---------- Inspiration For the Week-------"If
we walk in the light, as He is in the light." John
1:7
As He is in the light! Can we ever attain to this? Shall we ever be able
to walk as clearly in the light as He is whom we call "Our Father,"
of whom it is written, "God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all"?
Certainly, this is the model which it set before us, for the Saviour Himself
said, "Be ye perfect, even as your Father who is in heaven is perfect";
and although we may feel that we can never rival the perfection of God, yet
we are to seek after it, and never to be satisfied until we attain to it.
The youthful artist, as he grasps his early pencil, can hardly hope to equal
Raphael or Michael Angelo, but still, if he did not have a noble beau ideal
before his mind, he would only attain to something very mean and ordinary.
But what is meant by the expression that the Christian is to walk in light
as God is in the light? We conceive it to import likeness, but not degree.
We are as truly in the light, we are as heartily in the light, we are as sincerely
in the light, as honestly in the light, though we cannot be there in the same
measure. I cannot dwell in the sun, it is too bright a place for my residence,
but I can walk in the light of the sun; and so, though I cannot attain to
that perfection of purity and truth which belongs to the Lord of hosts by
nature as the infinitely good, yet I can set the Lord always before me, and
strive, by the help of the indwelling Spirit, after conformity to His image.
That famous old commentator, John Trapp, says, "We may be in the light
as God is in the light for quality, but not for equality." We are to
have the same light, and are as truly to have it and walk in it as God does,
though, as for equality with God in His holiness and purity, that must be
left until we cross the Jordan and enter into the perfection of the Most High.
Mark that the blessings of sacred fellowship and perfect cleansing are bound
up with walking in the light. (C.H. Spurgeon, "Morning
and Evening Devotions")
---------- Resource Update ----------
UPDATE:
Our new DVD, "Secret
Mysteries of America's Beginnings" is going to be slightly delayed,
until either the first or the second week of January. A bad bought of flu
swept through Adullum Films last week, causing the entire week to be lost.
We thank all who bought ahead of time through our Pre-Publication Sale, for
those monies helped immensely in raising the last of the monies needed to
bring the video to fruition.
Please be in much prayer for this video project, because the quality of the
video, plus the quality of the script-writing, may be opening doors wide to
distribution we had never considered when we started this project. We believe
the History Channel will be interested in this video, plus video stores and
even mass market retail stores.
Pray that the Holy Spirit will cause a wide distribution so people can finally
know the truth -- the whole truth -- about the founding of America. Cutting
Edge is firmly of the opinion that the major reason people cannot see the
truth of their leaders today is because they do not know the whole truth about
the creation of our country and its Founding Fathers.
This video series -- Volumes One through Four -- are designed to change that
thinking. Please pray.

"Subliminal Seduction #2: DVD - How The Mass Media
Uses Modern Technology to Manipulate the Minds of the Masses"
-- 3-DVD Set
Just in time for your TV and movie watching over the Holidays! Most people
have no idea how they are being manipulated through these mediums they watch
every single day -- they and their children!
Significant upgrade over #1. This is a 3-DVD set, whereas #1 was only one
DVD. Much more material, many more examples -- "And the whole earth went
after the Beast in amazement and admiration ... they also praised and worshipped
the Beast..." (Rev 13:3,4)
How can everyone on earth be convinced to worship the Beast in "amazement
and admiration"? The answer is "Subliminal Seduction", a Mind
Control art whose roots are deeply embedded in Satanism and Witchcraft!
If an average person watches 4 1/2 hours of TV daily and is exposed to 1,000
hours of commercials, their minds are being molded so they will "rush
after the Beast".
People find it difficult to believe that Subliminal techniques are being
used in Mass Media today because they incorrectly believe that Congress outlawed
the practice in the 1950's.
"Subliminal Seduction" will not only open your eyes to how you
are being manipulated, but will enable you to live in the most occult-inspired
times in world history. Don't let the devil seduce you! fight back by getting
equipped with the truth today. -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=1252

"Combo Offer: Order of Death Video + Dark Secrets
of the Bohemian Grove" -- On One DVD
Proves Presidents Bush and Clinton, plus officials like Henry Kissinger and
Colin Powell, are Satanists!
Alex Jones presents his newest film, "The Order of Death", an amazing
and horrifying look into the rites and rituals of the modern day descendents
of Babylonian mystery cults. "Dark Secrets: Inside the Bohemian Grove"
documented the first ever hidden camera incursion into the Grove and the bizarre
pagan ritual, the Cremation of Care, practiced by its members, all men, including
both Presidents Bush, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Colin Powell, and Henry
Kissenger to name but a few.
"The Order of Death" picks up where "Dark Secrets" leaves
off. This new work exposes the connections between the Bohemian Club and Skull
and Bones and other occult secret societies. Jones explores the roots of the
Grove and its links to occult networks dating back to ancient Egypt and Babylon.
his new film delves deeply into the history of the Grove where powerful men
make decisions that affect the world but are completely hidden from public
scrutiny. "The Order of Death" details how the Grove has been the
backdrop for some of the most earth shattering events in human history including
the development of the Starwars program and the Manhattan Project.
"The Order of Death" also features never before seen footage captured
by a daring former Grove employee including an astounding look inside the
owl worshiped at the Cremation of Care ritual.
Note: "Cremation of Care" is a know Illuminist Satanic ritual;
therefore, Presidents Bush and Clinton and all other American leaders participating
in Bohemian Grove are proven to be Satanic! -- http://www.cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=1249

"Anti-Christ -- An Alternate Ending"
- DVD
Modern Fundamental Bible Scholars are united on the doctrine that Antichrist
will come from a "Revived Roman Empire". Most assume that means
he will come from Western Europe -- which is the Western "leg" of
the Ancient Roman Empire.
When studying prophecies concerning the AntiChrist, we should remember that
the Roman Empire had an eastern leg that, in fact, survived the western leg
by a thousand years!
There may be far more relevance to Iraq and the mid-east region than is commonly
recognized in most books and articles on end-time prophecy. All of us tend
to equate the Roman Empire with Western Europe. However, we may have been
subject to myopia by overlooking an important fact. The Roman Empire had an
eastern leg. Could Antichrist come from that Eastern portion?
While Cutting Edge does not entirely subscribe to this possibility, we do
recognize that Missler has done some very strong and thorough Biblical Exegesis
to arrive at this possible conclusion. We also continue to disagree with Missler
on his politics. But, this DVD is thought-provoking!

"CD - America, The Babylon: America's Destiny,
Foretold In Biblical Prophecy" - 2 Books On This CDROM - by R.A.
Coombes
As America nears judgment for her many sins, Christians are asking why she
is not mentioned in prophecy. Mr. Coombes painstakingly examines Revelation
17 and 18 and relevant Old Testament texts to show that America is likely
the nation destroyed in these judgments of God.
Cutting Edge has long taught that America is most certainly the Economic
Babylon of Rev 18; but we have been surprised, as you certainly shall be,
of Mr. Coombes' research concerning Revelation 17 being America.
Given the lateness of the prophetic hour, these two books are sadly needed.
Volume 1 is a primary exposition of Revelation plus Old Testament texts, and
is more exegetical and analytical in nature. Volume 2 reviews American history,
showing our Founding Fathers as the true Illuminists they were, showing that
our true national foundation was not Christian, defines the Illuminati, and
takes you right up to this modern era to see how the global plan is working
to its soon completion
Two books for reading on one CDROM, for only $24.99. Volume 1 is 225 pages,
while Volume 2 is 388 pages long

"Sinister Forces In Early America: A Shocking Alternative
To The Conventional View of American History" - Hardback Book
AMERICAN POLITICAL WITCHCRAFT -- The roots of "coincidence" and
conspiracy in American politics, crime and culture is exposed in this fascinating
new book. You will finally understand the early connections between religion,
political conspiracy in high places, and outright occult practice. It is true:
some key American Founding Fathers were practicing the Dark Arts!
The author contends that a matrix of politics and violence alone is incapable
of explaining the demented 20th Century that shuddered to an end in Manhattan
on 9/11/2001. What is needed is an examination of the "third dimension"
-- and this dimension is the "occult". But, the practice of the
occult goes far beyond any normal realm, for its power reaches into the halls
of politics and power. Once this fact is properly understood, the evil, bloody
20th Century shudders into focus.
You will see what lies behind those masques of secrecy! And, you will understand
how it impacts your life and well-being. This book understands that there
is a Satanic undercurrent to American affairs. For this reason, our history
is littered with astonishing coincidences, improbable but factual interconnections,
occasional exposures of buried government history, outright assassinations
and inexplicable historic conjunctions which scream out for explanation when
none can be provided by Conventional Wisdom.
Readers are taken from ancient American civilization, to mysterious Pre-Columbian
mound-makers, to the Salem Witch Trials, the birth of Mormonism during a ritual
of ceremonial magick by Joseph Smith, plus Operations Paperclip and Bluebird.
Fascinating details revealed of the bizarre world of "wandering bishops"
who appeared throughout the Kennedy assassinations, a CIA mind control program
running amok, the famous American spiritual leader who had ties to Lee Harvey
Oswald in the weeks before the Kennedy assassination , and the horrible "Manson
Secret" -- and of course, to the current UFO and Alien obsession.

---------- This Weeks Hot News ----------
I.
Great Britain is instituting the same surveillance planned for America, surveillance
so tight our freedoms and liberties can be taken away, and the prophecy of
Revelation 13:16-18 fulfilled to the letter.
NEWS BRIEF: "Britain
will be first country to monitor every car journey: From 2006 Britain
will be the first country where every journey by every car will be monitored",
The Independent, 23 December 2005
" Britain is to become the first country in the world where the movements
of all vehicles on the roads are recorded. A new national surveillance system
will hold the records for at least two years. Using a network of cameras that
can automatically read every passing number plate, the plan is to build a
huge database of vehicle movements so that the police and security services
can analyze any journey a driver has made over several years ... By next March
a central database installed alongside the Police National Computer in Hendon,
north London, will store the details of 35 million number-plate 'reads' per
day. These will include time, date and precise location, with camera sites
monitored by global positioning satellites.
"But others concerned about civil liberties will be worried that the
movements of millions of law-abiding people will soon be routinely recorded
and kept on a central computer database for years .... The scheme is being
orchestrated by the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) and has the
full backing of ministers ... More than 50 local authorities have signed agreements
to allow the police to convert thousands of existing traffic cameras so they
can read number plates automatically."
Note that this draconian system of tracking the movement of every car on
every trip in every part of Great Britain utilizes the network of existing
cameras! Therefore, it is not hard to understand that all the calls all these
past years for cameras to be set up in every city and town and on every road
was simply a precursor to this system! Despite repeated denials that local
cameras would never be used to infringe upon the freedom of any law-abiding
citizen, we can see now that authorities undoubtedly had this end game in
mind from the very beginning.
In America, similar cameras are going up all over this county. City and town
authorities are using Federal monies to purchase cameras, all for the express
purpose of "driving criminals from the road". Yet, one day soon,
we shall learn that enough cameras in enough localities are now in place to
carry out similar monitoring of every single trip that every single law-abiding
citizen will ever take.
This loss of personal anonymity of individual American citizens presages
the loss of individual freedoms. These chilling events may very well spell
the end to personal freedom in the United States and around the world. Our
Founding Fathers clearly understood that personal freedom depended upon personal
anonymity. If a government could know what people were doing, and with whom
they were associating, that government could act to take away the freedom
of either their political foes or the entire population. Therefore, we received
certain Constitutional rights and privileges to that our Founding Fathers
hoped would preserve our personal anonymity.
To understand how important this personal anonymity is to personal freedom,
you only have to examine the practices of every dictatorship in history. Each
dictatorship developed and maintained an extensive internal police surveillance
department that spread its tentacles throughout the citizenry to spot dissidents
or others deemed a threat to the dictatorship. Even neighbors were used to
spy on each other. Without this internal surveillance, the leaders of the
dictatorship felt threatened.
As we head into the New World Order, we find a threat to personal anonymity
and hence, personal freedom, at an all-time high. This new global system is
foretold by the Bible to be the most repressive in history, so we should be
concerned.
But, on the other hand, we should be excited, for this kind of tight, minute-by-minute
control of every person on earth is foretold in prophecy -- in the "Mark
of the Beast" prophecy found in Revelation 13:16-18.
POPULATION CONTROL OF REVELATION
13:16-18 "MARK OF THE BEAST"
Of course, another innovation required to make this system work is a totally
cashless economic system. Bible scholars prior to the advent of the computer
knew that this "Mark of the Beast" system required the economy of
Antichrist to be cashless, but had no idea how that would be practically possible.
But, now, every Christian familiar with prophecy has no problem believing
that all transactions will some day be cashless, so much so that paper and
coin currency will actually be eliminated. Computers made all this possible.
Computers have also made it possible for this camera surveillance
system to be implemented in Great Britain, and powerful computers will make
it possible for authorities to properly sift through every tiny detail of
the data these cameras will be daily producing. This type of system is exactly
the kind of individual control that we would expect as the world gets close
to the actual appearance of Antichrist.
Listen to the Illuminati Plan, which so closely parallels the
kind of controlled society foretold in Revelation 13:16-18.
"Eventually every individual element of the structure comes
under computer control through a knowledge of personal preferences, such knowledge
guaranteed by computer association of consumer preferences (universal product
code -- UPC -- zebra-stripe pricing codes on packages) ... society becomes
a well-regulated animal with its reins under the control of a sophisticated
computer-regulated social energy bookkeeping system." [Bill Cooper, "Behold
A Pale Horse", p. 44)
Did you catch the relevant phrase? "society becomes a well-regulated
animal with its reins under the control of a sophisticated computer-regulated
social energy bookkeeping system."
What does Scripture foretell? "And
he causeth all"

II. As the fallout continues to roil over President
Bush's clandestine decision to circumvent both the Constitution and the 1978
Intelligence Act by ordering eavesdropping on citizens without court approval,
the fact is lost in the news muddle that the most important eavesdropping
tool is deeply flawed and has led to innocent people being accused.
NEWS BRIEF: "Worldwide
Conversations Being Received By Echelon System May Fall Into Wrong Hands and
Innocent People May Be Tagged As Spies", 60 MINUTES Transcript,
Television Broadcast February 27, 2000
"If you made a phone call today or sent an e-mail to a friend, there's
a good chance what you said or wrote was captured and screened by the country's
largest intelligence agency. The top-secret Global Surveillance Network is
called Echelon, and it's run by the National Security Agency and four English-speaking
allies: Canada, Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand. The mission is to
eavesdrop on enemies of the state: foreign countries, terrorist groups and
drug cartels. But in the process, Echelon's computers capture virtually every
electronic conversation around the world ... How does it work, and what happens
to all the information that's gathered? A lot of people have begun to ask
that question, and some suspect that the information is being used for more
than just catching bad guys."
NOTE: From now on in this segment, the conversation occurs between the moderator,
Kroft, and Mr. MIKE FROST (Former Spy)!
KROFT: (Voiceover) We can't see them, but the air around us is filled with
invisible electronic signals, everything from cell phone conversations to
fax transmissions to ATM transfers. What most people don't realize is that
virtually every signal radiated across the electromagnetic spectrum is being
collected and analyzed. How much of the world is covered by them?
Mr. MIKE FROST (Former Spy): The entire world, the whole planet--covers everything.
Echelon covers everything that's radiated worldwide at any given instant.
KROFT: Every square inch is covered.
Mr. FROST: Every square inch is covered.
KROFT: (Voiceover) Mike Frost spent 20 years as a spy for the CSE, the Canadian
equivalent of the National Security Agency, and he is the only high-ranking
former intelligence agent to speak publicly about the Echelon program. Frost
even showed us one of the installations where he says operators can listen
in to just about anything.
Mr. FROST: Everything from--from data transfers to cell phones to portable
phones to baby monitors to ATMs......
KROFT: (Voiceover) Inside each globe are huge dishes which intercept and
download satellite communications from around the world. The information is
then sent on to NSA headquarters at Fort Meade, Maryland, where acres of supercomputers
scan millions of transmissions word by word, looking for key phrases and,
some say, specific voices that may be of major significance.
Mr. FROST: Everything is looked at. The entire take is looked at. And the
computer sorts out what it is told to sort out, be it, say, by key words such
as 'bomb' or 'terrorist' or 'blow up,' to telephone numbers -- or a person's
name. And people are getting caught, and that's great ....
KROFT: (Voiceover) ... Is it possible for people like you and I, innocent
civilians, to be targeted by Echelon?
Mr. FROST: Not only possible, not only probable, but factual. While I was
at CSE, a classic example: A lady had been to a school play the night before,
and her son was in the school play and she thought he did a lousy job. Next
morning, she was talking on the telephone to her friend, and she said to her
friend something like this, 'Oh, Danny really bombed last night,' just like
that. The computer spit that conversation out. The analyst that was looking
at it was not too sure about what the conversation was referring to, so erring
on the side of caution, he listed that lady and her phone number in the database
as a possible terrorist.
KROFT: This is not urban legend you're talking about. This actually happened?
Mr. FROST: Factual. Absolutely fact. No legend here.
KROFT: (Voiceover) Back in the 1970s, the NSA was caught red-handed spying
on anti-war protesters like Jane Fonda and Dr. Benjamin Spock, and it turns
out they had been recording the conversations of civil rights leaders like
Martin Luther King in the 1960s. When Congress found out, it drafted strict,
new laws prohibiting the NSA from spying on Americans, but today, there's
enough renewed concern about potential abuses that Congress is revisiting
the issue."
Can you imagine that a completely innocent lady is now listed in a database
as a terrorist because she innocently used the word, "bombed" in
a conversation the day after her son performed badly in a school play? This
lady may have trouble one day flying on a commercial airliner or getting credit,
especially as controls are tightened as we move into the New World Order.
On the Cutting Edge Daily News Updates for November 23, 2001, we had posted
an article reporting that Europeans were outraged over revelations of the
capabilities of this system and of the key people being targeted.
NEWS BRIEF: "Europeans
Enraged Over Echelon Orbital Surveillance", Rense.com, By
Alex Canizares, Special to SPACE.com, 11-21-2001
"WASHINGTON (States News Service) - Fearing that governments are misusing
a global surveillance system to eavesdrop on millions of people, Europeans
are protesting a massive Cold War security network known as Echelon. The government-operated
security system -- meant to target terrorists, drug-traffickers and money-launderers
by intercepting communications between satellites and ground stations -- is
now drawing protests by activist groups .... Shrouded in secrecy, Echelon
is said to be able to scan millions of phone conversations, e-mails, faxes
and pages a day, searching for particular words or phrases ... "
"The European Parliament, which held hearings on Echelon, is claiming
that the United States and Britain already are spying on European companies
and sharing corporate details with companies in their own countries ... The
frenzy reached a crescendo last week when British newspapers reported that
both Britain and the United States have eavesdropped on the late Princess
Diana, as well as Mark Thatcher, son of former British prime minister Margaret
Thatcher. While none of the allegations have been proven, experts say the
ability for ground-based stations to scan satellite communications for key
words is very real."
From now on, innocent, law-abiding citizens are going to have to be most
careful in what they say, lest they be listed in the government's database
as a "terrorist". And, the most unbelievable thing in all this is
that this entire effort at intrusion into our private affairs is being justified
by the attacks of 9/11 -- attacks which have been proven to any reasonable
person as having been "Agent Provocateur" operation, i.e., action
carried out by government operatives in order to blame someone else so a government
goal can be realized.
The 1995 Illuminati
Card Game proves this fact beyond all reasonable doubt.

III. President Bush found himself in deepening
political trouble this past week. Let us review the pertinent news stories.
NEWS BRIEF: "Blowback
for Bush: Domestic spying scandal couldn’t have come at a more inappropriate
time for President Bush, could be 'body blow' ", Khaleez Times,
18 December 2005
"THE political storm over the domestic spying scandal couldn’t
have come at a more inappropriate time for President Bush. This could be a
body blow to the President who is already under fire over Iraq and the CIA
torture flights to Europe and Middle East. The support for the US leader has
already been steadily declining at home as the Americans watch his handling
of Iraq with increasing uneasiness. No wonder the majority of Americans, who
had convinced themselves that the US ‘war on terror’ around the
world was inevitable and necessary, find it hard to digest the fact that their
government has been watching and spying on them in the true Orwellian fashion.
The outrage has been swift and widespread. According to opinion polls, 87
per cent of the Americans have responded angrily to the spying reports. Parallels
are being drawn with President Richard Nixon’s infamous Watergate scandal.
"... In yet another devastating blow to the administration, the Senate
has refused to renew the controversial Patriot Act that had been rushed through
after the September 11 attacks. Human rights groups and media in and outside
US have criticised the anti-terror law as undermining civil liberties and
democratic values celebrated in the US constitution. In another important
development, Bush has been forced to withdraw opposition to the ban on torture,
thanks to a courageous stand taken by Republican Senator John McCain ... it
betrays a considerably sobered presidency."
Since February, 2004, Cutting Edge has regularly been noting the many ways
in which it seemed President Bush was coming under fire from people as Illuminist
as he! We said then, and repeat it now, that it does seem that Bush is being
deliberately discredited. If he is discredited and brought down -- either
in stature or out of office -- the Illuminati will have destroyed the only
two forces they really fear: 1) National Sovereignty; 2)
Fundamental Christianity.
Now, let us continue this storyline.
NEWS BRIEF: "Bush
Defends Secret Spying in the U.S. ", The Guardian (London),
December 18, 2005
"WASHINGTON (AP) - Facing angry criticism and challenges to his authority
in Congress, President Bush on Saturday unapologetically defended his administration's
right to conduct secret post-Sept. 11 spying in the United States as 'critical
to saving American lives' ... House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.,
said she had been told on several occasions that Bush had authorized unspecified
activities by the National Security Agency, the nation's largest spy agency.
She said she had expressed strong concerns at the time, and that Bush's statement
Saturday 'raises serious questions as to what the activities were and whether
the activities were lawful'."
"Often appearing angry in an eight-minute address, the president made
clear he has no intention of halting his authorizations of the monitoring
activities and said public disclosure of the program by the news media had
endangered Americans. Bush's willingness to publicly acknowledge a highly
classified spying program was a stunning development for a president known
to dislike disclosure of even the most mundane inner workings of his White
House."
"Since October 2001, the super-secret National Security Agency has eavesdropped
on the international phone calls and e-mails of people inside the United States
without court-approved warrants. Bush said steps like these would help fight
terrorists like those who involved in the Sept. 11 plot ... News of the program
came at a particularly damaging and delicate time. Already, the administration
was under fire for allegedly operating secret prisons in Eastern Europe and
shipping suspected terrorists to other countries for harsh interrogations
... Bush said his authority to approve what he called a 'vital tool in our
war against the terrorists'' came from his constitutional powers as commander
in chief. He said that he has personally signed off on reauthorizations more
than 30 times."
"James Bamford, author of two books on the NSA, said the program could
be problematic because it bypasses a special court set up by the 1978 Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act to authorize eavesdropping on suspected terrorists.
``I didn't hear him specify any legal right, except his right as president,
which in a democracy doesn't make much sense,'' Bamford said in an interview.
'Today, what Bush said is he went around the law, which is a violation of
the law - which is illegal'.''
Cutting Edge has repeatedly stated that Americans are historically more in
danger of suffering incremental loss of liberty under a Republican President
than a Democrat. We are certainly seeing this axiom coming true, are we not?
That fact that these difficulties for President Bush are coming out piecemeal,
thus forcing him to "twist in the wind", leads me to conclude again
that we are seeing the outworking of a plan to discredit President Bush and
all for which he stands.
We can see further elements of this tactic in the article, below.
NEWS BRIEF: "GOP
Ranks Breaking Over Bush's Tactics: Recent administration setbacks
and scandals have sparked concern and resistance over the broad powers he
has used to fight terrorism", L.A. Times, December 18, 2005
"WASHINGTON — Even as he has faced the defeat of domestic priorities
and growing opposition to the U.S. engagement in Iraq, President Bush has
always been able to rely on one great asset: broad political support for his
conduct of the struggle against terrorism. But now, four years after Sept.
11, concerns are rising even among fellow Republicans over some of the tools
he is using in that effort, and Bush finds himself defending the very war
that defined his presidency and assured his reelection. Bush's surprising
admission Saturday that he had ordered domestic communications surveillance
without court approval came as Republicans once willing to give the White
House wide legal berth on security matters have begun to call for greater
scrutiny of U.S. conduct."
"Republican lawmakers have in recent days rebuked the White House in
its opposition to an all-out ban on torture ... and have demanded information
on a newly revealed network of secret CIA prisons around the world. At the
same time, the Republican-led Senate refused Friday to renew the Patriot Act,
expressing growing concern about the anti-terrorism law's effect on civil
liberties. The unease within his party — and the specter of hearings
on Capitol Hill on some of the anti-terrorism tactics used — suggests
the national debate is beginning to shift on how much latitude Bush can claim
in the name of national security."
".... Bush was clearly on the defensive Saturday. And despite arguing
that Americans "expect me to do everything in my power under our laws
and Constitution to protect them and their civil liberties," he faced
the prospect of an increasingly restive Republican Congress ... Although polls
suggest the public remains supportive of government vigilance against terrorism,
many Republicans are wary that — at the outset of the 2006 midterm election
season — Democrats could paint certain methods as violations of traditional
American values.
" 'We need to be mindful of Ben Franklin's words over 200 years ago:
Those who would give up essential liberty in the pursuit of a little temporary
security deserve neither liberty nor security', Sununu said Friday."
I well remember the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. Within hours
of the attack, talking heads were framing their debates by asking the question,
"How many freedoms will Americans be willing to give up to gain greater
security?"
The immediacy of this terrible line of debate clearly indicated to me that
these attacks WERE, indeed, designed to severely erode our freedoms. Every
action since then by this Administration have just strengthened this belief.
Today, Patriot Acts I and II, plus the laws built around them, will deliver
Americans to a dictatorship. We are closer to this goal than ever before.
Do not be deceived by this Planned Struggle between Republicans and Democrats
over President Bush's policies. Both parties are equally committed to the
New World Order; this "struggle" is just going to result in achievement
of other goals -- quite possibly the thorough discrediting of the President,
as noted above.
NEWS BRIEF: "Bush's
false choices", By Ellen Goodman, The Boston Globe, December
23, 2005
"SO IT COMES DOWN to September 11, 2001. Again. The president has drawn
a great dividing line through the country, separating his supporters from
his critics. Again. This time, those who see a presidency run amok are not
just labeled ''defeatists." They are considered amnesiacs. This time,
those who oppose torture are diagnosed with short-term memory loss. Those
who are outraged at domestic snooping are people who have forgotten to be
afraid. The president's ''humble' speech from the Oval Office contained the
inevitable line: ''September the 11th, 2001, required us to take every emerging
threat to our country seriously'. His decidedly unhumble wrestling with the
media on the subject of domestic spying had no less than 10 references to
''this new threat [that] required us to think and act differently'."
Again, I well remember the immediate aftermath of the attacks of 9/11. President
Bush and some of his Cabinet members, stated that they were determined to
fight terrorism while preserving American freedoms. However, they immediately
began to demand dictatorial powers, which when enacted, would take away those
very freedoms they were pledging to preserve.
Do not be deceived: our freedoms and liberties are targeted for absolute
destruction. You must ignore the official rhetoric to understand this reality.
NEWS BRIEF: "'Impeachment'
Talk, Pro and Con, Appears in Media at Last", Truth Out
Editorial, December 23, 2005
"Suddenly this week, scattered outposts in the media have started mentioning
the 'I' word, or at least the 'IO' phrase: impeach or impeachable offense.
The sudden outbreak of anger or candor .... has been sparked by the uproar
over revelations of a White House approved domestic spying program, with some
conservatives joining in the shouting. Ron Hutcheson, White House correspondent
for Knight Ridder Newspapers (known as 'Hutch' to the president), observed
that 'some legal experts asserted that Bush broke the law on a scale that
could warrant his impeachment'. Indeed such talk from legal experts was common
in print or on cable news."
"Newsweek online noted a 'chorus' of impeachment chat, and its Washington
reporter, Howard Fineman, declared that Bush opponents are 'calling him Nixon
2.0' and have already hauled forth no less an authority than John Dean to
testify to the president's dictatorial perfidy. The 'I-word' is out there,
and, I predict, you are going to hear more of it next year - much more."
"... John Dean, who knows something about these matters, calls Bush
"the first President to admit to an impeachable offense." And one
of those thoroughly unscientific MSNBC online polls found about 88% backing
the idea through late Wednesday .... On Wednesday, Washington Post blogger/columnist
Dan Froomkin, declaring that "The 'I-word' is back," assembled an
array of quotes on the subject. Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), he pointed
out, sent a letter this week to four unidentified presidential scholars, asking
whether they think Bush's authorization of warrantless domestic spying amounted
to an impeachable offense.
"Todd Gillman wrote in the Dallas Morning News: 'Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga.,
suggested that Mr. Bush's actions could justify impeachment'. And Froomkin
cited Jonathan Turley, a law professor at George Washington University and
a specialist in surveillance law, saying 'When the president admits that he
violated federal law, that raises serious constitutional questions of high
crimes and misdemeanors."
Remember this fact: an impeachment of a sitting President is as much political
will as it is genuine impeachable offenses. Therefore, as long as the Republicans
retain control of Congress, all talk of impeachment will undoubtedly be just
that -- talk. But, if Democrats were to gain control of one or both houses
of Congress, impeachment might gain enough traction to actually make it happen.
IV.
As the Senate approval process over Judge Allito's appointment to the Supreme
Court ground along silently, most Americans are unaware of the severe menace
posed by the Roman Catholic majority which his approval would produce!
NEWS BRIEF: "Divided
Allegiance: Judge Alito's Appointment to the Supreme Court - New Catholic
Majority Supreme Court Shaping Up?", by Dr. Douglas D. Stauffer,
Southwest Radio Bible Church
" On October 31, 2005, Samuel A. Alito, Jr. was nominated for a seat
on the U.S. Supreme Court. Although many persons identify this day as Halloween,
many Protestants celebrate it as Reformation Day-the birth of the Protestant
faith. On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door
of the Catholic church in Wittenberg, Germany. It is quite ironic that President
Bush chose this day to nominate this man whose confirmation would create the
first majority-Catholic Supreme Court in the history of the United States.
Alito would become the 112th Supreme Court justice and the 12th Catholic on
the High Court. He would become the 5th Catholic presently sitting on the
Court."
"All three branches of the government, including the judiciary, were
to be guided by God and His word. Religious values were to be the fabric of
our society and were to control a judge's professional obligations. Like everyone
else, judges will answer to a higher authority. However, problems arise when
that higher authority appears to be a mere mortal rather than Almighty God.
Can a Catholic-majority Supreme Court disregard the pope on certain conflicting
issues or will it reinvent the Constitution so that the pope can reign supreme
in this land, as he has in many European countries? Most Americans do not
realize the extent of the antagonism that has existed between the claims of
the papacy and the sovereign rights of nations. God provided His design for
civil government. Our original system of government-a Republic-originated
from the book of Isaiah. The founding fathers applied what they learned from
the Bible to establish the greatest form of government ever known to man."
"For the LORD is our judge (judicial
branch), the LORD is our lawgiver (legislative branch), the LORD is our king
(executive branch); he will save us." (Isaiah 33:22).
"Catholics Banned From Holding Office --
"The early documents of the various colonies reveal that the founders
had very real concerns concerning the divided loyalties of Catholics. Unlike
some of the other colonies, Georgia did not establish a state religion. The
Protestant settlers were allowed to worship as they pleased, but they felt
a very real threat from Catholics who owed their allegiance elsewhere. The
original founding documents of the colonies and states prove this."
At this point, the author lists those states who originally passed laws forbidding
Catholics from holding office:
* Charter of the Georgia Colony in 1732
* The New Jersey Constitution of 1776
* North Carolina Constitution of 1776
" Many of the other state constitutions read very similar to that of
New Jersey."
Our Founding Fathers were very well aware of the dangers of Catholic adherents
holding public office. They were sick and tired of the kings of Europe wreaking
tyranny, bloodshed, torture, and injustice upon their own citizens. They were
sick and tired of the role the Roman Catholic Pope had exerted in Europe and
Great Britain in forcing individual monarchs to murder their own people under
the threat of personal excommunication, an act which kings believed would
land them in eternal Hell. By the time of the American Revolution, the Catholic
Office of the Inquisition had been raining down death, torture, and destruction
for nearly 1,300 years (NOTE: The Inquisition began in 600 A.D., aimed primarily
at practitioners of Black Magick Witchcraft; Peter Tomkins, "The
Magic of Obelisks", p. 55).
The Roman Catholic Church stands for nothing else politically except severe
dictatorship, with supreme power vested in the Pope.
Now, 230 years after the founding of America, a Republican, "christian"
President is set to complete the gradual plan to set in place a Catholic majority
on the United States Supreme Court. Dr. Douglas D. Stauffer speaks to this
issue next. You can see how the sensitivity toward a position on Abortion
has set genuine Christians up to be deceived and deluded.
"The last two men recommended by President Bush for the Supreme Court
have been Catholics, nominated, in part, for their perceived position on Roe
v. Wade ... Among conservatives who are disregarding the religious affiliations
of the Supreme Court justices, a nominee's perceived position on Roe v. Wade
seems to be the key issue in supporting Alito's nomination. Assuming his confirmation,
Catholics will comprise 56% of the Court-a simple majority on every issue."
Now, Dr. Stauffer lists the current membership of the US Supreme Court, with
their religious affiliation:
* Catholic-Chief Justice John Roberts
* Jewish-Justice Stephen G. Breyer
* Jewish-Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
* Catholic-Justice Anthony M. Kennedy
* Catholic-Justice Antonin Scalia
* Episcopalian-Justice David H. Souter
* Protestant-Justice John Paul Stevens
* Catholic-Justice Clarence Thomas
* Catholic-Justice-elect Samuel Alito
"... everyone knows that it is nearly impossible to predict how a justice
will vote. Generally, justices, once on the court have tended to unpredictably
lean to the left. The potential for damage by this court's leaning left or
right is quite alarming. The Court will be controlled by those belonging to
a religion that has notoriously usurped the rights of the people in order
to establish a church-state religion influenced or controlled by Rome."
(Ibid.)
Not only is a potential Catholic majority on the Supreme Court a potential
political disaster, but it very well might be a disaster on moral grounds,
as well. Dr. Stauffer speaks to the reality that the current Pope is implicated
in a molestation of a child -- a pedophile, in other words -- and the Bush
Administration is protecting him. Listen carefully:
"Our government's present support of the Catholic church is shown in
the following shameful and frightening example. In a recent lawsuit, Plaintiffs
claimed that a Columbian-born seminarian on assignment to Houston's St. Francis
de Sales molested them. Juan Carlos Patino-Arango allegedly molested the three
boys during counseling sessions in the 1990s. He has been indicted in a criminal
case and is a fugitive from justice. The story would be hardly newsworthy
since it resembles the news reports in almost every diocese in America. However,
the current pope has been served with papers named as a defendant in the case.
An issue in the lawsuit cites a May 18, 2001, letter from then-Cardinal Ratzinger,
written in Latin to bishops around the world, explaining that 'grave' crimes
such as sexual abuse of minors would be handled by the congregation (that
is, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith) and that the proceedings
of special church tribunals handling the cases were also subject to 'pontifical
secret'. In other words, these cases were to be decided in Rome by the Vatican
in secret and not within jurisdictional boundaries of the various countries,
including the U.S."
"The U.S. government told a Texas court that Pope Benedict XVI should
be given immunity from the lawsuit which accuses him of conspiring to cover
up the sexual molestation of the three boys by the seminarian. The assistant
U.S. Attorney General Peter Keisler says that the pope enjoys immunity as
the head of state-the Vatican. Hopefully, everyone knows who Keisler's boss
is. Wikipedia online encyclopedia describes Keisler's boss, Alberto Gonzales,
as follows: 'Despite keeping a low profile about his religious affiliation,
Gonzales has described himself as a Catholic'."
"The boys' lawsuit will most likely fail because of established precedent
and the fact that the United States has maintained diplomatic relations with
the Vatican since 1984. The Catholic church has always been exempt from the
interpretation of the 1st Amendment establishment clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Rome is the only religious institution that has embassies and ambassadors
in Washington. The United States has the same in Rome. According to Article
48 of the Apostolic Constitution on the Roman Curia, promulgated by Pope John
Paul II on June 28, 1988: 'the duty proper to the Congregation for the Doctrine
of the Faith is to promote and safeguard the doctrine on the faith and morals
throughout the Catholic world'. The statement sounds harmless until one realizes
that this organization was secretly policing the pedophiles within the Catholic
church (and doing a poor job of it, as many known molesters were left at their
posts or transferred from diocese to diocese)."
You should also be alarmed at one other historical fact about this "Congregation
for the Doctrine of the Faith": its historical name is the "Office
of the Inquisition", which killed an estimated 100 million people from
600 AD - 1850 AD (circa). When Pope John Paul II reinstated this "Office
of the Inquisition", giving it the more innocent name, "Congregation
for the Doctrine of the Faith", I believed that was one major sign that
the End of the Age is close, for it is the False Religious Prophet (Pope)
who is prophesied to force all people worldwide to take the "Mark of
the Beast" or suffer beheading. Pope John Paul II reinstated this horrific
office because the time was at hand to use it again, to flood the world with
the blood of genuine saints of Jesus Christ.
Whom did John Paul II name as head of this horrible institution? Cardinal
Ratzinger, now known as Pope Benedict!
Given the fact that the Illuminati has historically suffered greatly at the
hands of the Roman Catholic Inquisition, and that our Illuminist Founding
Father Freemasons hated the Vatican greatly, why do we now see the spectacle
that President Bush is about to name a Catholic judge which will provide a
Catholic majority on the Supreme Court? The answer may surprise you. There
are two basic reasons President Bush is letting "bygones be bygones"
in establishing a Catholic Court majority.
1) As we prove in our video, "Catholicism: Whited Sepulcher
Christianity" -- VHS
- DVD
- , the Illuminati has controlled the Papacy since Pope Paul VI.
2) The Illuminati decided, in early 1991, that the top religious leader of
the New World Order Religion would be the Pope, whomever he was at the time.
(NEWS1052)
Perhaps the time has now come to further the power of the Roman Catholic
Church, now that the world is spinning quickly to the appearance of Antichrist.
Since Roman Catholic authorities showed absolutely no mercy to any of their
political and/or religious victims for the 1,200 years of the Inquisition,
is it too much to think that the Illuminati might want a five-justice majority
on the Supreme Court during the final stretch of our nation's existence?
Behold A Pale Horse
V. Even though much has been made of Rumsfeld's
decision to only commit 135,000 American soldiers to the Iraqi invasion rather
than the 360,000 the Pentagon said they needed, few people realize that the
number of private contractors fighting alongside our troops is fully 100,000
men. This brings the number of soldiers committed to this
war to 235,000, a figure which is closer to the original Pentagon figure --
and we still have not gained victory!
NEWS BRIEF: "US
lawsuit could dent $150 billion annual global war-contractor boom: Companies
field 100,000 men who fight along-side regular soldiers", New
Zealand Herald, 23.12.05
" WASHINGTON - An unprecedented lawsuit stemming from the gruesome killing
of four American civilians in Iraq is slowly making its way through the US
legal system, closely watched by companies estimated to field up to 100,000
contractors alongside the US military. Lawyers and military experts say the
case highlights legal gray zones, a lack of regulation and little oversight
of a booming global industry believed to bring in more than $150 billion annually.
Civilian military contractors now perform scores of functions once restricted
to regular troops, and a trend toward 'privatizing war' has been accelerating
steadily."
"The suit was brought by the families of four civilian contractors shot
last year by Iraqi insurgents, who burned their bodies and hung the charred
remains from a bridge across the Euphrates river in the city of Falluja. The
four .... worked for Blackwater Security Consulting LLC, one of the companies
fielding armed civilians in Iraq under contract with the Pentagon. All four
had military experience and signed contracts assuming all risks and waiving
their right to sue. The suit against Blackwater says the company broke explicit
terms of its contract with the men by sending them to escort a food convoy
in unarmored cars, without heavy machine guns, proper briefings, advance notice
or pre-mission reconnaissance, in teams that were understaffed and lacked
even a map."
The figure -- 100,000 contractors -- was mentioned once more in this article.
"Addicott, a retired Special Forces officer, estimates that the number
of civilian contractors in Iraq surpassed 100,000 this year. 'That takes into
account not only people specifically hired to provide armed security, but
also those in transportation, construction, food services, housing, laundry
etc. Americans and non-Americans'. Other experts agree with that estimate'."
(Ibid.)
In the first section, we read that "Civilian military contractors now
perform scores of functions once restricted to regular troops, and a trend
toward 'privatizing war' has been accelerating steadily."
Indeed, the number of civilian contractors has been jumping skyward in the
past year. Quoting from a Cutting Edge Newsletter,
December 25, 2004, Paragraph VI, we read:
"The numbers of private contractors in Iraq have been estimated between
15,000 - 20,000 men, almost all of whom are former military special forces.
As Rumsfeld deliberately discredited original Pentagon estimates of 360,000
men -- sending in only 140,000 -- these highly specialized, well-trained and
well-armed fighters were deemed to be the answer for our lack of regular forces
soldiers."
These private military contractors are all former soldiers, most of them
from elite western forces throughout the world. Even as the Pentagon was scaling
back requests for more troops, they were bringing in tens of thousands of
these former, well-trained military contractors. And, the Iraqis hated them
greatly, as the story, above, illustrates quite well. Insurgents "burned
their bodies and hung the charred remains from a bridge across the Euphrates
river in the city of Falluja".
Why would insurgents hate these men so much? In large part, we believe it
is because civilian contractors can be more brutal and abrupt in their methods,
since they do not report to a higher command structure.
When Americans finally leave Iraq, will these hihgly trained and heavily
armed civilian contractors protect their retreating flanks?

VI. Cutting Edge reported some weeks ago that
the debate over withdrawing American troops from Iraq had suddenly shifted
very subtly: rather than debating whether troops should be withdrawn,
both sides of the issue abruptly began to argue over the timing and
the circumstances. This past week, President Bush
is reported to have approved the first real cuts.
NEWS BRIEF: "Rumsfeld:
Bush OKs cutting number of Iraq troops",
"BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- President Bush has authorized a reduction in
U.S. combat troops in Iraq, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said Friday,
talking before troops at Camp Falluja, Iraq. 'At the recommendation of our
military commanders and in consultation with our coalition partners and with
the Iraqi government, President Bush has authorized an adjustment in U.S.
combat brigades in Iraq from 17 to 15' .... About 3,500 soldiers are in each
brigade ... The adjustments will reduce forces in Iraq below the base-line
level of 138,000 -- which has provided the guideline for most of the year
-- by spring 2006."
British Prime Minister Tony Blair seemed caught up in the withdrawal fever.
NEWS BRIEF: "Blair: troops could begin Iraq pullout within six months",
The Guardian (London), 23 December 2005
"Tony Blair indicated yesterday that a phased withdrawal of British
troops from Iraq could begin within six months in the first official confirmation
of an exit plan. Speaking during a lightning visit to Basra, his fourth in
the past 12 months, Mr Blair held out the prospect of a pullout beginning
in the first half of 2006. Mr Blair refused to divulge a specific timetable,
but he sounded an optimistic note and gave the clearest signal yet of British
military intentions. Mr Blair insisted the political and security situation
in Iraq was completely different from that of a year ago.
" 'It is our strategy to draw down forces and we don't want to leave
people here longer than we need to. The whole process is to build up the Iraqi
capability in the armed forces and police so we can draw down our own forces.
The political aspect can only be buttressed by a strong security aspect increasingly
taken over by the Iraqis themselves'."
Now, this article tells us what we knew for a very long time, even though
official circles have been vehemently denying it. There IS a specific plan
for withdrawal.
"Mr Blair's comments followed hour-long talks with Zalmay Khlalzid,
the US ambassador, and General Commander George Casey, the overall commander
of forces in the country, on the political and military aftermath of the elections.
A senior US military source in Iraq told the Guardian: 'There is a plan in
place'. He said the commanding officer in all 18 Iraqi provinces would have
a series of issues to consider, including: the capability of Iraqi forces;
level of insurgency; trustworthiness of police force; and degree of ethnic
and sectarian violence. Only when all the boxes had been ticked would a province
be considered ready for handover to the Iraqi forces and withdrawal by the
US and British troops."
Everyone now agrees: The time for Coalition Forces to leave Iraq has come.
The only questions are: 1) How fast; 2) Under what conditions; 3) What kind
of fig leaf do we really need to justify our exit? 4) Will we withdraw under
fire?

Russia continued to harden her stance against any Western intervention in
the Middle East, as she affirmed her support for Syria if she is attacked.
NEWS BRIEF: "Russia
Will Take Syria's Side If War With US Erupts", RIAN News,
20/ 12/ 2005
"MOSCOW, December 20 (RIA Novosti) - Russia will take Syria's side if
charges against Syrian officials with involvement in the assassination of
former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri cause a conflict between the United
States and Syria, two Russian parliamentary members said Tuesday.
" 'If Russia is to choose between its two strategic allies, it will
undoubtedly take Syria's side', said Shamil Sultanov, a coordinator of an
inter-faction association, Russia and the Islamic World: A Strategic Dialogue.
Nikolai Leonov, a member of parliament's security committee, who had recently
visited Syria along with Sultanov and other MPs, said it was primarily beneficial
for the U.S. to accuse Syria of murdering Hariri. 'Indeed, Syria is an excellent
oil corridor with access to deep-water Mediterranean ports. Besides, this
is a good pretext to distract the world community's attention from the events
in Iraq', the MP said."
Then, one of the Russian M.P.'s dropped a bombshell.
"Leonov said earlier that he was concerned that Syria could face the
Iraqi scenario."
Of course, this last quote means that Syria might face an American invasion.
However, that invasion had better come quickly, before Coalition Forces are
withdrawn, or the United States would lose its launching ground for the invasion.
Since this is reality, it means that, if President Bush is going to invade
Syria, he needs to do so quickly, before he withdraws the very troops from
Iraq he would need to invade Syria. Furthermore, American troops are currently
only within a few miles of the border, so now is the time to attack.
Since Russian President Putin is bragging that he is Islam's Protector, has
he equipped Syria with the defenses needed to repel an American attack?
After examining this article, you might just conclude that Russia's Putin
has just checkmated America's Bush. You might also conclude that, perhaps,
Russia is beginning to move into the Middle East in just the manner necessary
for her to one day march against Israel in fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39. Let
us now go back nearly one year ago to see how Russia was aggressively upgrading
the defense systems for both Iran and Syria. Undoubtedly, these defensive
upgrades are now in place.
NEWS BRIEF: "Syrian Missile Sale Slots into Secret Russian Air Defense
System for Iran", DEBKAfile Exclusive Military Report, January 24, 2005
"Russian president Vladimir Putin and Syrian president Bashar Assad,
who arrived in Moscow Monday, January 24, will sign a $70 million deal for
the sale of 20 SA-18 Igla-S batteries mounted on Armored Personnel Carriers.
One of the most effective missiles against low-flying aircraft on the market,
the SA-18 is manufactured at the Russian KBM factory near Moscow ... The Igla-S
is also effective against small targets like reconnaissance drones, helicopters
and cruise missiles. Missile experts report that when fired against fighter
craft an Igla-S has the effectiveness of two missiles fired in a single round
– or five missiles when launched against a cruise missile."
An earlier DEBKAfile report on this issue stated that this anti-aircraft
and ant-missile system was the same system protecting Moscow right now! Therefore,
we can see how very serious Putin was when he originally warned America on
April 12, 2003, not to attack either Syria or Iran. Before he stepped to the
podium, Putin and his military advisers almost certainly had conceived this
air defense system which could protect the Middle East from Iran to Syria
from the enormous threat of Israeli and/or American air power.
Now, let us go back to DEBKAfile to learn more of this air defense system:
"Moscow’s objective is partly to secure its investment in Iran’s
nuclear center at Bushehr on the Persian Gulf against the fate of the Saddam
Hussein’s French-built Tamuz nuclear center which the Israeli air force
bombed out of existence 24 years ago ... Russian experts from the Raduga OKB
engineering group in Dubna near Moscow had just completed the installation
of two advanced radar systems around the Bushehr nuclear reactor on the Persian
Gulf. These improved mobile 36D6 systems, Western code named 'Tin Shield',
were custom-made to upgrade the air defense radar protecting Iran’s
key nuclear facilities from American or Israeli aerial, missile or cruise
missile attack." (Ibid.)
Now, let us return to this featured article to gain insight as to possible
Russian protection against Syria:
"Already, the Russian military umbrella over Iran is emitting diplomatic
signals ... On January 12, the day Russian radar was finally installed at
Bushehr and Isfahan, the Kremlin leaked word of a large-scale arms deal afoot
with Syria ... What really worries Washington and Jerusalem is the possibility
of Assad and Putin putting their heads together on the same 36D6 radar system
Moscow has supplied Iran. Our military sources describe the Tin Shield 36D6
as a mobile radar system designed to detect air targets and perform friend-or-foe
identification. It is highly effective in detecting low, medium and high altitude
targets moving at almost any speed, including winged missiles and American
or Israeli cruise missiles. It is capable of providing the target and bearing
of active jamming, as well as integrated computer-aided systems of control
and guidance of anti-aircraft missile complexes. Tin Shield can operate independently
as an observation and air detection post, as part of computer-aided control
systems or as an element in an anti-air guided missile complex, where it carries
out reconnaissance and targeting. If Syria gets this sophisticated system,
a Russian-coordinated Iranian-Syrian-Lebanese radar barrier will rise with
three serious consequences that go beyond the balance of strength in the Middle
East..." (Ibid.)
Did you catch the pertinent geo-political sentence in this quote? Remember,
this quote is nearly one year old.
"If Syria gets this sophisticated system, a Russian-coordinated Iranian-Syrian-Lebanese
radar barrier will rise with three serious consequences that go beyond the
balance of strength in the Middle East..." (Ibid.)
If America does attack Syria, she is likely to discover she is facing Russian
Scalar
and perhaps even Quantum Potential weapons. Now that would be a problem!

News from medical experts appeared again this week, warning that the Tamiflu
vaccine is not effective!
Finally, medical authorities are beginning to speak up, warning that the
heavily-promoted Tamiflu vaccine is no good.
NEWS BRIEF: "H5N1
Bird Flu is `resisting' Tamiflu", Taipei Times, Dec 23,
2005
"Indonesia's bird flu death toll rose to 11 yesterday amid worrying
new evidence that the virus may be developing resistance to Tamiflu, the only
drug known to be effective against it. Test results from a World Health Organization
(WHO)-affiliated laboratory in Hong Kong showed that a 39-year-old Indonesian
man and an eight-year-old boy were the country's latest victims of the H5N1
strain of the virus ... Meanwhile, in Vietnam, bird flu had become resistant
to Tamiflu in two fatal cases, a doctor said. Menno de Jong, from the Institute
of Tropical Diseases in Ho Chi Minh City, said Tamiflu was ineffective in
fighting the virus in two girls who died. 'Our two patients became resistant
despite a full dose of treatment. Both died and in one patient there are some
suggestions that the therapeutic failure and ultimately her death may have
been caused by the development of resistance', he said."
Officials like Defense Secretary Rumsfeld who own the California company
who owns the global patent on Tamiflu must be very upset with this revelation,
for it just might short-circuit their plans to get even more filthy rich from
government purchases of the risky, dangerous, and now ineffective vaccine!
NEWS BRIEF: "Expert
not surprised at Tamiflu resistance", New Zealand Herald,
23.12.05
"Professor Arnold Monto, from the University of Michigan, said it was
expected that the bird flu virus H5N1 would evolve into resistant forms. The
deaths were reported this week in the New England Journal of Medicine. But
Prof Monto said the fact the two Vietnamese patients had developed the resistant
strain may not have in itself caused their deaths. 'I think that really has
very little to do with the outcome, namely that both of them died, especially
since one of them was actually treated six days into the illness', Prof Monto
told National Radio.
" 'The virus has developed resistance. We knew that this was going to
happen'.'
Remember, medical science has never beaten a virus yet, because they mutate
so rapidly. By the time a vaccine is developed which would kill a virus, that
virus has mutated so it is not affected by the vaccine. Since viruses are
not beatable, it is no wonder that, once scientists cracked the genetic code,
certain of them began to develop diseases that will ultimately fulfill the
plagues of the Book of Revelation -- and these deliberately created diseases
were viruses.
Do not take a flu vaccine: they are going to be loaded with risky and perhaps,
even deadly materials. Do not be like the "sheeple" who are properly
scared by government propaganda and who rush down to take the vaccine which
just might kill them.

The moral collapse we have been observing in Western society for a number
of decades is now in full bloom, as these articles attest.
NEWS BRIEF: "Canadians
can have group sex in "swingers" clubs: Top Court rules",
Reuters News, December 21, 2005
"OTTAWA (Reuters) - Group sex between consenting adults is neither prostitution
nor a threat to society, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled on Wednesday, dismissing
arguments that the sometimes raucous activities of so-called "swingers"
clubs were dangerous. in a ruling that radically changes the way Canadian
courts determine what poses a threat to the population, the court threw out
the conviction of a Montreal man who ran a club where members could have group
sex in a private room behind locked doors.
"Consensual conduct behind code-locked doors can hardly be supposed
to jeopardize a society as vigorous and tolerant as Canadian society,"
said the opinion of the seven-to-two majority, written by Chief Justice Beverley
McLachlin.
The decision does not affect existing laws against prostitution because no
money changed hands between the adults having sex. In indecency cases, Canadian
courts have traditionally probed whether the acts in question "breached
the rules of conduct necessary for the proper functioning of society".
The Supreme Court ruled that from now on, judges should pay more attention
to whether society would be harmed.
The judges said that just because most Canadians might disapprove of swingers'
clubs, this did not necessarily mean the establishments were socially dangerous.
"Attitudes in themselves are not crimes, however deviant they may be
or disgusting they may appear," the judges said, noting that no one had
been pressured to have sex or had paid for sex in either of the cases'."
This kind of behavior occurred in Sodom and Gomorrah, in both homosexual
and heterosexual instances. Now, the moral pendulum has swung full-circle.
What did Jesus foretell?
"Likewise also as it was in the days
of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they
builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone
from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when
the Son of man is revealed." (Luke 17:28-30)
Western society is becoming like Sodom!
NEWS BRIEF: "'Emotional'
affair as Elton and David finally say 'I do' -- Sir Elton John marries
his long-term boyfriend, David Furnish", By Oliver Duff
Published: 22 December 2005
"Contrary to the popular joke ahead of the big day - and to the disappointment
of many of the hundreds of people gathered outside - Sir Elton John did not
choose to marry his long-term boyfriend David Furnish wearing a white wedding
dress or even a flamboyantly coloured explosion of lace ruffles. Instead,
the duo said "I do" at Windsor's Guildhall wearing sober black dress
suits. Sir Elton, 58, and the Canadian film-maker, 43, were among 700 gay
couples to join in civil partnerships yesterday, the first day that same-sex
unions became legal in England and Wales."
"When the grooms arrived, just before 11am, the crowd roared with excitement
... After signing the register to seal their civil partnership, the men exchanged
vows in a 20-minute service described by Ms Taylor-Wood as "beautiful"
and "very emotional".
"Everyone clapped and, of course, they kissed at the end," added
Mr Jopling. "It was just like any other couple getting married."
Of course, this has long been the goal of the gay - lesbian community: have
people in society view homosexual marriage as "just like any other couple
getting married."
Now, we get down to the root cause of this moral collapse. Americans
have rejected Jesus.
NEWS BRIEF: "Military
chaplains told to shy from Jesus: Cannot pray in Jesus' Name or they could
be fired", The Washington Times, december 21, 2005
"To pray -- or not to pray -- in Jesus' name is the question plaguing
an increasing number of U.S. military chaplains, one of whom began a multiday
hunger strike outside the White House yesterday. 'I am a Navy chaplain being
fired because I pray in Jesus' name', said Navy Lt. Gordon Klingenschmitt,
who will be holding 6 p.m. prayer vigils daily in Lafayette Park.
The hunger strike is intended to persuade President Bush to issue an executive
order allowing military chaplains to pray according to their individual faith
traditions. The American Center for Law and Justice has gathered 173,000 signatures
on a petition seeking an executive order.
"Seventy-three members of Congress have joined the request, saying in
an Oct. 25 letter to the president, 'In all branches of the military, it is
becoming increasingly difficult for Christian chaplains to use the name of
Jesus when praying' ... About 80 percent of U.S. troops are Christian, the
legislators wrote, adding that military "censorship" of chaplains'
prayers disenfranchises "hundreds of thousands of Christian soldiers
in the military who look to their chaplains for comfort, inspiration and support."
"Official military policy allows any sort of prayer, but Lt. Klingenschmitt
says that in reality, evangelical Protestant prayers are censored. He cites
his training at the Navy Chaplains School in Newport, R.I., where "they
have clipboards and evaluators who evaluate your prayers, and they praise
you if you pray just to God," he said. "But if you pray in Jesus'
name, they counsel you."
This situation screams for a remedy from the 80% of the Christian soldiers
in America's army. "Christian" President Bush can ride to the rescue
of Christian soldiers with his Executive Orders, in much the same fashion
as President Clinton rode to the rescue of gay soldiers the second day of
his Administration, when he issued an Executive Order called "Don't Tell,
Don't Ask". This Executive Order made it very difficult for the American
armed forces to dismiss soldiers because they were gay.
President Bush now has the opportunity to issue a similar Executive Order
- for his Christian constituency. We can't wait, for we can finally add a
genuine "Good Fruit" to our table of "President
Bush's Evil vs Good Fruits".
