“First they came for the communists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist. Then they came for the socialists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Catholic. Then they came for me, Pastor Martin Niemöller, victim and there was no one left to speak for me.” of Nazi propaganda

ON THE COVER The American government has steadily been eroding our divine rights, inherent in each human from birth, and in replacement offering deceptive lip service to equality through calculating social awareness programs and subtly divisive smear campaigns. Political correctness is the usurper’s gospel pushed by the establishment to build itself into God. They have delivered unto us their Messiah, and we wait to hear the cracks in the plaster of Babel.

We are in a topsy-tervy, Bizarro-world state of endless government. The insanity of the far-left regime by stealth has surpassed Orwellian proportion. And the American public has become immune, numb, anesthetized to except the madness as the norm. In this constant barrage of propaganda, hypocrisy, and liberal political correctness? We, the unhappy patriots are the ones who are left sticking out, as we are the targets of ridicule and mockery and dismissed as looney zealots for obsolete constitutional principles. I can’t decide weather the McCarthy witch hunts of the 50s was an ominous warning of things to come? Or if his paranoid dictatorial tactics are being used on us by a traitorous regime who long ago infiltrated our republic? I feel the cancer of lawless, oppressive government control and totalitarianism has spread much to far to ever be contained by any traditional electoral process! The only way to stop any further sovietization of this nation? The military and law enforcement will have to honor a NON-DILUTED oath to the constitution, stop taking orders from criminals, and start making arrest of the law-breakers and oath-violators from the highest office in Washington to the (NOT-SO) supreme court on down. Irony from Edward R. Murrow, Good Night and Good Luck. (WHO KNEW) Markie D.

The “New Economy” is the No Jobs Economy
O
ne of my most popular columns was about escaping from the Matrix existence in which Americans live. It is a world of disinformation and misinformation in which facts are fiction, and abstract theories are substituted for empirical reality. Official government statistics are make-believe. The government makes inflation and unemployment disappear by how it defines inflation and unemployment, and it makes the economy grow by how it defines gross domestic product (GDP). The definitional basis determines the statistical result. For example, in his report on the official GDP revisions released July 31, John Williams of shadowstats.com writes that “academic theories, often with strong political biases, have been used to alter the GDP model over the years, resulting in ‘Pollyanna Creep,’ where changes made to the series invariably have had the effect of upping near-term economic growth.” In other words, definitional changes produce economic growth whether or not the economy produces economic growth. Inflation is made to disappear by substituting lower priced items for higher priced items and by defining price rises as quality improvements. Thus, the higher prices don’t count as inflation. Unemployment disappears by defining discouraged workers who cannot find employment as people who are no longer in the work force. They simply are disappeared out of the ranks of the unemployed. It reminds me of Punjab’s magic blanket in the old cartoon strip, “Little Orphan Annie.” Punjab disposed of problem people by covering them with his
10
blanket, or perhaps it was a rug, and they disappeared. Despite the absurdity of the government’s data, Wall Street awaits with baited breath for each new release to decide whether markets should go up or down or stay the same. In other words, the financial markets themselves take guidance from make-believe numbers. In short, capitalism is rudderless. It has no reliable indicators. Everything is rigged to support the Matrix which keeps the population in a stupor. Certainly, the monthly payroll jobs number is misconstrued and has undeserved influence. If the economy is down, a jobs number significantly higher than the approximately 130,000 new jobs required to stay even with population growth is seen as a beacon of recovery, but the number is so distorted, as John Williams explains, by shifting and unstable seasonal adjustments and an average monthly add-on of 52,000 jobs from the “birth-death” model that no one really knows what the number is. Only a statistician like John Williams who is very familiar with the government’s data procedures can make much sense from the official statistics. I take a simpler approach. I look at where the reported jobs are alleged to be. In the 21st century, the jobs created by “the world’s largest economy” have been lowly-paid, non-tradable, domestic-service, third-world jobs. Manufacturing and tradable professional service jobs, such as software engineering, have been moved offshore to low-wage, low-salary locations. The savings in labor costs have enriched corporate executives, Wall Street, and shareholders. I have made this point monthly for many years, and it has had no effect on economists, policymakers, money managers,
or financial markets, all of which continue in their make-believe world of make-believe reality. Here we go, one more time. Of the 161,000 reported private sector jobs gained in July, 157,000 or 97.5 percent, are in non-tradable domestic services. A non-tradable service is a job that produces services that cannot be exported, such as waitresses, bartenders, hospital orderlies, retail clerks, and warehousemen. Thus, no matter how large the number might be, it cannot reduce the huge U.S. trade deficit. Most of these jobs are part-time jobs without health or pension benefits. People in these jobs tend to live hand-to-mouth. These jobs do not produce sufficient income to drive a consumer economy. Of these 157,000 reported jobs, 63,000, or 40 percent, are reported to be in trade, transportation, and utilities. Of these 63,000 jobs, 60,500 of them, or 96 percent, are in wholesale and retail trade. Before we go to the next category, ask yourself if you believe that in an economy that has had no recovery, in which there are no new manufacturing or construction jobs, in which the labor force participation rate is down, in which shopping center parking lots are far from full, stores with such a poor sales outlook would hire so many people in July? Financial activities account for 15,000 of the reported new jobs. The Federal Reserve accounted for 80 percent of these jobs and bill collectors for the rest. Professional and business services accounted for 36,000 of the new reported jobs. About half of these jobs were temporary help services and services to buildings and dwellings. Health care and social assistance accounted for 8,300 jobs of which ambulatory health care services comprised 80 percent. Waitresses
Official government statistics are make-believe. The government makes inflation and unemployment disappear by how it defines inflation and unemployment ‌ The definitional basis determines the statistical result.

and bartenders contributed 38,400 jobs. I have previously noted the anomaly of a population without good employment prospects or rising incomes going out to eat and to drink more and more often, so often that waitresses and bartenders comprise each and every month a significant percentage of the new employees. In her commissioner’s statement accompanying the jobs report, Erica Groshen acknowledges that 8,200,000 or 6 percent of the currently employed are “involuntary part-time workers” who cannot find fulltime employment. The July 2013 payroll employment level of 136,038,000 stands 2,018,000 below the employment level in January 2008, which was over five years ago. If it requires 130,000 new jobs each month to keep employment equal with population growth, the U.S. economy is behind by 10,728,000 jobs. These missing jobs show up in the declining labor force participation rate and the large number of discouraged workers who are no longer counted as unemployed. Obviously, there is no economic recovery, despite the reporting of such by the presstitute financial press. Most likely the U.S. economy is sinking further into a depression. The numerous indicators of economic collapse are ignored by economists and financial media busy at work weaving the Matrix to support the lie. As former executives of the “banks too big to fail” and their protégés run the U.S. Treasury, the financial regulatory agencies, and the Federal Reserve, U.S. economic policy has been focused on bailing out the excessively large banks created by mindless deregulation. The purpose of U.S. economic policy is to save the large banks from their bad bets on poorly understood new financial
12
instruments in the gambling casino created by deregulation. The architects of financial deregulation, such as former Senator Phil Graham and President Bill Clinton, were rewarded for their service with fortunes of their own. The free market dupes, who aided and abetted Bill and Phil and misrepresented the repeal of financial stability as a new beginning for laissez-faire capitalism, still pretend that the crisis resulted from Congress requiring banks to make mortgage loans to poor black people who could not pay. The lack of reality in America is extreme. I do not believe anything like it has ever existed in the modern world. Essentially, no one in government or out understands anything. The combination of the power of vested interests with ideological thinking remote from empirical reality is destroying the U.S. economy and the economic prospects of the American people. The employment profile of the U.S. economy is increasingly that of a third world country. Economic security, except for the rich, has disappeared. A large and growing percentage of the population experiences the insecurity of poverty or near-poverty, while the waiting lists for $50 million yachts expands. The distribution of income is so skewed upward that people of enormous wealth bid up the prices of used Ferraris from the 1950s and 1960s to $12,000,000 and $35,000,000. I can remember when a used Ferrari was something that a person with a moderate income could afford to purchase. I have a friend who bought and sold for $9,000 in the 1960s the Ferrari that last sold for $35 million. Detroit, once the fourth largest American city and the manufacturing powerhouse of
the world, is bankrupt. The populations of the cities that once were America’s thriving manufacturing base are declining. Cleveland has boarded up homes. St. Louis has 20 percent of its homes vacant. Welfare is under attack by the Republicans and even some Democrats as the plight of the population worsens and despair rises. Washington only responds to the half dozen powerful, rich private interest groups that fund election campaigns. The American people have no one to represent them. The American people have been placed outside the system of “democratic capitalism” which is only for the one percent. As Jeffrey St. Clair has made clear, America no longer has a left-wing. America is a right-wing world in which people, including “progressives” have been brainwashed into perceiving reality in racial contrast: the whites are well off, and the blacks are poor and destitute. This is the false reality of the Matrix. As whites are a larger percentage of the population than blacks, there are more poor whites than poor blacks. Moreover, the percentage of poor whites is growing. The way the job-offshoring, bail-out-therich, U.S. economy operates today makes everyone poor, including the remnants of America’s once flourishing middle class. It is not a racial issue. It is a class issue. A few people have the power, and they are driving everyone else into the ground. The U.S. government is their agent. So go wave the flag, support the troops, believe the government and media lies, but unless you are the well-connected one percent, don’t expect any future for your children. You have been sold out by “your” government. Obama is making pretty speeches, but only the stupid will be fooled.

The rodeo clown incident has already showcased the insanity of media control and state worship. Mainstream media pundits pushed this story into national news to not only divide us, but to also distract us from the constant erosion of our rights. All it took to make that obvious was for one rodeo clown to wear a Halloween Obama mask.
The Mask of Obama How a State Fair Rodeo Became the Center of Mass Media Control
T
he mainstream media’s latest attempt to control the minds of millions has been exposed through a rodeo stunt. At the 2013 Missouri State Fair, a rodeo clown, responsible for the safety of participants, entered the dusty arena wearing an Obama mask. After a bull threw off its rider, the Obama-masked clown kept the rider from being killed by distracting the bull long enough for the rider to escape unharmed from the arena, but that’s not quite how several media outlets reported the
story. They preyed on people unfamiliar with rodeos by making it sound like the state fair purposely let loose a stampede of bulls upon a man wearing an Obama mask. When you compare their masterful spin of the story to the responsibilities of a rodeo clown, it becomes clear — and ironic — that these mainstream media outlets really do serve as rodeo clowns for the Obama Administration. They allow Obama to escape from accountability in the political arena by distracting us with small-scale news stories which do not really affect our daily lives. Missouri’s Lt. Governor, Peter Kinder, sure seemed distracted at the very least. He said that the clown’s mask was “disrespectful” to Obama and that “we are better than this.” Ever since the start of his presidency, however, Obama has been, at the bare minimum, disrespectful to our Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Obama Administration spies on us illegally, gives SWAT team gear to small town cops, harasses journalists consistently, and allows the Department of Homeland Security to build its own domestic army against the “emerging threat” of non-violent libertarians and conservatives. We should expect the president to be better than this, especially a president who taught courses in constitutional law at the University of Chicago. Mainstream pundits won’t focus on any of this, however. Instead, they distract us with a “major news story” about a Missouri rodeo clown who — gasp — wore an Obama mask while keeping people safe from charging bulls. The incident has now led to the state fair requiring rodeo clowns to undergo “sensitivity training.” The Obama-masked clown, now possibly under Secret Service investigation, has been labeled “racist” for his rodeo performance. That is how mass media now reflects criticism aimed at Obama, by declaring anyone who questions or pokes fun at him must be doing so out of racial bigotry, even if there is no proof. Sure, there have been real racists who have attacked Obama in racial tirades, but that’s fortunately only a small percentage. The majority of criticism against Obama has
14
been from non-racist Americans who have a problem with his unconstitutional policies. Obama should never be judged by his race, but only by his actions as President of the United States. We, as Americans, should close the racial divide and unite as human beings who cherish our liberties as recognized by the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately, talking heads on cable news are rather telling us that if we even dare to second-guess the administration, we must be “racist” even though our criticism has absolutely nothing to do with race at all. It’s just another form of media control forced upon us. Are Congressman Justin Amash and journalist Glenn Greenwald racists for opposing the NSA’s bulk collection of Americans’ private data? Obama has defended this domestic spying and abuse of the Fourth Amendment as “necessary” for “national security.” Is being a Constitutionalist now another term for “racist,” considering that Obama ignores the Constitution and the Bill of Rights with impunity? As you can see, declaring any and all criticism against Obama as “racist” could not be more absurd. Since when has freedom been equated to not being able to criticize the president? “Satirizing presidents has a long tradition in America,” Kurt Nimmo wrote in an Infowars.com article on August 14, 2013. “From cartoons and caricatures early on to Chevy Chase and Dana Carvey more recently poking fun at Gerald Ford and George W.
Bush, presidents, presidential candidates, and the establishment political class at large has constituted fair game for newspaper editorialists, commentators, and comedians — until now.” This chilling political oppression is straight out of Soviet Russia. Media pundits are simply trying to intimidate us into believing what they want us to believe. Otherwise, if we think outside the box, outside the “official narrative,” we risk being called “racists” or any other terms meant to exclude us from the population like medieval lepers. As the state grows larger, we find ourselves in an era much like the later Roman Empire with an excessive aristocracy who profit from government privilege granted by a “semidivine” ruler. In turn, the aristocracy — the mainstream media in our case — protect Caesar Obama, who cannot be held to blame for anything. To do otherwise is now considered “racist” or “offensive.” This purely authoritarian move promotes the worship of the state, regardless of the vast expansion of government powers at the expense of our rights. Instead of considering the possibilities of a constitutionally-limited government, mass media would rather assault our subconscious with the ideas that the state is God: it must be worshipped, and it must grow larger. Our minds are programmed into believing that we are servants to the state which provides for us all.
By not being able to consider alternative ideas, we are kept enslaved by those who dictate the narrative. It’s exactly how the elite consolidate their power, because ideas are stronger than any standing army. That, in essence, is why mass media wants control over the minds of millions, but it won’t work. The rodeo clown incident has already showcased the insanity of media control and state worship. Mainstream media pundits pushed this story into national news to not only divide us, but to also distract us from the constant erosion of our rights. All it took to make that obvious was for one rodeo clown to wear a Halloween Obama mask.

19 Shocking Examples of How Political Correctness Is Destroying America
I
f you say the “wrong thing” in America today, you could be penalized, fired, or even taken to court. Political correctness is running rampant, and it is absolutely destroying this nation. In his novel 1984, George Orwell imagined a future world where speech was greatly restricted. He called the language that the totalitarian state in his novel created “Newspeak,” and it bears a striking resemblance to the political correctness that we see in America right now. According to Wikipedia, Newspeak is “a reduced language created by the totalitarian state as a tool to limit free thought and concepts that pose a threat to the regime such as freedom, self-expression, individuality, peace, etc. Any form of thought alternative to the party’s construct is classified as ‘thoughtcrime.’” Yes, people are not usually being hauled off to prison for what they are saying just yet, but we are heading down that path. Every single day, the mainstream media in the United States bombards us with subtle messages about what we should believe and what “appropriate speech” consists of. Most of the time, most Americans quietly fall in line with this unwritten speech code. In fact, most
of the time we enforce this unwritten speech code among each other. Those that would dare to buck the system are finding out that the consequences can be rather severe. 1) The Missouri State Fair has permanently banned a rodeo clown from performing just because he wore an Obama mask, and now all of the other rodeo clowns are being required to take “sensitivity training.” The state commission went further, saying it will require that before the Missouri Rodeo Cowboy Association can take part in any future state fair, “they must provide evidence to the director of the Missouri State Fair that they have proof that all officials and subcontractors of the MRCA have successfully participated in sensitivity training.” 2) Government workers in Seattle have been told that they should no longer use the words “citizen” and “brown bag” because they are potentially offensive. 3) Florida police officer recently lost his job for calling Trayvon Martin a “thug” on Facebook. 4) “Climate change deniers” are definitely not wanted at the U.S. Department of the Interior. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell was recently quoted as making the following statement: “I hope there are no climate-change deniers in the Department of Interior.”
5) A professor at Ball State University was recently banned from even mentioning the concept of intelligent design because it would supposedly “violate the academic integrity” of the course that he was teaching. 6) The mayor of Washington D.C. recently asked gospel singer Donnie McClurkin not to attend his own concert because of his views on homosexuality. 7) U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer is calling on athletes marching in the opening ceremonies at the Winter Olympics in Sochi next year to “embarrass” Russian President Vladimir Putin by protesting for gay rights. 8) Chaplains in the U.S. Military are being forced to perform gay marriages, even if it goes against their personal religious beliefs. The few chaplains that have refused to follow orders know that it means the end of their careers. 9) The governor of California has signed a bill into law which will allow transgendered students to use whatever bathrooms and gym facilities they would like. Transgendered students in California will now have the right to use whichever bathrooms they prefer and join either the boys’ or girls’ sports teams, thanks to landmark legislation signed by Demo-

18
cratic Gov. Jerry Brown on August 12. The law amends the state’s education code and stipulates that each student will have access to facilities, sports teams, and programs that are “consistent with his or her gender identity,” rather than the student’s actual biological composition. A male student who self-identifies as female could therefore use the girls’ bathroom, even if he is anatomically male. 10) In San Francisco, authorities have installed small plastic “privacy screens” on library computers so that perverts can continue to exercise their “right” to watch pornography at the library without children being directly exposed to it. 11) In America today, there are many groups that are absolutely obsessed with eradicating every mention of God out of the public sphere. For example, an elementary school in North Carolina ordered a little six-year-old girl to remove the word “God” from a poem that she wrote to honor her two grandfathers that had served in the Vietnam War. 12) A high school track team was disqualified earlier this year because one of the runners “made a gesture thanking God” once he had crossed the finish line. 13) Earlier this year, a Florida Atlantic University student that refused to stomp on the name of Jesus was banned from class. 14) A student at Sonoma State University was ordered to take off a cross that she was wearing because someone “could be offended.” 15) A teacher in New Jersey was fired for giving his own Bible to a student that did not own one. 16) Volunteer chaplains for the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department have been banned from using the name of Jesus on government property. 17) According to a new Army manual, U.S.
soldiers will now be instructed to avoid “any criticism of pedophilia” and to avoid criticizing “anything related to Islam.” The following is from a Judicial Watch article. “The draft leaked to the newspaper offers a list of ‘taboo conversation topics’ that soldiers should avoid, including ‘making derogatory comments about the Taliban,’ ‘advocating women’s rights,’ ‘any criticism of pedophilia,’ ‘directing any criticism towards Afghans,’ ‘mentioning homosexuality and homosexual conduct’ or ‘anything related to Islam.’” The Obama administration has banned all U.S. government agencies from producing any training materials that link Islam with terrorism. In fact, the FBI has gone back and purged references to Islam and terrorism from hundreds of old documents. 18) According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, it is illegal for employers to discriminate against criminals because it has a “disproportionate” impact on minorities. 19) It would be hard to overstate the power that all of this relentless “thought training” has on all of us, and young people are particularly susceptible to the power of suggestion. If you doubt this, just check out the viral video of a little boy praying to Barack Obama as if he was a deity. It would be a huge mistake to underestimate the power of the mainstream media in America today. Americans watch an average of about 153 hours of television a month. When Americans go to work or go to school, the conversations that they have with others are mostly based on content that the media feeds them, and about 90 percent of what we watch on television is controlled by just six gigantic corporations. But the media is not the only source that is telling us what to think. The truth is that the
messaging that comes from all of our major institutions (the government, the media, the education system, etc.) is remarkably consistent. The establishment wants to control what we say and how we think, and they have a relentless propaganda machine that never stops working. The way that we all see the world has been greatly shaped by the thousands of hours of “thought training� that we have all received over the years. Understanding what is being done to us is the first step toward
breaking free. This story first appeared on EndOfTheAmericanDream.com.

Young Woman’s Ovaries Destroyed by Gardasil Merck “Forgot to Research” Effects of Vaccine on Female Reproduction written by:
Jonathan Benson
A
newly-published study has revealed that Merck & Co., the corporate mastermind behind the infamous Gardasil vaccine for human papillomavirus (HPV), conveniently forgot to research the effects of this deadly vaccine on women’s reproductive systems. At least one young woman, in this case from Australia, bore the brunt of this inexcusable failure after discovering that her own ovaries had been completely destroyed as a result of getting the vaccine. Published in the peer-reviewed British Medical Journal (BMJ), the harrowing recount of this young 16-year-old girl’s experience should give pause to all parents currently being pressured by their doctors into having their young daughters jabbed with Gardasil. Robbed of her natural ability to experience full womanhood, this young woman experienced early menopause, in which her ovaries completely shut down before they were even able to fully develop. Entitled “Premature ovarian failure 3 years after menarche in a 16-year-old girl following human papillomavirus vaccination,” this latest case study provides solid evidence that Gardasil is, at the very least, a serious threat to normal ovarian function. The damaged girl was examined and verified to have had healthy ovaries prior to the shots, and there were no other identified factors besides Gardasil that could have possibly been involved in her sudden ill-fate. Worse is the fact that information later obtained for the case from the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA),
20
Merck intentionally or accidentally — either option is completely unacceptable — failed to check whether or not Gardasil has the potential to damage young women’s reproductive systems, even though young women have always been the primary target market for the vaccine. Australia’s equivalent of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the U.S., revealed that Merck had never even conducted safety testing on Gardasil in relation to its effects on women’s ovaries. According to the report, Merck had only tested Gardasil’s effects on male testes. “Although the TGA’s Australian Public Assessment Report for Human Papillomavirus Quadrivalent Vaccine, February 2011, does report on the histology of vaccinated rat testes and epididymides, no histological report has been available for vaccinated rat ovaries,” explains the report. “[An] histological report of the ovaries of vaccinated rats remained unavailable beyond a numbering of the corpora lutea present at postweaning euthanasia following the first litter.” In other words, Merck intentionally or accidentally — either option is completely unacceptable — failed to check whether or not Gardasil has the potential to damage young women’s reproductive systems, even though young women have always been the primary target market for the vaccine. Only recently have young boys been pulled into the Gardasil fray, despite the fact that the long-term side effects of the vaccine in males is still largely unknown. As reported by investigative journalist Heidi Stevenson, there are at least two additive ingredients in Gardasil that may be responsible for damaging women’s ovaries. These ingredients are polysorbate 80, an emulsifying preservative, and L-histidine, a natural amino acid. Both of these ingredients are used in processed foods, which millions of people consume every day, but injecting them into the body has a much different biological effect
than simply consuming them. As it turns out, polysorbate 80, which also goes by the names Tween 80, Alkest, and Canarcel, has been shown in studies to damage female reproduction. Not only does this chemical additive greatly accelerate sexual maturation in women, but it also tends to reduce the weight and function of both the ovaries and the uterus. Similarly, L-histidine, when injected into muscle tissue, can cause the body to develop an autoimmune response to the natural substance, which can lead to many of the serious side effects being observed in many young girls who have been jabbed with Gardasil.

n George Orwell’s seminal novel, 1984, an all-powerful totalitarian state has taken over the language. “The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world-view” forced on humanity by the authoritarian state, its media, and educational system. It was intended, Orwell later wrote, “to make all other modes of thought impossible.” Political correctness under the regime of Obama, while not as overtly imperious and ultimately violent as the political dictates experienced under Orwell’s fictional socialist dictatorship, Ingsoc, is reaching for a similar denouement. Cultural Marxism, imported by the Frankfurt School in Switzerland after it fled the onset of Nazism in Germany, settled in academia, primarily at Columbia, Princeton, Brandeis, and U.C. Berkeley, where many proponents took up positions principally in the humanities. Cultural Marxism and Critical Theory Mindful of the contradictions and economic failures of Marx’s philosophy, a new breed of Marxist intellectual, inspired by the writings of Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci and Hungarian Marxist Georg Lukacs, formulated a new revolutionary theory: cultural Marxism. In order to realize a “Communist Man” and the communist utopia they desired, this new genus of Marxist intellectual, largely ensconced in American universities, decided Western culture and civilization would have to be destroyed in much the same way Orwell’s Big Brother and the Inner Party decided humanity would be reformulated by destroying any historical or cultural link to the past, including a wholesale reformulation of the language. “I saw the revolutionary destruction of society as the one and only solution to the cultural contradictions of the epoch,” Lukacs wrote in 1923. “Such a worldwide overturning of values cannot take place without the annihilation of the old values and the creation of new ones by the revolutionaries.” Merging the tenets of Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud, leading figures such as Herbert Marcuse, Erich Fromm, and other neo-Marxists established the Critical Theory, a school of thought that rejected Western Civilization and Christianity. The transplanted Frankfurt School brought the theory to America. At the very core of Critical Theory is the idea that the family is patriarchal and represents a retrogressive social force. If social change
22
and a communist revolution are to be successful, the neo-Marxists in American universities argued, parental authority must be destroyed and the family undermined. Subsequently, the “generation gap” was fostered in the 1960s and later, in the 1990s, the “gender gap” was pushed. In the 1930s, psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich formulated his matriarchal theory. At the time, Reich wrote The Mass Psychology of Fascism, a book arguing that matriarchy is the only legitimate family type present in natural society. Reich’s book was popular in the 1970s as the Sexual Revolution took its toll on sexual identity and the family. Since the 1960s, cultural Marxism has morphed into political correctness, essentially a diverse array of engineered social taboos directed against language and attitudes the so-called progressive ideology labels offensive and, increasingly, punishable as criminal behavior. Rarely mentioned is the fact that the term was coined by Mao Zedong, the communist leader who oversaw the murder of between 60 and 80 million Chinese, most during Chairman Mao’s Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution. Faux Rights: Abortion, LGBT, and Childhood Sexuality Political correctness has resulted in a number of faux “rights,” for instance a woman’s “right” to murder a fetus. It is now widely held by the progressive establishment that homosexual people possess special, government mandated “LBGT rights” in issues related to family, marriage, and anti-discrimination. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it is illegal for private sector employers to discriminate against lesbian, gays, bisexuals, and transgenders. Increasingly, state governments permit so-called LGBT people to adopt children. Recent studies produced by the Spanish Forum for the Family and the Institute for Family Policy conclusively demonstrate that adoption by homosexual parents often leads to low self-esteem, stress, confusion regarding sexual identity, an increase in mental illness, drug use, promiscuity, STDs, and homosexual behavior in children. On the other hand, studies conducted by establishment psychological organizations have reached conclusions in favor of same-sex parenthood. “To prove this, the report analyzes the nature of the individuals who have been responsible for the various studies carried out thus far, demonstrating that the vast majority
Political correctness is now routinely employed as a weapon against the establishment’s enemies and, to a far larger degree, used to expand and maintain the tension required to operate effectively the politically useful false right-left paradigm.
are either homosexuals themselves, or active in the gay-rights movement. Into this category fall all six of the six most prominent psychologists of the American Psychological Association, which, unsurprisingly, is one of the organizations most strongly and vocally in favor of homosexual adoption,” Life Site News reported in 2005. The debate over homosexual “rights” has penetrated the highest levels of government. In March 2013, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia asked during arguments over California’s disputed Proposition 8, a law banning gay marriage, if having parents of the same sex may be “harmful” to children. “If you redefine marriage to include samesex couples,” Scalia said, “you must permit adoption by same-sex couples, and there’s considerable disagreement among sociologists as to the consequences of raising a child in a single-sex family, whether that is harmful to the child or not. Some states do not permit adoption by same-sex couples for that reason.” In addition to homosexual adoption, progressive faux rights activists are actively sexualizing children. Planned Parenthood, the abortion mill operating under the aegis of family planning founded by the eugenicist Margaret Sanger, believes children should
be sexually indoctrinated in early childhood. Beginning in the post-World War II era, a number of sociologists and psychologists advocated childhood sexuality, most notably the pediatrician Benjamin Spock. Margaret Mead’s anthropological observation of the Samoans not only encouraged less “repressed” childhood sexuality, but also heterosexual and homosexual casual nudity, social masturbation, and sex play. Spock wrote that in America “many people consider genital play in childhood wrong, and almost everybody objects to seeing it in public” — a conclusion Spock objected to. A cultural obsession with childhood sexuality has produced the phenomenon of child beauty pageants, sexual toys for children, and widespread sexting on cell phones and smart phones by adolescents. The International Planned Parenthood Foundation advocates “sexual rights” for children and has produced a “young people’s guide” appearing concurrently with its official declaration calling for recognition of the “evolving capacities” for “sexual pleasure” in all children and young people. According to the London-based organization, the “sexual rights” for youth must be guaranteed, so that “all young people around the world [will] be able to explore, experience, and express their
23
sexualities in healthy, positive, pleasurable, and safe ways.” The IPPF has linked sexual rights to human rights. “Barriers must be removed so that everyone, especially marginalized and under-served groups, can enjoy all human rights.” Political Correctness: The Preferred Weapon of the Political Elite Political correctness is now routinely employed as a weapon against the establishment’s enemies and, to a far larger degree, used to expand and maintain the tension required to operate effectively the politically useful false right-left paradigm. By dramatizing and amplifying distractions, the establishment engages in covert warfare and operations against political threats to the status quo. A primary example of this is the current effort by the dominant political class to characterize, demonize, and exclude political opponents as racist. False accusations of racism are often and increasingly used since the election of Barack Obama as ad hominem arguments, primarily directed against serious threats perceived harmful to the elite status quo. The accusation of racism is so divisive and stigmatizing it is often enough to delegitimize and destroy the political arguments of opponents. An attempt at this occurred in August when a number of progressive commentators and journalists mounted the corporate media bully pulpit and accused Alex Jones of not only racism, but also inspiring and encouraging terrorists, namely Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the Boston bombing suspect uniformly declared guilty prior to his trial. The Newspeak of political correctness, predicated on a bedrock of Marxist and quasi-Marxist ideology, although often portrayed as cliché, has demonstrated that it remains an effective political weapon. Moving into the 2016 election, we can expect Democrats to further exploit political correctness and use it against their enemies. If Hillary Clinton becomes the Democrat candidate for the presidency, sexism will be added to racism as a quiver used against the Tea Party and other more or less constitutionalist and libertarian political opponents.

It’s Official: Everyone Is Now a Terrorist According to the U.S. Government
I
t’s official, every single American can now be classified as a terrorist by the U.S. government. The label of “terrorist” no longer applies to members of al-Qaeda or “extremists,” but the average citizen of this nation. I can show you how literally 100% of the population can be classified as a terrorist under the truly outrageous Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FBI characteristics that define a terrorist or terrorist activity. These broad qualifications of “terrorism” have spawned a new wave of absolute paranoia within the population regarding their fellow citizens, whom the nightly news says may be sleeper cell terrorists. Paranoia that has led to one woman facing an armed “terrorism task force” that demanded a home search without a warrant after she ran a Google search for pressure cookers online. A search that, as it turns out, qualifies for terrorist activity within the United States of America. It has now come out that it was her employer that called in the police and subsequent “terrorism task force” after it was discovered that this law-abiding woman and her family had searched for backpacks along with “pressure cookers” on Google. It was this event that inspired me to share with you how, no matter what you do or how good you are, you are a terrorist in the eyes of the United States government. Let’s look at just a few ways in which we can classify 100% of the American public as terrorists when combining these designations together. Here are qualifications of a terrorist in the United States under the Department of Homeland Security and FBI guidelines.
Broad qualifications of “terrorism” have spawned a new wave of absolute paranoia within the population regarding their fellow citizens, whom the nightly news says may be sleeper cell terrorists.
“Terrorists” Care About Privacy If you’re concerned about the NSA spying on all of your private e-mails or listening to your intimate phone calls, you are likely a terrorist under FBI guidelines — and don’t even consider voicing concern for your privacy in a public area, which the FBI says is a definite red flag of a terrorist. According to the FBI and Justice Department’s Communities Against Terrorism initiative, as reported by Slate, being concerned about your privacy might just send you to Guantanamo. “Terrorists” Complain About Tap Water Have you ever complained about your tap water or objected to the literal thousands of contaminants inside the municipal water supply? You’re definitely a terrorist. As I reported back in June, a Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) explained to citizens touring the municipal water plant that complaining about tap water could land you on the terrorist watch-list. He told them, “you need to make sure that when you make water quality complaints, you have a basis,
“Terrorists” Pay With Cash Have you ever payed with cash instead of a credit card? The FBI, operating alongside the DHS in helping to stop terrorism and detain terrorists, says you are likely a terrorist if you do so often. Under the FBI’s Communities Against Terrorism (CAT) program, using cash instead of debt-inducing credit cards means that you are a terrorist suspect. In addition to over 24 other flyers on how to help “identify” terrorists, the tendency to pay with cash is listed as a red flag of terrorism.
25
because federally, if there’s no water quality issues, that can be considered under Homeland Security an act of terrorism.” So next time your water smells like excessive chlorine, make sure you aren’t taking on the role of a terrorist by reporting it to the water department. “Terrorists” Know About GMOs Extremist terrorists most of all are familiar with GMOs and dare to agree that they should be labeled, which 93 to 96 percent of the country actually is in favor of. According to a major report out of Germany, this demographic is even targeted by the U.S. military for desiring GMO labeling and all forms of political activism. Just this category alone covers about 96 percent of the U.S. population, leaving around 4 percent left to be absorbed through other terrorist activities. Now even knowing about something and having an opinion on the matter is an act of terror. In 2013, everything you do and say can be classified as an act of terrorism by the United States government. Sadly, the public was duped into thinking that unconstitutional legislation like the Patriot Act was truly enacted in order to protect Americans from al-Qaeda and similar threats. But today, you are the terrorist, and Obama is now openly funding al-Qaeda groups with caches of weaponry and direct financing. You are now the terrorist, and the Syrian rebels linked to al-Qaeda are now the good guys. This story first appeared on StoryLeak.com.

“We’re very careful in this bill to distinguish journalists from those who shouldn’t be protected … and we’ve ensured that,” Senator Charles Schumer said.
Feinstein: You’re Not a Real Journalist Unless You Draw a Salary
C
alifornia Senator Dianne Feinstein has proposed an amendment to the Media Shield Law — an irrelevant law ignoring protection already afforded by the First Amendment — that would limit the law’s protection only to “real reporters,” not bloggers and other upstart alternative media types. A real reporter, declared Madame Feinstein during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, is “a salaried agent” of a media company like The New York Times or ABC News, not a shoestring operation with volunteers and writers who are not paid. Feinstein voiced her concern “that the current version of the bill would grant a special privilege to people who aren’t really reporters at all, who have no professional qualifications,” like bloggers and citizen journalists. Senator Charles Schumer, a New York Democrat, worried the Shield Law, if passed, would be used to protect whistleblowers and others who ferret out government corruption. “The world has changed. We’re very careful in this bill to distinguish journalists from those who shouldn’t be protected — WikiLeaks and all those — and we’ve ensured that,” Schumer said. “But there are people who write and do real journalism, in different ways than we’re used to. They should not be excluded from this bill.” The bill moving through Congress requires
the Justice Department to notify reporters it decides to monitor. The law would allow Justice Department officials to delay notice for a period of 45 days. In addition, it would permit the DOJ to ask for an extension of an additional 45 days. In May, it was learned that the Justice Department had illegally seized the phone records of Associated Press journalists over a two month period. Obama’s Justice Department did not provide notice or a court-issued warrant prior to violating the confidentiality of the journalists. In response to criticism of the illegal surveillance of journalists, Justice Department boss Eric Holder presented rule changes to the White House in July. The changes require that journalists involved in “ordinary news-gathering activities” cannot be served with a warrant connected to their own investigative work unless the journalist in question is the subject of a criminal investigation.

Political Correctness and the Destruction of Free Speech
O
n August 12, California became the first state to preserve rights for transgender students in Kindergarten through 12th grade. The new state law allows transgender students to use whichever school restroom or locker room they feel most comfortable with in accordance with their gender identity. The bill, titled AB1266, which was passed by Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown, also allows transgender students to choose whether they want to play boys’ or girls’ sports, reported The Washington Post. Under the new law, students can choose “to participate in sex-segregated programs, activities, and facilities based on their selfperception and regardless of their birth gender.” Advocates of the bill say the new law will protect transgender students in that it will shield them from bullying and discrimination by other students. Some Republican lawmakers are heavily against the measure, calling it a blatant attack on the family. A report by The New American describes the assertion of Karen England, a member of the pro-family Capitol Resource Institute, that the bill was never meant to assist children struggling with gender dysphoria. She believes it’s meant to further radicalize the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender agenda by utilizing the public school system as a place to force acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle on children. Critics also worry the bill could compromise the privacy of other students. England argues, “What about the right to privacy of a junior high school girl wanting to go to the bathroom and having some privacy or after PE showering and [not] having to worry
about being in the locker room with a boy?” Granting citizens faux rights, particularly children in this case, such as allowing students to decide which restroom they’d prefer to use, but refusing them fundamental human rights, such as the right to have your food properly labeled or the right to refuse vaccines, illustrates the pure practice of authoritarianism. Over the last few decades, the government has moved towards using the term “politically correct” to undermine Americans’ First Amendment rights. To be politically correct means to refer to “language, ideas, or policies that address perceived or actual discrimination against politically, socially, or economically disadvantaged groups.” The term is often used to describe groups that are defined by gender, race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and disability. The term was originally used by Communists and Socialists, particularly by the Soviet Union, in political debates during the early-to-mid 20th century to provide for “correct positions” on political matters. It was later adopted by the New Left and is used today to call people racist, subsequently dampening the constitutional right to free speech. A report titled “The Origins of Political Correctness” written by Bill Lind, describes political correctness as classic cultural Marxism and calls it a “totalitarian ideology.” The authoritarian New Left has demonically utilized it as a tactic to attack free speech, labeling those who have opposing views as racist, sexist, or homophobic. The California school system enacting transgender rights under the guise of protecting children is the perfect illustration of how the government uses the term to break down the foundation

of families, criticizing anyone who opposes it. The founder and director of the Liberty Counsel, Matt Staver, said, “Girls in elementary and high school will be forced to shower and change in locker rooms with boys masquerading as girls. When an incident happens — and no question, it will — Governor Brown will have the innocence of that abused girl on his hands. This is not about intolerance or hatred or bigotry; it is about biology, which you cannot change, and common sense, which seems rare today.” The New American’s report also revealed that an Arcadia, California, school district was “pressured by the federal Department of Education and the Department of Justice (DOJ) to change its policy so that a female student ‘transitioning’ to the male gender would be able to use the boy’s restrooms and locker rooms at her school. The school district signed on to an ‘agreement’ written up by the DOJ ensuring that the girl who supposedly identifies as a boy ‘will be treated like other male students while attending school in the district,’ according to a DOJ statement.” The same government that is lobbying for transgender rights for students is the same government that forces harmful vaccinations on the public, contaminates the food supply with GMOs, sprays chemicals full of heavy metals into the air, and fluoridates the public’s water supply. All methods of eugenics used to deliberately harm Americans, leaving children as no exception. The implementation of faux rights is an authoritarian agenda operating under the guise of protecting children as another way to divide and conquer the nation, distracting Americans from the ongoing political corruption inside the U.S. government.

“The nonmention of illegal alien status is one of the mainstream media’s many subtle techniques used, all in the name of political correctness, to blur the news of the impact of illegal immigration on the United States,” writes David North.
Front Page Washington Post Story Hides Fact That Alleged Murderer Was Illegal Alien Amidst National Debate About Amnesty For Undocumented Immigrants
A
midst a national debate about a potential amnesty for millions of undocumented immigrants, the Washington Post featured a front page story about the prime suspect accused of carrying out a sickening murder, but refused to mention the fact that he was an illegal alien. The article concerned pre-trial filings in the 2010 killing of Falls Church teen Vanessa Pham. 27-year-old Julio Miguel Blanco Garcia is accused of murdering Pham after first approaching her with his one-year-old daughter in a shopping mall and asking to be taken to the hospital. Pham agreed, but when she took a wrong turn, Garcia became agitated and, fearing she was about to report him to the police, grabbed a butcher knife from his backpack and plunged it into Pham no less than thirteen times. The car crashed into a ditch, and Garcia grabbed his daughter before clambering out of the sunroof, leaving Pham to die. Garcia then cleaned the blood off his hands using a baby wipe. The fact that Garcia was an illegal alien is central to the story — this was obviously a key factor behind Garcia’s fear that Pham
30
would turn him over to the authorities and therefore a primary motivating cause behind the alleged murder — but the Post makes no mention of it whatsoever, nor does the police report. “The non-mention of illegal alien status is one of the mainstream media’s many subtle techniques used, all in the name of political correctness, to blur the news of the impact of illegal immigration on the United States,” writes David North of the Center for Immigration Studies. “Garcia, according to the Post, had been arrested several times prior to the murder; had he simply been deported after any one of these arrests, Ms. Pham would be alive today.” Whether the Washington Post deliberately obfuscated Garcia’s illegal status in order not to taint the current push for mass amnesty cannot be ascertained. An equally disturbing premise is that this is just standard operating procedure for Post journalists. What’s almost inevitable is that brutal crimes carried out by illegal aliens will almost certainly be downplayed or ignored by the establishment media in order to ensure the safe passage of the Senate’s “Gang of Eight” “immigration reform” agenda on the House floor, if the Obama administration is ever able to secure a vote.

Why Obama & His Surrogates Want You to Focus on Race So You Won’t Look at His Policies
I
t’s no secret that Obama’s ace in the hole is his race card. Although he is only half black, it’s the half he prefers stays lit in the public spotlight. This is not by accident, but by design. The powers that be knew his skin color, along with his gift as an orator, would produce the perfect public figure needed to stave off big government’s critics as they moved to implement the final phases of their globalist plans. It also gives him a leg up in any argument. He, or rather his media cronies, simply have to accuse their opponents of being “racist,” as we witnessed recently in a segment of MSNBC’s “Now with Alex Wagner” in which she and her guest panel listed Alex Jones alongside hate groups such as the Ku Klux Klan.
34
But in February 2012, perhaps the most opportune moment for Obama’s skin pigment to shine was presented in the form of a 17-year-old’s death. His awkward injection into the Trayvon Martin debate (“If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon”), followed by his more recent injection (“Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago”), were merely his latest disgraceful ploys to promote the notion of conflicting racial tensions. While Americans are distracted by the illusion of racial division and the makings of a manufactured race war, Obama and his warmongering bankster buddies are free to increase taxes across the board through Obamacare, continue their war on whistleblowers, defend the spying of Americans without warrant, and also minimize attention
to the deaths of innocent men, women, and children in foreign lands caused by drone strikes. Obamacare Was Written by the Insurance Companies Obama uses his race to help elicit the support he needs and to distract from real issues like the implementation of socialist healthcare, better known as Obamacare. While the Affordable Care Act on its face seems like a loving governmental measure to protect the health of its citizens, it is actually a well-disguised tax. When it goes into effect, it will force all Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty to the IRS, regardless of the state of their health.
Despite the liberals’ semantic word games, arguing whether it is a “tax,” a “mandate,” or a “penalty,” it is ultimately the federal government imposing itself on the lives of its citizens by pushing a law at gunpoint written by the insurance companies. After Obamacare was rammed through Congress, senior Democrat Senator Max Baucus was one of the biggest recipients of campaign cash from the healthcare industry, wrote Infowars editor Kurt Nimmo last month. The Persecution of Whistleblowers and the Defense of Indiscriminate Spying Other policies Obama uses race-baiting to distract Americans from are his administration’s inordinate persecution of whistleblowers and his reprehensible defense of the NSA’s massive spy grid to indiscriminately siphon call data, emails, and phone conversations from unsuspecting Americans. After NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden revealed that nearly all Americans’ communications were being closely monitored and stored, Obama’s Justice Department moved to charge him with espionage and theft, even though Snowden believes he did a service to the American people. As well, Pfc. Bradley Manning, the soldier that provided confidential cables, war logs, and other material to the website WikiLeaks, was also on the receiving end of the Obama administration’s war on whistleblowers. In addition to being unjustly jailed for longer than two years before a trial even took place, Manning suffered months in solitary confinement, a punishment known to imprint lasting, deteriorating psychological effects. Despite the actions of these whistleblowers helping Obama live up to his promise of the most transparent administration in history, Obama has instead chosen to prosecute these people and go on to blatantly lie to the American public that programs like the NSA’s all-expansive spy grid don’t exist. In an appearance on NBC’s “Tonight Show” last month, Obama audaciously told Jay Leno and his audience “There is no spying on Americans,” instead insisting that it is a critical tool aiding in the search for terrorists, oblivious to the fact that the FBI organizes most of the terror attacks that take place on U.S. soil, according to The New York Times. His defense and continuation of this type of spying on the American people and his
unconstitutional targeting of journalists and whistleblowers are just a few more issues being cast to the wayside by his focus on racial politics. Drone Warfare Justified Undoubtedly, the most despicable policy this racial division distracts from is his favored use of drone strikes to take out suspected al-Qaeda militants worldwide. These “surgical strikes” have killed countless innocent men, women, and children in foreign countries like Somalia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Yemen, but the practice receives little to no attention in the mainstream press. It is difficult to measure the amount of innocent people killed by covert drone strikes because the U.S. government doesn’t make drone strike statistics available to the public. Instead, news organizations like the Bureau of Investigative Journalism must conduct independent research to estimate these numbers. In January, the Bureau estimated that some 891 Pakistani civilians have been killed by U.S. drones since 2004. The fact that these killings are taking place extrajudicially — that is, before a formal trial can take place — should be enough to send people crying foul to their Senators and Congressmen. Instead, the deaths go unreported, as reporting on them would supposedly “aid the enemy.”
While Americans are distracted by the illusion of racial division and the makings of a manufactured race war, Obama and his warmongering bankster buddies are free to increase taxes across the board through Obamacare, continue their war on whistleblowers, defend the spying of Americans without warrant, and also minimize attention to the deaths of innocent men, women, and children in foreign lands caused by drone strikes.
Obama’s Race Makes Him the Perfect Globalist Frontman In putting Barack Obama in power, those that shape society truly stumbled upon a useful agent of distraction, who is able to keep gullible Americans in a trance, while at the same time continuing and strengthening the policies that are strangling freedom and liberty. Combined with carefully-scripted and masterfully delivered speeches, playing the race card enables him to effortlessly garner the street cred needed to facilitate support for the shameful policies currently accelerating America’s unraveling. Like a magician uses an attractive female assistant to distract the audience while he pulls off a magic trick, Obama has successfully used race as a diversion while he carries out the most draconian policies the nation has ever seen.

MSNBC Blames Boston Bombing on “Deeply Racist” Alex Jones Claims Tsarnaev Brothers Inspired by Talk Show Host, Who Is “Getting Paid to Be Racist”
M
SNBC engaged in one of the most egregious and defamatory hit pieces in its entire history early August 14 when host Alex Wagner and guests all but blamed Alex Jones for the Boston Bombing, claiming with no evidence that the Tsarnaev brothers were inspired to carry out the attack by the “deeply racist” Jones and his website, Infowars.com. “Alex Jones may sound crazy, but he has 300 million people that have watched him on YouTube,” said Wagner, characterizing Jones as “deeply racist,” despite the fact that Jones has preached a message of peaceful, non-violent inclusiveness for the best part of two decades. “These folks are getting paid to be racist,” remarked former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, as MSNBC showed a screenshot of Infowars.com. Steele went on to claim that only a “small percentage” of people read Infowars despite the fact that it gets more web traffic than MSNBC.com. Neither Steele nor Wagner presented a single example of Alex Jones being “racist,” a shred of evidence that he was “getting paid to be racist,” nor was any proof offered that the Tsarnaev brothers were fans of Infowars.com. On the contrary, Alex Jones and Infowars are renowned for communicating a message of non-violence and racial harmony, stemming back from the ’90s when Alex Jones protested against and bullhorned the Ku Klux Klan. In comparison, MSNBC is owned in part by General Electric, a titan of the military-industrial complex and one of the biggest arms manufac-
36
turers on the planet — not to mention a key Obama campaign contributor. Who exactly is promoting violence? Wagner also tried to legitimize convoluted logic that terrorist atrocities are caused by distrust in the establishment, and therefore people like Alex Jones who build an audience based off that premise are somehow to blame for terrorist attacks. In reality, distrust in mainstream media and government is shared by a huge majority of patriotic, peaceful Americans. Recent polls show that a whopping 77% of U.S. citizens distrust television news and 73% distrust the federal government. Perhaps MSNBC should take a look at their own biased, defamatory, inaccurate, and offensive content if they are interested in figuring out why the network’s viewing figures recently plunged to a 6 year low. Alex Jones is ordering MSNBC publicly to cease and desist and will also make this clear via registered mail. Jones is also demanding that he be allowed to appear on the show in question and defend himself. Read Jones’ full statement below: “No one should feel safe in this climate. The establishment media can put out whatever lie they want and the Republican Party, represented on Wagner’s show by Michael Steele, will just agree with it because it shows the establishment itself is threatened by the awakening that is happening. They’ve identified Infowars. com and the journalistic system we’re building as a major threat. That’s what the MSNBC segment is, a premeditated attack. So anyone who supports freedom of the press needs to get behind Infowars.com and all the other alternative media that is under attack, like investiga-
tive journalist Glenn Greenwald, whistleblower Edward Snowden, and so many others. This is exactly how countries fall to authoritarianism, because if they can intimidate us, shut us down, and defame us, they can defame anybody. If you care about freedom, remember this quote from German pastor Martin Niemöller, who resisted the Nazis: ‘First they came for the communists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist. Then they came for the socialists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Catholic. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.’ “This meets the precise definition of willful, conscious defamation with malice of forethought with intent to do harm. I have sued people before for defamation successfully. I don’t like to do this, but clearly, if I don’t respond to this they will make up even more outrageous stuff. Will I be a child molester tomorrow? Will they say I’m the bomber? They’re already saying that I made people bomb stuff and that I’m deeply racist without showing a shred of proof. This is outrageous authoritarianism. So, I am putting them on notice. I want massive retractions right now. This is your tort warning. You are now on notice. Do you

guys think you’re invincible because you have the White House behind you? Richard Nixon thought he was invincible, too. The American people are going to stand up against this intimidation against the press.” This is by no means the first time that the establishment media has attempted to use the two accused brothers’ political beliefs as a demonization tool. Back in June, Bloomberg News released a hit piece which insinuated that Alex Jones and his website were responsible for motivating the bombers and had exploited the attacks in order to make money from gold sales. Noting that a friend of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and others “obsessed by the violence,” turned to Jones for answers, the article quotes the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Mark Potok, also a guest on the MSNBC segment, who says Jones, “Does not build bombs, he builds bombers” — a flagrant attempt to smear the radio host as an inspiration for terrorists despite his widely publicized message of peace and non-violence. The article also overlooked the fact that the Southern Poverty Law Center itself has proven to be a wellspring for domestic terrorists, including would-be mass shooter Floyd Corkins, who told the FBI that he targeted the the Family Research Council’s Washington D.C. headquarters in August 2012 after reading that the group had been labeled “anti-gay” on the SPLC website. While MSNBC and Bloomberg have obvious-
ly gone to considerable lengths to demonize perfectly legitimate political beliefs by insinuating they inspired Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s attack, they failed completely to address fundamental questions about the Boston Bombing and its aftermath that remain unanswered, such as why the FBI violently gunned down witness Ibragim Todashev during questioning. Eyewitnesses to the shootout between the alleged Boston bombers and police also asserted that it was the police who ran over Tamerlan Tsarnaev and not his brother, as cops initially claimed. According to Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s aunt, footage of a naked uninjured man being arrested was Tamerlan Tsarnaev, which if true means he was later murdered by authorities. The fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was unarmed before he was caught also debunks initial claims by authorities that he had engaged in a “shootout” with cops while hiding in a boat. According to authorities, Dzhokhar sustained a throat injury during the incident which left him unable to talk. However, photos which later emerged that were taken during Dzhokhar’s capture show no injuries to his throat. In pointing the finger at Alex Jones or distrust in government as being the driving force behind domestic terrorism, both MSNBC and Bloomberg have also conveniently sidestepped the fact that virtually every major domestic terror plot in recent years was “facilitated by the F.B.I.,” according to The New York Times.

Government Promises to Stop Lying Because of Drudge Report Spotlight The Power of Real Media Breaks Through the Electronic Berlin Wall written by:
Adan Salazar and Alex Jones
Because of citizen journalists, social media, and other online platforms reporting news in real time, the public is more quickly becoming aware of the constant patterns of contradictions and habitual lying.
I
n a groveling public display earlier last July, the Department of Defense announced plans to increase its public affairs efforts due to the devastating effect independent media is having on the Pentagon’s ability to control its news, and more specifically, its ability to quash negative news stories before they go viral. On July 25, the DoD bemoaned DrudgeReport.com and the fact that, because of citizen journalists, social media, and other online platforms reporting news in real time, the public is more quickly becoming aware of the constant patterns of contradictions and habitual lying by a government long ago captured by a group of corrupt interests. “We cannot hide our bad news stories. Bad news gets out one way or the other, and we must come to terms with telling bad stories as well as the good,” Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs, George Little, stated at the Defense Media Activity’s headquarters on Fort Meade in Maryland. “When bad things happen, the American people should hear it from us, not as a scoop on the Drudge Report,” he said. When it came time for a brief question and answer segment, Staff Sergeant Hostutler, a junior enlisted member of Air Force production,
39
highlighted that many in her position feel that, as a result of recent spates of negative publicity, the American people are just not buying their stories anymore, making it difficult to execute positive spin effectively. “My question is,” she asked, “you mentioned that we need to start telling the story about the bad news as well as the good, and the issue I see that we’re facing … It seems like we have this culture in our career to kind of glaze over these issues and put out this positive press, … so with the good and the bad, I don’t think the American people actually trust us to deliver accurate information. “What’s the plan to change that in the way ahead, because to continue the way we have, to continue to put that positive spin, it feels like we’re losing a lot of our audience because they’re not listening, because we keep saying the same thing over, ‘everything is okay,’ and it’s not. “… Is there a plan to kind of change the way that we think? Because as it is, a lot of people, from what I can see, are going through, ‘We’re putting out mindless propaganda,’ is what some of us feel that we’re putting out, and what the American people feel that we’re putting out, so how do we change this?” In essence, this is a signal of defeat from the establishment to the power that is independent media, and it shows just how large of an effect it is having. “Just as the term ‘Google’ became synonymous with ‘search
40
engine,’” says Alex Jones, “DrudgeReport.com has become the catchword for all independent forms of journalism alive on the web today.” Jones says Drudge’s reach and influence is only growing exponentially and has checkmated propagandists everywhere. This is the reason why the news aggregator has so frequently been the target of naysayer critics ranging from exiting-DHS secretary Janet Napolitano to White House Press Secretary Jay Carney to White House Senior Advisor Dan Pfeiffer, who said that Drudge’s stories actively “hurt” the White House’s message “on a daily basis.” On one hand, the government has revealed it is not invincible to the onslaught of curious, honest, and hard-working journalists eager to obtain and report the truth. It shows just how vulnerable the man behind the curtain really is; in all his power, he’s upset over the few forms of media he can’t control. With Drudge continually pouring out their contradictions, the federal government is finding it harder to keep their stories straight and consistently gets caught off-guard. On the other hand, the DoD’s announcement that it will become more “engaged” with journalists is even more unsettling in light of the fact that just two weeks ago the CIA was recently given a green light to basically flood America with even more government propaganda, as reported in the August issue of Infowars Magazine. The fact that they’re openly announcing their intent to infiltrate the
media means they’re ready to move forward with plans to squelch the First Amendment. Indeed, this public announcement is the opening salvo of open war on the power of the press. “This is a completely cynical move by the Pentagon,” Jones says. “They’ve been engaged forever in domestic psy-op operations, but now that they’ve been blown wide open by alternative media, we’re seeing the psy-op of cognitive infiltration. “They say they’re going to reach out to the media (that means persuading members of the alternative media with money as well), basically setting up operations against it, but they’re announcing, ‘This is not an assault! We’re your friends! We come in peace! We promise we’ll be truthful and we’re gonna communicate! Listen to us!’ It’s actually the opposite. This is the Pentagon, psy-warfare, and cyber-security all declaring war on the First Amendment.” “The only huge website out there that you can call mainstream, but also alternative, that is really challenging the establishment is the Drudge Report, which should be considered a world treasure, along with all other alternative media. We shouldn’t be demoralized by this development. We should be excited, because this shows we’re having an effect in keeping freedom alive, and spreading it worldwide.”
Under the intellectual warfare doctrine that we saw in the Soviet Union and now being utilized in the United States on a much larger scale, groups that value God, morals, and personal rights are now being targeted in the sniper sights of globalism.

The Government Is Now God
I
n the shattered state of America today, where society is ruled under the iron fist of political correctness, the United States government is God. Acting as the ultimate provider for men, women, and children, we now have a population that relies on Obama’s “Big Daddy” government system for their every need — including what they can and cannot think. But we’re not just talking about intellectual and ideological tyranny of the mind, we’re talking about children now literally praying to Obama with virtually zero backlash, as those who dare to even mention the name of Jesus are prosecuted as criminals. You see, it’s essential to understand that the days of “Big Brother” have come to pass, with the bloated federal government now acting as the “Big Daddy” government for millions within the nation — the loving father figure of the masses that provides for its helpless children. No longer is the government simply a Big Brother system that is always looking over your shoulder and
utilizing intimidation to quell the masses, which was the dated government angle from the ’50s and ’60s to the early 2000s. Today, the government stands as a false replacement to God, and political correctness is the intellectual weapon of choice for “peacefully” altering public perception. This is the kind of government that has superseded anything written in Orwell’s 1984, moving past the blatant physical nature of telescreens and thought police and instead altering the very culture of society itself. As think tanks have discovered, a “peaceful” form of intellectual takeover is much more effective than a Hitlerstyle military blitzkrieg, because at the end of the day, the people still believe that they are free. But in reality, the Big Daddy government has incrementally placed itself as the central nervous system of a collapsing society that now suckles upon its tit for basic subsistence. After all, you didn’t build that, Big Daddy government did.
41
Government as an Artificial God Throughout History You’ve undoubtedly been exposed to the current welfare state of the nation via radio, television, and online reports, but the welfare state is just the beginning of Big Daddy government’s ascension to a counterfeit higher power. While there is most certainly a push by the Obama administration and its handlers to offer out welfare like candy to those who would rather collect government handouts than perform a relevant task to society, there are much deeper tentacles of the federal government that are wrapping themselves around the pulsating heart of the republic, actions that are obscured from typical nightly news reports. We have seen this throughout history with collapsing societies that deny the existence of a living God and fill the biological desire for a higher power with that of a runaway government. The notion of establishing government and its cronies as the replacement to God is actually an ancient one, though it took thousands of years before the prominent Marxists of the Soviet Union turned it into a formula. In fact, they dubbed the idea “God-Building.” Whether intentional or not, we see a hypermodernized version of the same concept each and every day. The premise of “God-Building” was, and is, simple: humans, by nature, hold a desire for a higher power, a natural understanding that there is more to life than meets the eye and that their actions do in fact count. For years, politicians going back to Roman heads of state have struggled with attempts to
42
remove this desire from the common man. After all, how can you rule a population through absolute dictatorship and public servitude when the populace has a strong moral system that does not allow for them to throw their fellow man under the bus or visualize the leader as a divine power? It simply cannot be done effectively, as leaders in the past have discovered through repeated attempts to do so. That’s why one Russian Marxist within Lenin’s close circle of power hungry think tanks knew that the Soviet Union had to be different. Taking this process and forging it into a methodical instrument of psychological warfare, it was the prerevolution member of Lenin’s party, Anatoly Lunacharsky, that would help shape Communism’s worldview focus around the idea of a “new religion” where government was God. Under this new hyper-Orwellian “religion,” Lunacharsky spun the concept as one that is based in “science” and abandons “supernatural beliefs.” This was the beginning of calculated God-building, which is based on the notion that the love of Big Daddy government as a God figure is highly “scientific” and the original realization of a living God outside of government is “old tradition.” Now interestingly enough, Lenin was on the official record actually claiming that he was against Lunacharsky’s concept, going even further into the previous ideology that any form of religion should be abolished — no ideology should exist outside of the state. But despite his opposition to God-building and his plans to wipe out all forms of ideology outside of the state, Lenin
would ultimately join the ranks of other sociopathic leaders to place a mega government in the center of the Soviet Union’s doctrine with himself as the Christ figure for all to adore. Thus, a new era was brought in under Lenin. Millions went along with the bogostroitel’stvo (God-Building) of big government as an artificial God. A government that ultimately gave its people one of the harshest periods of rule ever recorded in history under the ruthless idol Josef Stalin. The man who stood at 5’4” was given absolute power over all of the land, which he used to savagely murder millions. Why was he allowed to do so? Why did the military go along with it? Why did his closest friends and political advisers allow a 5’4” overweight psychopath to have his way with their wives and daughters? There are many psychological components to all of those questions, but the central theme must be remembered of government as an artificial God. The concept of corrupt leaders as an artificial God. Something that first requires the abolition of any God that is not the dictator himself. The result of such a system is ultimately the destruction of the entire society, usually lined with at least several million deaths in the process. In the case of Stalin’s Soviet Union, experts place the death toll at around 40 million — a number that is extremely conservative and factors in around 20 million deaths from non-combat related events like artificial famine and executions. According to one expert breakdown carried by the International Business Times, the numbers break down as follows: “1 million imprisoned or exiled between 1927 to 1929; 9 to 11 million peasants forced off their lands and another 2 to 3 million peasants arrested or exiled in the mass collectivization program; 6 to 7 million killed by an artificial famine in 1932 to 1934; 1 million exiled from Moscow and Leningrad in 1935; 1 million executed during the ‘Great Terror’ of 1937 to 1938; 4 to 6 million dispatched to forced labor camps; 10 to 12 million people forcibly relocated during World War II; and at least 1 million arrested for various ‘political crimes’ from 1946 to 1953.” Loving, isn’t it. Millions were hit with artificial famines, millions were executed or sent to labor camps, and virtually everyone was treated as complete trash from their God Josef Stalin. That is the result of not only
God-building, which is sometimes the result of calculated socialist/humanist ideology that actually turns the central government into the highest power among men, but the entire concept of trusting complete power to a small group of elite, or in the case of Josef Stalin, just one twisted man. We’ve seen it time and time again, even as far away as the “People’s Republic of China,” the name of which alone is highly dystopian. Not to be outdone by Hitler, the people’s God Mao Zedong systematically went around exterminating those who went against him — namely Christians, thought criminals, and random peasants who did nothing wrong. Mao did not even care if he was killing his greatest supporters. Just like Stalin’s death reign, researchers conservatively estimate that 45 million were killed at the very least. From The Independent: “Mr Dikötter, who has been studying Chinese rural history from 1958 to 1962, when the nation was facing a famine, compared the systematic torture, brutality, starvation, and killing of Chinese peasants to the Second World War in its magnitude. At least 45 million people were worked, starved, or beaten to death in China over these four years; the worldwide death toll of the Second World War was 55 million.” Notice that starvation and famine always plays a role in the mass murder plans of artificial government gods. Can you imagine if our fast food nation was left without food for a matter of months? The people are even more reliant upon our bloated Big Daddy government than ever before. We have virtually zero self-reliance in the nation as a whole, with an estimated 95 percent of the entire public counting on an operational central government in order to live their lives. When looking back at Russia, which actually had a population that was heavily into farming and self-sufficiency to a certain degree in many cases, we see how even members of that society lost their lives. In the United States today, even a minor disruption in the Big Daddy system could result in mass chaos within our reliant society. “God” and “Jesus” Now Politically Incorrect Thought Crime Words
become an extremely politically incorrect thought crime of sorts. Whether you believe in the power of Christ or not (the elite certainly don’t want you to), this government control of ideology is on track with the movements we discussed in regards to the Soviet Union system. Only this time they’re about one hundred times more powerful. The Soviet Union system was much more effective and powerful than Hitler’s Nazi system because it worked intellectually behind the scenes, taking bites into the general population that were so small they barely noticed that society had been eaten up when they opened their eyes. Hitler was much too aggressive and physical, forcing rebellion and open resistance like never before seen on an international level. Under the intellectual warfare doctrine that we saw in the Soviet Union and now being utilized in the United States on a much larger scale, groups that value God, morals, and personal rights are now being targeted in the sniper sights of globalism. But once again, the war is not waged in a “hot” fashion with paratrooper police kicking down the doors of Christians and rounding them up. Instead, the real God is being rooted out by political correctness and government science. Government Crackdown on Thought
Under the system in which the government has propped itself up as an artificial God, merely mentioning the name of Jesus has now
While Obama has children literally pray to him on video, the government says that you
cannot even use the name of Jesus now in many circumstances. Some such scenarios are pretty much ignored because they do not fit into the politically correct paradigm of the new Orwellian society, including the following that were also mentioned by journalist Michael Snyder in another report on government crackdown: • Sonoma State University ordering a student to remove the cross necklace she was wearing because it could “offend” someone. This, of course, stems from the political thought crime doctrine that really doesn’t have anything to do with stopping citizens from being “offended.” After all, gay pride protests sport drag queens simulating gay sex while wearing thongs in public, but that is not considered offensive by the establishment because it is politically correct to support grown men in thongs. Welcome to politically correct America. • A professor from Florida Atlantic University pushed it a step further, banning a student from class who refused to literally stomp on a picture of Jesus. Can you imagine if it were a picture of Obama? How about a picture of Trayvon Martin? You can be sure that the college would be under federal investigation within the hour, with CNN and MSNBC immediately declaring the college to be “deeply racist” and responsible for everything bad in the world. Stomping
43
on Jesus, however, is fine. See how the government is now truly held up as an artificial God? • The usage of the name Jesus was strictly forbidden in all prayers during the opening sessions of the North Carolina State House. You read that right, banned from prayers. It appears the North Carolina State House would much rather have you pray to Obama. • A high school track team dared to make a “gesture” thanking God for their victory and was ultimately disqualified for doing so. How dare they even gesture to thank God for anything they do, let alone actually say anything. Next time they should offer thanks to Obama for his help in their victory. • A public preacher faced potential arrest for “scaring people” by preaching biblical verses in public. • Public prayers from police chaplains in
44
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department are no longer allowed to even use the name of Jesus, as is the case nationally on a growing scale. • Teachers cannot give a Bible to a child on their own time and from their own library, and a teacher in New Jersey was fired for doing so. While you could argue here that the teacher’s role is to give the children an unbiased education, I would argue that the teacher most definitely would not have been fired for providing the child Barack Obama’s latest book. The war on reality via political correctness is heating up, and there is no question that the very same persecution I’ve highlighted here will spread. If we don’t take a stand now, it will only continue in a much broader spectrum. The attacks on the name of Jesus and related thought crime may not ‘affect’ you right now, but the attacks will soon spread. The artificial Government-God, as
we’ve seen with Stalin, is a very short term friend. Just as he empowered those who stood for communism and the abandonment of Christianity in the beginning, he soon would destroy them all. The power that is perceived from supporting the politically correct agenda is not only fleeting, but hollow. True power comes in resisting this tyranny and spreading the word. The simple reality is that when we take a stand and refuse to crumble to the politically correct doctrine, when we refuse to cower in fear because we are told we are “offending” the enslaved masses, we win the intellectual battle for our freedoms.

Official: Embassy Attack Threat “Had No Basis in Fact” The Terror Plot was Manufactured to Dampen Opposition to Drone Strikes
A
high-ranking Yemeni security official has told McClatchy that the Obama administration’s recently announced terror threat which supposedly targeted U.S. embassies had “no basis in fact” and was manufactured merely to dampen opposition to drone strikes. After initially warning of a terror plot “thought to have been one of the most serious against American and other Western interests since the September 11 attacks,” the U.S. closed 20 embassies and consulates earlier this month. The announcement of the threat occurred as it was simultaneously acknowledged that the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi last year was linked to a clandestine CIA arms smuggling operation based in the Libyan city to transport arms to rebels in Syria, many of whom are allied with al-Qaeda militants. The announcement of the threat against U.S. embassies also served to justify blanket NSA surveillance, leading some to suggest that the alleged plot was being hyped to distract from the Edward Snowden scandal. It was later claimed that the NSA had intercepted a “conference call” of al-Qaeda members during which militants discussed an attack. However, in a report entitled “U.S. embassies in Muslim world reopen amid still-murky threats,” McClatchy cites “a highranking Yemeni security official speaking on the condition of anonymity,” who told the news outlet that the threat “had no basis in fact,” with the source bemusedly attributing “media reports about imminent terror strikes
Furthermore, as the high-ranking Yemeni security official reveals, the administration is also apparently manufacturing terror plots in order to justify these drone strikes, as well as mass NSA surveillance.
to a single official’s comments, which he cast as a misguided attempt at shifting public opinion in the face of increasing and unpopular American drone strikes.” Dozens of people labeled as “suspected militants” by the U.S. have been killed in Yemen over the last two weeks as a result of at least eight drone strikes, attacks that have outraged Yemeni citizens. According to Princeton University professor and Yemen expert Gregory Johnson, the drone strikes are actually serving to recruit more terrorists. “There are strikes that kill civilians. There are strikes that kill women and children. And when you kill people in Yemen, these are people who have families. They have clans. And they have tribes. And what we’re seeing is that the United States might target a particular individual because they see him as a member of al-Qaeda, but what’s happening on the ground is that he’s being defended as a tribesman,” said Johnson. Figures show that 50 civilians are killed for every one terrorist taken out by a drone strike, which means that 95% of the victims are innocent men, women and children. As Ron Paul notes in his August 11 column, while the Obama administration is conducting drone strikes in Yemen to supposedly target al-Qaeda terrorists, the White House is simultaneously supporting the allies of alQaeda terrorists, the vast majority of whom have pledged allegiance to al-Qaeda, in Syria. Furthermore, as the high-ranking Yemeni security official reveals, the administration is also apparently manufacturing terror plots in order to justify these drone strikes, as well as mass NSA surveillance.

Red Dirt Report’s Review of “State of Mind”
I
t’s no secret that we here at Red Dirt Report have been concerned about the subtle (and overt) methods used by the establishment to keep the masses docile and controlled via different forms of mind control. We have written about it on a number of occasions, so we were very excited to learn late last year that Oklahoma City-based Free Mind Films was working on a follow-up to their explosive 2011 documentary “A Noble Lie: Oklahoma City 1995.” This new film, of course, is “State of Mind: The Psychology of Control,” and since it was officially released on DVD and Blu-ray late July, it has gone viral on the Internet. Directed by Oklahoma native and longtime street activist and filmmaker James Lane, “State of Mind” (which is being sold exclusively at the online store at Alex Jones’ Infowarsshop.com) takes viewers on a trip through the history of mind control, while also offering the viewer powerful information on how to empower themselves. Beginning with a quote from late 19th century American philosopher and psychologist William James, it reads: “Habit is thus the enormous fly-wheel of society, its most precious conservative agent. It alone is what keeps us all within the bounds of ordinance, and saves the children of fortune from the envious uprisings of the poor,” as featured in his book The Principles of Psychology from 1890. One of the people interviewed, historian Richard Grove, is also a co-writer for “State of Mind,” and he makes a salient point regarding the way children are taught to obey authority and how little changes into adulthood,
46
so many people are “in a state of extended adolescence.” Of course, people who “never grow up” are more susceptible to mind control and tend to be far more subservient, which, the filmmakers gently note, is what society’s controllers really want. After all, the “outsider” is usually scorned in much of human society, and therefore, the status quo is able to flourish, largely unquestioned. Systems of psychological control have been around a long time, and it’s only been recently that “the people” have been wising up to what “they” are really up to. Author Doug Valentine tells the interviewer that people are prodded to go along with the establishment indoctrination, or you are essentially left out of the fun. Charlotte Iserbyt, a former U.S. Dept. of Education policy advisor, notes that the idea of the “collective,” much through public education, has been foisted upon American and Western society and has played a role in shattering America’s former reputation as a nation of rugged individualism. Author G. Edward Griffin, later, emphasized Iserbyt’s points by explaining that the individualistic system of early America was indeed being pared down to make way for the collectivist future — the “New World Order” that former President George H.W. Bush spoke so glowingly about in 1990 and referenced by Vice-President Joe Biden this very year. Grim-faced investigative reporter Jon Rappoport warns in the film that if more people don’t resist the mind control methods exerted on society in the next half-century, people will be reduced to being “androids.”
The Psychology of Control
Later, Rappoport notes that mind control is nothing new. It’s ancient. Plato, Sun Tzu, Machiavelli, and many others were well aware of its power in earlier eras. After all, if you manipulate the masses through industry, people’s pastimes, education, religious, and political leanings, the program of divide and control can be successfully implemented. “Only the methods have changed,” he said. “Elites have always known, if I can control the minds of my people. I can control them.” Becoming a cog within the machine of the state is explained via the film. Destroying self-reliance and creating dependence is key. Artificial scarcity is also part of it, as well as making sure “thinking outside the box” happens as little as possible. But beyond that, as the Hegelian dialectic (problem, reaction, solution) explains, history can be manipulated in order to achieve a desired outcome. Create a crisis (9/11 terror attacks, for example) and get the whole nation on a war footing, demanding blood and vengeance. Airline passenger Kurt Haskell, an attorney in Michigan, is interviewed. He is the man who exposed the fraud of the “Underwear Bomber” story of Christmas ’09 by showing that it was all pre-planned and that they knew what would happen. After all, after that threat, the diabolical Michael Chertoff was pushing body scanners on the public. The Hegelian dialectic at work. Kaye Beach, a blogger and political activist from Norman, is also interviewed. She notes that the idea of the “Panopticon” is real and is part of the spy grid that is taking away our privacy bit by bit. Social Darwinism is examined as are the
novels of George Orwell (1984) and Aldous Huxley (and the technocratic future as explained in Brave New World), who is featured in a 1958 interview explaining that “the dictators” of the future will use drugs and “new techniques” of propaganda to rule the masses and that, sadly, many will come to love their slavery and servitude.” The 19th century Prussian model of education, which is what we use today, was perfected to create a class of workers and consumers who rarely think beyond what the larger community is thinking about. In fact, a brief clip of a 1972 interview with behaviorist B.F. Skinner is notable in that he says that the behavior of schoolchildren can be coerced and manipulated through conditioning, not unlike the rats in his infamous Skinner boxes. Skinner, we should note, said humans do not have free will. Think upon that. Alex Jones articulates a number of key points throughout the film, at one point addressing the 1966 book by Dr. Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, and how this “Rosetta Stone” of information, as Jones puts it, explains in over 1,000 pages how powerful globalists are using a “full-spectrum dominance model” to fund nearly everyone — fascists, communists, political parties of every stripe — while this secret group pulls the strings, benefiting from the toil of others as the “collective model” is securely planted. The Tavistock Institute, a British operation, is explained as are the numerous “foundations.” And the propaganda that is “catapulted” onto the public on a daily basis? Look no further than brilliant, early 20th-century propagandist Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud. Bernays, Alex Jones explains, is the “archetypal father of brainwashing and propaganda right as the age of television began. They took his sciences and just wrecked this country.” Bernays was the father of public relations and key to selling ideas to people and manipulating opinion. Is it any surprise that Bernays’ clients included Proctor & Gamble, General Motors, General Electric, United Fruit, Time Magazine, NBC, and CBS, among many others? As Bob Dylan said a long time ago: “If I want to find out anything, I’m not going to read Time Magazine … because they’ve got too much to lose by printing the truth.” Indeed. And don’t forget Project Paper Clip and the Nazi scientists who were brought to America
the psychology of control
and England during and after World War II, men who were experts in rocketry — and torture and mind control. This would pave the way for government mind-control programs via MK-ULTRA, which would be exposed in the 1970s. As Lt. Col. Craig Roberts (retired) notes, this was the government’s desire to create a “Manchurian candidate” or “super soldier,” to create, in effect, kamikaze-like troops. Four thousand human radiation experiments were conducted between 1944 and 1974 by the U.S. government, which included unsuspecting hospital patients forcibly injected with plutonium. Yes, it may sound like a bit much for the uninitiated, but it’s not, really. In fact, the filmmakers seemed to go out of their way to make sure that “State of Mind” is accessible, easy to follow, and pleasing to the eye, with graphics, stock footage, and historical interviews. Many other monstrous mind control doctors are profiled, like brainwashing and shock-therapy expert Ewen Cameron and Cameron’s protégé, the sinister Louis Jolyon “Jolly” West (who killed Tusko the elephant here at the Oklahoma City Zoo in 1962 with a potent mega-dose of LSD). West was a key figure in meeting and “treating” criminal figures from RFK assassin Sirhan Sirhan to Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The present and future appears to be being shaped by the smart grid. It’s all around us and, while useful to a certain degree, is a big piece of the puzzle in regards to controlling people in the 21st century and beyond. Don’t look for “State of Mind” on the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, or even the Jesse Ventura-friendly TruTv. My only complaint, and it’s minor, is the narrator’s slightly clipped Pennsylvania accent is a
tad distracting. I should add that filmmaker James Lane said in an interview that he and his team, including Austin Green, Chris Emery, and others, compiled reams of information and interviews, but could only include so much in the final product, which, I should add, ends on a hopeful note. Let’s face it. The military-media-industrial complex fears independent, truth-telling films like “State of Mind,” which are of the high-standard quality that would rival and surpass any ancient aliens, Bigfoot, or ghost hunting “documentaries” that are promoted on those aforementioned cable channels. That is why you, dear reader, must get this film, share it with friends and family, and educate yourself and them with the information therein. This review first appeared on RedDirtReport.com.

Foster Care System Traps Children into Vicious Cycle of Sex Abuse
Children Rescued From Sex Abuse Are Placed Right Back Into It
written by:
Lee Ann McAdoo
T
he FBI raid that rescued 105 sexually exploited children from a sex trafficking ring the last weekend of July has highlighted the vulnerability of foster children. According to The Los Angeles Times, 60 percent of runaways who are victims of sex trafficking had been in the custody of child protective services. Many times when children are rescued from sex traffickers they are put right back into the foster care system to repeat the same vicious cycle. Victims may even recruit other children into the very abuse they had just left. With the “child protectors” snatching even more children into the system to get more federal funding, there has become a serious shortage of good foster parents to handle the surplus of children, which means the bar has been set really low for people who can qualify to foster. A 2011 audit of Sacramento Foster Care facilities found the addresses of more than 1000 registered sex offenders matched the addresses of licensed foster-care facilities and homes. Almost 600 of those offenders were considered high risk. The report identified a number of factors endangering these children, including a failure to thoroughly and promptly investigate reports of neglect. Those who are paid to protect children couldn’t care less about their safety, so long as the feds come through with the big bucks. Sex traffickers prey on helpless children who feel abandoned by their families and lost in a system of providers that don’t bother to follow up on reports of

neglect. These are the type of children that are easily groomed for child sex slavery and prostitution. Now that sex trafficking and pedophilia have moved out of isolation and into a worldwide internet-based community of people sharing images and techniques, the demand has skyrocketed. According to the International Center for Missing and Exploited Children (ICMEC), of the millions of pornographic images on the internet, 10 percent are of infants and toddlers, while 76 percent are of pre-pubescent children. Let that sink in. Almost 90% of all porn on the internet is of exploited children. That’s why the Global Center for Women and Justice has said that “human trafficking is far more lucrative than the sale of drugs or arms because the children involved are considered reusable assets.” The consumers are not who you would suspect, according to the ICMEC, “They are doctors, lawyers, business executives, teachers, coaches, and everyone in between. They don’t look evil.” Indeed, you can still get a government contracted job even if you’re a convicted pimp. Even though George W. Bush enacted a law banning contractors who buy and sell humans from federal work, zero prosecutions have taken place. Organized trafficking requires systemic corruption, and as the FBI’s sting operation proved, it’s a very sophisticated network operating globally. A United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime Report states that the opportunities for corruption exist in a chain that includes police, customs agents, intelligence and security forces, local officials, persons with influence on public officials, and the list goes on and on.
Those who are paid to protect children couldn’t care less about their safety, so long as the feds come through with the big bucks.
These people aid in the criminal activity by not only ignoring it, but by actively obstructing an investigation and helping to organize the trafficking process. PressTV reports that rogue elements of police and intelligence services, as well as organized crime outfits, use blackmail as a means of control. They employ child prostitution rings to obtain blackmail material on politicians, judges, military and intelligence officers, and other key power brokers. Consider the case of Craig Spence, a Republican power broker in Washington who, according to The Washington Times, was implicated with a call-boy ring that supplied young boys to the Washington elite of both political parties. Spence’s mansion was found to be overflowing with surveillance equipment, including hidden cameras, microphones, and an abundance of twoway mirrors. The Washington Times further alleged that the ring was part of a CIA sexual blackmail operation, gathering compromising evidence on Washington politicos and foreign dignitaries. “The Finders” is another notorious CIAlinked child pimping ring.
After two men were arrested for brutally abusing six children between the ages of three and six, an investigation led police to warehouses in Washington, D.C., where they found evidence of a global child trafficking network, as well as proof that large numbers of captive children were being used in blood rituals and sexual orgies. Dr. Kevin Barrett of PressTV writes that Agent Ramon Martinez of the U.S. Customs Service and Detective James Bradley of the Washington, D.C. police were horrified at what they found. They were even more horrified when their investigation and attempted prosecution of the Finders was called off by the CIA. According to Agent Martinez’s report, the case of the Finders was deemed “a CIA internal matter,” and all details were “classified secret and not available for review.” What became known as “The Franklin Scandal” was a nationwide pedophile ring that implicated businessmen, senators, major media corporations, the CIA, and the Boys Town organization. Former CIA Director William Colby told Nebraska State Legislator John DeCamp that the CIA was heavily
involved in ritual child abuse. He informed DeCamp that the abused children were being used in CIA mind-control experiments, as well as blackmail projects. In a 2012 interview with The Ellis County Observer, DeCamp recalls how his investigation into the Franklin Scandal linked him with another high profile pedophile, salacious Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky. Earlier media reports established Sandusky as the figurehead for a more sinister role of providing children to wealthy and prominent donors. Sandusky founded The Second Mile in 1977, serving underprivileged and at-risk youth. It was here that he met his molestation victims. The world is no doubt a better place after the arrest of 150 low-level sex traffickers, but the FBI must take their investigation all the way to the top and bring down the elite pedophile organizations that continue to be too powerful for prosecution.

Marine Corps Colonel: Homeland Security Building “Domestic Army” Fallujah Veteran Says Government Is Afraid of Its Own Citizens
A
former Marine Corps Colonel who was stationed in Fallujah and trained Iraqi soldiers warns that the Department of Homeland Security is working with law enforcement to build a “domestic army,” because the federal government is afraid of its own citizens. The comments by Colonel Peter Martino were made during public testimony at a Concord City Council meeting on Tuesday. The meeting concerned a decision on whether to accept a $260,000 Homeland Security grant on behalf of the Central New Hampshire Special Operations Unit to purchase a BearCat armored vehicle. Referencing signs in the crowd which read “More Mayberry, Less Fallujah,” the Colonel spoke of how he didn’t even have armored vehicles when he was stationed in Fallujah. Martino’s role as a Ministry of Defense coordinator was to command, train, and equip the Iraqi Army, noting that he helped do everything he could “to make it as strong as possible,” but that “Homeland Security would kick their butts in a week.” Stressing that it was unlawful and unconstitutional to use U.S. troops on American soil, the Colonel warned, “What’s happening here is we’re building a domestic military,” adding that police are now “wearing the exact same combat gear that we had in Iraq, only it was a different color.” Martino warned that the DHS was following military tactics by “pre-staging gear and equipment” in order to build a “domestic army” while shrinking the U.S. military “because the government is afraid of its own citizens.” The Colonel slammed the idea of law enforcement purchasing militarized vehicles for domestic security, noting, “The last time more than ten terrorists were in one place at the same time was September 11, and all these vehicles in the world wouldn’t have prevented it, nor would it have helped anybody … I don’t know where we’re going to use this many vehicles or this many troops,” he continued, “Concord is just one cog in the wheel — we’re building an army over here, and I can’t believe that people aren’t seeing it. Is everybody blind?” The purchase of the vehicle has been surrounded by controversy after the city’s police chief wrote in an application filing to the DHS that the vehicle

“We’re building an army over here, and I can’t believe that people aren’t seeing it. Is everybody blind?” — Colonel Peter Martino
was needed to deal with the “threat” posed by libertarians, sovereign citizen adherents, and Occupy activists in the region. In his initial application, Police Chief John Duval wrote, “The State of New Hampshire’s experience with terrorism slants primarily towards the domestic type. We are fortunate that our State has not been victimized from a mass casualty event from an international terrorism strike, however, on the domestic front, the threat is real and here. Groups such as the Sovereign Citizens, Free Staters, and Occupy New Hampshire are active and present daily challenges.” Duval’s characterization of activists from across the political spectrum as terrorists
prompted outrage, but he refused to apologize, merely clarifying that his application may not have been worded correctly. Following the removal of the terms Sovereign Citizens, Free Staters, and Occupy New Hampshire from the application, the DHS made it clear that the grant would be approved. As The Concord Monitor reports, Tuesday’s public testimony also included a warning from Irena Goddard, who grew up in Czechoslovakia. “I do not want this deadly intimidation force of a military vehicle to suppress free speech, much like what was done with communist military tanks in Czechoslovakia,” she
said. Resident Jesse Mertz remarked that the militarization of law enforcement signaled that, “The military industrial complex has infiltrated every part of our society to the point where it’s now happening in our hometowns, and we’re seeing stuff occur that people said would never happen in our own country.” The Concord Council delayed the decision to purchase the vehicle and the matter will be taken up once again at next month’s meeting.

Toddler Dies in CPS Captivity After Being Taken from Marijuana-Smoking Parents A Tragic Warning to Parents of the State’s Overreaching Authority in Your Family
T
he investigation into the tragic case of 2-year-old Alexandria Hill, the toddler that was taken from her parents because they smoked pot and put in foster care with the woman that would eventually kill her, took a provocative turn that laid additional blame for her death at the feet of the Texas MENTOR program and Texas Child Protective Services. Round Rock, Texas, resident Joshua Hill’s daughter Alex, short for Alexandria, was removed from her parent’s home last November for “neglectful supervision” following her parents’ admission that they smoked pot after she was put to bed, reported ABC affiliate KVUE News. “We never hurt our daughter,” Hill said. “She was never sick, she was never in the hospital, and she never had any issues until she went into state care.” “Mr. Hill admitted to smoking marijuana in the house when his daughter has been upstairs sleeping,” the caseworker representing the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services noted in court records obtained by Infowars. In an ironic twist, an investigation into Alex’s foster parents by KVUE News found that the foster father with whom Alex was placed in late 2012 not only likely used marijuana, but was also convicted of selling it — twice. The first home Alex was placed in was a dangerous one, according to her father. “She
would come to visitation with bruises on her and mold and mildew in her bag. It got to a point where I actually told CPS that they would have to have me arrested because I wouldn’t let her go back.” She was next passed to the home of Texas Mentor Sherill Small, the wife of Clemon Small, in Rockdale where she stayed up until her untimely demise. Hill says he visited her several times and that the home seemed much better than the last, with his most recent visit being Thursday, July 25 when he got to take his daughter to McDonald’s. There was no warning that mere days later his daughter would be airlifted to the hospital where she would later die. Hill received an urgent call Monday, July 29 requesting he rush to the Scott and White Children’s Emergency Hospital in Temple, about an hour north of Round Rock. Hill was only told it concerned his daughter, and was kept in the dark as to exactly what to expect. When Hill arrived, he discovered his daughter was on life support and was bruised with head injuries. An autopsy performed August 2 found that Alex died from blunt force trauma to the head. According to KVUE, Hill needed just four more months before he could get his daughter back. “Clemon Small [Sherill Small’s husband] is not charged in the death of 2-year-old Alexandria Hill, but he has a criminal history that includes multiple marijuana drug charges and suspended driver’s licenses,” a report from KRXT states. According to KVUE, Clemon
was charged in 1989 and again in 1990 for “delivery of marijuana,” a crime which carries varying jail time depending on the amount of marijuana being delivered. The foster father’s criminal background apparently did not bar his home from the Texas MENTOR program’s potential foster parent roster. “Despite the background,” KRXT wrote, “the Department of Family and Protective Services said minor drug charges 10 years old or older do not disqualify potential foster parents.” This latest revelation adds an additional layer of culpability to the program that was in charge of vetting the foster parents, the Texas MENTOR program, as well as the legislative body which originally determined that living with her biological parents posed serious safety concerns. Texas CPS spokesperson Julie Moody says the agency is “still devastated,” but can in no way be held responsible as it was the Texas MENTOR program’s job to fully vet the foster parents. “Texas MENTOR is responsible for doing their due diligence,” Moody explained. The Texas MENTOR program is actually a subsidiary of The MENTOR Network, a national web of service providers soliciting “Therapeutic Foster Care” in more than 33 states. On its website, it states that “just about anyone” can be a Mentor. On August 2, the Texas MENTOR program came out with a statement offering their condolences for Alex’s passing, ensuring the foster mother met mentor standards and asserting their commitment to assist
53
law enforcement. “ […] The on-going law enforcement investigation and privacy laws, as well as the fact that our own internal review is not complete, limit our ability to provide some of the specific information requested. However, we can inform you that Sherill Small and her husband met the requirements to foster children, including background checks in accordance with state regulation (Texas Department of Public Safety criminal history database check, Texas Department of Family and Protective Services Central Registry abuse/neglect database, Federal Bureau of Investigation criminal history, and federal Office of Inspector General exclusion check)…” KVUE News found state records that “show 15 total deficiencies for the Austin branch of that agency over the past two years,” the branch that most likely acquired Small as a foster parent. They also found that four of those 15 times were for failure to perform proper background checks. While Small is being held on a $100,000 bond and is being charged with murder, proper light need also be shed on Texas CPS’s initial decision to take Alex from what seemed like harmless, loving parents. The media is quick to lay the blame on the murderous foster parent and the agency that provided her, and rightfully so, but the system
54
that stole Alex from her parents in the first place should also be scrutinized. The ruthless system that can legally kidnap children from their parents, literally tearing families apart, for such trivial crimes as smoking pot is indeed an authoritarian one. While some blame stringent drug laws for Alex’s unfortunate tragedy, the true culprit may ultimately be the CPS system that facilitated her abduction. A similar CPS atrocity happened in 2004 when Tausha Cram’s daughter, Adrianna Romero Cram, was taken from her after anonymous tips complained she was unfit for parenting and using drugs. In 2004, Adrianna, under the protective custody of the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS), was sent to Omealca, Veracruz, a village in southern Mexico, to live with her biological father’s family. The teachers and principal at Adrianna’s new school began noticing she was losing weight and arriving with multiple cuts, bruises, and burns, including one she said was derived from her foster parents placing her hands over a stove. On June 13, 2005, she died. Initial reports to Oregon’s DHS stated she had died of natural causes, but her foster parents were eventually convicted of murder. Oregon’s DHS announced in March 2009 they would stop sending foster children to other countries. Alexandria’s case should serve as a warning
to parents who smoke marijuana that the state can use the non-violent and relatively harmless recreational activity as an excuse to confiscate children, placing them in facilities usually run for profit and washing its hands clean of liability if that child dies while in its “protective” custody. Just as Congress has exempted itself and its top aides from Obamacare and just as lawmakers are being issued license plates that allow them to thwart traffic cameras to avoid fines, CPS and its foster care agency are above scrutiny and will escape prosecution for their dubious choice of foster parents, as well as their initial decision to remove Alexandria from her parents. Despite an immensely spotty track record, the state continues to arbitrarily insert itself into the lives of families, then exempts itself from liability if something should happen. Sadly, Alexandria is only one out of literally thousands of children who have had to suffer as a result of the CPS system failing miserably.

CIA Sued Over Whether Top Secret Info Helped Hollywood Directors Make “Pro-Obama” Film Did White House Jeopardize National Security While Prosecuting Whistleblowers?
J
udicial Watch is suing the CIA in order to obtain the guest list from a June 2011 awards ceremony, during which former CIA Director Leon Panetta revealed “top secret” information in the presence of “Zero Dark Thirty” filmmaker Mark Boal, in order to ascertain whether the White House jeopardized national security in order to help Hollywood directors make a “pro-Obama” film. The conservative watchdog group is seeking “Any and all guest lists or other records identifying individuals who attended and/or were invited to attend the June 24, 2011 awards ceremony at CIA Headquarters for individuals involved in the search for, and killing of, Osama bin Laden,” in addition to, “Any and all records of communication between any official, employee, or representative of the Central Intelligence Agency and any other party regarding the attendance of Mr. Mark Boal at the aforementioned awards ceremony.”
56
Judicial Watch also highlights the hypocrisy of the Obama administration in pursuing whistleblowers, like Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden, while simultaneously revealing sensitive information to Hollywood directors.
Despite being required by law to respond to Judicial Watch’s December 19 Freedom of Information Act request on the matter within 20 days, the CIA denied the request and invited the group to make an appeal to the Agency Release Panel. Deciding that no administrative appeal was possible, Judicial Watch launched the lawsuit on June 21 and announced it August 8 on their website. During Panetta’s speech at the ceremony, the former CIA Director revealed, according to Politico.com, “the name of the Navy SEAL unit that carried out the Osama bin Laden raid,” the unit’s ground commander, as well as other “classified information designated as ‘top secret’ and ‘secret.’” Judicial Watch also highlights the hypocrisy of the Obama administration in pursuing whistleblowers, like Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden, while simultaneously revealing sensitive information to Hollywood directors. “Panetta’s disclosures at the CIA ceremony with Mark Boal present, along with the leaks
revealed in the earlier documents obtained by Judicial Watch, provide conclusive backing to the serious charge that the Obama administration has played fast and loose with national security information in order to help Hollywood filmmakers make a pro-Obama film,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “In light of the Manning conviction and Snowden drama, it is clear that the Obama administration is more than a little two-faced when it comes to enforcing the law on illegal leaks.” “Zero Dark Thirty,” which is a dramatization of the alleged assassination of Osama bin Laden, was castigated by lawmakers, including torture victim John McCain, as “grossly inaccurate and misleading” for its suggestion that torture aided in the discovery of Bin Laden’s compound. Promotional material for the movie began circulating before last year’s presidential election, leading some to accuse the Obama administration, which had worked closely with filmmakers, of trying to regurgitate the bin Laden assassination for scoring political
points. The CIA directly authorized the movie’s writer Mark Boal to conduct interviews with CIA officers, military officers, and White House officials about the raid, during which Boal was allegedly given classified information, “apparently in the belief that the public would appreciate the movie that resulted,” wrote The New York Review of Books. While constantly citing “national security threats” as a justification to become more and more secretive, the CIA was apparently carefree about handing out sensitive intelligence to a movie writer as part of a PR coup for the agency.

Time Magazine Promotes a Childless Lifestyle As the Path to the Good Life for U.S. Couples
T
here is a relentless assault on the family in America today unlike anything that we have ever seen before. For decades, the entertainment industry and the mainstream media have been portraying marriage as the time “when your fun is over,” and they have been encouraging young adults to put off marriage for as long as possible. Now the marriage rate in the United States is at a record low, and the average age for a first marriage is at a record high. Meanwhile, the entertainment industry and the mainstream media have been heavily promoting the philosophy that having fewer children is better, and teaching our young people that abortion is really a good option if an unwanted pregnancy comes along. The whole idea is that children are going to keep you from enjoying the kind of life that you really deserve to have. This philosophy is taken even further in a new Time Magazine article. The article is entitled “The Childfree Life: When Having It All Means Not Having Children,” and it openly promotes a “childless lifestyle” as the path to the good life for young U.S. couples. The following is how the article begins: “One evening when she was 14 years old, Laura Scott was washing dishes in the kitchen with her mother when she decided she didn’t want to have a child. At 26, Scott got married and waited for her mind to change. ‘It never happened,’ she says. ‘And I realized I was going to be fine.’ Now 50, Scott is more than fine: she’s fulfilled. And she’s not alone. The birthrate in the U.S. is the lowest in recorded American history. From 2007 to 2011, the most recent year for which there’s data, the fertility rate declined 9%. A 2010 Pew Research report showed that childlessness has risen across all racial and ethnic groups, adding up to about 1 in 5 American women who end their childbearing years maternity-free, compared with 1 in 10 in the 1970s.” The article goes on to point out that the average cost of raising a child born in 2011 to adulthood will be approximately $234,900, and it suggests that women should think long and hard before making such a commitment. Well, what is a woman to do if she gets pregnant and decides that raising that child will ruin her life? According to the entertainment industry and the mainstream media, abortion is a very simple answer to that problem. In America today, the vast majority of abortions are done for the sake of convenience. Abortion is essentially
a human sacrifice to our own selfishness, and there are millions upon millions of Americans that will go to any lengths to justify the murder of their own children. In fact, it has gotten so bad that now many liberal thinkers are even postulating that life may not even begin at birth, unless parents decide that it does. Yes, that sounds absolutely insane, but that is apparently what MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry believes as Breitbart reports: “MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry thinks she has the answer to the age-old question of just when life begins. Her answer: life begins whenever parents ‘decide’ it does. “Practically since the beginning of the national abortion debate, the most fought over question between the pro-abortion and pro-life sides is just when does life begin? In an attempt to avoid the arbitrary, most try to utilize some sort of scientific reasoning to decide when life is life. The pro-life side says life begins as soon as the egg is fertilized, while the pro-abortion side often contends that life isn’t life until it is self-sustaining, meaning a fetus isn’t a ‘life’ until it can survive outside the womb. “But here comes extreme left-winger Harris-Perry who offers the most arbitrary criteria of all: whenever anyone feels like life begins, then that is ‘life.’ “‘When does life begin? I submit the answer depends an awful lot on the feeling of the parents. A powerful feeling — but not science,’ Harris-Perry said on her July 21 MSNBC show.” As a result of our national obsession with selfishness, our population growth has now fallen below replacement rate. The following is from a recent article by Aaron Dykes and Melissa Melton: “Meanwhile, most Western nations are now facing a ‘baby bust,’ with population growth falling well below the replacement rate. The global fertility rate has fallen to 2.42 births in 2011 numbers (with 2.1 needed for statistical replacement, an equilibrium of human births). The United States, like other Western nations, has already fallen below replacement rate, with a population growth rate of 0.9% and falling, insufficient for continuity, which in turn affects the possibilities for economic growth.” Today, we look around and wonder where we will get the trillions of dollars of retirement benefits that we have promised to the Baby Boomers. Well, if we had not aborted more than 50 million babies

since Roe v. Wade was decided, perhaps we would have enough workers to pay the bills. Our obsession with selfishness has also resulted in the U.S. marriage rate dropping to an all-time record low, as reported by Religion Today. “The marriage rate has fluctuated in the past, with dips in the 1930s and 1960s, but it has been in steady decline since the 1970s. Now, researchers report that the marriage rate has dropped to a new low of 31.1, meaning there are about 31 marriages in the U.S. for every 1,000 unmarried women, researchers found. In 1950, that number was 90.2. In 1920, it was 92.3.” In America today, young men and young women are both taught that they need to put off marriage until after their educations are completed and their careers have started. So instead of entering into committed relationships at a young age like previous generations did, our young people are being encouraged to embrace “the hookup culture.” The following is an excerpt from a recent Townhall.com article by Mona Charen entitled “The New Brainwashing: Women Like Hookups.” “Fifty years on, we have this dispatch from the University of Pennsylvania: “Sex on Campus: She Can Play That Game Too,” a New
60
York Times account of the way women at one Ivy League school are supposedly ‘hooking up’ in preference to having relationships. It’s not that the sexual revolution actually favored men, the Times reassures its readers, it’s just that women are too focused on careers to make time for men. They pursue sex with ‘hookup buddies’ without a flicker of regret. “This is the new brainwashing. Women have been sold (and sold and sold) on the notion that happiness and fulfillment are to be found in careers. Marriage and children are items to be calendared after the MBA, J.D., or Ph.D. Sex is recreation. Getting attached to the human being behind the sex organ can limit your internship options. “Cheerleading articles like Hanna Rosin’s 2012 Atlantic piece, ‘Boys on the Side,’ argue that far from enduring the ‘hook-up culture,’ women are enjoying their promiscuous freedom. The New York Times piece is in that mold.” In this type of environment, anyone that embraces the “old ways” is considered to be abnormal. In fact, Entertainment Weekly reports that MTV plans to do a new “freaks on display” reality show about virgins that they hope will get very high ratings: “This as-yet-untitled show follows the lives
of several abstinent young people (ages 18 to 25) trying to handle their love lives, parental sex talks, sexually active friends, and the pressure to give in to their temptations. Throughout each episode, MTV chronicles v-card-carrying cast members from across the country, all ‘plagued with the overwhelming question of keeping their virginity … or losing it.’” Sadly, our entire society is rapidly rejecting traditional values regarding marriage, sex, and family. If you can believe it, Barack Obama recently even nominated someone for a federal judge position that believes that abstinence education is “unconstitutional.” Our nation is rapidly changing, and not for the better.
