True sustainability would mean that a population does not erode it’s land base. In a globalized world, all rural areas simply become the extraction base for city people, who are disconnected from stewardship. Thus, in a globalized world, there are no stewards, there are just supply chains and markets and consumers. With a population of non-producers, extraction can only be run by computers because local stewardship has morphed to urban “freedom.” “Freedom” means not being responsible. (“Liberty” means being free to overrun indigenous cultures. Most patriots are still colonizers. Words like freedom and liberty need to be replaced by words like responsibility and stewardship.) Since local diverse cultures are outside the computer model, they are obstacles to efficiency. In fact, this exactly is why Facebook is sending wireless drones, and why World Bank is pushing Early Childhood Initiative, upon indigenous peoples. It is to destroy them, so there is nothing in the way of centralization. At same time, migrants are used to destroy national loyalties. The goal is “one big happy family” of disconnected globalized slaves. Diversity is difficult to manage, so diversity becomes the enemy of centralization. Because nature is diverse, nature too is the enemy. GMO crops are more predictable. Even human nature is the enemy of centralization, because human nature wants connection, not powerless disconnection. Human nature is being attacked psychologically with Common Core Curriculum and a gender free non-ethic. Full spectrum dominance means anything natural must be converted to efficiently managed units, including you and I,…
Understanding Liberal Bias by Ray Songtree, March 27, 2016 Author of the non-profit Lipstick and War Crimes series. Once upon a time, liberal meant kind. But now that has changed. Those that consider themselves liberal often claim a higher moral ground which is actually amoral, because words like right and wrong are banned as “hate speech.” Common Core Curriculum teaches this amorality in schools now and Early Childhood Initiative by World Bank is taking this global. In the utopian world of “development”, only the one world government’s definition of “Universal Human Rights” is valid, and any other cultural preference is considered “unequal” and “not fair.” Since parents might have their own unique ideas, the responsibility to teach ethics and values is increasingly taken from parents and taught instead at school. This includes sexual norms. At school and in the media, “Tolerance” is the new god. Tolerance means there can only be the one standard of what is tolerable. Anyone with other ideas of what is tolerable or intolerable is called an “extremist.” According to Common Core Curriculum, defining any and all sexual behavior as normal is being tolerant. Therefore no deviant behavior exists because there is no definition of deviancy. This is the liberal bias. Tolerance ultimately means no definition of right and wrong. Many liberals believe it is superior to have no standards that impinge on others. They think they themselves are superior and anyone who disagrees is backwards. That is, they have arrogance. This comes straight from the…
Author Patrick Wood lines up many missing links for me in his book Technocracy Rising. (link to Barnes site. Please purchase this. This is the real deal) Here is link to sign up for his newsletter on right side of this page. He needs to convert his book to Ebook immediately. I suggest that everyone download my free vol 1 and then order Vol 2. I suggest everyone immediately buy Technocracy Rising. If you believe resistance is timely now, this book IS timely now. He has explained a missing link for me… Jimmy Carter. He has explained why Kauai County has a “comprehensive” land use plan. I will read his book two or three times to drill it all into my mind. As always, we don’t want total agreement. If we respect diversity, then we don’t expect conformity. I don’t agree with Patrick Wood about some things. He has not mentioned the dominant culture, which is based on monotheism and “I have THE truth.” He quotes the Bible instead of Jesus, and there is a difference. As long as there is a dominant culture that thinks it knows the TRUTH, there will be destruction of diverse human expression, human cultures (plural) and national and personal sovereignty, which is what trans-humanism/technocracy is all about. “To give humans “equal” rations for “peace” on OUR Earth, we will make them inhuman.” For those who think Max Hubbert was an authentic Peak Oil guru, his predictions, like fake global warming, was a plan, and…
Hi J Some operators offered boat trips into Kalalau. They still will, but they won’t land on beach which was the illegal part, and people will need permits to be onshore. I have used their services. They haul out tons of trash. The people who live there are trying to live a simple lifestyle and I support them. I am not into total control and needing a permit to go hiking. It is just a matter of time before there is permanent settlements and agriculture in Kalalau and the government is presently in the way. It should be allowed now. Off grid living without zoning or intrusions should be normal. But of course, that is anathema to this regime which allows nothing to be un-regulated and comes up with more and more and more safety excuses for more intrusion. We have to obey the insurance industry, after all. The garbage everywhere is crazy. I’m looking forward to when most packaging is illegal, and most goods are sold in bulk, with people providing their own bags which are not disposable. Wouldn’t that be cheaper than garbage pickup? But before that common sense happens, tourism will crash and people will start living in Kalalau again. This will happen in my lifetime. The bubble of tourism is going to decline as all the destabilization programs, such as cheap heroin, wrecks society. They need an excuse. So geoengineering, heroine, Muslims… some perfect storm of stress to cause the system to fail to carefully control-demolish…
Zika – Latest Actor in the Fake Pandemic Play? -by Makia Freeman, editor of The Freedom Articles and senior researcher at ToolsForFreedom.com (FaceBook ) http://freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com/zika-virus-bioweapon-or-fake-pandemic/#comment-1180016 Zika is the latest health scare to dominate the headlines. Is it a real threat? Is it a bioweapon? Or another fake pandemic? Zika is the latest health scare to dominate the headlines of the MSM (Mainstream Media). The WHO (World Health Organization) declared a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” 3 days ago on February 1st, 2016. They stated that “the experts agreed that a causal relationship between Zika infection during pregnancy and microcephaly is strongly suspected, though not yet scientifically proven.” Did you catch that – not scientifically proven? However, the lack of scientific proof has not stopped all sorts of fearmongering by the MSM and Governments around the world. Apologists for this may claim it’s better to be prepared than not, but you have to wonder about that kind of preparation when Governments like those in El Salvador have actually instructed their citizens not to have sex! Before getting overly scared, paranoid or doing a “zika freaka”, it’s worthwhile investigating the issue further. Is zika a real threat? If so, is it a bioweapon or an agent of bioterrorism or biowarfare? Or is this another fake pandemic like ebola, SARS and many others before it? The Zika virus: made in a Rockefeller lab. The Zika Virus – Another Fake Pandemic Like Ebola? It’s pretty early on in the life of the current zika phenomenon – and at this stage I would suggest calling…
Steve Jobs, transformed by CNN to negative icon… CNN placed this two hour film (with the commercials) as prime time weekend evening feature several nights in a row. They are attempting to bend the legacy and life of Apple Inc’s Steve Jobs. The purpose of film “The Man in the Machine”, as I had thought, was to tarnish Steve Jobs in the eyes of world, and to promote Bill Gates, with fake headline in movie, “Bill Gates gives 100 million to India,” which is a lie. Gates gave India 47,000 cases of paralysis. Gates also invested in Monsanto which forced suicide of tens of thousands of Indian farmers because their seed would not re-germinate. These are called “terminator seeds.” Yet Gates is spun as a philanthropist in the movie. Jobs did in fact give money to charity, which the video could easily have covered, but intentionally painted picture of the opposite. Steve Jobs was quiet and NOT an egotist about his charity, as Gates is. Globalist minion Al Gore is shown in positive light in movie. The globalists are painted positive, while Steve Jobs, a non-conformist, is painted negative. The movie is therefore pro manmade global warming and pro Bill Gates Foundation, both globalist fronts for more control. Of course CNN covers up truth and spreads spin as CNN is wholly controlled also. The movie paints the bad guys as good, and Steve Jobs as an “asshole.” The movie says Jobs tried to deny he was father of a child….
Please scroll down for this photo essay. Quick introduction to article: Many people ask “Is Adele in Illuminati?” This shows a misunderstanding. The music industry IS controlled by Big Money, and all money is controlled by the Rothschild central banks. That is the pyramid. It is a music industry, a money industry, a controlled industry. Everyone who is successful in entertainment is part of this pyramid. Success is not allowed without compromises. As many artists have admitted, you must sell yourself to evil in order to be granted success. Evil includes rituals where young children are raped and killed. (Excellent playlist of videos on Illuminati Music Industry) Below is photo of illuminati pyramid atop Supreme Court Building in Jeruselum, built by Dorothy Rothschild. The Illuminati is same as New World Order is same as Zionists is same as banksters – (link) Predatory colonization became predatory Globalization. The Rothschilds created CIA, UN, IMF, World Bank, Ms. Magazine (CIA) and Playboy Magazine (CIA). There really is a matrix of lies surrounding us and we need to wake up, one piece of evidence at a time. Because the entertainment industry is captivating, especially for youth, this is where the symbolism and the social engineering is pushed. The controllers want to take us away from what we naturally are. We are not naturally sheeple. We are not naturally sexually random and promiscuous. None of us are naturally gender neutral. Hollywood, Bollywood, the Grammy Awards, and Half time at super bowl are all controlled. We only have…
Officials Declare ‘Eating Healthy’ A “Mental Disorder” http://www.healthfreedoms.org/officials-declare-eating-healthy-a-mental-disorder/ In an attempt to curb the mass rush for food change and reform, psychiatry has green lighted a public relations push to spread awareness about their new buzzword “orthorexia nervosa,” defined as “a pathological obsession for biologically pure and healthy nutrition.” In other words, experts are moving toward saying that our demand for nutrient-dense, healthful food is a mental disorder that must be treated. CNN, Fast Company, Popular Science, and other top outlets have all began to trumpet the talking points on cue relatively recently: “Orthorexia nervosa is a label designated to those who are concerned about eating healthy. Characterized by disordered eating fueled by a desire for “clean” or “healthy” foods, those diagnosed with the condition are overly pre-occupied with the nutritional makeup of what they eat”. In short, if you turn your back on low quality, corporate food containing known cancer causing toxic additives and a rich history of dishonesty rooted in a continuous “profits over people” modus operandi, then you may suffer from a mental illness. The cherry on top is that if you have the pseudo-science labeled disorder of orthorexia nervosa, you will be prescribed known toxic, pharmaceutical drugs from some of the same conglomerate corporations that you are trying to avoid by eating healthy in the first place. Orthorexia has not yet found its way into the latest edition of the psychiatric bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), yet is commonly being lumped in with other eating disorders….
(This post includes four articles) The Non-Spirit Behind Israel by Ray Songtree, by blood an Ashkenazi Jew and by awakening, an anti-Zionist, Dec 1, 2015 (My entire extended family was killed by Nazi’s, but the Nazi’s were created and placed by Wall Street and the Rothschilds, who also funded Zionism and Israel.) “Israel may have the right to put others on trial, but certainly no one has the right to put the Jewish people and the state of Israel on trial,” – Former Israeli Prime Minster Ariel Sharon 2001 Corporations are like mercenaries, paid to do their work. Though they are controlled by central banks, who is feeding money to these corporations? It is each of us who are the source of funding, with our consumer spending and also our taxes, used to pay the military contractors, known as the military-industrial complex. Who makes the decisions on where taxes are spent? Congress. Who controls Congress? The American Israel Public Affairs Committee AIPAC and the FED, both Zionist, control Congress. It has taken me some time to realize that Zionists control the West. I understood it was banksters, and I understood the chief Rothschild banksters were Jewish, but it didn’t occur to me that little Israel could be the benefactor and organizer of so much control. The discovery of the statement by first Prime Minister of Israel in Look magazine in 1962 (to right) finally implicated the nexus behind the New World Order. Also recently I discovered that Israel was…
“Horrible & Numbing”: Chilling Testimony From U.S. Air Force Drone Operator On His First Kill November 24, 2015 by Arjun Walia. http://www.collective-evolution.com/2015/11/24/horrible-numbing-chilling-testimony-from-u-s-air-force-drone-operator-on-his-first-kill/ Former Air Force pilot Brandon Bryan is one of the first ever United States drone operators to speak out against what has been happening overseas for a number of years now, which is the murder of countless innocent lives. Bryan served as a sensor operator for what’s known as the “Predator program” from 2007 to 20011. He was responsbile for manning the camera on the unmanned aerial vehicles that carried out attacks overseas before leaving active duty in the Air Force, and, as Democracy Now reports, was actually given a certificate that credited his squadron for more than 1,500 kills. The US clearly encourages and rewards this type of activity. Think about that while you consider what is still happening around the world, including in Syria. Below is Bryant’s recounting of his first-ever lethal drone strike and the impact it continues to have on him to this day: I didn’t really understand what it meant to kill at first. It was horrible. The first time was horrible, the second time was horrible, the third time was numbing, the fourth time was numbing, but of course the first time sticks with you the longest. The Ones Pulling The Triggers & Giving The Orders Need To Stop Kudos to Bryan for doing his part to shed more light on the atrocities being committed overseas. It really hits home a specific message, and a specific solution. That solution is for…
The Following is excerpt from correspondence from Eileen Dannemann. Director, National Coalition of Organized Women, Founder, VaccineLiberationArmy.com **************************************************************** . Dr. Makovits, researcher at the National Cancer Institute (30 years)… Important interview (GAG ORDER LIFTED): http://vaccineliberationarmy.com/2015/11/26/phd-dr-judy-mikovits-biochemistry-formerly-national-cancer-institute/ I am also copying a few others to simultaneously educate them on the importance of pharmacogenetics and infant’s inability to metabolize the excipients in vaccines. Dear Judy: I noticed that you mentioned Stephanie Seneff (MIT) in your Candayce Estave interview as well. And that your target age not to give vaccines is 3 years old. We have been working on excipients and pharmacogenetics for a few years now. I was wondering if Stephanie or anyone sent you some of our emails on Cytochrome P450 and and its immaturity during infancy and childhood…an immaturity not resolved generally until three years old. This study is particularly poignant: *Ped cyp enzymes (see graph) (very important study of the immaturity of cyp 450 superfamilies in infants and children. Additionally, here is the link that we tied some of the vaccine excipients cytochrome p450 and their various super families:http://vaccineliberationarmy.com/2015/05/27/inability-of-infants-to-metabolize-vaccine-excipients-cytochrome-p450/ The good news is that the pharma industry has been paying for these studies because they must…that is they must study drug interactions as people are in various conditions of metabolism: non metabolizers, normal and rapid metabolisers. So there is now a great demand to associate a person’s metabolism with the specific drug in order to identify the correct dosage. And this is to our advantage. Moreover, there is an movement…
“Glyphosate, the active ingredient of Monsanto’s Roundup, depletes serotonin and dopamine levels in mammals.” http://permaculture.com.au/why-gardening-makes-you-happy-and-cures-depression/ Why Gardening Makes You Happy and Cures Depression by Robyn Francis While mental health experts warn about depression as a global epidemic, other researchers are discovering ways we trigger our natural production of happy chemicals that keep depression at bay, with surprising results. All you need to do is get your fingers dirty and harvest your own food. In recent years I’ve come across two completely independent bits of research that identified key environmental triggers for two important chemicals that boost our immune system and keep us happy – serotonin and dopamine. What fascinated me as a permaculturist and gardener were that the environmental triggers happen in the garden when you handle the soil and harvest your crops. Getting down and dirty is the best ‘upper’ – Serotonin Getting your hands dirty in the garden can increase your serotonin levels – contact with soil and a specific soil bacteria, Mycobacterium vaccae, triggers the release of serotonin in our brain according to research. Serotonin is a happy chemical, a natural anti-depressant and strengthens the immune system. Lack of serotonin in the brain causes depression. Ironically, in the face of our hyper-hygienic, germicidal, protective clothing, obsessive health-and-safety society, there’s been a lot of interesting research emerging in recent years regarding how good dirt is for us, and dirt-deficiency in childhood is implicated in contributing to quite a spectrum of illnesses including allergies, asthma and mental disorders. At…
Post from International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network. Nov. 19, 2015 This is very good and I didn’t know about this organization. Article needs bullet points or something. Like my writing, this article asks the reader to think differently, which most people find new and unfamiliar. I love that it brings in the idea that colonialism as ongoing and that true perpetrator in the Middle East is the historic colonialists. For me some of the central points in article are: The acts by a group of criminals does not implicate the entire religion, be the criminals Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Hindu or Buddhist (Sri Lanka). Hatred of entire religions is never justified. The media is guilty of promoting some deaths as important, and ignoring others. This is done for political reasons, proving that the media is under a political directive and we are all being brain washed to accept more injustice. France supports endless war as an arms dealer, second only in guilt to U.S.. Israel too is an arms dealer. Their business is destabilization. Whoever committed the attack in Paris, did so to incite a reaction. France’s president seemed ready in advance to send a warship to Syria to kill untold hundreds or thousands of innocent bystanders. Why not cut off the supply of arms and stop the killing instead of creating more? “The French and US record in the Middle East is a record of bloodshed, imperial partition, colonial occupation, exploitation of resources, chemical weapons, coup…
“Polls show that an overwhelming majority of Jewish Israelis approve of the plan of action that the government is carrying out, rounding 50,000 non-Jewish Africans out of Israeli cities, into desert detention centers, and from there back to Africa.” Ethiopian-Israelis Protest Police Brutality, But Do Black Lives Matter in Israel If They’re Not Jews? Demonstrations by native-born Jewish Israeli citizens were met by violent crowd control methods perfected on Palestinians. By David Sheen / AlterNet http://www.alternet.org/world/ethiopian-israelis-protest-police-brutality-do-black-lives-matter-israel-if-theyre-not-jews May 4, 2015 JERUSALEM – NOV 20, 2014: Ethiopian Jewish women pray at the Sigd, in Jerusalem, Israel. The Sigd is an annual holiday of the Ethiopian Jews Photo Credit: RnDmS / Shutterstock.com The crowd swelled into an electric mass of over 1,000 dark-skinned youths, blocking city streets and demanding an end to the brutalities endured by their peers at the hands of Israeli security forces. A the protestors descended on the downtown core, Israeli border police used shock grenades, pressurized “skunk” water and tear gas to disperse the demonstrators. This could describe innumerable incidents of Israeli state violence against Palestinian protestors over the last 67 years. In this case, it also accurately describes the events that transpired on April 30, 2015 in Jerusalem, where day-long demonstrations by native-born Jewish Israeli citizens were met by violent crowd control methods perfected on Palestinians. When Jews express their grievances with the Israel government, police prefer not to employ biological weapons against them, if for no other reason than the use of gas against Jews can evoke…
If you don’t see whole thing, see the last minute, and you will get the Illuminati Zionist programming straight up. It is simply amazing. I agree with video producer, it is suicide. It will lead to strife or culture-cide or more likely both. Note the statistics on London. See the last minute. Key word is “transformation”. Whenever I hear this word now, I know I’m dealing with a programmed globalist. Also note that the video includes racial violence that has nothing to do with refugees and is therefore incendiary. The quotes are incredible. Ray, I don’t know if you’ve yet discovered it, but the film has been taken down. Meanwhile, a friend who couldn’t get it sent this link, the background. This so-called refugee event is anything but about “refugees.” It is nothing but a forced invasion to neutralize the races, finally realized part of a long-planned agenda.

THIS IS A RESEARCH PAGE FOR THOSE SEEKING CONNECTION OF ROTHSCHILDS AND ROCKEFELLERS In my books I call this association the Roth-efellers. Keep track of names Jacob Schiff, William Stillman (First National Bank) and Rockefeller. http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/Perspectives_1/article_8918.shtml ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://truedemocracy.net/hj32/21.html “Thus the ancient calumny of John D. Rockefeller as a man obsessed by greed (a category in which he has plenty of company) obscures the act that from the day the Rothschilds began to finance his march towards a total oil monopoly in the United States from their coffers at the National City Bank of Cleveland, Rockefeller was never an independent power, nor does any department of the Rockefeller Syndicate operate as an independent power.” …”However much of the Rockefeller wealth may be attributed to old John D.’s rapacity and ruthlessness, its origins are indubitably based in his initial financing from the National City Bank of Cleveland, which was identified in Congressional reports as one of the three Rothschild banks in the United States and by his later acceptance of the guidance of Jacob Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb & Company, who had been born in the Rothschild house in Frankfort and was now the principal Rothschild representative (but unknown as such to the public) in the United States. With the seed money from the National City Bank of Cleveland, old John D. Rockefeller soon laid claim to the title of “the most ruthless American.” It is more than likely that it was this quality which persuaded the Rothschilds to back him….
Pedro, Your ideas of retirement are a pipe dream. Please do not expect a pension to continue indefinitely for Judy’s teaching. Social Security is already bankrupt. (read it all) I feel you should gather some economic statistics and have a serious sit down with your children. With those that “get it”, you might plan something with them as an extended family. We need to end our lives in service, and forget the idea of retirement. Retirement (comfort heaven and “free time”) will not exist. We need to shift our expectations IMO. I feel you are open enough to examine if this is true. Here is some economic data showing we are in a spiral of debt. In the 2015 report of the Social Security and Medicare Board of Trustees they state very plainly: “Social Security as a whole as well as Medicare cannot sustain projected long-run program costs…”, and that the government should be “giving the public adequate time to prepare.” Ray

I am reposting this excellent article. It is important that you the reader forget any paper assets, as their worth is unsustainable, and that you invest in farm land, tools, food storage, water purification and any thing your family might need to make it through this end of the bubble we call progress. This is not doom and gloom. This is rebalancing with nature and the Earth and living sustainably again. Waking up ultimately means changing our lifestyle. China And The New World Disorder by Nicole Foss, Aug 4, 2015 (attribute is unclear on the Automatic Earth site… here is URL ) Nicole Foss: Our consistent theme here at the Automatic Earth since its inception has been that we are facing a very powerful deflationary depression, following on from the bursting of an epic financial bubble. What we have witnessed in our three decades of expansion and inflation is nothing short of a monetary supernova, and that period has been the just culmination of a much larger upward trend going back many decades at least. We have lived through a credit hyper-expansion for the record books, with an unprecedented generation of excess claims to underlying real wealth. In doing so we have created the largest financial departure from reality in human history. Bubbles are not new – humanity has experienced them periodically going all the way back to antiquity – but the novel aspect of this one, apart from its scale, is its occurrence at a point when we have…
