We believe every word in the KJV Bible and believe it is the Word of God and that Jesus is the Christ, God Himself, who spilled His blood on the cross for our sins and rose again to prepare a place for those who repent and accept 'His' righteousness as their righteousness and repent. They are those who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, Jews first and then Gentiles. "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." We invite you to take this opportunity to say 'yes' to Jesus and commit your life to Him only by clicking on this link: Salvation
Luke 12:20,21 "But God said unto him, "Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."
We pray the Lord will bless you with a thirst for truth and a desire to serve Him exclusively, in Christ Jesus, Cephas Ministry / Cephas Library.

MORE GREETINGS to all and the newcomers to this list. We'd like to introduce ourselves. George and Rita Williams founded this ministry. We were Mormons (Temple Mormons) for 20 years. We prayed to God in 1992 to allow us to do a ministry speaking out against Scientology. Six months later God led us to the truth: out of the cult of Mormonism. We did not know at the time we were in a cult. No-one had witnessed to us in 20 years.
The Holy Spirit brought us to information about all the cults and the present development of the New World Order. We began bringing our research to you. Because all the research was already done, we decided to build a library within Cephas Ministry. Our newsletters are not designed to provoke anger which is strictly prohibited in Scripture. It is to shed light on activities by those who would deceive those who are recorded in the Book of Life by devious methods and systematic plans.

We are Bible students and have left all worldly organizations. We attend church if the message is from the authorized KJV Bible. The focus of these newsletters is to prove why we had to leave the world system. We are called 'Watchmen on the Wall' which God always had during the Old / New Testament Times.
To understand what is happening, one has to know the Bible to compare notes.
The first section is about the church. The news about churches is unedited unless indicated by Ednotes. The church as we knew it, is undergoing disintegration. This began on a fast track in the early nineteen sixties when the Catholic Church produced liberal Vatican II to replace Vatican I.
The trend since then has been ecumenical which is truly what the word 'Catholicism' means: a universal religion all inclusive and multicultural. The Bible calls for a final church and today's church doesn't resemble what Jesus taught. The Word of God has undergone many changes to fit the progressive modes. Many new Bible tranlations have brought confusion. The Bible calls for a falling away from the truth before Jesus comes back for His Bride. The true believers are called 'Ekklesia.' Our newsletters prove this fact and prove that the Bible is true from beginning to end.
The second section is about globalism where we bring your attention to the social, political and global trend, the so called democratizing what is left of the world. This is a deception since the underlying new world global government is developed by implementing sustainable development. The Bible prophesies that there will be ten kings (ten horns), each king (horn) will receive a region of the world as a reward for work well done for the Antichrist. This is the reason for the present development of NAU (The North American Union) as well as the war in the Middle East. It again proves that we are moving to closure of the times of the Gentiles prophesied in the Bible. The end result will not be Democracy but a form of Fascist Communism (Public/Private Corporations enslaving mankind).
The third section compliments End Time teachings because Israel is the time piece of the Biblical Prophecy. 1948 was the beginning of the figtree representing Israel, coming back to life. Israel was allowed to return to its land. Israel is the rock upon which the world stumbles and crumbles. We watch and visit Israel for signs which point to the Tribulation to confirm that we are moving into that space of time.

Watchmen on the wall do not solicit memberships. We have an email group that gets information when we upload new information and newsletters whenever it is possible time wise. We love the Lord with all our hearts and minds and we love all people God has created but especially those who love our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

We trust that our readers will not be discouraged. It is God’s will that we know the times (1 Ch. 12:32; Mat. 16:3) and that we be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
The Cephas Newsletter reminds us that the hour is very late, and we need to be ready for the Lord’s coming. Are you sure that you are born again? Are you living for Christ?
 
"And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof" (Rom. 13:11-14).
 

 
PS We are seeking the truth and use much material from many sources only when we believe their material could be of service to you. That should not imply that we endorse ministries, news organizations or various authors. We are not all-knowing and cannot predict what people will write in the future. CMI

 
 

 



TAMING THE LION: 1st Peter 5:8

as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may
devour:" (1 Peter 5:8) - by Cephas (Author)

INTRODUCTION
To read this book requires love for the Gospel, if you don't you might as well put it away because you'll simply think it foolishness. The book proves that biblical truth is indeed truth that sustains us. No matter what happens to us we land on our feet and move on knowing we are only passing through. The world is irrelevant. What is relevant is our eternal life, where we'll spend it in heaven or hell. All human beings have eternal life but where they will spend it is the question.
This book will reveal the resistance we are up against in our enemy Satan who only works to undermine believers in Christ Jesus because Satan knows where he is going and wants all of humanity to join him. Those who already have sworn their allegiance to Satan are no problem to him. Like Jesus Christ, who preached only three years, was crucified because Satan hated Him, we become the object of Satan's hatred as well. Had Jesus weakened and let Satan tempt Him, He would have been King of this world for a season and the whole world would have ended up in hell forever.
Every man, woman, and child's salvation hung on one man. To prove to us that we can depend on Him forever, He weakened Himself by fasting 40 days before He was confronted with the offer to possess the whole world. If He was 100% human and 100% Spirit, He experienced everything humans do, yet gave Himself to be humiliated, be bled and died for our sakes who are completely undeserving as you will see in this book.
God knows our lot, that we have no chance of making it to Heaven on our own. We can try as hard as we want; Satan derails us at every turn without God's intervention. Most of us believe that we are good people and would not hurt anyone, go to church on Sunday and earn our wages by the sweat of our brow. That is well and good, but we tend to be rebels spiritually. We want to do it our way instead of studying the Bible we read other books and listen to evangelists in the hope that's going to get us to heaven. Nothing could be further from the truth. Continued:

HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE
April 29, 2009 - Brother bob...<>< {Please note: Many of these same Bible Study Tools are available free on-line for you to use anytime at http://www.biblestudytools.net . I also highly recommend the free Bible software available for download at E-sword, http://www.e-sword.net/downloads.html
Dear Friends in Christ, One important point to always remember as you approach studying God's Word is to submit yourself to the power and person of the Holy Spirit to teach you what His Word means. There are many teachers and preachers and writers of books and scholars who would like to tell you what they think the Bible means; but there is only One Holy Spirit who actually inspired the Bible and told the writers what to write. God therefore knows exactly what the Bible means . He is also waiting for you to yield yourself to His teaching as you study this Holy Book.

THE LITTLE HORN
"I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another LITTLE HORN ... in this horn were eyes like THE EYES OF MAN, and A MOUTH SPEAKING GREAT THINGS." (Daniel 7:8a,c) "And the TEN HORNS out of this (fourth ROMAN) kingdom are TEN KINGS that shall arise: and ANOTHER (horn, king) shall rise after them; and HE SHALL BE DIVERSE FROM THE FIRST, and he shall subdue three kings." (Daniel 7:24)"I beheld, and THE SAME HORN MADE WAR WITH THE SAINTS, and prevailed against them." (Daniel 7:21) The key thing to understand is that the little horn which is part of the fourth ROMAN beast is diverse from the ten other horns. The horns represent kings or lines of kings. How is this little horn diverse from the ten other European kings? First of all, I believe like many others before me that the little horn of Daniel chapter 7 and the son of perdition (false apostle) of 2nd Thessalonians chapter 2 refer to the same power or entity : the papacy (the line of popes). And both prophecies are associated with the prophecy of Mystery Babylon (Revelation chapter 17). Now that being said let us see how the little horn is diverse from the other kings:
1) the little horn is a bishop who is the ruler of his own religion
2) the little horn claims infallibility in matters of faith and practice
3) the little horn is responsible for our present Gregorian calendar
4) the little horn is an elected monarchy
5) the little horn rules (at least religiously) the subjects of other kings
6) the little horn's name is changed after coming to power (ex. Joseph Ratzinger did not become Pope Joseph but Pope Benedict XVI) whereas monarchs usually retain their original names after ascending to the throne (e.g. Elizabeth before becoming Queen Elizabeth, George before becoming King George, Louis before becoming King Louis) Continued: http://www.cephas-library.com/bible_the_little_horn.html

THE FALSE NIV SATANIC BIBLE
April 28, 2009 - In this teaching we will be taking an eye opening look the NIV bible: 'In 1988, Zondervan became a division of HarperCollins' If you visit online at Harpercollins.com, you will find some very evil books for sale that are published by this company like PRO-HOMOSEXUAL titles. And amidst these evil books, we find the following advertisement from this same publishing company: 'The foregoing is excerpted from 'Satanic Bible' by Anton La Vey. All rights reserved. No part of this book may be used or reproduced without written permission from HarperCollins Publishers, 10 East 53rd Street, New York, NY 10022' Notice that HarperCollins not only publishes homosexual books, they publish the 'Satanic Bible. Zondervan is a subsidiary of HarperCollins, which is owned by News Corp, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch. He is one of the biggest producers of worldwide pornography on the planet. And his company, Zondervan, holds the exclusive distribution rights to the NIV. This conglomerate also publishes 'Good News for Modern Man' and 'The Amplified Version.' We will also be looking at NIV Stylist, rabid lesbian, new ager and author of 'OmniGender: A Trans-Religious Approach' Virginia Mollenkott and THE CHAIRMAN OF THE NIV'S OLD TESTAMENT TRANSLATION COMMITTEE, Dr. Marten H. Woudstra, also a homosexual. We will then examine the two distinct streams of Bibles that have resulted in all the translations available today: One Stream Pure one Stream Corrupt. http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=730072143

GOD SPOKE THE HEAVEN AND EARTH INTO EXISTENCE OUT OF NOTHING
BASIC BIBLE DOCTRINE
(Gen 1:1-25 KJV)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
{2} And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
{3}
AND GOD SAID, LET THERE BE LIGHT : and there was light.
{4} And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
{5} And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.
And the evening and the morning were the first day.
{6}
AND GOD SAID, LET THERE BE A FIRMAMENT in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
{7} And God made the firmament,
and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
{8} And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
{9}
AND GOD SAID, LET THE WATERS UNDER HEAVEN BE GATHERED together unto one place,
and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
{10} And God called the dry land Earth;
and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

GOOD FIGHT MINISTRIES - Lessons from the Alabama Massacre
In the wake of Alabama’s worst mass shooting in the state’s history, many Americans have been left dumbfounded as the nation mourns and wonders how a young man could murder 11 people in cold blood. Many are still shocked that mass school shooting and murder sprees have become common place in the United States, and I ask: “Why?” Continued: http://cupofjoe.goodfight.org

POPE DOESN'T PRAY BUT REFLECTS AT JORDAN MOSQUE
By VICTOR L. SIMPSON, Associated Press Writer Victor L. Simpson, Associated Press Writer – Sat May 9, 12:00 pm ET - AMMAN, Jordan – The top religious adviser to Jordan's king thanked Pope Benedict XVI on Saturday for expressing regret after a speech that many Muslims deemed insulting to the Prophet Muhammad but complained the West continues to have a distorted view of Islam. Prince Ghazi bin Mohammed delivered his assessment after giving Benedict a tour of the biggest mosque in Amman — the pope's second visit to a Muslim place of worship since becoming pope in 2005. Benedict is in Jordan on his first Middle East tour in which he hopes to improve strained ties with both Muslims and Jews. The 82-year-old German pope had a busy agenda Saturday as he traveled to a memorial to Moses, met with an Iraqi Christian leader and urged the international community to do everything possible for the survival of the ancient Christian community in that war-torn country.

GROUP SAYS ISRAEL PLAN TO CEMENT HOLD ON JERUSALEM
AP – A Palestinian Christian boy holds a candle during Sunday mass at the Church of the Nativity, traditionally …
AP By MATTI FRIEDMAN, Associated Press Writer Matti Friedman, Associated Press Writer – Sun May 10,
JERUSALEM – An Israeli government plan to develop parks, hiking trails and tourist sites in east Jerusalem will permanently change the landscape of the contested city and cement Israel's hold there, an Israeli group charged in a report released Sunday ahead of the pope's visit to the city. The government has undertaken an ambitious eight-year plan that will dramatically alter the "holy basin" — the sensitive area in and around the Old City that is home to sites holy to Jews, Christians and Muslims, according to the group, Ir Amim, which works for coexistence in Jerusalem.
The government has largely kept the plan secret, not soliciting input from the city's Christians and Muslims or opening it to objections from the public, the group charges. "It's being done in a way that is opaque, with no public knowledge, without coordination with the churches or with the Muslim Waqf, in the precise opposite of transparent terms," Daniel Seidemann, the Israeli attorney who founded Ir Amim, said Sunday. The Waqf is the custodian of Islamic holy sites in the city. The park plan could destabilize Jerusalem and is "an act of colossal irresponsibility," Seidemann said. The Israeli government says the new development will benefit all of Jerusalem's residents. An official in the prime minister's office noted that under Israeli control, people of all faiths have had access to their holy sites in the city. "The government will continue to develop Jerusalem, development that will benefit all of Jerusalem's diverse population and respect the different faiths and communities that together make Jerusalem such a special city," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity pending a formal statement from the government.Continued:

THE IMMINENT DEMISE OF AMERICA?
By Dene McGriff - If you are reading this, you may well be sonsidered a terrorist according to a “threat analysis” by the Department of Homeland Security dated April 7, 2009 titled "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment." The purpose of this "one of a series" of threat analysis is "to facilitate a greater understanding of the phenomenon of violent radicalization in the United States" so that all "law enforcement officials... may effectively deter, prevent, preempt, or respond to terrorist attacks against the United States." Their concern is fueled because of those who believe in "'end times' prophecies." The document says end-time Bible prophecy teachings "have been linked with the radicalization of domestic extremist individuals and groups in the past, such as violent Christian Identity organizations and extremist members of the militia movement." So if you are reading this website, be warned. You could be labeled a “terrorist” or a “radical”. More on this in a moment.
Recently a “Hate Crimes” bill was passed by the House. “On a vote of 249-175, the House passed and sent to the Senate a bill backed by the new Democratic White House to broaden such laws by classifying as "hate crimes" those attacks based on a victim's sexual orientation, gender identity or mental or physical disability.” Christian activists believe that if passed and signed into law, the legislation could be used to target Americans who voice their opposition to the homosexual lifestyle – including pastors preaching and reading the Bible. "Passage would literally throw open the door to attacks against people of faith, who could be prosecuted with federal monies for expressing their views on homosexuality!" warns Gary Cass, executive director of the Center for Reclaiming America. Some believe that if passed and signed into law, the legislation could be used to target Christians. More on this later also…
And then we have the swine flu pandemic. Nothing creates more of a sense of urgency, if not out and out panic as a pandemic. I’m not going into detail. You can Google this yourself. Some believe this is genetically engineered (as was AIDS, Ebola, Lime Disease, etc.) at best by the Pharmacy companies to make money (create the problem and provide the solution) or at worst as an evil cabal intent on thinning the population. Some are warning of forced vaccinations. I think it’s over for now.
Obama is increasing debt at the most alarming rate in the history of the country. At the rate he is going, he will create more government debt in his first four years than all administrations before him combined. Billions are flowing into the corrupt banking system and nothing seems to be working. Banks, insurance companies and some of the largest corporations in America are being nationalized. The nation is falling into the deepest and longest recession since the Great Depression. So what does this mean? America will come out stronger or is all of this activism only making things worse?
In another move, Obama is creating a youth brigade. The bill is entitled “Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education” (GIVE) and requires anyone receiving school loans and others receiving aid to serve at least three months as part of the youth brigade. His goal is one million youth! The Bill, HR 1388, would forbid any student in the brigade to participate in “engaging in religious instruction, conducting worship services, providing instruction as part of a program that includes mandatory religious instruction or worship, constructing or operating facilities devoted to religious instruction or worship, maintaining facilities primarily or inherently devoted to religious instruction or worship, or engaging in any form of religious proselytization.” That means no church attendance or witnessing. Some liken it to Kennedy’s Peace Corps and others to Hitler’s Youth. More on this in a moment.
So what do we have? Christians who talk about end times prophecy may be guilty of sedition. Youth in government programs are forbidden to go to church. And, it is becoming a hate crime (already is in Canada) to speak your conscience based on Biblical teachings. A pandemic may be unfolding daily before our eyes, if not this time, maybe the next. And the final topic is the economy. What does this mean? Where does this leave America? What does this mean in terms of prophecy? How does this all fit? Believe me it does!

LAW OF THE LAND [IN CANADA 2004]
'Bible as hate speech' signed into law - Canadian measure said to 'chill' opposition to homosexual behavior
April 30, 2004 - WorldNetDaily.com - Canada's governor general, the representative of Queen Elizabeth II, signed into law yesterday a controversial measure opposed by religious believers and free-speech advocates who say it will criminalize public expression against homosexual behavior. The bill, passed 59-11 by the Senate on Wednesday, adds sexual orientation as a protected category in Canada's genocide and hate-crimes legislation, which carries a penalty of up to five years in prison. The House of Commons passed the bill in September, 141-110. Continued

LET THE TRACKING BEGIN
TOP LAWMAKER WANTS MILEAGE-BASED TAX ON VEHICLES
By JOAN LOWY - 04.28.09 - Yahoo! Buzz "Why do we need a pilot program? Why don't we just phase it in?" said Oberstar, the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee chairman. Oberstar is drafting a six-year transportation bill to fund highway and transit programs that is expected to total around a half trillion dollars.
A congressionally mandated commission on transportation financing alternatives recommended switching to a vehicle-miles traveled tax, but estimated it would take a decade to put a national system in place. (Dead link)

NYC STARTS CHANGING RENT AT HOMELESS SHELTERS
By JENNIFER MILLMAN - May 9, 2009 - Even the homeless can't escape the high price of a night in New York City. City officials this month began charging rent to working families staying in public homeless shelters. The policy stems from a 1997 state law that hasn't been enforced until now. Under that law, shelter managers started to require families to pay a portion of their income, depending on the shelter and family size, according to The New York Times. Residents could be expected to pay up to half their earnings. Some shelter residents say the new rule will ruin their chances of saving enough money to get an apartment.
One single mother living in a Manhattan shelter tells the Times she got a letter saying she had to give up $336 of the $800 she makes each month as a cashier. Vanessa Dacosta makes $8.40 an hour at Sbarro. She got a letter under her door at the shelter a few weeks ago saying she'd have to fork up nearly half of what she was bringing in.
For Dacosta, who pays nearly $100 a week on child care for her 2-year-old, paying the shelter is hardly an expense she can afford. Continued: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/City-Starts-Charging-Rent-at-Homeless-Shelters.html

NEW RIVERSIDE CHURCH PASTOR SAYS HIS RAISE WAS LORD-APPROVED - $600,000 IN SALARY AND PERKS DURING RECESSION
BY Bill Egbert - April 27th 2009 - DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Giancarli for News - Rev. Dr. Brad R. Braxton, Pastor of The Riverside Church.
Gonzalez: Riverside Church pastor's $600K compensation prompts parishioners' suit
Gonzalez: Head of Riverside Church defends pastor's heavenly windfall. Ex-Riverside pastor stays mum on new minister's pay
The incoming pastor of Riverside Church broke his silence over his massive pay package Saturday, saying God was behind him as he took the reins of the iconic Manhattan sanctuary. "God told me all week, 'I got you.'" the Rev. Brad Braxton said to thunderous applause.
Braxton was installed as senior pastor despite some parishioners filing a lawsuit to trim his $600,000 in salary and perks. The minister, a former professor at Vanderbilt University Divinity School, ascended to the pulpit to cheers from the congregation of 2,700. Braxton, 40, tackled the controversy over his compensation, saying critics were "mistaking molehills for mountains."

ENDOWMENT CEREMONY 'BIG LOVE' SCENE ANGERS MORMONS
By The Staff at wowOwow.com - The creators of HBO’s controversial polygamy drama "Big Love" are defending an upcoming episode that upset the Mormon community. Mormons have raised their fists because an upcoming episode of the HBO drama depicts an "endowment ceremony," one of the religion’s most sacred — and secretive — rituals. In the scene, Barb (Jeanne Tripplehorn) goes through the endowment ceremony as she faces losing her membership in the Mormon Church. Church officials feel betrayed by the show’s producers because they were told that "Big Love" would not reflect mainstream Mormons, called The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints issued a statement on their official website:
Before the first season of the HBO series ‘Big Love’ aired more than two years ago, the show’s creators and HBO executives assured the Church that the series wouldn’t be about Mormons. However, Internet references to ‘Big Love’ indicate that more and more Mormon themes are now being woven into the show and that the characters are often unsympathetic figures who come across as narrow and self-righteous. And according to ‘TV Guide,’ it now seems the show’s writers are to depict what they understand to be sacred temple ceremonies.
The endowment ceremony is so sacred that participants aren’t to reveal any key words or symbols.
HBO, which is owned by AOL-Time Warner, issued an apology Tuesday to "those who may be offended." According to a network statement: Continued: http://www.wowowow.com/entertainment/endowment-ceremony-mormons-

POPE ANGERS ISRAEL WITH CALL FOR PALESTINIAN HOMELAND
James Hider in Jerusalem - Times Online - May 12, 2009 Pope Benedict XVI arrived in Israel yesterday to make an appeal for peace in the Middle East, calling for the creation of a Palestinian homeland alongside the Jewish state.
In his address after stepping off an aircraft from Jordan, the Pope — on his first trip to the Holy Land — made the first of a series of speeches calling for peace, justice and security. He has tried to avoid politics in what he says is a spiritual pilgrimage, but his call for a Palestinian homeland set him at odds with the right-wing Israeli Government, which has refused to back a two-state solution. Aware of the controversy over his reinstatement of a British-born bishop who denied the extent of the extermination of European Jews in the Second World War and of his background in the Hitler Youth, the Pope denounced anti-Semitism.

POPE IN ISRAEL: PONTIFF WILL LEAVE BEHIND MANY DISAPPOINTED SOULS.
Haaretz: By Lily Galili, Haaretz Correspondent May 15, 2009 - Reactions to Pope Benedict XVI's visit to Israel were surprisingly similar to reactions to the concert by the British pop band Depeche Mode earlier this week.
Both the pope and Depeche Mode aroused high expectations. And both left behind many disappointed spectators, along with at least as many satisfied ones. In both cases, the disappointment stemmed from misunderstanding the limits of what the guests could do. Benedict's visit was very political, both because he is a very political pope and because the visit occurred so soon after the war in Gaza. Against this backdrop, and with liturgy serving as mere filler between political statements, his speeches turned into a competition between Israelis and Palestinians over recognition of their misery and the justness of their causes.

POPE: WEST BANK FENCE IS A SYMBOL OF 'STALEMATE'
By News Agencies - Haaretz - May 15, 2009 - Pope Benedict XVI on Wednesday branded the West Bank separation fence as a symbol of "stalemate" between Israel and the Palestinians, urging both sides to break a "spiral of violence." "Towering over us, as we gather here this afternoon, is a stark reminder of the stalemate that relations between Israelis and Palestinians seem to have reached - the wall," he said, standing by the fence at a refugee camp in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus. The Pontiff later told Palestinians that he hoped the barrier would be taken down. "Although walls can be easily built, we all know that they do not last forever, they can be taken down," he said.

VATICAN QUESTIONS ISRAEL OVER POOR TURNOUT AT PAPAL MASS
By The Associated Press May 21, 2009 - Roman Catholic Church officials say they would like an explanation from Israel for the poor turnout at Pope Benedict XVI's open-air mass in Jerusalem last week. Monsignor Antonio Franco, the papal nuncio in the Holy Land, said Thursday that church officials are still trying to figure out what happened. He says he's received reports that worshippers with tickets were turned away at the entrance while others received their tickets too late. Franco says it's premature to blame Israel. Some 5,000 worshippers were expected at the May 12 mass next to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Christianity says Jesus prayed before he was arrested. But no more than 3,000 people arrived. Israeli police say the event went smoothly. http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1087157.html

ISRAEL – VATICAN
NETANYAHU, PEACE PROBLEMS AND THE POPE'S VISIT
Asia News - 3.31.2009 by Arieh Cohen - "Israel’s new government, which takes offices today, is raising fears and concerns among Christians over entry visas and among average Israelis over relations with Iran and the Palestinians. The “peace process” seems now dead in the water. In May Benedict XVI will visit a land that appears to be sliding ever more into desperation and war.".... "The feeling in Israel is that the season of actively seeking peace, the “peace process”, which was inaugurated by the 1993 “Oslo accords” is now definitively over. This is reinforced by the renewed prospects, on the Palestinian side, of “reconciliation” between President Abu Mazen’s Fatah movement and the Hamas organisation, which rejects the “Oslo agreements” and with them, the possibility or desirability of a definitive peace with Israel.
This is the context in which the Holy Land is awaiting the arrival, in May, of Pope Benedict XVI. In 2000 John Paul II came into a Land that was believed to be on the cusp of a definitive end to the bloody conflict between the two Nations that call it home. Then was a time of great hope and high expectations. Very little of that remains. Yet precisely in this present time of disillusionment and anxiety, the Pope’s witness to Him Who is our Peace is surely more urgently necessary than ever.

NETANYAHU URGES POPE: SOUND YOUR MORAL VOICE AGAINST IRAN
By Barak Ravid, Haaretz Correspondent - May 14, 2009 - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday asked Pope Benedict XVI to condemn the anti-Semitic declarations of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. "I asked him, as a moral figure, to make his voice heard loud and continuously against the declarations coming from Iran of their intention to destroy Israel," Netanyahu told reporters following the meeting between the two in the Israeli town of Nazareth. "I told him it cannot be that at the beginning of the 21st century there is a state which says it is going to destroy the Jewish state, there is no aggressive voice being heard condemning this," Netanyahu said.

VATICAN BURIES THE HATCHET WITH CHARLES DARWIN
The TimesFebruary 11, 2009 - Richard Owen in Rome - The Vatican has admitted that Charles Darwin was on the right track when he claimed that Man descended from apes. A leading official declared yesterday that Darwin’s theory of evolution was compatible with Christian faith, and could even be traced to St Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas. “In fact, what we mean by evolution is the world as created by God,” said Archbishop Gianfranco Ravasi, head of the Pontifical Council for Culture. The Vatican also dealt the final blow to speculation that Pope Benedict XVI might be prepared to endorse the theory of Intelligent Design, whose advocates credit a “higher power” for the complexities of life. Organisers of a papal-backed conference next month marking the 150th anniversary of Darwin’s On the Origin of Species said that at first it had even been proposed to ban Intelligent Design from the event, as “poor theology and poor science”. Intelligent Design would be discussed at the fringes of the conference at the Pontifical Gregorian University, but merely as a “cultural phenomenon”, rather than a scientific or theological issue, organisers said.

'MISSING LINK' FOUND?
47 MILLION -YEAR-OLD FOSSIL UNVEILED
By TOM LLAMAS - NBCNewYork.com
A 47 million-year-old fossil may bridge the gap between early primates and humans, and it's right here in New York City. Scientists believe the newly unveiled fossil links primate groups and provides evidence of human evolution. After all these years, Ida is finally getting some respect. "Ida is a lost arc of paleontology and the ramifications of this discovery may reverberate for years to come," History Channel spokeswoman Nancy Dubuc said. Norwegian paleontologist Jørn Hurum took it a step further. Continued: Dead Link http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30832633/
Scientists are claiming to have found the "missing link," a 47-million-year-old monkey fossil that they're calling Ida. In terms of figuring out human evolution, Ida's a pretty big deal — she's got features from the non-human evolutionary line (like lemurs) but is more related to the human evolutionary line (apes and the like). One of the paleontologists, Jørn Hurum of the University of Oslo Natural History Museum, sums it up: "This is the first link to all humans ... truly a fossil that links world heritage."
Well, that's certainly exciting. But it's not the only massive development today in the Story of Man! Like a protohuman discovering fire, scientists have discovered public relations and marketing. Thus Ida was unveiled today with a media event (complete with an interest-feigning Mayor Bloomberg), which is just the beginning:
But the event, which will coincide with the publishing of a peer-reviewed article about the find, is the first stop in a coordinated, branded media event, orchestrated by the scientists and the History Channel, including a film detailing the secretive two-year study of the fossil, a book release, an exclusive arrangement with ABC News and an elaborate Web site.

IT IS BELIEVED THAT OBAMA USES SUBLIMINAL TECHNIQUES ON HIS AUDIENCE
ArkHaven Ministries - Chris Bartimus - May 13, 2009 - "... The speaker was quite different in his delivery method. He seemed to talk about nothing but did a lot of hand gestures, pacing, a steady non-exciting dialogue as he explained the drawing he was making on the black board. It was of course the infamous triangle and he was explaining his doctrine of man on their journey to be at the top of the triangle, to a state of "pure consciousness". I also noticed the way he would say, "thought after thought, after thought, after thought," using this phrase six times in three separate stretches, hence the use of 666. I looked around and everyone's head was bobbing with "thought after thought". He was hypnotizing everyone and then programming them with his indoctrination. This was a room full of intelligent adults yet everyone except me was subdued by it. Then he brought everyone back up out of their almost sleep like stupor and asked if anyone had any questions.
No one responded. So, I asked a question. I asked him if this was the same as the fruit in the garden of Eden that if Adam and Eve ate it they would become like God knowing good and evil, hence the "pure consciousness". The whole room immediately awoke and began to stir when before not a sound could be heard. He could not answer the question and someone brashly stepped in to try to explain their way out of it. It was too late the damage was already done and they quickly ended the meeting. That brings me to some information I received from a friend about the use of hypnosis in Obama's campaign speeches. I noticed something fishy and familiar about them and commented that he has had speech training under these guru masters. He pulls some of the same patterns that I have seen in transcendental meditation and other New Age teachers. It is a powerful technique when used on weak individuals or pre-hypnotically introduced individuals. It has nothing to do with IQ or intellect but rather the will. Willing, eager and gullible people are perfect subjects and can be led down any path of thought or rather deception.
Mildly critical thinkers can also be worn down quite easily too as the analytical mindset becomes tired and gives up to let the mind go along for the ride. It is scary stuff because the Antichrist uses these techniques and it will be quite effective so as to deceive the whole world! The Antichrist has forerunners right now as substitute teachers speaking on his behalf or rather under possession as he keeps his appearances to only the inner circles. You can see these videos for yourself as these people come under possession and take on the "Christ consciousness". They change right before your eyes and if it was only an act these people are some of the greatest actors ever. They even have pictures where they claim that "Maitreya" can be seen in ghostly figure over the teacher when under this possession.
Most of the already programmed followers can be instantly taken into the hypnotic state by a few gestures, words or hand movements. They too are encouraged to receive spirit guides to bring greater revelation and servitude which is none other than demonic possession. You will find at the following link a 60 page document by an expert that knows the many different techniques used by psychologists and gives a breakdown of Obama's use of them.

THE NATION OF ISLAM AND THE FREEMASONS
By David Livingstone - 7-18-6 - I've been taking a closer look at the writings of Wesley Williams, and I am shocked. I had no idea the Nation of Islam was so enmeshed with Freemasonry. Enmeshed is an understatement, the two are basically one and the same. Looking at his "The Book of God", he basically sets the history of the occult in reverse, where it is the "true Islam". Everything is there. The "Sons of God" or Nephilim, also the Fallen Angels, are God, a man, and his council. They have been guiding the select of humanity ever since. He even places them in "Shamballah" in the Gobi desert, being the same as the "Great White Brotherhood", or the "Hidden Chiefs" of "Hidden Masters" of the occult. The entire history of the occult is co-opted to his version of Islam, including Gnosticism, the Templars and Cathars, and the Holy Grail. He invokes Masonic historian Manly P. Hall as a source, and also Blavatsky, an avowed Satanist. He even has a chapter about the "Masonic secret", which he correctly explains is that "Man is God". That explains why the creed he expounds is that of anthropomorphism, because it is a hidden method of preparing the unsuspecting masses for the acceptance of the god-man Messiah of the Kabbalah.
So evidently, at the higher levels of the Nation of Islam, like all other occult fronts, Lucifer is recognized as "true God". I wouldn't be surprised if this were the belief of Mr. Williams, or that he would deny it. Continued:

NOTRE DAME OBAMA ABORTION PROTESTS:
No Bail For Alan Keyes
1 Comment » May 16, 2009
Posted by: Erin Former Republican presidential hopeful Alan Keyes and 17 others have been arrested after marching to the University of Notre Dame to protest Barack Obama’s commencement speech Sunday. It’s the second arrest for Keyes in a week. Randall Terry says, “The authorities have suddenly - without legal right - decided to not set bail for Dr. Keyes, and anyone else who was arrested last Friday. Terry has just defied a court order at Notre Dame, and his own arrest is imminent.
Notre Dame plans to give an honorary degree to Barry, and Barry says he’s going to address the whole “abortion controversy” that has masses of Catholics and other Christians so upset. What in the hell is he going to say? Seriously. Because he either supports or doesn’t support the practice, period.
There is no grey about the procedure, or where he stands. His huge support of Planned Parenthood, (founded by Margaret Singer…who wanted to “get rid of the weeds”), is the tip of his abortion-agenda iceberg. Margaret’s Planned Parenthood featured a notorious eugenic “Negro Project” (not that Barry would qualify.)
It’s a shame that Notre Dame would place their graduating class, students, alumni and supporters in this position. It did, however, by disregarding key tenets held by it’s governing authorities. Now, the convictions of many, including students, won’t let them be silent. Gallup released a poll yesterday showing that for the first time since it began asking the question (1995), a majority of Americans identified themselves as “Pro-life” versus “Pro-choice.” It’s not just the sensibilities of those connected to Notre Dame who are outraged about Obama’s big day. The bright side? This honorary degree is the first scholastic record of Barry’s we’re going to be allowed to see, as the rest of them have not been released. He deserves a Doctorate of Teleprompter: Pages keep changing : http://rightsoup.com/page/3/.

PALESTINIAN OFFICIAL SAYS CHRISTIANS UNDER SURVEILLANCE TO PREVENT EVANGELISM, CONVERSION OF MUSLIMS
WORLDNETDAILY.COM - Christians in the Palestinian territories are being "watched," a spokesman for the Palestinian Authority admitted to WND. "We have been watching this Christian organization and for the moment there is nothing special in their activity," said Adnan Dmeire, spokesman for the PA's security organizations in West Bank. Dmeire was referring to the Association of the Holy Book, one of the main groups that attends to the needs of Christians in the Palestinian territories. The group has been accused by both the PA and Hamas of carrying out missionary activities. A Bible store the association sponsored in the Gaza Strip – the only Christian bookstore in the territory – was attacked by Islamists several times. The store's owner, Rami Ayyad, was found shot to death in 2007, his body riddled with bullets. Dmeire was responding to a WND inquiry regarding a Hamas accusation earlier this week that the PA was allowing the Christian association to carry out missionary activity in the West Bank.

HOME: NO PLACE FOR BIBLE STUDY?
County demands pastor spend thousands on 'Major Use' permit to host friends - May 22, 2009 - By Drew Zahn - WorldNetDaily - A San Diego pastor and his wife claim they were interrogated by a county official and warned they will face escalating fines if they continue to hold Bible studies in their home. The couple, whose names are being withheld until a demand letter can be filed on their behalf, told their attorney a county government employee knocked on their door on Good Friday, asking a litany of questions about their Tuesday night Bible studies, which are attended by approximately 15 people. "Do you have a regular weekly meeting in your home? Do you sing? Do you say 'amen'?" the official reportedly asked. "Do you say, 'Praise the Lord'?" The pastor's wife answered yes. She says she was then told, however, that she must stop holding "religious assemblies" until she and her husband obtain a Major Use Permit from the county, a permit that often involves traffic and environmental studies, compliance with parking and sidewalk regulations and costs that top tens of thousands of dollars. And if they fail to pay for the MUP, the county official reportedly warned, the couple will be charged escalating fines beginning at $100, then $200, $500, $1000, "and then it will get ugly." Continued: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=98895
Dean Broyles of the Western Center for Law & Policy, which has been retained to represent the couple, told WND the county's action not only violates religious land-use laws but also assaults both the First Amendment's freedom of assembly and freedom of religion.
"The First Amendment, in part, reads, 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,'" Broyles said. "And that's the key part: 'prohibiting the free exercise.' We believe this is a substantial government burden on the free exercise of religion." He continued, "If one's home is one's castle, certainly you would the think the free exercise of religion, of all places, could occur in the home." Broyles confirmed the county official followed through on his threat. The pastor and his wife received a written warning ordering the couple to "cease/stop religious assembly on parcel or obtain a major use permit." "The Western Center for Law and Policy is troubled by this draconian move to suppress home Bible studies," said the law center in a statement. "If the current trends in our nation continue, churches may be forced underground. If that happens, believers will once again be forced to meet in homes. If homes are already closed by the government to assembly and worship, where then will Christians meet?" On a personal note, Broyles added, "I've been leading Bible studies in my home for 13 years in San Diego County, and I personally believe that home fellowship Bible studies are the past and future of the church. ? If you look at China, the church grew from home Bible studies. I'm deeply concerned that if in the U.S. we are not able to meet in our homes and freely practice our religion, then we may be worse off than China."
Broyles also explained to WND that oppressive governments, such as communist China or Nazi Germany, worked to repress home fellowships, labeling them the "underground church" or "subversive groups," legally compelling Christians to meet only in sanctioned, government-controlled "official" churches. "Therein lies my concern," Broyles said. "If people can't practice their religious beliefs in the privacy of their own homes with a few of their friends, that's an egregious First Amendment violation." WND contacted a spokeswoman for San Diego County, who acknowledged the description of the incident seemed "bizarre," but who was unable to locate the details of the account. She simply could not provide comment yet, she said, until she could become familiar with the case. Broyles said the WCLP is nearly ready to file a demand letter with the county to release the pastor and his wife from the requirement to obtain the expensive permit. If the county refuses, Broyles said, the WCLP will consider a lawsuit in federal court. Broyles also told WND the pastor and his wife are continuing to hold the Bible study in their home.

CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY ON TRIAL IN FRANCE
by Dorothee Moisan Dorothee Moisan – May 25, 2009 - PARIS (AFP) – The Church of Scientology and six of its French leaders went on trial on Monday on charges of organised fraud that could lead to an outright ban on the organisation in France. Known for its Hollywood celebrity followers Tom Cruise and John Travolta, the group is in the dock in Paris for the second time in six years, although French courts have prosecuted several individual Scientologists since 1978. The court is hearing a complaint from two women, one of whom alleges she was manipulated into handing over 20,000 euros (28,000 dollars) for costly Scientology products, such as an "electrometer" to measure mental energy. She says she was approached in a Paris street by a Scientologist in late 1998 who offered a free personality test, at a time when she was feeling psychologically fragile. After being told that her test results were poor, the woman was sold a series of life-improvement courses, vitamins and other products that she could ill afford, landing her in debt.

Hundreds of Catholic priests are expected to be implicated in alleged child abuse in Ireland in a major report this week. By Sarah Knapton - 17 May 2009 - The Commission to Inquire into Child Abuse has spent nine years looking into allegations from thousands of former pupils of state schools and orphanages, some which date back more than 60 years. It is due to report on Wednesday while a second report looking into how sex abuse complaints were handled by the Catholic Church will be published by the commission in the summer. £200,000 for man abused by priestIt is thought some 500 priests have been implicated in the abuse allegations. Many thousands of children suffered at the hands of religious orders such as the Christian Brothers and Sisters of Mercy at industrial schools and orphanages. Most of the children were born outside wedlock or came from large impoverished families that could not afford to feed them. The commission was founded in 2000 following a documentary for Irish television which claimed there was widespread sexual, physical and emotional abuse within Catholic institutions. Mary Raffety, who produced the programme said the abuse suffered was 'way off the scale' and 'designed to break children.'
At Easter, the Archbishop of Dublin, Diarmuid Martin, said the report would "shock us all". Continued:

THE COMING PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS IN THE COMING ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT
By Paul McGuire - MAY 1ST, 2009 - My spiritual mentor, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, who has been called the greatest Evangelical theologian of the last 100 years, warned that as the anarchy increased in our world due to moral relativism, that totalitarianism would rise to control the chaos. Schaeffer issued that warning over 30 years ago and said we had a brief window in which to preserve our religious freedoms. Dr. Schaeffer believed that the greatest contributing factor to the rise of totalitarianism was the fact that the Evangelical Church was accommodating to a growing humanist culture and not standing for Biblical truth. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the “Emergent Church Movement” and in the “Seeker-Friendly Movement,” but it is epidemic in the Evangelical culture as a whole. Tragically, what Schaeffer predicted would happen in the church and the culture is now happening before our eyes. Schaeffer stated that it did not matter whether or not the totalitarianism came from the left or the right because the results would be the same. With tears in my eyes, the words of Dr. Schaeffer reverberate in my mind, as I watch the rise of a global totalitarian state and the great apostasy that the Apostle warned about in II Thessalonians. For the most part the Evangelical Church in America and Europe is the Laodecian Church that Christ warned of in the Book of Revelation. It is this the same Laodecian Church that existed in Nazi Germany before the Third Reich took control. The result of the Laodecian Church is the explosive growth of a humanist and world socialist government. This “Fourth Beast” which Daniel warned about will persecute true Bible believing Christians in America, Great Britain and around the world before the Tribulation begins. The Church is raptured before a literal Seven year Tribulation Period, but prior to that time there will be worldwide persecution in a manner that I do not believe most Evangelical Churches and their leaders are prepared for.

THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH IN CAIRO: A NEW BEGINNING
[Ednote: please watch that video.It is extremely revealing of Obama. He is a product of the Nation of Islam and claims to be a Christian?? He is Farakhan personified in a different body. He also represents the Pope's agenda of ecumenism.]
June 4, 2009 - by Jesse Lee - Watch or read the President’s speech in Cairo on America’s relationship with Muslim communities around the world. http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/NewBeginning/
Also, in case you missed it, watch a short video posted yesterday with a few stories of Muslim Americans who are proudly serving their nation in the federal government. The White House Photo Office sends along another perspective: As a Senior Advisor to the President, I'm here in Cairo, Egypt where I watched President Obama deliver an unprecedented speech calling for a new beginning for the United States and Muslim communities around the world. We all know that there has been tension between the United States and some Muslim communities. But, as the President said this morning, if all sides face the sources of tension squarely and focus on mutual interests, we can find a new way forward. The President outlined some big goals for this new beginning in his speech -- including disrupting, dismantling, and defeating violent extremism. It was a historic speech, and since many Americans were asleep at the time it was given we wanted to make sure you had a chance to see it: Majority-Muslim countries around the world are filled with extraordinary people who simply want to live their lives and see their children live better lives, just as in America. Indeed, part of what makes America great is having nearly seven million Muslim Americans living here today and enriching our culture and communities. We can extend that kind of relationship abroad. It won't always be easy, but if we make an effort to bridge our differences rather than resigning ourselves to animosity, we can move toward a more peaceful world over time.

POLYGAMOUS FUNDAMENTILSTS BAPTIZED BY PROXY INTO LDS CJURCH RESEARCHER SAYS
June 4, 2009 “The LDS Church appears to be reinventing its polygamous history” Prominent fundamentalist Mormons, most of whom were excommunicated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for practicing polygamy while they were alive, have been posthumously re-baptized in LDS temples, a Salt Lake City researcher says. Helen Radkey said in a new report that she obtained church records on 20 fundamentalists — from murderer Ervil LeBaron to Joseph Musser to Rulon Jeffs — showing that they’ve been baptized and have had their plural marriages “sealed” for time and eternity by proxy LDS members, one as recently as this year. Radkey, who was briefly a member of the church years ago, has previously delved into LDS proxy baptisms of a range of prominent people, from Adolph Hitler to Ted Bundy to President Obama’s mother, as well as Jews who died in the Holocaust. The later ordinances angered Jewish leaders, who first protested 14 years ago.

RICK JOYNER AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER
by Joseph Chambers - Also see: Knights of Malta & Rick Joyner
The name of Rick Joyner is a rage in the New Wave movement. His writings take on a prophetic style and must be considered in this book on religious megatrends. His ideas are certainly extremely influential, but are they Biblical? The doctrines of Biblical truth have always been the love and joy of godly men and women. When the soul of man is regenerated by the Holy Spirit, it is regeneration unto righteousness or rightness to God and His will. The joy of such individuals is to discover truth and with great delight live that truth. The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit by which the believer is pruned and prepared unto righteousness. Righteousness is our willing surrender to right conduct according to the Word and will of God. Holiness is His work of imputation and impartation. We act in obedience toward righteousness, but He makes us holy by the divine work of redemption. Biblical truth and doctrine are absolutely imperative for true righteousness and holiness. It is impossible to bring a clean thing out of an unclean thing. The root and foundation must first be purified and established. If the doctrines are not pure, then the fruit cannot be pure. "For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches." (Romans 11:16). The Holy Spirit in Proverbs said, "The wicked desireth the net of evil men: but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit." (Proverbs 12:12). Again, He said, "A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved." (Proverbs 12:3). The Book of Job gives an eternal principle. "Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one." (Job 14:4). Continued: http://www.cephas-library.com/pentecostals_rick_joyner_and_the_new_world_order.html

JUNE 4, 2009 THE SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE BEGINS FORMAL CONSIDERATION OF
DAVID HAMILTON - NOTORIOUS "NO TO JESUS, YES TO ALLAH" JUDGE NOMINATED BY BARACK OBAMA FOR THE 7TH CIRCUIT COURT http://www.libertyaction.org/
PLEASE HELP STOP HAMILTON CONFIRMATION
Posted by Maureen Gerrish on June 8, 2009 "While most of the country paid attention to the Sotomoyor nomination, a stealth and surprise vote by the Senate Judiciary Committee went largely unreported, while our citizen voices were heard by 7 Republican Senators, and ignored by 12 Democrats. But our fight for religious liberty and the right to pray publicly "in Jesus name" is not over.
On 4 June 09, the committee voted 12-7 along strict party lines, to forward the nomination of Judge David Hamilton, the anti-Jesus Judge, the same judge who issued controversial rulings banning public prayers offered "in Jesus name," (but allowing prayers to Allah), and hastening the abortion of unborn children. This vote came after we'd already sent nearly 600,000 faxes to the entire Senate opposing Hamilton, proving some Republicans are listening to the voice of the people, and some Democrats remain deaf to our petitions. Now this anti-Jesus Judge Hamilton will face the full Senate, and the threat of filibuster by the pro-faith, pro-family Senator James Inhofe (R-OK). .." Continued:

FOCUS ON ORISSA, INDIA.
"Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute." (Proverbs 31:8).
@.01.THE VIOLENCE HAS SPREAD TO AT LEAST 14 DISTRICTS OF ORISSA
@.02.300 VILLAGED DESTROYED AND LEAVING MORE THAN 5000 PEOPLE HOMELESS.
@.03,.AT LEAST 60 CHRISTIANS KILLED AND MORE THAN 18,000 INJURED
@ 04.15,000 CHRISTAIN REMAIN IN REFUGEE CAMP.
@.05.AROUND 4500 HOUSES AND CHURCHES HAS BEEN DESTROYED.
India is the largest democracy in the world and has the second largest population. Tensions between Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims and Christians remain high. There are many reports of attacks on churches, kidnappings, arrests and intimidation. In Orissa state, violence against Christians incited by “Vishwa Hindu Parishad” (VHP) leader Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati erupted during Christmas 2007. Further violence erupted following the swami's death at the hands of a Maoist group on 23 August 2008, in which at least 60 Christians were killed and 300 villages and 151 churches destroyed.
Historical and religious context with a population of 1.1 billion people, India is the largest democracy in the world. The history of Christianity in India stretches back almost 2,000 years and today it sends out more cross-cultural missionaries than any other nation in the world, yet only 2.3% of its population (approximately 25.3 million people) is Christian. India's population is primarily Hindu (80.5%), but its 13.4% Muslim population is still the second largest on earth. Tensions between Hindus and Muslims have remained high since the partition, but Christians and other religious minorities are also facing mounting pressure as a result of the Hindu tva ideology pursued by the right wing Hindu nationalist groups. Although the Constitution of India guarantees freedom of religion, eight states have tried to enact and legislate anti-conversion laws preventing primarily Dalits and tribals from becoming Christians, which radicals have used as their justification for violence. At present five states have implemented the so-called "Freedom of Religion Acts", namely Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh and Orissa. Orissa was the first state following independence to enact an anti-conversion law in 1967.
Orissa in particular has long had a history of violence against Christians, and the now deceased Laxmanananda Saraswati started a Hindu religious centre in Orissa in 1969 dedicated to countering the work of Christian missionaries and converting animist tribals to Hinduism. On 23 August 2008 Saraswati was shot dead by Maoists, according to Maoist leader Sabyasachi Panda and also Orissa state police. Nevertheless, Hindu extremists used the incident to unleash an unprecedented wave of attacks against Christians which left an estimated 60 people dead, 18,000 injured, more than 50,000 people displaced, and 4,500 houses, 300 villages and 151 churches destroyed. Although this latest wave of anti-Christian attacks started in Orissa, it quickly spread to at least seven other states. The EU has described it as a 'massacre' of Christians. The Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh, called it a 'National Shame'.
According to Compass Direct News, a Communist Party fact-finding report suggests the figures could be much higher, as the state government downplayed and covered up evidence of unreported deaths. They also claim that numerous attacks, acts of vandalism and killings took place "in full view of police who remained mute spectators". Victims in numerous relief camps told the fact-finding team that the VHP and its youth wing, Bajrang Dal, were responsible for the tensions and violence. An estimated 15,000 people still remain in refugee camps, in addition to those who have fled elsewhere. Dr. John Dayal, member of the National Integration Council, said he was distressed that , for the vast majority of the refugees who are from the Kandhamal district, "there was no assurance forthcoming as to when these internally displaced persons, refugees in their homeland, can return home without being forced at gunpoint by the Bajrang Dal to become Hindus." *
Dr Sajan K. George, president of the Global Council of Indian Christians, says that Hindu extremist groups have been 'reconverting' Christians by force. "We have collected evidence and given it to authorities," he says. "However, the police and other state government authorities are not doing anything."
Testimonies from victims of the recent violence
Nika Pradano, a victim of one of these attacks, explains his determination not to forsake his faith.
"I am Nika Pradano from Baliguda Mandal, Kandhamal district, Orissa. The death of Swami Laxmanananda in August 2008 was used by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and other fundamentalist Hindu organisations to attack Christians. "One day at around 7 pm, some of these fundamentalists came to our house. They started destroying everything they saw in the house and brutally beat us. At about 8:30 pm, some of the young people from our village came to my aid and took me to the hospital. "The next morning, the fundamentalists attacked the youths who had helped me and forced them to bow down and worship their gods and goddesses and eat the food offered to their gods. They also shaved their heads and put a mark on their foreheads as a sign that they had become Hindus.
"Around 23 people then came to my house with sticks and rods in their hands and threatened to forcibly convert me to Hinduism, and they shaved my head. I told them, "I know my Lord, he has saved me and I will not change my faith." When they asked me to drink the urine of a cow and eat its dung everyone ran away - nobody stayed to help. The fundamentalists then started beating me brutally and told me to leave the village. "They took all that we had, even our animals. We are helpless and unable to receive any help from anywhere. We even lack basic necessities like food to eat, clothes to wear and shelter. We live in constant fear, but with a strong determination not to leave our faith." (Email from India)

MICHAEL JACKSON 'CONVERTS TO ISLAM AND CHANGES NAME TO MIKAEEL'
Michael Jackson has reportedly become a Muslim and changed his name to Mikaeel. by Graham Tibbetts - November 21,2008- The singer, who was raised as a Jehovah's Witness, converted to Islam in a ceremony at a friend's house in Los Angeles. He is said to have sat on the floor and worn a small hat while an imam officiated.

According to The Sun, the ceremony took place while Jackson, 50, was recording an album at the home of Steve Porcaro, a keyboard player who composed music on his Thriller album. The former Jackson 5 star was counselled by David Wharnsby, a Canadian songwriter, and Phillip Bubal, a producer, who have both converted. A source said Jackson had appeared a "bit down" and added: "They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea. "An imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief." Last year his brother, Jermaine Friday, suggested Jackson would convert having taken an interest in Islam since Friday's conversion in 1989. "When I came back from Mecca I got him a lot of books and he asked me lots of things about my religion and I told him that it's peaceful and beautiful," said Friday. "He read everything and he was proud of me that I found something that would give me inner strength and peace. "I think it is most probable that Michael will convert to Islam. "He could do so much, just like I am trying to do. Michael and I and the word of God, we could do so much." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/celebritynews/3494296/Michael-Jackson-

CHICAGO SCHOOL TO MARCH IN GAY PRIDE DAY
Rex W. Huppke - Tribune reporter - Chicago-Sun Tribune - The black metal fence in front of Nettelhorst Elementary School is obscured by thousands of strips of dyed fabric -- yellows giving way to greens, then blues, purples and reds -- each one tied on by the small hands of a student. The ruffled, waist-high rainbow is a symbol of the school's solidarity with its east Lakeview community, and a sign hanging by the gate trumpets that Nettelhorst this year "will be the first Chicago public school to march in the city's gay pride parade." "We believe family means everybody," the sign reads. Amy Goodman agrees with that. She'll be in the parade at noon Sunday with her husband, towing their 6-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter in a wagon bedecked in rainbows.

545 PEOPLE
By Charlie Reese (journalists for 49 years) May 30, 2009 - Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits? Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes? You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does.You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does. You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.
You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does. One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president, and nine Supreme Court justices 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country. I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank. I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. Continued:

COURT DOCUMENTS REVEAL ACORNS TROUBLED HISTORY
October 14, 2008 - By Jim Popkin, NBC News Senior Investigative Producer. Move over, Bill Ayers. This week, Republican activists have a new Public Enemy #1. It’s ACORN, the once-obscure community-organizing group that boasts of having registered 1.3 million new voters. Republican officials and advisers to Sen. John McCain have accused ACORN (the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) of rampant voter-registration fraud. Indeed, officials in states including Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina, Indiana and Connecticut now are looking into accusations that ACORN workers turned in thousands of fraudulent or duplicate voter-registration applications. (The Dallas Cowboys magically filled out voter registration forms in Nevada, for example.) So what exactly is ACORN’s track record in registering new voters? It hasn’t always been pretty. Here are some highlights (lowlights?) from recent court documents and public testimony in three states that have examined ACORN’s hiring practices over the past two years. Continued:

SOMETHING OF HISTORIC PROPORTIONS IS HAPPENING
by Tim Wood - December 1, 2008 - I am a student of history. Professionally. I have written 15 books in six languages, and have studied history all my life. I think there is something monumentally large afoot, and I do not believe it is just a banking crisis, or a mortgage crisis, or a credit crisis. Yes these exist, but they are merely single facets on a very large gemstone that is only now coming into a sharper focus. Something of historic proportions is happening. I can sense it because I know how it feels, smells, what it looks like, and how people react to it. Yes, a perfect storm may be brewing, but there is something happening within our country that has been evolving for about ten - fifteen years. The pace has dramatically quickened in the past two years. We demand and then codify into law the requirement that our banks make massive loans to people we know they can never pay back? Why?

What is at stake is the fraudulent confiscation of lifelong savings and pension funds, the appropriation of tax revenues to finance the trillion dollar "bank bailouts", which ultimately serve to line the pockets of the richest people in America.

30 ARRESTED IN CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE AT I.C.E. HEADQUARTERS
By staff - May, 2009 - Bloomington, MN - Thirty community members were arrested here, May 6, while committing non-violent civil disobedience to shut down the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) headquarters and stop deportations for the day. The action was initiated by the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action coalition (MIRAc). This action was an escalation in response to the silence of the administration demonstrated by the continuation of raids and deportations which have torn families and communities apart, resulting in numerous human rights abuses and over 90 deaths in ICE detention centers since 2003. Over the past several years, the immigrant rights movement has organized marches, hunger strikes, petitions and lobbied for change, all with the goal of ending these human rights abuses - yet the raids and deportations have continued.
President Obama has said, "Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." Community members have decided to take matters into their own hands to realize this message. Phillip Lickteig, one of the dozens of community members who participated in the action, states, "President Obama, we take you at your word. We are non-violent because we wish, through contrast, to expose the system of violence and fear that pervades the communities, workplaces, schools and homes of the undocumented and their children. We are disobedient because the law is unjust."

CHEMTRAILS FINALLY OUT INTO THE OPEN
April 24, 2009 ? It has been documented that the military has been experimenting and perfecting weather modification for decades,and Chemtrails have been and are very much a part of those experiments, as is the HAARP technology. Chemtrails have been visibly obvious to anyone with eyes to see and a brain to discern normal from abnormal (and yet most people just wouldn't see, and remained in denial, despite the overwhelming evidence).
It has also been documented that the military has conducted numerous bio-warfare-toxic-chemical experiments on unwitting and unsuspecting populations in the USA,and probably also elsewhere.
Chemtrail researchers have been able to substantiate that, among many other toxic and pathological substances, they contain dangerously high quantities of aluminum and barium. Both of them are known to lower the immune system . .. The pictures in these you-tube videos are so compelling?and remove forever the controversy as to "whether or not they exist".
It's Being Done TO US - and they know it! - Finally, finally, alas finally, after over ten years of denial, chemtrails are hitting fan and getting some media exposure. While the public, accused of causing global warming and chaotic weather - is being saddled with all kinds of regulations and taxes (like the carbon tax, and Cap-and-trade quotas for polluting) the real reason for climate chaos and irrational weather systems has very clearly been kept under secret raps. Yes, it has been documented that the military has been experimenting and perfecting weather modification for decades - and Chemtrails have been and are very much a part of those experiments, as is the HARARP technology. Chemtrials have been visibly obvious to anyone with eyes to see and a brain to discern normal from abnormal (and yet most people just wouldn't see - and remained in denial, despite the overwhelming evidence). It has also been documented that the military has conducted numerous bio-warfare-toxic-chemical experiments on unwitting and unsuspecting populations in the USA - and probably also elsewhere.
Chemtrail researchers have been able to substantiate that, among many other toxic and pathological substances, they contain dangerously high quantities of aluminum and barium. Both of them are known to lower the immune system
In the last few weeks the chemtrail activity seems to have intensified exponentially. Why now? Could it be that before the long-predicted pandemic of Bird Flu is unleashed, the immune systems of the population are being weakened to make sure that the "planned reduction in population" actually materializes. The pictures in these you-tube videos are so compelling - and remove forever the controversy as to "whether or not they exist".
My question, naturally is, "Where has the media been in these past 10+ years. Not a whimper or a peep!
Please share this widely with all your contacts, especially those still in chemtrail denial.

CHRYSLER TARGETS 800 DEALERS IN REORGANIZATION
Cars pass Westminster Dodge in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood, Thursday, May 14, 2009, which is one of 12 dealerships in Massachusetts targeted for closure by Chrysler. Stephan SavoiaBy TOM KRISHER and KIMBERLY S. JOHNSON (AP) Associated Press - May 14, 2009 - DETROIT - In tiny Millerstown, Pa., the owner of the only car dealership in town found out Thursday he was on Chrysler's hit list - one of 789 across the nation that the troubled automaker wants to eliminate. "It's really, really a blow," Jeff Potter, whose family owns the dealership, said after hearing the news from a customer who spotted the closing list on the Internet. "When you talk about being here 34 years, it's my life." Chrysler disclosed in a bankruptcy filing Thursday that it wants to close a quarter of its dealers in a matter of weeks, a strategy that might help save the company but would wipe out thousands of jobs. With General Motors Corp. expected to announce it will close about 1,100 dealerships, the crisis in the auto industry is reaching the front doors of Americans who live far from Detroit. Millerstown Chrysler will try to survive by selling used cars. Otherwise, the town of 700 will lose one of its largest employers and a major source of tax revenue. And in other communities that depend on dealers for everything from newspaper advertising to Little League sponsorships, the ripple effect could be devastating. Dealerships on the closing list are in every state but Alaska. Continued: http://www.wtol.com/Global/story.asp?S=10365389

THE GREAT ETHANOL SCAM
May 14, 2009 - Not only is ethanol proving to be a dud as a fuel substitute but there is increasing evidence that it is destroying engines in large numbers - By Ed Wallace - "Does the average citizen understand what this means? In from 10 to 20 years this country will be dependent entirely upon outside sources for a supply of liquid fuels … paying out vast sums yearly in order to obtain supplies of crude oil from Mexico, Russia, and Persia."—Yale Professor Harold Hibbert, ethanol promoter, 1925 - More than one major transportation-based industry in America besides Detroit is on the ropes. For the fourth time in our history the ethanol industry has come undone and is quickly failing nationally. Of course it's one thing when Detroit collapsed with the economy; after all, that is a truly free-market enterprise and the economy hasn't been good. But the fact that the ethanol industry is going bankrupt, when the only reason we use this additive is a massive government mandate, is outrageous at best. Continued:

HOMELAND SECURITY'S ASSESSMENT ABOUT RIGHTWING EXTREMISM
"...What is frightening many conservative observers is the new targeting of some American citizens and less emphasis on illegal aliens and terrorists.

MEDICAL CARE FOR DISABLED VETERANS: OBAMA'S PLAN
I thought I was unshockable, writes Tom McKenney (4/5/6 2009 Newsletter) but in late March Obama shocked even me. In his budget for the coming fiscal year he de-funded medical care for disabled veterans! Competely? It has become apparent that he is an anti-military elitist, but I could never have believed that he would do such a morally, and politically, unthinkable thing! These are our wounded warriors who have left their blood and body parts on foreign battlefields, and he is their commander in chief! So how, according to him, should their medical care and rehabilitation be funded? By the veterans' own medical insurance, paid for by themselves! Leaders of the American Legion and other veteran advocacy groups met with him in the White House and pleaded with him to reverse the policy. He admittedly refused, and they left, wondering if this could actually be real. Word got out, there was very negative public reaction. The next day, when these same leaders returned to plead with him again, he relented. And so, the disabled warriors will continue to receive care at government expense, but it is only against Obama's wishes, and he is exposed forever for his unthinkable values. (Fox News / CNN / WND)

EXPERTS EXPLAIN WHAT MAKES BARACK OBAMA TICK
May 06, 2009 - WorldNetDaily - He may be the most mysterious and secretive president in American history.
Though inexperienced and arguably unqualified for the presidency, he mesmerized the entire establishment press and more than half of voters, many regarding him nothing short of a political messiah. Though he can barely speak publicly without a teleprompter, he's praised as a transcendent communicator. Though his voting record is extreme left, he portrays himself as a pragmatic centrist. But beyond Obama's political ideology, many Americans are troubled also by his strange personality attributes: He greatly exaggerates his achievements, expects constant praise and admiration, believes he's special, doesn't appear to concern himself with other people's feelings, expresses disdain for those he feels are inferior, sets unrealistic goals, appears as tough-minded and unemotional, and other qualities – all of which are textbook symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

HOUSE ADOPTS PLAN FOR 'VOLUNTEER' CORPS'
Also requires new evaluation of 'mandatory' service for all - March 19, 2009 - By Bob Unruh - WorldNetDaily
The U.S. House of Representatives has approved a plan to set up a new "volunteer corps" and consider whether "a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people" should be developed.
The legislation also refers to "uniforms" that would be worn by the "volunteers" and the "need" for a "public service academy, a 4-year institution" to "focus on training" future "public sector leaders." The training, apparently, would occur at "campuses." The vote yesterday came on H.R. 1388, which reauthorizes through 2014 the National and Community Service Act of 1990 and the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973, acts that originally, among other programs, funded the AmeriCorps and the National Senior Service Corps.

WILL DESIGNER BRAINS DIVIDE HUMANITY?
13 May 2009 by Andy Coghlan - Magazine issue 2708. - Would tweaking human brains widen the gulf between the world's haves and have-nots? - WE ARE on the brink of technological breakthroughs that could augment our mental powers beyond recognition. It will soon be possible to boost human brainpower with electronic "plug-ins" or even by genetic enhancement. What will this mean for the future of humanity? This was the theme of a recent Neuroscience in Context meeting in Berlin, Germany, where anthropologists, technologists, neurologists, archaeologists and philosophers met to consider the implications of this next stage of human brain development. Would it widen the gulf between the world's haves and have-nots - and perhaps even lead to a distinct and dominant species with unmatchable powers of intellect?
One view is that this is merely the next phase in a process that has been taking place throughout human history. Humans have always played an active role in improving their own brainpower, says Lambros Malafouris of the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research in Cambridge, UK, who was one of the organisers of the Berlin meeting. It began with inherited gene mutations that gave us uniquely "plastic" brains, capable of changing physically to meet hitherto unassailable intellectual and practical challenges.Continued:

PENTAGON PREPS SOLDIER TELEPATHY PUSH
By Katie Drummond - May 14, 2009 - Forget the battlefield radios, the combat PDAs or even infantry hand signals. When the soldiers of the future want to communicate, they’ll read each other’s minds. At least, that’s the hope of researchers at the Pentagon’s mad-science division Darpa. The agency’s budget for the next fiscal year includes $4 million to start up a program called Silent Talk. The goal is to “allow user-to-user communication on the battlefield without the use of vocalized speech through analysis of neural signals.” That’s on top of the $4 million the Army handed out last year to the University of California to investigate the potential for computer-mediated telepathy. Before being vocalized, speech exists as word-specific neural signals in the mind. Darpa wants to develop technology that would detect these signals of “pre-speech,” analyze them, and then transmit the statement to an intended interlocutor. Darpa plans to use EEG to read the brain waves. It’s a technique they’re also testing in a project to devise mind-reading binoculars that alert soldiers to threats faster the conscious mind can process them.
The project has three major goals, according to Darpa. First, try to map a person’s EEG patterns to his or her individual words. Then, see if those patterns are generalizable — if everyone has similar patterns. Last, “construct a fieldable pre-prototype that would decode the signal and transmit over a limited range.”
The military has been funding a handful of mind-tapping technology recently, and already have monkeys capable of telepathic limb control. Telepathy may also have advantages beyond covert battlefield chatter. Last year, the National Research Council and the Defense Intelligence Agency released a report suggesting that neuroscience might also be useful to “make the enemy obey our commands.” The first step, though, may be getting a grunt to obey his officer’s remotely-transmitted thoughts.

JUST LIKE NAZI GERMANY?
[Not the case. Hitler Youth did not bear weapons. It looks more like Israel, where school children wear weapons to protect themselves from the enemy. (eyewitness) ]
Look out. The paramilitary organizations, Xe/Blackwater, Infragard, Evergreen, just added the Boy Scouts - and there are girls in the Exporers too.
SCOUTS TRAIN TO FIGHT TERRORISTS, AND MORE. Todd Krainin for The New York Times - Explorers ready to enter a building taken by terrorists, in an exercise. Photo Published: May 13, 2009 - IMPERIAL, Calif. — Ten minutes into arrant mayhem in this town near the Mexican border, and the gunman, a disgruntled Iraq war veteran, has already taken out two people, one slumped in his desk, the other covered in blood on the floor. The responding officers — eight teenage boys and girls, the youngest 14 — face tripwire, a thin cloud of poisonous gas and loud shots — BAM! BAM! — fired from behind a flimsy wall. They move quickly, pellet guns drawn and masks affixed. “United States Border Patrol! Put your hands up!” screams one in a voice cracking with adolescent determination as the suspect is subdued. It is all quite a step up from the square knot. The Explorers program, a coeducational affiliate of the Boy Scouts of America that began 60 years ago, is training thousands of young people in skills used to confront terrorism, illegal immigration and escalating border violence — an intense ratcheting up of one of the group’s longtime missions to prepare youths for more traditional jobs as police officers and firefighters.

ACORN TO COUNT HEADS FOR CENSUS
March 20, 2009 First it was President Obama trying to break all precedent and run the 2010 census from within the White House. While the administration finally backed down from that politicization of the census, it clearly hasn't learned its lesson. Now it is having ACORN officially "partner" with the Census to help count the number of Americans in the country. It's like Santa trusting a child to tell him how many times he or she has been good in the past year.
We could write a book on the false voter registrations submitted by ACORN. There are bizarre stories, such as one from Cleveland, where ACORN employees reregistered the same individual 77 times, even though the individual kept on telling the ACORN workers that he was already registered. But ACORN's people kept offering to bribe him with cigarettes or money to get him to fill out another form. Similar examples from across the United States are too numerous to count.
King County (Seattle) election officials were forced to remove 1,762 voter registrations submitted by one group of ACORN employees. Five employees were sentenced to jail. The Delaware County Times noted that out of 2,000 fraudulent voter registration forms in that Pennsylvania county, nearly every single one was filed by ACORN. Chicago had 10,000 false registrations. Criminal indictments and convictions have been leveled in numerous states.
Last year alone, voter fraud investigations took place in 12 states: Connecticut, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin.
ACORN admits (how could it not?) that it has made mistakes in accurately registering people to vote. Brian Kettenring with ACORN told the Times that most of these concerns - and linking them to the census - were "right wing fantasies." He pointed out that he guessed that "fewer than three dozen" ACORN employees have been convicted of fraud, "but that is only a guess." Kettenring also claims that many individuals who said they were paid to register numerous times had "lied."
Yet the systematic problems year after year and in state after state make it impossible to blame ACORN's problems on a few rogue employees. There is a much deeper problem here. A news story earlier this week incorrectly reported that the Census would be paying ACORN workers to count people, but the voter registration problems have occurred even without any state secretaries of state paying ACORN. The concern is why the Census should be "partnering" with an organization that has so frequently bribed people to register voters. Continued:

MORE EVIDENCE THAT MANDATORY HD TV CONVERSION IS A SET UP FOR MIND CONTROL PSYCHOTRONICS
A. True Ott PhD - January 26, 2009 - To begin with, take 10 minutes and watch this 60 Minutes Video: Leslie Stahl makes some very interesting comments on the morality and ethics of mind-control. Here are mine:
1. The technology called FMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance) is OLD and ARCHAIC actually. Mengele and others were "reading" brain waves via magnetic resonance graphing in the early 70's. Boston-Logan Airport is already using NEW light-wave beams to scan AND READ air traveler's INTENTIONS before they board the planes.
2. The GERMAN individual Stahl interviewed was very HESITANT TO REVEAL exactly WHO HAD THE MIND-READING TECHNOLOGY TODAY. Again, just look at the U.S. PATENTS issued in the last decade to realize the height and breadth of the mind-control explosion - and keep in mind that patents are usually applied for AFTER the technology has been proven to be commercially viable via working models. ---.
3. The FMRI "computer" that "reads the mind" is just one side of the coin. IT IS MUCH, MUCH EASIER TO PRODUCE EMOTIONS AND IMPULSES INTO the brain than to actually READ the brain via computer programs.
4. This technology needs much more bandwidth space than is currently provided by ANALOG SIGNALS in order to be implemented. Thus the need to switch to DIGITAL SIGNALS EXCLUSIVELY.
5. THIS TECHNOLOGY, IN THE WRONG HANDS, IS A BIGGER THREAT TO INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM THAN ANY STANDING ARMY.
6. IS HOMELAND SECURITY THE "WRONG HANDS"?? Why is this just now beginning to be reported by such news programs as "60 Minutes"?
Read this patent abstract, and then read my expose on DIGITAL TV once again in the context of Stahl's report.

OBAMA AND ACORN GPS MARKING EVERY FRONT DOOR IN AMERICA?
[EdNote: Email: May 01, 2009 EARLY CENSUS - The EARLY Obama Census, might be a Foreign Military Operation. It Is Not , A Normal Census of Congress Assembled.]
By JB Williams - April 29, 2009 - Republican Senator Judd Gregg was Obama’s first choice for the Secretary of Commerce post, and Gregg was actually considering joining the Obama team, until he found out that control of the US Census was being stripped from the Commerce Department and placed under the direct control of White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel. GPS Marking EVERY Front Door - Part II Then, the same week that Americans learned that they were “domestic terrorists”—at least according to Obama’s new DHS (Department of Homeland Security),—if they own a bible, a pocket Constitution or guns, and still believe in Life, Liberty and Freedom, - they also learned that Obama’s Census Bureau had hired thousands of new temporary employees, equipped each with a handheld GPS computer and sent them out to mark GPS coordinates for every residential front door in America.
Oddly, it was this same period that news was breaking of an international flu pandemic, suspected of being a weaponized strain of the virus never before seen, - and that Obama’s team still sees no need to close the US-Mexican border, despite the cross continental spread of a deadly illness now claiming American lives.

FRANKENFOODS: THE WORLD ACCORDING TO MONSANTO
May 13, 2009 - Posted by: Erin - H.R. 875 is barreling through Congress, and one of the chief beneficiaries of the sweeping new food regulations it creates will be agri-giant Monsanto. The bill is said to have been ghost-written by the company, and Americans are largely unaware of this looming power grab by it and the Obama administration. The bill would likely bankrupt small farmers, and organic farmers could be put out of business by the “best scientific practices” rules it contains. The enormous new agency created by the bill will determine what those practices are, and they could be pesticide and antibiotic use in the name of “safety.” The bill’s language is so broad, it will give authority over everything involved in “food” to the new Food Safety Agency. Technically, even your home garden is included. Continued: http://rightsoup.com/the-new-fda-broad-powers-over-all-farmers-big-small-backyard/

That is one ugly chart. It illustrates how Barack Obama and the spendaholics in Congress will quadruple our deficit THIS YEAR! 4 times the Bush deficit in 12 months. That’s some change you can believe in, and it isn’t chump-change. Unbelievable. What’s even MORE unbelievable is that for every dollar that is spent, 50 cents will be BORROWED, and will raise the deficit to approximately 12.9% of GDP. This puts us ahead of Hungary, Pakistan and even the U.K. on the highest deficit-to-GDP list. We’re number one! We’re number one! Yes we can! Yahoo Finance elaborates:

CHINA HAS 'CANCELED US CREDIT CARD' LAWMAKER
Apr 30, 2009 - WASHINGTON (AFP) — China, wary of the troubled US economy, has already "canceled America's credit card" by cutting down purchases of debt, a US congressman said Thursday.
China has the world's largest foreign reserves, believed to be mostly in dollars, along with around 800 billion dollars in US Treasury bonds, more than any other country. But Treasury Department data shows that investors in China have sharply curtailed their purchases of bonds in January and February.
Representative Mark Kirk, a member of the House Appropriations Committee and co-chair of a group of lawmakers promoting relations with Beijing, said China had "very legitimate" concerns about its investments.
"It would appear, quietly and with deference and politeness, that China has canceled America's credit card," Kirk told the Committee of 100, a Chinese-American group.
"I'm not sure too many people on Capitol Hill realize that this is now happening," he said.
The Republican lawmaker said that China was justified in concerns about returns from finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were bailed out by the US government due to the financial crisis.

PROCESSED MEATS DECLARED TOO DANGEROUS FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION
by Mike Adams 12/07/2007 - Hot DogsThe World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) has just completed a detailed review of more than 7,000 clinical studies covering links between diet and cancer. Its conclusion is rocking the health world with startling bluntness: Processed meats are too dangerous for human consumption. Consumers should stop buying and eating all processed meat products for the rest of their lives.
Processed meats include bacon, sausage, hot dogs, sandwich meat, packaged ham, pepperoni, salami and virtually all red meat used in frozen prepared meals. They are usually manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh. Unfortunately, sodium nitrite also results in the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines in the human body. And this leads to a sharp increase in cancer risk for those who eat them.
A 2005 University of Hawaii study found that processed meats increase the risk of pancreatic cancer by 67 percent. Another study revealed that every 50 grams of processed meat consumed daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 50 percent. These are alarming numbers. Note that these cancer risks do not come from eating fresh, non-processed meats. They only appear in people who regularly consume processed meat products containing sodium nitrite. Sodium nitrite appears predominantly in red meat products (you won't find it in chicken or fish products). Here's a short list of food items to check carefully for sodium nitrite and monosodium glutamate (MSG), another dangerous additive:
* Beef jerky
* Bacon
* Sausage
* Hot dogs
* Sandwich meat
* Frozen pizza with meat
* Canned soups with meat
* Frozen meals with meat
* Ravioli and meat pasta foods
* Kid's meals containing red meat
* Sandwich meat used at popular restaurants
* Nearly all red meats sold at public schools, restaurants, hospitals, hotels and theme parks

KISSINGER TELLS PRESIDENT MEDVEDEV... "By September We’ll Have CONFISCATED ALL PRIVATELY OWNED GUNS..."
"....Leading the United States to the shocking conclusion that their very survival is at risk has been the evaporation of 45 percent of the World’s wealth which has caused a rapid plunge in Global manufacturing leading to a 49 percent collapse in US trade exports which the International Monetary Fund is reported has caused the World’s economy to shrink for the first time in 60 years and has lead Canada’s Central Bank chief David Dodge to state the World is “facing a long and deep recession that will fundamentally alter the nature of capitalism”. Though Prime Minister Putin has warned that “resorting to a printing press would be unwise and extremely dangerous”, the already bankrupt United States, whose staggering debt is four times higher than their entire National income, has allowed its Federal Reserve Bank Chairman Ben “Throw Money Out of Helicopters” Bernanke to ‘create out of thin air’ a further $1.2 Trillion to stabilize the American economy, but which in turn has led to the collapse of the US Dollar leading the United Nations to recommend next week that the World “ditch the dollar as its reserve currency in favor of a shared basket of currencies”.
Russian economists further state in these reports that the United States has been left with ‘no other option’ than to force the massive devaluation of the US Dollar in order to ‘shake lose’ from banks and private investors the hundreds of billions they are currently hoarding and is being blamed for collapsing a United States where consumer spending accounts for two-thirds of its economy and which without money to borrow, or borrowers to loan to, is fast approaching the abyss. With the devaluation of the US dollar, however, massive inflation will ensue causing the value of these currently hoarded hundreds of billions of US Dollars to plummet and forcing them to be spent before they become totally worthless, a policy which China, the largest Global holder of US debt, has voiced increasing concerns about and have cut back on their purchases of American debt even as desperation hits their own factories as orders plunge.
These top American Officials have also assured President Medvedev that new laws being written by the Obama administration will ‘completely’ reform the American financial system by fully integrating it into a single Global Economy due to be enacted during the coming G-20 summit in London..." http://www.knowthelies.com/?q=node/3909

BORDERLESS WORLD THE LONG-HELD DREAM OF BILDERBERG GROUP
By James P. Tucker, Jr. - Bilderberg will continue to push for world government at the May 14-19 secret meeting in Vouliagmeni, Greece, according to a participant. Alice Rivlin, who has represented the Brookings Institution at Bilderberg, smiled and nodded when asked if the agenda this year includes “world government, a world without borders and an American Union.” These have been Bilderberg goals for many years but have been blocked by what participants refer to sneeringly as “nationalism.” Bilderberg intends to expand the North American Free Trade Agreement throughout the Western Hemisphere as a prelude to establishing an “American Union” similar to the European Union. The ultimate goal is a world government under the UN. Her greatest Bilderberg thrill? “Sitting next to the queen,” she replied, referring to Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands.

UK COMMON SPEAKER STEPS DOWN OVER EXPENSE SCANDAL
By JENNIFER QUINN – LONDON (AP) — 19 May 2009 - The powerful speaker of the British House of Commons resigned Tuesday, bowing to a backlash over excessive expense claims by lawmakers and becoming the first speaker in three centuries to be forced out. Though Michael Martin has not been caught up in recent revelations about lawmakers expenses — reimbursements for chandeliers, moat cleaning and mortgage payments have outraged taxpayers — he was blamed for creating a climate that allowed excesses. In an extremely short statement to the House of Commons, Martin said he would leave the post June 21 to maintain "unity" in Parliament's lower chamber. "This will allow the house to proceed to elect a new speaker," Martin said. "This is all I have to say on this matter." He then moved on to other parliamentary business as lawmakers left the chamber, surprised that such a historic moment was over so quickly.
Since details of lawmakers expense claims were revealed earlier this month, public anger has intensified as party leaders have tried to restore confidence in parliament. But the desire for change is growing. Conservative leader David Cameron is asking the public to sign a petition urging Prime Minister Gordon Brown to call an election as soon as possible, offering voters a chance to kick out lawmakers who've abused expenses.

IS SONIA SOTOMAYOR CATHOLIC? UPDATE: YES
May 26, 2009 - Steve Waldman has White House confirmation. But an administration official later elbaorated: "Judge Sotomayor was raised as a Catholic and attends church for family celebrations and other important events." Sotomayor also served with Jesuit Father Joseph O'Hare, the retired president of Fordham University, on a New York City campaign finance review council, and O'Hare told CNS that when he knew her beginning in the late 1980s "she was indeed a practicing Catholic. He said he has no reason to think that has changed. They have stayed in touch intermittently, and he said she gave his name as a reference for her FBI background check." Whatever the case, that makes Catholics six for nine of the high court. The five current Catholic justices are already an all-time high. Anyone want to go for a sweep? First question: Does it matter?
Second, the (awful) question will now be, what KIND of Catholic is she? She is divorced, without kids. Heck, she may want to downplay her practice of the faith as that will be a huge target--and it's easy to guess who'll be lobbing most of the heavy ordinance.
Sotomayor was born in the Bronx (cheers!) to parents from Puerto Rico, and she attended Catholic schools. From a May 14 New York Times profile: Judge Sotomayor, 54, grew up in a Bronx housing project, a child of Puerto Rican parents. She would be the court's first Hispanic justice. Her father died when she was 9, leaving her mother to raise her and a brother. In speeches to Latino groups over the years, Judge Sotomayor has recalled how her mother worked six days a week as a nurse to send her and her brother to Catholic school, purchased the only set of encyclopedias in the neighborhood and kept a warm pot of rice and beans on the stove every day for their friends.
She loved Nancy Drew mysteries, she once said, and yearned to be a police detective. But a doctor who diagnosed her childhood diabetes suggested that would be difficult. She traded her adoration of Nancy for an allegiance to Perry -- she became a fan of Perry Mason on television, she said, and decided to become a lawyer. She went to Princeton, which she has described as a life-changing experience. When she arrived on campus from the Bronx, she said it was like "a visitor landing in an alien country." She never raised her hand in her first year there. "I was too embarrassed and too intimidated to ask questions," Judge Sotomayor said.

THE FINANCIAL NEW WORLD ORDER: TOWARDS A GLOBAL CURRENCY AND WORLD GOVERNMENT
by Andrew G. Marshall - Global Research, April 6, 2009 - Introduction - Following the 2009 G20 summit, plans were announced for implementing the creation of a new global currency to replace the US dollar’s role as the world reserve currency. Point 19 of the communiqué released by the G20 at the end of the Summit stated, “We have agreed to support a general SDR allocation which will inject $250bn (£170bn) into the world economy and increase global liquidity.” SDRs, or Special Drawing Rights, are “a synthetic paper currency issued by the International Monetary Fund.” As the Telegraph reported, “the G20 leaders have activated the IMF's power to create money and begin global "quantitative easing". In doing so, they are putting a de facto world currency into play. It is outside the control of any sovereign body. Conspiracy theorists will love it.” The article continued in stating that, “There is now a world currency in waiting. In time, SDRs are likely to evolve into a parking place for the foreign holdings of central banks, led by the People's Bank of China.” Further, “The creation of a Financial Stability Board looks like the first step towards a global financial regulator,” or, in other words, a global central bank.
It is important to take a closer look at these “solutions” being proposed and implemented in the midst of the current global financial crisis. These are not new suggestions, as they have been in the plans of the global elite for a long time. However, in the midst of the current crisis, the elite have fast-tracked their agenda of forging a New World Order in finance. It is important to address the background to these proposed and imposed “solutions” and what effects they will have on the International Monetary System (IMS) and the global political economy as a whole.
A New Bretton-Woods
In October of 2008, Gordon Brown, Prime Minister of the UK, said that we “must have a new Bretton Woods - building a new international financial architecture for the years ahead.” He continued in saying that, “we must now reform the international financial system around the agreed principles of transparency, integrity, responsibility, good housekeeping and co-operation across borders.” An article in the Telegraph reported that Gordon Brown would want “to see the IMF reformed to become a ‘global central bank’ closely monitoring the international economy and financial system.” Continued: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=13070

FORECLOSURE WOES MOUNT FOR THOSE WITH GOOD CREDIT
In this file photo taken Feb. 18, 2009, a for sale sign stands outside a bank-owned home in North Las Vegas. A record 12 percent of homeowners with a mortgage are behind on their payments or in foreclosure as the housing crisis spreads to borrowers with good credit. Jae C. HongBy J.W. ELPHINSTONE (AP Real Estate Writer)
From Associated Press May 28, 2009 - NEW YORK - A record 12 percent of homeowners with a mortgage are behind on their payments or in foreclosure as the housing crisis spreads to borrowers with good credit. And the wave of foreclosures isn't expected to crest until the end of next year, the Mortgage Bankers Association said Thursday. The foreclosure rate on prime fixed-rate loans doubled in the last year, and now represents the largest share of new foreclosures. Nearly 6 percent of fixed-rate mortgages to borrowers with good credit were in the foreclosure process. At the same time, almost half of all adjustable-rate loans made to borrowers with shaky credit were past due or in foreclosure. The worst of the trouble continues to be centered in California, Nevada, Arizona and Florida, which accounted for 46 percent of new foreclosures in the country. There were no signs of improvement.
The pain, however, is spreading throughout the country as job losses take their toll. The number of newly laid off people requesting jobless benefits fell last week, the government said Thursday, but the number of people receiving unemployment benefits was the highest on record. These borrowers are harder for lenders to help with loan modifications. President Barack Obama's recent loan modification and refinancing plan might stem some foreclosures, but not enough to significantly alter the crisis. "It may be too much to say that numbers will fall because of the plan. It's more correct to say that the numbers won't be as high," said Jay Brinkmann, chief economist for the Mortgage Bankers Association.

OBAMA MOVES TO CURB ROAD-BUILDING IN FORESTS [LONGTERM]
By MATTHEW DALY (Associated Press Writer)
From Associated Press - May 28, 2009 - WASHINGTON - The Obama administration is ordering a one-year moratorium on most road-building and other development on about 50 million acres of remote national forests. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack issued a directive Thursday reinstating for one year most of a Clinton-era ban against new road construction and development in national forests. The 2001 rule banned road-building and logging in more than 58 million acres of remote national forests, mostly in the West. Conflicting court decisions issued since then have left the so-called roadless rule's legal status in doubt. Environmental groups consider the road ban crucial since road-building is often the first step toward logging, drilling, mining and other development in the forest backcountry. Critics of the ban say roads are needed to fight wildfires and log small trees that otherwise could serve as fuel for catastrophic fires.Continued: http://www.ourforests.org/
