The common problem with me, Eric Rainbolt, and Jack Blood, and Alex Jones, and Henry Makow, and David Icke, and Jeff Rense, and John Kaminski and a vast collection of others including all those outspoken during these times or who might be reading this missive is that we are just too smart - or often said with some exaggeration by many of us: 'awake'.
There certainly may be many others out there who are 'aware' of the ruling class elites, or think they are, but through obedience to the lies of the controlled media, remain casually quiet.
Our ever expanding group, however, remain dedicated to highlighting the truth of these many important matters; as we are smart enough to know what these crimes and abuses will lead to for others and today's children - a version of tyranny that could make George Orwell's nightmare vision in his book '1984' seem tame in comparison. Real enslavement and bloodshed vs. fictional enslavement and bloodshed - naturally which is worse? Alex Jones of gcnlive.com radio displays the current onset of this well in his new freely distributable film "911 - Martial Law The Rise of the Police State". The truths disclosed in this film make the baseball cap toting Michael Moore, of Fahrenheit 911 fame, seem on the same level as an employee of the Bush ranch.
The constitutional patriarch Thomas Jefferson seemed to have summed it up best from his experiences during his lifetime: " Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to accidental opinion of the day; but a Series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and persued unalterably through every change of ministers (administrations) plainly PROVES a deliberate, systematic plan of reducing us to slavery. "
Our pure minds seek not power, but true beneficial freedom; hoping to receive mutual support and emacipation by those seeking the same. Our lights are sufficiently bright enough upstairs that it yearns to peer through the darkness around us. We are each naturally intellectually competitive, yet *true* unchained intellect has been mass diagnosed as a modern day thought crime. We are viewed by the herd as the 'free *radicals*'.
Perhaps, previously beyond our own capacity to understand a simple yet outrageous truth to most of us, and simply put, the masses kindly accept being lied to as long as they are told they are 'brave' and 'free'. The proof of this appears found right in the pudding. However, allowing oneself to be lied to is also viewed as not being morally upright, so we are all endlessly caught in this inescapable paradox. The herd won't all simultaneously stand up and admit we have all been lied to repetitively by a corrupted government, a small group of unrepentant war propagandists, and their elite criminal controllers who own the nation's for-profit central bank - and it all appears endless.
I have come to the advanced conclusion that that all of us around the world were all born into a gigantic zoo, or perhaps more accurately stated - a slave planet. However, the average person is just bright enough to know they should not like being recognized as a slave, but compromise in full with being lied to and told they are free. As soon as they are conditioned and acclimated and >told
The People are also easily pacified by the temporary illusion of prosperity and controlled entirely through our innate tendency towards greed. Like cattle, some of us are occasionally starved, worse: dehydrated, shackled, or slaughtered for profit in wars by the pack, or 'cult', or 'occult', of slightly more intelligent established liars and criminals. Predictably, over time the herd progresses to forget events such as WW I, Pearl Harbor, WW II, JFK, WACO, OKC, and 911, like just some blood washed down the river and out of sight; and the cycle has only repeated with greater deception and voracity.
My personal conclusion after reviewing all the evidence that life here has to offer is that God the Father in Heaven truly does exist. He is glorified more in this situation. He can more rightfully identify the smart and dumb ones, and subdivide each set amongst the good and bad ones: the hateful ones - and the loving ones; the ungiving ones - and the generous ones - more easily when He doesn't directly interfere in the whole process. He simply lets the forces of good and evil ingrained in people's souls carry out all the work along the way. God remains sinless. Good souls are further nurtured and given more light until they are ready to be 'picked', and the bad ones are inevitably thrown into the proverbial fire, or darkness or the void of iniquity. Love is the spiritual bonding force amongst souls in the eternal ethereal realm most of us have faith exists in the beyond after death.
So, if I could simplify it all in one sentence: Earth is God's soul farm, and God is the Farmer, and as Revelation states, soon He will send His Son Jesus back for the ultimate Harvest. I believe it! My faith has transcended into full acknowledgment.
In the smaller picture, I tend to agree with everything this witty writer has to say:
[ From http://www.fredoneverything.net ]
Now, any time I refer to the United States as a democracy, I get mail, from people vaguely remembering high-school civics, who tell me that the US is not a democracy but a constitutional republic. In fact is neither. A democracy is of course any governmental system in which ultimate power rests with the people; direct democracies, parliamentary democracies, and constitutional republics are all examples of democracy. In America, the people are nearly powerless, in large part without knowing it. The trick has been done by giving them furiously fought elections that don’t mean anything. This distracts them and gives them a sense of participation, while maintaining their proper role as consumers.
The United States is not the country it thinks it is. It moves fast toward a curious comfortable despotism. This is of course precisely what people want. A few observations:
America does not have a free press. The media are big business and speak for those who own big business. They lie and distort and always have. Now, however, they all lie and distort identically; here is the rub. Their function is to herd the sheep. The public knows only what it is allowed to know, except for the tiny few who go to the internet. “Political correctness” is not an annoying fad. It is a deadly serious means of preventing public discussion of things that those in power do not want discussed (for example, race, affirmative action, illegal immigration.)
In the words of the great political philosopher Fredwitz, democracy is communism continued by other means. Pretty much, anyway.
Though it may run counter to intuition, the press itself has little interest in freedom of the press; this is why freedom is so easily denied. Journalism is first a job. It is second a job with rich perquisites: A reporter travels abroad, attends exciting events, enjoys privileges unheard of among mere citizenry. It’s a racket. Only a cantankerous few would risk these wonders for the sake of telling the truth. They are soon weeded out.
The will of the people? Hardly. Americans do not determine any policy that matters. (E.g., regarding race, affirmative….) The techniques for guaranteeing an unnoticed helplessness are simple but brilliant. First, people are never permitted to vote for policies, but an only for one or another of two essentially identical presidential candidates who prate identically about Getting the Country Moving, and No Child Left Behind. The results determine not policy but patronage. Second, power is concentrated in remote anonymous bureaucracies, rendering policy impervious to attack. Third, there is the federal tactic of taxing the states and returning the money in exchange for obedience.
The people do not rule. Nor do they have freedoms inconvenient to the government. But then, they do not want freedom.
We are seeing I think that letting people govern themselves doesn’t work. I don’t say that it is undesirable, but merely impractical. (Letting them think they have power, however, is splendidly sensible, as it keeps them quiescent.) More succinctly, democracies aren’t stable. They tend toward well-fed dictatorship. Why? Because the bright, grasping, and conscienceless inevitably rise.
The people lack the intelligence to govern any entity larger than a very small town. Particularly in the United States they read little, think less, know almost nothing of history, geography, the nature and politics of the world beyond the borders. They are thus easily swayed, frightened, enraged, gulled, and led into dog-pack patriotism by those, far smarter and more aware, who understand the levers of power. They so quickly give up liberty to those who offer to protect them. They are eager to do it. Look around you.
I have seen it said that the national character of the United States safeguards the country against despotism. I doubt it. National character may exist at a given moment, but it is easily changed. A spirit of hardy independence, of “Don’t Tread On Me” and so on, cannot outlive the independence itself. America is no longer a nation of rifle-toting frontiersmen or self-sufficient farmers. It is a nation of employees. On average they are heavily indebted, imprisoned by the retirement system, unable to farm, fish, hunt, defend themselves, change their spark plugs or build a shelter. They cannot live without the state, which leaves…who in charge?
A curious phenomenon, of uncertain provenance though I have heard many theories, is the national promotion of psychic weakness as a virtue. Some of it surpasses parody. I see that teachers are eliminating red pencils for grading papers because the violence of the color might shock the sensibilities of the students. There is much of this. Presumably the effect, and perhaps the intention, is a cowering race of pitiable and self-pitying weaklings unable to withstand, well, much of anything. A red pencil, for example. Dreadful things, those pencils.
People want neither freedom nor democracy. They want a soothing mother domestically and an outlet, preferably overseas, for anger.
While political democracy does not exist, cultural democracy does. It can exist because it does not threaten those who govern. The common run of humanity has no interest in learning anything or in any sort of intellectual betterment. They resent anything they see as indicating superiority in others, though, and want assurance that, as kids used to say in Alabama, “you ain’t no gooder’n me.” The degradation of the schools serves to eliminate obvious distinction, improve docility, avoid unwanted study, and make people consumers of witless amusement provided from above, as for example terrible music and awful movies.
All of the foregoing I believe serve to make the public a somnolent mass paying taxes, buying things, and directing little attention to larger matters. The only freedoms most want are the freedom to drive nice cars, watch 300 channels on the cable, drink beer, and take an occasional vacation. Freedom matters to intellectuals. For most, prosperity suffices.
