There have been threats of a potential Western war against Syria over chemical weapons. Now, there are 10,000 U.S. troops (including French, British, and NATO troops) amassing off the coast of Syria for a potential invasion. The U.S. claims that Syria is mixing chemical weapons, but this view is lacking in much credibility. War against Syria could expand Middle Eastern conflict. Pentagon officials say that there is no evidence that Syria is mixing chemical weapons. It isn't clear that the precursors have been moved from separate storage sites to one location. The Syrian Tribune has released a video allegedly showing Syrian rebels killing rabbits with chemicals and threatening to use them against supporters of the Syrian government. It is not possible at this moment to find this information genuine or propaganda. The U.S. will present one of the leading Syrian rebel groups as a terrorist operation. McClatchy notes that until recently the Syrian opposition blamed this terrorist group's attacks on the government. This means that the terrorist violence carried out by one of the main opposition groups was wrongly blamed on the Syrian government. Even the American government has backed numerous terrorist opposition groups in Syria. Russia has docked 2 warships in Syria, which is a show of support of the government. There is another piece of news about this issue as well. There is the arrival of the USS Eisenhower in the Mediterranean Sea just outside of Syria. NATO forces are in place to prepare possibly to attack Syria and attempt to topple President Bashar Al-Assad. “Sources close to the French Defense Ministry reported Friday, Dec. 7, that a Western-Arab military intervention against the Assad regime is due to begin shortly with the participation of the US, France, Britain, Turkey, Jordan and other anti-Assad Arab nations,” reports Israeli news outlet DebkaFile, adding that Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar’s special forces will also be involved. There is the USS Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group now stationed in waters outside of Syria. There is the French aircraft carrier Charles De Gaulle in the fray as well. For recent weeks, there has been training exercises between Britain and France. They work on preparing to attack fortifications in the Alawite Mountains, because Assad is predicted to escape if he wants to flee Damascus. The report adds that the assault, “Would be modeled on the Western intervention in Libya in 2011. It would combine an aerial blitz with ground action by special forces for destroying Assad’s chemical weapons stocks, his air force and his air defense systems.” The White House threatened to attack Syria (as beyond a red line) if Syria uses chemical weapons on rebels or anyone else. The talking points of the White House are very similar to the 2002 talking points of the Bush administration, which led into the invasion of Iraq. It turned out that Saddam Hussein didn't have massive amounts of weapons of mass destruction (since the information used to justify the Iraqi invasion was based on fabricated evidence). The rebels in Syria, Libya, etc. are linked to al-Qaeda terrorists (which killed U.S. troops and some of them want draconian Sharia law to spread across the region). NATO approved of stationing U.S. made Patriot missiles along Turkey's border. They claim to want to use these items for "defense." Now, Turkey is harboring and providing logistics for foreign fighters across the border into Syria. Turkey has already invaded Iraq to try to get Kurdish rebels who killed more than 25 Turkish soldiers in multiple attacks in the southern Turkish province of Hakkari (reported in October 2011 by McClatchy Newspapers). Conversely, this same silent and complicit “international community” has warned that any mirroring strategy by Syria to likewise follow militants, harbored by Turkey, over its borders in “hot pursuit” will result in military intervention. John McCain admitted that the Turkish government doesn't have the support of most of its people by supporting NATO's attempt to institute regime change in the nation of Syria. We don't need a NATO intervention based on dubious evidence. The Syrian civil war is tragic and hopefully a peaceful solution can come about. Diplomacy, humanitarian aid, and other peaceful actions should be taken to end the Syrian civil war in a reasonable, just fashion. Our country has a lot of challenges indeed. We need massive investment to help America, we need decent housing, and we need better education for all people in America too. NAFTA, the Free Trade Area of the Americas and the Trans-Pacific Partnership promotes globalization.

 

 

Dubai has the Wafi Center. It looks like a huge pyramid or ziggurat. It's a complex that has many buildings. It has a mall, hotel, restaurants, residences, and a nightclub. A lot of celebrities, the super-rich, and other prominent people throughout the world come into Dubai now. The complex tries to base itself in the realm of Ancient Egypt. That is why there are columns in the place that look similar to the Egyptian city of Karnack, it has small pyramids, and the Wafi Center shows images of pharaohs. The main feature of the place is the Wafi Mall. It was opened in 2001. The mall has over 200 stores and a small 80,000 square meter (or 861,113 square foot) theme park called the Encounter Zone. The owners are famous in the area. There are Pyramids throughout the area that has restaurants, cafes, and spas (like Cleopatra's Spa and Pharaoh’s Club). Wafi Residence is a residential complex that was opened in July 1995. Residents have full membership to the spas in the Pyramids. The pyramid has many meanings to occultists, Freemasons, and to ancient man spanning the eons of time. The Pyramid to the Mystery Schools outlines a symbol of the Mysteries. According to Albert Pike (from his Morals and Dogma book), the pyramid relates to the knowledge of Nature: "...“The more the great Hierophants were at pains to conceal their absolute Science, the more they sought to add grandeur to and multiply its symbols. The huge pyramids, with their triangular sides of elevation and square bases, represented their Metaphysics, founded upon the knowledge of Nature." One major pyramidal structure is called Raffles Dubai. It was opened by November 2007. It is a 5 star hotel in a pyramidal shape that has 248 rooms on 18 floors. The standard room size is made up of 753.5 square feet, which is the largest in Dubai. Some people point to Masonic significance of these structures since Freemasonry took the traditions from the ancients in order to modernize them for their own interests. Even the Raffles Dubai hotel has a botanical sky garden dedicated to the elements of life (or the concept of Earth, wind, fire, and water). The whole hotel complex is controlled by Fairmont Raffles Hotels International or FRHI (being based in Toronto, Canada It's owned by Voyager Partners, Kingdom Hotels, and the Los Angeles based Colony Capital, LLC). Fairmont Raffles is named after Sir Stamford Raffles. He went from a trading clerk for the infamous British East India opium company to a peerage, was the founder of the colony and now nation of Singapore. He was an imperialist, so that entity is named after of a supporter of the imperialist British Empire. Yes, Sir Stamford Raffles was a Freemason indeed. Singapore has the Pyramid Club, which is a secretive elite club.

 

 

With the problems in the world, there is some good news as well. Far too often, we get caught up in the negative news. We shouldn't be naive about life, but we should have time to witness some positive events going on in the globe as well. Realizing this can motivate us even further to promote solutions to the serious complications that go on for real. The events in my life will never make blue since I will focus on doing the right thing to do. We ought to continue to understand about fascism. Decades ago, the protofascist FBI harmed the civil liberties of Americans by using COINTELPRO policies including warrantless wiretapping against people who desire to live in a society where human rights are respected. We realize that unemployment is a function of the income inequality in the world and other economic issues. It has nothing to do with the function of individual character of human beings. Unemployment deals with the structural imperfections of the current economy or the current market system. Unfettered capitalism has been documented to be instrumental in causing unemployment, economic exploitation, and other negative problems in America. After the decades of the reactionaries vilifying the Civil Rights Movement, and other heroes, they couldn't crush the spirit of truth. There was the counterrevolution of Reaganism and reaction, but we stood tall to harbor even recent victories from the defeat of some anti-voting policies to the granting of compensation to African American plus Native American farmers who were oppressed by discrimination. There was the victory of many Latin American peasants fighting fascistic juntas and even the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa that ended the tyranny of colonial factions. Even some moderate and progressive Islamic leaders have translated the works of Dr. King into Arabic and Persians as a means to disseminate them in the Middle East. After neoconservative extremism, the spirit of truth and the inspiration of human liberty live on in us. The reason is that despite pain, hope is a reality. When you see evil, there is always a chance where we can use light to shine forth that can assist the human family (as a means for all people to develop into greater depths of moral understanding plus tolerance). Tolerance is a key factor that we must live by in order to enrich our thinking and further grow our fundamental understanding of the Universe. We still have a fight for justice still. We still have groups like the CFR, the Bilderbergers, the Pilgrim Society, etc. promoting globalization and international imperialism via slick fashion. We still have some Wall Street billionaires, Pentagon warmongerings, and other elitists that are threats to world society. We are dealing with fiscal issues and foreign policy matters. Funding war is the main expenditure now, but we see those who want to massively cut from domestic programs helping folks. We know that the reactionary Tea Party crowd is wrong since you need true respect for human development via progressive means. Yet, the centrism of Geithner, Emanuel, and others represent a policy of compromise not liberation. Today, the Empire is in decline, the political system is very much controlled by the plutocrats, and the culture has been dominated by evil, corporate interests. Even the stimulus was made up of 40 percent tax cuts, which deal with savings not stimulus. The stimulus didn't go far enough to help society. The good news is that some job growth is better than no job growth, but we have a long way to go in making a higher level of economic development. Without the centrist stimulus, our economy would be a lot worse than today. The extremists hate the stimulus since they believe that spending money is silly. The reason is that the correct spending of money to build up our infrastructure can reap great benefits. You need investments in the poor and the middle class in order to see a much better nation of America. Even extending unemployment benefits in 2013 can help to grow millions of jobs. Younger workers are hurting, because a lot of new jobs are gotten by middle age and older Americans. The government can create jobs all of the time from teachers to those in the health field. More jobs were created under Clinton than during the days of Reagan and Bush Jr. Freedom is a concept and a way of life that ought to be given to people all over the world in the Americas, Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania, Australia, etc.

 

There is the right to work law controversy in Michigan. There has been a police attack on union members and other protesters opposing the right to work legislation in Michigan. 8 protesters were pepper sprayed and arrested inside of the state's capitol building in Lansing, Michigan. They wanted to move past the state troopers guarding the Senate floor. The demonstrators opposed the Workplace Fairness and Equity Act. It banned collective bargaining agreements that require workers to pay dues or fees to unions. The problem is that this bill can cause total wages to go down since corporate elites want to pay workers as little money as possible. Unions and likeminded organizations contributed to the growth of the middle class and workers' rights. These rights are threatened all of the time not only in America, but throughout the world. The Republican controlled House of Representatives (in the state of Michigan) and the Senate passed parts of the legislation in both chambers. This bill will deal with private and public sector workers. Republican Governor Rick Snyder said that he will sign the bill into law. The right to work bill tries to intimidate workers and it's a threat against the collective resistance by the working class. Many people want to roll back the gains won by workers over decades of bitter struggle. There are about 200 protesters that were inside of the capitol building when the state police put it in lockdown mode. “We will not have another Wisconsin in Michigan,” state police Inspector Gene Adamczyk said, referring to the mass protests that erupted in February and March 2011 against anti-worker legislation introduced by Governor Scott Walker. The capitol was later reopened under a judge’s ruling, and hundreds of workers and other protesters rushed in. The current legislation is considered to be immune from being overturned by popular referendum, because it contains an appropriation of state funds. Appropriation bills can't be repealed via the referendum process. Michigan can be the 24th state in the Union and the 2nd Midwestern industrial state to adopt such a law. Indiana has the right to work legislation. Michigan is one of the most heavily unionized states in America, which is why the reactionaries want to support the right to work legislation. Many corporations want production costs low and profits high by slashing jobs, wages, and benefits. There are still economic issues in Michigan and throughout America. No matter how sincere some libertarian people may be, libertarian free market fundamentalism is not going to protect us from corporate pollution. We don't need unrestrained corporate gluttony determining the anti-pollution policy. We ought to have legitimate public policy to take care of our ecology and environmental system in the world. Pollution prevention is better than a laissez faire approach to our ecology indeed. You can't oppose equal pay for equal work, a minimum wage, and, naturally, trade unions to be a true liberty lover. We should continue to advocate the democratic and social rights of working people. Wall Street has made many people debt dependent. Historically, the bankers try to put everyone in debt and some of them refuse to make investments or build investments for the people. An offshoot of the OWS called Strike debt revealed a report on how the Sandy disaster caused people to be individually response for the disaster economically. That is why it's wrong to have war mongering, GMO has dangerous chemicals in them, and we know about the nefarious activates of the FBI and CIA. Our infrastructure should be rebuilt in urban and rural communities and all workers ought to be guaranteed good paying plus secure jobs.

 

One of the old occult images in human history is the magic square. The magic square relates to the worship of the sun or sun worship. The sun of the values of the magic square form 1 to 36 is equal to 6666. Some have the sun or any row, column, or diagonal is equal to the number of 111. In the magical Hebrew Kabbalah, each planet is associated with a number, intelligence, and spirit. The intelligence of the Sun is Nakiel, which equals 111, while the spirit of the Sun is Sorath and equals 666. The occultists in our time include people as diverse as Freemasonry to the Golden Dawn. People like Freemasons were involved in constructing building to represent the Mysteries like the Washington Monument and the famous U.S. Capitol Building. The 36 paneled magical skylight is found above the altar in the House of the Temple (that heads all Southern Jurisdiction of Scottish Rite of Freemason Temples in North America). Occultist and unorthodox Freemason Aleister Crowley practiced the Kabbalah. He connected the number 111 with the number 4, which he described as the greatest number of the sun or the sun god. Me, personally, I don't worship the sun since the sun is part of Nature. The Sun is a creation of God not the Creator. Crowley wasn't the only Mason involved in such high level occultism. The influential founding father and Freemason, Benjamin Franklin, not only used such magic squares, but according to his own biography and numerous other authoritative sources even created magic squares and circles for use by himself and his brethren. Benjamin Franklin was one of the men who signed the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Paris, and the U.S. Constitution. In England, he was part of the Hellfire Club, which was an English club that was involved in orgies and rituals that condemned traditional religion. He was a master of the Nine Sister Lodge in France. The Hellfire club, which consisted of “The Superior Order” of twelve members, allegedly took part in basic forms of satanic worship. In addition to taking part in the occult, orgies and parties with prostitutes were also said to be the norm. The club was created by Sir Francis Dashwood. We know about the story where bones of holes in skulls and bones appeared to be burned (as reported by the Times) were found beneath the home of Benjamin Franklin. The occult in D.C. continues. The Masons who designed the U.S. Capitol building made the U.S. Capitol dome. One of the paintings in the dome shows the apotheosis of George Washington (or Washington shown as going into Heaven being like a "god" after he passed away in 1799. This is wild and blasphemous to say the least). The U.S. Capitol building was thus designed with three stories—Washington’s Tomb, the Crypt, and the Rotunda—capped by a Dome. Each floor has significant esoteric meaning regarding apotheosis, and the tomb of Washington is empty. The official narrative is that a legal issue kept the government from placing Washington’s body there. The dome represents the feminine archetype or the womb of Isis to the esoteric. Brumdi made many of the paintings one the Capitol Dome. 72 Pentagrams surround the base of the Apotheosis paintings in the Capitol Dome. What is the significance of the number 72? In the Kabbalah, Freemasonry, etc. that is the number equals to the total number of wings Enoch received when transformed into Metratron. In the Kabbalah, it views God as having 72 names. The axis of the earth moves of one degree every 72 years. It's easy to see that many Founding Fathers weren't just Deists, but some of them embraced the concepts of the occult or the Mysteries. Award winning filmmaker Christian J. Pinto made great information public about this apparent, historical reality. The real overarching theme is that there is more than meets the eye. The same people oppressing the world made long term plans centuries ago as a means to dominate humanity (especially people of color). The good news is that we can build up the knowledge of self, have a reformation in our lives, and then fight for real radical reforms in the lives of people. Evil will never prevail over righteousness and goodness, because Good is stronger than evil at every circumstance.
