Autistic Boy “Treated Like Trash” Was Put in Bag and Left in School Hallway

Activist Post
December 23, 2011

America has fully embraced the trickle down tyranny; torture and all forms of sadism have now been loosed upon adults and children alike.

Earlier in the week an article by Rania Khalek at AlterNet documented how “non-lethal” weapons are now being deployed on “disobedient” school children in increasing numbers through taser-equipped School Resource Officers.

The most fragile and weakest among us are clearly not immune to the new torture doctrine of the United States, which has rolled back speedily toward medieval times.

YouTube is filled to overflowing with incidents of police brutality among common citizens, as well as in highly publicized atrocities like the stomping to death of mentally handicapped Kelly Thomas.

The outrages of the police state apparatus have only been enhanced by the Orwellian-termed “non-lethal” weaponry at its disposal.  These non- and less-than-lethal weapons nearly all have their root in torture and intimidation, rather than legitimate attempts to reduce casualty numbers and protect crowds as is suggested by authorities.

We have entered an era of madness, as the insightful article by Rania Khalek referenced above articulates, through her chronicle of non-lethal weapons, their origin, and their current proliferation as a weapon in the war on . . . everybody.

When humiliation, fear, and pain are accepted as a valid tools in managing human behavior — especially children, — anything becomes possible.

And that “anything” is stuffing an autistic boy in a duffel bag, leaving him in a school hallway, and having everyone involved justify or downplay the situation.  After all, it’s just a “therapy bag” according to school officials

As a teacher’s aide stood by, the mother of the child arrived to find that her 9-year-old son “was treated like trash and thrown in the hallway,” according to an Associated Press report.  However, the author of the article actually interjects that, “She did not know exactly how long he had been in the bag, but probably not more than 20 minutes (emphasis added).”  That is the author of the article; paid to report facts, not downplay the length of time and the horror of being stuffed in a bag by people in a position of trust and care.  As if 19 minutes would have been OK.

The school is predictably quiet on the issue, as “Mercer County schools Interim Superintendent Dennis Davis said confidentiality laws forbid him from commenting,” but “‘The employees of the Mercer County Public Schools are qualified professionals who treat students with respect and dignity while providing a safe and nurturing learning environment,'” Davis said in a statement.

Saddest of all, perhaps, is the reaction of a quoted advocate for the autistic who was “outraged.”  You be the judge at the level of outrage, and please leave your comments below:

Landon Bryce of San Jose, Calif., a former teacher who blogs about issues related to autism, said the school’s treatment of Chris was ‘careless and disrespectful.’

Santa Claus the Magic Mushroom

by Eric Dubay
The Atlantean Conspiracy
December 23, 2011

Have you ever wondered why on Christmas we cut down/carry evergreen trees inside our houses, decorate them with fancy ornaments, and place presents underneath them?401362_f496.jpg

 

“So, why do people bring Pine trees into their houses at the Winter Solstice, placing brightly colored (Red and White) packages under their boughs, as gifts to show their love for eachother and as representations of the love of God and the gift of his Sons life? It is because, underneath the Pine bough is the exact location where one would find this ‘Most Sacred’Substance, the Amanita muscaria, in the wild.”–James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (8)

The Amanita muscaria is the red and white magic mushroom that grows almost exclusively beneath Pine trees. Their main psychoactive ingredient is ‘muscimol,’ as well as trace amount of DMT, an entheogen naturally produced in the brain’s pineal gland. The pinecone-shaped pine-al gland is an organ that produces the same DMT found in this pine tree fungus, and much more.

“DMT exists in all of our bodies and occurs throughout the plant and animal kingdoms. It is a part of the normal makeup of humans and other mammals; marine animals; grasses and peas; toads and frogs; mushroomsand molds; and barks, flowers, and roots … DMT is . . . in this flower here, in that tree over there, and in yonder animal. [It] is, most simply, almost everywhere you choose to look.” Indeed, it is getting to the point where one should report where DMT is not found, rather than where it is.” -Dr. Rick Strassman, “DMT – The Spirit Molecule” (42)

“The Pine tree is one of the well-known central relics of Christmas. Under this tree is where those who are deemed good find their reward in the form of a present. A big red and white rounded mushroom grows under the very tree we are to look under on Christmas morning to find our gift.”–James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (6)

Green, red, and white as Christmas colors comes from the evergreen tree and the red and white mushrooms underneath.The word Christmas originally comes from the Egyptian KRST (oiled/anointed one) and Mes, the sacred cakes annually made/ingested by the Egyptians.This Eucharist was originally made from Amanita muscaria or was the mushroom itself.The tradition existed all over the ancient world, but most of the iconography/symbology recognized today comes from pre-Christian Northern Europe.

“The very name, ‘Christmas’ is a holiday name composed of the words, ‘Christ’ (meaning ‘one who is anointed with the Magical Substance’) and ‘Mass’ (a special religious service/ceremony of the sacramental ingestion of the Eucharist, the ‘Body of Christ’). In the Catholic tradition, this substance (Body/Soma) has been replaced by the doctrine of ‘Trans-substantiation’, whereby in a magical ceremony the Priests claim the ability to transform a‘cracker/round-wafer’ into the literal ‘Body of Christ’; ie, a substitute or placebo.”-James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (9-10)

“Although most people see Christmas as a Christian holiday, most of the symbols and icons we associate with Christmas celebrations are actually derived from the shamanistic traditions ofthe tribal peoples of pre-Christian Northern Europe. The sacred mushroom of these people was the red and white amanita muscaria mushroom … These peoples lived in dwellings madeof birch and reindeer hide, called ‘yurts.’ Somewhat similar to a teepee, the yurt’s central smoke hole is often also used as an entrance. After gathering the mushrooms from under the sacred trees where they appeared, the shamans would fill their sacks and return home.Climbing down the chimney-entrances, they would share out the mushroom’s gifts with those within … Santa also dresses like a mushroom gatherer. When it was time to go out and harvest the magical mushrooms, the ancient shamans would dressmuch like Santa, wearing red and white fur-trimmed coats and long black boots.”-Dana Larsen, “The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus” Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003

To this day Siberian shamans dress in ceremonial red and white fur-trimmed jackets to gather the magic mushrooms.First they pick and place the mushrooms to partially dry on nearby pine boughs which prepares them for ingestion and makes the load lighter.This is why we decorate our Christmas trees with ornaments and bulbs, because the gatherers would always adorn trees with drying mushrooms.Next the shaman collects his red and white presents in a sack and proceeds to travel from house to house delivering them.During Siberian winters, the snow piles up past the doors of their yurts (huts), so the red and white clad shaman must climb down the smoke-hole (chimney) to deliver the presents in his sack.Finally the appreciative villagers string the mushrooms up or put them in stockings hung affront the fire to dry.When they awake in the morning, their presents from under the pine tree are all dried and ready to eat.

“The amanita mushroom needs to be dried before being consumed; the drying process reduces the mushroom’s toxicity while increasing its potency. The shaman would guide the group in stringing the mushrooms and hanging them around the hearth-fire to dry. This tradition is echoed in the modern stringing of popcorn and other items.”-Dana Larsen, “The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus” Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003

“The ancient shamanic use of Amanita muscaria in Siberiais well documented. Despite governmental oppression against its use, there are still many who refuse to accept the authorized state religion, and continue the shamanic traditions in secret. Just as the Siberian shaman (commonly dressing in red and white) would enter through the opening in the roof of a home where a ritual was to be done, Santa Claus also arrives on the roof and enters throughthe chimney. Just as the shamans would gather the mushrooms in bags which they would bring with them when performing a ceremony, Santa Claus also (on the Holy Day) brings presents in a bag.”-James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (10)

Siberian reindeer also enjoy eating amanita mushrooms and thus are often used as a lure by the deer-herding natives.Since one of the hallucinatory experiences often felt on psychedelic mushrooms is that of flying, Santa’s flying reindeer most likely derive from this.

“Reindeer were the sacred animals of these semi-nomadic people, as the reindeer provided food, shelter, clothing and other necessities. Reindeer are also fond of eating the amanita mushrooms; they will seek them out, and then prance about while under their influence … The effects of the amanita mushroom usually include sensations of size distortion and flying. The feeling of flying could account for the legends of flying reindeer, and legends of shamanic journeys included stories of winged reindeer, transporting their riders up to the highest branches of the World Tree.”-Dana Larsen, “The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus” Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003

The flying reindeer, sleigh, and the entire Santa Claus mythology originates from Siberia where Saint Nicholas, the patron Saint of children, is a supplanter to the indigenous Shamans.

“Saint Nicholas, known as the ‘Patron Saint of Children,’ is the most revered saint in Russia, second only to the apostles. He is the Russian Orthodox Church’s supplanter to the native people’s highly respected local Shaman. A Shaman is a holy man that is well acquainted with a form of spirituality that incorporates plant entheogens which facilitate the NDE (Near Death Experience), or ‘out of body’ experience. Saint Nicholas may not have been a shaman, yet the symbolism on, and coloring of his robes could lend to speculation.”–James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (10)

“One of the side effects of eating amanita mushrooms is that the skin and facial features takeon a flushed, ruddy glow. This is why Santa is always shown with glowing red cheeks and nose. Even Santa’s jolly ‘Ho, ho, ho!’ is the euphoric laugh of one who has indulged in the magic fungus.”-Dana Larsen, “The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus” Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003

Could this by why Rudolph’s nose is red?

“Santa’s famous magical journey, where his sleigh takes him around the whole planet in a single night, is developed from the ‘heavenly chariot’ used by the gods from whom Santa and other shamanic figures are descended. The chariot of Odin, Thor and even the Egyptian godOsiris is now known as the Big Dipper, which circles around the North Star in a 24-hour period. In different versions of the ancient story, the chariot was pulled by reindeer or horses. As the animals grow exhausted, their mingled spit and blood falls to the ground, forming the amanita mushrooms.”-Dana Larsen, “The Psychedelic Secrets of Santa Claus” Cannabis Culture, Marijuana Magazine, Dec 18th, 2003

“It is fairly common knowledge that the Weihnachtsmann (St. Nick) was an amalgamation of older Germanic/Norse gods such as Thor, Donner, Odin and Wotan. What’s missing here is just as Santa flies through the skies in his sleigh, Odin (as well as the rest) rode through the sky in his chariot, which is depicted in the stars by ‘The Big Dipper’. The Big Dipper is the chariot of Odin & Wotan, Thor, King Arthur, and even Osiris (of Egypt). The chariot that circles the North Star in a 24 hour period is thus also known as the sleigh of Santa Claus because it circles his mythological home, the North Pole. It is no surprise that Nordic/Germanic gods have connection to mushrooms in their mythology. As Thor throws his mushroom-shaped hammer to the ground, mighty thunders and lightning cracks cause the real mushroom(s) to appear. As the horses pulling Odin through the sky in his chariot become over-exerted, their blood-mingled spit falls to the ground and causes the Amanita mushrooms to grow at those exact points.”–James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (10-11)

Probably the first Santa was Osiris in ancient Egypt who rode his flying chariot to/from the North Pole, was born on December 25th, and celebrated by putting presents underneath an evergreen tree.

“Not only did Osiris ride the sky in a chariot, but after his death Isisfound that an evergreen (Cedar) had grown overnight from a dead stump to full-sized; which was understood as a sign of Osiris’ rebirth and immortality. Interestingly, the traditional birth of Osiris is the 25th of December. The 25th of December was also celebrated annually by putting presents around the Cedar tree. This tradition is at least five thousand years old. The birth of Horus to the goddess-virgin-mother, Isis, is perhaps the eldest representation of the goddess/son mythology, yet it is impossible to know this or the real age of the Astro-theological-Virgo-giving-birth-to-the-child/god/star mythology for sure. However it is the oldest source I have found.”–James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (11)

Santa, an anagram for Satan, dresses in red, keeps lists of naughty/nice children, and seems to steal Christmas from Jesus.But if understood in its original mushroom context, Santa’s not a conniving, omniscient, list-keeper.He’s an Entheogen – a plant or substance which is said to “generate the God within.”The word Entheogen breaks down, En for inside, Theo for God, and Gen for generate – generate the God inside.If you have ever taken an Entheogen (i.e. Psilocybin, DMT, Peyote, Ayahuasca), then you are already aware of the spiritual or even religious experiences associated with them.As anyone who has tried them knows, and most anyone who hasn’t fiercely denies, these Entheogens put us directly in contact with that spark of the divine within ourselves.They allow access to higher consciousness and open our third-eyes; The outer material world dissolves and the “five” senses return to a state of one sense, one consciousness.

“First hand understanding is through the ingestion of the holy substances, of which there has been so much written, that this brief expose’ merely scratches the surface of. It is this direct communal contact which is truly the means whereby a human being can experience his true spiritual nature. One must take very seriously his /her own spirituality, for this is that which we truly are. As I stated in the opening sentence, ‘This experience is of extremely great value’. So much so, that I feel it necessary to the evolutionary process of each and every individual, and inevitably to all of mankind.”-James Arthur, “Mushrooms and Mankind” (26)  MORE HERE

Chemtrail-like Substance Could Be Used in Blue Beam Type Operation

December 24, 2011

Originally posted October of 2011

The fact stands that there are patents and military technologies available to project 3D holograms including light and sound onto a background using crystals composed of barium and strontium (the very components that make up chemtrails, or aerosol sprays typically used in stratospheric geoengineering applications).

Yes, geoengineering/chemtrails are a reality — in fact there is a Presidential Budget kept basically secret from the civilian population of the United States, and yes plans for a staged ET/UFO invasion on the masses’could be the next trick up the secret sinister governments sleeve.

Is the stage set for Project Blue Beam to commence?

An excerpt from the Examiner reads;

An  Albuquerque, NM, witness reports looking skyward after hearing four jets taking off from nearby Kirtland Air Force Base and then watching a “V-shaped object” appear in front of and below a plane with five lights under it on October 19, 2011, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

“I was at work at corner of Vasser and Lomas Blvd. by the University of New Mexico Hospital when four jets were heard taking off from the Kirtland Air Force Base,” the witness stated. “That alerted me that there might be something that could be a threat in the sky, (approximately at 1:25 a.m.). I went to the MUFON.com and checked for the latest sightings, then saw an airplane flying east above cloud level right above me.”

But the witness describes a V-shaped object in the sky.

“While watching the airplane, a V-shaped object appeared in front of the plane and right under it. V-shaped object had five lights under it. Round lights at all three points and two more in between the three points making a V-shape. Object appeared above me and travelled southbound for five seconds; then shot up straight into the moonlit night. Half moon was at my 3 o’clock. Airplane traveling from 9 o’clock to 3 o’clock. Object went from 12 o’clock to 6 o’clock about 96 degrees south at mach speed.”

The Intel Hub has also received similar reports from various locations in the CONUS (Continental United States) and is requesting additional information/sightings to be sent to us (tips@theintelhub.com).

Other agencies have also reported a ramp-up in activity.


From Mind Control to Superstardom: The Meaning of Lady Gaga’s “Marry the Night”

Vigilant Citizen
December 18, 2011

The music video “Marry the Night” tells the story of Lady Gaga’s rise to fame in the entertainment industry. Oddly enough, her “journey” begins with her describing the symptoms of a trauma-based mind control victim. Is there a deeper meaning to this video? We’ll look at the symbolism of “Marry the Night” and its underlying occult meaning.

Lady Gaga generated a great buzz among her fans when she announced that the video to Marry the Night would reveal a part of her past. Did her fans expect the video to begin with a traumatized Gaga inside a psychiatric ward with a bunch of lobotomized girls? Probably not. But from that strange starting point, the video proceeds to depict Gaga’s rise to super-stardom. How does all of that tie in together? To most, this doesn’t really make any sense. However, to those who understand the relation between trauma-based mind control and the entertainment industry, it makes perfect sense. While many of her previous videos referred to mind control in subtle and symbolic ways (see previous articles on Vigilant Citizen), Marry the Night takes it a step further, pretty much spelling it out. At the very start of the video, Gaga’s monologue defines in unequivocal terms the plight of a mind control victim. Despite her hardships, she says, she is determined to make it in the music business and is ready to do whatever it takes to reach her goal. She therefore “marries the night”, an expression that has a profound meaning.

The video is Lady Gaga’s directorial debut and, according MTV.com it is basically a “big thank you” to Interscope Records – the record label that signed her. This is definitely true but the video also says thanks to those behind her record label: the “Night” that she married. Let’s look at the video’s most important scenes.

The False Flags That Stole Christmas

by Zen Gardner
Before It’s News
December 24, 2011

This is their time of year. Oh how they love to turn this holiday into an exercise in fear. And I don’t mean to do the same, but we are dealing with psychopathic killers and we need to keep a wary eye out at all times.

BTW,  I don’t give Obama any credit for all this. He’s just a smooth liar and empty symbol who rubber stamps the agenda of the vicious Controllers.

Some Christmas Hysteria History

Christmas terror hysteria started with our bungling shoebomber on Dec. 22, 2001 which first further ratcheted up the ridiculous airport security frenzy starting after 9/11. In 2002 the season’s hysteria was seemingly justified when 5 Arab men were reported to have crossed over from Canada en route to setting off a mini-nuke in NYC. That made things pleasant.

Then in 2003 the hysteria was built on a supposed confession from the middle east that they were going to bomb Las Vegas during the holidays, if you remember that one.  On Dec. 26, 2004 came the horrific, and suspicious, Indonesian earthquake and tsunami that dominated everyone’s thoughts and broke our hearts during the holidays. December 2005 there was a supposed threat on a Wyoming refinery, and Dec. 2006 they told us there was a terrorist hand grenade threat on a Chicago mall.

The next big one was in 2009 with the lame underwear bomber on Christmas day to spoil everyone’s festivities and which brought on eugenecist Chertoff’s deadly backscatter machines. And then here’s last year’s “terror threat” just to keep everyone on the ol’ fear bummer. Terror hysteria groundhog day once again:

A Muslim extremist has been caught in Iraq, and confessed to a plot to attack America on Christmas, and now the threat level has been heightened for the entire country. Al Qaeda is calling for terrorist to create chaos for Christmas in America as they go about their holiday plans. (Source)

And sure enough! The Portland patsy was caught uspposedly plotting to car bomb a Christmas tree lighting ceremony. All admittedly set up and planned by the FBI but who’s paying attention, anyway.

So Why The Silence This Year?

Unless I’m missing something, I’m not hearing it. That or I’m numb to it or not watching the mainstain news enough. They may just figure we’re sufficiently freaked out after years of this bullshit and with a crashing economy and the loss of all of our freedoms. Nothing major.

But that seems to be all we’re hearing about, the fascist clampdown taking place for “our security.”

…That, and something else is playing front and center in their propaganda:

https://i0.wp.com/truthfrequencynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Iraq-Iran.jpg

Iran War Drums – A Familiar Beat

Hmmmm. Wouldn’t it be convenient to move this program along while they put a halt to all this joy and sharing going on, however polluted the season has become? Why not jam it to everyone with something really horrid, like their slaughter of the childcare unit of the Murrow building–and without the traditional Christmas terror threat warning?

Horror is their calling card.

But as they do, they’ll get all kinds of benefits for whatever they pull off. They line up the dominoes real careful before they pull the trigger. And if they don’t do it now they’ll do it soon, especially if Americans keep up this protesting of the draconian laws, surveillance and coming checkpoints around the country, never mind the growing Ron Paul phenomenon.

So why not stage something and loose the hounds on Iran and Syria while we’re at it? And then maybe round up some of these protestors and activists? Why not, everything’s in place with FEMA camps operating as detention centers so unrest and opposition could be quelled in a hurry, or so they think.

And with the US military established in over 130 countries and bases throughout the middle east and Europe, never mind the private security companies, CIA, Mossad and other operatives, all they need is an excuse.

And that is very easily manufactured, whether it’s now or in the near future.

https://i0.wp.com/temi.repubblica.it/UserFiles/limes-heartland/Image/Maps/409_Obama_big_game_500.jpg

Don’t mean to spoil your holiday but this is the sad and very dangerous reality we live in. Be happy but don’t let your guard down.

Merry Everything!

Enjoy your family and loved ones, it’s the only time for many to get off their treadmills and get together. Celebrate away!

Happy thought? Soon every day will be a reason to celebrate instead of just one! It already is, but we gotta get rid of this control system so everyone will have a chance.

Loving non compliance is the key.

Love and peace on earth to all,  Zen

With all of the pieces in place, when will the hammer drop?

By Madison Ruppert
Editor of End the Lie
December 22, 2011

Over the past few months, those who have been paying attention have witnessed some of the most disturbing developments in modern American history unfold at breakneck speed.

This includes the explicit codification of indefinite detention without charge or trial as well as rendition under the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) Fiscal Year 2012, the KBR move to create a team of sub-contractors to activate the so-called FEMA camps on a moment’s notice and the designation of American citizens as the enemy under Continuity of Government (COG) plans created by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Unfortunately, the file revealing the FEMA COG plans, entitled “National Continuity Programs (NCP) Program and Mission Support Services (PAMSS)” was quickly removed from the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) official website, according to Infowars.

All that is left is a message warning users to not upload any classified materials, even though the document was listed as “Source Selection Sensitive” and not classified, as the warning notice might have you believe.

This serves as just another example of our criminal, corrupt government believing that there is no need for them to be accountable for their actions to the American people which are used as collateral and man power in their insane schemes.

These developments have been part of a gradual march toward an all-encompassing authoritarian police state with a massive surveillance grid so expansive George Orwell would likely never believe it could be reality.

Just a few pieces of this incomparably complex control grid include the Carrier IQ monitoring software which is loaded on to every major smartphone by every major wireless service provider, drone surveillance which includes so-called threat assessment technology and facial recognition, comprehensive and centralized biometric databases, along with widespread citizen spying programs.

This surveillance state, which has already been rolled out and is only increasing in reach and depth, is complimented by the militarization of police moving towards a de facto martial law.

However, the NDAA makes the steady move to turn local and state police departments into paramilitary forces look like child’s play.

Previously, I believed that programs like the Pentagon’s 1033 program were being used to transform public servants into public oppressors without having to formally declare martial law, but now it is clear that I was wrong.

Under the NDAA, there is absolutely no need to declare martial law now or in the future, given that it effectively eviscerates the Bill of Rights, the Posse Comitatus Act and the Non-Detention Act.

Declaring martial law would just be redundant, given that there is absolutely nothing stopping the military from kicking down the doors of innocent Americans and holding them indefinitely under the guise of fighting terrorism.

We are already seeing military technology being rolled out in situations where it hardly seems warranted, as was the case with the use of a Predator B drone in North Dakota, along with the entirety of the dangerous domestic drone program, and the decision to deploy an armored personnel carrier (APC) to the Occupy Tampa protests.

There is no need for the individual to even have tenuous links to terrorism or terrorist groups, as the military will never be forced to justify their actions or present evidence to anyone.

Even more disturbing is that now American citizens can be charged with providing “material support” to terrorists simply by writing about issues which might otherwise be covered by free speech.

This was exemplified by the case of 29-year-old Tarek Mehanna who federal prosecutors claim travelled to Yemen in 2004 in hopes of training as a terrorist and then killing American soldiers fighting in Iraq.

However, Mehanna failed to locate any training camps – clearly indicating he is not keyed in to the terrorist underworld – and then allegedly returned home to promote al Qaeda by writing about violent jihad against the United States online.

Mehanna and his legal team gave a much different story: instead of going to Yemen to attempt, and fail, to find a terrorist training camp, Mehanna claims that he went to Yemen simply to receive instruction to become an Islamic scholar and that his writings on the internet were protected by free speech.

Carol Rose, the executive director of the Massachusetts chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), said that they are “gravely concerned that today’s verdict against Tarek Mehanna undermines the First Amendment and threatens national security.”

“Under the government’s theory of the case, ordinary people – including writers and journalists, academic researchers, translators, and even ordinary web surfers – could be prosecuted for researching or translating controversial or unpopular ideas. If the verdict is not overturned on appeal, the First Amendment will be seriously compromised,” the ACLU’s statement said.

It is clear that there is an assault on the Constitution on all fronts, with the federal government leading the charge in the war against our liberties, as clearly shown by the disturbing levels of support for the NDAA seen in both the House and Senate.

Increasingly American citizens are being treated like the enemy, and if the NDAA’s sections are fully utilized, many Americans could be locked up as prisoners of war and civilian internees without charge or trial with no hope of being released until the government makes the call.

The disturbing truth is that being designated a civilian internee is literally the best case scenario for people like myself who relentlessly expose government malfeasance and the evisceration of our most essential liberties as  protected by the Constitution.

The mainstream corporate controlled media is all but completely ignoring the NDAA, and when they do cover it, which is laughably rare, they whitewash the most important sections and claim that the bill does not actually provide for the indefinite detention of American citizens, which I clearly debunked in a previous article.

As every week goes by, it becomes clearer that we are approaching a crossroads in this nation and around the world.

One road will lead us even further down the slippery slope of tyranny into a situation that would make the Orwellian police state we currently see unfolding around us look tame.

This road leads to massive indefinite detention of American citizens in FEMA prison camps which have already been erected around the nation, along with the establishment of even more detention centers on military installations and elsewhere.

It also leads to the total abolition of habeas corpus and all of the rights which so many Americans never imagined could ever be in danger of being impinged on, restricted, or even removed altogether.

The other road is obviously the one I would much prefer we head down.

This is one where the traitors in our government are brought to justice, the tyrannical financial establishment is dismantled in favor of a much more equitable debt-free monetary system, and the global imperialistic force serving the corporate elite that the United States military has become is radically changed.

The nationwide and now global surveillance state would be scrapped, the mainstream media would become irrelevant and die off in a matter of days, the government would no longer believe itself to be immune from criticism and the once opaque operations would become open and accountable to the people footing the bill.

No longer would innocent people be slaughtered at home and abroad in the name of the sham that is the war on terror and the United States would no longer be the reviled death machine that it has become thanks to our hijacked government.

Collusion between corporate interests and all government corruption would no longer be the rampant, parasitic blight that it currently is.

Our freedoms and safety would be secured, not through a phony war on terror which seeks to have us trade liberty for security, but instead through a genuine government that actually sought to protect its citizens and not use them as collateral and slave labor in private prisons.

The failed drug war would end and thus the countless non-violent offenders we are paying to keep locked up in college for criminals while they are exploited for cheap labor by government-connected corporations would no longer fill our prisons.

Medical marijuana could replace many overpriced and dangerous pharmaceutical treatments and hemp could drastically impact countless industries and revive the American economy and turn the United States back into the manufacturing powerhouse and economic power it once was.

Bankers would be held accountable for their criminal activity and no longer would our government be a revolving door system for corporations and their employees.

It would truly be a government of the people for the people, but this not something that would happen overnight nor is it something that could occur without the majority of Americans waking up to reality and taking a stand.

It now appears that it is only a matter of time until the government either drops the hammer and we find ourselves travelling rapidly down the dark road or the American people finally stand up and refuse to let our nation be destroyed any further.

Hopefully Americans will not wait to take action until the worst case scenario has unfolded, as it very well might be too late at that point.

I encourage all of my readers to spread this information to anyone and everyone and encourage them to actually look into it, check my sources and decide for themselves if they want to wait and ignore the signs or start making an effort to make our country, and the world, a better place for ourselves and future generations or just allow a once-great nation to become a system that would make the Soviets green with envy.
