Every year the same question is posed, What is Bilderberg really?

“21st century: Biotech, nanotech, fusion and fission and m-theory. And that was just the first decade. We can create cybernetic individuals who – in just a few short years – will be completely indistinguishable from us. Which leads to an obvious conclusion:  We are the gods now. Those of you who know me, you will be aware by now that my ambition is unlimited. you know that I will settle for nothing short of greatness or I will die trying.”

Fictional super-rich mogul Peter Weyland in a TED Talk promo for the film Prometheus

Every year the same question is posed or answered in different ways: What is Bilderberg really? What is it at its core? Here is the key answer and definition: People incapable of empathy acquiring the literal powers of gods through science.  [Editor’s note – There is only one true God of the Bible – all others “gods” from the ancient Greco Roman world through today are false, they don’t exist.]
The purpose of Google and the NSA is to make the superclass all-knowing, all-seeing and to enable them to predict the future. The drone program is about becoming all-seeing and to become like the god Zeus, sending bolts of lightning at mortals you want to take out of existence.Weather modification, chemtrailing and ionospheric manipulation through systems like Haarp is not just another weapon in the military’s toolkit.

It is about making the weather like a god would do, sending floods and droughts and storms to kill mortals. Genetic engineering and the wider field of synthetic biology is not primarily about making money to buy more vintage sports cars from the 1960s, it is about becoming the creator of life.

Implantable neuro-microchips are about speaking directly into peoples minds, not increasing paper wealth. Transhumanism and gene therapy are about immortality. Research into computer simulations of the human brain are supposed to create controlled matrix-like environments to live out fantasies. Do you desire to squash entire cities like Godzilla from the movies? You can. Want to be Satan and fry people like in old artists renditions? You can. And in case the gene therapy does not yield the desired results you can live forever in the computer simulation.

Money is just a means to an end, not an end in itself. Even the biggest fortunes cannot truly satisfy an educated psychpath on a cult mission. He is seeking godhood, not just castles  and limousines. The globalist power clans have classic narcissist personalities. There is the true self, and then there is the fantasy self image of the narcissist. Between these two there is a gap, the so-called grandiosity gap. This gap has to be constantly managed. It must not become too big, otherwise the fantasy can collapse and the person becomes unstable, even suicidal. Obviously they cannot fully perceive themselves as full gods just yet. They get older and weaker, they make mistakes, they have to put in tremendous effort and break a sweat.

The real “god delusion”

The superclass of people comes up with all sorts of bemusing and pathetic explanations about how they are substitute gods: They claim to be avatars, luciferian spirits in a mortal hull. Fallen divine bloodlines, contaminated over the ages with common human DNA, seeking to become full gods again in later generations through selective breeding, magic rituals and technology.

There are many elegant ways for the mentally ill to claim godhood  without actually having godlike powers. Adolf Hitler was a clear example of this. Many dramatic quotes people might have seen attributed to him in books and articles, eyewitnesses describing movielike posessions, channelings of entities and annoucing the coming of the aryan Übermensch, the superhuman, are made up. There are not many reliable sources about his private life. Nevertheless he had the same mental illness and was drawn to belief systems which promised magic powers and godhood. His father used to senselessly beat the entire family plus the family dog, sometimes to the point of unconsciousness. After his father’s demise he became a drifter, wasting his time and inheritance trying to become a bigshot. Occultism, gnosticism and germanic mythology influenced him greatly, he believed to be part of the god race.

Psychopaths don’t advertise in the paper that they are looking for fellow psychopaths, they advertise by offering to “improve” you and by seeking out “special people”. The deeper you get in the bigger the promises get. From solving your profane problems over to becoming a magician with special powers to becoming a god.

When World War I was lost and Adolf Hitler was lying in hospital, temporarily blinded by enemy chemical weapons, he completely snapped. He believed more and more that the operas of Wagner were really about him, that he would become the germanic prophet to annouce the aryan messiah. Later in Hitlers career, when he was more successful and powerful, he adapted his fantasy image of himself accordingly. Now he thought of himself as the germanic messiah, not just the prophet.

In past centuries and millenia technology and science was limited. Of course, many sci-fi novellists have claimed otherwise and sold their works of historical fiction as a factual retelling. Yet another example of gnosticism and promising the audience access to magical powers.

Ancient rulers had to develop simple yet effective cult techniques. Today rulers combine this low tech approach with modern high tech. We have been raised in a way that makes us vulnerable to cult mechanisms. People might see through one or more destuctive cults but many of us are still just looking to join a new cult.

The New World Order is too big for a narrow frame

This becomes evident in the discussion of Bilderberg. We see attemps to frame and limit the discussion of it, eliminating all elements that don’t fit into this frame.

There is for example the ideological frame of the hardcore socialists. For them Bilderberg is only the center of capitalism and western dominance. If we only adopted totalitarian socialism and allied ourselves with todays incarnation of the Soviet empire, everything would turn out well and make our dreams come true. The hardcore left will not admit that Bilderberg made socialism and the Soviets and Red China possible. They literally worship Stalin and Mao and Lenin like gods.

The establishment can elegantly counter the leftist condemnations of Bilderberg by releasing books such as David Rothkopf’s “Superclass” or Dr. Ian Richardsons “Bilderberg People: Elite Power and Consensus in World Affairs” to a middle class audience that values productivity and order.

Putin is a virtual clone of the two Bush-Presidents in the US and there also has been massive divergence between the elites of the east and west. The true communists have declared their ideology to be god. The ideology is faultless, impeccable, not even tens of millions murdered under socialism can change that view for them. Ideological enemies are viewed as a disease. They are incapable of logically assessing the faults of their belief system.

Another crippling frame for the discussion of Bilderberg is the mythical one. Some people only value the unknown and the mysterious, because their hopes of becoming magicians and gods are at stake. The true unveiling of a classic, down to earth conspiracy is actually a disappointment to them because it does not leave anything to the mystical imagination. It is like spoiling a movie or a book. They use the discussion of Bilderberg facts as a mere door opener for all kinds of unproven and fantastical claims. At the core is gnosticism again. The argument is this: The elite is so powerful because of magical powers, that is why the decent people need to get into magic and gnosticism too in order to be able to fight them with “white” magic.

The deeper you go down that rabbit hole of mysteries and halucenogenic drugs and lust for magic powers, the more likely you are to become a cult member and change your moral values. No longer is it considered virtuous to fight evil on all fronts, you will actually be convinced that confronting evil, just thinking about the bad things in the world, will magically attract the evil things into existence. Your new moral impetus will be to banish all “negative” thought and strive to conduct magic rituals to send love to the bad guys. Needless to say the hyper aggressive bad guys are laughing their butts off when their opposition has no testosterone anymore, no sense of cause and effect and no natural reactions to the world. The passiveness, hailed as the way towards the light, makes it easier for the psychopaths to to their work. Or it creates new psychopaths who clad themselves in a nice “we are all one”-ideology but who think that evil is supposed to exist in a yin-yang-circle and who think that killing people is a moral act of liberating the souls from their pesky material prisons.

It is easy to discredit the whole Bilderberg topic just by pointing at those who mix facts with their gnostic belief system.

Then we have the racists who frame the Bilderberg discussion by saying it is either a council of jewish power or a distraction from the topic of jewish world dominance. Some people who explain history and current events and the nature of evil through the race googles are simply limited in their view. Others have become cult members. They have adopted an old and thoroughly debunked pseudoscience and they have adopted German gnosticism from the last century. You read certain blogs and websites and you will find literal worship of Hitler, the Nazi-Mysteries that promise the follower to aquire magic powers and ultimately become gods. Of course, the jews have to be killed as part of that crazy ideology. Here is an interesting but little known historical fact: Hitler wanted to kill off Christians as well who would not change their religion into the state envisioned nazified caricature version complete with an aryan Jesus. He just didn’t do that before or during the war because he didn’t have the capacity at the time for yet another huge societal cleansing project. He simply put that off for later.

To anybody who has delved into conspiracy literature and is convinced or unsure of whether or not the jews, and only the jews are the embodiment of evil: Can you or can you not pinpoint exactly where on the DNA of jewish human beings the evil is located, as opposed to non-jewish DNA? If you or the people you follow cannot pinpoint this in a scientific manner, your ideology is useless, dangerous and misleading.

Do not accept made-up substitute pseudo-proof á la “that’s just the way it is because der Führer said so and if you doubt it, you are aiding the enemy and might even be a jewish intellectual.”

Many try to use a flawed empirical line of reasoning: They will rattle off name after name of powerful criminal individuals who are – supposedly – jewish to make their point. The problem with this is that it is a) complex to define what makes a jew and b) all those crimes attributed to jews have existed in all civilizations, all skin colors and religions, even thousands of years back when there were no jews at all. In Israel bureaucrats decide who can legally be defined as jewish. Many religious immigrants to the homeland were shocked to find that they were not eligible for the legal status of a jew because their mothers were not jewish. Historians and doctors clash with each other over what the defining genetic traits are. In every culture we have a documented history of ethnic cleansing, tyranny and central banking schemes. Racial theories are a useless and misleading way to understand the nature of evil and improve the world.

Racists are mainly cult members who want to become like Bilderberg. When the US eugenicists visited the national socialists in Germany in the 1930s, they reported back how shocked they were over these “lower middle class” people that came to power and who claimed to be the master race.

The Bilderbergers are not in the position they’re in because they played fairly on the capitalist field, or because they get help from planet zonk. The russian and chinese oligarchies are not one bit more moral and they will not help you to achieve liberty. If you want to truly improve your life and the world, don’t join the next cult masquerading as an alternative. Combine the fields of psychology, sociology and history among others and learn how to defeat evil for good.

US Continues to violate Constitution in Permanent World War on Terror

Eric Blair

activistpost.com

5/17/13

Two disturbing developments have occurred in the last couple of days that have gone relatively unnoticed compared to the recent IRS, AP, and Benghazi scandals.

First, the senate is debating an expansion of the already broad powers of the 2001 Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) so the U.S. can essentially engage any area in the world in the war on terror, including America. Which brings us to the second development: the Pentagon has recently granted itself police powers on American soil.

Assistant Secretary of Defense Michael Sheehan told Congress yesterday that the AUMF authorized the US military to operate on a worldwide battlefield from Boston to Pakistan.  Sheehan emphasized that the Administration is authorized to put boots on the ground wherever the enemy chooses to base themselves, essentially ignoring the declaration of war clause in the US Constitution.

Senator Angus King said this interpretation of the AUMF is a “nullity” to the Constitution because it ignores Congress’ role to declare war.  King called it the “most astoundingly disturbing hearing” he’s been to in the Senate.

Even ultra-hawk John McCain agreed that the AUMF has gone way beyond its authority.

“This authority … has grown way out of proportion and is no longer applicable to the conditions that prevailed, that motivated the United States Congress to pass the authorization for the use of military force that we did in 2001,” McCain said.

Glenn Greenwald wrote an excellent piece describing how this hearing reveals the not-so-secret plan to make the war on terror a permanent fixture in Western society.

Greenwald writes:

It is hard to resist the conclusion that this war has no purpose other than its own eternal perpetuation. This war is not a means to any end but rather is the end in itself. Not only is it the end itself, but it is also its own fuel: it is precisely this endless war – justified in the name of stopping the threat of terrorism – that is the single greatest cause of that threat.

A self-perpetuating permanent war against a shadowy undefinable enemy appears to be the future of American foreign policy.  How convenient for the war machine and tyrants who claim surveillance is safety.

But perhaps most disturbing of all of this is the military’s authority to police American streets as if it was in civil war. For all those still in denial that America is a militarized police state, this should be the ultimate cure to your delusion.

Jeff Morey of AlterNet writes:

By making a few subtle changes to a regulation in the U.S. Code titled “Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies” the military has quietly granted itself the ability to police the streets without obtaining prior local or state consent, upending a precedent that has been in place for more than two centuries.

The most objectionable aspect of the regulatory change is the inclusion of vague language that permits military intervention in the event of “civil disturbances.” According to the rule: “Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances.”

A law from 1878 called the Posse Comitatus Act was put in place to prevent the Department of Defense from interfering with local law enforcement.  But now, the DoD claims they’ve had this authority for over 100 years.

“The authorization has been around over 100 years; it’s not a new authority. It’s been there but it hasn’t been exercised. This is a carryover of domestic policy,” said an unnamed defense official who also emphasized that all soldiers take an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies “foreign and domestic” indicating that citizens are a threat to the Constitution.

Yet, the Constitution is a document that polices the government, not the people. In other words, the only people who can be “enemies” of the Constitution are those who took an oath to defend it. Therefore, only government officials can be an enemy the Constitution.

This follows a recent West Point study that sought to define the American people as “domestic enemies” in order to justify soldiers breaking their oath to corral pesky citizens.

The West Point Terrorism Center wrote that “conspiracy theorists” who worry that local law enforcement will be steadily replaced by federally-controlled law enforcement could potentially be a domestic enemy:

Some groups are driven by a strong conviction that the American political system and its proxies were hijacked by external forces interested in promoting a “New World Order,” (NWO) in which the United States will be embedded in the UN or another version of global government. The NWO will be advanced, they believe, via steady transition of powers from local to federal law-enforcement agencies, i.e., the transformation of local police and law-enforcement agencies into a federally controlled “National Police” agency that will in turn merge with a “Multi-National Peace Keeping Force.” The latter deployment on US soil will be justified via a domestic campaign implemented by interested parties that will emphasize American society’s deficiencies and US government incompetency.

So, as the US military claims to have the authority to be a “National Police” force, researchers who claim there is an agenda to do just that are now labeled as domestic terrorists?

Does this make any sense? Will oath takers see through these ridiculous interpretations and engage the real domestic enemy to the Constitution? Or will they just follow orders when the time comes to crack down on Americans?

Military Quietly Grants Itself the Power to Police the Streets Without Local or State Consent

The lines between the military and law enforcement have blurred even further

May 15, 2013 

alternet.org

By Jed Morey

The manhunt for the Boston Marathon bombing suspects offered the nation a window into the stunning military-style capabilities of our local law enforcement agencies. For the past 30 years, police departments throughout the United States have benefitted from the government’s largesse in the form of military weaponry and training,  incentives offered in the ongoing “war on drugs.” For the average citizen watching events such as the intense pursuit of the Tsarnaev brothers on television, it would be difficult to discern between fully outfitted police SWAT teams and the military.

The lines blurred even further  Monday as a new dynamic was introduced to the militarization of domestic law enforcement. By making a few subtle changes to a regulation in the U.S. Code titled  “Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies” the military has quietly granted itself the ability to police the streets without obtaining prior local or state consent, upending a precedent that has been in place for more than two centuries.

The most objectionable aspect of the regulatory change is the inclusion of vague language that permits military intervention in the event of “civil disturbances.” According to the rule: “Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances.”

Bruce Afran, a civil liberties attorney and constitutional law professor at Rutgers University, calls the rule, “a wanton power grab by the military.” He says, “It’s quite shocking actually because it violates the long-standing presumption that the military is under civilian control.”

A defense official who declined to be named takes a different view of the rule, claiming, “The authorization has been around over 100 years; it’s not a new authority. It’s been there but it hasn’t been exercised. This is a carryover of domestic policy.” Moreover, he insists the Pentagon doesn’t “want to get involved in civilian law enforcement. It’s one of those red lines that the military hasn’t signed up for.” Nevertheless, he says, “every person in the military swears an oath of allegiance to the Constitution of the United States to defend that Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.”

One of the more disturbing aspects of the new procedures that govern military command on the ground in the event of a civil disturbance relates to authority. Not only does it fail to define what circumstances would be so severe that the president’s authorization is “impossible,” it grants full presidential authority to “Federal military commanders.” According to the defense official, a commander is defined as follows: “Somebody who’s in the position of command, has the title commander. And most of the time they are centrally selected by a board, they’ve gone through additional schooling to exercise command authority.”

As it is written, this “commander” has the same power to authorize military force as the president in the event the president is somehow unable to access a telephone. (The rule doesn’t address the statutory chain of authority that already exists in the event a sitting president is unavailable.) In doing so, this commander must exercise judgment in determining what constitutes, “wanton destruction of property,” “adequate protection for Federal property,” “domestic violence,” or “conspiracy that hinders the execution of State or Federal law,” as these are the circumstances that might be considered an “emergency.”

“These phrases don’t have any legal meaning,” says Afran. “It’s no different than the emergency powers clause in the Weimar constitution [of the German Reich]. It’s a grant of emergency power to the military to rule over parts of the country at their own discretion.”

KS Gov. Brownback Signs Watered-down Second Amendment Protection Act

originally posted 4/18/13

thenewamerican.com

Written by 

On Tuesday, April 16, Governor Sam Brownback of Kansas (shown) signed a bill purporting to safeguard the constitutionally protected right of Kansans to keep and bear arms.

Titled the Second Amendment Protection Act, SB 102 declares:

The second amendment to the constitution of the United States reserves to the people, individually, the right to keep and bear arms as that right was understood at the time that Kansas was admitted to statehood in 1861, and the guaranty of that right is a matter of contract between the state and people of Kansas and the United States as of the time that the compact with the United States was agreed upon and adopted by Kansas in 1859 and the United States in 1861.

Praise for the measure has come from many in the liberty community who view the act as a forceful counterattack to the federal assault on the Second Amendment.

Admittedly, several sections of the act use very strong and unequivocal language to defend the right of citizens of the Sunflower State to own firearms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment. For example, Section 6(a) of the bill declares:

“Any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States which violates the second amendment to the constitution of the United States is null, void and unenforceable in the state of Kansas.”

That is undeniably a very firm and constitutionally sound rejection of recent attempts by the federal government (both those planned and those already perpetrated) to unlawfully infringe on the right of Americans to own weapons. For this, the Kansas legislature and Governor Brownback deserve the praise they have received.

However, the next section of the new law, Section 6(b), seems to sap some of the strength from this otherwise potent statute. As amended by the state House of Representatives, Section 6(b) reads:

No official, agent or employee of the state of Kansas, or any political subdivision thereof, shall enforce or attempt to enforce any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States regarding any personal firearm, firearm accessory or ammunition that is manufactured commercially or privately and owned in the state of Kansas and that remains within the borders of Kansas. [Emphasis added.]

For comparison, consider the original text of the same section of the bill prior to the changes affected by the committee:

No official, agent or employee of the state of Kansas, nor any dealer selling any firearm in the state of Kansas, or any political subdivision thereof, shall enforce or attempt to enforce any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States regarding any personal firearm, firearm accessory or ammunition that is owned or manufactured commercially or privately in the state of Kansas and that remains within the borders of Kansas. [Emphasis added.]

Although the difference seems slight — it is only the shifting of a couple of words a few places to the right — the legal implications are substantial.

As enacted by the governor, Kansas’s Second Amendment Preservation Act would, by using “and” in place of “or,” apply only to that very small range of firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition that are both manufactured and owned in Kansas. That leaves those citizens who own firearms manufactured in other states (or countries, for that matter) outside the zone of this law’s protections. Furthermore, the original bill stated that firearms dealers operating in Kansas were prohibited from enforcing federal gun control laws, while the amended version essentially restricts the prohibition to state officials and employees.

Another less than exemplary section of the Kansas law — Section 4 — intimates that those guns owned by Kansans that were manufactured outside of the state are subject to federal restrictions under the authority of the interstate commerce clause of Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.

While Congress may possess a certain level of regulatory power over the interstate trade of weapons, parts, and ammunition, these regulations cannot infringe on the right to keep and bear arms without violating the express prohibitions set out in the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment permits no exceptions to its prohibitions on any federal infringement on the right to keep and bear arms. Section 4 of the Kansas law would seem to permit such an unconstitutional exercise of power.

To its credit, Section 7 of the law declares:

It is unlawful for any official, agent or employee of the government of the United States, or employee of a corporation providing services to the government of the United States to enforce or attempt to enforce any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States regarding a firearm, a firearm accessory, or ammunition that is manufactured commercially or privately and owned in the state of Kansas and that remains within the borders of Kansas. Violation of this section is a severity level 10 nonperson felony.

State laws that impose criminal penalties on attempts to confiscate or otherwise control the unalienable right of Americans to keep and bear arms are preferable to other toothless, non-binding resolutions that are simply symbolic defenses of that right. So, for that, again, Kansas is to be congratulated.

However, that section, too, severely limits the application of the criminal penalties to firearms both manufactured and owned in Kansas, rather than a broader, more encompassing (and constitutionally sound) provision that would cover firearms, accessories, and ammunition manufactured or owned, as was originally written in the bill.

Another deficiency in Section 7 of the law provides that any federal official or agent of the federal official facing trial for violating the state’s Second Amendment Protection Act “shall not be arrested or otherwise detained prior to, or during the pendency of, any trial for a violation of this section.” Again, an unfortunate dilution of an otherwise potent state law.

The watering down of this law is understandable given the fact that nearly 33 percent of the Kansas state budget comes from federal funds. It is difficult for governors and state lawmakers to bite the hand that feeds them, although a little nip now and then is tolerated.

In light of recent movements by the president, Congress, and the United Nations to effectively repeal the Second Amendment, there is an urgent need for states to stand up and assert their constitutional authority to resist any federal act not specifically permitted in the “few and defined” powers delegated to it in the Constitution. States must nullify all such attempts to deny citizens of their God-given rights, including the right to keep and bear arms. Nullification, not capitulation, is the way to defeat the powerful forces combined against the continued enjoyment of freedom.

Regarding the rightful role of nullification and the private ownership of weapons, lawmakers and citizens alike should remember the words of imminent jurist Joseph Story, who wrote in 1833: “The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them.”

On a very positive note Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach issued a letter on May 2, 2013 in response to Eric Holder’s direct threat against the state for its new law, the 2nd Amendment Protection Act.  It reads, in part:With respect to his concern that federal officials be allowed to enforce federal laws, Mr. Holder’s statement is a curious one. He was evidently not concerned that ATFE officials be allowed to enforce federal law when his agency oversaw the “fast and furious” operation to walk guns into the hands of Mexican cartels.

The State of Kansas is determined to restore the Constitution and to protect the right of its citizens to keep and bear arms.

The Response of the Government to Terrorism is the Loss of our Liberties

Rocco J. Piserchia

After the terrorist attacks of 9/11/01 the federal government instituted the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and passed the Patriot Act.  No one in the military or any of the US intelligence agencies was arrested or even demoted for criminal negligence.  Instead the federal government has continued to implement a domestic police state.  For those who question this much evidence exists.  Two points should suffice.  1.)The 2012 National defense Authorization Act violated the US Constitution  by claiming that any US citizen anywhere in the world who is declared an enemy combatant loses his right to due process and may be indefinitely detained or executed without a jury trial.  The President currently has a hit list of alleged terrorists that may include US citizens – anyone of this list is subject to execution based upon secret evidence held by the US President. Anwar al-Awlaki and  his 16 year old son were US citizens who were executed by separate drone attacks in Yemen.  2.) In 2008 The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) was amended to enable the federal government to record any digital communication without a warrant. Every phone call made by a land line or cell as well as every email or any other digital communication is subject to being recorded by the government without a warrant. Obama voted for this bill as a Senator and has continued to support it as President.

After the Boston Marathon terror attack we saw martial law declared for Boston and surrounding towns – random illegal searches at gun point occurred. Both the FBI and the CIA have admitted that the alleged terrorists were under their surveillanceHowever there will be no investigation into criminal negligence of the FBI and CIA.  Neither will anyone in the FBI or CIA be charged with any type of criminal negligence.  Instead the result be to further erode what’s left of our liberties.  Case in point – Rep. Peter King (R-NY) wants more cameras for surveillance of the public.  The solution of the government is for the corrupt power of the state to grow and the liberties of the individual to be diminished.  The colossal hoax of the illegal “War on Terror” is being used to create the pretext for perpetual war and to incrementally construct a domestic police state.  Our Founding Fathers knew that perpetual war can not coexist with individual liberty.

Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other.  War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few… No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”

James Madison (1751 – 1836)

Eric Holder Threatens Kansas in Letter on Gun Control Nullification Law

tenthamendmentcenter.com

5/1/13

On Thursday, Kansas Governor Sam Brownback received a letter from Federal Attorney General Eric Holder threatening action against the state should it enforce SB102 which Brownback signed into law last month.

The new law states, in part:

Any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States which violates the second amendment to the constitution of the United States is null, void and unenforceable in the state of Kansas

The bill also provides for criminal penalties against federal agents who attempt to enforce specific federal laws on guns manufactured in the state of Kansas and sold within the state – as the state takes the position under the new law that the federal government does not “interstate commerce” authority over such items.

In his letter, Holder didn’t take too kindly to such a proposition.  He wrote:

“In purporting to override federal law and to criminalize the official acts of federal officers, SB102 directly conflicts with federal law and is therefore unconstitutional.”  

He continued, “Under the Supremacy Clause…Kansas may not prevent federal employees and officials from carrying out their official responsibilities.  And a state certainly may not criminalize the exercise of federal responsibilities.  Because SB102 conflicts with federal firearms laws and regulations, federal law supercedes this new statute; all provisions of federal laws and their implementing regulations therefore continue to apply.”

Let’s take Eric apart here.

1. Kansas is NOT purporting to criminalize the exercise of constitutional federal responsibilities.  On the contrary, the bill criminalizes what the state has determined is unconstitutional.   It is the position that such federal acts are indeed a violation of the Constitution.  No matter how much Eric might believe it to be otherwise, his view is obviously not universal – especially in Kansas.

2. The Supremacy Clause.  Holder takes the position that all tyrants do – that everything they do is authorized, anything to the contrary – worthless.  But Holder is wrong.  The Supremacy Clause doesn’t say that “any law in conflict with federal law” is void.  It says that only those laws “in pursuance” of the constitution are supreme.  The new Kansas legislation, again, takes the position that such federal acts are not constitutional, and therefore not supreme.

3. Historical Precedent.  The 1850 Fugitive Slave Act was a federal law that basically required all states in the north to act as slave catchers for black people claimed as property in the South.  It’s one of the most disgusting acts in American history.  A number of northern states passed laws similar to the new Kansas law, criminalizing federal agents for attempting to kidnap people in their states.    Although the feds still claimed the same kind of authority that Eric Holder has claimed today, they didn’t have the manpower to enforce.  Read more about that here.    As an aside, if Holder would like to take the position that such resistance to federal slave laws was wrong, he’s welcome to publicly state that.

Eric capped off his letter by assuring the People of Kansas that the federal government will continue to enforce all federal gun laws.  He wrote:

“I am writing to inform you that federal law enforcement agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the United States Attorney’s Office…will continue to execute their duties to enforce all federal firearms laws and regulations.”

4.  Manpower.   That brings us to the most important fact, the federal government simply does not have the manpower to enforce all its laws already.  The new Kansas law doesn’t just deal with firearms made within the state.  It also bans all state and local agents from enforcing federal gun control measures.  (learn about the bill in detail here).  As Judge Andrew Napolitano has affirmed recently, such widespread noncompliance makes federal gun control laws “nearly impossible to enforce” (video here).  So Eric can promise to enforce these federal acts all he wants.  But if Kansas doesn’t help him, he might be able to get a 2% enforcement rate.  Or, he’ll have to pull resources from other states.

WHAT SHOULD THE RESPONSE BE?

1.  Hold the Line, and Tell Holder to buzz off.  Seriously.  This guy has been sending threatening letters to states around the country on medical marijuana laws for years (and so did his predecessors).  In fact, those letters are often even more aggressive, threatening taking property or even criminal sanctions against state or local politicians.   A letter last year threatened just that against the San Diego city council.  (read it here) That community knows full well the threats that are constantly made against their liberties by Holder and his DOJ team. But they push on and keep doing what they believe is right.  The People of Kansas need to stand strong in support of the 2nd Amendment and reject these threats from the DOJ.

2. Local resistance.  Recognizing that manpower is a VERY serious problem for the feds, people in Kansas should be constantly reaching out to county, city and town elected officials to respectfully press them into passing local ordinances to ensure that no assets will be used to enforce federal gun control.   Covering the states in ordinances that provide backup to the new federal law will ensure that federal gun control will be “nearly impossible to enforce.”

3. Call Sam Brownback.  Flood his phone line with messages of encouragement and support.  Let him know that the people have his back – that’s how governors show courage.  Brownback has a chance to act like a hero to the entire country.  In fact, people all over the country should send him letters in support – he’s going to need all the help he can get.

4.  Support efforts in other states.  Kansas can’t do it alone.  A similar bill is up for a signature in Alaska.  Bills are moving forward in Missouri, Alabama and elsewhere.  Every state and local community that does the same will make federal enforcement even more difficult, and eventually, the feds can pass all the “laws” they want, but they won’t have any effect.

JUST SAY NO!

The bad guys always talk tough, and they want to scare you into compliance .  But the fact remains – they don’t have the manpower to carry out all their threats.  Even with almost full state and local cooperation, there are now 18 states defying DC on marijuana prohibition.  As two states – Washington and Colorado – legalize what the feds say is illegal, we’re watching the beginning of the end of federal dominance over the states.

On the right to keep and bear arms, people should follow the same path.  Just say NO to Washington DC, and YES to liberty.

Boston Bombers’ Uncle Married Daughter of Top CIA Official

Graham Fuller: Edmonds’ State Secrets Privilege, FBI Gladio-B Target, Handler-Sponsor of Turkey’s Imam Gulen

A major break in the Boston Terror CIA Connection took place last night when I came across a post outing CIA Operative Graham Fuller as the father of the woman married to Boston terror suspect’s infamous uncle Ruslan Tsarni. Further confirmation of this bombshell was received via mainstream reporter Laura Rozen here. Let me first provide a few excerpts from the original reporting site (a real alternative media):

Boston Bombers’ Uncle Married Daughter of Top CIA Official

The uncle of the two suspected Boston bombers in last week’s attack, Ruslan Tsarni, was married to the daughter of former top CIA official Graham Fuller . Ruslan Tsarni married the daughter of former top CIA official Graham Fuller, who spent 20 years as operations officer in Turkey, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Hong Kong. In 1982 Fuller was appointed the National Intelligence Officer for Near East and South Asia at the CIA, and in 1986, under Ronald Reagan, he became the Vice-Chairman of the National Intelligence Council, with overall responsibility for national level strategic forecasting.

Now, take a look at the most explosive aspect of this original report on Graham Fuller’s outing in the CIA Boston Terror Connection [All Emphasis Mine]:

On a more ominous note, Graham Fuller was listed as one of the American Deep State rogues on Sibel Edmonds’ State Secrets Privilege Gallery,. Edmonds explained it featured subjects of FBI investigations she became aware of during her time as an FBI translator.

Criminal activities were being protected by claims of State Secrets, she asserted. After Attorney General John Ashcroft went all the way to the Supreme Court to muzzle her under a little-used doctrine of State Secrets, she put up twenty-one photos, with no names. One of them was Graham Fuller.

I presented CIA’s Graham Fuller as one of the top culprits in my State Secrets Privilege Case when the government invoked the State Secrets Privilege and several additional gag orders to cover up the FBI’s investigations and files pertaining to CIA-NATO terror operations in Central Asia & the Caucasus since the mid-1990s. Guess what? I provided this information to the US media long before it became public in 2008 via my website and this website. Not a single media outlet (including quasi and pseudo ones) was willing to touch this. And this, despite of all the gag orders, state secrets privilege invocations, congressional gag orders … you name it. I could name more than a dozen publications that said: ‘no way.’

Not only that. I have been covering one of the main CIA operation figures in Central Asia & the Caucasus-Imam Fethullah Gulen, and this Turkish Imam’s relationship and official Connections to CIA’s Graham Fuller. I’ve been doing this since 2009. Let me provide you with a few explosive examples and excerpts. First a few excerpts from over two years ago published at Boiling Frogs Post:

Turkish Intel Chief Exposes CIA Operations via Islamic Group in Central Asia

First of all, there have been tens if not hundreds of articles establishing Graham Fuller as one of Gulen’s official references to the court for his residency, you can view some of these here, here, here. This quote comes from Foreign Policy Journal:

Fethullah Gulen became a green card holder despite serious opposition from FBI and from Homeland Security Department. Former CIA officers (formally and informally) such as Graham Fuller and Morton Abromovitz were some of the prominent references in Gulen’s green card application.

And Stein let that slide?! I’d quickly ask: ‘how often do you write to the FBI on people you think have been unfairly targeted or treated by them?!’ Last but not least on Graham Fuller is my own on-the-record, more accurately, on-the-album, naming of individuals implicated (criminally) in my case, thus protected via invocation of the State Secrets Privilege:…

Then the following excerpt from an article I wrote in 2010:

After years of investigating him the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, due to his guardian angels in the State Department and the CIA, are prevented from bringing an indictment against him, so they try to kick him out of the US. But once again Gulen’s CIA angels step in and portray Gulen as a scholar, despite the fact that Fethullah Gulen doesn’t even have a high-school diploma and never went beyond the 5th grade. Among his angels who vouched for him were Graham Fuller, George Fidas, and Morton Abramowitz.

And this excerpt from another related article I wrote in 2010:

You may remember one of these foreign policy makers from my State Secrets Privilege Gallery and my under oath testimony in the Krikorian case. Here is a quote from Graham A. Fuller, former Deputy Director of the CIA’s National Council on Intelligence:

‘The policy of guiding the evolution of Islam and of helping them against our adversaries worked marvelously well in Afghanistan against the Red Army. The same doctrines can still be used to destabilize what remains of Russian power, and especially to counter the Chinese influence in Central Asia.’

And this from another commentary I wrote on the Gulen-CIA nexus:

No one is daring to mention one of his top backers in the US, another butler of Israel, Mort Abramowitz, or and how Abramowitz vouched for Gulen during his deportation hearing. No one is talking about Gulen’s other CIA bodyguard, Graham Fuller. No ‘real’ questions on Gulen’s ‘real’ sources of multibillion dollar funding…No emphasis on Gulen’s real role for the real US decision-makers’ use, and their strategy for Central Asia since 1997…

Some of these reporters have their hands tied by their MSM editors. Some of the semi- independent journalists have fallen for the creators of the smoke and mirrors. And others are simply guided by ignorance and utter dumbness emboldened by their arrogance. Well, they are just the latest being sold and fed garbage when it comes to Gulen.

If you haven’t watched our Operation Gladio series, please do so now: Sibel Edmonds on Operation Gladio Part I, Part II, Part III, Part IV, Part V. And I urge you to watch and disseminate the following video interview on my analysis linking the CIA & the Boston Terror Case:

You can check out our latest updates on this case here, here and here.

Let’s watch and observe the coverage, or lack of, pertaining to CIA’s Graham Fuller and his three-decade long connections to CIA-Made terror in the Caucasus and Central Asia. I suspect we will not be seeing any coverage with substance. You will not find a single media outlet in the United States that would dare expose what I exposed several years ago on Graham Fuller’s major role in my State Secrets Privilege Case, in black operations in the Caucasus and Central Asia, and in the propping and handling of infamous Islamic Imam Fethullah Gulen and his $20+ Billion Dollar network of NGO’s in the US.

CONFIRMED: Both FBI & CIA Watched Boston Bombing Suspects for Years

FBI & CIA now admit to putting Boston bombing suspect on 2 “watch lists,” directly contradicting previous public statements. CIA most likely sponsored suspect’s trips to meet US-backed terrorists in Chechnya, Russia.

Tony Cartalucci

landdestroyer.blogspot.com

April 25, 2013 (LD) – It is now confirmed that Russian investigators contacted the FBI at least as early as 2011 in regards to Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and again just 6 months before the Boston attacks. Additionally, it is now revealed that both the FBI and CIA had Tsarnaev on at least 2 terrorist watch lists, contradicting previous FBI statements that the case was “closed” after not finding “any terrorism activity, domestic or foreign.”

FBI Caught in Staggering Series of Lies

The suspects, Tamerlan Tsarnaev and brother Dzhokar Tsarnaev, would be revealed to the public by the FBI a day after a bizarre press conference cancellation and a security scare at the federal courthouse where a suspect was allegedly being brought.

The FBI would feign ignorance over the suspects’ identity, appealing to the witless public for help identifying and apprehending them. It would be claimed by the suspects’ family members that the FBI had long been in contact with Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and that the bombing was a set-up.

The FBI’s bizarre behavior grew more suspicious when CBS reported that initially the FBI denied it had any prior contact with the Tsarnaev’s. In their report, “CBS News: FBI Interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev 2 Years Ago,” CBS claimed:

CBS News reports although the FBI initially denied contacting Tsarnaev, the brothers’ mother said they had in an interview with Russia Today.

That interview with Russia Today, in an article titled, “‘They were set up, FBI followed them for years’- Tsarnaevs’ mother to RT,” stated of the suspects’ mother:

But her biggest suspicion surrounding the case was the constant FBI surveillance she said her family was subjected to over the years. She is surprised that having been so stringent with the entire family, the FBI had no idea the sons were supposedly planning a terrorist act.

She would say of the FBI to Russia Today:

“They used to come [to our] home, they used to talk to me…they were telling me that he [the older, 26-y/o Tamerlan] was really an extremist leader and that they were afraid of him. They told me whatever information he is getting, he gets from these extremist sites… they were controlling him, they were controlling his every step…and now they say that this is a terrorist act! Never ever is this true, my sons are innocent!”

The FBI would finally recant its earlier denial, and disclose on April 19, 2013 in an official statement on FBI.gov that indeed, they had been in contact with Tamerlan Tsarnaev as early as 2011:

The two individuals believed to be responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings on Monday have been positively identified as Tamerlan Tsarnaev, now deceased, and Dzhokar Tsarnaev, now in custody. These individuals are brothers and residents of Massachusetts. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was a legal permanent resident and Dzhokar Tsarnaev is a naturalized U.S. citizen. Charges have not yet been filed against Dzhokar Tsarnaev and he is presumed innocent.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, age 26, was previously designated as Suspect 1, wearing a black hat. Dzhokar A. Tsarnaev, age 19, was designated as Suspect 2, wearing a white hat. Both were born in Kyrgyzstan.

Once the FBI learned the identities of the two brothers today, the FBI reviewed its records and determined that in early 2011, a foreign government asked the FBI for information about Tamerlan Tsarnaev. The request stated that it was based on information that he was a follower of radical Islam and a strong believer, and that he had changed drastically since 2010 as he prepared to leave the United States for travel to the country’s region to join unspecified underground groups.

In response to this 2011 request, the FBI checked U.S. government databases and other information to look for such things as derogatory telephone communications, possible use of online sites associated with the promotion of radical activity, associations with other persons of interest, travel history and plans, and education history. The FBI also interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev and family members. The FBI did not find any terrorism activity, domestic or foreign, and those results were provided to the foreign government in the summer of 2011. The FBI requested but did not receive more specific or additional information from the foreign government.

However, the case was not “closed.” Additional evidence would reveal that the FBI had been warned again, just 6 months before the Boston bombings by Russian investigators. The FBI was told Tamerlan Tsarnaev had visited Russia and was in contact with known-terrorists operating in and around Chechnya. Somehow, this additional information “escaped” the FBI’s April 19, 2013 public statement.

The British Daily Mail in their article titled, “Russia asked FBI to investigate bomber just 6 MONTHS ago after being spotted with ‘a militant’ on trip to Dagestan: Was it this known terrorist who Boston killer liked on YouTube?,” would state:

Speculation is growing that one of the Boston bombers met a known Jihadist terrorist in 2011 – as it emerged the FBI failed to follow up on a Russian tip that he was seen with an Islamic militant six times.

The Daily Mail would also report that:

The FBI has confirmed that Russia alerted the agency in 2011 that Tsarnaev had ties to ‘radical Islam’ groups in his homeland. Homeland Security sources have also revealed the agency received tips in 2012 about his ties to extremists connected to a Boston mosque.

In the wake of the FBI’s serial lies, yet more evidence is coming to light of now not only the FBI’s increasingly entangled relationship with the suspects prior to the bombing, but the CIA’s role as well. In the New York Times article, “2 U.S. Agencies Added Boston Bomb Suspect to Watch Lists,” it was reported that:

Despite being told in 2011 that an F.B.I. review had found that a man who went on to become one of the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombings had no ties to extremists, the Russian government asked the Central Intelligence Agency six months later for whatever information it had on him, American officials said Wednesday.
After its review, the C.I.A. also told the Russian intelligence service that it had no suspicious information on the man, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was killed in a shootout with the police early last Friday. It is not clear what prompted the Russians to make the request of the C.I.A.
The upshot of the American inquiries into Mr. Tsarnaev’s background was that even though he was found to have no connections to extremist groups, his name was entered into two different United States government watch lists in late 2011 that were designed to alert the authorities if he traveled overseas.

Therefore, in addition to first denying, then confirming having interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev in 2011 and never mentioning the now confirmed warning by Russia just 6 months ago, the FBI and CIA also put Tsarnaev on at least 2 terrorist watch lists. Inexplicably, the FBI would have the public believe they found no evidence of terrorist activity, but then put Tsarnaev’s name on 2 separate terrorist watch lists anyway – and still somehow failed to prevent the Boston bombings. Clearly, that doesn’t add up.

Evidence Points to Tsarnaev as CIA Asset 

While the establishment media predictably attempts to make the serial lies told by the FBI, and both FBI and CIA’s involvement and foreknowledge of the suspects years before the Boston attacks, appear to be just an innocent bureaucratic foul-up, former-FBI translator Sibel Edmonds reported in incredible detail what most likely transpired, even before revelations of the CIA’s involvement became public.

In a 45 minute interview on the Corbett Report, Edmonds explained that multiple warnings by Russian investigators to the FBI were likely ignored because the CIA was in all probability using Tamerlan Tsarnaev as an asset to travel to Russia’s Caucasus region and make contact with US-backed terrorists.

It is a long-documented fact that the United States has extensively backed terrorists operating in Russia’s Caucasus region.

It is clear that at the very least, the FBI, CIA, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and other federal agencies knew well ahead of time of Boston Marathon bombing suspect, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, and did nothing to prevent him from allegedly carrying out an attack. Understanding the insidious behavior of both the FBI and CIA, opens up a second and more troubling possibility – that the FBI and/or the CIA were directly involved in the Boston bombings themselves, using the Tsarnaev brothers as patsies.

Regardless of which is true – there is more than enough evidence currently to remove the FBI from the Boston bombing investigation and open an immediate and urgent inquiry into both the FBI and CIA’s involvement and criminal improprieties in the lead up to the attacks.

There is also enough evidence for the American people to realize they have exchanged for the past decade, their liberty and dignity for safety and clearly have been left none of the above. It is also now clear that the American people possess the moral imperative to seize back their liberties and to throw off this expansive, ineffectual, stifling, incompetent and/or criminal federal security apparatus – from the DHS and TSA, to the FBI and CIA – who despite receiving billions annually and nearly limitless authority failed utterly to prevent the Boston Marathon bombings, and in fact appear to have played a central role in facilitating them.

DHS Secretary Napolitano lied to Congress about Saudi national

Suspected Saudi Terrorist Al-Harbi Visited White House Numerous Times

Visited by First Lady Michelle Obama while in hospital

April 24, 2013

Saudi national Abdul Rahman Ali al-Harbi, who was briefly held as a “person of interest” in the Boston bombings and then downgraded in less than 24 hours to a witness, visited the White House on numerous occasions since 2009, The Rightscoop reports today.


The startling allegation follows an earlier report indicating that al-Harbi was visited in the hospital by First Lady Michelle Obama after he allegedly sustained injuries from one of the explosives placed at the Boston Marathon.

Blogosphere sleuths subsequently put their hands on a photo definitively placing Obama at the hospital.

Saudi On Terror Watch List

The Department of Homeland Security confessed today that al-Harbi was on a terror watch list, although DHS boss Napolitano attempted to minimize this revelation by stating that he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

“Because he was being interviewed, [after the he was at that point put on a watchlist, and then when it was quickly determined he had nothing to do with the bombing, the watch listing status was removed,” she told Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa during a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“Napolitano seems to either flatly contradict herself or openly admit that it is easy for someone to be put on a terrorist watchlist even though they don’t reach ‘person of interest’ status,” Walid Shoebat writes on his blog today. “That’s either a lie or a chilling statement of what this government is doing.”

A couple obvious questions come to mind. First, why did the First Lady visit a man who was on a terror watch list, no matter how briefly, and second, how is it that he gained access to what is supposedly one of the most secure buildings in the United States?

Is it possible we can attribute the hospital visit and multiple visits to the White House to a special relationship shared between Saudi royals and at least two presidents? For instance, is well-known that George W. Bush had a close relationship with the corrupt Saudi monarchy.

It is important to note that it was the Department of Homeland Security that initially labeled al-Harbi as a suspected terrorist and the alternative media is merely following up on this fact.

Government released and micromanaged evidence in the Boston bombing case implicates the Tsarnaev brothers as the culprits and not Abdul Rahman Ali al-Harbi. His presence at the scene, while suspicious, does not implicit him in this crime.
