Egypt: Controlled Chaos or True Liberation?

I don’t know about you, but I’m watching all this unfold in Egypt with a kind of nervous scepticism. While many are saying this is the beginning of an uprising chain-reaction that will bring in new life and hope to other oppressed nations.

I hope so, but I have my doubts.

I hate to rain on anyone’s parade, especially regarding hope. I do have hope for humanity and we are waking up at an astounding rate. That will continue whether it manifests in physical uprisings like Egypt or not.

It’s just that people are so easily fooled.

The Illuminati news organ AP (Associated Propaganda) is already pushing global puppet ElBaradei to the forefront again in the very first announcement of Mubarak handing power over to the military:

“In these grave circumstances that the country is passing through, President Hosni Mubarak has decided to leave his position as president of the republic,” a grim-looking Suleiman said. “He has mandated the Armed Forces Supreme Council to run the state. God is our protector and succor.”

Nobel Peace laureate Mohammed ElBaradei, whose young suporters were among the organizers of the protest movement, told The Associated Press, “This is the greatest day of my life.”

“The country has been liberated after decades of repression,” he said adding that he expects a “beautiful” transition of power. (source)

And that’s how it works.

It all gets co-opted, whatever percentage of the uprising is genuine–and I agree it’s a lot. Suddenly the protesters are the good guys as the press “guides” you into the desired outcome by staged interviews with selected people giving you “the wonderful liberating solution”.

We all know it’s staged. Many of them know it’s staged. But this collective consciousness called “the world” is a thoroughly manipulated creation that has tremendous inertia and power over anyone not fully conscious. That’s just the state of today’s dumbed-down and mind controlled society, sorry to say.

Case In Point – 9/11

If the so-called “greatest country on earth” can so easily be completely hoodwinked with a scam as obvious as 9/11 and the rise of phony terrorism, who’s to stand?

Yes, people are waking up. And it’s wonderful.

But where’s the public outrage here in the U.S? What “demonstration” gets any publicity about anything against the government any more, unless it’s a staged event? Look at the Tea Party movement. Now it’s OK to talk about because they co-opted that as well–and their “new, improved groundswell” reps are now dutifully pushing for the extension of the Patriot Act.

Before this the Tea Party movement was completely unreported because they didn’t have control over it yet.

I know, that’s hopefully the signal Egypt is giving, to get out there and you’ll get results, and that others will hopefully follow. Maybe. When push comes to shove people will act out. Just don’t ever forget WHO’s doing the pushing and shoving. And that they know what they’re doing and why. The WHO didn’t cut back their food rations in Egypt without knowing they’d hit a tipping point–and their trained operatives were all in place to show they just how to “revolt.”

As with WikiLeaks, be careful

If I sound cynical I apologize. But I think this is realistic. We have to stay very awake and aware and not get swept into the emotion of anything, whether it seems good or bad. I have friends who were so jacked by the WikiLeaks revelations thinking it was going to bring the system down, but when I told them be careful, it’s very likely a psyop or will be turned into one, it was a complete bummer for them. Turns out that was the case.

It’s not that we shouldn’t get excited at victories, we just need to stay sober and vigilant like never before.

Cautious optimism comes to mind.

Playing the Global Warming Card

Cassandra Anderson
Morph City

Man-made global warming (also known as climate change) claims have been thoroughly discredited by the "scientists" who perpetrated them through leaked e-mails in the 'Climategate' scandal. It seems like it should be a dead issue, but the truth is that too many resources have been invested in this scam to allow it to fade away. The global warming myth is thriving internationally, on the federal level and in state and local governments.

The global warming myth was popularized by Margaret Thatcher (under the influence of a UN depopulation advocate) and was designed to break US power, usher nuclear weapons into the UK and to punish Thatcher's political enemies.

Carbon dioxide is natural and beneficial to plants. Rises in carbon dioxide follow temperature rise. It is a lie that the cause and effect are the reverse.

IT NEVER ENDS: Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan & Prudential Steal From The Poor To Earn Subsidies On Luxury Hotels

The recently renovated Blackstone Hotel in Chicago is a shining example of the great taxpayer ripoff in action - all courtesy of your favorite too big to be failures.

Please take a few minutes to read the full investigative piece at Bloomberg. There's much more detail beyond what we're excerpting below.

Rich Take From Poor as U.S. Subsidy Law Funds Luxury Hotels

Source - Bloomberg

The landmark Blackstone Hotel in downtown Chicago, which has hosted 12 U.S. presidents, opened in 2008 after a two-year, $116 million renovation. Inside the Beaux Arts structure, built in 1910, buffed marble staircases greet guests spending up to $699 a night for rooms with views of Lake Michigan.

What’s surprising isn’t the opulent makeover: It’s how the project was financed. The work was subsidized by a federal development program intended to help poor communities.

The biggest beneficiary of taxpayer help for the Blackstone revamp was Prudential Financial Inc., the second-largest U.S. life insurer. The company got $15.6 million in tax credits from the U.S. Department of the Treasury for helping to fund the project, according to Chicago city records, Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its March issue.

JPMorgan Chase & Co., the second-largest U.S. bank by assets, also took in money by serving as a lender and the monitor of Blackstone construction financing, city records show.

Since 2003, some of the world’s biggest financial companies, including Goldman Sachs Group Inc., U.S. Bancorp, JPMorgan Chase and Prudential, have taken advantage of a federal subsidy that will cost taxpayers $10.1 billion -- and most of the public has never heard of it.

Investors have used the program, called New Markets Tax Credits, to help build more than 300 upscale projects, including hotels, condominiums, office buildings and a car museum, on streets far from poverty, according to Treasury Department records released through a federal Freedom of Information Act request.

The Blackstone adjoins Chicago’s cultural hub, one of the most vibrant in the nation, and is miles from the city’s neediest neighborhoods. Prudential invested $9.3 million and made $30.4 million in loans, according to Chicago records.

Under New Markets rules, firms get a credit of 39 cents on the dollar, paid over seven years, for cash or loans they put in. For its contribution, Prudential collected $15.6 million in credits, according to a July 2008 JPMorgan project oversight report filed with Chicago.

Goldman targeted tracts on the upswing in Pittsburgh and Portland, Oregon, when the firm got its first New Markets investment authorizations in 2002. In Pittsburgh, $30.5 million of a $75 million Goldman investment authorization went to a shopping center in the East Liberty neighborhood.

The mall’s tract was in the midst of recovery with city renewal efforts that had already helped lure a Whole Foods Market Inc. grocery store.

Goldman brought in PNC Financial Services Group Inc., the sixth-largest U.S. bank by deposits, to help finance the project. PNC invested $30.5 million in equity and loans to receive $11.9 million in tax credits. The subsidy was $1.3 million more than PNC’s cash investment of $10.6 million.

Banks, lawyers and consultants took fees totaling $9 million -- 28 percent of the total project cost of $32.7 million, according to city records. Goldman’s share, for overseeing the project’s finances, will be $1.6 million over eight years, according to Goldman spokesman Stephen Cohen.

NJ - Fair Tax group lining up to file lawsuit

The Princeton Fair Tax Revaluation Commission, a group of citizens who are fighting the 2010 revaluation of the Princetons, are preparing to proceed with legal action to challenge what they call unjust assessments.

The group is alleging the revaluation, conducted by Appraisal Systems Incorporated, was flawed and led to inflated land values and deflated home values. This, in turn, has caused smaller homes on small lots to see large increases in their property taxes — some as much as 60 percent increases — and larger homes to loose value and decrease in taxable value.

Residents are puzzled over the skyrocketing of land values, which in some cases went up three or four times and how the assessment company came to the amount of the land value.

”There is enough evidence of failure on the part of ASI and the assessor and the township committee that they deserve to be brought to a conclusion that overcomes the clearly unfair redistribution of the assessment,” said Dick Reichart, a township resident whose assessment went up. He also found irregularities within his neighbors that ranged from 30 percent to 50 percent tax increases.

Over 100 under investigation in Iceland bank crash probe

Iceland’s Special Prosecutor into the banking crisis says that well over a hundred people are being investigated by his office.

Olafur Thor Hauksson told Frettatiminn that well over a hundred people are legally classified as suspects in his team’s investigations into the causes of the Icelandic banking crisis — adding that the number is set to increase quickly in the near future.

So far, the Special Prosecutor has only brought charges in two cases: one over a company called Exeter Holdings and the other against Baldur Gudlaugsson, the former Ministry of Finance undersecretary.

Five people have so far been taken into custody since the prosecutor started work in early 2009.

However, Hauksson and his former chief assistant Eva Joly have regularly stressed that the investigation will take a long time. Joly told the press it could well be four years before satisfactory results are reached. She also stressed that to rush the cases would probably lead to their failure.


Globoctopus Tightens its Grip.

Dog Poet Transmitting......

The Egyptians are doing what is necessary to force change. The workers are striking. This is the key action necessary to bring down a government when you lack the guns and the media. No government can endure a protracted shutdown of the economy. It was through the economy and the currency that corporations and a certain criminal banking country took over control of so many governments in the first place. I believe it is a principal law of most countries that the government cannot be ruled by a foreign power. Trafficking with influence for gain is a form of treason. It is widespread now, throughout the western world and the reason the economies are crumbling, due to the activities of corporations and banks.

The predictable behavior of corporations is what led to the definition of fascism as being, ‘government under corporate control’. In America, the single biggest evidence that this is so, came about when the highest court in the land ruled that it was legal for corporations to buy the government. A decade earlier they were the last gasp fixer, for a stolen election. Nothing has been the same since and quality of life is in the toilet, except for the few who are living it up at the expense of the many. When an economy shuts down, by the will of the people who turn the wheels, everything comes to a halt.

Now, it seems that the Egyptian government is torturing the protesters in rather large numbers. This defines them as demons in the flesh. They are doing this at the behest of Israel and The United States, who had previously used Egypt in its extraordinary rendition program; just in case you want to know who the bad guys are in all of this, it’s not the Egyptians. It is their government acting under the requests or orders of a foreign power.

Just now, word is being given that Mubarak will step down and also that Suleiman will not replace him. So far, this is a beautiful blueprint for all nations presently laboring under dictators or corporate and banking fascism. What may surface is something else. My belief is that revolution is meant to sweep the planet and nothing intended by the ruling elite is going to work out the way they want it to. The time has come and they are all meant to fall but… the fact is that I don’t know. I don’t know.

Now Mubarak says he won’t step down but will transfer his power to a man, every bit as psychopathic and ruthless as himself. It all comes down to the army and what they will and will not do. Mid level commanders of the military are deserting to join the protesters and I have heard that some in the army have said they will train their guns on their commanders before they will train them on the people. Anything can happen at this point. The people are not going to back down, so that means some incidents must surely occur and they will be the indicators of what will follow. I suspect that any collision between forces, that results in any significant loss of life, will cause the army to stop and turn against the government.

What we are dealing with here, is nothing short than the transformation of the world as we know it. It is going to sweep the Arab world and from there it will sweep outward in all directions. In the meantime, Israel is trying to plug the leaks in the dike but has only so many fingers. Members of her illustrious nation are calling for a Tiananmen Square scenario to bring the Egyptians back into line with the will of a xenophobic, misanthropic little country in the Middle East. Nothing is going to stop the wave of change that is sweeping over the world and those who are seeking to restrain and resist it will be engulfed in the tsunami.

The ruling elite of psychopaths; bankers, corporate high rollers, aristocrats and political and religious whores are all in the crosshairs of history. The change is impacting from without and impacting upon the change within. The nature of each creature is crying out the shape and intent of the identity of its being, as the force of the cosmos lights upon it and illuminates it with the ray of revealing truth. We’re all going through the scanner and there’s no lying about what you are powerless to conceal.

All of what we are seeing at the moment is the exposure of those plotting to route and rule the world. They’ve had a game plan in action for a long time. Not long ago they ramped up the speed but, make no mistake, this has been in the works for awhile. They are ‘all in’ as the saying goes and there are no possibilities of action that are being overlooked. They are determined to keep the demon ship on course, for an empire of the few over the prison planet of the many. Of course, they intend to reduce the overall population by at least half or more.

They’ve got their big blueprint for world enslavement laid out on the boardroom table constructed of endangered wood, which is polished to a high gloss from resins made from human blood. You can’t imagine the thoughts that move through their heads, or the degree of treacheries dreaming, behind the half-shuttered reptilian eyes. Some of them know what they’re up against but most of them don’t. It’s being hidden from their sight, because the movie has to play out to the final scene. There it will remain as testimony for the coming age, against the return of these horrible fiends

Look upon the world at this time and marvel. You can see the plans hatch and fail in real time. You can see the wave, as it rises up from the plains and sweeps around the world into the hearts of every living thing, causing them to vibrate and cry out the truth concerning themselves. We are all in a state of continuing revelation. It is all coming out and it is all being uncovered. There has never been a better time than now, to be stalwart and possessed of a true heart. That will be uncovered too.

Overlooked, ignored or badly planned against, comes the shifting of the poles and the outrage of Mother Nature, whose patience has gone beyond her will to contain herself. Civilization is 180 degrees off course. Corrections must be made according to a mathematical imperative. The bowstring is overdrawn and repenting of the pull. The days of prophecy are upon us.

All of the external changes are being mirrored by internal counterparts. The grand dance has begun and everything we have known is in transformation. Meanwhile, in Sleepyville, the TV churns out its unending cycle of mind rot. This is also a part of the design of those bent on global enslavement. They not only want it all …and for you to have as little as can be arranged, they want you to suffer too. It makes them feel privileged and powerful. The plug is about to be pulled from the wall and some real entertainment is in store for when they immediately turn upon each other. We are going to see some very unscheduled programs inserting themselves into the airwaves, without commercial break.

My heart goes out to all of those caught up in the turmoil of these times. I am powerless to affect it and can only affect myself. It is my hope that all of us will focus on what we can do and be about it with a will. It’s just going to get stronger and swifter by the moment, until one stands aghast at the power and the speed of it. The masks are going to come off.

All of the public preening and jockeying for position has a point to it. We are seeing our oppressors at work on the stage. They are defining themselves to the nth degree. They are exposing themselves and even accelerating their bad behavior, as if they could somehow catch the wave that is destined to plow them under. It’s not going to happen but a great many other things are going to happen and where you wind up is going to have a lot to do with where you were headed all along. If you’re off course, you had better get on course, because the margins are unforgiving.
