BP SPILL - THE POSSIBE METHANE TIMEBOMB AND TSUNAMI - PART1/2

2010-07-03T05:08:00.000-04:00

Richard C. Hoagland demands the "mud log data" from BP's proprietary storehouse of information to ascertain the true condition of the disaster in the Gulf of Mexico . . . and why not? Why is the United States government allowing a private corporation to run an operation which threatens to destroy so much life on the planet, an operation which BP created in the first place?

Goldman Sachs sold $250 million of BP stock before spill

2010-07-01T18:13:00.001-04:00

The brokerage firm that's faced the most scrutiny from regulators in the past year over the shorting of mortgage related securities seems to have had good timing when it came to something else: the stock of British oil giant BP.

According to regulatory filings, RawStory.com has found that Goldman Sachs sold 4,680,822 shares of BP in the first quarter of 2010. Goldman's sales were the largest of any firm during that time. Goldman would have pocketed slightly more than $266 million if their holdings were sold at the average price of BP's stock during the quarter.

Here's the First Apparently Serious "False Flag" Report About the BP Oil Spill I've Watched

2010-07-01T18:08:00.004-04:00

Synopsis: 1. The "oil spill" is not true. They purposefully drilled into the side of an asphalt volcano and caused the normal leak of tar which is eaten by existing bacteria. The harmful dispersal agent which they are needlessly spraying into the Gulf of Mexico is designed to cull the population of predominantly poor African-Americans and the elderly who are on welfare or social security, and thereby greatly reducing the financial load on the government. The banks will get all the beachfront land as more people die or flee; remember Katrina? This is a NWO planned genocide on a massive scale and anyone in the coast area should vacate now!

What we are talking about here is the the evolution of consciousness and the compression of time, or time speeding up, as predicted by the Mayan civilization and their calendars. There is so much talk of gloom and doom, but in reality, as the shamanic cultures knew, we are in a period of increasing lucidity, of evolving higher levels of consciousness, and on the verge of a new dawning of peace, love and understanding. That, indeed, would shake the very ground beneath our feet. No more deception, no more greed, no more hate, no more war, universal compassion and love, sharing . . .

New Age Infiltration of the Truth Movement

New Age Infiltration of the truth movement: by keith Truth from New World Exposure on Vimeo.

This a good place to start thinking about rebuttal to the plethora of videos on this blog by the likes of Michael Tsarion, Jordan Maxwell and Peter Joseph (Zeitgeist). It's a particularly knotty problem, truth seeking. While one can find wisdom almost anywhere -- just as a pea plant seed will sprout in good soil and also in dung -- it is most tedious to have to wade through the muck and mire to find that which is true from that which is deception. I recognize that I have praised the above mentioned individuals for their work in alternative history. But watching this video and some others by Chris White (whose work can be found by tracing the link attached to the video), I've begun to have second thoughts. The gist of the message is that these very people who are exposing the New World Order may actually be aiding and abetting its inauguration. More food for thought from this humble correspondent!

Hidden World History by Al Fry

2009-10-25T05:49:00.002-04:00

This unusual documentary is one you won't find elsewhere, as it was privately produced and distributed by Al Fry the late 70's or early 80's. He labored to try and get the word out about the dangers of the global elites, but then as now the public was not very interested in the truth. Some of the information in this documentary you have probably heard of by now from other sources, but Al's style and added metaphysical insights deliver an original presentation unique in the field of political conspiracy research. Archive a copy if this one interests you, as it's original distribution was *very* limited and may not show up elsewhere again. Topics include, global banking cartels, elites, war, ancient history, manipulation of the population, human origins, ethics, metaphysics, alien intelligence, Nazism, US Politics, Communism, Secret Societies, Earth changes and too much more to list.

Free Masons War Against Islam

2009-10-24T04:30:00.004-04:00

This is really one of the most comprehensive six part documentaries I've watched which examines the link between the ancient Free Masonic order and the state of the world today. Several key elements are revealed, among which are:

1. That America was established and is run today by Free Masons.

2. That a new world order is their global agenda.

3. That total control of the individual is their goal.

4. That fear is their tool.

5. That Islam is their greatest enemy.

Among the topics discussed in the film are several which my personal research has also uncovered:

A fake alien invasion is imminent, to be used by the global elite to galvanize the world's population to submit to a one world government.

The United Nations is the new global government in direct violation of the Constitution of the United States and The Geneva Convention.

The AIDS virus was manufactured in a laboratory and targeted Africa and America by placing it in vaccines -- small pox vaccines in Africa and Hepatitis vaccines in America.

The drug problem in America is a direct result of the government bringing in the substances and enslaving or destroying the targeted populations thereby.

The personal ID Card and personal embedded under the skin microchip are on the horizon -- no, they're already here.

Most forms of mass media are nothing more than the means of propaganda used by the global elite to brainwash us.

Islam is NOT our enemy -- Free Masons are. Watch this video and learn why!!!

Joseph and Rose Rondone

2009-09-25T13:57:00.005-04:00

This is an old hand colored photograph of my grandfather Joseph and my grandmother Rose (nee Filipi) taken sometime in the early 20th Century in Santa Cristina Gela, Sicily. I haven't seen this photograph in over thirty years, and it's the only photograph I have ever seen of them. Since my dad, Anthony Rondone, was born in 1887 and came to America when he was thirteen in 1900, my grandparents on his side were long dead before I came around. I came across this framed photograph in my dad's house in 1975 behind a closet door, and it was so encrusted with dust that it was impossible to tell what it was. I took it down and completely cleaned it up, then asked my dad who these people were. He was shocked to see the photograph, it being long forgotten and lost, and with tears in his eyes, told me, "That's my mom and dad!" He had never returned to Sicily, and my grandparents never made it out of Sicily either, so Anthony hadn't seen his parents at that point in over seventy years!

Thanks to Jay Rondone and Angela Ollmann for sending me a copy of the photograph

98% of European countries have outlawed the fluoridation of public water supplies. Clinical research studies have shown that fluoride causes ADD and a host of other diseases even in small doses, while claims that it aids in preventing cavities in teeth are unsupported. Fluoride, an industrial byproduct of the manufacturing of aluminum, was first used by the Nazis during World War Two in concentration camps to promote docility and servility among prisoners. After it's introduction into the prisoners' water supply, the Germans were able to cut back on the number of guards it required to watch the prisoners by 75%! D'ONT DRINK THE WATER!!!

GOOGLE SETTLEMENT STEALS RIGHTS AND REWARDS APPROPRIATION

2009-09-08T19:33:00.004-04:00

I received another letter from the Google Book Search Settlement Administrator this week informing me that my rights will be affected by the proposed settlement of the class action suit against Google for copyright infringement by scanning books and other publications. I have been a de facto part of the class action lawsuit because I am the author of numerous books, chapters, and other publications affected by Google’s decisions to scan and sell copies of materials still protected by copyright.

The settlement has been supported by the Association of American Publishers—which represents major publishers—because it protects their interests, but it is opposed by the National Writers Union and the American Society of Journalists and Authors because it seriously degrades the rights and interests of those who actually write the content. The split between publishers and authors is not surprising because anyone who has observed the uneasy relationships between musicians, authors, scriptwriters and recording, publishing, and production companies immediate recognizes they have very different and competing interests.

Under the proposed settlement, the court will take away portions of my copyrights that were created under legislation and protected by international treaties and it will give them to Google. The only way for me to protect my rights is to take deliberate affirmative action to opt out of the settlement and to seek to enforce my rights against Google individually—not a great option since its capacity to hire lawyers and stretch out litigation is far higher than mine.

The process and effects of the settlement are stunning and will dramatically alter authors’ rights. For nearly a hundred and fifty years copyright law has recognized that copyrights belong solely to the author (or persons to which the authors sell them) and that commercial uses of copyright material can only be made through negotiating terms of use and payment with the copyright owners.

The Google settlement will essentially rewrite copyright law by allowing the company to use the material without permission, without negotiating how the material will be used, and without negotiating compensation and payment provisions. It is particularly offensive because the court will be saying the government doesn’t have to protect authors’ rights, but authors’ have to protect their own rights. This is a significantly different approach from that which prosecutors and courts have taken in the cases of music, game, and software file sharers who have violated copyright on the Internet.

The settlement disassembles the basics of copyright law without legislative consideration and essentially forces the results on rights holders. Its effects are far reaching. Not only does the settlement apply to U.S. authors, but it is binding to authors worldwide even if they are not aware their rights are affected by the suit.

The settlement turns copyright upside down. Instead of protecting authors’ rights, the proposed settlement asks the court to reallocate the economic and moral rights to authors’ work, to give Google rights to use their material, and to determine the compensation authors must accept. To make matters worse, the effect of the settlement essentially gives Google a monopoly over the scanned publications and does require the company to make them available to other online services that might offer them at different prices or with different compensation for authors.

The proposed settlement is theft—pure and simple—and its proponents want to ravage and rewrite authors rights so that Google's acts will no longer be defined as larceny. The result will reward Google for illegally appropriating material, hardly a message that society should want to send to thiefs.

If the court accepts the settlement, authors will be victimized for the sake a $150 billion Internet company and the world’s biggest publishers. Where is the equity and the justice?

Michael Tsarion -- The Origins of Evil

2009-09-07T01:17:00.002-04:00

Those of you not familiar with Michael Tsarion can find ample amounts of his video work on YouTube and Google Video. He is the author of numerous books and DVDs and is, along with Jordan Maxwell and William Cooper, one of the most controversial speakers in the field of speculation and alternative history. His recent video "Architects of Control" is also highly recommended.

This extraordinary 13 part lecture focuses on one of the most important questions we as inhabitants of this planet should be asking ourselves: Why is there evil in the world, and what can we do about it? Along the way, Mr. Tsarion will touch upon such diverse topics is the Elizabethan magician Dr. John Dee, genetic manipulation of humans by alien races, two humanoid creations (instead of just one, as the book of Genesis in the Bible relates), the New World Order, freedom versus slavery and much more. So sit back and spend an hour and a half with one of the most original thinkers on the planet!

Anyone who has spent time viewing, verifying and thinking about the startling information made available in the groundbreaking Internet documentary movie "Zeitgeist -- The Final Cut" will be thrilled by this second full length sequel which examines in greater detail the role The Federal Reserve Bank, the World Bank and our government plays in enslaving the citizens of this country and the world with unpayable debt, while raping the earth's natural resources and polluting the environment for the profit of a very few.

We have at our disposal the technological means necessary to eradicate disease, hunger and poverty worldwide in a sustainable, holistic, eco friendly manner, but we will not be able to accomplish this until we throw off the shackles of our current outmoded and corrupt political, social and religious status quo paradigms and institute new sustainable agendas for global survival. As it is, our fake monetary system, the empire building corporations and their political puppets continue to cause suffering, inequity and misery for the sake of profit over people.

Please watch this informative video and check the facts for yourself -- then begin acting with a new consciousness -- and pass it on!!!

2008-11-12T20:57:00.017-05:00

A Review of Tono Rondone's Novel, Pop Goes the Weasel

by Saab Lofton 2008

"Even the wretched and despised have their allotted place [in a utopian society]. Freed from all conflict we have time now to explore new concepts, new frontiers, charting the space inside our minds as we once did the outer void, with pioneers drawn from the hopelessly addicted; psychonauts prepared to risk their sanity in chemical reconnaissance of new, interior continents. We call them 'spacemen.' Every child's ambition is to be one when they're grown."

-- Alan Moore, Miracleman #16

Clearly, author Tono Rondone is a psychonaut of the first order and Rondone's first novel, Pop Goes the Weasel, reflects that. The protagonist of Book I is Dante Tutticosa, a slightly balding, self-depreciating everyman who's bi-polar ("The World is Wonderful and The World Sucks. He oscillated between these two opinions more than a Mississippi window fan, sometimes several times per hour.") and trapped in a horrid day job as "a fortune cookie fortune inserter" for a business humorously called The Hong Kee Cookie Company of all things. Rondone proves himself to be one of Alan Moore's aforementioned spacemen by putting his protagonist through paces such as the following:

"Dante would go into that studio, turn his amp up to maximum volume, and thunder away on his electric guitar, getting out all his angst and anger and frustration, because of the imperfectness of life, because he had not yet become right, because he was not yet fully himself. He understood intuitively that if you could realize exactly who you are, and maintain that realization, then you would have achieved immortality, you would become one with the eternal spirit which was already in existence before your body was created, and which will still exist, unchanging, after your body passes away."

And:

"Maybe we all walk in the same shoes as devils and angels too, Dante figured; he believed in other states of consciousness, other vibratory levels in which beings like angels and devils actually exist just as much as humans exist. In fact, they existed side by side, we passed through them and they through us constantly ... Dante figured that there were several planes of existence in reality, not just the one we know when we are alive and awake. Each one of these levels or planes manifest at a different vibratory rate, that is, the entities of each plane are vibrating at different rates, therefore, even though they occupy the same 'space,' even though, in fact, they are passing through one another continuously, they normally do not perceive each other, except when, on occasion, communications or observations occur between different planes through a rent in the fabric of consciousness, as when you see a ghost and it sees you. Witness the rings of Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy, levels of existence: demons, ghosts, human beings, angels, gods. All real, all existing at different vibratory levels. That would mean, Dante shivered a little to think of it, that there must be a heaven, and there must be a hell. Unfortunately, knowing that did not also give him knowledge of where he might end up. He therefore vowed, as best he could, to try to be as good as he could and learn to vibrate in a heavenly direction henceforth, while he still had time. How much time he had left, however, was not known to him, of course."

Verbose and convoluted (sometimes gratuitously so,) Pop Goes the Weasel is a highly metaphysical but mainly an experimental novel -- not just in terms of content (or its inclusion of poems and mini-plays) -- but the way in which its told. For instance, Rondone shifts in midstream from an omnipotent narration to a first person one -- a literary first as far as I know. And the beginning of Chapter 18 gets downright schizophrenic:

“Dante: Hey, who the hell are you? How did you get in here?
"Rondone: I'm the guy you were talking to. Or are you in the habit of talking to yourself?
"Dante: Listen, don't worry about my habits. I'm the main character in this novel, so I can pretty much do and say what I like, when I like. Don't change the subject and get outta my room, whoever you are. Anyway, I don't see as it's any of your business.
"Rondone: That's where you're dead wrong, bub. It is very much my business. In fact, you owe me plenty. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't even exist.”

Rondone doesn't just break through the proverbial fourth wall, he smashes it to bits with a wrecking ball.

It's hard to discern an actual, linear plot in Pop Goes the Weasel (other than Dante's circular exploration of San Francisco's mystic underbelly and its citizenry or his similar stint in New Orleans). Rondone provides plenty of great, elaborate description but precious little action. Just as TV's Seinfeld bills itself as "the show about nothing," the reader is expected to derive pleasure from Dante's search for truth and an endless succession of his surreal/slice-of-life observations, which makes Pop Goes the Weasel an acquired taste to say the least.

Even the author admits this on page 74 of Book I: "There is no narrative, no dialogue, no plot, no characterization. Half of the time there is no delineation between when the narrator is speaking or thinking or pontificating and when it is Dante who's doing it. The book is going nowhere."
And again on page 171 of Book II: "I don't care if none of this makes any sense; I don't care if what I’m writing now doesn't move the plot."

In keeping with Rondone's Divine Comedy theme, a character with the name Virgil is introduced in Book II -- a middle aged disgruntled misanthrope, like Dante, who stands out early on by commendably stating the following at a cafe: "I didn't want to go over to Vietnam and dump flaming, jellied gasoline on innocent women and children." However, book II is as randomly anecdotal and as devoid of anything linear as Book I -- anecdotal as in:

"Tse, Virgil's young, Asian, rapper-poet-writer-backpacker, street dwelling friend, came in and told Edgar and Virgil that he had just got mixed up in a scam whereby he and the guy he was with had ended up ripping off this blond haired gaffy girl in the Upper Haight for a sizable amount of green bud. He subsequently rolled a spliff, and they toked."

Book II does seem to center (somewhat) around a concern over Virgil's friend, Jimmy ("who went missing for weeks after "neglecting his anti depressant medicine") and his next move in life. Deciding where Virgil is to live provides Rondone with another reason to invoke the mystical:

"The first card in the Thoth Tarot deck Virgil drew on the full moon night just prior to the 13th day of January was the Death Trump, and initially it shocked him somewhat. He wanted to know if he should leave San Francisco, if he should go to Philadelphia; he had implicitly suggested the question, subliminally rather than overtly queried, and he had thrown the Tarot after his first sitting in meditation in months ... The Death Card, the 13th Trump in the Tarot deck, represents change ..."

Magic plays a starring role in both books, but only as an incidental supporting actor. Great concepts are brought up:

"Dante in the abnormal course of events began consorting with his VCR. At length, he found, quite by accident, a small red plastic button on the remote control of the device, which was cut into a strange upside down five pointed star and circled with a thin red line. No mention of the purpose or function of this button was made in the device’s operating manual, even though it was printed in several languages. Some tongues, however, must remain unwagged, he discovered. Only one line seemed to pertain to the control: Note: The function activated by the pentagram shaped button can also be accessed by entering the numerals 666 on the numeric keypad ..."

Only to be vaguely alluded to much later:

"Dante had noticed, on the corner of Haight and Cole, a bewildered looking man standing next to a building with a far off look in his eyes and holding a remote control in his hand, not unlike the remote control Dante used to covet from his enchanted VCR. There was something strangely familiar about the guy. Later Dante wondered if he had been techno journeying like Dante had done; if true, the consequences substantiated a serious setback. For if this man had a enchanted VCR and was videotape traveling, then he was in Dante's movie. That meant that Dante's life was not real, but only a movie, only an illusion, like the flickering images of a film projected against a blank screen in such rapid succession as to give the illusory impression of movement. Maybe that's why nothing ever happens here, Dante thought. Or is it that nothing ever changes? Maybe I shouldn't take this life too seriously after all."

And then this intriguing concept is dropped altogether, which leaves the sci fi fan in me longing for more. I could see a whole movie based on nothing more than that VCR.

It wouldn't take too many pages for a mainstream American reader to begin asking, where in the name of Timothy Leary is Rondone going with this? The short answer is nowhere in particular, but as the old expression goes, not all who wander are lost.

Though it tends to ramble, Pop Goes the Weasel does provide a variety of entertaining eccentric characters, such as Tagy, a lanky rock musician who's "fond of remarking to anyone within shoutshot that he did not trust anyone but his mother" and wallows in frivolous lawsuits ("For litigation was a favorite pastime of the millionaire, whom had engaged in so many legal battles in the past that he could probably past the bar examinations in at least fifteen States in the Union.") or Hapless Hadley Dunn, a bartender who produces "perverted" postcards, one of which is called Sacred Fart, Cosmic Yolk.

And then there's Edgar, "The Egg Man," More: "An idiot savant, all six foot four and 250 pounds of him. Forty something, unemployable, on permanent disability, the holder of secret esoteric knowledge on a thousand subjects."

Not to mention: "Big Isaac, the well dressed, six foot five inch black man who reportedly wears lifts and carries a polished pine wood club half his height, and has a seemingly unending supply of Tylenol #4 with codeine."

In addition, Rondone is quite the philosopher and has collected some of the best quotes I've ever read in Pop Goes the Weasel -- I compiled a short list of my favorites:

"Poverty is a very humbling experience."
"We all prostitute ourselves for money one way or another."
"What's the big deal about cloning? The Germans have been doing it for the last two hundred and fifty years!"
"Such disrespect for the most precious of births, a human birth."
"Isn't it funny how the Dalai Lama and Henry Kissinger have both been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize?"
"Anger is nothing but thwarted desire."
"He wasn't overly sensitive and easily agitated; they were just assholes!"
"If all else fails, follow your bliss."
"I need a miracle everyday."
"There are six hundred Vietnam War vets living in Golden Gate Park, and they're gonna take the Presidio."

Referred to as "an instruction manual for the obliteration of the ego ... A bible of the perverse and the pedantic, the profane and the philosophical," Pop Goes the Weasel is best read while under the influence of something harsh.

Danger of Assassination Attempt in the United States

2008-10-31T22:18:00.004-04:00

Washington, October 31 (Radio Havana Cuba)-The US media are reporting plans organized by white neo Nazis groups to assassinate Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama.

The plan, according to documents revealed recently by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms also includes the assassination of 102 African American children in the state of Mississippi.

Last August, during the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado, police reportedly arrested four members of white supremacy groups that were planning an assassination attempt during the final activity of the event.

In 1978, a novel was written by the leader of the neo nazi group National Alliance, William L. Pierce, entitled "The Turner Dairies", that narrates a fictitious uprising in the United States in which racist elements were preparing to oust the federal government and threaten with using nuclear weapons against main US cities.

The US secret service has linked this book with real criminal acts occurred in recent history, and are confirming that it served as an inspiration for Timothy McVeigh, executer of the bombing attack in Oklahoma in 1995 in which 168 people died and over 500 injured.

The number of "hate groups" that operate in the United States has increased 48 percent since 2000, according to the annual report of Southern Poverty Law Center.

New York Times journalist John Kifner denounced in 2006 the growing penetration of the US military apparatus in carrying out these racists acts, without the government authorities ever having to respond to the accusations exposed in his article which should be of concern for Obama.

Here Comes Domestic Crowd Control, Via Big Brother

2008-10-17T20:58:00.004-04:00

The Active Denial System (ADS) is a non-lethal, directed-energy weapon developed by the U.S. military.[1] It is a strong millimeter-wave transmitter used for crowd control (the "goodbye effect"[2]). Informally, the weapon is also called pain ray.[3] Raytheon is currently marketing a reduced-range version of this technology.[4] The ADS is currently being considered for deployment in the Iraq War.

The ADS works by directing electromagnetic radiation, specifically, high-frequency microwave radiation at a frequency of 95 GHz[5] (a wavelength of 3.2 mm), toward the subjects. The waves excite water molecules in the epidermis to around 130 °F (55 °C), causing an intensely painful sensation of extreme heat. While not actually burning the skin, the burning sensation is similar to that of a light bulb being pressed against the skin.[5] The focused beam can be directed at targets at a range of just under half a kilometer, or about 550 yards.[6] The device can penetrate thick clothing, although not walls.[6]

At 95 GHz, the frequency is much higher than the 2.45 GHz of a microwave oven. This frequency was chosen because, due to the stronger absorption of water at those frequencies, they penetrate the skin to a depth of less than 1/64 of an inch (0.4 mm),[7] which is where the nerve endings are located.

A spokesman for the Air Force Research Laboratory described his experience as a test subject for the system:

"For the first millisecond, it just felt like the skin was warming up. Then it got warmer and warmer and you felt like it was on fire.... As soon as you're away from that beam your skin returns to normal and there is no pain."

Electromagnetic radiation cannot pass through a conductor, so the effect can be shielded by a conductive mesh or foil which forms electromagnetic shielding around the target.

While the effects can be unpleasant, ADS has undergone extensive testing since its inception more than 12 years ago. Research into whether or not the device will cause long-term health effects has been inconclusive. Many aspects of the research are classified, making independent evaluation impossible. The beam is designed only to affect an individual for a short moment, due to safety presets and features, but these settings can be overridden by the operator.[8] According to a public release, there have been over 10,700 "shots" by ADS.[9]

WACO: The Rules of Engagement

2008-09-07T02:12:00.001-04:00

The Rules of Engagement is the first full-length documentary film to present the complete picture of the series of events outside Waco, Texas during 1993 that resulted in the shooting of 4 federal agents and the deaths of 86 men, women, and children of the Branch Davidian religious sect. Waco: The Rules of Engagement is a highly detailed examination of the interaction between David Koresh, his members, and Federal Law Enforcement. It shows how the FBI misled the public and American political leaders in order to focus overwhelming force on a group whose diversity of race, national origin, and apocalyptic religious beliefs made its members easy targets for lethal abuse of civil and human rights. Gripping and deeply thought provoking, the film provides America with something it truly needs - an opportunity to review the historical record of events at Waco. The findings raise doubts about the FBI's version of the story and their larger role in similar instances of law enforcement.

Two Airports in the Middle of Nowhere, Groom Lake, Nevada

2008-09-03T22:34:00.004-04:00

I was just cruising around Google Earth tonight and I happened to find two locations right next to one another which seemed very interesting to me, and very incongruous as well. Here were several runways and two airports, right out in the middle of nowhere at Groom Lake, Nevada. If you want to go to the site yourself, the position is 36 56' 15.26" N 116 00' 24.97" W. Just enter that info precisely into the "fly to" box and hit enter. Then zoom out and to the right to the larger dry lake to see the other "airport." Now, I gotta ask you -- what are these runways doing out in the middle of nowhere in Nevada? Well, Groom Lake is part of Area 51 folks -- you know, aliens and weird spacecraft flying around? Upon reflection, I would have been more surprised if I hadn't seen anything there.

And Now . . . The Tao

2008-08-20T22:35:00.005-04:00

Following one’s dharma, one’s way or path, following one’s true nature is the way. There is no distinction or difference between one and another, as long as all are following their individual dharma.

All problems result from one’s failure to follow one’s dharma and instead practicing another path.

I am an artist. If I had become a soldier, this would have been contrary to my dharma, my path.

You may be an industrialist, a deep sea diver, a saint or a despicable character.
But as long as you’re following your dharma, the universe isn’t thrown into disarray.
But when people begin to not follow their individual dharma, difficulties crop up.

Hilter wanted to be an artist; but instead we know what he became.

Therefore, let’s consul people after getting to know them to follow what we’ve perceived as their dharma, because we all have our own as we do our own souls but some of us don’t know what it is (which is the same as saying they don’t know it exists). I don’t think any true dharma is bad, because it is the Tao.

William Copper Killed in SWAT Raid

"...God bless my family. I love my wife & children more than life itself. Everything I do is for the future of all my children. They may not understand why I have sacrificed so much, why I am so dedicated to this work; but someday they will. I want them to know they are the most important People in my life, and how very, very much I love them..." - William Cooper

EAGER, AZ - William Cooper has been killed and an Apache County sheriff's deputy wounded in a shootout, authorities said.

William Milton Cooper, 58, of Eager, had hosted a talk show broadcast on the Worldwide Christian Radio out of Nashville, which receives it via phone from his home in St. Johns.

The deputy, whose name was being withheld by authorities, was shot twice in the head while trying to arrest Cooper, a state Department of Public Safety spokesman said today. Cooper was killed by another officer.

Several deputies were attempting to arrest Cooper, who was armed with a handgun, said Officer Steve Volden, a spokesman for the DPS, which was investigating the shooting.

He said details of the shooting would be released later today.

The deputy was in critical condition at a Phoenix hospital early today, Volden said.

Cooper was one of the most widely known Shortwave radio broadcast, "the Hour of the Time", heard worldwide and on the Internet. "William Cooper may be one of America's greatest heroes and this story may be the biggest story in the history of the world." said Mills Crenshaw, KTALK, Salt Lake City.

William Cooper was reared in an Air Force family. As a child he lived in many different countries, graduating from Yamato High School in Japan. Since he has traveled through or lived in many different foreign countries Mr. Cooper has a world view much different than most Americans.

William served with the Strategic Air Command, United States Air Force. He held a secret clearance working on B-52 bombers, KC-135 refueling aircraft, and Minuteman missiles. William received his Honorable Discharge from the United States Air Force in 1965.

William joined the United States Navy fulfilling a dream previously frustrated by chronic motion sickness. He served aboard the submarine USS Tiru (SS-416), USS Tombigbee (AOG-11), Naval Support Activity Danang RVN, Naval Security and Intelligence Camp Carter RVN, Danang Harbor Patrol RVN, Dong Ha River Security Group RVN, USS Charles Berry (DE-1035), Headquarters Commander in Chief Pacific Fleet, USS Oriskany (CVA-34).

Cooper was a member of the Office of Naval Security and Intelligence serving as a Harbor and River Patrol Boat Captain at Danang and the Dong Ha River Security Group, Cua Viet, Republic of Vietnam. William Cooper was awarded several medals for his leadership and heroism during combat including two with "V" for Valor.

He served on the Intelligence Briefing Team for the Commander In Chief of the Pacific Fleet. William was the Petty Officer of the Watch and designated KL-47 SPECAT operator in the CINCPACFLT Command Center at Makalapa Hawaii. There he held a Top Secret, Q, SI, security clearance.

William Cooper achieved the rank of First Class Petty Officer, QM1, E- 6 after only 8 years of Naval service, a difficult task in any branch of the United States military. William Cooper received an Honorable Discharge from the United States Navy on December 11, 1975.

William attended Long Beach City College where he picked up an Associate of Science Degree in Photography. He founded the Absolute Image Studio and Gallery of Fine Art Photography in Long Beach, California.

William held the position of Executive Director of Adelphi Business College, Pacific Coast Technical Institute, and National Technical College. Mr. Cooper was the National Marketing Coordinator for National Education and Software.

He produced several documentaries covering subjects such as the Kennedy assassination and secret black projects that have built flying disk shaped craft. William is an internationally acclaimed radio personality broadcasting the Hour Of The Time on WBCQ worldwide short-wave 7.415 MHz from 10 PM until 11 PM Eastern Standard Time (0300 to 0400 UTC) Monday through Thursday nights.

William Cooper is the author of Behold A Pale Horse. The book has become the best selling underground book of all time. It is read and promoted by word of mouth by People of all races, religions, and nationalities.

Mr. Cooper is a world class lecturer, one of the few other than superstars, monarchs, and Popes who have appeared at Wembly in London. William Cooper has lectured for 10 years in every State.

William Cooper, Trustee, has founded for Harvest Trust, the CAJI News Service, VERITAS national full size newspaper, The Intelligence Service, Harvest Publications, and has helped over 700 low power FM affiliate stations get equipped and on the air... including the station he managed as Trustee for the Independence Foundation Trust, 101.1 FM Eagar, Arizona, broadcasting to 7,000 people.

Under his leadership Harvest Trust ventured into the publishing trade. The first book under the Harvest Trust imprint was Oklahoma City: Day One by Michele Marie Moore... the definitive classic on the Oklahoma City bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995.

Shortly after the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah federal building Rush Limbaugh read a White House memo on the air during his broadcast which named William Cooper, "...the most dangerous radio host in America". Mr. Cooper considers William Clinton's pronouncement the greatest compliment that he has ever received.

William Cooper's FBI file, promulgated by the investigation required by his security clearances while in military service, was one of those unlawfully in possession of the White House in what has become known as, "Filegate". Shortly after this discovery President Clinton ordered all federal agencies to begin investigation, persecution, and prosecution of Mr. Cooper to shut him up.

After years of filing FOIA requests and researching the IRS William Cooper brought suit against the IRS in Federal District Court in Phoenix Arizona to force the IRS to produce proof of jurisdiction and delegation of authority which the IRS was unable to do. To short circuit Mr. Cooper's attempt to reveal the true nature of the criminal IRS, and to carry out the orders of the White House, the agency lied to a Grand Jury, not allowing William Cooper to testify, and secured indictments against Mr. Cooper and his wife Annie. This ploy successfully stopped Mr. Cooper from continuing his suit against the criminal IRS for fear of being arrested.

In 1998 VERITAS and Harvest Publications was sold to Hallmark Creative Corporation along with the copyright and all rights to all written material produced or ever to be produced by William Cooper including Behold A Pale Horse and Oklahoma City: Day one. Hallmark Creative Corporation has contracted to insure this material is always available to the public.

In 1998 copyrights and all rights to all audio and video material produced or ever to be produced by William Cooper was sold to Excel Studios Corporation including the Hour Of The Time broadcast. Excel Studios has contracted to insure this material is always available to the public.

In March of 1999, Cooper William Sent his family out of the United States for their security. He lived and worked alone with his two dogs, one rooster, and one chicken.

This is Called The Most Important Video You'll Ever See, But Its Title is Arithmetic, Population and Energy

Suspend your judgment until you watch the second and third part of this lecture, at which point you'll get the gist of what this astute professor is talking about and feel compelled to watch all eight segments -- exponential population growth and the incumbant crises that it is causing. This country, the United States, has primary culpability, since we consume more natural resources per capita than any other, and I feel personally gravely guilty having fostered five children, including one born just this year on the 4th of July. When all the oil, coal, natural gas, metals and other resources are exhausted and war, famine, disease and death wreak havoc on our planet as a result of overpopulation, what will my children and grandchildren say about me and my generation? WHAT WERE THEY THINKING???

The video shown below -- The Disclosure Project -- is among dozens of similar videos available to watch on You Tube and Google Video which pretty convincingly indicate that alien presence is a fact of life and that alien technology has been retrieved by our government and reverse engineered to produce vehicles which transcend the boundries normally attributed to our rocket technology and internal combustion propulsion devices. Therefore, the case for anti gravity and its utilization as a means of propulsion is a topic which deserves serious scuntiny. Here is the first in a series of videos about anti gravity for your consideration.

Extraterrestrial life forms are here and have been known about by individuals in our government at the highest, albeit covert, levels for over fifty years. Not only have ETs visited our planet, but they have crashed here and their vehicles and bodies have been recovered. Their technology has been back engineered and is being utilized by our government today. These beings have the ability to neutralize of nuclear weapons. They have been mining on the dark side of our moon since the Apollo missions. Their technology would allow us to completely abandon fossil fuels, stop global warming and eradicate hunger and poverty on Earth in twenty years. But don't take my word for it.

An Excerpt from One of My Stories

2008-06-30T21:52:00.005-04:00

"Days and nights in the grips of the torment of a human soul in search of itself.

How shall I explain the incomprehensible? How shall I penetrate the distinction between myself and another? A cold chill runs through me now as I ponder the darkness of a spirit in turmoil.

No, Hell to me is not an academic abstraction but a very tangible, palpable locus.

They say the loss of a child’s innocence begins with the acquisition of language. If so, that means that words corrupt. I understand this imperative. Apparently the naming of things doesn’t corrupt, because that’s what Adam and Eve were about in the Garden. That didn’t cause them to lose their innocence. Beyond the mere naming of physical things, creatures and such, the more words you use to communicate things, the less intuitive you become."

From Beware the Risen Demons, Take Care, the Fallen Angels, a short story by Tono 1999

This is a comprehensive website featuring scads of videos and documents concerning most of the issues and interest points of the new generation of Americans turning away from traditional forms of media, recognizing that these forms are corrupt, propagandizing and dysfunctional, and just another ubiquitous arm of the corporations and the military industrial complex. Zeitgeist, Crop Circles, the Mayan Calendar and its end date in 2012 (or 2011, if you're a follower of Calleman's work), the Illuminati, UFOs, Nibiru, Aliens, even Chakras and Meditation, CIA acid brainwashed murder squads, you name it -- this is a launching site of the mind and it's highly recommended. Turn off the TV, put down the newspaper, close the magazine and book (all forms of media severely compromised by the powers that be), and tune in to 2012 by clicking on the headline above!
