"As far as I could find out, the flu hit only the vaccinated..."

A friend of mine, who is a pharmacist, just got this letter last week [mid-April 2008]. After he mentioned it and showed it to me, it reminded me of something I had read some time ago regarding an epidemic from the past, the Spanish Flu. Below, is that letter and some reading regarding that period in history. Do take a look.

Dr. James R. Shannon, former director of the National institute of health declared, "the only safe vaccine is one that is never used."

Maybe it's silly for me to think it, but wouldn't the challenging of the immune system by mass vaccinations of people who might already be unknowingly infected, exacerbate the situation for them? Why do medical doctors sometimes vaccinate patients who come in for having possibly been exposed to the disease for which they are being vaccinated? Is it wise to use vaccination as if it were a treatment such as an antibiotic?

You may have noticed that researchers are now saying they have analyzed the virus that caused the 1918 global pandemic of flu. They are linking it to a bird virus, which stirs the pot on the current flap about avian flu in Asia. The PR goes this way: If this current bird virus mutates just a little bit in the wrong direction, we could see a replay of the 1918 disaster. Here is another analysis, written over 30 years ago by Eleanor McBean. This excerpt, from chapter two of her book, Vaccination Condemned, makes a quite different observation:

Chap. 2: Vaccination Condemned

by Eleanor McBean
"I WAS AN ON-THE-SPOT OBSERVER OF THE 1918 INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC."

All the doctors and people who were living at the time of the 1918 Spanish Influenza epidemic say it was the most terrible disease the world has ever had. Strong men, hale and hearty, one day would be dead the next. The disease had the characteristics of the black death added to typhoid, diphtheria, pneumonia, smallpox, paralysis and all the diseases the people had been vaccinated with immediately following World War 1. Practically the entire population had been injected "seeded" with a dozen or more diseases — or toxic serums. When all those doctor-made diseases started breaking out all at once it was tragic.

That pandemic dragged on for two years, kept alive with the addition of more poison drugs administered by the doctors who tried to suppress the symptoms. As far as I could find out, the flu hit only the vaccinated. Those who had refused the shots escaped the flu. My family had refused all the vaccinations so we remained well all the time. We knew from the health teachings of Graham, Trail, Tilden and others, that people cannot contaminate the body with poisons without causing disease.

When the flu was at its peak, all the stores were closed as well as the schools, businesses — even the hospital, as the doctors and nurses had been vaccinated too and were down with the flu. No one was on the streets. It was like a ghost town. We [who didn’t taken any vaccines] seemed to be the only family which didn’t get the flu; so my parents went from house to house doing what they could to look after the sick, as it was impossible to get a doctor then. If it were possible for germs, bacteria, virus, or bacilli to cause disease, they had plenty of opportunity to attack my parents when they were spending many hours a day in the sick rooms. But they didn’t get the flu and they didn’t bring any germs home to attack us children and cause anything. None of our family had the flu — not even a sniffle— and it was in the winter with deep snow on the ground.

It has been said that the 1918 flu epidemic killed 20,000,000 people throughout the world. But, actually, the doctors killed them with their crude and deadly treatments and drugs. This is a harsh accusation but it is nevertheless true, judging by the success of the drugless doctors in comparison with that of the medical doctors.

While the medical men and medical hospitals were losing 33% of their flu cases, the non-medical hospitals such as BATTLE CREEK, KELLOGG and MACFADDEN’S HEALTH-RESTORIUM were getting almost 100% healings with their water cure, baths, enemas, etc., fasting and certain other simple healing methods, followed by carefully worked out diets of natural foods. One health doctor didn’t lose a patient in eight years. The very successful health treatment of one of those drugless doctors who didn’t lose any patients will be given in the other part of this book, titled VACCINATION CONDEMNED, to be published a little later.

If the medical doctors had been as advanced as the drugless doctors, there would not have been those 20 million deaths from the medical flu treatment.

There was seven times more disease among the vaccinated soldiers than among the unvaccinated civilians, and the diseases were those they had been vaccinated against. One soldier who had returned from overseas in 1912 told me that the army hospitals were filled with cases of infantile paralysis and he wondered why grown men should have an infant disease. Now, we know that paralysis is a common after-effect of vaccine poisoning. Those at home didn’t get the paralysis until after the world-wide vaccination campaign in 1918.

Vaccine not virus responsible for Spanish flu

TCM Archives > Irish Examiner > 2003/05/08

Thursday, May 08, 2003 : FRONT IRELAND SPORT WORLD BUSINESS
RYLE DWYER writes on the horror of the 1918-20 pandemic which the propaganda says was caused by Spanish flu (Irish Examiner, May 1).

How did they know it was the virus of Spanish flu that killed millions of civilians and soldiers?

This disaster occurred when viruses were unknown to medical science. It took a British science team to identify the first virus in man in 1933.As regards the origin of the outbreak, he relates that a senior US army officer suggested that the Germans might have been responsible for the bug as part of their war effort, by spreading it in theatres or where large numbers of people assembled.

Did they also spread it among their own people, killing 400,000 as reported?Ryle would have us believe that all those American soldiers who died from non-combatant causes may have died from Spanish flu.

But US Army records show that seven men dropped dead after being vaccinated.A report from US Secretary of War Henry L Stimson not only verified these deaths but also stated that there had been 63 deaths and 28,585 cases of hepatitis as a direct result of yellow fever vaccination during only six months of the war.

That was only one of the 14 to 25 shots given to recruits.Army records also reveal that after vaccination became compulsory in the US Army in 1911, not only did typhoid increase rapidly but all other vaccinal diseases increased at an alarming rate.

After America entered the war in 1917, the death rate from typhoid vaccination rose to the highest point in the history of the US Army.The deaths occurred after the shots were given in sanitary American hospitals and well-supervised army camps in France, where sanitation had been practised for years.The report of the Surgeon-General of the US Army shows that during 1917 there were admitted into the army hospitals 19,608 men suffering from anti-typhoid inoculation and vaccinia.

This takes no account of those whose vaccine diseases were attributed to other causes.The army doctors knew all these cases of disease and death were due to vaccination and were honest enough to admit it in their medical reports.When army doctors tried to suppress the symptoms of typhoid with a stronger vaccine, it caused a worse form of typhoid paratyphoid.

But when they concocted an even stronger vaccine to suppress that one, they created an even worse disease Spanish flu.After the war, this was one of the vaccines used to protect a panic-stricken world from the soldiers returning from WWI battlefronts infected with dangerous diseases.

The rest is history.

WHY YOU SHOULD AVOID TAKING VACCINES

Notes on the Current Banking Crisis and the Elite MBA Diploma Mills

What are we to make of the current financial crisis and looming insolvencies (& bailouts) of some of the most "respected" investment banking institutions with such cool household names like Bear Stearns and Citibank? How could the three-piece suits not see this coming? Even with the most rudimentary knowledge of technical charting and the behaviour of markets, any fool with an economics or finance degree from any community college should have seen this coming. How sustainable were home price increases exceeding 25 to 30% annually in many areas of the country? The problem with human nature and markets is the belief that what goes up just keeps going up. The "tyranny of the moment." But why were the best and the brightest from the best regarded financial institutions creating incredibly leveraged, toxic financial instruments that were doomed to fail should any unperceived, yet predictably bound to occur, economic downturn? The current problems we are witness to are not solely due to the mortgage mess, but also due to credit swaps and other complex instruments referred to as "derivatives" that even Warren Buffet doesn't understand. These financial instruments had begun to exist more than a decade ago.

I am convinced that the big-boys, maybe at the CEO level and definitely at the central bank level and above, knew where this would all end up. Ultimately, any discerning individual with two brain cells who gives this some thought knows where this all ends up in the long run. Are we near the end of the "long run?" Who really knows, but logically, a debt-based monetary system, whose operation is dependent upon having interest payments service previously issued debt by issuing yet more debt which incurs yet more interest obligation, which is serviced by issuing yet again, more debt (...you get the picture), is mathematically unsustainable. It wouldn't surprise me if these banksters, represented by ethereal institutions like the International Monetary Fund, the Bank of International Settlements in Basil, Switzerland and the Bank of England, have been orchestrating a plan to foster transition to a new system and I can bet that this plan has been in the wings for some time now. What could that be? A Federal Reserve bank of the world which might eventually be paired with a cashless system? Surely the public would never go along with such a system...but what if the public were taken beyond the edge of the economic abyss? Might they beg for any solution, no matter the cost, to relieve them from suffering?"

Slowly, evidence is coming to light of the deliberate financial take-downs of the past, starting with the money panics of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including the Great Depression, which eventually killed state-chartered banking and created political acceptance of central banking in the United States, just as intended. If history doesn't exactly repeat, at least it often seems to rhyme. What to believe other than that the current situation could have only been fostered and encouraged with insane easy money and suspiciously absent regulatory oversight, which included enticing home buyers into committing bank fraud on their "no-doc" mortgage applications? The lack of guidance and enforcement of predatory lending regulations, which are especially required in an environment of easy credit with its concomitant moral hazard, were curiously not in the way of what was obviously all-out predatory lending practices. Basically, the bankers were desperate for more warm bodies to create more debt (money) for the system with promissory note signatures.

Of course, one individual New York Governor was about to take the money-changers to task until his weakness was used to stop that unusually noble endeavour. My, my, my, what a coincidence. Nothing changes in politics now, does it? Even the ignorance of the public regarding the most obvious of machinations. Do you believe that [former] New York Governor, Eliot Spitzer, is the only politico in office now known to have shelled out money on call-girls? Please....how transparent.

Sustaining the System; Not Only a Matter of Greed, but of Trained Ignorance
Consistently, highly intelligent young men and women are indoctrinated in Keynesian Economic Theory by the elite MBA diploma mills like WHARTON, STANFORD and THE LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS. Many of these young MBA types, who are probably not privy to the "plan," are certainly running around in panic mode right now as this crisis continues to unfold. I believe these graduates, from the most desired post-graduate business schools, are given high starting salaries and key positions based upon their "proper" training from this cream-of-the-crop education pipeline. They are purposefully indoctrinated into the Keynesian economic model and kept deliberately ignorant of the sound monetary systems which have successfully existed for hundreds of years prior. I would not be surprised to learn that the professors, which I suspect are gate-keepers in these institutions, are charged with continuously monitoring and watching for any deviations of any candidate away from the originally selected "yes-men" characteristics and/or knowledge beyond the program text books. Creative thinking and aggressive solutions oriented styles are encouraged and expected, but only within a well defined box of the current economic paradigm. This assists and assures the maintenance of the status quo of the current system so as to avoid any rocking of the boat from the chairs of their consulting firms and investment banking offices and in certain cases, from key leadership positions. You could take an academic superstar who speaks heresy from the likes of the free market advocate, the late Ludwig von Mises of the Austrian School of economic theory, and he would be shunned from such lucrative employ. What's wrong, in my opinion, with our current "Keynesian" monetary situation, a non-free market system which is maintained by government interventionist policies? You can explore for yourself, but what confidence could anyone have in the longevity of a monetary system advocated by a man who, in reply to a question regarding the sustainability of his theories in practice responded with, "In the long run, we'll all be dead."(?)

A couple of years ago, I remember working with a very soon to be grad from one of these hotshot schools. I asked many questions about the program he was going through and commented about an email I had coincidentally sent to what I found out was one of his professors, regarding his flawed criticism of hard money [gold/silver]. I also discussed with this student the economic fundamentals of the US economy and how precious metals were to continue their appreciation to the point of values that would shock the investment world. He had no idea what to make of my predictions for gold and silver and actually could not process the decaying fundamentals of the economy I was trying to relay to him, much less how the economy used to function on sound money. If he had been made knowledgeable of monetary history and in a position of more seniority to inform higher level officers of his employer regarding the irresponsible risks behind the exotic financial instruments precipitating the current crisis, would he have been well received? It was hard for me to believe that in less than a few months, this individual would be working at a major financial firm advising very wealthy clients.

I am convinced that some of the important qualities sought for recruitment or acceptence to "the club" by way of these schools, is BOTH high intelligence coupled with an Orwellian ignorance of economic history and naivete...and these traits CAN co-exist. The professors are also more than likely monitors to judge the "proper" mindset of the future robotic investment bankers and consultants needed for the system to thrive and continue on its current reckless path to oblivion.

POOR PETER!!


"When, through the process of law, the common people lose their homes, they will become more docile and more easily governed through the strong arm of government applied by a central power of wealth under leading financiers. These truths are well known among our principal men who are now engaged in forming imperialism to govern the world. By dividing the voter through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting for questions of no importance." The American Bankers Association Digest, 1924

A Post-Terrorism Checklist & Raw News Footage From the Memory Hole Archives

With the current government assisted climate of fear vis-vis boogeymen-against-the-state, I though it appropriate that we take a look at a short checklist that the citizenry might adopt and independently execute subsequent to every "lone" gunman assassination or act of terror. The mere question of "qui-bono" should be enough to cause the public to break out this checklist.

Without regard to "who" the actual terrorists are or could be, has there really been much thought regarding how terrorists who committed acts such as the Oklahoma City Bombing or 911 would have materially benefited? Is the intent of an organic act of terror a desire to cause the state to weaken? Subsequent to every emergency, evidence would not bear this out. Military spending, foreign adventurism, as well as the creation of a national security state and increases in surveillance of the citizenry is always the result. Beyond the simplistic notion of motive being revenge and anger by some angry bad guys bent upon "hurting us and hating us for our freedom," how about simply following who stood to gain the most if not profit-wise by the military-industrial complex, but by the disempowerment of the citizenry? Why not follow the money? I have yet to find information on the trail of money leading to 911-- in the 911 Commission Report. Although there is information to be had from other sources.

INDICATORS OF A FALSE FLAG ATTACK OR CONSPIRATORIAL ASSASSINATION
(a sample checklist)

1). The sophistication of the attack and the seeming inability of the surveillance apparatus of the state to follow the money trail to who or what financed the operation.

2). Government release of the names of the suspected perpetrators within hours of the event in order to prevent free and independent speculation from "street-level" law enforcement investigators and the public. This is accompanied by a neatly packaged official story which ignores glaring evidence.

3). The ignoring of concurrent witness statements and/or testimony which contradicts the official version.

4). An official timeline of the paraded suspects (patsies), which includes a well documented, yet very simplistically incriminating path leading directly to the crime. This is the smoke and mirrors which allows the unsophisticated citizenry to be led by the nose in reaching the desired conclusion regardless of contradicting and often irrefutable evidence such as forensic evidence.

5). Destruction of the crime scene and of the evidence (the 911 crime scenes and the Murrah Building), before a thorough forensic investigation.

6). Establishing the motive for state sponsored terrorism, the war against you: Thick legislation which may include gun control measures, restrictions of civil rights accompanied by increased surveillance and monitoring of the public. For terror acts said to originate externally, sabre rattling for aggression toward a foreign state usually for the control of mineral commodities. The level of suspicion should be directly proportional to the speed at which seemingly pre-written and voluminous legislation is presented to law-makers after the event. Time is of the essense before the impact of the event fades and fear is more valuable to the state than the suspicion aroused by the swiftness with which the legislation is brought forth.

7). In some cases the "accidental deaths" of officials and key witnesses to the event. Operatives engaged in such events are often dispatched after they have exhausted their usefulness.

8). In the case of a political assassination, a search for evidence or clues that the murdered politician made promises and/or acted to empower the citizenry at the expense of government, the corporations which run government or the bankers who own government.

If there's one thing Orwell got wrong about the future in his book 1984, it was the sustainability of the state's grip on the distribution of information. Since the state apparatus cannot always control all avenues of information, the Memory Hole has been a valuable tool of information manipulation and propaganda. Such is not the case today, where the public can recall live news coverage on the internet surrounding the event(s) of interest. The extent of the random nature and free flow of information on the internet, the ability for anyone to access certain items of information from the Memory Hole at will, verify it by checking more than a few limited sources and to share it, creates a problem for the current statist paradigm to continue indefintely. Little by little though, we see creeping attempts with legislation disguised as "protection for the children," to filter and control the internet. This, from a bunch of pedophiles. As a hard and fast rule, in order to maintain a grip on power, the ruling elite must maintain a grip on the minds of those they would desire to rule. No exceptions. To keep minds in check, you create a climate of fear, attempt to control information and/or set up disinformation campaigns to limit empowerment of the citizenry and seek to control the avenues of information beginning with the education system.

The most accurate information is information obtained fresh after an event. Unedited and uncut news video often fits the bill. This may include information which might never be reported on or aired again, but nonetheless obtainable due to viewers who know better and switch on their VCRs and digital recorders immediately as things unfold, knowing full well that there is a possibility that the mind control machine may go into a full reality shaping cycle which usually includes never showing raw footage again.

Now, let's take a look at the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City of April 19, 1995. In the raw video news footage on scene subsequent to the event, not only are there countless witnesses sounding off, we also hear from the news desks, reports of official statements confirming what witnesses have stated as well as revealing statements from official sources. Of course, once the ministry of propaganda gets up to speed, the public is eventually told what they saw or are seeing and what happened on the particular day of interest. Keep in mind that the clips you are about to see were buried and witnesses to (disregarded) material facts, were never subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury or the trials. One witness actually wrote to the court offering her testimony which differed greatly than what was officially reported or allowed to be revealed at trial. The response from the court? "No, thank you."

From the Memory Hole video archives:


A lttle addition to the video you just saw. A few official documents below regarding the presence of, and what was also described at the scene as, undetonated high explosives. You may click on the documents to enlarge them:

Many questions remain regarding the bombing of the Murrah building. These include questions of a forensic nature and perjury from the FBI crime lab regarding the presence of ammonium nitrate (fertilizer) at the scene which would fit nicely with the given scenario by confirming that a fertlizer bomb may have been involved in causing damage.

Let's hear some of what former FBI crime lab supervisor and whistle blower Dr. Fred Whitehurst had to say about that in this interview:

BATF Tipped Off?


Now with all the evidence and obvious cover-ups pointing to a most probable source of violence waged against the population; evidence which is replete all over the place, not much thought should be required to make some connections here. This and examples of new evidence from a bit further back in history, should allow for most humans to extricate their craniums out of their rectal orifices in order to engage in some serious thinking. The talent of discernment and awareness as applied toward the critical analysis of the legitimacy of government action is not a function of intelligence, but more a function of the extent to which artificial wombs are constructed by emotionally fragile humans, who would regard the state as a protective nanny once separated from the bosoms of their mothers. Once a critical mass of individuals recognize the fact that the implied social contract between the public and the state is a one way street, (i.e. loyalty to the state obligates no legal reciprocation by the state to protect the public), governments, which operate on the basis of coercion and violence, will begin to lose their power. Should things proceed to that point, don't expect this dying dragon to go out without a violent writhing of its tail. Sometimes, paradigm shifts are accompanied by instability. Individual empowerment begins when the manipulative tool of the state, fear, no longer exists. Now the race is between the achievement of critical mass of awareness among the population, and the next state sponsored act(s) of terror in order to frighten the naive and gullible mass of people who would insist that their overlords restrict their freedoms in order to merely feel safe. Does living in such a cage make life worth living?


If this look at the OKC Bombing peaked your interest, you may click the source link of the following:

".....blast through air is a very inefficient energy coupling mechanism against heavily reinforced concrete beams and columns. Second, blast damage potential initially falls off more rapidly than an inverse function of the distance cubed. That is why in conventional weapons development, one seeks accuracy over yield for hard targets. That is also why in the World Trade Center bombing (where the only source of blast damage was a truck bomb), the column in the middle of the bombed-out cavity was relatively untouched, although reinforced concrete floors were completely stripped away for several floors above and below the point of the bomb's detonation (see Time Magazine, 3-8-93, p 35). By contrast, heavily reinforced concrete structures can be destroyed effectively through detonation of explosives in contact with the reinforced concrete beams and columns."

Excerpts: How to be a Successful Tyrant

"How to be a Successful Tyrant"

The Megalomaniac Manifesto

by Larken Rose

Control the Choices
Rather than trying to squelch all disagreement (which you will find to be impossible), focus instead on controlling the "spectrum" of ideas discussed in public; define the limits of what kinds of beliefs are "civilized" and "reasonable." For example, a public debate on whether you should rule all the peasants is unacceptable, but a public debate on the particular manner or degree of your rule is not only allowable but desirable. If your subjects are arguing over whether you should take 60% of what they produce or 70% of what they produce, you have already won, since both "sides" are implicitly conceding that you should take at least 60% of what they produce.

The reason such a "debate" is desirable is that it keeps the peasants thinking they have some say, and that they are knowledgeable and "involved," without actually providing them with any means to achieve freedom. Without this type of outlet, they may end up openly resisting you. As another tactic, do not vary the amount of oppression, but vary its justification. For example, you can win followers by suggesting that the peasants should be extorted to "help the poor,"instead of being extorted to finance a war (or vice versa). Of course, ideas such as "Don't extort us at all" must be kept out ofthe public debate entirely. Let the peasants find release in arguing over what flavor of oppression they will have, but never over whether they will be oppressed at all.

Comparative Oppression
Remarkably, if you give the peasants a choice between your desired level of control and something even worse (if there is anything worse), they will see you as a pro-freedom hero. Peasants tend to be remarkably unobservant, forgetful, and not at all objective. If you offer only to punch them in the nose rather than shoot them,they will praise you for it. If you promise to kick them in the head twice a day rather than three times a day, they will vote foryou in droves.

A classic example of such "comparative oppression" can be seen inthe so-called "two party" political system now in place in the United States. The party which promises to cut the levels of federal extortion back to 50% of what an individual produced are praised as being for "limited government." Of course, by any objective measure, they are advocates of oppression. Only by comparing themselves to something worse can they dupe the peasants into believing they are in any way pro-freedom.

Influence, Not Censorship
In addition to controlling the "education" (indoctrination) system, one of the best ways to ensure that your subjects are getting a daily dose of your indoctrination is to control the "news" they are exposed to. Of course, just reporting significant facts and occurrences provides no opportunity for thought control, but deciding which facts to mention, which facts to ignore, which"facts" to make up, and how to spin the facts, while throwing in opinion-shaping messages disguised as "reporting," can give enormous control.

The skillful tyrant controls the message, not by blatant censorship and state-owned media, but by more subtle means of "influence." Otherwise, the peasants will openly resist the censorship, will not believe your message, and may even create their own "underground"media to combat it. But if the media appears to them to be a neutral and objective "free press," your ability to control their thoughts and beliefs will be enormous.

Like any other business, "the press" can be controlled and manipulated without the use of open force. If you can get people of like mind (i.e., elitists who think they have every right to rule the "unwashed masses") to hold the highest positions at the newspapers, TV stations, etc., they will push your agenda for you,without the need of a conscious conspiracy. In any hierarchical organization, all you need to do is have an ally at the top, and the underlings will naturally "evolve" to match your agenda. Think of it as "trickle-down tyranny," where those who see eye to eye with the top dog will get promoted, will have job security, etc., while those who see things differently will naturally want to leave, or will get fired, or will at least get muzzled. If the CEO or owner of the "Anytown Daily Newspaper"is an elitist buddy of yours, and supports all of your power-grab plans, it is only natural that his publication will reflect that mindset. The underlings will know that to write something the boss disagrees with is to write their own pink slip.

"If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth; to lie outright; to pervert; to vilify; to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. ... We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks; they pull the strings and we dance." [John Swinton (New York Times Chief of Staff)]

Infecting Existing Media
Making your own media from scratch is both difficult and unnecessary. Publications like Pravda, which are well known for being mouth pieces for governments, are not very effective because the people know not to trust them. It is far better to use your influence to take over (not openly, of course) already existing media outlets that already have many viewers, listeners or readers,and that have a certain level of credibility. With a little patience, it is not difficult to transform a relatively "objective"organization into a perpetual advertisement for your agenda. People in the media like attention and like to feel important. It is standard operating procedure for politicians to talk only to the reporters they like, meaning those who don't give them problems, contradict them, make fools of them, etc. Those who kiss up to politicians will hold their positions as "reporters" on government affairs. The others don't get interviews, have nothing to"report," and so have no jobs. Again, there is no need for a conspiracy; human nature will do the work for you.

Having "connections" with the management of media outlets is the best route, since you can easily have any reporter fired (or worse) if he writes something unfavorable about you. As with any industry, if you implement all manner of "regulation" of the media, then you always have some "legal" way to hurt an organization that spreads messages harmful to your agenda.

"The majority of Americans get their news and information about what is going on with their government from entities that are licensed by and subject to punishment at the hands of that very government." [Neal Boortz]

But aside from the occasional uppity reporter who needs to be put in his place (a coffin, perhaps), it is far more effective to avoid confrontation and simply use your ill-gotten wealth and influence to mold the media outlets into what you want them to be. Any company that achieves top status will be afraid of losing it, and so won't want to anger someone with as much power as you have at your disposal. People with something to lose tend to become docile and don't "make waves." (To wit, you can count on one finger all the strongly libertarian "reporters" who can still be seen on the mainstream American "news.")

Spectrum of Discussion
One effective method of propaganda does not deal with what is saidbut with what is not discussed. The range of opinions the peasants are exposed to has an enormous impact on what they will perceive as reasonable. Peasants have few ideas of their own, so if they are exposed to only two "different" views, both of which support your plans for control, they will almost certainly think only about which pro-tyranny viewpoint they like better, rather than being original enough to decide that neither of the presented viewpoints makes sense.

"In the United States, the majority undertakes to supply a multitude of ready-made opinions for the use of individuals, who are thus relieved from the necessity of forming opinions of their own." [Alexis de Tocqueville]

The peasants must feel they have a choice of what to believe, so the message must look like a "debate" instead of a sermon. However, the "debate" should be so limited that anything even approaching an anti-tyranny opinion must be seen as outside the realm of rational debate.

"The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity, but the one that removes awareness of other possibilities." [Alan Bloom]

If the accepted public discourse about some government redistribution scheme is nothing more than petty bickering over details, then someone who comes out and suggests doing away with the scheme entirely can easily be painted as an extremist crackpot.

"For more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents such as my encounter with Castro to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it." - From Rockefeller's "Memoirs", (p.405).

Just the facts:

The CFR is the U.S. equivalent to the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) in Great Britain. Professor Carroll Quigley explains:

"At the end of the war of 1914, it became clear that the organization of this system had to be greatly extended... the tasks was entrusted to Lionel Curtis who established, in England and each dominion, a front organization to the existing local Round Table Group. This front organization called the Royal Institute of International Affairs, had as its nucleus in each area the existing submerged Round Table Group. In New York it was known as the Council on Foreign Relations, and was a front for J. P. Morgan and Company.... In fact, the original plans for the Royal Institute of International Affairs and the Council on Foreign Relations were drawn up at Paris." "Tragedy and the Hope", Carroll Quigley, 951-952.

Banks and tax-exempt foundations were essential to this global vision:

"The powers of financial capitalism has another far reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole...."

"The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Bale, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank... sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards...." Carroll Quigley, 324

"In 1924, the chairman of the board of the Midland Bank said, "...banks can and do create money... And they who control the credit of the nation direct the policy of Government and hold in the hollow of their hands the destiny of the people." Carroll Quigley, 325

Gold; the Ultimate Currency & a Short Video Course on the Subprime Mortgage Crisis

Since The Bull Market in Things and Portfolio Check-up were posted to this site earlier this year, I thought perhaps it was time to take another look at the growing elephant in the living room; gold. There is a tiny minority of Americans who recognize what it going on and who have been quietly investing in this asset class or currency. Yes, it is still a currency, after thousands of years and it certainly has been trading like one (copper, the base metal bellwether has been plunging of late while gold stubbornly appreciates in price). Since most investors invest in what's popular, higher prices will have to be realized before they take the plunge. Once they see gold breaking through $1,000 US (and silver in the $20s), things will begin to change.

Keep in mind that currency indices measure paper currencies against each other. The Euro has appreciated in dollar terms, yes, but has been falling in terms of gold. As an analogy, all the ships are taking on water, some just slower than the others due to the tremendous creation of money and credit worldwide, at double digit rates. Even the venerable "Swissy" (Swiss Franc), perhaps the top performing paper currency in the world, is beginning to spring some leaks in the face of gold (see charts below).

Despite the unrelenting appreciation of the metal since 2001, only the populations in the Middle-East and Asia have widely taken notice. As far as the West goes, those populations simply refuse to give up thinking in terms of pieces of paper posing as stores of value. As an example of this myopia, this month we saw media reports of top model Gisele insisting upon payment in Euros and "rapster" Jay-Z in a music video flashing a wad of 500 Euro bills. Central bankers are international. They care not which of their pieces of paper you prefer. What about gold? As far as we know, they have not yet succeeded in turning lead into gold, but what they have done is better as they pass off notes which pose as money. As the scheme began to grow cracks in the late 1990's with the LTCM and Russian debt default etc., astute market observers discovered admissions by the FED, as revealed in their FOMC minutes, of selling (or leasing) gold to suppress its price. In addition, despite gold's appreciation and recent run-up, you won't hear CNBC, the 24-hour Wall Street infomercial, talking much about gold, much less the coming gold investment wave which will dwarf that of the dot.com mania.

Financial professionals and money managers have been ignoring the clear signs of a secular bull trend in gold which has been in play for over the past five years. Now that price action is screaming a long term buy (and maybe a few clients are beginning to ask some questions), they will soon no longer be able to stubbornly adhere to their professional indoctrination. A Keynesian economic indoctrination which has also been enforced by the extremely short timeframe that is a few decades of observation of an economy in motion (gold's slumber lasted for almost half a lifetime). So now the usual recommendations are being touted. Five to ten-percent allocation into precious metals. Now we can all sleep at night as we allocate 90 to 95% of our wealth in currencies which are being multiplied by governments and their central bank paymasters struggle to keep the system from imploding.

Funny money, limited corporate liabilty, the off-loading of risk into the financial system by way of non-transparent exotic financial instuments and the myriad bailouts of the past half-century have increased the moral hazard to the degree of threatening the entire world financial system. In times past, no financial entity lent real money (gold), without carefully considering the capabilities of the borrower. But back then, investment capital was derived from savings and interest rates were determined by the quantity of savings available.

I tend to believe that the behind the scenes planners know very well what they are doing as we stare at more consolidation into currency blocks and an eventual world central bank. It is a replay of the orchestrated bank panics of the early twentieth-century on a worldwide scale. This time, they used hedge fund managers and mortgage bankers, whom I must assume have very short memories or perhaps shave once a week. Did the gray hairs really believe that real estate appreciation (ignited by the FED lowering rates in 2001) was sustainable? That a couple earning $70,000 could afford a $450,000 McMansion making payments dependent upon temporary teaser or adjustable mortgage rates? Why did former Federal Reserve Chairman Sir Alan Greenspan encourage borrowers to buy homes using ARMs (adjustable rate mortgages) in the face of rising interest rates?

The last orchestrated bank panics of the late 19th and early 20th centuries led to the creation of the Federal Reserve (which was devised in secret, since back then, people were extremely suspicious of the "money trust"). Sixteen years later the United States was hit with a major economic disaster, the Great Depression. The Great Depression consolidated even more power for the banking cartel, as state chartered banking was destroyed (as intended) and gold was officially demonetized, domestically. Forty-two years later, gold was demonetized on a worldwide scale and currencies have floated ever since without the discipline which gold created for balanced trade (this was the real reason for the energy crisis of the early 70s). Did the private banking cartel that is the Federal Reserve create the economic stability it promised? Even if you hold on to your wallet, the big boys are going to bail themselves out at your expense without having to pull out a single note from it. They'll just have the value of each adjusted so that you pay your fair share, once again, for their reckless profilgacy.

Below are three month charts of Euros, Canadian Dollars, Swiss Francs and the US dollar in terms of gold.






































Confused about the mortgage lending problems and the growing financial panic? This is bigger than you can imagine and it involves more than just mortgage lending. See the video below for a quick explanation of a topic which could use a little humor:

AN "INVESTMENT BANKER" EXPLAINS THE SUBPRIME MORTGAGE MELTDOWN

Why Voting is a Waste of Time

"The table is tilted folks, the game is rigged..." George Carlin

With the national elections a little more than a year away, there's talk among a growing number of dissatisfied members of the 'body politic' that this time, if they can get their candidate in the Oval Office (Congressman Ron Paul), then somehow we will have effective change and bring back America to its original constitutional political structure. Would it be fair to characterize such hopes of removing bad apples from a hopelessly corrupt system as naive?

There are multiple layers which have been at work for numerous decades in assuring a predetermined outcome in line with the desires of the powers which handle the political process behind the scenes. These layers include "lies of omission" or exclusion of a candidate or candidates which voters may find attractive by the controlled national media, outright voter fraud which has also been irrefutably and recently evidenced, (see also the HBO Special documentary: "HACKING DEMOCRACY") and the historical evidence which suggests that presidents are handled by powers well above their pay grade.

The Republicratic Party?

Georgetown University professor and CFR insider Carroll Quigley, mentor to former President Bill Clinton, had this to say in his book, Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time

"The National parties and their presidential candidates, with the Eastern Establishment assiduously fostering the process behind the scenes, moved closer together and nearly met in the center with almost identical candidates and platforms, although the process was concealed as much as possible, by the revival of obsolescent or meaningless war cries and slogans (often going back to the Civil War). … The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. … Either party in office becomes in time corrupt, tired, unenterprising, and vigorless. Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies." Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time (New York: Macmillan, 1966), pp. 1247-1248.

"Fostering the process behind the scenes?" Could it be true that key politicians are heavily compromised and controlled play-actors? Is it deeper than mere lobbying by powerful corporate interests? Judging from the comments of Carroll Quigley above, it would seem doubtful that a random collection of candidates elected to office could have steered policy which have gotten us to the point of a "two-party" system which is in essence, two arms of the same monster. If so, then blaming Bush or whomever is in office for whatever, is an exercise in futility (and perhaps controlled disinformation from various gatekeeper organizations and individuals), as politicans are also expendable punching bags in a system which has done everything in its power to ensure its own survival.

Consenting to be Ruled by the Majority and Politicians Acting on Your Behalf

Public advertizing blitzes to encourage voter participation in elections are simply attempts at continuing the illusion that 'the people' actually have a say beyond a cosmetic influence in directing the future of the country and to factor in mass approval of 'the system' as well as complicity in the actions of political representatives on 'the people's behalf.' What does it mean when an Australian citizen is fined $35 for not casting his or her vote? Is the mere act of voting consenting to be ruled by the majority? Did the citizens of Argentina give their consent for the president of that nation to take on huge loans from the parasitic International Monetary Fund only to be coerced into restucturing and surrendering portions of the nation's assets, devaluing the currency and increasing taxes, by the act of voting? I would tend to agree that the best way for a disenfranchised population to send a message would be to boycott elections. Tumble weeds and the sounds of crickets at all polling places would create the necessary discomfort for the leviathan in Washington D.C., since 'we the people' would refuse to participate in a rigged game. How much longer will will be laughed at by the black limousine crowd on the Potomac? How many people just don't want to "get it?"

Presidential Candidate Paul

Even if candidate for president Ron Paul were to overcome the voting machine fraud and got himself elected would he be able to make a difference? Could he succeed in his stated desire to re-empower the individual; by working to reinstate a constitutional system? The lies of omission or the Orwellian dumping of news or information down the memory hole as with the "CNBC Vanishing Poll" is one example of many which points to one method of ensuring that the fewest know about Congressman Paul's campaign. Just ask co-workers, friends, family and acquaintances, or a passer-by, if he or she knows of presidential candidate Ron Paul. But for Paul to have a snowball's chance in hell, despite evidence of media supression, several miraculous events would have to occur simultaneously. First, we'd have to hope that a very large portion of the American public would actually take a good look at the candidates for office and that they would somehow favor Paul despite their indoctrinated socialist mindset, financial dependence upon the system and lack of understanding of how a sustainable monetary system operates thanks to tax-exempt Foundation edited school textbooks. Then, we'd have to hope that there would be a very large and sizable majority in key states who would cast their vote for Paul and hope that the 'will of the people' would somehow be fully expressed despite evidence of manipulated computerized voting software. Even if he overcomes that hurdle and becomes President, Paul, who has called for the elimination of the IRS and the Federal Reserve, would be up against powers that very few can actually begin to comprehend. These two private entities are one arm of a global octopus which would not go out without a bang. Are Presidents handled by powers in the shadows who also control all significant media outlets?

Out of the Blue 'Lone Gunmen?'

As past is often prologue, Paul's success at being elected would pose a threat to the concentrated pockets of power. Indeed, his well being would be in question. A study of 'lone gunmen' assassins is a very interesting one indeed. There are incredible facts that can be gleaned from the assassination attempts and assassinations of past political figures. There was the attempted assassination of President Andrew Jackson by Richard Lawrence (both his pistols failed to fire), who admitted that he was sent by banking interests to do the job. Then there was John Wilkes Booth, and his co-conspirator John Surrat who was a harbored fugitive in his Vatican employment as a Swiss Guard despite US government protests subsequent to the Lincoln assassination. See also free e-book (published in 1924): The Suppressed Truth about the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Skipping over interesting facts surrounding the Garfield and McKinley assassinations (for the sake of brevity), we fast forward 100 years to the John F. Kennedy assassination. Just recently the son of the late CIA executive officer and covert operative, E. Howard Hunt, is making available the detailed death bed recordings of his father's first hand account regarding the conspiracy surrounding the assassination of JFK. Hmmm....interesting how the establishment media didn't pick that story up. Yes, it seems that this was also most likely a conspiracy, one of the most often used words in the judicial system. Also, please take a look at the association of Neil Bush (brother of President G. W. Bush) to the family of John Hinkley, the would be assassin of President Ronald Reagan---see: The Bush-Hinckley connection.

Damned if You Do, Damned if You Don't

"That a man is free to abandon the benefits and throw off the burdens of citizenship, may indeed be inferred from the admissions of existing authorities and of current opinion. Unprepared as they probably are for so extreme a doctrine as the one here maintained, the radicals of our day yet unwittingly profess their belief in a maxim which obviously embodies this doctrine. Do we not continually hear them quote Blackstone's assertion that "no subject of England can be constrained to pay any aids or taxes even for the defence of the realm or the support of government, but such as are imposed by his own consent, or that of his representative in parliament?" And what does this mean? It means, say they, that every man should have a vote. True: but it means much more. If there is any sense in words it is a distinct enunciation of the very right now contended for. In affirming that a man may not be taxed unless he has directly or indirectly given his consent, it affirms that he may refuse to be so taxed; and to refuse to be taxed, is to cut all connection with the state. Perhaps it will be said that this consent is not a specific, but a general one, and that the citizen is understood to have assented to every thing his representative may do, when he voted for him. But suppose he did not vote for him; and on the contrary did all in his power to get elected some one holding opposite views — what them? The reply will probably be that, by taking part in such an election, he tacitly agreed to abide by the decision of the majority. And how if he did not vote at all? Why then he cannot justly complain of any tax, seeing that he made no protest against its imposition. So, curiously enough, it seems that he gave his consent in whatever way he acted — whether he said yes, whether he said no, or whether he remained neuter! A rather awkward doctrine this. Here stands an unfortunate citizen who is asked if he will pay money for a certain proffered advantage; and whether he employs the only means of expressing his refusal or does not employ it, we are told that he practically agrees; if only the number of others who agree is greater than the number of those who dissent. And thus we are introduced to the novel principle that A's consent to a thing is not determined by what A says, but by what B may happen to say!"

Officially, Is the Evidence Lacking Which Ties Osama bin Laden to the Attacks of 9/11?

Despite the video of what is purported to be Osama bin Laden admitting his involvement with the 9/11 attacks, it would seem that the Department of Justice either does not believe him, they do could not verify the authenticity of the bin Laden video, or perhaps they just need more evidence to indict.


If that be the case, than why does the national MOCKINGBIRD press keep naming bin-Laden as being a responsible party for the attacks of 9/11?

Here's one local news station which asked the question, "Why does the FBI's most wanted poster of bin-Laden not specifically contain 9/11 as one of the charges?

'Democracy'; From Political Concept to Propaganda Tool

The word 'democracy,' is today a valuable tool, an idea used to justify foreign ventures and world wars to; "make the world safe for democracy." A word which is often interchangeably used with the word "freedom," when we are told that we are so, especially when legislation or an executive order is introduced to take more of it from a fearful and unquestioning public. More recently, we saw the buzz word being thrown around to justify overthrowing yet another dictator, Saddam Hussein. A dictator originally put in place by the Fortune 500 mercenary organization, the CIA.

"....if you were to ask the average American if he or she finds it possible Saddam Hussein was groomed, financed, and supported by the CIA beginning with president John F. Kennedy -- who signed off on plan to overthrow the government of Iraq in 1963 -- chances are they wouldn't believe it. After all, we're the good guys, we do good in the world -- and that's why we're now attempting to track down Hussein and bring him to justice." Saddam Hussein: Taking Out the CIA's Trash

Once the "other reason" was deemed no longer possible to justify the second Iraqi great adventure, "democracy" became the word of choice, once again. I guess it made more sense than blurting out, "it's for the children."

Countless Americans have been psychologically damaged, maimed, and have died, as well as many more who were (and still are) duped, to achieve this goal, as stated for them. Democracy, which is certainly used in a positive sense in speech, debate or argument, when embedded in propaganda, is often used to obtain certain results such as war, or crowd kill operations of conscripted and voluntary combatants who either believe in their own home grown justifications, or merely fight to repel a foreign invader. Unfortunately, the destruction of civilian populations in the process has been more often than not, deliberate.

Since most Americans alive today have little idea why the United States decided to involve itself in the latter stages of World War I, we can direct our attention to the reasons used to get the United States into World War II. US involvement in this war was made easy by the use of the boogey-man fear tactic propaganda perpetrated upon the population as a means of fear-based mind control.

Who could argue that Hitler didn't need a military take-down to "make the world safe for democracy?" Who knows what a Germany under Hitler would have been capable of over time? But that's not the question. Indeed, but what about Hitler's origins? Are we to assume that Hitler and his gang naturally sprang up from obscurity thanks to early support and donations from the German citizenry and domestic grass roots organizations? The evidence would suggest otherwise as Hitler's climb to power was anything but a domestic affair.

"A clique of U.S. industrialists is hell-bent to bring a fascist state to supplant our democratic government and is working closely with the fascist regime in Germany and Italy. I have had plenty of opportunity in my post in Berlin to witness how close some of our American ruling families are to the Nazi regime. They extended aid to help Fascism occupy the seat of power, and they are helping to keep it there." William E. Dodd U.S. Ambassador to Germany 1937

I'll leave it to you to enter down that rabbit hole, should you wish to do so, with the following:

Taking a look at the last 100 years, it is apparent that the brilliant idea of having a war always originates from the top down. A large part of pre-war preparation efforts is scaring the bejesus out of the population. Notwithstanding the profit motive of the debt creation machine that is war, perpetual states of danger and fear percieved by the public do a fine job of justifying the publics' surrender of their freedom for the sake of security. A surrender of control to the administrators (and their handlers) of so called government.

"The myth that the United States is a democracy is probably a far stronger 'reality' in the minds of Americans than the actual reality that it is a tightly controlled secret oligarchy with a republican front. But in this case, which is the greater real reality? The American believes his myth enough that he dies for it. He fights the "war to end all wars" and then the "war to save the world FOR DEMOCRACY" (to quote some popular world war slogans). In the American mind, he achieves victory even though he has fought and died for a myth. And even when the mythical goals he fought for aren't even achieved, he believes he has achieved a victory." Fritz Springmeier

So, is there ever any justification for aggression against enemies foreign. Personally, I'll take a warrior's advice any day before politicians who make certain to keep their children safe from the wars that he or she sponsors.

Two time Medal of Honor recipient, General Smedly Butler, USMC:

I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket. General Smedly Butler, USMC

'Democracy' and the (non) NGO 'Tools'

As an example of how the term "democracy" is also a propandistic tool often engaged to provide cover for meddling clandestine operations, is the existence of Non-governmental Organizations. Entities Americans do not pay much attention to. A bit of fact checking beyond the MOCKINGBIRD national press reveals how, in one example, the National Endowment for Democracy (Bush's speech at NED, November 2003), a think tank which supposedly has no conflicts of interest and wants nothing better than to empower "the people," is a Non-Government Organization (NGO), which is engaged in doing the exact opposite.

How many Americans could identify the National Endowment for Democracy? An organization which often does exactly the opposite of what its name implies. The NED was set up in the early 1980s under President Reagan in the wake of all the negative revelations about the CIA in the second half of the 1970s. The latter was a remarkable period. Spurred by Watergate-the Church Committee of the Senate, the Pike Committee of the House and the Rockefeller Commission, created by the president, were all busy investigating the CIA. Seemingly every other day there was a new headline about the discovery of some awful thing, even criminal conduct, the CIA had been mixed up in for years. The Agency was getting an exceedingly bad name, and it was causing the powers-that-be much embarrassment.

It was a masterpiece. Of politics, of public relations and of cynicism. Thus it was that in 1983, the National Endowment for Democracy was set up to "support democratic institutions throughout the world through private, nongovernmental efforts". Notice the "nongovernmental"-part of the image, part of the myth. In actuality, virtually every penny of its funding comes from the federal government, as is clearly indicated in the financial statement in each issue of its annual report. NED likes to refer to itself as an NGO (non-governmental organization) because this helps to maintain a certain credibility abroad that an official US government agency might not have. But NGO is the wrong category. NED is a GO.

Allen Weinstein, who helped draft the legislation establishing NED, was quite candid when he said in 1991: "A lot of what we do today was done covertly 25 years ago by the CIA." In effect, the CIA has been laundering money through NED.

Funds contributed by NED even included campaign money to a former CIA contract agent, Panama's Manuel Noriega, for a presidential candidate that he backed:

Because of a controversy in 1984-when NED funds were used to aid a Panamanian presidential candidate backed by Manuel Noriega and the CIA-Congress enacted a law prohibiting the use of NED funds "to finance the campaigns of candidates for public office." But the ways to circumvent the spirit of such a prohibition are not difficult to come up with; as with American elections, there's "hard money" and there's "soft money".

"Empowering" the people:

NED successfully manipulated elections in Nicaragua in 1990 and Mongolia in 1996 and helped to overthrow democratically elected governments in Bulgaria in 1990 and Albania in 1991 and 1992. In Haiti in the late l990s, NED was busy working on behalf of right wing groups who were united in their opposition to former president Jean-Bertrand Aristide and his progressive ideology. NED has made its weight felt in the electoral-political process in numerous other countries.

US AID is another one of these "benevolent NGO" organizations (on the surface) with much information to the contrary, regarding uninvited meddling in the national affairs of foreign nations. Even the online dynamic encyclopaedia, WIKIPEDIA, recently revealed as having been tampered with by intelligence agencies, contract agents, FBI and a variety of other government agencies, confirms these allegations and discusses several other NGOs with alleged involvement in clandestine destabilization activities worldwide. There are also complaints from a Venezuelan perspective of how destabilization and overthrow of the current government of Venezuela has been ongoing. Such an allegation could be dismissed as biased, but the evidence from other sources would suggest otherwise to any critical thinking upright walking biped.

So what is the real purpose and motivation for the genesis and funding of these "nice" organizations with no religious affiliations? Are we to believe that there is no control or profit motive somewhere, less detectable downstream?

I'm done buy'in it.

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.

The Tragic Epiphany of Pat Tillman

Pat Daniel Tillman, a rookie NFL player, was destined for great things. Inspired by a self-imposed patriotic duty, Tillman decided to forego a $3.6 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals to enlisted in the US Army less than one year after the September 11 event. The problem for Pat Tillman, was that he was initially a useful political asset who eventually decided to place himself on the liability side of the propaganda balance sheet. His actions broke the cardinal rule of threatening tremendous political damage to high level government officials and their policies before seeking the protections inherent in aggressively going public. It was indeed a very dangerous act, the act of potentially awakening the logic centers of multitudes of made-in-China-flag waving zombies back home.

Tillman was suffering withdrawals due to a loss of his illusions. Maybe we could call it "delusions;"....the naive and unquestioning child-like "patriotism" which, hopefully, a shrinking majority of Americans continue to suffer to this day. It is the reason for the current mess in the middle-east. The reality which dawned on Pat Tillman, is the same reality realized by an unfortunately small minority of Americans who care to do their true patriotic duty of questioning inquiry and research into history and current events beyond the pseudo-reality presented by the MOCKINGBIRD national press. Tillman's epiphany created enough anger within him that he could not control his passion. Tillman didn't have a problem with the situation in Afghanistan, where he was eventually shipped off to after his tour in Iraq, as he believed terrorists there had to be routed...the reason why he enlisted after 9/11. But Iraq was a different story for him.

"He told fellow Rangers fighting in Iraq that the war was so 'fucking illegal.'" Who Killed Pat Tillman?

Pat Tillman was too intelligent to allow full-blown cognitive dissonance and denial to maintain its grip on his mind. The brand of government criminality that we are witness to today, has been business as usual for hundreds of years. Nothing new, just more 'in-your-face' right now made possible by years of dumbing-down. It has, in better days, been kept more in check by healthy distrust of a thinking citizenry, unlike the current contingent of FOX NEWS addicted citizen-automatons. Tillman was a "fiercely independent thinker," and his uncontrolled passion may have been his own undoing. If Tillman had been an unknown enlistee, he might have eventually been disciplined to the point of being brought up on certain UCMJ charges, if he had not choosen his words carefully. But for Pat Tillman, ultimately providing such a legal forum for his grievances would have been unthinkable to the information manipulators.

"Interviews also show a side of Pat Tillman not widely known — a fiercely independent thinker who enlisted, fought and died in service to his country yet was critical of President Bush and opposed the war in Iraq, where he served a tour of duty."

Tillman is alleged to have suffered multiple .223 (5.65mm) rounds to the forehead fired at no more than ten yards. If the allegations of intentional fratricide are true, this would be quite an arrogant hit as the ammunition of choice for the local insurgency is certainly not NATO M-16 ammunition. A hit by mercenary "sheep dipped" soldiers?

"The doctors _ whose names were blacked out _ said that the bullet holes were so close together that it appeared the Army Ranger was cut down by an M-16 fired from a mere 10 yards or so away." New Details on Tillman's Death

Will the soldiers, US military officials, and medical pathologist(s) who may have first hand knowledge of this alleged conspiracy stay quiet?

"One day after his death, someone burned his body armor. Two days later, someone burned his uniform" Who Killed Pat Tillman?

If there's more to this than the official story, they'd better begin to separate themselves from the cover-up pronto, because this kind of shit flies in the face of even the simplest minded "mom and apple pie"-----patriotism, which hopefully may become more difficult to manage much further beyond this point. Equating patriotism with no-questions-asked support of every violent government foreign policy, despite conflict with the national constitution and international law, is a faulty illusion resultant from intellectual laziness of the population. Unfortunately, even as this old playbook has been used many times before, people today seem to require that their generation personally suffer what previous generations have suffered, before becoming convinced themselves (once again) that they've been had. Maybe, if Vietnam were the nation accused of possessing WMDs this time around instead of Iraq, the majority of Americans might have hesitated, at least for a few seconds, before screaming for war at their television screens from the comfort of
