Commentary: Oh Lord, complaining about how short this video is???
Folks
don't even watch videos that last longer than 6 minutes, and no way in hell did
he help Muslims considering how many of them got killed by his drones. I do say
he could have done more for the veterans, but we all can. Got a bunch of stuff
you ain't using? Got an empty house that no one is in? Got some food to share?
Go visit a vet in the hospital. Ban all fireworks displays!! Take a vet to
Lunch on a monthly basis.
We can
always find fault, but what are we doing about it?
So,
now we have Trump and we shall see that we are talking about the same coin,
just the flip side, it matters not what puppet is in the White House, it
matters who his handlers/backers/bankers/corporations/shadowgovernment that are
pulling his strings people. Let's get over ourselves, let's stop being divided
down party lines, let's look at the BIG GIANT ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. We are
being lead like sheep to the slaughter, and as we fight among ourselves and
kill each other off in the process, there will be fewer sheep for them to
slaughter.

How the FL Shooting Will Be Used To Bolster War, Usurp Freedom, And Create More Terrorism
by Claire Bernish
After
September 11, 2001, discarding freedom and personal liberties in the name of
security became standard operating procedure following a tragedy, and Friday’s
mass shooting at the airport in Fort Lauderdale has not deviated from the new
Orwellian norm.
Officials
say Esteban Santiago arrived in Florida on a flight from Alaska and proceeded
to the baggage claim area, where he pulled a firearm from his checked bag and
opened fire — killing five people and wounding eight.
“He eventually retrieved a firearm and began
indiscriminately shooting,” Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel told the press Friday. “This cowardly, heinous act
resulted in the deaths of five people.”
While the incident unfolded, before total casualties and
injuries had been counted, corporate media presstitutes championed in live
time increased security measures and tighter strictures on gun laws
— except for TSA agents, whom, some intoned, should now be required to carry
firearms in the performance of their duties.
We have
been conditioned for this. Fustian politicians assume an inept undervaluation
of rights — and a careless lack of vigilance under color of fear — in the minds
of the somnambulant masses will allow the implementation of new rights-crushing
legislation.
On cue, the Wall Street Journal nearly
immediately published an article citing Jeff Price, an aviation security expert and
aviation-management professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver, who —
without a hint of irony — asserted,
I think we can expect to see more of what we’ve
seen every time we have one of these incidents at an airport — better-armed,
better-trained police and a surge in law-enforcement visibility.
Because terrorism. Because mass shootings. Most simply, because guns.
Guns, many pols and gun-control enthusiasts will tell you, create calamity — nothing else — and the Second
Amendment is an antiquated anomaly to be relegated to the already overflowing
dustbin of constitutional rights.
These politicians will further exploit fear of The Next Tragedy to install new checkpoints, more scanners, appended
means to verify identity, and additional TSA agents — already
proven wholly ineffective, if not derelict —
to molest, grope, and harass anyone daring to enter an airport.
Travel, they’ll say, is a dangerous affair — and must be policed
accordingly.
No matter Santiago has been deemed mentally
disturbed — one person, a lone shooter, who
chose a divergent method for enmity — now that someone has undertaken a mass
shooting in this manner, terrorists
paid attention and gleaned fresh plans,
they’ll say.
This
snark is in no way reductive to the abhorrent nature of the indiscriminate
shooting, nor to the mourning which indeed the country must now collectively
experience; but right now is precisely the time for acute attentiveness — not
fear-induced myopia as has become epidemic after such incidents.
A more rational response surprisingly came from one
legislator, Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Greg Steube, who is sponsoring
a bill to eliminate gun-free zones in Florida — a necessary measure now that
the state has experienced three horrific mass shootings.
“My first thoughts and prayers are with the families of the
victims,” Steube said Friday, quoted
byUSA Today. “But this goes back to the fact why I’ve been working
against gun-free zones for the past three years.
Gun-free zones don’t prevent criminals from
breaking the law and killing innocent victims. All that law did was prevent
law-abiding citizens who have a concealed-carry permit from carrying their
firearm in defense of themselves and others.
Stricture
and prohibition spark black markets — if someone intends to do harm using a
firearm, they will find it. That applies equally to all mass shooters — whether
mentally unstable, paranoid xenophobe, or religious radical — if guns are the
intended tool for an attack, oppressive gun laws only stop law-abiding
civilians from killing whatever malicious wingnut next begins shooting random
people in a crowd.
Tightening the reins on suffocating security procedures and positioning additional law enforcement officers in airports also
won’t stop criminals of any motivation from discerning a creative method to
thwart remaining deficiencies. These repeated clamp-downs only restrict our
ability to travel freely — they aren’t preventing the next attack or quashing
terrorism as politicians claim.
Fear is
a potent manipulator — and the government counts on pulling the blindfold of
dread over everyone’s eyes in the wake of catastrophe to erase yet another
protected freedom from the Bill of Rights.
This
time, don’t let it happen — don’t be fooled into obliging lawmakers whose only
motive is to use death as a Police State weapon against all of us.
This are
article examines three critical aspects of a false flag event and then applies
what is known, and typical of a false flag event to the murder of five Dallas
police officers earlier in the week. By the way, the above picture strongly
suggests that there is a lot more to the official narrative than the public is
being told.
The
three areas of concern are:
Rehearsal of certain aspects of the event by
either First Responser, LEO, or both.
If the
false flag event consists of an assassination(s), the narrative includes
acting alone, the “discovery” of a diary or a mainfesto which states the
murderous intentions of the “patsy”, and the labeling of the so-called
perpetrator as being insane so the act can be referred to as a random act
of insane violence so the subject of a conspiracy never enters the
discussion by the media and the authorities investigating the crime.
Disguise
the purpose of the event.
Rehearsal
for the Event
History
is replete for rehearsal of a false flag event. In some cases, the event flows
from the drill/rehearsal. This practice make s a great deal of sense, because
complex agendas need rehearsal in order to produce the desired effect, which is
always the opposite of the truth.
The
following events represents a history of major false flag attack in which there
were drills preceding the attack. This list is not exhaustive and it not
intended to be. Rather, it shows a distinctive pattern in which the event was
preceded by a drill closely associated with the nature of the false-flag event
Oklahoma City
9/11
The Estonia Catastrophe
The Oslo Shooting
London Subway Bombing
Virginia Tech Shooting
Taft Union High School Drill
gone live
Boston Marathon Bombing
In the case of the Dallas
shooting, we see the same type of drill preparation only a few days prior
to the murdering of five Dallas police officers
FROM CBS DFW: “The sights and sounds are scary, but not
dangerous. Members of law enforcement, along with fire and EMS personnel
conducted an active shooter exercise at a North Texas high school on
Wednesday.
Emergency vehicles could be seen responding with lights and sirens
at Argyle High School. Local hospitals also participated in the
disaster drill.
The event includes realistic scenarios that have actors
playing victims and officers using fake gun rounds.

disaster drill.
The event includes realistic scenarios that have actors
playing victims and officers using fake gun rounds.
Argyle ISD Police Chief Paul Cairney said officials are taking
every consideration and realize a shooting event can happen in a small
town. “We’ve been thinking about that. But one of the things that we need
to make sure that we do, if something were to happen, is we need to have the
whole response coordinated and coordinated well, because we don’t want to have
anymore people that are hurt,” he said.”
The
Dallas event definitely fits the profile of so many other false flag events
with regard to a preceding drills which comes close mimicking the actual event.
If this
were the only similarity to so many false flag events, one could argue that
this is just a tragic coincidence. However, the evidence trail which strongly
suggest that this fits previous false flag events, almost perfectly.
There is
no question that the rehearsal aspect of a false flag event was satisfied in
this case.
When the
False Flag Involves Assassination, the Following Characteristics are Present
When
direct assassinations are involved we see the following narrative:
Lone gunman with no second shooter in order to
avoid allegations of a conspiracy.
A
discovered diary or manifesto declaring the intentions of the lone gunman.
In each of the following cases, the perpetrator (i.e. patsy) had a
diary/manifesto stating their murderous intentions and the target of the
hostility.
JFK assassination
RFK
assassination
Martin
Luther King
In 9/1l,
the discovery of Mohamed Atta’s passport was
miraculously found, despite the fact that neither of the two planes had
their black boxes found. But the government found Atta’s passport. Swamp
land in Florida anyone? The found passport served the purpose of a diary
with stated terrorist intentions, for placing the blame on Muslim
terrorists, to cover up the fact that this was a false flag event.
In regard to
the most recent terror event, the shooter has been identified and he has,
you guessed, a manifesto with stated intentions to go along with a
discovered document on military strategy tactics. In regard to the
most recent terror event, the shooter has been identified and he has, you
guessed, a manifesto with stated intentions to go along with a discovered
document on military strategy tactics. Micah Xavier Johnson went on a shooting rampage
against Dallas police, officials said Friday.
“Investigators have discovered bomb-making
materials, rifles and a “personal journal of combat tactics” in the home
of the black former Army reservist who is identified as Micah Xavier
Johnson, 25, a Dallas-area resident, was a “loner” with no criminal history who
“wanted to kill white people” and “especially white officers,” said police, who
are still investigating whether he acted alone in perpetrating the
deadliest day for law enforcement since the Sept. 11 terror attacks in 2001.”
Please note that Johnson was not a man of
many means. Where did he get the money to acquire such a vast amount of
military hardware? This is strongly reminiscent of the Aurora Batman
Shooting for the exact same reasons.
The
Purpose of the False Flag Event
I have
been writing this for years, the following order will be followed to take world
into a third world war in which the goal is to cull the population by
90%. The people don’t want war, they have to be convinced by false flag events.
The following three steps are now in play and will culminate in World War III
The creation of domestic false flag terror
events (e.g. the Dallas police shootings designed to start a race war), in
which the government, for the good of the people, must step in and
declare martial law.
The
elimination of all political and religious dissent under the martial law.
This means gun confiscations and roundups (e.g. rehearsed by Jade Helm.
When goals
one and two occur, World War III will commence and the New World Order
will complete its mission of the elimination of all national sovereignty.
We are
are present in stage one moving quickly toward stage two.
NB Commentary: Sometimes you just have to step
in there and say your piece in the face of total ignorance coming from folks
who set themselves up as being one who is in the know. I watched this video up until the 1:02:30
mark when he and his guest took a serious turn for the worse in reporting on
this Dallas thing and in particular, reporting on what they perceive is
"up" with the inclusion of Micah X Jackson in this scenario.
You can watch the
video from this point to see what I am ranting about. This dude took me all the
way back to my college years when I had to straighten some folks out about the
"Black Experience." Most white folks don't have a clue… and in 2016…
it don't make no sense. My comments are
listed below the video.
After reading my complaint about their video, they left this message and removed the video."New World Agenda commented on a video on YouTube.
Shared publicly - Yesterday 1:11 AM 2016-07-24
I'm sorry Nana. Never would I want to offend people (or get things wrong). I pulled the podcast. It would be best to have someone of your knowledge and experience to be on the show to give us the much needed information. We try our best... sometimes it's difficult to interpret what is going on in the black communities. Thanks for taking the time to explain. All the best!"
Okay, I listened to
your pod-cast up until you got to 1:02:30 Mark when you started to talk about
the New Black Panthers.
Here is where I have
to say your journalism took a nose dive.
You clearly have no
idea what the differences are between a Black Muslim, a Black Panther, a member of the New Black Panther Party, a member of the Black Lives Matter Movement or
even what Professor Griff stands for.
Just like you cannot
bundle all white supremacists activists groups or patriots into the same pile,
you cannot put all of these and many other groups into the same pile either.
I suggest you find
another source of inquiry besides Wikipedia which has been known to report
false information.. sometimes reporting events as soon as they happen with full
details. Where do they get their details from if not from some insider?
One of the things
that is very, very annoying about white guys like you and your guest is that
you appear to be intelligent but you have no clue about what you are talking
about when it comes to Black folks and their issues.
For one thing, many
African Americans use the red, black and green colors and most of the
individuals who use them are NOT militant or part of a break away society. In
fact, Muammar Qaddafi used the same image.
FYI Red = Blood,
Black = color, and Green = land. It is a symbol of solidarity among African
Americans who identify with their contribution and heritage in this country and
around the world. In fact, you will see these colors in many African flags,
just like you see red, white and blue in a lot of European flags.
Also, the fist of
power is a symbol of solidarity. It means united we are powerful, it means
unity, it does not mean any of the BS you two are talking about.
The outfit he has on
is called a "dashiki" and it DOES NOT AND IS NOT worn by the Black Panthers or the New Black
Panther Members. It is worn by folks who wish to identify with their African
heritage along with other African print garments, Again your ignorance is
glaring!
You are clearly
uninformed and maybe you should get your facts straight before you steer your
listeners down the wrong path.
I find it quite
hypocritical for you to mock the young
woman because she did not eloquently express herself like a Malcolm X when you
have someone like Bush for the president of the United states who barely made
it out of high school. I don't know how you feel about Bush, but your comments
and mockery is the stuff of disdain and are reprehensible in this type of
journalism, unless you are going to line up with the other troll Youtube
channels. What side of the New World Order Agenda are you??
I do know about the
difference and if you want to know more, than you should discuss this with
someone who does know the difference.
Your comments is why
Black folks cringe at your attempts to speak about us when you are so
unenlightened about who we are, how we feel and what we need to be a part of
this country.
Maybe your ancestors
mocked the so-called founding fathers who had the same desire to have their own
land and be out from under the hand of tyranny as many Africans in this country
have faced for 400 years. You all got your freedom, right??
In conclusion, if
you are about making change in this world, and steering away from the
ridiculous psyops that are being played on the American people of all
ethnicities, please do your homework before you speak. Otherwise, you will
sound ignorant, and it's the ignorance of white folks like yourself, that make
it hard for Black folks to see any advantage of aligning themselves with you or
accepting what you have to say as viable and worth taking seriously.
No, I am not a part
of any of those movements, and most African Americans are not, but for you to
lump them all together without a single idea about any of them based on a RBG
flag; his attire and the "fist of Power" is highly insulting and misleading.
I suggest you erase the entire part, because you obviously do not know what you
are talking about.
Let me also add,
that I find it interesting that you are quite comfortable with this man, this
black man or any Black Man, joining the US military, going to another country and killing people
who did nothing to him. These same black men come home to fewer rights and
freedoms that the US military is supposedly trying to make sure others have. I
did not hear you mock the insanity of that notion, but seem to appreciate the
fact that he was in the military.. yeah, he fought for "his" country?
But when that same man finds out that his country will not fight for him, and
like you white folks, who feel the same way, somehow there is a difference and
now the request for equal rights and human rights for black folks, no matter
how they are expressed is laughable to you.
Let me tell you
something, dear Mr. White Man, ain't nothing funny about when you're coming
home from your US military duty; with PTSD and have to face the stark reality
that you may be shot and/or killed by a Police officer on a city street because
you are a Black Man in America!
All my life I loved fireworks. I would go to the 4th of July display every year that I could. I would lie down on the ground and just take it all in. Then I read about the impact that they have on some veterans. I stopped going.
I think that veterans should be given every single thing they need to make it back to civilian life and then given anything they ask for. They go off and fight a rich man's war and come back to very poor treatment and little consideration for their PTSD. High rates of domestic abuse, drugs and alcohol use, homelessness, poverty and suicide should not even be mentioned in the same sentence when speaking of a Veteran.
I am totally against the barbarism of war, but if these folks are going to go out there and cause all kinds of devastation to themselves and others for the benefit of the elite, then the elite should take care of them to the utmost degree!! Any country that does not take care of its veterans is truly degenerate and completely lacking of empathy, gratitude or compassion. And that's what I have to say about that!!
I do not want to appear disrespectful or ungrateful, but should we meet on the street one day, do say "Hello," or "Fine day" or other such nicety, but please do not thank me for "my service" as a United States Marine. I make this request because my service, as you refer to it, was basically, either to train to become a killer or to actually kill people and blow shit up.
Now, that is not something for which a person should be proud nor thanked. In fact, it is regrettable, and for me a source of guilt and shame, something I will have to live with for the rest of my life, as the past cannot ever be undone. So, when you thank me for my service, it disturbs me ... a lot. First off, it brings to mind my wasted youth and lost innocence, and the horrible and unnecessary deaths of good friends and comrades. Second, it reminds me of my responsibility and culpability for the pain and suffering I caused innocent people, again something I would rather forget, but cannot. Third, it reinforces my belief that you have absolutely no idea about the nature and reality of the wars in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan, because if you did, you would understand that thanks are inappropriate. Fourth, it reminds me that many of those who feel the need to offer thanks were apathetic about - or even supportive of - the war, while they refuse to participate themselves or did little or nothing to end it. And lastly, I have to admit that I doubt the sincerity of these expressions of supposed gratitude, as "Thank you for your service" is just something to say not because you care about what I did or sacrificed, but only to demonstrate your supposed good character, or patriotism and/or "support" for members of the military and veterans.
In making this request not to be thanked for my service, I am, of course, expressing only my opinion, and, perhaps, my idiosyncrasy, and I make no claim to be speaking for other veterans. I would wager, however, that many, perhaps even most, who have experienced the horror of war and have the courage and presence of mind to think about and evaluate what the war they served in was truly about would understand and probably concur with this request. Those veterans, however, who may not agree, who cling to the mythology of heroism, glory, honor and nobility of war, do so in large measure from fear that acknowledging war's reality would somehow diminish their sacrifice and the sacrifices of those whose lives were lost. Perhaps understandably, they view such sacrifices and loss as difficult enough to live with when they had value and purpose, and as intolerable if they were misguided and unnecessary. To these brothers and sisters, I would offer the following questions and observations for them to ponder.
First, what was accomplished by your sacrifice and by the waste of lives and treasure in Vietnam, in Iraq and in Afghanistan? Where is the honor, glory and nobility in killing and dying for greed, incompetence, and paranoia? Second, the mythology you cling to for comfort is a tool of political leaders to make war palatable, to garner support for their militarism and abandonment of diplomacy. It is what motivates future idealistic, perhaps naive, young people to "heed the call," to seek honor and glory, by enlisting in the military to fight for a cause they have been deceived into believing is right, just and necessary, but which is, in reality, a string of wars for corporate greed, power and hegemony. All who are touched by war are tainted and require readjustment, perhaps even rehabilitation, but in order to truly come home from war, to make the perilous journey of healing, one must face the realities of one's own war experience head on, as no healing is possible from fantasy, myth, rationalization and distortion of truth.
So, in the future, if you really insist on thanking me for something, do not thank me for
the eight years I spent as a Marine, but for the 45 or so years following my discharge from the military that I have spent as an activist fighting for human rights and social justice and to end the insanity of war. Frankly, however, I would prefer that you just say hello, or fine day or other such nicety. You see, my activism all these years warrants no praise or merit, as it is not something I choose to do. Rather, I do it because I must, perhaps as penance for my culpability for the sacrilege of war. And if you truly want to demonstrate your good character, patriotism, and support for the troops and veterans, rather than merely mouth meaningless expressions of gratitude for something you don't truly understand or care much about, do something meaningful and real. Do what is truly in the interest of this nation and of those victimized by war.
Make some demands.
"how can we still have troops in other countries and we celebrate with "bombs"... it would be lovely if we decided not to do them in honor to our troops... That would be a great way to say THANK YOU!"
Demand, for example, an immediate end to the corporate takeover of our "democracy" and to the undue influence of the military-industrial-Congressional complex. Demand sanity in Pentagon spending and a reallocation of finite resources to people-focused programs such as health care, education and jobs rather than to killing and destruction. Demand an immediate end to wars for corporate profit, greed, power and hegemony. Demand that we adhere to the Constitution and to international law. Demand accountability for those who make war easily and care more for wealth, profit and power than for national interest or for the welfare of their fellow human beings. And finally, demand the troops be brought home now, and that they be adequately treated and cared for when they return. So, should we meet on the street one day, do say Hello, or Fine day, and as you talk to me about your efforts to make this country and the world a better and more peaceful place in which to live, I would be happy to thank you for your service.
