Comment by Kathleen on 25 August 2008 at 2:43pm -
Bill Clinton was apparently a devout Freemason, don't get me started on THOSE conspiracy theories... or how I feel the influence of such 'organisations' has had on the 'shaping colonialism' that has been inflicted on communities and people...)


That link supplied to the US Presidents will advise you on that...they have mostly all been members of the Scull & Bones club that the elite's children are invited to join when at Yale. My father, grandfather & grt grandfather were all Freemasons...one of them being a 32degree (about the highest then comes the Illuminati & Comm 300) who had his own lodged here in Sydney...my father dropped out as he didn't like what they were doing....Clinton & Bush are cousins and you will find that most Presidents and even Australian MP's have been connected via distant relations to the families that are above the Governments...The Rothschilds, DuPonts, Rockefellers etc who btw are also married into each other's families over the eons - so yes, in a way very incestuous :) I know a little about politics since I come from a family of past MP's, Dukes & others of such elite power..like my father, I also don't agree with what they have been/are doing to the people of this world and am not afraid to speak out against them...nor expose them :)

Comment by Kathleen on 25 August 2008 at 2:43pm - I still get REALLY confused trying to understand the Americal presidential system

Kathleen to understand the USA Presidential system you might like to start at this link...there are connecting links to the next lot of presidents right up to the last one...http://www.theforbiddenknowledge.com/hardtruth/uspresidentasmasonspt2.htm ...sorry, you will have to put the web address into your browser...couldn't get it to link from here :)
Basically they have ALL been related in some way...birth, marriage, cousins...very interesting reading.

Comment by justjason on 25 August 2008 at 2:32pm - those in power always pass that power on to the next heir....WE ALSO NEED A SHIFT IN THE CONSCIENCE OF HUMANITY...An Awareness of our responsibility to each other...our childrens future

Jason what you said about a shift in conscience of humanity...that is the answer to how this world can heal itself...bringing people to conscious awareness...some however are so brainwashed and are not of the degree to be able to wake up to conscious awareness...and the education dept's don't help either as they brainwash the kids from kindergarten up including universities...which are also owned by those top families that are giving orders to Governments worldwide on how they want things to be...they've been doing that for decades too.

As for those in power always pass that power onto the next heir...that is also true...they brainwash their children from the day they are born to believe they, as the chosen one's of God, have the right to control this world...and they continue brainwashing their kids that way all their life...those kids grow up in such luxury they know no other way and with such belief in what has been instilled within them they see no other reasoning...unfortunately...but they are still kids and therefore still like music, videos, art etc and therefore the best way to reach them is to construct works of art advising these kids to truths...it is after all their souls that will suffer along with their parents. Still, I laugh, because in the eternal scheme of things...those that are trying to make slaves out of all others to keep them in their luxurious lifestyles will be the slaves to all others their entire eternal lives to come...got to laugh at that irony :)

Comment by Courtni Hale on 25 August 2008 at 12:47pm - How's everybody liking Obama?

Obama within himself is a very good and consciously aware man...however I don't think he realises what he has put himself in for...there will be many eye opening experiences in his presidential position that he might not like...nor agree with...unfortunately, with the way this world is governed (not by those in Governments who just take orders from others above them) he won't have much say in it...like other Presidents before him...he will most likely just be another mouthpiece to address the public.just like most Presidents have been for decades....the front-men for the powers behind those controlling this world...through their own greed and belief they are God's chosen people, who btw get their instructions from clairvoyants...yes, it is that ridiculous...a world gone mad through lack of understanding the physics of this world.

Comment by Frank Stillitano on 24 August 2008 at 10:34am - economy is an essential part of the world,

The Governments, bankers & powers that be behind those organisations (the families that own the bigger banks - World Bank, Federal Reserve) don't view wealth as money, as they have people believing it is in this world, they view it as the number of population...strange but true...they just elude people to believing it is about money...wealth per say....to them it is about how many people are populating this world and the resources to not only feed the population but also the lack of infrastructure to accommodate the number of people.

Comment by Kathleen on 24 August 2008 at 9:33am - so then, how do we get the rich to part with their wealth... can't kill them, they just bequest their money and spirit to the male heir...

The only true wealthy in this world are those that illume themselves to be...others just believe that illusion...all their so called wealth is on paper and as numbers in computers...but because the media (owned by these so called rich families) push the illusion to the people...the people take it on and believe it :)
Christine-Joy (C J Lewis) Comment by Christine-Joy (C J Lewis) on January 4, 2009 at 5:45pm
To me Solar is the best way to go and the Governments know that but won't make as much money from it as it would be self-sufficient for people...to those that are running this world..they seem to think money is the way to their supposed heaven...which is a sub-conscious condition not a place. Kathleen they are trying teach people survival tips due to knowing what is being cooked up for the people of this world...all science is based on hypothetical analysis...not facts...they have only just decided that there is something in the Laws of Attraction...the ancient civilizations knew those physics of the world...this society is still young and just getting out of kindergarten from my viewpoint.

Have you seen the documentary; The Power of Nightmares. If you haven't check it out.

Synopsis;

Part 1: "Baby It's Cold Outside"

The first part of the series explains the origin of Islamism and Neo-Conservatism. It shows Egyptian civil servant Sayyid Qutb, depicted as the founder of modern Islamist thought, visiting the U.S. to learn about the education system, but becoming disgusted with what he saw as a corruption of morals and virtues in western society through individualism. When he returns to Egypt, he is disturbed by westernisation under Gamal Abdel Nasser and becomes convinced that in order to save society it must be completely restructured along the lines of Islamic law while still using western technology. He also becomes convinced that this can only be accomplished through the use of an elite "vanguard" to lead a revolution against the established order. Qutb becomes a leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and, after being tortured in one of Nasser's jails, comes to believe that western-influenced leaders can justly be killed for the sake of removing their corruption. Qutb is executed in 1966, but he inspires the future mentor of Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri, to start his own secret Islamist group. Inspired by the 1979 Iranian revolution, Zawahiri and his allies assassinate Egyptian president Anwar Al Sadat, in 1981, in hopes of starting their own revolution. The revolution does not materialise, and Zawahiri comes to believe that the majority of Muslims have been corrupted by their western-inspired leaders and thus may be legitimate targets of violence if they do not join him.

At the same time in the United States, a group of disillusioned liberals, including Irving Kristol and Paul Wolfowitz, look to the political thinking of Leo Strauss after the general failure of President Johnson's "Great Society". They come to the conclusion that the emphasis on individual liberty was the undoing of the plan. They envisioned restructuring America by uniting the American people against a common evil, and set about creating a mythical enemy. These factions, the Neo-Conservatives, came to power under the Reagan administration, with their allies Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, and work to unite the United States in fear of the Soviet Union. The Neo-Conservatives allege the Soviet Union is not following the terms of disarmament between the two countries, and, with the investigation of "Team B", they accumulate a case to prove this with dubious evidence and methods. President Reagan is convinced nonetheless.


Part 2: "The Phantom Victory"

In the second episode, Islamist factions, rapidly falling under the more radical influence of Zawahiri and his rich Saudi acolyte Osama bin Laden, join the Neo-Conservative-influenced Reagan Administration to combat the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan. They are successful in repulsing the Soviet armies and, when the Eastern Bloc begins to collapse in the late 1980s, both groups believe they are the primary architects of the "Evil Empire's" defeat. Curtis argues that the Soviets were on their last legs anyway, and were doomed to collapse without intervention.

However, the Islamists see it quite differently, and in their triumph believe that they had the power to create 'pure' Islamic states in Egypt and Algeria. However, attempts to create perpetual Islamic states are blocked by force. The Islamists then try to create revolutions in Egypt and Algeria by the use of terrorism to scare the people into rising up. However, the people are terrified by the violence and the Algerian government uses their fear as a way to maintain power. In the end, the Islamists declare the entire populations of the countries as inherently contaminated by western values, and finally in Algeria turn on each other, each believing that other terrorist groups are not pure enough Muslims either.

In America, the Neo-Conservatives' aspirations to use the United States military power for further destruction of evil are thrown off track by the ascent of George HW Bush to the presidency, followed by the 1992 election of Bill Clinton leaving them out of power. The Neo-Conservatives, with their conservative Christian allies, attempt to demonise Clinton throughout his presidency with various real and fabricated stories of corruption and immorality. To their disappointment, however, the American people do not turn against Clinton. The Islamist attempts at revolution end in massive bloodshed, leaving the Islamists without popular support. Zawahiri and bin Laden flee to the sufficiently safe Afghanistan and declare a new strategy; to fight Western-inspired moral decay they must deal a blow to its source: the United States.


Part 3: "The Shadows in the Cave"

The Neo-Conservatives use the September 11th attacks, with al-Fadl's description of al-Qaeda, to launch the War on Terror.

The final episode addresses the actual rise of al-Qaeda. Curtis argues that, after their failed revolutions, bin Laden and Zawahiri had little or no popular support, let alone a serious complex organisation of terrorists, and were dependent upon independent operatives to carry out their new call for jihad. The film instead argues that in order to prosecute bin Laden in absentia for the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings, US prosecutors had to prove he was the head of a criminal organisation responsible for the bombings. They find a former associate of bin Laden, Jamal al-Fadl, and pay him to testify that bin Laden was the head of a massive terrorist organisation called "al-Qaeda". With the September 11th attacks, Neo-Conservatives in the new Republican government of George W. Bush use this created concept of an organisation to justify another crusade against a new evil enemy, leading to the launch of the War on Terrorism.

After the American invasion of Afghanistan fails to uproot the alleged terrorist network, the Neo-Conservatives focus inwards, searching unsuccessfully for terrorist sleeper cells in America. They then extend the war on "terror" to a war against general perceived evils with the invasion of Iraq in 2003. The ideas and tactics also spread to the United Kingdom where Tony Blair uses the threat of terrorism to give him a new moral authority. The repercussions of the Neo-Conservative strategy are also explored with an investigation of indefinitely-detained terrorist suspects in Guantanamo Bay, many allegedly taken on the word of the anti-Taliban Northern Alliance without actual investigation on the part of the United States military, and other forms of "preemption" against non-existent and unlikely threats made simply on the grounds that the parties involved could later become a threat. Curtis also makes a specific attempt to allay fears of a dirty bomb attack, and concludes by reassuring viewers that politicians will eventually have to concede that some threats are exaggerated and others altogether devoid of reality.

LEFTY ALONE ...

It's quite amazing then you think about how many pairs of shoes there must be in the would, even just single shoes, ones who have lost there partner.

Why, I have a single shoe, I don't know. Where has it's partners has gone? that's a good question.

Probably its eloped with that crazy red sock's partner that's sitting alone on my night stand. I know it's watching me, sitting up there on its high horse, waiting until my back is turned, watching the swimming on TV or something, then it gets up to no good, asserting its power over the other socks.

Now you might ask yourself, what good is a single shoe? Does it have a have there place in this big wide world we live on?

A question to ponder.

Anyway, I keep this single shoe, Lefty, near the door, it still works, the lasses are good and there is still plenty of tread on it's clean soul. Just I think it lacks purpose, for now. Well that's what I think but maybe Lefty has different ideas.

I have tried many time to have a serious discussion about the situation with it, but to no avail - it just sits there with it's tongue hanging out. Sometime I even think it may be mocking me.

Once I thought I saw it watching the red sock on the night stand but maybe I was just imagining things. I really should get the two of them together, they do have allot in common.

But then I ask myself are they really suitable for each other? Why a shoe named Lefty and a red sock, which I haven't named yet, what would people think of the mix relationship? Could they have a happy life together and would the create a whole?

Now I remember when I first got Lefty and Righty, I thought " yes, now these are a good pair of sensible shoes " But the was always something about Righty, I would go to bed and leave both Lefty and Righty near the door where Lefty sits now but the next morning I would find Righty in the cupboard with a pair of my wife's stilettos, which are cute but so impractical and sometimes just a pain. Or even stranger still I would find Righty in with another pair of my dress shoes eeek!, now if they where my wife's dress shoes I could understand as her dress shoes are nothing like those stay out all night on the town stilettos. They are of a comfortable hight and both of good quality, unlike Rightly who's breeding and background I began to speculate about after I found it one morning in with an old pair of thongs that had seen better days.

Pondering this leeds me to wonder about the socks to. I know there where two of them but I'm not sure whether or not the lone, unnamed sock that is sitting on the bed stand is Left or Right? Do socks work like that?

All the socks sort of just live together in the dresser, and I'm really only able to distinguish one from another by colour and texture and at times of great need even this doesn't matter.

They are quite egalitarian and utilitarian by nature, although I have hear there are some among the group that try to stand out for the most part they just are, and even if one gets lost another can take it's place. But when it comes to shoes, well that's a different kettle of fish.

Now come to thing of it I haven't seen the other red sock around for a while the sneaky thing it was, I think the last time I saw it was just before Lefty's partner disappeared. I hope where ever Righty is now it soul is in as good condition as Lefty's.

I will keep you posted on Lefty's life and it's search for Mr Righty.

On a final note, I beg your indulgence and ask one more question, are we making a difference or are we just lost shoes and misplaced socks in the Laundromats and cupboards of life? ...
