New World Order 2007
NAFTA: The Shocking "Rest of the Story" The Cutting Edge - NAFTA was sold to the American public as a brilliant economic plan. Very few people realize that they have just witnessed Biblical prophecy occurring before their unsuspecting eyes!! In the News!! "Executive approval: Survey of American, Mexican, and Canadian executives show they feel the North American Free Trade Agreement has been successful in improving trade and logistics. CEO's and other senior executives at 250 U.S., Canadian, and Mexican companies see far more positives than negatives to the two-year old North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)". {Industry Week, April 1, 1996, V245, N. 7, page 48}. "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times". With these words, the classic novel, "Tale of Two Cities" began, a novel set in the midst of the French Revolution. Today, the same thing could be said for Christians. While we are living in the worst time in American history in terms of declining moral standards, declining traditional faith, and economic stress, we are also living in the most exciting time in history. Since Israel was reborn as a nation in 1948, thus beginning the End of the Age countdown, all the signs of the End of the Age have been occurring together. In the past, many of these signs were seen individually, such as rampant wars, widespread disease, earthquakes, but they never occurred simultaneously as they have now been occurring. Christians who know their Bibles should be very excited, because all our beliefs concerning the accuracy of the Bible are coming to pass, in the daily news, right before our eyes. This is the purpose of The Cutting Edge, to show you how you can see this advance to the Tribulation period right before your eyes, in your daily news. The Biblical term, "Tribulation" or "Great Tribulation" now has a secular name, The New World Order. Their plans to achieve this new order so parallel Biblical prophecy that, if you were to envision all Biblical prophecy about the End of the Age as a photograph, then the plans for The New World Order could be thought of as the negative, producing the positive picture! Today's news concerns NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, created two years ago, which economically joined Canada, the United States, and Mexico. Most Americans think of NAFTA simply and only as an Economic Entity, because that is the only context in which the media has ever portrayed it. However, the leaders of The New World Order have long been following a plan to recreate the many nations of the world into 10 Super Nations. And, not surprisingly, this Plan fulfills Biblical prophecy! Let us first begin with the New World Order Plan to create 10 Super Nations. In 1957, Alice Bailey, then the leader of the House of Theosophy, wrote in her collection of writings, "The Externalisation of the Hierarchy", that the world must first be reorganized into Spheres of Influence before it could be organized into a Global government (Page 209). She made it very clear that this reorganization would not follow traditional national boundaries, but would be a completely different organization. Bailey did not specify how many "Spheres of Influence" would be created, but her plan was fleshed out in 1974, by New World Order authors, Mihajlo Mesarovic and Eduard Pestel, in a book entitled, "Mankind At The Turning Point". They wrote that the world would be reorganized into 10 Super Nation States, listed below. 10 SPHERES OF INFLUENCE -- NATIONAL REORGANIZATION
Remember, this New World Order Plan
was published in 1974. Firmly set this date in your mind, as it will
become very important in just a few paragraphs. The first question is
"Why 10 Nation specifically?" The answer lies in a knowledge of the
spiritual beliefs of the Occult. They believe that man is to be
spiritually "perfected" by undergoing the process of "Illumination" by
achieving a long, arduous study of "Hidden Truth". Once a man is totally
perfected, he is pictured as standing "upright" next to, but
uncontrolled, by his world. This perfected man is thought of as the
Number 1, while the world is pictured as a zero (0). Thus, the number 10
forms this picture of perfected man standing apart from his world. The
number 10 is a very important symbolic number to the occultist. ("Magic
Symbols", Frederick Goodman, Brian Todd Publishing House, London, 1989,
p. 46-47). Therefore, when the occultic leaders of the New World Order
devised their plan to reorganize the world into Spheres of Influence,
they acted in accordance with their occultic beliefs in deciding to
create 10 Super Nation states. They were creating a New World Order,
which, by its very structure, screamed to the peoples of the world, "We
have created the 'Perfected" world organization, of 10 Super Nations".
The symbolism is powerful: they are the "Perfected" men, standing apart,
but controlling, the world. Ten had to be the number; Occult Doctrine
demanded it. But, this Plan also fulfills a most important Biblical
prophecy. This prophecy was given to the prophet, Daniel, approximately
2,500 years ago, and is the only prophecy which gives a sequence
of events which God foretold would flow from this creation of
the world into 10 nations. Hang on to your hat, for we are going on an
exciting ride. First, let us review the prophecies. The Bible foretells
in Daniel that there is a sequence of events which will foretell the
appearance of Anti-Christ. Turn with me now to Daniel 7:7-8, remembering
that Daniel is talking here of the End of the Age. Consider the
Scripture: "After this I saw in
the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and
strong exceedingly ...and it had 10 horns. I considered the horns and,
behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there
were three of the first plucked up by the roots..." These 10 horns are
further explained in Daniel 2:41 and Revelation 17:12. These prophecies
are quite clear in predicting that the world in the last days of time,
during the Great Tribulation will be reorganized into 10 Super Nation
States, or 10 Regions. This is a shocking revelation, since the world
has been controlled by individual sovereign nations since the Tower of
Babel 5,000 years ago. Today, there are over 170 sovereign nations in
the world today. A new governmental structure is being silently erected
over these 170+ sovereign nations Before our very eyes, a new government
is being erected; this plan, originally published in 1974 in "Mankind At
The Turning Point", is being implemented. And when it is finally
implemented, it will fulfill this Biblical prophecy of 10 Nations at the
End of the Age. Therefore, you see, NAFTA is not simply an economic
super nation; rather, it is Nation #1 of this 10 Nation New World Order.
Very few people understand this, because they have been conditioned by
our national leadership, aided by our national mass media. No one has
ever explained this before. Now, you can understand why Presidents as
seemingly dissimilar in world view, style and philosophy as Presidents
Bush and Clinton could support the creation of NAFTA. President George
Bush began the push to create NAFTA, but was unable to see it created
before he left for office. President Clinton supported NAFTA, even
though he opposed nearly every other thing for which Bush stood. At this
point, I am going to state a truth which I have carefully enunciated in
my radio programs, and which I will soon state again: The New World
Order Plan was created officially in 1776, and has been consistently
supported by Presidents ever since. In this 20th Century, nearly every
President, both Democratic and Republican, has secretly supported the
Plan for The New World Order. It has not mattered whom we have elected,
because both political parties are united in this drive to accomplish
this Plan. Generally, Republican Presidents have concentrated on changes
in the Foreign Policy field, while Democratic Presidents have
concentrated on the needed changes in Domestic Policy. But, whether we
have a Republican or Democratic President, the New World Order Plan
continues unabated. NAFTA is one example of a Foreign Policy change
initiated by a Republican President and continued by a Democratic
President. more...
Huckabee Exposed as New World Order Puppet The National Expositor (December 29, 2007) - Mike Huckabee recently named Richard Haas (the President of the CFR) as his advisor on foreign policy. CNN's WOLF BLITZER asked "Who are your principal foreign policy advisers, Governor?" Mike Huckabee responded: "Well, I have a number of people from whom I get policy. I'm talking to Frank Gaffney, I talk to Richard Haas.." So what does Richard Haas believe in? Here's an article below which was written by Haas for the Tapei Times. It basically states the Bill of Rights and Constitution should be given up in favor of a cooperative world body run by elite consensus. Who needs individual rights in the techno-futuristic world police state? And you thought liberty was in jeopardy now? Just wait till you see what your children will have to deal with. Get activated folks, These police state freaks want to shape your future into a control grid enforced through the fear based reaction to state sponsored false flag terror.

NAFTA Cementing a North American Union News
With Views (December 29, 2008) -
Millions of
Americans are now aware of the plan for a North American Union (NAU)/Security
and Prosperity Partnership (SPP). This awareness came via the Internet
thanks to
Phyllis Schafly and Dr. Jerome Corsi (video).
Lou Dobbs has given it an extraordinary amount of exposure during his
shows on CNN; the rest of CNN ignores it. The silence by ABC, CBS,
NBC, MSNBC, and FAUX (FOX) "news" networks has been
deafening. The attack by legends in their own minds, i.e.,
pusillanimous individuals like Michael Medved, have been remarkable
and a shame upon their so-called profession.
If you are not familiar with this final step in
the complete and total destruction of our sovereign republic, I strongly
recommend you
go to this web site and watch this
fully documented and factual slide presentation on this plan which I
call treason. The definition of treason is: disloyalty or treachery to
one's country or it's government. Treason is any attempt to overthrow
the government or impair the well-being of a state to which one owes
allegiance; the crime of giving aid or comfort to the enemies of one's
government. I don't believe it is inappropriate to use the word treason
when it comes to this plan to integrate America into one region with all
the trappings of totalitarian government. We are now starting to see the
provisions kicking in at hyper speed to finally destroy these united
States of America and let me lay it out crisp and clear: The destruction
of NAFTA was felt within the first 18 months and has continued to
destroy our sovereignty and job bases ever since. In the first few
years, over 4,000 factories closed down, small towns became dying towns.
To date MILLIONS of jobs have been lost with more all the time because
of
the evil called out sourcing. America continues to lose in the fair
trade arena; instead we are steadily being crushed by the evil of "free"
trade. In 1995, American businesses were notified by the IRS that that
under NAFTA, they would have to make all of their federal employment
taxes by electronic transfer;
view this document here. Why? The same reason we the people are
being taxed to death to pay for new infrastructure inside Mexico:
one world government. One worker base of three countries merged into
one region, all under the same homogenized laws.
Despite the massive invasion of illegal aliens
crossing over our borders, neither Marxist Bill Clinton or globalist
George Bush, made any effort to stop it and millions of Americans -
especially post 911 - simply could not understand why Bush has
steadfastly refused to do what President Eisenhower
did so effectively. Many of us who have
been in the trenches for decades knew and now millions more know: a
North American Union means just that. No borders, no sovereign nations,
just one big region for these diabolically evil men and women who lust
for raw power to rule over us and they don't care who they destroy on
their path to supreme imperialism. more...
Big Brother on Stage: What Kind of Actor is the EU? A
Time, Times, and Half a Time (December
25, 2007) -
Rafael Dochao Moreno,
principal administrator of the Euro-Med Partnership, when asked the
question why Spain chose to launch the Alliance of Civilizations
initiative at the United Nations rather than the European Union
responded that the “Barcelona process is already an AoC…why
do we need an AoC?” Moreno’s response reminded those of us
who have been following the Barcelona Process what we’ve already
known--that the Alliance of Civilizations is a
key aspect for the European foreign policy.
The Barcelona Process, introduced in 1995 by Spain’s Javier Solana,
contained a social cohesion strategy which had a goal to combat
religious fundamentalism worldwide. The Alliance of Civilizations is
merely a vehicle for such activity. Right from the start, the AoC
was intended to form the
core of the global counter-terrorism strategy.
Before the cartoon crisis (in which Spain’s Zapatero, Moratinos,
Federico Mayor, and Solana so authoritatively rose to the occasion
to turn
crisis into opportunity),
Spain’s foreign minister had
introduced the idea of the AoC as a tool to combat terrorism.
Incidentally, although no group has ever stepped forward to claim
responsibility or offer rationale for inciting the cartoon crisis,
blame was assigned to “religious extremists” along with the claim
that they seek to provoke a clash of civilizations. There is only
one group that has reaped tremendous political benefit from the
cartoon crisis--it almost reminds me of the Reichstag fire. In a
previous blog post we examined the
Club of Madrid’s 2005
counter-terrorism strategy. As I reviewed the conference pictures
and
list of participants, I
noticed linkages to those who put forth the EU Social Cohesion
Policy and the Alliance of Civilisations initiative. It is not
surprising then that the Madrid Agenda contains identical objectives
to those of the
European Union’s Counter-Terrorism Strategy.
Europe’s counter-terrorism strategy was presented to the
June 2003 Thessalonika European Council
by Javier Solana. Solana’s counter-terrorism strategy, which was
incorporated into the security strategy
A Secure Europe for a Better World,
addresses combating strategic terrorism as its primary objective.
Recall in
Part I of my
counter-terrorism article that strategic terrorism has been
attributed to religious beliefs in which one accepts an
“exclusivist” truth claim. An examination of the EU
counter-terrorism documents yields the same definition. But here we
see the lion’s teeth of militarization. There is an interesting
paragraph in the Thessalonika document which reads: “…the Danish Presidency decided to commission a group of Ministers' personal representatives to submit an analysis of the phenomenon of extreme fundamentalism and terrorism…The final report has been submitted and will be further discussed within the Council with a view to taking forward its recommendations.” “In most fundamentalist transnational terrorist violence, the perpetrators tend to view the front line to be between Israel and the United States, on the one hand, and the Islamic world on the other. It involves the dispute about the US occupation of holy areas either itself or through proxies such as the authoritarian regimes of Saudi Arabia and Persia, or Israel. According to the report of the Extreme Fundamentalism and Terrorism Group (EFTG) the settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would have a very important positive impact on the struggle against extreme fundamentalism and terrorism.”This is consistent with the Alliance of Civilizations’ statements as during the Doha debates Israel’s government was named an extremist regime. Regarding fundamentalism, the EFTG says: "Fundamentalism has been defined as an attitude where non-negotiable principles are introduced to politics from a transcendental source, holy texts or a divine discourse. “From the point of view of fundamentalism, religion expresses a divine order, which ideally embraces all life spheres. Although this may simply lead fundamentalists to encapsulate their own existence around their religious beliefs (“Quietism”), they will most often actively pursue the goal of seeking other life spheres, including political one, dominated by religious rather than secular principles.” Often fundamentalism has also meant a tendency to impose these principles indiscriminately on believers and non-believers alike.”The European Commission’s social cohesion research report further demonstrates that religious fundamentalism will not be tolerated within the European neighborhood. "This third school of thought is referred to as 'civil society as the public sphere'. "Theories of the public sphere demand a return to the practice of politics. Not as an elite occupation in which the public takes part once every four or five years through elections, but as an ongoing process through which 'active citizens' can help to shape both the ends and means of the good society…Essential to the functioning of democracy, according to the line of thinking of this school, is that all sets of voices are heard. Inequality and discrimination are therefore seen as the enemies of the public sphere. Fundamentalism is seen as its most dangerous enemy, since fundamentalism does not acknowledge the existence of different truths nor does it respect other values, which makes it impossible to reach a consensus with other groups... The only similarity between European policy and this third school of thought is its aversion to fundamentalism."As part of the 2007-2013 Cohesion Policy, member states are bound by agreement to implement European Security and Defense Policy (ESDP) guidelines. As mentioned earlier, the European Defense Strategy’s focus is primarily on combating strategic terrorism. To do so, Solana has created a military-industrial complex having the following characteristics (to name only a few):

Israel fears clash with U.S. over peace talks' impasse
Haaretz (December 25, 2007) -
The United States will conduct confidential assessments of whether
Israel and the Palestinians are meeting their peacemaking commitments
and share the results privately with the parties, U.S. and Western
officials said. Israel has sought to keep the U.S. process of judging
compliance with the long-stalled "road map" peace plan largely secret.
Palestinians say they favour disclosure of judgments on whether Israel
is halting all settlement activity and whether the Palestinians are
curbing militants as the plan demands. Though the Bush administration
has decided to keep the assessment process confidential, it reserves the
right to go public with its views if necessary, the officials said.
U.S. judgments will be crucial because Israel has said it
will not implement any peace deal until the Palestinians meet their
commitments to combat militants in both the West Bank and the
Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, where militants continue to fire rockets
across the border into Israel. The monitoring process may be a test of
Washington's readiness to hold a key ally to its commitments. Despite
U.S. and Palestinian pressure on Israel to freeze settlements, the
Housing Ministry said on Sunday 740 new homes would be built in East
Jerusalem next year. Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian
President Mahmoud Abbas agreed at U.S.-sponsored conference in
Annapolis, Maryland last month to relaunch final-status peace talks with
the goal of reaching a statehood agreement by the end of 2008.

EU is increasingly perceived worldwide as a global player Bertlesmann-Stiftung (December 25, 2007) -
International opinion survey: US experiences dramatic
loss of stature - Rapidly growing awareness of environmental threats -
EU recognized as world power. The European Union is increasingly
perceived all over the world as a global power, and is anticipated to
play a major role on the international stage in 2020 after the US, China
and Russia. The US's superpower image is fading, while China and Russia
have risen enormously in stature. There was a spike in many parts of the
world in people's awareness of the dangers of climate change and
environmental devastation. Climate protection and poverty are currently
seen as the most important tasks facing international policy makers.
These are some of the findings of a worldwide opinion poll conducted by
the German foundation, the Bertelsmann Stiftung. According to the
poll, the European Union already enjoys the reputation of a global
player, and was ranked fifth on average by all international
respondents. This picture improves for the Europeans as time goes on.
When asked which nations and organizations would be global powers in
2020, every third person mentioned the EU. On the other hand, the US
lost its undisputed leadership position. While 81 percent of people
would still call the US a world power today, only 61 percent expect it
to retain this position into 2020. Once again, China, India and - more
recently - Russia have greatly boosted their own profiles as global
players. With a 57 percent response rate, China was mentioned almost as
frequently as the US as a future superpower. They were followed further
down by Russia with 37 percent, the EU with 33 percent, Japan with 33
percent and India with 29 percent. Compared to the United Nations,
the EU is perceived as a very strong player in global politics. This
applies in all countries surveyed except India, where the UN has a
higher standing. And in China, the perception of the EU as a world power
rose significantly - by 15 percentage points in the past two years. When
asked if their own country should cooperate more closely with the EU,
the vast majority of the international respondents - 74 percent on
average - said yes. This desire is particularly strong in China and
Russia, where stronger ties with the EU are favoured by 98 percent and
91 percent of respondents, respectively. In the US, these numbers were
78 percent, in Brazil 70 percent, in India 68 percent and in Japan 48
percent. Recent years have seen a shift in perceptions of what
challenges face the world and what goals global players should work
towards. For example, in almost all the countries surveyed, awareness
of environmental threats skyrocketed, while dangers such as global
terrorism were viewed as less urgent. Awareness of environmental
problems has risen more than 10 percentage points worldwide since 2005.
The percentage of people who viewed climate change and environmental
devastation as global threats rose in all countries surveyed, but
especially in the US (+22 percentage points), China (+17 percentage
points) and Japan (+16 percentage points). On average, 54 percent of all
people viewed environmental destruction as the most important threat.
Only in Russia (31 percent) and India (28 percent) did a minority of the
population view this problem as a major threat. At the same time, the
perceived significance of global terrorism showed no change compared to
two years ago. The other key challenges cited by respondents were
poverty and overpopulation, war, resource scarcity, and religious
conflicts and fundamentalism. more...
RFID poised for the big time in 2008
Vnunet (December 24, 2007)
- Next year will witness the spread of RFID applications into familiar,
everyday settings, while consumer electronics, wireless technologies and
security requirements will continue to benefit from the integration of
RFID. These are just some of the predictions from AIM Global, the
worldwide industry trade association and self-proclaimed authority on
automatic identification and mobility solutions. Practical RFID
applications will find their way into familiar settings, including
sporting events, the latest toys and food safety, according to the trade
association. Next year's Beijing Olympics will see RFID applications
being used to track marathon runners to ensure race time accuracy,
watched by sports fans holding tickets authenticated by the same
technology. This year's highly publicised recalls of contaminated foods
and unsafe toys will push firms to use RFID to immediately track the
origins of compromised items, halting the production of potentially
harmful goods. 2008 will also witness the increasing integration of RFID
into mobile devices and consumer electronics, providing consumers and
business users with new and more convenient services. This technological
marriage will result in multi-functional mobile devices that allow users
to manage voice calls, email, text messages, multimedia, location-based
information, personal finance accounts and many other aspects of
everyday lives. According to AIM Global, the convergence of RFID and
other wireless technologies is now inevitable. As such the coming
together of RFID, real-time locating systems technology, GPS, sensor and
other wireless technologies will spur a "disappearance" of these
acronyms as businesses and individuals become more accustomed to the
benefits. 2008 will also see RFID addressing security vulnerabilities in
the global supply chain. From transportation worker ID cards and border
cards, to RFID-based electronic seals on cargo containers, RFID will
increasingly be deployed in a bid to improve security without hampering
international trade. more...
FBI prepares to build the world's largest database of peoples' physical
characteristics
The Washington Post (December 22, 2007)
- The FBI is embarking on a $1 billion effort to build the world's
largest computer database of peoples' physical characteristics, a
project that would give the government unprecedented abilities to
identify individuals in the United States and abroad. Digital images of
faces, fingerprints and palm patterns are already flowing into FBI
systems in a climate-controlled, secure basement here. Next month, the
FBI intends to award a 10-year contract that would significantly expand
the amount and kinds of biometric information it receives. And in the
coming years, law enforcement authorities around the world will be able
to rely on iris patterns, face-shape data, scars and perhaps even the
unique ways people walk and talk, to solve crimes and identify criminals
and terrorists. The FBI will also retain, upon request by employers, the
fingerprints of employees who have undergone criminal background checks
so the employers can be notified if employees have brushes with the law.
"Bigger. Faster. Better. That's the bottom line," said Thomas E. Bush
III, assistant director of the FBI's Criminal Justice Information
Services Division, which operates the database from its headquarters in
the Appalachian foothills. The increasing use of biometrics for
identification is raising questions about the ability of Americans to
avoid unwanted scrutiny. It is drawing criticism from those who worry
that people's bodies will become de facto national identification cards.
Critics say that such government initiatives should not proceed without
proof that the technology really can pick a criminal out of a crowd. The
use of biometric data is increasing throughout the government. For the
past two years, the Defense Department has been storing in a database
images of fingerprints, irises and faces of more than 1.5 million Iraqi
and Afghan detainees, Iraqi citizens and foreigners who need access to
U.S. military bases. The Pentagon also collects DNA samples from some
Iraqi detainees, which are stored separately. The Department of Homeland
Security has been using iris scans at some airports to verify the
identity of travelers who have passed background checks and who want to
move through lines quickly. The department is also looking to apply
iris- and face-recognition techniques to other programs. The DHS already
has a database of millions of sets of fingerprints, which includes
records collected from U.S. and foreign travelers stopped at borders for
criminal violations, from U.S. citizens adopting children overseas, and
from visa applicants abroad. There could be multiple records of one
person's prints. "It's going to be an essential component of tracking,"
said Barry Steinhardt, director of the Technology and Liberty Project of
the American Civil Liberties Union. "It's enabling the Always On
Surveillance Society." If successful, the system planned by the FBI,
called Next Generation Identification, will collect a wide variety of
biometric information in one place for identification and forensic
purposes. In an underground facility the size of two football fields, a
request reaches an FBI server every second from somewhere in the United
States or Canada, comparing a set of digital fingerprints against the
FBI's database of 55 million sets of electronic fingerprints. A possible
match is made -- or ruled out--as many as 100,000 times a day.

Fed: Another $20B auctioned to banks Associated
Press (December 21, 2007) - The
Federal Reserve, working to combat the effects of a severe credit
crunch, announced Friday it had auctioned another $20 billion in funds
to commercial banks at an interest rate of 4.67 percent. Fed officials
pledged to continue with the auctions "for as long as necessary." The
central bank said it had received bids for $57.7 billion worth of loans,
nearly three times the amount being offered, indicating continued strong
interest in the Fed's new approach to providing money to cash-strapped
banks. It was the second of four scheduled auctions. The first auction,
on Monday, of $20 billion resulted in loans being awarded at an interest
rate of 4.65 percent. There were 93 bidders seeking $63.6 billion at the
first auction and 73 at the second. Two more auctions will occur in
early January. In a statement Friday, the central bank said it would
continue with further auctions "for as long as necessary to address
elevated pressures in short-term funding markets." The new auction
process was announced by the Fed last week in a coordinated action with
central banks around the world trying to address a global credit crunch.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and his colleagues decided to try
the new process because their efforts to inject funds into the banking
system through the Fed's discount window, which makes direct loans to
banks, had proven less successful than Fed officials had hoped. Many
banks had avoided using the Fed's discount window out of concern that
investors would see the move as an indication of underlying problems at
their financial institutions. The auction process was developed as a
second way to get money into the banking system with the hopes that it
would not carry the stigma of the discount window. The Fed said Friday
that it would announce on Jan. 4 the sizes of the next two auctions
which will be held Jan. 14 and Jan. 28. Officials have said the Fed will
evaluate the interest in the auctions after the initial four and
determine whether more auctions will be scheduled. The new auction
results cover short-term loans for 35 days. more...
NATO
Secretary General, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer NATO
highlights by 51 Reasons (December 20,
2007) - On the eve of the festive season I would like to share
with you my thoughts on the months ahead. But first I want to address
the people we owe most in this organisation – the men and women in
uniform. Over 60000 of you currently serve with distinction in NATO-led
operations in different parts of the world. Your dedication, courage,
professionalism and hard work are a credit to you and to NATO. The risks
you take in fulfilling dangerous missions – in Afghanistan, in Kosovo,
in the Mediterranean, as well as providing training in Iraq and helping
logistically the African Union with its mission in Darfur – say so much
about your commitment to security and stability goals. This commitment
is greatly appreciated and embodies the highest standard of excellence
associated with the Alliance. At this time of the year our thoughts are
in particular with the families of those who have paid the highest price
in these operations: your sacrifices will not be forgotten and have not
been made in vain. Next year promises to be just as active as the
passing one. The whole NATO community – civilians and military alike –
will be burning midnight oil to prepare for the key event at the
beginning of April: the Bucharest Summit of NATO. Important decisions
await the leaders of 26 Allied countries. They will deliberate on the
further enlargement of NATO, on strategic guidance shaping the nature of
our continued engagement in Afghanistan and Kosovo, as well as on all
the crucial projects essential for tackling major security challenges
confronting us. This list includes such diverse topics as fight against
terrorism, missile defence, new capabilities, energy security or cyber
defence. I am also convinced that coming months will broaden and
intensify NATO’s dialogue and cooperation with our partners. We will
strive to improve further a team-work approach with the United Nations
and with the European Union. And we will also work more in the framework
of the Partnership for Peace, Mediterranean Dialogue and Istanbul
Cooperative Initiative. We will spare no efforts to resolve existing
differences with the Russian Federation, to support reform efforts in
Ukraine. This is a long list of goals. But NATO is a busy Alliance.
Projecting stability where it is needed. Building global partnerships,
where they make sense. And standing as a unique forum for
transatlantic consultation on security issues. All, as
ever, to preserve the security of the citizens of NATO countries and the
broader international community. NATO will continue to make its
contribution to international security in 2008. I wish you and your
loved ones a safe and happy year. And once again, I send my best wishes,
and warm thanks, to the NATO and Partner soldiers far away from home
during this festive season. If you haven't read through it yet, please check out the Treaty of Lisbon and how the Alliance of Civilizations, combating those who claim sole ownership to the Truth, is being set up to be enforced through Europe and NATO to combat terrorism with military and civilian forces. The question is when will the war on the saints, who hold to the Truth of the Bible that lays claim to sole ownership of the Truth, will begin. According to Bible prophecy that time is coming and according to the HIStory, Our Future Bible studies, that time is just around the corner. 2008 will be a determining year and if this is accurate, a very chaotic year full of prophecy fulfilled.

LEAP/E2020 Alert: Breaking phase ahead for the global financial system in 2008 Europe 2020 (December 15, 2007) - The rapid aggravation of the global systemic crisis as its phase of impact unfolds [1] has brought our researchers to estimate that the contemporary global financial system will reach a breaking phase in the course of 2008. Crisis follow-up indicators now show that we should no longer only fear the failure of some large financial institution (and of many small ones) in the US first and the in the rest of the world (cf. GEAB N°19), but that the global financial system itself is structurally hit. The network of global central banks’ repeated incapacity to control the « credit crunch » when the two historical pillars of the contemporary global financial system (a US economy in recession and a US dollar in decay), reflects the growing surge of centrifugal forces within this very system. Indeed it is no more a matter of competence or of magnitude of the corrective actions implemented by central bankers. These times are over since summer 2007 and, according to LEAP/E2020, we are now witnessing an increasing divergence in economic interests among the different components of the global financial system. The expected failure of the Fed’s most recent attempt to coordinate a joint action of the main central banks in order to feed the banks in US dollars [2] , is particularly revealing. This action meant to restore confidence in the financial system by two means:

Mitt Romney to buy clear channel Media
Monarchy (December 13, 2007) -
from
lew rockwell: What would it
cost to buy the support of just about every nationally-syndicated neocon
talk show host in America? About $19.5 Billion, which is what Mitt
Romney's private equity firm,
Bain Capital, and Thomas H. Lee
Partners have
agreed to pay in a leveraged buyout agreement
with
Clear Channel Communications, the
largest radio station owner in the country. Clear Channel owns over
1,100 full-power AM, FM, and shortwave radio stations, twelve radio
channels on XM Satellite Radio, and more than 30 television stations in
the United States.
Premiere Radio Networks, which is the
largest syndication company in the United States, is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Clear Channel and is home to Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck,
and many others. Sean Hannity recently signed a large multi-market
contract with Clear Channel, as well. From an anonymous email: "I'll bet
those hosts won't reveal that conflict of interest, but it's worth
noting when you hear them begin hyping Romney, which has already begun.
A lot of GOP supporters will support whomever they are told to support,
so be prepared for a big push for Romney. On the bright side, Romney has
more vulnerabilities than Rudy, based on his record. Look at this as the
GOP establishment doing us a favor. Rich men can bankroll their own
campaigns (a la John Kerry), but it takes a special breed to use
investors' money to buy entire networks that can operate as passive
wings of a presidential campaign." I'm sure you're aware that Mitt is a Mormon. What does that have to do with anything? Read The Mormon Church and Freemasonry from a pro-freemasonry perspective giving the history of Joseph Smith and Freemasonry. Also examine Masonic symbols and the LDS Temple where the compass and square as well as upside-down pentagrams and all-seeing eyes are incorporated into the architecture. If you've studied Freemasonry at all, you will see its influence on American politics from the beginning working toward the same New World Order that many other secret societies are working for. There is a consolidation of power as we approach the end-times and understanding the importance of media and Mitt's ties to Mormonism and push for global governance, I'm very wary of this play. Those who own media can control public perception.
NATO Backs Turkey's Alliance of Civilizations Initiative Todays
Zaman (December 20, 2007) -
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has announced that it
supports the Alliance of Civilizations initiative, co-chaired by Turkey
and Spain. The NATO summit started on Tuesday with the
participation of 26 heads of state and government in Riga, Latvia. In a
joint declaration, NATO leaders expressed their support for the Alliance
of Civilizations initiative. "We support
the collective value and dialogue between cultures and people. Therefore
the Alliance of Civilizations initiative under the aegis of United
Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan is of great importance to us,"
was the announcement made at the end of the summit. Meanwhile, NATO
leaders also invited Serbia, Montenegro and Bosnia-Herzegovina on
Wednesday to begin negotiations for eventual membership in the
military alliance, but urged Serbia and Bosnia to fully
cooperate with the UN war crimes tribunal. NATO leaders resumed their
summit Wednesday with a pledge to stay the course in Afghanistan despite
mounting casualties and the continual refusal of some governments to
send their troops into combat in the most dangerous regions of the
country. "We will stand with the
Afghan people for the long term," NATO Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop
Scheffer told reporters at the press conference held after the
gathering. Well it appears that NATO likes the goal of the Alliance of Civilizations. This means that all member nations of NATO will go along with European military forces to enforce wherever this ends up going. I don't think it looks good for those who refuse to go along with the global governance plans. Michael Collins: Thought Control on the Internet Scoop Independent News (December 19, 2007) - Cracking the Code – Who's to Blame for "Violent Radicalization"? The Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007 passed the U.S. House of Representatives by a 404 to 6 vote on Oct. 23. Not since the Iraq War Resolution have Democrats and Republicans found such a unifying cause. We're told that House Resolution 1955 (H.R. 1955) will be an essential tool enabling law enforcement to peg the sources of "homegrown terrorism" on the Internet. The overwhelming bipartisan support makes it no surprise that the legislation presents a significant danger to citizens and the nation. This sentence is the new heart of darkness for free speech. (2) VIOLENT RADICALIZATION - The term `violent radicalization' means the process of adopting or promoting an extremist belief system for the purpose of facilitating ideologically based violence to advance political, religious, or social change. (Author's emphasis) (House Resolution 1955) That one word, "facilitating," takes the bill beyond aiding the hunt for terrorists on the Internet. It creates an emerging standard for wrongdoing that can be applied to everyone who exercises net-based free speech. Senate 1959, the equivalent of H.R. 1955, is up for consideration now. Here are some scenarios under the bill that could easily be called "thought crimes", i.e., "facilitating violent radicalization." You post one of these statements on the Internet …
… and a terrorist reads it. That terrorist subsequently commits a violent act. You don't know the person. You're not affiliated with him or her in any way. You don't advocate violence in your post nor do you approve of violence to achieve political goals. None of that matters. You can be accused of facilitating "violent radicalization," which this bill specifically implies can be an outcome of flagrant opposition to the administration, even though you really just oppose the current or any future office holders. You're busted! The scenario just mentioned is an outcome of H.R. 1955 and the yet-to-be-passed equivalent Senate Resolution 1959...
What disturbs me most about this
legislation is that it leaves the door wide open for the
broadest definition of what constitutes
"radicalization." Could otherwise nonviolent anti-tax,
anti-war, or anti-abortion groups fall under the
watchful eye of this new government commission?
Assurances otherwise in this legislation are
unconvincing.

Collapse of the Modern Day Banking System - Staring into the Abyss The
Market Oracle (December 19, 2007) -
“In past financial crises... the Fed has been able to wave
its magic wand and make market turmoil disappear. But this time the
magic isn't working. Why not? Because the problem with the markets isn't
just a lack of liquidity — there's also a fundamental problem of
solvency.” Paul Krugman Stocks fell sharply last week on
news of accelerating inflation which will limit the Federal Reserves
ability to continue cutting interest rates. On Tuesday the Dow Jones
Industrials tumbled 294 points following the Fed's announcement of a
quarter point cut to the Fed Funds rate. On Friday, the Dow dipped
another 178 points when government figures showed consumer prices had
risen 0.8% last month after a 0.3% gain in October. The stock market is
now lurching downward into a “primary bear market”. There has been a
steady deterioration in retail sales, commercial real estate, and the
transports. The financial industry is going through a major retrenchment
losing more than 25% in aggregate capitalization since July. The real
estate market is collapsing. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger
announced on Friday that he will declare a "fiscal emergency" in January
and ask for more power to deal with the $14 billion budget shortfall
from the meltdown in subprime lending. Economists are beginning to
publicly acknowledge what many market analysts have suspected for
months; the nation's economy is going into a tailspin which will
inevitably end in a hard landing. Morgan Stanley's Asia Chairman,
Stephen Roach, made this observation in a New York Times op-ed on
Sunday: “This recession will be deeper than the shallow contraction
earlier in this decade. The dot-com-led downturn was set off by a
collapse in business capital spending, which at its peak in 2000
accounted for only 13 percent of the country's gross domestic product.
The current recession is all about the coming capitulation of the
American consumer — whose spending now accounts for a record 72 percent
of G.D.P.” Most people have no idea how grave the present situation is
or the disaster the country will face if trillions of dollars of
over-leveraged bonds and equities begin to unwind. There's a widespread
belief that the stewards of the system—Bernanke and Paulson—can somehow
steer the economy through this “rough patch” into calm waters. But they
cannot, and the presumption shows a basic misunderstanding of how
markets work. The Fed has no magical powers and will it allow itself to
be crushed by standing in the path of a market-avalanche. As
foreclosures and bankruptcies increase; stocks will crash and the fed
will step aside to safety. That much is certain.
more... My guess of what this will lead to is a transition to a global electronic financial system rising from the ashes of the collapsing one. There would be a single currency not printed on paper, but tattooed through RFID ink under the skin so that one cannot buy or sell without this mark. The fear of terrorism and the demand for peace and safety from it and the guidance of powerful people trying to guide society will eventually lead us there. A collapsing world financial situation would help that along and those who still have the money and run the financial systems already have much of the infrastructure in place today. Time will tell, keep watching! EU leaders sign landmark treaty BBC News (December 13, 2007) - EU leaders have signed a treaty in the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, that is expected to greatly alter the way the 27-nation body operates. The treaty creates an EU president and a more powerful foreign policy chief. The document, signed at a ceremony at the city's historic Jeronimos Monastery, also scraps veto powers in many policy areas. It is a replacement for the EU constitution, which was abandoned following French and Dutch opposition. EU leaders insist that the two texts are in no way equivalent. But the Lisbon treaty incorporates some of the draft constitution's key reforms, and several governments face domestic pressure over the document. In a speech before the signing, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso called on European leaders to use the treaty to make freedom, prosperity and solidarity an everyday reality for all European citizens. "From this old continent, a new Europe is born," he said. Portuguese Prime Minister Jose Socrates, whose country holds the rotating EU presidency, said the treaty would create a more modern, efficient and democratic union. "The world needs a stronger Europe," he said. The leaders signed the treaty, translated into the EU's 23 official languages, using specially engraved silver fountain pens as a choir sang Beethoven's Ode to Joy. UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown signed the treaty later in the day after missing the ceremony, citing a prior engagement in the British parliament. Foreign Secretary David Miliband attended the signing ceremony. The UK's opposition Conservatives accused Mr Brown of "not having the guts" to sign the treaty, which is politically controversial in Britain, in public. Having started this year with a celebration of its 50th birthday, the EU hopes the signing of the Lisbon treaty will end the serious mid-life crisis brought about by the death of the constitution, the BBC's Oana Lungescu reports. There will be a lot of relief, said a senior European diplomat, but also some apprehension about what happens next. Ireland is the only country planning to hold a referendum, but most voters there seem either undecided or indifferent. Parliaments in Britain, the Netherlands and Denmark are also expected to give a turbulent reception to the 250-page text. However, Germany, France and Poland have pledged to be among the first to ratify it, so that the new reforms can come into force in 2009 as planned. The treaty is a slimmed-down version of the European constitution, with a more modest name and without any reference to EU symbols such as the flag and anthem. It is meant to ease decision-making, by scrapping national vetoes in some 50 policy areas, including sensitive ones such as police and judicial co-operation. There will also be a foreign policy chief, controlling a big budget and thousands of diplomats and officials, and a permanent EU president appointed for up to five years. But some already fear that instead of giving Europe a strong single voice in the world, the new posts will only generate more rivalry, our correspondent adds.| EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | According to Bible prophecy, this consolidation of power will continue despite opposition to it and eventually all will wonder at the beast and worship him when he declares himself god.

Revelation 13:4-8 Russia, France, Germany, Algeria and US Training Fatah Commandos Israel National News (December 13, 2007) - PA Arabs belonging to the Fatah terrorist group loyal to PA President Mahmoud Abbas are being trained in Russia, France, Germany and Algeria for “counter-terror” operations against Hamas. According to the New York Daily News, the PA forces are receiving covert training at a secret Russian base in Moscow in an effort to stave off a Hamas takeover of Judea and Samaria. The Fatah men are being trained by Russian commandos who fought Islamist terrorists in Chechnya. The PA force is named “al-Himaya Wal-Isnad" (defense and reinforcement) according to the report and includes 25 PA intelligence officers. The course will last for a month and will involve extensive weapons and combat training. According to the Daily News report, similar training courses are being provided in France, Germany and Algeria – with plans to send PA units to other countries for training as well. "They are getting good training over there," PA official Dr. Ibrahim Khraishi told the Daily News. Meanwhile, in Judea and Samaria, PA forces continue to receive equipment and training from the US, with General Keith Dayton continuing to oversee the program even after the American-supplied arms and equipment supplied to Fatah in Gaza was inherited by Hamas with little resistance shown by Fatah forces. Dayton even testified to Congress just a few weeks before the fall of Fatah in Gaza, saying that the PA forces his men trained had progressed significantly. Abu Yousuf, a Fatah terrorist from Abba's own Force 17 security forces, told WorldNetDaily earlier this year that while some of the weapons may be used in confrontations against Hamas, the bulk of the American arms and training would be utilized to "hit the Zionists." He also said if there is a major conflict with Israel, U.S. weapons provided to Fatah may be shared with other "Palestinian resistance organizations."| Islam | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | What side are we on? The bottom line is that Islam has a common enemy, everyone that isn't Muslim - and especially hatred for Israel.

Are our leaders really that ignorant? What is the goal of Islam? Free-trade fears dog both parties in U.S. campaign Reuters (December 13, 2007) - Democratic candidates running for president can expect to get a question about the perils of free trade at nearly every campaign stop. But Republicans aren't escaping fears about globalization, either. "Everything you pick up is made in China," a voter told Republican Mitt Romney at a recent event here in Iowa's capital. "We used to make cars, we used to make TVs." How, the questioner wanted to know, can America find a "secure place" in that kind of global marketplace? Romney, a front-runner in the early presidential nominating state of Iowa, spent a minute telling the man what he wanted to hear before explaining why it couldn't be done. It's tempting to "build a wall around this country and keep those foreign goods from coming in," the former Massachusetts governor said. "That sounds good for a while but think about what happens down the road." Explaining the benefits of free trade has become a tough task for candidates ahead of the November 2008 presidential election, as rising fears about unsafe imports and a backlash against illegal immigrants make any mention of foreign goods or labor a flash point for voter anger. Echoing the stand of most of his Republican colleagues, Romney told the concerned voter that fair trade conditions must be in place, before going on to chastise China for manipulating its currency to give itself a trade advantage. Whether the question to candidates is about foreign-made goods, job losses overseas or illegal immigrants taking American jobs, prevailing sentiment against globalization has become a feature of the U.S. campaign trail. While the Republican Party used to be a bastion of free-market believers -- and Democrats embraced free trade under former President Bill Clinton -- an October poll by the Wall Street Journal found even 59 percent of Republicans now believe foreign trade has been bad for the United States. more...| NewWorldOrder | America | Central Banks Pumping Billions into World Financial System International Herald Tribune (December 12, 2007) - Central banks in Europe and North America moved Wednesday to increase the amount of money they could lend to banks and to make it more readily available in an attempt to ease the credit squeeze. It was the first time since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in New York and on the Pentagon that these central banks have coordinated their support of financial markets. Stock markets rose in Europe and the Americas after the announcement by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the Bank of Canada, the European Central Bank, the Bank of England and the Swiss National Bank. In the United States, the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index made up nearly half of its losses from Tuesday, when stocks fell after the Fed cut interest rates modestly, but then dipped, closing up 8.94 points at 1,486.59. The Dow Jones Stoxx 600, a broad measure of European markets, rose 1.20 points to close at 374.75. Fed officials said the united move was an effort to improve financial markets, not a response to problems at any individual bank. "This is not about particular financial institutions with particular problems," a senior Fed official said in a background briefing for reporters. "It is about market functioning." Economists and market specialists welcomed the Fed's intervention but expressed some skepticism whether it would be enough to allay the biggest problems in the credit markets related to the sharp drop in the value of U.S. mortgage securities. "We have a Fed now that seems to understand the liquidity problem of the marketplace," said William Gross, the chief investment officer of Pacific Investment Management, the bond management firm. "These measures, while limited in size and with limitations in acceptance of collateral, should certainly instill a measure of confidence to the private market." Gross added, "Now it's up to the private market to gain a little confidence and turn a little macho and start performing on its own." more...| NewWorldOrder | America | U.S. says homegrown attack poses biggest risk Reuters (December 12, 2007) - The United States faces a heightened threat of terrorist attack "for the foreseeable future" but any attack will likely be homegrown, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said on Wednesday. Chertoff, who said over the summer that he had a "gut feeling" that the country faced a heightened risk of attack, said that assessment still stands. "It's not something that's going to evaporate in a week or two. I think it's something that's going to be with us for a while," he told a small group of reporters in a phone call. Chertoff, who is in charge of ensuring that the country does not face another attack like that of September 11, 2001, said the heightened risk was not based on any intelligence predicting a specific, imminent attack. "I said we were beginning to enter into a period like this. And that didn't mean it was going to be a week, it meant it's for the foreseeable future," he said. "There's probably a greater risk in terms of likelihood from a homegrown attack than from a massive international attack," he added. Chertoff described that sort of "homegrown" attack as a single person or small group of people living in the United States who were "recruited" on the Internet and had pledged allegiance to al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. "I think the consequence of that kind of attack is likely to be less cataclysmic than the kind of attack that would be launched from outside like the London plot of 2006 against the airlines," he said, referring to a thwarted plot to bomb transatlantic airliners using liquid explosives.| NewWorldOrder | America | ‘America has abandoned us’ Jerusalem Watchman (December 9, 2007) - The newspapers here in Israel made for sobering reading this weekend. In the words of a visiting compatriot in the cause of Christian Zionism, it is as if, after years of moving towards a cliff in Israel-US relations, we have suddenly arrived, and tipped over the edge. The United States has betrayed the trust of its once “faithful friend” in the Middle East, and things are spiraling at an alarming speed - seemingly out of control. Israelis today believe that Washington successfully worked to lure them to Annapolis by promising to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Jewish state against Iran’s fevered efforts to obtain, deploy and possibly use nuclear weapons. Largely as a result of this “guaranteed” alliance, the Olmert government went to Annapolis despite the refusal of the Palestinian Arabs to, among other things, recognize Israel as a Jewish state. Once there, believing that America truly has Israel’s best interests at heart, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert agreed to work towards the creation of a Palestinian state by the end of the Bush presidency, and gave the US the right to judge whether or not Jerusalem is complying with its commitments under the Road Map. And then, with this Israeli commitment in its pocket, and before the news crews had barely departed the US Naval Academy, Washington suddenly lifted its threat to use force against Iran, issuing a report whose heading announced that the genocidal mullahs had in fact halted their nuclear weapons program in 2003 and therefore no longer posed a serious threat to Israel or anyone else within reach of their long range, surface-to-surface missiles. The fact that the body of the National Intelligence Estimate report soundly contradicts its headline has done little if anything to alleviate the fallout from its release. For Israelis, the announcement means that America has left it dangling before the diabolical designs of the Islamic world - and particularly of holocaust-threatening Tehran. This was the consensus of understanding, at least on the staff of The Jerusalem Post, Israel’s biggest-circulation English-language daily, who expressed their sense of shock and disbelief: We have been “bushwacked” exclaimed disbelieving editor-in-chief David Horowitz. America has “dropped a bomb on Israel” said reporter Ya’akov Katz. An American guest columnist, Jonathan Tobin, said the “intelligence bombshell [had left] Bush’s approach to Middle East peacemaking in ruins and Jerusalem isolated.” And Post deputy managing editor and columnist Caroline Glick wrote a requiem for Israel-US relations in her “Column One” piece hauntingly headlined: “The abandonment of the Jews.” Elsewhere, in a Ynetnews report Sunday Shas Party Minister Yitzhak Cohen slammed “the manner in which the Americans relate to the intelligence report on Iran [as] similar to the way in which they viewed those reports they received during the Holocaust on railways transporting hundreds of thousands of Jews to their death at Auschwitz. more...| Israel | Islam | Dividing the Land | NewWorldOrder | America | Pray for Israel.

Dictator at the Door A Time, Times, and Half a Time (December 8, 2007) - During Kofi Annan's presentation to the General Assembly of the United Nation's Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, he applauded the Club of Madrid for its related efforts in countering terrorism. In 2005, the Club of Madrid conducted a democracy, terrorism and security conference which is said to have been the largest gathering of security and terrorism experts that has ever taken place. Annan delivered the keynote address to the closing plenary where he conveyed that he would form an implementation task force dedicated to fighting terrorism and that all the UN system would play a role. We know that the role of setting the "global conscience" is being fulfilled by the Alliance of Civilizations High Level Group. One need not look too far on the list of conference participants to find individuals connected to the Alliance of Civilizations. Noteworthy participants include John Esposito, Giandomenico Picco, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, Javier Solana, etc. Here, I provide a summation of the conference outcome documents. In Addressing the Causes of Terrorism, identification of the problematic individuals are found on pages 27-33. The core of the experts’ argument is that religion can contribute to a ‘culture of violence’, a condition which must be addressed to stop the spread of terrorism. “…religion is often ‘centered around themes that can be inherently polarizing—concepts of truth, notions of good, of absolutes and ultimate realities’. For this reason, religion can contribute to a culture of violence where violence becomes ‘a defining issue’ in the identity of activist groups.”In Part I of this series, we see that Alliance of Civilisation’s High Level Group member John Esposito equates monotheistic religions’ exclusive truth claims with terrorism. In light of Esposito’s contribution to this counter-terrorism strategy, it’s no surprise that the question “Is violence more frequently linked with monotheistic traditions?” resulted in the following answer: “Samuel Peleg pointed out that the monotheistic religions (Christianity, Judaism and Islam) have a tendency to authoritarianism and intolerance due to ‘their centrist emphasis on a single deity’. Esposito said that the ‘three Abrahamic traditions’ have been ‘more prone to exclusivist theologies/worldviews which can be used by political and religious leaders to legitimate imperialist expansion, violence, and terror’. Elorza gave explanations of why – in his view – Islam and Judaism had a propensity towards violence and Buddhism did not. Other members of the group stressed that some strands of Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism have also been capable of hideous acts of terror, and that these acts have been justified by violent images and themes within these Eastern traditions. Moreover, the distinction between ‘monotheism’ and ‘polytheism’ is much debated by scholars of comparative religion who point out that a supposedly polytheistic religion such as Hinduism has a strong sense of unity behind its diversity, and that notions such as the Christian Trinity and concepts of sainthood introduce a complexity into the idea of God in the supposed monotheisms of Western religions.” Maybe the monotheistic faiths are too complex for these individuals. So they concluded: therefore, responding to terrorism: “Multi-track approaches (involving political, social and economic in parallel with security and military measures) should be employed.” The Confronting Terrorism working papers lay out these multi track approaches. I subtitled my copy “Directives for a Police State”. There is a common thread running through the three main counter-terrorism strategies which I focus on —one which migrates the military from battlefield situations and embeds it into the populations. This is referred to as peace-keeping. (I will address this further in my next blog article.) This approach is intended for global implementation. Among the Club of Madrid's plans of action are:
Travel documents for a world without borders? Hmmm. But, of course, all of this is intended to be conducted within the framework of and with sensitivity to democracy—that is “safe democracy”. The Alliance of Civilizations Giandomenico Picco has provided us with direction on what form of democracy we may expect under this weltanschauung. I noticed after I published my first article in this series that the Club of Madrid had removed Picco’s article from their website. I have attached it to the top of this piece for educational purposes. It can also be found on safe democracy foundation’s website. Simply click on each document to expand it so it becomes readable. According to Picco:
Well this is one weltanschauung that amounts to nothing more than old
fashioned fascism--a relic of extremist ideology has been tested before.
Ultimately, it will become known as the most terroristic regime the
world has ever known.
Canada openly proclaims NAFTA Superhighway WorldNet

Ron Paul fires back at Newsweek 'hit' piece
WorldNet Daily (December 6, 2007)

Republican presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul fired
back at Newsweek for an
article
labeling the NAFTA Superhighway a baseless conspiracy theory. "It's
the same old story," Paul said in an exclusive interview with WND. "If
Newsweek can't discredit the message, they have to discredit the
messenger." The Newsweek article, by Gretel C. Kovach, keyed off an
answer the Texas congressman gave during the Nov. 28 CNN presidential
debate. A YouTube.com question asked him about a "conspiracy theory
regarding the Council [on] Foreign Relations and some plan to merge the
United States with Canada and Mexico." Paul told WND the problem
Newsweek and CNN have is that "it's not just me" talking about it. "We
have some 14 states passing resolutions to oppose the North American
Union and NAFTA Superhighways, amendments passed in Congress have taken
away funds for North American integration projects and Virgil Goode has
some 50 sponsors for his bill in the House," Paul explained. "There are
millions of Americans who oppose this globalist agenda."
WND has reported
the House and
Senate are in the final stages of sending to President Bush a Department
of Transportation funding bill with amendments removing the funds needed
to continue the Mexican truck demonstration project. Rep. Goode's office
confirmed to WND that House Concurrent Resolution 40, sponsored by the
Virginia Republican to oppose the North American Union and NAFTA
Superhighways, now has more than 40 co-sponsors in the House of
Representatives. "Millions of Americans know about these issues and are
concerned about them," Paul told WND. "What I was trying to say in the

Operation Grapes of Wrath Michael Vail (December 6, 2007) - "Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can control the world." -Heinz Alfred Kissinger Would you trust your government with the lives of your family? During a national emergency would you wait for help or make efforts to safeguard your family? The government devours roughly 40% from the average American family's budget through taxes and what services do they get in return? The proper role of government according to the constitution is to guard life, liberty and property. It is sad to say but if America was the name of a ship sailing upon choppy waters and our government officials knew we were headed for the ‘perfect storm'[1] they would be guarding the life rafts and jumping ship. I could cite[2] so many different examples[3] showing that the government does not concern itself with the safety of Americans but if you are honest with yourself you know it as well as I do. The stark reality is that the politicians and monopoly men view the common man and woman like cattle. We are branded with names like ‘useful idiots' and ‘useless eaters' and of course they must thin the herd to ensure their own survival. This idea has been passed down from gangrenous minded individuals like Giammaria Ortes[4] and Thomas Malthus and many in this generation who want 80 percent of the world to be culled. In 1961 Frederick S. Jaffe, then vice president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), sent a memorandum to Bernard Barelson, president of the Population Council, in which he proposed various measures to reduce U.S. fertility. Social constraints would include postponing or avoiding marriage, altering the image of the ideal family size, compulsory sex education and family limitation, encouraging increased homosexuality, encouraging women to work and putting fertility control agents in the water supply.[5] John D. Rockefeller and other so-called elites have taken great care to invest part of their fortunes into the eugenics and population control movement. They are responsible for pushing abortion under the name of ‘Planned parenthood'. John D. Rockefeller is also responsible for putting fluoride in the water supply which is causing spontaneous miscarriages. Fluoride has a disastrous effect upon the mind and body. 1953: In a joint speech, U.S. Surgeon-General Scheele and Health, Education & Welfare Undersecretary Nelson Rockefeller announced hopeful plans to put more medicine than just fluoride into the U.S. water supplies: "Dr. Scheele, in discussing mass-application methods for preventing non-infectious diseases, said a case in point was fluoridation of water supplies to reduce tooth decay. Nearly 800 cities throughout the country have adopted the technique during the past 10 years, he said. Such a community-wide attack on "far more serious diseases than dental decay" probably will be forthcoming after laboratory tests have paved the way, he predicted." (Paterson Evening News, 11/6/53) Today some of the richest Americans such as Bill Gates[6] are actively participating in mass genocide[7]. They want to bring the one-child policy from China to America and they don't mind spending millions to get it done. The important question is what happens when the rat poison in our water supply, forced sterilizations and other methods to mass murder the populace isn't decreasing the population as fast as they had hoped? That is the question that keeps me up at night but I think I know the answer. Over the past six months I have seen a most disturbing trend. The American economy is on its last leg as the dollar slides towards oblivion and the prices of food[8] have started to rise sharply. Farmers have been worried about Monsanto[9] and DuPont, as they are trying to corner the seed market. Both companies are producing ‘genetically modified crops' and you will be eating the Frankenfoods[10] regardless of what food you buy unless you buy your own seeds now and produce your own vegetables. Food banks which supplies foods to our nations poor have recently been reporting critical shortages and some even closing down. Many of these food banks also provide food during national emergencies. Now Americans may face stagflation, a situation where prices rise but growth slows. Recently the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research(CGIAR)[11] released a report about the world's food situation while at the same time working in tandem with Bill Gates and the Rockefeller Foundation, Monsanto and DuPont to create a ‘doomsday'[12] seed vault in Norway. This seed vault will contain, "It will contain up to three million different varieties of seeds from the entire world, ‘so that crop diversity can be conserved for the future,' according to the Norwegian government." We can only speculate as to the reasoning for this seed vault but their agricultural Noah's ark will not be for public consumption. Also these GMO frankenfoods may have catastrophic effects on our bodies and the environment. Warn your friend and families about GMO products and let's live off our own land like our forefathers.| NewWorldOrder | America |
National debt grows $1 million a minute Associated Press
(December 3, 2007)
- Like a ticking time bomb, the national debt
is an explosion waiting to happen. It's expanding by about $1.4 billion
a day — or nearly $1 million a minute. What's that mean to you? It means
almost $30,000 in debt for each man, woman, child and infant in the
United States. Even if you've escaped the recent housing and credit
crunches and are coping with rising fuel prices, you may still be headed
for economic misery, along with the rest of the country. That's because
the government is fast straining resources needed to meet interest
payments on the national debt, which stands at a mind-numbing $9.13
trillion. And like homeowners who took out adjustable-rate mortgages,
the government faces the prospect of seeing this debt — now at
relatively low interest rates — rolling over to higher rates,
multiplying the financial pain. So long as somebody is willing to keep
loaning the U.S. government money, the debt is largely out of sight, out
of mind. But the interest payments keep compounding, and could in time
squeeze out most other government spending — leading to sharply higher
taxes or a cut in basic services like Social Security and other
government benefit programs. Or all of the above. A major economic
slowdown, as some economists suggest may be looming, could hasten the
day of reckoning. The national debt — the total accumulation of annual
budget deficits — is up from $5.7 trillion when President Bush took
office in January 2001 and it will top $10 trillion sometime right
before or right after he leaves in January 2009.

EU embassy mergers 'are step closer to a superstate' Daily Mail (December 6, 2007) - Europe yesterday took another big step towards becoming a superstate by proposing joint EU embassies throughout the world. The suggestion comes only days before the signing of the controversial EU treaty, which will create a European diplomatic service and a new post of EU foreign minister. The European Commission unveiled plans yesterday for travellers to be able to use the consular services of any EU country and suggested members could merge their embassies. It also proposed standard rules on the type of help that should be given to European citizens when abroad. EU foreign relations commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner said: 'We need to step up co-operation at EU level and work with member states to protect our citizens.' Under the proposals, travellers who run into problems abroad would be able to use the consular services of any of the EU's 27 members. There would also be standardised rules on the difficult problem of repatriation of corpses from abroad. Any of the EU's 490million citizens are already supposed to be able to use another member state's consulate if their country is not represented abroad. But co-operation between countries' embassies and consulates is patchy. The commission said it wanted to make consulates more aware of their duties regarding EU travellers who lose a passport or get arrested. Last night a commission official who helped draft the proposal said: 'When a family member dies abroad, it is a nightmare. I could imagine a common stance for the repatriation of corpses.' He said consulates could pool resources by, for example, allowing a small EU country to use a consulate belonging to a larger member. The commission said EU citizens make 80million trips a year outside Europe and up to 50million EU citizens live outside Europe. There are only three countries outside the EU where all 27 members are represented - China, Russia and the U.S. The proposals come days before the signing of the European Reform Treaty, formerly the European Constitution, in Lisbon. Shadow Foreign Secretary William Hague said: 'It is a good thing for EU countries to help each others' citizens abroad where they don't have embassies. 'But the EU Commission's proposals go far further than that. This is a clear step towards an EU takeover of British consulates.'| EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Solana | NewWorldOrder | Recommendation 666 Emergency Powers Incorporated Into EU Treaty Fulfilled Prophecy (December 6, 2007) - Here's big news for students of end-times prophecy. The Assembly of the Western European Union has just released a consolidated version of the provisions of the "Lisbon Treaty" (the European Union's new Reform Treaty) that relate to the EU's common foreign and security policy. The document shows how the Lisbon Treaty incorporates the emergency powers from the Western European Union's Assembly Recommendation 666. This means that, in the event of a crisis, the new High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy will have the same extraordinary powers to step in and take control of the EU's military that the old High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy did. This appears to, in effect, enshrine Recommendation 666 into the new treaty. Compare the clause from the Lisbon Treaty with the correlating clause from Recommendation 666. The Lisbon Treaty says (see Article 16, page 10): 2. In cases requiring a rapid decision, the High Representative, of his or her own motion, or at the request of a Member State, shall convene an extraordinary Council meeting within 48 hours or, in an emergency, within a shorter period. The WEU's Assembly Recommendation 666 says (see No. 12):

Although CAIR is a nonprofit organization, it does not disclose complete directories of its staff or advisory boards, and even refuses to make its federal tax filings readily available to the public. But a review of federal criminal court documents, past IRS 990 tax records and Federal Election Commission records detailing donor occupations, reveals that Washington-based CAIR has been associated with a disturbing number of convicted terrorists or felons in terrorism probes, as well as suspected terrorists and active targets of terrorism investigations. "Their offices have been a turnstile for terrorists and their supporters," said one FBI veteran familiar with recent and ongoing cases involving CAIR officials. As previously reported, three CAIR officials have been linked to terrorism. But WND has learned that at least 11 other CAIR officials have been caught up in terror investigations, bringing the total to 14. Congressional leaders say they are warning lawmakers and other Washington officials to disassociate from the group due to its growing terror ties. "Groups like CAIR have a proven record of senior officials being indicted and either imprisoned or deported from the United States," said U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., co-founder of the House Anti-Terrorism/Jihad Caucus. CAIR itself recently was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in an alleged scheme to funnel $12 million to the terrorist group Hamas. In the Holy Land Foundation case, federal prosecutors also listed CAIR as a member of the U.S. branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide jihadist movement that gave rise to Hamas, al-Qaida and other terrorist groups. The government will retry the Holy Land case, which ended in a hung jury. "There was a lot of evidence presented at the recent Holy Land Foundation trial which exposed CAIR and others as front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States," Myrick said. Still, CAIR is lobbying House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers and other sympathetic members of Congress to pressure the Justice Department to expunge its name from the case, arguing the negative publicity has hurt membership and fundraising. The federal judge during the trial refused a written request by the group to strike its name from the list of co-conspirators. The petition is still pending before the court. CAIR denies supporting terrorism and continues to claim to be a "moderate" voice for Muslims in America. The group says its critics are the extremists, including radio personality Michael Savage, whom the group is now attacking with a boycott campaign. So far it has convinced Wal-Mart, OfficeMax, AT&T, JCPenney and other companies to stop advertising on Savage's popular show. In response, Savage last week filed a lawsuit against CAIR, accusing the organization of being a "political vehicle of international terrorism" that seeks to do "material harm to those voices who speak against the violent agenda of CAIR's clients." Ibrahim Hooper, communications director for CAIR, told WND the group would not comment on Savage's action until the document had been reviewed. CAIR, which runs 33 offices and chapters nationwide, also recently helped defeat an anti-terror plan by Los Angeles police to map the local Muslim community for extremist neighborhoods. Now it's pressuring GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney to back down from his position against appointing a Muslim to his Cabinet. Critics counter that CAIR has no legitimate voice to make such complaints, because the group is itself an extremist organization that has employed or appointed to its boards of directors and advisers an inordinate number of radical co-conspirators, suspected and convicted terrorists, and other criminals. Indeed, the list is long and growing, and includes: more...| Islam | NewWorldOrder | America | CAIR – anything but 'American' World Net Daily (December 4, 2007) - I'm proud of my friend and colleague Michael Savage today for standing up against the un-American bullies at the so-called "Council on American-Islamic Relations." I'm here to endorse his lawsuit and offer any help he needs in combating these thugs who seek to narrow the public debate in America, apparently to conform to the wishes and standards of their foreign supporters in some of the most vicious police states in the world. This is an important case. It's about the defense of freedom of speech. It's about the defense of truth. It's about the defense of justice. And it's about fighting for the American way. Please read the suit for yourself – and join me in making a sacrificial monetary contribution to the fight. But I also want to share some information to consider that is not addressed in this lawsuit. CAIR, a powerful and well-funded lobby group, has been targeting Savage's radio advertisers with a campaign of lies and intimidation. Every single advertiser has been pressured, and a few have caved in to the heavy-handed threats. Each of us who cares about preserving Savage's unique voice on the airwaves needs to pull out all the stops in support of the advertisers who remain. I have done this already. I urge you to do the same. Likewise, you need to know who and what this group is really all about. In April 2005, the founder of the Texas chapter of CAIR, Ghassan Elashi was found guilty of supporting terrorism – the third CAIR figure to be convicted on federal terrorism charges since 9/11. Elashi, along with two brothers, was convicted in Dallas of channeling funds to a high-ranking official of the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, Mousa Abu Marzook. CAIR is a spin-off of the Richardson, Texas-based Islamic Association For Palestine, or IAP, which was founded by Marzook. Former FBI counterterrorism chief Oliver Revell has called the IAF "a front organization for Hamas that engages in propaganda for Islamic militants." Marzook, deputy chief of Hamas' political bureau in Syria, founded the IAP in 1991. At its conferences in the United States, the IAP hosted leaders of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. Marzook was deported in 1997. It was not the first conviction for Elashi. As chairman of the Holy Land Foundation charity in Dallas, Elashi was convicted last year of making illegal technology shipments to two countries on the U.S. list of terrorist-sponsoring states, Libya and Syria. Four brothers, including Bayan and Basman, also were convicted. Other CAIR figures convicted since 9/11 are Randall Todd "Ismail" Royer, a former communications specialist and civil-rights coordinator, and Bassem Khafagi, former director of community relations. Royer was sentenced to 20 years in prison on charges he trained in Virginia for holy war against the United States and sent several members to Pakistan to join Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Kashmiri terrorist group with reported ties to al-Qaida. In a plea bargain, Royer claimed he never intended to hurt anyone, but admitted he organized the holy warriors after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. After his arrest, Royer sought legal counsel from Hamas lawyer Stanley Cohen, who said after 9/11 he would consider serving as a defense lawyer for Osama bin Laden if the al-Qaida leader were captured. Khafagi, was arrested in January 2003, while serving with CAIR, and convicted on fraud and terrorism charges. Current CAIR leaders also have made statements in support of Hamas and the domination of the United States by Islam. more...| Islam | NewWorldOrder | America | Rockefeller and the New World Religion Old-Thinker News (December 2, 2007)
The Rockefeller family, while they
are by no means the only major players in world affairs, have
contributed large amounts of resources to the creation of a world
government. Utilizing vast monetary resources which were initially
amassed by the oil empire of John D. Rockefeller Sr., their efforts
have gone into nearly every area of significance. From politics,
media, to education, the Rockefellers are a force to be reckoned
with. [1] One vitally important and often overlooked method of
influence that the Rockefellers have enjoyed is in the realm of the
church and religion. It comes as little surprise, given their long
term goal of world government, that the Rockefeller family would
approve of and support a societal outlook favorable to globalism.
The use of religion is one method that, in Rockefeller's eyes,
looked to be a promising means of accomplishing this goal. Early
programs such as the Interchurch World Movement focused on the
maintenance of harmonious relations between people in America's
growing industrial society. Later endeavors such as the World
Council of Churches would trend towards being global in nature with
goals moving beyond that of simply maintaining class stability in
America to elimination of national sovereignty and world governance.
While some methods have been changed over time, and names of
organizations have been altered, the overarching agenda of
Rockefeller has remained the same. As the documents will show,
multiple attempts have been made to urge the Christian churches to
get behind programs for world governance. If the attempts were not
spearheaded by Rockefellers themselves, significant financial
support was provided to organizations sharing their vision for the
world. A discernable pattern emerges, with the ability to look back
at history, that escalating world crises have served as convenient
launching points for incrementally larger pieces of the world
government agenda. If this pattern continues - and there is little
doubt that it will - we will inevitably see greater pieces locked
into place after future crises. On May 31, 2007, speaking in
Istanbul Turkey at a conference organized by Akbank [2], Henry
Kissinger alluded to this pattern of crises, stating that,
[3] Utopian ideals of a world civilization and a world government have always existed. No matter how well meaning and egalitarian they may sound, history has shown us that centralized systems almost always lead to corruption and abuse of power. Given the actions of the Rockefeller family in providing support to the Bolshevik revolution, [4] their instrumental role in the spread of eugenics policies to Nazi Germany, [5] and David Rockefeller's proud exclamation, "Some.. believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others... to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it," [6] it would seem that the solution of world government is rising out of crises that the proponents of such a system are fostering. It should be reiterated that while the Rockefeller family has been involved with promoting the ideas of world government and actively pursuing its formation, the idea did not originate with them. Utopians throughout history have promoted ideas of a world civilization and a world government, often with humanitarian aims. For example, as documented by Frederick Charles Hicks in his 1920 book "The New World Order", Royal Society member John Bellers presented in the year 1710,
The Interchurch World Movement (1919 - 1920) In the aftermath of the bloody conflict of World War I, the League of Nations was presented as a solution to the horrendous problems that the world had witnessed. During the same time period that the League of Nations was formed, John D. Rockefeller Jr. launched the Interchurch World Movement (IWM) in 1919. [1] The Interchurch World Movement was the first attempt by Rockefeller to consolidate the churches into a corporate like structure which would exercise control over their activities. The "stability of government", and the promotion of "harmonious relations" between people in an industrial society that the Rockefeller family was already dominating was a driving force behind the IWM. Charles E. Harvey, professor of history at California State University, wrote a history of the Interchurch World Movement in a 1982 paper titled "John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and the Interchurch World Movement of 1919-1920: A Different Angle on the Ecumenical Movement". Harvey traces the roots of the "social gospel" and the resulting battle between fundamental Christians and liberalism back to Rockefeller's Interchurch World Movement. Upon investigating the IWM, Harvey found that the historical information that most historians and researchers were using to research the IWM had been directly prepared by the lawyer of John D. Rockefeller Jr., a man named Raymond B. Fosdick. The doctored information, writes Harvey, was "...compiled precisely to conceal the real role Rockefeller played in the organization." more... | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | Apostasy | Killing with a Clear Conscience A Time, Times, and Half A Time (December 2, 2007) - Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy Part I: In my early writings on this blog space, I warned of the Militarization of the Alliance of Civilizations. A militarized Alliance of Civilisations is necessary for the High Level Group (HLG) to successfully conduct a war on extremism and terrorism. Most people consider those objectives to be positive. I may have too had I not read the AoC’s definitions of terrorism. When Kofi Annan first introduced the AoC, he said that the problem (civilizational tensions) is not with the faiths, but with the faithful. The AoC has since expanded on this statement. Accordingly, if you read a religious text and apply an interpretation that becomes an “exclusive” truth claim, you have thereby entered a theology of hatred and have terrorist leanings. That, they say, is a root cause of terrorism. During the Doha Debates HLG member John Esposito said:
This poses a significant problem for most monotheists
as our religious texts make exclusive truth claims. What escapes
Esposito’s attention is that most of us enjoy freedom—we can choose our
faiths and worship as we please. We respect and defend others’ rights to
do likewise. This is called respect, not hatred. Perhaps Esposito’s
vision of democracy is entirely different than mine.
Nearly a year ago I had archived a counter-terrorism piece from the Office on Drugs and Crime’s website which says:
(This link is no longer on the website, but the same
material can be found

This prompted me to check and see if the Interregional Crime and Justice
Research Institute shared the same wisdom. Sure enough, I found
counter-terrorism material by Giandomenico Picco. Picco was Kofi Annan’s
personal representative who worked on the Dialogue Among Civilizations
project and later was instrumental in
the startup
of the Alliance of Civilizations initiative. Picco’s contribution to
the AoC is certain to have a significant impact world’s religious
populations as he has most disturbingly defined terrorism which can be
found in UN publication
International Terrorism and Governmental Structures.
Here Picco explains that there are two types of terrorism, those being
tactical and strategic. Tactical terrorist are associated with groups
such as Hezbollah. Hezbollah, Picco explains, has a both a political and
military branch whereby negotiations are possible. Strategic terrorism
is based on religious belief. It is altogether different--more

According to the Scriptures The Berean Call (December 1, 2007) - The Bible makes uncompromisingly clear to all mankind its claim to be the infallible, inerrant Word of the only true and living God. It denounces all other gods and scriptures as false, as well as the religions they represent. Of Jesus, God's Word declares, "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him" (John 3:36). Peter told Jewish religious leaders (and was beaten, imprisoned, and killed for testifying to Christ's resurrection): "There is none other name...given among men whereby we must be saved" (Acts 4:12). Such unequivocal statements cannot be misunderstood. Jews would not have been persecuted and killed had they presented Yahweh as just one more god to be added to the Roman Pantheon. Christians were considered an even greater threat because in obedience to Christ they preached the gospel everywhere and thereby "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6). Even they would not have been persecuted and killed had they presented Jesus Christ as merely one of many possible saviors. It was their firm proclamation of Christ's claim, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" (John 14:6), that threatened Caesar and aroused such vicious hatred. Today, however, to avoid the objectionable exclusivity of their faith, "Christians" often compromise and many ecumenically deny the biblical gospel. Christianity is a biblical faith, and the Bible is not an "ecumenical" book. It makes no compromise with any of the world's religions. Those who support ecumenism to any extent, no matter how loudly they defend their orthodoxy, are not Bible-believing Christians. At worst they are deliberate frauds; at best they are confused into simultaneously professing two contradictory beliefs (syncretism). Which do they really believe? Speaking out of both sides of their mouths is a popular ploy today of both political and "Christian" leaders. Anyone is free to invent any new religion-but not free to call it Christianity. That faith is founded upon facts: Scripture, history, and prophecy, all of which are a matter of clear record and none of which can be changed. These facts cannot honestly be denied. What must we say of "Christian" leaders and even entire denominations that do not follow Christ and His Word? We have exposed many by name and have documented in these pages their inexcusable hypocrisy and deceit, which must be summarily rejected. Away with all duplicity! Whoever (Bush, Rice, et al.) insists that Islam is a "religion of peace" and that Allah is the God of the Bible is either deceived or lying. Islam has its founding prophet, Muhammad, who began his career with numerous murders, attacked peaceful villages and caravans, and beheaded hundreds who surrendered in exchange for his sworn promise of peace and safety. Islam has its scriptures (the Qur'an and Hadith) and 1,350 years of the bloodiest and most violent history of any religion ever known, including the merciless slaughter of millions (more millions in the take-over of India than Hitler killed in all of Eastern and Western Europe). We fully document the truth about Islam in Judgment Day , which every Berean ought to donate to his or her local public library. One can only say that all those (from Bush and Rice on down) who turn a blind eye to the indisputable truth about Islam and call this violent religion "peaceful" are engaged in a cover-up. It is indisputable that today's Islamic terrorism may not honestly be blamed upon "extremists." This is true Islam as it always has been from the beginning! Terrorists are sincere Muslims following both the teaching and example of Muhammad, the obedient example set by his loyal followers, and Islam's scriptures, which command the take-over of the entire world and death to all who will not convert. True, not every Muslim is a terrorist, but nearly every terrorist is a Muslim! more...| Islam | RCC | NewWorldOrder | America | Apostasy | Unclear EU treaty provisions causing 'nervousness' EU Observer (November 28, 2007) - Although the ink has barely dried on the EU's new treaty, analysts are already scratching their heads as to how the document, with its unclear division of power between the EU's top politicians, is going to work in practice. Come 2009, when the Reform Treaty is supposed to click into place, there will be three big jobs to be had in Brussels - the president of the European Commission; the president of the European Council and the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.

Igor Sencar, Slovenia's EU ambassador, says there are "at least 40 elements" in the treaty that have to "considered and understood" during the course of next year. Speaking at the European Policy Centre think tank in Brussels on Wednesday, Mr Sencar – whose country will run the EU during the first half of next year – says he already feels the "nervousness" in Brussels about the lack of clarity in the document. The questions run from pinning down the exact powers of the EU president; agreeing who the president will be; to sorting out the funding, personnel and scope of the diplomatic service as well as looking at issues such as whether the EU's police body, Europol, needs to be adjusted and how national ministers will fit into the EU decision-making process. Mr Sencar indicated that the issues will have to be dealt with by EU leaders and that a "common view" should be drawn up by the end of next year. Meanwhile academics and commentators in Brussels are already picking holes in the proposed political set-up contained in the new treaty. Dr Andreas Maurer from the German thinktank Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik in a recently published paper notes that the future EU president, who can hold office for up to five years risks becoming EU leaders' "play ball" because the office lacks its own ministry. "Does the new president have sufficient personnel, administrative and financial resources at his disposal" to carry out duties such as leading, preparing and giving a sense of continuity to leading EU projects, such as on climate change and energy, asks the paper. It also questions whether EU leaders will really stand behind the president on major issues and points out that there could be a "legitimacy" problem because the president is not actually accountable to anyone – neither MEPs or MPs. The foreign minister post creates its own set of problems partly because it is not completely clear where his or her duties begin and that of the council president and commission president end. Dr Maurer's paper notes that the new foreign minister, who will be both vice-president of the commission as well as chairing the regular EU foreign minister meetings, will have an "unusually large range of duties." A crucial point will be whether the foreign minister assumes the trade and development aspects of EU foreign policy when chairing the foreign ministers' meeting. If the minister does, "it will put into question" the "autonomy and the political profile of the commission" – which traditionally has strong powers in this area. more...| EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Solana | NewWorldOrder | According to Bible prophecy, a little horn will rise up among 10. Daniel 7:7,8 What is happening according to this article is an orginization of power centered around the foreign minister position. Commissioners responsible for trade and development will answer to the foreign minister, and these three positions are overlapping. We know that 10 kings are going to give their power and authority to the antichrist. Revelation 17:12-14 The world will worship the beast and feel powerless against him. Revelation 13:1-5 What this all leads to is the creation of a position that fits with Bible prophecy in centering power over trade and foreign policy through the WEU, the 10 member-state military arm of the EU.

North American Union 'a couple years away'
WorldNet Daily
(November 19, 2007)
-
Bilderberg author who 1st exposed plot in 1996 sees EU replication as
imminent. The next giant step toward world government will be
integration of the U.S., Canada and Mexico in European Union-style
merger in the next few years, says the author of a best-selling book on
the power of shadowy international organizations promoting the move. "I
would say [it's just] a couple of years away," reports Daniel Estulin,
author of "The
True Story of the Bilderberg Group." Estulin, a Canadian now living
in Europe, says the original plans for a North American Union involved
the U.S. and Canada as the prime participants. It was motivated
primarily by the desire to harvest Canada's abundant natural resources.
In his new book, Estulin reveals the first efforts in this plan date
back to 1996 when the elite Bilderberg Group first discussed plans for
the dismantlement of Canada as an independent nation and proposed its
merger – minus Quebec – with the United States into a Greater North
America. "Actually, the North American Union, or rather a Canada-U.S.
merger, was initially discussed shortly after the Reagan-Bush candidacy
won the White House," he says in an interview with WND. "Upon taking
over the reins of the country, George Bush and Ronald Reagan called in
the presidents of the key trans-national companies and asked them for
the real picture. The money people told them that if the United States
were a corporation it would have to be shut down immediately. It was
bankrupt." The solution proposed then, according to Estulin, was merger
between the U.S. and Canada. "Canada is virgin country with a multitude
of natural resources, water, mines, oil, gas, etc.," he explains. "They
decided that it was going to take 14 or 15 years to put the whole
project together. In the interval, the economies, social programs and
laws of the two countries would be quietly harmonized as much as
possible." Back then, part of that harmonization plan involved the
separation of Quebec as an independent state, he says. "Actually, when
all is said and done, it all comes down to money," Estulin says. "Money
makes its own rules. If your goal is to make the most money possible
using Canada's natural resources, what would you ask for? Number one,
give me control over the sun. Number two, give me control over the air.
Number three, give me control over water. Now, we know we cannot control
the sun, nor can we control the air. But we can control water. Water,
after all, is the most important element that can be controlled." But
the plot for a North American Union, as exposed in detail in Jerome
Corsi's new bestselling book,
"The Late Great USA," is but a prelude, Estulin says, to the
ultimate merger – one-world government. more... World on the verge of climate catastrophe: UN chief The Times of India (November 17, 2007) - UN Chief Ban Ki-moon called on Saturday for urgent action on global warming, warning the world is on the verge of a catastrophe, as top scientists were due to issue a new report on climate change for policymakers. "We all agree. Climate change is real, and we humans are its chief cause. Yet even now, few people fully understand the gravity of the threat, or its immediacy," the UN chief wrote in a commentary in the International Herald Tribune. "I have always considered global warming to be a matter of utmost urgency. Now I believe we are on the verge of a catastrophe if we do not act." Ban noted recent acceleration in the melting of glaciers and polar ice, and pointed out that the collapse of an at-risk Antarctic ice shelf could raise sea levels by up to six metres (18 feet), inundating costal cities New York, Mumbai and Shanghai. "I am not scare-mongering. But I believe we are nearing a tipping point," wrote the UN chief. Ban will preside over the presentation Saturday in Valencia, Spain of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) landmark report intended to help policymakers facing tough decisions on cutting pollution from fossil fuels, shifting to cleaner energy and bolstering defences against drought, flood, storms and other problems set to intensify through climate change. He characterised the report's conclusions as "encouraging." "The over-arching message: we can beat this. There are real and affordable ways to deal with climate change," wrote Ban.| EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | Earth Changes |
Saudi minister warns of dollar collapse The
Business (November 17, 2007) - The
dollar could collapse if Opec officially admits considering changing the
pricing of oil into alternative currencies such as the euro, the Saudi
Arabian foreign minister has warned. Prince Saud Al-Faisal was overheard
ruling out a proposal from Iran and Venezuela to discuss pricing crude
in a private meeting at the oil cartel's conference. In an embarrassing
blunder at the meeting in Riyadh, ministers' microphones were not cut
off during a key closed meeting, and Prince Al-Faisal was heard saying:
"My feeling is that the mere mention that the Opec countries are
studying the issue of the dollar is itself going to have an impact that
endangers the interests of the countries. "There will be journalists who
will seize on this point and we don't want the dollar to collapse
instead of doing something good for Opec." After around 40 minutes press
officials cut off the feed, which had been accidentally broadcast to the
press room. Prince Al-Faisal added: "This is not new. We have done this
in the past: decide to study something without putting down on paper
that we are going to study it so that we avoid any implication that will
bring adverse effects on our countries' finances." Iran and Venezuela
have argued that the meeting's final communique should voice concern
about the level of the dollar, which has recently fallen to new record
lows against the euro. They are pushing for oil to be denominated
against a basket of currencies. more...
American Gangster's Wad of Euros Signals U.S. Decline Bloomberg
(November 14, 2007)
- "It may be our currency, but it's your problem'' was Treasury
Secretary John Connally's taunt when the U.S. unhooked the dollar from
the gold standard in 1971, unilaterally rewriting the rules of world
business in America's favor. Now the world is taunting back. Almost four
decades after the U.S. tore up the monetary arrangements that governed
the post-World War II international economy, the dollar's fall from
grace amounts to a tectonic shift in the global hierarchy. This time,
the U.S. currency is on the losing side. After declining in five of the
last six years, the weakest dollar in the era of floating currencies
reflects a period of diminished U.S. political and economic hegemony.
Whoever wins the White House next year will confront two unpopular
choices: Accept the fall in U.S. clout and the rise of new rivals, or
rein in record public and consumer debt that the rest of the world no
longer wants to bankroll. "What we're seeing is a very broad rebalancing
of economic and political power in the world,'' says Jeffrey Garten, a
Yale School of Business professor who was the Commerce Department's
undersecretary for international trade in the Clinton administration.
``The scales are moving, and they're moving quite fast.'' The dollar
blues have migrated from the halls of central banks to images of rap
musicians. In a video for the movie "American Gangster,'' hip-hop
maestro Jay-Z thumbs through a wad of 500-euro notes on a night of
cruising through the concrete canyons of New York, a city where the euro
isn't legal tender. The euro gained against the dollar today as European
economic growth in the third quarter accelerated more than forecast.

Say Goodbye To Privacy
Haaretz
(November 13, 2007) - Privacy doesn't mean
anonymity. Think about that for a bit - and get used to it. Or if you
don't like it, get a plan. But it had better be a good one. On Oct. 23,
Donald Kerr, deputy director of the Office of National Intelligence,
outlined the new order of things: "Too often, privacy has been equated
with anonymity; and it's an idea that is deeply rooted in American
culture." Well, yes, the Bill of Rights, for instance, includes
protections against "search," as well as "seizure." But that was then.
As Kerr put it, "In our interconnected and wireless world, anonymity -
or the appearance of anonymity - is quickly becoming a thing of the
past." Kerr's speech got little notice until The Drudge Report
highlighted an Associated Press write-up. No doubt, of course, the
Office of National Intelligence will soon issue a soothing statement
assuring us that the government indeed respects your privacy and your
anonymity. And we've all heard that line before: "Nothing to see here
folks, just move along." Then Uncle Sam will resume perfecting his
warrantless surveillance. In fact, the old equation - privacy equals
anonymity - is being buzz-sawed six ways. First and most obviously,
terrorism concerns. If you're walking through Times Square carrying a
backpack and acting strangely, inquiring minds will want to know why.
And Godspeed to cops brave enough to tap that shoulder. Second, and
closely related, the proliferation of cameras and Webcams. Nobody likes
to be spied on, but many people - including parents keeping tabs on
baby-sitters - like to spy. In the coming face-off, the spies have it.
Third, health insurance. We have decided, collectively, to be generous
with each other in terms of "human services." But though most Americans
are happy to operate a welfare state for Americans, they draw the line
at subsidizing the world. So as a matter of administrative necessity,
the Nurse State will have to know exactly who you are - and your legal
status. Fourth, the reality that medical treatment now depends on
medical information. If doctors are to help you, they need to know your
medical history - not just blood type and allergies, but everything
about you, including your genetic background. Such monitoring is fraught
with controversy - recent headline in The New York Times: "In DNA Era,
New Worries About Prejudice" - but this is the era of the instant Q-Tip
identity test. more...
United Nations to expand police force Associated
Press (November 1, 2007) - With the
world facing new security threats, the U.N. is planning for an
unprecedented expansion of its police missions. U.N. officials say a
shift in the nature of conflicts requires revamped peacekeeping
operations. Traditionally, the U.N. has facilitated peace between
warring states by sending its blue-helmeted soldiers to man buffer zones
between their armies. But today, interventions are increasingly focused
on settling civil wars. "In recent years the character of conflicts has
changed dramatically from mainly state-to-state wars (to) intrastate
conflicts which pit various factions within the boundaries of a single
state," U.N. Police Chief Andrew Hughes said. As a result, there is a
greater need than ever for conventional police duties in post-conflict
situations. Nowhere is this highlighted more clearly than in Darfur. The
U.N. is recruiting nearly 7,000 police officers to assist some 20,000
U.N. peacekeeper-soldiers in trying to end the four-year conflict in
western Sudan. Police involvement in peacekeeping dates from the
inaugural 1948 mission, when first Secretary-General Trygve Lie urgently
dispatched several dozen U.N. security guards from New York to Jerusalem
when Jewish extremists assassinated the U.N. peace envoy Folke
Bernadotte. In later interventions, however, the U.N. has come to rely
mostly on soldiers to monitor cease-fires or interpose themselves
between warring sides, as happened in the Sinai after the 1956
Egypt-Israel war, or later in disputed Kashmir, Cyprus and Lebanon. The
Balkan wars of the 1990s put renewed focus on peacekeeping by police
units. "In such conflicts, once peace is restored the U.N. then has a
key role in re-establishing rule of law, which includes police, courts,
prisons and the whole justice sector, and to ensure that they rebuild or
build up from scratch their police services," Hughes said. "Our duties
included everything a policeman can possibly do, from breaking up
domestic disturbances to chasing and arresting armed criminals," said
Irhad Campara, a Bosnian policeman who served in the U.N. mission in
East Timor. "In addition, we recruited, vetted and trained from scratch
East Timor's new national police force." Whereas military units are
dispatched by governments, police officers are recruited on individual
contracts from contributing nations. They continue to collect their home
pay but receive an extra daily allowance of $150 and accommodation from
the U.N. more... Now imagine a world in chaos where global governance uses the police forces in conjunction with military forces to enforce peace. Or further along, enforce worship of the antichrist. It's all leading to prophetic fulfillment. CFR, Bilderbergers, Trilateral Commission insiders usually run for, win White House, shows new book WorldNet Daily (November 1, 2007) - Nearly every person elected as president of the United States since then – and nearly every opponent – has belonged to a secretive, globalism-oriented organization known as the Council on Foreign Relations. Some presidents and their challengers have belonged to additional clubs of internationalists – the Bilderberg Group and the Trilateral Commission. Running mates, too, more often than not have had ties to the groups. That the groups exert enormous influence on public policy is indisputable. What is disputed is whether such groups are, as adherents and members argue, just discussion forums for movers and shakers, or, as critics have long alleged, secret societies shaping a new world order from behind the scenes. On that last point at least, no one could challenge the critics: All these groups operate in considerable secrecy, away from the scrutiny of the American public. Regardless of how one characterizes them, the fact that virtually all presidents belong to the same secret clubs prompts the author of a new book to wonder if the 2008 election will also be a contest between globalist insiders. Judging from the list of frontrunners of each party, Daniel Estulin, author of "The True Story of the Bilderberg Group," may be on to something. According to a variety of sources, the following presidential candidates are either members of one of the groups or have strong ties: Hillary Rodham Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Barack Obama, John McCain, John Edwards, Fred Thompson, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd and Bill Richardson. Mike Huckabee, though not a member, spoke to the CFR in September. Since then, his political star has risen to the point that he has become a top-tier candidate. So often throughout recent history it has been the case. Ever since Democrat Adlai Stevenson challenged Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1952 and 1956, the odds have significantly favored those with membership in the elite groups.
"David Rockefeller, whose family financed the CFR, is
a common denominator among these parallel groups," writes Estulin. "Not
only is he the CFR chairman emeritus, but he also continues to provide
financial and personal support to the TC, CFR and Bilderberg Group."
What is the agenda behind these groups, which Estulin says are comprised
of "self-interested elitists protecting their wealth and the investments
of multinational banks and corporations in the growing world economy at
the expense of developing nations and Third World countries"? "The
policies they develop," he writes, "benefit them as well as move us
towards a one-world government." Those questioning Estulin's conclusion
as mere speculation need only recall organizational financer David
Rockefeller's own words as recorded in his "Memoirs." "Some even believe
we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the
United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists'
and conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated
global political and economic structure – one world, if you will," he
wrote. "If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."
With regard to insider roles in recent U.S. presidential races, two of
the most interesting were 1976 and 1992. more...
Guess who Europe's subsidizing? The
Jerusalem Post (October 30, 2007) -
The European Union and its member countries have been subsidizing
various opponents of Israel for many years. A study, just published by
the Dutch Center for Documentation and Information on Israel contains
perhaps the most detailed investigation of one such case. A group called
United Civilians for Peace is a joint venture of five Dutch NGOs. Fifty
to 90% of their budgets
are funded by the Dutch
government and the European Union. A sixth partner left UCP in view of
its extreme anti-Israeli activities. UCP - among other things -
publishes research about "Dutch economic links in support of the Israeli
occupation of Palestinian and/or Syrian territories." Journalist Joost
de Haas, writing in the Dutch Telegraaf summed up the 50-plus
page report by the Dutch Center for Documentation saying: "A peace
organization financed with taxpayers money is guided by the Palestinian
terror organization Hamas and supports the Iranian atom bomb." The EU
and the Dutch government thus indirectly finance Dutch opponents of
Israel. This story is the tip of a European iceberg of financial support
for anti-Israeli bodies. NGO Monitor has exposed various state
agencies which finance extreme anti-Israeli organizations. In an article
in the Swiss daily Le Temps, Gerald Steinberg, who heads NGO
Monitor cited examples of such support by the Swiss Agency for
Development & Cooperation. A few months ago the Jewish Chronicle
wrote that Israeli diplomats intended to raise claims with the Irish
government that its Irish Aid Department was financing
anti-Israeli NGOs some of
which promote the demonization of Israel and boycott actions. The
Swedish International Development Agency is also involved in financing
extreme anti-Israeli groups. IN AN interview with Rijk van Dam, a former
Dutch member of the European Parliament he told me that the government
of Finland had contributed millions of Euros to pay for Palestinian
textbooks which promote the hate of Israel. In 2004 Wall Street Journal
op-ed writer Daniel Schwammenthal detailed how difficult it was to
obtain information on the funding of the PLO by European governments.
This, while the latter claimed their activities were transparent.
Earlier this year the Israeli government criticized the British embassy
in Tel Aviv for contributing funds to a study on the security barrier
and its impact on the Palestinians. A Foreign Ministry source said: "It
is interference by Britain in an internal Israeli matter. How would they
react in London if our embassy was to fund a British research
organization that is trying to promote an agenda critical [of their
government]. This is not acceptable in international relations." AND
THEN there is the abuse by the Palestinian Authority of part of the many
billions of Euros it gets in funding from the EU. Van Dam says: "There
is no doubt that a substantial portion of European funding has served
purposes such as corruption and terrorism." He added that at a meeting
in the European Parliament the then Palestinian finance minister [and now Prime
Minister Salam Fayad] was asked how European money was spent. He replied
that he did not know, not a penny was left, and it had all gone to the
pockets of fat cats.
more... It's not too big of a surprise that Europe, and America for that matter, are ultimately funding those behind the chaos in the Middle East. Why? According to the plans for a New World Order, global governance will be brought about through a series of wars and chaotic struggles that will wear out the people and through their desire for peace and safety, hand over their freedoms and sovereignty to one man who will eventually demand worship as God. Sound preposterous? Don't be surprised when it happens as the Bible says it will. Read this
The European Union is the most popular great power - more people across
all continents want to see its power increase
Open Democracy (October
30, 2007) - An ambitious survey of public opinion around the
world contains valuable findings of great interest to the world's
citizens and policymakers alike. The project, conducted by Voice of the
People for the European Council on Foreign Relations and released on 25
October 2007, has discovered: There is widespread support for a more
multipolar world and a greater role for "herbivorous powers" - countries
not widely perceived as military superpowers. There is mistrust of the
cold-war powers as well as Islamist-inspired Iranian autocracy. More
people want to see a decline rather than an increase in the power of
Russia (29 percent decline, 23 percent increase), of China (32 percent
decline, 24 percent increase), of the United States (37 percent decline,
26 percent increase), and of Iran (39 percent decline, 14 percent
increase). On the other hand, there is strong support for an increase in
the power of fast-developing powers such as South Africa, India and
Brazil (the "IBSA" countries). The European Union is the most popular
great power. Uniquely among great powers, more people across all
continents want to see its power increase than decrease. This demand for
more European power extends to many former European colonies. Whilst
American soft power has declined, the rise of China has led to a
resurgence in support for American power in Asia. Increasing Russian
influence in Eastern Europe is paralleled by a demand for a greater
American role. Outside Europe, "the west" is still seen to some extent
as a single actor: countries suspicious of American power tend also to
be against EU power. In the run-up to the Iraq war, Mary Robinson called
global public opinion the "second superpower." She may have exaggerated
its ability to sway the decision to invade Iraq, but she was right to
point to its importance as a source of legitimacy in world politics.
Even in the many places where citizens cannot vote in free and fair
elections, governments constantly poll the public to understand their
aspirations and pre-empt them. Their findings can have an impact on
decisions about war and peace and can even affect the positions they
defend in institutions such as the United Nations and World Trade
Organization. more... House Passes Thought Crime Prevention Bill RogueGovernment.com (October 25, 2007) - The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed HR 1955 titled the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007. This bill is one of the most blatant attacks against the Constitution yet and actually defines thought crimes as homegrown terrorism. If passed into law, it will also establish a commission and a Center of Excellence to study and defeat so called thought criminals. Unlike previous anti-terror legislation, this bill specifically targets the civilian population of the United States and uses vague language to define homegrown terrorism. Amazingly, 404 of our elected representatives from both the Democrat and Republican parties voted in favor of this bill. There is little doubt that this bill is specifically targeting the growing patriot community that is demanding the restoration of the Constitution. First let’s take a look at the definitions of violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism as defined in Section 899A of the bill. The definition of violent radicalization uses vague language to define this term of promoting any belief system that the government considers to be an extremist agenda. Since the bill doesn’t specifically define what an extremist belief system is, it is entirely up to the interpretation of the government. Considering how much the government has done to destroy the Constitution they could even define Ron Paul supporters as promoting an extremist belief system. Literally, the government according to this definition can define whatever they want as an extremist belief system. Essentially they have defined violent radicalization as thought crime. The definition as defined in the bill is shown below.
The definition of homegrown terrorism uses equally vague language to further define thought crime. The bill includes the planned use of force or violence as homegrown terrorism which could be interpreted as thinking about using force or violence. Not only that but the definition is so vaguely defined, that petty crimes could even fall into the category of homegrown terrorism. The definition as defined in the bill is shown below.
Section 899B of the bill goes over the findings of Congress as it
pertains to homegrown terrorism. Particularly alarming is that the bill
mentions the Internet as a main source for terrorist propaganda. The
bill even mentions streams in obvious reference to many of the patriot
and pro-constitution Internet radio networks that have been formed. It
also mentions that homegrown terrorists span all ages and races
indicating that the Congress is stating that everyone is a potential
terrorist. Even worse is that Congress states in their findings that
they should look at draconian police states like Canada, Australia and
the United Kingdom as models to defeat homegrown terrorists. Literally,
these findings of Congress fall right in line with the growing patriot
community. The biggest joke of all is that this section also says that
any measure to prevent violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism
should not violate the constitutional rights of citizens. However, the
definition of violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism as they are
defined in section 899A are themselves unconstitutional. The
Constitution does not allow the government to arrest people for thought
crimes, so any promises not to violate the constitutional rights of
citizens are already broken by their own definitions. more...
Narco-Dollars for
Beginners "How the Money Works" in the Illicit Drug Trade
Narco News
(October 24, 2001) - The Solari Index is my way of
estimating how well a place is doing. It is based upon the percentage of people
in a place who believe that a child can leave their home and go to the nearest
place to buy a popsicle and come home alone safely. When I was a child growing
up in the 1950's at 48th and Larchwood in West Philadelphia, the Solari Index
was 100 percent. It was unthinkable that a child was not safe running up to the
stores on Spruce Street for a popsicle and some pin ball. The Dow Jones was
about 500, the Solari Index was 100 percent and our debt per person was very
low. Of course I did not think about it that way at the time. All I knew was
that life on the street with my buddies was sweet. Today, the Dow Jones is over
9,000, debt per person is over $100,000 and the my favorite hairdresser in
Philadelphia, Al at the Hair Hut in West Philadelphia, and I just had a debate
yesterday afternoon while Al was cutting my hair about whether the Solari Index
in my old neighborhood was 0 percent (my position) or 10 percent (Al's
position). Men always think it is higher than women. Despite the boy-girl spread
between us, it is fair to say that Al and I agree that the Solari Index is in
the tank ---both in the streets of Philadelphia and throughout America. Life on
the street ain't sweet any more. I watched the slide of the Solari Index as a
child. A lot of it had to do with narcotics trafficking and the people that
narco dollars put in power on our streets - and in city hall, in the banks, in
Congress and the corporations and investors down town and that ring the city. My
mission is to see the Solari Index return to 100 percent and to do so in a
manner that moves the Dow up and our debt per person down and makes me and my
partners a whole pile of money. A few years back when my efforts to improve the
Solari Index were threatening to reduce narcotics profits in a few places, I
discovered that I could not look to the enforcement or the judicial
establishment funded with my tax dollars to protect me. Narco dollars had the
upper hand throughout government and the legal establishment. That's when I
decided that I would have to learn how the money works on the drug trade. Here is what I have learned that has
been useful to me---- and may help you have a better map of how narco dollars
impact you, your business, your family and the Solari Index in your
neighborhood.
more... The love of money is the root of all evil. Please read the whole series of articles this begins. I found the Solari website from an interview on Coast to Coast AM with Catherine Austin Fitts on January 2, 2008. The show was regarding America's current economic crisis. Catherine is an insider who worked with HUD as the Assistant Secretary of Housing for the Federal Housing Commissioner and was Managing Director and member of the Board for Dillon Read & Co. Inc. Her experience reveals a dark side to money and politics to manipulate the masses for profits leading to the current crisis. Read her article The American Tapeworm for more. Is America's Sovereignty Obsolete? HumanEvents.com (October 22, 2007) - When Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said, “Americans have lost trust in their government” at the Values Voters’ gathering in Washington, DC, there was more than a wee bit of irony in his words. McCain elaborated on the theme yesterday on “Fox News Sunday,” saying the distrust comes from corruption in Washington, frustration at the Iraq war, incompetence in the Katrina relief and from failure to deal with illegal immigration. The irony is in the confluence of the two McCains: recognition that part of the distrust of government arises from a failure -- now six years after 9-11 -- to secure our borders from incursion by illegal aliens. McCain’s realization is not shared by President Bush whose press secretaries -- first Tony Snow and now Dana Perino -- have said that he is still convinced he was right in the failed “comprehensive” approach to illegal immigration which translated into amnesty for illegal aliens and would not have secured our borders. It is no exaggeration to say that a nation which does not secure its borders cannot claim sovereignty. Sovereignty -- the supremacy of political power a nation has over its own actions -- seems to mean a great deal less to free world leaders than to their Chinese, Russian and Islamist counterparts. It is important to frame the issue just that way because among the free nations, especially in Europe, sovereignty is eroding and unfree nations guard their sovereignty with paranoid fervor. The leaders of too many free nations -- including President Bush -- appear to be in competition to give away their nations’ sovereignty by placing more and more authority in supranational organizations like the UN and the European Union which are not accountable to voters. This week will feature “UN Day” and we’ll again be lectured about international law and how we owe the world -- which means the UN -- respect for the ‘laws’ it adopts. Under the UN charter, which we signed sixty years ago, resolutions of the UN Security Council have the force of international “law.” But what does that mean? Judge Robert Bork memorably wrote in “Coercing Virtue”:
To foreign elites and our “intellectual class”, American sovereignty
is passé: a concept that has outlived its time that should be limited at
every opportunity by international “law” in the form of treaties and
decisions of the Security Council and UN-created courts. American
sovereignty is based on our Constitution. There is no provision in the
Constitution for US law to be made by the UN or any of the “courts” it
creates. George W. Bush may go down in the history books incorrectly as
a “unilateralist” president for taking action in Iraq, but his legacy --
most of which is still undecided -- may be just the opposite. George
Bush waited six months, from September 2002 to March 2003 -- in military
terms, nearly an eternity -- for the UN to act before he threw
the most-telegraphed punch in American military history.
Conservatives were properly critical when Supreme Court Justices Anthony
Kennedy and then-Justice Sandra Day O’Connor referenced European law in
deciding a case arising under our Constitution. The idea of injecting
foreign or “international” law created by any body other than our
Congress -- limited by the Constitutional checks and balances of the
Congress and the Executive -- is in contradiction to our sovereignty.
But as Andy McCarthy
wrote here last week, President Bush took a position against Texas’
right to decide its own law in death penalty cases in favor of a treaty
from which he had previously withdrawn the United States and which was
probably unconstitutional. The president’s whittling away at American
sovereignty continues. As
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex) and
Chris Horner say elsewhere on our pages today, the UN Law of the Sea
Treaty -- rejected long ago by President Reagan -- now awaits Senate
ratification because President Bush chose to submit it for that
purpose. LOST would establish a tax on deep-seabed mining payable to
the UN and controls over America’s economy by regulating pollution that
affects the seas. These powers are to be vested in an international
court that is unaccountable to US voters and not bound by - and thus
violate - the Constitution. European leaders have now decided on a new
version of the European Union “constitution” that is essentially the
same as the version rejected by French and Dutch voters two years ago.
They plan to make it effective without submitting it to the voters
again. Britain has no constitution to protect its citizens so even
there, where no vote has ever been taken, the Brown government plans to
surrender its sovereignty and adopt the EU “treaty,” binding England to
the product of the European elites. Europe may be beyond saving, but
America is not. We shall, by dint of the work of Sen. Cornyn and
like-minded conservatives, survive President Bush’s erosion of America’s
political power to decide our own policies and, ultimately, our fate.
Who comes after Mr. Bush may continue the erosion or end it and repair
the damage. We know Hillary Clinton will do what Kerry promised not to.
In her article in “Foreign Affairs” last week (about which more shall
appear here), she hinted that she would seek ratification of the Kyoto
“Global Warming” treaty, saying we need a, “…binding global climate
agreement.” She also called for strengthening and reliance on the whole
internationalist alphabet soup of bureaucracies including the
International Labor Organization and the World Trade Organization. Will
any of the Republicans do better? Mitt Romney last week declared the UN
a failure. But how will he -- or any of his competitors -- stop the
erosion of our sovereignty and restore it to what the Founding Fathers
designed?

America becoming conspiracy nation WorldNet
Daily (November
24, 2007) - If you believe the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, against
the World Trade Center and the Pentagon came without any specific
warning, a new poll says the person on your left and the person on your
right think you're wrong. Almost two-thirds of Americans think it is
possible some officials in the federal government had specific
information about the pending attacks, but chose to ignore it
and take no action to protect the country, according to a Scripps Howard
News Service/Ohio University poll. The national survey of more than 800
U.S. adults conducted by
Scripps Survey Research Center at Ohio University
echoes a similar one by the same organization in 2006 that found more
than a third of Americans believing the U.S. government somehow assisted
in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, or else took no steps to stop
them from occurring, so the Bush administration could launch a war in
the Middle East. In the most recent poll, researchers found more than
one-third of Americans subscribe to a range of conspiracy theories,
including the 9/11 attacks, the assassination of President John F.
Kennedy, soaring oil prices and UFOs. The reason? The Bush
administration, according to an academic interviewed by Scripps Howard
News Service. "You wouldn't have gotten these numbers a year or two
after the attacks themselves," said University of Florida law professor
Mark Fenster.
"You've got an increasingly disaffected public that is unhappy with the
administration." "What it could mean is that people are thinking that
the Bush administration is incompetent, that there were warnings out
there and they chose to put their attention on other things," Fenster
said. Fenster is author of the book "Conspiracy Theories: Secrecy and
Power in American Culture." more...
San Francisco to give illegal aliens ID cards Reuters
(November 21, 2007) - San Francisco
will give resident identification cards to illegal immigrants under a
plan approved on Tuesday amid a fierce nationwide debate on granting
privileges to undocumented aliens. In a 10-1 vote, the city's board of
supervisors -- the equivalent of a city council -- approved giving
identification cards to all residents, including illegal immigrants. The
move makes San Francisco the largest U.S. city to back such a plan.
Residents will be able to obtain the resident cards by presenting photo
identification and proof they live in the city, such as a utility bill.
It was unclear if the new cards, which will be accepted at libraries and
health clinics, will carry photos. Such a move had been expected from
San Francisco, which is famously liberal. Earlier this year, Mayor Gavin
Newsom said he would not allow city officials and employees to assist
immigration raids by federal authorities seeking people who had
committed crimes or disregarded deportation orders. San Francisco, which
declared itself a "sanctuary city" in 1989, also this year launched a
program to provide medical care to uninsured residents regardless of
their immigration status. At the state level, California's Republican
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has vetoed bills that would allow
undocumented aliens to obtain state identification cards, including
driver's licenses. By contrast, New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, a Democrat,
proposed giving illegal immigrants drivers licenses. But he was forced
to drop the plan last week due to overwhelming opposition, even from
presidential candidates from his own party like Hillary Clinton.
Dollar plunges to new record Euro low AFP
(November 21, 2007) - The dollar on
Wednesday slumped to a fresh record low against the euro owing to weaker
US growth projections and the prospect of another cut to American
interest rates, traders said. The European single currency struck a
record peak of 1.4855 dollars -- the highest level since the euro's
creation in 1999. Later in European trade, the euro stood at 1.4835
dollars, compared with 1.4836 in New York late on Tuesday. "The dollar
has come under renewed downward pressure after relatively upbeat real
GDP forecasts by the Federal Reserve were coupled with warnings over the
risks to growth from deteriorating financial market conditions," said
Lee Hardman, currency economist at The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi in
London. The US central bank on Wednesday trimmed back its growth
projections citing weakness in housing and tighter credit conditions,
but suggested policymakers are unsure about future rate decisions. The
Federal Reserve projected growth next year in a range of 1.8 to 2.5
percent, down from a prior forecast of 2.5 to 2.75 percent. The Fed had
slashed borrowing costs by a hefty half-point in September followed by
another quarter-point cut last month in the wake of a collapse in the
subprime housing market, which sees mortgages loaned to high-risk
borrowers. "Given that financial market conditions today have
deteriorated notably since the end of October, the prospect for monetary
easing in December remains realistic," Hardman said. "Hence we continue
to believe the dollar will remain under downward pressure as the
dislocation in financial markets persists and market participants price
additional monetary easing in 2008 into the curve," he added. A further
reduction in US interest rates would likely make the dollar even less
attractive to investors. Meanwhile the dollar's fall to the 108-yen
level raised new questions about whether the Bank of Japan would
intervene to rein in the strong yen, which hurts Japanese exporters, as
it did a decade ago. Top government officials have recently played down
talk of intervention, arguing that a strong yen also had benefits for
the Japanese economy. more... The dollar has to fail in conjunction with uninhibited illegal immigration and job outsourcing to weaken US sovereignty and merge us into the global governance while preparing the population for that change. I expect this trend will continue to the collapse and perhaps this will be used by the European banks to bring America under them.
EU Vows To
Shape Globalisation EU
Observer (October 22, 2007)
- Having finally put six
years of institutional wrangling behind it with last week's
agreement on a new treaty, the 27-nation EU says it is now
confident to face outside challenges. In December, EU leaders
are expected to adopt a declaration, which should underline the
bloc's change of priorities – moving from institutional matters
towards issues such as globalisation and climate change. "We
have agreed that we should rule out further institutional change
for years ahead", UK prime minister Gordon Brown said on Friday
(19 October) – something he said he personally hoped would be
the case for at least a decade. The union now has less than two
months to agree a list of new priorities linked to globalisation
and subsequently move on to agreeing the best political recipe
for how to deal with the phenomenon. According to the
European Commission, the EU should avoid being a passive
spectator, but rather "shape" globalisation. In
practice, it is promoting the so-called principle of reciprocity
- meaning trading partners should open their markets as
much as the EU does. "We should be open, but not naive.
We should not close our doors, rather we should encourage others
to open theirs", commission president Jose Manuel Barroso said,
suggesting that openness is a two-way street and that third
countries should offer comparable levels of openness to EU
exporters and investors. In addition, foreign companies
wishing to do business in EU territory should not be allowed to
by-pass the rules applied in the union's internal market. Speaking
at the EU summit Friday (19 October), French president Nicolas
Sarkozy proved to be the strongest advocate of such a principle.
"Let's not be naive, we must demand a reciprocity",
he said, complaining about the severe environmental and social
requirements placed upon EU businesses, but not followed by
their non-European competitors. "We have to remind others there
are rights as well as obligations", Mr Sarkozy added, singling
out Russia and China. According to scripture, Daniel 9:26,27, the antichrist is the future prince of those who destroyed Jerusalem in 70AD, the Romans. We now have a reviving of the Roman Empire as described in the symbology of Bible prophecy. To learn more about this, click here. Europe is going to be the center of the global government that the antichrist will control. That structure is currently in existence and is working to control the world. Already the US is beginning to give over sovereignty by the rule of law and placing our nation under the dictates of outside governments. This will continue more and more until America becomes part of this global governance. Don't think that's possible? Many things will change very quickly and the world will not remain the way it is today. Already the control by finances is well under way and indeed our "Federal Reserve" is actually owned by private bankers, many from outside the US.

Weak Dollar Allows Foreigners to Snap Up U.S. Firms News Max (October 16, 2007) - Bargain-hunting foreigners are snapping up U.S. companies at a record pace as the weak dollar, a growing trade imbalance and spiking oil prices spark a raid on America’s corporate assets. Through September, foreign firms have spent $276 billion to acquire U.S. businesses, according to Thomson Financial. At that rate, the 2007 total will easily surpass 2000’s record of $325 billion in foreign buy-outs. With the dollar at a record low against most major foreign currencies, and with a robust economy abroad, “It’s a fire sale for companies in Europe, Canada, Australia and some emerging markets that want to buy in the U.S.,” says David Gilmore, a partner at consulting firm Foreign Exchange Analytics in Essex, Conn. The biggest deals over the past two years include:
Earlier this month, Canada’s Toronto-Dominion Bank
announced an $8.5 billion deal to acquire Commerce Bank of Cherry Hill,
N.J. The trend not only raises national security red flags but has also
sparked concerns that U.S. assets--and associated investment
returns--are increasingly falling into foreign hands, experts say. “If
they’re productive investments, foreigners will receive the dividends
rather than Americans, but that’s the consequence of living beyond your
means,” says Michael Klein, professor of economics at Tufts University.

New FDA research center rife with risks Associated
Press (October 14, 2007) - The
Food and Drug Administration is moving with unprecedented speed to
launch a drug research center to be paid for by companies it
regulates. The goal of the Reagan-Udall Foundation, approved by
Congress and signed into law late last month, is to streamline and
improve the development of drugs and medical devices, a goal long
sought by regulators and the biggest players in the industry, such
as Merck & Co., Pfizer Inc., Wyeth, GlaxoSmithKline PLC, and Johnson
& Johnson. At a time when the FDA's reputation has been battered by
perceptions that it is lax on some safety issues and too cozy with
drug makers, consumer advocates say the loosely defined partnership
increases the agency's vulnerability to industry clout despite its
promise of groundbreaking success. It's an ambitious undertaking
that puts regulators and companies in a relationship unlike that of
any other industry. Congress required fast-track creation of the
foundation. The FDA filed a public notice Oct. 3 that it was
accepting board nominations and will name board members Oct. 27.
Drug industry executives likely will hold four seats on the center's
14-member board. The rest will be academics, consumer advocates and
physicians, with no voting seats for FDA commissioners or staff. The
board's makeup could allow drugs to be developed more cheaply,
improving pharmaceutical industry profits, but not necessarily
result in safer and less expensive drugs for consumers, critics
worry. "Given FDA's track record in the past, I'm not confident in
their ability to create something that is free of influence from
industry," said Francesca Grifo, a director at the Union of
Concerned Scientists. Her group and others have argued that the
agency has become too accommodating to drug companies the past 25
years, after they began paying FDA user fees for the review of drug
applications. "Time and again we've seen that people within FDA
behave as if industry is their primary client," Grifo said. Sen.
Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., a co-sponsor of the bill to create the
foundation, says the bill requires "effective safeguards to ensure
that the foundation is independent of both the FDA and its donors,
whether those donors are from industry or are charitable
organizations." Reagan-Udall "will make new research tools and
techniques available to the entire research community, shortening
the time it takes to develop new drugs and reducing costs for
patients," Kennedy added in an e-mailed response. more... I don't trust the pharmaceutical industry and according to scripture it is called witchcraft, or Pharmacia. Do you think you can trust men playing with chemicals to provide unnatural chemical combinations to introduce to our bodies? I think our health and well being has much more to do with our spiritual condition. (I had cancer) Part of the unspoken push from a spiritual sense is to deaden our senses and lull us into compliance. The fruits of the industry are a generation blinded and drugged out, dependent on the very chemicals that can put us to sleep. With the ability for these companies to directly advertise their poison on TV directly to the users, they can get more people hooked, even with all the negative side-effects they list for the potential slight benefits. There is also many stories about doctors getting kickbacks from the industry in exchange for offering their drugs. Another somewhat related story, Pfizer joins online doctors' forum, talks about a forum online meant to keep the pharmaceutical companies out of doctors conversations. However, now Pfizer has made an alliance with the site. Christians beware! We are to be awake, sober and watchful. God is able to heal better than ignorant men's tinkering with chemicals that cause more problems, trust in God over men.
Outrage Erupts Over Bush Demands in Murder Case
WorldNet Daily
(October 10, 2007) -
What the U.S. government
wants in the Medellin murder case, now being heard before the U.S.
Supreme Court, is "bizarrely grotesque," according to the chief counsel
for the
Alliance Defense Fund. And
the warning from ADF Chief Counsel
Benjamin Bull notes that the case, being pursued by President Bush
through the Department of Justice, could result in U.S. laws being
subjugated to U.N. resolutions and rules to the point that local police
officers will have to spend more time studying international law than
catching criminals. "The notion that an international body can Mirandize
the right of an illegal immigrant to call a consulate, so that if the
local police trip up and innocently don't to it, a convicted
rapist-torturer-murderer goes free, goes beyond bizarrely grotesque,"
Bull, whose organization has filed an amicus brief on the issue, told
WND. At issue is the death penalty verdict for Jose Medellin, who
confessed in 1993 to participating in the rape and murder of two Houston
teenagers. Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena were sodomized and
strangled with their shoe laces. Medellin then boasted of keeping one
girl's Mickey Mouse watch as a souvenir of the crime. The Bush
administration is before the U.S. Supreme Court seeking to overturn the
death penalty, at the behest of the International Court of Justice, a
division of the United Nations. Medellin and four others were convicted
of capital murder and sent to Texas' death row. A juvenile court
sentenced Medellin's younger brother, who was 14 at the time, to 40
years in prison. But the Bush administration intervention came after the
U.N.'s International Court of Justice found Medellin was not informed of
his right to contact the Mexican Consulate for legal assistance. That,
according to the Hague, was a violation of a 1963 treaty known as the
Vienna Convention. WND requests for comment on the situation to the
campaigns of three leaders for the GOP nomination for president, Rudy
Giuliani, Mitt Romney and John McCain, as well as several other
"second-tier" candidates, did not generate a response. But Bull said the
potential results are frightening. "This is going to be a watershed
case," he said, "which could bring the U.S. criminal justice system into
a brave new world, subordinated to United Nations regulations and
issuances." He noted the 50 convictions of illegal immigrants that could
be overturned by the ruling, and said many of them would simply go free
despite the assaults and homicides that may have been committed. "Most
of these individuals will never be retried – and that's another level of
concern – because the witnesses aren't available," he said. And even
worse yet, he noted, is the precedent it would set for "activist
presidents." If the case is decided the wrong way, he said, a future
president simply could impose such requirements on the United States
simply by signing a treaty composed by the United Nations. "That should
scare the pants off Americans," he said. "What this would do if decided
wrongly would be to transfer American sovereignty to instruments of the
United Nations, essentially putting it under the 3rd World governments
who form a majority of the governments at the United Nations," he said.
"Our worst nightmare as Americans who love our country will happen," he
said. He said he expects the outcome of the case ultimately will turn on
the vote of Justice Anthony Kennedy, because the liberal and
conservative blocs on the court largely have coalesced in previous
decisions. more...
Ex-Mexican prez: 'Amero' on the way
WorldNet Daily
(October 9, 2007) -
Former Mexican President
Vicente Fox confirmed the existence of a plan conceived with President
Bush to create a new regional currency in the Americas, in an interview
last night on CNN's "Larry King Live." It possibly was the first time a
leader of Mexico, Canada or the U.S. openly confirmed a plan for a
regional currency. Fox explained the current regional trade agreement
that encompasses the Western Hemisphere is intended to evolve into other
previously hidden aspects of integration.
According to a transcript published by CNN,
King, near the end of the broadcast, asked Fox a question e-mailed from
a listener, a Ms. Gonzalez from Elizabeth, N.J.: "Mr. Fox, I would like
to know how you feel about the possibility of having a Latin America
united with one currency?" Fox answered in the affirmative, indicating
it was a long-term plan. He admitted he and President Bush had agreed to
pursue the Free Trade Agreement of the Americas – a free-trade zone
extending throughout the Western Hemisphere, suggesting part of the plan
was to institute eventually a regional currency. "Long term, very long
term," he said. "What we proposed together, President Bush and myself,
it's ALCA, which is a trade union for all the Americas." ALCA is the acronym for the Area
de Libre Comercio de las Américas, the name of the FTAA in Spanish.
King, evidently startled by Fox's revelation of the currency, asked
pointedly, "It's going to be like the euro dollar (sic), you mean?"
"Well, that would be long, long term," Fox repeated. Fox noted the FTAA
plan had been thwarted by Hugo Chavez, the radical socialist president
of Venezuela. "Everything was running fluently until Hugo Chavez came,"
Fox commented. "He decided to combat the idea and destroy the idea." Fox
explained that he and Bush intended to proceed incrementally,
establishing FTAA as an economic agreement first and waiting to create
an amero-type currency later – a plan he also suggested was in place for
NAFTA itself. "I think the process to go, first step is trading
agreement," Fox said. "And then further on, a new vision, like we are
trying to do with NAFTA." Fox's reply to the CNN viewer was captured in
a clip posted on
YouTube.com.
CNN posted video of the interview but did not include the segment
with questions from viewers.

Need of the Hour Fulfilled
Prophecy (September 27, 2007) -
You know the old saying, "The devil is in the details"? It
couldn't be more true of the United Nations gathering taking place right
now. For two weeks each year, world leaders swoop on the U.N.
headquarters in New York, where they're given a platform to address
their concerns. Media has aired sound bytes from their speeches --
mostly juicy ones about Iran's president -- yet much of the real news is
happening on the sidelines, out of the spotlight. Yesterday, for
example, the Alliance of Civilizations Group of Friends held its second
ministerial meeting, attended by U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and
U.N. General Assembly President Srgjan Kerim. The presence of the U.N's
top two leaders shows that this meeting was not viewed by them as
peripheral. Quite the contrary, in
his remarks to the Group of
Friends, Ban called the AoC's task of healing the divide between Muslim
and Western societies "the need of the hour." Ban went on to say that
the AoC "can help reinforce the work of the United Nations system." For
those who don't know what the AoC is -- let's just say it's "the U.N.
meets religion." The U.N. realized it can't achieve world peace without
getting religious people onboard -- those who are the source of so much
conflict. So, in 2005, it launched this initiative -- co-sponsored by
the prime ministers of Spain and Turkey -- which "hopes to contribute to
a coalescing global movement" against religious extremism, according to
its
Web site. Unfortunately for
Christians, it labels as "extremists" all those who claim sole ownership
to the truth -- not just terrorists. (Learn
how it may play into the
end-times false religious system in league with the Antichrist.) During
his speech yesterday, Sampaio enlisted the help of the Group of Friends
-- made up of representatives from governments and multilateral
organizations -- in fulfilling his vision for the AoC, as outlined in
the "Implementation
Plan 2007-2009." But, first,
Sampaio pointed out how many nations have joined the Group of Friends
since late April, from about 40 to over 70. See the list
here. This means the AoC now
has weight to throw around. Or, in Sampaio's words, "our ever-enlargening
Group of Friends has now reached the critical mass of participation."
Read his speech
here. He said it's time to
turn the AoC's momentum into concrete action in the form of commitments
from governments. He urged the Group of Friends to go back to their
countries and seek suggestions for projects and policies that can be
implemented nationally, regionally and locally -- targeting the AoC's
four areas of focus: education, youth, migration and media. According to
the Implementation Plan, such projects should include programs to train
journalists, major-motion films, AoC youth groups, advertisements at
cultural and sporting events, and new curriculum on religion for
schoolchildren. As Sampaio said yesterday, the AoC is much more than
conferences and lectures: It "needs to be integrated in the domestic
agendas of the countries, in the international agenda and indeed in all
aspects of the work of the United Nations." In other words, the AoC is
planning some big stuff. If the Implementation Plan is, indeed,
implemented, then schools around the world may soon be required to use
AoC-approved curriculum. Yes, even religious schools (don't believe me,
read the Implementation Plan). Do you want your kids being taught that
all religions are equally valid -- that Jesus was wrong and he isn't the
only way? Of course, this excludes, for now, the United States, which
hasn't yet joined the Group of Friends. But, oh, the difference one
election can make! The participating government's suggestions will be
presented at the AoC's first annual forum, Jan. 15-16, in Madrid Spain.
Sampaio urged them to view this event as a golden opportunity for the
AoC to go public. You think Hollywood's got a liberal agenda, wait until
film directors catch the AoC vision. And don't forget the very real
possibility of Super Bowls sponsored by the Alliance of Civilizations. The
good thing is then the media will have to report on it.
France Steps Up European Milspace Push Aviation Week (September 24, 2007) - Europe is signaling a growing willingness to develop new military space capabilities and more closely integrate them. But moving toward a unified milspace will require high-level political support that remains elusive, government and industry executives say. French officials have been rallying Europe to put more joint effort into milspace. And while more nations are jumping on the bandwagon, cooperation has been largely ad hoc and with little concern for broader integration. “We now need to go further,” argues Rear Adm. Phillipe Arnauld, the top French space officer, who noted that the assumption of the European Union presidency by France in July 2008 could provide a key impetus to forge an integrated European milspace program at last. But a clear consensus doesn’t exist, and funding in France, which would have to underpin any major project, has been decreasing. One of the most promising signals of progress is that the European Space Agency is ready to participate in military-related endeavors, which officials signaled at a conference here last week organized by the French Aeronautics and Astronautics Assn. ESA representatives said a dual-use space situational awareness system will be proposed soon (see p. 34). Space awareness could provide a test case for Europe to make breakthroughs on information sharing, believes Patrick Chatard-Moulin, a staff official for the EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy. The mission has gained increased attention in Europe after China’s anti-satellite test this year. A senior ESA official says that the consequences are evident daily; half the near-misses of spacecraft by debris in a recent week were linked to parts left over from the ASAT test. more...| EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | "As new powers emerge and new issues call for our engagement, Europe will have to apply itself to the task of promoting the emergence of a new international order. An international order which is based on clear rules and strong institutions."
Yes, you read that right. Solana's
calling for the European Union to spearhead a new international
order, based on foreign policy he's crafted. It's not the first time
he's admitted to having a global agenda, but it's one of his most
direct statements on it. What intrigues me is Solana's repeated
references in the article to the need for international rules and
laws to make "global governance" a reality. He says:
"Therefore, one key task for Europe for the next 50 years is to protect and develop a system of strong institutions able to tackle the problems of a new age; and to build a rules-based international order with the rules that will help us navigate the choppy waters ahead."
Speaking again of law, Solana says:
"Above all, we need to re-learn that the biggest shift in history came when we extended the rule of law. First within states and now, gradually, also among them. This gradual extension of the international rule of law has provided enormous benefits: taming the passion of the states but also providing a legal framework to guide many aspects of human inter-actions at a global level."
The legal
framework for a global order would include stepping up both the
World Trade Organization's dispute settlement system and the
International Criminal Court, according to Solana. Solana's focus on
law intrigues me because, in the book of Daniel, we learn that the
Antichrist "will intend to make alterations in times and in law" (Daniel
7:25). When I recently asked one of
my former theology professors -- who is also a lawyer and friend
whom I respect -- what he thought is the meaning of this passage, he
said something to the effect of, "Well, sure. Law is the first thing
that has to be changed to bring about major change to a society."
So, Solana realizes that a new international order needs new laws to
govern it or, in his words, new laws to "organize our globalised
world." Could this be the meaning of that obscure Daniel passage?
Solana also stresses the necessity of the EU Member States' common
foreign policy. He says:
"It means we can act together to address a range of different issues that concern us. Our unity, our influence and our action benefits us, of course. But it also serves many others. And, actually, it is often easier for us to act together than alone. Solidarity and shared political objectives are good force generators, and our collective weight counts."
This interests
me because the book of Revelation tells us that 10 kings will share
a "common purpose" with the Antichrist and help him execute it (Revelation
17:17). Similarly, Solana is asking
for the help of the EU Member States -- which include the 10-nation
Western European Union military alliance -- to extend his foreign
policy globally. A new international order will require other
things, too -- more EU structure, staff and "sharpened crisis
management performance" (a.k.a., police and military forces),
according to Solana. He points out that the EU already has
"sophisticated" crisis management forces that, in the past year,
have conducted 10 operations across three continents, including
military, police and rule-of-law missions. One of these missions
provides the only open border crossing point in Gaza. And the EU is
about to send out its largest force ever -- to Kosovo to enforce
peace and the rule of law there. Of the EU's crisis management
operations, Solana says:
"The global reach and scope of these different operations is striking. ... And their impact is significant. From Aceh to Rafah, and from Kinshasa to Sarajevo, the EU is providing the 'key enablers' for peace and stability."
A new international order will also
require the representation of more countries in international
governing bodies, like an enlarged G-8 and UN Security Council, as
well as stronger regional organizations, like the African Union and
the ASEAN, according to Solana. And a new international order will
require more "bargaining," he says. Concessions must be made when it
comes to the environment and climate change and -- this is very
interesting -- when it comes to "forms of dialogues between
cultures." This sounds like Alliance of Civilizations language to
me. If so, then it seems Solana may be referring to concessions
being made between religions, which -- according to the Alliance of
Civilizations -- would include giving up exclusivistic claims like
"There is only one path to God." This is a bargain Jesus' followers
can't buy. Solana ends his article with a quote he's used before --
borrowed from Jean Jacques Rousseau in his The Social Contract --
which Solana applies to his own vision of a "global social
contract." The quote goes:
"The strongest is never strong enough to be always the master, unless he transforms strength into right and obedience into duty."
In other words,
a global government will only work when citizens dutifully obey
leaders, according to Solana. And they'll willingly want to obey
leaders who make right decisions. Yet, students of end-times
prophecy know that the final world government will be
unrighteousness and demand obedience. It's amazing Solana has such a
powerful position from which he can construct a new international
order. Yet, most people still don't know who this guy is. (If you
don't know about him and his powerful office, learn more
here.)

WND banned from secret meeting on selling U.S. assets
World Net
Daily (September 19, 2007) -
EuroMoney PLC, the UK-based
company that arranges dozens of financial conferences around the world
each year, has refused to allow WND staff reporter Jerome Corsi to
attend next week's "North American PPP (Public-Private Partnership) &
Infrastructure Finance Conference" in New York, even though WND offered
to pay the $1,999 conference fee required to attend. "When government
officials want to go behind closed doors with investment bankers and
lawyers to discuss selling our public infrastructure to foreign
investment leaders, investigative reporters need to be there to tell the
public what is really going on," Corsi said. "Why is it that all these
PPP and
SPP
(Security and Prosperity Partnership) meetings are behind closed
doors," Corsi asked, "and government officials and their supporters
think that's normal? But when investigative reporters want to attend and
report on what is being said, we are the ones who get accused of being
the conspiracy theorists?"
"By refusing to allow WND to attend as a paying
customer," Corsi argued, "EuroMoney is telling the American public that
they intend to conduct a secret meeting designed to teach government
officials how to sell out U.S. public infrastructure to foreign
investment concerns. "I'm sure we will all be told that EuroMoney
seminars and PPP structures are really for our 'security and
prosperity,' just as President Bush asserts for the SPP itself," Corsi
continued. "Evidently we are just supposed to close our eyes and trust
government officials, investment bankers and international lawyers,
putting aside national security concerns and other economic issues which
we believe may be of concern to our readers." According to the
conference brochure, the purpose of the EuroMoney seminar is to teach
state and local government officials in the U.S. how to lease a wide
range of public assets to international and foreign private investment
groups. "Your online news service is known for its political rather than
business content," EuroMoney's Joanna Johnson explained yesterday to WND
in an e-mail, while refusing to allow Corsi permission to attend the
conference. "We don't feel it's appropriate for a business conference."
In an Aug. 29 e-mail, Johnson told WND the seminar was "only open to
those who are internal to EuroMoney or those with whom we have a media
partnership. In this instance I am unable to extend a press pass to your
organization." WND then offered to pay the full registration fee for
Corsi, the author of
"The Late, Great USA" which uses government documents to
outline plans for a continental merger, to
attend. In response, Johnson sent a second Aug. 29 e-mail asking WND for
payment details and confirming Corsi could attend, provided WND paid the
full registration fee as offered. Yesterday's e-mail shutting the door
to Corsi came after WND pressed EuroMoney to send an invoice. "So,
EuroMoney made a political decision to keep me out of their private
meeting," Corsi commented, "but WND is the one EuroMoney objects to as
being too political. Seems to me like a case of guilty conscience where
EuroMoney is accusing WND of a fault EuroMoney knows itself to be
committing." Public-private partnerships, or PPPs, were authorized by
Executive Order No. 12803 President George H.W. Bush signed April
30, 1992, clearing federal barriers for cities and states to lease
public works infrastructures to private investors.
Euro Could Replace U.S. Dollar As Favored Reserve Currency
Associated
Press (September 17, 2007) - Former
U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan said it is possible that
the euro could replace the U.S. dollar as the reserve currency of
choice. According to an advance copy of an interview to be published in
Thursday's edition of the German magazine Stern, Greenspan said that the
dollar is still slightly ahead in its use as a reserve currency, but
added that "it doesn't have all that much of an advantage" anymore. The
euro has been soaring against the U.S. currency in recent weeks, hitting
all-time high of $1.3927 last week as the dollar has fallen on turbulent
market conditions stemming from the ongoing U.S. subprime crisis. The
Fed meets this week and is expected to lower its benchmark interest rate
from the current 5.25 percent. Greenspan said that at the end of 2006,
some 25 percent of all currency reserves held by central banks were held
in euros, compared to 66 percent for the U.S. dollar. In terms of being
used as a payment for cross-border transactions, the euro is trailing
the dollar only slightly with 39 percent to 43 percent. Greenspan said
the European Central Bank has become "a serious factor in the global
economy." He said the increased usage of the euro as a reserve currency
has led to a lowering of interest rates in the euro zone, which has
"without any doubt contributed to the current economic growth." Very, very dangerous -- Excuse for EU to unite and come after USA? Constance Cumbey (September 13, 2007) - USA to begin crafting Iran Bombing Plan?

How television controls and programs minds
L. Wolfe (September
10, 2007) - Read this powerful
indictment of uncontrolled TV viewing written in the early 1990s and
then take stock of how much the Boob Tube is on in your own home.
Its message is even more important today with TVs blaring in
airports, bars, even offices. It is time to try Mr. Wolfe's therapy:
"Do you want to stay stupid and let your country go to hell in a
basket? Why don't you just walk over to the set and turn it off.
That's right, completely off. Go on, you can do it. Now isn't that
better? Don't you feel a little better already? You've just taken
the first step in deprogramming yourself. It wasn't that hard, was
it? Until we speak again, try to keep it off. Now that will be a bit
harder." -Jim MarrsTurn Off Your
Television: The subconscious is powerful. It is aware of every
particle and detail around you. But it doesn't know the difference
between fact or fiction and acts on all information passing through
the conscious mind as fact, and responds to it. So what do you think
happens when you watch silly, moron, goofy commercials and
television programs? They are training your thought processes. -Hey
buddy, I'm talking to you. Yes, you, the guy sitting in front of the
television. Turn down the sound a bit, so that you can hear what I
am saying. Now, try to concentrate on what I am going to say. I want
to talk to you about your favorite pastime. No, it's not baseball or
football, although it does have something to do with your interest
in spectator sports. I'm talking about what you were just doing:
watching television. Do you have any idea about how much time you
spend in front of the television set? According to the latest
studies, the average American now spends between five and six hours
a day watching television. Let's put that in perspective: that is
more time than you spend doing anything else but sleeping or
working, if you are lucky enough to still have a job. That's more
time than you spend eating, more time than you spend with your wife
alone, more time than with the kids. It's even worse with your
children. According to these same studies, young children below
school age watch more than eight hours each day. School age children
watch a little under eight hours a day. In 1980, the average
20-year-old had watched the equivalent of 14 months of television in
his or her brief lifetime. That's 14 months, 24 hours a day. More
recent figures show that the numbers have climbed: the 20-year-old
has spent closer to two full years of his or her life in front of
the television set. At the same time, the researchers have noted a
disturbing phenomena. It seems that we Americans are getting
progressively more stupid. They note a decline in reading and
comprehension levels in all age groups tested. Americans read less
and understand what they read less than they did 10 years ago, less
than they have at any time since research began to study such
things. As for writing skills, Americans are, in general, unable to
write more than a few simple sentences. We are among the least
literate people on this planet, and we're getting worse. It's the
change--the constant trendline downward--that interests these
researchers. More than one study has correlated this increasing
stupidity of our population to the amount of television they watch.
Interestingly, the studies found that it doesn't matter what people
watch, whether it's ``The Simpsons'' or ``McNeil/Lehrer,'' or
``Murphy Brown'' or ``Nightline':' the more television you watch,
the less literate, the more stupid you are. The growth in television
watching had surprised some of the researchers. Back a decade ago,
they were predicting that television watching would level off and
might actually decline. It had reached an absolute saturation point.
They were right for so-called network television; figures show a
steady dropoff of viewership. But that drop is more than made up for
by the growth of cable television, with its smorgasbord of channels,
one for almost every perversion. Especially in urban and suburban
areas, Americans are hard-wired to more than 100 different channels
that provide them with all news, like CNN, all movies, all comedy,
all sports, all weather, all financial news and a liberal dose of
straight pornography. The researchers had also failed to predict the
market penetration of first beta and then VHS video recorders; they
made it possible to watch one thing and record another for later
viewing. They also offered access to movies not available on
networks or even cable channels as well as home videos, recorded on
your own little camcorder. The proliferation of home video equipment
has involved families in video-related activities which are not even
considered in the cumulative totals for time Americans spend
watching television. You might not actually realize how much you are
watching television. But think for a moment. When you come home, you
turn the television on, if it isn't on already. You read the paper
with it on, half glancing at what is on the screen, catching a bit
of the news, or the plot of a show. You eat with it on, maybe in the
background, listening for a score or something that happens to a
character in a show you follow. When something you are interested
in, a show or basketball game, is on, the set becomes the center of
attention. So your attention to what is on may vary in intensity,
but there is almost no point when you are home, and inside, and have
the set completely off. Isn't that right? The studies did not break
down the periods of time people watched television, according to the
intensity of their viewing. But the point is still made: you
compulsively turn the television on and spend a good portion of your
waking hours glued to the tube. And the studies also showed that
many people can't sleep without the television turned on!
Brainwashing Now, I'm sure you have heard that watching too much
television is bad for your health. They put stories like that on the
evening news. Bad for your eyes to stare at the screen, they say.
Especially bad if you sit too close. Well, I want to make another
point. We've already shown that you are addicted to the tube,
watching it between six and eight hour a day. But it is an addiction
that brainwashes you. There are two kinds of brainwashing. The one
that's called "hard" brainwashing is the type you're most familiar
with. You've got a pretty good image of it from some of those old
Korean war movies. They take some guy, an American patriot, drag him
into a room, torture him, pump him full of drugs, and after a
struggle, get him to renounce his country and his beliefs. He
usually undergoes a personality change, signified by an ever-present
smile and blank stare. This brainwashing is called hard because its
methods are overt. The controlled environment is obvious to the
victim; so is the terror. The victim is overwhelmed by a seemingly
omnipotent external force, and a feeling of intense isolation is
induced. The victim's moral strength is sapped, and slowly he
embraces his torturers. It is man's moral strength that informs and
orders his power of reason; without it, the mind becomes little more
than a recording machine waiting for imprints. No one is saying that
you have been a victim of hard brainwashing. But you have been
brainwashed, just as effectively as those people in the movies. The
blank stare? Did you ever look at what you look like while watching
television? If the angle is right, you might catch your own
reflection in the screen. Jaw slightly open, lips relaxed into a
smile. The blank stare of a television zombie. This is "soft"
brainwashing, even more effective because its victims go about their
lives unaware of what is being done to them. Television, with its
reach into nearly every American home, creates the basis for the
mass brainwashing of citizens, like you. Who's Doing It? read
more... While I can't verify some of the specific historic claims made, this is something that we as Christians should be aware of and guarding our minds against. The mind is very easily influenced, especially when dealing with spiritual wickedness in high places. If thought is the voice of the spirit realm, then the spirit realm can affect us through thoughts and words. I know I've "zoned out" on TV many-a-time. Knowing this tool is there, how much will the subtle serpent take advantage of it and try to control it? Watch how rock n' roll has been and is being used today. They Sold Their Souls For Rock N' Roll The Mahdi is Coming Babylon the Great is Falling (September 6, 2007) - Greetings my friends, Below you can see the official announcement from Iran's state-run news network pleading with the Islamic Mahdi or Messiah to come and establish peace and justice for all nations. After reading that you can read the first few paragraphs of the article "The Fundamentalist" which was posted on our web site February 1, 2007. Most Americans and Europeans are dangerously unaware that Iran's government and people are so deeply entrenched in these Islamic prophecies, which seem to parallel those of the prophet Daniel and the visions of John in the Revelation. In their version, as you can plainly read, they win as the Mahdi establishes..."a global government of justice"...remarkably with the help of his side-kick lieutenant, Jesus Christ. In my article posted below I asked some questions. I hope you take the time to read them anew and send me your comments, even criticisms. Please forward this email to your family and friends who might be interested. By the way, I have posted some very interesting replies I have received in the "Your Comments" (September) section of our web site, many of them dealing with an appeal I made to Hal Lindsey, which is also posted on the web site under "Articles". Finally, I want to thank those of you who responded to my latest article "Pacifist, Patriot, or Pilgrim" which also contains much about Islam's place in end-time events.

Will Presidential Decision Directive #25 be Declassified? Daniel New (August 2007) - What happened? On October 10, 1995, the 1/15 Battalion of the 3rd infantry Division of the U.S. Army came to attention at 0900 in Schweinfurt, Germany. All but one of the 550 soldiers were wearing a sky-blue baseball-style cap with a United Nations insignia on the front. One was wearing the olive-drab flat cap that is authorized to be worn with the Battle Dress Uniform. With this simple act of disobeying a direct order, Spc. 4 Michael New set the stage for a legal battle that has profound implications for the future of American soldiers into service of the United Nations without the constitutional permission of Congress. On 24 July, attorneys for Michael New sent a letter to the Office of Information Programs and Services, a division of the State Department, requesting a "Mandatory Declassification Review" of Presidential Decision Directive #25. Most of our readers will recognize that as the document which President Slick Willie Clinton authorized himself to ignore the Constitution, ignore Congress, ignore long-standing statutory law, and to send US troops into military settings under the authority of the United Nations, without Congressional participation in any way. We only recently learned that this agency exists. We also learned that any citizen may request a review of any classified document, and if that document is over ten years old, a mandatory review of it is triggered by the request. PDD#25 is now 13 years old. What are the implications?
In short, this review could well be the point at which
imperial presidents are brought up short on a tether known as
Constitutional Law. Regional Alliances seem to be the "wave of the
future" - but the way we have been involved in them (since 1946) just
happens to be contrary to the U.S. Constitution. Not content with the
pace of Globalism, Bill Clinton and Al Gore decided to "reinvent
government" - in what was nothing less than a coup d'etat against the
Constitution! You may have thought that the case of Michael New vs.
United States Army was over and done with. I know we did. But, you asked
to be kept informed of any developments in Michael's case, and this one,
while a simple request for information, may turn out to be huge. We'll
let you know. The coming book, to be entitled, Legions of Empire, by
William Norman Grigg and Daniel New, is coming along (slowly). Any
person wanting to get a copy of the first edition, hardback,
autographed, needs to send us $50 along with a request to reserve a copy
in their name. That first printing will consist of 500 hardback copies
and 3,000 paperbacks. The first 100 will be numbered and autographed. If
we get all 100 pre-subscribed, it will mean we can pay for most of the
raw printing costs of the entire run. That's not everything, but it's a
running start! It is incumbent upon you to study, first that you may
understand the nature of the threats coming against our country, and
second that you might educate your children and the next generation, for
the Struggle for Liberty is not an event - it's a lifestyle.

Will Lady Liberty Last Beyond 2010? News
With Views (August 31, 2007) - Free
republics are not known to have long life expectancies. At the ripe old age of
two hundred and thirty-one, America is definitely showing her age. She is long
past her prime, and some are predicting her demise. No, some are PLANNING her
demise. Thomas Jefferson and the other founders of this once-great country
believed there was a controlling cabal that was crafting America's servitude.
With the assistance of Heaven, they decided to fight those forces. Pastors
fought with fiery sermons from the pulpit; newsmen fought with the power of the
pen; statesmen fought in the halls of congress; and merchants fought with the
sacrifice of their material gain. Together, they lifted Lady Liberty to her feet
and defeated the powers of darkness. It took the global elite a long time to
recover, but they have reemerged with a vengeance. They are now on the precipice
of accomplishing what their great granddaddies failed to do: bring the
rebellious colonists under their power and control. You see, we no longer have
the will to resist servitude. Our pulpits are too busy preaching a prosperity
gospel; newsmen are in bed with the forces they once disdained; statesmen have
been replaced with opportunistic, self-serving politicians; and merchants know
no god but money. Hence, it is left to a small--and I mean very small--remnant
to sound the clarion call for freedom and independence. Unfortunately, few seem
to be listening to their cries. 2010 seems to be a banner year for these
designers of despotism. That is the target year for the implementation of the
North American Community, which will unite the United States with Canada and
Mexico. The global elite suffered a minor set-back when the U.S. Senate failed
to pass the Bush/McCain/Kennedy/Graham amnesty-for-illegal-aliens bill. But if
you think that George W. Bush is going to let that bill lie on the floor of
defeat, you don't understand these people. President Bush will do everything he
can to implement some kind of amnesty law before he leaves office. I would not
be surprised if he attempted some sort of Executive Order or Presidential
Directive in order to accomplish it. You see, it is absolutely essential to the
designers of despotism that our southern border be eliminated. Absolutely
essential. more...
Bush left Rice at home for North America summit World
Net Daily (August 30, 2007) -
Anticipating public backlash against the recent Security and
Prosperity Partnership of North America summit in Canada, Canadian
Prime Minister Stephen Harper asked President Bush to leave
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice at home. A White House official
confirmed for WND
reports circulating in the Canadian press
indicating that prior to the summit, Harper requested Bush and
Mexican President Felipe Calderon downplay the meeting. As a result
of the request, Bush agreed Rice would skip the Montebello, Quebec,
summit. Rice's absence was especially conspicuous because she had
attended the first two SPP summits, first in March 2005 at Waco,
Texas, and then in March 2006, at Cancun, Mexico. At both previous
summits, Rice was responsible for conducting press briefings on
behalf of the U.S. delegation. Gutierrez and Chertoff were not
present at the final press conference held by Bush, Harper and
Calderon. Seasoned press present at the summit also expressed
skepticism at Calderon's suggestion that he needed to return to
Mexico early because of Hurricane Dean. Even as Calderon gave his
reason for leaving early, weather reports were showing the hurricane
had diminished in force and the damage suffered in Mexico was likely
to be minimal. The Montebello summit was the shortest of the three
SPP summits held so far, lasting less than 24 hours from the time
President Bush arrived mid-day Aug. 20. Despite Harper's attempt to
downplay the meeting, it ended up fueling Canadian opposition to
SPP. Particularly damaging for Harper was the admission that
Canadian police had infiltrated protesters with undercover agents
who acted as provocateurs. The controversy began when a
video was posted on YouTube.com
showing three masked people confronted in Montebello by peaceful
protesters and accused of being police infiltrators who wanted to
start a riot to discredit the demonstration. One of the three
provocateurs clearly has a rock in his hand. Analysis of the video
showed the footwear of the masked
people bore markings on the soles that matched the footwear worn by
the heavily riot-geared Sűreté du Québec police at the scene. On
Thursday last week, the Sűreté du Québec was forced to admit the
three provocateurs in the YouTube.com video were police officers who
disguised themselves as protestors at the SPP summit in Montebello.
A
video on YouTube.com
shows, in French, the press conference in which the Sűreté du Québec
made the admission, ending a three-days of denials by the Harper
government . In Canada, the Montebello meeting is now being called
the "Jellybean" summit in reference to Harper's comment at the final
press conference that the closed meetings had discussed
standardizing jellybean regulation in Canada and the United States.

What can be more "basic" than BASIC? Then one would have those words stand for equally innocuous words such as, for example, "British American Security Information Council."

U.S. under U.N. law in health emergency World
Net Daily (August 28, 2007) -
The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America summit in
Canada released a plan that establishes U.N. law along with
regulations by the
World Trade Organization
and
World
Health Organization as
supreme over U.S. law during a pandemic and sets the stage for
militarizing the management of continental health emergencies. The "North
American Plan for Avian & Pandemic Influenza"
was finalized at the SPP summit last week in Montebello, Quebec. At
the same time, the U.S. Northern Command, or NORTHCOM, has
created a webpage
dedicated to avian flu and has been
running exercises in preparation for the possible use of U.S.
military forces in a continental domestic emergency
involving avian flu or pandemic influenza. With virtually no media
attention, in 2005 President Bush shifted U.S. policy on avian flu
and pandemic influenza, placing the country under international
guidelines not specifically determined by domestic agencies. The
policy shift was formalized Sept. 14, 2005, when Bush announced a
new
International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic Influenza
to a High-Level Plenary Meeting of the U.N. General Assembly, in New
York. The new International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic
Influenza was designed to supersede an earlier November 2005
Homeland Security report that called for a
U.S. national strategy that would be coordinated by the Departments
of Homeland Security, Health and Agriculture. The 2005 plan,
operative until Bush announced the International Partnership on
Avian and Pandemic Influenza, directed the State Department to work
with the WHO and U.N., but it does not mention that international
health controls are to be considered controlling over relevant U.S.
statutes or authorities. Under the International Partnership on
Avian and Pandemic Influenza, Bush agreed the U.S. would work
through the U.N. system influenza coordinator to develop a
continental emergency response plan operating through authorities
under the WTO,
North American Free Trade Agreement and
the
U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization.
WND could find no evidence the Bush administration presented the
Influenza Partnership plan to Congress for oversight or approval.
The SPP plan for avian and pandemic influenza announced at the
Canadian summit last week embraces the international control
principles Bush first announced to the U.N. in his 2005
International Partnership on Avian and Pandemic Influenza
declaration. The SPP plan gives primacy for avian and pandemic
influenza management to plans developed by the WHO, WTO, U.N. and
NAFTA directives – not decisions made by U.S. agencies. The
U.N.-WHO-WTO-NAFTA plan advanced by SPP features a prominent role
for the U.N. system influenza coordinator as a central international
director in the case of a North American avian flu or pandemic
influenza outbreak. In Sept. 2005,
Dr. David Nabarro was appointed the first U.N. system influenza
coordinator, a position which also places
him as a senior policy adviser to the U.N. director-general. Nabarro
joined the WHO in 1999 and was appointed WHO executive director of
sustainable development and health environments in July 2002. In a
Sept. 29, 2005,
press conference at the U.N., Nabarro made
clear that his job was to prepare for the H5N1 virus, known as the
avian flu. Nabarro fueled the global fear that an epidemic was
virtually inevitable. In response to a question about the 1918-1919
flu pandemic that killed approximately 40 million people worldwide,
Nabarro commented, "I am certain there will be another pandemic
sometime." Nabarro stressed at the press conference that he saw as
inevitable a worldwide pandemic influenza coming soon that would
kill millions. more...
The Militarization of the Alliance of Civilizations
Richard Peterson
(August 24, 2007)
- Over the months
that followed the cartoon crisis, I paid very close attention to the
Alliance of Civilizations’ web site. Daily search engine inquiries and
AoC web visits had become routine. July and August yielded more than
enough reading material. One such report, the
OSCE
contribution to the Alliance of Civilizations initiative,
was released in June. The OSCE originated
from the Helsinki Final Act of 1975 (also known as the Helsinki Process)
and changed its official name to the Organization for Security and
Co-operation of Europe in 1994. To this day, the
Helsinki Process
remains active working to implement a one
world government. What I found was that the OSCE had been particularly
impressed with how the EU’s High Representative Javier Solana and the
Alliance of Civilizations had turned the
cartoon crisis into opportunity. Now
they were on board and had written of their unique position to
contribute to the implementation of the AoC initiative. Although I found
aspects of the report somewhat troublesome, it wasn’t until I read the
Alliance’s July 17
Report of
the Hearing with the International Community and Civil Society
that I decided to give the OSCE a second
in-depth look. The International Hearings report contains the following:
“The Military Staff Committee, instead of being abolished, should be
revived so that meetings of military leaders at different levels could
be introduced for the international practice.” (page 26) It appeared
that the defunct Committee was about to be revived! I also read: “On the
national level, constitutional democracy does not entail the existence
of a police state or military watchdog, but implies observation of the
laws that have been worked out by the elected representatives, as well
as the adherence to the value system.” (page 26) This reminded me of a
statement in the OSCE report that I found puzzling. They said that the
OSCE is the world’s largest regional security organization, comprising
of 56 participating states and that “decisions are based on consensus
and are politically but not legally binding”. What did that mean? I
found my answer in the
Helsinki Process Papers--Building Democracy From Manila to Doha: The
Evolution of the Movement of New or Restored Democracies as follows: “Under its human
dimension objectives, the OSCE has adopted instruments, created norms
and initiated activities for the promotion of democracy and governance.
The OSCE instruments are "politically binding commitments" for the

implementable without having to wait for subsequent domestic approval or
ratification. This process allows also the OSCE to react quickly to new
needs.” (page 67) The Barcelona Process, established in 1995, set
among its goals the responsibility of straightening out the clash of
civilizations as well as combating religious fundamentalism worldwide.
The Alliance of Civilizations intends to start operations within the
framework of the Barcelona Process and then amplify the AoC initiative
globally. Next is
NATO and the AoC. NATO is also on board
with the Alliance of Civilizations and, unknown to most Americans, has
split under the
Berlin-Plus Agreement. In the
event of a crisis situation, NATO assets are transferred to the European
Union’s Political and Security Committee presently presided over by EU
High Representative Javier Solana.
Crisis
management drills have already been conducted to test the Berlin-Plus

considered by Solana to be a threat. Statewatch’s report,

Top banks tap Fed discount window Reuters (August
22, 2007) - The four largest U.S.
banks, led by Citigroup and Bank of America Corp., took the unusual
step of borrowing $2 billion directly from the Federal Reserve on
Wednesday, as the Fed tries to stabilize tempestuous financial
markets by adding money to the banking system. U.S. shares rose
after the move, but financial stocks declined slightly. Borrowing
money directly from the Fed is usually seen as a sign of weakness,
but JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America and Wachovia Corp., said they have ample access to funds and made
the move for the sake of the financial system. Citigroup, meanwhile,
said it borrowed funds for customers; but the bank has issued at
least $2.5 billion of corporate bonds this month. The Federal
Reserve on Friday cut the rate at which banks borrow directly from
the central bank by a hefty half a percentage point and signaled it
was willing to take more dramatic action to cushion the economy from
tightening credit. Timothy Geithner, president of the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York, encouraged banks in a call on Friday to
borrow from the Fed. Deutsche Bank late last week borrowed funds
from the Fed, the Financial Times reported on Monday. The Dow Jones
industrial average was up 70 points or about half of one percentage
point after the announcements, while the Standard & Poor's financial
index
turned modestly negative, trading down 0.43 percent.
Europe, Asia and U.S. inject more cash Associated
Press (August 21, 2007)
- Central banks in Europe, Asia and the U.S. injected more cash into
the markets Tuesday as commercial banks clamored for money. The
European Central Bank placed 275 billion euros ($370.6 billion) in
its normal weekly refinancing as it furthered emergency moves taken
over the last two weeks. That followed a decision by the Bank of
Japan Tuesday to lend another 800 billion yen ($7.01 billion), which
followed a trillion-yen injection ($8.71 billion) the day before.
The U.S. Federal Reserve followed with another $3.75 billion
infusion Tuesday, the latest in a series of cash transfusions that
have topped more than $100 billion since last week. U.S. Treasury
Secretary Henry Paulson insisted the nation will move safely through
credit crisis that has spread from Wall Street to Tokyo, Frankfurt
and other financial centers. The Reserve Bank of Australia lent
banks 4.57 billion Australian dollars ($3.64 billion) Tuesday. The
Bank of England, meanwhile, lent 314 million pounds ($622.3 million)
directly to an institution — the first time it has made an emergency
loan since the start of the subprime crisis and the resulting credit
crunch. The ECB said the 275 billion-euro allotment announced
Tuesday was about 46 billion euros ($61.9 billion) more than it had
estimated, in part because banks that use the euro are still seeking
extra cash. Despite that, Tuesday's cash infusion was significantly
lower than the ECB's tender last week, when it lent 310 billion
euros ($417.7 billion), and also less than the 292.5 billion euros
($393.5 billion) it lent the week before.

Bush doesn't deny plans for N. American Union
World Net Daily
(August 21, 2007) - President
Bush today sidestepped a direct question about whether he'd be
willing to categorically deny there is a plan to create the North
American Union. Instead, he ridiculed those who believe that is
taking place as conspiracy theorists. The exchange came at a news
conference held by Bush, Mexico's President Felipe Calderon, and
Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who met at a resort in
Quebec to discuss their latest work on the Security and Prosperity
Partnership. After the trio presented their prepared statement about
the SPP, several reporters who had been selected in advance were
allowed to ask questions. When it came time for a question from a
Fox News reporter, Bush was asked if he would be willing to
categorically deny that there is a plan to create a North American
Union, or that there are plans to create NAFTA Superhighways. "As
you three leaders meet here, there are a growing number of people in
each of your countries who have expressed concern about the Security
and Prosperity Partnership. This is addressed to all three of you.
Can you say today that this is not a prelude to a North American
Union, similar to a European Union? Are there plans to build some
kind of superhighway connecting all three countries? And do you
believe all of these theories about a possible erosion of national
identity stem from a lack of transparency from this partnership?"
was the question, according to a White House transcript. Bush's
answer was, "We represent three great nations. We each respect
each other's sovereignty. You know, there are some who would like to
frighten our fellow citizens into believing that relations between
us are harmful for our respective peoples. I just believe they're
wrong. I believe it's in our interest to trade; I believe it's in
our interest to dialogue; I believe it's in our interest to work out
common problems for the good of our people. And I'm amused by some
of the speculation, some of the old – you can call them political
scare tactics. If you've been in politics as long as I have, you get
used to that kind of technique where you lay out a conspiracy and
then force people to try to prove it doesn't exist. That's just the
way some people operate. I'm here representing my nation. I feel
strongly that the United States is a force for good, and I feel
strongly that by working with our neighbors we can a stronger force
for good. So I appreciate that question. I'm amused by the
difference between what actually takes place in the meetings and
what some are trying to say takes place. It's quite comical,
actually, when you realize the difference between reality and what
some people are talking on TV about." Harper joined in. There's
not going to be any NAFTA Superhighway connecting the three nations,
he said, and it's "not going to go interplanetary either," he said.
However, Jerome Corsi, a Harvard Ph.D. whose newly published book,
"The Late
Great USA," uses the government's own documentation to show the
advance of a North American Union, said ridicule is the "last resort
of someone who is losing an argument." Such tactics, Corsi said,
"underestimate the intelligence of people listening, and people
realize that the argument wasn't answered." At the news conference,
he noted, Bush failed to respond to the Fox News question with a
denial of the plans for a North American Union. And, Corsi said,
"Bush did not address the fact that Texas Gov. Rick Perrry vetoed a
two-year moratorium on the Trans-Texas Corridor project," believed
to be the starting point for an eventual continent-wide grid of
NAFTA Superhighways. "Just to ridicule the idea, when he had a
change to categorically deny it, raises doubts in peoples' minds,
especially when these meetings aren't transparent," Corsi added. The
meeting this week, which focused on economic issues, was attended by
representatives of dozens of multinational corporations anxious to
have their manufacturing and sales processes smoothed. However,
Corsi said, "not one person who objects is permitted inside the
room." more...
3rd SPP summit shrouded in secrecy
World Net Daily
(August 13, 2007)
- President Bush will
interrupt his summer vacation in Crawford, Texas, next week to
attend the third summit meeting of the
Security
and Prosperity Partnership of North America, or SPP, slated for
Aug. 20 and 21 in Montebello, Quebec, at the five-star
Fairmont Le Chateau Montebello resort. Bush will meet with
Mexico's President Felipe Calderon and Canada's Prime Minister
Stephen Harper at the event. The meeting has been hidden in a cloud
of secrecy until
WND obtained from an Access to Information Act request a previously
unreleased copy of a government report detailing agenda plans
for the third SPP summit. According to
WND reports, as many as 10,000 protesters are expected to be in
Quebec to oppose the meeting. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police,
Canada's national police force, and the Sűreté du Québec, the state
police, plan to maintain a 25-kilometer protest-free zone around the
Montebello resort where the meeting is to be held.
WND has reported that a multinational business agenda is driving
this upcoming SPP summit according to the heavily redacted document
obtained from the Canadian government. The memo clearly states at
center stage in the Montebello SPP summit will be recommendations by
the
North American Competitiveness Council, regarding promoting
North American competitiveness for multinational corporations
through "integrating" and "harmonizing" regulations between Mexico,
Canada and the U.S. The council, an executive group composed of 10
top multinational corporations from each of the three SPP countries,
was constituted under the auspices of the U.S. Department of
Commerce to provide guidance to the 20 SPP working groups of U.S.,
Mexican, and Canadian bureaucrats. WND has also reported that
President Bush will discuss at the summit a plan to send U.S.
military assistance to Mexico to assist Mexico's military and
civilian law enforcement agencies to combat Mexican narco-criminals
and drug lords.
National ID? How about a global ID?
Info World
(August
10, 2007) - A little-known
federation quietly lays the infrastructure for a universal identity
system that could eventually be implemented nationally or
internationally. The Federation for Identity and
Cross-Credentialing Systems (FiXs)
-- a little-known group of non-profits, government contractors,
commercial entities, and government agencies -- has just unveiled a
first-of-its-kind global infrastructure to support distributed,
integrated identity management and cross-credentialing across
organizations. The implementation combines several existing security
technologies along with a set of trusted models, policies, and
operating rules to insure the accurate identity of personnel
accessing physical sites or logical systems. Already in a pilot mode
at a handful of government agencies and defense contractors, the
FiXs identity management initiative does not have a hard date for
broad deployment, although the impediments do not appear to be
technical. “The cultural gap with the public in general is still too
wide,” said Dr. Mike Mestrovich, President of FiXs. “I think there
would have to be a public consensus to move us in that direction and
I don’t see that happening until at least 2009 or beyond.” Founded
in 2004 and based in Fairfax, Va., FiXs counts among its members the
Department of Defense (DoD), Wells Fargo, Lockheed Martin, EDS, and
several others. Modeled after secure electronic payment systems and
initially implemented by the DoD’s Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC),
the FiXs initiative meets the objectives set forth in the October
2006 Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-12). “Until now,
cross-bordering policies between government and industry had not
been established,” said Mary Dixon, director at the DMDC. The FiXs
implementation does not assign roles, grant or deny access, or
otherwise act as a gatekeeper. Rather, the mission of FiXs is simply
to authenticate the identity of participants within its member
organizations. Once verified by FiXs, individual site managers and
systems administrators assign or designate access controls based on
the role of the individual and the policies of a given organization.
FiXs’ capabilities allow it to cross between both public and private
sector organizations using a federated trust model. The
implementation is available worldwide in local or remote settings
via both wireless and wired environments. Access is available in
real time. An individual’s specific identity data remains within
their vetted source organization. “By its very nature, the federated
solution aids in privacy because there is no central database and
individual data can be stored in only one [vetted] place,” Dr.
Mestrovich said. Yet the distributed design and cross-organizational
model found in the FiXs implementation does offer the possibility of
a future national or international identity management system that
might cross borders and organizational boundaries. “The federated
approach can actually take the place of a mandated National ID
system,” Dr. Mestrovich stated.
The Timeline to Tyranny
Prison Planet (August

- The top ten advances towards tyranny in the United States during
the tenure of the Bush administration, from the Patriot Act to the latest
expansion of the illegal eavesdropping surveillance program.
Whether they know it or not, and I believe they (behind the NWO) do, those making policy are sending us down the path that leads to the man of sin ruling the world. Those not in the know are being bought or swallowing the pill with the cheese. It is through terrorism and the desire for peace, that freedom is being taken away for peace and safety. Those ignorant to what is happening will fall in line because they love their life and do not understand that their eternal soul is at stake. Those pushing us over the New World Order cliff are planning order out of chaos. Satan is the master of creating chaos, and where he is involved there inevitably follows a hatred for Israel, keep that in mind as you watch. Some just mask it better than Islam. I would specify radical Islam, but their holy book is declaring that the world will submit to Allah or die, so the moderate Muslims are like most Christians today, they really don't know or understand what their holy book says. The Bible describes the end result of all that is happening now. Most people are fulfilling the prophecy and they are living planning for a future on earth, when sudden destruction will come. We are not of this world, yet living in a secular society has caused a mixture and many Christians don't look much different than the world. And as Bible prophecy states, some will be caught off guard when the sudden destruction comes and they will not have the oil in their lamps. Matthew 25:1-13 That is why this watchman is sharing the warning. All this politicking is playing right into the ultimate downfall of America and the rise of the New World Order as planned. And the subtle serpent is behind it all, pulling the strings and placing the veil over the eyes of a distracted world. Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." When we don't know what the devil's up to, it's easy for him to do it. The Bible says it must happen, now we know how it manages to get by people. The serpent is subtle. Time is short and the dragon has been at his conspiracy for centuries and millennia, Bible prophecy is being fulfilled right now. The first thing Christ warned about when asked of the end is to see that we aren't deceived. Let us not slumber, but watch because our Lord is coming soon and so many have yet to understand. Those watching and understanding God's plan will be beacons of light when the earth begins to shake. For the sake of those who need to be shaken to hear, let us understand what is coming and what is now happening!
New EU treaty 'cut and pasted' from old
Telegraph.UK (August 2, 2007) - The official
English text of the new EU treaty shows that it is a "cut and paste
job" from the former European constitution, it was claimed last
night. The official English translation - published while MPs are
away on a 10-week summer break - is 277 pages long. The reference to
a constitution is out. Also cut is "symbolic" legal status for the
EU's 12-star flag, an official motto and the EU's anthem. Other
changes to substance are minor. The title of the EU's "foreign
minister" is changed to High Representative. Provisions drawn word
for word from the old constitution will give him speaking rights
from British and French seats at the UN Security Council. Unlike
Europe's current foreign policy representative, Javier Solana, the
new minister will also be vice-president of the European Commission,
weakening direct control over the post by national governments. Also
lifted almost word for word from the 2004 constitutional treaty is a
new "ratchet clause" making it far easier for the EU to scrap
national vetoes and sidestep referendums. William Hague, the
Conservative foreign affairs spokesman, said: "We can see clearly
what a cut-and-paste job this is from the old EU constitution.
Virtually everything that was in the old EU constitution is in this
treaty."
The new European century The
Guardian UK (July 31, 2007)
- The
Project for the New American Century was tested in Iraq and
floundered there. Now it's Europe's turn to make a play for world
power. The American project aspired to US global leadership and
military strength. If Europeans are to have continued influence in
the world, we have to get our aspirations right. The European
Union's methods are set by its ethos and structure. It
claims to have a good human rights record, even if the
reality lets down the most liberal of members sometimes.
Military action is generally undertaken by member states
individually. Working with its limited tools of trade and aid, the
EU has been trying to increase its influence in the world. It
recently signed
agreements with Morocco providing financial support for economic
and social cooperation. They cover human rights reforms, market
integration, and energy security. The agreements are part of a
larger plan called the
European Neighbourhood Policy. The idea is that neighbouring
non-member countries can enter into closer ties with the EU if they
share its economic and social goals. Europeans who want to live in a
prosperous continent should hope the policy works. It will ensure
North African and Central Asian oil and gas is accessible through
sympathetic countries. They would be useful allies in fighting
against crime, and in ensuring that migration can be managed to the
advantage of both Europe and the migrants. Europe's mistakes in the
past century ensured that its economy lags behind the US economy.
Today, it is Asia which could further eclipse Europe. Both China and
India are likely to reach Europe economically within a lifetime. We
can't stop the development of China and India. But we can keep
Europe influential in the new world order. Being surrounded by a
ring of economically successful allies will help keep Europeans rich
and powerful. The advantages of close economic links with our
neighbours are so strong that the EU might be tempted to drop its
demands for high standards of human rights in its partners. Let's
face it, the west has been getting its oil from repressive regimes
for decades without domestic collapse. There are signs that Europe
is willing to lower its standards. For example, the EU has entered
into partnership agreements with Tunisia. We have
given the North African state a billion euros in aid since 2002,
so you might expect growing attention to human rights from it.
Sadly, no; here's a taste of what Human Rights Watch
says: "The government uses the threat of terrorism and
religious extremism as a pretext to crack down on peaceful dissent.
There are continuous and credible reports of torture and
ill-treatment being used to obtain statements from suspects in
custody. Sentenced prisoners also face deliberate ill-treatment." I
wouldn't want to live in one of the EU's more repressive partners if
we give up on human rights in them. Maybe if the partners were on
the other side of the world, I would become callous to the suffering
of their citizens. The trouble is, they are our neighbours. Human
rights abuses in them have effects which are usually damaging to our
long-term economic interests. more...
EU Treaty published - but only in French
Telegraph.UK
(July 27, 2007) - MPs have
accused Brussels and Government ministers of preventing proper
scrutiny of the new European Union treaty by failing to provide the
House of Commons with an English version of the 277-page text.
William Hague accuses the Government of dodging debate "Corners are
being cut" and parliaments across Europe snubbed in the rush to seal
a treaty deal by (October!!), officials have admitted to The Daily
Telegraph. A treaty text was tabled in Brussels on Monday in one
language, French. The Government, and EU officials organising
negotiations, cannot produce an official English translation of the
145 pages of draft articles, 69 of protocols and 63 pages of
declarations until next month, well after the Commons has finished
for the summer. MPs will return to duty 10 days before Gordon Brown
signs a final treaty agreement in Lisbon on October 18-19. Rejecting
referendum calls, the Prime Minister will then press for
(parliamentary ratification!!) on a treaty that will have been
negotiated over the summer without proper scrutiny by MPs. William
Hague, the Conservative foreign affairs spokesman, has accused the
Government of dodging democratic debate. "Now that the rejected EU
constitution is back, with a different label, it is clear that it is
being rushed through with the minimum of scrutiny," he said. "Gordon
Brown wants the British people to know as little as possible about
the major transfer of their own powers to Brussels this treaty will
bring about, but the tactic could not be more transparent. It simply
shows up the undemocratic nature of the exercise." EU leaders are
racing against the clock to rush through a new "reform treaty" to
replace the constitution rejected by French and Dutch voters in
2005. Officials close to the organisation of negotiations have
admitted that documents in all the EU's 23 languages are not
expected until December, when a formal ratification text will be
signed by Europe's leaders. "We believe it is a problem but we have
a mandate that is tight. There is urgency. Doing all this within six
months is unprecedented and there are going to be real limitations
to the process," said an official. Normal EU rules stipulating that
documents must at least be in German, French and English have been
suspended. The Conservative MP Roger Gale has asked for, and been
refused, a copy of the new treaty in English. "The Government
obviously does not want MPs, journalists or the public to have
access to the document until it is a done deal - presumably for fear
of the growing demand for the people to have the right to vote on
the issue," he said. The E.U. Deal News With Views: Constance Cumbey (July 25, 2007) - On a random internet search, looking frankly for something else I never found, I just discovered an off the road lovely little blogspot maintained by one of Javier Solana’s most obvious London based thinktanks: The Centre for European Reform. A few years ago, Herb Peters and I laughed on live radio air at a $10,000 award two of its foremost analysts, Charles Grant and Steve Everts received for an essay competition for ideas on how to better manage “Transatlantic Relations” in its alleged “growing divide.” Their thoughts:
We joked on the air over WMUZ radio in Detroit on my then regular program, “Law Talk,” “Now why didn’t we think of that? We could have had $10,000 to divide by writing the obviously desired lines of other power elites: “Give Javier Solana more power, more money, and more staff.” Grant/Everts’ exact essay wording was “Streamline decision-making and give Javier Solana more resources.” Quoting from their prize winning essay:
Co-author Steven Everts thereafter not surprisingly left the CER to take a position on Javier Solana’s cabinet. Charles Grant stayed behind, also to the benefit of Javier Solana. The CER ideas were instrumental in shaping notions that would be incorporated in shaping Javier Solana’s to be all powerful Foreign Minister post in the failed European Constitutional drive. Now his compatriot Charles Grant and company are working hard to shame Great Britain into accepting the deals made on the new “Treaty” cum constitution in drag. This is what Grant says are the main features of “the Treaty”:
When there was
obviously popular rejection by the peoples of the affected countries
themselves to this acknowledged “democratic deficit” power grab, new
scheming began. That culminated in the recent treaty meetings and
there seems to be an obvious “the people be damned” approach to it.
British elements are trying frantically to force a referendum.
Eurocrats and global elitists are frantically trying to stop one
from happening. Obviously, what is being framed here is much larger
than Europe. Why else would a USA based group hand $10,000 for a
simply worded essay that suggests handing one man, Javier Solana,
such unilateral power and control? In my 26 years of researching the
New Age Movement and 12 years of researching Dr. Javier Solana and
his roles in Middle East processes, NATO, the European Union, and
now “global governance,” I have learned that those advocating all of
the above play a lovely little game of “now you see us, now you
don’t.” Charles Grant, the obvious Javier Solana partisan who stayed
behind at the CER think tank while his writing partner, Steve Everts
went on to be a part of Dr. Solana’s EU cabinet emphatically insists
that Britain
does not need a referendum.

'Declaration of North American Integration' unearthed World Net
Daily (July
25, 2007) - The endorsement by a major city
mayor of a document described as "The Declaration of North American
Integration" represents a long-term effort by local governments to
bypass state and federal governments and work directly with Mexico
and Canada to create agreements that integrate the continent below
the radar screen, charges an activist.
Adam Rott, founder of watchdog blog
Oklahoma Corridor Watch, brought to light the document signed by
Mayor
Mick Cornett. The document was presented at the May 2004 summit
meeting of the North American International Trade Corridor
Partnership, or NAITCP. According to an
Internet-archived summary report of the meeting, held in Kansas
City, Mo., the document was signed by 90 people. Rott told WND he
created Oklahoma Corridor Watch because, "I saw the efforts in Texas
by Internet blogs such as
Texas Corridor Watch and
Texas Toll Party to get the word out in Texas about the
Trans-Texas Corridor. I wanted to warn Oklahoma about plans to
extend the Trans-Texas Corridor along Interstate 35 north into our
state." Rott said it should be clear to everyone "that the
international business interests and government officials working
with them do not intend to stop the four-football-fields wide TTC-35
at the Texas border with Oklahoma." "Oklahoma has been at work for
almost 15 years to get I-35 designated as a NAFTA superhighway,"
Rott said. "I want to wake Oklahomans up to the reality that
Oklahoma is on the front lines of the battle being waged by
investment bankers, foreign investment consortia and politicians who
stand to benefit to expand the TTC-35 north into Oklahoma." WND
contacted Cornett's office for comment, but the mayor did not
respond. "What is so diabolical about Cornett's signature is that it
has largely remained hidden from view since 2004," Rott charged. "It
is disturbing to think that councilmen and councilwomen who live in
our communities are working for North American integration in the
mistaken notion that globalism will result in local economic
development." Roth is skeptical of the promise North American
integration holds for economic development in Oklahoma. "What we see
is the sovereignty of the U.S. being compromised at a local level,
and we have yet to see where globalism has benefited Oklahoma City,"
he said. "Our manufacturing base is deteriorating in Oklahoma City
as plants close and multinational corporations outsource from
Oklahoma to get cheaper workers in international markets." Oklahoma
Republican
state Sen. Randy Brogdon agrees. Brogdon told WND he believes
"the ramifications of what Oklahoma City Mayor Cornett is doing is
to destroy U.S. national sovereignty and to grab property like we
have never seen before." Brogdon was outspoken in his opposition to
North American integration.

Secret memo: One-world agenda dominates SPP summit
World Net Daily (July
24, 2007) - A
multinational business agenda is driving the upcoming summit meeting
of the Security and Prosperity Partnership
of North America, according to a
document obtained through an Access to Information Act request in
Canada. The memo shows a secondary focus of the leaders' meeting
in Montebello, Quebec, Aug. 20-21, will be to prepare for a
continental avian flu or human pandemic and establish a permanent
continental emergency management coordinating body to deal not only
with health emergencies but other unspecified emergencies as well.
As WND has reported, President Bush, Prime Minister Stephen Harper
and Mexico's President Felipe Calderon will attend the third SPP
summit. The document, obtained by Canadian private citizen Chris
Harder, is a two-page heavily redacted summary of the
ministerial meeting in Ottawa, held Feb. 23 between Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice and her counterparts, Canadian Foreign
Minister Peter MacKay and Mexican Foreign Minister Patricia
Espinosa. The purpose of the Feb. 23 meeting in Ottawa was to set
the agenda for the August summit. The
Access to Information Act-obtained memo noted the nation's
leaders intend next month to pursue the five priorities set at their
second summit meeting in Cancun in March 2005: Strengthening
Competitiveness, Avian and Pandemic Influenza, Emergency Management,
Energy Security, and Secure
Borders. Of the five issues, the memo clearly states recommendations
by the North American Competitiveness Council, or NACC, regarding
competitiveness "took centerpiece" at the Feb. 23 meeting. Almost
immediately, the memo says, governments "will need to begin
assessing the potential impact of adopting recommendations made by
the NACC and coordinating their response to the authors of the
report." The memo states "the most dynamic element on the plenary
agenda was a meeting with the NACC, the body created by the Leaders
in 2006 to give the private sector a formal role in providing advice
on how to enhance competitiveness in North America."

Selling America to Communist China Family
Security Matters (July
24, 2007) - Do you remember the uproar
that rippled throughout the
EU gains strong position in WTO talks DAWN
(July 23, 2007) - EU
trade chief Peter Mandelson said on Monday that the 27-nation bloc
had gained a “strong position” in WTO free-trade talks after new
proposals were made last week to break six-years of deadlock.
“Diplomatically Europe is in a strong position,” Mandelson told EU
foreign ministers, in remarks made available by his office to
journalists. “We are seen as the main champions of this multilateral
process.” “What's interesting, at this stage, is that the EU is one
of the least negatively talked about players, which is unusual,
given how we were being targeted 18 months or so ago,” he said. The
EU has long been criticized in WTO talks for not giving more ground
on agriculture, but WTO negotiators made proposals last week
focusing more on the need for concessions from the United States and
developing countries. The proposals tabled last week aimed at
breathing new life into the Doha Development Round of trade
liberalization negotiations, launched in the Qatari capital in 2001,
and brokering a compromise among the 150 WTO members. The members
are at odds over the extent of new reductions in barriers to trade
in agriculture, industrial goods and services amid cross-cutting
disagreements between rich and poor countries over cuts in import
tariffs and farm subsidies. Mandelson said that Europe should keep
up the pressure on developing countries to cut their tariffs on
industrial goods although he acknowledged they were unlikely to do
so unless Washington cut farm subsidies. “We need to continue to
push hard on industrial tariffs. There is no reason to assume that
the landing point will not move further in our favor,” he said. On
the key stumbling block of agriculture tariffs, Mandelson said the
proposals were “manageable” although they were too demanding on
sensitive farm products. WTO representatives are to meet this week
in negotiating groups in Geneva, Switzerland, to give their initial
reactions to the proposals. After an August recess, the talks are to
resume in early September.

analysis). In this new article here, I’ll look at the larger picture
(macro analysis) of how a single incident or individual fits into
the power elite’s larger plan. To do this, I’ll refer to Constance
Cumbey’s excellent June 17 NWV
column regarding Javier
Solana, Canada, and other elements. As I’ve mentioned before, one of
the primary power elitists was Cecil Rhodes, whose secret Society of
the Elect was “to take the government of the whole world.” Canadian
P.E. Corbett was a member of this group, and in his Post-War
Worlds (1942) described their plan to form a world government by
linking regional arrangements which would involve trade, investment,
distribution of food and raw materials, migration, etc. After World
War II, Rhodes scholars packed the Canadian external affairs office
of Lester Pearson, who probably had a great deal to do with
President Truman’s firing of U.S. General Douglas MacArthur. This is
because MacArthur had displeased Canada (and Britain) by his efforts
to win the Korean War. Thus, Canada has played an important role in
the power elite’s plans. Constance Cumbey began her article by
stating, “In March of 1995, there was a near shooting war. . .
between Spain and Canada.” She then referred to Solana’s “BIG plans”
involving “mutually advantageous trading terms over the area’s
resources leading to a Mediterranean Free Trade Zone by 2010.” To
accomplish this, the larger plan was to get rid of Yugoslavia’s
Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic, who was standing in the way of
linking the European Union’s trade corridor to the power elite’s
desired Mediterranean regional arrangement because of his conflict
with Croatia and Kosovo. In Washington Post columnist William
Raspberry’s interview of me on the subject on December 18, 1995, he
wrote: “Cuddy says he is tempted more and more to look for economic
explanations for what seems otherwise inexplicable. . . . . Cuddy
notes that the United States is now involved in negotiating a
Transatlantic Free Trade Agreement with Europe.” In early June 1995,
Secretary of State Warren Christopher announced regarding the
Transatlantic Free Trade Area: “We intend to give it the serious
study it deserves, with its considerable potential to form an
element of our overall strategy. . . . The long-term objective is
the integration of the economies of North America and Europe,
consistent with the World Trade Organization.” In Constance Cumbey’s
article, she referred to Solana chairing the “Transatlantic
Alliance,” and in my June 12, 2006 NWV column on “Global
Integration,” I spelled out
the details of the “New Transatlantic Agenda,” not only involving
education (portability of academic credits, etc.) but the Agenda
further stated that “governments too are obliged to adapt their
economic training and social welfare programs.” Constance Cumbey
concluded her article referring to the New Age influence on
Canadians Maurice Strong and former Prime Minister Paul Martin. The
power elite’s larger plan regarding spirituality involves a
synthesis of all religions into “A Common Faith” (the title of
humanist John Dewey’s 1934 book). And prominent Canadians have
played a significant part in the plan. Dorothy MacLean, formerly
with British Intelligence, in the 1990s was president of the New Age
Canadian Lorian Association. The first head of the World Health
Organization (WHO) was Canadian psychiatrist Brock Chisholm (1959
Humanist of the Year), who wrote in Psychiatry (February 1946): “We
have swallowed all manner of poisonous certainties fed us by our
parents, our Sunday and lay school teachers, our politicians, our
priests. . . . the reinterpretation and eventual eradication of the
concept of right and wrong which has been the basis of child
training, the substitution of intelligent and rational thinking for
faith in the certainties of old people, these are the belated
objectives. . . for charting the changes in human behavior.” Just 3
months later, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation on May 5, 1946
aired a speech by Dr. Ewen Cameron, who would in 1953 become
president of the American Psychiatric Association and later receive
CIA funds to conduct horrible LSD and control experiments on people.
In the speech titled “The Building of the Coming World Order,” he
declared: “. . . What we call morals, are simply the customs,
prohibitions and rules which a society maintains at any given time.
. . . What we have once set up, we can set up again, and better. . .
. The United Nations Organization deserves the support of all who
are concerned with the building of a New World Order. . . . There
can be only one education anywhere on earth and that is education
for world citizenship.” Maurice Strong was former U.N.
Secretary-General Kofi Annan’s right-hand man. And long-time U.N.
Assistant Secretary-General Robert Muller has based the curriculum
for his many Robert Muller schools around the world on the
underlying teachings of Luciferian Alice Bailey. Muller and former
Canadian parliament member Douglas Roche in 1995 co-authored a book
advocating a “common security agenda as the basis for a new world
order.” This was after Roche at the World Conference of Religion for
Peace in Louvain, Belgium (August 28-September 3, 1974) delivered a
report titled “We can achieve a New World Order,” thus showing the
power elite’s larger plan to use religion to bring about their New
World Order of a World Socialist Government and One World Religion.

The European Security and Defense Policy: A Challenge to the
Transatlantic Security Alliance
Heritage
Foundation by Sally McNamara (July
18, 2007)
- NOTE: The
original link
to the Heritage Foundation is no longer working.
The most text I could find was from the link in the title. The
terrorist attacks on New York and Washington in 2001, Madrid in
2004, and London in 2005 profoundly demonstrate the new security
threats facing the West. Transnational terrorism, the proliferation
of weapons of mass destruction, and unstable or failed states
present daunting challenges to the entire Euro-Atlantic community
and require a long-term sustained response. It is essential that
Europe rise to the challenge of these new threats. Finding the right
strategic and structural balance is equally imperative. A strong
Europe of independent self-determining nation-states invested in
NATO and protected by NATO will contribute far more to
transatlantic security than will a deeply integrated European Union
(EU) usurping NATO's role. The European Security and Defense Policy
(ESDP) has emerged as one of the biggest attempts to expand EU power
to date, centralizing the most important tools of nation-statehood.
The militarization of the European Union marks one of the greatest
geopolitical shifts in the transatlantic alliance since the end of
the Second World War. As a political initiative, it embodies the
worst elements of European animosity toward the United States and
would fundamentally undermine the NATO alliance and the
Anglo-American Special Relationship. A Challenge to the
Transatlantic Alliance Since its establishment in 1998, the ESDP has
been fashioned by EU elites into a military identity distinct from
and independent of NATO. It has become a tool for projecting
European power in the world and promoting the EU as a global actor.
The EU has long used institutional program-building to advance its
centralizing and integrationist policies, and the ESDP is critical
to achieving "ever closer union." The ESDP's Franco-British
Foundations. When British Prime Minister Tony Blair and French
President Jacques Chirac heralded the ESDP at St. Malo, France, in
1998, it was reasonable to assume that Blair envisioned an ESDP very
different from the one envisioned by Chirac--an ESDP that would
complement NATO, not rival it. On the other hand, the French have
long coveted a European defense identity specifically to counter
American global power. Through a supranational foray into foreign
policy areas such as military operations, the ESDP became Chirac's
latest ruse to rival America. When EU elites talk about the balance
of power, they mean that the EU should balance American
hyperpuissance.[1] As Lady Margaret Thatcher stated: France has for
many years wanted to see an alternative military power to an
American-led NATO. The European Union's plans for a separate
integrated European defence provided the French with a unique
opportunity to achieve this goal.[2] Rather than meaningfully
address shared transatlantic security challenges, the
militarization of the EU through the ESDP actually presents a number
of challenges by itself. The U.S. should not confuse its desire to
see European countries take on more security and defense
responsibilities, both in Europe and in the wider world, with the
ramifications of further European military integration--especially
in terms of America's ability to build alliances. The potential to
destabilize the successful transatlantic security alliance has never
been greater, and in that respect, the ESDP should not be viewed as
an effective strategic partnership. more...
Euro Hits New High Against U.S. Dollar Associated
Press (July 10, 2007) - The euro shot to an all-time
high against the U.S. dollar Tuesday on concerns about the American
economy that were fueled by discouraging growth forecasts from key
U.S. retailers and homebuilders. The British pound, which has been
trading around 26-year highs against the dollar, briefly touched
$2.0273 after reports showed British consumer prices were rising at a
faster pace than the target set by the Bank of England. The euro hit a
new record of $1.3738 Tuesday, its highest level against the dollar
since the 13-nation currency started trading in 1999, before
retreating to $1.3729. That was still above the euro's previous high
of $1.3682 reached on April 27 and the $1.3623 it bought late Monday
in New York. A higher euro makes goods from the 13-nation currency
zone more expensive for customers abroad. Along with the rise in the
pound, the stronger euro also makes visits to much of Europe more
expensive for travelers from elsewhere and makes shopping trips to the
U.S. more appealing to Europeans. "The dollar is a basket case," said
Peter Schiff, president of Euro Pacific Capital Inc. "We are going to
pay the piper for years of having the underlying fundamentals of our
economy disintegrate beneath our feet." Given the state of the U.S.
economy, he said, the dollar could continue to fall in the coming
years against the Euro, to $2.50 or even $3. more... As the Middle East oil moves to the Euro, so will the rest of the world gravitate there as the dollar weakens and our fake system collapses as it inevitably would. Learn the history of the Federal Reserve, which is neither federal nor reserve. Where money is made out of thin air in exchange for the manual labor required of the masses to pay it back. This system works great for the powerful few that had the money and run the banks until inflation pops their bubble and we all fly apart. This is part of the plan of the New World Order, who needs a weaker more dependent America because the center of power is not going to fall on America, but on the revived Roman Empire of Bible prophecy. Given the HIStory, Our Future Bible studies, it's a matter of years away.
It's Time for an International Anti-Terror Army Watching
America (July 10, 2007) -
THE world should not be an open field for terrorists
who kill innocent civilians and use violent operations as a
political tool. We cannot remain silent about the nations that offer
financial assistance to and harbor terrorist cells. The world cannot
afford to cower as these shadowy groups remain hidden. The world's
nations are more than capable of ending terrorism and stopping those
that use it to blackmail the international community. This
past month, many countries suffered terrifying attacks by
extremists. While Iraq continues to be plagued by terrorists,
religious fundamentalist occupied the Red Mosque in Islamabad
WATCH. Terrorist attacks have been staged in London, Glasgow and
an ancient temple in Yemen, which was built in the days of the
Prophet Suleiman. Recently Morocco has turned into a military camp
which is on a high security alert. If we had a global military force
dedicated to fighting terrorism in the name of the entire world,
this phenomenon would not have reached such dangerous
proportions. It is obvious that individual nations - including
Britain, Spain and the world's sole superpower the United States -
have failed to overcome today's terrorist threat. That is why it is
time for the U.N. Security Council to convene an emergency session
to arrive at some major decisions, such as the formation of an
international army to fight terror around the world. Such a force
must be equipped with the most modern weapons and be supported by
the latest fighter aircraft and naval vessels, and a high level of
logistics capability to achieve its goals. Globalization and open
markets have linked the interests of all nations. As a result of
this, ensuring security too has become the responsibility of all
nations. This is reason enough to create an international army under
the command of the U.N. Security Council. The United Nations should
immediately hold an emergency conference to create this
international anti-terror army. Any country that refuses to support
this effort or which harbors terrorists should be targeted for
military action until its leaders are thrown out. We must never
again allow the world to fall prey to terrorism. The United Nations
must step up and provide security and stability to counties that are
now being stalked by terror. The entire world is tired of terrorist
blackmail and looks forward to being rescued by the international
anti-terror army. more...
Bush OKs 'integration' with European Union WorldNetDaily
(May 8, 2007) - President Bush
signed an agreement creating a "permanent body" that commits the
U.S. to "deeper transatlantic economic integration," without
ratification by the Senate as a treaty or passage by Congress as a
law. The "Transatlantic Economic Integration" between the U.S. and
the European Union was
signed April 30 at the White House
by Bush, German Chancellor Angela Merkel – the current president of
the European Council – and European Commission President José Manuel
Barroso. The
document acknowledges "the transatlantic economy remains at the
forefront of globalization," arguing
that the U.S. and the European Union "seek to strengthen
transatlantic economic integration." The agreement established a new
Transatlantic Economic Council to be chaired on the U.S. side by a
cabinet-level officer in the White House and on the EU side by a
member of the European Commission. The current U.S. head of the new
Transatlantic Economic Council is
Allan Hubbard, assistant to the
president for Economic Policy and director of the National Economic
Council. The current EU head of the council is
Günther Verheugen, vice-President of
the European Commission in charge of enterprise and industry. The
Transatlantic Economic Council was tasked with creating regulatory
convergence between the U.S. and the EU on some 40 different public
policy areas, including intellectual property rights, developing
security standards for international trade, getting U.S. GAAP
(Generally Accepted Accounting Practices) recognized in Europe,
developing innovation and technology in health industries,
implementing RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technologies,
developing a science-based plan on bio-based products and
establishing a "regular dialogue" to address obstacles to
investment. At a
joint press conference, Bush thanked
the other two leaders for signing the "trans-Atlantic economic
integration plan," commenting that, "It is a recognition that the
closer that the United States and the EU become, the better off our
people will be." Barroso said the Transatlantic Economic Council is
meant to be "a permanent body, with senior people on both sides of
the Atlantic." As
WND has reported, Secretary of
Commerce Carlos Gutierrez repeatedly has pushed for North American
integration, much as the April 30 agreement proposes closer U.S.-EU
integration. Mexico's ambassador to the U.N., Enrique Berruga, has
called for a North American Union to be created in the next eight
years. more...
Global governance is not necessarily losing national identity, but having laws dictated by foreign interests. This is exactly what is happening. In a Western world that prides itself on rule of law, whoever writes the laws controls the nations. What is being worked toward now is integrating international law that trumps national law. This is a very dangerous game to play with men hungry for power. They have done an effective job hiding their evil intentions from the world and to find out what they've been up to one must search it out. Most people are content with their personal situation enough to let things move on in their course. The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP.gov) is meeting in a formal organizational structure working to integrate and harmonize our laws. The course of the world today is taking us directly to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy and those in control in the world are not looking out for the interests of the world, but are consolidating their power to control the world with their brand of laws meant to further solidify their control. This will eventually be handed over to the antichrist. That the man of sin is said to come from a revived Rome -- See Daniel 9:26,27 -- is interesting considering what has been occurring since EUROMED -- E.U. "ROMED" -- in 1995 with the consolidation of power in Europe. Now we are seeing this integration of international trade is creating the infrastructure and the beginning of governmental integration that can more easily be used in the future to integrate control of many nations through laws dictated from outside the United States. This is only the beginning, and it starts out seemingly insignificant so as not to catch the ire of the population. "We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected the promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world-government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the National auto-determination practiced in past centuries." -David Rockefeller in an address to Trilateral Commission meeting, 1991
Al Qaeda's No. 2 says end of West imminent, video shows CNN (July
5, 2007) - In a newly released videotaped message
similar to a "fireside chat," al Qaeda's second-in-command issues
advice and directives for the Muslim world, terrorism expert Laura
Mansfield said Wednesday. In the one-hour, 34-minute video, titled
"The Advice of One Concerned," Ayman al-Zawahiri includes clips from
other videos and news broadcasts, including one from al-Furqan, the
video production arm of the Islamic State of Iraq, according to
Mansfield, who obtained the video. Al-Zawahiri says in the message
that the defeat of the West is imminent, and that "the enemy" is
trying to forestall the inevitable, Mansfield said. "The good omens of
the new dawn of victory have begun to loom on the horizon, with
Allah's permission and will," he says. "And the stage preceding
victory is normally, in the history of nations, the stage in which
there is most seen an increase in conspiracies, plots and inciting of
discord in an attempt by the enemy, who has begun to see his defeat
approach, to push back and delay the defeat as much as he can." Al-Zawahiri
does not reference the recent terrorism incidents in the United
Kingdom in the video. Mansfield said it appears to be more of a "state
of the ummah [community]" style of address "intended to try and
provide advice to the Muslim world in a manner similar to the
'fireside chat.'" Al-Zawahiri advises people in Iraq and the
Palestinian territory, Mansfield said, and renews his call for young
men to join the jihad in Iraq and Afghanistan. Included is a video
clip of the late Sheikh Abdullah Azzam -- an extremist in Afghanistan
during the Soviet occupation -- reminding Muslims that jihad is their
responsibility. Al-Zawahiri also rebukes Fatah for battling Hamas in
the Palestinian territory, telling party members to "return to your
religion, your Islam, your honor and your Arabness." Last month, al-Zawahiri,
in an audiotaped message posted on several Islamist Web sites, voiced
his support for Hamas leaders who maintain control of Gaza after a
split with Fatah, a more moderate Palestinian faction. "We say to you,
now that you are in control of Gaza, you should remember two things:
One is that being in power is not a goal in itself, but the goal is,
rather, to implement the rule of Allah," al-Zawahiri said in that
audiotape, according to a CNN translation. "Two, this control is
incomplete and unstable, for the [Israeli] plans are being made to
invade Gaza. Unite with your mujahedeen brothers in Palestine and do
not stir up problems with them. "Unite your ranks with all of the
mujahedeen in the world for the upcoming battle [of Gaza] that I
expect the Egyptians and Saudis to participate in." The audiotaped
message was a reversal of al-Zawahiri's previous criticism of Hamas,
issued after its leaders agreed to form a unity government with Fatah
leaders. Hamas fighters wrested control of Gaza from Fatah security
forces two weeks ago, prompting Palestinian Authority President
Mahmoud Abbas, based in the West Bank, to replace the Hamas leadership
with an emergency government. Since then, the United States, the
European Union and Israel have agreed to release funds to the new
Palestinian government. The money had been frozen after Hamas won
legislative elections last year.
I place the NWO link here because of the perported writings of Albert Pike in 1871 of the three world wars. The last of which is the current war between the West and radical Islam. He writes,
That adoration will be directed at the man of sin, the antichrist as described in
This will begin at the abomination of desolation, when the man of sin declares himself to be god as described in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4. So the ultimate goal of everything we see happening in the world is all part of the plan to reveal Lucifer's antichrist and cause worship of him as god rather than the One True God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. It seem Albert Pike and his Masonic and Illuminati network had been planning for this and now we are seeing those plans come to fruition.
The New World Order Tracking Device: RFID RINF
Alternative News (July
1, 2007) - The Bermuda Government are issuing vehicle
owners with credit card sized stickers containing a RFID chip and it
is expected that every vehicle in Bermuda will carry one within a year
or two. The scheme is mandatory and a $10,000 penalty applies if
owners remove the chips. The first country to back the system was
Singapore, well known for its lack of human rights. RFID readers are
being placed in telephone poles and buildings throughout Bermuda,
which enable authorities to monitor the past and present location of
vehicles and record the speed at which they are travelling. The
information is being sent to high speed computers that calculate
everything you could possibly imagine about a travellers journey, even
the route taken. It is planned that the computer will compile a list
of driving offences within the past 24 hours and will automatically
pass this information on to the police. Roger Crombie, a Bermuda
resident and victim of RFID vehicle tracking said: “It should be
stated that Dr. Brown, the Transport Minister who introduced this
system, has said that he does not intend the chip to be used for any
purpose other than tracking down drivers whose vehicles are not
registered. I believe he means it, but it is not Dr. Brown’s
intentions we have to worry about. It will take time to put the system
in place, and Dr. Brown has said that he does not intend to stay in
power forever. “The person to worry about is the Premier who succeeds
Dr. Brown, or the one who succeeds that one. The chip system is the
perfect method for keeping close track of citizens, a dictator’s
dream,” said concerned citizen Mr. Crombie. Similar RFID systems are
being used in New York and London, which has reduced traffic and cut
business profits by 40%. The use of RFID chips are increasing around
the world at an astonishing rate, with continuous promotion from New
World Order heavyweights including the Bush Administration and also
from the VeriChip Corp, who manufacture human implantable chips and
have been pushing for RFID chips to be tested on the U.S. military.

Quiet or they might wake up...The Totalitarian Tiptoe David
Icke Newsletter (July
1, 2007) -
It's kind of scary how much information about the hidden history of politics is out there and where it is all leading. I can see how many people could get a whiff of this information and disregard it, it's part of our programming I think. The idea of "conspiracy" comes up and we immediately relegate the information to the kook section of memory to which we rarely go again. The more I understand Bible prophecy though, and our timing in it, the less I feel like a kook for seeing the possibility and the more blessed I feel to be led through information supporting Bible prophecy in regard to a world that will soon be controlled by the man of sin. The people have no power, even when we vote because all those in power or rich and well-known enough to get into power are all playing the same game with two faces. Given the nearness of the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, I wouldn't be a good watchman to remain silent. What can we do about it? Watch and pray.
Former Soviet Dissident Warns For EU Dictatorship Unsealed Prophecy (July 1, 2007) - WOW! Has Vladimir Bukovksy been reading the Bible? Don’t know if he realizes it or not, but he is describing the EU in very much the same way as Daniel does. Here is a part of an interview with him: And here is what Daniel had to say more than 2000 years back: Dan 7:7-8 After this I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things. | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder |
EU pours Ł3.8bn into 'brainwashing campaign' UK Telegraph (July 2007) - The European Union is spending Ł3.8 billion a year on "propaganda" to win over its sceptical citizens, it is claimed. As well as publishing a plethora of pamphlets and employing an army of public relations staff, the EU has spent hundreds of millions of pounds on teaching aids, school trips and even cartoons. According to Lee Rotherham, the author of a new book which examines the EU's spending on its image, such initiatives are an "outrageous and cynical attempt to brainwash the young". The Europa Diary, a gift from the EU to schoolchildren, is one example cited by Mr Rotherham in Hearts & Minds: the Tax-funded PR Campaign to Make us Love Brussels. The diary has been sent to 1.2 million pupils in more than 9,000 schools across Europe. Its calendar includes pages that describe the European Parliament as "the people's voice" and claims that the EU has "improved the quality of people's everyday lives". A version of the diary sent to Dutch schools describes the European Parliament as the "most important multi-national organ in the world". Let's Explore Europe Together, an online teaching aid aimed at nine to 12-year-olds, describes the EU as a "really good plan that had never been tried before". The European Parliament has also funded a cartoon called Operation Red Dragon, featuring a daring, fictitious MEP, Elisa Correr, who becomes "embroiled in a risky and fascinating adventure while in pursuit of her parliamentary activities". She dodges assassins, hunts down a general who broke an arms embargo, and still has time to debate copyright law in Brussels. The text admits: "European Parliamentarians do not generally lead such dangerous lives ... nevertheless you can learn about the work of an MEP and other European institutions from the story." | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | For more on this campaign, see the video supporting European films by the EU. The video is not appropriate subject matter for children and is of a sexual nature. Which is why I find it telling.

John 8:43-45 Alex Jones receives "anonymously" the member roster of the Bohemian Grove InfoWars (June 29, 2007) - An interesting package came into the Infowars mailbox recently-- sent anonymously with no return address-- but the contents revealed the reason for secrecy. Someone has shipped our office the 2006 membership roster for the secretive and exclusive Bohemian Grove, which Alex Jones infiltrated and exposed in 2000. A number of high profile elites appear on the list, including David Rockefeller (and son), Henry Kissinger, George H.W. Bush, Gerald Ford, David Gergen (who Alex Jones confronted about his grove membership), Colin Powell, George P. Shultz, Donald Rumsfeld and even Kenneth Starr, who gained attention after prosecuting Bill Clinton. See a 1981 news report on the grove. Many U.S. Presidents have gone to the grove, but most do not appear on the membership roster, though we know that Reagan, Nixon (both pictured below at the Grove), George W. Bush, Herbert Hoover and many other presidents have also attended but are not listed, as is the case for presidential advisor Karl Rove. Walter Cronkite, the infamous and notable TV journalist, is also a member and listed in the directory. The 'P' next to his name denotes "Regular - Professional." Also listed is the King of Sweden, Carl XVI Gustaf. Beyond Presidents and elite world controllers, the exclusive male-only club has obviously used the appeal of the retreat to influence the world of academia-- at least 50 well-known universities are represented at Bohemian Grove, including almost every school in California, at least any that come to mind. The members-- which includes listings of older and deceased members who no longer attend-- are influential faculty members, board members, trustees or presidents of universities. Stanford University with 17 members and U.C. Berkeley with 19 members, were the most heavily represented schools. (See members from academia below-- note: only those members with schools listed by their name were counted as academia, with many other members listed by city and name or only by name). more... | NewWorldOrder | America | While the information sent anonymously cannot be taken as fact, I find it interesting that our nation's scholarship is in such high attendance. Knowing that the best way to affect change long-term is to brainwash the youth, and experiencing that ourselves in the education system, I have no doubt that many in the power structure of the education system are active participants in the plans of the New World Order. I also have no doubt that many people we deem as good are really playing an act in public while their true intentions are only seen in these groups of common interest, that of bringing a New World Order and its connections with the occult. We are conditioned to take these "conspiracy theories" with a grain of salt. I know I have for a long time. But the closer we get to the end, the more bold these groups are becoming and the more people in the know are speaking up about these activities. So while we can't take the names listed here as fact, actions speak louder than words and our nation is definitely moving toward a New World Order, whether we like it or not. And let's not forget the timing of HIStory, Our Future, which places the abomination of desolation in February of 2009. If we are truly that close, we should expect that global governance is at our doorstep. Indeed, it is already in place and just putting the finishing touches together so that one man will be given control of the world when he displays his signs and lying wonders to an amazed world that knows they cannot defeat the beast. Revelation 13 The "Cashless" Implant Society Draws Closer NewsWithViews (June 27, 2007) - There are days reading the news that I have to pinch myself. Surely this is some type of a bad dream from which I shall soon awake. Unfortunately, the painful realization is that I am awake and this Orwellian nightmare is really happening. This time, it's trying to get under our skin -- literally. I first viewed this startling development in a June 25th article appearing in YAHOO! NEWS CANADA, the American Medical Association has adopted a statement that such devices could be medically beneficial. Charitably, for those of us with "paranoid phobias" have to make "informed consent." I then undertook a successful internet search to find the actual report myself. That American Medical Association Ethics Commission Report, "Radio Frequency ID Devices in Humans," is available for download online. Despite serious health concerns, which even the AMA acknowledges, they push for the implants anyway. Looking behind the action, I find power, money, and an old player in the form of "Verichip," variously known at different times as "Digital Angel," and "Applied Digital Solutions." Given the acknowledged risks, it is astounding that the American Medical Association would even consider the process. Perhaps they were influenced by those of their number who have succumbed to temptations and even financial inducements put forth by their manufacturers. Since a small child, I received warnings at my parents' and grandparents' feet that such a system would one day come. I was also taught that it was one I must resist. I was more than shocked in the year 2002 when the Jacobs family of Florida announced it wanted to be the first family in America to "be chipped." They received their implants sequentially on national morning TV programs, including the Today Show (the one I personally videotaped), Good Morning America, and CNN programming. Even before that program, they had received a theological endorsement of this procedure from none other than Pat Robertson. He featured both the Jacobs family and a Dr. Joseph Kickasola, a theologian from his Regent University. They solemnly informed Christians that there were no theological risks to taking this body implant as "they were taking it voluntarily." Only if it was compulsory would the Biblical injunction against it kick in," opined Robertson employee Kickasola. Well, traditionally, hasn't it always been the case that before one starts drafting, they always take volunteers? Taking the prophesied mark was a sure ticket to guaranteed hellfire. Review Revelation chapters 13 and 14 for those clear warnings. Further, there is strictly no advantage either in the here or the hereafter for crossing that "digital divide." The same book containing the warnings against the mark warns that those who took the mark broke out in horrible sores all over their body. They longed for death but death would not come. Hardly a pretty picture! My position on this? Not my dog, not my cat, not my children nor my grandchildren, and definitely not me. It is amazing to me that Christians are undergoing marginalization on this at the same time as full implementation is in place. I had an amazing WRIF radio debate with Benjamin Crčme in May, 1982. As I was against his new "Maitreya the Christ," "Betraya the Christ" or whatever his name is supposed to be, Crčme labeled me "a fundamentalist." I said, "Mr. Crčme, I can understand your aversion to fundamentalism and the Bible as the written word of God. After all, if I were on the FBI's 10 most wanted list, I wouldn't want my friends dropping by the post office. If they did come to the post office and they did read those posters on the wall, I certainly wouldn't want them to take it literally. Everything the Bible warned against, you have proclaimed tonight on this very show 'we are going to do.' I started enumerating. Crčme was howling for mercy. Reviewing the materials I have collected over the past 26 years on this topic, many of which are now archived with the University of Michigan's Bentley Historical Library, it is clear that those who I was monitoring had BIG PLANS they hoped to achieve before the end of the century, as many as possible in the 1980's. It is further clear that they are now once again on the militant march. more... | NewWorldOrder | I don't believe these chips will be the final "mark of the beast" because of a recent story I read about RFID ink. Also here. This ink can be injected like a tattoo under the skin. This eliminates the concern of people being able to steal the device from under ones skin. This would also allow a visible tattoo to accompany the invisible electronic signature used to access medical records, bank account information, etc. The Bible says that without the mark one will not be able to buy or sell. If we moved completely away from a cash-based system to an electronic one, not only would this benefit the international bankers, but the RFID ink would be the most secure and logical choice.

Taxation Plan pdf - Powerful international organizations and personalities, including the United Nations and left-wing billionaire oligarch George Soros, are promoting global taxes that would extract trillions of dollars from the American people. In violation of the letter and spirit of the so-called "Helms-Biden" U.N. "reform" law, which was passed by the U.S. Congress to prohibit the world body from promoting or adopting international taxes, the U.N. has prepared a book, New Sources of Development Finance, advocating global taxes on the American people. The book suggests global environmental taxes and a global currency tax that would affect the international investments of ordinary Americans.

Jeane Kirkpatrick said that it was viewed as the cornerstone of a Marxist-oriented New International Economic Order (NIEO). This was conceived as a scheme to transfer money and technology from the U.S. and other developed countries to the Third World. Kirkpatrick strongly opposed ratification of UNCLOS. The elements of a world government could be put in place if UNCLOS, described as the most comprehensive treaty ever and a “Constitution of the Oceans,” is ratified and implemented. At a time when conservatives and Republicans are raising concerns about activist judges on the national level who cite international law and foreign rulings in their opinions, UNCLOS will open the U.S. up to international lawsuits and climate change litigation, providing a back door for implementation of the unratified and costly global warming treaty. more... | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | Now we know why the Panama Canal was given away Rumor Mill News (June 19, 2007) - Treason Abounds ~ Gov't Cabal Plots North American Union (NAU) Didn't you every wonder why Carter gave away the Panama Canal? In his article titled: Meet Robert Pastor: Father of the North American Union, Jerome Corsi charges that: "Robert Pastor intends to give away U.S. sovereignty to a newly forming North American Union exactly as he gave away the Panama Canal to Panama during Jimmy Carter's presidency."(99) There is absolutely no doubt about the clear and evident goal of the CFR as constantly expressed by their 'golden boy' Dr. Robert A. Pastor. He has been a consistent 'mouth piece' for their agenda for a minimum of eight years which includes the two years of study he made of the European Union before he wrote his 2001 'blueprint' for the NAU. He has been groomed, engaged, supported and showered with accolades from within and without the CFR's many tentacled operations, organizations and 'good ole boy' connections. Over the years he has had access and positions at the highest levels of our government. Of import was the fact that from "February 1975 to January 1977, Dr. Pastor was executive director of the Linowitz Commission on U.S./Latin American Relations. The Linowitz Commission supported President Carter's decision to negotiate a treaty to turn over the Panama Canal to Panama. Pastor left the Linowitz Commission to join [and then] become director of the Office of Latin American and Caribbean Affairs in the National Security Council in the Carter White House. There Pastor served as Carter's 'point man' in getting the Senate to narrowly vote for the Carter-Torrijos Treaty on April 18, 1978, despite staunch objections from conservative politicians including Ronald Reagan."

Bush's Trojan Horse For America NewsWithViews (June 18, 2007) - “Doing nothing is not a solution,” said President George W. Bush last Tuesday at his news conference. “We need to pass immigration reform now.” Since he ‘did nothing’ before or after 9/11 to stop terrorists by leaving our borders open and he hasn’t done anything for the past six years to stop illegal aliens, now he offers to enforce our laws with $4.4 billion from money paid by illegal aliens as fines to gain citizenship. That’s like saying police officers issuing speeding tickets will pay for the construction of the highway! “Gosh Aunt Bee, that makes about as much sense as a hound dog chasing a porcupine to see how many quills he can bite!” said Gomer. After ‘doing nothing’ for the past six years and clearly in violation of his oath of office, he arm twisted key senators to reintroduce his ‘Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill’ that was defeated in the Senate on June 7, 2007 by a massive outpouring of Americans protests. Is Bush completely out his mind or will he go down in history as a cunning Trojan horse president? You can’t be sure. But, it’s a fact he’s playing citizens of this country as fools that will do nothing to stop his plans for dissolving the sovereignty of the United States. As shown for many years, Americans won’t react until it’s too late. What Bush proposes stands as a Trojan horse. Except, in this case, Bush drags the horse inside the walls of his own country. Just as he lacked understanding of his invasion of Iraq, he’s about to unleash this Trojan horse immigration scheme into the belly of America. It will prove deadly beyond anyone’s understanding. “The whole Senate bill is the horse,” said Dr. John Tanton, publisher of thesocialcontract.com “The Trojan it contains is section 413, which will be taken as authorizing the SPP (Security and Prosperity Partnership), which is mentioned by name, and behind and above this some form of an eventual North American Union.” Tanton said, “Here is what Robert Pastor, American University professor and chief architect of the NAU concept, writes in his book "Toward a North American Community" (Institute for International Economics ) on page 9: “Second, NAFTA is just a free trade area, whereas the European Union passed that threshold decades ago, on its way to becoming a customs union (with a common external tariff), a common market (with free movement of labor and capital), and finally an economic and monetary Union." “I am theorizing that Bush sees full blown North American Union on a continental scale as his ultimate legacy,” Tanton said. “One that through its "free movement of labor" provisions that will vitiate most immigration control legislation as it applies to North America, including the present bill. In its grand scope, the NAU will overshadow in the long run Bush’s blunder of the Iraq war. The Senate immigration bill is just the "carrier," the "stalking horse" for this larger concept.” If you look at the media running stories sympathetic to massive illegal alien migration, it’s a prep job for ‘soothing’ and ‘dumbing down’ American citizens until they won’t know what hit them. America’s middle class degrades before your eyes in 2007. Once our borders vanish, if you think 20 million illegal aliens haven’t done enough damage, you ain’t seen nothing compared to what the next 20 million will bring. As that Trojan horse with free movement of labor from south of the border ruptures our language, culture, economic and educational systems, social security, hospitals and prisons—we morph into another Mexico. In other words, the hound dog caught the porcupine’s full arsenal of quills. Once another 10 to 20 million of Mexico’s poor take America’s jobs, we create a whole new poor class.

For a long time, I didn't want to believe it, but I can't deny his own words. He's pushing for a New World Order, the goal of the elitists that are grooming the earth for the ultimate fulfillment of the one world government that will be run by the antichrist according to Bible prophecy. Stopping these events is not possible as the Bible is 100% accurate, but it is the evil forces of this world that are pushing events to their fulfillment, whether they realize it or not. Seeing the kind of evil and injustice in the world today really makes me want the Lord to return sooner rather than later to fix this mess we find ourselves in now. Absolute power corrupts absolutely and the governments of the world are filled with those holding the power over the people, creating laws and planning for complete control in the near future over the population. Eventually it will come down to a simple choice, worship the beast as God or die. Christ is our salvation and I urge you to develop a personal relationship with Him now if you haven't already. Open your eyes and research this yourself too, the world system is not being designed with your benefit in mind. It is designed to enslave you.

President Bush's New World Order Legacy Accuracy in Media (June 1, 2007) - With his record of defending American borders and national sovereignty in ruins, President Bush has decided to conclude his second term in office by making common cause with those who think America's future lies in appeasing the "international community." He apparently wants his "legacy" to be that he cared for the rest of the world. Watch your wallets―and your freedom. The latest phase of this "legacy building" campaign began with a plea on Wednesday for more money to fight AIDS. This provided a photo opportunity for the President to pose with a black child. So far, about $200 billion has been spent by the federal government on AIDS, without any cure or vaccine being developed. But it looks "compassionate" to throw money at the problem. Tens of billions are now being spent, some of it provided by agreements brokered through Bill Clinton's foundation, to fight AIDS with potentially toxic and lethal drugs. On the eve of the G-8 meeting of major industrialized nations in Germany, Bush gave a global warming speech on Thursday at an event hosted by the U.S. Global Leadership Campaign. This is a coalition of business and non-government organizations that includes the pro-world government Citizens for Global Solutions, Physicians for Social Responsibility, Ted Turner's U.N. Foundation, Planned Parenthood, the American Friends Service Committee, the Alliance for a Global Community, and the United Nations Association. It looks like Bush is abandoning what's left of his conservative base before they abandon him. Bush told the group, "This is a fine organization and it's an important organization. It's rallying businesses and non-governmental organizations and faith-based and community and civic organizations across our country to advance a noble cause, ensuring that the United States leads the world in spreading hope and opportunity." Another part of this "legacy building" is his decision to seek ratification of the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), a dangerous document that transfers control of the oceans and much of the land area of the world as well to a U.N. bureaucracy. It finances its activities with a global tax. The pact is endorsed by some of the same groups and individuals involved in the Global Leadership Campaign. UNCLOS charges American corporations a "fee" for exploiting ocean resources for the benefit of America and threatens these same corporations with global climate change litigation before an international court if they "pollute" the oceans from anywhere on the face of the earth. U.S. Navy support for UNCLOS masks the sharp decline in U.S. Naval forces. The number of U.S. ships has declined under Bush to 276, from a high of 594 under President Reagan, who rejected UNCLOS. The Bush budget projects their further decline to 210. The American Shipbuilding Association says that, if present trends continue, the U.S. Naval Fleet will decline to 180 ships by 2024. more... | NewWorldOrder | America | The Secret Nazis Covet the Temple Mount Ezine @rticles - "Even before the end of this war, I revealed to you the plans for a NAZI UNDERGROUND MOVEMENT, to go underground as a SECRET organization the very moment they lost the war - to lay low...then come forth when least expected, RESTORE GERMANY TO POWER, and go on to finally accomplish their aims in a WORLD WAR III" - The Plain Truth, Sept. 1948. The Philadelphia Trumpet magazine (Feb. 2000) reminded its international audience that Herbert W. Armstrong wrote those prophetic words long before they were confirmed by Reuters Arthur Spiegelman, who wrote on May 10, 1996: "Realizing they were losing the war in 1944, Nazi leaders met top German industrialists to plan a secret post-war international network to restore them to power, according to a newly declassified U.S. intelligence document. The document...says an SS general and a representative of the German armaments ministry told such companies as Krupp and Rohling that they must be prepared to finance the Nazi Party...when it went underground." Ella Steinberg, executive director of the World Jewish Congress stated: "Now that the Nazi secret plan has been confirmed, the central question is whether it has been carried out." Need we wonder? Considering German hegemony throughout Europe is practically a done deal (with the Vatican's blessing), aren't Herbert W. Armstrong's warnings about the final revival of the "Holy Roman Empire" being fulfilled before our very eyes? Only the deaf, dumb and blind could deny that the Germans have thoroughly carried out their plans! But what is the German-Catholic kingdom without the crown of Jerusalem? "Woe to Ariel, Ariel, the city where David dwelt!" (Isaiah 29:1). The Vatican covets Mount Zion and the Temple Mount and Europe won't quit until it occupies the eternal capital of Israel! Both the Arabs and the Jews had better beware any European moves into the Middle East. David Ben-Ariel, a Christian-Zionist writer and author of Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall, shares a special focus on the Middle East, reflected in hard-hitting articles that help others improve their understanding of that troubled region. Check out the Beyond Babylon blog. | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Temple Mount | RCC | NewWorldOrder | Woe to Ariel! (Jerusalem to suffer EU occupation) Ezine @rticles - Isaiah 29:1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! Carl Sandburg, an American writer warned: "If America forgets where she came from...if she listens to the deniers and mockers, then will begin the rot and dissolution." The same principle applies to our Jewish brethren in Israel. The most merciful God of Jacob-Israel resurrected the nation of Israel from the graveyard of history and offered us a new opportunity to fulfill our unique calling to become a model nation, a kingdom of priests, a light to all nations, based upon the Law and the Prophets. Yet secular Jews, Hellenist Jews, UNJews, have divorced themselves from the Bible and have sought to make Israel just like all the other nations. And the corrupt Chief Rabbinate and blind religious leaders have woefully neglected (and forfeited by default) Judaism's most holy site: the Temple Mount. Despite the faithlessness of many of Israel's leaders, the Great God of the Universe liberated areas of Judea and Samaria and restored Judaism's holiest site (supposedly) - the Temple Mount - into Jewish hands. Did Israel immediately invite the God of history to return with our exiles (now making aliyah) by building the Third Temple? Did they honor the God of our fathers by creating an Embassy for the Eternal upon the Temple Mount? No! Instead Israelis despised their most sacred inheritance, the crown jewel of Jerusalem, and permitted militant Muslims to continue their abominable occupation. The foreign foxes terrorize faithful Jews and Christian Zionists who attempt to worship upon the Temple Mount and illegally refuse to let them pray or read the Bible. Israel has failed to uphold religious rights for non-Muslims (that are trampled daily) and has failed to guarantee "freedom of access." The biblical solution is to build the "House of Prayer for All Peoples" spoken of by the Prophets. Queen Victoria said: "I think it very unwise to give up what we hold," referring to territories of the British-Israelite empire. Judah has been "very unwise" to surrender holy land to the enemies of God and Israel in the name of a lying peace. The accursed and treacherous Oslo accords, like a murderous cancer, continue to eat away at the very foundations of the Jewish state and the Jews have only themselves to blame. Does someone have to be a prophet to recognize prophetic trends and to be grieved about them? Or to perceive that divine judgment is surely coming upon our beloved nations? Can't we just be like righteous King Josiah who HEARD AND BELIEVED the inspired words of the PROPHETS? (2 Chron. 34:15-33). He took God's "ancient" warning seriously and then did everything he could to avert national disaster! God respected him for it. Yet the American, British and Jewish peoples today despise those who dare come forth, teaching and preaching the Word of God, encouraging repentance to spare our people from the unprecedented "Time of Jacob's Trouble," "the Great Tribulation" (Jer. 30:7, Matt. 24:21). At least, when they're temporarily crushed under the heels of a German-led Europe, when the Jewish Quarter is made Judenrein and the Temple Mount seized and occupied by Vatican forces that are intent on ripping the heart out of Israel for their pagan purposes (Dan. 11:45, Zech. 14:2), they will remember that they had been warned by a loving God, and hopefully will then have a change of heart and attitude that will hasten the process of redemption and welcome home the Messiah whom Two Witnesses will announce to the cities of Judah and proclaim to the world (Zech. 12:10). | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Temple Mount | RCC | NewWorldOrder | Solana, Zoellick and the World Bank News With Views: Constance Cumbey (May 31, 2007) - Portfolio now include Robert Zoellick and the World Bank. Newswithviews regular readers may remember my February 21st article. In it, I covered Javier Solana's Valentine's Day speech (February 14, 2007) in New York City. He was addressing the Arthur F. Burns Foundation. He was introduced by Robert F. Zoellick. Today that same Robert F. Zoellick, “a friend for many, many years” of Javier Solana [1] was nominated by President George W. Bush to be head of the World Bank.[2] Perhaps raising their own expected opposition so that they may just as rapidly unilaterally squelch it, the Bookings Institution, another confederate, together with Zoellick for Javier Solana's Global Governance initiative, most disingenuously issued a statement that foreign countries may be unhappy at the nomination. I suspect that at least “The Face and Voice of Europe”[3] in the form of Javier Solana is not. I also suspect that the Brookings Institution itself is not unhappy! At the February 14th New York City event, “dear Javier” was introduced by German Ambassador to the USA, Klaus Scharioth as “The Face and Voice of Europe.” Five weeks later, Javier Solana would with the assistance of New York University, Stanford University and the Brookings Institution all apparently acting with the blessings of the United States State Department would launch a new global security initiative. [4] Javier Solana has evidently had a cozy relationship with both Zoellick and the Brookings Institution. On January 5th, while in the USA, his busy itinerary included a meeting with Brookings Institution representatives.[5] Gingerly, like testing the water, “global constitutionalism” a/k/a “global governance” is being advanced. This is not entirely unlike George H. W. Bush (Bush the elder) mentioning the New World Order and his intentions to advance same in a speech he auspiciously delivered on September 11, 1991. Similar speeches were given other times.[6] That Robert Zoellick is part of that scene is clear. In addition to being a friend of Javier Solana for many years, Robert Zoellick has with equal vigor been a friend and proponent of a “New World Order,” more recently and politely known as “global governance.” As early as March, 1992, Robert Zoellick was speaking of his World Economic Forum inspired epiphanies of a New World Order.[7] They are calling all of this by various names these days. Condoleezza Rice calls it “Transformational Diplomacy.” Fletcher Law School Associate Professor Daniel W. Drezner calls it “the New New World Order.”[8] It appears that although Javier Solana may have his European migraines as reluctance to hand him everything appears among the masses, he has offsetting advantages of global elitist support. | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Solana | NewWorldOrder | America | Secretive Bilderberg meeting set for Turkey WorldNetDaily (May 30, 2007) - The super-secret Bilderberg Group, an organization of powerful international elites, is set to meet this week somewhere in Turkey – but even the precise location is a mystery.

Welcome to the mysterious world of secret societies. Did someone say "secret societies"? "Most people don't realize they exist because their minds have been conditioned to reject any thought of such organizations," explains Dr. Stanley Monteith, a medical doctor by training, who set out on a mission to research groups like the Bilderbergers 40 years ago. The results of his startling research is a little book called "Brotherhood of Darkness," in which he exposes the global agenda of organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission. How important are events like this weekend's Bilderberg conference? It may not make any difference now, but in 2004, according to the New York Times, it was the standout "performance" of Sen. John Edwards at the super-secret Bilderberg meeting in Italy that sealed the deal on his nomination as John Kerry's vice presidential running mate. Since 1954, the Bilderberg group has convened government, business, academic and journalistic representatives from the U.S., Canada and Europe with the express purpose of exploring the future of the North Atlantic community. The first meeting was held at the Hotel de Bilderberg in the Netherlands – thus the name. According to sources that have penetrated the high-security meetings in the past, the Bilderberg meetings emphasize a globalist agenda and promote the idea that the notion of national sovereignty is antiquated and regressive. "It's officially described as a private gathering," noted a BBC report in 2003, "but with a guest list including the heads of European and American corporations, political leaders and a few intellectuals, it's one of the most influential organizations on the planet." And according to a BBC report on 2004's conference in Stresa: "Not a word of what is said at Bilderberg meetings can be breathed outside. No reporters are invited in and while confidential minutes of meetings are taken, names are not noted. The shadowy aura extends further – the anonymous answerphone message, for example; the fact that conference venues are kept secret. The group, which includes luminaries such as Henry Kissinger and former UK chancellor Kenneth Clarke, does not even have a website." But, counter participants, the secrecy is not evidence of a grand conspiracy, but only an opportunity to speak frankly with other world leaders out of the limelight of press coverage and its inevitable repercussions. "There's absolutely nothing in it," argues the UK's Lord Denis Healey, one of the four founders of Bilderberg. "We never sought to reach a consensus on the big issues at Bilderberg," he told the BBC. "It's simply a place for discussion." | NewWorldOrder | Continental currency all the rage WorldNetDaily (May 24, 2007) - On Monday, Bank of Canada Gov. David Dodge told the Chicago Council on Global Affairs that North America could one day move toward a euro-style currency. Dodge's comments add to a growing list of comments from Canadian economists, academics and government officials supporting the idea of creating the amero as a North American common currency. Dodge argued a common North American currency would help buffer the adverse effects of exchange rate fluctuations between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar. Currently, the Canadian dollar has surged to a 30-year high against the U.S. currency, a move Dodge noted makes Canadian products a lot less competitive for export to the U.S., Canada's major foreign market. "In the past two months alone," Dodge told the group in Chicago, "the Canadian dollar is up about 8 percent against the U.S. dollar, and is now worth more than 91 cents (U.S.)." In October 2006, El Universal, a Mexican newspaper published in Spanish, reported in a little-noticed article the then-president-elect of Mexico and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper in their first meeting together shared a vision of a future North America united under a common currency. El Universal reported Gilles Duceppe, the leader of the separatist party Bloc Québécois commented at the October 2006 Calderon-Harper meeting in Ottawa that a unified North American currency might be necessary to compete in a global economy. The Canadian, a progressive Canadian newspaper that supports preserving Canadian sovereignty, expressed surprise at Duceppe's support of what the paper characterized as "the amero." The paper commented, "Mr. Duceppe and other elites of the so-called 'Québec sovereignty' movement view selling-out to U.S. based neo-cons to be much more commercially profitable than forming a new Québec nation." more... | America | NewWorldOrder | Global Agenda: Kuwait can't wait The Jerusalem Post (May 24, 2007) - Last Friday, Kuwait announced that it was abandoning the "peg" linking the value of its currency, the dinar, to the US dollar, replacing it with a peg to a basket of currencies. Kuwait was the first country in the Middle East to make such a move, but it is unlikely to be the last. Why did Kuwait take this step and why are other countries expected to follow? The simple answer is that the fall in the value of the US dollar is pushing up the cost of Kuwaiti imports. In other words, being linked to the US dollar when the dollar is declining can create problems. If so, the Kuwaiti decision was perfectly rational and, indeed, should have come much earlier. The Kuwaitis are, in this respect, no different from apartment owners in Israel whose dollar-linked prices have been eroded by the dollar's fall against the shekel. Since the same logic applies to oil producers generally, because oil prices are quoted in dollars - it is hardly surprising that Kuwait is likely to start a fashion. But is there some deeper significance to this development? Probably - but just what depends on how you want to look at it. As noted, from a purely rational economic perspective, the only remarkable feature of the Kuwaiti decision is why it was so long in coming. No country that trades with all the main regions in the world should link its currency to one other currency; a basket approach is the most logical and the most theoretically correct. But rational economics is not the sole, or even main, criterion to be applied. more... | America | NewWorldOrder | Council on Foreign Relations Pushes for Three Regional Currencies in the World Raiders News Network (May 24, 2007) - Create a global lending institution that weakens the economy of wealthy nations, enslaves Third World countries, and prevents those nations from rising out of their impoverished conditions. Blame that institution for creating a plethora of global financial crises over the past fifty years. Then offer a solution of consolidating all of the economies of the world into three different regions, each of which will use one type of currency. Were that scenario to be played out in the latest issue of Mad Magazine, it might be good for a laugh or two. But when it is published by the most influential foreign policy journal in the world, it is cause for more than a little concern. Foreign Affairs is considered by many to be the "playbook" that our nation's leaders use in creating foreign policy. It unabashedly promotes the concept of "globalism," which is a softball term used to describe a utopian one world government. Regardless of the political party in power, our government has worked to implement the journal's agenda for many years. Benn Steil, the CFR's Director of International Economics, argues that the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) practice of "lending" money to poor countries causes them to give up a portion of their sovereignty. The IMF is funded by the wealthy nations of the world, the U.S., Britain and Japan, to name a few. However, since the dollar is the currency of choice for much of the world, the lion's share of funds in the IMF and World Bank are made up of U.S. dollars. The United States, having the fortunate position of possessing the money that the rest of the world has faith in, will then sell government bonds to foreign governments that have just borrowed from the IMF to offset the deficit spending (such as funding the IMF) that Congress approves. To use an analogy, it is like buying a suit from a tailor and then receiving that same money back the next day in the form of a loan. Because of this process, he rightly calls the dollar an absurdity supported only by blind (or stupid) faith in man's wisdom. The logical answer from the perspective of a free marketer is for the U.S. to return to the gold standard, which is what gave the dollar a worldwide prominence in the first place. Not according to Steil, who says: "A revived gold standard is out of the question. In the nineteenth century, governments spent less than ten percent of national income in a given year. Today, they routinely spend half or more, and so they would never subordinate spending to the stringent requirements of sustaining a commodity-based monetary system." There we have it. Since those governments have become more socialist in nature, they must be emancipated from the restraints a hard metal currency would place on them from spending us all into paradise. more... | NewWorldOrder | Bilderberg 2007: Welcome to the Lunatic Fringe Daniel Estulin (May 21, 2007) - In 1954, the most powerful men in the world met for the first time under the auspices of the Dutch royal crown and the Rockefeller family in the luxurious Hotel Bilderberg of the small Dutch town of Oosterbeck.

Bilderberg, one of the world's most powerful secret organizations is run out of an 18m2 offices, staffed by one person, using one telephone line and a single fax number. There is no web page and no brass name plate on the door. The independent press has never been allowed in, and no statements have ever been released on the attendees' conclusions nor has any agenda for a Bilderberg meeting been made public. How, in God's name, can this be possible when Bilderberg´s elite membership list includes all of the most powerful individuals who run the Planet? Leaders of the Bilderberg Club argue that this discretion is necessary to allow participants in the debates to speak freely without being on the record or reported publicly. Otherwise, Bilderbergers state, they would be forced to speak in the language of a press release. Doubtlessly, this discretion allows the Bilderberg Club to deliberate more freely, but that does not respond to the fundamental question: What do the world's most powerful people talk about in these meetings? Any modern democratic system protects the right to privacy, but doesn't the public have a right to know what their political leaders are talking about when they meet the wealthiest business leaders of their respective countries? What guarantees do citizens have that the Bilderberg Club isn't a centre for influence trafficking and lobbying if they aren't allowed to know what their representatives talk about at the Club's secret gatherings? Why are the Davos World Economic Forum and G8 meetings carried in every newspaper, given front page coverage, with thousands of journalists in attendance, while no one covers Bilderberg Club meetings even though they are annually attended by Presidents of the International Monetary Fund, The World Bank, Federal Reserve, chairmen of 100 most powerful corporations in the world such as DaimlerChrysler, Coca Cola, British Petroleum, Chase Manhattan Bank, American Express, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Vice Presidents of the United States, Directors of the CIA and the FBI, General Secretaries of NATO, American Senators and members of Congress, European Prime Ministers and leaders of opposition parties, top editors and CEOs of the leading newspapers in the world. It is surprising that no mainstream corporate media outlets consider a gathering of such figures, whose wealth far exceeds the combined wealth of all United States citizens, to be newsworthy when a trip by any one of them on their own makes headline news on TV. more... | NewWorldOrder | Blair-faced Liars: Blair, Clinton and the New World Order European Institute of Protestant Studies (May 18, 2000) - A very perceptive article by Steve Pierce entitled "My peace I give you", published in the January, 1998, edition of Workers of Iniquity, exposes the fact that it is really the Roman Catholic Church that is behind the façade of Tony Blair and New Labour. It could also be shown that the same is true of Bill Clinton and his universal 'peace' missions. The already proven sympathy of both men with the Romanist faith and system, as well as their active dedication to promoting the policies of the Papacy world-wide, is a reflection of the real men behind the masks. On page 8 Pierce writes: "Until he attended the 1993 meeting [of European Heads of State] in Athens, Tony Blair was merely the Shadow Home Secretary. Following this meeting, however, he was carefully groomed and 'raised up' to fulfil the requirements of the 'coming New Order' which he briefly mentioned in a political speech on March 18, 1997, though few noticed or understood the implications of what he said. Since then he has been carefully steered and has regularly received much guidance and counselling from Bill Clinton, who not only accompanied him to the Amsterdam Summit, but afterwards instructed our Parliament, though the voters who put Blair into office were not allowed to know what was discussed; and what is an American President doing instructing our Parliament in the first place? If it was something beneficial or acceptable to the United Kingdom's populace we would have been told, so obviously whatever was discussed was either alarming or unacceptable. […] It looks like we are going to find out the hard way." What is this 'New Order' being promoted behind the pressed suits and contrived body language of Blair and the hypocritical moralising of the arch-immoralist Clinton? What Tony Blair is really doing, says Pierce, is ushering in the [resurrection of the] 'Holy' Roman Empire. This is entirely consistent with our analysis that the real aim of the European Union is a United Roman Catholic States of Europe, which was the ideal pursued by Pius XII through his Concordat with Adolf Hitler. In a remarkable speech given in French in 1975, Pope Paul VI said that it was "the [Roman] Catholic faith that made Europe" and added: "No other human force in Europe can render the service that is confided to us, promoters of the faith, to awaken the Christian soul of Europe, where its unity is rooted." [Reported in The Reformer, January/February, 1976. Note that it is a "human" force, not one of God.] It is the Papacy that is behind the drive for European unity. The English philosopher Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679) once remarked: "The Papacy is no other than the ghost of the deceased Roman Empire, sitting crowned upon the grave thereof." [Leviathan, Part 4, Chapter 47 (1651).] The Microsoft Encarta Encyclopaedia 99 article on the Roman Empire states: "It was the [Roman Catholic] Church, more than anything, that was the real heir of the Empire, and which was able to provide a measure of continuity after the collapse of temporal power and civil administration. The Papacy continued to be based in Rome and to exert enormous authority over most of Europe, keeping alive not only many of the ideas of the Roman world but also a sense of a wider community which looked to the ancient city for support and leadership." The dream of re-establishing that Empire has never been abandoned. Napoléon and Hitler failed in their attempts. The late Enoch Powell alluded in the Evening Standard (December 2, 1987) to a "profound rearrangement now taking place" involving the "dissolution of the North Atlantic Alliance versus Warsaw Pact confrontation" and resulting in an arrangement which would "reappear like some submerged landscape revealed when the floodwaters fall, an older pattern, which previous generations would have no difficulty in recognising. [...] Its old name is Holy Roman Empire." The comparison is strongly reminiscent of the Biblical prophecy in Revelation 17:8 of a beast ascending out of a bottomless pit. more... | EU/UN/4th Kingdom | RCC | NewWorldOrder | Goodbye U.S. dollar, hello global currency (May 9, 2007) - The director of international economics at the Council of Foreign Relations has launched a scathing attack on sovereignty and national currencies. Benn Steil, writing in the current issue of CFR's influential Foreign Affairs magazine, says "the world needs to abandon unwanted currencies, replacing them with dollars, euros, and multinational currencies as yet unborn." In the article, "The End of National Currency," Steil clearly asserts the dollar and the euro are temporary currencies, perhaps necessary today. He argues "economic development outside the process of globalization is no longer possible." His inevitable conclusion is "countries should abandon monetary nationalism." Steil tempers his embrace of one world currency, writing, "Governments should replace national currencies with the dollar or the euro or, in the case of Asia, collaborate to produce a new multinational currency over a comparably large and economically diversified area." He concludes: "It is the market that made the dollar into global money – and what the market giveth, the market can taketh away. If the tailors balk and the dollar falls, the market may privatize money on its own." The "tailors" Steil has in mind are the world's central bankers. He advises that the U.S. needs "to perpetuate the sound money policies of former Federal Reserve chairmen Paul Volker and Alan Greenspan and return to long-term fiscal discipline." In our current era of large and growing trade imbalances and over $35 trillion in GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) accounted federal deficits, these targets appear unlikely. more... | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | Bush OKs 'integration' with European Union (May 8, 2007) - President Bush signed an agreement creating a "permanent body" that commits the U.S. to "deeper transatlantic economic integration," without ratification by the Senate as a treaty or passage by Congress as a law. The "Transatlantic Economic Integration" between the U.S. and the European Union was signed April 30 at the White House by Bush, German Chancellor Angela Merkel – the current president of the European Council – and European Commission President José Manuel Barroso. The document acknowledges "the transatlantic economy remains at the forefront of globalization," arguing that the U.S. and the European Union "seek to strengthen transatlantic economic integration." The agreement established a new Transatlantic Economic Council to be chaired on the U.S. side by a cabinet-level officer in the White House and on the EU side by a member of the European Commission. The current U.S. head of the new Transatlantic Economic Council is Allan Hubbard, assistant to the president for Economic Policy and director of the National Economic Council. The current EU head of the council is Günther Verheugen, vice-President of the European Commission in charge of enterprise and industry. The Transatlantic Economic Council was tasked with creating regulatory convergence between the U.S. and the EU on some 40 different public policy areas, including intellectual property rights, developing security standards for international trade, getting U.S. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Practices) recognized in Europe, developing innovation and technology in health industries, implementing RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technologies, developing a science-based plan on bio-based products and establishing a "regular dialogue" to address obstacles to investment. At a joint press conference, Bush thanked the other two leaders for signing the "trans-Atlantic economic integration plan," commenting that, "It is a recognition that the closer that the United States and the EU become, the better off our people will be." Barroso said the Transatlantic Economic Council is meant to be "a permanent body, with senior people on both sides of the Atlantic." As WND has reported, Secretary of Commerce Carlos Gutierrez repeatedly has pushed for North American integration, much as the April 30 agreement proposes closer U.S.-EU integration. Mexico's ambassador to the U.N., Enrique Berruga, has called for a North American Union to be created in the next eight years. But the Bush administration's push for North American integration is facing increasing opposition within Congress. WND reported Rep. Virgil Goode, R-Va., has introduced House Concurrent Resolution 40, which opposes the administration's Security and Prosperity Partnership, blocks a NAFTA Superhighway System and expresses opposition to the U.S. entry into a North American Union with Mexico and Canada. WND also has reported a movement led by Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum has led to an increasing number of state legislatures proposing resolutions opposing a North American Union. | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | 2010- An Interesting List (May 2, 2007) - It seems to me that more and more myself and others are hearing the year 2010 in conjunction with quite a few UN programs, global initiatives, EU programs, national ID’s, etc. So, instead of an actual commentary, I thought I would just combine some that I’ve heard and researched into one big list and let you research it for yourselves.
These are just a fraction of what I’ve come across, and I can’t remember where I’ve seen a lot of things. I was able to whip this list together in about 20 minutes. If you really read what these articles, agreements, etc. are saying, you start to see the big picture. This is by no means a complete list.

First, our right to natural health care and supplements, which cuts into the mega billions of dollars in profit to the big pharmaceutical companies, see Tom DeWeese's recent column: "The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) has launched another sneak-attack, trying to regulate your health freedom into oblivion. Through FDA’s unholy partnerships with Big Pharma and the Codex Alimentarius Commission (an offshoot of the UN), we are very close to losing alternative health care in America. This is a crisis, and needs your immediate action." The loons behind this new world order nightmare where every aspect of our life is controlled, include water to be regulated! Think I'm blowing some conspiracy junk? "The website noted that among likely developments if the FDA has its way: Growing and selling common garden herbs will get you arrested as a drug dealer. Massage oils and handheld massagers will be regulated as "medical devices." Vegetable juice will be regulated as a drug. Weight machines will be regulated as "medical devices" and require FDA approval before being sold or used. Raw sprouts and other anti-cancer foods will be regulated as drugs. Bottled water that "treats" dehydration will be regulated as a drug....." Read the rest of this factual column here. Anyone who has done even a minimal amount of research is fully aware that the FDA is nothing more than a pimping operation for the big pharma houses.

Only 15 out of the EU’s 27 nations are included in the programme that permits people to enter the US without having to apply for a visa. EU officials have long insisted visa waiver deals must be fully reciprocal, but US officials argue Greece and most of the new EU members still fail to meet all the criteria necessary for joining the scheme. “Citizens of 12 EU member states still need a visa, even for short stays. The EU presidency is forcefully speaking to ensure that in future all EU citizens are included in visa waiver programme,” German Deputy Foreign Minister Guenther Gloser, whose country holds the rotating six-month EU presidency, told the European Parliament in Strasbourg ahead of the April 30 EU-US summit in Washington. “There should be no split in the EU as to who has the right to travel to the United States without a visa. All member states should be treated equally,” Gloser said. | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | Eurocrat empire building (March 28, 2007) - On Sunday, the European Union celebrated its 50th anniversary. The EU was established on March 25, 1957, when its six founding states (Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg) signed the Treaty of Rome. They solemnly declared that they would aim for "an ever closer union." As a first step towards the goal of political unification the six states decided to integrate their economies. They have meanwhile been joined by 21 other European countries, Economic activities, however, cannot result in achieving a predetermined political goal without strict economic controls and centralist planning. The controlling and planning body of the EU is the European Commission, based in Brussels. The commissioners are not elected and are accountable to no one. This deliberate democratic deficit was built in as a structural feature of the EU. An unelected and unaccountable structure makes it easier to impose centrally driven change on a society. Some of the EU's founding fathers claimed that political unification was needed to prevent European nations from going to war again. Others, such as Paul-Henri Spaak, the Belgian foreign minister who authored the Rome treaty, dreamed of a European superstate. He hoped that such a state might one day become as powerful as the United States. Robert Rothschild, Mr. Spaak's chef de cabinet, recalled later how Mr. Spaak told him in 1957: "I think we have re-established the Roman Empire without a single shot being fired." Washington foolishly supported the European unification project. It failed to see that democratization and decentralization are far more likely to preserve peace than unification and centralization. Washington also thought that without the gradual obliteration of the former European nation-states the Europeans were bound to wage war on each other again. America became the EU's midwife. "Without the Americans we would not have gotten anywhere," Mr. Rothschild acknowledged. Empires, however, are carnivorous monsters. They have to keep growing in order to avoid unraveling. Hence, they inevitably grow ever more totalitarian and expansionist. The EU is interfering more and more in the daily lives of its subjects. At the same time, its territory continues to expand, from the original six members to the present 27. By definition, there is no end to this process. The Leviathan has to be fed. With the accession of Romania and Bulgaria on Jan. 1, the EU's territory has reached the outer boundaries of the European continent. Since the European Empire by definition has to expand, it has to move into Asia and Africa. The preparation for this crossing of the Rubicon -- in this case the crossing of the Strait of Gibraltar and the Bosporus -- has been going on for years. Five years ago, Louis Michel, then the Belgian minister of foreign affairs and at present a member of the European Commission, told the Belgian parliament that eventually the EU will encompass the entire Mediterranean basin, including North Africa and the Middle East. Mr. Michel also posited that only by incorporating both Israel and Palestine into the EU will there be peace between them. The European-Mediterranean ("Euro-Med") partnership between the EU and the countries of the Maghreb (an Arab word meaning "the West" and denoting Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya -- the North African Muslim countries to the west of Egypt) was established specifically to promote the economic, cultural and political integration of the EU and the Maghreb countries. The Brussels bureaucrats embrace Islam because they want the EU to expand into the Muslim east and south. They think that eventually the Maghreb will become part of Europe, but many ordinary Europeans fear that Europe is on its way to becoming the Maghreb, the Muslim "West." more... | EU/UN / 4th Kingdom | Their New America Is Not America (February 27, 2007) - We the people have no representation. No one stands for the liberty of the people – no one – and no presidential contender will save our rights, our land, our liberty, or Constitution. Therefore, let us begin on the most negative of notes. We the people are now told whom to believe, what to believe, how to live, what to worship, how to work, and to follow all the new codes for behaviors, opinions, and actions. We the people are, in fact, animals with no rights whatsoever. However, we, like teenagers, are not inclined to dictatorship in spite of the fact that we are addicted to people to tell us what to do. It’s easier than thinking, after all. I had the pleasure of meeting a 17-year-old boy in a bakery who told me he wanted to be an electrician. He said he didn’t want to go to college, and I told him I thought he was very smart. I told him that should he attend a university, he would come out a changed person who would, no doubt, betray his nation and freedom. I realized I had challenged his view of reality with my opinions, and so we discussed high school. I asked him if he had “multicultural” acceptance studies. He stated he hadn't had such studies since the Third Grade. I asked him if he had homosexuality acceptance class, and he told me he had also received such on-going instruction since the Sixth Grade. I asked him if he had studied the American Constitution and Declaration of Independence, and he stated, “I had it once in Ninth Grade.” I asked him if he could name one of his Constitutional rights, and he responded, “Maybe the right to vote?” I asked him if he could name one of the Amendments, and he stated, and I quote, “I don’t think I had that in school.” He was a good boy, and a smart boy. He told me about the day he had to give a speech about Rap music, and that he earned an A grade for his speech. He told me about his basketball and soccer injuries and about his girlfriend. I wished him luck as an electrician, and upon leaving, I asked him if he was free as an American citizen. He said, “I’m not really sure…” And once again, I was struck by the power of those who tell us what to do and how to think, even to the point of being unsure if we should think for ourselves or even how to think for ourselves. I write to you today while watching C-SPAN and listening to many, many highly educated people. On and on they talk at the cameras – telling viewers what they are doing on our behalf, what we need, and how we are supposed to think and feel. On and on, they dictate the rhymes and reasons for their New America and the purposes for our new morality codes. The New American leaders are Communitarians. They don’t believe in life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness. They don’t believe in freedom or individual efforts or individual accomplishments. They don’t believe in private property for the masses. They don’t believe in mobility for the masses, choice for the masses, or wealth for the masses. Rather, they believe in corporate wealth and dictatorship in unison and threaded together in “community” partnership bureaucracies. They believe in great wealth for the very few and great servitude in and for poor and struggling “communities” of like kinds. They believe in obedience, highly limited reproductive rights, and in voluntary services of many makes and measures. They believe in regulations, licensing, chipping, ID cards, spying technologies in homes, workplaces, and automobiles, and they believe in military control upon the homeland. In essence, they believe in terrorism as a rule of thumb and a moral-political code. more... | NewWorldOrder | America | EU And US To Begin Single Market Push (March 19, 2007) - The European Union and the US will next month start an ambitious initiative to harmonise regulations, norms and technical standards in up to 40 economic and industrial sectors, laying the cornerstone for a single market between the two regions. The pledge is the central item in the draft agenda of the April 30 EU-US summit in Washington, a senior German government official told the Financial Times. The summit will mark the official launch of German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s initiative for a transatlantic economic partnership which aims to abolish non-tariff barriers to trade and investment between the world’s two richest regions. Although the summit will only mark the start of the initiative, negotiators are hopeful that they can sign a long-delayed “open sky” agreement, which would create a unified civil aviation market between the two regions. The three dozen other sectors to be given priority range from the automotive industry, where regulatory incompatibilities are responsible for 10 per cent of the cost of developing and producing new cars, to biofuels and renewable energies. “India, China and others are setting us a new competitive challenge. They will continue to do so and develop their own know-how,” Ms Merkel told an EU-US conference in Berlin yesterday. “This is why we must join forces . . . Whoever sets the norms today will secure the markets of tomorrow.” Ms Merkel, who has sought to mend Germany’s frayed relationship with Washington since entering office 18 months ago, has put the transatlantic economic partnership high on the list of priorities for Berlin’s presidency of the EU, which ends in June. The April summit will also identify “lighthouse” pro-jects where negotiators think harmonisation can be achieved over the next 12 months, or which would bring fast and tangible benefits to consumers. more... | EU/UN | 4th Kingdom | NewWorldOrder | America | Economic Outlook & Predictions Coast to Coast AM (March 14, 2007) - During the first two hours, financial analyst Mish Shedlock outlined a possible downward spiral of the economy, led by the current implosion of many subprime lenders (mortgage companies that offer risky loans). There could be as many as two million home foreclosures this year, many by people who took out interest-only loans, with no money down. This will likely set off an economic slowdown and recession, he said. Housing prices, especially in "bubble" areas such as Florida and California, could fall quite a bit, dropping down to levels they were at five years ago, said Shedlock, who advised consumers to reduce debt and live within their means. Christian belief a 'hate crime' under plan (March 3, 2007) - Americans worried about new "hate crime" legislation that could be used to make criminals of those whose religious faith doesn't endorse homosexuality could be facing a two-pronged attack, according to groups that monitor those developments. The newest threat is being prepared by U.S. Rep. John Conyers, the head of the House Judiciary Committee, whose work is being called "The Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2007," according to the Rev. Ted Pike, of the National Prayer Network. He said a letter to other members of the House was intercepted by Focus on the Family and indicated that it "gives the federal government even more power to create a bias motivation justice system, turning America into a police state." Michael Marcavage, director of Repent America and Pike both had alerted their constituencies earlier to H.R. 254, or the David Ray Hate Crimes Prevention Act, which could create "anti-hate" restrictions and penalties. Marcavage told WND that plan would invert American justice, and instead of requiring evidence it would leave it to someone who claims to be offended to determine whether a "crime" has been committed. "Truth is not allowed as evidence in hate crimes trials. … A homosexual can claim emotional damage from hearing Scripture that describes his lifestyle as an abomination. He can press charges against the pastor or broadcaster who merely reads the Bible in public. The 'hater' can be fined thousands of dollars and even imprisoned!" Marcavage said. So there immediately was a flood of calls to Congress with opposition to H.R. 254 and it appeared that the plan might not make it out of committee. In fact, records show it still is pending in the House Judiciary Committee. But Pike is says the danger is far from over. "I think H.R. 254 may be a decoy, designed to absorb the bulk of protest from Christians and conservatives. Because of massive protest, it may be voted down or set aside in Judiciary soon. But Conyers will then substitute the bill that's really wanted by the Anti-Defamation league of B'nai B'rith, architect of this legislation," Pike said. "Conyers could reintroduce this bill very soon. Since Nancy Pelosi and the House Rules Committee can speed any bill forward for a House vote, even bypassing Judiciary altogether, Conyers and Pelosi could almost immediately put LLEHCPA at the head of the docket and up for a vote in the House," he said. Pike said the same plan passed the House in 2005, but not the Senate. This year, "buttressed by a host of co-sponsors and virtually untainted by criticism, it could be sped forward," he said. more... | America | NewWorldOrder | First Shots in a War on Fundamentalism?

CNN, BBC 24 Reports Conclusively Prove Media Prior Knowledge and False-Start Scripting of Building 7 Controlled Demolition (February 27, 2007) - It has now been discovered that BBC 24 also reported the Building 7 collapse before it fell. Furthermore, CNN’s Aaron Brown reported that Building 7 "has collapsed or is collapsing" over an hour before it fell. These clips both reinforce the shocking, newly discovered BBC coverage wherein Jane Standley reports the collapse early-- with the building still standing behind her. The early timing of these reports is now verified twiceover-- the BBC 24 report is time stamped at 21.54-- or 4:54 P.M. Eastern Standard Time [See World Time Zones] Secondly, CNN's Aaron Brown states the time as "4:15 Eastern Daylight Time," announcing Building 7 has fallen-- more than one hour before its actual collapse. Furthermore, both the BBC report with Jane Standley and the CNN report with Aaron Brown clearly show Building 7 still standing, 'billowing with smoke' as the collapse is reported-- so premature reporting is confirmed visually as well. There is no longer any doubt they were all reading off the same script. Reports mirrored testimony of scores of fire fighters, police and emergency workers who were told to get back from the building in the 2 hours before Salomon Brothers building (better known as WTC 7) fell at free-fall speed. Rescue workers were told the building was to be brought down in a controlled demolition. The group that carried out the demolition of Building 7 was in a position to feed the media and local authorities an official story.

WARNING: THE END OF AMERICA AS WE KNOW IT IS AT HAND (February 5, 2007) - The Patriot's Preamble "Let it be known far and wide that American Patriots will come together in the year 2007, to unite the citizens and statesmen of the Republic of the United States of America. They will gather with the purpose of maintaining our nation's sovereignty, to reinstate our Constitutional and Natural Rights, and to free the American people from institutional servitude. They will come to pursue this course with Honor, Dignity, and Courage, while acknowledging that unless God keeps our nation and guides her steps, we will have labored in vain." The United States of America and its citizenry has been assessed, warned, plotted against, and sold out by internationalists in government, business, and the banking industry. Its workforce has been decimated, its standard of living shredded and its working people made financial slaves through unjust taxation, socialist government practices, rules and regulations at all levels in society that would make any communist dictator grin with envy. Our role as partners in governmental affairs has been reduced to a whisper that is not heard by any elected official anywhere—with very, very few exceptions. Our representative government has become 535 regional dictators who live a life of luxury, self-importance and as arrogant master over the populace. The congress of the United States has carefully exempted itself from virtually all repressive laws they choose not to adhere to and have given themselves retirement pensions, health care and other perks, the rest of us can only dream of. They have become the Duma (Soviet Parliament) types who exemplify nothing other than crass selfishness at the expense of every American working citizen. The Bush Administration has been pursuing a blending of Canada, America and Mexico into the “North American Union.” They have done it under the cover of governmental darkness. They have been running a race as to how fast they can manipulate our great nation into a “no going back” strategic position with these other two nations. The president and his cabal of sell-out White House/Congressional turncoats have intentionally kept the American people in a state of confusion (war on terror, etc.) so that organized resistance to this national sovereignty killing plan can not be formulated.

Official notes taken on a session on "Border Infrastructure and Continental Prosperity" at the North American Forum in Banff, Canada, last September, reveal the internal debate over continued secrecy. "While a vision is appealing, working on the infrastructure might yield more benefit and bring more people on board ('evolution by stealth')," record the notes discovered amid documents obtained by Judicial Watch. Several speakers at the event emphasized the importance of "deepening economic integration," "integrating the energy infrastructure" and "the development of new institutions" between the three North American nations. Participants promoted the idea of using popular issues, such as concern over climate change, to push integration of energy and environmental governance and the possibility of imposing a carbon tax. Judicial Watch released yesterday the documents it received in a FOIA request from the U.S. Northern Command, whose commander, Admiral Timothy Keating, participated in the conference along with Northcom political adviser Deborah Bolton and Plans, Policy and Strategy Director Maj. General Mark Volcheff. A similar request concerning participation in the North American Forum meeting by former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is still pending. more... | NewWorldOrder | America | Anti-Semitism and unholy alliance Western leftists, Islamists have nothing in common except disdain for Israel (January 21, 2007) - This past week the United States celebrates the rich moral and political legacy of Martin Luther King. I am reminded of one of his powerful messages. He claimed that history will view the actions as well as the inactions of individuals. He powerfully asserted that every action has an effect, while every non-action has equally powerful repercussions. King was not especially concerned with the actions of the few bad people in society, but was troubled by the inaction of the vast majority of good and decent people. Given the recent state of affairs with regard to global anti-Semitism, King’s message is relevant today. It feels as if the recent Holocaust denial conference held in Tehran during December is but a distant memory, as the news cycle on the globalized information highway has changed so many times it seems like a distant bad dream. Unfortunately, it is not. The global social movement of extreme Islamists continues to work towards one of its main goals, the de-legitimatization of Israel so to bring about its destruction, while also aiming to usurp the global order and replace regimes throughout Islamic societies. While this theocratic social movement carries on with its clearly articulated genocidal objectives, Western human rights advocates and progressives, especially in Western Europe, remain largely silent. How is it that social democratic intellectuals and progressives are voiceless in the face of theocratic, homophobic, sexist, anti-democratic racists, who make unequivocal public genocidal statements, backed up with actions consistent with this goal on the ground? Among much of the West’s chattering classes Israel has been criticized in a disproportionate manner for decades. The rhetorical and ideological blinders have made it difficult for some on the Left, mainly in Europe, to assess the current situation in a coherent manner. This while levels of anti-Semitism increase significantly throughout much of Europe. British Jews, for example, are four times more likely to be attacked then Muslims, even though Islamophobia is also on the rise. Much of the expression of the extreme Left in the UK and in Western Europe focuses on portraying Israel as some sort of omnipresent power that mysteriously holds sway over western governments, namely – though not limited to - Washington. This demonization utilizes classical anti-Semitic tropes, accusing Jewish citizens of dual loyalty. This form of dehumanizing stereotype played a key role in the devastating violence and dislocation of European Jewry historically. more... | Islam | Israel | EU/UN | NewWorldOrder | America | Is it any wonder that the future head of the world will turn, along with the rest of the Western nations, against Israel? The dislike is there and you can see the clear bias in favor of Islam. I don't know if it's out of fear of Islam's power or if it's because they really are on the same page and influenced by the same spirit of hatred. Given the future of the world and their attitude toward God and His chosen people, Jew and Gentile, I'd guess they follow the same spirit. Merkel calls for EU constitution by 2009 (January 17, 2007) - German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday outlined an ambitious program for her country's European Union presidency, saying the bloc must set a timetable for adopting an EU constitution. Merkel told EU lawmakers during her first appearance at the EU assembly that a decision on what to do with the constitution must be reached by June. The constitution was ratified by 18 states but rejected in Dutch and French referendums in 2005. Merkel said she would consult all 27 EU nations to hear their reservations about the landmark charter and to determine which parts can be rescued to form the basis of a new document. Germany wants to save as much as possible of the draft text, which was designed to accelerate policy-making and give the EU, now with 489 million people, more visibility on the world stage by creating the posts of EU president and foreign minister. "We need a foreign minister for Europe. That's enough of a reason to adopt a constitutional treaty," Merkel told the European Parliament, earning a standing ovation. "We must give a soul to Europe; we have to find Europe's soul. Any failure could be a historic failure." Merkel also said that completing global trade talks would be one of the priorities of Germany's six-month presidency, urging Europe to take a "resolute stand" to achieve a successful outcome. more... | EU/UN | Solana | NewWorldOrder | Interesting how the language is spiritual speaking about the foreign minister position. Everyone seems to be in agreement about this too. 2009 hits an interesting time as well if we really are in the 70th week of Daniel. That would be the year of the abomination of desolation. As Herb Peters pointed out, is that an accident given the rumors of Solana leaving back in October? It seems to the European leaders like their whole world is starting to crumble without a "Mr. Europe." Is Solana making a power play? And will we see the European leaders give their power to him? Keep watching! Madrid: Fifteen Years Later Herb L. Peters (January 12, 2007) - What follows is a speech given at the recent Madrid+15 Conference. If you read carefully, and if you understand the underlying political mechanisms and realities, you will find all the necessary elements in place for the beginning of Daniel's 70th week. And, you will hear it coming from someone other than me. In fact, you will actually hear it coming from a primary source. What we have is a formally signed, legally binding covenant with many -- the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership for Peace (Euromed) -- that was established between the EU and Israel in November 20, 1995. Israel's Euromed Association Agreement entered into force on June 1, 2000, only four days before the 10-nation Western European Union's adoption of Recommendation 666. Israel's European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) Action Plan was adopted April 11, 2004. Although not legally binding, Israel's continuing cooperation to her ENP Action Plan is the basis for future continuing participation in all ENP benefits. As of January 1, 2007, the "New" ENP began and will span a seven-year period. At the EU's December European Council, the EU's Javier Solana, the author of both the Euromed and the ENP, received his unofficial seat within the Commission to oversee the ENP. At the same summit, Solana was given his official EU mandate to carry the Middle East peace process foreword. As of January 1, the New ENP has greatly increased benefits for all participating Mediterranean partners. But, it also has substantially increased political requirements -- one of which is to make peace with fellow Euromed partners. Included in this mix is the UN's new Alliance of Civilizations (AoC). The AoC provides the forum whereby the so-called "dialogue of cultures and civilizations" can be performed. If approved by the Security Council, the AoC will also provide a vehicle from where a religious war, exactly as the one foretold in Bible prophecy, can be -- as of 2010 -- effectively waged. As you read the speech that follows, please consider all the things, since way back in February 2002, that I've been reporting and saying. -Herb more... | EU/UN | NewWorldOrder | EU protocol chief sheds light on Brussels' dance of diplomacy (January 12, 2007) - The days when King Henry VIII met King Francis I in a field full of cloth of gold are gone but VIPs still have big egos, with the EU's protocol chief telling EUobserver about the intricate hierarchy of the family photo, the "paranoia" of US delegations and which EU leader has the firmest handshake. "Protocol is about respecting the dignity of the visitor and making sure everything goes smoothly, that there is no unplanned interference," 64-year old Austrian Hans Brunmayr, who has been welcoming VIPs at the EU's headquarters in Brussels for five years, explained. Looking at the picture of the 27 EU leaders taken at the end of the December summit - the "family photo" - it is clear the host, the then Finnish EU presidency is in the middle. But it is less clear why Finland is flanked by France and Poland or why EU top diplomat Javier Solana is hanging around on the front row. The answer is an occult system of diplomatic values which assumes that: the closer you stand to the current EU presidency the more important you are; the second most important figure is the next incoming EU presidency and a national president is always more important than a prime minister. The system, which runs all the way to the Austrian PM in the worst place on the second row (EU presidency in 2019) and the foreign ministers stuffed in the back rows, is so complex that Mr. Brunmayr has to stick little flags with names on them to the floor so that people know where to stand. Meanwhile, Mr. Solana is the joker in the pack and can appear anywhere in a situation that mirrors his office - formally there is no such thing as an EU foreign minister but he does the job anyway. "Solana is always in the front row either here or there," Mr. Brunmayr said. "He is granted a special status." more... | EU/UN | Solana | NewWorldOrder | PART TWO: Behind The Veil In Washington DC -- The Rise Of Angelic Rule (January 9, 2007) - Years ago I remember watching when for the first time in history Catholic authorities allowed network television to broadcast an exorcism. Permission was given to ABC’s "20/20" to cover the event, and on April 5, 1991 the ritual was televised. The extraordinary moment was a first for network programming, yet something about the show caused my thoughts to wander. In the past I had been involved with cases of exorcism (on two published accounts I and others actually witnessed ‘existence manifestations’ outside our understanding of physics), but now I questioned if perhaps we were missing something bigger—a comparison between what leads to individual demonic possession and a wider cultural phenomenon known in fashionable theology as "geographical demonic strongholds." I soon began to question that if personal behavior was one route to opening doors to diabolical invasion on an individual level, might nations similarly come under siege to a larger "hive" of nefarious power through collective behavioral or gestured invitation to evil by those having geopolitical authority? Most adults are aware that if people who preside over legislative bodies sense public apathy, they may abandon their responsibility to govern for the good of the people and in worse case scenarios begin using their positions in power for their own elitist or even occultist aspirations. If this is allowed to continue via the public and/or lawmakers turning a blind eye, the result can be, according to demonology and select case studies, the regional increase of evil supernaturalism. To some believers, the origins of this phenomenon began in the distant past when "a fire in the minds" of angels caused Lucifer to exalt himself above the good of God’s Creation. The once glorified spirit was driven by an unequivocal thirst to rule, conquer, and dominate. His fall spawned similar lust among his followers, which continues today among human agents of dark power who guard a privileged "cause and effect" relationship between invasion of supernaturalism and the opportunity for lordship over societies. The objectives of the occult masters and the very real forces they serve is overlooked by average citizens, yet according to sacred texts a collaboration exists between such unregenerate social architects and fallen angels. If the electorate becomes bewitched of this truth, humans in league with demons can increase their control of the machine of municipal government through sophisticated networks of both visible and invisible principalities. This happens subconsciously or intentionally among those vulnerable to the sinister dark plan. In 1954, William Guy Carr, a distinguished Canadian naval officer claimed that a conspiracy for world domination had been spelled out in a private letter from Pike to the director of the Illuminati, Giuseppe Mazzini. The letter detailed three world wars that would be machinated by the global occult elite, leading to the demise of Christianity and to the rise of Luciferianism. "On August 15, 1871, Pike told Mazzini that after World War Three is ended, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. We quote his written words (taken from the letter catalogued in the British Museum Library, London, Eng.): "‘We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass (direction), anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time’" (3). more... | NewWorldOrder | 2 Thessalonians 2:7-12 "For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."

Pope Urges Need for 'Renewed Humanism'
(January 5, 2007)
- Religious leaders of all faiths must play a role in
ensuring that the spiritual and cultural aspects of life
are not forgotten as mankind tackles the challenges of
globalization,
Pope Benedict XVI said
Saturday. In his homily during Mass in
St. Peter's Basilica, the
pope said recent decades have seen a "challenge to global
civilization, where the center can no longer be Europe and
not even that which we call the West or the North of the
world." "The need emerged to elaborate a
new world political and economic order, but at the same
time and above all, a spiritual and cultural one _ that
is, renewed humanism," he said. "At the
start of the Third Millennium we find ourselves smack in
the middle of this phase of human history, that has been
for some time dubbed 'globalization.'" The pope said that
while politicians, scientists and researchers play
important roles in the modern world, "today,
more than ever, it is necessary to place at their side the
leaders of the great non-Christian religious traditions"
as well as Christian leaders.
Benedict appeared to be
building on a theme often stressed by his predecessor,
John Paul II, who worried
that modernization was coming at the cost of
spirituality. more... The UN Plan for Your Mental Health Crossroad.to (1999) - by Berit Kjos
Don't be deceived by nice sounding labels such as Healthy Start, Healthy People, Healthy Families, Healthy Communities, and Healthy Cities. These and other "local" campaigns for public and mental health follow a global blueprint. They all fit into a worldwide system of health management and surveillance led by the World Health Organization, a UN special agency that equates faith with hate and truth with intolerance.1 The goal is conditioning the masses to willingly conform to new "universal" values, environmental guidelines, and a global management system. Dr. David Satcher, U.S. Surgeon-General and Assistant Secretary for Health, gave a progress report at a National Healthy People Consortium in November 1998 "We have a clear blueprint in place," he announced. "Currently, 47 states are actively involved in Healthy People 2000 and 'Healthy City and Healthy Community' initiatives are being pursued throughout the country. Hundreds of national organizations have reviewed the Year 2000 objectives and have adopted them as their own." Dr. Satcher then drew the connection between Healthy Start,2 Healthy People, mental health and the World Health Organization:
A NEW WAY OF THINKING In a 1996 speech at The National Children's Mental Health Initiative, Donna Shalala, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), said,
As head of the DHHS, Shalala helped organize The National Mental Health Services Knowledge Exchange Network (KEN). Ponder its definition for mental health:
Do you wonder what Dr. Shalala and her network of health planners would consider good thinking? Or bad thinking? This definition doesn't tell us. How do they want people "to look at themselves" or "explore choices"? The answer is clear when you study UNESCO's psycho-social strategies for conforming the minds of our children to its anti-Christian world view. But without background information, these ambiguous, open-ended phrases hide the true intentions. However, Dr. Shalala and other self-proclaimed "change agents" do tell us that the old ways "a person thinks, feels, and acts" must change. They don't fit the new global ideology or the consensus process. According to Professor Benjamin Bloom, called the Father of OBE, the new "purpose of education and the schools is to change the thoughts, feelings and actions of students."7 So it's not surprising that UNESCO's Commission on Culture and Development in its report, Our Creative Diversity, wrote that -
Referring to the management and monitoring of its education program, the Kansas State Board of Education made a similar statement, "QPA [Quality Performance Accreditation] is a process which demands new thinking, new strategies, new behavior, and new beliefs." "New beliefs" and "new thinking" are key to the global management system. Adults as well as children must trade truth, facts, and logical thinking for myths, UN values, and the consensus process. The masses must learn to see themselves, not as individuals, but as part of a greater whole: a group, a community, the planet. Finally, the United Nations is nearing its goal: to create a unified, socialist world made up of compliant world citizens ready to adapt to what Al Gore called "a wrenching transformation of society." THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO) In 1946, the first head of WHO laid the foundation for today's mental health program. Having implied that Christian parents indoctrinated "their defenseless children" with "poisonous certainties" that cause war and conflict, Canadian psychiatrist Brock Chisholm, added,
Half a century has passed since Dr. Chisholm called for UN controls that would abolish divisive Christian "certainties". Today, WHO commands an international networking agency that helps nations around the world change and monitor the ways their people think, choose, and act. Called Nations for Mental Health, it links each member state to the UN agenda and promises to steer each nation toward the UN goal:
To develop "the mental health of the population" and
to prevent dissent and conflict from blocking progress, everyone must
participate in the consensus process. Assessments for all -- young and
old -- will show who might be "at risk" of not meeting the new mental
standards for healthy communities. more... |

It
is many years now since I coined the term 'The Totalitarian Tiptoe'
for the technique of step-by-step changes leading to a long-planned
goal. Each step is promoted as unconnected to all the others when in
fact they are fundamentally connected and all lead in the same
direction - centralised control. The idea of the Totalitarian Tiptoe
is to diffuse the opposition there would be if they went from A to Z
in one go. The change would be so great that heads would lift and eyes
would open to ask the question: 'What's going on?' By taking baby
steps, each change is sold as small and insignificant while the Shadow
People orchestrate the steps to become, taken together, giant strides
of change and imposition. There is no better example of this than the
European Union and this week came another blatant example of the
technique. This is also relevant to readers in the Americas, Asia,
Africa and Australia-New Zealand because the same is happening there
by the day. The European Union is only the precursor to four
superstates that are being tiptoed into place. The others are the
American Union (the North American Union - The United States,
Canada and Mexico - is now secretly well advanced); the African Union;
and the Asia-Pacific Union. These are designed to be the second tier
of global control under a world government. If the manipulators had
come clean and told the truth about these plans there would be have
been an outcry decades ago. They knew this and so it has all been done
on the sly, step by step. The major politicians of all major parties
say one thing in public while pursuing a very different path behind
the scenes. The most important public face of Britain's entry into the
European Community/Union was the child abuser and Conservative Party
Prime Minister, Edward Heath, who signed the treaty of membership in
1972. He told the people that the then European Economic Community, or
EEC, was just a free trade zone and not planned to be a
centrally-controlled United States of Europe. But while Heath was
saying 'it's only about free trade', a Foreign Office memo in 1971
warned: '... the Community is a process of fundamental political
importance implying progressive development towards a political
union'. This memo was suppressed for 30 years. In
fact, Heath was agreeing to British political union with Europe as far
back as April 1962 when he was Lord Privy Seal in the Conservative
government of Harold Macmillan. He told the Ministerial Council of the
Western European Union that '... you have decided that those who join
the Economic Communities as full members must also join the Political
Union. I am sure that this was the right decision' (Command Paper
1720). more...
