The 4 July, American Independence Day..
An extract from the Declaration of Independence that we should all know off by heart, not only Americans but all people across the world, because it states important truths, in particular the lines highlighted..
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government..
Have a Great Independence day and mark what it meant then and make it mean something in the future..
Regards, Joe Bryant, Sydney, Australia.

How VeriChip Works and FEMA..
An implantable, 12mm by 2.1mm radio frequency device. It contains a unique verification number. Utilizing an external scanner, radio frequency energy passes through the skin energizing the dormant VeriChip, which then emits a radio frequency signal containing the verification number. The number is displayed by the scanner and transmitted to a secure data storage site by authorized personnel via telephone or Internet..[
These markers and signs are part of a civil disturbance control plan that will implement Emergency Executive Orders #11002 and #11004 to process, control and relocate populations and dissenters to detention camps, and prisons during a National Emergency..
What is being planned is a draconian *controlled* response to the unthinkable, purposely hidden from the eyes of the populace..
The Civil Defense of the 1950s and 60s marked designated buildings with signs and symbols on them identifying shelters in the event of a nuclear strike against the U.S.
There were also routes marked through cities as disaster corridors that led to these sites where civil defense officers would shuttle civilians to the safety of these relocation centers..
A very similar plan is in effect today, *disguised* under FEMA but with a new twist..
The following article by Carl Jensen outlines the detention policies of U.S. for citizens during a National Emergency..
A reference to road sign stickers is made under Operation Cable Splicer at a meeting with state officials in reference to emergencies in the new millennium..
CIVILIAN DETENTION CAMPS
By
Carl Jensen
It is extremely easy for us to say that the German people, for instance, even under the threat of physical violence, shouldn't have allowed their government to do what it did. But we of the United States, under no intimidating threats and with a long history of individual freedom, did not stop this forced evacuation which took place over a number of months and subjected many thousands of local citizens not only to bewilderment and misery of barren, crowded barracks but to large, permanent losses in the form of hard earned businesses and properties; sudden amputation of plans and hopes; disillusionment about their citizenship in America..
If we ask ourselves why we did not stop it, and listen to the reasons we start to put forth, perhaps we may understand why similar questions asked Germans about stopping Hitler are in reality too vague and inadequate to be helpful..
Knowing what those camps meant to people caught up in the event of the 1940’s, knowing the shame that afflicts the American people as we look back on the incarceration and dislocation of a people because of their race, [or political beliefs], we can only feel repugnance and fear at the fact that today we have locations available for another round-up [1970’s and again in 1999] and that we live under a law which would permit another mass detention of people without any proof that they had committed any illegal actions..

U.S. Detention Camps During WW II
The socialist experiment with detention camps began during the era of 1931 to 1948 in Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, and the United States..
Stalin exterminated 7 to 10 million people in civilian detention camps from 1931 to 1933, and another 10 million between 1934 and 1939..
Hitler opened Dachau on March 9, 1933, and Auschwitz in Poland in January, 1940. It has been determined that by the end of World War II as many as six million people died in Hitler's detention camps..
On August 24, 1939, the FBI Director, J. Edgar Hoover met with FDR to develop a detention camp program in the United States..
Some people today will remember the detention camps which were setup in the United States immediately after President Roosevelt declared war on Japan and formally entered World War II..
What many don't realize is that the Japanese were not the only people who were forced to go to these camps. Germans, Italians, and Mexicans were also sent to these camps during WW II..
It should be said that the camps in the United States were not the death camps which were so feared in Europe, yet these people were denied their Constitutional rights when the federal government forced them into the camps..
Immediately after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the government began discussions concerning what to do with aliens that were from countries that were now considered enemies of the United States..
There was an immediate call to evacuate the Japanese from the west-coast states of California, Oregon, Washington and the state of Hawaii..
Over the next two months, the public's attitude toward the Japanese rapidly deteriorated..
In February of 1942 the government began registering enemy aliens and large scale spot raids were conducted to seek out potential dissidents and evidence of espionage..
In the next four months the raids produced little in the way of proof that Japanese residents were plotting against the United States..
Due to the increasing anti Japanese sentiment unemployment among the Japanese soared, reports of personal attacks grew, desperately needy were denied relief funds, and the Japanese were refused licenses to operate businesses. They were also subjected to heavy travel restrictions..
By the middle of February 1942, it was decided to begin to evacuate all persons of Japanese lineage and all other aliens whose presence would be considered dangerous to the defense of the United States..
It was estimated that 100,000 enemy aliens would be involved in the evacuation. (NOTE: to this day the United States government still looks upon this forced evacuation as a voluntary evacuation.)
It should be said that there were people in the government and the military that thought that these evacuations were wrong and should not be instituted, but their objections were ignored. On February 19, 1942, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which ordered the evacuations to begin..
One month later on March 18, 1942, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9102 which established the War Relocation Authority..
It ordered the establishment of this agency in the Office of Emergency Management to manage the evacuation. The Authority quickly began planning the building of ten relocation camps that would house over 110,000 people..
The Quakers helped the Japanese in the days prior to their evacuation. They helped to pack the few possessions they were allowed to take with them. They also made arrangements to find storage facilities for their personal possessions which the Japanese left behind. The Quakers also assisted in selling businesses and homes which the Japanese were forced to leave behind, and they found ways to ensure that the Japanese would get their money..
The Quakers even attempted to provide protection for properties which were not sold. Their assistance did not stop there. They continued to maintain contact with the detainees in the camps as a means of counteracting the demoralization and fear which overcame many of the detainees..
Two of these camps which received trainloads of evacuees were located in Arizona. One was the Colorado River Relocation Center, which housed 18,000 people at its peak, and operated from April 1942 to March 1946. The other was the Gila River Relocation Center that held 13,000 people, and it was in operation from May 1942 to February 1946..
The government had set up the camps in block formations with each block having 14 barracks. Each barracks measuring 20 feet by 100 feet. Each block had one mess hall, one recreation center, laundry facilities, and separate men and women bathrooms. The camps also had cold warehouses, repair facilities, administration offices, schools, a library, facilities for religious services, medical facilities, and a post office. The detainees were allowed to have gardens and raise livestock..
One of the better known civilian detention camps during World War II, was at Crystal Lake, Texas..
News articles and a documentary were made detailing life at Crystal Lake..
The Crystal Lake camp has been referred to as a concentration camp, but it was not. The camp was occupied by people of Japanese and German decent, who had immigrated to the United States prior to the beginning of WW II..
After World War II, the detainees of these camps filed lawsuits, and brought grievances before Congress because of the violation of their civil rights, which these people had suffered because of these forced evacuations and detainment..
In 1988, President Reagan signed into law the Civil Liberties Act of 1988. The purpose of the law was to acknowledge and apologize for the wrongs done to these people that were forced to live in the detention camps. To date, restitution has been paid to approximately 80,000 Japanese-Americans, yet the federal government still considers the evacuations as voluntary..
The Detention Act of 1950
In 1950, Congress, concerned about communism, passed the Detention Act of 1950. The Detention Act of 1950 (the Act) can be found in the series of books called the Statutes at Large in any law library..
This law gave the government the capability to arrest and detain those people or groups which were deemed to be subversive and a threat to the government of the United States, and hold people in detention camps around the country..
As the concern over the conflict in Korea grew, Congress's anxiety over the existence of communist groups located in the United States also grew..
A survey was ordered to assess available confinement facilities in the United States..
The Department of Justice recommended that the camps located at Army and Airforce bases, and former prisoner-of-war camps, be made available to be used as detention camps. It was also determined that it would be more cost effective to repair existing camps than it would be to build new camps..
In 1952, Congress appropriated $775,000 for the activation and rehabilitation of six camps..
These six camps were located at..
Florence, Arizona; Wickenberg, Arizona; Avon Park, Florida; Allenwood, Pennsylvania; El Reno, Oklahoma; and Tule Lake, California..
After the Korean conflict ended, the need for these camps also ended. In 1959, Tule Lake Camp was turned over to the General Services Administration. Wickenberg Camp was turned over to the city. Avon Park Camp became the Avon Park Correctional Institution. Twenty acres of the Florence Camp became a Federal detention center for people serving short sentences. El Reno remained under the control of the Bureau of Prisons. Allenwood Camp is now used as a regular federal prison camp for minimum security prisoners..
By the end of the 1960’s, sixteen bills had been submitted to repeal the Act..
The public opinion was growing against the Act in that the public felt that the government could not be trusted to protect the civil rights of those people arrested under this law..
One portion of the Detention Act of 1950 which was the cause of great concern....
Sec. 103. (a) Whenever there shall be in existence such an emergency, the President, acting through the Attorney General, is hereby authorized to apprehend and by order detain, pursuant to the provisions of this title, each person as to whom there is reasonable ground to believe probably will engage in, or probably will conspire with others to engage in, acts of espionage or of sabotage..
The problem with the above section is that it violates the civil rights of those arrested. It is unacceptable to arrest someone on the suspicion that someday that person may break the law..
There were other short comings to the Act..
They included..
The implementation of the law required no further Congressional action, but simply a declaration by the President of a state of emergency..
Group affiliation could be a basis for detention, without necessarily any evidence as to individual behavior..
Confrontation of adverse witnesses and full knowledge of charges and evidence were effectively denied in order to protect the government's sources of information..
The only way to prove innocence would be the impossible task of guaranteeing future behavior..
Bail was not permitted..
The law provided no trial by jury but rather a series of administrative appeals after the fact of detention..
And, the penalty provided under the law is incarceration of an indefinite duration..
Though this law was never actually used, it caused a great deal of concern as when people around the country became aware of its dangers..
In the late 1960’s, minorities and particularly the Japanese community turned to Congress in an attempt to get the law repealed. It wasn't until 1970 that any real attention was given to repealing the Act..
The fear among many Americans was that this law might become an instrument for apprehending and detaining people that held unpopular beliefs and views..
On September 14, 1970, the Internal Security Committee held a hearing on the Act..
At the end of the hearings the committee reported that it had a bill which would not repeal the Act but would simply amend it..
This bill went nowhere because the 91st Congress adjourned before a ruling was granted. When the 92nd Congress reconvened, over 150 members of Congress supported an effort to have the Act repealed..
Since the Vietnam era the federal government has been focusing on ways to control civil unrest. Executive orders, Department of Defense Directives, and laws have been written addressing the issue of the military assisting in controlling civilian disturbances..
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been given greater and greater authority and power over these matters to such a degree that even minor civil disturbances today may come under the jurisdiction of FEMA..
In the early 1980’s, President Reagan, the Department of Defense (DOD), and FEMA began to change the role that FEMA would play in the security of the United States..
In 1983, it was recommended that FEMA expand its role to include survivability training, imposing martial law, controlling civil disturbances, and placing greater emphasis on protecting the country from foreign threats and domestic terrorism..
REX 84
(Readiness Exercise 1984)
In 1981, FEMA and the DOD began training exercises to test plans for civil mobilization, civil security, and counter-terrorism..
The REX 84 exercises were established under the premise that FEMA might have to detain a large number of refugees, crossing the Mexican/U.S. border in a mass exodus as a result of a war in Central America (remember the Iran-Contra Affair)..
REX 84 also provided for the closing of military bases around the country, of which some would then be turned into detention camps..
One of the ten military bases that were setup as detention camps, was Camp Krome in Florida. This camp was designated as a joint FEMA and Immigration Service interrogation center..
REX 84 coordinated 34 federal departments and agencies to conduct a civil readiness exercise during April 5 to 13, 1984..
In the combined exercise, REX 84 Bravo, FEMA and the Department of Defense led, among other agencies, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Secret Service, the Treasury, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Veterans Administration, through the exercise to test military preparedness in civil defense..
The training exercise included the use of the military to control civil disturbances, major demonstrations, and strikes, which would affect government operations and resource mobilization. It also included exercises in fighting terrorism, conducting large movements of the population, and imposing martial law..
Several months after REX 84 had been completed, it was suggested that Executive Order 11490 should be amended to give FEMA greater control in national emergencies. Serious concerns were raised over these amendments..
Some of the concerns included..
Objections to the creation of an emergency czar type of role in FEMA (this has happened today)..
The abandonment of the use of the several agency responsibility system..
The defining of severe emergencies to include routine law enforcement emergencies..
The absence of Presidential or Congressional authorization for unilateral FEMA Directives which would attempt to establish new federal government structures, etc. (Which is the case today)..
Operation Garden Plot..
Operation Garden Plot refers to federal military assistance given to local and state law enforcement agencies during times of civil disturbances to control the civilian population..
It was a spin off of Rex-84. This operation is also referred to as Oplan Garden Plot, Garden Plot, MACDIS (Military Assistance to Civil Disturbances), and Garden MACDIS..
This operation was first made public in the mid-1980’s..
The United States Civil Disturbance Plan 55-2, or Operation Garden Plot, is a direct support operation for the Army, Airforce, Navy, and Marines with airlift and logistic support to respond to civil disturbances. The airlift force will be composed of MAC organic airlift resources, aircraft from the USAF, air reconnaissance, and airborne psychological operations..
This operation will target people or groups the government considers disruptive elements..
It defines disruptive elements as resistance groups, tax protesters, right wing extremist groups, people who will be considered non-conformists, or people who simply protest governmental actions such as Martial Law..
Its activation will be deemed necessary when local or state authorities cannot maintain law and order..
Deadly force may be permitted against any group or person perpetrating what the Federal government will consider civil disorder..
Furthermore, Operation Garden Plot also provides for federal troops and the National Guard to combine their efforts with United Nation troops while conducting operations..
The cement that pulls all this together is Presidential Decision Directive 25 (PDD-25). Though PDD-25 is classified, an executive summary is available and discusses the relationship between the United States troops and the United Nations forces in operations here and abroad..
One such example for the use of Operation Garden Plot occurred on April 29, 1992. California experienced the worst riots since the 1960’s in Los Angeles. It began as a small disturbance and quickly accelerated into a full-blown riot that killed 44 people, injured hundreds of others, and cost close to one billion dollars in property damage. The riots were so overwhelming that the L.A. police in many instances would not attempt to stop the rioters. They left citizens to defend themselves and their property..
The governor of California directed the National Guard to mobilize and assist the local police. On May 1, 1992, President Bush signed Executive Order 12804, ordering federal troops in to assist the National Guard and local police..
The plan they followed was the Department of Defense Civil Disturbances Plan (Operation Garden Plot). The operation included such agencies as LAPD Emergency Operations Center, City Command, the Sheriff’s office, FBI, and the ATF..
Today, what could possibly happen in this country to activate such an operation? The federal government could initiate Operation Garden Plot if there were serious social unrest, political turmoil, or an economic disaster resulting in civil disturbances that local and state authorities could not control. Could Y2K be such an event?.
Today, under a state of national emergency the President, after declaring Marshal Law, would give FEMA the authority to take control of the internal infrastructure of the United States and suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights..
Congress would be prevented from conducting hearings over the actions of the President or FEMA, for six months or until the President lifted marshal law..
Today the Executive Order that establishes this authority is Executive Order 12919 (see Appendix), and combined today with DODD 3025.12, FEMA would be empowered to hold civilian detainees in detention centers..
They could also use the detainees as civilian labor which would be monitored by the Department of Defense, but supervised by the FBI. Also, FEMA's Federal Response Plan as amended in June of 1999 also makes mention of Operation Garden Plot..
It is estimated that there are between 160 to 190 detention (internment) facilities in the United States, each capable of housing between 10,000 to 300,000 civilians..
Most of these camps are located on active military bases, or closed military bases which have been converted to detention facilities..
Very few lists of such facilities are available to the general public, and with good reason...
It simply makes sense to keep these facilities secret in order to reduce the repercussions that would be experienced from such knowledge. The lists that can be found are vague, old, and incomplete. .
Photos do exist of detention camps at Camp Grayling in Grayling, Michigan; Fort Dix, New Jersey; and the Federal Transfer Center-Temporary Facility at Will Rogers Airport in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Miscellaneous pictures have been taken of other sites showing empty fields with ten foot fences topped with razor wire creating holding pens..
These sites also have stadium lighting and guard towers surrounding the sites..
The question that should be asked is who are these holding pens for, because cattle do not climb fences, and they don't need guard towers?.
Operation Cable Splicer
Operation Cable Splicer is a Department of Defense operation for the orderly take over of local and state governments..
The development of this operation had its start while President Ronald Reagan was governor of California. Governor Reagan enlisted the assistance of the head of the state's National Guard to put an operation together, which would assist the government during times of civil unrest..
This condition required the declaration of Martial Law. It's purpose was to legitimize the arrest and detainment of anti-war protesters and political troublemakers during the Vietnam era..
Initially the operation was presented to the public disguised as a program to protect against civil disturbances..
Its' stated purpose was to..
Keep the people from gathering in the streets..
Isolate and neutralize the revolution's leadership..
Disperse crowds and demonstrations..
and prosecution followed to....
Validate the action of the police..
Deny the defendant propaganda material..
To deny them the opportunity to recover money damages against the police for arresting them..
This operation involved three different scenarios, which justified its use in controlling civil disturbances and ultimately taking over government functions in an emergency..
The scenarios are..
Scenario One .. The police arrest someone and during the process a shooting occurs provoking the crowd..
Threats against public officials occur and riots begin..
Scenario Two .. Police vehicles are ambushed, a variety of assassinations are attempted against public officials, the public begins to gather in crowds protesting police or political actions, and the police lose control..
Scenario Three .. Riots increase, crowds must be dispersed before they become sympathetic to the rioters, and the National Guard and local police lose control..
Does Operation Cable Splicer still exit today?.
Yes it does!.
After a Y2K meeting held in the city of Wayne, Michigan, on September 16, 1999, a Lieutenant from the Michigan State Police Emergency Management Division was asked if he was aware of Operation Cable Splicer. He said that he was, and did not appear happy that he was asked that question..
He was also asked why stickers were being placed on the back of some highway signs in such a manner that they could be read as a code, and that if someone knew the code he could follow the stickers to police stations and/or prisons..
He fumbled with his response and tried to say that these stickers were simply bar codes used to identify a sign if a sign was damaged and had to be replaced..
The problem with his answer is that not all highway signs have these stickers on them..
In Conclusion
Prior to 1878 it was not unusual for civilian law enforcement agencies to call for military support to assist with enforcing civilian law..
After the Civil War, southern states called for an end to this practice, citing abuses and oppression by the military..
In 1878, Congress passed the Posse Comitatus Act, which was to stop the use of federal troops in civilian law enforcement matters..
Yet today, through DoD Directives, Executive Orders, and Federal laws, the Federal government has steadily increased its authority over what should be strictly local law enforcement issues, on the premise that these laws protect the government from violating the Posse Comitatus Act..
In essence what they have done is to allow the federal government and the DoD to supply the equipment, the training, and the personnel to (figuratively speaking) hold the gun as long as someone from a local or state police agency pulls the trigger..
Waco is an example of a local law enforcement problem, which the federal government and the DoD should have allowed local police agencies to handle..
When a government sends groups, which act as if they are immune to prosecution like the Nightstalkers and the FBI, into a civilian situation, it is inevitable that tragedies such as Waco and Ruby Ridge will occur..
At Waco these groups were responsible for the death of 80 people, of which 23 were children..
It means nothing to have Attorney General Janet Reno accept responsibility for what happened at Waco if she does not have to worry about any consequences..
http://www.wizardsofaz.com/waco/picturethis.html
Local and state governments can request federal assistance through federal representatives of the FBI and FEMA. If the request is approved, which during Martial Law will be a given, those federal troops approved to assist in controlling civil disturbances will remain under federal control, but will be overseen by the FBI and FEMA..
Should this country experience a national emergency, whether real or fabricated, that grows into a perceived crisis situation, the President, through Executive Order 12919 may declare Martial Law, and federal resources will be committed with or without local or state requests..
It should also be noted that FEMA will take control of all aspects of the government infrastructure, the Constitution will be suspended, and in fact this country will be under the control of a military dictatorship..
Should the course of future emergencies lead to the above action, it will most assuredly result in civil unrest throughout the country, and the DoD will institute operations Garden Plot and Cable Splicer..
It should also be noted that if the President turns the control of the federal government over to FEMA, he will be in clear violation of Article 4, Section 4, of the Constitution for the United States of America. Article 4, Section 4 reads..
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence..
Furthermore, Article 4, Section 4 of the Constitution reads or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened)..
Remember that if the President declares Martial Law, Congress will be suspended, and the President and FEMA will be able to institute what-ever laws they feel necessary. They could even finish instituting the New World Order in this country..
The Constitution provides for a republican form of government and FEMA is not a republican form of government..
It is not elected by the people to govern this country, it is an organization setup by people in government with questionable motives, that are corrupt, without morals or ethics..
This country did not need FEMA during World War I, World War II, Korean War, or Vietnam, and it is not needed now..
What is needed is a government that does not create problems in order to justify their unconstitutional acts..
What is needed is a government that not only knows the Constitution, but also upholds and obeys the Constitution and its protections..
APPENDIX
The following documents have been included so that the citizens in this country can read for themselves just what the Federal government, the Department of Defense, FEMA, and the FBI, have been planing for many years..

Fighting Terrorism..

Executive Summary..
When terrorists perpetrate atrocities against innocent American civilians, the public response is initially one of shock, which then quickly turns into anger..
It is also common for people to experience a deep sense of anxiety in the aftermath of such attacks—especially as they hear poignant stories about fellow citizens who were so suddenly and unexpectedly killed..
Such stories are a harsh reminder of one's own mortality and vulnerability..
Government officials typically respond to terrorist attacks by proposing and enacting "antiterrorism" legislation..
To assuage the wide-spread anxiety of the populace, policymakers make the dubious claim that they can prevent terrorism by curtailing the privacy and civil liberties of the people..
Because everyone wants to be safe and secure, such legislation is usually very popular and passes the legislative chambers of Congress with lopsided majorities..
As the president signs the antiterrorism bill into effect, too many people indulge in the assumption that they are now safe, since the police, with their newly acquired powers, will somehow be able to foil the terrorists before they can kill again..
The plain truth, however, is that it is only a matter of time before the next attack..
This cycle of terrorist attack followed by government curtailment of civil liberties must be broken—or our society will eventually lose the key attribute that has made it great..
freedom..
The American people can accept the reality that the president and Congress are simply not capable of preventing terrorist attacks from occurring..
Policymakers should stop pretending otherwise and focus their attention on combating terrorism within the framework of a free society..

I'm Dick Sutphen and this text is a version of the talk I delivered at the World Congress of Professional Hypnotists Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada..
Although this carries a copyright to protect it from unlawful duplication for sale by other companies, in this case, I invite individuals to make copies and give them to friends or anyone in a position to communicate this information..
Although I've been interviewed about the subject on many local and regional radio and TV talk shows, large-scale mass communication appears to be blocked, since it could result in suspicion or investigation of the very media presenting it or the sponsors that support the media..
Some government agencies do not want this information generally known..
Nor do the Born-Again Christian movement, cults, and many human-potential trainings..
Everything I will relate only exposes the surface of the problem. I don't know how the misuse of these techniques can be stopped. I don't think it is possible to legislate against that which often cannot be detected; and if those who legislate are using these techniques, there is little hope of affecting laws to govern usage..
I do know that the first step to initiate change is to generate interest. In this case, that will probably only result from an underground effort..
In talking about this subject, I am talking about my own business. I know it, and I know how effective it can be. I produce hypnosis and subliminal tapes and, in some of my seminars, I use conversion tactics to assist participants to become independent and self-sufficient..
But, anytime I use these techniques, I point out that I am using them, and those attending have a choice to participate or not. They also know what the desired result of participation will be..
So, to begin, I want to state the most basic of all facts about brainwashing..
In the entire history of man, no one has ever been brainwashed and realized, or believed, that he had been brainwashed..
Those who have been brainwashed will usually passionately defend their manipulators, claiming they have simply been shown the light . . . or have been transformed in miraculous ways..
The Birth of Conversion..
CONVERSION is a nice word for BRAINWASHING . . . and any study of brainwashing has to begin with a study of Christian revivalism in eighteenth century America..
Apparently, Jonathan Edwards accidentally discovered the techniques during a religious crusade in 1735 in Northampton, Massachusetts. By inducing guilt and acute apprehension and by increasing the tension, the sinners attending his revival meetings would break down and completely submit..
Technically, what Edwards was doing was creating conditions that wipe the brain slate clean so that the mind accepts new programming. The problem was that the new input was negative. He would tell them, You're a sinner! You're destined for hell!..
As a result, one person committed suicide and another attempted suicide. And the neighbors of the suicidal converts related that they, too, were affected so deeply that, although they had found eternal salvation, they were obsessed with a diabolical temptation to end their own lives..
Once a preacher, cult leader, manipulator or authority figure creates the brain phase to wipe the brain-slate clean, his subjects are wide open. New input, in the form of suggestion, can be substituted for their previous ideas. Because Edwards didn't turn his message positive until the end of the revival, many accepted the negative suggestions and acted, or desired to act, upon them..
Charles J. Finney was another Christian revivalist who used the same techniques four years later in mass religious conversions in New York. The techniques are still being used today by Christian revivalists, cults, human-potential trainings, some business rallies, and the United States Armed Services . . . to name just a few..
Let me point out here that I don't think most revivalist preachers realize or know they are using brainwashing techniques. Edwards simply stumbled upon a technique that really worked, and others copied it and have continued to copy it for over two hundred years. And the more sophisticated our knowledge and technology become, the more effective the conversion..
I feel strongly that this is one of the major reasons for the increasing rise in Christian fundamentalism, especially the televised variety, while most of the orthodox religions are declining..
Pavlov & Conditioning..
The Christians may have been the first to successfully formulate brainwashing, but we have to look to Pavlov, the Russian scientist, for a technical explanation. In the early 1900s, his work with animals opened the door to further investigations with humans, to discover how the use of rewards and punishments can condition human behaviour. After the revolution in Russia, Lenin was quick to see the potential of applying Pavlov's research to his own ends..
The ways to achieve conversion (i.e. conditioned acceptance of an idea or belief) are many and varied, but the usual first step in religious or political brainwashing is to work on the emotions of an individual or group until they reach an abnormal level of anger, fear, excitement, or nervous tension..
The progressive result of this cathartic mental condition is to impair judgement and increase suggestibility. The more this condition can be maintained or intensified, the more it compounds. Once catharsis is reached, the complete mental take-over becomes easier..
As the painful emotions are discharged, the mind is ready to accept new solutions, especially if they offer safety, rightness and rewards. Existing mental programming can be replaced with new patterns of thinking and behaviour..
Other often-used physiological weapons to modify normal brain functions are fasting, radical or high sugar diets, physical discomforts, regulation of breathing, mantra chanting in meditation, the disclosure of awesome mysteries, special lighting and sound effects, programmed response to incense, or intoxicating drugs..
The same results can be obtained in contemporary psychiatric treatment by electric shock treatments and even by purposely lowering a person's blood sugar level with insulin injections..
Before I talk about exactly how some of the techniques are applied, I want to point out that hypnosis and conversion tactics are two distinctly different things .. and that conversion techniques are far more powerful. However, the two are often mixed . . . with even more powerful results..
How Revivalist Preachers Work..
If you'd like to see a revivalist preacher at work, there are probably several in your city. Go to the church or hall early and sit in the rear, about three-quarters of the way back. Most likely repetitive music will be played while the people come in for the service..
A repetitive beat, ideally ranging from 45 to 72 beats per minute (a rhythm close to the beat of the human heart), is very hypnotic and can generate an eyes-open altered state of consciousness in a very high percentage of people. And, once you are in a relaxed alpha state, you are at least 25 times as suggestible as you would be in alert beta consciousness..
The music is probably the same for every service, or incorporates the same beat, and many of the people will go into an altered state almost immediately upon entering the sanctuary. Subconsciously, they recall their state of mind from previous services and respond according to the post-hypnotic programming..
Watch the people waiting for the service to begin. Many will exhibit external signs of trance--body relaxation and slightly dilated eyes. Often, they begin swaying back and forth with their hands in the air while sitting in their chairs. Next, the assistant pastor will probably come out. He usually speaks with a pretty good voice roll..
The Voice Roll Technique..
A voice roll is a patterned, paced style used by hypnotists when inducing a trance..
It is also used by many lawyers, several of whom are highly trained hypnotists, when they desire to entrench a point firmly in the minds of the jurors..
A voice roll can sound as if the speaker were talking to the beat of a metronome or it may sound as though he were emphasizing every word in a monotonous, patterned style..
The words will usually be delivered at the rate of 45 to 60 beats per minute, maximizing the hypnotic effect..
Now the assistant pastor begins the build-up process..
He induces an altered state of consciousness and/or begins to generate the excitement and the expectations of the audience..
Next, a group of young women in sweet and pure chiffon dresses might come out to sing a song..
Gospel songs are great for building excitement and INVOLVEMENT..
In the middle of the song, one of the girls might be smitten by the spirit and fall down or react as if possessed by the Holy Spirit..
This very effectively increases the intensity in the room. At this point, hypnosis and conversion tactics are being mixed, i.e. a message is introduced. And the result is the audience's attention span is now totally focused upon the communication while the environment becomes more exciting or tense..
Right about this time, when an eyes-open mass-induced alpha mental state has been achieved, they will usually pass the collection plate or basket. In the background, a 45-beat-per-minute voice roll from the assistant preacher might exhort, Give to God . . . Give to God . . . Give to God . . . And the audience does give. God may not get the money, but his already wealthy representative will..
Next, the fire-and-brimstone preacher will come out. He induces fear and increases the tension by talking about the Devil, going to Hell, or the forthcoming Armageddon..
In the last such rally I attended, the preacher talked about the blood that would soon be running out of every faucet in the land. He was also obsessed with a bloody axe of God, which everyone had seen hanging above the pulpit the previous week. I have no doubt that everyone saw it .. the power of suggestion given to hundreds of people in hypnosis assures that at least 10 to 25 percent would see whatever he suggested they see..
In most revivalist gatherings, testifying or witnessing usually follows the fear-based sermon. People from the audience come up on stage and relate their stories. I was crippled and now I can walk! I had arthritis and now it's gone!.
It is a psychological manipulation that works. After listening to numerous case histories of miraculous healings, the average guy in the audience with a minor problem is sure he can be healed. The room is charged with fear, guilt, intense excitement, and expectations..
Now those who want to be healed are frequently lined up around the edge of the room, or they are told to come down to the front. The preacher might touch them on the head firmly and scream, Be healed!. This releases the psychic energy and, for many, catharsis results. Catharsis is a purging of repressed emotions. Individuals might cry, fall down or even go into spasms. And if catharsis is effected, they stand a chance of being healed. In catharsis the brain-slate is temporarily wiped clean and the new suggestion is accepted..
For some, the healing may be permanent. For many, it will last four days to a week, which is, incidentally, how long a hypnotic suggestion given to a somnambulistic subject will usually last. Even if the healing doesn't last, if they come back every week, the power of suggestion may continually over-ride the problem . . . or sometimes, sadly, it can mask a physical problem which could prove to be very detrimental to the individual in the long run..
I'm not saying that legitimate healings do not take place. They do. Maybe the individual was ready to let go of the negativity that caused the problem in the first place; maybe it was the work of God. Yet I contend that it can be explained with existing knowledge of brain/mind function..
The techniques and staging will vary from church to church. Many use speaking in tongues to generate catharsis in some while the spectacle creates intense excitement in the observers..
[Editor's Note: The fear and guilt induced by the sermon may also produce the state of catharsis in many of the congregation, so that the message of the proceedings may then become hypnotically imprinted..]
The use of hypnotic techniques by evangelists is sophisticated, and professionals are assuring that they become even more effective. A man in Los Angeles is designing, building, and reworking a lot of churches around the country..
He tells ministers what they need and how to use it. This man's track record indicates that the congregation and the monetary income will double if the minister follows his instructions. He admits that about 80 percent of his efforts are in the sound system and lighting..
Powerful sound and the proper use of lighting are of primary importance in inducing an altered state of consciousness .. I've been using them for years in my own seminars. However, my participants are fully aware of the process and what they can expect as a result of their participation..
Nine Conversion Techniques..
Cults and human-potential organizations are always looking for new converts. To attain them, they must also create an appropriate state of suggestibility in the subjects. And they often need to do it within a short space of time .. a weekend, or maybe even a day..
The following are the nine primary techniques used to generate the conversion..
The meeting or training takes place in an area where participants are cut-off from the outside world. This may be any place: a private home, a remote or rural setting, or even a hotel ballroom where the participants are allowed only limited bathroom usage..
In human-potential trainings, the controllers will give a lengthy talk about the importance of "keeping agreements" in life. The participants are told that if they don't keep agreements, their life will never work..
It's a good idea to keep agreements, but the controllers are subverting a positive human value for selfish purposes. The participants vow to themselves and their trainer that they will keep their agreements. Anyone who does not will be intimidated into agreement or forced to leave..
The next step is to agree to uninterrupted training, thus assuring a high percentage of conversions for the organizations. They will usually have to agree not to take drugs, smoke, and sometimes not to eat . . . or they are given such short meal breaks that it creates tension. The real reason for the agreements is to alter internal chemistry, which generates anxiety and hopefully causes at least a slight malfunction of the nervous system, which in turn increases the conversion potential..
Before the gathering is complete, the agreements will be used to ensure that the new converts go out and find new participants..
They are intimidated into agreeing to do so before they leave. Since the importance of keeping agreements is so high on their priority list, the converts will twist the arms of everyone they know, attempting to talk them into attending a free introductory session offered at a future date by the organization..
The new converts are zealots. In fact, the inside term for merchandising human-potential training is, sell it by zealot!.
At least a million people are graduates of such trainings and a good percentage have been left with a mental activation button that assures their future loyalty and assistance if the guru figure or organization calls..
Think about the potential political implications of hundreds of thousands of zealots programmed to campaign for their guru..
Be wary of an organization of this type that offers follow-up sessions after the seminar. Follow-up sessions might be weekly meetings or inexpensive seminars given on a regular basis which the organization will attempt to talk you into taking .. or any regularly scheduled event used to maintain control. As the early Christian revivalists found, long-term control is dependent upon a good follow-up system..
Alright. Now, let's look at the tip-off that indicates conversion tactics are being used. A schedule is maintained that causes physical and mental fatigue. This is primarily accomplished by long hours in which the participants are given no opportunity for relaxation or reflection..
The next tip-off: techniques used to increase the tension in the room or environment. I could spend hours relating various techniques to increase tension and generate uncertainty..
Participants may be picked on and shouted at or humiliated, leaving others to fear the same treatment..
Basically, the participants are concerned about being put on the spot or encountered by the trainers, guilt feelings are played upon, participants are tempted to verbally relate their innermost secrets to the other participants or forced to take part in activities that emphasize removing their masks..
One of the most successful human-potential seminars forces the participants to stand on a stage in front of the entire audience while being verbally attacked by the trainers. A public opinion poll, conducted a few years ago, showed that the number one most-fearful situation an individual could encounter is to speak to an audience..
It ranked above window washing outside the 85th floor of an office building. So you can imagine the fear and tension this situation generates within the participants. Many faint, but most cope with the stress by mentally going away. They literally go into an alpha state, which automatically makes them many times as suggestible as they normally are. And another loop of the downward spiral into conversion is successfully effected..
Another clue that conversion tactics are being used is the introduction of jargon .. new terms that have meaning only to the insiders who participate..
Vicious language is also frequently used, purposely, to make participants uncomfortable..
The final tip-off is that there is no humor in the communications . . .at least until the participants are converted. Then, merry-making and humor, highly desirable as symbols of the new joy the participants have supposedly found..
I'm not saying that good does not result from participation in such gatherings. It can and does. But I contend it is important for people to know what has happened and to be aware that continual involvement may not be in their best interest..
Over the years, I've conducted professional seminars to teach people to be hypnotists, trainers, and counsellors. I've had many of those who conduct trainings and rallies come to me and say, I'm here because I know that what I'm doing works, but I don't know why.. After showing them how and why, many have gotten out of the business or have decided to approach it differently or in a much more loving and supportive manner..
Many of these trainers have become personal friends, and it scares us all to have experienced the power of one person with a microphone and a room full of people. Add a little charisma and you can count on a high percentage of conversions. The sad truth is that a high percentage of people want to give-away their power .. they are true believers!.
Cult gatherings or human-potential trainings are an ideal environment to observe first-hand what is technically called the Stockholm Syndrome..
This is a situation in which those who are intimidated, controlled, or made to suffer, begin to love, admire, and even sometimes sexually desire their controllers or captors..
But let me inject a word of warning here: If you think you can attend such a training and not be affected, you are probably wrong. A perfect example is the case of a woman who went to Haiti on a Guggenheim Fellowship to study Haitian Voodoo..
In her report, she related how the music eventually induced uncontrollable bodily movement and an altered state of consciousness. Although she understood the process and thought herself above it, when she began to feel herself become vulnerable to the music, she attempted to fight it and turned away. Anger or resistance almost always assures conversion..
A few moments later she was possessed by the music and began dancing in a trance around the Voodoo meeting house. A brain phase had been induced by the music and excitement, and she awoke feeling reborn. The only hope of attending such gatherings without being affected is to be a Buddha and allow no positive or negative emotions to surface. Few people are capable of such detachment..
Before I go on, let's go back to the nine tip-offs to conversion. I want to mention the United States Government and military boot camp. The Marine Corps talks about breaking men down before "rebuilding" them as new men .. as marines! Well, that is exactly what they do, the same way a cult breaks its people down and rebuilds them as happy flower sellers on your local street corner..
Every one of the above conversion techniques are used in boot camp. Considering the needs of the military, I'm not making a judgement as to whether that is good or bad. IT IS A FACT that the men are effectively brainwashed. Those who won't submit must be discharged or spend much of their time in the brig..
The Decognition Process..
Decognition is the removal of cognitive faculties: to make the mind unable or unwilling to think rationally or construct argument..
Once the initial conversion is effected, cults, armed services, and similar groups cannot have cynicism among their members..
Members must respond to commands and do as they are told, otherwise they are dangerous to the organizational control..
This is normally accomplished as a three-step Decognition Process..
Step One is ALERTNESS REDUCTION..
The controllers cause the nervous system to malfunction, making it difficult to distinguish between fantasy and reality. This can be accomplished in several ways:
POOR DIET is one; watch out for Brownies and Koolaid. The sugar throws the nervous system off..
More subtle is the SPIRITUAL DIET used by many cults. They eat only vegetables and fruits; without the grounding of grains, nuts, seeds, dairy products, fish or meat, an individual becomes mentally spacey..
INADEQUATE SLEEP is another primary way to reduce alertness, especially when combined with long hours of work or intense physical activity. Also, being bombarded with intense and unique experiences achieves the same result..
Step Two is PROGRAMMED CONFUSION..
You are mentally assaulted while your alertness is being reduced as in Step One. This is accomplished with a deluge of new information, lectures, discussion groups, encounters or one-to-one processing, which usually amounts to the controller bombarding the individual with questions. During this phase of decognition, reality and illusion often merge and perverted logic is likely to be accepted..
Step Three is THOUGHT STOPPING..
Techniques are used to cause the mind to go flat.. These are altered-state-of-consciousness techniques that initially induce calmness by giving the mind something simple to deal with and focusing awareness. The continued use brings on a feeling of elation and eventually hallucination..
The result is the reduction of thought and eventually, if used long enough, the cessation of all thought and withdrawal from everyone and everything except that which the controllers direct..
The take-over is then complete..
It is important to be aware that when members or participants are instructed to use "thought-stopping" techniques, they are told that they will benefit by so doing: they will become better soldiers or find enlightenment..
There are three primary techniques used for thought stopping..
The first is MARCHING: the thump, thump, thump beat literally generates self-hypnosis and thus great susceptibility to suggestion..
The second thought stopping technique is MEDITATION. If you spend an hour to an hour and a half a day in meditation, after a few weeks, there is a great probability that you will not return to full beta consciousness. You will remain in a fixed state of alpha as long as you continue to meditate. I'm not saying this is bad .. if you do it yourself. It may be very beneficial. But it is a fact that you are causing your mind to go flat..
I've worked with meditators on an EEG machine and the results are conclusive: the more you meditate, the flatter your mind becomes until, eventually and especially if used to excess or in combination with decognition, all thought ceases. Some spiritual groups see this as nirvana .. which is b u l l s h i t..
It is simply a predictable physiological result. And if heaven on earth is non-thinking and non-involvement, I really question why we are here..
The third thought-stopping technique is CHANTING, and often chanting in meditation. Speaking in tongues could also be included in this category..
All three-stopping techniques produce an altered state of consciousness. This may be very good if YOU are controlling the process, for you also control the input. I personally use at least one self-hypnosis programming session every day and I know how beneficial it is for me. But you need to know if you use these techniques to the degree of remaining continually in alpha that, although you'll be very mellow, you'll also be more suggestible..
True Believers & Mass Movements..
Before ending this section on conversion, I want to talk about the people who are most susceptible to it and about Mass Movements..
I am convinced that at least a third of the population is what Eric Hoffer calls true believers..
They are joiners and followers . . . people who want to give away their power.. They look for answers, meaning, and enlightenment outside themselves..
Hoffer, who wrote The True Believer, a classic on mass movements, says, true believers are not intent on bolstering and advancing a cherished self, but are those craving to be rid of unwanted self. They are followers, not because of a desire for self-advancement, but because it can satisfy their passion for self-renunciation! Hoffer also says that true believers are eternally incomplete and eternally insecure!.
I know this from my own experience. In my years of communicating concepts and conducting trainings, I have run into them again and again. All I can do is attempt to show them that the only thing to seek is the True Self within. Their personal answers are to be found there and there alone. I communicate that the basics of spirituality are self-responsibility and self-actualization. But most of the true believers just tell me that I'm not spiritual and go looking for someone who will give them the dogma and structure they desire..
Never underestimate the potential danger of these people. They can easily be molded into fanatics who will gladly work and die for their holy cause..
It is a substitute for their lost faith in themselves and offers them The Cause as a substitute for individual hope. The Moral Majority is made up of true believers..
All cults are composed of true believers. You'll find them in politics, churches, businesses, and social cause groups. They are the fanatics in these organizations..
Mass Movements will usually have a charismatic leader. The followers want to convert others to their way of living or impose a new way of life .. if necessary, by legislating laws forcing others to their view, as evidenced by the activities of the Moral Majority..
This means enforcement by guns or punishment, for that is the bottom line in law enforcement..
A common hatred, enemy, or devil is essential to the success of a mass movement. The Born-Again Christians have Satan himself, but that isn't enoughthey've added the occult, the New Age thinkers and, lately, all those who oppose their integration of church and politics, as evidenced in their political re-election campaigns against those who oppose their views..
In revolutions, the devil is usually the ruling power or aristocracy. Some human-potential movements are far too clever to ask their graduates to join anything, thus labelling themselves as a cult .. but, if you look closely, you'll find that their devil is anyone and everyone who hasn't taken their training..
There are mass movements without devils but they seldom attain major status. The True Believers are mentally unbalanced or insecure people, or those without hope or friends. People don't look for allies when they love, but they do when they hate or become obsessed with a cause. And those who desire a new life and a new order feel the old ways must be eliminated before the new order can be built..
Persuasion Techniques..
Persuasion isn't technically brainwashing but it is the manipulation of the human mind by another individual, without the manipulated party being aware what caused his opinion shift..
I will very basically introduce you to a few of the thousands of techniques in use today, but the basis of persuasion is always to access your RIGHT BRAIN..
The left half of your brain is analytical and rational. The right side is non-verbal and deals in images and emotions. That is overly simplified but it makes my point. So, the idea is to distract the left brain and keep it busy..
Ideally, the persuader generates an eyes-open altered state of consciousness, causing you to shift from beta awareness into alpha; this can be measured on an EEG machine..
First, let me give you an example of distracting the left brain. Politicians use these powerful techniques all the time; lawyers use many variations which, I've been told, they call tightening the noose..
Assume for a moment that you are watching a politician give a speech. First, he might generate what is called a YES SET..
These are statements that will cause listeners to agree; they might even unknowingly nod their heads in agreement..
Next come the TRUISMS..
These are usually facts that could be debated but, once the politician has his audience agreeing, the odds are in the politician's favor that the audience won't stop to think for themselves, thus continuing to agree..
Last comes the SUGGESTION..
This is what the politician wants you to do and, since you have been agreeing all along, you could be persuaded to accept the suggestion. Now, if you'll listen closely to my political speech, you'll find that the first three are the yes set, the next three are truisms and the last is the suggestion..
Ladies and gentlemen: are you angry about high food prices? Are you tired of astronomical gas prices? Are you sick of out-of-control inflation? Well, you know the Other Party allowed 18 percent inflation last year; you know crime has increased 50 percent nationwide in the last 12 months, and you know your paycheck hardly covers your expenses any more. Well, the answer to resolving these problems is to elect me, John Jones, to the U.S. Senate..
And I think you've heard all that before. But you might also watch for what are called Imbedded Commands. As an example: On key words, the speaker would make a gesture with his left hand, which research has shown is more apt to access your right brain. Today's media-oriented politicians and spellbinders are often carefully trained by a whole new breed of specialist who are using every trick in the book .. both old and new .. to manipulate you into accepting their candidate..
The concepts and techniques of Neuro-Linguistic Programming are so heavily protected that I found out the hard way that to even talk about them publicly or in print results in threatened legal action. Yet Neuro-Linguistic training is readily available to anyone willing to devote the time and pay the price. It is some of the most subtle and powerful manipulation I have yet been exposed to. A good friend who recently attended a two-week seminar on Neuro-Linguistics found that many of those she talked to during the breaks were government people..
Another technique that I'm just learning about is unbelievably slippery; it is called an INTERSPERSAL TECHNIQUE and the idea is to say one thing with words but plant a subconscious impression of something else in the minds of the listeners and/or watchers..
Let me give you an example: Assume you are watching a television commentator make the following statement.. Senator Johnson is assisting local authorities to clear up the stupid mistakes of companies contributing to the nuclear waste problems..
It sounds like a statement of fact, but, if the speaker emphasizes the right words, and especially if he makes the proper hand gestures on the key words, you could be left with the subconscious impression that Senator Johnson is stupid. That was the subliminal goal of the statement and the speaker cannot be called to account for anything..
Persuasion techniques are also frequently used on a much smaller scale with just as much effectiveness..
The insurance salesman knows his pitch is likely to be much more effective if he can get you to visualize something in your mind. This is right-brain communication. For instance, he might pause in his conversation, look slowly around your living room and say, Can you just imagine this beautiful home burning to the ground?. Of course you can!.
It is one of your unconscious fears and, when he forces you to visualize it, you are more likely to be manipulated into signing his insurance policy..
The Hare Krishnas, operating in every airport, use what I call SHOCK AND CONFUSION techniques to distract the left brain and communicate directly with the right brain. While waiting for a plane, I once watched one operate for over an hour. He had a technique of almost jumping in front of someone. Initially, his voice was loud then dropped as he made his pitch to take a book and contribute money to the cause..
Usually, when people are shocked, they immediately withdraw. In this case they were shocked by the strange appearance, sudden materialization and loud voice of the Hare Krishna devotee..
In other words, the people went into an alpha state for security because they didn't want to confront the reality before them. In alpha, they were highly suggestible so they responded to the suggestion of taking the book; the moment they took the book, they felt guilty and responded to the second suggestion: give money..
We are all conditioned that if someone gives us something, we have to give them something in return .. in that case, it was money..
While watching this hustler, I was close enough to notice that many of the people he stopped exhibited an outward sign of alpha--their eyes were actually dilated..
Subliminal Programming..
Subliminals are hidden suggestions that only your subconscious perceives..
They can be audio, hidden behind music, or visual, airbrushed into a picture, flashed on a screen so fast that you don't consciously see them, or cleverly incorporated into a picture or design..
Most audio subliminal reprogramming tapes offer verbal suggestions recorded at a low volume. The oldest audio subliminal technique uses a voice that follows the volume of the music so subliminals are impossible to detect without a parametric equalizer. But this technique is patented and, when I wanted to develop my own line of subliminal audio cassettes, negotiations with the patent holder proved to be unsatisfactory..
My attorney obtained copies of the patents which I gave to some talented Hollywood sound engineers, asking them to create a new technique. They found a way to psycho-acoustically modify and synthesize the suggestions so that they are projected in the same chord and frequency as the music, thus giving them the effect of being part of the music. Although the suggestions are being heard by the subconscious mind, they cannot be monitored with even the most sophisticated equipment..
If we were able to come up with this technique as easily as we did, I can only imagine how sophisticated the technology has become with unlimited government or advertising funding. And I shudder to think about the propaganda and commercial manipulation that we are exposed to on a daily basis. There is simply no way to know what is behind the music you hear. It may even be possible to hide a second voice behind the voice to which you are listening..
The series by Wilson Bryan Key, Ph.D., on subliminals in advertising and political campaigns well documents the misuse in many areas, especially printed advertising in newspapers, magazines and posters..
The big question about subliminals is: do they work? And I guarantee you they do. Not only from the response of those who have used my tapes, but from the results of such programs as the subliminals behind the music in department stores. Supposedly, the only message is instructions to not steal: one East Coast department store chain reported a 37 percent reduction in thefts in the first nine months of testing..
A 1984 article in the technical newsletter, "Brain-Mind Bulletin," states as much as 99 percent of our cognitive activity may be non-conscious, according to the director of the Laboratory for Cognitive Psycho-Physiology at the University of Illinois. The lengthy report ends with the statement, These findings support the use of subliminal approaches such as taped suggestions for weight loss and the therapeutic use of hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming..
Inducing Trance With Vibrational Sound..
I could relate many stories that support subliminal programming, but I'd rather use my time to make you aware of even more subtle uses of such programming..
I have personally experienced sitting in a Los Angeles auditorium with over ten thousand people who were gathered to listen to a current charismatic figure..
Twenty minutes after entering the auditorium, I became aware that I was going in and out of an altered state..
Those accompanying me experienced the same thing. Since it is our business, we were aware of what was happening, but those around us were not. By careful observation, what appeared to be spontaneous demonstrations were, in fact, artful manipulations..
The only way I could figure that the eyes-open trance had been induced was that a 6-7 cycle-per-second vibration was being piped into the room behind the air-conditioner sound..
That particular vibration generates alpha, which would render the audience highly susceptible. Ten to 25 percent of the population is capable of a somnambulistic level of altered states of consciousness; for these people, the suggestions of the speaker, if non-threatening, could potentially be accepted as commands..
This leads to the mention of VIBRATO..
Vibrato is the tremulous effect imparted in some vocal or instrumental music, and the cycle-per-second range causes people to go into an altered state of consciousness..
At one period of English history, singers whose voices contained pronounced vibrato were not allowed to perform publicly because listeners would go into an altered state and have fantasies, often sexual in nature..
People who attend opera or enjoy listening to singers like Mario Lanzaare may be familiar with this altered state induced by the performers..
Now, let's carry this awareness a little farther. One of the primary uses of extra-low frequency waves (ELFs) is to communicate with submarines. Dr.Andrija Puharich, a highly respected researcher, in an attempt to warn U.S. officials about Russian use of ELFs, set up an experiment. Volunteers were wired so their brain waves could be measured on an EEG. They were sealed in a metal room that could not be penetrated by a normal signal..
Puharich then beamed ELF waves at the volunteers. ELFs go right through the earth and, of course, right through metal walls. Those inside couldn't know if the signal was or was not being sent. And Puharich watched the reactions on the technical equipment: 30 percent of those inside the room were taken over by the ELF signal in six to ten seconds..
When I say taken over, I mean that their behaviour followed the changes anticipated at very precise frequencies..
Waves below 6 cycles per second caused the subjects to become very emotionally upset, and even disrupted bodily functions. At 8.2 cycles, they felt very high . . . an elevated feeling, as though they had been in masterful meditation, learned over a period of years. Eleven to 11.3 cycles induced waves of depressed agitation leading to riotous behaviour..
The Neurophone..
Dr. Patrick Flanagan is a personal friend of mine. In the early 1960s, as a teenager, Pat was listed as one of the top scientists in the world by Life magazine..
Among his many inventions was a device he called the Neurophone .. an electronic instrument that can successfully program suggestions directly through contact with the skin..
When he attempted to patent the device, the government demanded that he prove it worked. When he did, the National Security Agency confiscated the neurophone..
It took Pat two years of legal battle to get his invention back..
In using the device, you don't hear or see a thing; it is applied to the skin, which Pat claims is the source of special senses..
The skin contains more sensors for heat, touch, pain, vibration, and electrical fields than any other part of the human anatomy..
In one of his recent tests, Pat conducted two identical seminars for a military audience .. one seminar one night and one the next night, because the size of the room was not large enough to accommodate all of them at one time..
When the first group proved to be very cool and unwilling to respond, Patrick spent the next day making a special tape to play at the second seminar..
The tape instructed the audience to be extremely warm and responsive and for their hands to become tingly..
The tape was played through the neurophone, which was connected to a wire he placed along the ceiling of the room. There were no speakers, so no sound could be heard, yet the message was successfully transmitted from that wire directly into the brains of the audience. They were warm and receptive, their hands tingled and they responded, according to programming, in other ways that I cannot mention here..
The more we find out about how human beings work through today's highly advanced technological research, the more we learn to control human beings. And what probably scares me the most is that the medium for take-over is already in place! The television set in your living room and bedroom is doing a lot more than just entertaining you..
Before I continue, let me point out something else about an altered state of consciousness. When you go into an altered state, you transfer into right brain dominance, which results in the internal release of the body's own opiates: encephalins and Beta-endorphins, chemically almost identical to opium. In other words, it feels good . . . and you want to come back for more..
Recent tests by researcher Herbert Krugman showed that, while viewers were watching TV, right-brain activity outnumbered left-brain activity by a ratio of two to one. Put more simply, the viewers were in an altered state . . . in trance more often than not. They were getting their Beta-endorphin fix..
[Editor's Note: Watching TV is also a continuous input of pictures causing increased right-brain activity and left-brain analytical shut-off..]
To measure attention spans, psycho-physiologist Thomas Mulholland of the Veterans Hospital in Bedford, Massachusetts, attached young viewers to an EEG machine that was wired to shut the TV set off whenever the children's brains produced a majority of alpha waves. Although the children were told to concentrate, only a few could keep the set on for more than 30 seconds!.
Most viewers are already hypnotized. To deepen the trance is easy. One simple way is to place a blank, black frame every 32 frames in the film that is being projected. This creates a 45-beat-per-minute pulsation perceived only by the subconscious mind--the ideal pace to generate deep hypnosis..
The commercials or suggestions presented following this alpha-inducing broadcast are much more likely to be accepted by the viewer. The high percentage of the viewing audience that has somnambulistic-depth ability could very well accept the suggestions as commands--as long as those commands did not ask the viewer to do something contrary to his morals, religion, or self-preservation..
The medium for take-over is here. By the age of 16, children have spent 10,000 to 15,000 hours watching television .. that is more time than they spend in school! In the average home, the TV set is on for six hours and 44 minutes per day--an increase of nine minutes from last year and three times the average rate of increase during the 1970s..
It obviously isn't getting better . . . we are rapidly moving into an alpha-level world .. very possibly the Orwellian world of 1984 .. placid, glassy-eyed, and responding obediently to instructions..
A research project by Jacob Jacoby, a Purdue University psychologist, found that of 2,700 people tested, 90 percent misunderstood even such simple viewing fare as commercials and Barnaby Jones..
Only minutes after watching, the typical viewer missed 23 to 36 percent of the questions about what he or she had seen. Of course they did .. they were going in and out of trance!.
If you go into a deep trance, you must be instructed to remember .. otherwise you automatically forget..
I have just touched the tip of the iceberg. When you start to combine subliminal messages behind the music, subliminal visuals projected on the screen, hypnotically produced visual effects, sustained musical beats at a trance-inducing pace . . . you have extremely effective brainwashing..
Every hour that you spend watching the TV set you become more conditioned. And, in case you thought there was a law against any of these things, guess again. There isn't! There are a lot of powerful people who obviously prefer things exactly the way they are..
[Editor's Note: What your parents, teachers and other figures of perceived authority tell you at times of stress and confusion has subconscious command-value..
The child's mind is frequently overwhelmed and operating at alpha frequencies, so the roots of our personality conditioning occurs in the early years..
In addition, messages such as Don't be so lazy! are interpreted by the right brain (dominant at times of emotion) as Be lazy! With enough force, or repeated often enough, these messages sink in. So do any commands received during times of overwhelm, confusion and - especially - unconsciousness..
For example, it has been proven that the surgeon's conversation - such as This guy has no chance .. during an operation can dramatically affect the patient's recovery..]
Truth is often hard to swallow..
SO WE REST IN COMFORTABLE LIES AND DELUSIONS..
By: Dorothy Anne Seese
Truth hurts..
When evil people come to power, a lot of people who are trying to fight the evil have to suffer..
That is true the world over and it is true in the United States..
What hurts even more is when people who are trying to restore our nation to some semblance of sanity and constitutionality are demonized, relegated to the dinosaur house, and mocked when they speak out about the direction our nation is headed..
This dilemma is as old as mankind's civilizations..
The evil come to power and oppress those who want nothing more than peace and an opportunity to live amidst the ordinary struggles of life as best they can..
The sole purpose of nations, and national sovereignty, is for peoples who think alike, speak the same language and have common interests to have a common bond of government within a defined boundary..
They mark out their territory and draw imaginary lines on the globe, and within those lines they seek to just live their short lives (and all life is short) as free of trouble as possible..
But there's a bully in every village and there are a group of them in the Global Village..
Yet some folks fail to understand globalism, its elitist rulers and their own internecine struggles for control..
and
How these abstract people and programs affect individual and national freedoms, their safety (real or imaginary)..
and
Rather than learn the truth, they wring their hands about why evil befalls them..
They look blank even when a person or many people write it down and put it in front of their faces..
Sometimes nothing is stranger than truth, it's an old saw, but people really would prefer a comfortable lie than to deal with the truth of times, trends and events..
Another truth people fail to appreciate is cultural differences and religious fervor in some peoples..
There is such as thing as east is east and west is west and never the twain shall meet in the areas of long-rooted cultures and religious beliefs..
To say that these people, whom we consider as relics of the dark ages, have no right to be themselves, or to be anti-western when we in the US believe they should catch up with the times, is anything but tolerant in a nation that is stressing tolerance at its own convenience..
And for its own political purposes..
Another truth that hurts is that people, no matter how good they may seem, are intrinsically infected with evil, and it crops out in strange ways..
We see it under certain types of mob psychology, ingrained hatred, and in the acts of abominable rulers against the helpless or the opposition who dare not speak..
We see it in the earth's history of bloodshed and torture..
Man's inhumanity to man is notorious, and his acts of depravity are legion..
We in the United States wish to carry on the illusion that we are, above all else, a good people, full of the kind of heroism that manifested itself on nine-eleven in the heroes who gave their lives to save others on that day..
Well, in ordinary life we aren't really that way, or at least few of us are..
When it comes to imposing our American will on the rest of the world, the US leadership doesn't look either heroic or altruistic..
It looks greedy, mean, and arrogant, holding its own WMD against all others who would build the same type of weaponry..
Is it any wonder that those of eastern culture look upon us as satanic?
By the standards of our founding fathers, they might think we're all drunk with power and pride also..
It's much easier to follow our leaders and cheer them on to victories that are hollow trophies in a hall of infamy than it is to ferret out the underlying motives, the money trails, the ultimate goal of each act of repression..
It was that way in Germany in 1933, not primarily because of Hitler but because Goebbels understood how people think, emote and react..
And he capitalized on that weakness in mankind, and in particular, in Germany..
He served his master well..
But what went around came around, and eventually Herr Goebbels met his fate..
And so it is..
The truth may be a hard and very large pill to swallow, but it is a lot better than meeting the fate of those trapped in error and delusion about the facts..
Americans are notoriously asleep at the switch until a Pearl Harbor or a World Trade Center attack wakes them from their slumber..
However, only political junkies seem to keep up with times, trends and events, crying in a noisy wilderness of frenzied pleasure-seekers who do not want to be disturbed..
It's hard to tell the average American that we're losing our freedoms because the midnight knock has not come to his or her door, and nothing looks unusual on the commute to work..
There are no troops in the streets, the courts are open, and life goes on..
Yes it does ... and all the while, one law at a time, these same folk are losing their freedoms and cannot even understand that eventually, there won't be any freedom in America..
They will cheer on those who are spreading American freedom abroad, without realizing that American freedom means one thing to the average American and quite another to America's ruling elite..
Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of Great Britain during World War II and for many years thereafter, perhaps saw it in the easiest form to understand when he observed..
Men occasionally stumble over truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.. Winston Churchill
Human Nature..
DUMB OBSTINACY..
[The following article by Steve Wilson appeared in The Arizona Republic of March 13, 1996:]
Taking obstinacy to new levels in finding a car at airport..
How's this for dumb..
I flew into Sky Harbor Airport on Sunday and walked to the Terminal 4 parking garage to get my car. I knew exactly where it was parked .. Level 5, Space 247..
Unlike those scatterbrained types who need to write down their location when they leave their cars at the airport, my superior memory makes this task unnecessary..
When I reached Space 247, I found a different car parked in my space..
This was not possible..
I retraced my path. I had entered the west side of the garage on Friday and spiraled up the ramp. A sign at the first exit, Level 4, said there was no room and to continue to the next level..
I complied and pulled into Space 247..
Someone stole my car, I imagined. What else could explain this Jeep in my parking space?.
Before reporting it stolen, I thought I ought to look around. There's an infinitesimal chance .. roughly the same as Bob Dole being elected president this year .. that I had parked in a different space. The next half hour was spent checking out all 779 spaces on Level 5..
No car..
Even though I was positive I hadn't entered Level 4, I went down and checked Space 247 on that floor. No car..
Then I walked up to Level 6, even though I was certain I hadn't been up that high..
There, in Space 247, sat my car..
My mistake, I learned later, was in presuming that I had entered on Level 5. The way the garage is set up, the west side ramp feeds cars into Levels 4 or 6 only. On the east side, cars enter on Levels 5 or 7 only..
Not knowing where I had parked was bad enough, but what really struck me as I drove home was how unwilling I'd been to admit to myself that I'd made a mistake..
Marilyn vos Savant wouldn't be surprised..
She's the woman listed in the Guiness Book of World Records for having the world's highest IQ, which is 228..
She knows how reluctant people are to admit they're wrong or change their minds once a decision has been made..
In a just-published book, The Power of Logical Thinking, she writes about our irrational stubbornness in connection with a famous brainteaser, the Monte Hall Dilemma. The name is taken from Hall's long-running TV program, Let's Make a Deal..
The problem goes like this..
Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors. Behind one door is a car, behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say No. 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say No. 3, which has a goat. He asks, Do you want to pick door Number 2?
Is it to your advantage to switch your choice of doors?.
The answer seems simple and obvious to most people. They see no advantage to switching and stick with door No. 1.
The correct answer, however, is to switch. This contradicts most people's intuition that the odds on each of the two unopened doors must be one-half. They aren't..
When you chose Door No. 1, the odds of getting the car were one-third. You had a one-third chance of being right to begin with, and you still do. Since the odds on Door No. 1 remain at one-third, and opening door No. 3 leaves only one other door where the car could be, the odds on door No. 2 must now be two-thirds..
Computer trials confirm that switching doors leads to winning the car 66.7 percent of the time..
Most people get it wrong for two reasons..
First, they miscalculate the probabilities of sticking and switching. That's nothing to feel inferior about..
After this problem appeared in her Parade magazine column in 1990, vos Savant received nearly 10,000 critical letters, including hundreds from people with Ph.Ds..
But even if the true probability of winning by sticking were .50, as most people presume, there's still no rational basis to prefer standing pat. So why don't more people switch?.
Vos Savant sees psychological mechanisms such as belief perseverance and cognitive dissonance coming into play..
Both make it hard for us to change a belief, or in this case, a choice, after it's been expressed. Once we make a decision, it gets tied up with ego and we can become irrationally committed to it. We anticipate feeling worse if we switch and lose than if we stick and lose..
Our brains are wired in such a way that encourages us to stay with our choices, no matter how poorly informed or insignificant they are. We'd rather feel right than reconsider..
Even when the odds are that the car is parked behind a different door..
Or on another floor..
THE REMEDY..
To enslave the American people, the World Elite used a slowly implemented plot based on International Law with the main legal factor being consent..
Since all of this has been implemented under our very noses, it may be appropriate to include more philosophy from another World Elite training manual..
Those who will not use their brains are not better off than those who have no brains, and so this mindless school of jellyfish, father, mother, son, and daughter, become useful beasts of burden or trainers of the same. /1\
Such is what THEY think of the American people at large..
You must understand that you have become enslaved by the hidden enemy's weapon of Materialism..
To set yourself free, the most important thing to understand is that God is your Master. You can only serve one master. If you do not believe in God you then believe in man. And, as all men are sinners you then are in deep trouble. If you let this most important factor be forgotten, then THEY will tacitly enslave you..
To remedy the tacitly induced situation exposed herein..
1. You can not be a registered voter (and, you better not be voting)..
2. You must claim one of the several American republics as your nation..
3. You must put your faith in God and His word..
Accordingly, said actions will allow you will gain back your natural rights which are preserved under the organic (real) constitutional system..
Such initiative will remove you from the control of the private laws as set forth by the Marxist federal government; moreover, from most of the private laws of any chosen American republic, as they currently only represent United States citizens and nationals..
As this task is not a easy one, it will take a lot of study (Legal and Scriptural)..
If you chose not to take the initiative to free yourself . . . We understand..
It has been said that only about 5% of the American colonists fought in the American Revolution..
Your subversive masters also know this, and they care not because they know that you will remain in servitude to them by the doles they offer. As Benjamin Franklin, a wise man, fittingly stated..
Make yourselves sheep and the wolves will eat you..
And fittingly, Thomas Jefferson (another wise man) stated..
We must make our choice between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude. If we can prevent the government from wasting the labours of the people under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy..
Mr. Jefferson was apparently against Socialism . . . For Obvious Reasons..
If you are an atheist, you have been programmed to be such by your hidden captors (for the reasons disclosed herein). Accordingly, you are excepting government to be your keeper, as THEY have planned; consequently . . . you are theirs. . .
God save you !!
REMEMBER- Natural law under the guidance of God will set you free. Which brings us to a close, and thus a fitting statement by a man of great insight..
THERE IS NO ONE SO HOPELESSLY ENSLAVED AS HE WHO FALSELY BELIEVES HE IS FREE. . . . Goethe /2\
IGNORANCE IS NOT BLISS..IT'S SLAVERY!!

THE COMMODITY..
Before you are told the whole truth, Mr. Riegon (Cyper) believes that Ignorance is Bliss. If you do not want to know the whole truth, Agent Smith will assist you in returning to OZ.. You may exit ..
It's time to explain what this is all about..
Before the Civil War, the middle class was primarily composed of self-sufficient landowners who was not a useable resource to the World Elite. THEY devised the Communist Manifesto as a means to enslave the middle class and tap their usefulness, i.e. exploit their wealth and labors..
Witness that today, the middle class is categorically working (even middle class women)..
Accordingly, in this Part the final PRODUCT is disclosed. In other words, we will unveil the World Elite's final desired output..
In the past several years you may have noticed that the phrase Human Resource Department has replaced Personnel Department in the work place..
You may have also noticed that throughout America the term Company has generally been replaced by the term Corporation..
You may be saying to yourself, So what.. What's the difference?.
Actually there is a big difference..
The former is private, while the latter is controlled by government..
Corporations are Creatures of the State, whereas companies are generally private; consequently, the owners of companies enjoy the absence of government intervention..
This conversion should be a strong indicator of what has transpired; however, no one thinks or cares anything of it (because they are programmed)..
In the past, labor was privately based; today, however, labor is controlled by the government. Accordingly, Corporations are creatures of the State, and so are Human Resources (as they are called)..
Americans are simply looked at as a commodity. See the term commodity defined below..
commodity. Something useful that can be turned to commercial or other advantage; An article of trade or commerce.. /1\
And (Human) Resource..
resource. The total means available for economic and political development, such as mineral wealth and labor force; The total means available to a company for increasing production or profit, including plant, labor, and raw material; assets.. /1\
And now the documented legal evidence will be presented to demonstrate what is really occurring..
If you look in Title 13 of the United States Code (The Federal Law) under section 1, which defines the Bureau of the Census, you will find the following information..
(a) As used in this title, unless the context requires another meaning or unless it is otherwise provided..
(1)Bureau means the Bureau of the Census;
(2)Secretary means the Secretary of Commerce;
The individual in charge of the de facto Census is the. . .
Secretary of Commerce!..!
So what does this mean?.
The government (The State) is simply keeping track of its economic commodities. Pursuant to this fact, look at the following definition..
SLAVE. A machine or component controlled by another machine or component.. /1\
The changing of terms from Personnel Department to Human Resource Department means THEY have reached their goal and now have control..
Americans are simply Slave Components being controlled by the Government Machine for the Economic Wealth of the Elite..
It is estimated that the federal government has its hands in nearly 50% of the Gross National Product (GNP). Said figure has increased by over 40% in the last 25 years..
In other words, Communism, under the guise of a Free-Market Capitalist System, is now the day-to-day reality in America.. /2\
So-called communism is just a way to establish central control of people so they can be dictated to and controlled by a central source for use by the unseen hand..
Again, the following political rhetoric was a just a method to implement what is now in place, i.e. Tacit Servitude..
Democracy is indispensable to Socialism.. V. I. Lenin
Socialism leads to Communism.. Karl Marx
Again, it was said by a very wise man..
Under bad governments, this equality is only apparent and illusory: it serves only to keep the pauper in his poverty and the rich man in the position he has usurped. In fact, laws are always of use to those who possess and harmful to those who have nothing: from which it follows that the social state is advantageous to men only when all have something and none too much.. Jean Jacques Rousseau
America is just one big Economic Machine generating wealth for the World Elite through the guise of The State. . .
. . . And accordingly . . .
. . . YOU ARE A SLAVE ! ! !
You are not only a slave component, but because you are voting you are literally in servitude due to the criminal activity induced by the fourteenth amendment..
In truth, you are a slave pursuant to the insurgents' thirteenth amendment.. /3\
The 14th amendment not only creates a police state (socialist state=police state); but it also allows the easy redistribution of Human Resources throughout America for use in industry by the Elite, as required by The Machine..
Moreover, this plot allows government[s] administrative agencies to seize property without the due process provided by a real court proceeding (communist dicta)..
The current de facto legal system is a far cry from the de jure (rightful) legal system established by the real Constitution..
However, there is..THE REMEDY..

THE BLUEPRINT..
To achieve statism (which is really a form of communism or federalism) /1\ a blueprint is needed..
The Blueprint was written in the year 1848, by two men named Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels..
The Blueprint is entitled the Communist Manifesto..
The Communist Manifesto was designed and intended to put everything in the hands of the State, with the Elite in control. (Marxist equivalent: Ruling Class, i.e. The Tools.)
Below are definitions from the American Heritage Dictionary that define communism..
There are two different definitions: (1) the bogeyman; and (2) the plan as applied..
communism.. 1. A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members. 2. Communism. a. A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people. b. The Marxist-Leninist version of Communist doctrine that advocates the overthrow of capitalism by the revolution of the proletariat..
communism.. An economic and social system under which all means of production are owned by the workers and controlled by the state for the common good. In most cases, economic and political control is held by a single, often authoritarian party. Economic growth and planning are controlled by a central authority..
(i.e. Socialist totalitarian (so-called) Democracy as established)
As you can see there are many different variations of the definition of . . . COMMUNISM. The foregoing definitional variations of communism stand to reason..
Marx, in his Communist Manifesto, states the following about the conditions that set forth the basis for communism, which are referred to as planks:
These measures will, of course, be different in different countries. Nevertheless, in most advanced countries, the following will be pretty generally applicable..
If you examine the Manifesto you will find that most of its dicta have been applied in the United States of America through various applications of fact and law..
As most people have been through The Instruction, they are largely unaware of Communism's prevailing presence..
Although both definitions of communism are somewhat applicable in the United States, pursuant to the second definition above please note the following..
Economic system owned by the workers and controlled by the state- Corporations and stocks are regulated by government..
Political control by an authoritarian party- Franklin D. Roosevelt (communist/political criminal) said There is not a dimes worth of difference between the Republicans and Democrats (see definition: Dog-and-Pony Show)..
Economic growth and planning are controlled by a central authority- The private Federal Reserve System controlling interest rates/economy; and the faction responsible for Income Tax- Plank 2- Communist Manifesto..
ERGO.. Communism exists as defined by the American Heritage Dictionary emphasis on American Heritage), not as presented by the Television i.e. the Puppet Press (media), or by what you have been told (indoctrinated with) in school (both upper and lower education))..
To continue, anyone with common sense can see through The Blueprint..
It was designed to enslave mankind through its dicta..
Its chief purposes, among other corrupt and devious things, are to.. steal land, implement a private bank, control children, eliminate families, control education, eliminate religion, promote immoral behavior, and eliminate countries and nationalities (which was accomplished by the fourteenth amendment under the color of law)..
The puppets (the ones who obey) know Communism's true purpose..
There are those, however, who truly believe that Communism is a viable solution to the worlds problems. Their conviction is so strong, that they want to be communists!
The sad truth is they have simply been brainwashed by the World Elite to act as an attack force against the middle class..
In the Communist Manifesto, Marx craftily diverted the attention of the trained army (lower working class) and convinced them that the middle class is the problem..
Again, the Look over there, while we do it here ruse..
A totalitarian governmental system is needed (i.e. so-called Democracy) to impose Socialism so that the goals of man can be bent toward accomplishing the agenda of The State (statism)..
Simply put.. Socialism is the control of the people by government. It is all intertwined to bring about the World Elite's agenda of unknowing servitude..
Do you recall that in the section entitled The Product it was stated that even the women have been pushed into a career situation?.
Then, you are no doubt aware that women have been told they have a right to work..
In reality they have been conditioned. Plank 8 of the Communist Manifesto states..
Equal OBLIGATION of all to work..
Obligation means they have to work!.
So women have been programmed to think that they have the right to work, when actually they are programmed to work..
Rights have nothing to do with it. THEY wanted women to work so THEY could extract Income Tax from them..
In the Section entitled The Contract, it was mentioned that the United States of America is not supposed to have a Democracy it is guaranteed a governmental system in form of a Republic..
Democracy (so-called) is necessary in so far as it is the foundation from which to achieve Socialism's destructive effects..
See the quote which exemplifies this fact..
Democracy is indispensable to Socialism.. V. I. Lenin
And further, here is another quote from the author of the Communist Manifesto:
"Socialism leads to Communism.." Karl Marx
This is How the plot works..
The Elite (Tools) have the financial capability of tapping the constitutional system of law (money; lawmaking; attorneys; etc.).
Therefore, they are immune from heavy taxation and other liabilities caused by the stealthily imposed Marxist dicta. Be aware, however, that there are Loopholes.. /2\
Thus, the lower class is taking down (strictly feeds off) the middle class. If you do not understand this logic, please refer back to the Part entitled The State.. /3\
Again, so-called communism is nothing more than a World Elite plot operating in the guise of the State, whose function is to create a slave force..
This is all grandly choreographed to fund the orchestrated debt that THEY created..
THEY are benefiting from the book entry interest created by the fruits of Americans' labor..
The book entry slave credit is then used as purchasing power by the Elite..
America's wealth is being stolen from them via the system implemented by The Blueprint.. The upper-classes also benefit, since their Corporations profit from the same slave-force..
All in all, Americans are just..THE COMMODITY..

Federalism. Term which includes interrelationships among the states and relationship between the states and the federal government.
Communism. An economic and social system under which all means of production are owned by the workers and controlled by the state (creature of the state- corporations; stocks) for the common good (whatever). In most cases, economic and political control is held by a single, often authoritarian party (republicans and democrats - 14th amendment system). Economic growth and planning are controlled by a central authority (the private federal reserve system controls the economy).

THE INSTRUCTION..
To engineer a global economic slave force trained to create The Product, and also develop a covert scheme to steal all the land, is a colossal undertaking..
To accomplish it would require a special army slowly and subtly indoctrinated into the World Elite's agenda..
This in itself would be a major undertaking involving the marketing of ideologies designed to sway many minds to the Elite's cause..
This is what we refer to as the The Instruction..
The Instruction is needed to indoctrinate The Tools (puppets) for the World Elite. All such tools are then sent out to create the economic slave force through various private educational institutions which then run The State..
Below is a quote from such a tutorial manual..
Basically, Man is an animal. He is an animal which has been given a civilized veneer. Man is a collective animal, grouped together for his own protection before the threat of the environment. Those who so group and control him must have in their possession specialized techniques to direct the vagaries and energies of the animal Man toward greater efficiency in the accomplishment of the goals of the State..
Here is another quote from the same manual..
The individual is an economic organism, in that he requires a certain amount of food, a certain amount of water, and must hold within himself a certain amount of heat in order to live. When he has more food than he can eat, more clothing than he needs to protect him, he then enters upon a certain idleness which dulls his wits and awareness, and makes him prey to difficulties which, in a less toxic state, he would have foreseen and avoided. Thus, we have a glut of being a menace to the individual..
Here is another quote from the same manual showing the subversive actions..
As every chair of psychology in the United States is occupied by persons in our connection, the consistent employment of such texts is guaranteed. They are given the authoritative ring, and they are carefully taught. Constant pressure in the legislatures of the United States can bring about legislation to the effect that every student attending a high school or university must have classes in psychology..
First, analysis of the last quote reveals that the ones who distributed this information had a direct agenda..
They stated that they had infiltrated the field of psychology in America, and that they were going to push for legislation to induce all Americans to take psychology..
This is to institute their objective.. Creating an Economic Slave Force by way of The State..
Now by analyzing the first two quotes we learn that man is a mechanism used for productivity, and that the productivity to be directed toward the goals of The State..
The second quote states that a person slides into an idle state if he has too much comfort; thus, this is when he can be taken advantage of. Moreover, he is not profitable when he has only the necessities..
Simply put, people have to be kept busy and distracted so they do not understand what is being done to them. This is the purpose of the Socialist State: To make People Weak and Complacent, and to keep them busy with things that are of no importance (e.g. sports)..
This agenda fits within the definition of Statism, at lease as regards putting economic planning in the hands of The State..
In reference to the above quotes, you will be astonished to find that they were taken from a training manual released sometime in the 1920s..
It was later used in a Wisconsin University to indoctrinate an army of subversive operatives. That University, which mind you was/is in the United States of America, was Lenin University..
Yes.. you are correct.. it was named after V. I. Lenin, the communist leader of Russia..
Accordingly, the name of the manual was entitled, A Synthesis of the Russian Textbook on Psychopolitics. /1\
Ergo, COMMUNISM in America..
Oh, by the way, now you can be told who said, The surest way to overthrow an existing social order is to debauch the currency. This was voiced by V. I. Lenin, communist leader, and Tool of the World Elite..
Understand that it is the same plot just a different part of the world..
As a means of implementing The Vehicle, the World Elite used such so-called communist methods to debauch our currency, thus imposing on Americans the current system of monetary servitude; a system that includes the income tax more Communist dicta..
During the entire 20th century, so-called communist operatives were in America fulfilling their agenda via the fourteenth amendment..
Maybe this is why Senator Joseph Raymond McCarthy was branded a kook?.
More dicta from that same communist manual follows..
One of the first and foremost missions of the psychopolitician is to make an attack upon Communism and insanity synonymous. It should become the definition of insanity, of the paranoid variety, that A paranoid believes he is being attacked by Communists.. Thus, at once the support of the individual so attacking Communism will fall away and wither..
McCarthy fell away and withered..
The McCarthy ordeal may have been a test, or possibly it was just a smokescreen to initiate what has been executed in America (look over there, while we do it here)..
Of course, maybe the McCarthy ordeal was real [? ? ?]..
In any case, as THEY had already infiltrated all the American universities with The Instruction, everyone in America was already brainwashed (which is still going on, as all universities are run by Elitists)..
As a matter of common sense, it is obvious that the World Elite control the World (puppets) via their wealth. Since THEY were able to implement The Vehicle, it stands to reason that THEY had (have) the financial power and the means to implement The Instruction..
Be that as it may, so-called communism is just a name to bring about creation of a State in order to control the masses (the smaller fish), thereby creating an economic slave force (see statement of first quote above) for the Elite's (puppets) personal benefit..
In case you haven't quite gotten it, so-called Communists (usually tools e.g. labor unions) believe they are fighting a foe dubbed Capitalists..
In reality the so-called Capitalists are actually the so-called Communists, and the so-called Communists are actually the so-called Capitalists../2\
That is, THEY are the ones fueling the fire via so-called communism..
In other words, it is the Mega-Capitalists (World Elite) on a stealthy and progressive Economic Agenda..
How this is accomplished will be explained in the next Part.
The agenda was accomplished by..THE BLUEPRINT..

THE GAME..
This is where things become a bit complicated..
Of course The Cabal was used to bring the The System into being, with the fourteenth amendment as the main device..
To get us to the present point, however, a series of other things took place..
As was revealed earlier in the Part entitled The System, the entire objective of the World Elite is to create a global Economic Slave Force..
To create the slave force THEY must make sure The Tools, and the subjects of The Tools (the smaller fish), are not aware of what is being orchestrated..
To do so, the World Elite have to manipulate the language; in other words The Game is instituted..
Accordingly, the World Elite are constantly introducing new language to create confusion amongst (what THEY refer to as) the Masses..
To best illustrate, let us look at the definition of country from a law dictionary of the 1850's, and then compare it with a current definition..
country.. By country is meant the state of which one is a member. Every man's country is in general the state in which he happens to have been born.. /1\
country.. The territory occupied by an independent nation or people, or the inhabitants of such territory. In the primary meaning "country" denotes the population, the nation, the state, or the government, having possession and dominion over a territory.. /2\
The first definition is simple.. a state is a country..
The second, although having a lot of information in it, is confusing..
By the second definition a layman could not interpret that a state is a country, nor could an attorney. THEY have dumbed down the American people (even the lawyers) to the point where we no longer know the real law (truth)..
By the way, the above example is part of the Fourteenth Amendment cover up. THEY want everyone to think that America is one country and nation..
When you finish the next three Parts, you will fully understand why this is being done..
The Game is the main tactic to cover up the fact that the slave force is enlisted through their own consent via what is called Voluntary Servitude..
In other words, THEY must conceal the fact that the American people (the smaller fish) are being covertly consumed by the Elite (the bigger fish)..
Note.. It was brought to your attention that the slave force is in Voluntary Servitude..
Another way to make sure the slave force is indifferent to what is really going on is to make them believe they are contributing to society on a global basis..
Ultimately, for the World Elite, this is an imperative and prudent measure; and, now you know the ulterior motive of THEY. If this still seems unclear, you will understand when you finish The Commodity..
By way of investigating language clues that may explain the main objective of the World Elite, the following term helps to clearly illustrate their goal..
statism, n. The practice or doctrine of giving a centralized government control over economic planning and policy.. /3\
Now that we have introduced the term Statism, please take note and understand that as far as defining the main objective of the World Elite, this is just the Term of the Day..
You must realize that THEY are constantly introducing new language to create confusion.. In other words: The Game..
You will discover that there is other language carefully crafted by the Elite to serve a specific purpose that ties in with and supports the intended agenda of the statism concept we exposed above..
Of course. . .
this other language is exposed in..THE INSTRUCTION..

THE CABAL..
To continue your Deprogramming, you must understand that the World Elite needed a plan to carry out their plot. The plot being The Cabal, the 14th amendment..
The fourteenth amendment can be labeled a cabal not only because it was a secret plot contrived by a group of conspirators, but also because it has been promoted to the people as being beneficial, when in fact it is quite injurious..
In actuality, its main purpose (besides the effects listed earlier) is to tacitly involve everyone in America in commercial activity..
Of course, all Americans are being treated as if they are in commercial activity anyway, though actually most are not. This presumption of commercial involvement is due to the dual citizenshipcreated by the fourteenth amendment..
The presumption of commercial involvement can be deemed as an act of criminal fraud on the part of anyone who endorses the fourteenth amendment..
Cabal is basically just another word for conspiracy..
Some say to have the elements of a conspiracy, its execution has to be hidden, i.e. not out in the open. This is false; see the definition of conspiracy below..
conspiracy, n. 1. An agreement to perform together an illegal, wrongful, or subversive act. 2. A group of conspirators. 3. Law. An agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime or accomplish a legal purpose through illegal action. 4. A joining or acting together, as if by sinister design. /1\
As you can see the main elements constituting a conspiracy are that an illegal, wrongful, sinister or subversive act is committed by two or more people..
To allay any concerns that this is just another conspiracy theory, consider this quote from the Tool (cabalist) Franklin Delano Roosevelt..
Nothing in politics happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way..
As the fourteenth amendment was intentionally designed and implemented to achieve an evil and planned political purpose, the following defines what all participants are truly involved in..
political crime. In general, any crime directly against the government; e.g. treason; sedition. It includes any violent political disturbance without reference to a specific crime. See also Political offenses.. /2\
political offenses. As a designation of a class of crimes usually excepted from extradition treaties, this term denotes crimes which are incidental to and form a part of political disturbances; but it might also be understood to include offenses consisting in an attack upon the political order of things established in the country where committed, and even to include offenses committed to obtain any political object.. /2\
Although the fourteenth amendment was initiated during the Civil War, if someone comprehends its true objective, and fails to rectify the situation (misprision), he is then knowingly involved in the conspiracy..
That is to say.. all tools are conspirators..
To reiterate, under a constitutional system of government (republican form), the people are the true government..
Since the fourteenth amendment government is being used for an evil purpose, a crime is being committed against the sovereignty of the American people, and therefore the political offenses defined above are fitting..
Furthermore, as the federal government insists on controlling the American educational system, and accordingly have chosen not to disclose this information (nor have they attempted to teach law to Americans which is being controlled by The Bar Association monopoly), these factors establish prima facie (which means on its face) elements of a conspiracy..
To institute this evil act orchestrated by the World Elite, The Tools and others have to be confused with.. THE GAME..

THE FUED..
The power to establish the United States Government is lawfully obtained from the American people. Via their land, the American people are the true sovereign power; much the same as a monarch is to his kingdom. To put it another way: Without the American people there cannot be a government; thus all land belongs to the people (as bequeathed by God), NOT to the government..
Due to the fraudulent actions of the fourteenth amendment, an American is taken out of his state and then transplanted in Washington DC..
Americans then become part of what is referred to as a feudal a system..
In other words . . . The Feud..
For most, this creates a serf situation..
A serf is fundamentally a slave or vassal. The Feud system is defined by the following series of terms..
feud, n. See fee. [Medieval Latin feudum, of Germanic origin.] /1\
fee, n. 4. Law. An inherited or heritable estate in land. 5a. In feudal law, an estate in land granted by a lord to his vassal on condition of homage and service. Also called feud, fief. b. The land so held. /1\
feudalism, n. 1. A political and economic system of Europe from the 9th to about the 15th century, based on the holding of all land in fief or fee and the resulting relation of lord to vassal and characterized by homage, legal and military service of tenants, and forfeiture. 2. A political, economic, or social order resembling this medieval system. /1\
fiefdom, n. 1. The estate or domain of a feudal lord. 2. Something over which one dominant person or group exercises control. /1\
vassal, n. 1. A person who held land from a feudal lord and received protection in return for homage and allegiance. 2. A bondman; a slave. 3. A subordinate or dependent. /1\
serf, n. 1. originally, a slave. 2. a person in feudal servitude, bound to his master's land and transferred with it to a new owner. 3. a person who is oppressed or without freedom. /1\
servitude, n. 1.a. A state of subjection to an owner or a master. b. Lack of personal freedom, as to act as one chooses. 2. Forced labor imposed as a punishment for crime: penal servitude in labor camps. 3. Law. A right that grants use of another's property. /1\
Note some of the elements of the above definitions, such as..
a) a subordinate or dependent..
b) something over which one dominant person or group exercises control..
c) relation of lord to vassal and characterized by homage, legal and military service of tenants..
d) a political, economic, or social order resembling this medieval system..
Of course the dominant group is the Insurgent Governmental system established by the fourteenth amendment..
Since Americans have chosen to take benefits, such as Social Security, they are subordinates and/or dependents (vassals)..
Under a free state (or country), a man is obligated to defend his country; however, under the current totalitarian system (caused by the fourteenth amendment) if a person refuses to go to a private war, such as the Vietnam War, /2\ he is put in jail for failure to obey the lord (U.S. government)..
This is parallel to a vassal (serf) yielding to military service. That is, a vassal can be imprisoned; a freeman can not..
Furthermore, this is how the federal government has procured all the land in the several American republics (via the fourteenth amendment)..
Such public land inherently belongs to the people of any particular American republic. Accordingly, all Federal Parks are part of this feudal system..
In essence, this land has been stolen from the people of the several American republics due to their ignorance..
Of course the sum of the factors listed above is the political, economic, or social order resembling this medieval system. Ergo The Feud..
There is much more to this induced feudal situation; however, as we are just touching the surface in this Deprogramming session, we will not delve deeper at this time..
So, how does The Feud benefit the World Elite?.
There are many factors to be considered in regard to this question..
To name a few..
1) The public lands are rented out to companies. Perhaps to an Oil Corporation for drilling rights to extract oil present beneath the land. Purportedly everyone benefits (through taxation) through the collected leasing funds..
However, this is deemed a commercial enterprise, and constitutionally, the government cannot get involved in commercial enterprises. The New Governmental System can, however do these things..
2) It transforms the United States military into a private army to help the World Elite create their New World Order (which is designed to set up the same commercial/economic slave force around the world)..
This private military machine was recently utilized in the Gulf War to protect the oil interests of George Bush and other World Elitists..
3) The most pernicious factor is that the Fourteenth Amendment pulls everyone into a foreign jurisdiction (i.e. the federal government). There they can be controlled and taxed (income tax) by the federal government, thus enabling The Product to be easily collected from the masses (the smaller fish)..
When the fourteenth amendment takes an American out of his native state, he then loses the sovereign power as instituted and protected by the Constitution..
Moreover, a person who is naturalized as a U.S. citizen is considered an alien resident of the state he lives in..
Anyone who buys property does not own it as a true citizen or national under the law of nations.. It is owned under the privilege of being an alien living in the state as a resident. This holds true for any American national born or naturalized..
To achieve this debilitating status, the Fourteenth Amendment removes Americans from their natural state/nation and makes them part of a new nation the federal state/nation..
This action strips them of their natural rights; after which, Americans are strictly subordinate to the government, state and federal..
Again, may we bring to your attention that unknown to most Americans (as planned), they are unwittingly involved in Criminal Activity via section 2 of the fourteenth amendment..
The criminal activity . . . Voting..
Voting makes an American unconditionally subordinate to the federal and state governments..
Remember it was stated that you do not own anything..
As evidence of such, reference this statement made by the de facto Congress consisting of socialist based insurgents March 9, 1933..
The ownership of all property is in the state. The individual's so-called ownership is only by virtue of government that is law amounting to mere user, and use must be in accordance with law and subordinate to the necessities of the state.. /3\
Such has been established and progressively set up by the fourteenth amendment..
The era of Roosevelt was the next orchestrated blow which did away with our lawful money. This was to further implement the feudal system..
Actually, you do not own your land. It is an illusion. It can be taken at any time without true due process of law (due to the legal plot deviously established).
You must understand: Anytime the government[s] wants to hold something against you, they check whether you are a registered voter and then use it against you, because you have submitted to The Feud..
Consequently. . .
the 14th amendment is really to be considered..THE CABAL..

THE CONTRACT..
To continue in your education and Deprogramming, you must understand that a constitution is fundamentally The Contract between a society and its government..
To create a socialist state The Contract (the organic constitution) with the American people (of the several American republics) had to be broken..
For you to understand what a constitution is, the following definition is cited..
constitution, n. Abbr. cons., const., Const. The system of fundamental laws and principles that prescribes the nature, functions, and limits of a government or another institution. b. The document on which such a system is recorded.. /1\
The fundamental history of the Constitution for the American Union is..
1. The organic Constitution in 1787 (which is the original constitution of the American union)..
2. The Bill of Rights (Amendments 1-10) ratified 1791..
3. The Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth Amendments (the original 13th which has been replaced by the current one)..
4. The Fourteenth Amendment (which fundamentally establishes an alternate governmental system)..
To begin with, the original, or organic, Constitution (which sets up and governs the Union State [i.e. the State of the Union]) had two main purposes:
(1) to protect the union of American republics militarily;
and
(2) to govern trade and commerce between the American republics, and commerce of the Union internationally..
Second, the Bill of Rights was added to the organic constitution to protect the people; it was basically an agreement between the American republics (people) and the United States (federal government)..
It was of intended purpose was to protect the American republics (people) from the Union State (the federal government), which was created by the organic Constitution. The Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth Amendments were soon to follow as a legitimate part of the organic Constitution..
Third, after the Civil War, a New Federal Government was installed by the fourteenth amendment it also installed new state governments..
The fourteenth amendment created a new political system which was fundamentally adverse to the original Constitutional system and the law of nations.
The fourteenth amendment is one of the so-called reconstruction amendments, which are numbered the 13th, 14th and 15th..
The Fourteenth Amendment is somewhat a constitution in itself; actually the fourteenth amendment and the organic Constitution work concurrently to make a Government de facto..
Every amendment after the fourteenth is representative of the new governmental system which is fundamentally installed by insurgency..
Yes, the Civil War is where The Contract with the people was broken..
The constitutional government[s], as set fourth by the founding fathers, are not currently in place..
They have not been operational since the Civil War..
You must understand that you have been living a lie..
Accordingly, all participants in this governmental system (a totalitarian system), both state and federal, are, as a matter of law, referred to as Insurgents..
This Totalitarian System of government is what the insurgents, and others, refer to as a Democracy..
The fourteenth amendment was the instituting factor which enabled the implementation of the dictatorial Socialist State or Totalitarian System..
Pursuant to what we refer to as a b_stard governmental system, Article IV, section 4 of the organic Constitution guarantees each state of the Union a government in the form of a Republic NOT a so-called Democracy..
The term State means a Republic with a government..
The term Republic means the Land and the Nation people) of that land; hence, the term State is generally in reference to a government of any specific American Republic..
The founding fathers used this premise to create a government of the people a Republic..
The Union is actually a federation of the several American republics (states). The State for the federation (Union) is the federal government..
In the premise of the original constitution (organic), the federal state was not to house American peoples at large. The 14th Amendment creates citizens that are beholden to the federal government (State) over their own republic (state)..
The term Democracy is just a buzz-word used for the current totalitarian (socialist) system of government. This terminology game of the cabalists will be reviewed in a subsequent Part of this Deprogramming sequence..
In due course, this is where the two set of rules are set forth. The Rulers (big fish), who are part of the de facto system, know this and enjoy their natural rights under the protection of the original Constitution..
The ruled (little fish) are under the control of the insurgent governmental system (socialists) and do not enjoy their natural rights. Any rights they do have under the so-called (or referred to as) constitution, are ones they receive as a privilege from the federal government..
In other words.. The Bill of Rights is being handed out as The Rulers see fit..
Once you start to read case law and learn to interpret the United States Code, you will understand that there are two systems of law in operation..
Moreover, the way the fourteenth amendment is instituted, even though you believe you own your land, your land (property) can be taken from you at any time without just compensation. Unperceived by all Americans is the chilling fact they are unknowingly involved in Criminal Activity (by design) via the 14th amendment..
You may be asking, How does this benefit the World Elite in their quest for power?.
Well, you must understand, it creates..THE FUED..

/1\ American Heritage Dictionary.
THE STATE..
Actually, what the New Deal instituted was government based on Socialism..
Under a Socialist regime, The State dictatorially governs and takes care of the people..
Accordingly, socialism ultimately leads to the people being tyrannically forced into tacit serfdom/servitude..
In contraposition, in a Socialist State people are of a self-governing nature, which is accomplished through solid family bonds and a strong sense of LOCAL community (emphasis added)..
The organic Constitution established this under common law practices..
You must understand that the introduction of this Socialist Fictional Family is the reason America has seen such horrific moral decay in the past 50 years..
Once people learn that The State is willing to take care of them, they no longer need their natural families..
Incidentally, it is believed that this is one reason Americans have become so seemingly self-centered..
Please also understand that the grotesque effects generated by introduction of the Socialist State were known well in advance; and that The State was implemented solely to create the maximum amount of The Product for THEY..
It is simple..
The Socialist State breaks up families, forcing more people have to work to support themselves . . . Ergo, more Income Tax (The Product)!.
As history repeats itself, this is not a new story. Many philosophers of history have warned against this inflicted form of tacit servitude..
On the premise of the Socialist State, let us look at a quote from The Social Contract or Principles of Political Right by French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau; Mr. Rousseau stated the following..
Under bad governments, this equality is only apparent and illusory: it serves only to keep the pauper in his poverty and the rich man in the position he has usurped. In fact, laws are always of use to those who possess and harmful to those who have nothing: from which it follows that the social state is advantageous to men only when all have something and none too much.. /1\
What Mr. Rousseau meant is..
A bad government will keep the Elite in power; the more laws there are the more power, control and money the Elite can manage to keep for themselves; accordingly, it keeps the poor from advancing..
So it logically follows that when the ruling elite want to maximize their profits by committing theft on a national, federal or global scale, the socialist state is the ultimate means to achieve that end..
And in further reference to the learned convictions of Jean Jacques Rousseau, Roman Senator Publius Cornelius Tacitus stated that..
The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.. /2\
These two great men of history concur..
More government means more corruption..
To reinforce this fact, Mr. Rousseau candidly states that a government based on socialism is a vehicle of thievery by the ones in control and power..
Accordingly, most of this elite faction (The Tools) have been Programmed to believe that you (the common masses) are incompetent, and therefore need to be controlled. Such people have the requisite arrogant dictator qualities, and fall into the hands of THEY..
Of course, some of this elite faction believe that they are doing justice; however, they fail to realize that they are just puppets of a higher master..
The others realize who the true master is and because of their greed. . . Obey..
Nonetheless, both sets of Tools are oppressing Americans, and ultimately, under the guise of caring for people, each faction is engaging in tyranny..
Naturally, the original Constitution did not allow the formulation of a Socialist State..
To create such a state you need to.. break .. THE CONTRACT

THE DEAL..
To deceive Americans into unknowingly submitting to a life of servitude, the government (run by Tools cognizant and uncognizant) offers them a Deal..
To accomplish this feat, the masses (or smaller fish) must be appeased.. Accordingly, they are offered government doles in the form of handouts, such as social security, loans, etc., etc..
The particular Deal we are speaking of is the deal issued by the 32nd President of the United States de facto, Franklin Delano Roosevelt..
He offered the American people the New Deal. Roosevelt, without any doubt, was a puppet (Tool) of the World Elite..
At the time Roosevelt became President, The Vehicle (money system) was already in place..
In fact, there were two money systems in place: (1) the Constitutional money system, based on Gold and Silver; and (2) the money system based on thin air, implemented by the World Elite (the Moneychangers).
Just before the Great Depression, a huge amount of the money based on thin air was dumped into circulation..
This caused hyper-inflation, which in turn caused the Great Depression (by design)..
You may wonder why it was dubbed the Great Depression and not the Big Depression, or the Depression of '29, etc..
It was given the title Great to evidence the World Elite's pride in what they had accomplished..
The Great Depression was executed to get the masses (or smaller fish) to submit to Roosevelt's New Deal..
After being beset with a few years of inflicted economic genocide, Americans were willing to capitulate to The Deal..
This orchestrated plot can be evidenced by the following..
The surest way to overthrow an existing social order is to debauch the currency..
The preceding quote was from another puppet (Tool) of the World Elite (Moneychangers)..
This is leading up to a very rude awaking, so at this juncture, it is best that you are not aware of who made the above statement..
After The Deal was effectively in place, by Roosevelt's order (Executive Order a de facto function) all Americans Gold was confiscated..
At that point, Lawful Money (gold and silver) was all but finished..
This theft of the Lawful Money allowed the privately owned Federal Reserve System to control the so-called inflation factor..
To get Americans to submit to servitude under a master, the scam must look attractive..
To make the New Deal appealing, a dole entitled Social Security was offered..
To make the New Deal dole system work effectively, Americans had to be issued a number..
This number allowed the federal government to institute the tax for Social Security, while simultaneously enabling the collection of an income tax..
The Social Security dole was just a sales tool to secure harvest of The Product (Interest)..
Further, to generate The Product, Americans have been told that war creates a good economy..
If one would use common sense, one would see that wars not only create tremendous debt, but more importantly they are tragic engines of mass murder..
Generally, wars are popularized and marketed to the people on some strongly emotional pretext. For example, most of the 20th century's wars have been sold on the pretense of fighting a foreign bogeyman, the most prominent being the so-called Cold War (Communists)..
Other wars were promoted on the ploy of humanitarianism..
Handily (for the World Elite), the Income Tax was needed to pay for the staggering debts resulting from World Wars I and II..
Actually the World Elite intentionally created these wars to solidify their Funny Money system currently in place in America..
You must understand that the main purpose of these wars was to create debt so The Product could be inflicted on the American people..
Accordingly, we will now reference the seditiously inserted Federal Reserve and the planned purpose for their bogus War Scrip debt notes..
Federal Reserve notes. Form of currency issued by Federal Reserve Banks in the likeness of non-interest bearing promissory note payable to bearer on demand..
The federal reserve note (e.g. one, five, ten, etc. dollar bill) is the most widely used paper currency..
Such reserve notes have replaced silver and gold certificates which were backed by silver and gold; such notes are direct obligations of the United States..
Of course the direct obligations of the United States reflects the national debt. The so-called United States (which is to be understood as the American people) has been bankrupt since the Presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt..
Due to these notes (debt), everything you purchase ANYTHING! is purchased with debt..
Consequently, people are the replacement for gold and silver..
So the next question is, What was actually instituted by the World Elite to efficiently create and collect The Product?.
It was..The State..
THE TOOLS..
In order for The Product to be efficiently procured for the World Elite, it is essential that the administrators of The System, or The Tools, control, and furthermore, appease, the masses (or smaller fish)..
How is this accomplished?. you ask..
To appease and motivate The Tools, the upper echelon (the government, or the ruling class most of whom are lawyers) is given the knowledge of law; whereby they enjoy true freedom under natural law the masses (or smaller fish), however, do not..
Consequently, there are two sets of rules..
One Set of Rules for The Tools; and One Set of Rules for the masses (or smaller fish)..
Please be aware that The Law is actually The Rules..
Please also note that there is more than one constitution in American law. These multiple sources of authority manufacture and set forth the two sets of rules..
In due course..
the World Elite need The Tools to initiate the deal..
THE VEHICLE..
Up to this point evidence has been established for an Economic Food Chain of sorts. This Food Chain is created by natural social structure/order..
In any natural or social system, the strong will always consume the weak..
The World Elite (the big fish) will therefore naturally exploit (consume) the lower classes (the smaller fish)..
Why is The Vehicle needed?.
To create The Product of course..
Without these two important factors present, tacit slavery cannot be achieved or sustained..
The best way to evidence The Vehicle is to illustrate the following quote..
Give me control over a nation's currency, and I care not who makes its laws..
The preceding was stated by Mayer Amschel Rothschild, a World Elitist. Which brings us to the crux of the problem..
America's Currency..
Unascertained by most Americans, the Federal Reserve System (The Vehicle) is a Privately Owned Bank System with several private investors (all of whom are World Elitists)..
The purpose of The Vehicle is to financially manipulate the transfer of people's property (labor, payments of interest, etc.) to the hands of the World Elite..
At this point you may be questioning,
What does the currency really have to do with the economy?.
And why would an Elitist like Rothschild want to control it?.
Furthermore, you may be wondering, If the law is so important to my being controlled, why did Rothschild not care who made the laws?.
In answer to the first question, the person who controls the currency can control the people..
Because the Federal Reserve's money is not backed with any substance (it is merely based on book entries), the currency can be easily jockeyed; thus, once the people are dependent on the system, they are effortlessly enslaved to the owners of the system..
As to the second question, Rothschild, and those like him, understood that there would never be a shortage of people with a strong urge to rule over others; that is to say, people with dictatorial traits..
Because he understood human nature, Rothschild was not worried about these kinds of things. He knew that such human tools would naturally be driven to succeed, inevitably becoming enslaved by the system themselves. Accordingly, they too would be controlled like everyone else..
At this juncture, many people may understand what is transpiring. History does repeat itself, and the World Elite are actually neo-moneychangers..
They could be thought of in the same way as the moneychangers mentioned in the Bible..
The exclusive goal of the World Elite (big fish/moneychangers) was to create interest (The Product)..
In order to create interest (The Product), their money system (The Vehicle) had to be installed..
After that was complete, an Income Tax could then be implemented (thus THEY would perpetually be feeding off the smaller fish)..
To bring the Economic Food Chain (The System) into existence, the World Elite needed a resource by which to procure The Product from The Vehicle..
As inferred above, that resource is to be considered the tools..
THE PRODUCT..
As you are no doubt aware, the government (and others) constantly put the economy on a pedestal, almost as if it were something to revere..
There is some merit in that belief; however, let us think outside the box for a moment..
Have you noticed that in school there is a strong push to program you for a career?.
A thought is posed.. Why must the average person work and toil his entire life to achieve a so-called retirement?.
We may also ask..
Why, over the past half century, have women been pressured into developing careers outside the home?.
Why do you think this is?.
Why must everyone have to work full time per se?.
Isn't it possible that a person could completely pay for (or inherit) his own house and land early in life?.
If that could be achieved, then wouldn't that person need only pay for the bare necessities . . . and then . . . ENJOY life thereafter?.
Of course, such case is not the case for most Americans. It appears that the Debt Cycle never ends for them..
Why do you think that is true?.
that is, other than addiction to Materialism..
This query leads us to the crux of the problem..
The purpose of perpetual debt is to create The Product called profit or gain (i.e. interest)..
To effectively create The Product (interest) people (the public) must be induced to remain in perpetual debt..
In this scheme, The Product is ever renewable. . .
that is, so long as people remain in debt..
Accordingly, people are enslaved by debt; and everyone must be continually working or creation of The Product ceases..
Such a bold plot would require a cunning enslavement of the people, brought about in a completely stealthy manner. To develop such a sly plan several parameters have to be invoked..
Of course, since the World Elite (also referred to as THEY) are the ones receiving The Product; it would stand to reason that THEY are the ones with the resources and the incentive, and the money and power to initiate the vehicle..
THE SYSTEM..
A relevant quote from The Matrix is revisited..
The Matrix is a system Neo. That system is our enemy. And when you're inside, and look around, what do you see . . . Businessmen . . . Teachers . . . Lawyers . . . Carpenters . . . the very minds of the people we are trying to save..
But until we do, these people are still a part of that system, and that makes them our enemy..
You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured so hopelessly dependent on the systemthat they will fight to protect it..
MORPHEUS, The Matrix..
To define the scope of The System is a feat of great magnitude, this due to the complexity of its purpose..
Most would think The System is the way the government operates; however, it is much more than that..
It is the way you act, think, work, and handle your daily affairs, among many other things too numerous to mention..
As most of us have gone to a Public School, we all have been indoctrinated to the ways of The System through what we call . . . social programming..
Consequently, most people in America are wholly dependent on The System, unable to function without it..
This artificial dependency imports the quality of being Subordinate to the State, which is the true purpose of The System..
This will be more fully understood as you progress further with your Deprogramming. For now, however, you must understand that the prime objective of The System is solely economic..
It's primary design objective is to create a commodity or several commodities..
In other words its purpose is to create . . .
The Product..
Welcome to the machine..
IN THE CORPORATE WORLD. . .
You are not a man or woman You are a thing. . . part of a group or an economic unit hooked into the grid of society a willing slave to your bank account, a willing slave to your credit cards, a willing slave to your school loans. With every new purchase using credit, with every advancement in what you perceive to be life requires a government or bank loan, you sink further into debt and further into voluntary bondage. This debt allows those with money to enslave and control you.
THIS IS WHO YOU ARE. . .
When you're born you become a number. As the number, you reap profit as you grow and work in an illusionary free system to help build the collective tax base. The tax base in turn is used to form and engage in a class system that feeds the wealthy. The vast numbers that make up the fabricated American State are used as a slave force to help fund and establish an Industrial Union through income taxation as directed by the likes of the Communist Manifesto. You unwittingly work for the good of the orchestrated global family for the benefit of the controlling class.
THIS IS HOW DEBT CONTROLS YOU. . .
Benjamin Franklin said, When you run into debt, you give another power over your liberty.. And under the law of God as set forth by Proverbs 22:7 The borrower is SERVANT to the lender.. As you work further into debt, you give more of your life away to those with whom you are borrowing, not to mention being in willing disobedience to God. The controlling class of the world owns and operates the banking system and the Federal Reserve. They dictate the economy, the momentary values of the world, and how you will pay back what you owe. In the end, you will have spent your life in serious debt, because you believe that it is the only way to survive as a functional American..
THIS IS THE ILLUSION. . .
You live in a society where you believe you exist as an man or a woman..
You believe you are bettering yourself and working your way toward an goal of financial independence; but in reality, you exist to better the global economy..
You exist as a source of life for the ruling class..
In the real world, you are blinded by the illusion of necessity. . .
Throughout history, man has tried with varying rates of failure to control other men for the purpose of gaining more power..
Poor men want to be rich, rich men want to be king, and kings want to be god..
This adage has proved true time and time again. Today, in the United States, more than 250 million people have bought into this adage and exist in a system created for global corporate profit. Unfortunately, the real world offers broader opportunities for success to those in a position to take advantage. At the same time, it scars those who can not reap its benefits.
You are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else, you were born into bondage, born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. . . a prison, for your mind..
Morpheus; the Matrix
The Matrix..A true perspective..
Important Message..
There has been a tremendous breakthrough in the Communication between the ZION GROUP and the MATRIX GROUP..
The movie is the Communication that contains express statements and visuals describing the bifurcation of the society and your relationship to it..
Care must be taken when describing and decoding the information for the uninformed that is coming from within the MATRIX by way of the Communication..
The uninformed cannot be told about the MATRIX, they must experience it..
The Communication rightly explains to them that the MATRIX is the world pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth..
It makes you a slave. A prison for your mind..
If you attempt to expose the uninformed to too much light, you will blind them..
The Communication is the story of the Gospel of the Scripture, but it is set within the framework of a Greek-science-fiction-drama..
The leading character is named Neo. He is played by Keanu Reeves. The word Neo in Greek means new. Neo is the new man or the new Adam come to save the people of ZION..
But first, he must die and be resurrected by the Trinity..
Once resurrected, he will save the world by taking people out of the MATRIX and into the land of ZION..
The problem is that in the beginning, Neo does not know who he is or where he is..
He first must be brought out of the land of the MATRIX and learn who he is..
He is extracted by a team of Zionists led by their leader, Morpheus, who is played by Laurence Fishburne..
The woman Trinity, played by Carrie-Anne Moss, is one of the principal person from the Zion group that communicates with people in the MATRIX..
Together, Morpheus represents God the Father; Trinity represents God the Holy Spirit (who breathes life back into Neo and brings the message to the MATRIX); and Neo represents God the Son..
Their team of helpers are called the people of Zion..
They consult the ORACLE, which represents the Holy Scripture..
The ORACLE does not judge good from evil, but is a guide to show the path upon which the people of Zion must go..
The people of Zion use a vessel named the NEBUCHADNEZZAR as a means of travel within the MATRIX..
Allied against the Zionists is the MATRIX..
The MATRIX is the world which has deceived all the people therein to fall into a dreamlike sleep..
In this condition, the people are warehoused in large storage facilities..
The people are physically hooked up to the cells in this warehouse by tubes that both feed them and extract electrical and heat energy from them to run the machines of the world who have taken over control..
The tubes also feed the people in the MATRIX computer generated thoughts programmed into MATRIX computers..
Therefore, life in the MATRIX is nothing more than an incredibly-complex computer program created by the MATRIX to conceal the real intent of raising and harvesting human beings to provide electrical energy to run the machines which control the MATRIX..
These electronic thoughts fed to the people in the MATRIX create a substitute for real thinking and real thoughts and real experience..
The people in the MATRIX only believe that they are alive and experiencing their lives. Their bodies never physically leave the cells in which they are kept. But to their minds, they appear to be living a normal existence with a job, personal relationships, hobbies, and the like. In the MATRIX, everyone is united as in artificial intelligence..
Your world is a computer program that appears real to you..
There is a group that works for the MATRIX called the Agents..
These Agents are not real people, but sentient computer programs which give the Agents supernatural powers..
Their job is to locate and destroy people who have either physically disconnected from the MATRIX, or who are within the MATRIX but are receiving unauthorized communications from people outside the MATRIX..
The name of the leading Agent is SMITH, who represents SATAN, a totally evil entity out to destroy any living being who would attempt to physically leave the MATRIX..
All communications with people within the MATRIX are done through the MATRIX computers..
The communication can be made by way of a phone connection (or modem connection) to the MATRIX computer which in turn communicates with the person in the MATRIX over the direct computer link to the person's mind..
Once a person is physically removed from the MATRIX, that person never again physically goes into the MATRIX, but is mentally projected into the MATRIX by computer..
Before Neo comes out of the MATRIX and learns who he is, Neo is captured by the Agents and taken to an interrogation. Agent Smith says..
O.K. Mr. Anderson. I see a man sitting before me who has two lives [one in the law forum of the MATRIX and one in the law forum of Zion]..
Your first life is as a man named Thomas A. Anderson. In this life you have an SSN, you pay your taxes. You work as a computer programmer for a software development company..
Your second life is as a man named Neo. Neo has committed almost every computer crime in the book [in our law forum]. Only one of these lives has a future..
Which life is that going to be?
The leader of the resistance movement is named Morpheus..
This, like Neo, is also a Greek name. You might not be familiar with this name. I wasn?t. The name means he who forms, or molds..
Morpheus was the Greek god of dreams..
The Encyclopedia Mythica says..
He lies on an ebony bed in a dim-lit cave. He appears to humans in their dreams in the shape of a man..
He is responsible for shaping dreams, or giving shape to the beings which inhabit dreams..
Morpheus... Is mentioned as the son of Hypnos, the god of sleep..
Morpheus is the man who, with the help of others, extracts Neo from the Matrix and leads him to resolve who he is and how Neo can save the people from the Matrix..
The name MORPHEUS is also a computer game by Piranha Interactive Publishing, Inc..
Imagine a world where you died but your dreams lived on..
The adventure begins with you as an explorer, separated from your party, aboard the ship Herculania [in the movie, the ship's name is the NEBUCHADNEZZAR..
You are looking to resolve the legacy of your father who has disappeared in the region 30 years earlier..
You become despondent, certain of your impending death, drifting between strange and foreboding dreams..
This game could well be a semi outline for the movie MATRIX..
What led Neo to question his life in the MATRIX?
At one time, Morpheus asks him..
You don't like the idea of not being in control of your own life, do you?
And Neo answers in the affirmative..
Neo's name is an anagram for the ONE or the savior..
In a discussion with the Agent SMITH, Neo was told..
Once we started thinking for you, it [the MATRIX] became our [not your] world..
Neo asked what would happen if you die in the MATRIX..
The answer is that you also die in the real world since the body cannot live without the mind..
Neo also asked what would happen if one tries to take on the Agents in the MATRIX..
The answer is..
They are all powerful in the MATRIX..
You cannot take them on in this [meaning the artificial world they created without rules] place..
The only way to prevail is to run from them and get out of the MATRIX..
That is because there is no rules [or law] in the MATRIX..
The rules and the law in the MATRIX is whatever the MATRIX computer programs say that it is..
The law is a fiction..
The MATRIX is run on public policy of containment of the living beings in the MATRIX..
Nothing more and nothing less..
There are many symbols in the Communication..
Neo, when mentally extracted from the MATRIX, is given the opportunity by the people of Zion whether he wants to be physically extracted also. He is warned that after being physically extracted, it will be very difficult to return to the MATRIX if he changes his mind..
Neo is offered a blue pill to take if he wants to mentally go back into the MATRIX and be mentally sedated, never again to question the MATRIX..
He is offered a red pill if he wants to physically come out..
The red pill is symbolic of the blood of Christ sacrificed to set man free from the things of this world..
The pills are also symbolic of the story of Alice in Wonderland and the song sung by Gracie Slick..
One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small..
Neo first meets the Zionists at a meeting spot called the Adam Street Bridge..
This is symbolically where Thomas A. Anderson, the first Adam in sin, crosses over into the hands of the Zionists to become the makings of the second Adam..
Thomas A. Anderson, when he was still within the MATRIX, was wakened by his alarm clock which read 9:18 A.M..
The number 9 stands for the fruits of the spirit [or the coming of a blessing or judgment] and 18 which represents bondage [the condition Thomas A. Anderson was in]..
Thomas A. Anderson lives in room number 101 in a hotel named The Heart of the City during his existence in the MATRIX..
The heart is the metaphor for the physical life of the person or entity..
It represents that Thomas A. Anderson was destined to be that life which is to come out of the MATRIX and give life to the people in the MATRIX..
Room number 101 deals with the numbers 10 = Fullness of law and responsibility and teaching, and 1 = Unity, primacy..
Thomas A. Anderson is the one that will apply the natural law to defeat the law of the MATRIX..
Trinity carries on her activities within the MATRIX out of room number 303. Room numbers 303 deals with the numbers 30 = blood of Christ, and 3 = division, perfection, and completeness..
Neo's physical removal from the matrix is a birthing cycle in which the cord was cut, the birthing fluids were present, and the escape afterwards from the pod where the birthing took place was through a pool of water (a baptism) into a new life..
There are several other washings [or baptisms] represented by the waters falling at the Adam Street Bridge, etc..
Look up the term Matrix in Black's 4th Law Dictionary..
You may be amazed..
It means..
In civil law, the protocol or first draft of a legal instrument, from which all copies must be taken..
Does this refer to the fact that all copies or all people within the MATRIX must follow the prime directive of the MATRIX to work and slave for the MATRIX?
The definition of Matrix Ecclesia. Lat. A mother church..
This term was anciently applied to a cathedral, in relation to the other churches in the same see, or to a parochial church, in relation to the chapels or minor churches attached to it or depending on it..
The Communication is trying to tell you that the MATRIX [or the world] is a mother church preaching a religion..
A religion based upon an illusion and false sense of being..
Did you ever get the impression that life as we know it is backward?
That what we perceive as reality is the illusion and what we perceive as illusion is the reality..
In the Communication, you get the picture from both sides of the mirror where the MATRIX is on the illusion side of the mirror and Zion is on the real side of the mirror..
The end of the Communication is nothing short of jubilant and heroic..
Neo makes a phone call to the people of the MATRIX..
He is feeding a direct communication into their mind by way of the computer hookup..
Neo tells them..
There are no rules..
You can do anything that you want to..
The law is done away with in their law forum..
Their constitution is dead..
Neo invites them to join the Zionists..
As proof that there is no law in their law forum, Neo flies away into the sky as a superman. [After all, if there is no law, there is no gravity in their law forum]..
May the force of Zion be your calling..

DSPs: Dangerously Stupid Persons in the War on Terrorism
History and reality say it'll happen -- and it'll look very familiar when it does.
July 24, 2002
If you were a conscientious citizen and you saw the makings of a bomb on someone's work bench or a plan for a terror attack on a computer screen, what would you do? Most people would report their suspicions to someone who could do something about them.
If that's what sensible people would do -- on their own -- then why does the Bush administration believe it needs an organized network of citizen-informers, controlled from Washington, D.C.?
The TIPS program (Terrorism Information and Prevention System), run by the Office of Homeland Security and the U.S. Justice Department, officially gets underway this summer. Using unions and large employers, it aims to recruit millions of delivery drivers, cable installers, utility repair people, mail carriers, and others who have access to your home or business. The federal government wants them to spy on you.
Now the truth is that the police have quietly used such people for decades. Investigators without enough evidence to get a warrant might arrange a convenient power outage so a friendly technician can be sent into your home. There he might "just happen to spot" evidence that you've been growing medical marijuana or collecting "illegal" weapons. In the small town where JPFO is located we've personally seen the sheriff go to the counter and ask for information on suspects. (The clerks never say, "Show me your subpoena"). Postal clerks have also been required for years to report various kinds of "suspicious" activity, mostly involving purchases of money orders.
So in that sense, TIPS is nothing new. And don't believe it if a Postal Service spokesperson says her agency has declined to participate. The P.O. changes its position daily on TIPS, it seems, but the fact is, postal workers are already spying on you.
DANGEROUSLY STUPID PERSONS ON PATROL
But think about what happens when millions of men and women with access to American homes are actually recruited and encouraged to spot "suspicious activity" everywhere they look. Think about what happens when the government creates a giant secret club with the meter reader as a member and you as an outsider.
Think about the TV-addled thousands who've always thought it would be cool to wear a badge and kick down doors but who didn't have the brains to get the job. Think about busybodies. Think about people who don't like you, your lifestyle, or your politics. Think about people who lead lives of quiet desperation, starving for the kind of drama and celebrity they normally get only from the National Enquirer. Think about well-meaning but misdirected Barney Fife's feeling responsible for the nation's "security." Think about people who are just plain, hysterical fools without an ounce of sense in their heads.
These are all DSPs -- Dangerously Stupid Persons. They may be harmless when left to their own devices. But when a government actively encourages them to fulfill their fantasies -- watch out.
Suddenly, these folks get to see themselves as Junior G-Men, Official Deputized Tin-Star Agents of the Guys in the White Hats.
And YOU are Bonnie and Clyde and Pretty Boy Floyd and Machine-Gun Kelly, all rolled into one. Not to mention Osama bin Laden and the head of the Cali cartel.
If you've enjoyed airport security checks conducted by arrogant, semi-educated, quasi-official agents of the government, just think how you're going to love it when they bring their "I'm with the government, I'm here to do whatever I want" act into your home or office. These people don't understand the Bill of Rights. They weren't taught about in their government schools. And they don't care two cents if they violate it -- or violate you.
YOU MIGHT BE A TARGET IF ...
Is there a reloading press on your work bench when the furnace repairman arrives? Does the telephone technician recoil upon seeing a shelf full of books from Loompanics or Paladin Press? Does the UPS driver get spooked by a disassembled AR-15 you're cleaning at the kitchen table? Does the mail carrier think you're getting too many military surplus catalogs? Do you fiddle with electronic equipment, homeschool your children, practice a non- mainstream religion, have unconventional political views or an unusual sex life?
Then you'd better be aware, beware, and be wary.
Even the American Civil Liberties Union (hardly a friend to gun owners) has pointed out that something as innocuous as possessing a gun magazine or a copy of the Koran could cause a TIPS volunteer to denounce you.
You may still think TIPS sounds innocuous. But what's being introduced now is just the TIPS of the police-state iceberg. Remember this axiom: If it's a government program, it grows.
The income tax was never going to take more than a few percent from the very richest people. Social Security was a fully funded insurance program for workers. The Great Society was going to spend a few billion dollars to wipe out poverty. And on and on.
Here's one familiar escalation example. First the government asks us nicely to wear a seatbelt. Then officers ticket you for being unbuckled, but only if they've stopped you for some other offense. Then being unbelted becomes a stopable offense by itself. And then they start throwing a few people in jail for failing to belt up. (See The State vs. the People, pps. 66-67) What next? Seize your unbelted children and throw them into foster homes?
Need more examples? Just ask a cigarette smoker where he's allowed to smoke these days. Ask a parent what happens if you don't believe in vaccinating your child. Think about the folks now angling to make it more difficult for you to buy an SUV or eat fatty foods. Or the school administrators who've had children not only suspended, but in some cases arrested, for pointing fingers and saying "bang."
This is what happens when government fosters and encourages hysteria "for your own good." This is what will inevitably happen with TIPS. But it gets even worse.
DSPS WITH GUNS
Others have noted that the TIPS program establishes a Stasi- like network of informers. (In Communist East Germany so many people were denouncing each other that the shelf space required to hold the information was measured in miles.) This is true. TIPS is the stuff of a police state.
It's also fairly obvious that thousands of foolish tips could overload investigators and cause them to overlook the next real threat.
But the most immediate danger is simply from DSPs. DSPs with badges. And DSPs who fantasize about having badges.
If you want to see a preview of the War on Terrorism, U.S.A. under the TIPS program, just look at the War on Drugs and the way drug warriors misuse informants.
In Houston, a drunk trying to save himself from being busted, tells police he can show them the home of a big drug dealer. Without further investigation, the cops smash in and kill Pedro Oregon Navarro, an innocent man. (See The State vs. the People, pg. 216)
In Dinuba, California, a rural town with a SWAT team but very little crime, an informant tells police a weapon used in an attempted murder might be in a certain house. In the middle of the night, Dinuba's finest burst in and machine-gun 64-year- old Ramon Gallardo to death. The informant was lying. (See The State vs. the People, pg. 309)
We could recount incidents like these all day -- incidents in which police act without checking, without good sense, and without mercy, egged on by self-interested, self-glorifying, payoff-seeking citizen informants.
Now think about what happens when TIPS expands to pay citizen informants for providing evidence of terrorism (as is now done in the Drug War and by the IRS, among other notorious instances). Think about someone who doesn't like you or who wants to make a buck planting evidence in your home or on your computer. Think about some repairman spotting a controversial item in your possession and shaking you down ("Hey buddy, a hundred bucks and I'll forget I saw a thing.") Think about some busybody selling information about you to the police or FBI. History and reality say it'll happen -- and it'll look very familiar when it does.
War on Terrorism? War on Drugs? Who cares what you call it, as long as it beefs up the budgets of law enforcement agencies, builds government power, demolishes that pesky and inconvenient Bill of Rights, and pumps up the egos (and perhaps eventually the wallets) of a nation of citizen-informants.
AND WAIT'LL THEY GET BOMBS AND AIRCRAFT
Now the Bush administration proposes to junk, or at least weaken, the Posse Comitatus Act, the 124-year-old law that keeps the military out of domestic law enforcement (http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/nation/1503195). The major difference between the military and the police is that police are trained (at least in theory) to protect and serve citizens while soldiers are trained to kill the enemy. Remember Kent State?
Consider what happens when TIPS is combined with domestic military operations. You don't have to look far. Just look at Afghanistan.
U.S. airstrikes in that sad country have killed hundreds of innocent civilians. Last month an airstrike wiped out 50 people at a wedding party. This isn't merely a tragic, but unpreventable, side-effect of war. This is a combination of the "shoot first, ask questions later" mentality and the uninformed use of informants. One Afghani warlord with a grudge comes to the Americans and tells them, "Oh, big Al Quaeda operation going on here" -- when in fact it's merely a rival warlord's family reunion. Boom! The Americans roar in with full firepower.
Shall we say, "Coming soon to a neighborhood near you?" It might if the Bush administration gets its way on Posse Comitatus and someone has a grudge against you or misinterprets your actions.
TIPS ON TIPS: EDUCATE YOURSELF TO REDUCE YOUR RISK
Whether your greatest fear is short-term danger from deputized busybodies or the long-term (and ever increasing) danger that your beloved country is becoming a police state, TIPS is a step in the wrong direction.
Even if the program is officially killed by Congress, chances are, it won't go away. To avoid falling victim to some Junior J. Edgar, cross your fingers, use a lot of common sense, and take simple precautions like these:
Don't buy a lot of money orders for cash (at the post office or any financial service company)
Clean house regularly. Don't leave cartridges, controversial books, firearms, political pamphlets, religious tracts, knife collections, electronics, storage foods, or anything more controversial than a picture of your Aunt Nellie in plain sight -- or hidden where a repair person might stumble across it.
Become as energy self-sufficient as possible so utility workers will have little reason to come to your home.
Install your own phone lines so the phone company has no reason to be on your property.
Receive mail and packages at a post office box or mail service so no delivery person ever has to come to your home.
Behave yourself with impeccable discretion in all public places, including on public transportation, in taxis, and .... well, everywhere.
Do maintenance checks on your home and replace old or faulty equipment to reduce the need for emergency calls to plumbers, electricians, firefighters or anyone else.
It isn't pleasant to have to live this way. But as long as DSPs are turned loose upon the nation by government mandate, sensible people have to act extra sensibly to survive.
Unfortunately, things may have to get much worse before they get better. As long as Americans can fool themselves into believing that unjust accusations, midnight raids, detentions without charges, and all abuses of freedom happen only to "the other guy," they'll tolerate anything. Only when their own ox is gored -- as the TIPS program may eventually gore it -- will a majority stand up and demand restoration of a Bill of Rights culture.
As Ben Franklin said, we have a republic -- if we can keep it. We should all look in the mirror and ask ourselves how much we really want to keep it and what we're willing to do to prevent it from being taken away by DSPs and their government handlers.

Air travelers ranked according to security risk..
Passenger screens to start..
staff, wire reports
WASHINGTON - The Homeland Security Department will begin testing a program to classify all airline passengers according to their security risk.
Privacy advocates have criticized the passenger screening effort, fearing it could lead to unconstitutional invasions of privacy and database mix-ups that could brand innocent people as potential terrorists.
Nuala O'Connor Kelly, Homeland Security's chief privacy officer, said the program has been reworked so less personal information will be checked. And people will be able to write or call to find out what's in the database about them, Kelly said. That was not the case under the original plan.
The program will be tested for several months at a secure government location. No date for implementation has been announced.
Leigh Ann Underwood, 33, Hattiesburg resident and Southern Bone & Joint director of business development, supports the program, even if there are longer waits or mistakes.
After visiting Ground Zero, she said longer waits should never be viewed as an inconvenience.
"I don't have a problem with it," Underwood said, adding that she'd recently booked a trip to Los Angeles. "It can be an inconvenience but I feel that it's important, therefore I will get to the airport earlier now than we have in the past."
But Hattiesburg resident Andrea Hewitt, 36, who travels by plane once every two months, worried that the plan would be too intrusive. However, she said she saw the good that the program would create if it worked properly.
"I don't think the government should be poking into people's private business without their consent," Hewitt said.
The Computer Assisted Passenger Prescreening System was ordered by Congress after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. It originally was conceived as a nationwide computer system that would compare passenger names with those on government watch lists and check such things as a traveler's credit report and consumer transactions.
Amid outcries from privacy advocates, the government reworked the plan to eliminate some of the information-gathering. For example, the test program won't use credit histories and specifically rules out medical information, Kelly said.
Privacy advocates remain leery, particularly because the government says the database could be used for other purposes. For example, information obtained about airline passengers could be used to arrest criminals, said David Sobel, spokesman for the Electronic Privacy Information Center.

The Chairman .. A Dream ..A Work Of Fiction .. Speculating On Mr. Greenspan’s Motives..
By
Daan Joubert
I happen to suffer from a strange condition – if suffer is the right word, as on occasions my experiences have been a source of great enjoyment, intellectually and, vicariously, of a more immediate nature. In that sense, I hope the condition remains in place.
You see, I dream. Of course, most people do so, but my dreams are kind of special. They enact history. Or repeat it, if you wish, but to me, while I dream, I am living history.
Let me explain. The dreams started about 15 years ago. After many years of not dreaming at all, suddenly, I had the most vivid dream I could remember. If one could call it a dream, since I was living, experiencing history. Not as an observer or a nonentity, but as a major actor on the world stage.
My first dream was of Jeanne’dArc. The point is that I was Jeanne. I experienced at first hand what she had lived through and in the process learned much detail that I believe is not known to history – not only thoughts, wishes, fears and other things that are personal and easy to imagine, particularly in a dream. But also events, conversations, meetings, that, to the best of my subsequent reading of history could have really happened – readings that revealed many facts I did not know at the time of the dream, but that show these events could well have taken place exactly as dreamt.
Since then I have had a good number of similar dreams. Always important historical characters; always spread over as many as 10 to 12 nights, to make allowance for the detail that often spans decades of live, real and detailed history. All shakers of the world, people of historical consequence. And all deceased.
Recently, I had the first dream about someone who is still alive – someone who is still moving and shaking the world as we know it. Someone who can still make a difference to what we will live through during the next few decades. This dream is still incomplete – but it has stopped and I do not know what will happen next.
In my dream I was a central banker. THE central banker. In it a certain objective, a goal that has become what other people may call obsession, casts a long shadow that stretches back to the early days. It is this objective and what lies beyond it that perhaps need to be mentioned – not as a statement of fact, but merely as an element in a dream, one that might bear no resemblance to reality. But, then, just perhaps it does, in which case it has a strong bearing on how we should view the future.
What follows is written in the first person, but the reader should clearly understand these are the words of a dreamer, and nothing more. It is also not the full dream, but only parts that are pertinent to the main thread of this theme to be expounded. The dream, which has consumed a number of nights, as is usual for these special dreams, is still so vivid and so overpowering and I have so much become the character of the dream, that I have over the past few days developed a certain way of expressing myself – one in which my sentences are even more convoluted and complex and remote than normal and I hereby undertake to make a special effort to keep my prose simple and to the point, taking care to avoid, or where necessary excise the frequent circumlocutions and oblique allusions that – quite purposefully on occasion – distract listeners from what I am really saying. Where I have failed in this, I plead for the reader’s indulgence.

The beginning
My dream started more than seventy years ago in Washington Heights, Manhattan. Father was an economist at a stockbroker and Mother “a retail worker”, as the media referred to her. Divorced when I was still very young, Mother had a difficult time to make ends meet on meager wages during a time when most of America suffered deeply through the Great Depression of the Thirties.
A real smart kid, I was, with a fascination for music and numbers. Mother had great fun – and a good deal of pride – showing me off to her friends, by asking me to display my skills at mental arithmetic. But music was my passion. That is where my career would lie. Until a year at the Juilliard School of Music and the start of my career, playing in a swing band. The band needed someone who could let the tenor sax sing and make do on the clarinet, but perhaps I gained more respect from the other members of the band when I completed their tax returns blindfolded and with my hands behind my back, in a manner of speaking.
Eventually this all proved a point and at age 19 I enrolled at New York University to take a closer look at numbers and what they could tell me.
I loved economics. Music was a passion, but economics became my life. No wonder my first degree was summa cum. My new hero was John Maynard Keynes – whose ideas and concepts could explain in detail why the most important factor in my early life, the difficult years of the Depression, had happened. Much more importantly, in my eyes, he also explained how to prevent it from ever happening again.
From him I learnt that free, unfettered markets are inherently unreliable, too much driven by emotions and unexpected events. Just as panic in a market can feed on itself to cause a crash, pessimism can feed on itself in the broad economy to result in a depression. That is why intervention by the government is so very necessary, even if deficit spending is the result. It is a small price to pay to give government the key that is so necessary to keep economic cycles from going out of control. Wonderful! Powerful stuff!! A genius!!!
I was convinced and committed.
Then a masters degree and a start on a Ph.D. However, it was evident that I had to start earning an income to pay my own way. I soon found work at the National Industrial Conference Board. Really dull work, but at least it paid and at least it had to do with numbers. I was beginning to learn that he who had command of the numbers was able to influence the decisions that were taken.
Then came the event that in a very true and literal sense radically changed my life. And my life’s work.
The Collective
I met my first wife on a blind date – someone suggested that I date a Joan Mitchell, a quite bright girl. The fact that we dated – a concert at Carnegie Hall, on the first occasion, if I remember correctly – and quite soon after got married, was in itself not so important. The marriage, after all, lasted only a year or so, although we remained friends ever since.
But Joan was a member of a small and rather exclusive group that met regularly once a week to discuss philosophy, metaphysics and whatever else was to their interest. Yet, most conversations soon returned to what was later to be called “Objectivism”.
The convenor and unquestioned leader of this group was a Russian expatriate, Ayn Rand, and the philosophy she expounded was one based on the virtues of selfishness, not as a premise but as a moral absolute. At first I was quiet, withdrawn and, in a sense, out of my depth. Socially and philosophically, but not intellectually; although I had great respect for the brain power Ayn Rand could bring to bear on a problem. Suddenly I, a true blue and committed Keynesian, had to contend with equally sincere and committed believers in free markets, almost at the other extreme of the spectrum. And, to my very great surprise, I had to admit, to myself first of all and later openly, I did not have the answers!
“The Fountainhead”, Ayn Rand’s first major success as a novel, was a revelation; fiction, yes, but so powerful that one could lie awake at nights pondering the questions it raised. And be wonderfully excited by the answers. Soon after devouring this book, I even started to creep out of my shell, participating to a greater degree in the discussions of “The Collective”, as we called ourselves. But by then my usual reticence and a permanently somewhat dour expression had already earned me the sobriquet of ‘The Undertaker’!
“Atlas Shrugged”, which we read with great enthusiasm and excitement as it was being written, had such an exhilarating and revelationary effect that I once had to exclaim, “Ayn, this is incredible. No one has ever dramatized what industrial achievement really means as you have done. What you have written is a hymn to human intelligence. This is fantastic!”
It really was. And she was, too.
Of course, by then, Keynes had slipped into the background, soon to be remembered only as just another economist. In all honesty I had to adopt the objectivist point of view, with a great and lasting regard for the power of the free market – and a deep suspicion of people who “want to do good” out of a sense of altruism. Especially if they do so with other people’s money. I was utterly convinced by Ayn Rand, through long discussions, often deep into the night, that capitalism is not only efficient and practical, but the only truly moral system. Based on the moral absolutes she believed in so strongly and were able to explain so well.
A new commitment
For perhaps the larger part of a decade we met almost every week to debate many issues and principles that we came to accept as the way the world ought to be working. During this time I took up the cudgels on behalf of Ayn. Following a rather poor review of “Atlas Shrugged” in the New York Times Book Review, I wrote them a letter they published.
At the end the letter went, “Atlas Shrugged is a celebration of life and happiness. Creative individuals and undeviating purpose and rationality achieve joy and fulfillment. Parasites who persistently avoid either purpose or reason perish as they should. Yours truly.” Strong sentiments. But valid.
Rand’s philosophy was very much in favour of a gold standard. I came to fully support this view and wrote some articles to explain my new commitment. In one of these I introduced my credo as, “An almost hysterical antagonism toward the gold standard is one issue which unites statists of all persuasion", ending with, "In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value.......... The financial policy of the welfare state requires that there be no way for the owners of wealth to protect themselves. This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists’ tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the ‘hidden’ confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists’ antagonism toward the gold standard".
A similar article in support of a gold standard appeared in the WSJ in September, 1981. It is a commitment that has never flagged, although it later became a very unpopular theme with economists and of course the authorities.
This introduces the dilemma that later becomes the main thrust of this document. When the above was written in 1966, the dollar was still effectively – if somewhat tenuously, compared to earlier days – linked to gold. Then, in 1971, Nixon took America completely off the gold standard. This was after Arthur Burns, as Chairman of the Federal Reserve, primed the money engine to bank roll the Vietnam War and to engineer a successful re-election in 1972. Because of this, he subsequently had to protect the value of the dollar against his earlier excesses, during which process he had to call on Europe to help protect the value of the dollar and prevent a crisis of confidence in the currency.
However, despite heroic work that had been done by the London Gold Pool, these efforts came to naught and Nixon was forced to sever the link between the dollar and gold. Among other things, this taught me the true destructive power of a too rapid increase in the money supply, however good the intentions, when it lets loose the inflation genie. As it inevitably must, sooner or later. A most valuable lesson, indeed, as time will show.
By this time I had already established my own consulting firm, Townsend & Greenspan, and was no longer out in the industrial arena where the numbers had become old and firm friends. Frank Ikard would later say of me, "He is the kind of person who knows how many thousands of flat-headed bolts were used in a Chevrolet and what it would do to the national economy if you took out three of them."
Prior to Burns and the exit from the gold standard, the second momentous meeting of my life took place in the late 1960’s. I happened to bump into the manager of the Henry Jerome swing band in which I had played many years before, Leonard Garment. He had progressed to be an advisor to Nixon’s presidential campaign. We had lunch and he insisted on introducing me to the presidential candidate.
Again, as 17 years before, my life took a major about turn. I met Nixon and he liked what I had to say so much that Nixon later told Leonard he wanted to see more of me. My first political conquest, but by far not the last! I had long been enamoured with economic statistics, but now I realised more than ever that figures and numbers had a tremendous power on others as well, even the powerful. If numbers could be wielded correctly and expertly, this conveyed the desired impression, of being expert and very knowledgeable – qualities that impress even the most powerful figures in industry and politics!
Knowledge – and well practiced ability – that came in very useful in years to come.
I worked as a volunteer for the Nixon 1968 campaign, mainly because I was so impressed by the way Nixon also saw inflation as a major threat to the integrity of the dollar. I did not receive the usual reward for volunteer work, of some position in the Administration, as I did not want any and turned down all such offers, even the quite important Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors (CEA), of which more later.
It of course became evident quite soon that Nixon’s abhorrence and aversion for inflation and its effects was merely opportunistic. Nixon’s stance against inflation probably was electioneering cosmetics only, as some believe that he saw a tight monetary policy by the Fed as the main cause for his failed election bid as incumbent in 1960, when Kennedy won. The moment that expediency called for it, he appointed Arthur Burns as Chairman of the Fed, knowing full well that this step would place the Federal Reserve effectively under White House control and thus loosen the strings on the nation’s money purse.
I knew Burns well. He was a professor at Columbia when I started off on a PhD, until the wherewithal to fund my studies declined to a level where I had to find employment and thereby relieve the financial pressure on my Mother. When we discussed the matter of inflation in class, he told us in explicit terms that, “Excessive government spending causes inflation.” Then, later, when he held the strings of the national purse, he taught his ex-students through his own example that there is another and perhaps even more certain way to trigger and then sustain rampant inflation.
In an attempt to create the right climate for the 1972 election, Burns almost quadrupled the growth in the money supply. By 1974 this had resulted in a surge in inflation – with no comparable increase in government spending as the war in Vietnam was winding down – that was rapidly moving out of control.
I was flabbergasted by what had been allowed to happen.
By then, of course, the US had already been off the gold standard for some time.
In government service
This was the moment when the call finally came for me to serve my country. In typical government fashion it was Burns himself who effectively gave me no choice except to accept. He was adamant that my country needed me to do battle against consumer inflation and I had to respond.
Way back in the days of ‘The Collective’ we discussed consumer inflation in a theoretical sense. Ayn Rand revealed that inflation is the mechanism by which the corrupt political power system deprived people from the full enjoyment of the fruits of their labours; all it took was debasement and devaluation of legal tender by means of inappropriate policies – inappropriate in terms of fundamental requirements of good governance, but of course most appropriate as seen from the perspective of the wielders of power.
On the morning that Nixon resigned over Watergate, I attended the first Senate hearing for confirmation as Chairman of the CEA. My brief was going to be to combat inflation. Soon after this, I was quite explicit in explaining where the root cause of the problem lay. “In the last 10 or 15 years there has been an extraordinary [lovely word!] build up of special interests in our society who have ongoing commitments from the Federal budget that are running in excess of the revenue-raising capacity of our tax system . . . I suspect that it may account for anywhere from 80 to 90 percent of the inflation in this country.”
Plainer than that I could not have stated the problem.
As it may, I only became chair of the CEA under Gerald Ford, not Nixon. I later heard he had some doubts about my appointment, but Ford had too many fires to beat down to be overly concerned about what was still only an advisory position with no real power.
When I was sworn in, in September 1974, three facts about that occasion stand out in my memory: I still had no doctorate (that I only received in 1977 from my Alma Mater, based on a compendium of articles I had written at some stage or another); secondly, my mother was present and held the Talmud on which I took my oath of office; thirdly, as an expression of my regard for my mentor, Ayn Rand had a pride of place in the front row at the ceremony. While many may have thought that a little strange, it was my way to show her that I still stood very firm on the principles we had discussed so fervently late into the night during the 1960’s – which, at that time, was not too long before – and that I was gradually moving closer to a position of power where I could do something about it all.
According to Ayn Rand, true capitalists should never accept any positions in government as that was morally wrong. Government is exploitative in and of itself and also because government appropriates the labour and effort of people for non-productive causes when these people would have been making a more valuable contribution in the private sector.
This applies particularly strongly when the position requires the incumbent to compose propaganda on behalf of the government and its policies. And, in her eyes, practically all senior positions in government fell into this category. She was convinced that heads of agencies were continuously using propaganda and what came to known as PR in all its forms in order to advance the cause of their agencies, and of themselves, of course.
Perhaps, I thought, in my case she would make an exception. Much later, being true to my commitment and rather than promote the extension of the power and authority of the Federal Reserve, I had suggested during a senate hearing that all economic regulations should have a sunset clause – a clause under which the regulation would automatically terminate after a certain date or period. I even said that the Federal Reserve, along with other government agencies should automatically lapse and be dissolved according to laid down procedures, unless there is a positive act on the part of Congress to extend the life of the agency.
The expression on the face of Senator Sarbanes when I affirmed that even the Department of Defense should be subject to a sunset clause was a quiet joy to behold. That was when he asked me whether I would advocate a return to the gold standard. He must have read my earlier writings and wanted to test me to see whether I had reneged on the principles I had once believed in so strongly and had expressed openly and lucidly. My reply must have come as another surprise, when I said, “I’ve been advocating that for years, so there is nothing new about that . . . . It would probably mean there would only be one vote in the FOMC in favour of that, but it would be mine.”
I was pleased that the senator had asked that question. It brought my opinion on the gold standard out into the bright lights of centre stage.. However, as so often happens, people get intrigued by my somewhat more convoluted statements, and they expend much time and effort and consultancy fees to find the correct interpretation of what I had said. Yet, when I really want to convey something important in common easily understood words, of rarely more than four syllables, and with sentence construction so simple a teenager could understand my message without a problem, these clever people do not hear what I have told them.
My reply to the senator was and remains the crux of my career; my calling. My destiny.
We – and the rest of the world – desperately need to get back onto the tight discipline that is imposed by a gold standard. Over the longer term, the alternative is just too horrible to contemplate. A return to the gold standard is not a negotiable, but a given.
Chairman of the CEA is not an executive position, and has but little real authority to accomplish anything significant. However, it brought me closer to the corridors of power than I had been before and I made full use of the opportunity in pursuit of a longer term strategy that I was in the process of formulating. The reference to the ‘corridors of power’ is metaphorical, but I turned it into a literal quest for contacts, almost daily meeting with people currently in power and those who might be there in future, developing influence, through the power of numbers, and spreading personal networks, with the objective to gradually build a power base from where my eventual objectives could be accomplished.
This took many years to accomplish, but I was patient, and the high investment in time and effort only started to bear fruit when I eventually became Chairman of the Federal Reserve, as may have been foreordained, but that I ensured would happen through my constant rambling through the corridors of power in pursuit of what was required for this to happen.
I think my former wife, Joan, with whom I remained on good terms and always had been, suspected something. She once intimated that she thought I had been taking control of what she called ‘the processes’ ever so quietly, saying "Alan believes that there needs to be a transition period. He thinks we will get to where he wants to go - but that it will take time." So, when she asked me later whether I had grown soft in my old age, that politics may have compromised me more that I thought and that I might be succumbing to expediency, I could still reply with complete conviction that, “I haven’t changed my mind. About anything.” Which reply may have given her a clue as to where I wanted to go, even if it takes a long time.
And the one thing about which I have definitely not changed my mind is the absolute need for a gold standard to enforce the kind of discipline politicians find so difficult to do when they have the controls of the money presses in their hands.
The dilemma
News of my openly stated preference for a gold standard is well circulated, even though most, perhaps all, people who hear of this write it off, probably as the ramblings of an old man who is well on his way to living in the far gone past. The fact of the matter is that I am fully committed to bringing just that about – a world wide return to a gold standard. To honest and equitable government and a stable global economy.
The much more than a mere $64000 question is how to achieve this objective, given that politicians and economists alike have come to accept, nay, fervently believe, that “Gold is dead” and that we Americans live and will continue to live in this, the best of all possible worlds. And that it can only get better.
By the time I became Chairman of the Federal Reserve, I had already achieved the first step in my daring and long term plan to achieve my goal. I had built a base of influence in the political structures that gave me a strong advantage now that I at long last had the real power seat from where I could begin to put my plan into action. Yet I still had to play it carefully, step by well planned step, else the effort would be wasted and in time America and the rest of the world will be ravaged by the disastrous effects of being off the gold standard that I had written about so many years ago.
A next objective was to develop the full potential for power of my new position. Luckily, the era of Arthur Burns, as an appointment that would bow before the wishes of the White House, gave way to the rise – and subsequent fall from grace – of Paul Volcker. He was no government lackey! Called upon to stop the rampant inflation legacy of Burns, he did so with a vengeance – achieving success with strict discipline and independence from intervention from outside, even from the White House.
Even though it made him unpopular with his political bosses and gave me an opening.
Inflation fell, but the road that Volcker was travelling would never bring us closer to a gold standard. Just the opposite, in fact. With his kind of iron will and strict discipline and keen commitment to independence, the situation where a return to a gold standard would be feasible, yes, even very desirable, even by the politicians who realise that in future their hands would be tied in terms of monetary policy as a means to regulate the economy, would never arise.
Just as well Reagan did not appoint him for another term in 1987, but gave me the job.
Following him into the chair at the Federal Reserve made one aspect of my life much easier. The independence of the Federal Reserve and the precedent that the Chairman had more than just considerable influence in the decisions taken by the FOMC, had become widely accepted, within and without the Fed and, of greater importance, within the White House as well.
This made my next step so much easier. The latent power was there, in place; all I had to do to wield it was to continue to expand my sphere of influence and establish widespread credibility in my skills, knowledge and ability – still the numbers game. Then I could proceed along my chosen path towards the primary goal.
The core element of my strategy was to bring about conditions in the economy and the markets under which the majority of people, economists and laymen, in and outside of government, in and outside of politics, would clearly perceive and accept that a return to a gold standard was the only practical solution for the problems that had arisen, the only way out to avoid a future that they, too, could perceive, clearly and unambiguously, as too horrible to contemplate. And to prevent a recurrence of what had by then taken place.
It is said the financial markets are driven by two close companions, fear and greed. The same holds true for politicians – they are driven by a lust for power and suffer from the fear of anonymity and being barred from the affairs of state. They will not easily take such an unpopular action as reverting to a gold standard after enjoying for so long all the political advantages of fiat money – not without being compelled by very good reasons.
It is my objective to resolve the dilemma by supplying exactly those very good reasons.
A strategy
It required much soul searching before I had finally decided on a course of action. My strategy hinges on my ability to engineer, in relatively short order, an economic collapse to rival, nay, exceed, that of the Thirties – the difficult Thirties of my childhood years. To do so, I have to duplicate the monetary excesses of the mid-1920’s, that led into the Crash of ’29, but have to do so without introducing the inflationary problems that resulted from similar actions by Burns in the late 60’s to early 70’s, else the FOMC will be compelled to act, prematurely so, in terms of my strategy, and before the crisis can reach the deep proportions that would achieve my objective.
I had to carefully weigh up the disruption of the global economy that would follow any success I might have, worse than the Thirties, against the terrible and extended fiasco that would inevitably arise if governments continued to employ their short sighted policies in the absence of a gold standard, this time on a global scale, and a global time frame. Much sooner treat the situation as would a surgeon who has to open up somebody’s chest to do a heart transplant. Rather the short term agony and long recovery of a major and critical operation, followed by newly regained and long to be enjoyed good health, provided, of course, the necessary lifestyle discipline is then practiced, than the otherwise unavoidable lingering and debilitating and painwracked decline into death.
Rather a very sharp, relatively early, induced collapse in the financial markets before the economy of the whole world is so ruined that it will take many decades of great hardship for all, but most of all for the common people, to recover. I know of this.
Fortuitously for my strategy, assumption of the position as Chairman was soon followed by the Panic of 1987. Without going into the reasons that created the right climate for this event, or what finally triggered it, suffice it to say that I immediately applied the correct remedy under the circumstances. We primed the money pump and set it into high gear.
As expected, this worked soon enough. The economy picked up steam again, Wall Street recovered and everyone was convinced that adding liquidity to the market was the right recipe for success in any market crisis. A perfect start had been made.
During this time I extended the guideline many people use, of not letting the left hand knowing what the right is doing; I also learnt it was very useful not to let either hand know what the mouth was saying, nor to let what the hands were doing impede what the mouth had to be saying in pursuit of my goals.
In the years that followed, many factors – as I have stressed repeatedly in speeches and testimony before Congress – contributed to strong economic growth with low inflation. A combination that masked the growth in the money supply and what this was doing to the economic fundamentals of the US, and, unless there was intervention, which I intended to make sure would not occur in time, later to the rest of the world as well. Until the whole globe became an economic disaster area.
Granted, in many foreign countries situations had developed – financial and other crises – that have contributed to the so far unqualified success of what I am trying to achieve. The inflow of foreign funds, partly through the strong dollar, helped to balance a growing trade deficit, while also keeping inflation low – all of this contributed to establish the ideal breeding ground for what I have in mind.
We are still perfectly on track to a situation where a return to the gold standard will be mandatory, no longer just an option or one alternative to consider. It is now a matter of timing and waiting for the right combination of conditions to release the final blow to the system – a blow that has been so carefully prepared and that will ring through the ages and change the world as economists and markets know it.
A blow that in due course will mean a return to a gold standard.
For America and for the world. For the better.
There have been a few close calls, in 1997 and in 1998. Crises that developed on those occasions were premature and would not have been serious enough to have the desired effect, triggering a demand for the gold standard to be re-imposed.
Which meant rapid action on the part of the FOMC – and myself, of course – to prevent these crises from unsuccessfully pre-empting my strategy. Yet these occasions suited me fine as our success in preventing a melt down added to our stature and made the road so much easier for what still lay ahead.
If my strategy works, I will most likely be demonised as the progenitor of all the misery that has come down on American society and the global community. Yet, not too many years later and once the blessings of a gold standard are being experienced by all, it may well be that this perception will change to that of a man who deeply loved capitalism and had done much to set the world economy on an even keel, leading to prosperity and stability for the global community.
That would make a good epitaph.
Conclusion
This is not the place to discuss the full detail of the strategy. Mainly because I cannot do so. This is where the dream ended and, as a non-economist, many of the details that had passed through the dream became so much Greek when I had woken up and struggled to remember exactly what the full plan is.
It is now three weeks since I had last experienced an installment in this dream sequence. Is this the end of it all? Of the dream itself and whatever tenuous and highly questionable link it has to reality.
Some of the facts that I remembered from the dream are correct, or close to correct, as it had been possible to verify them from existing sources. Others, such as much of the latter part of this document, must remain as mere conjecture or even pure fantasy. I have no way to distinguish which is which. What of this all could just perhaps be true, and what is no more than a fertile subconscious at work while I am asleep
Perhaps the reader would care to explore available material in greater detail and form an own opinion. It would not be an exercise in futility, but could be crucial for one’s future financial health.
As the Boy Scouts have it, one should be prepared.
Postscript
This is a work of fiction, as stated right at the beginning.
It is however interesting that there are material and quotations available that makes the thesis presented in “What a Dream” not completely irrational.
The interested reader is referred to the following few of many articles on Mr. Greenspan that are available from the internet; some of these below discuss his relationship with Objectivism and served as sources for this work:

I could not find a current link for “Can the US return to a gold standard?”, but it used to be available from http://www.gold-eagle.com/
Also many speeches and testimony by A. Greenspan, available from the Federal Reserve and other sites.
Lastly, the very interesting article by R.W Bradford (no 1 above) ends with the question, “Who is Alan Greenspan? Is he savior or destroyer?”
The answer to this question is worthy of a penetrating analysis.
In the light of the above fiction, one is tempted to consider the answer might be, “Both.”.

Hon. Ron Paul Introduces HR 2779..
THE HONEST MONEY ACT..
REPEAL OF LEGAL TENDER LAWS..
Mr. Speaker, I rise to introduce the Honest Money Act. The Honest Money Act repeals legal tender laws, a.k.a. forced tender laws, that compel American citizens to accept fiat (arbitrary) irredeemable paper-ticket or electronic money as their unit of account.
Absent legal tender laws, individuals acting through the markets, rather than government dictates, determine what is to be used as money. Historically, the free-market choice for money has been some combination of gold and silver, whenever they were available. As Dr. Edwin Vieira, the nation’s top expert on the Constitution as it relates to money, says: “ . . . a free market functions most efficiently and most fairly when the market determines the quality and the quantity of money that’s being used.”
While fiat money is widely accepted thanks to legal tender laws, it does not maintain its purchasing power. This works to the disadvantage of ordinary people who lose the purchasing power of their savings, pensions, annuities, and other promises of future payment. Most importantly, because of the subsidies our present monetary system provides to banks, which, as Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has stated, “induces” the financial sector to increase leverage, the Federal Reserve can create additional money, in Mr. Greenspan’s words, “without limit.” For this reason, absent legal tender laws, many citizens would refuse to accept fiat irredeemable paper-ticket or electronic money for their promises of future payments, such as their pensions.
Legal tender laws disadvantage ordinary citizens by forcing them to use money that is vulnerable to vast depreciation. As Stephen T. Byington wrote in the September 1895 issue of the American Federationist: “No legal tender law is ever needed to make men take good money; its only use is to make them take bad money. Kick it out!” Similarly, the American Federation of Labor asked: If money is good and would be preferred by the people, then why are legal tender laws necessary? And, if money is not good and would not be preferred by the people, then why in a democracy should they be forced to use it?
The American Federation of Labor understood how the erosion of the value of money cheated working people. Further, honest money, i.e., specie, was one of the three issues that encouraged ordinary people to organize into unions when the union movement began in the U.S. circa 1830.
While harming ordinary citizens, legal tender laws help expand the scope of government beyond that to which it is authorized under the Constitution. However, the primary beneficiaries of legal tender laws are financial institutions, especially banks, which have been improperly granted the special privilege of creating fiat irredeemable electronic money out of thin air through a process commonly called “fractional reserve lending.” According to the Federal Reserve, since 1950, these private companies (banks) have created almost $8 trillion out of nothing. This has been enormously advantageous to them.
The advantages given banks and other financial institutions by our fiat monetary system, which is built on a foundation of legal tender laws, allow them to realize revenues that would not be available to these institutions in a free market. This represents legalized plunder of ordinary people. Legal tender laws thus enable the redistribution of wealth from those who produce it, mostly ordinary working people, to those who create and move around our irredeemable paper-ticket electronic money which is, in essence, just scrip.
The drafters of the Constitution were well aware of how a government armed with legal tender powers could ravage the people’s liberty and prosperity. That is why the Constitution does not grant legal tender power to the federal government, and the States are empowered to make legal tender only out of gold and silver (see Article 1, Section 10). Instead, Congress was given the power to regulate money against a standard, i.e., the dollar. When Alexander Hamilton wrote the Coinage Act of 1792, he simply made into law the market-definition of a dollar as equaling the silver content of the Spanish milled dollar (371.25 grains of silver), which is the dollar referred to in the Constitution. This historical definition of the dollar has never been changed, and cannot be changed any more than the term “inch,” as a measure of length, can be changed. It is a gross misrepresentation to equate our irredeemable paper-ticket or electronic money to “dollars.”
However, during the 20th century, the legal tender power enabled politicians to fool the public into believing the dollar no longer meant a weight of gold or silver. Instead, the government told the people that the dollar now meant a piece of government-issued paper backed up by nothing except the promises of the government to maintain a stable value of currency. Of course, history shows that the word of the government to protect the value of the dollar is literally not worth the paper it is printed on.
Tragically, the Supreme Court has failed to protect the American people from unconstitutional legal tender laws. Salmon Chase, who served as Secretary of the Treasury in President Lincoln’s administration, when he was Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, dissenting in Knox vs. Lee, summed up the argument against legal tender laws in twelve words: “The legal tender quality [of money] is only valuable for the purposes of dishonesty.” [Emphasis added.]
Another prescient Justice was Stephen Field, the only Justice to dissent in every legal tender case to come before the Court. Justice Field accurately described the dangers to our constitutional republic posed by legal tender laws: “The arguments in favor of the constitutionality of legal tender paper currency tend directly to break down the barriers which separate a government of limited powers from a government resting in the unrestrained will of Congress. Those limitations must be preserved, or our government will inevitably drift from the system established by our Fathers into a vast, centralized, and consolidated government.” A government with unrestrained powers is properly characterized as a tyranny.
Repeal of legal tender laws will help restore constitutional government and protect the people’s right to a medium of exchange chosen by the market, thereby protecting their current purchasing power as well as their pensions, savings, and other promises of future payment. Because honest money serves the needs of ordinary people, instead of fiat irredeemable paper-ticket electronic money that improperly transfers the wealth of society to a small specially privileged financial elite along with other special interests, I urge my colleagues to cosponsor the Honest Money Act.

FEMA.. The Structure of Tyranny?.
http://www.strike-the-root.com/3/newmanj/newmanj1.html
July 7, 2003
by John Newman mailto:themick@hushmail.com
First, a quick history lesson..
Upon his ascension to the highest office in all the land, Ronald Reagan appointed one Louis O. Giuffrida Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA..
Giufrida seemed an odd choice..
FEMA deals primarily with disaster relief, whereas the new Director was a former General in the California National Guard..
One would wonder what he knew about rebuilding after floods and tornadoes, but in the event, it was irrelevant..
The reason for Giufrida's appointment would come out eventually .. as a high ranking officer in the National Guard, the general had formulated several contingency plans for what was euphemistically referred to as domestic counter insurgency..
Essentially, Giuffrida favored using American combat troops to round up individuals protesting, say, an American invasion of Nicaragua..
These individuals would then be thrown into detention centers until the emergency was deemed over..
Giuffrida's counterinsurgency plans followed him to FEMA..
Various executive orders by the Reagan White House still in the Federal Register granted the agency vast new powers..
For instance, EO 10995 allowed FEMA to seize any and all communications media..
EO 11000 gave FEMA the power to arrest any citizen and put them to work on various federal projects..
EO 11051 let FEMA institute any new executive orders the felt necessary during a national emergency..
Perhaps worst of all, through Executive Order 11490, the president granted himself the right to declare such an emergency at any time, without consulting Congress or the American people..
This would allow the president and FEMA to rule the country via outright martial law..
Perhaps the most troubling harbinger of things to come was Readiness Exercise 1984, or RX-84..
In 1984, the military conducted an exercise, codenamed Night Train, a war game scenario dealing with, among other things, the invasion of war torn Nicaragua by American troops..
In conjunction with Night Train, FEMA conducted RX-84..
This was an exercise for what FEMA now viewed as its main mission .. the arrest of up to 100,000 American citizens deemed national security threats, and their imprisonment, without trial, in one of the several detention centers scattered around the country..
Thankfully, before anything came of these plans, the heat came down on Giuffrida's fiefdom..
Although infringing on the natural rights of man was all well and good, the agency was collecting intelligence on domestic troublemakers under the guise of counter-terrorism..
This cut in on the FBI's territory, and that just wouldn't do..
Attorney General William French Smith forced the matter, demanding FEMA turn over the intelligence it had gathered..
In the end, Giuffrida turned over some 12,000 dossiers on political activists, survivalists, and tax protesters..
This public scolding, along with a series of articles about the agency's abuses by investigative reporter Jack Anderson, lead to calls by some for change at FEMA..
Finally, in 1985, when it was discovered that General Giuffrida had used $170,000 of the agency's funds to build himself a swinging bachelor pad in Emmitsburg, Maryland, he resigned in disgrace..
Throughout the late '80s and early '90s, FEMA returned to its original role .. giving your tax dollars to idiots who should have bought flood insurance..
However since 9/11, the agency has made numerous disturbing moves to reassert its power..
A quick glance at the Department of Homeland Security will reveal that this isn't a new agency .. it's just FEMA, with a greatly expanded mandate and a few other agencies grafted on..
This will swell FEMA's ranks from 2,600 to 170,000 employees..
What's worse, the Department of Homeland Security is slated to have more armed agents than any other domestic law enforcement group..
The agency has now received the role it has always desired, as the catch-all guarantor of national security..
Furthermore, FEMA appears to be actively obscuring its position of prominence in the new order..
Remember Operation TIPS?.
The program's website stated that it was a project of the U.S. Department of Justice..
This is an outright, bald faced lie..
According to research conducted by investigative journalist Ritt Goldstein, the funding and personnel for Operation TIPS lead straight back to FEMA..
The Executive Branch, knowing that somebody would remember the abuses of the 1980s, deliberately hid the agency's involvement..
And perhaps most disturbing of all?.
In the summer of 2002, the conservative publication Newsmax reported FEMA was searching out qualified contractors for three $6 million dollar building projects..
What's on the blueprints?.
Three temporary cities, supposedly for use by Americans fleeing a nuclear, chemical, or biological attack..
Of course, this was precisely the excuse given for Giuffrida's internment camps..
Probably just a coincidence, right?.
Right?.

FEMA..The Secret Government..
By Harry V. Martin with research assistance from David Caul
Copyright FreeAmerica and Harry V. Martin, 1995
Some people have referred to it as the "secret government" of the United States..
It is not an elected body, it does not involve itself in public disclosures, and it even has a quasi-secret budget in the billions of dollars..
This government organization has more power than the President of the United States or the Congress, it has the power to suspend laws, move entire populations, arrest and detain citizens without a warrant and hold them without trial, it can seize property, food supplies, transportation systems, and can suspend the Constitution..
Not only is it the most powerful entity in the United States, but it was not even created under Constitutional law by the Congress..
It was a product of a Presidential Executive Order..
No, it is not the U.S. military nor the Central Intelligence Agency, they are subject to Congress..
The organization is called FEMA, which stands for the Federal Emergency Management Agency..
Originally conceived in the Richard Nixon Administration, it was refined by President Jimmy Carter and given teeth in the Ronald Reagan and George Bush Administrations..
FEMA had one original concept when it was created, to assure the survivability of the United States government in the event of a nuclear attack on this nation..
It was also provided with the task of being a federal coordinating body during times of domestic disasters, such as earthquakes, floods and hurricanes..
Its awesome powers grow under the tutelage of people like Lt. Col. Oliver North and General Richard Secord, the architects on the Iran-Contra scandal and the looting of America's savings and loan institutions..
FEMA has even been given control of the State Defense Forces, a rag-tag, often considered neo-Nazi, civilian army that will substitute for the National Guard, if the Guard is called to duty overseas..
THE MOST POWERFUL ORGANIZATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Though it may be the most powerful organization in the United States, few people know it even exists..
But it has crept into our private lives..
Even mortgage papers contain FEMA's name in small print if the property in question is near a flood plain..
FEMA was deeply involved in the Los Angeles riots and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Area..
Some of the black helicopter traffic reported throughout the United States, but mainly in the West, California, Washington, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and Colorado, are flown by FEMA personnel..
FEMA has been given responsibility for many new disasters including urban forest fires, home heating emergencies, refugee situations, urban riots, and emergency planning for nuclear and toxic incidents..
In the West, it works in conjunction with the Sixth Army..
FEMA was created in a series of Executive Orders..
A Presidential Executive Order, whether Constitutional or not, becomes law simply by its publication in the Federal Registry..
Congress is by-passed..
Executive Order Number 12148 created the Federal Emergency Management Agency that is to interface with the Department of Defense for civil defense planning and funding..
An "emergency czar" was appointed..
FEMA has only spent about 6 percent of its budget on national emergencies, the bulk of their funding has been used for the construction of secret underground facilities to assure continuity of government in case of a major emergency, foreign or domestic..
Executive Order Number 12656 appointed the National Security Council as the principal body that should consider emergency powers..
This allows the government to increase domestic intelligence and surveillance of U.S. citizens and would restrict the freedom of movement within the United States and grant the government the right to isolate large groups of civilians..
The National Guard could be federalized to seal all borders and take control of U.S. air space and all ports of entry..
Here are just a few Executive Orders associated with FEMA that would suspend the Constitution and the Bill of Rights..
These Executive Orders have been on record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the stroke of a Presidential pen..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication media..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003 allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005 allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049 assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period..
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months..
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation..
General Frank Salzedo, chief of FEMA's Civil Security Division stated in a 1983 conference that he saw FEMA's role as a "new frontier in the protection of individual and governmental leaders from assassination, and of civil and military installations from sabotage and/or attack, as well as prevention of dissident groups from gaining access to U.S. opinion, or a global audience in times of crisis."
FEMA's powers were consolidated by President Carter to incorporate..
the National Security Act of 1947, which allows for the strategic relocation of industries, services, government and other essential economic activities, and to rationalize the requirements for manpower, resources and production facilities..
the 1950 Defense Production Act, which gives the President sweeping powers over all aspects of the economy..
the Act of August 29, 1916, which authorizes the Secretary of the Army, in time of war, to take possession of any transportation system for transporting troops, material, or any other purpose related to the emergency.. and
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which enables the President to seize the property of a foreign country or national..
These powers were transferred to FEMA in a sweeping consolidation in 1979..
HURRICANE ANDREW FOCUSED ATTENTION ON FEMA
FEMA's deceptive role really did not come to light with much of the public until Hurricane Andrew smashed into the U.S. mainland..
As Russell R. Dynes, director of the Disaster Research Center of the University of Delaware, wrote in The World and I..
"...The eye of the political storm hovered over the Federal Emergency Management Agency. FEMA became a convenient target for criticism."
Because FEMA was accused of dropping the ball in Florida, the media and Congress commenced to study this agency..
What came out of the critical look was that FEMA was spending 12 times more for "black operations" than for disaster relief..
It spent $1.3 billion building secret bunkers throughout the United States in anticipation of government disruption by foreign or domestic upheaval..
Yet fewer than 20 members of Congress , only members with top security clearance, know of the $1.3 billion expenditure by FEMA for non-natural disaster situations..
These few Congressional leaders state that FEMA has a "black curtain" around its operations..
FEMA has worked on National Security programs since 1979, and its predecessor, the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency, has secretly spent millions of dollars before being merged into FEMA by President Carter in 1979..
FEMA has developed 300 sophisticated mobile units that are capable of sustaining themselves for a month..
The vehicles are located in five areas of the United States. They have tremendous communication systems and each contains a generator that would provide power to 120 homes each, but..
Have never been used for disaster relief..
FEMA's enormous powers can be triggered easily..
In any form of domestic or foreign problem, perceived and not always actual, emergency powers can be enacted..
The President of the United States now has broader powers to declare martial law, which activates FEMA's extraordinary powers..
Martial law can be declared during time of increased tension overseas, economic problems within the United States, such as a depression, civil unrest, such as demonstrations or scenes like the Los Angeles riots, and in a drug crisis..
These Presidential powers have increased with successive Crime Bills, particularly the 1991 and 1993 Crime Bills, which increase the power to suspend the rights guaranteed under the Constitution and to seize property of those suspected of being drug dealers, to individuals who participate in a public protest or demonstration..
Under emergency plans already in existence, the power exists to suspend the Constitution and turn over the reigns of government to FEMA and appointing military commanders to run state and local governments..
FEMA then would have the right to order the detention of anyone whom there is reasonable ground to believe...will engage in, or probably conspire with others to engage in acts of espionage or sabotage..
The plan also authorized the establishment of concentration camps for detaining the accused, but no trial..
Three times since 1984, FEMA stood on the threshold of taking control of the nation..
Once under President Reagan in 1984, and twice under President Bush in 1990 and 1992. But under those three scenarios, there was not a sufficient crisis to warrant risking martial law..
Most experts on the subject of FEMA and Martial Law insisted that a crisis has to appear dangerous enough for the people of the United States before they would tolerate or accept complete government takeover..
The typical crisis needed would be threat of imminent nuclear war, rioting in several U.S. cites simultaneously, a series of national disasters that affect widespread danger to the populous, massive terrorist attacks, a depression in which tens of millions are unemployed and without financial resources, or a major environmental disaster..
THREE TIMES FEMA STOOD BY READY FOR EMERGENCY
In April 1984, President Reagan signed Presidential Director Number 54 that allowed FEMA to engage in a secret national "readiness exercise" under the code name of REX 84..
The exercise was to test FEMA's readiness to assume military authority in the event of a "State of Domestic National Emergency" concurrent with the launching of a direct United States military operation in Central America..
The plan called for the deputation of U.S. military and National Guard units so that they could legally be used for domestic law enforcement..
These units would be assigned to conduct sweeps and take into custody an estimated 400,000 undocumented Central American immigrants in the United States. The immigrants would be interned at 10 detention centers to be set up at military bases throughout the country..
REX 84 was so highly guarded that special metal security doors were placed on the fifth floor of the FEMA building in Washington, D.C. Even long-standing employees of the Civil Defense of the Federal Executive Department possessing the highest possible security clearances were not being allowed through the newly installed metal security doors..
Only personnel wearing a special red Christian cross or crucifix lapel pin were allowed into the premises. Lt. Col. North was responsible for drawing up the emergency plan, which U.S. Attorney General William French Smith opposed vehemently..
The plan called for the suspension of the Constitution, turning control of the government over to FEMA, appointment of military commanders to run state and local governments and the declaration of Martial Law..
The Presidential Executive Orders to support such a plan were already in place..
The plan also advocated the rounding up and transfer to "assembly centers or relocation camps" of a least 21 million American Negroes in the event of massive rioting or disorder, not unlike the rounding up of the Jews in Nazi Germany in the 1930s..
The second known time that FEMA stood by was in 1990 when Desert Storm was enacted..
Prior to President Bush's invasion of Iraq, FEMA began to draft new legislation to increase its already formidable powers..
One of the elements incorporated into the plan was to set up operations within any state or locality without the prior permission of local or state authorities..
Such prior permission has always been required in the past..
Much of the mechanism being set into place was in anticipation of the economic collapse of the Western World..
The war with Iraq may have been conceived as a ploy to boost the bankrupt economy, but it only pushed the West into deeper recession..
The third scenario for FEMA came with the Los Angeles riots after the Rodney King brutality verdict..
Had the rioting spread to other cities, FEMA would have been empowered to step in. As it was, major rioting only occurred in the Los Angeles area, thus preventing a pretext for a FEMA response..
On July 5, 1987, the Miami Herald published reports on FEMA's new goals..
The goal was to suspend the Constitution in the event of a national crisis, such as nuclear war, violent and widespread internal dissent, or national opposition to a U.S. military invasion abroad..
Lt. Col. North was the architect. National Security Directive Number 52 issued in August 1982, pertains to the "Use of National Guard Troops to Quell Disturbances."
The crux of the problem is..
That FEMA has the power to turn the United States into a police state in time of a real crisis or a manufactured crisis. Lt. Col. North virtually established the apparatus for dictatorship..
Only the criticism of the Attorney General prevented the plans from being adopted. But intelligence reports indicate that FEMA has a folder with 22 Executive Orders for the President to sign in case of an emergency..
It is believed those Executive Orders contain the framework of North's concepts, delayed by criticism but never truly abandoned..
The crisis, as the government now see it, is civil unrest..
For generations, the government was concerned with nuclear war, but the violent and disruptive demonstrations that surrounded the Vietnam War era prompted President Nixon to change the direction of emergency powers from war time to times of domestic unrest..
Diana Raynolds, program director of the Edward R. Murrow Center, summed up the dangers of FEMA today and the public reaction to Martial Law in a drug crisis..
"It was James Madison's worst nightmare that a righteous faction would someday be strong enough to sweep away the Constitutional restraints designed by the framers to prevent the tyranny of centralized power, excessive privilege, an arbitrary governmental authority over the individual..
These restraints, the balancing and checking of powers among branches and layers of government, and the civil guarantees, would be the first casualties in a drug-induced national security state with Reagan's Civil Emergency Preparedness unleashed..
Nevertheless, there would be those who would welcome NSC (National Security Council) into the drug fray, believing that increasing state police powers to emergency levels is the only way left to fight American's enemy within..
In the short run, a national security state would probably be a relief to those whose personal security and quality of life has been diminished by drugs or drug related crime..
And, as the general public watches the progression of institutional chaos and social decay, they too may be willing to pay the ultimate price..
One drug free America for 200 years of democracy."
The first targets in any FEMA emergency would be Hispanics and Blacks, the FEMA orders call for them to be rounded up and detained..
Tax protesters, demonstrators against government military intervention outside U.S. borders, and people who maintain weapons in their homes are also targets..
Operation Trojan Horse is a program designed to learn the identity of potential opponents to martial law..
The program lures potential protesters into public forums, conducted by a "hero" of the people who advocates survival training. The list of names gathered at such meetings and rallies are computerized and then targeted in case of an emergency..
The most shining example of America to the world has been its peaceful transition of government from one administration to another..
Despite crises of great magnitude, the United States has maintained its freedom and liberty..
This nation now stands on the threshold of rule by non-elected people asserting non-Constitutional powers..
Even Congress cannot review a Martial Law action until six months after it has been declared..
For the first time in American history, the reigns of government would not be transferred from one elected element to another, but the Constitution, itself, can be suspended..
The scenarios established to trigger FEMA into action are generally found in the society today, economic collapse, civil unrest, drug problems, terrorist attacks, and protests against American intervention in a foreign country..
All these premises exist, it could only be a matter of time in which one of these triggers the entire emergency necessary to bring FEMA into action, and then it may be too late..
Because..
Under the FEMA plan..
There is no contingency by which Constitutional power is restored..
Seeing the Unseen, Learning the Unknown..
If you become my disciple, and continue in my word, you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.. John 8:30
Her very name means She Who Destroys the Light..
SEEING THE UNSEEN, LEARNING THE UNKNOWN
Her historical name is Persephone..
She stands atop the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The act of standing upon property is an aggressive legal demonstration..
Your lawyer will tell you that standing upon a thing is an ultimate proof of ownership in adverse possession..
Persephone, with the ancient pagan heritage she embodies, quite literally….owns the entire facility she crowns.. The United States Congress belongs to her..
But how did Persephone officials gave her the name Freedom achieve her place of honor over Washington?.
Who put her there?.
When?.
Under what circumstances?.
What is the theological history of this only authorized Symbol of American heritage?.
What is her future?.
Persephone was the Graeco roman goddess of the psyche or soul..
She was abducted by Saturn’s son Hades, who enthroned her as queen consort of his dominion, the underworld..
Significantly, Persephone was distinguished by fifth century Athenian scholastics for her... immaculate conception..
In 1854, Pope Pius IX issued an encyclical defining Immaculate Conception, an unbiblical scenario which holds that the Virgin Mary, like her son (and like Persephone) was preserved free from all stain of original sin in the first instant of her conception..
Within days, federal legislators in Washington became obsessed with expanding the Capitol dome. According to one official publication, Never before or since has an addition to the Capitol been so eagerly embraced by Congress..
Legislation was hastily passed which incorporated the new papal doctrine into the new dome’s cupola..
A week later, the immaculately-conceived goddess Persephone was ordained to surmount the legislative center of the United States..
Persephone was sculpted in Rome and installed atop the Capitol on the 47th anniversary of the death of America’s first Roman Catholic bishop, John Carroll..
The event was heralded by 47 gunshots, thirty five from a field battery on Capitol Hill, twelve from the surrounding forts..
The Capitol, incidentally, is erected on property owned by Bishop Carroll’s family. In the 1663 Maryland records, the exact site was recorded under the title Rome, its owner a man named Pope..
Roman Catholicism is a universal secular government domiciled at the Vatican City State in Rome. Its sovereign, the Pope, is an absolute ruler who is deemed infallible..
In the political context, the Roman Catholic Church has been determined by the United States District courts to be a foreign State (U.S. court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, case No. 85-1309)..
The Roman Catholic Church State, if it may so be called, requires universal obedience to the decrees of its omnipotent pope and his various councils..
Vatican Council II’s Constitutions on the Church (1964) requires secular officials, whoever they are, to expend all their energy for the growth of the church ad its continuous sanctification..
Are the American people being ruled by a foreign sovereign for whom the United States is a useful tool in his management of world order?.
Can what is lost be found?.

Many of you who have studied early American history know that Maryland was a Roman Catholic colony, named for the Virgin Mary..
It was founded by Lord Baltimore, Celilius Calvert, whose father, George, had been converted to Catholicism in 1625, about the time that King Charles I came to the throne in England..
Charles was the son of James I, under whose direction the King James Bible was published..
Anyway, George Calvert was the Secretary of the State to Charles I. When he converted to Catholicism, he resigned his position, because of difficulty in serving a Protestant King. But Charles himself married a Roman Catholic princess, Henrietta Marie, sister of Louis XIII of France..
He also promoted to the highest levels in the Church of England men who were sympathetic to the Roman Catholic rituals and traditions which greatly disturbed the Puritans and Calvinists..
Charles’ pro catholic policies came to a head in November 1641 when Irish Catholics massacred thousands of Ulster Protestants, and Charles somehow had to defend the Protestants..
Many did not trust Charles, asking how Charles could be trusted to protect Protestants when he had a Catholic wife and had promoted seemingly pro Catholic clergy?.
This actually led to the English revolution, where Charles was deposed and beheaded, and the monarchy abolished for some years..
The point is that George Calvert was Charles’ Secretary of State, and he converted to Catholicism. He resigned, but because Charles I needed money, he gave him territory in the New World, carved out of Virginia, hoping it would generate revenue..
George Calvert died before he could develop his grant, but his son, Cecilius Calvert, did so. On November 22, 1633, he sailed for the New World with two ships, the Ark and the Dove..
The Passenger list included three Jesuits, 16-20 Roman Catholic gentlemen (including Cecilius’ brother Leonard), and several hundred Protestant slaves and laborers. The voyage was spiritually directed by a Jesuit priest named Andrew White, remembered today as the Apostle to Maryland..
Today, the White House is named after him..
The Calverts’ personal property was called Rock Creek Farm, but in the 1663 property records, it is called Rome, and the branch of the Potomac River is called the Tiber..
This information was written in the 1902 edition of the Catholic Encyclopedia under the article on John Carroll. The information was deleted in the 1967 edition to keep the public from knowing that Washington, D.C., which was carved out of Maryland, was built on property whose title deeds show that it was either owned by Rome or dedicated to their use..
The layout for Washington, D.C., was under the task of a French engineer named Pierre Charles L’Enfant. He got the job at the suggestion of John Carroll, who under the Catholic Encyclopedia so helpfully told us that the District of Columbia was the property of Rome. L-Enfant laid out the main city streets in the shape of an upside down five pointed star of Baphomet, the satanic symbol of the goat. The White House, of course, marked the place of the goat’s mouth. The two ears on the sides were marked by Mt. Vernon Place and Washington Circle. The horns were marked by Logan Circle and Dupont Circle..
When L’Enfant numbered the city blocks, the series runs from Q Street North through the Capitol grounds down to the mouth of James Creek. All the numbers between 600 and 900 are assigned to blocks within this area except for the number 666 which is missing..
It must have been given to the only section of blocks in the 600 series the Capitol grounds. Of course, the prehistoric name for Rome was S T U R (from Satyr, short for Saturnia, or Saturn)..
In the ancient Chaldee language, which used its letters for numbers, S=60; T=400; U=6; R=200, for a total of 666.
A half century later, on December 8, 1584 Pope Pius IX declared the Ineffabilis Deus, the decree defining the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary..
It declared that Mary was conceived free of original sin and remained so throughout her life. Within days, the U.S. Congress enthusiastically rushed to put an addition on the top of the Capitol building as the only authorized Symbol of American Heritage..
It turned out to be a statute of Persephone, one of the Roman goddesses, whose statutes in the 4th century A.D. were taken over by the Church and renamed the Virgin Mary..
Few realize that Proclus, head of the Platonic Academy in Athens in the 5th century, described Persephone as having an Immaculate Conception. She was often known as Libera (Liberty), so the sculptor called his statue over the U.S. Capitol, Freedom..
She stands 19 Feet 6 inches, which works out to be 6+6+6 feet, and 6+6+6 inches. Persephone was placed on the Dome of the Capitol on December 2, 1863 in the middle of the Civil War..
The event was marked by a salute of 47 gunshots as a tribute to John Carroll, the Jesuit bishop who had put Washington D.C. under Mary’s protection. John Carroll had died 47 years earlier on December 3, 1816. The statue of Persephone (or Mary) was placed on the Dome 47 years after John Carroll’s last day on earth..
Present Lincoln did not attend the ceremony, claiming that he had a fever.. He was well aware of what was going on, but could do nothing to stop it..
Meanwhile, Constantino Btumidi had arrived from work to do the artwork for the Dome of the Capitol. He painted what is called the Apotheosis of Washington. That means the deification of George Washington..
According to Webster’s Dictionary, Apotheosis means the act of placing a prince or other distinguished person among the heathen deities..
Between the deified Washington and the earth flies the Virgin pursuing evildoers with the Roman Eagle at her side. Her position between heaven and earth was meant to identify her as the Mediatrix, the most prominent role of the Roman goddess, Minerva (or Venus). The eagle at her side is the mascot of Jupiter, the ruling god of Rome. It represents Roman justice..
In fact, the motto of our Justice Department is Qui Pro Domina Justita Sequitur, He who follows the Goddess Justica..
Persephone, or Minerva, or Venus (different names for the same goddess), when judging the dead in Hades, was called Justica. The Justice Department’s motto encircles the eagle, of course, who was said to follow Justicia..
Other details of this painting are too many to describe here, but when we focus upon the one young man in the painting who is called Young America, we will see the real point of our entire discussion..
Young America wears a little cap known as a Phrygian cap.. Phrygia was a district in Pergamum, or Pergamos, which Revelation 2:13 calls Satan’s seat..
Phrygian caps were given to freed slaves to show the world their liberated status. However, Roman law stated that this freedom could be revoked at any time for any cause. In other words, their liberty was given as a privilege, not as an inherent right..
The most significant fact of all comes when we look at the famous Black O b e l i s k of Shalmanezer, King of Assyria, which stands today in the British Museum..
It depicts King Jehu of Israel kneeling before the king of Assyria, paying tribute. In fact, this is the only ancient monument that portrays art wise a character in the bible that was alive at the time of the portrait. Jehu is pictured wearing a Phrygian Cap in order to show that he is free only because the king of Assyria has given him the privilege of freedom in exchange for tribute..
Jehu, you recall, is the one who fulfilled the prophetic word of Elijah that Ahab’s next generation would be killed and would cease to rule Israel..
This prophecy was given after Ahab and Jezebel killed Naboth (and his sons) and stole his vineyard. Jehu also destroyed Baal worship out of Israel (2Kings 10:28). But he failed to destroy or overthrow the golden calves (vs. 29)..
In fact, his destruction of Baal worship simply eliminated a denominational competitor for the religious devotion of the Israelites. The destruction of Baal worship merely solidified the golden calf as the national religion of Israel..
As we have already mentioned, on January 29, 2001, we were led to issue a divine decree to overthrow the golden calf..
We did so with little actual knowledge of what this signified in the world. I did not learn more about this until President’s Day, February 19th. Somehow that seems appropriate. If you have a Strong’s Concordance, look up the world translated calf..
It is number 5695 in Strong’s..
It is the Hebrew word Egel, pronounced essentially, EAGLE..
In the eyes of the people who decided to use the American Eagle as their national symbol, it was really the concept behind the Roman Eagle they were borrowing, and they made it palatable to the American public..
But the real power brokers behind the scenes were well versed in the Cabalah, the mystical Jewish writings, and in their way of thinking the eagle was identified with, the golden calf, the egel..
Hence, America was ruled by the golden calf from its inception to its overthrow January 29th. Of course, at this time the overthrow has been done in the spiritual dimension only. I have no idea when it will manifest in the world. We do know, however, that the golden calf was the lawful basis for the Prince of Persia’s petition to enter America. We had to remove those lawful grounds January 29th in order to deny him the right to enter this country..
We are now taking the princes of this world (the demons from hell) captive to prepare for world evangelism. Amen! For more documentation on Washington D.C. see David Ovason’s book The Secret Architecture of Our Nations’ Capitol. By Harper Collins Publishing ISBN 0-06-019537-1.
(Rev. 17:17-18) For Yahweh (God) hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of Yahweh (God) shall be fulfilled (18). And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth..
(Rev. 18:1-11) And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory (2) And he cried mightily with a strong voice saying Babylon the great is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. (3) For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. (4) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. (5) For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh (God) hath remembered her iniquities. (6) Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. (7) How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. (8) Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is Yahweh Sovereign who judgeth her. (9) And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, (10) Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour is thy judgment come. (11) And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: For more information go to www.godskingdomministries.org

Very soon, every American will be required to register their biological property (Ed. Note .. their person) in a National System (Ed. Note .. U.S. Department of Commerce Vital Statistics) designed to keep track of the people (Ed. Note .. birth certificate) and that will operate under the ancient system of pledging..
By such methodology, we can compel people to submit to our agenda, which will affect our security (U.S. Bankruptcy as of 1788 on 18 Million Livre default) as a charge back for our flat paper currency (Ed. Note .. Federal Reserve Notes)..
Every American will be forced to register or suffer not being able to work and earn a living..
They will be our chattel, and we will hold the security interest over them forever by operation of the law merchant (Ed. Note .. Uniform Commercial Code) under the scheme of secured transactions (Ed. Note .. UCC .. 1 Financing Statement)..
Americans, by unknowingly or unwittingly delivering the Bills of lading (Ed. Note .. birth registration information and SS Applications and license applications) to us will be rendered bankrupt and insolvent, forever to remain economic slaves through taxation, secured by their pledges (Ed. Note .. contracts)..
They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value (Ed. Note. $650,000 per person) designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser, for not one man in a million could ever figure our plans, and if by accident one or two should figure it out, we have in our arsenal plausible deniability..
After all, this is the only logical way to fund government, by floating liens and debt to the registrants in the forms of benefits and privileges..
This will inevitably reap to us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor to this fraud which we will call Social Insurance (Ed. Note .. Security .. FICA)..
Without realizing it, every American will insure us for any loss we may incur and in this manner; every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly..
The people will become helpless and without any hope for their REDEMPTION (Ed. Note outside of Yashushua Ha Mashiach Hebrew name (Jesus Christ Greek name), and we will employ the high office of the President of our dummy corporation (Ed. Note ..

*This was 22 years before Social Security Insurance or FICA came into existence..
*In 1964, 10 days before he was assassinated, President John F.

*Every American who registers for a birth certificate or applies for a license or a Social Security Card, is reduced or stigmatized from the free class of Sovereign People, to subordinate status under contract to the International Banksters by binding agreement.

Rick believes in a reduced role for government..
Government involvement is only justified in cases where the defense by a third party of life, property, and free exchange is required..
He recognizes the Constitutional authority of the federal Government to regulate commerce, but believes that this regulation should only extend itself to assuring that American citizens are able to participate in fair and free exchange in a free market..
He believes that the word regulate means to assure that free markets allow all to participate without limitation .. not to assure that only a limited few are allowed to participate..
Rick supports government funding for research only in cases where national security and the development of the American economy require it..
In almost all cases, this means that research and development can occur through corporations, private foundations, and individuals interested in the benefits, both financial and intellectual, of such research and development..
Rick supports the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution, which indicates that the states, not the Federal Government, are responsible for transportation, education, and other policy areas not specified in the Constitution..

..Thomas Jefferson to
Maryland Republicans, 1809. ME 16:359
A noiseless course, not meddling with the affairs of others, unattractive of notice, is a mark that society is going on in happiness. If we can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them, they must become happy..

We DEMAND..
The MKULTRA perpetrators be charged and punished for the illegal kidnapping and torture of adults and children..
All MKULTRA survivors be compensated and receive a public apology from the United States government (as have the radiation experiment subjects)..
That the protection of classified (secret) human experiment subjects, lost when the United States quietly exited the Nuremburg Protocols, be replaced..
That publicly accessible oversight of all classified (secret) human experimentation, both government and private, be established..
That public controls placed on the development, possession and use of psycho elctronic weapons so that any activity of this type can be stopped and prevented in the future..
