Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting

Serious Questions Arise Concerning the True Nature of the Events http://newtomorrow.us/ctshooting.html

On Friday, December 14th, 2012, an event of horrific proportions took place at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut:  More than two dozen people were reported to have been slain by a lone gunman inside of Sandy Hook Elementary School.  Twenty of the victims are reported to have been children.  The suspected shooter is said to be 20-year-old Adam Lanza, a shy and reclusive young man whom the media is reporting suffered from obsessive compulsive disorder, personality disorder as well as Asperger's Syndrome (autism).  Adam was said to have been armed with as many as five weapons as well as a bullet-proof vest at the time when the murders took place.  Reports state that he was also dressed in camouflage/black battle fatigues.  Reports have also surfaced from local police in which we are told that after opening fire and killing dozens of people, Adam Lanza then turned one of those guns on himself in an apparent murder/suicide.
     In the wake of this event, some very confusing details have surfaced in regards to the mainstream media's reports concerning the true nature of the events which took place inside the school.  The purpose of this write-up is merely to ask some very basic questions, as the media reports which have surfaced, when put together, seem to paint a very confusing picture.  
     This article is in NO WAY meant to confirm nor deny any of the reports coming forward.  It is merely meant as a forum for asking some deeper questions.  The scope of this tragedy is immeasurable, and we must all mourn deeply for the deaths of these innocent victims.

School Principal speaks to reporters before being killed

In a report posted in The Newtown Bee, the town's local newspaper, the following statement is made:

"Sandy Hook School Principal Dawn Hochsprung told the Bee that a masked man entered the school with a rifle and started shooting multiple shots-more than she could count-that went on and on."

This statement raises a very serious question:  How could the school principal, who is reported to have been one of those killed inside the school, have spoken to reporters before being murdered?  All mainstream media outlets report that the killings happened over a matter of minutes, so how could the principal have possibly made contact with reporters? 
     This report was taken down from The Newtown Bee's official website, but a screen of it is shown here:

DHS and FEMA run joint emergency preparedness drills at the Sandy Hook Fire Department in fall of 2010

In a rather coincidental turn of events, it appears that both the DHS (Department of Homeland Security) and FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) conducted a joint emergency preparedness exercise on September 22nd of 2010 in the town of Sandy Hook, Connecticut.  This was conducted under the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP).  The operation was conducted out of the Sandy Hook Fire Department, which is located in the immediate vicinity of the Sandy Hook Elementary school, just across the road.  This begs the question:  Is it pure coincidence that two major federal agencies conducted a joint emergency preparedness exercise two years and four months prior to a major event happening at the school?

Arlington, Ohio school district posts information concerning the Sandy Hook tragedy four days prior to the event actually taking place

On December 10th, 2012, a report entitled "Talking with your child about the Sandy Hook Tragedy" was posted on the website for the Arlington, Ohio School District.  The date on which this article was published is most curious, as the Sandy Hook tragedy did not occur until four days later, on December 14th of 2012.  This raises a very serious question:  Why did the Arlington, Ohio School District release a report giving information to parents about how to assist their children in coming to terms with this tragedy a full FOUR DAYS before the event actually took place?
     A link to the official report page on the Arlington School District's website, clearly showing the posting date of December 10th, can be found HERE.  Below is a screen shot of the report.

'Sandy Hook' referenced in the film 'The Dark Knight Rises'

In a rather bizarre turn of events, it appears as though 'Sandy Hook' is given mention in the Hollywood blockbuster film 'The Dark Knight Rises'.  In December of 2011, a viral marketing campaign was released to the public.  Included as part of this campaign was a promotional package that included a complete map of the downtown Gotham area.  On this map, one of the 'Strike Zones' being clearly listed is the area of 'Sandy Hook'.  'Sandy Hook' appears to represent the area of the city in which the Gotham Football Stadium is located which, if one has watched the film, was the very first area of the city targeted by Bane's forces (represented on the map as 'Strike Zone 1').     What is even more curious is the fact that during the film, this city map makes an appearance, but only for a few brief moments.  In the film, the area of the map which can be seen clearly on the screen is the area of 'Sandy Hook'.  Commissioner Gordon, quickly referencing the map in the film, places his hand directly over the area of 'Sandy Hook'.
Information pertaining to the Promotional Campaign can be found HERE.

Media reports on multiple suspects apprehended at the scene

The vast majority of mainstream media reports have stated that Adam Lanza acted alone in committing this tragedy.  

Initial Press Statement from Governor's office and the State Police HERE

Article in the Examiner HERE

However, an eyewitness live on the scene is interviewed and claims that a second suspect was apprehended and placed into a police car.  That footage is HERE.  The exchange between the eyewitness and the reporter was as follows:

Eyewitness:

"I saw him walk a guy earlier with handcuffs, and he walked by us and said he didn't do it.

Reporter: 

"It was a grown man?"

Eyewitness:

"A grown man, yeah.  He's sittin' in the front of the police car over there now."

Reporter:

"He didn't have a gun?"

Eyewitness:

No, I didn't see any gun, just had him handcuffed, and he walked by us and looked into parents eyes and said, "I didn't do it."

Reporter: 

"How was he dressed?"

Eyewitness:

"Camo pants with a dark jacket."

Several mainstream sources have also reported that a second suspect was apprehended at the scene.

"A second man wearing camouflage trousers was seen being handcuffed. One witness described him shouting: “I didn’t do it.”

--from the UK Telegraph HERE

This was confirmed by a child inside the school:  

"One nine-year-old boy said: “I was in the gym. We heard lots of bangs and we thought it was the custodian knocking stuff down. Then we heard screaming. Then police came in and said, 'Is he in here?’ Then they ran out and we went to the closet in the gym and hid. Then we ran to the fire house and saw a guy on the floor in handcuffs. We were just happy to be alive.”

Live video footage of the child being interviewed can be seen HERE.

From CBS News HERE

"CBS News reports that a potential second suspect was in custody and that SWAT was investigating the home of the suspect. It was not known if that alleged second suspect fired any of the shots in the massacre.

A witness tells WFSB-TV that a second man was taken out of the woods in handcuffs wearing a black jacket and camouflage pants and telling parents on the scene, “I did not do it.”

A local news reporter live on the scene also made the statement that he witnessed a man in handcuffs being taken into custody.

Live News Report for News 8 WTNH HERE

And this from Business Insider HERE

"Following the shooting, Police were "questioning a handcuffed suspect in connection with the Newtown school shooting," the Connecticut Post tweeted. A witness told Jany that a man "was led out of the woods by police in handcuffs." Connecticut State Police Lt. J. Paul Vance told reporters that there was only one shooter."

Also this from ABC News HERE
So here we have a child inside the school, a local news reporter on the scene, and an unidentified witness all confirming having seen a second suspect in handcuffs.

Perhaps the most revealing angle of this concerns live aerial footage captured of police officers running in pursuit of a suspect through the woods just outside of Sandy Hook Elementary School.  In the footage, you will see a group of officers gathered around in a circle in the woods surrounding what appears to be an apprehended suspect.  If this is the case, then it appears as though there may be as many as THREE individuals involved in this affair:  The suspect apprehended in the parking lot, the suspect apprehended in the woods, and Adam Lanza, whom we are told shot and killed himself inside the school.  The video footage can be viewed HERE and HERE.  *Note:  It is recommended that you mute the sound when watching this video, as there is a rather irksome 'beeping' sound that accompanies the footage (perhaps something to do with the fact that it was recorded live from a helicopter).
The most important question that must be asked here is this:  Who are these additional suspects, and why, after being taken from the scene in handcuffs, are we told nothing more about them?

Police Scanners capture live feed of multiple suspects apprehended

Perhaps even more revealing than the helicopter video footage is live police scanner audio captured and uploaded onto the internet.  In this audio, the following conversation can be heard taking place between multiple officers:

Officer 1 (dispatch): 

"I have reports that the teacher saw two shadows running past the building, past the gym, which would be rear."

Officer 2 (in pursuit):

"Ya we got 'em."

"They're comin' at me (inaudible).  Comin' up the driveway, left side!"

"(Inaudible) I got 'em proned out." 
**Note:  'Proned out' refers to an apprehended suspect laying face down on the ground

The live feed is available HERE.  The audio in question begins at :48 and ends at 1:34.

This live police scanner feed proves, unequivocally, that multiple suspects were apprehended ON SITE.  Seeing as how the officer refers to 'THEY', meaning more than one, it means that we have multiple suspects apprehended.  When one considers that there was also a suspect (or suspects) apprehended in the woods, it begs the question:  Exactly how many additional possible shooters and/or accomplices were involved in this affair?

Additional suspect spotted in the woods confirmed to be an "off-duty tactical squad police officer"

A report published on December 27th, 2012 in the Newtown Bee confirms that the man seen in the woods brandishing a weapon was in fact an "off-duty tactical police officer from another town".  According to additional reports as well as the aforementioned helicopter footage, there were multiple suspects apprehended on the scene, including a man being chased up into the woods.  Why, one might ask, was an armed, off-duty tactical officer from another town found wandering through the woods just outside of Sandy Hook Elementary School in the immediate aftermath of the shootings?
     This report can be viewed online by clicking HERE.  A screen shot of the second part of this article is posted below (the final line of the report is the one which confirms the suspect's identity).

Van with additional suspects pursued; possibly connected to the shootings

Reports surfaced that a purple/maroon van was being pursued by authorities, possibly in connection with the shootings. 

This from the Mount Pleasant Daily Voice HERE

"Another report said police surrounded a purple van at 33 Crosby St. in Danbury that may be connected to Newtown school shooting."

And this from CBS News HERE

"Police believe there may be a second gunman and are looking for a red or maroon van with its back window blown out, 1010 WINS’ Al Jones reported."

And lastly, the following conversation was posted to the Connecticut Radio Discussion Forum in real-time as the events were unfolding.  The individuals on this network monitor emergency radio scanners, and it was from this network where the aforementioned police scanner audio was pulled (Link HERE)

"Purple van with 2 suspects wearing ski masks one dressed in a nun's outfit, possibly related to this incident, being sought. Last seen in Danbury.
Per CSP, FBI personell on scene."

Manny

"Has there been any chatter on the purple van?"

Edit: "Danbury PD just reported the van near a bagel shop, passenger threw something in the garbage."

The question must then be asked:  Did the authorities apprehend the suspects in this van, and if so, are they in any way connected with this event?

Parents of victims not shown bodies

In the aftermath of the shootings, the parents of the victims were not given access to their childrens' bodies.  Rather, the bodies are said to have been taken from the scene and autopsied at a facility a number of miles away.  In a report published in mainstream publication Independent World News (viewable HERE),

"The parents of the children killed in America's second deadliest mass shooting identified their loved ones from photographs because authorities tried to spare them further agony."

"Dr H Wayne Carver, Connecticut's chief medical examiner, said the decision to use photos of facial features was made to make it "easier on the families".

"Describing the injuries as "probably the worst" he has seen in more than 30 years, Dr Carver said, "we did not bring the bodies and families into contact", when identifying the victims."

Lt. Paul Vance, the lead law enforcement officer in this case, made the following statement on CBS News (viewable HERE):

"The bodies of all of the deceased victims of the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting were positively identified by early Saturday morning, according to Connecticut State Police spokesman Lt. Paul Vance.

Vance shared new details regarding the ongoing investigation Saturday on "CBS This Morning: Saturday," confirming that the families of the victims have been notified, and that the victims' bodies were removed from the school overnight.

"Our objective certainly was to positively identify the victims to try to give the families some closure," he explained. "Our detectives worked well through the night. By early this morning, we were able to positively identify all of the victims and make some formal notification to all of the families of the victims."

Vance added that the removal of the bodies "has been accomplished. That was done overnight, " he said. "We worked very closely with the medical examiner who was on the scene to expedite the process and were able to accomplish that."

What this means if that the victims' families were never allowed access to their childrens' bodies.  The bodies are said to have been identified by police on the scene and then 'notification' was sent to the families.  Additional reports on the release of the bodies to the families has not been published. 
 

Reports surface that Nancy Lanza was not an employee of the school

On Saturday morning, December 15th, Dr. Janet Robinson, Superintendent of the Newtown Public Schools, was interviewed on the Today Show.  During this interview, Dr. Robinson is questioned about Nancy Lanza, the mother of Adam Lanza.  She makes the following statement:

"We have no Nancy Lanza in our database.  She may have been a substitute teacher but in terms of being a full-time employee, she is not...they asked me to look in the database to see if she was a teacher."

Report HERE

Also this from Yahoo News HERE

And this from the Wall Street Journal HERE

However, this information contradicts earlier reports which state that,

"The gunman walked into his mother Nancy Lanza’s classroom at around 9.30am and opened fire. It was unclear whether she died in the classroom, or earlier at her nearby home."

--from the UK Telegraph HERE

Also this from ABC News:

"According to ABC News, the shooter's mother, Nancy Lanza, worked at the school as a teacher's aide."

Report HERE

And this from CBC World News:

"At least one parent said that his mother, Nancy Lanza, was a substitute teacher at the school, but her name did not appear on a staff list, The AP reported."

Report HERE

Media reports that five guns were used in the assault and that 100 rounds were fired

"A mother who was in a meeting with the principal and half a dozen other people at about 9.30am described having heard a “pop pop pop” in the hallway.  The witness described cowering under a table and said that 100 rounds or more might have been fired. Two bodies were seen in the hallway in a pool of blood and children had to run past."

--from the UK Telegraph HERE

And this from CNN HERE

The Today Show went on to report that 'State and Federal Officials' had released a statement confirming that a total of FIVE weapons were recovered at the scene:  Four handguns and an assault rifle.  The handguns were said to have been recovered inside the school, whereas the assault rifle is said to have been recovered inside Adam Lanza's car.  

Report HERE
NBC News released a report stating stating that both 'State and Federal Officials' confirm having found four handguns inside the school, but that the assault rifle was found in the shooter's car.  That report, along with video footage of law enforcement authorities removing the 'long weapon' from the trunk of the shooter's car, can be viewed HERE.

This, however, contradicts reports given by the chief medical examiner, who stated that,

"All the victims at the school were shot with a rifle."

--from ABC News HERE

And from CBS HERE

"The Associated Press reported that more guns were found inside of the school and that state and federal authorities were tracing them."

Additional reports surfaced that Adam Lanza was wearing a bullet-proof vest. 

--from ABC News HERE

And other media outlets report that Adam Lanza was dressed in full camouflage. 

"The first law enforcement source says the school shooter was dressed in "black battle fatigues and a military vest."

"The suspect reportedly went into the elementary school at 9:40 a.m. EST dressed in camouflage and armed with two guns. He then opened fire with a .223-caliber rifle, according to Newtown law enforcement."

*The second of these two statements is particularly revealing, as again, many of the media outlets are stating that Adam Lanza left the assault rifle in his car.

--from CNN HERE and also HERE
And lastly:  The same CNN report states the following:

"Before entering the classroom, the shooter reportedly confronted the school’s female principal. The two were having a verbal altercation when the principal turned on the PA system to alert the school about what was going on, according to an unconfirmed ABC News report."

What this means is that Adam, carrying as many as five weapons, including a high-powered assault rifle, and dressed in black battle fatigues as well as a bullet-proof vest, confronted the principal before opening fire.  After having an argument, Adam apparently walked away and the principal went over the PA system to announce what was happening.  At what point then did Adam murder the principal? 

All of this raises a legitimate concern:  Four handguns, a high-powered assault rifle, a bullet-proof vest, and camouflage/black battle fatigues are an astounding amount of gear for a 20-year-old young man with autism to have in his possession.  Media reports have surfaced which state that all of this gear was registered under his mother's name.  Once again, according to reports, Nancy Lanza may or may not have been a teacher at the school.  If so, then the question must be asked:  Why is a purported elementary school teacher in possession of such an enormous arsenal of assault gear, including a semi-automatic military rifle?

Photo showing three of the five firearms purported to have been used by Adam Lanza
--from the N.Y. Daily News HERE

As this story continues to develop, more details will be forthcoming.  We must all keep a vigilant eye on this story, most especially on the angle concerning the additional suspects apprehended on the scene.  In the meantime, please take a moment of silence for all of those poor souls who have died as a result of this massacre:  The teachers, the children, and Adam Lanza himself.  Yes, that's right, Adam Lanza:  A 20-year-old young man with Asperger's Syndrome and obsessive compulsive/personality disorder, a shy and reclusive loner, withdrawn from the world and called a 'nerd' and a 'goth' by certain people in the community.  We must ask ourselves:  How in the world is it possible for a man so young, (and, according to most reports, quite intelligent), to attain so many 'labels' in only the first twenty years of his life, and then somehow suddenly fly off the deep end and go on a shooting spree with thousands of dollars worth of assault gear, killing more than two dozen innocent women and children, as well as himself, in the process?

Mapping the Real Deal…
The Real Deal About Enron

... an interview with Scoop Real Deal Columnist Catherine Austin Fitts
Part Seven Of Seven Parts
By Daniel Armstrong*
Originally Published By Sanders Research Associates [*Daniel Armstrong is a writer and novelist based in Eugene, Oregon. Mr. Armstrong is a graduate of Princeton University and attended the University of Oregon School of Journalism.]

If my years working on the clean up of BCCI and the S&L crisis taught me one thing that I would communicate today to the shareholders, retirees and employees who have been harmed, it is this: people like those on the board of Enron absolutely make money from insider trading, bid rigging and fraud, and they do so with help from the highest levels.

In Part One, we introduced Catherine Austin Fitts and described some of her experiences in taking on the criminal powers who lie behind the modern U.S. Governmental apparatus. The Interview transcript follows in
Part Two , Part Three , Part Four , Part Five and Part Six )
************************* CONTINUATION LINE:
CAF: So what do we do? Essentially, we have to re­engineer our economy from a negative return on investment to a positive return on investment. At the heart of that is re­engineering government investment, credit and regulation by place.
If every neighborhood in America took a look at the sources and uses of all federal, state and local government resources and started to re­engineer those resources place by place, we could leverage our current capital base by many multiples. During the 1990's, I prototyped approximately $12 billion of transactions that gave me the detailed pricing information needed to build a conceptual framework of how to do this by financing communities with equity in a way that makes money for all the parties involved including business, investors, and community. This was what Hamilton Securities prototyped at Edgewood Terrace with our software Community Wizard.
This is my solari model, a win­win alignment between people, environment and money. Such an alignment can unleash astonishing amounts of new wealth. So now that a few have used new technology to steal all of America's retirement savings while the rest of us let it happen, it is time for the natural leaders among us to use new technology to re­engineer our concrete economy and create new wealth to reduce our addiction for more borrowing and debt and to fulfill our financial obligations to each other.
Two months ago, I published a two part series with Sanders Research Associates in London that describe what I learned from the prototyping effort about where the opportunities lie---''The Myth of the Rule of Law or How the Money Works: The Destruction of Hamilton Securities Group''---and my vision of how we are going to capture that value as investors and entrepreneurs­ "Solari & the Rise of the Rule of Law.''
For those who are interested in profitable transformation that can make our neighborhoods safe again, create new jobs or replace our retirement and pension losses, you can link to both articles from my website at http://www.solari.com.
After many years and many billions of transactions and investments, my childhood intuition has been affirmed. The honest folks can make more money healing a community than the powers that be made destroying it. As this was true for West Philadelphia where I grew up, it's true for all of America today.
EPILOGUE [By Daniel Armstrong]: It is important for all of us to understand the Enron bankruptcy as well as we can. It affected a huge portion of the nation. Thousands of jobs were lost. Enron employee 401K plans were stripped. Many large investment portfolios, nearly every state pension plan and all variety of special retirement packages public and private were laced with the failing Enron stock. Investment brokerages continued to tout Enron even as they knew the tides had turned---and a sudden insider sell off would drop a $90 stock to mere pennies.
Literally hundreds of thousands of Americans suffered grave hits on nest eggs they'd put a life's work into, sending, in some cases, retired folk back to the streets looking for jobs. One of the world's largest accounting services Arthur Andersen came tumbling down for its part in the disaster. The entire California energy grid was manipulated for vicious levels of profit.
Lies were told to the public and the government about the whys and wherefores of rolling brownouts. It wasn't just greedy Enron managers stealing money. It wasn't just stock market fraud. It was the abuse of immense public trust and responsibility. And for what we have seen in news reports, it resulted from the collusion of Enron executives and board members, lawyers, sever­ al influential banks, regulatory officers, and an unknown quantity of political compliance. For all of us, it demands an explanation.
I spoke to Catherine Austin Fitts for the expressed purpose of trying to find this explanation. In the end, she told me more than I was really prepared to accept. More than Enron, more than Arthur Anderson, the entire US government was riddled with fraud, incomplete balance sheets, and syndicated operations. It was too much to comprehend. In the days after the interview, however, I tried to sort it out. That is, put the entire Enron fiasco in a perspective that fit with my world­view. The following was my assessment:
Superficially, the Enron bankruptcy looks pretty much like a passing pump­and­dump scheme, orchestrated by a handful of inside managers. A closer look, and we see the part played by outside investors, stock brokerage hypes, accounting firms, and a fair measure of bank compliance. Indeed, it's not such a far stretch to say this little energy market con game was manipulated from the outside through a handful of pasty insiders, with Ken Lay at the top.
While those Enron managers and accountants take the rap, and perhaps lose their illegal profits, the real money will be going to a tight clique of enlightened investors, benefactors watching from three or four shells deeper within the game, selling really big numbers of stock at precisely the right time.
But it's not until you put this scandal in the context of other major scandals since the Reagan Presidency--- I hesitate to venture any further back than that---do you see something even larger maneuvering in the back­ ground, influencing politicians, pulling legislative strings, like the deregulation of the energy market, and producing glowing business reports from Ivy League Colleges. As hard as it is to believe, or maybe as much as we don't want to believe it, the same corporate relationships appear over and over again in various combinations through the S&L crisis, the HUD robberies, the BCCI scandal, the Iran/Contra arms for drugs heist, and this bankruptcy in Houston---and always with the acquiescence of America's biggest banks.
So, it's military contractors. It's oil men/energy traders, and it's the information technology industry, all roiled together with a few staunch and formal pin­striped suits from Wall Street and the banking industry. The United States Treasury sits in the background like the Sphinx---a giant obscuring financial slush fund---with a federal accounting system that makes Enron/Andersen's books look as clear as crystal. Three trillion missing government dollars at last count. How could anyone think a system this loose could be honest?
Now let's take a step back from here. Let's take yet another look at this thing, this network of bankers, defense contractors, energy­trading oilmen, and greased politicians that Ms. Fitts describes. Dwight Eisenhower had a name for it: the Military­Industrial Complex. It almost sounds like a joke it's so over­used. But unfortunately, it's not a joke. Ms. Fitts has drawn a picture of it for us, or at least in broad strokes, one tentacle of the ever-changing creature.
A loose affiliation of millionaires and billionaires all interlocked and sustaining the military weapons industry and dictating foreign policy both overt ­ through Congress - and covert ­ through operational fraud profits. I know, I fight the cliché, but the truth is there is a network of good­old­boy weapons makers and communications experts whose contracts are the richest in the world. Lockheed­Martin, DynCorp. Raytheon­Hughes, McDonnell Douglas­Boeing. They go through the biggest banks. Citigroup, Morgan­Chase, the Bank of New York.
Their books are cooked by the biggest accountants. Arthur Andersen, PriceWaterhouse. They are assisted by the intelligence community. They own big pieces of the media, and they build the world's most powerful military. They represent the muscle end of the equation of control of the planet, and especially since 9/11, they exercise huge sway over the U.S. government. Like the 800­pound gorilla, they do pretty much whatever they please. The Military­Industrial Complex or the Iron Triangle, as it is also called, is real and it's powerful; and as evidenced by the actions of this one tentacle---the Enron bankruptcy---it is full of corruption and fraud. It might more accurately be called a criminal syndicate than a complex of common business interests. This is my opinion.
Of course, there are some that would say this industrial syndicate is what makes America strong. And it surely does that. Some would say that is it simply good business, businessmen networking for success. And there are some that would say this syndicate protects the manifold freedoms of the United States. And perhaps, in a strained way, it does. But there are others who would say that this syndicate acts as a shadow government, sucks up our taxes, sustains itself by making war anywhere on the globe, and prevents the possibility of worldwide peace and equality.
We all must come to our own conclusion whether the Military­ Industrial Complex is friend or foe. In any case, Catherine Austin Fitts' commentary reveals that, at the very least, the people behind it are dangerous and criminally ambitious. The Enron scandal suggests that the creature has also heavily infiltrated the present presidential administration and that the very highest powers in the United States are orchestrating a cover-up because of that.
Forty-five years after Ike's first warning, it is clear the checks are out of balance. If we really live in a democracy that's free and run by the people for the people, it's time we hold our leaders and ourselves accountable. It won't be easy. Catherine Austin Fitts' story demonstrates what happens to people who do. Though Catherine Austin Fitts has made it through the gauntlet with her credibility stronger than ever and a shot a recovering her fortune, most do not. Perhaps the time has come to support the people who do and try restructuring our world from the inside out.

Alien Smokescreen

- by Paul & Phillip D. Collins ©, June 17th, 2007// http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/Commentary/Alien_Smokescreen.htm

An interesting addition is being made to Area 51. A new hangar that is almost twice the size of Hangar 18 is being constructed at the top secret testing facility for experimental aircraft ("Large New Hangar at Area 51," no pagination). The construction is located SE of the South Ramp and is an estimated size of 200x500 feet and roughly 100 feet tall (no pagination). Although the sides of the structure are unfinished, a huge hangar door is visible from the side facing the flight line (no pagination). Evidently, Area 51 is expanding its business. But, just what is the base's business? Of course, theories abound. Even more abundant are myths.

When investigating Area 51, one must wade through a sea of disinformation, rumors, and legends. Perhaps the most popular claim regarding Area 51 is that the installation houses an extraterrestrial biological entity and "reverse engineered" alien technology. The 1997 documentary film Area 51: The Alien Interview helped to invigorate this belief. This film featured footage of an alleged alien inside a glass "bio-containment area" ("Area 51: The Alien Interview," Wikipedia: The Free Encyclopedia, no pagination). The video runs for approximately two minutes and 55 seconds with no audio (no pagination). It concludes with the alien convulsing violently and being aided by two heavily outfitted medics (no pagination).
Although the video seemed to satisfy UFO researchers like Michael Hesemann and Robert Dean, it did raise suspicions with Hollywood special effects wizard John Criswell and image analyst Jim Dilettso (no pagination). However, what is most suspicious is the source of the footage, a man identifying himself only as "Victor." Victor claimed that the ultimate motive was to inform the public about the "truth" regarding UFOs (no pagination). Yet, simultaneously, he insisted on being paid for the rights to air the video, contending that he needed "some small measure of monetary freedom" to counter the potential consequences of his revelations concerning UFO secrecy (no pagination).
Given these oddities surrounding the purported "alien interview," one might wonder if Victor's revelation was motivated by something far more sinister than monetary gain. What if Area 51 is not in the UFO business at all? What if Victor's video was fabricated to merely reinforce that presupposition? If this is the case, then what is Area 51's true purpose? Many seeking the answer to this question might try searching through apocryphal UFO documents, such as Majestic 12. However, the answer is more likely to be found in the records of the Federal Aviation Administration (F.A.A.).
According to the F.A.A.'s records, a C-123K cargo plane, serial number 54-0679, was shot down over Nicaragua (Denton and Morris, no pagination). Inside the plane, the Sandinistas not only found arms intended for the Contras, but also discovered logs that linked the C-123K to Area 51 (no pagination). Looking into this plane's background leads one to the CIA's doorstep. The plane was leased by Southern Air Transport, a CIA front company ("Barry Seal," no pagination). The plane's surviving crew member, Eugene Hasenfus, was a cargo handler for the Central Intelligence Agency. It was his admissions that would lead to the Iran-Contra scandal breaking wide open (Denton and Morris, no pagination).
Months before the plane was shot down, its original owner, Barry Seal, had been murdered. Barry Seal was known as America's most successful drug smuggler, and many believe that his murder was a gangland hit. After all, Seal did bring drugs into America on behalf of the Medellin Cartel. However, there is a body of evidence that effectively refutes this contention. When asked if Barry Seal feared that the Ochoa crime family would kill him, Seal's good friend Rene Martin explained that Seal did not fear the Colombians because he did not implicate senior organization members (Hopsicker 377). So, who had the motive to kill Seal? According to Seal's lawyer, Lewis Unglesby, Seal had expressed a willingness to testify against George Bush (376).
The truth is that Seal was working for the CIA. Former CIA pilot Tosh Plumlee, claims that Seal's relationship with the CIA began as far back as the 1950s. In an interview, Plumlee stated:

"Barry Seal was involved with military intelligence in the early days... Military intelligence was the real game, with the CIA just acting as logistical people. Barry was a peripheral player back then, but he was a CIA 'contract' pilot all the way back to 1956 or 1957." (113)

Plumlee also told Hopsicker that Seal had been involved with none other than the Blond Ghost himself, CIA officer Ted Shackley:

"Barry Seal did a lot of damn good stuff in the late 60's," CIA pilot Tosh Plumlee told us. "In 67 and 68 he was with Air America in South Vietnam and Laos doing Search and Destroy and Special Ops with Ted Shackley's boys. He'd been recruited for Special Ops because of the 'Cuban thing.'" (156)

In an interview with investigative researcher Daniel Hopsicker, CIA contract agent Gary Hemming even claimed that Seal was part of the infamous, CIA-sponsored project known as Operation 40 (143). Seal also worked with Sonia Atala, a drug baron whose operations were protected by the CIA, according to former DEA agent (254). It is more likely that Seal was killed by people connected to America's intelligence community than drug dealers with the Medellin Cartel. Barry Seal's secretary, Dandra Seale, believed that the government was responsible for his death. In an interview with Daniel Hopsicker, Dandra stated: "The CIA people here allowed it to happen. He had a chart, he had dirt on anybody and everybody" (368).
Daniel Hopsicker conducted an investigation to find out who directed the Seal hit. This led him to Richard Sharpstein, a prominent Miami defense attorney who represented three of convicted assassins. Hopsicker's interview with Sharpstein pointed to Oliver North as the culprit. Hopsicker elaborates:

"I represented Miguel Velez for the Barry Seal homicide, which was one of the most incredible experiences I have ever been through," Sharpstein began. "It was an amazing experience. Nobody wanted to think about what any of this meant back in 1986. The implications were just too big. And I'm only speaking with you now because some of this has leaked out. All three of the Colombians who went on trial always told us - their lawyers - that they were being directed, after they got into this country, on what to do and where to go by an 'anonymous gringo,' a United States Military officer, who they quickly figured out was Oliver North," Sharpstein says.
"Say that again?" we asked. We were sure we'd heard it right the first time; we just needed confirmation. . . "Once they rendezvoused together in the States," explained Sharpstein, "they, the Colombians, were being directed, by phone, by a man who insisted on remaining anonymous, but who did identify himself as being an officer in the American military. . . They were put in touch with this officer through Rafa (a Colombian smuggler) who was the guy my client worked for. And they all believed that it was Oliver North." (372)

Why would Ollie North direct the execution of Barry Seal? Could the fact that congressional investigators found no less than 500 references to drugs in North's notebooks (those he did not shred) have something to do with it (Hopsicker 4)? The truth is that our own government has been in on the trafficking of drugs for quite some time now. There are many reasons for this involvement. Drug money helps prop up a precarious, unstable national economy. Drug money helps fund covert operations that Congress and Americans would frown upon. However, the most sinister reason was provided by deceased researcher Jim Keith in his Casebook on Alternative 3:

…there is a war going on worldwide which at one level has nothing to do with drugs, although it can be sold to the public, particularly the American public, on the basis of suppression of drugs. By simultaneously creating anti-drug legislation and fostering drug trade (mirroring the operation that took place in America during Prohibition), international manipulators obtain both a rationalization for that war and for the increased police penetration of society and suppression of political freedoms. The fundamental game is not traffic in drugs, but the traffic in human lives and energy, the buying, selling and herding of cattle-resources. It boils down to the ultimate master/slave relationship with the master in a continual struggle for profits and to keep the people uninformed, sated, mindless, utilized. The "host," be it animal, human or planet, is anesthetized, then drained by its parasitic self-styled masters. And then the ravaged hulk is discarded. (99-100)

Is all the talk about aliens at Area 51 merely a smokescreen? Has Area 51 been involved in the same intelligence-connected drug smuggling operation that Barry Seal participated in? It would not be the first time that criminal activity was conducted at Area 51 under a national security pretext. In 1994, the Air Force and the Environmental Protection Agency were sued by five unnamed civilian contractors and the widows of contractors Robert Frost and Walter Kasza (Stahl, no pagination). These contractors claimed to be at Groom Lake when unknown chemicals were burned in open pits and trenches there (no pagination). George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley took on the contractors' case (no pagination). Biopsies were conducted on the complainants and analyzed by biochemists at Rutgers University (no pagination). The biopsies revealed high levels of dioxin, trichloroethylene, and dibenzofuran in the contractors' body fat (no pagination).
The complainants claimed that exposure to the chemicals at Groom Lake had resulted in liver, skin, and respiratory damage (no pagination). Worse still, the complainants claimed that the chemicals had even contributed to the deaths of Kasza and Frost (no pagination). The survivors wanted compensation, alleging that the USAF had illegally handled toxic chemicals in violation of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (no pagination). The survivors also claimed that the EPA was guilty of turning its head the other way (no pagination).
The complainants required more information about the chemicals so that they could seek medical treatment for their injuries (no pagination). However, the government claimed that revealing classified information concerning the chemicals burnt at the Groom would threaten national security. In an interview with Leslie Stahl of 60 Minutes, Lee H. Hamilton, who had been the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, stated: "The Air Force is classifying all information about Area 51 in order to protect themselves from a lawsuit" (no pagination). When the case went before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, Secretary of the Air Force Sheila E. Widnall claimed information about materials in the air could not be revealed, alleging that such exposure could "reveal military operational capabilities or the nature and scope of classified operations" ("US 9th Circuit ruling on Kasza V Browner and related case Frost V Perry, Lake, Widnall," no pagination).
If the government is willing to hide the fact that toxic materials were burnt at Area 51, then it would certainly try to conceal evidence of intelligence-connected drug smuggling at Area 51 as well. What better way is there to hide such a revelation than spreading disinformation about Greys from Zeta-Reticuli collaborating with the government at Area 51? Behind the alien smokescreen may lurk a story of guns, drugs, and intelligence crimes.

ADOLPH HITLER'S QUEST FOR ATLANTIS AND THE GRAIL: THE FUTURE ANTICHRIST CONNECTION



http://www.angelfire.com/alt2/antichrist/hitler.html

Hitler's Search for the Holy Grail 1

The Gateway to Atlantis crosses not only space, but time. Atlantis was the highest achievement of man, as the Greek philosophers attest, and though aeons have passed since its fall, man has yet to regain its wisdom. Atlantis and the Cycles of Time Toward the end of the nineteenth century a sinister Order of New Templars was estabished in Germany and Austria, employing the Swastika as one of the emblems. Figures like H.P. Blavatsky, founder of Theosophy, and Rudolf Steiner, founder of Anthroposophy spoke of an esoteric "wisdom tradition" running back through the Rosicrucians to the Cathars and Templars who were purportedly repositories of more ancient secrets still..." Secrets of the Code p. 181-182 The work of the astrologer and "Atlantologist" Paul Le Cour whose 1937 book The Age of Aquarius (L'ere du Verseau) greatly influenced the New Age movement there is no suggestion he was personally involved in Alpha Galates. It should be remembered that such "alternative" ideas can crucially influence the real world - after all, similar notions lay at the root of Nazi idealogy, even inspiring the [Nazi] Party's meteoric rise to power in Germany. The Sion Revelation p. 75 In part, Hitler's program was aided by beliefs that evolved into an obsession with the Occult. The Ahnenerbe, an arm of the SS commissioned in the mid-1930s to research the ancestral heritage of the Aryan race, roamed far and wide...to provide scientific documentation that would unite their ancient past with their destiny. Heinrich Himmler saw the men in his army as the reincarnation of Teutonic knights and kings, in particular the Knights of King Arthur's Round Table. He designed Wewelsburg Castle to be their Camelot, but Peter Levendra in The Unholy Alliance dubbed it 'that Satanic Vatican' http://www.crimelibrary.com/criminal_mind/psychology/evil1/2.html In one of the few direct references to the Fuhrer, in the Jan. 1943 edition, Plantard wrote, "I want Hitler's Germany to know that every hindrance to our projects [of the Great Work] undermines it, as the resistance of Freemasonry ruins German's strength." He seems to have meant this as a warning to the German occupiers not to impede the Order. (It is true that the Nazi's appear to have been suspicious about Vaincre and Alpha Galates.) The Alpha Galates Order [being Merovingian promoters of their time] seems to have been playing down, if not actually concealing its synarchist credentials. Why? Perhaps the answer will lie in an examination of how synarchy transformed itself between two world wars into something very shady and sinister indeed. The Sion Revelation p. 77, 357 [The Royal Dragon Court and Order] terms its descendants Dragons and associates "Adam" humanity with the Aryan race, claiming that Aryan means "wise and noble race" although he is quick to distance this from the Nazi's beloved Aryan "master race" [as] DeVere dismisses the Nazi's as "German peasants" of inferior genetic stock to the real Aryans [the Merovingians, etc.] The Sion Revelation p. 286

SATAN'S ANCIENT WEAPONS OF WAR COVETED BY ADOLPH HITLER One hundred years after Adolf Hitler's birth near Linz in Austria on April 20 1889, and decades after his malign empire metastasized in Bavaria in Bavaria, the Hitler phenomenon remains to mainstream historians largely inexplicable, or at least unexplained. The man and his awful work seem to stand outside history looking in. Perhaps our human fear of the irrational is so great that we instinctively hold Hitler at a great remove in order that we need not admit him to our company. In light of this it isn't very surprising that an extensive literature exists seeking an occult rationale for the otherwise baffling catastrophe Hitler represents. As Louis Pauwels and Jacques Bergier point out in the Morning of the Magicians(1960), the Nazi era simply defies conventional analysis: A self taught madman, surrounded by a handful of megalomaniacs,rejects Descartes, spurns the whole humanist culture, tramples on reason, invokes Lucifer, conquers Europe, and nearly conquers the world. The historian begins to feel anxious and to wonder whether his art is viable. Pauwels and Bergier were among the first postwar proponents of a black magical explanation for the Third Reich. About a quarter of their book is devoted to a region they call "The Absolute Elsewhere," a neverland where Nazi pseudosciences and Occult methodology held official sway, something wholly different from the Western tradition: "there is a Nordic and National Socialist science which is opposed to Jewish-Liberal science". In place of psychology there was an Occult frappe composed of the mysticism of Gurdijeff, the theosophy of Madame Blavatsky and the archetypes of Nordic mythology. In place of Newtonian physics stood the cosmic force called vril, the bizarre geology known as the hollow earth theory, and the frigid cosmology of Hans Horbiger's Welteislehre, the doctrine of "eternal ice." Nevertheless, Nazi science was influential out of all proportion to its objective validity, i.e, its philosophy in which solar forces of light represented by blond, fair-skinned Aryans strive against the evil forces of darkness in the world, who are of course the dark-haired Semites of Sethite origin collectively called Jews. Add to this, all of the Occult information surrounding the Grail relics by which the Aryans could defeat the Semites and those who support them certainly led their later importance in the Occult Hitlerian mindset, not to mention all of these ideas being confirmed by a Viennese exile named Dr. Walter Johannes Stein. Dr. Stein spent much of the war as a British secret agent, but before that time he was a scholar who employed white magical means to clairvoyantly investigate historical events. It was his book on the Grail mythos published in Stuttgart in 1928 and titled The Ninth Century: World History in the Light of the Holy Grail that attracted Mr. Ravenscroft to him. During that time, Ravenscroft writes, Dr. Stein was pursuing his Occult researches as a student at the University of Vienna and getting to know Hitler, then a dropout. At the time, Vienna was during Hitler's years, a vortex of modern thinking. Ludwig Wittgenstein was in residence pondering avant garde philosophy and metaphysics; Gustav Mahler had returned home to die and to name his protege, Arnold Schonberg. In contrast there persisted the deep anti-Semitic currents that had caused Mahler to convert to Catholicism, that forced Freud eventually to flee to London. It was in Vienna where Hitler frequented a certain Occult lodge led by an old Black Magickian whose appearance was befitting the classical vision of Merlin, and whose Occult lodge, Ravenscroft said, substituted the Swastika for the Cross. His link to Hitler was allegedly through an Occult bookseller, Ernst Pretzche, in whose shop the future Fuhrer had also found a second home. In the shop Dr. Stein found a copy of Wolfram von Eschenbach's Parzival, the medieval Grail romance that Dr. Stein was himself researching for his work on the ninth century. In the book's margins were handwritten annotations; looking them over Dr. Stein was fascinated and repelled: This was no ordinary commentary but the work of somebody who had achieved more than a working knowledge of the Black Arts. The unknown commentator had found the key to unveiling many of the deepest secrets of the Grail, yet obviously spurned the Christian ideals of the Knights and delighted in the devious machinations of the Anti-Christ. It suddenly dawned on him that he was reading the footnotes of Satan. The footnotes, proved to have been Hitler's. Soon afterward, Stein and Hitler saw the Spear of Destiny on display together in the Imperial Museum at the Hofburg. Stein had been there before and had never failed to be moved by the sight of the old relic, supposed to have the original spear by which the Roman centurion, Longinus, pierced the side of Christ during the crucifixation. Longinus was a German conscript of the Roman legion and his "Spear of Destiny" indeed played a magical role in the careers of later European despots and Empire-uniting Antichrist archetypes, like Charlemagne, Otto the Great, Frederick Barbarossa, and Napolean, all of them holding the deep belief that whoever is in possession of the Spear, will conquer the world and successfully stay in power, for one-thousand years. Dr. Stein said the Spear inspired in him the emotion expressed in the motto of the Arthurian Knights of the Holy Grail, and found he was not the only one completely taken by the relic. Adolf Hitler often stood beside him, like a man in a trance, he described as an evil transfiguration of its own nature and power, whenever Hitler stood in the presence of the one object in all Creation believed by Occultists and Satanists alike to have been the weapon that killed Christ. As some have it, the spearhead itself is made out of a metal-like property of unknown origin and past yet forged in Hell to carry out a single task. Armed with the knowledge of his black spiritual ancestry, Ravenscroft writes, Hitler left Austria and moved to Germany, joined the Bavarian Army, survived the hellish trench warfare on the western front, won the Iron Cross, and got discharged in Munich where he then encountered the men who were to invent National Socialism. Virtually every study of Hitler's time in Munich mentions the Thule Society, which met often and openly at a local metropolitan hotel and for a time and soon counted Hitler as a member. The name of the organization derived from the unknown northern land believed to be the original home of the Aryan race. The symbol of the Thule Society was a Swastika with a dagger enclosed in laurel leaves. Believed by outsiders to be a literary club devoted to the study of Nordic culture, was in fact a secret political organization devoted to violent anti-Semitism, genocidal ideas, and rule by an hierarchical elite. Behind the scenes, Thule members were rumored to be considerably more sinister than anyone else outside of even knew. Robert Payne, whose excellent Hitler biography contains no Occult explanationss whatsoever, even describes the Thule Society as the center of the right-wing opposition to the brief Bavarian post-war socialist coup under the intellectual Kurt Eisner and yet who believed in eugenics and even more radical experiments toward the evolution of the German race, as a means of state policy and racial purity as the destiny of the forgotten Aryan race. Most of the Occult historians of the era believe the Thule Society operated on a deeper level still, a level headed by a mysterious figure called Dietrich Eckart. Goodrick-Clarke calls Eckart Hitler's Occult mentor in the early days of the Nazi Party, along with Rudolf Hess and Alfred Rosenberg. Eckart assertedly organized Kurt Eisner's assassination and personally chose Hitler to lead the Aryan race back to supremacy. Ravenscroft writes that Hitler had been prepared for Satanic initiation by his many experiences in Vienna. He also says that the techniques Dietrich Eckart used were in part derived from the sexual magic of Aleister Crowley. In 1912 this famed British magician was named IX British head of a secret Berlin lodge called Ordo Templi Orientis which practiced various forms of sexual magic. Ravenscroft writes "there can be little doubt" that both Crowley and Eckart conducted deep studies of the Arabian astrological magic performed by Klingsor's real life counterpart, Landulf II. It was to Sicily-then a Moslem stronghold-that Landulf fled after his traitorous links to Islam were disclosed. And it was in a dark tower in the mountains of the southwest corner of that island that his evil soul festered with additional bitterness over his castration by the relatives of a noblewoman he had raped. There he practiced sadistic Satanism of a nature that foreshadowed the horrors of Nazi concentration camps. If the legends that have come down from these dark centuries of European history are true, these rituals carried out at Kalot Enbolot included terrible tortures such as the slitting open of the stomach of sacrificial victims and the slow drawing open of the stomach of sacrificial victims and the slow drawing of their entrails, the driving of stakes through the orifices of their bodies before disembowelling them, and the invoking of Spirits of Darkness (incubis) to rape young virgins kidnapped from their families. It was from his studies of the power available to practitioners of such perversities that Eckart devised the rituals he used when he "opened the centers of Adolf Hitler to give him a vision of and a means of communication with the Powers." Ravenscroft concludes, though he declines to furnish the full details: "Suffice it to say that they were indescribably sadistic and ghastly." Having done his worst, Eckart soon died, proudly advising those around him: "Follow Hitler! he will dance, but it is I who have called the tune! I have initiated him into the Secret Doctrine, and opened his centers of vision and given him the means to communicate with the Powers. Do not mourn for me: I shall have influenced history more than any other German." Shortly before the war, it was Himmler who was granted charge over a new SS faction called Ahnenerbe (the Ancestral Heritage Society). Ahnenerbe recruited many of Germany's top scientists, archaeologists, and scholars who mounted archaeological and anthropological expeditions throughout Tibet and Palestine, given the unique task in Hitler's occult plan to find traces of an ancient pre-Aryan master race which linked Atlantis to Germany. To Hitler, this term of pre-Aryan was ultimately rooted in an Aryan, historical Atlantis, he believing modern Aryans to be direct descendants of the lost Atlantic continent, the Solar Man who would bring back a Golden Age and unite the world. Researching Aryan (Satanic) doctrines further, you are taken into some detail about the mystical nation called Atlantis as it becomes overwhelmingly clear that Hitler actually believed he was reviving the legendary continent, and with that, become the first King of its New Age, fulfilling his own Aryan destiny given him by his Ascended Masters. Scholars are now convinced that Hitler and the Nazi party were influenced in these very bizarre ideas about Aryan Bloodlines, 'root races,' Vril, Atlantis, its unseen Overlords, runes, talismans and relics of great power, and other such theories of the Occult through the enigmatic writings of such authors as Edmund Kis (Fruehling in Atlantis) as well as Helena Blavatsky (The Secret Doctrine) which details a spirit race of beings from Atlantis guiding man's destiny from the frozen northern regions who later descended upon India, Tibet, with Germany also being included into the supreme race known as the Aryan. This, along with the writings of Bulwer-Lytton's notions of a hollow earth and Vril society completely shaped Hitler's Aryan (Luciferian) world view, further emblazoned his hatred of the Jews, and later influenced his own book Mein Kamph. Hitler attempted nothing less than to usurp the heraldry, ancestry, and authority of the Merovingian dynasty and recreate a new Aryan Solar-Man upon the earth in accordance with the will of the Ascended Masters. He adopted the ancient Sun symbol and Mark of the Swastika - the Luciferian symbol of the Sun, whose Occult number is equated with 666 and led many to believe Hitler was in fact, their Messiah. Helping him with this effort, he believed, was the finding of certain ancient artifacts of Occult power that are prophesied in Aryan lore to bestow upon its owner the Divine Right to be King of the world, the last Rex Mundi. Hitler and his Ahnenerbe wasted no time in searching the globe for remnants of the Lost Continent of Atlantis, as well as anything however vaguely connected to his theories regarding supposed "Aryan lore." Since many of these objects were also on the Templar/Crusaders list to find, some have speculated the Nazi's saw themselves as the New Templar Crusaders to restore balance and bring forth a lost age when Man and the God's were one. These objects included the Ark of the Covenant, the Spear of Destiny (Lucifer?), the Holy Grail (Emerald of Lucifer), the 13 Crystal Skulls (of Lucifer's Atlantis), the Emerald Tablets of Thoth (Lucifer) which according to the Occult Nazi doctrine, were the very objects of pre-Aryan (Atlantean) society which would give the Nazi war machine complete victory as they set forth to conquer the world. Once found by Ahnenerbe, the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant, and every other relic of Occult/Christian power were to be placed in one central location. In 1934, Himmler selected a 17th century gothic castle fortress known as Wewelsburg Castle (see the middle of this document). It and the city which was planned around it was ultimately envisioned as serving as a future Holy City of an 'SS' Supertate - a kind of Satanic Jerusalem. The planned town which was to be built around the castle was to radiate outwards in concentric circles (as seen in depictions of Plato's Atlantis) with the castle at its center. Within the Wewelsburg Castle itself, which was built upon an ancient Teutonic crypt, was a 12,000 volume library of rare Aryan runic lore, several medieval shrines, with entire wings devoted to ancient Teutonic Knights, as well as devotion to Aryan Gods such as Thor, Loki, and other mythic gods of Nordic light and darkness. Occult symbolism was rampant throughout, in and everywhere around the castle were to be found magickal Nordic Runes which supposedly further gave this one place on earth every Occult power imaginable. Within the very center and lowest part of the castle was the secret plan to build a "Round Table room" which would house the aforementioned relics of power, where twelve pure-blooded SS "Knights" would meet and draw upon the combined Occult energy, and radiate it outwards in an unstoppable God-like destructive force against their global enemies. The Messianic Fuhrer, Adolph Hitler, completely insane with varing notions of the Antichrist, certainly knew the prophecies of the Arthurian Beast, and Germanicized them to better fit his maniacal vision of an Aryan Camelot, whose perfect Kingdom 'Thule' and Millennial Reich would last 1,000 years under the Black Sun, the power of Lucifer. In appearance, the Atlanteans were fairer of skin than desert peoples and some possessed golden hair and blue eyes. Enjoying both grace of body and strength of limb, they were reputed to be the most beautiful of all men [akin to Angels], but their hearts were evil and their fair exteriors concealed a blackness within. They came by their great sciences not honestly, but in dealings with the children of the god Dagon, one of the lords of the Old Ones. Atlantis and the Cycles of Time It is a strange characteristic of the dwellers in the depths that they feel such affinity to our [human] race. Tales are told of friendships, and even loves, between the children of Dagon and the children of man, and by some unnatural art, they are enabled to breed with human beings when they wish to create offspring from these abhorrent couplings. For it was never meant by nature that the Deep Ones and the surface dwellers should engender children [even as] such spawn is cursed to the tenth generation, for breed as often as they will thereafter with man, they can never expunge the traits of [unintelligible] their blood. Atlantis and the Cycles of Time Plato could not, of course, have foretold such a modern development. But it is far more than a coincidence that the ancient "Reds" or "Royals" (Kshatryas or Rajputs = "Sons of Kings") claimed to have a different blood than commoners, the so-called "Blue-blood". Perhaps this is yet another legacy of the Atlantean science degenerated into a legendary tradition on the existence of a superior race of different blood destined to rule the others. [Welsh Witchcraft Website] Atlantis Resources and References The creed of the Thule Society inner circle was as follows: Thule was a legendary island in the far north, and was likely Atlantis itself, the center of a lost, high-level civilization, but not all secrets of that once great civilization had been completely wiped out. Those that remained were being guarded by ancient, highly intelligent beings (similar to the "Masters" of Theosophy or the White Brotherhood). The truly initiated could establish contact with these beings by means of magic-mystical rituals. The "Masters" or "Ancients" allegedly would be able to endow the initiated with supernatural strength and energy. With the help of these energies the goal of the initiated was to create a race of Supermen of "Aryan" (Atlantean) stock who would exterminate all "inferior" races. There can be no doubt that Eckart - who had been alerted to Hitler by other Thulists - trained Hitler in techniques of self confidence, self projection, persuasive oratory, body language and discursive sophistry. With these tools, in a short period of time he was able to move the obscure workers party from the club and beer hall atmosphere to a mass movement. The emotion charged lay speaker became an expert orator, capable of mesmerizing a vast audience. One should not underestimate occultism's influence on Hitler. His subsequent rejection of Free Masons and esoteric movements, of Theosophy, of Anthrosophy, does not necessarily mean otherwise. Occult circles have long been known as covers for espionage and influence peddling. Hitler's spy apparatus under Canaris and Heydrich were well aware of these conduits, particularly from the direction of Britain which had within its MI5 intelligence agency a department known as the Occult Bureau. That these potential sources of trouble were purged from Nazi life should not be taken to mean that Hitler and the Nazi secret societies were not influenced by mystical and occult writers such as Madame Blavatsky, Houston Stewart Chamberlain, Guido Von List, Lanz Von Liebenfels, Rudolf Steiner, George Gurdjieff, Karl Haushofer and Theodor Fritsch. Although Hitler later denounced and ridiculed many of them, he did dedicate his book Mein Kampf to his teacher Dietrich Eckart. A frequent visitor to Landsberg Prison where Hitler was writing Mein Kampf with the help of Rudolf Hess, was General Karl Haushofer, a university professor and director of the Munich Institute of Geopolitics. Haushofer, Hitler, and Hess had long conversations together. Hess also kept records of these conversations. Hitler's demands for German "living space" in the east at the expense of the Slavic nations were based on the geopolitical theories of the learned professor. Haushofer was also inclined toward the esoteric. as military attache in Japan, he had studied Zen-Buddhism. He had also gone through initiations at the hands of Tibetan Lamas. He became Hitler's second "esoteric mentor", replacing Dietrich Eckart. In Berlin, Haushofer had founded the Luminous Lodge or the Vril Society. The lodge's objective was to explore the origins of the Aryan race and to perform exercises in concentration to awaken the "forces of Vril". Haushofer was a student of the Russian magician and metaphysician Gregor Ivanovich Gurdyev (George Gurdjieff). Both Gurdjeiff and Haushofer maintained that they had contacts with secret Tibetan Lodges that possessed the secret of the "Superman". The lodge included Hitler, Alfred Rosenberg, Himmler, Goring, and Hitler's subsequent personal physician Dr. Morell. It is also known that Aleister Crowley and Gurdjieff sought contact with Hitler. Hitler's unusual powers of suggestion become more understandable if one keeps in mind that he had access to the "secret" psychological techniques of the esoteric lodges. Haushofer taught him the techniques of Gurdjieff which, in turn, were based on the teachings of the Sufis and the Tibetan Lamas- and familiarized him with the Zen teaching of the Japanese Society of the Green Dragon. Meanwhile, Stein soon became frantic over developments in Germany. Hitler's rise to power coincided directly with his initiation into The Secret Doctrine, a gathering of the most elite and powerful Mages in the world. Further, the core of the Nazi party leadership was dominated by powerful Occultists. Stein realized that although they had studied Occultism together, Hitler had traveled down the shadowed path of Dark Magick. Stein knew that Hitler's admission into the Doctrine could be disastrous for all those who opposed him. With this power and a cadre of dark mystics, Nazi Germany had a secret weapon the Allied forces would be ill-prepared to meet. The Nazi mystics sensed Walter Stein's presence, and in 1933 he fled to England, narrowly escaping forced service into Germany's Nazi Occult Bureau. Upon arriving in England, Stein warned Winston Churchill of the impending danger posed by Hitler's indoctr ination. It was clear that action must be taken to either quell Nazi progress in matters Arcane or find a way to match it. Stein had further grim news, however. Stein had uncovered evidence while spying on the Nazis that Hitler's English intelligence netw ork was alarmingly extensive There was little chance of an English counter-occult program remaining hidden from Nazi spies. Churchill had no choice but to contact President Roosevelt and ask the Americans for help. Churchill arranged a meeting between the crippled President and Stein. Roosevelt was skeptical, but decided to leave no stone unturned in his efforts to defeat the Nazis. Less than a week after Walter Stein's meeting with Roosevelt, one of the President's most trusted advisors was placed at his disposal and Stein was charged with the creation of an organization whose purpose was to monitor and analyze Nazi Occult activity. Most importantly, the group was to devise counter-measures in the event that mundane firepower alone could not stop Hitler. This group became known among its participants as The Watch. The Watch was an eclectic collection of individuals whose only common thread was power and influence. Stein was the group's unofficial leader. Roosevelt's advisor acted as the President's proxy. Eleven other members brought the total to thirteen. Most of the original thirteen were high-ranking Military Intelligence officers or scientists, the most notable exceptions being a Catholic Arch-bishop and a powerful and respected U.S. Senator. FDR kept the existence of The Watch completely secret, even from the American government and military, to avoid the inevitable public backlash in the event that government-sanction ed occult research ever be uncovered. The accomplishments of The Watch's Occult and psychic research allowed them to undertake several successful missions that kept the Axis occult power in check. The Watch's wartime operations included the assassination, by both mundane and arcane means, of several leading Nazi occultists and the recovery of certain artifacts of mystical significance, including the famed Spear of Destiny. By 1945, The Watch had become extremely powerful organization, and yet remained completely hidden from the world. The war ended before Hitler's nefarious dreams were attained. The deeper established and much more powerful Masonic elements within the British and American governments had a far more ancient doctrine and plan to accomplish, despite Hitler's attempted hijacking of the Merovingian (Antichrist) destiny. Needless to say, this narcissistic, Satanic-serving child of Germany as the self-proclaimed *Aryan Messiah #555* was subsequently removed from power. Russian and American troops assaulted Hitler's iron fortified Chancellery bunker in Berlin, the fort of his own land. History tell us he killed himself on April 30th, 1945 just before his underground bunker was overrun by Russian forces. After the battle, there was found in the bunker courtyard the remains of a German man made to look like the Fuehrer, yet the dead man was an obvious body double which Hitler was reputed to have, allowing even history itself to be uncertain of his final fate, as Adolph Hitler's body was never found. The robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall He shall set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do. Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall and not be found. [Daniel Chapter 11:14-19]. And so throughout history we've seen many archetypes of Antichrist's rising and falling: from Akhenaten to Antiochus; from Neron Kaiser to Napoleon, to Hitler, all leading to a final One, The One. Adolph Hitler, clearly under the influences of the same Occult notions which drove his predecessors, likewise built the Third Reich as his own occult version of the Millennial Utopia to last 1,000 years under Satan, no doubt to directly counterfeit Christ's inevitable Millennium of Peace cited in Revelation 20-21. Clearly Hitler, Hess, and Himmler were insane with ideas of taking the world by force into the New Age of Satan's Atlantis, in effect, getting there first, as it were, before the Templarian Freemason's had the chance to finish their own alchemical Great Work. In so doing, they developed their plan for global conquest using both conventional and Occultic means to bring it about. However, what Satan's other past son's could not do through inquisitions, royal decrees, regional conflict, genocides, and world wars, the final Antichrist, the last son to the Dragon lineage, shall accomplish through world peace. Even so, the future Camelot-like, pagan-utopian Kingdom that is to be governed by the Antichrist will be founded upon every former Satanic Kingdom built before it, including Hitler's own, with the ultimate goal being to build a completley counterfeit Millennial Kingdom of Christ, to last for 1,000 years. *Read Article The Master Number 555 in Occult Numerology *Read Article The Nazi and Occult Roots of the Current British Royal Family Windsor
