I Woke Up

Robert Gates is a controversial character. Some want to filibuster the nomination of this man to be the new Secretary of Defense under the Barack Obama administration. Criticism against Gates are for legitimate reasons. Robert Gates has been a member of the establishment for over 2 decades. He has been implicated in many crimes of intelligence agencies. There is no evidence that he even refuses to promote a decisive, rapid withdrawal of American troops from the nation of Iraq. The question will be if the mostly Democratic Congress will fight against this nomination or capitulate. Presently, U.S. forces are still having the occupation and warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some have accused Robert Gates of working with certain people to try to delay the release of the U.S. hostages in Iran until Ronald Reagan was elected. Robert Gates played a role in the Iran Contra scandal. The Iran Contra scandal was about the US selling arms to Iran in exchange for money sent to America. This money would aid the Contras' battles against the Sandinistas in the country of Nicaragua. The Sandinistas were accused of being pro-Communist when both sides (including the Contras) were corrupt. Knight Of Malta Lieutenant Oliver North was a key player in the Iran Contra scandal. The Tower Commission and other evidence points to complicity of many high level government officials in the affair. This affair revolves around gun running and drug running. Gates was under William Casey in those events. Robert Gates is also a great friend of George H. W. Bush. That's why Gates worked under Bush 41. Gates was also one of the founders of the modern al-Qaeda network. In memoir entitled "From the Shadows," Gates admitted that increased funds to the Mujaheddin during the 1980's. Gates was the the Director of the CIA during the time the CIA funded radical Muslims to continue their holy war in Afghanistan (during the mid to late 1980's). These radical people would evolve into al-Qaeda. Al-Qaeda has always been a despoitory of FBI-trained patsies, psychotics like Moussaoui, and agents like Osama bin Laden. The Democratic leadership are just as controlled as the Republican leadership. It would be a shock if Gates is truly filibustered at all. Now, you have ex-ISI head Gul saying that 9/11 was an inside job. Now, the U.S. is trying to put Gul into a no-fly list. The U.S. government is even trying to accuse Gul of involvement with the Taliban and terrorism. That's shocking, but lies presented by the government are commonplace now.





There has been violence in Greece. There are 300 students who have battled police. They have attacked cars and stores in Greece because the police killed a 15 year old boy. There are riots in the Greek city of Salonika. There has been clashes in which thousands of people demonstrated against the police. The protestors also rampaged through Athens and other cities. The damage is huge as a result of the riots. Scores of businesses have been destroyed, cars have been torched, and there are burning barricades as well. Gangs looking like anarchists threw Molotov cocktails, rocks, and bottles toward the police. The officers realiated by creating a cloud of tear gas. This tear gas hung in the air, sending passers by scurrying for cover. The 15 year old boy was shot by the police in Exarchia. That is seen as the home base of the anarchists. The police said that one officer fired 3 warning shots and he was attacked by 30 youths in Exarchia. Witnesses believed the officer aim to shoot directly at the boy. The boy's name is Alexandros Andreas Grigoropoulos. 2 police officers have been arrested over the incident. The Greek Communist party announced plans for a mass rally in central Athens this evening. The PASOK socialist party have called for peaceful mass demonstration. Some other Greeks are calling for protests against pension reforms and Greece's economic policies. Some view the strikes as lasting for many days. Violence have spread across the country, as far as the northern city of Thessaloniki (including the tourist islands of Crete and Corfu, leaving at least 34 injured). Police detained 20 human beings in Athens. Some rioters called cops derogatory names. The self-styled anarchist movement partly has its roots in the resistance to Greece's 1967-74 military dictatorship. There is no need for riots at all. On the otherhand, the Greece government like any other government ought to reform themselves more.

There has been plenty of discussions about Mary, who is the mother of the earthly Jesus. The Roman Catholic Church probably has the most false, distorting, and blasphemous view of Mary. Even Muslims don't view Mary as nearly divine as the Papacy believes in. The Vatican not only believes that Mary was sinless. They also believe that Mary was the Queen of Heaven or that she was better than any other woman in human history. The Vatican also views Mary as the Mother of God. That's impossible since the Bible says that God doesn't have a mother at all. God is from everlasting to everlasting. God Almighty wasn't created at all. Some want to believe that you can't go through Jesus but through Mary. This views is called the Coredemptrix, which has been mentioned in Catholic doctrines for centuries (although it's not an official ex cathedra from the Pope as of yet). That's false of course. Mary ought to be respected in many ways. She is a courageus woman who risked her life in the midst of the dictatorial Roman Empire in order to concieve Jesus Christ into the world. She is one of the Jesus' most faithful supporters. She is a great inspiration for women from across the world. Mary should be respected as we should respect equally all saints of God. Yet, Mary ought not to be venerated and she is not the Mother of God at all. Salvation is brought about by the name of Jesus Christ. Therefore, some want to exploit Mary to establish unscriptural tenets about her and even promote New Age philosophies. Discernment is definitely necessary in this day and day, so we won't be swayed by false doctrine. The Papacy has a history of tons of false dogma. The good news is that folks are waking up. You can still know Jesus Christ as the Messiah and respect Mary at the same time. You don't have to say Mary is the Queen of Heaven, etc. to know that Mary is equal to every other saint throughout human history.



The Big Three Automakers are trying their best to earn a federal government bailout. It seems possible that the Big 3 could get their wish soon. That is why a proposed government car czar is proposed to oversee any bailout among Congress and the White House. The car executives feel that a bailout is the only means wherefore their companies would exist in a substainable way. The word czar implies that the government will have increased control over various industries. Over government regulation in dealing with the car industry along with only a few corporations controlling our economy is the precise definition of fascism. The question is not that whether something out to be done to help our automobile industry. Something does need to be done to solve our financial crisis. The real question is what should be done. Now, the policies of Washington, D.C. hasn't brought out the massive benefits that Congress have promised to the American people. Now, the Congress wants a $15 billion aid package to pull Detroit's Big Three automakers from the brink of collapse. This plan will give short term money to GM, Ford, and Chrysler. The catch is that after the initial money, the government will have a wholesale restructuring of the industry and have big restrictions on the big 3. One problem with a permanent bailout is that if you give the government all of the power in the economy, the government can manipuate it in how they wish. Not to mention that it was the government (including the FED) that started this crisis in the first place with NAFTA (which made our manufacturing jobs to be shipped overseas), GATT, the restriction of independent alternative energies, hyperinflation, and the list goes on and on. So, what is best to help our economy is a multifaceted approach. There should be independence in the economy, yet we ought to fight against any form of corruption or fraud.




Carol E. Lee, Nia-Malika Henderson from Yahoo News on December 8, 2008 described about how liberals voiced concerns about Barack Obama. These liberals believe that his cabinet nominees don't reflect their views. Actually, these nominees don't represent the views of conservative people either. Some of the liberals don't realize that many of his cabinet members are even more pro-abortion than Barack Obama is. Tim Carpenter is the national director of the Progressive Democrats of America. He wants at least one authentic progressive appointment. The funny thing is that people like Carpenter actually believe that Obama can solve nearly all of their problems. The truth is that politicans especially in that level can never solve all of our problems. The reality is that solutions must be at all levels including us individuals. Many of Barack Obama's cabinet members are from the Bill Clinton administration. There is no true major 2 party system at all. There is one major party using 2 arms. That's why the third parties are better than the Democrats and the Republicans put together. One arm of the 2 armed monopoly promotes authoritarianism in certain arenas like foreign policy (and being anti-civil liberties) and the other arm promotes authoritarianism in other areans (like global warming hysteria, gun rights suppression, government control over much of lives, etc.). That is why nothing is done in melamine poisons being subjected in baby formula or the evil war on terror continuing. Barack Obama has Hillary Clinton and Robert Gates in his proposed cabinet. Barack Obama supports the anti-freedom card check bill that would get rid of a secret ballot method of voting to form an union inside of companies. Some liberal gatekeepers like David Corn said that he has not yet reached for a pitchfork. There should be a wait and see attitude to what Barack Obama would really do. Yet, his legacy of his previous policies outline many things that I don't agree with. Obama is a puppet of course. I don't blame Barack Obama or George W. Bush for all of the problems going on in the country at all. Although, they are still responsible for much of the policies they enact. Now, the Republican and Democratic leadership are controlled by the same people in essence. These people are in the Vatican/Jesuits, the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, the Pilgrims, the Bilderbergers, and other entities.

Steven Ertelt from LifeNews.com on December 8, 2008 wrote that an YWCA official said that the group does not support the radical pro-abortion FOCA Bill. The deal is that a representative of the YWCA said something. This person said that the President of the YWCA was misquoted and this group doesn't support the Freedom of Choice Act or the FOCA. FOCA is a radical pro-abortion bill. This bill will ban any and all restrictions on abortion (including all pro-life laws) in all 50 states of America. Dr. Lorraine Cole is the CEO of the YWCA. Cole has been accused of saying in a press conference that she is pro-choice and agrees with Obama's support of the FOCA. The YWCA spokeswoman is Nancy Loving who said that CNS misquoted Cole. Nancy proclaims that the YWCA doesn't agree with FOCA at all. Nancy Loving told these words to OneNewsNow on Monday. Although, it's affirmative that Nancy Loving supports abortion. YWCA is a pro-abortion group. They claim that ripping a baby's body parts out is equated to choice. It isn't. Loving also claimed that a majority of men and women in the United States back abortion even though an October Marist College poll found 60 percent of Americans say that abortions should never be allowed or only in the rarest of circumstances, such as rape and incest. That constitute less than two percent of all abortions nationwide. A June Polling Company survey found pro-life Americans outnumber pro-abortion Americans by a 16 percent margin. Loving said that the YWCA haven't recieved much protests or critical emails from people dissenting with the YWCA's pro-abortion position. There has been controversy over Richard Cizik, who is the NAE Vice President. The NAE is short for the pro-establishment National Association of Evangelicals. Richard voted for Barack Obama, even though he's the most pro-abortion President in American history. Cizik appeared on the Fresh Air program on National Public Radio last Tuesday to admit to his deeds. Now, Rev. Keith Anderson, the president of NAE, issued a letter saying that the NAE is pro-life (and Richard's views don't reflect the positions of the NAE). People can vote for who they want, but you have to be consistent with your views. Abortion is always a threat not only to unborn children, but it's a threat to humanity in general.

The battles in Afghanistan continue. John Byrne from Raw Story on December 8, 2008 describe on how the Taliban is now encircling Kabul. John made it known that the Taliban has a presence of nearly three quarters of Afghanistan. They are starting to encircle the capital of Kabul according to a new thinkthank report. The report says that the Taliban holds a permanent presence in 72 percent of Afghansitan. Hamid Karzai (who is the leader of the Afghan government) dispute the figures as not credible. The Paris-based International Council on Security Development has offices in Afghanistan. This group outlines that the Taliban fighters have advanced from the south of the country and now carry out regular attacks in the west plus the northwest. The Taliban is having a resurgence in their power as the Afghan war has carried on. The Council describes how the Taliban hold power normally associated with a government in southern Afghanistan. “While the international community’s prospects in Afghanistan have never been bleaker, the Taliban has been experiencing a renaissance that has gained momentum since 2005,” the report said. “The West is in genuine danger of losing Afghanistan.” Barack Obama of course says that he will deploy tens of thousands of troops to Afghanistan. He wishes to use some of the troops from Iraq to be sent into Afghanistan. There are about 34,000 troops in Afghanistan now. The Pentagon wants to send 20,000 replacement troops there for 2009. Afghanistan have a long troubled history. Alexander the Great invaded Afghanistan during the 300's B.C. It has been oppressed by the Soviet Union and the Taliban. Once, the poppy crop has been wiped now by the Taliban. Now, Afghanistan supplies most of Europe's opium. So, it might take a long time for the nation of Afghanistan to improve itself in a dramatic fashion. Brzezinski, who is a member of the Trilateral Commission, was one of the globalists who promoted such a war in Central Asia in order to gain their resources, possibly fight against Russia, and form a new world order. Brzezinksi has a lust with his dream of controlling Eurasia via imperalism. The Afghanistan war the first American war of the 21st century.

Karl Ritter from the Associated Press on December 8, 2008 outlined the views of a Nobel winner. The spread of information on the Internet is astounding indeed. Some have used the Internet to forestall conflicts. Nobel literature prize winner Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clezio said that the Internet might have stopped Hitler. He said these words at a Nobel lecture to the Swedish Academy. Jean is a Frenchman. He commented that the introduction of this new Internet Technology could of prevented World War II. He thought of the Internet of possibly exposing Hitler's plans early on and the subsequent ridicule would of prevented Hitler from doing the crimes that he did. That's difficult to determine since the mindset of the 1930's is different than the mindset of 2008. Today, even with our problems, we are much more aware and harbor more yearning to know the intricate details of a person's life than back then. Jean still stressed that eradicating hunger and illiteracy are more important things to fight for in the Third World. Many developing nations have little Internet access and computers are treated as a luxury. Le Clezio called literacy and the struggle against hunger as connected parts of the same struggle to improve the developing world. Le Clezio was praised by the Nobel jury at the Swedish Academy for his “poetic adventure and sensual ecstasy” in such works as “Terra Amata,”"The Book of Flights” and “Desert.” Le Cezio's literature deal with adventures. That is why he promotes literacy for the Third World since books are inaccessible in some cases in that region of the world. Understanding literacy, math, and science are easy ways to increase your comprehension skills. Le Cezio is about to recieve the Nobel Prize in literature today. The Nobel Peace Prize is sent for a wide variety of reasons not just for medicine or economics. The prizes are handled out in Olso, Norway for the Nobel Peace Prize. The medicine, chemistry, physics and economics prizes are also handed out in Stockholm.




The Bush administration is about to be over by the time of January of 2009. One of the bad characteristics of the Bush legacy was its disregard for the US Constitution. Every government including the US government possess much hypocrispy in terms of promoting basic legal standards in the world. George W. Bush, Perino, and others lied and said that the U.S. doesn't torture. Now, it's been found the the U.S. government has tortured people from the world over. These people include the detainees at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Also, the West has allowed kidnapped people to be sent into certain countries like Egypt to be tortured. This immoral procedure is called rendition. US Department of Justice has torture memos that supported torture. One author of these DOJ memos was John Yoo is a professor of UC Berkeley Baolt Hall School of Law. Yoo is a person held in infamous by the critics of the Bush administration. John Yoo went as far as promoting the idea of torturing children testicles. That's why some in Berkeley's city council want Yoo to be charged with war crimes. Yoo promoted ways to enact policies that run contrary to the principles of US law and the Geneva Convention. Yoo can now influence people to support a possible pro-torture mindset as a Professor. There is irony in this situation. The US government prosecuted the son of Charles Taylor (he was the former ruler of Liberia) for torturing political opponents of his father's government. According to Carrie Johnson, who is a Washington Post staff writer, on October 30, 2008, a federal jury in Miami convicted Charles Taylor’s son, Chuckie, of torture.He may get life in prison. The deal is that American law is now being used by prosecutors against acts of torture committed in foreign lands. This is not only against the national sovereignity against other nations. This also represents hypocrispy since war crimes charges aren't being made against Yoo, Bush, Cheney, and others that made torture a reality worldwide. Even US attorney General Michael Mukasey said that he won't prosecute or even investigate the Bush regime officials who authorized torture and those who carrie out these sadistic acts. American laws should apply to the American government. This means that you can never trust the government 100% of the time. We should be opposed to torture and promote real civil liberties in our land of America.



Blackwater are going through more troubles. Del Quentin Wilber from the Washington Post on December 8, 2008 made known that Blackwater security guards are being charged with manslaughter. There are 5 guards being charged in the shooting deaths of 14 Iraqi civilians from last year. They are members of Blackwater worldwide security. Now, they have turned themselves in to federal authorities in Salt Lake City during the morning. The Justice Department unsealed a 35 count indictment against them. This is serious since this is a federal trial against the people. The shooting occured in September 16, 2007 in Baghdad's bustling Nisoor Square. All of them are charged with voluntary manslaughter, attempt to commit manslaugher, and using (plus discharging) a firearm during (and) in relation to a crime of violence. Jermey P. Ridgeway was a sixth security guard. He pledged guilty Friday to charges of voluntary manslaughter and the attempt to commit voluntary manslaughter. This is according to papers filed in court today. U.S. Attorney for the District said that none of the victims were armed or were an insurgent. This incident further raised questions about the need of security contractors in war zones. The findings of the Iraqi and US governments found that the security guards (who are all former military personnel) opened fire without a cause. They weren't charged with murder since the prosecutors said that it occured in a difficult situation. The guards of course say that they only fired in self defense. The guards' attorneys say that the indictments are politically motivated. I wish that those attorneys would say that to the faces of the Iraqi civilians' families that got murdered. Blackwater is headed by many pro-Vatican forces like Erik Prince and SMOM Schmidt. Blackwater has been caught in many scandals of corruption and unnecessary murder for many years now. That's all the more need to rein in the corrupt involving corrupt private contractors. Everything private isn't supremely wicked, but you always have to use caution in these events. Once I was blind to the ways of the world. Now, I woke up about the new world order and the evils in society. The good news is that anyone can wake up, follow God, and do what is right.
