Obama administration declares war on Syria

Deborah Lee James, Secretary for the US Air Force, revealed that the military plan for Syria is to occupy it with boots on the ground and then rule over it. This is an open declaration of war and conquest. InfoWars 2015 Nov 11 (Story) (Cached)

He who lives by the sword

The three articles posted at the top of this week’s edition tell quite a story beyond the words themselves – actually, several stories.

One is that, ever since the UN was created after World War II, supposedly to put an end to war, the number of wars, and the number of people suffering from the horrors of war, have steadily climbed to the point where, today, war is the main preoccupation of mankind. In fact, the planet seems to be tottering on the edge of a great precipice much too casually referred to as WWIII.

The other story is that the United States, whose father warned in his Farewell Address against the dangers of foreign entanglements, now is the primary instigator of foreign entanglements and military intervention.

It is astounding and frightening that a fairly obscure civil servant, appointed by the President, can hold a press conference and declare war on another nation without even a ripple of objection in Congress or mainstream media. That was the essence of the announcement made last week by Deborah Lee James, Secretary for the US Air Force, when she calmly explained that the US military intends to occupy Syria with ground soldiers and then rule over it.

Actions have consequences, and we know what the consequences are of aggressive wars. (I have no quarrel with defensive wars if that’s what they really are and not just a pretense. A military attack on a nation to bring about a regime change that will be to our liking or benefit is not a defensive war.)

It is true that aggressors are respected out of fear, but it also is true that they are hated by a vast, unseen army of victims who wait for the day of revenge.

Eventually, the aggressor becomes exhausted and vulnerable. When that day arrives, the Gods of the Copybook Headings will speak once again:
He who lives by the sword, dies by the sword.

US Secretary-of-State John Kerry made surprising comments about the upcoming UN climate conference in Paris next month. He said that it will not result in a treaty nor will there be any legally binding greenhouse-gas limits. [Since Kerry is known to be a supporter of the treaty and legally binding limits on greenhouse gases, we can’t help wondering if he is making these statements to cause treaty opponents to become overly confident and lower their guard. We shall see.] AFP 2015 Nov 12 (Story) (Cached)

Sacramento officials secretly added cancer-causing chemicals to the water supply. The first chemical was aluminum chlorohydrate, which is believed by many scientists to cause Alzheimer’s. The aluminum was supposed to save money by removing sediment, but it proved to be ineffective. Next, large quantities of chlorine were added, and the two chemicals formed into carcinogenic byproducts known as “DBPs” which are disinfection byproducts. Levels of this toxin still are above safe limits set by the EPA. AntiMedia posted 2015 Nov 7 (Story) (Cached)

Marxism is alive and well on American campuses. Keely Mullen, a representative of the Million-Student March, says that the group is demanding free public college, cancellation of student debt, and a $15 per-hour minimum wage for campus workers. When asked who would pay for this, she had no immediate answer, but finally fell back to her core belief that all these goodies should be paid for by the super wealthy. When asked who would pay when the super wealthy left the country or were pauperized by taxes, she responded that there always would be enough to carry the load. Fox Business News 2015 Nov 12 (Story)

I am fed up to my burning ears with Cart Blanc castigation of Conservatives! The other day I accidentally landed on MSNBC just in time to hear a discussion about Conservatives and their lack of compassion for the fate of the poor. Said the spokeswoman, with great authority, “Conservatives always talk about the family and about spending time with your kids. And they say all you have to do is pull yourself up by your boot straps to get ahead.” Then with great disdain she said, …” (More)

Author, Roger Stone, says that the ‘Obama Phone’ campaign was a moneymaker for Jeb Bush because he was an investor in the cell-phone company that prospered from the government contracts.

Ukraine: Star Wars character, Darth Vader, was named on the ballot in the mayoral race in Odessa, and his bloc also ran for council seats in the Odessa district. What appears on the surface to be humor is a cover for vote fraud. In Ukraine, it is common for leading candidates to sponsor what are called “technical” candidates to run against themselves. The purpose is, not to win, but to get seats on vote-counting committees. If those can be loaded, then vote fraud is easy. Washington Post posted 2015 Nov 7 (Story) (Cached)

WILL THE CORPORATE STRUCTURE OF WASHINGTON DC BE DISCUSSED AT THE COMING FREEDOM FORCE CONGRESS?
2015 Nov 12 from P. Carminati
Will the secret 1871 creation of an LLC to incorporate Washington, DC with the ropes of control given to the British queen be discussed here? That’s 144 years ago in the month of December. Corporate force took over in January, 1872.

Prior to that, there was the British with the French to split this country in two with the carefully engineered fraud called the Confederacy. Lincoln was too good a man for them so they paid a useful idiot from the south to assassinate him. Those were the major “Red Flag” events that have destroyed our freedom. The actual desire to split was evident as far back as 1766 before the Constitution was created.

REPLY FROM GEG:
Hello P. Carminati.
The purpose of the coming Freedom Force Congress in Paso Robles is to focus on how to get already informed people who uphold The Creed of Freedom into political office so we can actually do something to bring about change in our system. All topics to be discussed will contain within them some element of appeal to the general public that will encourage them to look upon us as leaders in this effort. Without broad public support, freedom candidates will not be elected.

Education on such matters that you have mentioned is important for understanding the path we have traveled – and I am glad there are organizations doing that – but our mission cuts beyond that process and asks the question: “How do we place people who already know this history and who uphold the principles in The Creed of Freedom into political office?” If we fail to do that, nothing will change. I hope you can join with us in this bold undertaking.

FEAR
2015 Nov 12 from Steven Hanson
Dear Ed, The people who “run” (missing an “i”) our country use two aspects of fear to control us, in my humble opinion. The first is the unease we feel when having to count on the truthfulness of words coming out of our politician’s mouths. Even those who don’t understand why falsehoods are bad still don’t feel at ease when they hear them. They deny their own gut feelings that tell them they should be wary. It’s like walking down a dark alley and seeing the silhouette of a person you know is insane.

And the other aspect of fear is knowing that something you are doing is breaking the law or an ordinance or a rule of some kind. We’ve literally become a nation of lawbreakers. Up where I live you can’t even burn firewood in some of the towns, because someone has deemed it unhealthy. This is in spite of the fact that generations of families have lived up here and burned wood for heat. Coincidentally, natural gas has recently been piped into these towns and will become a source of “revenue” for the township. Tony Soprano would be proud and envious.

The thought of going to jail for some unreasonable violation brings with it, not just the length of time we might spend there, but what awaits us if we do. I think the reason we keep criminal psychopaths alive in our “correctional” facilities is, not to be humane, but to scare the living daylights out of the rest of us. If you break a law to stand up for something you believe in, not only do you spend time in jail, but you become a piece of meat for the wierdo spending the rest of his life in the bunk next to you.

The nasty little secret is that these monsters are used to keep us in line. So it’s fear being used to control us and to prey upon us. Maybe someday we’ll just get tired of it. I know I am.

MADE IN CHINA
2015 Nov 11 from Michael Xu
It is getting close to the holiday season. Those ornaments made in China remind me of the days I spent in a Chinese labor camp because of my belief.

Before I came to the United States in 2011, every single day, I was filled with fear and anxiety. For 18 months from 2002 to 2004, I was detained in a labor camp in Hubel Province just because I had practiced Falun Gong, a traditional Chinese meditation practice based on the principle of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance.

The Chinese Communist Party has been persecuting Falun Gong practitioners since 1999, putting millions of practitioners to prisons and labor camps. Thousand of them died from torture.

During the first three months in the labor camp, I was forced to sit on a little stool from 6 a.m. until midnight and watch videos slandering Falun Gong. The labor camp assigned two drug addicts to monitor me 24/7. They beat me whenever I moved or closed my eyes.

Throughout the rest of my detention, I was forced to do slave labor every day by assembling paper boxes and gift bags.

My roommate Jixiang Wan, another Falun Gong practitioner, was sentenced to three years in prison in 2003. To force him to give up his belief, the Hubel police used a cigarette lighter to burn his chin.

They beat him so violently that he lost all hearing in his left ear. Jixiang never finished his prison term. His health deteriorated during his time in prison. He died in May 2005 at the age of 37.

As a survivor of the persecution, I hope my voice can support my fellow practitioners in China who risk their lives to disclose the Communist regime’s brutal persecution toward the most peaceful group in the world.

WHEN LIARS MAKE THE LAWS AND RUN THE COURTS, HOW DO YOU OUTLAW LYING?
2015 Nov. 7 from Steven Hanson
Dear Ed, The one common denominator in so many of the issues you so elegantly help us see is the lies that are probably at the bottom of the issue. The global warming myth is the perfect example. It’s apparently based upon untruths and we don’t have a court which allows us to challenge the veracity of the science used to fuel the laws that are being shoved down our throats.

Lying, obfuscation, deception just seems to be the order of the day and standard operating procedure. The feeling of hopelessness that permeates our political landscape is caused by the understanding that almost nothing we hear is true.

Lying should be a punishable offense, and when the lies are issuing from our “leaders”, the punishment should be extremely severe. They only understand fear. Reason, well that was canned a long time ago – just about at the same time as lies became acceptable.
