CATALYSTS OF TIME: The neglected knowledge
|
|

-
There
are epochs in time that are either not known at all or are not very
well known and perhaps labelled 'conspiracy' theory because they offend
the programming most minds have been subjected to. Like all computers,
if they are fed data that the programmers haven't made acceptable by the
machine in question, it will be rejected. In the human term, it will be
scoffed at and rejected because all the lies we have been told set the
framework of our worldview. That is why propaganda is the greatest
weapon devised. If the mind can be thought to think a circle is a
square, then it is. In reading a book on the history of MI6,
I came across a couple of events I hadn't heard of before. They were
before my time and yours unless you are both very, very old and very,
very well informed. I would call these events catalysts
in effect like the effect in the chemical reaction. A small amount of
something is added to other chemicals producing a massive effect way out
of proportion to the other chemicals. Outside of propaganda there can
occur thought catalysts whereby a small idea can stimulate the minds of
the masses and determine destinies of cultures and civilizations.
Propaganda and the control of thought processes by media concentration
effect a firewall to the human mind. We think we are free until we touch
the forbidden fruit. That is the raison d'etra to the classifications
of state secrets that headline the whistle blower stories
of Bradley Manning, Julian Assange, and Edward Snowden. If we were
really and truly free, we couldn't be a threat to the system from
knowing its secrets.
-

-
One of the little jewels in the book was the Zinoviev letter.
I had never been exposed to that one before. In its day, it graced
British newspapers days before a general election. It was designed as a
catalyst to defeat the existing government at the polls by way of
deception. James Ramsay McDonald the
Prime Minister and leader of the labour party was a little too left for
the business element. He might be prone to give a little more of the
pie to the workers. That has always been a formula for a mass mind
control operation. Treaties with Russia, the Communist state it was in
1924, were being negotiated. Information 'terrorists' were speaking out
and labelled seditious because they were telling things to military men
that might exceed their programming.
-
Where, in
fact, that was quite true; the Soviets were EVIL, but as we proceed we
can assume Comrade Stalin was a British agent. I digress. Days before
the election, the intelligence services acquired a letter from one
Grigory Zinoviev to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of
Great Britain. It called for communist mobilization of forces within the
governing labour party and propaganda against the military. The
intelligence services verified the letter. It was released to the media.
Newspapers like the Daily Mail screamed for blood with banner
headlines of Civil War Plot. Of course labour lost the election not
because their following dropped but because the liberal vote collapsed
as fear drove their supporters to the conservatives. All in all it was a
very effective psyops. The pistol is fired, and we stampede like
cattle. If we were programmed with the book of tricks, we would very
well recognize the technique and hold fast.
-

-
The
letter was found to be the work of Ivan Dmitrievich Pokrovsky of the
White (Tsarist) Russian security services. He took comments from
Zinoviev's speeches and coined them into the letter. He was paid by a
Captain Black of the British intelligence services. The Latvian
political police discovered the link. I'm sure it didn't make headlines.
The British Intelligence services denied they faked the letter even
after the smoking gun evidence filled the room. They staked their
reputation on it. The new Foreign Secretary, Sir Austen Chamberlain, brother of future Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain
the appeaser of dictators as he as labelled by history in his relations
to negotiations with Adolf Hitler; dealt with the issue. The
intelligence services must have sworn tooth and nail the risk of the
Nazi leader to brother Neville, but at a crucial time before they lied
about rigging an election. They stonewalled after they got caught. They
got away with it. However, the mothers of the intelligence leaders
probably never read The Boy Who Cried Wolf to
them. They shouted wolf when there wasn't one. When there was no one
listened all that well. The wolf burst among the flock. Tens of millions
died for it. The Zinoviev letter was a catalyst of time. It made World
War II a certainty.
-

-
In a more modern rendition a President assured us a country had weapons of mass destruction based on a flawed report on yellowcake.
-
Another catalyst occurred with the work of a so called staunch anti-communist of the cold war era Boris Georgievich Bazhanov.
Hardly a household name he shaped modern history at a key juncture. He
was the party secretary to the Central Committee of the Soviet
government in revolutionary days. That's quite a switcheroo to be an
anti-communist in his senior years. The reason why was he was a British
agent passing Central Committee documents to the British. Talk about a
coup. However, actions speak louder than words. He solved one of the
great mysteries of life although no one can begin to even understand the
play. We are programmed by a pop culture movie to believe that the only winning move is not to play
the game. That makes good sense sort of except the enemy is going to
play whether you like it or not. So if you don't play, you lose
outright. A better winning move is to learn to play the game. It is a
long and arduous process. The best winning move is to change the rules
as well to their original.
-
That stratagem is used
all the time. The free trade treaties are one good example. Workers and
countries rights are eliminated while the bulk of people pay absolutely
no attention to the effect. Even though they will be relegated to
servitude, they are too lazy to look the word up in the dictionary.
Another main one would be gun control. You are programmed to trust and
disarm so that when the wolf bursts among the flock, you will be
helpless and they will win easily. It works almost every time. This time
I'm riding shotgun on the stage. Hands up varmints! No changing the
rules. The right to bear arms existed since Britain's Bill of Rights and the people were liberated from the Inquisition. Sounds like an important rule you shouldn't mess with.
-

-
no
royal interference in the freedom of the people to have arms for their
own defence as suitable to their class and as allowed by law
(simultaneously restoring rights previously taken from Protestants by
James II)
-
And you thought it was a crazy
American idea. They wrote it down too. They knew their history. It
repeats. The next Inquisition will teach us again that the ultimate
power belongs in the hands of the people. It is a hard lesson. That's
why it lasted as long as it did. There's a few other things being
stripped away as well like courts, taxation, free speech, fines and
forfeitures, excessive bail, cruel and unusual punishments, and
the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679. You see the right to bear arms is the
cornerstone of civilization whether we like it or not. We change the
rules with the dictator's adage only the police and the military should
have arms. The wolf from Little Red Riding Hood would add, "The better
to kill you with my dear." Of course a few massacres orchestrated by the
intelligence services dark hand make the icing on the disarmament cake.
We always stampede.
-

-
Of
course we can't forget Boris. As Committee secretary and British agent
of MI1c as it was known then, he rewrote the rules for ascension of
party leadership. Leaders like Lenin and Trotsky were most likely too
busy to read all that dry material. He paved the way for Comrade Stalin
to assume control. Even though outed twice as suspect, he was never
eliminated in the purges that swept Russia killing millions with so much
as a rumour. George's axiom of you don't shoot your own dog bears
witness here. Boris escaped overland through Persia and took up
residence in Paris in the 30's. He wrote intelligence reports for the
Polish on Russia a country that invaded and took half. That's some
catalyst. It set the stage for World War II as well. The broad agenda of
the intelligence services was to get the nationalized Russian oil wells
returned. We never learn. I wonder if the cartoon character Boris Badenov was his memorial.
-

-
Boris, Natasha and Fearless Leader
-
Those
who don't know their history are condemned to repeat it. Therefore, if
you wish to see the future, look back. It's all there. All you have to
do is turn your head. If you don't prepare for the stampede it's a
certainty. The neglected knowledge tells us so. The British agent
assigned to assassinate Stalin, Stephen Alley, was sent home by
Mansfield Cumming the infamous 'C.' He didn't shoot his own dog either.
Obamacare Provision: “Forced” Home Inspections
truther August 15, 2013
Joshua Cook
“Clearly, any family may be visited by federally paid agents for almost any reason.” According to an Obamacare provision millions of Americans will be targeted.
The Health and Human Services’ website
states that your family will be targeted if you fall under the
“high-risk” categories below:
- Families where mom is not yet 21.
- Families where someone is a tobacco user.
- Families where children have low student achievement, developmental delays, or disabilities.
- Families with individuals who are serving or formerly served in the armed forces, including such families that have members of the armed forces who have had multiple deployments outside the United States.
There is no reference to Medicaid being the determinant for a family to be “eligible.”
In 2011, the HHS announced $224 million
will be given to support evidence-based home visiting programs to “help
parents and children.” Individuals from the state will implement these
leveraging strategies to “enhance program sustainability.”
Constitutional attorney and author Kent Masterson Brown states,
“This is not a “voluntary” program. The eligible entity receiving the grant for performing the home
visits is to identify the individuals to be visited and intervene so as
to meet the improvement benchmarks. A homeschooling family, for
instance, may be subject to “intervention” in “school readiness” and
“social-emotional developmental indicators.” A farm family may be
subject to “intervention” in order to “prevent child injuries.” The sky
is the limit.
Although the Obama administration would claim the provision applies only to Medicaid
families, the new statute, by its own definition, has no such
limitation. Intervention may be with any family for any reason. It may
also result in the child or children being required to go to certain
schools or taking certain medications and vaccines and even having more
limited – or no – interaction with parents. The federal government will
now set the standards for raising children and will enforce them by home visits.”
Part of the program will require massive
data collecting of private information including all sources of income
and the amount gathered from each source.
A manual called Child Neglect: A Guide for
Prevention, Assessment, and Intervention includes firearms as potential
safety hazard and will require inspectors to verify safety compliance
and record each inspection into a database.
Last session South Carolina Rep. Bill Chumley introduced a bill, H.3101 that would nullify certain provisions of Obamacare.
The bill would give the state attorney general the authority to
authorize law enforcement to arrest federal agents for trespassing. It
would make forced home inspections under Obamacare illegal in South Carolina. It passed in the House but died in the senate.
Kent Brown and Rep. Rick Quinn discuss “forced” home inspections under Obamacare in the video below.

Bombshell: Hillary Clinton Screamed At Congressman 2 Days After Benghazi Attack For Suggesting It Was A Terror Attack
truther August 16, 2013
Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) spoke at a town hall meeting on Wednesday evening dropped a bombshell about former Secretary Hillary Clinton. According to Kinzinger, Clinton shouted him down for suggesting that the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2012 in Benghazi, Libya were the result of Islamic terrorists.

“Two days after this attack we were in a briefing with Hillary Clinton and she screamed at a member of Congress who’d dare suggest that this was a terrorist attack,” Kinzinger said.
Kinzinger then added, “Now we find out that while it was happening they knew it was a terrorist attack.”
In the video, Kinzinger doesn’t point to any source for his claims. However, we do know from various people that many in the administration did know that the attacks in Benghazi were jihadist terrorist attacks.
Former CIA Director, General David Petraeus told Congress that Benghazi was a terrorist attack “almost instantly.” The CIA, apparently knew it as well. The White House knew it was a terrorist attack within two hours, according to emails from the State Department. AFRICOM General Carter Ham said he knew it was a terror attack.
So why the cover-up? Why the manipulating of talking points? Why was the anti-Islam video and its creator used as the scapegoat? The truth is sometimes hard to swallow, but I think Dean Garrison laid out one of the best scenarios of what really took place in Benghazi.
The question now remains, will the Senate call Hillary Clinton back to answer these charges as Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) said, or will they choose to ignore these facts and exclaim as Clinton did, “What difference does it make?”

Copyright Troll Ran Pirate Bay Honeypot, Comcast Confirms
As the poster child for copyright trolls, Prenda Law has been running into all sorts of trouble lately. In June, Prenda and its boss John Steele were accused of running a “honeypot” based on an expert report authored by Delvan Neville, whose company specializes in monitoring BitTorrent users.
The report hinted that the law firm was seeding the very files they claimed to protect, and found that many of the torrents detailed in Prenda lawsuits originate from a user on The Pirate Bay called ‘Sharkmp4′.
In an effort to expose the alleged honeypot, The Pirate Bay then jumped in and revealed the IP-addresses that ‘Sharkmp4′used to upload the torrent files. Since the site wipes all IP-addresses after 48 hours, The Pirate Bay team had to decrypt older backups to eventually offer the list below.
Sharkmp4 IP-addresses

While the public is already convinced that the honeypot is real, the Pirate Bay evidence has now become part of the AF Holdings v Patel case which could land the law firm in even more trouble.
After a judge approved discovery to both parties in the case, defense lawyer Blair Chintella sent out a series of subpoenas hoping to expose the copyright troll’s nefarious tactics.
One of the subpoenas covered the Comcast IP-address 75.72.88.156 used by “Sharkmp4,” as can be seen at the bottom of the list of Pirate Bay IPs shown above.
After a few weeks Comcast returned the subscriber details that matched the IP-address at the time the files were uploaded. As can be seen from their response detailed below, this IP is indeed the Comcast account of Steele Hansmeier PLLC, which is directly connected to Prenda Law.
Comcast confirms

The revelations above are the first solid proof of copyright trolls operating a honeypot scheme on The Pirate Bay, or any other BitTorrent site for that matter.
The honeypot strategy is just one piece of the puzzle, albeit an important one. The defense team has filed more subpoenas which are expected to be returned later, in the hope of uncovering more dirt on Prenda and its associates.
The discovery process in the case is still ongoing and ends in September. After the dust has settled it will be up to the court to decide how to rule on this and other damning revelations.
The irony of the above is that Prenda is now being haunted by the IP-address subpoenas they first used to pressure accused file-sharers into paying thousands of dollars in settlement fees.
Perhaps that can be called justice?
Tangible v Intangible Money – Why Times Have Changed

The mantra of Goldbugs has been that paper money is worthless and only gold is money. That is pretty much like saying the earth is still flat. Money has historically been many things and gold is only one of them. The issue is always the fact that money (regardless of what it is) rises and falls and everyone since the time of Hammurabi have been trying to create the perfect world where assets rise and you make money, yet at the same time money does not decline in purchasing power. This is just impossible and the problem is the fool who is too scared to invest so he wants to hold only cash and then complains where it buys less and says that is evil and not fair.

Gold is a commodity and resides on the asset side of the balance sheet. The Goldbugs tout the German Hyperinflation and somehow pretend that only gold survived when in fact it was all assets. Indeed, the replacement currency that stopped the hyperinflation was backed by real estate – not gold. Understanding what we face is the real key. Owning real estate, stocks, and gold is a diversified portfolio. They all rise against the decline in purchasing power of money regardless what it is. When gold was money, it then declined against real estate and stocks. WHATEVER is money moves opposite of assets.
Up to now, gold has been the WORST performing asset within that class. Just to match the 1980 high adjusted for inflation gold needs to be $2300. The Dow Jones was 1,000 and today we are approaching 16,000. If gold has performed in the same manner it should have reach $14,000. Gold will rally sharply as a hedge against government. We are not headed into hyperinflation – we are headed into a very dangerous black hole where government destroys the entire economy in pursuit of taxes.
In the USA there are 609.8 million credit cards that have been issued with about $800 billion in outstanding debt on average. A total of 78% of all American have a credit card and 80% have a debt card. But the real statistic is demonstrating the evolution of money that I have been writing about. We are approaching the 50% level where Americans have gone a full week without ever handling money in paper or coin form (latest number was 43%). The younger generations go into Starbucks and hand their phone to pay by Google Wallets. They prefer texting to phone calls. Things are a changing. It helps to stick you head out the window when you drive like a dog – it is a lot different out there than it use to be.

Money as we know it is becoming electronic. The good news is in doing so, this is really one giant step for society. Taxes were necessary when money was tangible. The king needed to get some back in order to pay his bills. Now that money is electronic, everything has changed and tangible forms of money are vanishing heading off into the same place vacuum tubes, 45 records, and 8-Track tapes went. I am an old 4-speed stick-driver. I like the control. You have to order stick in many cars today and they quickly ask – gee you know how to drive one? When I go to a parking garage, not everyone can take your car. It is amazing.
As we approach this shift in trends within the global economy, stop being so prejudice. Grasp the understanding between assets and money. Why should you care in what you make the most money. The object here is to survive. Open your mind and see the world for what it is – a giant melting pot of assets v money everywhere.

Tangible assets survive because they are revalued in terms of the coming new currency. Our problem is not WHAT IS MONEY, but it is the DEBT. Once upon a time, it was less inflationary to borrow than print because you could not use the bonds as collateral for loans. Thus, they did not expand the money supply. Once we allowed T-Bills and bonds to be collateral, then we entered the realm where bonds and bills became money that simply paid interest. Money began paying interest with the Civil War to entice people to accept it. We have come full circle. The dollar is the reserve currency because it pays interest to hold it and the supply is deep enough for the world to use unlike the yen or the euro.
We are in the middle of a collapse in the economic structure upon which society was formed post-war. Marxism has combined with debt and this has produced a lethal dose that has poisoned the well. All governments are collapsing. They are fighting as nasty as they can desperately trying to hold on to their fleeting power. But the economic system is unsustainable as communism. This is the world we face. Wake up and smell the roses before the coffin closes. http://armstrongeconomics.com/2013/08/01/tangible-v-intangible-money-why-times-have-changed/
A little clarification on the EMP topic
This is education talking, I am not going to quote references, especially since finding this info might not be easy. If you have any questions try using Google. When an EMP weapon is specifically designed for the purpose of destroying electronics, it does not hit the same EMP frequency a nuclear weapon does. As I have stated many times on this web site, contrary to popular myth modern circuits are not easily destroyed by nuclear EMP. This is because they are designed entirely differently than circuits were designed in the 1970's when the EMP myth took hold, and even in the 70's nuclear EMP as presented was a load of baloney.Modern EMP weapons do not rely on a nuclear detonation to generate an EMP pulse
Modern EMP weapons function by generating an enormous magnetic field, and then using explosives to destroy whatever is creating that magnetic field. Since magnetic fields actually take on a physical form that is tangible and real, destroying the source of the magnetic field while that magnetic field is fully developed forces the magnetic field to extend outward very rapidly because it exists in a physical form and suddenly has nothing to contain it. For example - If you take a neodymium magnet and destroy it with a hammer it will create a small EMP because the magnetic field it had will suddenly have nowhere to exist. The magnetic field will therefore rapidly extend outward, and induce electrical currents into any conductors that are nearby. And a step farther - If a superconducting ring magnet which has had an enormous electric current induced into it (which will continuously flow in a circle around the magnet) is suddenly destroyed by an explosive, the total electrical energy potential that is flowing through the magnet will have no place to exist, and will rapidly expand outward in the form of magnetic waves and produce an enormous EMP. Since superconducting magnets are still difficult to do and impractical to build into a weapon, EMP weapons do not use superconducting magnets.Modern EMP weapons use coils of wire wrapped around an explosive core. A large electric current is passed through the wire, and when the resulting magnetic field is at it's peak, the explosives destroy the wire coils. And the EMP signature from such a device is drastically different from what is produced by a nuclear weapon
Nuclear EMP is not created by destroying an existing magnetic field. Nuclear EMP is created when the atoms in the device and surrounding the device get compressed by the shock wave created by the massive and instantaneous detonation. Nuclear EMP characteristics are therefore greatly affected by where the nuke goes off, a nuclear weapon of the exact same design will produce an EMP of one type when detonated in air, and have entirely different EMP characteristics when detonated below ground or in water. So nuclear EMP is very unpredictable, even humidity will affect its characteristics and since it is created by a shock wave, it's frequency is relatively low, never in excess of 20 Mhz and usually between 1 and 10 mhz. Because an EMP weapon functions by destroying an existing magnetic field it can be predictably optimized to hit higher frequencies that are far more damaging to modern circuits. But higher frequencies have less environmental penetration, and because EMP weapons are specifically designed to produce EMP in the Ghz range their reach is very limited, though they can easily devastate modern electronics that are within reach of the pulse.
If you really want to get an accurate perspective to what EMP which has been tailored to destroy modern electronics is really like, and not the garbage representation in the movie "the day after", watch The Matrix. In that movie they had a truthful representation of what EMP really will do when they used it to destroy the sentinels. Their EMP weapons did not reach out half way around the globe and blow out everything the way we have been trained to think a nuke will do, in reality - the reality they accurately showed, they had to allow the sentinels to get very close and destroy them at close range. And that was not for hollywood theatrics.
When it comes to penetration, frequency matters
The EMP generated by a nuclear weapon has a low frequency which has an enormous reach. So you can pretty much count on a large nuclear weapon to exert a big effect on electrical infrastructure even from a distance because lower frequencies travel better in the atmosphere and through liquids and solids. Since electrical infrastructure is large in size it can accept the low frequency and be affected by it. Historically however, all it did in Nevada during the nuclear tests was occasionally trip breakers and cause other minor disturbances due to interfering with power distribution, and in one case it supposedly damaged a rotary multiplexer (switch) at a nearby phone company. However, some skepticism exists regarding the damage to the switch, because the old rotary multiplexers were very high maintenance items anyway. The main point with regard to frequency and nuclear EMP is that a ground or low air burst nuclear weapon, if large enough in size, has the potential to at least temporarily knock out power and damage phone systems within a 100 mile radius because it's frequency is low and gets good penetration, and also will couple with the long wires found in power and phone systems. And if the nuclear weapon is detonated at the edge of space, it's EMP gets an enormous reach and could potentially knock out power across the entire North American continent. But due to it's low frequency it won't have a chance of destroying small electronic devices even with the extra kick it gets from being detonated at a high altitude.Because of the coupling limitations of low frequency, EMP weapons are specifically designed to hit higher frequencies than nukes
EMP weapons hit higher frequencies, and higher frequencies have advantages when it comes to destroying electronics, and severe disadvantages when it comes to penetration in the environment. The biggest factor is water vapor. Since a high frequency EMP weapon produces frequencies similar to what a microwave oven does, those frequencies get absorbed by the environment and converted to heat easily. In no cases have Ghz range EMP weapons been strategically effective outside of a two mile radius, because the atmosphere contains water, which soaks up the higher frequencies. And it gets worse than that - EMP weapons that have been designed to destroy electronics are very limited during periods of high humidity such as rain or fog, where their reach can be as little as 100 yards. So high frequency EMP weapons would work good against military targets such as aircraft carriers or the Pentagon in most weather, but due to their limited reach the civilian populations would have little to worry about because they would not be targeted by that type of weapon.How average people should prepare for EMP and the loss of the power grid, if it gets destroyed
Have non gasoline power back ups. Solar panels are now cheap and easy. You can get solar power built and ready to go for only $2 a watt now fairly easily, so 500 watts of solar panels can be had for under a thousand. Go to a truck stop to get your inverter, they are cheap at truck stops, Make sure you get at least a 2,000 watt unit if you have 500 watts of solar panels. If you have a real small setup - 100 watts, just get a 500 watt inverter, bigger ones will waste your feeble power source. Wal Mart will have good ones for cheap that are under a thousand watts. Just let it all sit around, don't bother installing anything when the grid is up unless you really want to go off grid right now, just wait until the disaster and believe me, there won't be ANY work to getting it all going when you need it because there won't be anything else to do but get it all going if you ever do need it. At that point you won't get gas for your car, it won't be available, so you can just rob the battery and barter for more batteries from other people to get your solar rig going the rest of the way. Sure, the batteries won't be ideal for solar, but after the end of the world, who cares? The key issue will be to at least have meaningful solar panels sitting somewhere, as well as a couple decent inverters.If you were not within the reach of any high frequency EMP devices, all your electronics will be fine provided the EMP disaster was a real one and not something that was faked by having the cell network tell your Intel CPU to self destruct or your car to stop running. You will love the CFL light bulbs when running solar. Granted, I don't like how they were shoved down everyone's throats, but they are superb for survival lighting. A proper 500 watt solar panel setup will be enough to run a microwave to pop popcorn or heat coffee, along with a lot of other mundane things like radios and laptop computers. Plasma televisions eat power like crazy, you can forget those. Incandescent lights are an extremely poor choice when running solar. A good inverter on a 500 watt system can even run a washing machine if the batteries are adequate and you conserve power before wash day. 500 watts of solar can simulate fairly normal living conditions if used thoughtfully.
And one final thing - if you are running solar after the big disaster, make sure you pull the power meter off the house or you will end up back feeding all your solar power onto the now defunct grid, where Bobbie and Stan will gleefully try to run their plasma TV. http://jimstonefreelance.com/index.html
