Globalism, Violent Oppression and Electronic Warfare: 2 + 2 = 5


mind
It is within the nature of mankind for a disproportionately small percentage of men to attempt to exert control over the greater multidinous horde.  The primary method of control is achieved through violent oppression.
Violence is required as most people will not willingly submit to control by others, be it few or many.  For violence to be perpetrated, weapons are required.  Our history as a species can be defined, in large measure, by the vehicles of violence (weapons) employed at the point in history being addressed.
When rocks were all that was to be had in way of potential weapons, we secured them to the end of stout sticks and bashed each other’s skulls in.   When metal forming technology manifested in our species, we beat the metal thin, sharpened the edge, and proceeded to hack and whack the limbs and heads from our enemies.   Of course when gunpowder and guns were created, a prodigious wave of violence was unleashed that remains unabated to this very minute.
Even as you read this piece, a person is killed by armed conflict every one hundred seconds, so read fast! Lives depend on it man! [1]. Firearms and their steroidal offspring; bombs, canons, missiles, bazookas and such sufficed for centuries as a perfectly efficient way of meting death.  These deaths were unavoidable as there existed no recourse to armed conflict and brute force resolution.  If control is the goal, then guns were the way to see that happen.  It’s been this way for quite a few hundreds of years.
There are heads of state throughout history that seem to have no other goal than to kill their fellow human beings.  These psychopathic individuals are well known.   What makes them tick is another subject altogether, and is addressed in great detail by Andrew M. Lobaczewski’s definitive treatise on the subject, “Political Ponerology- a Science on the Nature of Evil Adjusted for Political Purposes” [2].
However, not all despots energetically seek to kill their country’s citizens, but do so rather as a consequence of objection to their designs.  For the most part though, nefarious rulers, dictators, khans, kings, emperors, sultans, presidents and a host of other titled leaders primarily seek to control a country, region or continent- both the people in it and the resources in, on and under the land.
In most cases the primary objective of a tyrannical government is to exercise absolute control over the conquered and/or subjugated populace, with the most telling benefit being the subsequent revenue stream generated by lop-sided trade agreements and myriad forms of taxes imposed on businesses and individuals.  Investigate the Federal Reserve, the populace debt collateral and income taxes. [3]
It takes a true psychopath to want to kill the golden goose…us!  Corpses don’t pay taxes, after all.  Unfortunately, if humanity is a carriage, then the man driving with the whip is content to lighten the carriage’s load to the tune of a 93% reduction, from seven billion people to five hundred million.The ‘man with the whip’ is an allegorical agglomeration of the* 1/1000thof the 1%; the real wealth here on earth. (That’s still a lot of people.
There are seven billion people on earth. Do the math. Just kidding…that’s still seven thousand people.)The next time you flip to TNT (Turner Network Television) remember Ted Turner’s words [3.5], “A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal.”  One might have a hunch all those near and dear to him won’t be in his wished upon reduction group- but we are.  Ted Turner wants us dead….how charming.Terrifyingly, he is not alone in his assessment.This conviction is shared by other immensely powerful people in that rarified percentile.[4]
Before the advent of harnessed electricity, invasions and conquering was accomplished through brute force, accompanied by the old fashionedbrick and mortar weapons of war we’ve come to know and loathe.  This method of war is going the way of the Dodo.  Human ingenuity andthe diligent efforts of mad scientists (can you call people who spend their days devising ever more efficient ways to kill their fellow men anything but mad?) have produced an entirely new class of weapons to unleash on peaceful, protesting people everywhere.  Enter electronic warfare.
There are electromagnetic weapons currently being deployed against various citizens of the world.  We know them as microwave cannons, or directed energy beams.  They’ve been around for decades
At Greenham Common in England, a 30,000 strong group of women camping outside an army base in protest to the deployment of nuclear-tipped US cruise missiles learned first-hand about these electromagnetic weapons.[5]“One day in the summer of 1984, more than 2,000 British troops suddenly pulled back, leaving the fence unguarded. Peace mom Kim Besley recalls that as curious women approached the gate, they started experiencing odd health effects: swollen tongues, changed heartbeats, immobility, feelings of terror, and pains in the upper body. Besley found her 30-year-old daughter too ill to stand.
Other symptoms typical of electromagnetic exposure included skin burns, severe headaches, drowsiness, post-menopausal menstrual bleeding and menstruation at abnormal times”. Even earlier, in 1962 Moscow, US embassy staff experienced similar symptoms as the result of directed weak pulse microwaves emanating from Soviet intelligence agencies, whilst being monitored by interested CIA operatives.  This is reported to have been part of Project Phoenix, an operation within the larger US government program SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) [5], [6].
The electronic warfare (EW) arsenal is not limited to microwave and directed energy beams.  On our own soil, used by our own government against peaceful protestors, sound cannons were deployed to disperse crowds at the Occupy Wall Street movement in November, 2011. [7] The manufacturer [8] insists it is a communication device.
They claim the “Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD)provides military personnel with a powerful, penetrating warning tone that can be followed by clear voice broadcasts in host nation languages to warn and shape the behavior of potential threats.” (Emphasis added)  The specs indicate the LRAD employs directed sound technology to move the security engagement envelope from 50 meters (164 feet), without LRAD, to in excess of 3000 meters (1.86 miles), with LRAD, by emitting a directed, focused 110db sound that causes nausea, headaches, and yes, hearing loss.  It has been compared to listening to a power saw at close range. Its ability to disperse a crowd has been proven publicly, courtesy of the crowd at Occupy Wall Street, itself an elite sponsored controlled opposition initiative.
The globalists will go to any lengths to keep the public’s wrath focused on anyone or anything but the central banking apparatus; the wellspring of their power, the means by which they enslave nations and place unborn generations in debt.  In this instance, they threw the Wall Street banksters under the bus.  Those useless, money grubbing, soul selling Wall Street louts are fodder for the globalist’s furnace, and they don’t even know it.  Sad.  One can only hope they awaken.  Indeed, they will when the party grinds to a halt and UN blue helmets are stationed at the corner of Wall Street and Nassau.
These examples serve to illustrate there are a wide range of electronic weapons at the disposal of those that would do us harm, and these mentioned are only the ones we know about.  It’s been well established that military science is decades ahead of industrial science.  This holds true in weaponry as well as the medical, energy and physics fields.  Further, the above examples highlight the fact that a weapon does not necessarily have to kill to be effective.
One thing to be sure of- if there is a way to improve something, someone will be busy trying to do just that.  Electronic Weapons are of course constantly being tested and improved upon.  Given the vast array of data and potential applications residing in such an enormous field of science, the function of the device itself can be altered to a desired effect.  The electronic weaponry referenced above is a miner’spickaxe to the jewelers ball peen found in mood modifying frequency weapons in evidence today.   In the good old days of maces and archers, an enemy’s back could be broken, but there was no way to break the mind.
If the mind itself could be conditioned to accept subjugation and defeat, then half the battle is done ‘ere the first arrow’s fletched.  We have arrived at that very point in our weaponry evolution.   While not quoting Sun Tzu directly, a safe distillation of his philosophy as regards war would be that the greatest victory is that in which no fighting takes place- the globalists do study the masters.  This is their goal; to get us, the useless eaters (as they have termed us), to accede to their domination with nary a peep.  How do they accomplish such a feat?  The answer to that can be found in Orwell’s 1984.
O’Brien wanted Winston Smith to believe that 2 + 2 = 5.  It was not enough for Winston to say it- he had to believe it.  And so the globalists want the same out of us.  They want us to believe that psychotropic pharmaceuticals are the key to happiness and chemtrails are going to save us from global warming, that GMO corn is the answer to world poverty. Would we fight against that which we believe to be good and true?
Let’s call this “EW-Second Generation”.
This new generation is a hellish union of neuroscience and electronic weaponry, spawning a new method of mind control O’Brien would be impressed with-psychotronic weapons.  In the Iraq war, US forces deployed innocuous sounding ‘Poppers’ throughout Baghdad.   These two-foot high domes placed strategically in and around Baghdad emitted invisible, damaging electromagnetic frequency  beams across the entire electromagnetic spectrum [9]; the end goal and effective result being to selectively alter moods, behavior and bodily process [5].
They were very effective on Iraqi citizens, but given the indiscriminate nature of the weapon itself, the poppers also affected US forces.  Suicides, desertions and episodes of homicidal rage manifested on both sides of the conflict.  That military program is a boondoggle in its own right, butat the end of the day, it’s just another disastrous, fatal program gone wrong in the US government.  Other than the personal tragedy of lost lives, this is barely newsworthy, and sadly, more the norm than not.
The physical science behind psychotronic weapons (think Matt Damon’s Will Hunting scribbling insanely complex equations on an oversized blackboard) is far beyond the average intellect, this one included.  Therefore, a need exists to simplify.  Any high school biology student knows that the human body is a self-contained electrical unit.  The movie The Matrix, for all its fantastical imaginations, illustrated clearly and accurately that we run on electrical impulses.  Where there is electricity, there is an electromagnetic frequency being generated.  What photosynthesis is to plant leaves, so is frequency generation to electricity- one cannot exist without the other.
Our brain is a self-contained multi-frequency processor, and like most things on this planet, can be altered by design. [11] “The brain is a computer, and like a computer it has a clock frequency that all thoughts, your existence, are centered around. This is a little basic because your brain in reality has multiple simultaneous clock frequencies which interact with each other and serve different purposes for biological function, whereas a microprocessor normally has only one central clock that everything in it synchronizes with.
For example, your visual cortex may process at a different frequency than the section of your brain which regulates your heart beat. Feelings and thoughts will run at another frequency. Because your brain is an ultra-parallel computer, it can accomplish a lot while using frequencies that are far lower than would be practical in a microprocessor and these frequencies are in the ELF (extended low frequency) range.  The fact that your brain operates on frequencies leaves it susceptible to manipulation via electronic means. Since different moods are reflected by different frequencies, it is possible to electronically force people to be relaxed when they should be angry, laugh when they should be appalled, and give loyalty when they should rebel.”
There is no longer a need, as in The Manchurian Candidate, to strap a subject into a chair and bombard the recipient with images and disorienting drugs until their minds are a base soup waiting on spice.  The EW weapons unleashed upon us on a daily basis are far more subtle.  The mind, it is well known, operates on a conscious and sub-conscious level. The conscious mind sees and hears at one level; it operates on its own frequency.  The sub-conscious mind operates at a different frequency, therefore ‘seeing’ images that our conscious mind doesn’t.  This is not lost upon the globalists.
One constant with them is that if an opportunity presents itself enabling them to exploit and control people, they will do all in their considerable power to turn whatever it is into a device or operation for just that purpose.  Endeavors in EW began decades ago.  Sometimes the globalists reveal more than they should. (But then warning us of what is to come is their M.O.  It’s key in their ability to carry the burden of their sins.  Those globalists do the darndest things!). In the early 70’s, globalist brainiac strategist Zbigniew Brzezinski summed up their intentions quite candidly[10],
“In the technotronic society the trend would seem to be towards the aggregation of the individual support of millions of uncoordinated citizens, easily within the reach [Insert-read ‘television’] of magnetic and attractive personalities effectively exploiting the latest communications techniques to manipulate emotions and control reason”.
The way to ‘send’ or implant a thought is to insert it into a television show at a speed far greater than the conscious mind can record, but not too fast for the subconscious mind.  In the beginning, messages were inserted at 1/25th of a second.  The machine capable of this was called a tachistoscope.  These(suggestive mind control) subliminal insertion frames were discovered and made public.
A flurry of front page headlines and congressional laws were passed and the matter went bye-bye.Regards the discoverer of the shenanigans,[11]
“For a large consideration and a new Mercedes convertible, the aggrieved scientist who discovered the technique by accident, agreed to a cover story that the tachistoscope was only used for one experimental film run, involving subliminal prompts to buy Coke and popcorn, but was not terrible successful. The Mercedes convertible [gifted to him for his complicity] was involved in a high speed accident and fireball just two months later. There were no survivors.”
Caught red handed, it was back to the drawing board.[11] “Covert development proceeded along two parallel but independent tracks, with the first focusing on blending ‘low light images’ into an existing film or commercial. This was fast, and it was also a master stroke in its own right. The ‘low light’ system was ready for trials in less than six months, and the effects were startling.  Essentially, while the conscious mind was viewing and inwardly digesting the main film or commercial content, the subconscious mind was picking up the low light subliminal messages, which fell just below the threshold of normal vision.
Where the older tachistoscope was jerky and only partly efficient, the new ‘low light’ system proved to be a control revolution. The low light images were a complete ‘film within a film’ running at normal speed, and thus able to “properly educate” those citizens not entirely in accord with One World Government views.  The critical test was whether or not the ‘low light’ technique could be uncovered if a copy of the film fell into the wrong hands. Exhaustive trials proved that it could not. Despite the most sophisticated ultraviolet analysis known to man, the embedded low light images could not be detected at all, because they were comprised of exactly the same color spectrum as the film itself. So, low light was dramatically effective, relatively cheap to engineer, and easy to transport and use without fear of security breaches…. This low light system is still in use today, and is still dramatically effective.”
If we can be led to believe that 2 + 2 = 5, without our quite being aware of it, then the majority masses will indeed, for example, raise little fuss over the poisonous chemtrails hosing our atmosphere 24/7.  (Doh! It happens now and where is the real outcry? YouTube? Right…. Something’s worrrkiiinnng!).  So, knowing this is happening and that we have no control over avoiding it, only one option presents itself, and is best conveyed by John Denver. [12] “Blow up your TV, throw away your paper, go to the country, build you a home.  Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches, try and find Jesus on your own.”[10] Globalists Intentions Made Clear- Zbigniew Brzezinski- Globalist Front Man, Counselor to World Leaders
“….nation state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force: International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation-state.”

Amanda Bynes: Another Product of Entertainment Industry Mind Control?

May 5th, 2013 |http://vigilantcitizen.com/latestnews/what-is-happening-to-amanda-bynes/

sp_amanda_bynes_nt_130502_wblog
Amanda Bynes’ metamorphosis from a promising child star to a bizarre woman with worrying behavior is yet another example of how the MK-Ultra entertainment industry messes up the minds of those who grow up within it. While most media sources cite “drugs” or “mental problem” as causes of her erratic behavior, these are only symptoms of the true issue here: Bynes is yet another former child star going through a MK programming meltdown.
Bynes began her acting career at the age of ten and quickly obtained her own show at Nickelodeon. From there, she followed the unfortunate pattern of going from a star admired by children to a “barely-legal” sex bomb to then turn into a bizarre tabloid celebrity with erratic behavior. Is that pattern familiar? Look at the paths taken by other products of Hollywood Mind Control such as Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan and see if you see similarities.
Like many other child stars, Bynes started as a beautiful, healthy looking girl with eyes that convey intelligence.
Like many other child stars, Bynes started as a beautiful, down to earth girl with eyes that convey intelligence (according to IMDB, she was a straight-A student).

When she reached legal age, mass media undressed her and told the world: "Hey we can now sell her as a sexual object!".
When she reached legal age, mass media undressed her and told the world: “Hey, she is not minor anymore! It is now safe to sexualize her!”. How many child stars went through that process? How many lead great and healthy lives afterwards? Not many.

This "Got Milk" is about "metamorphisis" but the metamorphosis Bynes' went through in the years following that were definitely not due to milk but to the industry Monarch Mind Control (as represented by the butterfly on her nose) that apparently traumatized and destablizied her.
This “Got Milk” ad is about “metamorphosis”. However, the metamorphosis Bynes’ went through in the years following that ad were definitely not due to drinking milk but to Monarch Mind Control. Maybe that is why there’s a butterfly on her nose.
Now, at age 27, Bynes looks and acts extremely different, as if she was thoroughly traumatized and “re-programmed” in the past years. Was it Monarch Mind Control? When approaching the age of 30, MK slaves often go through a meltdown – a result of the their minds and bodies not being able to cope with the intense trauma they are subjected to anymore (to learn more about Monarch Mind Control, read my article entitled Origins and Techniques of Monarch Mind Control).

Not unlike Britney Spears, Bynes was spotted acting strange in public places, wearing bizarre clothes and even shaving her hair. Here’s a video summing up her recent “meltdown”.
Since then, things got even weirder when as she began posting tweets and videos displaying increasingly worrying behavior. Her tweet requesting rapper Drake to “murder her vagina” confused many as her odd choice of words maybe revealed an unhealthy relation with her own sexuality.
This “selfie” video freaked out quite a few people as is not only indicative of someone that is “not well” – It almost looks as if it’s a MK programming glitch.
Not unlike other products of Sex Kitten programming, Bynes feels the need of getting people’s attention with her sexuality.
Recent "selfies" show a half-shaved head, increasingly revealing clothing and a disturbingly vacant eyes.
Recent “selfies” show Bynes with a half-shaved head (Britney Spears shaved her head during her meltdown), increasingly revealing clothing and a disturbingly vacant eyes.
In the past few days, things got even more worrying when publicist Jonathan Jaxson contacted the NYPD last week because Amanda told him “I don’t want to live anymore”.
“Amanda had called me and we had a private conversation, but it was clear to me that she was high on drugs. Then, she said that she didn’t want to live anymore. I took that as that she wanted to kill herself. I freaked out. I had heard stuff like this from Amanda before. But this time, I had a mental image of her in a bathtub, wanting to hurt herself. Then I saw a photo of her in her bathroom that she’d posted on Twitter. I freaked. I did not know what else to do. I thought consciously about it for a minute and decided to call the authorities. I thought, ‘I have to do something to save her’. When someone tells you they don’t want to live anymore, that in itself would provoke anyone who cares. I know that Amanda is a person crying out for help.
Thankfully though Amanda is alive, but she is still not good. Hopefully people and the media now understand that this is no longer a joke and she get the help she needs”.

While many people in media now perceive Bynes as some sort of running gag, her “antics” are becoming increasingly disturbing and worrisome. Her actions cannot simply be explained away with “drugs” – They are symptomatic of a deep-seated psychological process that thoroughly modified her, physically and mentally. It is said that “Eyes are the window to the soul”. Well, look at her eyes then and now. This is what years of industry Mind Control does to a soul.
From a child star, to sex bomb to loose canon, Amanda Bynes is going through a pattern that is constantly repeated in the entertainment industry. How come these starlets go through the exact same stages? It is because they went through the same “school”: Industry Mind Control.

Into Darkness

It begins with an explosion in a big city. Sound familiar?
Star Trek Into Darkness apparently starts with a terrorist attack in London.
Movie openings, film legacies, and violent incidents have gone hand in hand, of late.
Dark Knight opened July 23, 2008, in Belguim; Heath Ledger died January 22, 2009, in New York City; nursery attack (3 killed, 12 injured) occurred on January 23, 2009, allegedly by the Dendermonde Joker in Belguim.

Captain America opened July 22, 2011 in USA; Anders Behring Breivik on July 22, 2011, set off a car bomb in Oslo, shown above (killed 8, injured 209) and attacked youth camp on Utøya island, Norway (killed 69, injured 110).
Dark Knight Rises opened midnight July 20, 2012; James Holmes allegedly targeted Dark Knight Rises while dressed as Bane with Joker underneath (allegedly killed 12, allegedly injured 58), July 20, 2012, Aurora, Colorado, to Newtown, Connecticut, where on December 14, 2012, Adam Lanza killed his mother, then went to the Sandy Hook Elementary School and killed 20 children and 6 adult staff (total 27).
What have the major studios learned from these recent events? Don't open a blockbuster movie in 2013 on July 20, 21, 22, and 23.  This year, on the closest Fridays, you will note that Red 2 is due to open on July 19, and The Wolverine on July 26. These are not movies in the same darker mold as Man of Steel (June 14), The Lone Ranger (July 5), and Star Trek Into Darkness (May 17) this year.
Star Trek Into Darkness opens in Britain on May 9, 2013, and in the United States on May 17, 2013, the 12th film in the Star Trek franchise that was created about 50 years ago by Gene Roddenberry and led to six TV series.

And it opens with a boom (apparently - I haven't seen it and don't read or write spoilers).

Let us hope the only darkness is on the screen this time.
But let's not forget....

Boston Marathon Bombing - Three killed, 299 injured
Boston (above and below)
London (below)
 Star Trek Into Darkness opens midnight the evening May 16th, in some US locations.



 Darkness can be evil personified.

What Would War Between Israel And Syria Do To The Already Fragile Global Economy?

War Between Israel And Syria?War is a horrible thing.  Just ask anyone that has ever been in the middle of it.  And in this day and age governments around the world possess weapons of such incalculable power that war should be unthinkable.  In future wars, we could literally see millions of people killed on a single day.  Nobody should want that or look forward to that.  Unfortunately, the next major regional war in the Middle East appears to be closer than ever.  But nobody should want it to actually happen.  During the next major regional war in the Middle East we will likely see death on a scale that is unprecedented.  It won't be like the wars of 1967 or 1973.  It will likely be a fight to the death where nothing is held back.  You see, the truth is that most Americans have no idea what is really going on in the Middle East.  There are ancient grudges and ancient hatreds that go back for thousands of years.  There is no "peace plan" that is going to suddenly make everything okay.  The Middle East is a simmering volcano of hate and resentment that could erupt at any moment.  That is why what is happening in Syria right now is so important.  An Israeli airstrike in Damascus that reportedly was attempting to destroy a shipment of Fateh-110 missiles that Iran was sending to Hezbollah has brought Israel and Syria to the brink of war.  In fact, Syria is calling the airstrike a "declaration of war" and is vowing retaliation.  The Syrian government is saying that "Israeli aggression opens the door to all possibilities", but they have not provided any specifics about what they plan to do.  Meanwhile, Israel has made it very clear that they will do whatever is necessary to keep Fateh-110 missiles from getting into the hands of Hezbollah.  With those missiles, Iranian-backed Hezbollah would have the capability of striking the heart of Tel Aviv with a very high degree of accuracy.  So it is definitely understandable why Israel would not want Hezbollah to have those missiles.  Just think about it - would you want Russia or China to deploy highly advanced missile systems in northern Mexico which could rain down hell on Los Angeles and Dallas in less than five minutes?  Unfortunately, this gives Iran the perfect way to provoke a war between Israel and Syria.  All they have to do is keep rolling trucks loaded with Fateh-110 missiles through war-torn Syria toward Hezbollah bases in Lebanon.  Israel will feel forced to intervene, and the rest of the Islamic world will get angrier and angrier.
The explosions that rocked northern Damascus on Sunday were absolutely massive.  It is being reported that they registered about two or three on the Richter scale, and enormous balls of fire that lit up the sky could be seen from all over Damascus.
The following is how the Washington Post described the attack...
Israeli warplanes bombed the outskirts of Damascus early Sunday for the second time in recent days, according to Syrian state media and reports from activists, signaling a sharp escalation in tensions between the neighboring countries that had already been exacerbated by the conflict raging in Syria.
Videos posted on the Internet by activists showed a huge fireball erupting on Mount Qassioun, a landmark hill overlooking the capital on which the Syrian government has deployed much of the firepower it is using against rebel-controlled areas surrounding the city.
So why did Israel do this?
Despite what the anti-Israel crowd is suggesting, Israel did not do this just to be mean.  As Reuters is reporting, Israel was specifically targeting Fateh-110 missiles that were on their way to Hezbollah...
Israel does not confirm such missions explicitly - a policy it says is intended to avoid provoking reprisals. But an Israeli official told Reuters on condition of anonymity that the strikes were carried out by its forces, as was a raid early on Friday that U.S. President Barack Obama said had been justified.
A Western intelligence source told Reuters: "In last night's attack, as in the previous one, what was attacked were stores of Fateh-110 missiles that were in transit from Iran to Hezbollah."
These missiles would significantly change the balance of power if they got into the hands of Hezbollah.  According to the Times of Israel, Fateh-110 missiles would be a very serious threat not only to Tel Aviv - these missiles would also threaten cities all the way down to Beersheba...
Uzi Rubin, a missile expert and former Defense Ministry official, told the Associated Press that if the target was a consignment of Fatah-110 missiles, then such weaponry did constitute a “game-changer”: Fired from Syria or south Lebanon, these missiles, he said, could reach almost anywhere in Israel with high accuracy.
Rubin emphasized that he was speaking as a rocket expert and had no details about the reported strikes.
“If fired from southern Lebanon, they can reach Tel Aviv and even [the southern city of] Beersheba,” Rubin said. He said the rockets are much five times more accurate than the Scud missiles that Hezbollah has fired in the past. “It is a game-changer because they are a threat to Israel’s infrastructure and military installations,” he said.
So that is why Israel carried out these airstrikes.  They feel like they simply cannot allow Hezbollah to have these weapons.  And with Hezbollah's track record, that is very understandable.
Unfortunately, these airstrikes have also brought the Middle East much closer to the next war.
According to the Jerusalem Post, Syria is positioning units for a potential conflict with Israel...
Syria has stationed missile batteries aimed at Israel in the aftermath of alleged Israeli air strikes in the country, the website of Lebanon's Al Mayadeen TV, considered close to the regime of President Bashar Assad, quoted a top Syrian official as saying on Sunday.
In response, Israel has deployed two Iron Dome batteries to northern Israel, they have closed off airspace in northern Israel to commercial traffic, and Israeli embassies around the world have been put on high alert.
But Syria may choose not to retaliate against Israel directly.  According to WND, Syria may decide to allow jihadist groups to carry out their vengeance for them...
The Syrian government will soon declare it is opening its borders with Israel for Palestinian and other jihad groups to carry out attacks against the Jewish state, a senior Syrian official told WND.
Separately, informed Middle Eastern security officials said the Syrian army held a meeting Sunday afternoon with the leaders of the military wing of the Iranian-backed Islamic Jihad terrorist group to discuss retaliation against Israel for the recent air strikes near Damascus.
According to those officials, Islamic Jihad and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah are coordinating a possible reaction to Israel’s reported strikes.
In any event, things are definitely becoming more unstable over in the Middle East.
So what would a war between Israel and Syria do to the already fragile global economy?
Well, a war between Israel and Syria would likely paralyze the entire region.  Hezbollah and Hamas would almost certainly jump into the war on the side of Syria, and there is the potential that nations such as Iran, Egypt and even Jordan could get involved as well.
In such a scenario, the flow of oil from the Middle East could become interrupted for an extended period of time, and that would have serious consequences for the global economy.
But the bigger threat to the global economy would be the fear that a regional war in the Middle East would create.  Global financial markets respond very badly to fear, and right now the world economy is already teetering on the brink of disaster.  Much of Europe has already descended into a full-blown economic depression, and there are signs that the greatest debt bubble in the history of the planet is starting to burst.
The next major wave of the economic collapse is rapidly approaching, and a major regional war in the Middle East would greatly accelerate our economic problems.
Unfortunately, it appears that such a conflict is inevitable.
I don't believe that it will happen yet though.  For the moment, I believe that cooler headers will prevail.
But as tensions continue to rise, I believe that we will see tempers boil over and the Middle East will descend into full-blown warfare at some point within the next several years.
Of course I could always be wrong about this.  We will just have to wait and see what happens.

DID YOU CATCH THEM?

Posted by George Freund on May 5, 2013 at 7:55 PM

If you reviewed the Conspiracy movie Catch me if you can, did you notice the clues? One of the big ones is Frank left the United States. He started spending fraudulent cheques in what city? MADRID. FBI agent Hanratty wants to go to Madrid to stop him. He is denied permission. It is frequantly the way. So what's the point of all this? The point is you missed the clue. Frank enters a hotel room in the film. The room number gets a closeup. Do you know how many aspiring stars would envy a closeup? All of them. What was so important about the number. It was 3113. Now factor that in your search with MADRID. It was a bombing of a train on 3/11.

Frank takes up residence in the Riverbend apartments in Atlanta. Of course back in 1996 there was another famous bombing there with the Olympics. He also goes to New Orleans the site of all the chicanery in the Lee Harvey Oswald days. They are so bold they can in your face all this and no one sees much of anything. Then there is the train engine 3113 that takes us to the present day.

There's CP Rail's 3113

The Burlington Northern Sante Fe has a 3113. They merged with Canadian National. Or it could just be code for train and New York as exemplified by this popular model train.
-

-
When Frank is returned to the U.S. from France Agent Hanratty tells him his father died in a fall at Grand Central Station trying to catch a train. Frank and Hanratty exchange calls on Christmas eve. That could imply a strike date. The 'terrorists' the RCMP arrested were alleged to have been involved in a plot to attack a VIA train.

The twilight language leaves little for the imagination. For whatever reason it exists, it can be read by anybody with eyes to see. All it requires is an open mind to be led where the images take us. We can catch them if we try. The movie was an enjoyable little spoof. The animated introduction was the tour de force. It showed how one can move through the fringes in the shadows in plain site and achieve an objective and escape the same way unseen and undetected. The ending shows Frank coming into the ploy of the FBI. That is the case with the so called 'terrorists' too I fear. We'll see how the story pans out. Then we'll know here and now we caught them.

U.S. Government Fears End of Megaupload Case

The U.S. Government has just submitted its objections to Megaupload’s motion to dismiss the case against the company. Megaupload’s lawyers have pointed out that the Department of Justice is trying to change the law to legitimize the destruction of Megaupload. However, the Government refutes this assertion and asks the court to deny Megaupload’s motion, fearing that otherwise the entire case may fall apart.
megauploadSeveral months ago Megaupload filed a request to dismiss the indictment against it, until the U.S. Government finds a way to properly serve the company.
Megaupload based its request on “Rule 4” of criminal procedure, which requires the authorities to serve a company at an address in the United States. However, since Megaupload is a Hong Kong company, this was and is impossible.
The defense argued that the court can only protect Megaupload’s due process rights by dismissing the case. However, the Government disagreed and asked the court to deny Megaupload’s motion. Among other things the Government claimed that federal rules shouldn’t be interpreted so narrowly.
Two weeks ago Megaupload renewed its request and the defunct file-hosting company noted that the Government was trying to change the law in its favor. The lawyers cited a letter to the Advisory Committee on the Criminal Rules where the DoJ made suggestions that would directly influence the Megaupload case.
Among other things the letter suggested an amendment to the law so that it would no longer be a requirement to serve a foreign company in the United States. Megaupload’s lawyers used the letter to point out to the court that the Government knew very well that it was not playing by the rules.
This week the U.S. Government replied to the motion, stating that Megaupload misrepresents the facts.
The Government explains that the DoJ’s letter begins with “a bedrock principle of criminal law, one that applies equally to both organizations and natural persons,” citing the following passage:
“When a person located abroad violates the laws of the United States, that person may be held criminally liable despite the fact that the person has never set foot in the United States.”
In other words, every person and company in the world should comply with U.S. law. The Government explains that some companies including Megaupload are exploiting “Rule 4” to remain unaccountable. However, the Government tells the court that the suggestion to improve the law doesn’t mean that Megaupload can’t be prosecuted.
“The Department never concedes, as Megaupload wrongly claims, that a proper interpretation of Rule 4 would bar the company’s prosecution,” the Government tells the court in its most recent filing.
In addition to this clarification the Government further references an additional legal precedent which shows that foreign companies without an address in the United States can be criminally prosecuted.
The Government’s response ends with a “warning” that dismissing the indictment against Megaupload, even temporarily, may mean the end of the case.
“Such dismissal, even without prejudice, would harm (perhaps fatally) the government’s ability to fully prosecute serious criminal conduct of the corporate defendant Megaupload, the ability of victims to obtain justice, and the public’s interest in resolving this case efficiently,” the Government writes.
With the sentence above the Government suggests that the entire case against Megaupload could collapse, putting a lot of weight on the decision of District Court Judge Liam O’Grady, and perhaps not unintentionally.
Under this pressure the Judge now has to decide whether or not Megaupload should be dismissed from the indictment. If that’s the case, Megaupload plans to give users access to the files that were seized, and it will also free up funds for a proper defense.

The New Normal: Boston Bombing Suspect Interrogated Without Counsel

Kurt Nimmo

Robel Phillipos.
According to lawyers Derege Demissie and Susan Church, Robel Phillipos, the teenager accused of lying to investigators after the Boston Marathon bombings, was interrogated without the benefit of a lawyer.
“This case is about a frightened and confused 19 year old who was subjected to intense questioning and interrogation, without the benefit of counsel, and in the context of one of the worst attacks against the nation,” the lawyers wrote. “The weight of the federal government under such circumstances can have a devastatingly crushing effect on the ability of an adolescent to withstand the enormous pressure and respond rationally.”
The Sixth Amendment states:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.
In Brewer v. Williams (1977) the court ruled that once an adversary proceeding has begun against a defendant, he has a right to legal representation when the government interrogates him.
It is unclear if the suspect was given his Miranda rights notification. Dzhokar Tsarnaev had asked several times for a lawyer, but that request was ignored because he was being interrogated under the public safety exemption to the Miranda rule. Obama’s DOJ has unilaterally expanded the exception far beyond what the Supreme Court has established.
Glenn Greenwald writes:
Delaying Miranda warnings under the “public safety exception” – including under the Obama DOJ’s radically expanded version of it – is one thing. But denying him the right to a lawyer after he repeatedly requests one is another thing entirely: as fundamental a violation of crucial guaranteed rights as can be imagined. As the lawyer bmaz comprehensively details in this excellent post, it is virtually unheard of for the “public safety” exception to be used to deny someone their right to a lawyer as opposed to delaying a Miranda warning (the only cases where this has been accepted were when “the intrusion into the constitutional right to counsel… was so fleeting – in both it was no more than a question or two about a weapon on the premises of a search while the search warrant was actively being executed”). To ignore the repeated requests of someone in police custody for a lawyer, for hours and hours, is just inexcusable and legally baseless.
“This is a US citizen arrested for an alleged crime on US soil: there is no justification whatsoever for denying him his repeatedly exercised right to counsel,” Greenwald continues. “And there are ample and obvious dangers in letting the government do this.”
DOJ boss Holder and the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Mike Rogers, complained about Tsarnaev’s appearance before a judge and his right to counsel. They have called for an investigation.
If Phillipos was indeed denied counsel during his interrogation, it is another indication that the government will arrogantly ignore the Sixth and the Fifth amendments in criminal cases it defines as terrorism.
As the Indefinite Detention clause of the NDAA demonstrates, the government is determined to use the war on terror as an excuse to violate the rights of Americans. “The statute is particularly dangerous because it has no temporal or geographic limitations, and can be used by this and future presidents to militarily detain people captured far from any battlefield,” the ACLU noted after Obama signed the bill into law.
Mission Creep Police State
The government is determined to exploit the war on terror to increase its reach. The Department of Homeland Security was established in late 2002 for the purpose of responding to terrorist attacks, man-made accidents, and natural disasters. It has since declared it is “responsible for investigating a wide range of domestic and international activities arising from the illegal movement of people and goods” and “immigration crime, human rights violations and human smuggling, smuggling of narcotics, weapons and other types of contraband, financial crimes, cybercrime and export enforcement issues.”
“September 11 provided the federal government with a bullet-proof excuse to further absorb and integrate state and local law enforcement, a project that has been underway at least since the late 1960s,” I wrote last March.
Over the last decade, the feds have established a number of efforts to nationalize law enforcement and create a number of organizations designed to supposedly “protect the homeland” from not only terrorists – most handled by the FBI and the CIA – but all sorts of domestic criminals, including those who engage in victimless crimes such as drug use and prostitution.
There are now dozens of organizations feeding off tax dollars dispensed by the feds – from FEMA’s Citizen Corps to Volunteers in Police Service and Infragard and beyond. In many ways, these federally-funded and organized groups rival the police state apparatus active in Nazi Germany and Stalin’s Soviet Union.
The DHS has strived to incorporate non-terrorist crime into its ever-growing agenda – and subsequently promote its raison d’être as another federal agency lining up at the tax trough to gobble up billions of dollars of wealth confiscated from the producers.
For example, the DHS now “protects victims” from “domestic violence and other violent crimes” that have nothing to do with the late CIA asset Osama bin Laden or the would-be nineteen hijackers who trained on U.S. military bases. The mega-bureaucracy now doles out money to everything from “Juvenile Accountability” to anti-counterfeiting, border security, and computer incident response.
But it really shines when it comes to acting as a political surveillance tool for the establishment. It has successfully exploited the global jihad terror myth to spy on antiwar and patriot groups and recently the Occupy movement. So-called fusion centers – centralized high-tech Orwellian snoop hubs – now dot the landscape and feed data into the DHS leviathan.
Rep. Jack Brooks questions Oliver North.
Obviously, the role of a radically expanded surveillance and police state is not to protect us from terrorists the government created – and continues to create for its political theater – but to undermine and subvert opposition to the government and the establishment status quo.
In order for a police state to work effectively, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights must be subverted and rendered useless as well. Political enemies of the elite must not be allowed access to counsel or appear before judges.
The United States is rapidly becoming a third world dictatorship where enemies of the state disappear. It is a long-term project going back decades.
In 1987 during the Iran-Contra hearings, Congressman Jack Brooks gave us a brief glimpse of what the government has in mind – the “suspension of the Constitution, turning control of the government over to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, emergency appointment of military commanders to run state and local governments and declaration of martial law during a national crisis,” and the roundup and internment of political enemies.

Arrangement and analysis of still photos from the aftermath of the initial Boston Marathon bombing blast reveals incongruities in the appearances of injuries, absence of wounds where wounds should be readily observable vis-à-vis punctured and torn clothing, and possible application and donning of makeup by figures present.

Anomalies Emerge in Photos of Second Bomb Site http://memoryholeblog.com/2013/05/04/anomalies-emerge-in-photos-of-second-bomb-site/

Memory Hole has a good many sharp readers and comment contributors. This detailed set of observations was submitted as a lengthy comment and addresses unusual elements of the far-less-photographed second bombing site. Given its especially important points I have requested the author’s permission to present the commentary as a guest post, to which she agreed provided her anonymity is preserved.-JT

1. In this photo of the second blast site a metal barrier is apparently thrown against the grey mailbox with such force that it bent at roughly a 90-degree angle. Why wasn’t the mailbox even slightly dented by the impact of the bomb and/or the metal fencing?

2. The direction of the bend (along with the absence of other structural damage) seems to imply that the bomb was immediately behind the left corner of the fence. Yet in this well-circulated picture, the bomb is claimed to be in front of the fence.
The moment the second explosion occurred near the
And in the highly-publicized photo of the second blast, the ordnance appears to be a significant distance from the street, perhaps on the patio of the Forum Restaurant. Indeed, according to the Forum’s management, “the second bomb exploded right on our patio.” If this is the case, is the bent fence a stage prop?
3. In the first photo above, one metal barrier is curled around the mailbox; the nearest one next to it is immediately behind the Tow Zone sign. But in the second photo, we see that there was another section of fencing between them. What happened to that section? It doesn’t appear in any of the post-blast photos. Did it vaporize?
Boston Marathon bombings: Shocking picture of Irish racer
4. In this photo, which appears to show Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in the background, a blue US postal box is seen leaning up against the grey one. When did that appear, and where did it go? Why is it there? Is it concealing some bent fencing? Is it reasonable to suppose that the Tsarnaev brothers installed a fake mailbox, and then somehow removed both it and a section of metal fencing? Were the photos widely distributed by major media outlets digitally altered to include the blue USPS box and perhaps even Tsarnaev?
Note that the above photo was not taken at the finish line, as an accompanying story claims, but outside the Forum restaurant, at the second blast site.

5. After the smoke has cleared and the victims (including, reportedly, 8-year-old Martin Richard) are lying dead or bleeding on the ground. Yet the faces of the people around them aren’t grim, shocked or anguished–-they’re calm and matter-of-fact. Are these people unaware of the child’s death? Is no one disturbed at the scale of tragedy?
If everything except the first explosion is real, then here’s another puzzling fact: CNN interviewed the same woman both at the marathon, and at the alleged shootout with the Tsarneav brothers in Watertown.

Look especially at 0:34-0:40 and 1:36-1:39. What are the odds that this woman was in both places by accident?  Even more improbably, there’s video footage suggesting that this same woman was interviewed about Nancy Lanza in connection with the Sandy Hook incident.

6. There are a couple of photos showing the state of nearby windows. For example, the above photo shows that one of the windows– but only one–was broken at the Starbucks, next door to the Forum. This photo also has a faint reflection overlaid on the door between the Forum and the Starbucks, showing a police car and a couple of officers near it. I’m not sure what surface is reflecting this image. I assume it’s a window just in front of the photographer.
http://www.motherjones.com/files/BH6ju2NCMAAzhqs.jpg_large.jpg
Next door, at the Forum, this photo shows the one upstairs window that broke (above the “m” of “Forum”).
http://hamodia.com/hamod-uploads/2013/04/FP-Boston-Bomb-Suspect-Spotted-On-Video-3.jpg
In a photo from the following day  we see the same broken window showing the glass below it, inside and outside the window.  We also see another broken window to the left of it, whose glass has been propelled quite far outwards.  I think it’s fair to say that this second shatter pattern could not have been caused by a bomb blast outside the restaurant.
http://cryptome.org/2013-info/04/boston-bombs/pict14.jpg
On the other hand, this photo from shortly after the blast, as well as the photo from the following day, shows that some, if not all, of the ground-floor windows were entirely intact at the Forum after the bomb went off in front of it.
The New York Times reports that two windows were blown out at the Forum (http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/04/17/us/caught-in-the-blast-at-the-boston-marathon.html?ref=us&_r=0). However, this may be an error; the panels lacking glass in the photo actually seem to be open doorways, not broken windows. Google Maps shows that all the glass panels along the front of the restaurant are narrow and door-sized; in the photos above, the gaps are twice as wide, with no door frames separating the missing glass panels. So we can reasonably conclude that the doors were simply open.
In fact, another look at that photo taken the next day seems to show that the missing door panels have been slid or (more likely) folded sideways, to a position either behind or in front of the adjacent door panels–note the double white line along the two panes of glass. There seems to be some glass on the ground in the next-day photo, but it is not clear where it comes from. No broken glass is seen at the edges of any of the visible door frames.
If the doors were instead open at a right angle to the sidewalk when the blast occurred, the blast likely would not have broken their windows. Bombs break glass because of a pressure wave that proceeds outwardly from the blast; if there was shrapnel, presumably that could break glass too. But if the blast was well in front of the restaurant, near the casualties, and the patio doors were open perpendicular to the sidewalk, the pressure wave and shrapnel would have been traveling mostly parallel to the glass, so it probably wouldn’t have broken.
If anything, we would have expected the closed ground-floor windows at the Forum to break, rather than (a) the open windows, (b) a second-floor window, or (c) a window next door at the Starbucks. Why do we see something different?

Graphene paint could power homes of the future

Houses could be painted with a new super-material that generates electricity from sunlight and can even change colour on request, following new research.

Graphene paint could power homes of the future

Scientists at the University of Manchester used wafers of graphene, the discovery of which won researchers a Nobel Prize, with thin layers of other materials to produce solar powered surfaces.
The resulting surfaces, which were paper thin and flexible, were able to absorb sunlight to produce electricity at a level that would rival existing solar panels.
These could be used to create a kind of “coat” on the outside of buildings to generate power needed to run appliances inside while also carrying other functions too, such as being able to change colour.
The researchers are now hoping to develop the technology further by producing a paint that can be put onto the outside of buildings.
But the scientists also say the new material could also allow a new generation of super-thin hand-held devices like mobile phones that can be powered by sunlight.
Professor Kostya Novoselov, one of the Nobel Laureates who discovered graphene, a type of carbon that forms sheets just one atom thick, said: “We have been trying to go beyond graphene by combining it with other one atom thick materials.
“What we have been doing is putting different layers of these materials one on top of the other and what you get is a new type of material with a unique set of properties.
“It is like a book – one page contains some information but together the book is so much more.
“We have demonstrated that we can produce a very efficient photovoltaic device. The fact it is flexible will hopefully make it easier to use.
“We are working on paints using this material as our next work but that is further down the line.”
Graphene was first discovered in 2004. Andrew Geim and Professor Novoselov won the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics for demonstrating its remarkable properties – that it was harder than diamond, transparent and could conduct electricity while only being one atom thick.
Professor Novoselov and colleagues at the University of Singapore found that if they combined layers of graphene with single one atom thick layers of a material known as transition metal dichalcogenides, which react to light, they could generate electricity.
Their findings are published in the journal Science.
Professor Novoselov added: “We are taking about a new paradigm of material science.
“We can make sandwiches of materials and produce any kind of functionality so we can put transistors and photovoltaics to produce power for them.
“The implementations would go much further than simple solar powered cells.”
