"...Not majority rule but just rule;" a lost concept in modern day democracy

"...not majority rule but just rule: All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." 

- Thomas Jefferson

Billions of petrodollars flood into Egypt post military coup, so who needs democracy anyway?

I was never a Muhammed Morsi fan but to uproot a democratic institution without following the normal and proper conventions of a government is just ludicrous, and it goes to show that the Egyptian military is an institution beholden NOT to the people as they Egyptian people might think, but in reality to a 'foreign' entity. The sooner the people realize this, the better they can control the outcome. The Egyptian army has always protected itself at any cost and will do the bidding of others as its strings are pulled to and fro. No matter what else occurs in Egypt in terms of a government, the military will always be there as a watchdog ready to obey it`s master`s orders. And of course, lets not forget it`s military financing and budget...that it`s wholly dependent on. Finally, what can one say about the Persian Gulf nations...no self identity whatsoever. They who hate and abhor democracy, pumped into Egypt a staggering $12 billion all in a single month, chump change when compared to what was 'given' to Cairo post-Mubarak.

Its funny in retrospect when you think to President Obama`s 2009 Cairo speech, where he declared, “No system of government can or should be imposed upon one nation by another,..."

Our wise Founding Father George Washington`s farewell address sums up accurately our current state of affairs concerning our diplomatic and military commitment to virtually the entire world. “Nothing is more essential,” Washington said, “than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded.”

“The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave,” he added. “It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest.” What ominous words from our founding father, who sadly is ridiculed by our government officials as being 'un-American.'

Egyptian army’s financial coup: 12 billion petrodollars from Saudi, UAE, Kuwaiti fans
DEBKAfile
July 10, 2013

In a dazzling display of monetary muscle, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates poured $8 billion in a single day into the coffers of Egypt’s army rulers in cash, grants, loans without interest and gifts of gas, a dizzying life-saving infusion into its tottering economy. Forking out sums on this scale in a single day – or even month - is beyond the capacity of almost every world power – even the US and Russia - in this age of economic distress. The Arab oil colossuses managed to dwarf Iran’s pretensions to the standing of regional power.
Tuesday, July 9, just six days after the Egyptian army overthrew the Muslim Brotherhood president Mohamed Morsi, a UAE delegation of foreign and energy ministers and national security adviser landed in Cairo. They came carrying the gifts of $1 billion as a grant and $2 billion in long-term credit.

In well-orchestrated moves, Saudi Arabia then stepped forward with a $5 billion package, of which a lump sum of $2 billion was drafted to Egypt’s state bank that day, followed by another $2 billion as a gift of Saudi gas, and a further $1 billion for propping up the sagging Egyptian currency.

The delivery by two Arab governments to a third of financial assistance on this scale and on a single day is unheard of in the Middle East, or, indeed, anywhere else.

As they celebrate Ramadan, 84 million Egyptians can start looking forward to a square meal at the end of their month of fasting.

This river of largesse was the outcome of a development first revealed by DEBKAfile last week: The Egyptian military high command was not working alone when its operations headquarters put together the July 3 takeover of power from the Muslim Brotherhood; it was coordinated closely down to the last detail with the palaces of the Saudi and UAE rulers and the operations rooms of their intelligence services.

The last DEBKA Weekly issue 594 (July 5) carried details of the military-intelligence mechanism at work between the three governments.

The coming issue, out next Friday, July 12, offers further revelations of how this mechanism is designed to shore up Egypt’s post-coup regime and restore the strife-torn country, the most populous in the Arab world, to its traditional eminence. Cairo is assigned a lead role in a Sunni Muslim bloc stretching from the Gulf to Cairo (with room for quiet collaboration with Israel) to withstand the challenges posed by the alliance of Russia, Iran, Syria and the Lebanese Hizballah.

The petrodollar shower for Egypt did not end with the $8 billion from Saudi Arabia and the UAE: Kuwait has pledged another $5 billion - later amended to $4 billion - in a secret communication to Riyadh. It will be released after the sheikhdom's parliamentary elections on July 27, and so raise total Gulf Arab bounty to Egypt to the staggering total of $12 billion.
Friendly assistance on this scale tends to diminish the relevance of Washington’s dilemmas over the continuation of its $1.3 billion aid package to Egypt after a military coup, of which $700 million is due this year.

The suggestion that US aid may be used to hasten Egypt’s “swift return to a democratically elected civilian government” loses its force when Saudi Arabia and the UAE have both guaranteed to make up any shortfalls in US aid to Egypt.

On June 26, Syrian Deputy Prime Minister Kadri Jamil boasted that Moscow, Beijing and Tehran were contributing half a billion dollars per month to Syria’s war chest. “It’s not so bad to have Russia, China and Iran on your side,” he gloated.

Egypt can now boast to have far outstripped Syria in foreign support - $12 billion in a single month, compared with a mere $6 billion in a year.

We celebrate the Fourth of July, but do we ask WHY we salute the red, white and blue and WHERE it came from?

Why the U.S. Flag is Red, White and Blue
By Nicole Greenstein

Every Fourth of July, we flaunt Uncle Sam hats, wave our flag, and watch fireworks shoot sparks into the night sky. But many never even stop to ask the question, “Why does America salute the red, white and blue?”

On June 14, 1777 in Philadelphia, the Marine Committee of the Second Continental Congress adopted a resolution that read the following: “Resolved, that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field representing a new constellation.”

And with these words, the Stars and Stripes were born. Yet the resolution never said a word about the significance behind the choice of red, white and blue. And for good reason. The three colors did not have any official meaning when the flag was adopted in 1777.

The colors and their significance still trace back to the birth of the country, and had very specific meanings in the creation of the Great Seal a year earlier. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution authorizing a committee to develop a seal for the country. The committee was instructed to draw up a seal that reflected the Founding Fathers’ beliefs and values, as well as the sovereignty of the new nation. Red, white and blue were chosen, and the Great Seal was officially adopted on June 20, 1782.

Heraldic devices such as seals have specific meanings for each element and color, and the U.S. Seal was no exception. Charles Thomson, Secretary of the Continental Congress, explained the significance to Congress when he presented the seal. “The colors,” Thomson said at the time, “are those used in the flag of the United States of America. White signifies purity and innocence. Red, hardiness & valour, and Blue… signifies vigilance, perseverance & justice.”

Mike Buss, a flag expert with the American Legion, says that the most obvious reason for the flag’s colors is that they were simply taken from our mother country’s flag — the Union Jack of England. “Our heritage does come from Great Britain, and that was some of the thought process that went about in coming up with our flag,” Buss says of the American flag’s red, white and blue. “They come from the three colors that the Founding Fathers had served under or had been exposed to.”

Over the years people have altered Thomson’s original interpretation. Some now say that red represents the blood spilled by the patriots and those who fight to protect our country. President Reagan even put his own spin on the matter when he proclaimed 1986 the Year of the Flag. “The colors of our flag signify the qualities of the human spirit we Americans cherish,” Reagan said. “Red for courage and readiness to sacrifice; white for pure intentions and high ideals; and blue for vigilance and justice.”

The significance behind the flag’s design is more commonly known than that of its colors. The 50 stars stand for America’s 50 states, while the 13 red and white stripes represent the 13 colonies. But there’s also a lesser-known interpretation for the Stars and Stripes. The House of Representatives’ 1977 book about the flag states: “The star is a symbol of the heavens and the divine goal to which man has aspired from time immemorial; the stripe is symbolic of the rays of light emanating from the sun.”

Although most Americans today aren’t aware of the specific symbolism behind the flag’s red, white and blue, flag expert Buss is not concerned. Instead, he believes the flag’s power to evoke patriotism and pride after all these years is most important.

“For us veterans, the flag represents why we served,” Buss says. “We were there because the flag represented our freedoms — freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion.”

What Americans ought to know about the Fourth of July but REALLY don`t...

Independence Day, or the Fourth of July, celebrates the adoption by the Continental Congress of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Now on the 237th birthday of the United States, what`s shocking is that most 'Americans' don`t fully know the significance of the Fourth of July, its history, relevance and simply don't know WHY we celebrate the 4th of July or what country we declared independence from. Surprising huh?...

Firstly, the Declaration of Independence wasn’t signed on July 4, 1776...

The Declaration of Independence is the nation's most cherished symbol of liberty and Thomas Jefferson's most enduring monument, since it was he who first wrote a draft of the document between June 11 and June 28, 1776 and was submitted when the Second Continental Congress met. 

    On July 1, 1776, the Second Continental Congress met in Philadelphia, and on the following 
    day 12 of the 13 colonies voted in favor of Richard Henry Lee’s motion for independence. 
    The delegates then spent the next two days debating and revising the language of a 
    statement drafted by Thomas Jefferson.

    On July 4, Congress officially adopted the Declaration of Independence, and as a result the 
    date is celebrated as Independence Day. Nearly a month would go by, however, before the 
    actual signing of the document took place. First, New York’s delegates didn’t officially give 
    their support until July 9 because their home assembly hadn’t yet authorized them to vote in 
    favor of independence. Next, it took two weeks for the Declaration to be “engrossed”—
    written on parchment in a clear hand. Most of the delegates signed on August 2, but several
    —Elbridge Gerry, Oliver Wolcott, Lewis Morris, Thomas McKean and Matthew Thornton—
    signed on a later date. (Two others, John Dickinson and Robert R. Livingston, never signed 
    at all.) The signed parchment copy now resides at the National Archives in the Rotunda for 
    the Charters of Freedom, alongside the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Thomas Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence, included eighty-six changes made later by John Adams (1735-1826), Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790), other members of the committee appointed to draft the document, and by Congress. The "original Rough draught" of the Declaration of Independence, one of the great milestones in American history, shows the evolution of the text from the initial composition draft by Jefferson to the final text adopted by Congress on the morning of July 4, 1776

Russia`s answer to countering asteroid threat to the Earth

A Russian scientist has proposed using ICBM`s to fight threats posed by asteroids hitting Earth

This week its been reported that a Russian rocket scientist thinks a Russian ICBM can be used to destroy asteroids that pose a threat to the Earth, specifically the Soviet-era Voyevoda ICBM or NATO classification SS-18 Satan missiles. This news comes four months after a powerful meteor struck Russia’s Urals region, injuring 1,200 people in the area.

Now, the Soviet-era Voyevoda (SS-18 Satan) ICBMs which have been in service since 1967 "...are well-suited for fighting suddenly discovered small [space] objects,” said Sabit Saitgarayev, a senior researcher at the State Rocket Design Center in the city of Miass in the Chelyabinsk Region.

These ICBM`s use the standard liquid fuel based on hydrazine and not the cryogenic fuel used in Russian heavy space rockets like the Soyuz which cannot be kept for long and is supplied directly before the launch. In essence, the latter rocket fuel type requires several days for prepping the rockets for launch and would not be favorable against targets discovered only hours before hitting the Earth.

For this reason, the scientist says the Voyevoda missiles are favorable as they can take off 10-20 minutes after an order is given for launch and are able to "destroy small space objects with a diameter of up to 100 meters if the missile is equipped with the third stage and if reequipped with a booster, the missile will be able to destroy space objects five-six hours before their collision with the Earth", he said.

Currently, the Voyevoda (SS-18 Satan) are 2 staged ICBM`s with a payload capacity of 8.8 tons, that can carry up to 10 warheads, each with a yield up to 750 kilotons (TNT). "The [missiles] can stay in the condition of their readiness for launch for ten and more years, after some reequipping,” the scientist said.

Now, the only other question is, how the vicinity of the asteroid blast with the missiles along with the blast fragments will pose a grave threat to our ever growing number of satellites that orbit the planet as well as the ISS crew in space. This is of concern since when in 2007 China tested a ground-launched anti-satellite weapon and was condemned for it due to the dangers of the thousands of pieces of debris in orbit that continue to threaten both manned and unmanned spacecraft.

The energy system of the Ancients & the mega monolithic builders

[the following is selectively abridged from Carmen Boulter, PhD The Pyramid Code; John Dering, Electromagnetic field theorist; John Burke, Biological Engineer, Robert Schoch, PhD Geologist, Boston Univ & Abd`el Hakim Awyan, Archaeologist, Indigenous wisdom keeper]: 

'Energy' is palpable at ancient Egyptian monolithic sites as well as monolithic sites around the globe. Claude Swanson, physicist, confirms numerous experiments in the last 20 years of research to show a certain type of energy that does not exist in our current science - called subtle energy.

This is a whole new trend of thought in looking at ancient structures, that maybe the ancients understood subtle energies. In the mega monolithic societies of the world, it appears its a type of energy tat existed they used. Monolithic structures harnessed the Earth`s natural varying geo-electromagnetic energy which generates therefore an electric current - called Telluric currents - of which these subtle energies passes along invisible lines around the globe. Certain types of geologies like dolomite limestone and granite magnify those energies several fold, and evidence shows the megalithic builders situated their structures around these lines and areas. Ancient scared sites and temples globally were always built along these lines. 

These subtle energies worked in conjunction with underground limestone aquifers (porous bearing rock), where the flow of water through the layers of rock from rainfall or rising rivers would generate electrical ground current and a magnetic field. Megalithic builders designed their structures and built them in such a way as to further concentrate those energies, so they definitely seem to have known what they were doing.  

Invisible subtle energy occurs around us all the time and is measurable by science.

When you look back at how sacred sites were chosen, buildings like the pyramids that were constructed, the suspicion arises they understood quite a lot more about this stuff than we do and may have been using it in their engineering.

The Energy of Today and of the Ancients

...We turn a blind eye to the ancients with our modern day hubris, but could they have been far smarter than us?

[the following is selectively abridged from Carmen Boulter, PhD The Pyramid Code & Abd`el Hakim Awyan, Archaeologist, Indigenous wisdom keeper]: 

Between 1901-1917, the Tesla tower was built in Long Island, NY by Nikola Tesla as a wireless broadcasting system for telephone and electrical signals. It was constructed upon an aquifer with descending passageways and tunnels beneath it. At the time few understood how it all 

worked. Tesla`s funding was ultimately dropped by JP Morgan because Tesla wanted the 

wireless electricity to be FREE and therefore JP Morgan couldn`t make a profit. Tesla was 

driven into obscurity...

The energy to create free wireless energy has always existed on our planet and still exists today.

The energy of the ancients was based on an 'implosion' model. It was completely a passive energy that doesn`t pollute, that has no by-products. 

Modern day energy is based on the 'explosion' model. The energy we use today is by combustion and non-renewable; energy that leaves exhaust and pollution.

Implosion energy like solar and wind is clean and renewable. We need sustainable renewable energy as we march forward into the future. In a nutshell, the implosion energy of the ancients, all you need is a ray of sun on running water. Underneath the Great Pyramid and Giza Complex, there are underground limestone aquifers and evidence of man-made tunnels full of water connected to the Nile river. In ancient times, the pyramids and the networks of underground water tunnels generated energy in the form of electric ground current that the ancient Egyptian people used. The idea would be the falling and rising of the Nile that would produce this electric ground current by moving through the different layers of the underground limestone aquifer rising up through the pyramid. 

The Giza Power Plant theory proposed by Christopher Dunn through volumes of evidence, suggest the Great pyramid of Giza and the whole Giza complex produced energy by this method - the implosion model of energy. The pyramids were power generators. However, now in modern times the pyramids no longer produce energy since the pyramid[s] are stripped of their outer casing stones and the secret knowledge and technology were lost throughout the ages. Catastrophes around the world 'decommissioned' some of these sites - some went off-line like a power plant. The 'spiritual granaries' eventually went out, - 'the street light went out;' the original knowledge got lost and the later builders were building out of ego and not the good of humanity. They were no longer engines to feed the the people. 

Optimistically stated by Carmen Boulter, "I wonder if the original knowledge, the few people who knew the secrets to the energy connection between the pyramids didn`t die off. We don`t have the technology to build the pyramids now exactly the way they were built - not even close. We are the most evolved we`ve ever been and that is one of the blinders that has stopped us from imagining the ancients could have been far smarter than us. As long as we think we are more advanced than we`ve ever been, we are blind to the technologies with subtle energies."

Its fair to conclude with the wise words of Abd`el Hakim Awyan, "It`s not fair to deny what we can`t touch or see with your own hand."

NY bill proposed to charge you with a felony for 'annoying' a NYPD cop - the police state gets bigger

NY Senate passes Bill that would make annoying a cop a felony
Bill would basically allow police to arrest based on their own subjective impulses

by Adan Salazar
Infowars.com
June 6, 2013

Lawmakers in New York may have jumped the shark with their latest police protection bill.
New York Senate Bill 2402 would effectively make it a class E felony to “annoy” so-called peace officers.

The bill, in part, reads:

      A PERSON IS GUILTY OF AGGRAVATED HARASSMENT OF A POLICE OFFICER OR    
      PEACE OFFICER WHEN, WITH THE INTENT TO HARASS, ANNOY, THREATEN OR 
      ALARM A PERSON WHOM HE OR SHE KNOWS OR REASONABLY SHOULD KNOW 
      TO BE A POLICE OFFICER OR PEACE OFFICER ENGAGED IN THE COURSE OF 
      PERFORMING HIS OR HER OFFICIAL DUTIES, HE OR SHE STRIKES, SHOVES, KICKS 
      OR OTHERWISE SUBJECTS SUCH PERSON TO PHYSICAL CONTACT.

According to WIVB, Sen. Joe Griffo, one of the original sponsors of the bill, defended it and the all-important police state arguing, “Police officers who risk their lives every day in our cities and on our highways deserve every possible protection, and those who treat them with disrespect, harass them and create situations that can lead to injuries deserve to pay a price for their actions.”

Besides the otherwise lame attempt to justify a bill that in essence gives police free rein to claim physical annoyance, there is no actual explanation given for creating such a bill.

If signed into law, offenders would be subjected to the same penalties as other class E felonies like “placing a false bomb or hazardous substance” in a public place, and “riot in the first degree.” This is the lowest felony charge in New York, but can still carry a penalty of up to 4 years imprisonment, depending on the judge’s decision.

Given the fact that police almost universally disapprove of those who dare film them, little effort is needed to imagine them citing the bill’s content as justification for their arrest of citizen journalists like We Are Change’s Luke Rudkowski, who routinely gets into confrontations with police, or our own intrepid Infowars reporter Dan Bidondi, who it could be argued “harassed” authorities at the Boston Marathon press conferences when they had to physically touch him.

In addition, the bill virtually welcomes and protects police who would provoke citizens into any kind of spat, as, under the vague language of the bill, any physical “harassment” can be deemed unlawful.

RT also noted how questionable laws were increasingly being cited by police in their own defense, noting the example of New York homeowner Emily Good, who was arrested by police in Rochester “while standing in her yard and videotaping police officers who were performing a traffic stop in front of her house.”

“When Good insisted on her right to stand in her yard, she was arrested, handcuffed, and taken away in a police car. She was later charged with obstructing governmental administration.” Police told Good they didn’t feel safe with her standing behind them recording.

Recently we also witnessed a 14-year-old in Florida get slammed to the ground and put in a choke hold for what amounted to little more than throwing police “dehumanizing stares.”

In essence, the bill, if passed, would allow police to arrest according to their own subjective impulses.

The emergence of the Soviet Union into the 21st century

The words 'Soviet Union' here in America conjures up feelings of Stalinist pride, Lenin, the cold war, Red commies, over opulent Russian oligarchs and the KGB but...in fact no one ever thinks of the accomplishments made by USSR during the Soviet Era.  - A personal favorite of mine is in terms of space exploration. We all know, if it wasn`t for the successes of Soviet Union in space, America and specifically NASA would have never got the foot off the ground. The once mighty USSR in its heyday heralded cutting edge technology of its time and the sheer scale of audacity surely dominated the eastern hemisphere and scared the West, who no undoubtedly 'rejoiced as its formidable enemy was brought to its knees.'

As can be seen recently in the past few years, Vladmir Putin, the current Russian President is bringing some of Russia`s 'Soviet Era' groove back. Russia has become a major power player and power broker in the shaky world of world politics; a force to reckon with now and forever. Its an ideal check to the 'global aspirations' of the West and EU nations. Russia has been delving into the forays into international politics, i.e. Syria, from preventing it becoming another 'Al-CIA-da' sponsored excursion like Libya? - On that note, do you see or hear ANY news on Libya on main-stream media? Well on the ground, its a much different story that no one cares about, the globalist media milked it and its onto the next conflict as they say.

Now, we`ve all heard the news reports of Russian long-range bombers buzzing US skies, or overseas territories, or over defense drills in the Pacific - (all to reiterate it was over international airspace) was spawned into vilifying Russia as an aggressor nation willing to 'challenge' the US with it`s saber rattling. Well, every nation has the right to defend itself and its self interests, and Russia is just re-starting the bomber flights since the Soviet era as their nuclear deterrent - as other countries similarly do.

Recently, it was reported Russian nuke subs will begin to patrol southern seas for first time since the Soviet era. Unofficial government sources stated “this would serve to solve the tasks of strategic nuclear deterrence not only across the North Pole but also the South Pole.” It was reported - "Starting from 2014, Russia is going to expand its strategic submarine patrol area of the World Ocean, a source in the Russian General Staff told Itar-Tass agency. The statement comes as the Russian Northern Fleet – the country’s most powerful – is celebrating the 80th anniversary since its foundation in 1933."

The nuclear-powered Borei-class submarines will form the core of  Russia`s strategic submarine fleet. Each one is fitted with with 16 Bulava nuclear ICBMs with later models fitted with 20. The Borei is an advanced state-of-the-art sub compared to previous generations of submarines. Russia’s first Borei sub - the Yury Dolgoruky, was put into service in January this year with 2 more to come end of the year.

In simple words, this is Vladimir Putin saying, "Check!" As Mark Holland commented: "Russia, China and even Iran are once again showing their independence from the US,...but be careful while the US is not the giant it once was, a wounded lion is far more dangerous then a healthy one."

The ever deepening hidden facets to my prodigious 'la familia'

agapegeek.com

Its just a surprising astonishment that where I consider family being the single most thing that`s supposed to bring warmth to the heart and soul is however in reality one of the most destructive elements a person can be exposed to, that causes you to rot from within. The persistent denial, anger, persecution, back-biting and constant disrespect takes its toll on a person when the whole family wages war on them together. There is no escape, no respite despite keeping up appearances when in reality it is utter futile.

The greatest thing now is the amount of disrespect exacted by everyone upon myself. Respect all throughout history was a thing not attainable but commanded or ordained. From the greatest kings to empires, respect existed in all forms as a guide to society. From the older generations to our parents, respect runs high in esteem. American culture at the core as well values respect. But it is the new immigrant class of people coming to this country that trashes the name of respect. To them, respect is people who have the latest iphones, apple computers, mercedes & bmw cars, flashy and dodgy clothes, squabbling who has more wealth or high-paying jobs, having personalities un-becoming of a gentleman from behavior, to mannerisms and hairstyles not commonly seen or accepted by society in general. To them, the pleasures of this world are respect to them. How vain they must be and think that they don`t see the past lessons of history people have endured.

Now, throughout history we are told of 'family' by the greats like Desmond Tutu who said "You don`t choose your family. They are God`s gift to you, as you are to them" or like a Spanish proverb that states that 'an ounce of blood is worth more than a pound of friendship.' However, these statement only make sense to the few utopian families in existence but not all. I can attest to that personally. What good are they to you when they are of in ignorance bliss.

Sooner or later, the burden will eventually break my will which to this day has been shaky at best considering the life events I`m experiencing at this point. Down the road, only time will tell how the story will unfold. The greats in my family have all long passed away, not having to endure the grueling petulance of life currently in our society. Looking back from afar, it is a great shame what society has become. No one learns the lessons of history, for the mighty empires who stood high and fell. For the mighty advancements we contemplate and currently have, there is no respite from the fact we are more at war with our fellow man and sunk into the pleasures of this world as nothing is beyond it.

It surely is a shame, I as the only person share this view and truly see the light at the end of tunnel and can`t relay my message to my family members. I feel more alone and isolated now than anytime in my life. No one can understand that life right now is just mere smoke and mirrors and play has played into it. It surely is tough being unique and loyal to my core values and beliefs as I will never abandon under any threat until my last dying breath. As is in our religion, as commanded by God to the Prophets to their people - to just deliver the message to the people and ultimately it is up the people and God himself to give them the guidance unto the right path.

'Be in the world, but not of it.' For in the end, you are eternally alone before you are born and eternally alone when you die and meet your Creator...

U.S. tells Russia to piss off in supplying Syria with arms

...even though we have been supplying the Syrian rebels and militants to the teeth with brand spanking new weaponry but will throw a fit if Russian supplies 'defensive' weapons to Syria

US officials this Thursday called for Russia not to conduct arm sales to Syria as news reports surfaced that Moscow was ready to sell advanced ground-to-air missiles - the S-300  system to Syria.

Israel informed the U.S. about the sale of the missile batteries, claiming Syria has been making payments on a 2010 agreement with Moscow to buy six launchers and 144 operational missiles for $900 million according to the information the Israeli`s provided.

Commenting on the media reports, US Secretary of State John Kerry said earlier in the day that “the missiles are potentially destabilizing with respect to the state of Israel.”

Again, the key word said by Kerry - "...state of Israel," its always about Israel and nothing else it seems in the world.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said that “the provision of additional weapons to the regime will not hasten a political solution,...including air defense systems that are destabilizing to the region.”

Well here he said 'region' while another said 'Israel' but do get the picture in the end though.

Of course Israel and the U.S. doesn`t want Syria to get the powerful S-300 missile system as it is a 'game changer,' meaning effectively Syria would be 'hands off.' They successfully lobbied Russia when they  persuaded Moscow as to not fulfill a contract with Iran about the similar S-300 missile system - in the event Israel and the U.S. launched airstrikes to maintain air superiority. 

Now the sale of Russian weapons to Syria has always been a source of bilateral tension between Moscow and Washington, with US officials accusing Russia of arming a regime the United States says is killing its own citizens in Syria’s raging civil war. 

But who is killing who? What is the real status quo in Syria? The Syrian rebels and militants are on record of being Al-Qaeda affiliated and media reports confirmed today that the rebels are defecting to the Islamist group Jabhat al-Nusra. Jabhat al-Nusra is a known Al-Qaeda group and designated as a terrorist organisation by our State Dept. It is the same rebels as evidenced by the UN who used deadly chemicals weapons...but of course the great superpowers of the world don`t care and brush off the news as 'false' and 'skeptical.'

Russia, however, has insisted that the deliveries are legal under international law and that it is not supplying Syria, [...] with offensive weapons which can be used to kill civilians.

As the world powers play around, innocent civilians are caught in the cross hairs so to speak and pay the ultimate price. They want to turn Syria into Libya...how the 'presstitute' media has forgotten Libya? Do they even KNOW or CARE what the current situation is on the ground there? Of course not, their job is done and have their sights on Syria and Iran. We all know the rebels and militants are completely equipped and financed from abroad who are Al-Qaeda affiliated and at the direction of the West,... yet they spin it in such a way that we are made to believe its a 'populous uprising' against a tyrant. Oh how we miscalculate and mistreat history, we never do indeed learn from history...until its too late.

Is there a darker side to Ariel Castro - "the Cleveland man suspected of abducting 3 girls and holding them captive for around a decade" ... linked with the CIA?

Police rescued 3 women who were locked inside Castro's house on Monday, aged 32, 27 and 23, who all went missing from 2002 to 2004 as well as finding a 6-year-old girl who police believe was born in captivity.

"Castro and 2 of his brothers, Onil, 50, and Pedro, 54, were taken into custody on Monday and were expected to be charged within 36 hours of their arrest."

However, in hindsight, there were signs of a darker side to Ariel Castro...

Did Ariel Castro kidnap kids for the CIA?

Ariel Castro said he worked for the CIA. Joe Popow, 45, who..."has known the Castro brothers since childhood said: "Ariel was in my garage probably five or six years ago...said he was in the CIA."

"...it's the way he said it, how serious he said it. I didn't know what he was capable of. That just put me on defense, and I just started stepping away," Popow said.

Who knows, it may or not be true at all.

Now it looks like the 3 girls were held prisoner for 10 years - at 2207 Seymour Avenue, the house owned by Ariel Castro since 1992.

In 2004, the police came to visit the home at 2207 Seymour Avenue but "they left when no one answered the door."

It begs to question now as to how police and the feds investigating the case failed to find the 3 girls who remained undetected at the home just 3 miles from the block where they all went missing.

Juan Perez, 27 says that three years ago he and his sister heard a woman's scream that 'gave them goosebumps' that went on for 10 seconds, they called the police but the police took no action.

Israel Lugo, 39, lives three houses down from Ariel Castro's house and "said in 2011 he heard what he thought was a girl banging on a window". He says 'the cops came but they never did anything'.

Nina Samoylicz, a neighbour of Ariel Castro, says she saw three naked young girls crawling in the backyard of his house on all fours with dog leashes around their necks and three men controlling them, but the police never responded to her call and also failed to respond to calls from two other neighbors.

Now, back in 2004, a man named Marc Dutroux was convicted of raping and murdering a string of young girls - 2 of who starved to death in his cellar - he said 'he was part of a widespread pedophile ring that included policemen and elite members of Belgian society.'

Dutroux says he abducted girls with police help and  insisted that he was not a "lone predator" but part of a wider pedophile ring. Belgian police were apparently told the whereabouts of one of the victims of  Marc Dutroux one year before she was found dead, as described in Belgian court papers. It seems that throughout the Dutroux trial there have were allegations of police collusion but remained at that.

Is there a connection...maybe? Will we ever get the full truth? No, never...but there is ALWAYS more to a story than meets the eye. Only time will tell...

UN 'has evidence' the Syrian rebels NOT government troops used chemical weapons

Syria: Carla Del Ponte shock, "rebels have used chemical weapons"
AGI
May 5, 2013

(AGI) - Rome, May 5 - The source and authoritative: Carla del Ponte, the former prosecutor of the Swiss magistrate International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia from 1999 to 2007, states that the United Nations has the evidence - so far - to use "chemical weapons", starting from lethal "sarin gas" in Syria were insurgents and not men loyal to the regime of Bashar al Assad. Then to cross the impassable limit (the "red line") has mentioned more 'times Barack Obama, threatening reaction if using chemical weapons had been Assad, would have been the opposition forces.

He said the microphones of the RSI (Swiss Italian Radio dela) Del Ponte, a member of the UN Commission investigating the war crimes committed in Syria.

"According to the testimonies we collected the rebels have used chemical weapons, using sarin gas" , Del Ponte said adding, however, 'that "the investigation is far from being concluded."

"Our investigations will have to be further examined, tested and proven through new witnesses but as far as we could determine, at the moment are only opponents of the regime to have used the gas (sarin) sarin" said Carla Del Ponte, according to which only the investigation, still in progress, will determine if the Damascus government has or not, used such weapons.

Del Ponte said that the evidence has been collected by "investigators", UN, "on the spot in the neighboring countries, which have questioned the various victims of hospitals and physicians." The former Swiss prosecutor says he, "last seen in a report last week that there are concrete suspicions, if not yet conclusive evidence, and that 'was used sarin gas, for how victims were treated," and, "and this usage 'was made by the opponents of the rebels ... and not by the authorities' government." Del Ponte pointing the finger but 'not on anti-Assad Syrians but against the fringes Qaedist stressing that, "the fact is not surprising because' in the opponents have infiltrated foreign fighters."

WE ARE THE ALIBI FOR THE COMMUNITY 'INTERNATIONAL

The UN commission of inquiry on Syria, and 'only' an alibi for the community 'international', for its inaction.

This is the bitter complaint of Del Ponte, who believes that in order not to drop into the void crimes - from all parties - in more than two years of conflict, you need the 'community' International and Security Council (UN) decide that the permanent court (the International Criminal Court in The Hague, ed) take on these cases. "

Del Ponte 'then convinced that in order to silence the weapons serve an agreement between, "the United States and Russia (Assad's main ally on the Security Council)." "If (Washington and Moscow), they will agree we could have peace, unfortunately not 'happened yet but a little hope there'," said Del Ponte.

Suspected Boston Marathon bomber killed last week had links to CIA...more to the story than meets the eye

"According to documents received by Izvestia, a Russian language newspaper, Tamerlan Tsarnaev was recruited by Georgia's Caucasus Fund, its an organization run by the US non-profit Jamestown Foundation - a known front for the CIA. Jamestown’s board of directors includes Zbigniew Brzezinski, former National Security Advisor to Jimmy Carter. Brzezinski, is a high-level globalist operative who initiated the CIA’s recruitment of Mujahideen (holy fighters) in Afghanistan that ultimately produced Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. CIA director William Casey and Russian dissident Arkady Shevchenko were instrumental in creating the organization.

"The documents were leaked from the files of Georgia's Ministry of Internal Affairs, Counterintelligence Dept. and reported to Izvestia, stating "that between January and July of 2012, Tamerlan Tsarnaev attended the CIA-sponsored workshops and seminars conducted by the NGO Fund of Caucasus."

The Caucasus Fund was established in November 2008, following the Georgian - Ossetian conflict, where the main purpose of the organization, according to Izvestia, is to “to recruit young people and intellectuals of the North Caucasus to enhance instability and extremism in the southern regions of Russia,” essentially "recruiting residents North Caucasus to work in the interests of the United States and Georgia."

"The Russian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly complained to the United States State Department over what it feels is the Jamestown Foundation's meddling in its domestic affairs."
