideas serve as a foundation, a creed, for us today as they did for him back then.

He wrote, ‘It is well for us to consider our American character, for in peace, as in war, we will survive or fail according to its measure.

JFK described Americans with four distinct characteristics: religious, idealistic, patriotic, and individualistic. For the sake of brevity I have copied much of this speech below. For a full view of his words and wisdom see the link at the end.

Religion.

On religion, he surmised that our deep religious sense is the first element of the American character. The informing spirit of the American character has always been a deep religious sense. Throughout the years, down to the present, a devotion to fundamental religious principles has characterized American thought and action. Our government was founded on the essential integrity of the individual. It was this religious sense which inspired the authors of the Declaration of Independence:

“We hold these truths to be self evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights.”

Our early legislation was inspired by this deep religious sense: “Congress shall make no law prohibiting the free exercise of religion”.

Our first leader, Washington, was inspired by this deep religious sense: “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.”

Lincoln was inspired by this deep religious sense: “That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish on earth.”

How well, then as Detocqueville said, “You may talk of the people and their majesty, but where there is no respect for God can there be much for man? You may talk of the supremacy of the ballot, respect for order, denounce riot, succession, unless religion is the first link, all is vain.”

The cynics are wrong, for while there may be some truth in their interpretation, it does remain a fact, and a most important one, that the motivating force of the American people has been their belief that they have always stood at the barricades by the side of God.

Again, the cynics may supply the economic interpretation to this conflict: the industrial North against the agricultural South; the struggle of the two economies, say what they will, it is an undeniable fact that the Northern Army of Virginia and the Army of the Potomac were inspired by devotion to principle: on the one hand the right of secession, on the other, the belief that the Union must be preserved.

Idealism

In 1917, this element of the American character was stimulated by the slogan, “War to End War” and “a War to Save Democracy,” and again the American people had as their leader a man, Woodrow Wilson, whose idealism was the traditional idealism of America. To such a degree was this true he was able to say, “Some people call me an idealist. Well, that is the way I know I am an American. America is the only idealistic nation in the world.”

JFK went on to discuss the difference between WWI and WWII and how our character, our idealism became tarnished due to extraordinary events. While the generation of Americans that faced WWI were morally supportive of that war WWII brought another generation new concepts like racial superiority, and monetarism, which made some less motivated and uncertain of our character.

It is now in the post war world that this idealism - this devotion to principle - this belief in the natural law - this deep religious conviction that this is truly God’s country and we are truly God’s people - will meet its greatest trial.

But, if we remain faithful to the American tradition, our idealism will be a steadfast thing, a constant flame, a torch held aloft for the guidance of other nations.

It will take great faith.

Our idealism, the second element of the American character, is being severely tested. Now, only time will tell whether the element of the American character will be true to its historic tradition.

Patriotism.

The third element of the American character that I would bring to your attention is the great patriotic instinct of our people.

From our pioneer days, perhaps because we were a people who developed from a beachhead on a tremendous continent, this American patriotism has always had as its core a strange and mystical love of the land.

From the birth of the nation to the present day, from the Heights of Dorchester to the broad meadows of Virginia, from Bunker Hill to the batteries of Saratoga, from Bergen’s Neck, where Wayne and Maylen’s troops achieved such martial wonders, to Yorktown, where Britain’s troops surrendered, Americans have heroically embraced the soldier’s alternative of victory or the grave. American patriotism was shown at the Halls of Montezuma. It was shown with Meade at Gettysburg, with Sheridan at Winchester, with Phil Carney at Fair Oaks, with Longstreet in the Wilderness, and it was shown by the flower of the Virginia Army when Pickett charged at Gettysburg.

In recent years it was shown by those who stood at Bataan with Wainwright, by those who fought at Wake Island with Devereaux, who flew in the air with Don Gentile. It was shown by those who jumped with Gavin, by those who stormed the bloody beaches at Salerno with Commando Kelly it was shown by the 1st Division at Omaha Beach, by the Second Ranger Battalion as it crossed the Purple Heart Valley, by the 101st as it stood at Bastogne, it was shown at the Bulge, the Rhine, and at victory.

Whenever freedom has been in danger, Americans with a deep sense of patriotism have ever been willing to stand at Armageddon and strike a blow for liberty and the Lord.

Individualism.

The American character has been not only religious, idealistic, and patriotic, but because of these it has been essentially individual.

The right of the individual against the State has ever been one of our most cherished political principles.

The American Constitution has set down for all men to see essentially Christian and American principle that there are certain rights held by every man which no government and no majority, however powerful can deny.

Conceived in Grecian thought, strengthened by Christian morality, and stamped indelibly into American political philosophy, the right of the individual against the State is the keystone of our Constitution. Each man is free. He is free in thought. He is free in expression. He is free in worship.

To us who have been reared in American tradition, these rights have become part of very being. Despite our desire for them to be universally exercised they are not. Still large sections of the world deny their people these rights as a matter of philosophy and as a matter of government.

We cannot assume that the struggle is ended. It is never-ending.

Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. It was the price yesterday. It was the price today, and it will ever be the price.

The characteristics of the American people have ever been a deep sense of religion, a deep sense of idealism, a deep sense of patriotism, and a deep sense of individualism.

A LESSON FROM OBSERVING the ASSASSINATION



Photo: From Google Images:JFK U.S. Naval Inspection, 1962

(4th July Special)

Over the years I’ve realized that there is a certain momentum of research continuing to surface from known and unknown journalist, scholars, conspiracy enthusiast and the like. I cannot say that I actually enjoy reading it or watching the videos either. But I feel it is my duty to try and learn as much about our country and people in my own time. When it comes to history I was taught to ask the question “why” instead of who. When it comes to the history of war Sun Tzu, the author of “The Art of War”, put it succinctly, “all warfare is a lie” (paraphrased).

My knowledge of deep politics began at some time during the 1990’s when one early morning before dawn I turned the radio dial to a Pacifica Radio Broadcast on L.A.’s Public Broadcasting Station. On Wednesday at midnight until 6 a.m. they ran a show dubbed Political Night whereby they play recordings and hold interviews of people devoted to seeking and finding out the truth.

From this program I discovered Col. Fletcher L. Prouty (deceased) who was the real Mr. X played by Donald Sutherland in Oliver Stone’s film, “JFK.” Prouty was a good lecturer and had awesome topics including his assessment of the JFK assassination, which goes far deeper than the feature film can reveal. He wrote the book, “J.F.K.: The CIA, Vietnam, and the Plot to Assassinate John F. Kennedy, Carol Publishing Group. (See http://www.prouty.org)

I also became very familiar with Dave Emory who usually opened each program with an interview providing current information on an ongoing lecture about fascist around the world. He was the first person to inculcate the idea from valid sources that in 1943 the Nazis had planned to take their movement underground to continue their efforts to unify white people around the world, particularly in America. Because he uses history to bring the past to the present his lectures range from deep politics world-wide, economic issues, and intrigues. See (www.Spitfirelist.com).

More recently I came upon other writers and their assertions to the ongoing search for truth. For example: An author named James Shelby Downard wrote an article called “King Kill/33rd Masonic Symbolism in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy”.(1987) It is spooky theory about the hidden princes of freemasonry and their use of magic, like onomatology or the science of names. His theory is that JFK was ritually murdered as a right sacrifice in order to further the cause to ultimately gain control our nation. There are many Masons in the world and he doubts that any of them even know about this highly secretive elite order that has special training in occult sorcery. JFK was singled out because he was Catholic and it was obvious he would stand in the way of any plans to move the world in the direction it seems to be going. The name Kennedy in onomatology means “goat head or wounded head”.
(See http://www.hoffman-info.com)

Another fantastic tale by the Christian website Pacific Institute goes out on another limb and explains that JFK was killed because he wanted do two very important things. First, he decided to pull 1000 troops out of Viet Nam after “The Report of McNamara - Taylor Mission to South Vietnam“ after the report strongly indicated we could not win there before 1963.

Second, he wanted to remove the Federal Reserve from out financial system. He could see long ago that if they continued to be an instrument of finance in this country we would wind up just where we now are: an indebted nation! JFK used his Constitutional powers as President to create our own money so that we would forever remain a solvent and sovereign nation. Both of these two actions went against the will of your very own Order of Jesuits who had been the initiators of the Viet Nam war and the creators of our Federal Reserve. Within days of his death a National Security Memorandum No. 278 substituted his orders to pull the troops out of Viet Nam and instead keep them there. The Jesuit Order , they write, is the single most powerful and richest organization in the world. Their reach into all aspects of American life is ominous not to mention deeply secretive. (See http://www.pacinst.com/terrorist/chapter8/kennedy.html ).

There was another amazing article distributed in 1969 as a draft titled the “Gemstone Files.” This essay basically talks of Kennedy boys trying to end corruption, but putting their noses into all kinds of organized crime and deep political intrigue, and thus interrupting the ebb and flow of some gangsters revenue and business development. From Cuba, Viet Nam, to Vegas they wanted to clean house. Some will assert that the Kennedy cause was a noble one and others will say they were protecting their own business interest. One of their enemies became a Greek shipping millionaire who also happened to own a popular soda company located in Vietnam, which by the way, had never produced a bottle of soda, but seem somehow to produce and distribute hard narcotics, like heroin!

The writer says that this shipping magnate wanted to run all things from the top and under the table in America. But to do that he needed to own one man: Howard Hughes. Good ol’ Howard had all the nifty politicians, accept the Kennedy’s, in his back pocket at that time. And without them the shipping magnate would a White House and Congress blockading him from expansion. So he had Howard kidnapped, doped up, and after hiding him on some island, he created this whole media world with Howard as an aloof supra-paranoid man living in a Vegas penthouse surrounded by the shipping magnates men. No one could get in or see the real Howard for years. Anytime they needed to make a public spectacle of Howard they had double walk around with the parade of eleven or so men so that he was completely covered. They’d continue to use Howard’s signature, business plans, and so on to keep all those nifty politicians ignorant. When a few reporters figured out what was going on, whiff, they’d have an accident and die. The writer makes a point of referring to shipping magnates organization as the Cancer Mafia. In a nutshell it was the shipping magnate who secretly ran the country after having the Kennedy boys killed. When asked why the wife of the former President would later marry the man who killed her husband the writer of that essay wrote that in old world mafia the man who kills the king can take his wife. The situation reminds me of the line in the Godfather when Michael Corleone says, “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.” Amen.

I’d like to refer you to that link as it is so fascinating, but the full-length version of that article has disappeared and now if you look up the title you find a ton of very brief synopsis, but no beef. Maybe someone optioned it for a movie deal.

Putting a cap on the bottle I’d have to say there are two key points that stand out to me reading all of these articles. First, JFK was probably viewed as a popular king by friend and foe. He was the head of a new time, a new way of thinking, and new way of doing things, from his foreign policy to domestic issues, like gender and race laws, and economics. In all of these categories America needed changes in order to progress, remain sovereign, and succeed into our future. Second, as President with a mind for the law and a Constitution he was using his established powers to help move those changes along. When he tried to act upon these powers in our system “outsiders” with influences on the inside took him and others out. Those sinister influences are not on hiatus. I recently read that since 1963, 115 witnesses have been killed, many by “accident”, others by “heart attacks” or “cancer”.

From 1990 - 1999 people I didn’t know, from Vegas to S. California would mention Jack to me. I was by this time, as you might imagine, worried about all kinds of things. I never got into talks with these people because I couldn’t tell if they really knew anything and wanted to share their feelings or prodding me to see what I know. I took the high-road and kept my mouth shut. I suspect there are a lot of “spooks” running around L.A. so its better to listen, smile and leave them with nothing. However, during my stay in Playa Del Rey a Greek deli owner found it fitting to say to me the following: “Jack thought he was the king, but he wasn’t, you see son?”

Finally, earlier this weekend I posted a link to another article from a man who has collected the names or professional military, science, engineering, and politicians who disagree with the findings of the government regarding what happened on 9/11. I also mentioned that some of the articles I’ve previously read suspect that that the assassination and 9/11 are not mutually exclusive. I did that because many of today’s articles seem to concur that the reason create fear that causes us to give up our freedom, and to destroy the Constitution. In the books of Daniel and Revelation of the King James Bible you will find prophecies that elaborate the fact a country like the U.S.A. will stand in the way of the Anti-Christ because of its Constitutional Amendments. That wonderful peace of paper and powers it induces is the linchpin keeping the world from going into deep chaos. If you are an atheist I’m not mad at you. I think you underestimate the volume of people from all statuses, genders, and races in this country who absolutely believe this country is blessed by God almighty. These people, past and present, feel this in their hearts.

So you see folks regardless of who the treasonous murderers might be; Mr. Devil cannot do his thing unless we are legally cut off from our freedoms. Once we have lost our freedoms no country in the world will be free.

Right now America stands out and leads many countries in Anti-Corruption categories (See http://report.globalintegrity.org/United States/2007. Try to focus your attention on who, what, and how politicians use words that undermine your freedoms. Strengthen your knowledge by reading the Constitution yourself. Maybe some of you will go on to do Constitutional Law. Perhaps some you will defend it by becoming Senators and persons of Congress. Remember freedom is not free.


Happy 4th of July. May you have peace, prosperity, and fewer problems

QUESTIONS FOR MR.JONES



Some weeks ago I stumbled upon a video on a sight called "Truth-Seekers", titled, "The Obama Deception". It ran for 1:15 minutes. It was powerful in its accusations and assertions. But after having time to think it through I have some criticism of a video that has recently been launched and is available for you to view.

The Obama Deception, by Mr. Jones, basically warns the American people that despite Obama's warm and fuzzy demeanor he actually serves some organizations that ultimately intend on undermining America by changing constitutional laws that give the President more power to invoke government organizations like FEMA, and HOMELAND SECURITY to reduce us to a slave republic with fewer individual rights. President Obama is nothing more than a "face" that we trust that unknowingly allows these unseen powers wield their stealth-like agenda over the land and subsequently take away our power as a people.

I have criticism on a variety of points. Let's start with the video itself. First I will say if Mr. Jones is really sincere about helping American's know the truth I offer my kudos. He is brave and fearless and he goes with his camera where few men will go. That alone makes me worry. The things he says about the President of this country and the accusations are so derisive that I have to wonder if some very powerful people aren't helping him out. Perhaps some of the same people who he claims are helping Obama.

You see if you do your research or if you read Wordshinobi you will learn what it means to know the unseen. Once you grapple with that then you will understand that the reality of life on this planet after the ancient times is that "what is white is black and what is black is white". What you think you see may be an illusion invented or created to keep you from knowing what is really going on. Would you put together a video like the "Obama Deception" and make those allegations without concern for your life thereafter? Mr. Jones must be a very powerful man in order to have us think that his truth is the truth and the governments truth is a lie. Isolate the facts and you will begin to see through the thin blur.

Another criticism about the video is this: Just because Mr. Jones says Senator Obama and Sen. Clinton's car was driving up into the hotel where the Bilderbergs were having a meeting does not mean that it is true. Examine the edits from wide-angle shots to close-ups yourself and you will get my point. It looks convincing, but so did the J.F.K. assassination Warren Report.

The video goes on to point out that it is the Bilderbergs, along with the Council of Foreign Relations, and The Trilateral Commission who are using President Obama to inculcate their unsavory agenda, which will remove our Rights under our Constitution for their own selfish purposes.

Maybe he is right? What if he is? I will assume that Mr. Jones are probably between the ages of 43-55. Any observant, sensitive, learned person in America already knows that the Trilateral Commission's name has been bounced around the Conspiracy Round Table since the Vietnam War. Furthermore, the Council of Foriegn Relations has been another powerful group whose activities have been documented in writ since the early 1990's; possibly earlier. The Bilderbergs (foreign investment) have been in the underground news with people like Dave Emory updating the American republic on their activities since the late 1990's. The difference between Dave Emory's efforts using oral reports and audio files, and Mr. Jones video effort is that Mr. Emory adheres to using source material to back up his points of view. Doing the same in a formatted video is tough, it makes the "Obama Deception" fall short of its goal.

Since the 1950's there have been people, groups, organizations, criticized for doing things that will undermine our freedoms. The only way any one would undermine or take our freedoms is to give complete power to themselves. Right? Since the early 1960's the Boo-gey-Man is waiting somewhere around the corner to cut your throat, drink your beer, steal your daughter, and take your freedoms away for good.



My point here is what I believe to be the weakest point of the Mr. Jones video; that is that he isn't sharing anything new. Ask any left-winger or liberal that has a mind and they will tell you I am right. My disgust is in the fact that Mr. Jones uses the web, and video technology to espouse a point of view to desecrate the halo ground of the White House. By serving us with the unfounded idea that Mr. President was performing treasonous acts prior to taking the oath of office. I personally find this offensive along with the President's face over a "white skull" in order to propose the idea that "the black man is nothing more than a high profile house nigger taking orders from whitey."

Even if it is right and true, do you want our foreign enemies to see this type of divisive broadcast world-wide on the internet. Any weakness our enemies can exploit via print, broadcast, social reformation, and all out war, they will. This is America, we are a big family, and some things should remain secret and for discussion by American only. This is why I posted "The Obama Deception" on Youtube for a little while. I did it to expose a journalist and broadcaster who obviously is using the President's popularity to bring attention to his viewpoints. Again I am not saying that Mr. Jones is entirely wrong here people. What I am saying is something is wrong with him for attacking the White House after only a few months into a new administration.

Remember this is not a President that sits on the throne with the conspiracy of illegal voting allegations, and Osama Bin Laden saying on video that the reason for the attacks of 911 is because of the Obama Family. President Obama won hands-down by the public of voters and the Electorate College. Yet Mr. Jones doesn't criticize the public or the college, nor Collin Powell, Sen. Edward and Caroline Kennedy, and other great Americans for helping him into the White House. No. He blames the President for bam-booz-ling us as if Mr. Powell, Mr. Kennedy complicit in Mr. Jones conspiracy.

As I mentioned before the organizations that Mr. Jones mentions that are using Mr. President as a puppet have been around making their moves for many years. They were there when former President G.W. Bush, Clinton, Bush, Carter, Nixon, L.B.J. and sadly J.F.K. were in the house. My further criticism is that he doesn't expose how these organizations may have effected those presidencies. He mentions the Bush family, but he doesn't use more ammo to make his case rock solid. But he does say that he thinks Mr. President is a good guy who is surrounded by people who are using him.

You have American Marines, Army, Navy, and Air Force who's lives are in danger and the last thing they need is one of our own weakening the public's view of what is happening in the White House just because you decided since we have a "different kind of President" you might as well stand up and take a big dump! We are all in this boat together Mr. Jones and your agenda hasn't been proven to help this county any more than your claim that President Obama's cannot.

You have decided that what you have to say in about an hour or two is going to change the direction of the wind right now. We are to in the words of Shakespeare, "take up arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them, to die and to sleep no more." Well...Mr. Jones you aren't selling anything new. You are going to have to dig much deeper now that you shot your wad off so soon.

Patriotism fails if it scares your supporters into lending support. We have agents, officers, soldiers on ground and air making sure that our American backs are covered, but we need to be on the same page. Now after a year of policy and decisions if criticism starts to capture the ears of the public it might be appropriate. But no, you put your point of view prematurely. I'd like to know your real agenda Mr. Jones. I know more than you know and as long as we people pray and faith in God power-mongers, liars, wanna-be-dictators will come and go. Besides we have a Constitution, if anything goes wrong, well Mr. Jones, you should know what we must do as American's if the shit hits the fan, or don't you?

But within 45 days of this man's office you are flooding the internet with this inconclusive video. Might a lawsuit be forthcoming for defamation of the Barack family name, if nothing else? This isn't courageous, it is foolish. Do you know how many courageous people there are in this country? Do you have any idea how many cowards there are? Do you think you have really helped this country by attacking the White House so soon. At least you could have waited until they did something to really prove your point. If the President is evil, you've given them resolve to try harder, be stronger, and not screw up. If Mr. President proves to be as magnificent as the polls showed him to be Mr. Jones, will you hit the latrines to clean up the bull-shiite you dumped on our American comfort zone.

People from on high and low have selected President Obama to be our quarterback. Give him the chance to show why he won the starting position. Right now America is on the defense. Why not allow the new White House to do their work before you start shouting fire, fire. If you read the Bible you know prophecy is going to take place whether you, Mr. Jones, are ready for it or not. There really is not much we people can do about that, now is there? I suspect Mr. Jones despite my appreciation for your attempt to right the wrong done to us is that you may have created a burden for yourself and others rather than setting us free.

THE ANCIENT IRISH: Dispelling Myth


Photo from the book "The Celtic Image," by Courtney Davis and David James.

The month of March will recently passed us. With its arrival came those seasonal swift winds, cold nights, warmer days, and the occasional snow fall. I recall when tulips began popping their beautiful petals from beneath the ground's surface. The strange unpredictable weather changes have all but altered that where I live. There will be the college basketball season's championships called March Madness too. Of course we can never leave out St. Patrick's Day. I began wondering who was St. Patrick. The answer to this question is fascinating.

St. Patrick, who's real name was Succat as a boy, the son of Calpernius, a Magistrate, was captured by Niall of Nine, Ard-High (High King) of Irish warriors and sold into slavery. After enduring much cruelty he managed to escape some two hundred miles up the coast until he found a ship of Irish Wolfhounds and their boatmen to take him back to his country. During his enslavement he learned to pray and lean on God and would later become Patrick ,the missionary to Ireland. Because of his successful and difficult work of converting a then pagan nation into Christianity with little ease or comfort of his own he is thus hailed St. Patrick.

I find it odd that this holiday is commemorated by huge swarms of pedestrians making haste to pubs around Europe and the U.S to drink alcohol. But life is full of paradoxes. For example, another odd character of Irish folklore are the 'fairy people, elves, and pixies'. We see them in cartoons entering and exiting tree trunks with pots of gold, and of course who can forget those boys on the cover of those Keebler cookie packages? No one in the varied countries I have visited has ever met a fairy, elf, or pixie, or at least they are staying mum about it. Nonetheless their images are pushed upon us, and the media certainly makes them out to be creatures we all know who tend to show up out of nowhere on St. Patrick's day along with the shamrock.

Most of us pay little attention to the fact that in the world Irish peoples have had a large legacy in the development of what we know as Western Civilization. When Rome burned the books and essay's that had been saved by schools and scholars in Europe it is the Irish monks who are credited with initiating a movement to save many books and journals for posterity. You can thank your college liberal arts education to them. These monks risked their lives so that the future of education would be liberal, instead of rigid, technical and one sided. As a student who has attended two Jesuit universities I both love and frown upon my western education. It tears me apart, while giving me great joy. This is due to the fact that the 'Church" before the years of Christ greatly influenced what people were allowed to read, and even who would be King. To make this agenda successful the 'Church' had to remove facts and figures, and manufacture legend and folklore of important peoples in order to become so powerful. Therefore, we have this ironic holiday called St. Patrick, to celebrate a Christian man's efforts whereby we meet in bars and fill up on the nectar called ale. Christian teachers have always disdained intoxication. Since there are no real fairies and elves why are they used as cultural icons to represent 'things Irish? I've already given you some hints right here in the first three paragraphs of this article. But we cannot stop there. Oh-no! Strap on your oxygen tanks, face mask, and flippers we're going deep (see) diving.

You see folks you live in two worlds. I don't mean that in a literal sense, but the fact is for thousands of years now there are entities, organizations, brotherhoods, that have benefited by you 'believing' things as they would have you see them rather than knowing the absolute truth. The movie "The Matrix" is probably a very good metaphor for what I am talking about. Because in that movie, Neo (or 'One' backwards) is forced by the system to wake up and realize that the world he thinks is real is a world manufactured to the extent that his senses believe it is real. And he has been socialized to believe that since he was barely out of his Momma's womb. The truth shall set you free. I call out to all of you who need and want the truth so that you can sense freedom. Ever since entities learned that words can be used to manipulate and influence your world we have been subjected to a good deal of historic 'word-magic' that when exposed makes little sense at all.

To paraphrase Laurence Gardner's writings in his book "Realm of the Ring Lords: The Myth and Magic of the Grail Quest"; we look at the origins of the word 'fairy' and find that it is derived from ancient times from the word 'phare', and is of the same root 'pharo' (pharoah), meaning a great house and specifically referencing a kingly dynasty. Another maligned word is Celt or Keltoi, a Greco-Roman word which meant 'strangers'. In other words it made no difference whether you were Spanish, African, or French, if you were in their land you were Celtic. People of Britain (Bretons) would not have called themselves Celtics because they were not strangers to themselves. In fact, it isn't until the 18th century that certain French writings began to refer to the Bretons, along with the Cornish, Irish, Manx, Welsh and generally Gaelic speaking peoples, as Celts, which thereby enveloped them into a fanciful society that had never existed in history.

Britain's Industrial Revolution didn't improve the situation either. The burgeoning nouveau-riche emerged. Among the new breed of employers where those who spared nothing to equate their newly acquired chieftainship with an imaginary past Golden Age. By immersing themselves in a romantic Celtic illusion they venerated the one-time tribal priestess Britannia as an attempt to cement some worthwhile ancestral status to justify their dominant labor intensive regime. Gardner points out that it was during his time that the true nature of Gaelic and ancient British culture became rudely idealized to the point that we have inherited a thoroughly Celtic myth. (109)

The same misuse of facts was used by early U.S industrialist to justify slavery with Darwin's thesis 'only the strongest survive.' They misinterpreted the hypothesis to mean that 'the economically strongest people survive'. Darwin meant 'that the strongest and most desirable gene pools are more likely to survive over time!' An earlier example of a similar ploy was the publication of a paper by a man named Compte de Gobineau, which espoused the concept that the blonder blue-eyed race were the noblest. This paper presaged the European slave trade and helped would-be slave traders do their jobs without apprehension since anyone darker than they were probably sub-human. Ah, the power and magic of words.

Fortunately the popularized image of the noble Celt - the tall blond, blue-eyed warrior or the flaxen haired maiden are not Celtic at all. Those qualities are of Nordic and Caucasian stock. The red-haired, green or pale-eyed Gaelic types were of noble Scythian origin. According to Herodotus, the fairies of the Tuadhe d'Anu were identified to be the Royal Scyths.(110)

In national terms, although fairies present a widespread image, they are particularly associated with Ireland, where they are epitomized by the ancient people of the Tuatha De' Danann. This formidable King tribe was, nevertheless, mythologized by the Christian monks, who rewrote the majority of Irish history to suit heir own Church's vested interest in Eire. From a base of monastic texts, which arose onwards from medieval times, it is generally stated that these people were the supernatural tribe of the pre-Achaean agricultural goddess Danae of Argos, or the Aegean Mother-goddess Danu. But their true name, rendered in its older form, was Tuadhe d'Anu. As such, they were the people of Anu, the great sky god of Annunnaki. It is often said that, in strategically mythologizing the heritage of this noble BC race, the Christian Church was responsible for dubbing them 'fairies', but this is not strictly true. The Tuadhe d'Anu were always fairies in the Ring Lord tradition, but what the Church did was redefine the word 'fairy'.(31)

It must be remembered that the Romans never conquered Ireland (Eire). In life it seems that if a powerful entity cannot conquer another then it resorts to false reports or disinformation on a grand scale in order to diminish their problem. That way the problem seems less unsurmountable or harassing. This is what the Church did with the Tuadhe d'Anu; they reduced the problem by diminishing the significance of this ancient king tribe and, in so doing, portrayed them as minute little figures who were moved into the realm of mythology. This act caused a parallel diminution of this ancient Irish tribes history so that their proud legacy is lost from the stage of Western education. (31)

From the year 751, the Church sought all possible measures to diminish the status of any royal strain emanating from the original Ring Lords so that the fraudulent Donation of Constantine could be brought into play. From that time, only the Church could determine who was and was not a king. (32)

Settling in Ireland from about 800 BC, the noble Tuadhe d' Anu hailed from the Central European lands of Scythia, the Black Sea kingdoms which stretched from the Carpathian mountains and Transylvania Alps, across the Russian River Don. They were strictly known as Royal Scyths and their classification as fates or fairies occurred because they were masters of a transcendent intellect called the Sidhe' (pronounced Shee), which was known to the Druids as the Web of the Wise. Druid was a Gaelic word meaning 'witch'- an English form of the Saxon verb wicce (feminine) or wicca (masculine), meaning to bend or yield, as do the willow or wicker woods. The Scythian warlords of the Sidhe' were also called Sumaire and, in language of old Ireland to where many of the caste migrated, the word sumaire was related to a coiled serpent! A serpent is used in the U.S coiled around a cross with a spherical top for the medical professionals today, and called Hippocrates.

In Sanskrit holy language of India, the wisdom derived from attaining the highest state of transcendent consciousness was called Siddhi, while the powers said to manifest themselves as a result of that achievement have been dubbed siddhis - a term which has been associated with Witchcraft and sinister magic. Thus, Sidhe' and Siddhi are one in the same, while the Tuadhe d' Anu of Scythia were the original fairies of history; they were considered to be the world's most noble race, alongside the early dynastic pharaohs of Egypt. It is by virtue of two particular Scythian-Egyptian royal marriages that the Scot Gaels or Ireland emerged. The first occurred in about 1360 BC, when Niul, Prince of Scythia, married the daughter of Pharaoh Smenhkare (also known as Akenkhere or Cinciris). Their daughter, Merytaten-Tasherit, became a Princess of Scythia (Princess Sco-ta = Ruler of people). The second Princesses Sco-ta was the daughter of Pharaoh Nekau (Nechonibus, c610-595 BC). She married Prince Galamh of Scythia (a descendant of the earlier Scota marriage) and their son, Eire Ahmon, was the ancestral forbear of the Scots Kings of Ireland, a branch of which eventually founded Scotland in the north or Britain.(33)

*A recently published feature article in National Geographic, February 2008 issue titled, The Black Pharaoh's: Conquerors of Ancient Egypt, offers some interesting facts in light of our current subject. First, in 2003 statues of Nubian Pharaoh's were dug up from the Nubian capital of Kerma, in Sudan. They were smashed during Egyptian King Psamtek II's incursion south around 593 BC. They are now reassembled for public view and stand 10 feet tall. Second, King Piye was the first of other black pharaohs that ruled over all of Egypt for three quarters of a century during that country's 25th dynasty. Although he died around 715 BC the Nubians are credited with unifying a splintered country and perhaps saving Jerusalem by fighting off the bloodthirsty Assyrians. By 1500 BC, the Nubian empire stretched between the Second and Fifth Cataracts. Racism was non-existent from the standpoint of pigmentation in those times. (35-44)

In reviewing Gardner's dates with regard to the royal Scyth-Egyptian marriages from 1360 BC could the royal genes of the Nubian Pharaoh's Mitochondrial DNA (passed on by Egyptian princess daughters) have been a factor in initiating the early Scots bloodline? According to National Geographic's current article mentioned above the Nubians took to the Egyptian way of life and used it as their own. In royal Egyptian marriages Kings and princes were allowed to have two wives and both would probably be half-sisters because females carried the Mitochondrial DNA that pass forward the royal genes from generation to generation although a male offspring can carry the genes too. Royalty was determined by birth for many years. What Mr. Gardner is suggesting is that the 'church' obstructed these bloodlines from moving forward and ruling. Even if there is no grounds for this insight the fact remains that in Rome's attempt to squelch any other de jure Kingly bloodline from 751 onward the old Irish fairies were a powerful opponent that needed to be subjugated. And subjugated they were simply because those old Tuadhe d'Anu would never have allowed themselves to be suppressed into the Church's attempts to recreate royal lineages for their own sake.

You have heard of King Arthur. There are numerous stories being written about him. All of them different and all claiming their history offers the truth as to who the real King Arthur was. For example Lucius Artorius Castus, the 3rd generation successor to Cornish-born namesake Castus could perhaps be the historical King Arthur. This premise is due to the notion that the name Arthur is Latin and derived from Artorius. This is a complete misconception which has been fueled by those who endeavor to diminish the heritage of the native Bretons against that of the temporary Roman overlords. Going back to 356-323 BC during the Macedonian empire of Alexander the Great an attempt was made to cement the Greek, Roman, or Macedonian Imperialist dogma into the minds of their captives. Students of British schools were indoctrinated with the classical works of Homer and Virgil, and Greek and Latin languages. King Arthur and even Jesus were put forth as having been the sons of Roman officers in those times. (Realm of the Ring Lords, Gardner, 92-93)

You see, folk there were in fact two Arthur's which lived hundreds of years apart. One of them was very popular and the other was not, but in the literature that was published many years later the writers ended up combining both characters into one and thus we have this romanticized character, a King, a Warrior, a Savior, named King Arthur who epitomizes the very aspect of chivalry and leadership. At the same time there seems to be a good deal of confusion about his true origins and some misuse of his legacy for tourist attractions.

The name 'Arthur' is wholly Irish, emerging from he Scythian-Milesian 'Artur'. It was not derived from the Latin Artorius (meaning bear-like). The 3rd -century sons of King Art, for example, were Cormac and Artur. As pointed out the Romans never conquered Ireland and Irish names were not influenced in any way by the Romans. The root of the name Arthur can be found as far back as the 5th - century BC when Artur Delmann was King of Lagain. Long afterward Augustus Caesar established the Roman Empire in 44 BC. By AD 476 the Empire had crumbled to extinction in the West, nearly a hundred years before King Arthur of Briton was born.

In her best selling novel, "The Mist of Avalon", Marion Zimmer Bradley (deceased), wrote a story about the royal women in the life King Arthur. It is a tale of his mother and grandmother, Ygraine or Ugraine and Viviane del Acqs, who are considered to be fairy folk with strange powers like the 'sight'. From time to time they need to retreat to the Isle of Avalon. It is an island that is hidden by the dragon's breath (mist), and cannot be seen by 'ordinary folk', where they restore themselves from the onslaught of that new thing called "Christianity". These women have close contact with the Druid named Merlin and together use a mystical pagan rite of initiation for Ygraine's son Arthur when it is his time to be King. Although they are not dwarfs or miniature people these royal women are trained in the ways of the old dark-skinned 'fairy folk', which makes them outsiders despite their royal lineage.

The novel pits Arthur who was born of these royal women among the ancient people of Breton, and their need for him to protect their old pagan way of life from the oncoming changes the Christian world is forcing upon them. They have one problem, however. During the ancient ritual of initiation Arthur, who is dressed in a Stag costume unknowingly makes love to his estranged sister Morgana, who is also dressed in an foe costume. Morgana becomes secretly pregnant with the King's son, Modred. Arthur goes on to wed Gwenefyr who is infertile. For years he is unaware that he has a son named Modred because his mother, Ugraine, and Grandmother Viviane, feel uncomfortable telling him that he was used in an ancient ritual of consummation with his sister Morgana to keep the royal 'fairy' bloodline alive! For years he struggles questioning God as to why he has not had a son by his Christian wife Gwenefyr. Poor Gwenefyr, with her inability to bare-forth children feels useless and takes up a love affair with Lancelot who in real life was a descendant of the old 'fairy folk', and actually a relative of Arthur's'. Lancelot is called out for his indiscretions by other Knights of the Round Table and flees in shame. While Arthur continues his rule with a broken-heart.

Arthur, who was a great admirer of Jesus, was not raised by his true 'fairy' mother, but by another King in a distant country to keep him safe from his father, Uther the Pendragon's, enemies. With his Christian upbringing he never learned the meaning of his. ancient bloodline because as we know the old ways were considered 'witch-like or evil'. Despite their good intentions his mother, his grandmother, and Merlin put him into an untenable situation with his sister Morgana. Thus, as fate would have it Arthur and Modred, his son, war against each other rather than bond like father and son. Modred feels that the King has abandoned their people, his mother, and he. In his attempt to proclaim his rite to the throne Modred angers his father who doesn't realize that he is his son, but thinks him to be a young usurper with false claims. If only Arthur had known what it means to know the unseen.

While Mrs. Bradley's novel is fiction it nonetheless does a wonderful job of using allegory to paint a vivid picture the end of magical pagan world and the beginning of the Christian world. By virtue of Arthur and Modred's murder of each other we are left with the message that neither world can exist without acceptance of each other. As the character Merlin points out in the John Borman's movie, Excalibur: "Our ways are gone. It is the time of Man". Merlin explained to Arthur earlier in the film that in older times Man and Beast were one. But, now he and the Druid's are forced to give themselves over to the new times of one God. Which means that observing the ancient Egyptian rite of marriage or sexual relationships with half-sisters to bare heirs that would carry forth the 'bloodline' would be nothing less than incest.

You see, in the old Egyptian ritual to have princes and kings breed with half-sisters in order to carry forth the Mitochondrial DNA of their royal lineage was a practice that I think Mrs. Bradley (the author) was trying to reveal without elaborating on its origins. This is a novel I read it during my attendance at Loyola Marymount University, a Jesuit school. The power of her writing in this novel gave me the insight that a good deal of truth is being espoused in the form of fiction, while a great deal of fiction is being put forth as fact. Look at the first paperback edition cover of 'Mist of Avalon'. There is a female riding a white horse carrying Arthur's sword 'Caliburn', which is better known as Excalibur. Her skin is dark and her hair his wavy and black. She looks Latin, or Indian, or is she secretly meant to be a real representation of a 'fairy' as only Irish folk, ancient royal Scythians blended with the Pharoah DNA, would know? Those of you digging truth would do well to reexamine fantasies in literature such as Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings", and the story of Dracula, by Bram Stoker, just to name a few.

By the early 'Church's diminution of the Tuahde d'Anu the succession of royal births by their custom probably became illegal or perhaps viewed as Satanic! Royal birth's by this manner would have become the target of attack rather than celebrated community events. The fact still remains, however, that it is impossible to forward royal DNA without making a child with a female that carries the gene. That complication has led to a good deal of nefarious activities, including assassination, for many years to come as the quest for King and Queen making continued.

Even though St. Patrick's Day may seem trivial to many of us throughout the English speaking world, the USA, Canada, and Great Britain, the fact is the Irish peoples throughout Christianity and before have a very deep and incredible history that has been diminished for reasons most of us were excluded from seeing. The true Fairies are not little magical people who live in a netherworld. But instead are descendants of a King tribe; a warrior people, who despite other's efforts have great traditions to uphold throughout time.

So as another St. Patrick's day comes around what will ye do? Will ye take the blue pill and continue to live in a realm of fantasy or will ye take the red pill and become a minority of awakened people with raised consciousness in the world? I took the red pill long before the Matrix movie came out. I swallowed it with the help of a pint of Guinness and good luck wish from the ghost of Macbeth! Now if only I were a wee bit smaller so that I could live rent free in a tree, with my magic bird, Fay-Wren, and a pot of gold, life would be just dandy.

A FEW GREAT THINGS YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE



Photo of Bill Pickett from the book, "The Black West," by William Loren Katz.

SLAVERY- The Century Dictionary says, "Originally one of the Slavs or Slavonians taken in war." Slav originally meant "the people of glory".

For the transportation of white slaves to America and their sale see, James Oneal: The Workers in American History, Chap. "The White Slave Trade." He quotes: "One ship sailing...in 1745 with 400 Germans of whom only 50 lived to see free America. Still another bearing 1500 lost; 1100 from deaths on the voyage." (p.64, New York, 1921.) Pastor Kunze, writing at that time said, "packed like herring and sold as slaves." J.B. McMaster, noted historian says of white slaves, "The newcomer became in the eyes of the law a slave and in both the civil and the criminal code was classed with the Negro slaves and Indians...They were worked hard, were dressed in the cast off clothes of their owners and might be flogged as often as the master or mistress thought necessary." In other words, the exploiters were no respectors of color or race! (p.35)

THE ARTS - The Negro was the first artist. The oldest drawings and carvings yet discovered were executed by the Negro peoples over 15,000 years ago in S. France, N. Spain, Palestine, S. Africa, and India. The drawings on rocks, the carvings on bone: basalt and ivory.

The oldest known representation of the human body is that of a Negro woman. It was carved by a Negro sculptor of Grimaldi race from 10-15,000 years ago. It is called, "Venus of Willendorf" after the place in Austria where it was found, and is in the Vienna Museum.

Beethoven, the world's greatest musician, was without a doubt a dark mulatto. He was called "The Black Spaniard." His teacher, the immortal Joseph Haydn, who wrote the music for the former Austrian National Anthem, was colored too.( p. 4)

ANCIENT CIVILIZATION - The Grimaldi, a Negro race, lived in Europe as late as 12,000 years ago. Two complete Grimaldi skeletons are in the Museum of Monaco, near Monte Carlo. Abundant traces of their culture have been unearthed in Southern and Central Europe. (p. 4)

The present Negro race of Africa perhaps did not originate there, but Asia and Oceania. The earliest inhabitants of Africa were not black but brown. Today the peoples of mixed and unmixed Negro descent living in Asia and Oceania probably exceed in number the present Negro population of Africa. India has millions of Negroes. The purest Negro types are in Southern Asia. In 1923, Dr. Joseph Rock, U. S. Department of Agriculture discovered a hitherto unknown Negro race, the Nakhis, 200,000 in number, in Southern China. In 1934, E. W. P. Chinnery dicovered an unknown Negro people in New Guinea, near Australia. He reports that they have a cvilization superior to their neighbors, who live under white rule. (p. 5)

SCIENCE AND INVENTION- Jan Ernest Matzeliger, a Dutch West Indian Negro living in Lynn, Mass; invented the first machine for sewingthe soles on shoes to the uppers. This invention, which was eleven year in the making, revolutionized the industry and gave shoe supremacy to the U.S. It made several millionaires, one of whom left $4,000,000. to Harvard University. Over work and privation hastened Matzeliger to his grave in1889 at the age of 37. He left a few shares of stock to a white church, which later save it from being sold for debt.

MEDICINE- Imhotep of Ancient Eygypt, was the real Father of Medicine. He lived about 2300 B.C. Greece and Rome had their knowledge of medicine from him. In Rome he was worshipped as the Prince of Peace in the form of a black man. Imhotep was the Prime Minister to Kind Zoser as well as the foremost architect of his time. The saying, "Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we die," has been traced to him. Hippocrates, the so-called "Father of Medicine" lived 2,000 years after Imhotep.

Aben Ali, an African Negro, was private physician to Charles VII, King of France (1403-1465). When the king fell dangerously ill at Toulouse, Aben Ali was sent for and cured him. Thereafter the king made him a member of his suite.

Dr. C. Tavares, an African Negro, was the private physician to King Carlos I of Portugal until te latter's death in 1908.

Dr. Daniel Williams, Chicago surgeon who did in 1931, was the first to perform a successful operation on the human heart. (p.7)

POLITICS- France has had six colored Cabinet Ministers; Severiano de Heredia 1887; Senator Henri Lemery,1915-1918, and 1934; Alcide Delmont, 1928; Blaise Diagne, 1931: Gratien Candace, 1932; Gaston Monnerville, 1937. De Heredia, as Minister of Public Works, built some of France's finest roads.

Eugene Chen, one themost dynamic political figures of the present century, and Minister of Foreign Affairs for China in 1927, was born of Chinese Negro parentage in Trinadad, West Indies, in 1878. He was also the first secretary to Dr. Sun Yat Sen, first President of China.

RACE MIXING- Persina, a Queen of Ethiopia, 60 B.C., presenter her husband, Hydaspes with a light-colored child, "which color is strange among Ethiopians." She declared that it was due to the presence of a white statue in the room at the time of conception. Similarly Maria Theresa of Spain and Austria, wife of Louis XIV, King of France, bore him a mulatto daughter in 1665. The Queen, spent most of her time with a Negro dwarf, named Nabo, while the King passed most of his with the beauties that thronged his court. The doctors explained the color of the child by saying that the black man looked at the Queen. "It must have been a very penetrating look," said the King, wrathfully. A noted writer of the time attributed the color of a similar child, born to a high noblewoman, to the mother's fondness for chocolate.

Anna, a Negro servant girl of Calavecchio, Italy, wife of a white mule-driver, became the concubine of Pope Clement VII. Her son, Alessandro, born 1511, became reigning Duke f Florence, and married Margaret, only daughter of the Emperor Charles V, ruler of Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain in 1536.

White America slave-holders used to induce white women to marry Negro slaves in order to hold the women slaves for life.

Thomas Jefferson...

In 1787 while a party of 351 freed Negroes was aboard ship at Portsmouth, England, enroute to Sierra Leone, West Africa, the authorities brought on board sixty-two white women, prostitutes and others, whom they wished to get rid of, and married them to as many men, and sent them off to be the future mothers of the colony.

The Countess de Beauharnais, who wa related by marriage to Napoleon, married a full-blooded Haitian Negro, named Castaing, who was a member of the Paris Convention of 1792-1795.

RELIGION- The oldest and most noted statue in the world bears the face of a Negro. It is the Sphinx of Gizeh, which was worshiped as Horus, or Harmachis, the Sun-God of Light and Life. It was erected about 5,000 B.C.

Nearly all of the ancient gods of the Old and New World were black and had woolly hair. Buckley says, "From the woolly texture of the hair I am inclined to assign to the Buddha of India; the Fuhi of China; the XAHA of the Japanese; and the Quetzelcoatl of the Mexicans, the same and indeed an Africa, or rather, a Nubian origin." In the Bible, God, or the Ancient of Days, is described as having "hair like the pure wool." The earliest statues of the Virgin Mary and Christ in Europe as far north as Russia, were black and Negroid.

All of these amazing facts are from A.J. Rogers "100 Amazing Facts About the Negro: With Complete Proof.". 1957, and 1985. Author of the incredible book "Sex and Race."

BLACK MONEY: A Tale of Two Trunks


Some years ago I began getting serious about my writing career by using the internet as a vehicle to promote myself. My motivation was and is that I have a book for sale on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and now many other online book e-commerce sites.

It's taken a few years and also the effort of writing other articles of interest just so readers won't think I am a one horse-Charley. That effort, especially the past two years is beginning to pay off. Particularly in the area of gaining larger numbers of new friends on social networking sites. The end result is having more emails and future readers for my market. But there is a price. The price is that there is a lot of information on the internet about me in an age of Cyber-crimes like I.D. theft, and money laundering scams. Read for example my experience regarding two trunks of money worth about $10,000,000.00.

The tale of two trunks started on www.myspace.com/deepfocusdarrellhamilton. A single man can get a lot of action from internet whores if he is looking for it. Even though I rarely search for new "Friends" I'd get these emails from new females who have one photo and have done little or nothing to develop their sites image. They always say that they have looked over your profile and think you might be a possible catch for a future together. Also they always want you to email them at their personal email (usually yahoo) so your communication can be more intimate and personal. There is also the lure of them offering to send you more photos. This setup has occurred to me at least a dozen times during the first 60 days of my joining Myspace.

If I thought the women were attractive I'd return their email using an unknown encrypted email service on Hushmail.com. Not one female returned a response to those emails. However, when I wrote a few from my Hotmail address they'd respond immediately. Once she was sure I was single and had a background worth indulging in she sent several more pictures. The woman was more beautiful than I imagined. We exchanged emails, nicknames, crushes over 4 correspondences. During that time I noticed two things:

1. She'd change her name several times.
2. The grammar and style of writing was radically different than before.

When I mentioned this and threatened to never email her again she apologized and began to seek a variety of situations that might arouse my sympathy. For example, she was alone in Nigeria, and her parents died a few years ago in a car accident. What this women didn't know is that I had already received other emails from other women whose photos showed them to be W.A.S.P with last names like Adams, Casey, Smith. Yet all of them were in Nigeria and each of them had lost their parents on the road. All of them were around 23-28 and very attractive women. I mean, sure I used to draw the ladies like Elvis, but even I get hit on by a few ugmoes!

Suddenly the emails shifted to me helping the poor little lady. She was in Nigeria to recover money her father, an independent oil man, had hid in Nigeria in two trunks. She said it was about $345,000,000.00. Ha! I wrote her back telling her you can't stuff that many USD bills in even two of the biggest trunks. $10,000,000.00 is stretching it given the size and dimensions you have to work with. She had already paid part of the shipping fee, which allowed the security company to move the trunks from Nigeria to somewhere in New Hampshire. Next she emailed me the Certificate of Deposit. All I had to do was pay the remaining shipping fee of 560 British Pounds, which is equal to about $800.00 and the Shipping Manager would deliver the trunks to me within 2-3 days. Whoopey! And afterward I had the added pleasure that she was going to come live with me so that we can spend the money together. My cut? 20% of the uncertain amount. You see when I'd ask her specific questions like what the actual amount was she'd ignore my request. Once I told her I was unemployed and that I couldn't possible come up with that kind of money for her, even though she loves me.

Sadly the correspondences faded out. Only to begin from another source far more sophisticated than my beloved in Nigeria. This guy used the pity scheme and portrayed himself as a lawyer. He had a code for me to email that to assure our confidentiality. Basically it was desired by his client, an elder woman who was dying of cancer, for me to become her power of attorney and donate her $10,000,000.00 dollars to anyone I'd like. For my trouble I'd get 30%. That's $3,000,000.00. He sent me his version of a Windows legal template as a Power of Attorney sealed with a Notary Public. Of course there was no way to determine the seals were real, just his word. Then a Certificate of Deposit arrived. None of the signatures were legible, and the company, Investature Financial and Security Co. of U.K., had no working website even though their name is posted in many places. Everything stopped when there was a fee to be paid for the shipping, to the sound of $2850.00

The company would ship the money directly to me, and give me the keys and combination to open the trunks to reveal if the money is actually there. Yeah, like seeing a top stack of money is a guarantee that the rest of the trunks were filled with money too. After I okayed that we, that is the security men and I, would drive road to my bank and thus deposit the $10,000,000.00. Seems pretty dramatic when they could just deposit the money in their bank account and wire the doe for far less cost. The money would be vaulted and insured. But no...they had to deliver it. Eventually I got bored with the said attorney's gambit. Even though he wrote fairly good letters.

You can check out this topic on the web by searching under money laundering, trunks of money. There is plenty of research and advice. The point is if you are going to do a lot of web work remember you will be exposing who you are unless you, like me, use aliases and disinformation, balanced carefully with your truths. Whether the scams are originating in Nigeria or U.K. makes no difference. The fact is we don't want them to have too much information to gain by "phishing" online for it. That gives them the chance to profile you very carefully, and pattern their scam with information you may actually believe. Protect yourselves. Be a shark in those cold waters, baby.
