American Life



We have been at this road before. There is much more agitation for the war with Iran in 2012 than ever before. America warns Iran to not fight back against an Israeli attack. The U.S. warship USS Abraham Lincoln remains in the Strait of Hormuz in the midst of huge tensions. The same people creating an unjust war in Iraq are trying to create another unjust war in Iran. Iran says that no more aircraft carriers should transit the sensitive oil choke point. Washington wants to join an Israeli attack if Iran dares to fight back in any way. The Strator’s latest naval update map shows the USS Lincoln hasn’t moved from its position having transited the Strait for almost 2 weeks ago. The USS Carl Vinson has remained in its position. This could mean that US Naval official agree with the strategic position of the 2 warships as Israel prepares to launch an attack in Iran. America could swiftly be embroiled in such a war. U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said that Israeli has a high chance of attacking Iran in April, May, or June (according to the Washington Post). Panetta might have been told of this when Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barack postponed a planned U.S./Israeli military exercise that had been scheduled for May. America might finalize its preparation plans for supporting an Israeli assault on Iran’s nuclear facilities. The Washington Post mentions that the Obama administration will stand by while Tel Aviv leads the attack. The U.S. will be overtly involved if Iran hits U.S. asset or if Israel’s population centers were hit. That means that if Iran defends itself in anyway, America will attack. The President said that America won’t put anything off the table in dealing with Iran from a foreign policy standpoint. “I can’t say clearly enough that what the U.S. has signaled in Ignatius’ report is that if Iran is attacked, it may not strike back against its attacker,” writes Richard Silverstein. “If it does, the U.S. will rain down hellfire and damnation on it. This is frightening beyond measure. I’ve never known the U.S. to lay down such a principle which virtually assures our joining in a war against Iran. Israeli policymakers will be delighted to read these words.” Operation Orchard occurred by in 2007. This was when Israel attacked a Syrian nuclear reactor. The Assad regime didn’t retaliate. Yet, Iran isn’t Syria. Iran has an army, air force, and Navy. Iran’s Air Force is 2nd only to Israel in the region. Tehran has a very powerful surface to air missile capability. A third U.S. aircraft carrier called the USS Enterprise added more firepower in the 5th Fleet region after it completes a training exercise in the Atlantic Ocean. British and French warships are also in place to provide further back up. The nuclear submarine USS Annapolis and the destroyer USS Momesen might come into the Persian Gulf (this action can build up to a possible attack on Iran). Iran warned that any more U.S. warships transiting the narrow passageway would not be tolerated. Yet, the Lincoln and the Vinson are sailing in the Strait in recent weeks. Tehran’s threat to close the Strait of Hormuz can potentially cause havoc on global oil markets (the USA calls this market red line). America is now doing its biggest naval exercises in over a decade. The Bold Alligator is taking place now. This is about a Navy/Marine Corps exercise. It’s taking place off the coast of Virginia and North Carolina. This is definitely related to gearing to simulating a naval conflict with Iranian forces despite official claims to the contrary. According to Israeli intelligence outfit Debka File, the United States has placed 50,000 troops to be ready for “any contingency” by March, with another 50,000 on the way, on two strategic islands at the southern exit of the Strait of Hormuz. In addition, 15,000 troops are also on standby in Kuwait. Tehran is set to conduct more naval exercises in the Strait later this month. Experts estimate that around 1,000 mines would be required to block the 55km wide passage and that Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have already stockpiled 2,000 mines for that very purpose. So, the war on Iran plan is here. Haven’t you noticed that the establishment liberals are silent on black Libyans being lynched and they are silent on heavily on exposing the war mongering against Iran? Libya isn't a fruitful nation after NATO/Western attacks on it. Libya is experiencing a civil war now with thousands of people being killed after Gaddafi being murdered (without a trial). They are no different than the wolves (or neo-conservatives).


Mitt Romney is the man to beat in the Republican nomination process. He is supported by the establishment. If he wins Nevada, then it will be very difficult for the other Republican candidates to defeat him. Newt Gingrich still wants to defeat him. All 4 Republican candidates for President are in the race. This race is more interesting than in even the 2008 Republican nomination process. There has been ups and down. More and more Republicans are allying with Mitt Romney, because of electability. They believe that he is the only man capable of politically defeating President Barack Obama during the 2012 election. Now, the leadership of the Evangelicals wants to support Mitt Romney. Some “wolf in sheep clothing” Evangelical leaders are trying to convince their people to accept the lie that Mormonism is just a branch of Christianity (or that it’s harmless). I believe in unity to fight against injustice, but I don’t believe in unity to support a false religion that wasn’t even created by Jesus Christ at all. I want to mention this. Just because a man disagrees with a religious belief, doesn’t mean that a man desires to express bigotry toward that creed. I don’t agree with some views, but I don’t hate people who adhere to those specific ideologies. In this generation, some folks falsely equate any form of dissent as bigotry (when we have the subsequent freedom of speech right to express our views forthrightly). LDS President Hinckley said that: “Mormon beliefs about God and Jesus Christ make them Christians, no matter what critics say.” This is false since Mormon teaches a total different view about God and Jesus from orthodox Christianity. The Mormon god and his son (Jesus Christ) are flesh and blood humans. They (according to Mormons) lived Perfected lives on other planets in other lifetimes in order to give them the justification to rule the Planet Earth. The Scriptures are rather clear that the Father is Spirit. The Father didn’t need to be perfected since he was perfect since the infinite past. In Mormonism, the Virgin Mary gave birth to Jesus by the Father having sex with Mary, which is blasphemy to say the least. Mormonism denies that the Father and the Son are Omnipresent, omniscient, or omnipotent. Mormonism denies that the Father and the Son existed in the eternity past. Mormonism was created by the Kabbalist & Freemason Joseph Smith. Mormonism teaches baptism for the dead and they teach that a good Mormon can potentially become a god (which is one secret doctrine of many high level Freemasons).  Mormons teach that people who earn godhood via good works can now live on a planet near the great star Kolob to create spirit babies. The religion of Mormon believes that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers (and that Jesus became the savior of the world by a vote of a council of gods).  So, Mormonism teaches that the Father God was once a man, which goes against mainstream Christian dogma. It is another blasphemy for some Mormons to teach a restorationist ideology. This means that the gates of hell did prevail against the Church and teaching that all power and authority were lost until God chose Joseph Smith to be his holy prophet to restore all things and lead this last dispensation of time.  I am not fascist. So, I don’t agree with suppressing people’s religious liberty rights if they are a Mormon (or any other background). I just don’t agree with the Mormon religion in a peaceful fashion. Glen Beck is another neo-con (like Romney) and Beck is another Mormon. People already completely realize Glen Beck’s controversial & reactionary ideologies (plus commentaries). The time is too late to play some games. It’s fine to promote equality and equality of opportunity of everyone of every background. Yet, we should not compromise our core beliefs and our core ethics in order for us to promote some watered down theology. True spirituality and true religion is strong and solid as a rock. Now, the Presidential race will be interesting. Even some conservative establishment figures have criticized Romney over his comments on the poor.

Many scholars wrote about Atlantis. The Hellenistic Jewish philosopher Philo back in the early 1st century A.D. wrote about the destruction of Atlantis in his “On The Eternity of the World,” xxvi. 141. Philo wrote that the island of Atlantis was large in size. He wrote about Plato’s views on Atlantis about how Atlantis was destroyed by an extraordinary earthquake plus inundation (or flooding). The Christian writer Tertullian believed that Atlantis was once real and the island was equal to Libya or Asia. The early Christian Arnobius believed that Atlantis once existed, but he blamed its destruction on pagans. To Christians then and now, Atlantis describes the pre-Flood World (or the time before the Biblical story of Noah's Flood). One writer named Ignatius L. Donnelly wrote about Atlantis in his 1882 publication entitled “Atlantis: The Antedeviluvan Word.” He stimulated much more popular interest in Atlantis. He believed that all known ancient civilizations came from Atlantis, which he saw as a technologically sophisticated culture. He made a fantasy like assumption that the Atlanteans invented gunpowder and the compass thousands of years before the rest of the world invented written language. Although, it is true that ancient man had advanced knowledge of math, technoology, and science. In other word, ancient man didn't lack an intellectual curiousity. Ancient man was very, very intelligent indeed. So, I want to make that point absolutely clear. By the late 19th century, there were stories about the lost continents of Mu and of course Lemuria. Most probably Mu and Lemuria related to the evolution of the continents from the large supercontinent of Pangaea. All nations back thousands of years ago believed in a Primordial Paradise where Man originated and developed the first civilization ever. This story is found in the Bible, the Koran, the Rig Veda, the Puranas, and other works.



Planned Parenthood and the Komen Foundation are having controversy. The Komen Foundation CEO wants to support research to defeat breast cancer. The Komen Foundation once ended taking funding from Planned Parenthood (a group created by a white supremacist, a Klan supporter, an eugenicist, and a population control advocate I might add by the name of Margaret Sanger). I can’t support Sanger as a human being. Now, Planned Parenthood claimed that 97 percent of its services fund non-abortion operations. The reality is that this 97 percent figure is based on a mathematical formula that equates one abortion with one pap test. An abortion takes human life and a pap test is done to possibly save a life. Planned Parenthood says that it performs 11,383,900 services every year and 332,278 are abortions. Thus, abortions are 2.9 percent of the total services and everything else is 97.1 percent. Of course, Planned Parenthood could have been a bit more accurate and taken the fact that those 11.4 million services were provided to 3 million unique customers. If we take the 332,278 individuals who had abortions, it represents 11 percent of PP’s unique customers—not three percent. Also, the 332,278 abortions bring in $162.8 million, which is about 40 percent of its annual clinic income. Still, PP uses the 3 percent and 97 percent numbers as an excuse to obfuscate their true history. In the same Fact Sheet referenced above, Planned Parenthood claims to have provided the following services to pregnant women: 332,278 abortions; 7,021 prenatal clients; and 977 adoption referrals. That’s a total of 340,276 services. Thus, abortion is 97.6 percent of the services Planned Parenthood provides to pregnant women. Thousands of babies being murdered is more than services or a quaint procedure. It’s a huge murderous activity. So, according to their own fact sheet, 97 percent of the services Planned Parenthood gives to pregnant women are abortions. They aren’t even making abortion rates safe, legal, and rare since abortion rates nationally have been consistently over 1 million per year. Jim Sedlak (or the President of the American Life League) has proven these stats. According to Steven Ertelt, Planned Parenthood doesn’t do mammograms (according to Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure CEO Nancy Brinker and President Elizabeth Thompson). A late March expose’ from Live Action revealed no Planned Parenthood centers nationally provide mammograms. You will notice that mainstream media won’t report on the eugenics links to Planned Parenthood spanning into our time (not just in the 1960’s), the breast cancer/abortion link, the Planned Parenthood lax funding of mammograms, and other real issues. They want to argue about choice, but ending innocent human life ends choice. You don’t have choices to live life when you’re dead. Komen’s donations have radically gone up as a product of this controversy. An investigation into Planned Parenthood is a part of the freedom of speech. The Maafa documentary exposes Planned Parenthood completely. The Negro Project proves that Sanger wasn’t racially progressive. You can’t be racially progressive when your own writings have you calling for the deaths of infants or for the registration of pregnancies (and Sanger wanted forced segregation of those deemed “unfit”). This doesn’t mean I oppose sexual services for women. I do support many services for human beings (like HIV/AIDS prevention, age appropriate sexual education, health care, etc.), but I won’t support abortion on demand period. Now, the Komen Foundation is reversing their decision with an apology. What we need aren't eugenics or abortion on demand. What we need are policies to reduce abortion rates, to promote common sense sexual education, and the respect of the sanctity of human life.



There is recent economic news. In January of 2012, the USA added 243,000 jobs according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This reality describes a pattern of increased GDP grow over the past of many months. This is good news, but we have a long way to go in order to see a long lasting recovery. We should thank anyone getting a job and receiving legitimate employment. Now, we can use means in getting folks who have given up finding work to allow them to get new jobs. The unemployment rate dropped to 8.3 percent from 8.5. This is positive news in the job market. Yet, for many Americans we have a long road ahead in order to see a full fledged recovery. Some economists predict that it may take 7 years and 10 million additional jobs for our economic situation to exist in pre-recession levels of unemployment. 5.5 million Americans are out of work presently. There are also from 3 to 5 million additional people who are no longer counted as unemployed since they gave up looking for jobs. "This report is encouraging, but it still underscores how far a distance we have to go and how many people are still long-term unemployed and disconnected from the workforce," said Harvard economist Lawrence Katz. The house market is sluggish, consumer spending is weak and real household income plus wealth is stagnant. Job growth came about in professional and business services, manufacturing, lower paying sector jobs, and construction (including mining). The gain in jobs is good news and there have been many months of more gains. Our trade policies ought to be changed to inspire benefits for companies that increase jobs in this country of America. Having a job is fine. Also, people have bills to pay and decent wages ought to be promoted too. So, the recession was caused as a result of the policies from the Bush administration not the current administration of President Barack Obama. The American auto industry is back, we don’t have an economic meltdown, the DOW has doubled, and some jobs seen growth. Yet, we have a long way to go in living in that Promised Land that we all seek. There is still record unemployment among minorities in large metropolitan cities inside America. I don’t agree with the President on foreign policy and civil liberty matters (like his drone attacks, the bombings of Libya, his support of the Patriot Act, him signing the NDAA, his agreement with warrantless wiretapping, etc.), which in my opinion are near similar to the Bush administration's policies. The Republican policies of deregulation, privatization, and obstructionism don’t work to improve our economy period. We should continue to give those struggling unemployment benefits and a payroll tax cut. Deficit cuts and budget cuts don't take precdent over human lives (and legitimate benefits during a recession. Massive cuts during a recession can cause an evil, deflationary economic problem). So, the government should do its part and we as individuals ought to do our part too. We can protest, work in our own local communities, and use methods to help our own fellow people. We should hope for more job growth and radical improvement in our economy. I hope for a very prosperous nation.
