Today’s lead article on the CBC /news/ page is about Police charging the man who impersonated a sergeant, wearing a military uniform and wearing medals that were not his on Rememberance Day. You may remember earlier articles which reported that after the first CBC News article identified him as a phony, he and wife began receiving threats. I don’t know how severe those threats might have been. There was some debate over how serious a crime this could have been, impersonating a soldier. Many were shocked to believe that anybody would actually enforce this law.  —jim w—

Microsoft fixes 19-year old Windows bug  { * – Microsoft Corp issued patches on Tuesday to fix a bug in its Windows operating system that remained undiscovered for 19 years. – The bug, which is present in every version of Microsoft Windows from Windows 95 onward, allows an attacker to remotely take over and control a computer.

– IBM Corp’s cybersecurity research team discovered the bug in May, describing it as a “significant vulnerability” in the operating system. – “The buggy code is at least 19 years old and has been remotely exploitable for the past 18 years,” IBM X-Force research team said in its blog on Tuesday. – *

*** The bugs were not “undiscovered”, Government Hackers spoke about this on Coast to Coast A.M. before the summer of 2002. Art Bell was the host. This program is not listed in the current Coast to Coast A.M. archives, at least I could not find it by searching ‘hackers’. 3 men who were quite ‘enthusiastic’ and talkative about their experience working for hackers for US Government agencies that ‘officially do not exist’ -one of them told us he has an ashtray with one of those officially non-existent agency’s official logo on it- told us that microsoft was fully aware of holes in their operating system but were not going to do anything about it because the government of the US liked it the way it was. They said it was simple for any hacker to get into your computer if you were ‘running windows’ -“Especially if you have printer sharing turned on.” && They also said they liked Apple Computers back then because it was possible to tell a Mac to do only one thing at a time, not like windows computers which could have all sorts of nonsense going on undetected in the background.  – AND Another Coast to Coast A.M. guest, much more recently, related talking to a computer pioneer a long time ago, when dial ups were the latest thing, and when the computer guy finished showing him something, he would not leave the room without shutting off his computer, and disconnecting the phone line from his computer. When the C2C guest asked the computer guy what that was all about, the computer guy said that he, as in insider, knew that the US Government could already get into anyone’s computer that was connected to Delphi or GEnie or AOL, even if the computer had been turned off. — And, now that almost every computer in the world has WiFi capabilities- you can never fully disconnect yourself from the possibility that they can turn your computer on and gather any information you have, or were ever connected to- any time they want to do that- With the possible exception that you might be ‘safe’ if you live inside a Faraday cage, a hundred feet or more beneath the surface of this planet. Welcome to the future, it sucks.  —jim w—   }

Fracking linked to Alberta earthquakes, study indicates  { * – Carmen Langer had just left his bed to grab a drink of water when he felt his house northeast of Peace River, Alta., begin to shake. – “At first I thought I wasn’t feeling very good that day… and it was just my blood sugar, but no, it shook pretty good,” Langer said about the Nov. 2 incident.

– Moments after the shaking stopped, his neighbours were calling, asking if he had felt what they just felt. – “After a few minutes, I realized it was an earthquake,” Langer said. – There was a small earthquake on Nov. 2 in Peace River, just northeast of Peace River. The recently published study involving Alberta researcher Jeff Gu indicates fracking may trigger earthquakes in the province.  – Natural Resources Canada (NRC) registered a small, 3.0-magnitude earthquake that was “lightly felt” from Three Creeks to St. Isidor in northern Alberta at 11:14 p.m. MT. NRC said on its website there were no reports of damage, and that “none would be expected.” – Jeff Gu, a seismologist at the University of Alberta, said the earthquake could have been caused by shifting rock formations in the region — but added there could be another possible explanation. – “Certainly that region is not immune to earthquake faulting, but I would say having actual earthquakes in that area is relatively recent, relatively new,” he said. – Gu is one of three authors of a recently published study in the Journal of Geophysical Research, a peer-reviewed publication that looked at four years of earthquake data around Rocky Mountain House. The study concludes that waste-water injection into the ground is highly correlated with spikes in earthquake activity in the area. – It is the first study of its kind conducted in Canada that links industrial activity to induced earthquakes. – “The conclusion was that the industrial activities could, in some cases, potentially trigger or facilitate earthquake occurrences,” Gu said. – Alberta earthquakes increasing – Since 1985, fewer than 15 earthquakes above a 3.0 magnitude have been recorded anywhere in Alberta, according to the Alberta Geological Survey’s website. There has been an increase in earthquake activity since the 1960s, the organization says. – The Peace River earthquake is not the only one that has shaken the province in the past few months:

  • In October, a 2.7-magnitude quake was recorded about four kilometres southwest of Banff.
  • In August, a 4.3-magnitude earthquake was registered near Rocky Mountain House, causing about 500 customers in the area to lose power for several hours.

– Gu said the research into whether waste-water induction and fracking are related to earthquakes is still “really a work in progress.” –  “There has been more and more evidence, increasing evidence, in the last few years in particular — in Arkansas, in Texas and actually more recently here,” Gu said. – But he said there is nothing to fear right now. – “I’m not worried until we get a conclusive answer on whether these are caused by industry or not, whether they are naturally occurring,” Gu said. – Langer, however, is worried. – “With all the stuff that’s going on in my community, I’m feeling quite concerned about it,” he said. “We’re having all kinds of environmental problems in the community… Something has to give here.” – *  —djo—   }

Oil companies are lying, artificially inflating prices and threatening and bribing elected officials around the world. New Oil Discoveries in Texas are being made all the time. Farmers sell their rights to the highest bidder, then learn that what they just signed makes it against the law for them to share the details. The oil companies could be pumping zillions of gallons of cheap crude out of US wells, but do not want to flood the market, want to keep up the illusion of dwindling supplies so they can keep robbing you blind. I don’t believe that public evisceration of every oil company executive in this world would be cruel or unusual after what they’ve done to honest citizens of every nation on this planet in the last century. *  —djo—   }

When the C2C guest asked the computer guy what that was all about, the computer guy said that he, as in insider, knew that the US Government could already get into anyone’s computer that was connected to Delphi or GEnie or AOL, even if the computer had been turned off. — And, now that almost every computer in the world has WiFi capabilities- you can never fully disconnect yourself from the possibility that they can turn your computer on and gather any information you have, or were ever connected to- any time they want to do that- With the possible exception that you might be ‘safe’ if you live inside a Faraday cage, a hundred feet or more beneath the surface of this planet. Welcome to the future, it sucks.  —jim w—   }

Fracking linked to Alberta earthquakes, study indicates  { * – Carmen Langer had just left his bed to grab a drink of water when he felt his house northeast of Peace River, Alta., begin to shake. – “At first I thought I wasn’t feeling very good that day… and it was just my blood sugar, but no, it shook pretty good,” Langer said about the Nov. 2 incident.

– Moments after the shaking stopped, his neighbours were calling, asking if he had felt what they just felt. – “After a few minutes, I realized it was an earthquake,” Langer said. – There was a small earthquake on Nov. 2 in Peace River, just northeast of Peace River. The recently published study involving Alberta researcher Jeff Gu indicates fracking may trigger earthquakes in the province.  – Natural Resources Canada (NRC) registered a small, 3.0-magnitude earthquake that was “lightly felt” from Three Creeks to St. Isidor in northern Alberta at 11:14 p.m. MT. NRC said on its website there were no reports of damage, and that “none would be expected.” – Jeff Gu, a seismologist at the University of Alberta, said the earthquake could have been caused by shifting rock formations in the region — but added there could be another possible explanation. – “Certainly that region is not immune to earthquake faulting, but I would say having actual earthquakes in that area is relatively recent, relatively new,” he said. – Gu is one of three authors of a recently published study in the Journal of Geophysical Research, a peer-reviewed publication that looked at four years of earthquake data around Rocky Mountain House. The study concludes that waste-water injection into the ground is highly correlated with spikes in earthquake activity in the area. – It is the first study of its kind conducted in Canada that links industrial activity to induced earthquakes. – “The conclusion was that the industrial activities could, in some cases, potentially trigger or facilitate earthquake occurrences,” Gu said. – Alberta earthquakes increasing – Since 1985, fewer than 15 earthquakes above a 3.0 magnitude have been recorded anywhere in Alberta, according to the Alberta Geological Survey’s website. There has been an increase in earthquake activity since the 1960s, the organization says. – The Peace River earthquake is not the only one that has shaken the province in the past few months:

  • In October, a 2.7-magnitude quake was recorded about four kilometres southwest of Banff.
  • In August, a 4.3-magnitude earthquake was registered near Rocky Mountain House, causing about 500 customers in the area to lose power for several hours.

– Gu said the research into whether waste-water induction and fracking are related to earthquakes is still “really a work in progress.” –  “There has been more and more evidence, increasing evidence, in the last few years in particular — in Arkansas, in Texas and actually more recently here,” Gu said. – But he said there is nothing to fear right now. – “I’m not worried until we get a conclusive answer on whether these are caused by industry or not, whether they are naturally occurring,” Gu said. – Langer, however, is worried. – “With all the stuff that’s going on in my community, I’m feeling quite concerned about it,” he said. “We’re having all kinds of environmental problems in the community… Something has to give here.” – *  —djo—   }

Apparently, the mounty (“RCMP Officer”)  who acted the part of the crime boss (and got the alleged perpetrator to brag about his alleged crime in order for the perpetrator to secure a lucrative position inside the fictitious crime family) believed he had done what needed to be done to protect law abiding citizens from criminals and other monsters. }

The ‘very troubling’ statement came from the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development’s office. This is a cabinet level appointment (We call them Secretaries of whatever, Canadians call them Ministers of whatever.) The current Prime Minister and just about all of his appointees have the same party line and philosophy that believes it is perfectly correct to seize the property of a laid off worker who can’t pay his taxes (& whose 25 years with a company ((that closed down their Canadian operation and moved to some country where unions don’t stand a chance and virtual slavery in ‘employment’ is encouraged))– left him without a job and without a prayer for any kind of compensation, sometimes even without a pension ((although Canadians can get an ‘Old Age Pension’, supplemented income— for now anyway— unless the Conservatives get their way))- ), but they won’t touch corporations who thumb their noses at regulations and owe thousands of times more money in unpaid taxes and fees. }

Canada Post thefts halt Lens Rentals Canada service   { The ‘current government’ ((regime?)) in Canada wants to dismantle Canada Post (their postal service) the same way the conservative Republicans in the US would like to dismantle the US Postal Service and sell off the rights to deliver mail and parcels to ‘Private Business Interests’. [ Remember that the definition of a Fascist Government is one that is in bed with Corporate Powers ((a.k.a. : “Banksters”)) ]  So I’m a bit suspicious here…. Lens Rentals Canada is a company that rents high-end camera lenses and other equipment to photographers across the country. Several of its packages that had been mailed through the Canada Post were apparently stolen out of a Canada Post facility in Mississauga, Ontario, ((In the western reaches of the ‘Greater Toronto Area’)). Lens Rental Canada has stopped taking orders and is shipping stuff that has already been ordered through Purolator, which is ‘majority owned by Canada Post’ but does not share any aspects of the Canada Post delivery network. }

Saskatchewan Government Orders SaskPower to remove Smart Meters = Fire Hazard

((( Sounds like a busy night for Coast to Coast am News Watchers.)))

Scrolling headlines in the ‘Crawl’ on the CBC News Channel here has a couple interesting items. One is the blurb about the Province Of Saskatchwan’s  Government Ordering their power company to end its Smart Meter Programme.  The first couple times I saw the message it said “Sask Power to remove Smart Meters over Fire Hazard”. Somebody changed the Message to read, “Saskatchewan Gov’t Orders SaskPower to End Smart Meter Program”

Another Message of Note: “Excessive drinking of Soda Impairs Teenagers’ Brains”

‘Gas company sues tiny village for $1.5M – 5 times its annual budget’  ((I have to link this one)) —> Town of 168 People in Quebec <— Because the village passed a by-law establishing a no-drill zone near its potable water sources. (Radio-Canada)

“New Brunswick” { since I connected with the CBC website with this laptop one time while visiting somebody in New Brunswick, the internet must believe I’m still there. }

*Shale gas protesters sentenced to 15 months for violent clash with RCMP { *** Jim talked with some First Nations people up there who were sure that some of the fires that disabled obsolete police cruisers were started by angry ‘forest people’ (we might know them as leprechauns or angry faeries or ‘elementals’). Others believe the RCMP set their own cruisers on fire in order to get newer and better ones.*** }

Red bracelets thanking the RCMP being sold in Moncton { A high profile case in Monctor, NB hit the airwaves a couple months ago. A “troubled” teenager shot five RCMP officers, 3 of them died. Our real ‘died in the wool hardcore conspiracy buffs’ immediately claimed, ‘this has all the earmarks of somebody who’d been programmed by MK-Ultra types and activated to go on a rampage and kill police officers’ — But the people in Moncton, New Brunswick do not believe there is an evil, twisted plot by a dark ops group of ‘Empathically-Challenged Wannabe String-pulling Secretive Elitists’ & want to show that they appreciate being protected by Serve and Protect type officers of the law. Meanwhile, officers of the law in the USA are forming groups and calling themselves “Oath Keepers” who believe they have pledged to protect the population of the USA “From all enemies, foreign and domestic” and will not fire on unarmed civilians if ordered to. (( Would superior officers giving orders to fire on innocent, unarmed civilians then become one of those domestic enemies?)) I think the really scary part is that so many of them believe they just might be ordered to fire on unarmed civilians. }

Norovirus confirmed in Bathurst’s Chaleur Regional Hospital { Bathurst is in Northern New Brunswick. A college or university up there wants to close down their school of nursing. }

N.B. abortion access prompts St. John’s demonstration.  { This was an anti-abortion demonstration, I remember when a friend of mine wanted to stop at an anti abortion demonstration on State Street here in Ithaca and have the demonstrators sign petitions stating that they were ready to support the desperate mothers (regardless of any addictions and/or other problematic conditions) for at least 18 years and support any child that mother might have for 18 years (again, regardless of any health problems, physical or ‘other’) or until that child graduated from a college or university of the child’s choice (( at the demonstrators’ expense )) or, for the child’s entire life if he or she tested positive for any one of a number of “Challenges” such as intellectually or physical challenges or disabilities. He was ready to shout, ‘You do this and I’ll believe you’re actually committed to your cause.’ His fiancée at the time threatened to leave him. That relationship didn’t last very long. I can not take sides on this issue. I believe everybody has to make that decision for themselves (Preferably ‘Herself’) & I don’t know if anybody knows all the psychological, emotional, and spiritual implications and consequences of either choosing to abort or stopping someone else from making that choice. I’m really glad I’m not a woman. (& a couple women friends have accused me of being a coward for not supporting their side of this issue.  Quite a few, as a matter of fact, from both sides.)  }

“Analysis” The 100-year conflict that is the First World War still rages: Brian Stewart { This is the first time I’ve heard the First World War being referred to as another ‘Hundred Years War’. This could be depressing. Maybe most earthling humans never will be able to learn from the mistakes of their fathers and mothers? —— Of course they will, we are on an upward growth spurt as I write this. The ‘bad guys’ are making a last ditch, desperate effort to keep us all off balance so they can manipulate us into a constant state of fear, then, they believe, we will be most ‘manageable’. }

SARS was ‘wake-up call’ that could prevent Ebola spread to Canada, doctor says  { I visited somebody in the Greater Toronto Area while the SARS scare was going full blast. I saw the signs at the hospitals that basically read “If you’re sick, don’t come here”. I can’t believe that anybody, especially a doctor, would have the audacity to say anything like, ‘SARS just might have been a good thing’. Any doctor who said “Death is a really good cure for Cancer” would not be going much farther into the ‘stupid zone’ than that. }

There are 3 more featured headlines about the Ebola Outbreak and “6 ways to avoid illness when travelling’ from January 29th posted in the cue. { The conspiracy guys believe this a plot to convince everybody to line up for drugs we’re supposed to believe will keep us safe so the MK-Ultra Elitists can distribute an inoculation that will kill off billions of the ‘great unwashed’ so ‘they’ can tighten their grip on this world’s population, strengthen their mind-control abilities, and keep just enough ‘useless eaters’ around to be whipped into subservience, & slavery. But remember the palmistry guy from a couple days ago? (scroll down) -He is sure that the manipulating control freaks will lose their grip and fight among themselves, and kill each other off before they can see their evil twisted plots reach fruition. }

{ I would like to add a bit of “Prayer Works”, or for the militant agnostics out there: Scientists don’t know how it works, but “Positive Intention Works!” }

Monday, July 28, 2014.

We’re looking forward to tonight’s guest on Coast to Coast a.m., Peter Mathews. (<—- Link to his web site )

He has a book for sale on that web site, “Dollar Democracy:/with Liberty and Justice for Some;/ How to Reclaim the American Dream for All.” -by Peter Mathews.

I haven’t read the book, So I can’t add it to our “Must Reads” yet. But scanning his web site (“Powered by WordPress.org”) looks encouraging.

Dr Mary’s Monkey (( The Mother of Many Conspiracies?))

Sunday, July 27th, 2014

Sunday, July 27, 2014.

This is another “Must Read” that I first heard about while listening intently to Coast to Coast a.m. If you never heard about this, you’re in for a shock and at least a little bit of disbelief.

Dr. Mary Sherman was a Cancer Research Expert and Professor at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana (U.S.A.). She was recruited to help a group of scientists who were working on a top secret project. The project was so sensitive that her assistant was given a body guard. Her assistant’s body guard was a C.I.A. agent named Lee Harvey Oswald. She was working directly with a character you may have heard of if you’ve paid any attention at all to all the conspiracy theories around JFK’s assassination, David Ferrie.

The project she was working on involved a very virulent cancer causing virus that had been nicknamed “The Monkey Virus”. The ‘top’ US “Intelligence” agencies wanted to develop a way they could infect Fidel Castro with this virus.

Here’s a question for you, “Did the introduction of antibiotics after World War II trigger the Polio Epidemic?” —Antibiotics kill off the good bacteria. When the good bacteria can’t keep intestinal fungus in check because they’ve been killed off, the fungus grows and puts its roots through your intestinal walls. The polio ‘germs’ can then get through your intestines and into your blood stream and work their way to your brain where the polio begins eating your nervous system. That’s when Polio does its dirty work.

Two things probably got Dr. Mary murdered. One thing was, she knew Lee Harvey Oswald and knew that the profile of this man, which was made public when he was assassinated and charged with assassinating JFK when he couldn’t defend himself, had nothing to do with the real person that was Lee Harvey Oswald.

The other thing that may have gotten Dr. Mary murdered was the fact that she knew that the deadly Monkey Virus had contaminated millions of doses of Polio Vaccine and that this contaminated vaccine was distributed and given to virtually every child in the U.S.A.

Dr. Mary Sherman was probably murdered by somebody using a high voltage particle accelerator. There is a possibility that somebody sabotaged the particle accelerator and she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Her right arm and the right side of her chest were incinerated, basically disintegrated, including her ribcage. Somebody stabbed her in the heart, either to mercifully allow her to die in shock and not have to suffer through waking up with part of her body missing, intestines all over the place, liver hanging out… Or- to make sure she was completely dead and couldn’t tell anybody anything. She probably died in the Federal Research Laboratory near or at Tulane University. Her body was discovered in her home. Somebody moved her body there, thus removing the jurisdiction from the Federal Government (as in the F.B.I.)

There is a whole lot more to this story, you’ll have to read the book. Or, if at all possible, subscribe to Coast to Coast a.m. podcasts and listen to July 26th, 2014’s interview with Edward T. Haslam. (and as many previous interviews with this guy as you can find.)

Manipulating Economic Collapse – 101 (((?)))

Saturday, July 26th, 2014

—Here’s another goody from “Independent Canadian News”. I should warn you, The reporter tells everybody never to take anything he says as coming from the mouth of God, delivered to us by angels who can’t make mistakes, check out everything anybody says and test it every way you can think of before you decide whether to embrace it or not….

Ekonomics, Mind Control, Manipulation and Bright Futures Anyway?

Saturday, 26 July, 2014. -( 23°C / 73°F   Feels Like 25°C / 77°F @ Noon in Ithaca, NY, USA, Earth….)

While we were working on the Theme changes here the other night, the guests on C2C-a.m. were grumbling about the state of the world’s Ekonomics.

One guy was grumbling along the lines of, ‘We don’t want to open our doors so Mexican Economic Refugees can move in, get food stamps and sit around the hills of California, smoking marijuana.’ (And probably drooling over what they’re thinking about when our daughters walk by in their very short shorts and curve-hugging teenaged fashions?).

Do Americans really think like that these days?

For the second half of the show, good old George was interviewing an ex banker. The second guy wasn’t quite as bad as the first,  but he shared the vision or belief that evil, manipulating, wanna-be rulers of the world have been planning to undermine the Economies of the world and force everybody back into slavery and do anything they can to make life in the near future no fun at all.

There are constant reminders that build on the information, or theory, that dark brooding, evil, manipulating string pullers who think of themselves as puppeteers- are leading the unwashed masses anywhere they want to with their clever words and fear based propaganda. If that’s not enough- we’ve got the dark ops types getting all sorts of help from evil Nazi Scientists brought into the USA immediately after WWII (operation paper clip) -while the Russians were spiriting their evil nazi masterminds into behind the scenes sandboxes where they could learn how to use all the best nazi mind control techniques for their own ends.

So, to almost quote Maxwell Smart (the Don Adams version, from teevee way back when). “But 99, we have to torture, rape, kidnap and murder people.” To which Barbara Feldon as Agent 99 asks, “Why is that, Max?” To which question Maxwell Smart looks comically shocked, and answers, “Because We’re the Good Guys!”

———Okay, so Uranus is Retrograde and even us old, dyed in the wool, Conspiracy nuts are taking a step back and looking at things a little more deeply than usual and wondering if our self righteous, Holy, Rebellious Streaks are justified- I spent all day yesterday wondering how to write this up. I spent this morning puzzling over how important it is to recognize that, yes, there are evil manipulating mudder fuppers out there who really would love to manipulate everybody on the planet into slavery, or better yet, replace the necessary human laborers with robots who never balk at carrying out a difficult task, don’t breath the elitists’ air, or drink ‘their’ water… And yes, the demonic code of ethics applies here, they have to leak the news of their twisted plots and plans out, somehow- but they can do that by giving the information about their evil plans to crazy old men who nobody will take seriously… and yeah, maybe the bad guys are shifting into high gear to implement their evil schemes at a higher pace than before…

— But we were also looking at old posts and old pages and wondering if we should delete anything, and re-reading the ‘True Conspiracy’ posts were fun and made as much sense now as they did then…

***The U.S. War for Independence was fought over the fact that the Bank of England was demanding that the colonists pay their taxes in Bank Of England notes as much as anything else. “Taxation Without Representation” is easier to explain than to sit down and explain that those Bank of England bank notes were very hard to get a hold of in the colonies and therefore cost a whole lot more than their face value in England. Expecting the colonists, who had their own currency and were doing okay with it, to spend more than they had to buy pieces of paper that were bloody worthless over here and then smile and hand them back to the same banksters who sold them the Holy English fiat currency was like what happened in the old company towns before the bloody strikes and lucky laws that made Unions possible. The company owned the house you lived in and the only store you could buy your food and other ‘luxuries’ in, and they charged you more than they paid you to live in their apartment house slums and eat their rancid old food. “Ya move sixteen tons and what d’you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. Saint Peter don’tcha call me, cuz I can’t come, I owe my soul to the company store…”*** It’s like a Monty Python Routine, You pay somebody pennies a week and tell them they owe you them the rent in gold and diamonds. ***

But we got around that, didn’t we? We got a friendly president named Teddy Roosevelt to push through some Union-Friendly legislation and the world did not fall apart. No, the bankster types regrouped and began a whisper campaign to spread rumours about Union bosses being corrupt, and made sure they corrupted those Union bosses and drove the deep down fear into every dues paying union member that their hard earned wages were converted into union dues and went into the union bosses pockets so they could sit on their butts while you worked and sneak around and sweat talk your wife and daughter into a little on the side and…

Anyway- the puppeteers whispered their propaganda into your ears and made you think that all unions were evil and slowly, gradually, they had enough people believing their bull chips to raise a hue and cry and convince those hard working folks that they did not want the people that protect their wages and their conditions of work and all that, around any more.

*** “Banking Institutions are more dangerous than standing armies.” —Thomas Jefferson ***

The founding fathers managed to keep Corporations and Banksters out of the picture for two hundred years, which is probably quite a feat. Originally, corporations could only be formed and allowed to exist for a specific purpose for a specified length of time. When the time was up, the corporation’s assets were turned over to the highly ethical governments who would see that it was invested in a better standard of living for everybody, not just themselves, right? (Are you choking yet? I probably should have warned you not to eat anything with crumbs while you’re reading this.)

And then, in the 1930′s or thereabouts, Franklin D Roosevelt allowed himself to be convinced that the U.S. of A needed to go with the evil Bank of England’s model and form the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve is not a Branch of the Federal Government. It is a private club made up of banksters who sit around and dream up wonderful new ways to fleece the hardworking people of this great country out of more and more money. And money isn’t money anymore, it’s credit. It’s a pipe dream, it’s a promisary note. There are strong rumours that JFK was shot in the head in a public place as a warning to any other would-be statesmen who thought they could go up against the Federal Reserve and all the other evil dark manipulating monsters on the planet. JFK wanted to put the US back on the gold standard. He wanted to at least go onto the silver standard. Silver Certificates. These were U.S. Currency that were actually backed by physical bars of silver somewhere safe. But the banksters wanted to institute economic slavery and help the real bad guys reduce the population of the planet to something more manageable, more easily manipulated, poisoned with GMO mind altering substances that dulled their brains and made them more easy to hypnotize and control.

Werner Von Braun was a one of the paper clipped nazis who came over to our side and helped the U.S. build rockets and stuff (( while other Nazi scientists and mind benders like Dr Josef Mengele taught the C.I.A. how to brutalize, torture, torment and rape children to break their minds and turn them into highly controllable spies, sex slaves, disposable doers of dirty deeds… This is the MK-Ultra stuff we’ve been hearing about, and according to one of the few survivors (The officials have a policy of terminating their subjects before they reach the age of thirty, because then too many of them begin to remember things they were conditioned into forgetting.) Some Politician you were taught to believe were cute and cuddly and wouldn’t hurt a flea— were part of this.  )) Werner Von Braun told friends that he had information that what would happen after 1946 or so was: the evil dark manipulating puppeteers would have everybody believe that there were Russian Communists hiding under their beds, ready to rape their kids, kill and eat them. And when the Russian Commies weren’t a bad enough evil empire of credible boogy men any more, the next big threat would be “Rogue Nations” (( refined into: “Terrorists”, or haven’t you noticed that “Terrorist Plots” have replaced “Communist Plots” as the red hearing bugaboo of choice lately? )) And when the population at large no longer jumped in terror and snapped to attention and handed over all their freedoms and rights at the mere thought that terrorists were sneaking around, trying to kill and eat their children, the next ‘False Flag’ fiasco would happen when things that looked like flying saucers from other planets filled the skies and reigned death rays and mega destructive things like that down on the good people of this earth. I know several people who are not brain dead weirdoes who believe that energy beam weapons liquified the metal in the twin towers on THAT DAY in September of 2001.

So, yes, evil manipulating cork socking mudder fuppers are sneaking around looking like friendly neighborhood banksters, plotting to destroy every little bit of your peace of mind, and convince you that you can’t afford the food they’re hoarding and yes, they own the armies and yes, they want you to riot because they get off on murdering the people they’ve manipulated into a state of fear.

But wait a minute. Too many of us are awake now. We realize that the social pyramid is an illusion. Too many people who have been told they have to support the elitists at the top of the non-existent, illusory pyramid have spanked the dust out of their jeans and walked away. In about thirty seconds the fools who believe they are the top of the pyramid are going to realize that there is nobody holding them up any more and they’re going to crash. Hard. Try not to be under them when they hit the pavement.

*********************************

Oh, wait a minute, what was I thinking indicated that we have a bright future ahead of us?

From Independent Canadian News: A “Must Read” Review -by ‘Aerendel-Jim’

Thursday, July 24th, 2014

Saturday, 26 July, 2014. (( I will pre-date this article from the “Independent Canadian News” to see if the graphic with its Formatting works and see if the Calendar knows about days that have already happened. -djo-))

A ‘Must Read’ I should have added before

Thursday, 24 July, 2014.

Book Cover

Nothing In This Book Is True, But It’s Exactly How Things Are” by Bob Frissell. Is a book with quite a title. (I think Amazon dot CA {Canada} has the kindle version for something like $8.34 Canadian$)

The first time I discovered the Radio Programme “Coast to Coast A.M.” (With Art Bell in those days) Bob Frissell was being interviewed on the subject of this book. I was immediately hooked— on both the talk radio late night programme and the book. It’s been a while since I first tried to absorb and understand what was in that book…

The author explained that beings in a civilization on Mars realized their planet was in danger of being completely wiped out, they looked around and built a time machine, jumped a million years into their future and landed on Earth. They immediately tried to conquer the locals, who happened to be the inhabitants of what we now call Atlantis. The Atlantians kicked their butts, and let them live. The aliens (which may be the greys that are famously abducting people these days?) waited a while and tried to conquer the Atlantians again. The Atlantians kicked their butts a second time and sort of confined them to a reservation somewhere around what is now the Yucatan area of Mexico. When these aliens came to the conclusion that a comet was going to collide with the Earth, they went to the Atlantians and said they could take care of the comet for them. But the Atlantians told them that the Comet was God’s Will and wouldn’t endorse their plan. The aliens then tried to rebuild their time machine but got something wrong and when they tried to use it, they tore the fabric of whatever maintained the inter-dimensional integrity around here and instantaneously knocked the planet from ‘Golden Age’ status way down ‘Everybody on the planet got real stupid real fast’ status, and other dimensional creatures that should not be, don’t like it here, don’t want to be here — were released and began to mess with our peace of mind.

I came away thinking that if this was not the literal Truth of our pre-recorded History (Or history that had been recorded and then lost when idiots burned down the Great Library in Alexandria)- Then it might be sort of Poetically True, like a parable, or something the author could get away with saying because the forces of darkness and evil would have torn him apart and burned his manuscripts if he tried to tell the actual truth.

There’s a whole lot more to this book, and to the author. And I am desperate to get my hands on another copy of this and see if I can absorb and digest any more than I did last time ((Now that my ego believes I might have more wisdom and the ability to see through b.s. a little more clearly than I could twenty years ago?)) — Something like that.

I think somebody has a kindle version of the book available for some weird price like $5.88. Check it out of the Startpage https search engine. Go find the startpage search engine first. The link above this might help. (But look out, it looks like a state sponsored malware program/virus has been launched to discredit the anti spyware advocates who created the startpage search engine).
