SUBJECT: ALIEN INTERVIEW, 26. 7. 1947, 1st
Session
"The Domain Expeditionary Force has observed a resurgence in science
and culture of the Western world since 1150 AD when the remaining
remnants of the space fleet of the "Old Empire" in this solar system
were destroyed. The influence of the remote control 81 (Footnote)
hypnosis operation diminished slightly after that time, but still
remains largely in force.
Apparently a small amount of damage was done to the "Old Empire"
remote mind control 82 (Footnote) operation which resulted in a
small decrease in the power of this mechanism. As a result, some
memory of technologies that IS-BEs already knew before they came to
Earth started to be remembered. Thereafter the oppression of
knowledge that is called the "Dark Ages" 83 (Footnote) in Europe
began to diminish after that time.
Since then knowledge of the basic laws of physics
84 (Footnote) and
electricity 85 (Footnote) have revolutionized Earth culture
virtually overnight.
The ability to remember technology by many of
the geniuses in the IS-BE population of Earth was partially
restored, when not so actively suppressed as it was before 1150 AD.
Sir Isaac Newton, 86 (Footnote) is one of the best examples of this.
In only a few decades he single-handedly reinvented several
major and fundamental scientific and mathematical disciplines.
The men who "remembered" these sciences
already knew them before
they were sent to Earth. Ordinarily, no one would ever observe or
discover as much about science and mathematics in a single
life-time, or even in a few hundred life-times. These subjects have
taken civilizations billions and billions of years to create!
IS-BEs on Earth have only just begun to remember small fragments of
all the technologies that exist throughout the universe.
Theoretically, if the amnesia mechanisms being used against Earth
could be broken entirely, IS-BEs would regain all of their memory!
Unfortunately, similar advances have not been seen in the humanities
as the IS-BEs of Earth continue to behave very badly toward each
other. This behavior, however, is heavily influenced by the
"hypnotic commands" given to each IS-BE between lifetimes.
87 (Footnote)
And, the very unusual combination of "inmates" on Earth - criminals,
perverts, artists, revolutionaries and geniuses - is the cause of a
very restive and tumultuous environment. The purpose of the prison
planet is to keep IS-BEs on Earth, forever. Promoting ignorance,
superstition, and war between IS-BEs helps to keep the prison
population crippled and trapped behind "the wall" of electronic
force screens.
IS-BEs have been dumped on Earth from all over the galaxy, adjoining
galaxies, and from planetary systems all over the "Old Empire", like
Sirius, Aldebaran, the Pleiades, Orion, Draconis, and countless
others.
There are IS-BEs on Earth from unnamed races, civilizations,
cultural backgrounds, and planetary environments. Each of the
various IS-BE populations have their own languages, belief systems,
moral values, religious beliefs, training and unknown and untold
histories.
These IS-BEs are mixed together
with earlier inhabitants of Earth who came from another star
system more than 400,000 years ago to establish the
civilizations of
Atlanta
88 (Footnote) and
Lemuria 89 (Footnote). Those civilizations vanished beneath the tidal waves
caused by a planetary "polar shift", 90 (Footnote) many thousands of
years before the current "prison" population started to arrive.
Apparently, the
IS-BEs from those star systems were the source of the original,
oriental races of Earth, beginning in Australia.
On the other hand, the civilizations set up on Earth by the "Old
Empire" prison system were very different from the civilization of
the "Old Empire" itself, which is an electronic space opera, atomic
powered conglomeration of earlier civilizations that were conquered
with nuclear weapons and colonized by IS-BEs from another galaxy.
The bureaucracy that controlled the former "Old Empire" was from an
ancient space opera society, run by a totalitarian 91 (Footnote)
confederation of planetary governments, regulated by a brutal
social, economic, and political hierarchy, 92 (Footnote) with a
royal monarch as its figurehead. 93 (Footnote)
This type of government emerges with regularity on planets where the
citizens abandon personal responsibility for autonomous,
self-regulation. They frequently lose their freedom to demented IS-BEs
who suffer from an overwhelming paranoia that every other IS-BE is
their enemy who must be controlled or destroyed. Their closest
friends and allies, whom they espouse to love and cherish, are
literally "loved to death" by them.
Because such IS-BEs exist, The Domain has learned that freedom must
be won and maintained through eternal vigilance and the ability to
use defensive force to maintain it. As a result, The Domain has
already conquered the governing planet of the "Old Empire". The
civilization of The Domain, although considerably younger and
smaller in size, is already more powerful, better organized, and
united by a egalitarian esprit de corps 94 (Footnote) never known in
the history of the "Old Empire".
The recently despoiled German totalitarian state on Earth was
similar to the "Old Empire", but not nearly as brutal, and about ten
thousand times less powerful. Many of the IS-BEs on Earth are here
because they are violently opposed to totalitarian government, 95
(Footnote) or because they were so psychotically vicious that they
could not be controlled by "Old Empire" government.
Consequently, the population of Earth is disproportionately
comprised of a very high percentage of such beings. The conflicting
cultural and ethical moral codes of the IS-BEs on Earth is unusual
in the extreme.
The Domain conquest of the central "Old Empire" planets was fought
with electronic cannon. 96 (Footnote)
The citizens of the planets
forming the core of government for the "Old Empire" are a filthy,
degraded, slave society of mindless, tax-paying workers, who
practice cannibalism. Violent automotive race tracks and bloody,
Roman circus type entertainments are their only amusements.
Regardless of any reasonable justification we may have had for using
atomic weapons to vanquish the planets of the "Old Empire", The
Domain is careful not to ruin the resources of those planets by
using weapons of crude, radioactive force.
The current U.S. civilization is beginning to mimic some of the
trappings of that civilization, especially in the design of
airplanes, automobiles, ships, trains, and telephones. Likewise,
buildings in the cities of Earth are thought to be "modern" or
"futuristic" if their design resembles the architecture of the "Old
Empire".
The government of the "Old Empire", before being supplanted by The
Domain, was comprised of beings who possessed a very craven
intelligence, very much like the Axis powers 97 (Footnote) during
your recent world war. Those beings manifested precisely the same
behavior as the galactic government that exiled them to eternal
imprisonment on Earth.
They were a gruesome reminder of the ageless
maxim that an IS-BE will often manifest the treatment they have
received from others. Kindness fosters kindness. Cruelty begets
cruelty. One must be able and willing to use force, tempered with
intelligence, to prevent harm to the innocent. However,
extraordinary understanding, self-discipline and courage are
required to effectively prevent brutality, without being overwhelmed
by the malice that motivated the brutality.
Only a demonic, self-serving government would employ a "logic" or
"science" to conceive that an "ultimate solution" to any problem is
to murder and permanently
erase the memory of every artist, genius, skilled manager, and
inventor, and cast them into a planetary prison together with
political opponents, killers, thieves, perverts, and disabled beings
of an entire galaxy!
Once the IS-BEs expelled from the "Old Empire" arrived on Earth,
they were given amnesia, and hypnotically tricked into thinking that
something else had happened to them. The next step was to implant
the IS-BEs into biological bodies on Earth. The bodies became the
human populations of "false civilizations" which were designed and
installed in the minds of IS-BEs to look completely unlike the "Old
Empire".
All of the IS-BEs of India, Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome, and
Medieval Europe were guided to pattern and build the cultural
elements of these societies based on standard patterns developed by
the IS-BEs of many earlier, similar civilizations on "Sun Type 12,
Class 7" planets that have existed for trillions of years throughout
the universe.
In the earliest times the IS-BEs sent to prison Earth lived in
India. They gradually spread into Mesopotamia, Egypt, Mesoamerica,
Achaea, Greece, Rome, Medieval Europe, and to the New World. They
were hypnotically "commanded" to follow the pattern of a given
civilization by the "Old Empire" prison operators. This is an
effective mechanism to disguise the actual time and location from
the IS-BEs imprisoned on Earth. The languages, costumes and culture
of each false civilization are intended to reinforce amnesia because
they do not remind the IS-BEs on Earth of the original "Old Empire"
planets from which they were deported.
On the very far back-track of time these types of civilizations
tended to repeat themselves over and over because the IS-BEs who
created them become familiar with certain patterns and styles, and
stayed with them. It is a lot of work to invent an entire
civilization, complete with culture, architecture, language,
customs, mathematics, moral values, and so forth. It is much easier
to replicate a copy based on a familiar and successful pattern.
A "Sun Type 12, Class 7" planet is the designation given to a planet
inhabited by carbon-oxygen based life forms. The class of the planet
is based on the size and radiation intensity of the star, the
distance of the planetary orbit from the star, and the size,
density, gravity, and chemical composition of the planet. Likewise,
flora and fauna are designated and identified according to the star
type and class of planet they inhabit.
On the average, the percentage of planets in the physical universe
with a breathable atmosphere is relatively small. Most planets do
not have an atmosphere upon which life-forms "feed", as on Earth,
where the chemical composition of the atmosphere provides nutrition
to plants, and other organisms, which in turn support other life
forms.
When the Domain Force brought the Vedic Hymns
98 (Footnote) to the
Himalayas region 8,200 years ago, some human societies already
existed. The Aryan people invaded and conquered India 99 (Footnote), bringing the Vedic Hymns
100 (Footnote) to the area.
The Vedas were learned by them, memorized and carried forward
verbally for 7,000 years before being committed to written form.
During that span of time one of the officers of The Domain
Expeditionary Force was incarnated on Earth as "Vishnu"
101 (Footnote). He is described many times in the Rig-Veda. He is still
considered to be a god by the Hindus. Vishnu fought in the religious
wars against the "Old Empire" forces. He is a very able and
aggressive IS-BE as well as a highly effective officer, who has
since been reassigned to other duties in The Domain.
This entire episode was orchestrated as an attack and revolt against
the Egyptian pantheon installed by "Old Empire" administrators. The
conflict was intended to help free humankind from implanted elements
of the false civilization that focused attention on many "gods" and
superstitious ritual worship demanded by the priests who "managed"
them. It is all part of the mental manipulation by the "Old Empire"
to hide their criminal actions against the IS-BEs on Earth.
A priesthood, or prison guards, were used to help reinforce the idea
that an individual, is only a biological body, and is not an
Immortal Spiritual Being. The individual has no identity. The
individuals have no past lives. 102 (Footnote) The individual has no
power. Only the gods have power. And, the gods are a contrivance of
the priests who intercede between men and the gods they serve.
Men
are slaves to the dictates of the priests who threaten eternal
spiritual punishment if men do not obey them.
What else would one expect on a
prison planet where all prisoners
have amnesia, and the priests themselves are prisoners? The
intervention of The Domain Force on Earth has not been entirely
successful due to the secret mind-control operation of the "Old
Empire" that still continues to operate.
A battle was waged between the "Old Empire" forces and The Domain
through religious conquest. Between 1500 BCE and about 1200 BCE, The
Domain Forces attempted to teach the concept of an individual,
Immortal Spiritual Being to several influential beings on Earth.
One such instance resulted in a very tragic misunderstanding,
misinterpretation and misapplication of the concept. The idea was
perverted and applied to mean that there is only one IS-BE, instead
of the truth that everyone is an IS-BE! Obviously, this was a gross
incomprehension and an utter unwillingness to take responsibility
for one's own power.
The "Old Empire" priests managed to corrupt the concept of
individual immortality into the idea that there is only one,
all-powerful IS-BE, and that no one else is or is allowed to be an
IS-BE. Obviously, this is the work of the "Old Empire" amnesia
operation.
It is easy to teach this altered notion to beings who do not want to
be responsible for their own lives. Slaves are such beings. As long
as one chooses to assign responsibility for creation, existence and
personal accountability for one's own thoughts and actions to
others, one is a slave.
As a result, the concept of a single monotheistic "god" resulted and
was promoted by many self-proclaimed
prophets, such as the Jewish slave leader - Moses - 103 (Footnote)
who grew up in the household of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III 104
(Footnote) and his son, Akhenaten 105 (Footnote) and his wife
Nefertiti, 106 (Footnote) as well as his son Tutankhamen.
107 (Footnote)
The attempt to teach certain beings on Earth the truth that they
are, themselves, IS-BEs, was part of a plan to overthrow the
fictional, metaphorical, anthropomorphic panoply of gods created by
the "Old Empire" mystery cult called "The Brothers of The Serpent"
108 (Footnote) known in Egypt as the Priests of Amun.
109 (Footnote)
They were a very ancient, secret society within the "Old Empire".
The Pharaoh Akhenaten was not a very intelligent being, and was
heavily influenced by his personal ambition for self-glorification.
He altered the concept of the individual spiritual being and
embodied the concept in the sun god, Aten. His pitiful existence was
soon ended. He was assassinated by Maya and Parennefer, two of the
Priests of Amun, or "Amen", which the Christians still say, who
represented the interests of the "Old Empire" forces.
The idea of "One God" was perpetuated by the Hebrew leader Moses
110 (Footnote) while he was in Egypt. He left Egypt with his adopted
people, the Jewish slaves. While they were crossing the desert,
Moses was intercepted by an operative of the "Old Empire" near Mt.
Sinai. Moses was tricked into believing that this operative was
"the" One God through the use of hypnotic commands, as well as
technical and aesthetic tricks which are commonly used by the "Old
Empire" to trap IS-BEs.
Thereafter, the Jewish slaves, who trusted
the word of Moses implicitly, have worshiped a single god they call
"Yaweh". 111 (Footnote).
The name "Yaweh" means "anonymous", as the IS-BE who "worked with"
Moses could not use an actual name or anything that would identify
himself, or blow the cover of the amnesia/prison operation. The
last thing the covert amnesia/hypnosis/prison system wants to do
is to reveal themselves openly to the IS-BEs on Earth. They feel
that this would restore the inmates memories!
This is the reason that all traces of physical encounters between
operatives of space civilizations and
humans is very carefully hidden, disguised, covered-up, denied or
misdirected.
This "Old Empire" operative contacted Moses on a desert mountain top
and delivered the "Ten Hypnotic Commands" to him. These commands are
very forcefully worded, and compel an IS-BE into utter subservience
to the will of the operator. These hypnotic commands are still in
effect and influence the thought patterns of millions of IS-BEs
thousands of years later!
Incidentally, we later discovered that the so-called "Yaweh" also
wrote, programmed and encoded the text of the Torah, which when it
is read literally, or in its decoded, 112 (Footnote) form, will
provide a great deal more false information to those who read it.
Ultimately, the Vedic Hymns became the source of nearly all of
Eastern the religions and were the philosophical source of the ideas
common to Buddha 113 (Footnote), Laozi 114 (Footnote), Zoroaster
115 (Footnote), and other philosophers.
The civilizing influences of these philosophies eventually replaced
the brutal idolatry of the "Old Empire" religions and were the true
genesis of kindness and compassion.
You asked me earlier why The Domain, and other space civilizations
do not land on Earth or make their presence known. Land on Earth? Do
you think we are crazy or want to be crazy? It takes a very brave
IS-BE to come down through the atmosphere and land on Earth, because
this is a prison planet, with a very uncontrolled, psychotic
population. And, no IS-BE is entirely proof against the risk of
entrapment, as with the members of The Domain Expeditionary Force
who were captured in the Himalayas 8,200 years ago.
No one knows what IS-BEs on Earth are going to do. We are not
scheduled to invest the resources of The Domain to take total
control of all the space surrounding the area at this time. This
will occur in the not-to-distant future - about 5,000 Earth years
- according to the time schedule of The Domain. At this time we do
not prevent transports from other planetary systems or galaxies from
continuing to drop IS-BEs into the amnesia force screen area.
Eventually, this will change.
In addition, Earth, inherently, is a highly unstable planet. It is
not suitable for settlement or permanent habitation for any
sustainable civilization. This is part of the reason why it is being
used as a prison planet.
No one else would seriously consider living
here for a variety of simple and compelling reasons:
-
The continental land masses of Earth are floating on a sea of
molten lava beneath the surface which causes the land masses to
crack, crumble and drift continually. 116 (Footnote)
-
Because of the liquid nature of the core, the planet is largely
volcanic and subject to earthquakes and volcanic explosions.
-
The magnetic poles of the planet shift radically about once every
20, 000 years. 117 (Footnote) This causes a greater or lesser degree
of devastation as a result of tidal waves, and climatic changes.
-
Earth is very distant from the center of the galaxy
and from any other significant galactic civilization.
This isolation makes it unsuitable for use, except as a
"pit stop" or jumping off point along the way between
galaxies. The moon and asteroids are far more suitable
for this purpose because they do not have any
significant gravity.
-
Earth is a heavy gravity planet, with heavy metallic soil and a
dense atmosphere. This makes it treacherous for navigational
purposes. That fact that I am in this room, as the result of an in
flight accident, in spite of the technology of my craft and my
extensive expertise as a pilot, are proof of these facts.
-
There are approximately sixty
billion Earth-like (Sun Type 12, Class 7) planets in the
Milky Way galaxy alone, not to mention the vast expanses of
The Domain, and the territories we will claim in the future.
It is
difficult to stretch our resources to do much more than a periodic
reconnaissance of Earth. Especially when there are no immediate
advantages to invest resources here.
-
On Earth most beings are not aware that they are IS-BEs, or that
there are spirits of any kind. Many other beings are aware of this,
but nearly everyone has a very limited understanding of themselves
as an IS-BE.
One of the reasons for this is that IS-BEs have been waging war
against each other since the beginning of time.
The purpose of these
wars have always been to establish domination by one IS-BE or group
of IS-BEs over another. Since an IS-BE cannot be "killed", the
objective has been to capture and immobilize IS-BEs. This has been
done in an nearly unlimited variety of ways. The most basic method
to capture and immobilize an IS-BE is through the use of various
kinds of "traps".
IS-BE traps have been made and put in place by many invading
societies, such as the one that established the "Old Empire",
beginning about sixty-four trillion years ago. Traps are often set
up in the "territory" of the IS-BEs being attacked. Usually a trap
is set with the electronic wave of "beauty" to attract the interest
and attention of the IS-BE. When the IS-BE moves toward the source
of the aesthetic wave, such as a beautiful building or beautiful
music, the trap is activated by the energy put out by the IS-BE.
One of the most common trap mechanism uses the IS-BE's own thought
energy output when the IS-BE tries to attack or fight back against
the trap. The trap is activated and energized by the IS-BE's own
thought energy. The harder the IS-BE fights against the trap, the
more it pulls the IBS toward it and keeps them "stuck" in the trap.
Throughout the entire history of this physical universe, vast areas
of space have been taken over and colonized by IS-BE societies who
invade and take over new areas of space in this fashion.
In the
past, these invasions have always shared common elements:
-
the overwhelming use of force of arms, usually with nuclear or
electronic weapons.
-
mind control of the IS-BEs in the invaded area through the use of
electroshock, drugs, hypnosis, erasure of memory and the
implantation of false memory or false information intended to
subjugate and enslave the local IS-BE population.
-
take over of natural resources by the invading IS-BEs.
-
political, economic and social slavery of the local population.
These activities continue in present time.
All of the IS-BEs on
Earth have been members of one or more of these activities in the
past, both as an invader, or as part of the population being
invaded. There are no "saints" in this universe. Very few have
avoided or been exempted from warfare between IS-BEs.
IS-BEs on Earth are still the victims of this activity at this very
moment. The between-lives amnesia administered to IS-BEs is one on
the mechanisms of an elaborate system of "Old Empire" IS-BE traps,
that prevent an IS-BE from escaping.
This operation is managed by an illicit, renegade secret police
118 (Footnote) force of the "Old Empire", using false provocation
operations to disguise their activities 119 (Footnote) in order to
prevent detection by their own government, The Domain and by the
victims of their activities. They are mind-control methods developed
by government psychiatrists. 120 (Footnote)
Earth is a "ghetto" 121
(Footnote) planet. It is the result
of an intergalactic "Holocaust". 122 (Footnote)
IS-BEs have been
sentenced to Earth either because:
-
They are too viciously insane or perverse to function as part of
any civilization, no matter how degraded or corrupt.
-
Or, they are a revolutionary threat to the social, economic and
political caste system that has been so carefully built and brutally
enforced in the "Old Empire". Biological bodies are specifically
designed and designated as the lowest order of entity in the "Old
Empire" caste system. When an IS-BE is sent to Earth, and then
tricked or coerced into operating in a biological body, they are
actually in a prison, inside a prison.
-
In an effort to permanently and irreversibly rid the "Old Empire"
of such "untouchables", the eternal
identity, memory, and abilities of every IS-BE is forcefully erased.
This "final solution" 123 (Footnote) was
conceived and carried out by the psychopathic criminals who are
controlled by the "Old Empire".
The mass extermination of "untouchables" and prison camps created by
Germany during World War II were recently revealed. Likewise, the
IS-BEs of Earth are the victims of spiritual eradication and eternal
slavery inside frail, biological bodies, inspired by the same kind
of craven hatred in the "Old Empire".
The kind and creative inmates of Earth are continuously tortured by
butchers and lunatics who are controlled by the "Old Empire" prison
operators. The so-called "civilizations" of Earth, from the age of
useless pyramids to the age of nuclear holocaust, have been a
colossal waste of natural resources, a perverted use of
intelligence, and an overt oppression of the spiritual essence of
every single IS-BE on the planet.
If The Domain sent ships to every corner of the universe in search
of "Hell", their quest could end on Earth. What greater brutality
can be inflicted on anyone than to erase the spiritual awareness,
identity, ability, and memory that is the essence of oneself?
The Domain has, as yet, been unable to rescue the 3,000 IS-BEs of
the Expeditionary Force Battalion either. They are forced to inhabit
biological bodies on Earth. We have been able to recognize and track
most of them for the past 8,000 years. However, our attempts to
communicate with them are usually futile, as they are unable to
remember their true identity.
The majority of lost members of The Domain force have followed the
general progression of Western civilization from India, into the
Middle East, then to Chaldea, and Babylon, into Egypt, through
Achaia, Greece, Rome, into Europe, to the Western Hemisphere, and
then all around the world.
The members of the lost Battalion and many other IS-BEs on Earth,
could be valuable citizens of The Domain, not including those who
are vicious criminals or perverts. Unfortunately, there has been no
workable method conceived to emancipate the IS-BEs from Earth.
Therefore, as a matter of common logic, as well as the official
policy of The Domain, it is safer and more sensible to avoid contact
with the IS-BE population of Earth until such time as the proper
resources can be allocated to locate and destroy the "Old Empire"
force screen and amnesia machinery and develop a therapy to restore
the memory of an IS-BE."
81 "... the remote mind-control
operation..."
"One of the earliest examples of remote control was developed in
1893 by
Nikola Tesla, and described in his patent,
U.S. Patent
613,809, named "Method of an Apparatus for Controlling
Mechanism of Moving Vehicle or Vehicles".
"In 1903, Leonardo Torres Quevedo presented the Telekino at the
Paris Academy of Science, accompanied by a brief, and making an
experimental demonstration. In the same year, he obtained a
patent in France, Spain, Great Britain, and the United States.
The Telekino consisted of a robot that executed commands
transmitted by electromagnetic waves. It constituted the world's
first apparatus for radio control and was a pioneer in the field
of remote control. In 1906, in the presence of the king and
before a great crowd, Torres successfully demonstrated the
invention in the port of Bilbao, guiding a boat from the shore.
Later, he would try to apply the Telekino to projectiles and
torpedoes, but had to abandon the project for lack of financing.
The first remote-controlled model airplane flew in 1932, and the
use of remote control technology for military purposes was
worked intensively during the Second World War, one result of
this being the German Wasserfall missile."
Remote control technology is also used in space travel, for
instance the Russian Lunokhod vehicles were remote-controlled
from the ground. Direct remote control of space vehicles at
greater distances from the earth is not practical due to
increasing signal delay times."

82 "... mind control... "
Editor's Note: The most famously publicized evidence of the use
of mind-control operations is the CIA project, "MK-ULTRA":
"Project MK-ULTRA, or MKULTRA, was the code name for a covert
CIA mind-control and chemical interrogation research program,
run by the Office of Scientific Intelligence, that began in the
early 1950s and continued at least through the late 1960s. There
is much published evidence that the project involved the
surreptitious use of many types of drugs, as well as other
methodology, to manipulate individual mental states and to alter
brain function.
Project MK-ULTRA was first brought to wide public attention in
1975 by the U.S. Congress, through investigations by the Church
Committee, and by a presidential commission known as the
Rockefeller Commission. Investigative efforts were hampered by
the fact that CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all MK-ULTRA
files destroyed in 1973.
Although the CIA insists that MK-ULTRA-type experiments have
been abandoned, 14-year CIA veteran Victor Marchetti has stated
in various interviews that the CIA routinely conducts
disinformation campaigns and that CIA mind control research
continued. In a 1977 interview, Marchetti specifically called
the CIA claim that MK-ULTRA was abandoned a 'cover story.'.
On the Senate floor in 1977, Senator Ted Kennedy said:
The Deputy Director of the CIA revealed that over thirty
universities and institutions were involved in an 'extensive
testing and experimentation' program which included covert drug
tests on unwitting citizens 'at all social levels, high and low,
native Americans and foreign.' Several of these tests involved
the administration of LSD to 'unwitting subjects in social
situations.' At least one death, that of Dr. [Frank] Olson,
resulted from these activities. The Agency itself acknowledged
that these tests made little scientific sense. The agents doing
the monitoring were not qualified scientific observers.
A precursor of the MK-ULTRA program began in 1945 when the Joint
Intelligence Objectives Agency was established and given direct
responsibility for Operation Paperclip. Operation Paperclip was
a program to recruit former Nazi spies, scientists and experts
in torture and brain washing, some of whom had just been
identified and prosecuted as war criminals during the Nuremberg
Trials.
Several secret U.S. government projects grew out of Operation
Paperclip. These projects included Project CHATTER (established
1947), and Project BLUEBIRD (established 1950), which was later
renamed to Project ARTICHOKE in 1951. Their purpose was to study
mind-control, interrogation, behavior modification and related
topics.
Headed by Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, the MK-ULTRA project was started
on the order of CIA director Allen Dulles on April 13, 1953,
largely in response to Soviet, Chinese, and North Korean use of
mind-control techniques on U.S. prisoners of war in Korea. The
CIA wanted to use similar methods on their own captives. The CIA
was also interested in being able to manipulate foreign leaders
with such techniques, and would later invent several schemes to
drug Fidel Castro.
Experiments were often conducted without the subjects' knowledge
or consent. In some cases, academic researchers being funded
through grants from CIA front organizations were unaware that
their work was being used for these purposes.
In 1964, the project was renamed MK-SEARCH. The project
attempted to produce a perfect truth drug for use in
interrogating suspected Soviet spies during the Cold War, and
generally to explore any other possibilities of mind control.
An MK-ULTRA program tagged "Operation Teapot" involved the
testing of pregnant women with radiation, among other things.
Also under this program, U.S. army soldiers were dosed with LSD
to study the effects of panic.
Another MK-ULTRA effort, Subproject 54, was the Navy's top
secret "Perfect Concussion" program, which used sub aural
frequency blasts to erase memory. During this program LSD's
corollary effect on controlled and channeled mass panic was
discovered.
MK-ULTRA head Sidney Gottlieb was involved with both Operation
Teapot and Subproject 54. The U.S. government officially denied
involvement until 1995 when an official apology was issued to
the pregnant women and to the affected U.S. army soldiers.
However no apologies were offered to the affected U.S. Navy
soldiers or to a group of Oregon prison inmates, whose testicles
were irradiated without their knowledge. Compensation for
medical treatment resulting from these experiments has been
disputed and remains tied up in arbitration more than 40 years
after the fact. Since 1995, most of the associated files have
been reclassified as Top Secret.
Because most MK-ULTRA records were deliberately destroyed in
1973 by order of then CIA Director Richard Helms, it has been
difficult, if not impossible, for investigators to gain a
complete understanding of the more than 150 individually funded
research sub-projects sponsored by MK Ultra and related CIA
programs.
Aims
The Agency poured millions of dollars into studies probing
dozens of methods of influencing and controlling the mind. One
1955 MK-ULTRA document gives an indication of the size and range
of the effort; this document refers to the study of an
assortment of mind-altering substances described as follows:
1. Substances which will promote
illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the
recipient would be discredited in public.
2. Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation and
perception.
3. Materials which will prevent or counteract the
intoxicating effect of alcohol.
4. Materials which will promote the intoxicating effect of
alcohol.
5. Materials which will produce the signs and symptoms of
recognized diseases in a reversible way so that they may be
used for malingering, etc.
6. Materials which will render the induction of hypnosis
easier or otherwise enhance its usefulness.
7. Substances which will enhance the ability of individuals
to withstand privation, torture and coercion during
interrogation and so-called "brain-washing".
8. Materials and physical methods which will produce amnesia
for events preceding and during their use.
9. Physical methods of producing shock and confusion over
extended periods of time and capable of surreptitious use.
10. Substances which produce physical disablement such as
paralysis of the legs, acute anemia, etc.
11. Substances which will produce "pure" euphoria with no
subsequent let-down.
12. Substances which alter personality structure in such a
way that the tendency of the recipient to become dependent
upon another person is enhanced.
13. A material which will cause mental confusion of such a
type that the individual under its influence will find it
difficult to maintain a fabrication under questioning.
14. Substances which will lower the ambition and general
working efficiency of men when administered in undetectable
amounts.
15. Substances which promote weakness or distortion of the
eyesight or hearing faculties, preferably without permanent
effects.
16. A knockout pill which can surreptitiously be
administered in drinks, food, cigarettes, as an aerosol,
etc., which will be safe to use, provide a maximum of
amnesia, and be suitable for use by agent types on an ad hoc
basis.
17. A material which can be surreptitiously administered by
the above routes and which in very small amounts will make
it impossible for a man to perform any physical activity
whatsoever.
Historians have learned that
creating a "Manchurian Candidate" subject through "mind control"
techniques was undoubtedly a goal of MK-ULTRA and related CIA
projects.
Budget
A secretive arrangement granted a percentage of the CIA budget.
The MK-ULTRA director was granted six percent of the CIA
operating budget in 1953, without oversight or accounting.
Experiments
CIA documents suggest that "chemical, biological and
radiological" means were investigated for the purpose of mind
control as part of MK-ULTRA.
Drugs - LSD
Early efforts focused on LSD, which later came to dominate
many of MK-ULTRA's programs.
Experiments included administering LSD to CIA employees,
military personnel, doctors, other government agents,
prostitutes, mentally ill patients, and members of the general
public in order to study their reactions. LSD and other drugs
were usually administered without the subject's knowledge and
informed consent, a violation of the Nuremberg Code that the
U.S. agreed to follow after WWII.
Efforts to "recruit" subjects were often illegal, even
discounting the fact that drugs were being administered (though
actual use of LSD, for example, was legal in the United States
until October 6, 1966). In Operation Midnight Climax, the CIA
set up several brothels to obtain a selection of men who would
be too embarrassed to talk about the events. The men were dosed
with LSD, and the brothels were equipped with one-way mirrors
and the "sessions" were filmed for later viewing and study.
Some subjects' participation was consensual, and in many of
these cases, the subjects appeared to be singled out for even
more extreme experiments. In one case, volunteers were given LSD
for 77 consecutive days.
LSD was eventually dismissed by MK-ULTRA's researchers as too
unpredictable in its effects. Although useful information was
sometimes obtained through questioning subjects on LSD, not
uncommonly the most marked effect would be the subject's
absolute and utter certainty that they were able to withstand
any form of interrogation attempt, even physical torture.
Other drugs
Another technique investigated was connecting a barbiturate
IV into one arm and an amphetamine IV into the other. The
barbiturates were released into the subject first, and as soon
as the subject began to fall asleep, the amphetamines were
released. The subject would begin babbling incoherently at this
point, and it was sometimes possible to ask questions and get
useful answers.
Other experiments involved heroin, morphine, temazepam (used
under code name MK-SEARCH), mescaline, psilocybin, scopolamine,
marijuana, alcohol, and sodium pentothal.
Hypnosis
Declassified MK-ULTRA documents indicate hypnosis was studied in
the early 1950s. Experimental goals included: the creation of
"hypnotically induced anxieties," "hypnotically increasing
ability to learn and recall complex written matter," studying
hypnosis and polygraph examinations, "hypnotically increasing
ability to observe and recall complex arrangements of physical
objects," and studying "relationship of personality to
susceptibility to hypnosis."
Canadian experiments
The experiments were exported to Canada when the CIA recruited
Scottish psychiatrist Donald Ewen Cameron, creator of the
"psychic driving" concept, which the CIA found particularly
interesting. Cameron had been hoping to correct schizophrenia by
erasing existing memories and completely rebuilding the psyche.
He commuted from Albany, New York to Montreal every week to work
at the Allan Memorial Institute of McGill University and was
paid $69,000 from 1957 to 1964 to carry out MKULTRA experiments
there.
In addition to LSD, Cameron also experimented with various
paralytic drugs as well as electroconvulsive therapy at thirty
to forty times the normal power. His "driving" experiments
consisted of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for weeks
at a time (up to three months in one case) while playing tape
loops of noise or simple repetitive statements. His experiments
were typically carried out on patients who had entered the
institute for minor problems such as anxiety disorders and
postpartum depression, many of whom suffered permanently from
his actions.
His treatments resulted in victims'
incontinence, amnesia, forgetting how to talk, forgetting their
parents, and thinking their interrogators were their parents.
His work was inspired and paralleled by the British psychiatrist
Dr William Sargant at St Thomas' Hospital, London, and Belmont
Hospital, Surrey, who also experimented extensively and very
damagingly on his patients without their consent and was equally
involved with the Intelligence Services.
It was during this era that Cameron became known worldwide as
the first chairman of the World Psychiatric Association as well
as president of the American and Canadian psychiatric
associations. Cameron had also been a member of the Nuremberg
medical tribunal only a decade earlier.
Revelation
In 1973, CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all MK-ULTRA files
destroyed. Pursuant to this order, most CIA documents regarding
the project were destroyed, making a full investigation of
MK-ULTRA all but impossible.
In December 1974, The New York Times reported that the CIA had
conducted illegal domestic activities, including experiments on
U.S. citizens, during the 1960s. That report prompted
investigations by the U.S. Congress, in the form of the Church
Committee, and by a presidential commission known as the
Rockefeller Commission that looked into domestic activities of
the CIA, the FBI, and intelligence-related agencies of the
military.
In the summer of 1975, congressional Church Committee reports
and the presidential Rockefeller Commission report revealed to
the public for the first time that the CIA and the Department of
Defense had conducted experiments on both unwitting and
cognizant human subjects as part of an extensive program to
influence and control human behavior through the use of
psychoactive drugs such as LSD and mescaline and other chemical,
biological, and psychological means. They also revealed that at
least one subject had died after administration of LSD.
The congressional committee investigating the CIA research,
chaired by Senator Frank Church, concluded that "[p]rior consent
was obviously not obtained from any of the subjects". The
committee noted that the "experiments sponsored by these
researchers... call into question the decision by the agencies
not to fix guidelines for experiments."
In Canada, the issue took much longer to surface, becoming
widely known in 1984 on a CBC news show, The Fifth Estate. It
was learned that not only had the CIA funded Dr. Cameron s
efforts, but perhaps even more shockingly, the Canadian
government was fully aware of this, and had later provided
another $500,000 in funding to continue the experiments. This
revelation largely derailed efforts by the victims to sue the
CIA as their U.S. counterparts had, and the Canadian government
eventually settled out of court for $100,000 to each of the 127
victims.
U.S. General Accounting Office Report
The U.S. General Accounting Office issued a report on
September 28, 1994, which stated that between 1940 and 1974, DOD
and other national security agencies studied thousands of human
subjects in tests and experiments involving hazardous
substances.
The quote from the study:
... Working with the CIA, the
Department of Defense gave hallucinogenic drugs to thousands
of 'volunteer" soldiers in the 1950's and 1960's. In
addition to LSD, the Army also tested quinuclidinyl
benzilate, a hallucinogen code-named BZ. Many of these tests
were conducted under the so-called MKUL TRA program,
established to counter perceived Soviet and Chinese advances
in brainwashing techniques. Between 1953 and 1964, the
program consisted of 149 projects involving drug testing and
other studies on unwitting human subjects...
Extent of participation
44 American colleges or universities, 15 research
foundations or chemical or pharmaceutical companies and the
like, 12 hospitals or clinics (in addition to those associated
with universities), and 3 prisons are known to have participated
in MKULTRA.
Famous subjects
Considerable evidence supports the contention that Unabomber
Theodore Kaczynski participated in CIA-sponsored MK-ULTRA
experiments conducted at Harvard University by Henry A. Murray,
a professor in Social Relations, from the fall of 1959 through
the spring of 1962. Kaczynski was a precocious, though
impressionable, sixteen-year-old when he began his
participation; his assigned code name was "Lawful."
He emerged,
years later, as a terrorist and has been sentenced to life in
prison without the possibility of parole.
"Merry Prankster" Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the
Cuckoo's Nest, volunteered for MK-ULTRA experiments while a
student at Stanford University. Kesey's ingestion of LSD during
these experiments led directly to his widespread promotion of
the drug and the subsequent development of hippie culture."

83 ..."Dark Ages"...
"It is generally accepted that the concept (Dark Ages was
created by Petrarch in the 1330s. Writing of those who had come
before him, he said,
"Amidst the errors there shone forth men of
genius, no less keen were their eyes, although they were
surrounded by darkness and dense gloom."
Christian writers had
traditional metaphors of "light versus darkness" to describe
"good versus evil".
Petrarch was the first to co-opt the
metaphor and give it secular meaning by reversing its
application. Classical Antiquity, so long considered the "dark"
age for its lack of Christianity, was now seen by Petrarch as
the age of "light" because of its cultural achievements, while
Petrarch's time, lacking such cultural achievements, was seen as
the age of darkness.
As an Italian, Petrarch saw the Roman Empire and the classical
period as expressions of Italian greatness. He spent much of his
time traveling through Europe rediscovering and republishing the
classic Latin and Greek texts. He wanted to restore the
classical Latin language to its former purity. Humanists saw the
preceding 900-year period as a time of stagnation. They saw
history unfolding, not along the religious outline of St.
Augustine's Six Ages of the World, but in cultural (or secular)
terms through the progressive developments of classical ideals,
literature, and art.
Petrarch wrote that history had had two periods: the classic
period of the Greeks and Romans, followed by a time of darkness,
in which he saw himself as still living.
Humanists believed one day the Roman
Empire would rise again and restore classic cultural purity, and
so by the late 14th and early 15th century, humanists such as
Leonardo Bruni believed they had attained this new age, and that
a third, Modern Age had begun. The age before their own, which
Petrarch had labeled dark, thus became a "middle" age between
the classic and the modern."

84 "... the basic laws of
physics..."
"The early modern period is seen as a flowering of the
Renaissance, in what is often known as the "Scientific
Revolution", viewed as a foundation of modern science.
Historians like Howard Margolis hold that the Scientific
Revolution began in 1543, when Nicolaus Copernicus received the
first copy of his De Revolutionibus, printed in Nuremberg
(Nurnberg) by Johannes Petreius. Most of its contents had been
written years prior, but the publication had been delayed.
Copernicus died soon after receiving
the copy. Further significant advances were made over the
following century by Galileo Galilei, Christiaan Huygens,
Johannes Kepler, and Blaise Pascal. During the early seventeenth
century, Galileo made extensive use of experimentation to
validate physical theories, which is the key idea in the modern
scientific method. Galileo formulated and successfully tested
several results in dynamics, in particular the Law of Inertia.
In Galileo's Two New Sciences, a dialogue between the characters
Simplicio and Salviati discuss the motion of a ship (as a moving
frame) and how that ship's cargo is indifferent to its motion.
Huygens used the motion of a boat along a Dutch canal to
illustrate an early form of the conservation of momentum.
The scientific revolution is considered to have culminated with
the publication of the Philosophiae Naturalis Principia
Mathematica in 1687 by the mathematician, physicist, alchemist
and inventor Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727). In 1687, Newton
published the Principia, detailing two comprehensive and
successful physical theories: Newton's laws of motion, from
which arise classical mechanics; and Newton's Law of
Gravitation, which describes the fundamental force of gravity.
Both theories agreed well with experiment. The Principia also
included several theories in fluid dynamics.
After Newton defined classical mechanics, the next great field
of inquiry within physics was the nature of electricity."

85 "...electricity... "
"Electricity would remain little more than an intellectual
curiosity for over two millennia until 1600, when the English
physician William Gilbert made a careful study of electricity
and magnetism, distinguishing the lodestone effect from static
electricity produced by rubbing amber. He coined the New Latin
word electricus ("of amber" or "like amber", from
ηλεκτρον [elektron],
the Greek word for "amber") to refer to the property of
attracting small objects after being rubbed. This association
gave rise to the English words "electric" and "electricity",
which made their first appearance in print in Thomas Browne's
Pseudodoxia Epidemica of 1646.
Further work was conducted by Otto von Guericke, Robert Boyle,
Stephen Gray and C. F. du Fay. In the 18th century, Benjamin
Franklin conducted extensive research in electricity, selling
his possessions to fund his work. In June 1752 he is reputed to
have attached a metal key to the bottom of a dampened kite
string and flown the kite in a storm-threatened sky. He observed
a succession of sparks jumping from the key to the back of his
hand, showing that lightning was indeed electrical in nature.
In 1791 Luigi Galvani published his discovery of bioelectricity,
demonstrating that electricity was the medium by which nerve
cells passed signals to the muscles. Alessandro Volta's battery,
or voltaic pile, of 1800, made from alternating layers of zinc
and copper, provided scientists with a more reliable source of
electrical energy than the electrostatic machines previously
used. Andre-Marie Ampere discovered the relationship between
electricity and magnetism in 1820; Michael Faraday invented the
electric motor in 1821, and Georg Ohm mathematically analyzed
the electrical circuit in 1827.
While it had been the early nineteenth century that had seen
rapid progress in electrical science, the late nineteenth
century would see the greatest progress in electrical
engineering. Through such people as Nikola Tesla, Thomas Edison,
George Westinghouse, Ernst Werner von Siemens, Alexander Graham
Bell and Lord Kelvin, electricity was turned from a scientific
curiosity into an essential tool for modern life, becoming a
driving force for the Second Industrial Revolution."

86 "... Sir Isaac Newton..."
"Sir Isaac Newton (4 January 1643 - 31 March 1727) was an
English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, theologian,
natural philosopher, and alchemist. His treatise Philosophise
Naturalis Principia Mathematica was published in 1687, and said
to be the greatest single work in the history of science,
described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion,
laying the groundwork for classical mechanics, which dominated
the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three
centuries and is the basis for modern engineering.
He showed that the motions of
objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the
same set of natural laws by demonstrating the consistency
between Kepler's laws of planetary motion and his theory of
gravitation, thus removing the last doubts about heliocentrism
and advancing the scientific revolution.
In mechanics, Newton enunciated the principles of conservation
of momentum and angular momentum. In optics, he invented the
reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on
the observation that a prism decomposes white light into a
visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling
and studied the speed of sound.
In mathematics, Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz
for the development of the calculus. He also demonstrated the
generalized binomial theorem, developed the so-called "Newton's
method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, and
contributed to the study of power series.
In a 2005 poll of the Royal Society of who had the greatest
effect on the history of science, Newton was deemed much more
influential than Albert Einstein."

87 "...between lifetimes."
"Dr.
Carl Sagan was a noted scientist, teacher and skeptic.
Sagan was a founding member of a group that set out to debunk
unscientific claims, and wrote the book
The Demon-Haunted World
in which he said that there were several areas in parapsychology
which deserved serious study:
"At the time of writing there are
three claims in the ESP field which, in my opinion, deserve
serious study:
(1) that by thought alone humans
can (barely) affect random number generators in computers
(2) that people under mild
sensory deprivation can receive thoughts or images
"projected" at them
(3) that young children
sometimes report the details of a previous life, which upon
checking turn out to be accurate and which they could not
have known about in any way other than reincarnation. I pick
these claims not because I think they're likely to be valid
(I don't), but as examples of contentions that might be
true."
"University of Virginia
psychiatrists Dr. Jim Tucker and Professor Ian Stevenson have
published books and peer-reviewed research papers about their
work in examining cases of early childhood past life memories
and birthmarks. The most detailed collections of personal
reports in favor of reincarnation have been published by
Professor Ian Stevenson, in books such as Twenty Cases
Suggestive of Reincarnation.
Stevenson has spent over 40 years devoted to the study of
children who have spoken about past lives. In each case,
Stevenson methodically documents the child's statements. Then,
he identifies the deceased person the child allegedly identifies
with, and verifies the facts of the deceased person's life that
match the child's memory. Stevenson believes that his meticulous
methods rule out all possible "normal" explanations for the
child's memories. However, it should be noted that a significant
proportion of the University of Virginia's reported cases of
reincarnation originate in Eastern societies, where dominant
religions often permit the concept of reincarnation.
In India —
where this phenomenon is quite common — if a child from a poor
family claims to be the reincarnated person from a rich family,
this can lead to the child to be adopted by that family, a
motive that has led to children making fraudulent reincarnation
claims.
Stevenson has said about the 2500 cases of children who appeared
to remember past lives, which he and his associates
investigated:
"My conclusion so far is that
reincarnation is not the only explanation for these cases,
but that it is the best explanation we have for the stronger
cases, by which I mean those in which a child makes a
considerable number (say 20 or 30) of correct statements
about another person who lives in a family that lives quite
remote from his own and with which his family has had no
prior contacts. When we talk about remoteness, we don't
necessarily just mean physical distance. We know that two
families can live only 10 kilometers apart and yet they can
be very remote because they belong to different economic and
social classes."
Professor Stevenson has also matched
birthmarks and birth defects to wounds and scars on the
deceased, verified by medical records such as autopsy
photographs.
Stevenson's research into birthmarks and congenital defects has
particular importance for the demonstration of reincarnation,
since it furnishes objective and graphic evidence of
reincarnation, superior to the (often fragmentary) memories and
reports of the children and adults questioned, which even if
verified afterwards probably cannot be assigned the same."

88 "... lost civilizations of
Atlantis..."
The following website has most of the popular information about
Atlantis:
http://www.lost-civilizations.net/atlantis.html
89 "... and
Lemuria..."
"The rise and fall of the Lemurian civilization cannot be
accurately documented, though many have gone in quest of this
mythological continent. Lost civilizations have been known to
rise and fall - or just appear and disappear without
explanation. As with Atlantis one can only speculate as to what
happened, based on archaeological evidence, legends, theories
pieced together by researchers, and for some, metaphysical
channelings.
The exact location of Lemuria varies
with different researchers and authors, though it is part of the
mysteries of the Pacific region flowing into the American
continent, just as Atlantis is linked to the Atlantic land areas
that stretch to the Mediterranean Sea. Wherever you believe the
location of Lemuria to be, it is linked with the Ring of Fire.
This area has become active with a Tsunami in December 26, 2004,
powerful earthquakes and volcanoes that continue, after being
dormant for many years. It would seem that the legends of
ancient Lemuria speak to us once again with warning signs - as
they supposedly did to the Lemurians -before the continent - or
group of islands - fell into the sea.
The fate of Lemuria, also known as Pacifica, Mu, and what Cayce
called Zu or Oz, is not unlike that proposed for Atlantis. It is
much like the destiny of humanity foreseen in our timeline by
prophets of old and modern-day clairvoyants. The legends are all
the same... a thriving, advanced culture that suddenly
manifested out of nowhere. Their origins and downfall are linked
to destruction when their continent sank beneath the 'sea' due
to natural cataclysms and human imbalance."

90 "...polar shift"...
"In 1852, mathematician Joseph Adhemar suggested that the
accumulation of thick ice at the poles periodically caused the
earth to flip and the equator to move to where the poles were.
An early mention of a shifting of the Earth's axis can be found
in an 1872 article entitled "Chronologie historique des
Mexicains" which interpreted ancient Mexican myths as evidence
for four periods of global cataclysms that had begun around
10,500 B.C.
The novel Geyserland: Empiricisms in Social Reform. Being Data
and Observations Recorded by the Late Mark Stubble, M.D., Ph.D.
(1908) by Richard Hatfield used the device of a fictional study
to locate a blissful nation of pure Communism at the North Pole
on the island of Atlantis. This fictional Utopia was destroyed
by a pole shift set in 9262 B. C.
Hugh Auchincloss Brown, an electrical engineer, advanced a
theory of catastrophic pole shift influenced by Adhemar's
earlier model. Brown also argued that accumulation of ice at the
poles caused recurring tipping of the axis. identifying cycles
of approximately 7 millennia.
Charles Hapgood is now perhaps the best remembered early
proponent, from in his books The Earth's Shifting Crust (1958)
(which includes a foreword by Albert Einstein) and Path of the
Pole (1970). Hapgood, building on Adhemar's much earlier model,
speculated that the ice mass at one or both poles
over-accumulates and destabilizes the earth's rotational
balance, causing slippage of all or much of earth's outer crust
around the earth's core, which retains its axial orientation.
Based on his own research, he argued
that each shift took approximately five thousand years, followed
by 20 to 30 thousand year periods with no polar movements. Also,
in his calculations, the area of movement never covered more
than 40 degrees. His examples of recent locations for the North
Pole include the Yukon Territory, Hudson Bay, and in the
Atlantic Ocean between Iceland and Norway.
This is an example of slow pole shift motion, which displays the
most minor alterations and no destruction. A more dramatic view
assumes more rapid changes, with dramatic alterations of
geography and localized areas of destruction due to earthquakes
and tsunamis. Several recent books propose changes that take
place in weeks, days, or even hours, resulting in a variety of
doomsday scenarios.
Regardless of speed, the results of a shift occurring results in
major climate changes for most of the earth's surface, as areas
that were formerly equatorial become temperate, and areas that
were temperate become either more equatorial or more arctic.
Hapgood wrote to Canadian librarian, Rand Flem-Ath, encouraging
him in his pursuit of scientific evidence to back Hapgood's
claim and in his expansion of the theory. Flem-Ath published the
results of this work in 1995 in When the Sky Fell co-written
with his wife, Rose.
Other theories which are not dependent upon polar ice masses
include those involving:
-
a high-velocity asteroid or
comet which hits Earth at such an angle that the lithosphere
moves independent of the mantle
-
a high-velocity asteroid or
comet which hits Earth at such an angle that the entire
planet shifts axis.
-
an unusually magnetic celestial
object which passes close enough to Earth to temporarily
reorient the magnetic field, which then “drags” the
lithosphere about a new axis of rotation. Eventually, the
sun's magnetic field again determines the Earth's, after the
intruding celestial object “returns” to a location from
which it cannot influence Earth.
-
perturbations of the topography
of the core-mantle boundary, perhaps induced by differential
core rotation and shift of its axial rotation vector,
leading to CMB mass redistributions. See, e.g., Bowin.
-
mass redistributions in the
mantle from mantle avalanches or other deformations. See,
e.g., Ladbury, and Steinberger and O'Connell."

91 "... Totalitarian..."
"Totalitarianism is a concept used
in political science that describes a state that regulates
nearly every aspect of public and private behavior. Totalitarian
regimes or movements maintain themselves in political power by
means of secret police, propaganda disseminated through the
state-controlled mass media, personality cults, regulation and
restriction of free discussion and criticism, single-party
states, the use of mass surveillance, and widespread use of
terror tactics.
Many consider the first totalitarian
regimes to have begun in the 20th century, which include the
communist regimes of the Soviet Union and Cuba, as well as
totalitarianism of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Spain under
Franco, Portugal under Salazar, as well as others. However some
argue that totalitarianism has existed centuries prior, such as
in ancient China under the political leadership of Prime
Minister Li Si who helped the Qin dynasty unify China. Li Si
adopted the political philosophy of Legalism as the ruling
philosophical thought of China and restricted political
activities and destroyed all literature and killed scholars who
did not support Legalism.
Totalitarianism was also used by the
Spartan state in Ancient Greece. Its “educational system” was
part of the totalitarian military society. The oligarchy running
the state machine dictated every aspect of life, including the
rearing of children."

92 "...planetary governments,
regulated by a brutal social, economic, and political
hierarchy..."
"A hierarchy (in Greek: hieros,
'sacred', and arkho, 'rule') is a system of ranking and
organizing things or people, where each element of the system
(except for the top element) is a subordinate to a single other
element. A hierarchy can link entities either directly or
indirectly, and either vertically or horizontally.
The only direct links in a
hierarchy, insofar as they are hierarchical, are to one's
immediate superior or to one of one's subordinates, although a
system that is largely hierarchical can also incorporate other
organizational patterns. Indirect hierarchical links can extend
'vertically" upwards or downwards via multiple links in the same
direction. All parts of the hierarchy which are not vertically
linked to one another can nevertheless be "horizontally" linked
by traveling up the hierarchy to find a common direct or
indirect superior, and then down again. This is akin to two
co-workers, neither of whom is the other's boss, but both of
whose chains of command will eventually meet."
Many human organizations, such as governments, educational
institutions, businesses, churches, armies and political
movements are hierarchical organizations, at least officially;
commonly seniors, called "bosses", have more power than their
subordinates. Thus the relationship defining this hierarchy is
"commands" or "has power over". Some analysts question whether
power "actually" works in the way the traditional organizational
chart indicates, however. This view tends to emphasize the
significance of the informal organization."

93 "...royal monarch as its
figurehead."
"In politics, a figurehead, by metaphor with the carved
figurehead at the prow of a sailing ship, is a person who holds
an important title or office yet executes little actual power.
Common figureheads include constitutional monarchs, such as the
Emperor of Japan, or presidents in parliamentary democracies,
such as the President of Israel.
While the authority of a figurehead is generally symbolic,
respect and access to high levels of government can give them
significant influence on some events. An example would be
Emperor Hirohito's involvement in World War II. In parliamentary
systems, presidents are figureheads at times of peace (delegated
such powers as convening or dismissing the national
legislature), but at wartime they are often commanders in chief.
Sometimes a figurehead can be exploited in times of emergency.
For example, Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi used the
figurehead President of India to issue unilateral decrees that
allowed her to bypass parliament when it no longer supported
her.
The word can also have more sinister overtones, and refer to a
powerless leader who should be exercising full authority, yet is
actually being controlled by a more powerful figure behind the
throne.
The tendency of this word to drift, like many words that are in
a strong process of changed meanings, into the pejorative is
beginning to make it unsuitable to apply to a head of state with
limited constitutional authority, such that its use may become
increasingly inappropriate in referring to monarchs and
presidents in parliamentary systems."

94 "... united by a egalitarian
esprit de corps... "
"Esprit de corps, when discussing the morale of a group, is an
intangible term used for the capacity of people to maintain
belief in an institution or a goal, or even in oneself and
others. According to Alexander H. Leighton, "morale is the
capacity of a group of people to pull together persistently and
consistently in pursuit of a common purpose".
Egalitarian, (derived from the French word egal, meaning equal)
is a political doctrine that holds that all people should be
treated as equals from birth. Generally it applies to being held
equal under the law, the church, and society at large. In actual
practice, one may be considered an egalitarian in most areas
listed above, even if not subscribing to equality in every
possible area of individual difference. For example, one might
support equal rights in race matters but not in gender issues,
or vice versa."

95 "... Many of the IS-BEs on Earth
are here because they are violently opposed to totalitarian
governments..."
-- Editor's Note: Coincidentally, or perhaps NOT coincidentally,
almost one year after this interview, the novel "1984" by George
Orwell, which was published in June of 1948. The state of the U.S. government has
grown to mirror many of the features described by Orwell in the
book, "Nineteen Eighty-Four".
It is easy to speculate that
Orwell may have been "influenced" by an IS-BE of The Domain
while writing this book. Or, at the very least, he was one of
the IS-BEs sentenced to Earth because he is one of "...the IS-BEs
on Earth are here because they are violently opposed to
totalitarian governments...".
The following description of the basis for Orwell's "1984" are
taken verbatim from Wikipedia.org. It is a very close
description of the "Old Empire" government:
"Much of Oceanic society is
based upon Stalin's Soviet Union. The "Two Minutes' Hate"
was the ritual demonization of State enemies and rivals; Big
Brother resembles Joseph Stalin; the Party's archenemy,
Emmanuel Goldstein, resembles Leon Trotsky (both are Jewish,
both have the same physiognomy, and Trotsky's real surname
was Bronstein).
Another suggested inspiration for Goldstein
is Emma Goldman, the famous Anarchist figure. Doctored
photography is a propaganda technique and the creation of unpersons in the story, analogous to Stalin's enemies being
made nonpersons and being erased from official photographic
records; the police treatment of several characters recalls
the Moscow Trials of the Great Purge."
There a very many interesting
parallels between the concepts discussed by Orwell in "1984",
and the description of the "Old Empire" government and the Earth
prison planet activities in the transcripts of the "Alien
Interviews" with Airl.
For example, a few of these are parallels cited in the following
excerpt from the internet encyclopedia, Wikipedia.org:
"The Thought Police capture
Winston and Julia in their sanctuary bedroom and they are
separately interrogated at the Ministry of Love, where the
regime's opponents are tortured and killed, but sometimes
released (to be executed at a later date); Charrington, the
shop keeper who rented them the room reveals himself an
officer of the Thought Police. In the Ministry of Love
torture chamber, O'Brien tells Smith that he will be cured
of his hatred for the Party.
During a session, he explains to
Winston that torture's purpose is to alter his way of
thinking, not to extract a fake confession, adding that once
cured — accepting reality as the Party describes — he then
will be executed; electroshock torture will achieve that,
continuing until O'Brien decides Winston is cured."
For complete comparative analysis,
read the book, "1984" or read the entire reference to the book
on the internet at Wikipedia.org, excerpted below:
"Nineteen Eighty-Four (also titled
1984), by George Orwell (the pen name of Eric Arthur Blair), is
an English dystopian novel about life in a dictatorship as lived
by Winston Smith, an intellectual worker at the Ministry of
Truth, and his degradation when he runs afoul of the
totalitarian government of Oceania, the state in which he lives
in the year 1984.
Orwell's influences
In the essay
Why I Write, Orwell explains that all the serious
work he wrote since the Spanish Civil War in 1936 was written,
directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for
democratic socialism."
Therefore, Nineteen Eighty-Four is an
anti-totalitarian cautionary tale about the betrayal of a
revolution by its defenders. He already had stated distrust of
totalitarianism and betrayed revolutions in Homage to Catalonia
and Animal Farm. Coming Up For Air, at points, celebrates the
personal and political freedoms lost in Nineteen Eighty-Four.
The novel's title, its terms and its language (Newspeak), and
its author's surname are bywords for personal privacy lost to
national state security. The adjective "Orwellian" denotes
totalitarian action and organization; the phrase: Big Brother is
Watching You connotes pervasive, invasive surveillance. The
following quotation has become famous:
War is Peace Freedom is Slavery Ignorance is Strength
Although the novel has been banned or challenged in some
countries, it, along with
Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, and
Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, is among literature's most
famous dystopias. In 2005, Time magazine listed it among the
best one hundred English-language novels published since 1923.
Nineteen Eighty-Four introduces Oceania, one of the world's
three intercontinental totalitarian super-states. The story
occurs in London, the "chief city of Airstrip One", itself a
province of Oceania that "had been called England or Britain ".
Posters of "Big Brother", the Party leader, with the caption BIG
BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, dominate the city landscapes; two-way
television (the telescreen) dominates the private and public
spaces of the populace.
Oceania's people are in three classes —
-
the Inner Party
-
the Outer Party
-
the "Proles"
This government, the Party, controls
them via the Ministry of Truth (MiniTru), where Winston Smith,
the protagonist, works; he is a member of the Outer Party. His
job in MiniTru is the continual rewriting and altering of
history so that the government is always right and correct:
destroying evidence, amending newspaper articles, deleting the
existence of people identified as "unpersons".
The story begins on April 4, 1984: "It was a bright cold day in
April, and the clocks were striking thirteen." The date is
questionable, because it is what Winston Smith perceives. In the
story's course, he concludes it as irrelevant, because the State
can arbitrarily alter it; the year 1984 and its world are
transmutable.
The novel does not render the world's full history to 1984.
Indeed, because the book Winston reads is given to him by a
Party member, it is possible that the book itself is meant to be
a deception, and the history of the world of 1984 is somewhat
different. Winston's recollections, and what he reads in The
Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism, by Emmanuel
Goldstein, reveal that after the Second World War, the United
Kingdom fell to civil war, becoming part of Oceania.
Simultaneously, the Soviet Union
encompassed mainland Europe, forming Eurasia; the third super
state, Eastasia, comprises the east Asian countries around China
and Japan. There was an atomic war, fought mainly in Europe,
western Russia, and North America. It is unclear what occurred
first: the civil war wherein the Party assumed power or the
United States' annexation of the British Empire or the war
during which Colchester was bombed.
During the Second World War, George
Orwell repeatedly said that British democracy, as it existed
before 1939, would not survive the war; the question being:
Would it end via Fascist coup d'état (from above) or via
Socialist revolution (from below)? During the war, Orwell
admitted events proved him wrong:
"What really matters is that I
fell into the trap of assuming that 'the war and the
revolution are inseparable' "

96 "... Wars are fought with
electronic cannon."...
"I have not thought it hazardous to
predict, that wars in the future will be waged by electrical
means." - Nikola Tesla, 1915 Tesla made some remarkable claims
concerning a "teleforce" weapon.
The press called it a "peace ray" or
death ray. In total, the components and methods included:
1. An apparatus for producing
manifestations of energy in free air instead of in a high
vacuum as in the past. This, according to Tesla in 1934, was
accomplished.
2. A mechanism for generating
tremendous electrical force. This, according to Tesla, was
also accomplished.
3. A means of intensifying and
amplifying the force developed by the second mechanism.
4. A new method for producing a
tremendous electrical repelling force. This would be the
projector, or gun, of the invention.
Tesla worked on plans for a
directed-energy weapon between the early 1900s till the time of
his death. In 1937, Tesla composed a treatise entitled "The Art
of Projecting Concentrated Non-dispersive Energy through the
Natural Media" concerning charged particle beams. Tesla
published the document in an attempt to expound on the technical
description of a "superweapon that would put an end to all war".
This treatise of the particle beam
is currently in the Nikola Tesla Museum archive in Belgrade. It
described an open ended vacuum tube with a gas jet seal that
allowed particles to exit, a method of charging particles to
millions of volts, and a method of creating and directing
nondispersive particle streams (through electrostatic
repulsion). Records of his indicate that it was based on a
narrow stream of atomic clusters of liquid mercury or tungsten
accelerated via high voltage (by means akin to his magnifying
transformer).
Tesla gave the following description
concerning the particle gun's operation: [The nozzle would] send
concentrated beams of particles through the free air, of such
tremendous energy that they will bring down a fleet of 10,000
enemy airplanes at a distance of 200 miles from a defending
nation's border and will cause armies to drop dead in their
tracks."

97 "... like the Axis powers..."
"The Axis powers, also interpreted as Axis alliance, Axis
nations, Axis countries or sometimes just the Axis were those
countries opposed to the Allies during World War II. The three
major Axis powers, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial
Japan were part of a military alliance on the signing of the
Tripartite Pact in September 1940, which officially founded the
Axis powers. At their zenith, the Axis powers ruled empires that
dominated large parts of Europe, Africa, East and Southeast Asia
and the Pacific Ocean, but World War II ended with their total
defeat. Like the Allies, membership of the Axis was fluid, and
some nations entered and later left the Axis during the course
of the war.
The term was first used by Benito Mussolini, in November 1936,
when he spoke of a Rome-Berlin axis arising out of the treaty of
friendship signed between Italy and Germany on October 25, 1936.
Mussolini declared that the two countries would form an "axis"
around which the other states of Europe would revolve. This
treaty was forged when Italy, originally opposed to Germany, was
faced with opposition to its war in Abyssinia from the League of
Nations and received support from Germany. Later, in May 1939,
this relationship transformed into an alliance, called by
Mussolini the "Pact of Steel"."

98 "...Vedic Hymns..."
The Vedas are very exhaustive scriptures. Each veda contains
several sections and thousands of hymns. Some of the Vedic
hymns, especially the hymns of the Rig veda, are considered to
be at least 6000-8000 years old. The Vedas are believed to be
revealed scriptures, because they are considered to be divine in
origin. Since they were not written by any human beings but were
only heard in deep meditative states, they are commonly referred
a "those that were heard".
Here is one of the most famous hymns from the Rig Vega:
"The Hymn of Creation"
"A time is envisioned when the world was not, only a watery
chaos (the dark, "indistinguishable sea") and a warm cosmic
breath, which could give an impetus of life. Notice how
thought gives rise to desire (when something is thought of
it can then be desired) and desire links non-being to being
(we desire what is not but then try to bring it about that
it is). Yet the whole process is shrouded in mystery.
Where do the gods fit in this creation scheme?
The non-existent was not; the existent was not at that time.
The atmosphere was not nor the heavens which are beyond.
What was concealed? Where? In whose protection? Was it
water? An unfathomable abyss?
There was neither death nor immortality then. There was not
distinction of day or night. That alone breathed windless by
its own power. Other than that there was not anything else.
Darkness was hidden by darkness in the beginning. All this
was an indistinguishable sea. That which becomes, that which
was enveloped by the void, that alone was born through the
power of heat.
Upon that desire arose in the beginning. This was the first
discharge of thought. Sages discovered this link of the
existent to the nonexistent, having searched in the heart
with wisdom.
Their line [of vision] was extended across; what was below,
what was above? There were impregnators, there were powers:
inherent power below, impulses above.
Who knows truly? Who here will declare whence it arose,
whence this creation? The gods are subsequent to the
creation of this. Who, then, knows whence it has come into
being?
Whence this creation has come into being; whether it was
made or not; he in the highest heaven is its surveyor.
Surely he knows, or perhaps he knows not."

99 "... the Aryan people... "
"The Vedic term arya- in its earliest attestations has a meaning
of "stranger", but "stranger" in the sense of "potential guest".
The Sanskrit lexicon defines Arya as mahakula kulinarya "being
of a noble family", sabhya "having gentle or refined behavior
and demeanor", sajjana "being well-born and respectable", and
sadhava "being virtuous, honorable, or righteous". Arya, is a
title of honor and respect given to certain people for noble
behavior.
The Aryan race was a term used in the early 20th century by
European racial theorists who believed strongly in the division
of humanity into biologically distinct races with differing
characteristics. Such writers believed that the
Proto-Indo-Europeans constituted a specific race that had
expanded across parts of Europe, Iran and small parts of
northern India. This usage tends to merge the Sanskrit meaning
of "noble" or "elevated" with the idea of distinctive behavioral
and ancestral ethnicity marked by language distribution.
Nazism portrayed their interpretation of an "Aryan race" as the
only race capable of, or with an interest in, creating and
maintaining culture and civilizations, while other races are
merely capable of conversion, or destruction of culture. These
arguments derived from late nineteenth century racial
hierarchies. Some Nazis were also influenced by Madame
Blavatsky's
The Secret Doctrine (1888) where she postulates
"Aryans" as the fifth of her "Root Races", dating them to about
a million years ago, tracing them to Atlantis.
Because of historical racist use of Aryan, and especially use of
Aryan race in connection with the propaganda of Nazism, the word
is sometimes avoided in the West as being tainted, in the same
manner as the swastika symbol. Currently, India and Iran are the
only countries to use the word Aryan in a demographic
denomination."

100 "... the Vedic Hymns..."
"The term veda means "knowledge, (sacred) lore" embraces a body
of writings the origin of which is ascribed to divine revelation
(shruti, literally "hearing"), and which forms the foundation of
the Brahmanical system of religious belief.
This sacred canon is divided into
three or (according to a later scheme) four co-ordinate
collections, likewise called Veda:
(1) the Rig-veda, or lore of
praise (or hymns)
(2) the Samaveda, or lore of
tunes (or chants)
(3) the Yajurveda, or lore of
prayer (or sacrificial formulas)
(4) the Atharvaveda, or lore of
the Atharvans.
Each of these four Vedas consists
primarily of a collection (samihita) of sacred, mostly poetical,
texts of a devotional nature, called mantra. This entire body of
texts (and particularly the first three collections) is also
frequently referred to as the trayi vidya, or threefold wisdom,
of hymns (rik), tune or chant (saman), and prayer (yajus), the
fourth Veda, if at all included, being in that case classed
together with the Rik."

101 "...Vishnu..."
"Vishnu is the
All-Pervading essence of all beings, the master of and beyond
the past, present and future, the creator and destroyer of all
existences, one who supports, sustains and governs the Universe
and originates and develops all elements within. In the Rigveda,
Vishnu is mentioned 93 times.
The traditional Sanskrit explanation
of the name Vi__u involves the root viś, meaning "to settle, to
enter", or "to pervade", and a suffix nu, translating to
approximately "the All-Pervading One". He has nine avatars, or
'incarnations' (which) are described as having occurred in the
past, with one still to happen at the end of Kali Yuga. The
Bhagavad Gita mentions their purpose as being to vanquish
negative forces."

102 "...past lives."
A "past lives"
scenario automatically infers a "future life" in the context of
an amnesia and prison planet operation. This implies the
phenomenon of reincarnation:
"Reincarnation literally "to be
made flesh again", is a doctrine or metaphysical belief that
some essential part of a living being (in some variations only
human beings) survives death to be reborn in a new body. This
essential part is often referred to as the spirit or soul, the
"higher" or "true" self, "divine spark", or "I".
According to such beliefs, a new
personality is developed during each life in the physical world,
but some part of the self remains constant throughout the
successive lives. Belief in reincarnation is an ancient
phenomenon. This doctrine is a central tenet within the majority
of Indian religious traditions, such as Hinduism (including
Yoga, Vaishnavism, and Shaivism), Jainism, and Sikhism. The idea
was also entertained by some Ancient Greek philosophers.
Many modern Pagans also believe in
reincarnation as do some New Age movements, along with followers
of Spiritism, practitioners of certain African traditions, and
students of esoteric philosophies such as Kabbalah, Sufism and
Gnostic and Esoteric Christianity. The Buddhist concept of
Rebirth although often referred to as reincarnation differs
significantly from the Hindu-based traditions and New Age
movements in that there is no "self" (or eternal soul) to
reincarnate. During recent decades, a significant minority of
people in the West have developed a belief in reincarnation.
Notable exceptions include Henry Ford and General George Patton.
Henry Ford was convinced he had lived before, most recently as a
soldier killed at the battle of Gettysburg.
A quote from the San
Francisco Examiner from August 26, 1928 described Ford's
beliefs:
"I adopted the theory of Reincarnation when I was
twenty-six. Religion offered nothing to the point. Even work
could not give me complete satisfaction. Work is futile if we
cannot utilize the experience we collect in one life in the
next. When I discovered Reincarnation it was as if I had found a
universal plan I realized that there was a chance to work out my
ideas.
Time was no longer limited. I was no
longer a slave to the hands of the clock. Genius is experience.
Some seem to think that it is a gift or talent, but it is the
fruit of long experience in many lives. Some are older souls
than others, and so they know more. The discovery of
Reincarnation put my mind at ease. If you preserve a record of
this conversation, write it so that it puts men’s minds at ease.
I would like to communicate to others the calmness that the long
view of life gives to us."
General George S. Patton was a
staunch believer in reincarnation and, along with many other
members of his family, often claimed to have seen vivid,
lifelike visions of his ancestors. In particular, Patton
believed he was a reincarnation of Carthaginian General
Hannibal. The most detailed collections of personal reports in
favor of reincarnation have been published by Professor Ian
Stevenson, from the University of Virginia, in books such as
Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation.
Stevenson spent over 40 years
devoted to the study of children who have apparently spoken
about a past life. In each case, Professor Stevenson
methodically documented the child's statements. Then he
identified the deceased person the child allegedly identified
with, and verified the facts of the deceased person's life that
matched the child's memory. He also matched birthmarks and birth
defects to wounds and scars on the deceased, verified by medical
records such as autopsy photographs.
In a fairly typical case, a boy in
Beirut spoke of being a 25-year-old mechanic, thrown to his
death from a speeding car on a beach road. According to multiple
witnesses, the boy provided the name of the driver, the exact
location of the crash, the names of the mechanic's sisters and
parents and cousins, and the people he went hunting with - all
of which turned out to match the life of a man who had died
several years before the boy was born, and who had no apparent
connection to the boy's family.
Stevenson believed that his strict
methods ruled out all possible "normal" explanations for the
child’s memories. However, it should be noted that a significant
majority of Professor Stevenson's reported cases of
reincarnation originate in Eastern societies, where dominant
religions often permit the concept of reincarnation. Following
this type of criticism, Stevenson published a book on European
cases suggestive of reincarnation."

103 "...Moses..."
"The cartouche of Akhenaten's god
and heavenly father, the Aten, bore the name Imram. In the
Bible, Moses is referred to as the son of Amram, the Hebrew
equivalent.
The name of the Egyptian deity Aten transliterates into the
Hebrew word Adon. Adon, which is translated by English Bibles as
"the Lord" (and Adonai, translated as "my Lord") is used along
with
Jehovah (Yhwh) in the Bible as the exclusive personal names
of God. Moreover, in ancient times, the name Jehovah (Yhwh) was
written, but never spoken. Whenever the written name Jehovah (Yhwh)
was to be read out loud, Adon (Aten) was voiced instead.
The
written form of Adon is infrequent, however, its limited usage
is significant, especially in the first six books of the Bible
(See under "LORD" in Strong's Exhaustive Concordance), where it
is reserved for the following applications alone: Moses
addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22;
34:9; Numbers 14:17; Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26; 10:17); Moses,
himself, is addressed both by Aaron (Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) and by
Joshua (Numbers 11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; and Joshua
also addresses God using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b;
7:7).
As mentioned above, there is an
established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian
18th Dynasty and the Bible. Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the
Hymn to the Aten which was found by archaeologists at the city
of Akhetaten."
http://www.domainofman.com/ankhemmaat/moses.html
"Recent and non-Biblical view places
Moses as a noble in the court of the Pharaoh Akhenaten. A
significant number of scholars, from Sigmund Freud to Joseph
Campbell, suggest that Moses may have fled Egypt after
Akhenaten's death (ca. 1334 BC) when many of the pharaoh's
monotheistic reforms were being violently reversed. The
principal ideas behind this theory are: the monotheistic
religion of Akhenaten being a possible predecessor to Moses'
monotheism, and the "Amarna Letters", written by nobles to
Akhenaten, which describe raiding bands of "Habiru" attacking
the Egyptian territories in Mesopotamia."

104 "...Amenhotep III..."
"Amenhotep
III, meaning Amun is Satisfied was the ninth pharaoh of the
Eighteenth dynasty. According to different authors, he ruled
Egypt from June 1391 BC-December 1353 BCE or June 1388 BCE to
December 1351 BC/1350 BCE after his father Thutmose IV died.
Amenhotep III was the son of
Thutmose IV by Mutemwia, a minor wife of Amenhotep's father.
Amenhotep III fathered two sons with his Great Royal Wife Tiye,
a great queen known as the progenitor of monotheism via the
Crown Prince Tuthmose who predeceased his father, and his second
son, Akhenaten, who ultimately succeeded him to the throne."
-- Reference: Wikipedia.org
105 "...Akhenaten..."
"Akhenaten,
meaning Effective spirit of Aten, first known as Amenhotep IV
(sometimes read as Amenophis IV and meaning Amun is Satisfied)
before his first year, was a Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty
of Egypt. He is especially noted for attempting to compel the
Egyptian population in the monotheistic worship of Aten,
although there are doubts as to how successful he was at this.
Amenhotep IV succeeded his father after Amenhotep III's death at
the end of his 38-year reign, possibly after a coregency lasting
between either 1 to 2 or 12 years. Suggested dates for
Akhenaten's reign (subject to the debates surrounding Egyptian
chronology) are from 1353 BCE - 1336 BCE or 1351 BCE – 1334 BCE
Akhenaten's chief wife was Nefertiti.
His religious reformation appears to have begun with his
decision to celebrate a Sed festival in his third regnal year –
a highly unusual step, since a Sed-festival, a sort of royal
jubilee intended to reinforce the Pharaoh's divine powers of
kingship, was traditionally held in the thirtieth year of a
Pharaoh's reign. Year eight marked the beginning of construction
on his new capital, Akhetaten ('Horizon of Aten'), at the site
known today as Amarna. In the same year, Amenhotep IV officially
changed his name to Akhenaten ('Effective Spirit of Aten') as
evidence of his shifting religious perspective.
Very soon afterward he centralized
Egyptian religious practices in Akhenaten, though construction
of the city seems to have continued for several more years. In
honor of Aten, Akhenaten also oversaw the construction of some
of the most massive temple complexes in ancient Egypt, including
one at Karnak, close to the old temple of Amun. In these new
temples, Aten was worshipped in the open sunlight, rather than
in dark temple enclosures, as had been the previous custom.
Akhenaten is also believed to have
composed the Great Hymn to the Aten. Initially, Akhenaten
presented Aten as a variant of the familiar supreme deity Amun-Ra
(itself the result of an earlier rise to prominence of the cult
of Amun, resulting in Amun becoming merged with the sun god Ra),
in an attempt to put his ideas in a familiar Egyptian religious
context. However, by Year 9 of his reign Akhenaten declared that
Aten was not merely the supreme god, but the only god, and that
he, Akhenaten, was the only intermediary between Aten and his
people. He ordered the defacing of Amun's temples throughout
Egypt, and in a number of instances inscriptions of the plural
'gods' were also removed.
Aten's name is also written
differently after Year 9, to emphasize the radicalism of the new
regime, which included a ban on idols, with the exception of a
rayed solar disc, in which the rays (commonly depicted ending in
hands) appear to represent the unseen spirit of Aten, who by
then was evidently considered not merely a sun god, but rather a
universal deity. It is important to note, however, that
representations of the Aten were always accompanied with a sort
of "hieroglyphic footnote", stating that the representation of
the sun as All-encompassing Creator was to be taken as just
that: a representation of something that, by its very nature as
something transcending creation, cannot be fully or adequately
represented by any one part of that creation."
This Amarna period is also
associated with a serious outbreak of a pandemic, possibly the
plague, or polio, or perhaps the world's first recorded outbreak
of influenza, which came from Egypt and spread throughout the
Middle East, killing Suppiluliuma I, the Hittite King. Influenza
is a disease associated with the close proximity of water fowl,
pigs and humans, and its origin as a pandemic disease may be due
to the development of agricultural systems that allow the mixing
of these animals and their wastes.
Some of the first archaeological
evidence for this agricultural system is during the Amarna
period of Ancient Egypt, and the pandemic that followed this
period throughout the Ancient Near East may have been the
earliest recorded outbreak of influenza. However, the precise
nature of this Egyptian plague remains unknown and Asia has also
been suggested as a possible site of origin of pandemic
influenza in humans. The prevalence of disease may help explain
the rapidity with which the site of Akhetaten was subsequently
abandoned.
It may also explain why later
generations considered the gods to have turned against the
Amarna monarchs. The black plague has also been suggested due to
the fact that at Amarna the traces of the plague have been
found."

106 "... Nefertiti...
"Nefertiti (pronounced at the time something like *nafrati.ta)
(c. 1370 BCE - c. 1330 BCE) was the Great Royal Wife (or chief
consort/wife) of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten. She was the
mother-in-law and probable stepmother of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun.
Nefertiti may have also ruled as pharaoh in her own right under
the name Neferneferuaten briefly after her husband's death and
before the accession of Tutankhamun, although this
identification is doubted by the latest research. Her name
roughly translates to "the beautiful (or perfect) one has
arrived".
She also shares her name with a type
of elongated gold bead, called "nefer", that she was often
portrayed as wearing. She was made famous by her bust, now in
Berlin's Altes Museum.
Nefertiti's parentage is not known with certainty, but it is now
generally believed that she was the daughter of AY later to be
pharaoh. Another theory that gained some support identified
Nefertiti with the Mitanni princess Tadukhipa. The name
Nimerithin has been mentioned in older scrolls, as an
alternative name, but this has not yet been officially
confirmed. It has also been suggested that Nefertiti was a
daughter or relative of Amenhotep III, or of the high Theban
nobility.
Another theory places Nefertiti as
the daughter of Sitamun, half-sister of Amenhotep III. Queen
Iaret was Sitamun's mother. Iaret held important hereditary
titles that ceased to exist after the ascension of Amenhotep
III. Sitamun is elevated to Great Royal Wife beside Tiye but
there is no indication that she ever had children and if so with
whom. There is some evidence based upon the titles of each of
these women that suggests that they were somehow related to one
another in her family... Her name means "beautiful one".
Nefertiti only worshiped one god by
the name of Aten. Depending on which reconstruction of the
genealogy of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs is followed, her
husband Akhenaten may have been the father or half-brother of
the Pharaoh Tutankhaten (later called Tutankhamen).
She had six known daughters with the Pharaoh Akhenaten.
This is a list with suggested years
of birth:
-
Meritaten: Before year one or
the very beginning of year one.(1356 BC).
-
Meketaten: Year 1 or three (1349
BC).
-
Ankhesenpaaten, later queen of
Tutankhamun
-
Neferneferuaten Tasherit: Year 6
(1344 BC)
-

107 "... Tutankhamun..."
"He was the son of Akhenaten, also known as Amenhotep IV, and
his minor wife Queen Kiya. Queen Kiya's title was "Greatly
Beloved Wife of Akhenaten" so it is possible that she could have
borne him an heir. Supporting this theory, images on the tomb
wall in the tomb of Akhenaten show a royal fan bearer standing
next to Kiya's death bed, fanning what is either a princess or
more likely a wet nurse holding a baby, which would indicate
that the wet nurse was holding the boy-king-to-be.
Tutankhamun was only nine or ten years old when he became
pharaoh, and reigned for approximately ten years, making him
nineteen years old at death. In historical terms Tutankhamun
significance stems from his rejection of the radical religious
innovations
introduced by his predecessor Akenhaten and that his tomb,
uniquely, in the Valley of the Kings was discovered almost
completely intact -- the most complete ancient Egyptian tomb
ever found. As Tutankhamun began his reign at such an early age,
his vizier and eventual successor Ay was probably making most of
the important political decisions during Tutankhamun's reign."

108 ..."Brothers of the Snake"...
"It cannot be overemphasized that the serpent or snake plays no
role in the teachings or ritual of regular Freemasonry. Its
introduction as a fastener for masonic aprons is easily seen as
the work of regalia manufacturers. That said, the symbolic
usages of the snake are of interest to students of religion,
esoterica, and of history.
On the other hand, George Oliver writes that the serpent is a
"significant symbol in Freemasonry: Moses' rod changed into a
serpent, "The serpentine emblem of Masonry... is a bright symbol
of Hope; for the promised Deliverer will open the gates of
Heaven to his faithful followers by bruising its head, and they
shall enter triumphantly, trampling on its prostrate body."
"A striking emblem of Christianity
triumphant; and bearing an undoubted reference to the promise
made to Adam after his unhappy fall." In mainstream Christian
beliefs, the snake represents temptation and evil: the snake is
the servant of Satan. But it has also had its more positive
significance.
In ancient Egyptian mythology the world was created by four
powers, one of which was the sun god Amun-Ra who took the form
of a snake and emerged from the water to inseminated the cosmic
egg, the kneph, which was created by the other gods. In another
story, a god named Hathor transformed himself into a poisonous
snake called Agep and killed Seth. He also guarded the wheat
fields where the spirit of Horus was said to live, bringing the
sheaf of wheat to be regarded as the symbol of rebirth. W. Bro.
H. Meij suggests that this is the root of the masonic usage of
an ear of corn in the Fellowcraft degree.
In Greek mythology Zeus freed two eagles which met at the centre
of the world, sometimes called the navel of the earth, which is
guarded by a snake called Pytho. The symbol Serpens Candivorens,
a snake biting its tail, represents the unending cycle of nature
between destruction, and new creation, life and death. The
Greeks called this figure Ouroboros. Chinese mythology
maintained that the world was surrounded by two entwined snakes,
which symbolized the power and wisdom of the creator. In another
legend the Buddha was attacked by a snake which bound itself
seven times around his waist.
Due to the inner strength of the
Buddha, the snake could not kill him but instead became his
follower.
Astrologers, or those interested in the historical development
of astrology, will point out that some systems include a
thirteenth sign of the zodiac known as Ophiuchus Serpentarius,
the Serpent Holder. This constellation lies between Sagittarius
and Libra, somewhat over Scorpio. In the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries this constellation was called Alpheichius.
Known as the "God of Invocation",
this house was named after the legendary healer, Ophiuchus
(Asclepius). The two serpents in his hands later replaced the
twin ribbons around the caduceus which became a symbol for
physicians."

"The High Priest
of Amun or First Prophet of Amun was the highest ranking priest
in the priesthood of the ancient Egyptian god Amun. "Maya" was
the High Priest of Amen until year 4 of Akhenaten. Redford
speculates that Maya is short for Ptahmose and that Ptahmose
served from the end of the reign of Amenhotep III until the
beginning of the time of Akhenaten.
"Parennefer" was the High Priest of
Amen during the reigns of Tutankhamen and Horemheb."

"(The Exodus of
Hebrew slave from Egypt, led by Moses) may have occurred around
1400s BC, since the Amarna letters, written ca. forty years
later to Pharaohs Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten)
indicate that Canaan was being invaded by the "Habiru" — whom
some scholars in the 1950s to 1970s interpret to mean "Hebrews".
Exodus 34:29-35 tells that after
meeting with God the skin of Moses' face became radiant,
frightening the Israelites and leading Moses to wear a veil.
Jonathan Kirsch, in his book Moses: A Life, thought that, since
he subsequently had to wear a veil to hide it, Moses' face was
disfigured by a sort of "divine radiation burn".

111 .. Yahweh..."
"The cartouche of Akhenaten's god
and heavenly father, the Aten, bore the name Imram. In the
Bible, Moses is referred to as the son of Amram, the Hebrew
equivalent. The name of the Egyptian deity Aten transliterates
into the Hebrew word Adon. Adon, which is translated by English
Bibles as "the Lord" (and Adonai, translated as "my Lord") is
used along with
Jehovah (Yhwh) in the Bible as
the exclusive personal names of God. Moreover, in ancient times,
the name Jehovah (Yhwh) was written, but never spoken. Whenever
the written name Jehovah (Yhwh) was to be read out loud, Adon (Aten)
was voiced instead.
The written form of Adon is
infrequent, however, its limited usage is significant,
especially in the first six books of the Bible (See under "LORD"
in Strong's Exhaustive Concordance), where it is reserved for
the following applications alone: Moses addresses God using the
title Adon/Aten (Exodus 4:10,13; 5:22; 34:9; Numbers 14:17;
Deuteronomy 3:23; 7:26; 10:17); Moses, himself, is addressed
both by Aaron (Ex.32:22; Num.12:11) and by Joshua (Numbers
11:28) using the title Adon/Aten; and Joshua also addresses God
using the title Adon/Aten (Joshua 5:14 b; 7:7).
As mentioned above, there is an
established relationship between the literature of the Egyptian
18th Dynasty and the Bible. Psalm 104 is an embellishment of the
Hymn to the Aten which was found by archaeologists at the city
of Akhetaten."

"Yahweh is an English rendition of
יהוה, the name of the God of Israel. During the Babylonian
captivity, the Hebrew language spoken by the Jews was replaced
by the Aramaic language of their Babylonian captors, which was
closely related to Hebrew and, while sharing many vocabulary
words in common, contained some words that sounded the same or
similar but had other meanings. In Aramaic, the Hebrew word for
"blaspheme" used in Leviticus 24:16, "Anyone who blasphemes the
name of YHWH must be put to death" carried the meaning of
"pronounce" rather than "blaspheme".

112 "...Torah...decoded..."
"The Bible Code is a best-selling controversial book by Michael
Drosnin, first published in 1997. A sequel, The Bible Code II,
was published in 2002 and also reached best-seller status.
Drosnin describes an alleged "Bible code", in which messages are
encoded in the Hebrew bible. The messages are purported to be
hidden in the Torah, and can be deciphered by placing the
letters of various Torah passages at equal intervals in a text
that has been formatted to fit inside a graph.
Drosnin suggests that the Code was written by extraterrestrial
life (which he claims also brought the DNA of the human genetic
code to Earth). Drosnin elaborates on this theory in The Bible
Code II, suggesting that the alien who brought the code left the
key to the code in a steel obelisk.
Drosnin attempted to find this
obelisk, which he believes is buried near the Dead Sea.
Drosnin's book is based on the technique described in the paper
"Equidistant Letter Sequences in the Book of Genesis" by
Professor Eliyahu Rips of the Hebrew University in Israel with
Doron Witztum and Yoav Rosenberg."

113 "... Buddha ..."
"The following points are the a few of the fundamentals of the
teachings attributed to Gautama Buddha:
The Four Noble Truths: that
suffering is an inherent part of existence; that the origin
of suffering is ignorance and the main symptoms of that
ignorance are attachment and craving; that attachment and
craving can be ceased; and that following the Noble
Eightfold Path will lead to the cessation of attachment and
craving and therefore suffering.
The Noble Eightfold Path: right understanding, right
thought, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right
effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration.
Dependent origination: that any phenomenon 'exists' only
because of the 'existence' of other phenomena in a complex
web of cause and effect covering time past, present and
future.
Because all things are thus conditioned and transient (anicca),
they have no real independent identity (anatta).
Anicca (Sanskrit: anitya): That all things are impermanent.
Anatta (Sanskrit: anatman): That the perception of a
constant "self" is an illusion.
Dukkha (Sanskrit: du kha): That all beings suffer from all
situations due to unclear mind.
According to tradition, the Buddha
emphasized ethics and correct understanding. He questioned the
average person's notions of divinity and salvation. He stated
that gods are subjected to karma themselves; and the Buddha is
solely a guide and teacher for the sentient beings who must
tread the path of Nirva a themselves to attain the spiritual
awakening called bodhi and see truth and reality as it is.
The Buddhist system of insight and
meditation practice is not believed to have been revealed
divinely, but by the understanding of the true nature of the
mind, which must be discovered by personally treading a
spiritual path guided by the Buddha's teachings."

114 "... Laozi..."
"The Daodejing, often called simply the Laozi after its reputed
author, describes the Dao (or Tao) as the mystical source and
ideal of all existence: it is unseen, but not transcendent,
immensely powerful yet supremely humble, being the root of all
things. According to the Daodejing, humans have no special place
within the Dao, being just one of its many ("ten thousand")
manifestations.
People have desires and free will
(and thus are able to alter their own nature). Many act
"unnaturally", upsetting the natural balance of the Dao. The
Daodejing intends to lead students to a "return" to their
natural state, in harmony with Dao. Language and conventional
wisdom are critically assessed. Taoism views them as inherently
biased and artificial, widely using paradoxes to sharpen the
point.
Wu wei, literally "non-action" or "not acting", is a central
concept of the Daodejing. The concept of wu wei is very complex
and reflected in the words' multiple meanings, even in English
translation; it can mean "not doing anything", "not forcing",
"not acting" in the theatrical sense, "creating nothingness",
"acting spontaneously", and "flowing with the moment."
Laozi used the term broadly with simplicity and humility as key
virtues, often in contrast to selfish action. On a political
level, it means avoiding such circumstances as war, harsh laws
and heavy taxes. Some Taoists see a connection between wu wei
and esoteric practices, such as the "sitting in oblivion"
(emptying the mind of bodily awareness and thought) found in the
Zhuangzi.
Taoism is a religion addressing the quest of immortality."

115 "...Zoroaster..."
"The best known (Zoroastrians were the) Magi, the "Wise Men from
the East" in the Bible, (who brought gifts to Bethlehem) and
whose graves Marco Polo claimed to have seen in what is today
the district of Saveh, near Tehran, Iran. In English, the term
is the origin of the words magic and magician.
"Many traits of Zoroastrianism can be traced back to the culture
and beliefs of the proto-Indo-Iranian period, and Zoroastrianism
consequently shares some elements with the historical Vedic
religion that also has its origins in that era.
Central to Zoroastrianism is the emphasis on moral choice, to
choose between the responsibility and duty for which one is in
the mortal world, or to give up this duty and so facilitate the
work of druj. Similarly, predestination is rejected in
Zoroastrian teaching. Humans bear responsibility for all
situations they are in, and in the way they act to one another.
Reward, punishment, happiness and grief all depend on how
individuals live their life.
In Zoroastrianism, good transpires for those who do righteous
deeds. Those who do evil have themselves to blame for their
ruin. Zoroastrian morality is then to be summed up in the simple
phrase, "good thoughts, good words, good deeds".
There is one universal and transcendental God, Ahura Mazda, the
one uncreated creator and to whom all worship is ultimately
directed.
Ahura Mazda's creation — evident as truth and order — is the
antithesis of chaos, falsehood and disorder. The resulting
conflict involves the entire universe, including humanity, which
has an active role to play in the conflict.
Active participation in life through good thoughts, good words
and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep the
chaos at bay. This active participation is a central element in
Zoroaster's concept of free will."

116 "The land masses continually
crack, crumble and drift."
"Plate tectonics (from Greek TZKTWV, tekton "builder" or
"mason") is a theory of geology that has been developed to
explain the observed evidence for large scale motions of the
Earth's lithosphere. The theory encompassed and superseded the
older theory of continental drift from the first half of the
20th century and the concept of seafloor spreading developed
during the 1960s.
The outermost part of the Earth's interior is made up of two
layers: above is the lithosphere, comprising the crust and the
rigid uppermost part of the mantle. Below the lithosphere lies
the asthenosphere. Although solid, the asthenosphere has
relatively low viscosity and shear strength and can flow like a
liquid on geological time scales. The deeper mantle below the
asthenosphere is more rigid again. This is, however, not because
of cooler temperatures but due to high pressure.
The lithosphere is broken up into what are called tectonic
plates — in the case of Earth, there are seven major and many
minor plates. The lithospheric plates ride on the asthenosphere.
These plates move in relation to one another at one of three
types of plate boundaries: convergent or collision boundaries,
divergent or spreading boundaries, and transform boundaries.
Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic
trench formation occur along plate boundaries. The lateral
movement of the plates is typically at speeds of 5 - 10
centimeters/yr."

117 " The magnetic poles of the
planet shift radically about once every 20,000 years".
"The pole shift theory is a hypothesis that the axis of rotation
of a planet has not always been at its present-day locations or
that the axis will not persist there; in other words, that its
physical poles had been or will be shifted. Pole shift theory is
almost always discussed in the context of Earth, but other solar
system bodies may have experienced axial reorientation during
their existences.
Pole shift theories are not to be confused with plate tectonics,
the well-accepted geological theory that the Earth's surface
consists of solid plates which shift over a fluid asthenosphere;
nor with continental drift, the corollary to plate tectonics
which maintains that locations of the continents have moved
slowly over the face of the earth, resulting in the gradual
emerging and breakup of continents and oceans over hundreds of
millions of years.
Pole shift theories are also not to be confused with Geomagnetic
reversal, the periodic reversal of the earth's magnetic field
(effectively switching the north and south magnetic poles).
Geomagnetic reversal has more acceptance in the scientific
community than pole shift theories."

118 " This operation is managed by
the secret police..."
"Secret police (sometimes political police) are a police
organization which operates in secrecy to maintain national
security against internal threats to the state. Secret police
forces are typically associated with totalitarian regimes, as
they are often used to maintain the political power of the state
rather than uphold the rule of law. Secret police are law
enforcement organizations officially endowed with authority
superior to civil police forces, operating outside the normal
boundaries of the law, and they are often accountable only to
the executive branch of the government.
They operate entirely or partially
in secrecy; i.e., most or all of their operations are obscure
and hidden from the general public and from all government
officials, except for the topmost executive officials. Secret
police organizations have often been used as an instrument of
political repression.
States where the secret police wield
significant power are sometimes referred to as police states.
Secret police differ from the domestic security agencies in
modern liberal democracies, because domestic security agencies
are generally subject to government regulation, reporting
requirements, and other accountability measures. Despite such
oversight, there still exists the possibility of
domestic-security agencies acting unlawfully and taking on some
characteristics of secret police.
Secret police not only have the traditional police authority to
arrest and detain, but in some cases they are given unsupervised
control of the length of detention, assigned to implement
punishments independent of the public judiciary, and allowed to
administer those punishments without external review.
The tactics of investigation and
intimidation used by secret police enable them to accrue so much
power that they usually operate with little or no practical
restraint. Secret-police organizations employ internal spies and
civilian informants to find protest leaders or dissidents, and
they may also employ agents provocateurs to incite political
opponents to perform illegal acts against the government,
whereupon such opponents may be arrested. Secret police may open
mail, tap telephone lines, use various techniques to trick,
blackmail, or coerce relatives or friends of a suspect into
providing information. The secret police are renowned for
raiding homes between midnight and dawn, to apprehend people
suspected of dissent.
People apprehended by the secret police are often arbitrarily
arrested and detained without due process. While in detention,
arrestees may be tortured or subjected to inhumane treatment.
Suspects may not receive a public trial, and instead may be
convicted in a kangaroo court-style show trial, or by a secret
tribunal.
Secret police have been used by many types of governments.
Secret police forces in dictatorships and totalitarian states
usually use violence and acts of terror to suppress political
opposition and dissent, and may use death squads to carry out
assassinations and "disappearances". Although secret police
normally do not exist in democratic states there are different
varieties of democracy and, in times of emergency or war, a
democracy may lawfully grant its policing and security services
additional or sweeping powers, which may be seen or construed as
a secret police."

119 "...using false provocation
operations to disguise their activities..."
"False flag operations are covert operations conducted by
governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are
designed to appear as if they are being carried out by other
entities. The name is derived from the military concept of
flying false colors; that is, flying the flag of a country other
than one's own. False flag operations are not limited to war and
counter-insurgency operations, and have been used in peace¬time;
for example, during Italy's strategy of tension.
During the Italian strategy of tension in which several bombings
in the 1970s, attributed to far-left organizations, were in fact
carried out by far-right organizations cooperating with the
Italian secret services (see Operation Gladio, 1969 Piazza
Fontana bombing, 1972 Peteano attack by Vincenzo Vinciguerra,
1973 assassination attempt of former Interior Minister Mariano
Rumor, 1980 Bologna massacre, etc. and various investigations,
for example by Guido Salvini). In France, the Masada Action and
Defense Movement, supposedly a Zionist group, was really a
neo-fascist terrorist group which hoped to increase tension
between Arabs and Jews in France.
False flag tactics were also employed during the Algerian civil
war, starting in the mid-1994. Death squads composed of
DRS(Departement du Renseignement et de la Securite) security
forces disguised themselves as Islamist terrorists and committed
false flag terror attacks. Such groups included the OJAL (Organisation
of Young Free Algerians) or the OSSRA (Secret Organisation for
the safeguard of the Algerian Republic) According to Roger
Faligot and Pascal Kropp (1999), the OJAL reminded of 'the
Organization of the French Algerian Resistance (ORAF), a group
of counter-terrorists created in December 1956 by the DST
(Direction de la Surveillance du Territoire / Territorial
Surveillance Directorate) whose mission was to carry out
terrorist attacks with the aim of quashing any hopes of
political compromise."
On the night of Feb. 27, 1933 the Reichstag building was set on
fire. At the urging of Hitler, Hindenburg responded the next day
by issuing an emergency decree "for the Protection of the people
and the State," which stated: "Restrictions on personal liberty,
on the right of free expression of opinion, including freedom of
the press; on the rights of assembly and association; and
violations of the privacy of postal, telegraphic and telephonic
communications and warrants for house searches, orders for
confiscations as well as restrictions on property, are also
permissible beyond the legal limits otherwise prescribed."
After 74 years, the question of who
actually started the Reichstag fire is still unknown and
occasionally debated.
There are various 9/11 conspiracy theories (and a very large
body of hard evidence -Editor) which say the September 11, 2001
attacks on the US were a false flag operation."

120 "... mind-control methods developed by government
psychiatrists..."
"William Sargant was a consultant to the British Secret
Intelligence Service (MI5/MI6). In 1953 he associated with Frank
Olson, Deputy Acting Head of Special Operations for the CIA,
investigating the use of mind-bending drugs at the Biological
Warfare Centre at Porton Down.
In 1944 he collaborated with Slater in writing An Introduction
to Physical Methods of Treatment in Psychiatry, a textbook on
biological psychiatry that included lobotomy and shock therapy
and remained in print for three decades.
William Sargant was a pioneer in methods of placing false
memories into patients. He attested at the 1977 U.S. Senate
hearing, "that the therapist should deliberately distort the
facts of the patient's life-experience to achieve heightened
emotional response and abreaction. In the drunken state of
narcoanalysis patients are prone to accept the therapist's false
constructions."
In 1957 William Sargant published one of the first books on the
psychology of brainwashing, Battle for the Mind. William Sargant
connected Pavlov's findings to the ways people learned and
internalized belief systems. Conditioned behavior patterns could
be changed by stimulated stresses beyond a dog's capacity for
response, in essence causing a breakdown. This could also be
caused by intense signals, longer than normal waiting periods,
rotating positive and negative signals and changing a dog's
physical condition, as through illness. Depending on the dog's
initial personality, this could possibly cause a new belief
system to be held tenaciously. Sargant also connected Pavlov's
findings to the mechanisms of brain-washing in religion and
politics.
Sargant and Dr Ewen Cameron of Project MKULTRA notoriety, were
friends and colleagues who shared and exchanged views and
information on brainwashing and de-patterning techniques and
their mutual researches in this area. Both men had extensive CIA
and British Secret Intelligence Service connections.
The aim of Cameron, Sargant and the CIA's researches was to find
a way to obliterate the memories of an allied spy
('de-patterning') and implant false memories at a deep level so
that if that spy was captured in his adoptive country, he would
be incapable under duress or even torture of revealing his true
American/British allegiance. He would only be able to reveal the
falsely implanted memories that supported his assumed persona.
This concept became termed 'The Manchurian Candidate' after the
novel.
The extensive use of 'heroic' doses
of Electron Convulsive Shock Treatment combined with Deep Sleep
Treatment (narcosis), anti-depressants, tape-loops, insulin coma
therapy, and other drugs in this context, was designed to induce
catastrophic memory loss which would then supposedly be replaced
with false memories and ideas (via tape loops, hypnosis, LSD or
conversations while the person was drugged).
In addition to LSD, Cameron also experimented with various
paralytic drugs, as well as electroconvulsive therapy at 30 to
40 times the normal power. His "driving" experiments consisted
of putting subjects into drug-induced coma for months on end (up
to three in one case) while playing tape loops of noise or
simple repetitive statements. His experiments were typically
carried out on patients who had entered the institute for minor
problems such as anxiety disorders and post-partum depression,
many of whom suffered permanently from his actions."

121 ..."Earth is a "ghetto" planet..."
"Ghetto" is also used figuratively
to indicate geographic areas with a concentration of any type of
person. Ghetto is formed in three ways: As ports of entry for
racial minorities, and immigrant racial minorities. When the
majority uses compulsion (typically violence, hostility, or
legal barriers) to force minorities into particular areas.
When the majority is willing and
able to pay more than the minority to live with its own kind.
During World War II ghettos in occupied Europe 1939-1944 were

122 "... Holocaust..."
"The Holocaust (from the Greek _λόκαυστον
(holókauston): holos, "completely" and kaustos, "burnt"), is the
term generally used to describe the killing of approximately six
million European Jews during World War II, as part of a program
of deliberate extermination planned and executed by the National
Socialist (Nazi) regime in Germany led by Adolf Hitler. Other
groups were persecuted and killed by the regime, including the
Roma; Soviets, particularly prisoners of war; ethnic Poles;
other Slavic people; the disabled; gay men; and political and
religious dissidents.
The persecution and genocide were
accomplished in stages. Legislation to remove the Jews from
civil society was enacted years before the outbreak of World War
II. Concentration camps were established in which inmates were
used as slave labour until they died of exhaustion or disease.
Where the Third Reich conquered new territory in eastern Europe,
specialized units called Einsatzgruppen murdered Jews and
political opponents in mass shootings.
Jews and Roma were crammed into
ghettos before being transported hundreds of miles by freight
train to extermination camps where, if they survived the
journey, the majority of them were killed in gas chambers. Every
arm of Germany's bureaucracy was involved in the logistics of
the mass murder, turning the country into what one Holocaust
scholar has called "a genocidal state."

"Holocaust documenters argue that
the medicalization of social problems and systematic euthanasia
of people in German mental institutions in the 1930s provided
the institutional, procedural, and doctrinal origins of the mass
murder of the 1940s. The Nuremberg Trials convicted a number of
psychiatrists who held key positions in Nazi regimes."

(1986). Mass Murderers in White Coats: Psychiatric Genocide in
Nazi Germany and the United States.
The tie between Hitler and the eugenic psychiatrists was so
close that much of Mein Kampf is literally indistinguishable in
language and in tone from the major international journals and
psychiatric textbooks of the time.
To quote from a few of many such
passages in Mein Kampf:
"To demand that defective people
be prevented from propagating equally defective offspring is
a demand for the clearest reason and, if systematically
executed, represents the most humane act of mankind..."
"Those who are physically and mentally unhealthy and
unworthy must not perpetuate their; suffering in the bodies
of their children ..."
"A prevention of the faculty and opportunity to procreate on
the part of the physically degenerate and the mentally sick
... would not only free humanity from an immeasurable
misfortune but would lead to a recovery which today seems
scarcely conceivable."
Hitler received support from
psychiatrists and social scientists around the world after he
took power. Many articles in the world's leading medical
journals monitored and heaped praise on Hitler's eugenic
legislation and policies.
Records uncovered by Abrams at the hospital confirm that the
extermination had begun as a part of a national psychiatric
program before Hitler took on the systematic murder of the Jews.
Hundreds of patients had been shipped off to psychiatric
extermination centers prior to the end of 1941, when the
national program was largely abandoned and local state mental
hospitals took over "the action" on their own.
The psychiatric extermination program was not a hidden, secret
shame of psychiatry - at least, not at the start. It was
organized by leading professors of psychiatry and directors of
mental hospitals through a series of national meetings and
workshops. So-called euthanasia forms were circulated to
individual hospitals, and final approval of each death was then
given in Berlin by a committee of the nation's outstanding
psychiatrists. By January 1940 patients were being shipped to
six special extermination centers staffed by psychiatrists.
In late 1941, public outrage and lack of enthusiasm from Hitler
pushed the program underground, but between 100,000 and 200,000
German mental patients had been killed. From then on, individual
institutions, such as that at Kaufbeuren, continued to act on
their own, even admitting new patients for the purpose of
murdering them. At the end of the war, many large institutions
were entirely empty, and estimates from various war-crime
tribunals, including Nuremberg, estimate the number of dead to
be between 250,000 and 300,000, mostly inmates of psychiatric
hospitals and homes for the retarded...
Psychiatrist Frederic Wertham, by no means a radical critic of
his profession, deserves the credit for being the first to
describe the role of psychiatry in Nazi Germany:...
"The tragedy is that the PSYCHIATRISTS did not have to have an
order. They acted on their own. They were not carrying out a
death sentence pronounced by somebody else. They were the
legislators who laid down the rules for deciding who was to die;
they were the administrators who worked out the procedures,
provided the patients and the places, and decided the methods of
killing; they pronounced a sentence of life or death in each
individual case; they were the executioners who carried the
sentences out or -- without being coerced to do so --
surrendered their patients to be killed in other institutions;
they supervised and often watched the slow deaths..."
By November 1, 1941, the first extermination camps were being
built: first Belzec, then Sobibor, Treblinka, Chelmno and
Majdanek, and finally Auschwitz-Birkenau.
At first, vague plans were made in Nazi Germany to deport all
European Jews to Madagascar. Adolf Eichmann, in particular,
supported this option before the Wannsee Conference of 1942,
where he was made privy to the exact details of the "Final
Solution".
SS chief Heinrich Himmler stated:
"However cruel and tragic each
individual case may be, this method is still the mildest and
best, if one rejects the Bolshevik method of physical
extermination of a people out of inner conviction as
un-German and impossible."
The original plan was to use the
Royal Navy after Britain's defeat to exile all of Europe's Jews
to Madagascar. However, since the British were not defeated as
anticipated by the Nazis, the Madagascar Plan had to be
abandoned.
The extermination process in Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka was
similar to the method used in the six extermination camps in
Germany and Austria, but hugely scaled up for killing whole
transports of people at a time.
Victims would hand over their valuables, which became property
of the German Reichsbank. They then undressed, and their clothes
were searched for jewelry and other valuables. Victims were then
marched into the gas chamber and packed tightly to minimize the
available fresh air. An engine created carbon monoxide gas which
was then discharged through gas pipes, killing the occupants.
Their corpses were cremated after any gold dental fillings were
removed. The mass murder was carefully tracked and documented.
For example, the intercepted Hofle Telegram sent by SS-Sturmbannfuhrer
Hermann Hofle on January 11, 1943 to SS-Obersturmbannfuhrer
Adolf Eichmann in Berlin listed 1,274,166 total arrivals to the
four camps of Aktion Reinhard through the end of 1942, as well
as the total arrivals by camp for the last two weeks of 1942.
The structure of all camps was nearly identical. From the
reception area with ramp and undressing barracks, the Jews
entered a narrow, camouflaged path (called sluice or tube) to
the extermination area with gas chambers, pits and cremation
grids. The SS and Trawnikis stayed in a separate area. Barbed
wire fences, partially camouflaged with pine branches,
surrounded the camp and separated the different parts. Unlike
Auschwitz, no electric fences were used. Wooden watchtowers
guarded the camp.
Approximately 2 million Jews lost their lives in Belzec, Sobibor,
Treblinka and Majdanek in the course of Operation Reinhard.
Approximately 178,045,960 German Reichsmark worth of Jewish
property (today's value: around 700,000,000 $US or 550,000,000
Euros) was stolen. This money went not only to German
authorities, but also to single individuals (SS and police men,
camp guards, non-Jewish inhabitants of towns and villages with
ghettos or adjacent camps)."
