Big Brother’s surveillance is making privacy a thing of the past.


Many of us have known about Echelon and the NSA data collection perpetrated on US citizens for a very long time, but it has been kept quiet and is less well understood in the general population.  As the news has finally revealed with the Snowden leak of NSA using PRISM which intercepts, monitors and stores every email, text message and phone call you initiate or receive in effect surveillance of every type of communication in which you engage which is being collected and stored by the government, it becomes increasingly important to do all we are able to protect our privacy and communications.

For many, knowledge of this surveillance and invasion of our privacy has been occurring for a very long time, yet it is now becoming well known to the general public through the mainstream media.  Several years ago, I backed away from the network administration profession, rather than dealing with the increasingly problematic hacker issue, at that time I entertained the idea of using encryption in all of my communications, however, it was cumbersome and many of my contacts at the time had issues with their ability to use their pass key to un-lock the messages.  I was not doing anything much of a remarkable nature, so I dropped the project.  Now however, with the advent of the Patriot Act and the expansion of the terms and definitions of what the government considers what constitutes being labeled a potential domestic terrorist, such as anyone who is suspicious of centralized federal authority, respects individual liberty, pays for purchases in cash especially large purchases, homeschools their children, owns a gun, supports the 2nd Amendment, Bill of Rights or Constitution, owns gold and silver, and once labeled as such the potential ramifications are severe, without the constitutional protections we all believe are our right, as well as the increased levels of surveillance, it appears that the time has come to revisit that concept and to use encryption in most all of my communications.

 There has been a saying, with which I personally disagree, that goes something like, “since I am not doing anything wrong, I don’t have to worry”.  The fallacy in this statement is that there are millions of “statutes and codes” that have been brought into effect on all levels of government from the feds all the way on down to the community level.  On a minute by minute basis, it is virtually impossible to go through the day without “breaking” one or more  of these many  “laws” without any knowledge of being out of compliance of these manmade “laws”  In truth there is only One real law, the law of the Cosmos or the Creator which is “do no harm” yet man has created statutes, codes and other directives in order to run society and to extract financial resources from the populace in order to maintain their function of control.

The concept that major software developers and online companies have given access to their customers private data through PRISM in cooperation with NSA spying is at best chilling… Among those implicated are Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, Facebook, Apple, Skype YouTube and others who are also involved with “back doors” to their software allowing this access.

Now that this has become clearly an issue for many, I would like to invite you to at least consider adopting a few protective measures… using encryption for your communications, and privacy in your financial transactions is key to not only protecting your hard earned assets, but your privacy.

Other sources substantiate this issue:  Here are some comments from sources that reiterate the value and importance of adopting some safeguards to your privacy.

America’s a total surveillance society. It’s longstanding. It persists lawlessly. It’s out-of-control. It threatens personal freedoms. It shows police state contempt for what’s right.

Free societies don’t do these things. In America, it’s standard practice. Corporate giants cooperate complicitly. They profit handsomely. Who said crime doesn’t pay?

Separately, RT headlined ”Millions in US tax dollars go to Big Data for wiretap capabilities.”

US telecom and Internet giants profit handsomely. They do so from spying lawlessly on customers.

Rep. Edward Markey (D-MA) said AT & T charges NSA a $325 “activation fee.” It does so for each separate wiretap. A daily $10 charge to maintain adds more to bottom line profits.

Verizon charges $775 for the first month per wiretap – $500 monthly fees follow.

Telecom officials claim they’re not involved for profit. Human rights groups think otherwise.

According to RT, the “average wiretap” costs US taxpayers “$50,000.” Telecom and Internet giants cash in handsomely. They’ve been doing it for years.

Nine or more major online companies cooperate with lawless NSA spying. Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, Facebook, Apple, Skype, YouTube and others are involved.

They do so through NSA’s Prism. It gives the agency access to search histories, emails, file transfers and live chats. It’s gotten directly from US provider servers. Doing so facilitates mass surveillance.

Google claims, “From time to time, people allege that we have created a government ‘back door’ into our systems, but Google does not have a back door for the government to access private user data.”

Google’s closely allied with Bilderberg movers and shakers. CEO Eric Schmidt’s a regular conference attendee. He believes privacy is quaint and out-of-date. He’s got big plans. He wants Google transformed into “the ultimate Big Brother.”

A Microsoft statement said:

“When we upgrade or update products we aren’t absolved from the need to comply with existing or future lawful demands.”

Officials claim they provide customer data “only in response to government demands and we only ever comply with orders for requests about specific accounts or identifiers.”

According to the Guardian, “internal NSA newsletters, marked top secret, suggest the co-operation between the intelligence community and the companies is deep and ongoing.”

Snowden’s new revelations “come from the NSA’s Special Source Operations (SSO) division.” He calls them the agency’s “crown jewels.”

They’re “responsible for all programs aimed at US communications systems through corporate partnerships such as Prism.”

Since 2011, NSA worked closely with Microsoft. It gained easy access to Skype. Personal audio and video communications can be monitored. Skype has about 663 million global users.

From the post of  Montague Keen July 21, 2013: 

The Cabal has everything to lose, so it is not surprising that they will use every tool in their vast armoury to try to hold on to control. If they were not losing the battle they would not be so desperate.

Everyone needs to be on guard

Ego’s are massaged and people become as clay in the hands of the manipulators. They become easy prey. Subsequently, it becomes difficult for these people to believe that they could possibly be mistaken and so the Cabal wins yet another soul.

Feds tell Web firms to turn over user account passwords by Declan McCullagh

Secret demands mark escalation in Internet surveillance by the federal government through gaining access to user passwords, which are typically stored in encrypted form.

The U.S. government has demanded that major Internet companies divulge users' stored passwords, which represent an escalation in surveillance techniques that has not previously been disclosed.

If the government is able to determine a person's password, which is typically stored in encrypted form, the credential could be used to log in to an account to peruse confidential correspondence or even impersonate the user. "I've certainly seen them ask for passwords," said one Internet industry source who spoke on condition of anonymity. "We push back."

A second person who has worked at a large Silicon Valley company confirmed that it received legal requests from the federal government for stored passwords. Some of the government orders demand not only a user's password but also the encryption algorithm and the so-called salt, according to a person familiar with the requests. A salt is a random string of letters or numbers used to make it more difficult to reverse the encryption process and determine the original password. Other orders demand the secret question codes often associated with user accounts.

“May the 4th be with you”…


On this day of May 4, 2013 “May the 4th be with you”…

 According to scientists, harsh austerity policies brought on by the financial crisis in Europe and the United States cause serious health problems.

In the UK 10,000 families have been pushed to the edge of poverty and homelessness by the austerity budget. And in the United States as many as five million people have been cut off from the healthcare system since the recession, because they simply can’t afford it.

Along that line of reasoning, David Stuckler, who has a book coming out soon related to his research, makes some rather astute comments on the hidden costs of the austerity/poverty/economic crisis, and how humanity may react, especially if there is a feeling of hopelessness or invalidation of their worth as human beings.

So far Europe’s leaders have been in denial about the human cost of the austerity policies that have been pursued across Europe and pursued in North America, with the sequester recently passed.”

“What we need to do is take into account the health effects of economic policies. Had austerity been run like any other drug trial it would’ve been discontinued because of its deadly side effects.”

Stuckler states in this op ed “US, European leaders in denial about human cost of austerity” which you can find at:’ http://rt.com/op-edge/austerity-death-health-stuckler-605/:

Austerity in healthcare is a false economy as the immediate savings are outweighed by the huge spending required to cover the damage to people’s heath in the future, Dr. David Stuckler of Oxford University told RT.

Scientists at Oxford and Stanford Universities have brought to light the negative effect austerity measures have on health. They say spending cuts and mass lay-offs across Europe and North America are fueling a spike in suicide and depression. The academics behind the study believe the global financial crisis has caused as many as 10,000 to take their own lives.

Stuckler, who is leading the research into the impact of austerity economics on public health, says that health and education are the best channels to speed up the economic recovery, therefore cuts in the those sectors should be avoided.

RT: According to your theory countries that did not pursue austerity cuts, like Iceland, should be doing much better in health terms than those that did, is that the case?

DS: That’s a very good point because Iceland suffered the worst banking crisis in history – all of its biggest banks failed and its debt jumped to over 800 per cent of GDP. But its people voted against austerity and instead shored up support in its health system. No one lost access to healthcare and, in fact, this country, which was once the happiest society in the world, again in 2011 was ranked as the happiest society in the world. 


Elsewhere in the news, from a front page article in the local news yesterday, “Sad statistics: Baby boomers lead rise in U.S. suicide rates”.  It stated that the most pronounced increases were seen among men in their 50s, a group in which the suicide rates jumped by nearly 50%.  It goes on to say that there may e something related to their life issues and choices that make a difference, but even more importantly that it may stem…from the economic downturn over the past decade.  Historically suicide rates rise during times of financial stress and economic setbacks.  Aside from the other factors of the need to cope with the stress of caring for aging parents and still providing financial support to adult children, the boomers had great expectations of what their lives might look like, but things did not work out that way for them.

So just exactly what is going on here?

The missing element in my opinion:  NUTRITION

What is missing from these news items, is that the nutritional quality of the food being consumed today is sadly lacking in the necessary and required nutrients to sustain and maintain not only cellular/physical health, but mental and emotional health as well.  We are also being exposed to toxic chemicals in the air, food and water, and this places a huge burden to the immune system and has an cost to the body in being unable to maintain healthy, positive emotions and mental outlook.  Added to that, the cost of food is increasing (in spite of the spin from the government that there is “very little inflation”) If you are paying attention when going to buy food/groceries, it is very apparent that this is simply untrue.

It has been said that the most obvious difference between poverty and the upper middle class is the quality of the food eaten.

I agree, and would add a personal observation…

With the amount of recent attention placed on GMO foods, obesity, and general malaise in the populace, it appears that there could be a further correlation between the increased suicide rates and the quality of nutrition.

Let me explain.  Recently, it became very clear to me that I was “cutting corners” with my own nutrition.  I did not want to consume any food containing GMOs, and many things that were available to me in the “standard” grocery store produce section, just did not seem to have any viable life force remaining in them, and the Organic section items were so expensive, mostly, they just did not fit into my food budget…let alone any organic, grass fed, free range meat or poultry products… these were so far away from what I could afford to spend, I just stopped looking at them.  I would read labels and anything that I was unsure of as I would just pass by.

When I decided I was going to eliminate gluten and the non organic and GMO foods from my diet,  I had an organic garden, several producing fruit trees and a few chickens that gave me more eggs than I could eat, so I stopped spending  money at the grocery store for anything other than organic coffee, local honey, and organic dairy products that were produced from cows not given the rBGH (rBST) growth hormone. 

The weather was very unsettled for a couple of years, and this added the pestilence factor, fleas and mange for my poor dog, fleas for the cats, and in my house and carpets…To add to the mix, the animals were so uncomfortable that their distress was keeping me awake more of the night than I was sleeping.  I did not want to use toxic substances to get rid of the pests, so I resorted to every natural remedy I could find, and each one would provide some relief – for a time, but then the little “buggars” would return and it was back to square one.  I was making my own pet foods from veggies from my garden and raw meats, eggs from the chickens, but as time progressed, even that was more costly than I could manage, so I would buy the best pet foods I could afford, grain free and with mainly venison, turkey, chicken and/or lamb. Finally, I got a book from a naturopathic veterinarian on feeding raw meat to dogs, that it is their natural diet and what their bodies are designed for, began this protocol with my dog and saw immediate positive results.  Seeing how important diet was for my animals, yet my own diet being marginal at best was a wake-up call.

I tried to eat mostly my own garden/orchard produced foods and they were really good and enjoyable. This was fine for a time, until, due to a couple of “unproductive” garden and orchard years due to weather and encroaching fir trees and gophers my garden basically failed, but I just could not make myself purchase the produce at the grocery store, (it did not look alive) and due to health concerns was not physically able to walk around and buy produce from the local farmers market.  The chickens began to die off of old age, and with a move planned, it was not the time to start a new batch of chicks so eventually the eggs stopped coming, now I only have one hen left and she has stopped laying eggs.  Little by little I would cut out this or that because it was not coming out of the garden or I did not want to buy it from the store, and eventually I began to actually lose interest in eating much of anything. Then other financial issues came up, and slowly I began limiting what I was consuming and was attempting to live on nutritional supplements, coffee with honey and organic half & half and cheese as my daily diet…with an occasional meal of rice and garlic or beans and cheese, and for the big treat with added organic butter or sour cream…sometimes in the spring asparagus or some broccoli if it looked edible.  I was bored with eating, and did not want to be trying new things, mainly because of concerns over “GMO’s, irradiated produce, toxic chemicals in the food, gluten, etc., etc., etc.” to say nothing of the costs… so the result was depression, lack of energy and malaise.

The realization hit, the mega- realization finally came …It is no wonder that my body is not feeling energetic, and especially not getting any healthier.  My nutrition, although relatively clean did not have enough of what my cells needed to make new healthy cells, their only source of building materials was to try to salvage what they could from those dying, diseased or aging cells that were being replaced and the poor nutrition I was getting to make new cells, but certainly not…the optimum that my body needed to create new perfectly balanced cells.  And as for the mineral content of my food, it was practically nonexistent…

I determined I need to feed myself better… so began eating more greens, mostly organic salads with grated carrots and beets, and of course salad dressing… only to discover that my two favorite salad dressings included soybean oil… so they are no longer an option, as most of the soybeans being grown are GMO, so now it is make my own dressings… which I can do, but was being lazy.  Now I am more carefully reading the labels, even though this means I have to pull out my reading glasses in the store to check the ingredients of EVERYTHING!!! Anything questionable is put back, which makes for a lot more attention and time, but necessary for me at least. I am going to the local health food stores more, but of course their products cost more than conventional stores.  I even bought a cookbook for making gluten free breads – gathering the ingredients required is costly, but the freedom to be able to have a “bread” treat on occasion is a big plus.   I started consuming liquid vitamins in a juice form (more available to be utilized and easier to assimilate) another added cost, but am dropping some of the vitamins in pill form as a compensation, and that have muscle tested as no longer being required.

Someone I was in communication with mentioned the problem of soil depletion of mineral content, of which I was well aware, but this person also was talking about trace minerals and a source to obtain them, These have 72 trace minerals including all of the ones we all are familiar with, plus all of these other ones that are extremely difficult to obtain in our foods.  I bought some as quickly as I could find them, started taking them daily, and noticed a difference within a week.

The long and short of this is, that I am slowly beginning to see some results, feeling more positive, a little more  energetic and healthier, just with an upgrade to my diet (The price is probably 3 to 4 times higher than before, but worth it.)

As people have fewer financial resources, and begin to cut back on things that are seemingly less essential, the one thing that in my opinion from my own personal experience is the most critical to keep is the quality of your nutrition.

What you don't know CAN hurt you......


What is being presented this time is from various alternative sources that are intended to help enhance your awareness of what is being done by the cabal & their minions in an attempt to keep us enslaved, unaware and broke...
What you don't know CAN hurt you......

If these agendas cause you to have anger, use it to put a stop to their plans... spread the word, when light is turned on, the dark is exposed and is dissipated, we do outnumber them even though they are accustomed to being "in control" their continued "false flag terror games" are becoming transparent, people are beginning to see through them and the plans which they use to generate the fear that they feed on to maintain control are starting to be exposed for what they are...

These articles are already posted on various sites as noted, and I will not attempt to re-write the information, it speaks for itself and is already well stated.

Geoengineering - We've Lost 20 Percent of The Sun's Rays In The Last Few Decades Alone
http://preventdisease.com/news/13/042213_Weve-Lost-20-Percent-of-The-Suns-Rays-Due-To-Geoengineering.shtml

 

The following are quoted from other sources as noted, statements that were written subsequent to one of the most recent false flag events - the Boston Marathon on 4/15/13. 

From:  Dr. Kevin Barrett, in his article from PressTV: Global awakening to false-flag terrorism, Copernican revolution

Virtually all terrorism is committed by governments.
Terrorism” means “using violence against civilians to create fear for political purposes.”

Who does that? Who has the motivation to do it?
Only governments.

False-flag terrorism is designed to make citizens willingly surrender their liberty, their money, their power, and even their children’s lives.
The global awakening to the ubiquity of false-flag terrorism is a Copernican revolution that overturns the old paradigms about the way societies are governed.

This “great awakening” offers us the chance to overthrow the old paradigm of rule by fear, and to work for a better world – a world of fearless people ruled by wisdom and compassion.
From: Ben Fulford:

Somebody has also placed a $1 billion bet on a major US stock market plunge this week in what may be a sign of foreknowledge of further major terrorist events, according to an MI5 source.
From: Montague Keen:

We watch the chaos in your world. The cabal is becoming careless in its desperation to hold control. Because people are now awake and aware, they cannot be fooled so easily anymore.
The American people have shown courage. They released the EVIDENCE of what they had just experienced and they refused to accept the official line about what they were told had happened in Boston. This is a great step forward in the pursuit of truth.

Wars are instigated to cull the population and to create wealth for those who control you.
Boston Marathon bombing was yet another false flag. It is now clear that the FBI and other cabal are clearly in a total spin because they know the public does not trust them

So the final thought I would leave you to ponder is this:
Remember to take a breath and remember who you are...be the love that you are... they can only do what we allow them to do, the last thing they want is for us to know who we are and how powerful we are as creator beings...

 Until next time,

2013 - Leaving the past illusions behind


As the economy becomes ever more unstable, the phone rings more with people wanting to enlist me in their latest money making scheme… my response is to Phonecrastinate: I just put off answering the phone until caller ID identifies the caller, and for those who are listed as “unknown” or “out of area”…well, if they do not want me to know who they are, I have no desire or time to speak with them…

These days, more and more the truth is being exposed, no thanks to the controlled media, but rather the freely flowing (at least for the moment) information on the internet.  Much of what is being shared in this post is the result what has been gathered and shared by many others, in an attempt to consolidate and bring it to the light for as many as may find this post.

Many of us have seen behind the false flag event of 9/11, and some of us have even made an attempt to engage our friends and acquaintances in discussion about some of the events that have been taking us down the narrow road slippery slope into further degradation of our liberties and freedom,  although it can be very frustrating when communication is blocked by a dearly held belief based upon the half truths spoon fed to the populace via the mainstream media and enforced with cognitive dissonance.

These few quotes address that problem quite succinctly:

“Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance” Albert Einstein

"First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you." attributed to Gandhi.

 

"All truth passes through 3 stages: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." - Arthur Schopenhauer

Any human being who has courage, intelligence, eyes to see, and a determination to express his power in uncompromising terms can now be redefined as a potential threat to the stability of society---if he criticizes the prevailing authority. A conscientious objector is someone who wants the right to terminate his association and support of an institution that disgusts him with the activities that are performed in his name and is appalled at what is done with the money extracted from him in taxes. As a conscientious objector, quite literally, someone who obeys their conscience rather than the “state edicts”, that person is vilified or to paraphrase the motto of the DHS (dept of homeland security… a phrase reminiscent of Nazi Germany) "See a rebel, say something."

But of late, … and actually worldwide, there is a newly emerging phenomenon that has been labeled “freedom fever”…

However, the United States, a nation that has been constantly at war for most of the past 70 years, will find it now considered to be a friendless rogue nation. The momentum is with the 180 nation BRICS alliance. They wish to improve the environment and living standards of the planet. Their motto is simple: “make love, not war.”  Ben fulford  feb 26


This link to an article was sent to me by a colleague who fled Poland – she has firsthand knowledge of what it was like to live under the specter of Nazi Germany and SS control this particular article shows how we are moving ever closer to that type of tyranny…unless we stop it in its tracks before it is too late.


It is impossible to intelligently argue with this letter to the EDITOR– MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE

Let’s look at what we have learned from this election:

Twenty-one of 22 incumbent senators were re-elected, and 353 of 373 incumbent members of the House were re-elected. The American people have re-elected 94 percent of the incumbents who were running for re-election to an institution that has an approval rating of about 9 percent. This indicates, as an electorate, we are a nation of idiots. We’re now stuck with the useless, dysfunctional government that we deserve.

You can’t fix stupid…


This following note is extracted from a message from Montague keen, who is addressing his wife from his viewpoint after having passed over…it rings truer than I would like to believe, but have seen it in action especially in the state of my current residence what with the ever more insidious increased fees and taxes for our basic necessities, utilities, gasoline, fuel/heat and even now they are discussing a tax on communicating via e-mail (supposedly to help the postal service!)….

The Cabal is causing so much stress by deliberately increasing the cost of living. They believe that the worry about the cost of living will take your minds off what they are doing and planning. They are making life so difficult, as they are encroaching on every aspect of it: food, air, water; you are under attack from all angles. As if that was not enough, they are secretly bringing in new laws that are barbaric. Sadly, there are foolish people who are only too ready to enforce these laws on their own kind. Do they not realize that, one day, these laws will be used against themselves? Who will be there to stand up for them when their time comes to be removed? Throughout your lives you have been encouraged to trust the wrong people and it is difficult for many of you to see the truth of the situation in which you now find yourselves.

Withdraw from those who have destroyed your world and brought humanity to its knees. They deliberately raise the cost of living to keep you in fear, and thereby, under their control..

It takes courage to expose truth. Are you up to it? You do have a choice. The Dark Ones cannot fight everyone. If all of you came together and stood for truth, then the truth would surely triumph. It is not an easy path, as my dear wife knows only too well. You have to cope with all the blockages that are imposed, but you learn to pick yourself up, again and again, to continue to go forward. The Dark Ones seek out any weakness. They use everything at their disposal to destroy truth. They use implants and sound technology, scalar energy, the djinn, and so much more, to protect themselves from being exposed.

You must keep yourselves grounded and protected and know what you are up against and deal with it.

J Edgar Hoover, said . . .

THE INDIVIDUAL IS HANDICAPPED BY COMING FACE TO FACE WITH A CONSPIRACY SO MONSTROUS HE CANNOT BELIEVE IT EXISTS.

This is exactly what you are having to face. The Cabal was so sure that you would never wake up and see clearly this conspiracy. They attack all those who try to open your eyes to it. David Icke has devoted his life to this cause and there are so many others, all over your world, who urge you to seek the truth.

The truth will set you free. Remember that the truth is there, before you, HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT. Think of this as you journey to enlightenment and freedom. Send love and light to each other. Come together as never before and nothing can stop you.


Lately, there has been an incredible debate raging over the issue of “man made global warming” which has since been re-labeled “climate change”…Although I will agree that as humans we have been responsible for pollution of the air, water, and the environment in general, this argument states clearly that the changes in temperature are more likely caused by cosmic events than human activity.

 

 “When scientific knowledge and applied technology reach a critical level of advancement, without being informed by spiritual truths and guided by moral authority, the current civilization will relinquish its right to continue as it is.”
~ Cosmic Convergence Research Group

Orbital Variance Theory to understand the astrophysical dynamics which underlie the current phase of global warming.

This theory lays bare the simple mathematics and spiral-based nature of the true mechanics of our solar system. All credit for this theory goes to Milutin Milankovitch, a Serbian astronomer, mathematician, astrophysicist and geophysicist, who is “best known for his theory on ice ages relating variations of the Earth’s orbit and long-term climate change now known as Milankovitch cycles.” (www.theenergylibrary.com)

So that the awesome ramifications of the various calculations, key relationships and critical numbers shown below are not overlooked, the Cosmic Convergence Research Group offers the following distillation of the Orbital Variance Theory.

Earth is currently on an orbital trajectory which is bringing it closer to the Sun each day; hence, we see the phenomenon of global warming all around us (It’s 80 degrees in the Southeast USA on January 10, 2013). In fact the Earth’s orbit proceeds according to specific cycles the most significant of which now sees our planet moving progressively closer to the Sun. This tightening orbital pattern is then followed at regular intervals by the Earth moving progressively away from the Sun. The length of a full cycle is 172,800 years which contains a 84,600 year period when the Earth is revolving away from the Sun, as well as an equal 84,600 year period when the Earth is moving toward the Sun. Quite interestingly, a single day has 84,600 seconds.

Whereas the longest year is calculated at 366.75 days when the Earth has reached its furthest point from the Sun, the shortest is pegged at 363.61 days when the Earth is at its closest point. Our current year length is 365.18 days and shortening annually as the planet approaches the ‘middle’ of the present contracting cycle, which essentially marks the end of the most recent long-term ice age. Which is precisely why the sea levels are rising as the polar ice caps melt, glaciers are shrinking at meteoric rates, and massive icebergs are breaking off on a regular basis. As the years continue to shorten, this blue orb will continue to move closer to the Sun until it reaches a point of reversal marking the beginning of the next 84,600 year phase in which the Earth moves progressively further away from the Sun.

This final article, which was written by Mike Bundrant who is co-founder of the iNLP Center and host of Mental Health Exposed, a Natural News Radio program, discusses the difficulty in reaching those that you care about and wish to keep informed – why is it so difficult to get through the programming… My own take on this is that people have been dumbed down.  Their bodies have been poisoned and have become compromised by genetically modified organisms in the food supply, toxins in the air, fluoride in the water supply, mercury and other toxic elements in vaccines, they have been “programmed by the education system, entertainment and the mass media, and they have become incapable of seeing the truth when it slaps them in the face. 

Approaching the existential cliff: 17 denial statements made by the sleeping masses

by Mike Bundrant

(NaturalNews) People who are awake these days have reason to be gravely concerned. Although there may still hope to be had, there are sobering signs of a looming "existential cliff." The existential cliff is the point at which the human race cannot recover from damage done by the human race - or its elitist power structure.



Patch Adams, MD, once told me that the existential cliff is around 2025. I don't know where he got his info, but he claimed he'd read 1500 books along the way to that conclusion (I hope my memory serves me correctly here.)

Let's get the lay of the land:

The food supply: largely poisoned

The
water supply: largely poisoned

The
oceans: poisoned

Modern
medicine: more poison

Modern mental health: see modern medicine

Psychiatry: brain fryers

Government: the entity promoting the poison

The environment: poisoned

Modern
money: deflated

Modern
education: turns out sheeple

Modern
corporations: prey upon sheeple

Modern
news: hypnotizes the sheeple

Human intelligence: This is where it gets interesting. It seems that in spite of being highly intelligent beings (compared to the animal kingdom) capable of analyzing and solving complex problems, we have not evolved (or are not blessed) enough to see the simple truth, even when it coldly slaps us in the face, repeatedly!

In other words, we are busy solving problems that have little to do with our real problems!

The mechanism that keeps us from recognizing the cold slap is denial. When you point out the truth to a sleepy one, you often get this kind of response:

1. I am sure "they" know what they are doing.

2. It's out of my control. All I can do is live my life.

3. We're all screwed anyway, so let's have a beer.

4. I have problems of my own to worry about.

5. It wouldn't be possible to fool everyone.

6. People who believe in conspiracies are kooks.

7. It's the news! People don't make up news.

8. Doctors go to medical school, so they know more about health than I do.

9. Alternative medicine? My doctor said to avoid that.

10. Our society is too advanced to collapse.

11. The
people in charge will always find a way to avoid a real catastrophe.

12. Who has time to worry about what's going on in the world?

13. Things always work out for the best.

14. Who am I to do anything?

15. I'm too busy.

16. Oh, yeah, we've got some real problems, don't we? (Then turn back to the episode of "reality TV.")

17. This is what God intended (Did God also intend you to sit back and watch it while doing nothing?)

(18. Add one you've heard in the comments).

Getting past the oh-so-frustrating (to the awake ones) denial requires more than intellectual awareness. It also requires emotional strength and this is where most people fall down.

Acknowledging the truth about the existential cliff means considering the stark reality that we are going to die. You, your children and loved ones, your friends and family - everyone - will lose their very lives.

To add unimaginable insult to injury, this is all happening because of the people who are supposed to be leading us toward peace and prosperity (government and business leaders).

A gut-level understanding of this is very, very painful. So, most people stick with beer and pizza to bloat the pain away.

Regardless, the gig seems to be up. The existential cliff is happening in a time when there are no new lands to conquer, no new civilizations to exploit, no new people to enslave, with the Earth itself hanging in the balance.

What can you do?

1. Stop the denial. Stop making excuses for people who are compromising your life and the life of your children.

2. Build emotional strength. Learn to stand on your own if need be. In other words, work toward NOT needing the approval of other people (especially the sleeping ones. Seriously. Think about it!)

3. Share the truth. That's it! One of the best places to do that is the Internet. Share articles from Natural News and other great, truthful sites. Build your own site. Tell the truth and promote it online as best you can.

I weep for our ignorant passivity.
