			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/2011/02/26/government-revolts/">What Do You Do When the Government Revolts?</a></p><p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/dictatorship-usa.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 10px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="dictatorship-usa" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/dictatorship-usa_thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="dictatorship-usa" width="141" height="140" align="left" /></a>Fresh off his success destabilizing the government in Egypt, President Obama is now taking aim at domestic tyrants — beginning with Republican Gov. Scott Walker in Wisconsin.</p>
<p>This time, rather than help the Muslim Brotherhood assume power for the first time, Obama is desperately trying to keep public employee unions —call it the Collective Brotherhood — in power.</p>
<p>Why? Unions spent $400 million dollars electing Obama in 2008, and although Barack does not appear to comprehend the damage crippling deficits do to the nation, he’s well aware of what a $400 million dollar hole will do to his re–election budget.</p>
<p>For his part, Gov. Walker is not exactly holed up in an undisclosed location with a junta of military cronies attempting to cut the power to Al–Jazeera. Last November Wisconsin voters elected Walker in a near landslide and threw Democrats out of power in both the state Senate and House.</p>
<p>Now Walker is attempting to implement the program Wisconsin voters approved. This includes balancing the budget by bringing government employee’s benefits in line with those of taxpayers in the private sector and limiting collective bargaining for non–public safety employees. However, the real deal breaker for union honchos is ending the state’s role as enforcer for union dues collection.</p>
<p>The state of Wisconsin doesn’t deduct Netflix fees or health club dues from paychecks, why should it be mandatory that it deduct union dues from every employee paycheck?</p>
<p>If public employee unions are such a great deal for employees, and a real boon to mankind, shouldn’t union members eagerly volunteer to pay dues?</p>
<p>Wisconsin Democrats love for democracy ends when they start losing. This is because “progressives” know what’s good for us. As long as elections confirm their benevolent wisdom, we can vote to our heart’s content. But when voters start grasping for God, guns and gasp, the GOP it’s time to reassert “progressive” control.</p>
<p>After the November drubbing, it is obvious Democrats will lose the vote on Gov. Walker’s reform bill. Senate Democrats decided to destabilize the government by fleeing the state and denying a quorum for the vote. Which makes Dems the willful minority, holed up in some dingy hideout, clinging to power in defiance of the voters.</p>
<p>This is typical. Dems in Texas have done it three times, most recently in 2003, and yesterday Indiana Dems copied Wisconsin dead–enders and joined them in Illinois.</p>
<p>My advice to Gov. Walker is to schedule as many senate votes as possible over the next week or so to highlight the “progressive’s” dereliction of duty. Demonstrate conclusively that these Democrats are willfully disrupting the will of the people by preventing the legislature from functioning.</p>
<p>Then leaders in the Wisconsin Senate should invoke Article 13, Section 10 of the state Constitution that says the legislature may declare a seat vacant. This vote only requires a majority of the Senate for a quorum, which the 19 GOP members more than satisfy.</p>
<p>Threaten the AWOL senators with loss of their seats and privilege and I predict the romance of a life on the lam will lose its attractiveness.</p>
<p>Make no mistake; this confrontation in Wisconsin is Stalingrad for public employee unions and big government–supporting Democrats.</p>
<p>Madison, Wisconsin was the birthplace of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. Wisconsin was the first state to give public employees collective bargaining rights. In 2010 unions as a whole spent $2.5 million in Wisconsin to elect candidates to do their bidding.</p>
<p>If they lose here, public employee unions can lose anywhere and that means a large part of the rent–an–activist and campaign contribution base of the Democrat party will be crippled in 2012.</p>
<p>Obama has expressed his support for protesters occupying the Wisconsin capital. His political operation “Organizing for America” is helping organize the protests that are disrupting the government and closing public schools.</p>
<p>Democrats are road testing “government shutdown” arguments and media massaging techniques in Wisconsin that they plan to use here in DC when Republicans confront the White House over federal budget cuts.</p>
<p>The stakes could not be higher for both sides.</p>
<p>The situation and its outcome are also important for Virginia. Currently Dems in our Senate have a tenuous grasp on power. But after November’s election Senate Dems, newly in the minority, may be issuing manifestos from somewhere in the wilds of West Virginia.</p>
<p>It’s time Republicans learn to play hardball and enact the will of the taxpayers. Wisconsin — home of the Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers! — is a great place to start.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/2010/12/18/democrats-save-obama/">Can The Democrats Save Obama? Do They Want To?</a></p><p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/obama-democrats.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img style="background-image: none; margin: 0px 10px 5px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;" title="obama-democrats" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/obama-democrats_thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="obama-democrats" width="153" height="103" align="left" /></a>Obama is in TROUBLE. <em>Big Trouble.</em> He has managed to “P.O.” the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, AND the Tea Party. And – if the polls are to be believed—he has, somehow, managed to tick off a slew of Independent voters, as well. He has done it before reaching the mid-point of his term in office.</p>
<p>Did we not warn the man is a narcissist? Yes, we did! We were scorned and ridiculed for daring to speak what was obvious to anyone except those who were, and are, willfully blind to the truth.</p>
<p>So, here we go again, issuing a warning to the leftists in America: <em>You ain’t seen nothing yet!</em> As Obama triangulates toward the middle (<em>as per Bill Clinton</em>) you may need professional help with your collective blood pressure.</p>
<p>Americans spoke last month and they declared they do not like the course Obama has set for this country. The voters told the US government they would not stand for it and sent a new batch of Congresspersons and Senators to Washington to put a stop to it. It was a message <em>writ large</em> across the face of the Obama Regime. <strong><em>ENOUGH!</em></strong> <strong><em>No More!</em></strong> We intend to stop America’s race toward socialism, which has been so enthusiastically led by Obama and the liberal-socialists in the Congress.</p>
<p>Americans have a natural in-born hatred for tyranny <em>in any form</em>. When we find it in our own government, <em>we rip it out.</em></p>
<p>The purge of the Congress began last month. It was only phase one of the American endeavors to take back America from those who would <em>fundamentally change</em> America into some sort of socialist dung heap.</p>
<p>The second phase has begun. The gelding of the socialist movement within the American government will be the prime goal over the next two years. It will not be easy. They have entrenched themselves and they are dug-in deep.</p>
<p>So, it follows that phase three will be the completion of the purge of the remaining progressives and socialists in the Congress <em>along with those in the White House.</em> They must be rooted out and identified, publicly, so the American electorate has a face for the socialist movement in their government. The end result will be the removal of the anti-American socialist cancer within the American governing body. That is set to occur in November of 2012.</p>
<p>Conservatives all over this nation are burning the midnight oil devising plans of action that will save the constitutional republic of America from her domestic enemies.</p>
<p>I should be clear to all Americans now that the most effective people in Washington for the Republican Party are: Obama, Pelosi, and Reid. For certain, it is crystal clear to all Americans exactly what the liberal-socialists in the Democratic Party have been up to over the past four years.</p>
<p>To a growing majority of Americans from both left and the right, it is now clear that they could not care less what the American people want. They have demonstrated, clearly, the only thing they have any interest in is changing America &#8212; not for the better &#8212; but for the worst. We intend to turn the lights back on in that “Shining City on A Hill” the lights the democrat liberal-socialists so unceremoniously outed when they took the reins of power in 2006.</p>
<p>We cannot expect the Democrats to take this lying down. They will come at us, tooth and claw. The next two years will be spent by the democrats shoring up their base, which is a collection of unions, minority groups, special interest groups, socialists, progressives, and the few unenlightened liberals who, for some reason, have yet to understand, or accept, that Obama is at the head of the movement to strip America of its superpower status and force America from its leadership position among the nations of the world.</p>
<p>It would seem that the famous, or infamous, “liberal guilt” has spawned a party-wide inferiority complex among the democrats. They fail to understand their sackcloth and ashes apologies for previous actions of their own country is not seen as a courageous act on their part, but is rather interpreted as show of weakness by America’s enemies. It is a perceived weakness they will most certainly take advantage of and may even result in the loss of even more American lives around the globe as well as right here within our own borders.</p>
<p>It has become clear over the past couple of decades, or so, that our so-called allies in Europe have little, if any, understanding of the American people – not the American government – <em>the American people.</em> The do not seem to grasp that the American people have realized their mistake in electing Obama to the Presidency and handing over legislative power to the liberal-socialists of the Democratic Party. Americans are compelled, not just because they have the right, but because they have a duty, to right their government when it becomes as derailed as it so obviously is today. The majority of Americans now know the derailment was caused by the efforts of the Obama Regime and the Democrat Party controlled Congress. They will not forget it by November of 2012 and they will go to the polls and vote to save America by removing from office those they have determined to be the culprits of America’s demise into mediocrity.</p>
<p>When given a choice between saving the Obama Regime or saving America, my money is on Americans rising to the challenge, as we always have in the past, and saving this last best hope for the world – America.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/2010/07/23/earth-move/">Did the Earth Move for You?</a></p><p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/sleeping.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img class="wlDisabledImage" style="margin: 0px 10px 5px; display: inline; border: 0px;" title="sleeping" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/sleeping_thumb.jpg" border="0" alt="sleeping" width="108" height="108" align="left" /></a>Last Friday at 5 AM, after a quiet spell of some 13 years, Prince William County, VA had an earthquake. For commuters 5AM is when they’re getting ready to head to work. For drunks and night owls it’s the time they are arriving home. So thousands of people were out of bed and functioning, more or less, yet only six residents here called 911.</p>
<p>So I’m wondering: if this is a good thing or a bad thing?</p>
<p>The quake was a magnitude of 3.6, which is hardly San Fransiscan in intensity. If you were sleeping, it probably felt like the dog jumped on the bed. But that didn’t stop the good residents of Montgomery County, MD from dialing <em>their</em> 911 center. Thousands of residents there called in to report the obvious.<br />
Causing me to wonder if the good liberals in Montgomery thought their government authorities were too obtuse to notice an earthquake, or worse, they wanted them to do something about it?</p>
<p>Some may contend that my criticism is not fair because Montgomery is a larger county and consequently more people would call. True, it’s 2.6 times larger than PWC. So multiplying our earthquake calls by a factor of 2.6 gives us a total of 16 callers.</p>
<p>That’s not enough people to staff a day–labor center in Montgomery, to say nothing of tie up the phone lines.</p>
<p>On the other hand, it could be that we are too dense to realize that the bed shaking wasn’t caused by last night’s burrito. A recent study by the Brookings Institution trumpeted the fact that the Washington DC metro area has the best-educated populace in the nation.</p>
<p>Although DC itself remains a sinkhole of bad schools and ignorance; the surrounding counties of Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Howard and Montgomery are tops when measured by the number of bachelor’s degrees tacked on office walls. Blue–voting Democrat regions simply love these reports because the findings fuel liberal’s immense self–infatuation.</p>
<p>They’re smart, they vote for Obama and they think earthquakes are against the law.</p>
<p>You may have noticed my county didn’t make the list, but I didn’t do something stupid like donate to an NPR pledge drive to compensate. Education does not necessarily equal competence. Four years of gender studies and art history may not be relevant in the real world. A University of Connecticut survey found that the longer students stay in college the less they know about American history, government or the economy. Incoming freshmen know more about all these topics than the outgoing seniors.</p>
<p>Which explains why residents here know earthquakes are not a police matter. We just reach over the TV set to straighten Elvis’ portrait, touch our plastic Jesus for luck and head off to work — while in Montgomery the highly–educated are still arguing with the dispatcher.</p>
<p>You’d think now that Leftists are running the country they would be titans of self–esteem and confidence. Yet quite the opposite is true. Their faulty belief system only serves to make the average liberal feel individually powerless, which is why they look to government for relief, protection and a big hug.</p>
<p>Case in point: on the Washington Post front page readers were subject to a 1,100–word whinefest about ‘seat hogs.’ These porcine Metro riders sit in the aisle seat leaving an empty seat by the window or take up a vacant seat with their briefcase, medical marijuana or copy of Obamacare. Diffident, petulant Leftists stand fuming in the aisle because ‘seat hogs’ didn’t notice their predicament.</p>
<p>Vertical liberals are posting heated complaints on blogs, griping to each other and evidently buttonholing Leftist reporters.</p>
<p>But is this front page news?</p>
<p>Only if you think “somebody” meaning the authorities need to “do something” meaning pass a law, have a hearing, solicit a bid or post a sign.</p>
<p>These interpersonal situations aren’t complicated. Even a liberal can stand close to the individual who is taking up more than their government–approved ration of Metro space, say “excuse me, please” in a firm voice and then wait for the person to stand and let you by, slide over themselves or as a last resort you can squeeze past them.</p>
<p>There, that wasn’t so hard, was it?</p>
<p>As a matter of fact it probably is, because “elite” journalists are busy infantilizing “elite” readers. Take another Post story on blisters: I read it hoping for some useful breakthrough in blister technology. But no, the thrust of this story was blisters can be painful (!) and don’t under any circumstances pop a blister. That’s a medical procedure approaching a liver transplant in complexity and you should leave it to the “experts.”</p>
<p>And I now have my answer: a total of six earthquake callers is good. It indicates we are self–reliant here. We pop our own blisters and confront our own earthquakes.</p>

BIG TROUBLE! I write not of the financial mess in which we find ourselves embroiled. No. The crisis of which I speak is a crisis of the soul of every individual American. And the blame for this endangerment of the souls of Americans can be laid at the feet of the hierarchy of the mainline religious denominations in America.</p>
<p>This nation, whether you choose to believe it &#8212; or not, was founded as much on biblical scripture as it was on common law. America used to be a “God-fearing” nation filled with people who KNEW they relied upon the kindness and the grace of an omnipotent God to guide them through any troubles they/we as individuals, and as a nation, faced. That is no longer the case. The result of of switching America’s fealty from God to man is plain for all to see. We are today – a pitiful nation in decline.</p>
<p>America resembles nothing less today than a once powerful, muscular, man whose body is riddled by cancer and has shrunken to a shell of its former being.</p>
<p>When America was young and vital the ministers of the mainline denominations took to their pulpits to preach from the Scriptures. They told their parishioners of the story of God’s benevolence, his faithfulness, and they told us of his jealousy. They reminded Americans that God himself said: “I am a jealous God!”</p>
<p>Those of us perched in the pews knew there was a price to be paid for willfully disconnecting oneself from the power source that is God. Equally as important, I think, we Americans knew, in those days, that America was no accident. We KNEW that America was to us as the Promised Land had been, and remains, to the Jewish people.</p>
<p>The extreme importance the ministers, priests, and rabbis of the churches and synagogues cannot be overestimated. It was they who shepherded the huge flock known as America in the way they should go. And America was so much better for it.</p>
<p>The bitter truth is, in my opinion, the church has turned its collective back on the One they purportedly serve and now serve, instead, their own interests, their own, politics, their own politically correct philosophy of what God ought to be, and, in so doing, they have created God in their own image. And what a pitiful god they have created!</p>
<p>Moral equivalence has no place in the pulpit. When God, Himself, refers to some action, or inaction of man as a sin, then it is not left to the ministers to equivocate. They are bound to pass God’s pronouncement on to the sheep of their flock. For a pastor to do less cannot be defined as being honest with either man or God.</p>
<p>There was a time, not so long ago, when ministers were the pillars of their community, both the religious community and the secular community. They were solid citizens. They could be looked up to, relied upon, and trusted. In many cases they were role models for youngsters who would later join their ranks as pastors, priests, and rabbis. That was then. This is now.</p>
<p>Those members left in the congregations of today’s mainline churches are growing older as the rolls continue to shrink. Attendance at services is very low. In some of the denominations there seems to be an on going struggle of wills between the membership and the hierarchy of the churches. Such an atmosphere is not conducive to worship. Sniping? Maybe. Worship? No.</p>
<p>So what has happened? It has been my personal observation that the hierarchy of the mainline churches went left and adopted so much of the philosophy of the left that many of their members left. I don’t mean the membership went left, also. I mean they LEFT as in: They went away. In fact, many of them went right. That is just another way of saying they began to associate themselves with churches that still believe, preach, and practice the scriptures. That explains why the evangelical churches in America are growing by leaps and bounds.</p>
<p>Look, churches cannot claim to be representatives of God on this earth, a Christian church, and then teach a congregation a lifestyle that is not Christian and certainly not in keeping with what the scriptures tell us God/Christ taught us &#8212; and demands of us. It is as simple as that.</p>
<p>Somehow, the mainline denominations have made a turn away from God, away from those age-old lessons He has taught us through the authority of the scriptures, and now they find themselves blindly stumbling down the road to complete oblivion. And the really sad thing &#8212; they don’t understand why.</p>
<p>I know this is not the popular explanation for what has befallen those shrinking denominations – I do. But when you clear all the smoke away, get past all the excuses, and really, REALLY, look at how the churches got into this fix, there is only one answer.</p>
<p>Look, I am a refugee from one of those churches. I saw this coming. I fought it for about five years, or so. I argued my way up the hierarchical ladder to the top – only to have my national bishop tell me I didn’t know what the dickens I was talking about (in a kindly and gentle fashion, of course). It was then that I decided to cut my losses and hit the door. I did so amidst numerous accusations that I would not stay and fight from within the church. My answer was that I was following the teachings of the scriptures in getting myself “OUT from among them.”</p>
<p>I hold that the collapse of the mainline denominations not only will have, but already HAS had, an extremely negative effect on America. All one has to do is consider our society today, our government, our education system, practically every facet of American life which was so carefully influenced by the church in the early days of America. Observe how it has all become so crass, so unkind, and so angry. It is obvious that something is missing. The churches in America once provided that missing thing.</p>
<p>There was a time when the church not only set the standards for American society, often times it WAS the standard for our society. They spoke with the authority of the scriptures. When the mainline denominations turned their backs on the scriptures they began losing their authority… and their followers who, naturally, sought green pastures and still waters in the flocks of the evangelicals who still believe that being biblically correct rather than politically correct is the path to righteousness and the guarantee of eternal rest.</p>
<p>Why is this so difficult for our mainline denominations to understand?</p>

What are the messages you would like to share with other Americans?</p>

<p>“Just make sure it’s no more than 250 words.”</p>
<p>&#8220;I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country.&#8221;<br />
-<em> Thomas Jefferson </em></p>
<p>Americans can no longer define those values which allegedly unite us, as We are under full assault from Big Brother’s Ministry of Truth, as meted out by the corporate-owned media outlets.</p>
<p>Many squabbling nationalities now attempt to define what was once one vibrant people. Some of these &#8220;undocumented immigrants&#8221; who broke into our country as invaders and marauding scarecrows, now advise us that we are beaten old dogs, who should return to Europe.</p>
<p>The president of Mexico recently stood up to address Congress in castigation of Arizona&#8217;s new immigration law. Mexican president Felipe Calderon charged the nation which elected a black president as being &#8220;racist&#8221; for defending itself from Mexico&#8217;s race war, called &#8220;La Reconquista.&#8221; Calderon does not like the fact that the American people are able to &#8220;discriminate&#8221; a border breacher from a lawful immigrant and a so-called &#8220;anchor baby&#8221; from a Mexican Lebensborn movement, designed to eclipse an entire people in its own homeland.</p>
<p>The American people openly question the usurper and Great Imposter sitting in the Oval Office, who willfully refuses to provide proper credentials to the American people that he is indeed a lawful citizen and not an illegal alien&#8211;like his aunt, who got preferential treatment.</p>
<p>The recent shocking display of Mexico&#8217;s president in addressing Congress was directly enabled by the recent apology tour of the Obama administration to Red China.</p>
<p>American presidents do NOT apologize for American exceptionalism, but this one apparently revels in indulging himself.</p>
<p>Foreigners now attempt to define the national agenda by directly interfering in the American political process, as the jackals in Congress who cannot stand and deliver for the American people, rise to a standing ovation for the cheeky Mexican president, whose countrymen are in active annexation of American territory.</p>
<p>All of these things which have been witnessed by the American people, must be remembered this Independence Day, as we celebrate the freedoms we are rapidly losing&#8211;including our very cultural patrimony and identity. Soon the Fourth of July will be replaced by Cinco de Mayo, if the nation remains charted on its present course.</p>
<p>The nation needs to remember that the Revolutionary War was fought over the question of who owns the purse strings, for financial power is the sole determinant of freedom or lack thereof.</p>
<p>&#8220;The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters, had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money, which created great unemployment and dissatisfaction. Within a year, the poor houses were filled. The hungry and homeless walked the streets everywhere. The inability of the colonists to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of George III and the International Bankers was probably the Prime reason for the Revolutionary War.&#8221;<br />
- Benjamin Franklin, as quoted from his autobiography</p>
<p>Americans are a vigilant people and this awareness now fires the consciousness of the Second American Revolution, as the American people face the very same adversaries (the international bankers) the forefathers faced.</p>
<p>&#8220;Give me control of a nation&#8217;s money and I care not who makes the laws.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744-1812), Godfather of the Rothschild Banking Cartel of Europe</p>
<p>Of the top 100 economies of the planet, fifty-two are owned by private corporations, including the United States of America. Such a state of the Union is intolerable to a deliberate and revolutionary people.</p>
<p>&#8220;In the colonies, we issue our own paper money. It is called &#8216;Colonial Script&#8217;. We issue it in proper proportion to make the goods pass easily from the producers to the consumers. In this manner, creating ourselves our own paper money, we control it&#8217;s purchasing power and we have no interest to pay to anyone.&#8221;<br />
- Benjamin Franklin, speaking at the London Parliament</p>
<p>The American nation has always been divided and at odds with itself, for that is precisely what the international bankers strive to do, by distracting the people with matters of small or no importance, so that these vested interests may pursue their divide and conquer strategy unopposed.</p>
<p>It is obvious that the nation must remember the sacrifices of those who went before us and suffered the harsh winter at Valley Forge, but it is also well to remember that this nation is racially and culturally Anglo-Saxon and when that dominant Anglo-Saxon culture comes under the sway of a “politically correct” weltanschauung, the fine wine of one culture becomes diluted with the sewer water coming from failed nations of the Third World, who come not to assimilate so much as to enforce their own version of “jihad” or “La Reconquista.”</p>
<p>The American nation must define itself&#8211;with no apologies&#8211;as predominately an Anglo-Saxon culture and NOT a multicultural cess pit of drive-by shootings, carjackings, “honor killings,” kidnappings and other depredations committed by interlopers from the Third World.</p>
<p>Red China, Japan, Israel and other nations have no problem in asserting their racial, tribal and cultural identities. The harsh immigration law of Mexico speaks volumes in this regard.</p>
<p>The United States of America is NOT a social engineering experiment in fashioning a petri dish mish-mash of chaotic peoples, designed to melt into a volatile mixture which turns our nation into a multicultural zoo or mini United Nations.</p>
<p>The so-called “United Nations,” is the phony storefront of the international bankers.</p>
<p>Americans must remember that the function of our country is NOT to be a social experiment in cloning proles for Big Brother’s New World Order.</p>
<p>The nation must remember the Constitution and the mandate it gives the people to coin their own money and NOT be dependent on bankers to craft money and credit out of thin air, with which to destroy this country, through the yoke of usury.</p>
<p>Americans must remember that this country belongs to the American people and not the corporations, which have enslaved industrialized nations in both hemispheres of the planet by enabling them to be victimized by the unwitting third world corporate shock troop known as “guest worker.”</p>
<p>The people of the United States of America must nationalize the so-called “Federal Reserve” and return power of the purse to the citizens of this country, who have been victimized by the robber barons since the establishment of the Fed in 1913.</p>
<p>These vested interests realize the American people are beginning to awaken from their long somnolence thanks to the omnipresent Internet, which is free of the trammels imposed by the oligarchy, which owns the newspapers and airwaves.</p>
<p>“The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.”</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p>Thomas Jefferson</p>
<p>This power of financial self-determination was called for by Thomas Jefferson two hundred years ago. It was actually delivered by President John F. Kennedy with his Executive Order 11110, abolishing the Federal Reserve, but he&#8211;like Abraham Lincoln&#8211;was assassinated for trying to deliver the American people from slavery to usury.</p>
<p>As we look to Arlington National Cemetery in remembrance of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, it is well to remember that our fallen captain, John F. Kennedy, has not been forgotten and that We the People are no longer asking what we can do for our country. We know what must be done and that great task is to define ourselves beyond the myth-making of those who would label us a nation of “wretched refuse” to debt slavery, or a flophouse/safety valve for itinerant Che Guevara &#8220;revolutionaries&#8221; and squatters.</p>
<p>Americans are a people pedigreed in liberty and owe nothing to the mongrelized masses of humanity coming here with outstretched hand. Nor do we need to suffer the insults of the Mexican president, who came here as a guest and&#8211; like his countrymen&#8211;wore out his welcome with his transparent display of meddling in sovereign American affairs.</p>
<p>The United States of America is the pole star for all revolutionary movements; past, present and future and such definitive revolution is NOT the prerogative of the Marxist, who declares the Founding Fathers to be genocidal slave masters. This revolutionary zeal of the American people, should be sufficient to define for the world that we will NOT be making any further apology tours.</p>
<p>A debt-free money system is the legacy bequeathed to us by the Founding Fathers and what Americans must remember every Fourth of July. All questions of survival of this republic, pivot on the axis of this central truth. As long as America remains the property of a private corporation, the American people will suffer the slings and arrows of misfortune.</p>
<p>Americans must remember that we need to get our financial house in order by ending the Federal Reserve, before it ends this great republic.</p>
<p>Any people asked to bail out robber barons, are doing nothing more than paying danegeld to support their own slavery.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/2010/06/16/olympics-subtly-lure-tots-paganisms-embrace/">Olympics Subtly Lure Tots Into Paganism&#8217;s Embrace</a></p><p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/VancouverwinterOlympicsmascot1.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px; display: inline; border: 0px;" title="Vancouver-winter-Olympics-mascot" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/VancouverwinterOlympicsmascot_thumb1.jpg" border="0" alt="Vancouver-winter-Olympics-mascot" width="171" height="128" align="left" /></a> Over the past decade and a half or thereabouts, I have published occasional columns pointing out that there is more going on in terms of worldview at the Olympic games than good sportsmanship and keeping a stoic outlook no matter how disappointed one might be at the outcome of a particular event. These worldviews often come closest to public light in commemorations surrounding the games such as the opening or closing ceremonies.</p>
<p>For example, in an audio commentary I noted the blatant paganism at the 2006 games in Greece where the ancient gods were not so much depicted as curiosities of mankind’s religious history with the possibility of a few moral axioms derivable occasionally from these myths when approached as literature. Rather, adoration of these entities was approached as a viable system of belief around which humanity could draw ongoing sustain inspiration moving the world towards cultural unification.</p>
<p>For the most part, such ideological manipulation was aimed largely at a generalized audience irrespective of age. Now it seems Olympic organizers may have more carefully targeted their indoctrination efforts towards children.</p>
<p>During each Olympiad, mascots are created as appealing embodiments of each unique set of games. For example, the 1984 Olympics held in Los Angeles were represented by Sam the Olympian, a bald eagle clad in red, white, and blue which alluded to Uncle Same and the highest ideals of the American people.</p>
<p>It has been a quarter of a century since then and the practice continues. It is doubtful, though, parents with a lick of sense about them will be as enthusiastic about what is being pushed now as adorable imaginative companions.</p>
<p>The first outrage is really more economic than anything else. Though cluttered over with all the nauseating sentiments about international cooperation and competition being the focal point of the games, ultimately under the banner of these spectacles, significant amounts of money changes hands.</p>
<p>No doubt, nice checks went to the firms and/or artists creating the mascots of the Vancouver games. What the artists this time deserve are gold metals for the least amount work possible going into the artistic rendering of an Olympiad’s mascots.</p>
<p>For example, Sam the Olympian was rendered with the skill, precision, and appeal for which 20th century Disney characters were noted and adored for by the public. One does not need to go into a lengthy backstory to figure out what Sam the Eagle is and what he stands for.</p>
<p>This is not the case of the mascots of the Vancouver winter Olympics. In fact, the firm that designed the characters should have been paid no more for these rendering than one would a doodler in a high school art class. In the high school art class I was enrolled in, one would have received a grade not much above passing had one handed in something looking as ridiculous and simplistic.</p>
<p>What becomes really questionable, however, is in regards to what the mascots represent. The following comes not from conservative or even Christian fundamentalist conspiracy theorists, but rather from the Wikipedia entry for the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paraolympic Games mascots.</p>
<p>Of the trio, the most realistic is a Sasquatch named “Quatchi”. That isn’t too bad as for decades as the Sasquatch or Bigfoot has been a cryptozoological celebrity of the Pacific Northwest.</p>
<p>However, it today’s world, it’s never enough to let characters be huggable and adorable in and of themselves. Why waste an opportunity to manipulate young minds away from the values decent parents are trying to inoculate into their children?</p>
<p>Those that look closer at Quatchi will notice that there is a tattoo on his bicep. With over a third of the population mutilated and defaced in this fashion, do children of the world really need additional peer pressure as to this questionable form of bodily ornamentation?</p>
<p>The free spirit who are of a live-and-let-live mindset regarding every questionable practice with the exception of questioning the live-and-let-live mindset will respond, &#8220;Why are you fuddiduddies making such a production out of a simple tattoo that no one is going to notice?&#8221;</p>
<p>Oh really? If the bio-graffiti was not going to be noticed by spectators, the why did the artist take the time to add this particular design element? It takes so long to produce a finished artistic work that has to go through multiple editorial reviews that it is doubtful that any detail would be overlooked. And if the marking is not there for any particular reason, then why does it need to be there at all?</p>
<p>However, a tattoo strategically placed upon a mascot is not the only aspect about these characters designed to subconsciously lead Western children away from the values of their forefathers. For even though the games are presented as belonging to the world, only Westerners of a multiculturalist inclination would be deluded into thinking that Westerners wouldn’t be the only ones with enough leisure time to soak up the ambiance of the games as well as enough disposable income for all of the assorted trinkets pushed at spectators. After all, though they might excel at warm weather sports such as running, sub-Saharan Africans aren&#8217;t exactly renowned for their alacrity to ice and snow.</p>
<p>The other mascot of the Olympics Proper is Miga, a mystical sea bear that is part orca and part kermode bear. In other words, unless the poor creature is languishing in a laboratory somewhere, which one shouldn&#8217;t put past some deranged geneticist just for the Sheol of it these days, it doesn&#8217;t exist.</p>
<p>Perhaps the most questionable mascot is Sumi. According to Wikipedia, Sumi is &#8220;an animal guardian spirit with the wins of a Thunderbird and the legs of a black bear who wears the hat of an orca whale.&#8221; In other words, it is a mishmashed critter that likes to cross dress.</p>
<p>Though there are numerous jokes that could be made about these two, the important issue is the role guardian spirits and orcas that transform into white bears play in American Indian mythology and belief systems. From as much hoopla that is being made about so-called &#8220;native populations&#8221; of the Pacific Northwest, one would assume that not Whites lived there or at least ones that did not go around with their shoulders slouched and their heads hunched for simply being White. Since Whites pay taxes too and are less likely to be on the public dole, shouldn&#8217;t they get some kind of honorable mention for contributing to the culture or at least the economy of the area?</p>
<p>Olympic organizers are no doubt playing up the animistic belief of the area&#8217;s history for the very same reason that the Athens Olympiad played up that culture&#8217;s pagan past. For the thing with the amorphous religiosity of the New Age movement under which both Greco-Roman paganism and American Indian shamanism both find acceptance is the idea that the realm of the spirit is coterminous with the physical world. As such, in this system, there can be no authority higher than the earthly institutions that embrace such a mindset.</p>
<p>As an antithetical perspective, monotheism cannot be countenanced since its God exists transcendent to the socio-physical order. God decrees what is and is not right and good. He does not take the findings of committees into consideration and as such the authority of any committee is circumscribed by Him.</p>
<p>This column should not be construed as a blanket condemnation of the imagination. For as a fan of speculative fiction myself, I don’t even hop on the anti-Harry Potter bandwagon with the unreserved enthusiasm demanded by many rigorous theologians and Bible scholars.</p>
<p>Rather, what is being called for here is a notion of epistemological equality. It is quite obvious that a mascot with a Christian or even Hebraic background or origins would not be put up with.</p>
<p>At the Copenhagen Global Warming Summitt, though the God of the Bible had the last laugh as He socked the proceedings with a blizzard, theophobes complained about evergreens planted in front of the conference center because some kook might misconstrue them as Christmas trees. The trees had to be removed in order to prevent any appearance of an endorsement of any particular religion at a UN function. Yet these very same environmental bureaucrats would support multiple layers of laws and regulations ranging all the way from international treaties down to the minutest municipal statutes that would prevent you from removing trees from your very own property.</p>
<p>Proponents of the Olympic games might claim the festival is all about friendly competition and the pursuit of athletic excellence. Realists will point out that it has just as much or even more to do with money and power.</p>
<p>At the global level, the boundaries between government and big business grow increasingly blurred. Thus, at some point in terms of either direct sponsorship or roundabout subsidies, taxpayers around the world are at some level financing the Olympic games out of their own pockets.</p>
<p>Often, even if there is minimal public money flowing into a government agency or even a private organization, these administrative entities must go out of their way to guarantee that they in no way exhibit any kind of preference for one religious system or spiritual belief over another. This standard is especially applied to Christianity.</p>
<p>Though initially founded as a celebration in adoration of heathen idols, theoretically the contemporary Olympic games could be held strictly as a secular competition in terms of philosophical neutrality if its administrators distanced the celebration from its questionable past and stuck to officiating races. Whatever path is decided upon, it will be a deliberate choice.</p>
<p>If those trusted with overseeing this event insist upon pursuing a manipulative mysticism, those redeemed by the one true God should first and foremost boldly warn what is rally going on beneath all the pageantry and excitement. Only then is the individual able to make a truly informed decision in keeping with their conscience.</p>

<p>~ Latvian documentary <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQvsf2MUKRQ">&#8220;The Soviet Story&#8221; (2008)</a></p>
<p><em>I am more than willing to drop the radical pose for the radical ends.</em></p>
<p>~ Van Jones (Communist, Obama&#8217;s former green czar)</p>
<p><strong>Prologue</strong></p>
<p>Slavery, abortion, social Darwinism (evolution), eugenics, fascism (i.e., Nazism, communism, liberalism), are perhaps the five most diabolical and irredeemable ideas of the past 160 years; yet despite civil wars, world wars, social revolutions, civil-rights acts, Christian revivals and political reforms, this five-headed monster is still alive and thrives under the totalitarian cult of liberalism, now called &#8220;progressivism.&#8221;</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Slavery</strong>Slavery has existed since the earliest annals of human history and has been practiced at some period by virtually every nation and tribe on earth. In America, it took a bloody Civil War to bring an end to this &#8220;peculiar institution&#8221; in 1865 and later by law via the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments.The Democratic Party proliferated and profited most from slavery, and yet because of liberal hegemony in the academy, courts, Congress, media and Hollywood, the virulently racist background and political madness of liberalism has been largely erased from the history books, and all sins forgiven. Why? Because the Democrats co-opted the black vote in the early 1930s, and LBJ got all the credit for passing the Civil Rights Act (1964, 1968) and the Voting Rights Act (1965).</li>
<li><strong>Abortion</strong>Abortion is the act of a woman causing the premature termination of her baby and pregnancy. Despite volumes written on abortion, few writers have made the unmistakable connection between the twin evils of abortion and slavery – such as, for every 1,000 black babies born in America, there are 472 unborn black babies aborted, or for every two black babies born, one black baby is aborted.The NAACP and the civil-rights movement essentially support the genocide of their own race.
<p>I made the existential connection between slavery and abortion in a <a href=" http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=56775#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed">Socratic dialogue</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Socrates:</strong> Indeed. You must first tell us why this day does America allow an average of 1.5 million abortions annually and 40 million to 53 million abortions worldwide? Why have between 40 million and 50 million abortions occurred in America alone since Roe v. Wade (1973)? This, in a country that in your own Declaration promised each of her citizens &#8220;<em>Life</em>, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness&#8221;? Why, Mr. ACLU?</p>
<p><strong>Attorney ACLU:</strong> {<em>indignant</em>} B-B-B-But, but, but, but abortions are an entirely different issue than slavery.</p>
<p><strong>Socrates</strong>: I agree if by &#8220;different&#8221; you mean in the <em>manner</em> of execution. However, the public policy is the same: One person, the slave master with slavery and one woman or Supreme Court justice with abortion, has the legal authority to kill another human being, correct, Attorney ACLU?</p></blockquote>
</li>
<li><strong>Social Darwinism (evolution)</strong>Social Darwinism understands that the laws of Darwinian evolution by natural selection are applicable to social structures and public policy. Despite the instant and worldwide cult following of evolution since the 1860s, Darwin was rightly skeptical and in a famous letter to Asa Gray Darwin shared his doubts about evolution, writing: &#8220;… I am quite conscious that my speculations run beyond the bounds of true science. &#8230; It is a mere rag of an hypothesis with as many flaw[s] and holes as sound parts.&#8221;In his 1882 book, &#8220;Selection in Relation to Sex,&#8221; social Darwinism was his major thesis:<br />
<blockquote><p>Thus the weak members of civilized societies propagate their kind. No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man … <em>hardly any one is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.</em></p></blockquote>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>Who</em> determines who lives and who dies? Progressives, of course.</li>
<li><strong>Eugenics</strong><img style="margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px; display: inline;" src="http://www.wnd.com/images/washington100612.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="233" height="211" align="left" />&#8220;Eugenics is the study and practice of selective breeding applied to humans, with the aim of improving the species.&#8221; Eugenics was founded by Darwin&#8217;s cousin, Francis Galton. Margaret Sanger zealously propagated eugenics before becoming the founder of Planned Parenthood, one of the largest abortion providers in the world. Sanger&#8217;s entire idea for eugenics (of which abortion is its logical consequence) was to bring genocide to the black race, which Sanger and many progressive intellectuals believed was by nature unworthy of full participation in civilization.</li>
<li><strong>5. Fascism</strong>Throughout history, liberalism, totalitarianism, terrorism, anarchy and fascism have been bedfellows – during the Age of Enlightenment (Voltaire, Rousseau, Diderot, Jefferson), through its systemic corruption during the French Revolution (the Jacobins, Robespierre) and later during 19th-century German Romanticism (Schopenhauer, Wagner, Kaiser Wilhelm, Darwin, Nietzsche). The 20th century saw liberalism morph into the progressive movement and the modern welfare state (Lippmann, Croly, John Dewey, Woodrow Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Obama) where the apotheosis of the State has essentially replaced God, reason, constitutionalism and Natural Law.</li>
<li>Dr. Benjamin Wiker&#8217;s &#8220;10 Books That Screwed Up the World&#8221; placed liberalism in its epistemological context:<br />
<blockquote><p>But the significant influence on Hitler of thinkers such as Darwin and Nietzsche should bring us to the recognition that we can&#8217;t hold Hitler up as some kind of singular exemplar of evil. He was a man of his times, a 19th- and 20th-century man who owed as much as Margaret Sanger to the Darwinian eugenic theories in circulation and shared the same reaction as Nietzsche to the Epicurean diminution of man brought about by the liberalism of Hobbes and Mill.</p></blockquote>
</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Epilogue</strong></p>
<p>Slavery, abortion, social Darwinism, eugenics and fascism make up the five-headed monster of the Liberal-Muslim Axis. Each head reveals the Nazi doctrine of <em>Lebensunwertes Leben</em> (life unworthy of life). In the modern era, these ideas and policies are directly responsible for the genocide of hundreds of millions of people.</p>
<p>Liberal fascism is exhibited today in policies like Obamacare, TARP, Obama&#8217;s takeover of the banking and auto industries, exploiting the Gulf oil leak to destroy the oil industry through federal takeover while forcing Americans into unsustainable alternative energy uses, thus further decimating our economy.</p>
<p>Absent Christianity and Natural Law, Obama&#8217;s revolutionary policies will only augment the ever-expanding socialist state under the Liberal-Fascist Axis.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: xx-small;">*** Please note that these articles provide a Biblical perspective on the idea of the ‘Matrix’ as an alternate reality, an idea that has gone mainstream as a result of The Matrix movie trilogy. This is a multi part series based strictly on the first movie titled ‘The Matrix’. The other two films in the trilogy also had some interesting symbolism and ideology that will be explored separately at a later time. </span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/matrix1.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img style="margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px; display: inline; border-width: 0px;" title="matrix" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/matrix_thumb1.jpg" border="0" alt="matrix" width="156" height="126" align="left" /></a> The Hive Mind of The Borg.</strong></span></p>
<p>In<a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-4.html"> part 4</a> and <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-5.html">part 5 </a>of this series, it was proven that on a micro level or on the level of individuals the Matrix is a Belief System that keeps the minds of the masses enslaved through voluntary submission to ideologies that few attempt to understand. The entire purpose of existence is reduced to (1) Economic advancement and (2) defense of tradition and religion handed down from previous generations even when such traditions and religion are harmful to the mental and spiritual welfare of the individual. A societal construct based on a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg_(Star_Trek)">Borg mentality or Hive mind</a> is the world that the majority inhabit and believe to be the real world. A Hive Mind is a must for unquestioning acceptance of authority, Economic (the boss), Political (government leaders) and Religious (leaders of religion). The hive mind is growing exponentially these days in order to fulfill the prophesied ‘One Mind’ of the whole world united against God that precedes the return of Jesus Christ to this planet. O yes, He is returning, whether a single person on the earth believes it or not is of little consequence.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=rev%2017&amp;version=KJV">Revelation 17:13:</a> These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woQZYhAxS90&amp;feature=player_embedded">hive mind has to be cultivated</a> and how far it has progressed in this age of technology can be seen from ads such as this one from the UK.</p>
<p>A Borg mentality is not from God and there is an in built aversion to such a Huxleyian nightmarish lifestyle, an aversion built by God Himself into our person. Therefore such mentalities have to be enforced; enforced by those who set themselves up as authorities. Human authorities are all self – serving, and not at all concerned with the welfare of the individual; this may seem like a blanket statement but the evidence of past history and of modern times allows no other conclusion to be drawn. For the purpose of enforcing the hive mind, there are written and unwritten, spoken and unspoken threats or consequences that keep the individual fearful and therefore a compliant, if not willing, part of the System.  People uphold the System not because they are firm believers in it but rather because they are fearful of the consequences if they oppose it. These consequences can be deadly as evidenced in <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-5.html">part 5</a>, so the fears are real not just imaginary in many cases.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The Third Heaven.</strong></span></p>
<p>So who is the author, the architect of this Matrix, this System that keeps people bound to it for their whole life as if they had been permanently glued to it? In the movie, the architects of the Matrix were sentient machines. I question the movie’s premise of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence">‘Sentient Machines’</a>, machines that were‘<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Conscious</span>’, and therefore became the opponents of mankind. I doubt very much that any machine can be made sentient or conscious such as the computer HAL in the movie <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU4TQ1NTo50">2001: A Space Odyssey</a>, at least not by man. How the machines became sentient and conscious is not explained in the film or in other movies such as <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lW0F1sccqk">‘Blade Runner’</a>.  The origins of Sentience is not the subject of this article but I would contend that only God has the power and knowledge to create ‘Conscious’ beings, beings that have a ‘Soul’, but I will leave that discussion for another time.</p>
<p>Nonetheless it is true that there exist intelligences that permeate not only our planet but the entire Universe. This concept is well illustrated in the Bible that there are at least <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Three Heavens</span> that have varying degrees of power and energies, intelligences and minds working within them. These heavens may co – exist in the same physical space but in different dimensions. The following boundaries assigned to the first two ‘heavens’ are somewhat arbitrary. The Third Heaven as in the abode ofJehovah God (literally JEHOVAH ELOHIM) exists beyond the bounds of the physical Universe. As an aside, the Bible teaches that there are many ‘Elohim’ (gods) that are identified by their personal names such as <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Numbers+22:41&amp;version=KJV">Baal</a>, <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus+18:20-22&amp;version=KJV">Molech</a>, <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+19:24&amp;version=KJV">Diana</a> (queen of heaven),  <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+14:11-13&amp;version=KJV">Jupiter</a>, <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+14:11-13&amp;version=KJV">Mercury</a> and many others that are mentioned in the Bible itself. Mythologies are filled with the names of millions more, it is nearly impossible to record the appellations or titles of the gods or the elohim of all nations and cultures. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Jehovah Elohim</span> or the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">LORD God</span> is unique in that He is the Creator of all, including the other elohim. Everyone, whether gods or man, are His creation and subservient to Him, and exist to serve His purposes. There is only one Jehovah (who is Jesus Christ in his incarnated form) and must not be confused with Buddha or Shiva or Mohammed or any other being.</p>
<p>The Three ‘Heavens’ identified in the Bible may be differentiated and defined as follows:</p>
<p>·         The <span style="text-decoration: underline;">First Heaven</span> is the space immediately surrounding the earth and may be limited to the boundaries of the Solar System. This realm is somewhat unique in that it is here that mortal man interfaces both with God (good) and the devil (evil). This is the realm of Satan and his subordinate spirits.</p>
<p>·         The space surrounding the Solar System stretching to the boundaries of the material Universe would be classified as the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Second Heaven</span>. As discussed in <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-2.html">Part 2</a>, this could be classified as the <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-2.html">Angelic realm</a> from which the Universe of matter is controlled and managed. Angels are not limited to this realm but have access to both the first and third heavens.</p>
<p>·         The Third Heaven is a Celestial city, not necessarily made of matter, which exists beyond the boundaries of the material Universe. This is the abode of Jehovah God who is Jesus Christ in visible form. He is identified as <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/keyword/?search=most+high&amp;searchtype=all&amp;version1=9&amp;spanbegin=1&amp;spanend=73">‘The Most High God’</a>, the Creator of all things (in contrast to creatures that are called gods who inhabit the realm of the first heaven.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Prince of the power of the Air (Cyberspace?).</strong></span></p>
<p>The Real Matrix is a technological construct of the First Heaven which also has many mythological names such as Mount Olympus, Elysian Fields, Hyperborea, Valhalla, Avalon, Devaloka, Swarag, and too many others to catalogue here. Such places are all identified as the abode of the gods from which supernatural beings interact with mortals. Mythologically speaking these so – called ‘gods’ are anthropomorphic beings with greater strength and superior technologies, yet like man they too are mortals, many of them are killed or hurt by other gods in such legends. They seem to be flesh and blood just like man, not necessarily angelic or spirit beings. There seem to be a lot of jealousies and power struggles that go on between these ‘gods’. They are created beings and extensive genealogies exist that tabulate their lineage and ancestry, and therefore their corporeal nature, at least as far as their origin is concerned. It is almost certain that they are no longer flesh and blood but continue to exist as disembodied spirits in another dimension, namely the first heaven.</p>
<p>These ‘gods’ of mythology are the elohim of the Bible; just like ‘man’ is a word that identifies the species of man but personal names identify individuals, so too is ‘elohim’ a word that identifies the species as ‘gods’ but personal names indentify individual elohim. The prince of these gods identified in mythology as Marduk, Zeus, Jupiter, Indra and many other names is identified in the Bible as ‘the prince of the power of the air’ (<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+2:2&amp;version=KJV">Ephesians 2:2</a>), and is none other than the Biblical Satan. There are other rulers or princes that are subordinate to Satan such <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8EA7EbFX4k">The Prince of Persia</a>, which incidentally is also the title of a soon to be released Hollywood movie. Satan is headquartered somewhere above the earth from which he rules his kingdom. The word ‘Air’ as used in <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians+2:2&amp;version=KJV">Ephesians 2:2</a> means Atmosphere and was defined by the Greeks as follows: Air, the celestial air surrounding the earth. The Greeks believed it to be the substance that filled the space between the earth and moon&#8230; Essentially Satan rules the atmosphere, not so much as relating to the body but rather the mind. As described in <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-3.html">part 3</a>of this series there exists an invisible network of intelligent energy that surrounds our planet much like a glass dome around a greenhouse. Just because this network is intelligent does not mean it’s good, on the contrary it is a network of absolute unadulterated evil that contaminates our atmosphere much as radio waves now fill our airwaves. I would contend that Satan’s network also consists of radio waves of a different frequency than say the frequency used to transmit cell phone signals. Nonetheless it a transmission network that transmits intelligent information directly into the minds of people without them being aware of it.</p>
<p>Therefore Satan is the author, the architect of the Real Matrix, a construct that keeps people’s minds focused on the physical plane and the dimension of the first heaven only, unable to see the dimensions beyond where God the Creator dwells in the Light that no man can approach unto, the dimension where <span style="text-decoration: underline;">‘Immortality’</span> has truly been brought to light. If no man can approach the light where immortality is available, how can man find immortality? That question will be answered later butsuffice it is to say that ‘gods’ that are themselves mortal can hardly offer immortality to man.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Timothy+6:16&amp;version=KJV">1 Timothy 6:16</a>: Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Devas or sentient programs?</strong></span></p>
<p>The Satanic hierarchy is a well defined one and as previously discussed in <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-real-matrix-part-3.html">part 3</a> of this series and in the article titled <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2009/09/2012-year-of-dragon.html">‘2012: Year of the Dragon???’</a> there are four levels to this hierarchy as identified in the New Testament book of Colossians. Colossians 3:16: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him&#8230; The four levels are:</p>
<ol>
<li>Thrones (kingdoms), 2. Dominions (lordships), 3. Principalities (ruled by princes), 4. Powers (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numen">numen</a>).</li>
</ol>
<p>In this final segment of the series I will concentrate on the first category of ‘Thrones’ focusing particularly on the kingdom of Satan himself. His is the macro power that enslaves minds corporately, that creates the hive mentality to produce <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borg_(Star_Trek)">borgs</a>, that exist to serve their unseen master from Mount Olympus rather than the Living God who created them, who alone gives them breath without which they cannot even survive.</p>
<p>“In the (error laden – my belief) teachings of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theosophy">Theosophy</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deva_(New_Age)">Devas</a> are regarded as living either in the atmospheres of the planets of the solar system (Planetary Angels) or inside the Sun (Solar Angels) (presumably other planetary systems and stars have their own angels) and they help to guide the operation of the processes of nature such as the process of evolution and the growth of plants; their appearance is reputedly like colored flames about the size of a human. It is believed by Theosophists that devas can be observed when the third eye is activated”.</p>
<p>The preceding quote is from a Wikipedia article of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theosophy">Theosophy</a>, Mme. Helena Blavatsky’s westernized version of ancient Hinduism that spawned Nazism and continues to influence the influential elite of our times. I quoted from this article to prove that since ancient times people’s minds have been kept focused on the powers that dwell in the unseen dimension of the planet’s atmosphere, which the Greeks believed to be Mt. Olympus, a place close to the surface of the earth. In other cultures similar beliefs were prevalent such as Valhalla of Norse mythology, and Devaloka of Hindu mythology. This belief is also to be found in all tribal cultures. Could the first heaven exist only in cyberspace and is cyberspace a dimension of physical space? I believe there is strong evidence to suggest that Satan’s kingdom is a technological construct that consists of sentient programs called ‘daemons’ in technical lingo. The choice of that name by computer programmers and the proliferation of satanic terminology and symbolism in the cyber world is too wide ranging to allow for the possibility of all this being just a coincidence.</p>
<p>The word ‘devas’ in Mme. Blavatsky’s philosophies is the Hindu words for gods. According to theosophists who pattern their ideology on the millennia old philosophies of the Hindus, these devas or gods or elohim reside in the atmospheres of the planets of the solar system. If a dimension of the ‘atmospheres’ is cyberspace, a technological construct, then the Matrix being a computer generated program is more than probable. Biblically speaking the Theosophists understanding of ‘intelligent’ beings inhabiting a dimension of our atmosphere is not entirely incorrect with the caveat that the headquarters of evil are almost certainly close to the surface of the Earth not the other planets. The ‘devas’ that Mme. Blavatsky speaks so highly of are to be avoided like the plague, being as they are ancient evil beings that have plagued mankind since man was formed on the earth. What has not been understood these past 3000 plus years is that these creatures, whether called devas or gods or elohim or more appropriately devils, these creature use advanced technology to weave their web of deceit, the Matrix that has been carefully crafted for the masses to blind them from the truth.</p>
<p>“It is asserted by Theosophists that all of the above mentioned beings possess <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etheric_body">etheric bodies</a> that are composed of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etheric_plane">etheric matter</a>, a type of matter finer and more pure that is composed of smaller particles than ordinary <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter">physical plane matter</a>. This contention of theosophists is a scientific one; Satan and his countless subordinate spirits made of etheric matter are able to inhabit the same space as man but in another dimension (cyberspace), and therefore they manage to remain invisible. There exist dimensions of technology, computer technologies that are far more sophisticated than hardwired computers; this fact is becoming easier to understand as we graduate from CRT to LCD to 3D to holographic displays. These technologies will strip the cloak of invisibility and reveal to man the wizards behind the curtain that have wrought wanton destruction and brought untold misery to the world for eons. Yet the world will not see them for who they really are; for even when the cloak has been removed, the mask will remain and people will continue to worship them as benevolent gods, do homage to them and seek their blessings. Asking Satan for blessings is like wading into the water to ask a crocodile for food&#8230;</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The Cyber kingdom of the first heaven.</strong></span></p>
<p>Satan’s kingdom is very sophisticated, far more technologically advanced than any of man’s edifices or man’s technologies. Think not of Satan’s messengers as little red creatures with horns and pointy trident tails; rather think of them as scientists in lab coats working in level 4 and 5 Bio labs constructed of steel and glass. Scientists that employ advanced computer technologies that do not require hard wired hardware. Picture the virtual computer monitors and keyboards that are popping up in popular entertainment and science fiction such as in the movie <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRdxXPV9GNQ">Avatar</a>. The day is not far off when the hardware will appear in the ether in front of us, as if by magic. However as discussed in the article, <a href="http://apocalypse2010.blogspot.com/2010/03/technology-of-magic.html">The Technology of Magic</a>, there really is no magic, just advanced technology. Much like a computer, people too have something like an IP address, a unique identifier that makes it possible for their mind to be  controlled by an external power with the knowledge of how to access it. Using such advanced hypnotic and hypnotizing technologies, Satan and his scientists can target individuals and groups of people with their sophisticated mind conditioning programs. This is how they have kept mankind in submission by blinding their minds to the truth of the dimensions that lie beyond the visible heavens, where God dwells in pure Light that needs no sun or moon or stars to shine, the Light that is God.</p>
<p>These satanic ethereal scientists have highly advanced ‘ethereal’ communications based control and command centres from which they run the world. The communication is based on direct interfacing with humans; for the past 3500 years or so, after the tower of Babel, direct communication was limited to the ‘Elites’, both royalty and priesthood. The priesthood was the main conduit through which the will of the satanic ‘devas’ was transmitted to the royalty that then passed edicts that brutally and totally controlled the lives of the masses. The Elites are first and foremost a priesthood of Satan, who confers on them worldly wealth and power as he attempted to do with Jesus. The following scriptures reveal the fact that worldly power and riches are conferred by Satan on those who bow down to him and worship him which Jesus refused unhesitatingly because He was well acquainted with Heavenly eternal riches and could never be tempted with earthly trinkets that the world considers to be wealth.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=luke%204&amp;version=KJV">Luke 4: 5 – 7: </a>5. And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. 7. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.</p>
<p>The principle of worldly power originating from Satan is also confirmed by mythology and history. The following quote is from a Wikipedia article on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(classical_mythology)">Daemon</a> (alternately spelled Demon): “After the time of Plato, in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_cult">Hellenistic ruler-cult</a> that began with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_the_Great">Alexander</a> himself, it was not the ruler but hisguiding daemon that was venerated, for in Hellenistic times, the daimon was external to the man whom it inspired and guided, who was &#8220;possessed&#8221; by this motivating spirit. Similarly, the first-century Romans began by venerating the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius">genius</a> of Augustus, a distinction that blurred in time. The word ‘Genius’ which has an entirely different connotation nowadays, originally had a different meaning and etymology. In Ancient Rome, the genius was the guiding or &#8220;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tutelary">tutelary</a>&#8221; <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit">spirit</a> of a person, or even of an entire <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gens">gens</a>, the plural of which was &#8216;genii’.” It is not without reason that computer programs that run in the background, most often without direct knowledge of the users are calledDAEMONS, they are technical entities, the technical aspects of whose influence on human affairs is only now becoming obvious as we gain better understanding of technology. It is not without reason that very intelligent or perceived intelligent people like Einstein are called GENIUS, they all have a genie, a spirit, and intelligence that are not native to them but enter them from outside. How does this happen? In computer parlance, the man and his daemon interface through the medium of language, a program or code that may or not be verbal.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Runes and other symbols as computer codes.</strong></span></p>
<p>Contrary to popular belief, when priests of darkness engage in occult rituals as for example the Masonic rituals shown in the new <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMmUSTKT9j8">Sherlock Holmes</a> movie, it is not the person that is invoking the devil to do his bidding; rather it is the devil using the person to interface with the world of matter to have flesh and blood do his bidding. This is the reason why the occult worlds, both ancient and modern, were big on symbols, for these symbols are computer keys that unlock dimensional gateways as shown in the Matrix movie. In a very literal sense the ether all around us is a massive computer program with many back doors into dimensions that are not accessible to the average person. Just as Neo entered through a back door to see the oracle, and needed the key master (the symbolist) to provide the appropriate computer key strokes, the correct combination of letters and / or numbers to get to the Architect, so too in our world does Satan train wizards, sorcerers, shamans, magicians, astrologers and nowadays computer geeks with the knowledge of occult language such as runes to use them to interface with the natural world. Being a disembodied spirit, Satan uses corporeal creatures, primarily man but even animals to do his evil bidding. This is the reason why in almost all cultures, ancient and modern, permanent marking (tattooing), and / or painting of the body, particularly the face is so prevalent, the body itself becomes like a keyboard that Satanic spirits use to interface with the natural world. This interfacing of man and spirit is being taken to a whole new level through the medium of online video games. A whole new breed of <span style="text-decoration: underline;">TECHNO – SORCERERS</span> is being trained; this movement was given a major push through the movie <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRdxXPV9GNQ">Avatar</a> in which a human interfaces with a machine and becomes a daemon.  The definition of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar_(computing)">Avatar</a> as it relates to the field of role playing video games is too vast a subject too be addressed here but will be discussed in detail in the near future. A recent bestseller work of fiction titled <a href="http://thedaemon.com/">Daemon by author Daniel Suarez</a> is a real eye opener on this subject.</p>
<p>To further gain a visual perspective of the technological aspects of Satan’s kingdom, take a look at the following trailer for the TV program, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQoSCEMzJYE">V: the series</a>. The premise of this series is that a race of reptilians arrive on Earth and portray themselves as beneficiaries of mankind. Man does not see them in their true form as hideous serpentine, dragon, lizard like creatures out to mercilessly devour mankind. No, they disguise themselves as smartly dressed humans exuding knowledge and power. They arrive in massive spacecraft that are marvels of technology and hover over all the major cities of the world from where they plan to enslave and rule mankind. This is actually not far from the truth with the exception that the ‘reptilians’ whose head is Satan have been on earth even longer than man. These spaceships are not going to arrive from Alpha Centauri or any other constellation; they are already here except they are cloaked to the human eye. Large spacecraft like structures sit above every major city in the world from which sophisticated instructions are transmitted to the surface through the human interfaces, mostly the rich and powerful people of the world. In exchange for providing these human subjects wealth and power, Satan gets what he wants which is blood, lots of it. This is why violence never ceases on the planet. Not just individual violence but corporate violence, whether between nations, or between factions in nations or by governments against citizens. The price for power has to be paid and that price is blood. War is a very unproductive and costly activity, even for the victors; so in reality there are no winners in war except the small minority of elites who increase their power and wealth through war, even at the expense of the lives of millions of their own countrymen. And yes we ought not to forget the other beneficiary, Satan, who drinks the rivers of blood that is shed as a result of war. If man truly was in control, don’t you think we would have figured it out by now that war is the most unprofitable activity on the planet? Like the V spaceships, Satan has his castles hovering overhead, and it may well be the shape and size of these craft that we see in Sci-fi movies and TV programs.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The DarkNet (fiction or the Real World?).</strong></span></p>
<p>In the days to come the human – devil interfacing will become much more simplified as technologies arrive that humans will interface with directly; they are already here not just mainstream yet. The internet is a web, a honeycomb of millions of computers worldwide linked in cyberspace. Satan’s web which is far more pervasive is the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darknet">DARKNET</a>. The computers in this darknet are humans themselves, and the programs that drive them are the daemons, far greater in number than there are people on the planet. The web of this DarkNet will cast its shadow longer and wider than at any time in the past, and the result will be loss of life on an unimaginable scale. Rest assured that there will be very sophisticated technologies that are being employed and that will be employed to bring about the mass culling of humanity. It is only because man is being given these technologies that originate with the dark lord that we are now becoming aware of how the Matrix has controlled and governed mankind and this world for thousands of years. It is not without reason that Satan is called the god of this world. He is the god because he controls the governments of this world by absolutely controlling their leaders as detailed in this series. Man’s leaders in the highest positions of power and wealth are not only aware of the god of the world; they actively curry his favour for the material benefits he bestows upon them. The rest of humanity is controlled more subtly by enforcing the hive mind / Borg mentality upon them.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Conclusion.</strong></span></p>
<p>In conclusion to this series I would like to encourage readers that though the DarkNet of technological wizardry works tirelessly to keep man’s mind blinded to higher truth, to literally keep him Earthbound, the good news is that the Most High of his own will reaches down to the lowest and weakest among us to give them a position of honour and immortality through faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus is not restricted to the first heaven, He is the Maker of all creation and is far far above all other creatures, He draws us as individuals to trust and believe in Him, and He demonstrated His love for us by giving His own life. No wizard, sorcerer, shaman, astrologer, pundit, guru or deva or tech genius can take us where He dwells, only He can.</p>

I understand that this subject will be new to most readers and therefore I request that you take time to digest this information and do some research on it. Role playing online games that generate ‘Avatars’ for players are far too real to not have basis in reality. I will be writing more on this subject of The Technology of Reality in the days and months ahead.</p>
<p>This concludes the ‘What is the real Matrix’ series but it goes without saying that we have only begun to scratch the surface where the role of technology, past and present, in shaping reality is concerned.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/2010/05/20/plan-destroy-america/">I have a plan to destroy America</a></p><p><strong>By Richard D. Lamm</strong></p>
<p><strong>Editor’s note: In 2004, Richard D. Lamm, former governor of Colorado, addressed a conference sponsored by the Federation for American Immigration Reform in Washington That speech is presented below.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/mexifornia211.jpg#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-12877" style="margin: 10px;" title="mexifornia2" src="http://westernfrontamerica.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/mexifornia211.jpg" alt="" width="107" height="161" /></a>I have a secret plan to destroy America. If you believe, as many do, that America is too smug, too white bread, too self-satisfied, too rich, let’s destroy America. It is not <em>that</em> hard to do. History shows that nations are more fragile than their citizens think. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and they all fall, and that “an autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.” Here is my plan:</p>
<p>1) We must first make America a bilingual-bicultural country. History shows, in my opinion, that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. One scholar, Seymour Martin Lipset, put it this way: “The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension and tragedy. Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon – all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with its Basques, Bretons and Corsicans.”</p>
<p>2) I would then invent “multiculturalism” and encourage immigrants to maintain their own culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal: that there are no cultural differences that are important. I would declare it an article of faith that the black and Hispanic dropout rate is only due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out-of-bounds.</p>
<p>3) We can make the United States a “Hispanic Quebec” without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently, “The apparent success of our own multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved, not by tolerance, but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentrically, and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.” I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with a salad bowl metaphor. It is important to insure that we have various cultural sub-groups living in America reinforcing their differences, rather than Americans emphasizing their similarities.</p>
<p>4) Having done all this, I would make our fastest-growing demographic group the least educated – I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated and antagonistic to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50 percent dropout rate from school.</p>
<p>5) I would then get the big foundations and big business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of victimology. I would get all minorities to think their lack of success was all the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority population.</p>
<p>I would establish dual citizenship and promote divided loyalties. I would “celebrate diversity.” “Diversity” is a wonderfully seductive word. It stresses differences rather than commonalities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other – that is, when they are not killing each other. A “diverse,” peaceful or stable society is against most historical precedent. People undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together, and we can take advantage of this myopia.</p>
<p>6) Look at the ancient Greeks. Dorf’s “World History” tells us: “The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed a common language and literature; and they worshiped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic Games in honor of Zeus, and all Greeks venerated the shrine of Apollo at Delphi. A common enemy, Persia, threatened their liberty. Yet, all of these bonds together were not strong enough to overcome two factors … (local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions …)” If we can put the emphasis on the “<em>pluribus</em>,” instead of the “<em>unum</em>,” we can balkanize America as surely as Kosovo.</p>
<p>7) Then I would place all these subjects off-limits – make it taboo to talk about. I would find a word similar to “heretic” in the 16th century – that stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like “racist”, “xenophobe” halt argument and conversation. Having made America a bilingual-bicultural country, having established multiculturalism, having the large foundations fund the doctrine of “victimology,” I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra – “because immigration has been good for America, it must always be good.” I would make every individual immigrant sympatric and ignore the cumulative impact.</p>
<p>Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hanson’s book “Mexifornia” – this book is dangerous; it exposes my plan to destroy America. So please, please – if you feel that America deserves to be destroyed – please, please – don’t buy this book! This guy is on to my plan.</p>
<p>“The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum.” – Noam Chomsky.</p>

However, coming in high on the list of the Third Reich&#8217;s atrocities was its use of state power to undermine the most basic of human rights and the subordination of all other social institutions to the prerogatives of the Party. In “Life In The Hitler Youth” by Jennifer Keeley, the reader learns of the Nazi subversion of the family and realizes the disturbing parallels that can be drawn with developments unfolding in our own nation.</p>
<p>According to Keeley, all of German life (including the minutest detail of one&#8217;s personal life) was brought under Nazi control through the policy of Gleichschaltung or coordination so that all of society and culture reflected National Socialism (9). As such, the 1936 Law Concerning The Hitler Youth decreed that all of German youth were to be incorporated under the banner of this organization.</p>
<p>Most Americans would probably marvel how all these things unfolded in Germany and take comfort thinking the same sort of thing could not happen in the United States. However, then reading “Life In The Hitler Youth”, one comes away with an uneasiness in the pit of the stomach when one realizes the similarities of the philosophies justifying a number of the programs in Nazi Germany and the United States of America.</p>
<p>Many will be outraged by such a statement. And though the United States is nothing like Nazi Germany in terms of destroying innocent human lives (at least in regards of those making it out of the womb without being hacked to pieces), if Americans do not now get a hold of certain ideological trends festering below the surface of public policy, the nation could very easily find it self sliding in this kind of downward direction.</p>
<p>In both the Nazi and secular progressiveist systems, it is not so much the individual created in the image of God protected by a set of unchanging eternal laws that matters but rather the larger group that counts. For as much as the word “community” is used in “Life In The Hitler Youth”, one could end up thinking one was reading the press releases of the national service proposals of either the Democratic or Republican parties. For example, the 1936 Law Concerning The Hitler Youth read in part, &#8220;The whole of German youth is to be educated, outside the parental home and school, in the Hitler Youth physically, intellectually, and morally in the spirit of National Socialism for service to the nation and community (16).”</p>
<p>Often, justification for the Hitler Youth was couched in language that would not be al that foreign to our own ears. As evidenced in one of Hitler’s speeches: “learn&#8230;that life for you must mean sacrifice, sacrifice of your personal freedom, sacrifice of your free time, sacrifice of many of the small pleasures of life; sacrifices when you take on yourself charges, not for the individual, not for yourself alone&#8230;but for your small, and yet so great community (39).” Ladies and gentleman, have we not heard as of late the word “sacrifice” on the lips of another aspiring demagogue that has irrationally mesmerized the dupable masses?</p>
<p>Sophisticates will groan that Hitler Youth programs were compulsory while Obama’s are voluntary (at least for now anyway). Eventually, it was indeed compulsory to join the Hitler Youth; however, the communalist rhetoric justifying such is worthy of Amitai Etzioni.</p>
<p>In much the same way the national service proposals brought before Congress and the American people claim to be voluntary, some of the service required of German youth was not explicitly obligatory but mandated anyway. Keeley writes,<br />
“To teach Hitler Youth the importance of their Volk community, the National Socialists suggested members participate in a form of land service. Although not obligated to do so by any mandate or decree, every year young people &#8230; were expected to help the Volk community&#8230;This was designed to teach young people about putting the needs of the community before their own (40).”</p>
<p>The objective of such programs &#8212; be they either in a dictatorship or even in a representative democracy &#8212; is ultimately to undermine the loyalty of its participants in regards to other authorities such as family or religion and to replace it with an absolute fealty to the organs of the state. In pursuit of this goal, a number of policies were implemented to get the young away from what would likely have been moderating and counterbalancing influences.</p>
<p>Though always of maniacal intentions, the first phase of this program was seemingly innocuous enough as it consisted of scheduling so many activities and meetings that the good Nazi family had to take part in that they were basically kept running around, away from one another, and unable to reflect more critically about what they were being lured into. This wasn&#8217;t really all that much different than what is going on in many of these Emergent and Purpose Driven megachurches these days where activities and meetings are scheduled multiple nights per week and it is insinuated you are less than an ideal Christian if you only show up for the traditional scheduled Sunday and perhaps Wednesday services.</p>
<p>Those running afoul of National Socialist authorities underwent a process of scrutiny by the social service agencies of that day in a manner those under suspicions other than quantifiable physical abuse in our own time could relate to. Parents refusing to go along with the Hitler Youth agenda could have their children taken away on the grounds of being “politically unreliable” (the old term for politically incorrect). One might say such parents failed to have their children “properly socialized”, a term often invoked by those opposing home and private forms of education.</p>
<p>Common to all forms of socialism &#8212; be they the Communist, Fascistic, or even more democratic and less blatantly homicidal varieties &#8212; is the aspiration to so totally order the existences of those living under these systems that the state comes to take the place once reserved for God in the hearts of the people. Unlike Communism that was blatantly atheistic early on, the Nazis were a bit more sly in their manipulations to get Germans to unseat the Lord as the supreme authority in their hearts.</p>
<p>Keeley writes, “Finally, the Nazis attempted to replace Christianity with National Socialist ideology in the lives of youth. Some National Socialists expressed discontent with the so-called Jewish roots of Christianity&#8230;The Nazis began to remove symbols, such as the cross, from schools (57).” Sounds like a move straight out of the ACLU playbook.</p>
<p>An example of the extent to which the Nazis would go to accomplish this objective was epitomized by a prayer children were required to recite in order to receive a free school lunch (a form of welfare also prominent in our public schools today): “Fuehrer, my Fuehrer, bequeathed to me by the Lord, protect and preserve me as long as I live. Thou hast rescued Germany from deepest distress. I thank thee for my daily bread. Abideth thou long with me, forsaketh me not, Fuehrer my Fuehrer, my faith and my light. Heil mein Fuehrer (58).”</p>
<p>With President Obama regularly refusing to speak with the name of and images pertaining to Christ in the background in a manner similar to the way a vampire cringes before a cross and with Youtube videos of songs such as “Sanctuary” being applied to him that should only be applied to Jesus, it is only a few short steps until the word “Fuehrer” is replaced with “Barack” in that blasphemous invocation.</p>
<p>From her work as an historian in this particular publication, one cannot decipher the politics of Jennifer Keeley regarding the election and administration of Barack Obama. However, if allowed to speak for themselves, the facts and truths of history as chronicled in “Life In The Hitler Youth” serve as a warning no freedom loving American can afford to ignore.</p>
