This has always been one of their battle plans. I don't want to be used as a useful idiot for the cause of the destruction of my country.
What's your opinion on false flag events. Do you not think that a group in our own government would not employ an EMP for their own agenda? I don't know how we would immediately know.
My decision has been made that when the country falls apart by whatever means I'll lay low and follow the prophet. I won't be a "tool" to either party, the red beast or the whore. I'm not playing in their "arena".

Mark, you wrote:" If the Assyrians do attack our land with an EMP and people automatically blame the attack on our own govt officials like Alex Jones most definitely will this would play right into the hands of this Assyrian enemy. "
You start out with an "IF" but then proceed as though this will be the case. (that only the Assyrians are the ones who will attack us.) I'm not willing to take that hypothetical as a basis.
Unless you are saying that the latter-day Gadiantons, the "evil schemers" who "oppress us with burdensome taxes" -- are in fact beyond suspicion in case of an EMP attack on the US. That no way would they do this to their "own people."
Is this what you are saying, Mark?
DrJones wrote:Actually, I don't think you answered my question, Mark. Clearly, the red Beast/Assyrians will prevail ULTIMATELY in a great battle, but that was not my question.
I'm asking about near-term (an EMP on the US might be milder, as I said, if from the Gadiantons) and specifically this: Would you say that the "evil schemers" who "oppress us with burdensome taxes" -- are in fact beyond suspicion in case of an EMP attack on the US?

Frankly I don't think anyone is beyond suspicion Doc. There is so much intrigue going on throughout the globe that nothing would surprise me anymore. Bear in mind that I still believe communist operatives will play a big part in this type of attack on our shores. Now whether these communists are living in our country or are living thousands of miles away in far distant lands is anyones guess. We shall find out soon enough..
Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of this deal is the “Super Congress” provision. This is nothing more than a way to disenfranchise the majority of Congress by denying them the chance for meaningful participation in the crucial areas of entitlement and tax reform. It cedes power to draft legislation to a special commission, hand-picked by the House and Senate leadership. The legislation produced by this commission will be fast-tracked, and Members will not have the opportunity to offer amendments. Approval of the recommendations of the “Super Congress” is tied to yet another debt ceiling increase. This guarantees that Members will face tremendous pressure to vote for whatever comes out of this commission-- even if it includes tax increases. This provision is an excellent way to keep spending decisions out of the reach of members who are not on board with the leadership's agenda.

1 Now behold, I will show unto you that they did not establish a king over the land; but in this same year, yea, the thirtieth year, they [Gadiantons] did destroy upon the judgment-seat, yea, did murder the chief judge of the land. [Let's hope this does not happen!!]
2 And the people were divided one against another; and they did separate one from another into tribes, every man according to his family and his kindred and friends; and thus they did destroy the government of the land.
3 And every tribe did appoint a chief or a leader over them; and thus they became tribes and leaders of tribes.
4 Now behold, there was no man among them save he had much family and many kindreds and friends; therefore their tribes became exceedingly great.

Decentralization and Secession as a Viable Alternative to the Tyrannical Status Quo
Scott Lazarowitz
Activist Post
Because of the continuing fiascos in Washington; activists on the left and on the right, libertarians and socialists, will have to begin to face the fact that looking to the central planning elites in Washington for answers is futile . . . even counter-productive.
The debt ceiling will be raised for the 75th time since 1962, no real spending cuts will happen, taxes will again be raised, and happy days are here again for the politicians, the life-long bureaucrats, the industrial lobbyists and lawyers, and, especially, the Wall Street fat cats.
“Well, the next time they will implement their promised reforms,” say those who are still faithful in the central planning bureaucrats. But our chosen representatives do not fulfill their promises, and they never will. Sooner or later, we are going to have to face the reality that central planning is a promise that can never be kept.
I have been trying to get that message across, especially in my March 2010 prediction that the 2010 elections would be just another rearranging of deck chairs (and I was right).
But it appears that too many people just have blind faith in central planning and the fantasy that “reforming” an inherently flawed system could ever work.
Faith in central planning, despite all the destruction the U.S. government has wrought, is something that needs to be overcome.
Food activists have begun to understand the benefits of decentralization, as have those promoting the decentralizing of money and banking.
Many people are sympathetic to the idea of decentralization/state secession, similar to the corrections made in Eastern Europe in the early 1990s with the breakup of the Soviet Union. However, many people are unnecessarily concerned about their Social Security future, and with national security. And it has been a mistake to rely on the U.S. Supreme Court to ensure justice.
But in the long run, freedom and independence are far preferable to our current tyrannical centralization. Compromise is impossible.
First, we must confront the truth about Social Security, and ask whether a government-controlled, government-mandated retirement scheme even has any moral legitimacy, let alone whether it makes any economic sense.
People need to understand how they and future generations have been cheated by a government that takes your earnings and savings, and forces you to forfeit your right to control your own retirement future. Yes, these are distressing truths to many people, but if we can never get back what was stolen from us in our first several decades of adulthood, the people need to demand – at the very least – the restoration of their children and grandchildren’s right to keep what they earn and save.
Second, Americans need to let go of their faith in our constantly bumbling national security central planners. For a century now, our national security central planners have been corrupt, incompetent, warmongers, and imbeciles – anything but adept at keeping us safe.
If people actually think about it, they might then realize the absurdity in giving professional bureaucrats and politicians a monopoly on protecting a territory of thousands of square miles with a population of 300 million people from foreign aggression. Instead, what has happened is that such central planning rulers have used that monopolistic government and military apparatus to act aggressively against foreign nations, which is what has provoked the foreign nations to act against us, thus making us less safe.
And third, giving such a centralized bureaucracy a monopoly in ultimate judicial decision-making has not protected the people from injustice. Decisions by the Supreme Court have increasingly exemplified those of a banana republic. Most recently, the Supreme Court, in an 8-1 decision, backed the power of the police to break into the homes of innocents without a warrant and with impunity.
Moreover, such a powerful compulsory centralized bureaucracy has tended to attract the worst amongst us; those who are lacking in moral scruples. Of course giving such an agency the power to seize wealth and property from the people is bound to attract those who have no problem with coveting others’ wealth and property. And of course giving some people the privilege of being above the law, and the power to initiate acts of aggression against others, will attract those of an anti-social bent.
The distasteful reality is, as with the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, centralizing power and especially consolidating more power to the executive is destructive and dangerous. The U.S. has become increasingly totalitarian, with more centralized government control over the people -- from FDR’s New Deal and his stealing gold from Americans, the Federal Reserve and Richard Nixon’s closing the gold window, to more recently George W. Bush’s police state DHS, TSA and the retaliation from Bush and Obama’s aggressions overseas.
People need to face the reality of central planning’s destruction of America, and do what the states of the Soviet Union did: Not “reform” but abolish that central power altogether.
Activists who are serious in their intention of freeing themselves and their families and their progeny from the tyranny of the Washington Leviathan, should advocate that states secede and regain their independence and sovereignty that is their right to have.
No central government has any moral authority to compel any individual or groups of people to belong to any association which they did not voluntarily join.
With independent states and no central power, the people’s right to control their own retirement
savings and their medical matters would not be infringed, and neither would their right to bear arms. In the case of any one state in which a government violates such rights of its population, the people have the freedom to move to a better, freer state. Currently, with all Americans under the compulsory authority of the federal government, it is difficult or impossible for people even to actually move to a different country to escape from the U.S. government’s further intrusions and tyranny.
And with independent states and no central power, the people’s right to self-defense would not be usurped by such a central power. The people of the states would have the right to arm themselves, have militias and whatever weaponry they believe is necessary to protect them from foreign aggression.
With independent states and no central power, there would be little to no ability (or desire) for any one American state to deliberately act aggressively against and provoke foreigners.
And, economically, what would happen if we got rid of all the compulsory, monopolistic federal bureaucracies – the Federal Reserve, IRS, HHS, FDA, EPA, TSA and DHS to name just a few – and required that all people live under the rule of law and that no one individual or business receive any extra privileges from the State?
The people of the states would have the freedom to discover and make use of natural resources that exist within their own territories, and not be compelled to be “dependent on foreign oil.”
There would be no federal raw milk raids, no drug raids, and no S.W.A.T. teams breaking into homes and murdering people for student loan defaults. And no Big Farms would get any special privileges at the expense of smaller family farms.
And the people would have the freedom to do business with whatever medium of exchange suits them -- The Bernank be damned.
Americans need to have faith in the kind of free-market capitalism that raised the standard of living of all people of all walks of life.
The ruling class is expressing the same kind of fear-mongering with the debt ceiling issue that they expressed during the Wall Street Bailout fiasco, with the mainstream media acting as their obedient stenographers. This should be seen as yet another example of how self-serving the elites in Washington really are – Republicans as well as Democrats. Because the truth is, they will never make things better, only worse.
Among the painful truths of the day is that central planning doesn’t work... and it’s destroying America. We need to get rid of it.

I just looked on YouTube, Steve. I looked at a few different copies and they all showed the same thing...and I thought I was still seeing the gun in the drivers hand. What caught my attention was during one viewing I thought I saw the driver point the gun, then pull the gun back, then point it again at the time of firing. I paused the video at the first time the gun was pointing - the gun shape was actually sunlight striking the head of the passenger making the highlighted gun shape - it looks like the sunlight must have been passing thru tree branches or something...then at the point the gun is being pointed again - it is light hitting the passengers head, not a gun. I went back to the video you had linked and I stand by that. I don't believe there is a gun.
Look at frame 315. That tells the tale.
OK, so I googled video footage of JFK's assassination, and the idea that the driver of the limousine, Bill Greer, shot Pres. Kennedy is old, and there is good footage showing that the thing that looked like the gun is instead the sun glint of the other secret agent's hair, and you can see Greer's hands still on the bottom of the steering wheel. Note in this first one that when the image is stopped to show you the hair glint in the horrible frame where JFK's head is blown open, you can see the path of the bullet coming from above and to the right. No one points this out, but it's there as plain as day.

And here's a great one -- you have to scroll down to see the better and better views of this -- this one isn't a youtube, but as you scroll down you'll see the deal:

So the driver didn't shoot Pres. Kennedy, but he was obviously shot from different angles, one being from behind and the other more in front of him, which threw him backwards.
Declaration of the Occupation of New York City
As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass injustice, we must not lose sight of what brought us together. We write so that all people who feel wronged by the corporate forces of the world can know that we are your allies.
As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known.
They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage.
They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses.
They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace based on age, the color of one’s skin, sex, gender identity and sexual orientation.
They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system through monopolization.
They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless nonhuman animals, and actively hide these practices.
They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions.
They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education, which is itself a human right.
They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut workers’ healthcare and pay.
They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the culpability or responsibility.
They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to get them out of contracts in regards to health insurance.
They have sold our privacy as a commodity.
They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the press.
They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit.
They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce.
They have donated large sums of money to politicians supposed to be regulating them.
They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil.
They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save people’s lives in order to protect investments that have already turned a substantive profit.
They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive ingredients in pursuit of profit.
They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media.
They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with serious doubts about their guilt.
They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad.
They have participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas.
They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government contracts. *
To the people of the world,
We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge you to assert your power.
Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space; create a process to address the problems we face, and generate solutions accessible to everyone.
To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of direct democracy, we offer support, documentation, and all of the resources at our disposal.
Join us and make your voices heard!

No news blackout. Go to Drudge's site. This is his top story and he lists protests in Boston, LA, Chicago, Seattle and Denver too.
the internet is the one source that is not completely under the gads control, that's why Net Neutrality is going into effect in the next few weeks. The gubmint can't have free speech on such a large scale, the internet is becoming to big of a threat to the propagandists.
The number of people who believe conspiracy theories is staggering. According to various recent surveys, a third of Brits believe Princess Diana was murdered (a Daily Mail survey)... nearly half of all Americans do not believe global warming is man-made (a Yale University survey) and 84 per cent of them believe 9/11 was an inside job (a New York Times/CBS poll).
9/11 was the justification for the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan amongst other things. A rule of thumb that I follow is that if people in positions of authority make significant decisions that appear to be in conflict with obvious logic, then they are either grossly incompetent or have a hidden agenda. The invasion and occupation of Afghanistan have so far lasted ten years, cost hundreds of billions of dollars and have caused hundreds of thousands of predictable deaths. All of this is purportedly to prevent terrorist attacks from a group that supposedly consists of a few dozen people who could plan attacks from almost any location in the world. Judge for yourselves - gross incompetence or hidden agenda.
